Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Ten days later, a message came from the Hall of Xuan, saying that True Person Tong agreed to Zhang Yuanjing opening another portal on the Xuanyuan Hall's grand formation, but required that Zhang Yuanjing not leave Xuanyuan Hall without permission. If he wanted to go out, he needed to inform the Hall of Xuan.

It also said that the notes of predecessors he needed would be sent to Liuyun Immortal City within three months, and he could send someone to find Yu Tianwan to retrieve them at that time.

Before this, Zhang Yuanjing held another council in the hall, announcing that Fire Crow Daoist would be in charge of the hall's protective formation, and stated that if he was not present, Fire Crow Daoist would act as the hall master, and all matters would be handled by him.

In view of Zhang Yuanjing's ruthless handling of Pei Yuanjian, no one dared to object to this council, and even Ji Zhengying, who was quite arrogant, was much more respectful.

In the following months, Zhang Yuanjing only studied the Stone Driving and Shape Condensing techniques in the Eight Earth Arts in the Zhi Zhi Building, and gained a lot.

On this day, Fire Crow Daoist came to inform him that the portal under the great formation had been opened and could be used at any time.

Zhang Yuanjing then summoned Zheng Yuandu and went to that place together.

The opening of this portal was located on the side of the entrance to the Xuanyuan Realm, sixty feet deep into the ground.

There was originally a cave there, which was one of the several caves specially dug to connect the entrance of the Xuanyuan Realm when the Xuanyuan Hall was built. Although it was not used, it was not filled, and it was originally prepared for excavating secret access tunnels.

The responsibility for guarding this place was Ji Zhengying's. Therefore, when Zhang Yuanjing arrived, he also followed, and his attitude was greatly changed from the first time they met.

The four of them went down to the bottom of the cave. On the earth wall near the inside, there was a circle of gray-white halo, rippling outwards layer by layer, sometimes bright and sometimes dark, faint and imperceptible, but the aura fluctuations were very stable.

"Yuanjing, to enter and exit this place, you need to hold this formation artifact. There is only one of this item, and there is no second one." Fire Crow Daoist took out a jade tablet, its color was orange-yellow, its shape was simple, and it was engraved with cloud patterns, quite ancient.

Zhang Yuanjing took the jade tablet and nodded: "Only make this one first, and we'll talk about it if there is a need in the future."

He then asked: "Can this portal be forcibly broken from the outside in?"

Fire Crow Daoist knew his worries, and smiled: "This portal is very easy to exit from the inside, but if you forcibly enter from the outside, it is the same as attacking the great formation. Of course, there are warning restrictions set inside. If anyone wants to go out from here, the formation hub will react in an instant."

Zhang Yuanjing praised: "Senior independently pondered, and can be called a master in the art of formations. I am very fortunate to have Senior's help!"

Fire Crow Daoist waved his hand and laughed loudly: "This old Daoist's little things are barely satisfactory compared to ordinary rogue cultivators. In your noble sect, it's not enough to see at all!"

Zhang Yuanjing smiled: "Senior is also a member of my Xuantian Sect today. If you have free time in the future, you can read all kinds of formation secrets."

For Fire Crow Daoist, the so-called free time could only be after he achieved the Nascent Soul stage. At this moment, he didn't have enough time to study cultivation techniques, so how could he spare time for the art of formations?

However, Zhang Yuanjing's words undoubtedly contained a promise, and Fire Crow Daoist naturally appreciated it, bowing and thanking him repeatedly.

Zhang Yuanjing turned his head and looked at Zheng Yuandu and Ji Zhengying, and said solemnly: "It is not appropriate to publicize the opening of this portal. Today, I will leave the formation from here and go to the mountain for inspection. When I am away, Fire Crow Senior will temporarily act on behalf of Xuanyuan Hall, and if you two have anything, ask him for instructions. However, my departure must also be kept secret and not disclosed to the outside!"

The two bowed and said in unison: "Your subordinates obey!"

Zhang Yuanjing clasped his fist at Fire Crow Daoist and said: "Senior, thank you for your trouble!"

Fire Crow Daoist smiled: "You don't need to be polite, just go!"

Zhang Yuanjing held the jade tablet and stepped into the halo, and disappeared.

The next moment, he appeared in the soil. Familiar auras gathered from all around, giving him a feeling of being like a fish in water. He used the earth escape technique and headed east.

