Mortal: I can enter the spirit world at the beginning

After a moment, Old Demon Qian said coldly:
"An unexpected surprise? Humph, your Ye family has gone to great lengths to find Kunwu Mountain and unlock the seal. Are you really willing to hand over the treasure to outsiders? Since I can't do anything to you in a short period of time, I am too lazy to bother with you any more. Why don't we join forces temporarily to break this restriction first, and then fight for the treasure with our own abilities after entering Kunwu Palace, how about that?"

"It's up to you how you want! Okay, that's exactly what I mean!" This surprised Old Demon Qian. He thought the other party would hesitate, but the middle-aged man agreed without even thinking about it.

This made the old demon stunned and he became hesitant.

"Now that we are facing monsters, Great Elder, Fellow Daoist Ye, let's think about how to get rid of them first! Otherwise, getting the treasure will just be a dream." After hearing the conversation between Qian Lao Mo and the other two, Ge Tianhao turned his head to glance inside the light curtain and said with some fear.

"Hehe! Junior Brother Ge, I'm not interested in fighting with something without seeing the treasure and both of us getting hurt. Besides, even if everyone present joins forces, I'm afraid they won't be able to do anything to these two." After Old Demon Qian sneered, he said this to everyone's surprise.

"It's good that you know this! Even if you want to take action, do you really think you can do anything to us? There is nothing to hide. The two of us also came for a few things in Kunwu Hall. We don't want to take action before entering the hall." The lion beast's eyes flashed with green light, and he said calmly.

The ugly woman stood beside him without saying a word, as if she was following his lead.

"In this case, there is no need for us to fight here. We should work together to break the ban and take the treasure. Otherwise, with so many of us here, it would be a huge joke if the treasure was taken away by outsiders!" Ge Tianhao said.

No matter whether it was the monks or the monsters here, everyone had lived for who knows how many years, so it was naturally impossible for them to do something stupid and let others take advantage of them. They reached a temporary agreement almost in the blink of an eye.

Although there is a high probability that this agreement will break down as soon as they arrive at Kunwu Palace, it is still better than killing each other before they see the treasure.

“Since none of you have any objections, let’s work together to break the ban.” Upon seeing this, Old Demon Qian let out a strange laugh, and then a huge white shadow flicked his sleeves, transforming into two giant white pythons, which pounced fiercely on the light curtain above their heads.

The square-faced monk on the side silently pointed at the two flying swords circling above his head, and suddenly two shocking rainbows struck straight into the air.

The two monsters outside and Ge Tianhao and others did not relax their vigilance against each other, but seeing this scene, they also attacked the ban.

For a time, all kinds of rays of light and demonic energy were mixed together, bursting out simultaneously inside and outside the light curtain, and the rumbling sounds continued one after another.

“Tsk tsk, I didn’t expect that Old Demon Qian looked so hot-tempered, but in the blink of an eye he could join forces with monsters like lions and beasts. Next time you meet the old demon, you must be more careful and don’t be fooled by him.” In the stone forest under the slope, a graceful emerald green figure hid in a thick stone pillar, murmured in a low voice.

"Hmph, with your current level of cultivation, there is no need for Old Demon Qian to plot against you. If his Five Demons pounce on you, you will have no way to avoid it." Another green shadow next to him said bluntly.

The two people were Madam Mu from the Huaxian Sect and the beautiful young woman.

"Senior Sister, is it true that I have no way to deal with Old Demon Qian?" The young woman looked somewhat unconvinced.

"What does a cultivator in the early Nascent Soul stage want to do to a cultivator in the later stage? Not to mention you, even if I face the old demon head-on, I can only barely protect myself. Our sect's skills are not good at facing the enemy head-on, but if I can obtain a trace of the old demon's essence and blood and secretly cast a spell, I have a 70% to 80% chance of severely injuring him secretly!" Madam Mu said with a sneer.

“Our Huaxian Sect is a semi-hidden sect. In terms of skills and secret techniques alone, I’m afraid it’s not much weaker than the top ten sects. If it weren’t for the fact that every generation has to abide by those rules, I’m afraid that with all our efforts, we would have produced great cultivators in the late stage long ago. There would be no need to be afraid of Old Demon Qian and others.” The young woman said unwillingly.

