Xuantian Immortal Cultivation Record

Upon receiving this order, Ape Thirteen immediately felt liberated, letting out a wild howl to the sky, unleashing his untamed nature completely. With a fierce leap, he soared over a hundred zhang, his fist aimed directly at the middle-aged Daoist's head.

The middle-aged Daoist's stiff face turned ashen. He lightly tapped his feet and dodged to the side, his hand gestures changing as he manipulated the four rings to attack Zhang Yuanjing simultaneously.

Zhang Yuanjing stretched out a hand and lifted it upwards. The Source Stone sank downwards, landing in his hand. In that instant, the stone suddenly grew larger, quickly enveloping Zhang Yuanjing.

Two of the four silver rings attacked from below, only to be suppressed by the stone mountain, unable to move at all. The two rings attacking from above with light were blocked by the stone mountain. Waves of light bombarded the ever-growing stone mountain, producing only "bang bang" sounds, to no avail.

With no more reservations, Ape Thirteen was enveloped in golden light, his fists like dragons, his kicks like whips. Each strike carried the sound of thunder. Invisible waves of force layered upon each other, pressing down on the middle-aged cultivator until he could barely breathe.

Not daring to be careless, he recalled the two silver rings, using them for defense. The two rings connected, transforming into two chains of light, weaving around him, breaking through the momentum of Ape Thirteen's powerful force, but that was all they could do.

Guo Songtao, who was watching the battle, frowned slightly. He turned his gaze to Daoist Cheng Hao, but Cheng Hao remained unresponsive.

Guo Songtao had no choice but to say to the elder with the surname Yu, "Daoist Brother Yu, please make your move as well!"

Although he used the word 'please,' his tone clearly brooked no refusal. The elder with the surname Yu smiled and nodded, saying, "Very well. Daoist Ju will deal with that golden-haired monkey, and I, Yu, will test out Daoist Zhang's skills and spar with him."

He moved his feet in a staggered manner, walking with a peculiar gait, arriving beside the high platform in an instant. Immediately, he stroked his Sumeru Ring, took out a golden sword and a jade plate, and tossed them into the sky, where they began to rotate around the stone mountain.

Zhang Yuanjing had already recognized this person's face—Yu Zhiyue, the Nascent Soul cultivator who had ambushed him at碧石山(Bi Shi Mountain).

Back then, he had met this person. This person was the culprit behind the Bi Shi Mountain incident. Knowing that he could recognize him, he still dared to appear here, obviously without any scruples.

This was equivalent to saying that the Enforcement Hall's handling of the Bi Shi Mountain incident was completely unfavorable to the Profound Sky Sect.

Zhang Yuanjing's mind flashed with the image of Sun Duo, the Xuanjing Palace True Person, who had been sent to Tiannan Immortal City by the Enforcement Hall as an inspector specifically to investigate the Bi Shi Mountain incident, and whose attitude towards him and Daoist Fire Crow had been very stern. Perhaps, from that time on, the chief of the Enforcement Hall had already decided to take thunderous measures to deal with the Profound Sky Sect.

Yu Zhiyue appeared casual, but was actually extremely cautious. The two spiritual treasures wandered around the stone mountain, both keeping a distance of several dozen zhang away, not getting too close. The middle-aged Daoist losing most of a bell and a set of silver rings was still fresh in his mind.

At this time, the gathered spiritual energy of heaven and earth had become thin, and the human body's secret realms that Zhang Yuanjing had opened due to the lightning tribulation had all disappeared. There was not much to be gained from continuing to cultivate, so he stopped his practice and picked up the Refined Yang Umbrella that had fallen to the ground. He used his divine sense to call out twice, but there was no response, knowing that Zhang San was unable to wake up for the time being.

As a Xiantian spiritual treasure, this lightning tribulation could greatly benefit Zhang San, especially after experiencing the baptism of tribulation lightning. It would be more confident when facing the lightning tribulation of advancing to a magical treasure in the future. Ape Thirteen also said that Zhang San had absorbed a lot of the strange and mighty power transformed from the stone core of the Void Heaven Stone. If that was the case, it might not be too far from becoming a magical treasure.

