Mortal: Fengling Linggen, married Chen Qiaoqian

Immediately afterwards, Yan Yun flicked his sleeves, and thirty-six golden flying swords streaked across the sky like meteors. Then, with a buzzing sound, they all gathered at the center and turned into a giant golden sword that was more than ten feet long.

Accompanied by the casting of a spell, the giant sword fiercely hit the light shield in front.

A golden arc as thick as an arm suddenly appeared on the surface of the giant sword. After rotating around the giant sword several times, it gradually turned into a lifelike lightning python.

The python swam around the giant sword several times, then raised its head and chest, making a hissing sound from its mouth, with an extremely majestic aura.

At the same time, the puppet beside him raised his arm, and a small fiery red bow appeared in front of him. The other hand gently pulled the bowstring, and an emerald green arrow appeared.

As a deafening thunder sounded, the same golden arc jumped out on the surface of the arrow, flickering.

Yan Yun's face was serious, his finger pointed in the air, and the giant sword was like a sharp blade that could split mountains. With a roar, it chopped straight down.

Almost at the same time, the bowstring in the hand of the puppet next to him was also tightened, and an arrow shining with emerald green light and mixed with a little golden light flew out from the air.

After a deafening roar, the surface of the light shield vibrated violently, and was then covered by overwhelming golden electric energy.

The surrounding lake water also surged and formed a huge underwater whirlpool, rushing straight to the lake surface above.

However, Yan Yun stood still in this whirlpool, as if the rolling and roaring dark waves around him did not exist in his sight.

Just as the light gradually faded and the golden light dissipated and disappeared, Yan Yun glanced down intently, and then his expression moved slightly and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, the originally colorful light shield below had disappeared without a trace, and what appeared in the center was a small magic circle with a diameter of about ten feet, emitting a soft white light.

The emerald green lake water rushed towards this place frantically, but once it touched the layer of white light, it was firmly blocked outside and could not penetrate at all.

This magic circle was actually made of some special material and had a magical water-proof function.

A hint of surprise flashed across Yan Yun's eyes, but he quickly put the puppet into his pocket, and then with a slight shake of his body, he was already standing on the magic circle.

He did not start the teleportation immediately, but instead carefully studied the small teleportation array under his feet.

After a brief observation, he nodded with satisfaction, then patted the spirit beast bag on his waist, released most of the six-winged frost centipedes that he had previously retracted, and commanded them through his divine consciousness.

These snow-white centipedes swayed gracefully and burrowed into the ground around the magic circle.

Only then did Yan Yun confidently cast a spell at the edge of the magic circle, activating this mysterious magic circle.

With the flash of white light, Yan Yun's figure disappeared into the magic circle in the blink of an eye.

In the next moment, when he gradually recovered from the discomfort brought by the teleportation, his eyes quickly wandered around and soon found himself in a small stone chamber.

The stone chamber is not large, with empty and desolate walls. Not far ahead is a tightly closed bluestone door, which is only half-closed at this moment.

He thought for a moment, then sat down cross-legged and released his spiritual consciousness.

The spiritual consciousness slowly explored outside the stone gate, and at the same time continued to expand and extend in all directions, carefully scanning all the surrounding rooms and corners.

After a few minutes, his expression relaxed slightly as he confirmed that there was indeed no one living here and no other monks were hiding here.

Only then did Yan Yun stand up calmly, walked a few steps towards the stone gate, and disappeared into the passage outside...

Half an hour later, a dazzling green arc suddenly shot up from the bottom of the lake into the sky, like a bolt of lightning that cuts through the sky, and disappeared at the end of the sky in an instant.

Yan Yunduan sat on the flying magic weapon, casually playing with a piece of light golden ore in his hand, with a faint smile on his face.

This trip to Man Huzi's cave was quite fruitful for him.

The collection of this barbarian bearded man was extremely rich, even beyond his expectations.

Whether it was the precious materials and rare treasures worth millions of spirit stones, or the carefully collected classics and secret techniques, many of them were things that Yan Yun had already heard of but had never seen with his own eyes.

This undoubtedly made him very happy.

The flying magic weapon was still speeding forward leisurely along the way. After Yan Yun was silent for a moment, he suddenly opened his lips and a jade tripod only an inch in size spurted out.

It is exactly what is called the Xutian Treasure Cauldron!
Yan Yun raised his arm slightly and held the tripod steadily in his palm. He made a gesture with one hand and cast a spell. A seal fell accurately on the lid of the tripod.