"The founder of our sect was originally a descendant of the three elders of Kunwu. He founded the sect not far from the seal and established the city defense regulations. His original intention was to guard the seal of Kunwu Mountain nearby. However, so many tens of thousands of years have passed, and this matter has been forgotten many generations ago. If we had not received a letter from Elder Xiang not long ago and re-checked the founding books of our sect, I am afraid we would still know nothing about the seal. Otherwise, why would we have to take the risk to enter this mountain." Madam Mu sighed.

"Speaking of Old Demon Qian, I am more concerned about the great monk who controls the evil-repelling divine thunder. This person has a very unfamiliar face, and the power of the feather fan in his hand is so great that even the masters and great elders of the ten major sects would retreat three feet away when they see it. If used in a closed space, the power of this treasure will be doubled. It is definitely a replica of the famous Seven Flame Fan in ancient times." The beautiful woman suddenly mentioned Yang Qian.

"It is indeed a replica of the Tongtian Lingbao, but it is hard to say whether it is the Seven Flame Fan. However, this person's face is unfamiliar, and his other magical powers are not small. The silver wings behind him can also perform rare thunder escape techniques. He is indeed not an ordinary great cultivator, and we have to be careful. But this person does not seem to be a cultivator from our Dajin, and he does not seem to be the same kind of person as the Ye family. Forget it, no matter how powerful this person is, we don't need to pay much attention to him. Speaking of which, Old Xiang should have entered the mountain a long time ago, why didn't he take action to stop these cultivators. With his magical powers, if he makes a move, there is no way that Old Demon Qian and others can be rampant here." Madam Mu was a little puzzled.

"Maybe he has something else important to tell you, or he went directly to the Demon-Suppressing Tower. After all, that is the most important place." The young woman said hesitantly.

"Impossible! Although the Demon-Suppressing Tower is the center of the formation that truly controls the seal of the entire Kunwu Mountain, if we want to re-strengthen the seal, we must have the Dragon Seal in the Kunwu Palace. If you knew the pros and cons of this, why didn't you go to the Kunwu Palace to get the treasure first?" Madam Mu shook her head grimly.

"Senior Sister, what you mean is, did something happen to Senior Qian? How is that possible? With Senior Qian's cultivation level, how could anyone in this world be able to do anything to him? Could it be that the person has already escaped?" When she said the last sentence, the beautiful woman's face turned extremely pale in an instant.

"It's unlikely that he can come out. The previous restrictions were just broken. If that person had escaped, he would have broken all the restrictions long ago. Why would he wait until now? Maybe the senior was really delayed by something and hasn't entered the mountain yet." Madam Mu said with a forced smile after her expression changed.

"I hope so! No matter what, we still have to follow these people and see if we can get the Dragon Seal first. But besides the Dragon Seal, wasn't there also a Heavenly Crystal Stele that could have strengthened the seal back then? Why didn't they leave the whereabouts of that treasure to us descendants? Otherwise, why would we take the risk of following these people?" Upon hearing this, the beautiful woman started to complain again.

"You don't know this! That crystal stele is just a backup. Its whereabouts is in the hands of the descendants of another lineage of the Three Elders of Kunwu. This is because they are in case something unexpected happens to one of our two branches and there is something else that can control the seal of this mountain. It is said that this treasure is in an unexpected place. Except for the group of people who have long been missing, no one else knows where it is hidden in Kunwu Mountain. With these two preparations, one open and one secret, it can be seen that the ancient cultivators who participated in the seal back then put in a lot of effort." Madam Mu shook her head.

"I don't know what the three Kunwu elders were thinking back then. Why did they leave such a big trouble for us? Wouldn't it be enough to kill that man with one sword? Why did they have to seal it up and waste such a sacred mountain in the human world." The beautiful woman said with a frown.

"This point is mentioned in some books! It seems that the identity of the sealed person is very special, and even his life and death are related to the affairs of the upper realm. Therefore, none of the ancient cultivators in the human world dared to act rashly, and they had to seal him in the mountains." Mrs. Mu hesitated for a moment, but still told some of the things she knew.

