#508 - Xuanyu Sect Chen Yingan
He pondered carefully, deducing slowly, and the doubts in his heart gradually dissipated.
So that's how it is. The appearance of the Nine Yang Pearl is closely related to Phoenix Cry Mountain. There must be a reason why it was buried here.
He decided to go to Phoenix Cry Mountain to investigate and see if he could gain anything.
He opened the collected information about Sea Echo Mountain, learning that the mountain got its name because the summit could bathe in the first ray of sunshine of the Heavenly Dynasty, which was very beneficial for cultivating fire-based techniques and enhancing masculine energy.
He speculated that the appearance of the Nine Yang Pearl was no accident and must be related to the special environment of Sea Echo Mountain.
Therefore, he became even more determined to go to Sea Echo Mountain, hoping to gain something.
Li Chengfeng was a decisive person. Once he made a decision, he acted immediately, leading the Life World Space to speed towards Sea Echo Mountain.
Now, the speed of the Life World Space was no longer what it used to be, almost at the level of a Core Formation cultivator, but still inferior to Li Chengfeng's speed.
Phoenix Cry Mountain is located at the intersection of the Profound Light Continent and the Sea Union Sea Area. Beyond this mountain is the Profound Light Continent.
Li Chengfeng stood on this dividing line, with the Life World Space hanging high above ten thousand zhang. He scanned with his divine sense, and the scenery within a radius of seven thousand miles came into view.
Since he advanced to Core Formation, the range of his divine sense had expanded by another thousand miles. Within Sea Echo Mountain, nine main peaks were scattered in a staggered pattern. At first, Li Chengfeng didn't pay attention, but after a moment, his expression became solemn, realizing that the layout of these nine mountains was extraordinary.
He concentrated and observed carefully, deducing incessantly, and suddenly recalled the essence of the Nine Yang Art.
The meridian operation trajectory of the Nine Yang Art gradually coincided with the mountains in front of him. His eyes became more and more determined, and he finally realized that the Nine Yang Pearl was hidden in the deep pool at the foot of the shortest peak.
That deep pool, with its turquoise water like a mirror, bubbled with white foam, covering an area of four or five li, crystal clear, with no trace of demon beasts, only mortals drawing water.
Cultivators avoid places without spiritual energy, but the Nine Yang Pearl was hidden at the bottom of the pool, concealed by a subtle formation, its heat slowly permeating through the earth's magma, warming the entire Sea Echo Mountain range.
Li Chengfeng's lips curled up slightly. These nine mountains held an extraordinary secret.
Although the Nine Yang Art had minor flaws, he had already made up for them, and this place allowed him to understand the origin of the Nine Yang Art, meaning that the cultivation at Earth Treasury Temple was not perfect.
He was not in a hurry to take the treasure, knowing that there must be a strong enemy guarding the place where the treasure was. Back then, the immortal concealed his cultivation and descended to the lower realm using secret methods. The things he left behind were all divine artifacts, and now the guardian had reached the Integration Stage, which was an enemy that Li Chengfeng could not underestimate.
Although Li Chengfeng had already discovered the location of the Nine Yang Pearl, he did not act rashly, but carefully observed the terrain, driving the ecological space to continuously patrol the area.
He surveyed the area around Sea Echo Mountain for nearly a thousand miles, memorizing every mountain and every path.
After more than a month of traveling around, he gradually outlined a detailed map in his mind, and his understanding of the Nine Yang Art suddenly became clear, and the operation of the technique became more and more smooth and free.
Moreover, he began to discover that there was a strange formation arranged here, and after thinking about it slightly, he spent another three months rearranging the formation. He felt relieved, so as not to destroy his grand plan to take out the Nine Yang Pig!
Just at this moment, a huge warship suddenly appeared on the mountain ridge in front, breaking through the waves, carrying dozens of cultivators, each with a joyful expression of longing to return home.
Especially a cultivator at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, Chen Yingan, was the most eye-catching, his eyes were as bright as stars, his lips were red and his teeth were white, and he was about thirty years old.
The rest were all Foundation Establishment cultivators. The warship was flying the banner of the Xuan Yu Sect's return, indicating that they were warriors returning in glory from the front line, carrying traces of battle, witnessing the blood and glory shed for the Profound Light Continent.
This time, they not only returned full of honor, but also carried rich cultivation resources, ready to retreat and cultivate in seclusion.
According to the rules of the Profound Light Continent, no matter what sect or faction they came from, all cultivators who participated in the front-line battle would be rewarded, and they would have a chance to return to seclusion once every ten years of battle.