Zhang Yuanjing felt the power of his primordial spirit, and the myriad connections between himself and the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth when driving the power of thick earth. It was as if with a thought, he could mobilize endless power, changing a corner of heaven and earth, making it his own world.

This was the feeling that spells gave him. Whether it could be realized depended on his realm of cultivation, and even more on the environment of heaven and earth. If it was in a place with barren spiritual energy, this was mostly impossible.

Comparing the two Nascent Soul Great Perfection cultivators who fought outside the Six Yang Mirror back then, their methods were to transform heaven and earth into a domain, and judging from the momentum, they had indeed reached a certain limit, which could be called the strongest in a realm. However, the Dao techniques they displayed were not spells, but were done with powerful spiritual treasures in conjunction with cultivation techniques. This was also the inevitable choice to pursue the strongest under the current conditions of spiritual energy in the world.

With the Source Stone as support, Zhang Yuanjing could rely less on powerful spiritual treasures, but the influence of the spiritual energy environment on spells could not be overcome after all, and this needed to be paid attention to.

While pondering, Yu Zhiyue began to use his methods. The jade plate stopped above a certain part of the mountainside and suddenly released a ray of light, which bombarded the stone mountain, penetrating it in an instant.

This light was scorching hot and extremely corrosive, quickly drilling a zhang-deep hole in the stone mountain.

At this time, the jade plate retracted the light, and the golden sword suddenly slashed into the hole, with a vast force surging out, pushing the stone mountain down.

Zhang Yuanjing was originally holding the mountain with one arm. When the great force came, he immediately felt the weight, and took the opportunity to lift the other hand to support it as well, activating the Mountain Moving Incantation to share the burden. Then, he switched to the Earth Splitting Incantation, using force to break force, continuously deflecting and attacking, heavily striking the golden sword.

"Bang!"

The golden sword flew high in response, but its spiritual energy had been greatly damaged, and its luster was even dimmer, obviously suffering a significant blow.

Yu Zhiyue was shocked and distressed. He quickly used his hand seals to summon the golden sword and jade plate.

However, Zhang Yuanjing did not want to let this person go, and wanted to repay the enmity of that day all at once.

He threw out the stone mountain and stepped dozens of steps in a row, like walking on a heavenly ladder, heading straight for Yu Zhiyue.

Yu Zhiyue had not yet retrieved his spiritual treasures, but had already guessed what move Zhang Yuanjing was going to use. His face changed and he quickly ascended, dodging into the sky.

This undoubtedly showed that he understood the shortcomings of Zhang Yuanjing's technique, knowing that the further away from the ground, the weaker the power of Zhang Yuanjing's methods would be.

However, he ultimately did not know the power of Zhang Yuanjing. With its strength and spirituality, the Source Stone was actually equivalent to a Xiantian spiritual treasure, and after Zhang Yuanjing achieved Nascent Soul, the role it could play had become much greater.

The stone mountain flew up and quickly shrank to the size of a fist, like a flying bullet chasing Yu Zhiyue.

Yu Zhiyue didn't take it seriously at first, and just moved sideways by more than ten zhang, avoiding its trajectory of attack. Unexpectedly, when the stone reached close, it suddenly changed direction, its speed like an arrow, flying towards his head.

Yu Zhiyue changed his position again, moving to the side when the stone was two zhang away.

However, since this stone was Zhang Yuanjing's body, it could teleport and move with incredible speed with just a thought. As soon as Yu Zhiyue moved, it followed, like a shadow, like a maggot in the bone, not giving him any chance to breathe.

After escaping several times and seeing that he could not get rid of it, and that Zhang Yuanjing was already approaching in the air, he no longer hesitated, took out a silver ball, and shot it at the Source Stone.

At this time, the Source Stone was extremely close to Yu Zhiyue. As soon as the silver ball was released, it instantly collided with the Source Stone.

"Boom!"

The silver ball exploded, and countless snow-white tiny particles shot out, exploding nearby with "crackling" sounds. An extremely cold air was violently released, freezing over a hundred zhang of space.

In this instant, the Source Stone, Zhang Yuanjing, and Yu Zhiyue were all frozen, unable to move.