"So that's how it is. No wonder people back then were so timid. But how high is this person's cultivation level? Even Elder Xiang seemed a little uneasy when he mentioned this person. We have known Elder Xiang for a long time, but we have never seen these old monsters so uneasy." The beautiful woman asked curiously again.

"No matter how high this person's cultivation is, he can definitely kill us with just a little finger. What's the point in guessing these things?" Madam Mu glanced at him and replied unhappily.

"That's true!" The beautiful woman looked helpless.

"By the way, you must have brought the Four Symbols Ruler with you. We are relying on this treasure to get the Dragon Seal later." Madam Mu changed the subject and brought up another matter.

"Senior sister has reminded me many times, so how could I not take this treasure of the sect with me! But it's a pity to say it, if it weren't for the fact that the properties of senior sister's cultivation method are contrary to the Four Symbols Ruler, it would be the most appropriate for senior sister to drive it. Senior sister said that one of the two magical treasures used to suppress that man is the Eight Spirit Ruler. Isn't it the treasure that this Four Symbols Ruler is an imitation of? I really want to see with my own eyes what it looks like." The beautiful woman turned her bright eyes and said with a sweet smile.

“The Eight Spirit Ruler and the Black Wind Flag were only briefly mentioned in the classics. I don’t know whether I can really see them. Hey, Old Demon Qian and the others have broken the ban. Let’s catch up.” Madam Mu was about to say something to her junior sister, but when she turned her eyes, she saw the light curtain on the platform breaking into pieces under various attacks, and she said hastily with a serious expression.

The beautiful woman's heart trembled, and she also looked up.

Just then, I saw Qian Lao Mo and others passing through the disintegrating light curtain and rushing towards the mountain gate.

"Let's keep up! Don't get too close to these old monsters. It's all thanks to the restrictions on this mountain that can restrain spiritual consciousness, otherwise we would have no chance to track the cultivators in the late Nascent Soul stage." Mrs. Mu called out, and suddenly the two women were surrounded by white light flashing. They quietly escaped from the stone pillar and followed them using another secret technique.

Not long after the two women left, a green light flashed behind another stone pillar behind the stone pillar where the two women were waiting, and a tall figure covered in a green mist emerged. A pair of crystal green eyes stared coldly at the direction where the two women disappeared for a moment, and then disappeared in a strange flash.

When Old Demon Qian and others arrived at the mountain gate, Yang Qian was standing on the small path between the mountain gate and the huge palace, walking slowly. Although his expression was still calm, he paused slightly after each step, as if each step weighed more than ten thousand pounds, and he was still only a hundred feet away from the huge palace.

However, at this time, Yang Qian not only had blue arcs of golden light swirling all over his body, but his entire body was also wrapped in a layer of extremely gorgeous purple flames. He had sharp horns on his head, a dragon tail behind him, and even a layer of golden scales the size of copper coins appeared on the surface of his skin. This strange appearance surprised Qian Lao Mo and others when they saw it.

"What kind of magical power is this? How did this person become like this?" An old man in black couldn't help but shout. "No matter what happened to him, he seems to be trapped by a restriction now. It's the perfect time to get rid of him." Ge Tianhao said with a sinister look, and then he raised his hand quickly, and a fiery red spear turned into a red light and shot out.

Yang Qian had previously used the Three Flame Fan to destroy a bone sword refined by Ge Tianhao, causing him to suffer a great loss. Now that he had an opportunity, he naturally would not let it go easily.

However, as soon as the red light flew out more than ten feet, it fell straight down with a "bang", smashing a deep hole in the ground, and then was pressed to the ground.

"What is this?" Ge Tianhao was shocked and hurriedly mobilized all his magic power to retrieve the treasure, but the long spear seemed to have taken root in the ground and did not move at all.

"The Great Five Elements Magnetism?" Another old man in black robe exclaimed upon seeing this situation.

