Episode 130

  On the top of Mount Wanxian, newly formed from the primordial chaos.

  Peal of thunder and phoenix cry face each other.

  "Fengming Fairy has arrived in person! I pay my respects. But how did Fengming Fairy also come?"

  "Hum! Isn't Fellow Thunderbolt also here? Could it be that you've come and I'm not allowed to?"

  "How dare I! Those who enter this abyss are all appointed by Heaven's noble decree! You and I are fellow travelers!"

  "I was sent here by my master's order on official business. What Heavenly Lord, I won't follow his orders!"

  "Haha! The sects that entered the Abyss all have secret orders and rules to follow, the words of the Phoenix Fairy are truly reasonable! In these years, what benefits has the Heavenly Lord ever given us? On the contrary, our ten major sects have been offering tributes year after year! Now that there's a benefit to be gained, they're fighting for it with all their might, how shameless!"

  The elder of Baiqiao Gate happened to be on the top at this time, and upon hearing these words, he praised them highly. All the cultivators on the mountain top were present, and they all spoke out one after another.

  "This place is the old site of our Yi Xiu Gate, and all the precious treasures in the depths belong to our Yi Xiu Gate. Now, our Old Ancestor has spoken, and the ten gates will jointly manage Feng Cheng's reins. However, no other sects can move even a single hair of the things in the depths! Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!"

  "Hum! Although Elder Tang's kung fu is the highest among our ten people, does he want to bully us nine just because of this?"

  "You! You all! You!......"

  "Cough! Cough!......"

  Yi Xiu slowly coughed a few times and said:

  "It's reasonable to say that Elder Tang's words are also reasonable, but the situation is different now, and this matter can't be mentioned again! Why? When we entered the Abyss, Heaven's Respectful Lord said that this place was perilous, and we already knew it. Entering the Abyss means certain death. They might have already considered us dead! As dead people, of course, we can do as we please here, only then can we make up for our sacrifice in entering the Abyss! Even if you're from the Easy Repair Gate, Elder Tang, your sect clearly knows the danger of this place, and yet they still sent you in, didn't they? They never considered you a priority! The moment we entered the Abyss was when we left the sect. From then on, life and death are up to us! Even if we obtained treasures or collected rare objects, those would be things we deserve! Who dares to say 'no'?"

  "Old Master Kong's words are indeed correct! Your Taoist and Confucian merits are profound! Brother Kong Xian's talents are truly exceptional! Haha..."

  "You, you and others... Alas! Things have come to this, I have nothing more to say! Go find your own opportunities!"

  Yi Xiu Men Tang Chang Lao sighed.

  "Right, Fengming Fairy, what just flew away from here, can you see clearly?"

  "Brother Ben Lei is such a great figure! Even you don't have the ability to see through Qing, how dare I say whether I can see through her or not?"

  "Fengming Xianzi, your progress in cultivation is indeed remarkable among the ten sects! Now you have even achieved a major breakthrough in your practice, and your skills are almost on par with your master's. Truly impressive!"

  "Indeed! Our old eyes are dim and we arrived at the mountain top too late, it's really unclear. Please inform us a bit more!"

  "This... I seem to think it's like Feng Cheng's divine body! However, its splendor is not quite like that. Moreover, Feng Cheng hasn't even succeeded in refining his physical body, how could he possibly condense a divine spirit like this?"

  "Is it? The body of a divine being is gloomy and stern, where would there be such a magnificent appearance?"

  "Absolutely! Absolutely! That's how I recognize the body of a god, and I too was once ignorant!"

  "Hmph! This matter isn't to be discussed here! That Feng Cheng's physique still has a thread of life, where would he have the spirit to recognize? It must be that he has already given birth to a spiritual artifact or even a divine artifact! Only this kind of treasure can emit five-colored divine light!"

  "Fairy artifact? Divine artifact?"

  "Immortal... Immortal artifact? Can Elder Kong's words be trusted?"

  "That's probably it!"

  "Heavens! A sacred artifact! Or perhaps a divine one! Whoever obtains it can go anywhere in the world!"

  At this point, several people showed a faintly discernible joy, mixed with a look of horror. A fairy artifact or even a divine artifact! Such treasures are all legendary tales in myths and legends! How could people not feel a sense of unease?

  "However, Tianzun has an order, we must first find a safe place to put the Array Core Jade Plate, and then..."

  "What a heavy Nucleus Jade Disc! Humph, could it be even heavier than sacred artifacts or divine artifacts?"

  "Gentlemen, when we enter the abyss, Heaven will show its power, and we cannot act on our own, or else there may be great danger!"

  "What great danger? Hehehe...... Brother is too cautious. Let's not mention that our ten people's magical powers are still passable, even if there really is a great danger, do we want to give up this opportunity? Since ancient times, the way to wealth and nobility has been sought in danger! Everyone, what we should be worried about is after we succeed, who will this thing belong to."

