Mortal: Fengling Linggen, married Chen Qiaoqian

Yan Yun stopped inside Yumen and looked at the "hill" with sharp eyes.

"Exactly! This mountain was originally grayish white, but after my parents refined part of it, it became what it is today."

Ling Yuling only took a few steps forward and then stopped.

Yan Yun stared at the spot for a long time, then surpassed Ling Yuling and slowly walked towards the mountain.

Ling Yuling also understood her role and stayed where she was quietly.

As the distance got closer, Yan Yun felt the five elements power coming from the mountain becoming stronger and stronger, causing the spiritual energy in his body to become active.

However, as Yan Yun was on guard, this level of Five Elements power could not pose a threat to him. He quickly adjusted his magic spell and safely got through the crisis.

In a moment, he arrived in front of the black hill.

Yan Yun put his hands behind his back and paced around the mountain, his eyes slightly narrowed, with blue light flashing in his eyes from time to time, as if he wanted to see through this Yuanci Mountain.

His Ming and Qing spiritual eyes, which always had magical effects, made him a little disappointed this time.

He poured all his magical power into his eyes, but all he saw was still pitch black. He was unable to penetrate the mountain, let alone study its internal structure.

As for using divine sense to investigate, it is completely useless.

As soon as the divine consciousness came into contact with the mountain, it was forcibly distorted and blocked by the power of the five elements.

Yan Yun slowed down his pace and fell into deep thought. Suddenly, he took a few steps forward and reached out to touch the black mountain lightly.

As a result, the place touched by his five fingers was as warm and smooth as jade, which was completely different from the feeling on the surface.

A hint of surprise appeared on Yan Yun's face!
"Could it be that Master Yan suspects this is fake?"

Ling Yuling asked with a smile from behind.

"Haha, an item that can affect the flow of spiritual energy of a Yuanying stage cultivator, even if it is not the legendary Yuanci Mountain, is probably comparable to that kind of treasure. Why is there a need to fake it?"

Yan Yun withdrew his hand and responded with a faint smile.

"Since Master Yan thinks so, I don't have to worry anymore."

"If I want to cultivate the Yuanci Divine Light, how should I deal with this mountain?"

“Unless there is a cultivator who has cultivated the Yuanci Divine Light present at this Yuanci Mountain, it is undoubtedly difficult to shake it with one’s own strength.”

"If you want to move this mountain, I'm afraid even if you have profound cultivation, it will be difficult to move far."

"When my father was in the initial stage of cultivating the Yuanci Divine Light, he needed the help of the disciples in the palace to transport this mountain from overseas to the Star Palace."

“However, the whole process took more than ten years.”

"Young Master Yan, why don't you practice this technique in our Xing Palace for a few years, master the first two levels, and then consider moving this mountain."

Ling Yuling's eyes moved, and after a moment, she made this suggestion.

"From what Daoist Fellow Yu Ling said, if we don't practice the Yuanci Divine Light first, we won't be able to move the mountain in front of us. Is the situation really so serious?"

Yan Yun responded with a puzzled expression.

Ling Yuling smiled and replied in a slightly softer tone:
"Haha, I haven't confirmed it for sure."

"Brother Yan has now surpassed my father in the realm of magical power. Perhaps he has other unique skills and may be able to take over this mountain."

"Otherwise, Brother Yan really needs to think carefully about this."

After thinking for a moment, Yan Yun slowly said, "Why not give it a try!"

After saying that, he formed seals with his hands, and cast a green spell towards the inky black mountain in front of him.

A green light flashed and disappeared, and just as the magic formula was about to merge into the mountain, a "bang" sound suddenly occurred.

Just a few inches away from the mountain wall, there was a violent distortion and explosion, which turned into countless points of blue-gray light and disappeared without a trace.

Yan Yun frowned, his ten fingers turned quickly, and various colorful spells popped out continuously.

However, no matter what spell is used, the outcome is always the same.

Whenever these spells approached Yuanci Mountain, they would explode and could not get any closer.

Yan Yun's expression gradually became serious, and he reached out to touch the cold stone wall again.

This time he did not withdraw his hand quickly. Instead, he whispered a spell. Then, a spiritual light flashed in his palm, and he wanted to force a spell into the mountain.

However, the moment the magic formula left his palm, Yan Yun felt an invisible powerful force flowing towards him along the magic formula.