"No, it's the golden magnetic light! This is a natural restriction generated by the golden magnetic spirit trees on both sides. Anyone who steps into the influence range of these spirit trees will be affected by the invisible magnetic light and gravity of the tree, making it difficult for them to move." The lion beast glanced at the two rows of scorched yellow giant trees on both sides and suddenly said lightly.

"Can't move an inch? Then how did this person get over there?" The middle-aged cultivator of the Ye family sneered and said while glancing at Yang Qian's back in the distance.

“Hehe, fellow Daoist, you really didn’t see it, or you deliberately turned a blind eye to this person’s drastic change in appearance! Not only has this person’s cultivation reached the late stage, but he has also clearly practiced an extremely powerful body-refining technique. What’s more, both the lightning spell and the purple ice flame are extraordinary magical powers! Not to mention you, fellow Daoist, even if an ordinary cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage goes there, I’m afraid he can’t support it for so long as this person after the transformation!” The lion-beast glanced at the Ye family cultivator with a hint of sneer on his lips.

When the middle-aged cultivator of the Ye family heard the lion beast's reply, his expression remained unchanged, but he was naturally furious in his heart.

"Golden magnetic spiritual wood! Could it be the ancient spiritual tree known as the Falling Treasure Tree? This tree has long been extinct in the outside world. It is said that all treasures mixed with gold materials will be defeated by this tree. No wonder Brother Ge's treasure fell to the ground immediately. Moreover, the magnetism emitted by this tree is innate, and cultivators cannot detect it even if they use their spiritual sense to scan it." Ge Tianhao said with a frown.

"More than that! The magnetic field emitted by this tree is extremely powerful. It can even be superimposed on each other and repeatedly exert gravity on the body. Just look at how much gravity will be exerted on the body by looking at how many spiritual trees there are in the two rows. They are arranged so densely that once we enter, we will be affected by four or five of these trees at the same time. I don't know about others, but I know for myself that I can never withstand such a huge force." An old man in a black robe had a solemn expression on his face.

"Really? I don't believe it. I want to give it a try."

Upon hearing this, another old man in black robe slapped the spirit beast bag on his waist, and suddenly a strange four-legged snake flew out.

This strange snake is covered with thick scales all over its body, has a pair of fleshy wings on its back, and looks like it has rough skin and thick flesh.

"Go!" The old man shouted softly and pointed at him from a distance.

A layer of yellow protective shield suddenly appeared on the body of the strange snake. After circling in the air, it shot into the mountain gate.

In this way, under the gazes of many people, the strange snake also flew forward more than ten feet, and then with a "whoosh" sound, it fell straight down just like the long spear before.

But this snake's body was indeed extremely tough, and it seemed to have some brute strength. As soon as it landed on the ground, it exerted force on all four legs and actually rolled over to stand up. The two wings behind it also flapped vigorously a few times, as if it wanted to fly.

Seeing this scene, the old man in black robe couldn't help but show a hint of joy on his face.

But before his smile disappeared, there was a muffled "puff" sound, and the snake's body exploded. The flesh and blood on its body was suddenly crushed into a meat paste by gravity.

"How is it possible? Is this magnetic light really that powerful? Even my spirit snake can't withstand it. This snake has always been known for its strong body. How can this person be okay?" The old man in black robe said in disbelief with a pale face.

"Don't think too much! That person not only practiced an unknown body-refining technique, but also had a faint demonic aura on his body. He should have some secret technique that relied on the power of monsters. However, this person's own magical powers are indeed amazing. He can use three kinds of power at the same time without using magic weapons to withstand such a huge force, coupled with terrifying physical strength. Even I can't do this." Old Demon Qian said coldly, and he actually made him guess part of the truth. His fear of Yang Qian had reached its peak.

In fact, Old Demon Qian felt a little scared. If he had taken action when he first met Yang Qian, he doubted that he would have been able to escape safely.

"There is such a secret technique. This person is indeed not an ordinary late-stage great cultivator. He knows a lot of unconventional things!" After hearing what the old demon said, Ge Tianhao and others began to understand and their faces became stern.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense! If you humans continue talking for a while, that man will walk into the Kunwu Palace." The ugly woman among the two monsters saw Yang Qian getting closer and closer to the huge palace, but she rolled her eyes and spoke loudly in a rough voice, but her voice was as unpleasant as a broken gong.

