Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Hao Taichang's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Fire Crow Senior, I have already said what needs to be said. Don't make a mistake!"

Daoist Fire Crow waved his hand, and the black iron gourd hovered in the air, shining with purple light. The large gourd mouth pointed grimly at Hao Taichang, and he questioned, "Do you want to stop me?"

Hao Taichang felt stiff all over as the gourd mouth pointed at him, his hair standing on end, as if he were being stared at by some ferocious beast, and he couldn't speak for a long time.

You Fangming, who was standing beside him, grabbed his spirit beast bag with one hand and stroked his storage bracelet with the other, and said sternly, "Fire Crow Senior, do you dare to attack? You are walking down a dead end. Once you take this step, there is no turning back!"

Daoist Fire Crow waved his hand, and the gourd turned its round mouth to point at You Fangming again, "Do you also want to stop me?"

You Fangming's aura stagnated, and he couldn't help but take two steps back, his face turning ugly.

Taking this opportunity, Hao Taichang sacrificed his natal magic weapon, the Five-Colored Flowing Fire Fan, and suspended it above his head, ready to strike. As a dignified Lieyangzi of the Qianyang Sect, how could he be intimidated by a rogue Core Formation cultivator?

Seeing this, You Fangming also took out his natal magic weapon, the Jade Spirit-Attracting Flute, and stimulated it with mana to create glittering points of light, preparing to cooperate with Hao Taichang to launch a surprise attack.

Affected by the auras of the two, Daoist Fire Crow continuously cast dozens of spells. The black iron gourd shone brightly with purple light. With two "poof" sounds, it spat out two bright red, five-zhang fire crows, which pounced towards the two.

Hao Taichang gave a light shout, and rotated the Five-Colored Flowing Fire Fan in the air, shooting out clusters of flames at the fire crows. However, these fire crows were condensed from Myriad Beast True Fire, which was of a much higher level than the fire in his fan. They immediately opened their mouths and swallowed the flying flames, eating as much as came.

Hao Taichang was about to use a spell to detonate the swallowed flames, but found that once these flames were swallowed, the spiritual mark within them disappeared. He immediately changed his move, turning to fanning, creating a flowing fire wind, and crashed into the fire crow, intending to roll it away.

The fire crow let out a sharp cry, stretched out its dark red beak, pecked at the flowing fire wind, and shattered it. It then took the opportunity to peck at the Five-Colored Flowing Fire Fan.

On the other side, You Fangming controlled the Jade Spirit-Attracting Flute, leading a dozen red-scaled giant pythons from a spirit beast bag to besiege Daoist Fire Crow's true body, while he rode his flying sword to avoid the fire crow's pursuit.

Daoist Fire Crow pointed at the gourd, and the gourd turned its mouth, sucking at the giant pythons. It sucked all the dozen long worms into the gourd without leaving one behind, refining them into Myriad Beast True Fire.

You Fangming still had several spirit beast bags, containing no less than a hundred various giant pythons. Seeing how powerful Daoist Fire Crow's black iron gourd was, how could he be willing to release them? He immediately slipped away, stepping on his escape light and fleeing quickly.

"Daoist Hao, hold on for a moment, I'll go call for reinforcements!"

Hao Taichang was nervously controlling the Five-Colored Flowing Fire Fan to deal with the fire crow, and his face darkened when he heard this. He almost cursed out loud. Running away was one thing, but saying he was going to call for reinforcements was just provoking Daoist Fire Crow to kill him! A group of cowardly people hiding behind demonic beasts, neither yin nor yang, were definitely not good people!

However, Daoist Fire Crow's strength really surprised him. This kind of power was not much different from the sect leader. Where did a mere rogue cultivator get such a powerful technique! He originally thought that Daoist Fire Crow only achieved one death and two injuries when dealing with Shao Fengyang and the other two because Daoist Fire Crow's strength was limited. Now he knew that he was simply showing mercy, otherwise none of the three would have been able to escape.

He knew that if he continued to fight, there would definitely be no good outcome. At best, he would lose face, and at worst, his magic weapon would be damaged and his cultivation would be greatly reduced. However, he had spoken too confidently beforehand, and he didn't have You Fangming's shamelessness, so he was in a dilemma and could only persevere.

