Seeking Immortality in a Bizarre World-Chapter 727 - 721 Heavy Yue Mountain Crystal, Tiger’s Den and Wolf’s Lair_1
The Golden-Winged Peng Bird carried the white Nine-tailed Fox, flying through the vast darkness where coldness and dead silence seemed to be the only hues of the Void.
The assimilating power of the Void in the Immortal Realm was far stronger than in the Lower Realm. Even True Spirit Level Void Wandering could not withstand the erosion of the Void Force.
Jia Ren exerted all his strength to consolidate his Celestial Treasure Immortal Power, slowing the loss of his immortal power.
After journeying for three days, they faintly felt an overwhelming pressure, as if carrying mountains on their backs.
Before them appeared ranges of earth-yellow mountains, forming boundless golden mountain ranges and rivers.
The gravity Jia Ren felt originated from these mountains.
This was no ordinary force; it harbored a potent Power of Laws, enduring the Void’s erosion without diminishing.
This area was merely affected by the aftermath of a battle, yet the force remained undiminished even after one hundred thousand years, preserved to this day.
It was hard to imagine the extent of such formidable power.
Jia Ren wanted to avoid this place and take a detour, but Tu Bai Ling explained, "This is it. All other directions are contaminated with Dao Bizarre Level pollution; even a Taiyi Jade Immortal wouldn’t dare risk the slightest taint."
"Those protected by Immortal Artifacts or possessing powerful physiques will not find it difficult to pass through."
Jia Ren extended his divine sense for a brief probe.
Beyond the earth-yellow region lay not an endless Void, but boundless expanses of black ice flames exuding a bone-chilling cold.
The black ice flames were everywhere, and the Power of Laws within the earth-yellow mountains barely held them at bay.
Merely sensing this aura, a layer of black frost silently coated Jia Ren’s body, nearly freezing him solid.
The Mystical Heavenly Town Immortal Demon Tower Mark between his eyebrows blazed with light. Black light flowed through his body, finally dispelling the freezing cold that had begun to encase him.
Fortunately, they were some distance away and had not come into deep contact with this strange power.
Otherwise, even the power of the Profound Heaven Suppressing Immortal Demon Pagoda would not have been sufficient to remove the contaminating force that had entered his body.
Jia Ren cleared away the bizarre contamination he had acquired, his heart still pounding from the close call.
No wonder Immortals all preferred using Teleportation Arrays to depart rather than crossing the Void directly; traversing it was by no means an easy task.
This exit was the least dangerous; otherwise, Bizarre Immortals wouldn’t be tasked with guarding it.
Even so, it still concealed terrifying risks. The slightest mistake could lead to their demise here.
The two pressed on under the immense pressure, advancing step by step, weaving their way over the yellow mountains to hasten their departure from this region.
"Huh? Heavy Yue Mountain Crystal?!" Tu Bai Ling exclaimed, surprised and delighted, as she looked at the yellow crystals on the mountains.
Jia Ren was also familiar with this item.
This was a superior material for refining High-grade Immortal Artifacts, valued at one million Immortal Jade—even a Taiyi Jade Immortal would be tempted by it.
He hadn’t expected to find such a rare treasure here.
This power had existed for one hundred thousand years, so it wasn’t surprising that a few rare treasures had formed over such a long time.
Tu Bai Ling tried to approach the mountains. However, the closer she got to the earth-yellow mountains, the more terrifying the gravity became.
She hadn’t even gotten close before the gravity crushed her, breaking her bones and causing her to bleed.
A great treasure was right before her, yet she couldn’t retrieve it. She could only sigh in frustration.
"Fellow Daoist, if you have the strength, you should go take the treasure. Don’t leave this treasure mountain empty-handed," she said.
Jia Ren had used up most of his Immortal Artifacts. In the future, he would need many Golden Immortal Techniques and various Immortal Dao Secret Techniques, all requiring treasures and Immortal Jade for exchange.
Faced with such superior immortal materials, he naturally couldn’t miss this opportunity.
"Mountain Giant Ape!"
With a shake, he transformed into a towering, earth-yellow giant ape.
The ape’s fur flowed like liquid, seemingly adapting to the intense gravity.