  Taihe Men Kung Lao laughed and said.

  "This... is indeed difficult!"

  "Kong Lao has worried too much! The treasure will naturally go to those with virtue, no need for discussion!"

  "What is virtue?"

  "Some think that what they get into their hands must be a virtue!"

  "Haha, fellow Taoist, you're thinking this way... haha."

  "What's the point? Everyone is doing their best and using their own methods anyway?"

  "Exactly!"

  "What's the use of escaping this abyss if the troubles of the great array are still unresolved?"

  "I think it's better to take the immortal treasure first, and then resolve the crisis of the great array. Why? Everyone knows that the treasure has appeared in the world, if I go to stabilize the array core, others will go to find the treasure, won't they......"

  "Roar."

  Yi Xiu shouted loudly and descended from the mountain peak, heading straight to the southeast towards the Xuanbao's lair.

  The ten cultivators stood up, one after another, and headed south. The restrictive power in this area was extremely strong, and all the cultivators could not use their flying techniques or drive their law clouds, but instead walked on foot like ordinary people. As they walked, the ten cultivators gradually split into three groups. One group consisted of Yi Xiu Men, Qing Yuan Men, Tai He Men, and Bai Qiao Men, while another group consisted of Hei Shui Gu, Yun Xiao Dian, and Sheng Jian Shan Zhuang. The third group consisted of Hai Tian Ge, You Ming Tang, and Hua Xi Guan. These three groups walked forward in a triangular formation.

  And then, the insufficient recognition of the divine position, the sea of consciousness suddenly became turbulent like a mountain collapse, its momentum made the insufficient heart shocked and unknown. Hurriedly sat down on the ground, silently reciting the heart mantra. After waiting for the sea of consciousness to calm down slightly, the insufficient quickly returned his spirit to the sea of consciousness, and with one glance, he was shocked and tongue-tied. That originally seemed like a desolate land boundary, the vast expanse was actually the sea transformed by the divine spirit. The mountains and valleys were all submerged in the sea, leaving only a giant peak above the water's surface, forming a solitary island. Above the sea of consciousness, the sky was clear and bright, with the sun shining high. In the center of the day, there was a person like a god, residing on top of a five-colored sacred lotus flower, with his back against the slowly rotating great wheel of the sun's law. His shadow was resplendent, his dignified appearance solemn, reflecting the light of the great day onto the sea of consciousness.

  It was astonishing to see that the water in the sea of consciousness seemed like a real object, and with the method of spiritualizing objects, it transformed into two hands scooping up a handful of clear water, cool and soft.

  "This is indeed a certain family's true sea of knowledge; I wonder what abilities this sea possesses?"

  Insufficient heart moves, and a ripple of water bursts out from the sea of consciousness, transforming into a palm that slaps forward onto a small hill. With a loud rumble, the small hill is reduced to dust and powder, sending clouds of dirt flying in all directions, filling the air with a deafening din.

  "Ah yeah! So mighty! Aiyo, no good, the whole body is weak and limp, like it's all fallen apart. Could it be that just this one move has exhausted a certain household's spiritual energy?"

  Insufficient paralysis collapsed to the ground, just wide open mouth, panting.

  "My one move, also has something to look at! Only the consumption of spiritual power is not enough, can't be used. It's just that the spirit and mind are condensed as one, and it's convenient to explore the way. As Qinger said, ordinary cultivation is entering the Tao, the realm of yin and yang combined, and the spirit and mind are only like this. And some people think so, if they know about certain families, they will definitely regard them as demons! Haha..."

  Thinking this way, Insufficiently will put his divine consciousness outside and release it. In the valley below, where he can see, there is nothing left to see. Further away is the dense fog that fills the sea of fog, its restrictive power is unmatched, even if Insufficient's divine consciousness is very strong, it still cannot penetrate. Insufficiently turned around a bit, but had no choice but to turn his back and transform his divine consciousness into nothingness again, quietly operating it out of the valley, sweeping away the place he came from before. He saw that the ghosts and strange objects were floating outside the valley in groups of three or five, searching for food, but Insufficiently didn't notice them at all as he swept past. And then three teams of powerful cultivators really came to this deep pool, carefully tracking him down. Only to see that the three teams of people were cautiously guarding against each other, and within their own team, they were also on guard against each other, Insufficiently couldn't help but sigh deeply.

  "The pursuit of immortality is hindered by nothing but greed and desire! Such precautions are merely for personal gain!"

  He then turned back and thought about it.

  "I'm afraid I'll have to repair and arrange several Daoist methods to assist me, otherwise I fear I won't be able to withstand the pursuit of these ten or so powerful experts!"

  He then looked around and secretly set up an ambush to wait for them.