The spiritual power that had been suppressed in the body suddenly broke out and poured into the mountain madly.

Yan Yun's face changed drastically and he let out a low roar. The protective light shield instantly burst into a dazzling golden light. At the same time, his other hand slapped the arm on the mountain.

His body trembled and he staggered back a few steps, finally breaking free from the powerful attraction of the mountain wall.

Yan Yun then took a deep breath and his expression relaxed slightly.

Fortunately, he was Yan Yun. If he was replaced by another cultivator in the early or middle stage of the Nascent Soul, this would probably result in a serious loss of mana.

"Brother Yan, are you safe and sound?" Ling Yuling was shocked when she saw this scene, and hurriedly asked Yan Yun with concern.

"It's not a big deal! This mountain is really weird."

"From this it seems that the usual collection methods are unlikely to be effective here. It may take some time to conquer this mountain."

"If we can't collect it smoothly, then we can discuss it again."

Yan Yun shook his head and answered firmly.

"Of course!"

“However, although Brother Yan has profound magical powers, he should not stay here for too long without practicing the Yuanci Divine Light.”

"From what I have seen, you can only stay for three or four days at most. If you exceed this period, Brother Yan may face the risk of damage to his magic power."

"Three days later, I will come here again to meet Brother Yan."

Ling Yuling seemed to have no objection to this matter, and instead reminded Yan Yun.

Yan Yun nodded slightly, indicating that he understood her suggestion.

So, Ling Yuling handed the jade token in her hand to Yan Yun, bowed respectfully, and turned to leave.

After Ling Yulin's figure disappeared in Yumen, Yan Yun held the jade token without hesitation and waved it gently towards Yumen.

Magic power was injected into it, and suddenly a large number of runes flew out from the card and sank into the Jade Gate again.

With a buzzing sound, the Jade Gate closed automatically.

After completing this series of operations, Yan Yun did not immediately start studying Yuanci Mountain.

Instead, he first released his spiritual sense and conducted a detailed exploration of the entire cave area.

After confirming that everything was correct, he calmly took out a stack of battle flags from his storage bag and threw them to various corners. In an instant, more than ten brilliant lights disappeared deep underground.

Immediately afterwards, balls of yellow mist gushed out from underground and quickly enveloped the entire cave.

Yan Yun finally put aside his worries at this moment and refocused his attention on the hill in front of him.

Speaking of magic weapons made from hills, this was not the first time he had seen one.

Even in the past years, he also possessed an ancient magic weapon called "Qianchongshan", whose power could not be ignored.

However, the "Thousand Mountains" only resembles a mountain in appearance, and is actually no different from an ordinary magic weapon.

It was far less thorny than the hill in front of him, which was like a hedgehog, leaving him helpless for a moment.

"Haha, I think this little girl seems to be quite enthusiastic about your practice of Yuanci Divine Light?"

Suddenly, a ball of green light flew out from his sleeves and then transformed into a shadow that looked like a boy.

This is the human form of the sacred beast Tianlan!
"I have also noticed this. Palace Master Ling is indeed looking forward to my immediate cultivation of the Yuanci Divine Light."

"As far as I can remember, the process of cultivating the Yuanci Divine Light is quite difficult. This technique has been circulating in the Chaos Star Sea for a long time. Only the Twin Saints of the Heavenly Stars can truly cultivate it successfully after obtaining the Yuanci Mountain."

"If I want to practice this technique now, I'm afraid I must rely on the power of this mountain to achieve it."

“However, if I do this, I’m afraid that I will end up like the Twin Saints of the Heavenly Stars. From now on, my body’s spiritual power will be closely connected to the five elements of this mountain, and it will be difficult for me to leave the vicinity of this mountain easily.”

Yan Yun explained calmly.

"I see. So, did this little girl deliberately frame you?" the boy asked casually.

"It's not entirely true that it was a set-up."

“However, there is a high possibility that I will get into trouble and be forced to stay in Tianxing City permanently and have to practice in the Star Palace.”

"Otherwise, do you think that the Twin Saints of Heavenly Stars would really be so generous that they would selflessly give me the secret technique to break through the Spiritual Transformation Stage as soon as they saw me?"

"Are the three conditions of assistance I casually proposed enough to achieve this goal?"

"Moreover, although they offer multiple paths to break through the Spiritual Transformation Stage, if one is slightly distracted, one will only be able to choose the path of cultivating the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light, because only this path has the greatest possibility."