Yin Changshu, who was watching the battle from the side, was also secretly shocked by Daoist Fire Crow's strength. According to his true thoughts, of course, he wanted Daoist Fire Crow to kill Hao Taichang in a fit of anger, completely standing on the opposite side of the Five Sects, so that he could calmly subdue him and make him work for the Star Moon Sect.

However, although the Star Moon Sect and the other five sects had their open and secret struggles, they were still under the banner of the Six Sect Alliance. Watching someone being killed would probably cause a huge uproar, which would be detrimental to the overall situation of the sect.

He immediately took two steps forward and said loudly, "Daoist Fire Crow, please show mercy. You only want to send your junior into the Immortal City. Now that no one is stopping you, why not put away your magic weapon and hurry up and take care of your business, so as not to cause any further incidents!"

Daoist Fire Crow heard this, glared, stared at Hao Taichang, and asked, "Do you still want to stop me?"

Hao Taichang had a dark face, his lips were tightly closed, and he remained silent.

Daoist Fire Crow snorted heavily, and with a wave of his hand, the black iron gourd shrank, and the two fire crows circling in the sky were taken back.

Hao Taichang didn't say a word, started his escape light, turned around and left. Several Foundation Establishment cultivators who were hiding behind to watch the battle hurriedly started their flying swords to chase after him, but they were far behind.

Yin Changshu squinted his small eyes, smiled, and cupped his hands, saying, "Senior has good supernatural powers, easily breaking through their two blockades. Let me lead the way for Senior and go to the Six Mountains Immortal City immediately."

Thus, Yin Changshu, who was obese and had a smiling face, led the way on the side, chatting idly. The three people and one ape sped towards the Immortal City.

Along the way, Yin Changshu didn't mention anything about giving away the token, only talking about allusions, anecdotes, and Immortal City anecdotes, and occasionally asking for advice on cultivation methods and techniques, so it wasn't a cold scene.

Daoist Fire Crow secretly transmitted his voice to Zhang Yuanjing, knowing that he already had a Profound Yin Token, so he also put aside the matter and talked about the profound, looking calm and composed, with an air of confidence.

Before long, a magnificent Immortal City came into view. Among the overlapping mountains, under the shroud of clouds and mist, was vaguely the outline of a city with a radius of thirty to forty miles. The surrounding roads were impassable, all deep forests, cliffs, miasma, and poisonous fog. Only those who passed the Taoist method could reach this place.

Reaching the vicinity of a hundred miles, through the rising mist between the mountains, you could see ten thousand buildings and thousands of exquisite pavilions in the city, with crisscrossing streets and the flow of people and beasts, a myriad of phenomena. Such an Immortal City must have a guardian formation, and cannot be entered and exited at will. In mid-air, cultivators flew back and forth on their swords, all entering and exiting from the East and West city gates.

"The Immortal City usually opens all four gates, but now, in extraordinary times, only the East Xu and West Hui gates are open, while the North Xuan and South Ji gates are temporarily closed. Daoist Fire Crow, let's enter the city from the East Xu Gate." Yin Changshu's eyes flashed with a strange color, pointing to a round archway shaped like the sun.

Daoist Fire Crow nodded: "I have always come from the East, and I am used to the East Xu Gate."

The group landed their swords and slowly approached the East Xu Gate. The low-level cultivators along the way saw two Core Formation cultivators and gave way, those who knew Yin Changshu quickly bowed and saluted, raising their voices to greet him. Yin Changshu nodded in a friendly manner, without the slightest impatience. This cultivation of composure was admired by Zhang Yuanjing.

However, as the city gate came into view, several people walked out of it, lining up in front of the archway, immediately causing a commotion.

The dozens of cultivators who were entering the city were all frightened and scattered, standing several miles away, either in shock and doubt, or lost in thought, or whispering to each other.

Daoist Fire Crow paused slightly and glanced at Yin Changshu. Yin Changshu still had a kind smile on his round face, but a few traces of anger were revealed in his eyes.

Seeing Daoist Fire Crow looking over, he immediately said in a low voice: "I have received intelligence from my disciple that I have asked my disciples to invite Senior Brother Hou Zhihuan!"