Soon, the omnipresent gravity no longer pressed down on him, and the pressure vanished.
The Mountain Giant Ape strode towards the mountains. Unobstructed, he effortlessly gathered the Heavy Yue Mountain Crystals.
Acquiring the treasure was far smoother than expected, with no incidents.
Only then did Jia Ren have the leisure to examine the mountains formed by the Power of Laws.
Could he take these things with him?!
Anything imbued with the Power of Laws could be called a great treasure.
What made it precious was that, unlike the Petrification Rule, it hadn’t turned into a Bizarre Demon due to worldly assimilation. What secrets did it hold?
"Fellow Daoist, are you thinking of subduing this?" Tu Bai Ling asked.
"I advise you to abandon that thought immediately!"
"This was left by Daluo Golden Immortal level experts. Every strand of the Power of Laws here contains their will. Touching it rashly will endanger your life."
Each strand of the Power of Laws contains a will?
Is that why it hasn’t been assimilated by heaven and earth?
Jia Ren’s greatest strength was his willingness to heed advice. When it concerned his life, he believed it was better to be safe than sorry.
Along the way, they found three more pieces of Heavy Yue Mountain Crystal and seven pieces of a mid-grade immortal material called Mountain Spirit Heavy Crystal. The haul was quite good.
After flying for three more days, they finally emerged from this mountainous region.
Fortunately, the black ice flames stopped there and hadn’t polluted more areas. Otherwise, they would have had no choice but to turn back.
The two dared not relax their vigilance, proceeding cautiously, afraid of encountering unknown bizarre contaminations.
After traversing the Void for a total of three months, they finally sensed lush flowers and trees. For the two accustomed to darkness, it was like a new life.
"We’ve finally arrived at the Xihua Immortal Domain," Tu Bai Ling said with relief.
Her face was deathly pale, her Demon Immortal power severely drained.
If not for Jia Ren’s help, crossing the Void alone would have been incredibly difficult for her.
Jia Ren was in much better condition. The Heaven and Earth Mountain and Sea Pearl continuously supplied him with Spiritual Power, keeping his Celestial Treasure Immortal Power at its peak.
They entered the Xihua Immortal Domain unimpeded. The expected barrier was nowhere to be found, making the entry far smoother than anticipated.
Once they set foot on solid ground again, they cautiously extended their divine senses. There was no trace of anyone, only dead silence.
"Daoist Jia, I’m heading to the Ancestral Land of the Fox Clan. Are you interested in coming with me?" Tu Bai Ling invited.
"The Fox Clan can ensure your safety, Daoist Jia, and provide cultivation resources."
Tu Bai Ling gazed at Jia Ren, extending the invitation.
"Since we’ve arrived at the Xihua Immortal Domain, let us part ways here."
Jia Ren cupped his hands to Tu Bai Ling, then suddenly transformed into a golden light and vanished.
Tu Bai Ling watched Jia Ren depart, a look of despondency on her face.
Before she could look away, her consciousness blurred, and she fell into a deep sleep.
Jia Ren, who had just vanished, reappeared.
"Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasure Law!"
A vast amount of immortal energy condensed into the Tongming Treasury Mirror. It hovered above Tu Bai Ling’s head, erasing her memories of him.
He and Tu Bai Ling had traveled together, and she had learned many of his secrets.
The Mimicry Phantom Body, the Virtual-level Stone Petrification Oddity, the Phoenix Flame, transformations into several True Spirit forms... 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
If any of this information leaked, it would bring him unimaginable trouble.
Tu Bai Ling was good at keeping secrets, but there was no guarantee others couldn’t find a way to access her memories.
Jia Ren hadn’t grown strong enough yet and didn’t want to take such risks.
Before arriving in the Xihua Immortal Domain, he had deliberately given Tu Bai Ling a spiked Elixir. This was to make her fall asleep so the Tongming Treasury Mirror could erase relevant memories without her noticing.
Erasing a Demon Immortal’s memories with the Tongming Treasury Mirror wasn’t easy. Jia Ren expended considerable effort to erase only her memories from Linding City onwards.
The memories of their first meeting nearly a thousand years ago were beyond his ability to erase.