"Isn't this a carefully arranged trap to lure me into it?"

Yan Yun stared at the black hill with a firm and cold look in his eyes, but a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Then, isn't it too risky for these two seniors to act like this? If you find out, won't you be furious?" The boy frowned slightly.

“As long as I am determined to break through to the Spiritual Transformation Stage, even if I know this is a conspiracy, I am afraid I will have no choice but to go ahead with it.”

"The Twin Saints of the Heavenly Stars adopted an aboveboard strategy. They were convinced that I would take the bait."

“However, if there is a chance to move this mountain away from here before practicing the Yuanci Divine Light, then this situation can be easily resolved.”

“From this, it can be seen that the Twin Saints of Tianxing are full of confidence in the powerful force of Yuanci Mountain.”

"This is understandable. After all, they have been trapped here for hundreds of years after using this mountain to cultivate the Yuanci Divine Light."

"They must have tried various methods but still failed to find a way to crack it. I guess there is nothing I can do about it either."

Yan Yun reached out and gently combed his beard, then sighed helplessly.

“Then why don’t you follow the example of the Twin Saints of the Heavenly Stars and first cultivate the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light without relying on the power of this mountain?”

"After the technique is initially completed, it will no longer be bound by this mountain, and it will be gradually moved to the southern part of the sky?"

The boy rolled his eyes and made this suggestion with a smile on his face.

"Excuse me, do you think I have enough time to practice the Yuanci Divine Light?"

“There is no need to discuss whether I am truly capable of cultivating the Yuanci Divine Light to its ultimate perfection.”

"Even if I can cultivate to the first or second level in a short period of time, when I need to move this mountain, even if I can complete the task instantly."

"But if it can't be put into the storage bag, then I still can't transport it through the teleportation array."

"How is it possible for Yan to fly directly back to Tiannan with this huge mountain range?"

Yan Yun sighed deeply and whispered these words to himself.

"That's true. However, if this situation arises, I can't offer any better advice."

"If I still have the Qiankun Belt that I own in the spirit world, I can directly take this mountain into it."

"But in this world..."

The boy shook his head regretfully.

Yan Yun didn’t know what kind of treasure the so-called Qiankun Belt was, but judging from its properties, it was obviously a space-type magic weapon.

Although he was very surprised, he also understood that this person named Tianlan Beast could not be relied upon.

He realized that this time he would have to figure it out on his own.

Although he hoped to use the Yuanci Mountain to cultivate the Yuanci Divine Light and thus break through to the God Transformation Realm, he was not willing to be controlled by others.

Even if he really decided to practice somewhere for a long time, he would not choose to stay in Tianxing City. Similarly, he did not consider practicing Yuanci Divine Light in Luoyun Sect.

Otherwise, with his reputation in Tiannan, his whereabouts would be leaked sooner or later, and it would likely bring disastrous consequences to the Luoyun Sect, just like what happened to Xinggong.

He had better find a very safe place where he would never be discovered by others, and practice this technique to perfection in one go, leaving no chance for anyone.

However, whether he really wants to practice this technique is still unknown.

He must first use the cold flames of the Five Demons to impact the Spiritualization Stage. If he succeeds by chance, he will naturally not be in a hurry to practice the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light.

Otherwise, no matter how powerful this technique was, he was unwilling to get into trouble.

In any case, he would now put all his efforts into trying to find a clever way to take the mountain into his possession.

If this problem could be solved, he naturally wouldn't have to worry so much.

Thinking this in his mind, Yan Yun temporarily put aside other thoughts, lightly patted the storage bag on his waist, and immediately more than a dozen talismans appeared in his hands.

He waved his hand, and all the talismans shot towards the hill.

This time, all the talismans were safely attached to the mountain without any abnormalities.

When Yan Yun saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel delighted. He quickly made hand gestures and suddenly activated his spiritual sense.

With a loud "boom", dozens of balls of spiritual light exploded on the surface of the mountain, and these forbidden talismans turned into ashes in an instant.

Yan Yun's face became a little gloomy, but he just sighed softly, then turned his palms again, and a stack of magic plates appeared in his hands.

He threw all the magic plates into his mouth. Colorful balls of light slowly rotated around the hill. At the same time, the low and mysterious spell sounded again in the cave.

These dozen or so light balls are surrounding Yuanci Mountain, and their rotation speed is getting faster and faster... (End of this chapter)