"Elder Hou Zhihuan?" Daoist Fire Crow's face showed surprise, and he said in surprise, "Even Elder Hou has come out of the mountain!"

His doubts became more and more serious. The Star Moon Sect had clearly sent out even late-stage Core Formation elders, so why were they so apprehensive and repeatedly tolerated in the struggle with the Five Sects.

Yin Changshu said meaningfully: "To protect the Foundation Establishment cultivators with the Profound Yin Token, my Star Moon Sect has sent many people this time. Senior Brother Hou is leading the team, and there are also two mid-stage Core Formation and two early-stage Core Formation junior brothers."

Daoist Fire Crow glanced at him and immediately understood his plan. Obviously, he wanted to negotiate a good deal before he would give up a Profound Yin Token. He immediately laughed: "With so many Core Formation cultivators protecting them, it seems that the city is safe enough. This time, like in the past, there is also a special pavilion, right?"

Yin Changshu was surprised to see Daoist Fire Crow change the subject, but he still said calmly on the surface: "That's right, Senior Brother Hou is sitting in the pavilion. Currently, there are already forty-seven Foundation Establishment cultivators holding the Profound Yin Token staying there. In another half a year, my sect's Trans-Domain Flying Boat will come to pick them up."

As he spoke, he reached a hundred zhang in front of the city gate. In front of him were five Core Formation cultivators, blocking the entrance with gloomy faces. Hao Taichang and You Fangming were both among them.

There was another person whom Zhang Yuanjing also recognized, who was Guan Yinglong, a Core Formation cultivator from the Crimson Blood Valley. This person's eyes flashed across his face without any fluctuation, as if he didn't know him at all.

In the middle was a big man, looking thirty years old, seven chi tall, with a broad face and deep eyes, carrying a giant sword on his back that dragged on the ground, staring at Daoist Fire Crow with bright eyes.

"Daoist Fire Crow, I haven't seen you for a hundred years. I didn't expect you to be old and strong, breaking through the bottleneck and entering the late stage. You have taken it to the next level. You are truly a model for us!"

Daoist Fire Crow cupped his hands and laughed: "So it's Elder Tu of the Heavy Sword Sect. I haven't seen you for a hundred years, your demeanor is still the same!"

The seven-chi man sighed: "How can I compare to you, who have gained a new realm and looked down on the heroes. I am already old, and the road ahead is difficult to cross, like a clay pot head or bones in a grave! But since you have entered the late stage, you still have nearly a hundred years to roam freely. Why bother wading through this muddy water!"

Daoist Fire Crow said: "I am just sending a junior into the city, and I am not wading through any muddy water!"

The seven-chi man said: "You must know that if there is no Profound Yin Token, the Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivators who enter this city are just seeking their own death. I think Daoist Yin has already given you a token, but this one does not count."

Yin Changshu frowned and asked: "Why doesn't it count?"

The seven-chi man said expressionlessly: "Since Daoist Hao testified that this person is a wanted criminal of his Qianyang Sect, how can he be granted a token and given a chance! The rules of the Six Sect Alliance must still be followed, right? Does Daoist Yin want to openly shield the enemy of the Six Sects?"

Yin Changshu argued: "That's just Daoist Hao's one-sided statement. If everyone is like this, how can we gain trust? How can our Six Sects recruit rogue cultivators to enter the cave to collect grass in the future! Without enough Profound Yin Grass, the Enlightenment Pills of each sect will not be available!"

The seven-chi man chuckled: "Let's talk about the future later. The Six Sects are united against the enemy, and their qi is connected. Is the testimony of Core Formation cultivators not enough?"

Yin Changshu said angrily: "My Star Moon Sect does not agree!"

The seven-chi man said: "There is another way to give him the Profound Yin Token, but the number of disciples of your sect entering the Profound Yin Cave must be reduced by three!"

Yin Changshu's fat face turned red: "Impossible!"

The seven-chi man snorted lightly, and said sarcastically: "Can Daoist Yin make the decision? Do you want to ask your sect's Elder Hou!"

Yin Changshu was about to speak, but a vigorous voice transmitted into his ears: "Junior Brother Yin, there is no need to argue, let Fire Crow take that junior away!" His face changed, he swallowed the words that had reached his lips, stared at the seven-chi man, and remained silent.

