Kryptonian fate deduction, invincibility starts from killing monsters
#309 - Taixuan Immortal Road
The deep voice echoed within the ancestral hall, like a special signal, awakening the other two stone statues as well.
"Junior brother, why have you awakened us?"
"Is it time for the appointed hour?"
The first stone statue to awaken immediately replied, "Two senior brothers, some changes have occurred within the secret realm. The spiritual energy concentration has suddenly decreased quite a bit."
"But there is still a long time before the appointed hour. I suspect that there is a problem with the secret realm, and spiritual energy is leaking. Otherwise, even if the Tai Xuan Treasure Tree were to mature and bear fruit, it would not be possible to absorb so much spiritual energy in such a short period of time."
As soon as this speculation was finished, they suddenly discovered that the spiritual energy concentration of the entire secret realm had decreased significantly again.
Now, the spiritual energy concentration within the Tai Xuan Secret Realm is less than half of what it was before.
"It seems that there is a possibility that a leak has occurred somewhere."
The middle stone statue spoke in a steady voice, decisively saying, "Two junior brothers, please follow this senior brother to perform a ritual and see where the problem lies within the secret realm."
As soon as his words fell, the three stone statues began to tremble slightly, emitting a strange wave.
The middle stone statue chanted incantations, and as dust fell, his hands actually began to move slowly, forming a hand seal in front of him.
In an instant, a misty aura rose within the ancestral hall, constantly changing its shape.
The mist continuously displayed various locations within the secret realm, searching for the source of the spiritual energy leak.
After a moment, the mist dissipated.
The three stone statues fell into silence.
"The secret realm is intact, the spatial structure is stable…"
The words of the middle stone statue were filled with doubt.
If there was no spiritual energy leak, then what was the matter with the changes just now?
Just as they were pondering, a strange wave transmitted over.
The spiritual energy concentration in the air decreased again!
This time, it was even more excessive, as if all the spiritual energy in the world had been swallowed into the belly of a gluttonous beast.
Even the secret room ancestral hall where they were located was affected.
The dozen or so high-quality spirit crystals embedded in the walls to provide lighting had become much dimmer.
This scene made the three stone statues unable to sit still.
Amidst the tremors, a crack even appeared on one of the stone statues.
"Third brother! Calm down!"
The middle stone statue reprimanded, stopping the third brother who was about to fully awaken.
But even though he no longer rampaged, he still said anxiously:
"Eldest brother! Something must have happened within the secret realm. The decrease in spiritual energy concentration will affect the growth of the Tai Xuan Treasure Tree! We must do something!"
"The Tai Xuan Treasure Tree is related to our path to transcendence!"
"The three of us have sealed ourselves here, watching the sect perish, all for the sake of transcending and becoming immortals, isn't it?"
"Now that there is something wrong with the path to immortality, I will risk being discovered by the Candle Dragon to repair the situation!"
Hearing these words, the middle stone statue's brow softened slightly.
He understood that his third junior brother wanted to sacrifice himself to complete their grand plan.
However, he still sternly rebuked, "What are you panicking about! If you rashly break the seal and that Candle Dragon discovers you, do you think the two of us can still escape unscathed?"
Hearing this, the third junior brother's voice stopped, and he deflated, "Then what should we do?"
"Hehe, third brother! Don't panic."
The stone statue on the left gently opened his mouth and laughed, "A small matter, no need to worry too much! Eldest brother and I have already made complete arrangements!"
The third junior brother was stunned for a moment, and quickly said, "Eldest brother, do you have a backup plan?"
The middle stone statue did not directly answer, but just snorted coldly and moved his lips to recite a spell.
The soft murmur penetrated the surrounding walls and passed through countless formations.
It spread to the Tai Xuan Sect ruins, in front of the main hall of the sect.
The square in front of the hall was entirely paved with white jade stone slabs, but at this moment, these stone slabs were broken, with potholes everywhere.
When the Tai Xuan Sect had not yet perished, these stone slabs were all made of spirit crystals, and they had to be replaced every month.
But when the Tai Xuan Sect declined, it no longer had the strength to maintain them.
And in the middle of the white jade square, grew a large tree.
A trunk less than ten feet tall supported a dense canopy.
Hanging under the canopy were ten fruits, crystal clear, like small babies.
The Tai Xuan Treasure Tree!
Legend has it that the Tai Xuan Sect obtained the seeds from a meteorite outside the region and obtained this strange object after cultivation.
This tree matures once every hundred years, and each time it can bear ten fruits.
After a martial artist swallows the mature Tai Xuan fruit, they can break through a small realm out of thin air.
Although it is impossible to break through a large realm, for martial artists after the Star Gathering Realm, every bit of progress is precious.
For example, from the early stage to the middle stage of the Star Gathering Realm, if there are no resources, relying solely on one's own cultivation.
Even if you are in a place with rich spiritual energy like the imperial capital, it will take at least two hundred years.
And those martial artists with sufficient resources do not necessarily mean that their cultivation speed will be very fast.
The speed of absorbing spiritual energy is also a talent.
Some people are born with unobstructed meridians and have a strong ability to control spiritual energy, so the speed of absorbing spiritual energy is faster.
And martial artists with ordinary talents need decades to cultivate.
Therefore, spirit fruits that can help one break through a small realm and save dozens or hundreds of years of time are the common goal of all Star Gathering Realm martial artists who enter the Tai Xuan Secret Realm.
It's just because the time when the fruits mature is often three days after the secret realm is opened.
Therefore, no one had previously fought over the order of entering the secret realm.
At this moment, as the stone statue's murmur passed by, a crack suddenly opened above the Tai Xuan Treasure Tree.
Looking from the crack, one would find dense spirit crystals like mountains.
The Tai Xuan Sect was the undisputed king on this continent back then, and naturally plundered countless resources.
And this special space containing countless spirit crystals was actually just a space specially created by the Tai Xuan Sect back then to facilitate the replacement of floor tiles.
It is equivalent to a small vault.
After the space was opened, countless spirit crystals flowed down like a tide.
The trunk of the Tai Xuan Treasure Tree was directly buried.
Sufficient spiritual energy was absorbed by the treasure tree and sent to the Tai Xuan fruits, making these fruits more and more crystal clear.
Seeing this scene, the third junior brother's voice returned to calm.
"Eldest brother, didn't you say that our things were all snatched away by those rebels? You still have a little treasury?"
The corners of the middle stone statue's mouth twitched slightly, and he ignored him, directly saying:
"Alright, with the spiritual energy supply of these spirit crystals, there is no need to worry too much about the Tai Xuan Dao Tree's problems."
"This time, how many is it?"
His second junior brother said in a deep voice, "It's the seventieth!"
"Seventy…"
The middle stone statue murmured, and directly said, "This time, just release three! Make up the number of Earthly Fiends."
The second junior brother was a little surprised and asked in doubt, "Eldest brother, isn't it a bit risky to do this?"
"We can't care about that much."
The eldest brother's voice was a little erratic, "Although there is still some time before the day we calculated, I have recently always felt uneasy in my heart. Let's push forward the matter of the immortal path as soon as possible!"