This system not only dispelled the cultivators' worries, but also attracted a large number of rogue cultivators to join the battlefield.
The front line of the Profound Light Continent has become a stage for cultivators to train and prove themselves. Only with the dual blessing of strength and luck can one stand out from the cruel battlefield.
These dozen or so cultivators in front of them were undoubtedly the embodiment of luck and strength. They calmly led the warship back to the Xuan Yu Sect.
The men on the warship were skilled in driving. Their team was led by him. As an elite team of the Xuan Yu Sect, they were sent to participate in this battle, shouldering the honor of the Xuan Yu Sect.
The Xuan Yu Sect has warriors stationed on the front lines of the Profound Light Continent in all realms. This time, they returned because they had eliminated a demon clan stronghold and rescued many human cultivators, greatly boosting morale. They also killed a demon clan squad leader and won a heavy reward.
It happened to be the end of their ten-year service period, and they returned home in glory.
They wore tokens symbolizing the honor of fighting against the Demon Realm on the Profound Light Continent, on which was engraved a totem of "Breaking Demons with One Punch", with profound meaning.
Suddenly, the young cultivator waved his hand to signal a stop, his eyes were sharp, and after quickly exploring with his divine sense, he decisively ordered a retreat.
Before he could finish speaking, the surrounding scenery suddenly changed, and a large formation instantly enveloped the battlefield. More than a dozen demon cultivators appeared, their demonic energy soaring to the sky. The leader was actually a Core Formation mid-stage expert, whose power was frightening.
He gritted his teeth and roared: "You dare to harm my demon clan's important stronghold, dreaming of returning home safely to enjoy yourselves, it's just wishful thinking!
Today, I will kill you all and hang your heads on the city gate to warn others, so that human cultivators know how dangerous the road of front-line trials is!"
After speaking, he stood with his hands behind his back, full of confidence. The surrounding restriction formation surged with evil energy, making it difficult for even those with profound cultivation to escape.
Faced with this scene, Chen Yingan, a cultivator of the Xuan Yu Sect, did not panic, his eyes were deep: "This is impossible. We have not revealed our return journey to anyone, not even the front-line positions. We only reported to the Xuan Yu Sect.
How could we encounter you here? Could it be that someone within the Xuan Yu Sect is colluding with the demon clan, wanting to prevent us from receiving rewards, and also coveting the rewards we exchanged with our lives?"
His words were firm and powerful, causing the demon cultivator's pupils to shrink suddenly.
"Who is cooperating with the demon clan is none of your business." The demon cultivator sneered, a cunning look flashing in his eyes, "Your naivety is really ridiculous."
The Foundation Establishment cultivator named Chen Yingan nodded and sighed: "This world."
He emphasized, "We are not afraid of the demon clan, and we are willing to shed our blood. We have already obtained the resources we deserve, and the rulers of the Profound Light Continent also value their reputation.
If the news of you killing us spreads, the Xuan Yu Sect will be purged.
This matter concerns the overall situation of the demon clan and the human race. If you want to harm us for personal gain, please think twice about the consequences."
The demon cultivator sneered and responded: "I only care about resources. As long as they are in place, everything else is fleeting."
He continued to provoke: "If you send us to the battlefield now, it would undoubtedly be suicide. But if you take action, you can also get the resources you need."
Chen Yingan suddenly realized: "I finally know your identity. You are from the Xuan Yu Sect, and you are the young master, right? You are afraid that I will be reused on my return journey, threatening your position.
I am currently in the limelight, and the Supreme Elder also intends to accept me as a disciple. You are anxious, so you take the risk."
The demon cultivator's face changed suddenly, and he sneered: "You are indeed smart, but smart people often have short lives.
Although I have reached the mid-stage of Core Formation, I am still despised. As the young master, I have no power or influence, and your prestige is increasing day by day, and you are about to enter Core Formation, and you will be able to compete with me in the future.
I have no choice but to strike first. Blame you for being too high-profile. If you had acted in a low-key manner, you might have lived a few more years.
Now, I can only send you on your way. Remember, if you are reborn in the next life, you must be low-key."
After speaking, he suddenly waved his hand, and his cloak turned into demonic energy and dissipated. It turned out that these "demon cultivators" were all disciples of the Xuan Yu Sect, and there was no real demonic energy.
Seeing this, the others also took off their cloaks one after another. The demonic energy restraints were lifted, and the surrounding dozen or so Foundation Establishment experts were all confidants of the young master, Pang Feng.