The seven-chi man observed his expression and knew the situation, and immediately looked at Daoist Fire Crow: "Daoist Fire Crow, it seems that the Star Moon Sect's Profound Yin Token cannot be issued. Do you still want to enter the city?"

Daoist Fire Crow laughed: "I have traveled millions of miles, and I am already at the city gate. Why not enter!"

Suspicion appeared on the seven-chi man's face: "Do you have a token?"

Daoist Fire Crow laughed: "Of course. If I didn't have a token, what would I be doing here!"

He immediately turned back and nodded to Zhang Yuanjing. Zhang Yuanjing took out an oval black iron token and handed it to him.

Daoist Fire Crow raised the token, slowly rotated it, and laughed: "Everyone, take a look, is it fake!"

The seven-chi man's eyes were sharp, and he immediately saw the texture, style, and numbers on the token. He immediately turned to Guan Yinglong and asked: "Daoist Guan, I remember that when I distributed the tokens, your sect's number was thirty-one to forty?"

Guan Yinglong stared at Daoist Fire Crow's dark token, and said solemnly: "That's right. Number thirty-three was given to the strongest Foundation Establishment Perfection of my sect, a senior brother of mine, Daoist Ling Jianzi. However, until now, he has not appeared in the Immortal City!"

The seven-chi man's breathing was slightly rushed, and his face was a little unkind: "Since he is a Foundation Establishment disciple of your sect, why didn't he come with you!"

Guan Yinglong said helplessly: "He has already left the sect and established his own sect, so naturally he came alone."

The seven-chi man said angrily: "Left the sect and established his own sect? How did your sect give the Profound Yin Token to this person! Is he still considered a disciple of your sect!"

Guan Yinglong hesitated: "It can be considered. The technique is the true inheritance of the valley."

The seven-chi man slandered in his heart: Even if he established his own sect, don't say it on the spot. Although the Star Cloud Sect has issued an announcement that as long as they hold the Profound Yin Token, regardless of their origin, they can enter the cave. However, now the situation has changed. If they are forced to do so, the Star Moon Sect will not give in. Now that they said they established their own sect, how can they be punished in the name of the Six Sects?

Sure enough, Yin Changshu immediately interjected: "Since the Crimson Blood Valley gave the token to others, this token has nothing to do with its sect. Daoist Fire Crow, I will take your junior into the city."

Daoist Fire Crow was stunned: "I can't enter the city?"

Yin Changshu nodded: "In extraordinary times, the rules set by the Six Sects are that only Core Formation cultivators of the Six Sects can enter the city. This order will end after the Profound Yin Cave is opened. You can wait another half a year!"

Zhang Yuanjing stepped forward, handed the porcelain bottle containing five middle-grade Benefit Spirit Pills to Daoist Fire Crow, and then bowed and saluted: "Thank you Senior for escorting me all the way, please take care, Senior!"

Zhang Yuanjing saw the dangers along the way. At this time, Daoist Fire Crow had deeply offended the Five Sects, and the consequences were unpredictable. However, surrounded by enemies, he could not say much, so he had to express his feelings with a few Benefit Spirit Pills.

Taoist Fire Crow didn't stand on ceremony, accepting the pill and saying via voice transmission, "This old Taoist will first return to Mount Qiong to make some arrangements, and then lead Brother Ape to wait below Mount Xuanyin. This trip to Xuanyin is unusually treacherous. After you come out of the Xuanyin Cave and exchange for the Enlightenment Pill, contact me with the voice transmission jade, and Brother Ape and I will come to meet you."

Zhang Yuanjing nodded and used his divine sense to tell Ape Thirteen to follow Taoist Fire Crow's instructions and obey his commands in everything.

Yin Changshu smiled warmly, "This young friend, please!"

Zhang Yuanjing quickly cupped his hands in salute, "Thank you, Senior!"

Thus, amidst the farewell gazes of Taoist Fire Crow and Ape Thirteen, and the varied expressions of the five Core Formation cultivators from the five factions, the two quickly passed through the archway and entered the long-renowned Six Peaks Immortal City.