"Don't worry, the restriction in Kunwu Palace cannot be the only one left in front of us. Who knows what more powerful restrictions are waiting for him in that palace. And now that we know the origin of the golden magnetic wood, breaking the restriction is not a difficult task. As long as we use magic weapons that do not contain gold materials to cut down these giant trees one by one, this restriction will naturally be easily broken." said the middle-aged cultivator of the Ye family.

"It's so simple!" The ugly woman blinked her eyes, as if she didn't believe it.

“The golden magnetic light is only powerful in that it is hard to guard against. Once someone falls into it, they cannot save themselves. The rest is not worth mentioning.” The middle-aged cultivator of the Ye family said as he raised his hand unceremoniously. A small light yellow sword flew out of his hand, followed by a yellow rainbow that slashed across the giant tree nearest to him.

After a loud "bang", the uncle's body suddenly flashed with a faint golden light, and there was only a deep sword mark on the tree trunk where the flying sword had cut, and he was not knocked down by the sword.

"Huh!" The middle-aged man of the Ye family exclaimed in surprise.

"It seems that Fellow Daoist Ye has forgotten one thing! These golden magnetic woods are originally harder than gold and stone. In addition, they have been nourished by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in Kunwu Mountain for countless tens of thousands of years. They are no longer ordinary spiritual woods. It may not be an easy task to destroy them. Let's not delay any longer and act together!" The voice of the old demon Qian was heard, and then a huge white shadow opened its mouth, and a white crystal ball flew straight to another giant tree and smashed into it.

After Ge Tianhao and the others looked at each other, they no longer hesitated and took out various treasures made of jade or wood from their bodies and offered them to the giant trees on both sides.

For a moment, various colored spiritual lights enveloped the giant trees on both sides.

However, neither Old Demon Qian nor the middle-aged men of the Ye family noticed that when they saw the human cultivators attacking the golden magnetic wood, although the two lion-beast monsters also spewed out a treasure each to join the attack, they were all secretly delighted under their seemingly normal faces.

The treasures spewed out by these three monsters seemed to be extremely powerful, but in fact they had little effect when they fell on those giant trees.

However, this situation was cleverly concealed by the massive offensive, and the human monks were unable to discover the strangeness for a while.

"How stupid! I didn't expect that these humans behind us would actually cut down those golden magnetic trees." Yin Yue's sigh came into the mind of Yang Qian, who was struggling to move forward.

"It's no wonder that Old Demon Qian and others were so careless. After all, they don't have the supernatural power of Mingqing's spiritual eyes that can see directly into these giant trees like me. Naturally, they don't know that every tree is engraved with the ancient great light wheel demon-subduing spell. And if you hadn't reminded me, I might not have discovered the strangeness. Who would have thought that the ancient monks could actually engrave talismans into the bodies of trees." Yang Qian said calmly.

He had known about the golden magnetic wood and the great light wheel demon-subduing spell for a long time. It was clearly recorded in the original book, but in order to interact more with Yin Yue, he pretended not to know about it.

"But in this way, the two monsters, the lion and the beast, will be able to pass through this place unscrupulously. Should we remind those people?" Yin Yue hesitated and asked hesitantly.

"Remind? Why should I remind you? These people behind us, no matter they are cultivators from the Ye family or from the Yinluo Sect, are all of the same kind. It's just right that the two monsters are coming here to hold them back. Why not? The reason why I didn't use magic weapons to destroy those giant trees just now was that my strength is too weak. I don't know how much effort it would take to destroy them. Otherwise, I would have done it myself." Yang Qian smiled slightly, but he didn't care about the words he said.

"That's true! However, it would be better for the master to enter the temple early to get the treasure. As long as the treasure is in hand, the master can still escape unscathed with his magical powers. Then, just hide in a secret place in the mountain for a few days, and when the crack returns to normal, you can leave the mountain." Yin Yue heard this, a flash of understanding flashed in her beautiful eyes, and then she chuckled and said. (End of this chapter)