The memory of their chance encounter wasn’t a major issue.
After Jia Ren finished, he found a hiding spot and quietly waited for Tu Bai Ling to awaken.
He only wanted to erase some of her memories, not to harm her. He certainly didn’t want any accidents to happen while she was unconscious.
After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Tu Bai Ling slowly awoke, her eyes filled with confusion and uncertainty.
"Where am I? Why don’t I have any recent memories?" she wondered.
Unable to recall her recent memories, she frowned in thought for a long time before quickly departing.
Jia Ren waited until Tu Bai Ling had left before departing in the opposite direction.
From now on, the vast ocean is for fish to leap in, and the boundless sky for birds to fly!
His golden wings beat, and he transformed into a streak of Escape Light, flying off to find Cultivators and Immortals to gather information about the Xihua Immortal Domain.
After flying for tens of thousands of miles, he hadn’t seen a single living soul.
Instead, he sensed an incredibly intense Bizarre Qi.
Many places were contaminated by strange powers, and there were bizarrely transformed, unknown Magical Beasts. None of it seemed normal.
Could the Xihua Immortal Domain be in trouble?
The Xihua Immortal Domain in Tu Bai Ling’s memories was fine, but those were old memories. No one knew if something major had happened recently.
Never mind ten thousand years; even a thousand years was enough for drastic changes.
He hadn’t flown far when he hastily stopped his Escape Light. He faintly detected two figures emanating strong Bizarre Qi flying towards him.
More Bizarre Immortals?!
These Bizarre Path Immortals are truly relentless!
Unsure of the situation in the Xihua Immortal Domain, Jia Ren didn’t want to jump out of the frying pan and into the fire.
I’ll capture these two and interrogate them for information.
The Mystical Heavenly Town Immortal Demon Tower Mark emerged on his forehead. He appeared before the two as if by Instantaneous Movement, his fist striking towards them.
The two had no chance to react before their bodies were shattered by Jia Ren’s punch.
Before their shattered flesh could reform, they were sucked into the Profound Heaven Suppressing Immortal Demon Pagoda.
Caught completely off guard by the sudden attack, they were shocked and enraged. As they regenerated their Bizarre Immortal bodies, they searched for their ambusher.
"Fellow Daoists, I’d like to ask about something," Jia Ren appeared before them, greeting them with a radiant smile.
Is this how you ask for information?
"An Immortal?! To think there’s still a fish that slipped through the net!"
The two were both surprised and delighted to see Jia Ren, ready to attack.
But black chains instantly wrapped around them, binding them firmly.
The two Bizarre Immortals struggled, their Power of the Bizarre Principle clashing against the black chains as they tried to break free.
The Xuantian Suppressing Immortal Demon Chains, infused with the Power of Laws, effortlessly annihilated their Bizarre Law.
The black light of the Profound Heaven Suppressing Immortal Demon Pagoda was like a searing hot brand to them. After several failed attempts to escape, their bodies sizzled, emitting foul black smoke.
Fish that slipped through the net?
Hearing their words, Jia Ren felt a sense of foreboding.
"What’s the situation in the Xihua Immortal Domain?! Are there still Immortals and powerful Immortal Path Sects?"
The Bizarre Immortal on the left cackled, his voice like a drake’s, "Xihua Immortal Domain? Heh heh, this place is about to become the territory of the Bizarre Path."
"The Immortal Path is severed! Fellow Daoist, don’t cling to your misguided beliefs. The Bizarre Path is the true way!"
"If you’re smart, let us go. You might still have a chance to live."
The Xihua Immortal Domain is about to fall?
Jia Ren seriously doubted the truth of this information.
He left the Profound Heaven Suppressing Immortal Demon Pagoda, captured another Bizarre Immortal he encountered, and interrogated this one as well.
The Xihua Immortal Domain was engulfed in a massive war. Dao Bizarre and Daluo Golden Immortal level experts were fighting at the core battlefield.
Many True Immortals and Golden Immortals had already fallen, turning it into a meat grinder.
The Xihua Immortal Domain is far more dangerous than I imagined!
Can I still leave the Xihua Immortal Domain now?