This time, of course, he didn't plan to go to Liuyun City immediately. However, he also wanted to see how the road was. Especially since he had been in Xuanyuan Hall for several months, the Tianmo Abyss might have received the news and was making arrangements.

Along the way, he was very vigilant, constantly communicating with the Lianyang Umbrella, asking if there were any high-level cultivators nearby. Occasionally encountering Foundation Establishment cultivators from Tianmo Abyss, their level was too low, and he couldn't arouse any interest in fighting.

He remembered his agreement with Luo Yuanhao, and sometimes tracked teams of Tianmo Abyss Foundation Establishment cultivators to find their foothold. He also discovered Core Formation cultivators, but the駐地 was protected by formations, and rashly attacking would cause too much commotion. He didn't want to cause trouble, so he ignored them all.

Moreover, he still had some doubts about this Luo Yuanhao, especially since he didn't know the depth of this person. In case he was a great power from before the ancient times, even if it was just a wisp of remnant soul, or just seizing a Core Formation cultivator, it would not be easy to deal with.

After going only 100,000 miles east, he discovered five strongholds, either on the top of a mountain, hidden in a deep valley, or standing on the edge of a large lake, all of which were places where spiritual energy gathered. There were Core Formation cultivators sitting there, and there were also quite strong formations guarding them.

Zhang Yuanjing used the earth escape technique to approach the Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Tianmo Abyss who were acting outside many times. From their words, he couldn't hear anything related to attacking Xuanyuan Hall.

Of course, these cultivators were too low-level, just following orders, and knew limited things.

As for the Core Formation cultivators, he didn't see any stragglers. He waited outside a stronghold for three days, but didn't see any Core Formation cultivators coming in and out, so he had to give up, turned around, and headed north of Shumi Mountain.

After traveling more than 200,000 miles along the way, except for discovering a stronghold in the mountains near the east, he couldn't see any traces of cultivators after reaching the north. The same was true when going west.

On the south side, he found three strongholds, but there were only three or five Foundation Establishment cultivators, probably just for warning purposes.

After a round of inspection, he already had a clear idea in his mind—Tianmo Abyss had not yet begun to attack Xuanyuan Hall. This may be because the other party did not know his identity, or it may be that the Nascent Soul True Person of Tianmo Abyss was still planning. After all, Tong Tianfu's plan to lure the enemy was almost obvious. The Tianmo Abyss Nascent Soul suffered a loss in Tianque Mountain. If they want to catch him, Zhang Yuanjing, again, they have to arrange it properly before they will act.

Zhang Yuanjing quietly returned to Xuanyuan Hall, had a long talk with Fire Crow Daoist for half a day, and then called the six deacons to Xuanyuan Hall for a meeting to deploy various matters in the hall, especially instructing Hao Zhengxiong, who was in charge of patrolling the mountain, to pay close attention to the movements around Shumi Mountain. If there was any sign of a large-scale increase in troops in Tianmo Abyss, he would immediately report to Zhi Zhi Building.

Afterwards, Zhang Yuanjing continued to retreat in Zhi Zhi Building to comprehend the Stone Driving and Shape Condensing techniques.

At the same time, he released the Lianyang Umbrella, letting it refine the spiritual energy of heaven and earth on its own to accumulate power.

His realm was not enough, and he could not provide mana to the Lianyang Umbrella during fighting. When he really faced the enemy, he could only rely on the power of this object itself to fight. Therefore, the more power he accumulated in advance, the more powerful he could exert during the battle.

In this way, time flew by, and three years passed in a flash. Shumi Mountain was calm and peaceful, as always.

During this period, Zhang Yuanjing went out to patrol the mountain several times, but found nothing unusual. He was very strange in his heart, but if the enemy did not come, he was happy to be idle, taking the opportunity to seize the time to cultivate and improve his strength.

On this day, Zheng Yuandu suddenly came, saying that a message had come from Liuyun City, stating that the hall master must personally go to listen.

Zhang Yuanjing's heart moved, knowing that there might be variables. He followed Zheng Yuandu to Feiyin Pavilion, and Du Zhengchao had been waiting for a long time.

After Du Zhengchao activated the sound transmission array, Zhang Yuanjing stood in the array, and heard Yu Tianwan's voice in his ear: "Is Yuanjing there in person?"