In an instant, a green light appeared all over the small tripod, and the lid of the tripod slowly moved away, revealing a tiny gap.

A golden light flashed, and a talisman shot out from it.

Yan Yun was already prepared. A stream of blue light spurted out of his mouth and hit the golden talisman accurately.

The golden talisman trembled instantly, and its spiritual light became dim. Then, under the wrapping of Qingxia, it could no longer move at all and was forcibly fixed in front of Yan Yun with his powerful spiritual power.

Yan Yun waved his wrist, quickly took the talisman in his hand, and examined it carefully.

This was exactly the magical talisman that Yan Yun had collected before.

He had never seen such a strange talisman before. Not only could it allow a person to move instantly, but it could also transform into golden flowers and spirit bees. Its power was breathtaking.

Obviously, this should be a unique and rare secret talisman!
Yan Yun couldn't suppress his inner curiosity and took out the talisman to study it first.

Yan Yun looked at the talisman and found it to be nothing special. Most of the runes engraved on it were familiar and common to Yan Yun.

However, the only peculiar thing is the several silver-gray ancient characters engraved at the four corners and the center of the talisman.

These ancient characters reveal a mysterious atmosphere, and the overall structure is like a group of dancing silver tadpoles, allowing people to deeply appreciate the primitive wildness contained in them at first sight.

Yan Yun examined them carefully several times and finally determined that these characters were different from any ancient texts he had ever come across. They seemed to be a system of their own and had nothing to do with other ancient texts.

In addition, the surface of the talisman was dotted with many bean-sized golden light spots, which were vivid and flowing on the talisman like life, appearing and disappearing, and looked extremely mysterious. Yan Yun stared at the golden talisman intently, and deep furrows appeared between his brows.

"Humph! How can ordinary people like you understand this kind of silver script? You'd better give up this idea as soon as possible!"

Suddenly, a childish voice floated out from the Void Cauldron in Yan Yun's hand, and the tone was full of arrogance and disdain, as if the child didn't care about Yan Yun at all.

Upon hearing the news, Yan Yun's eyes flickered several times, but instead of feeling angry, he smiled slightly and responded calmly.

"So, you are quite familiar with this kind of rune."

“Humph, even in the upper realm, there are only a few people who understand this kind of silver text. If I hadn’t devoured the soul of a human cultivator who was proficient in this text, how could I recognize this kind of text?”

The childish voice answered directly and frankly.

"Why would I take the initiative to talk to you today? I thought you had decided to settle down in this Xutian Ding and no longer planned to return to the real world."

Yan Yun stared at the Void Cauldron with a serious expression and stated coldly.

"You are just a cultivator in the human world, and you have not yet entered the realm of transformation. How can I talk to you? However, the situation has changed now. Since you have obtained a spiritual feather of Youtian Kunpeng, then I naturally have something to talk to you, and I can even make a deal with you."

The child in the cauldron said in a calm tone.

“Youtian Kunpeng, could it be the giant demon bird that I saw in the vast ocean that tried to cross the interface and attack us?”

Yan Yun's expression suddenly changed, and he instantly recalled the thrilling battle he experienced in the alien starry sea that day.

“Haha! Monster bird, it may be okay for you to call it that in the human world. But if the Tianpeng people who revere this Kunpeng as a god in the spirit world learn about this, I’m afraid it will cause an unprecedented catastrophe.”

The child laughed mockingly and continued.

"Tianpeng tribe?" Yan Yun was shocked when he heard this.

"There is really no need to explain the spiritual world to you ordinary people. If you are lucky enough to ascend to that place, you will naturally understand everything. Otherwise, it would be futile to explain it to you."

The child seemed to be dismissive of this and spoke proudly with the attitude of an old man.

"You are so arrogant! Even though you are the original body of the Tianlan Holy Bird and an important demon cultivator in the spirit world, after being reborn in the human world, you only have the strength of an eighth-level demon beast. If you want to restore your magical powers to the God Transformation Stage, it will be a long time before you can do so!"

Yan Yun sneered and responded.

It turned out that the creature in the cauldron that made the childish voice was actually the clone of the Tianlan Holy Beast that Yan Yun captured in the battle with the Tianlan Holy Maiden.

Originally, this demon beast had always been acting according to its original nature. However, after being imprisoned by the Xutian Ding for a hundred years, it miraculously opened up its spiritual wisdom and even recalled most of its life in the spiritual world. However, because it was in the powerful spiritual treasure of the Xutian Ding, the demon beast could not escape and could only stay there obediently.

Until Yan Yun successfully promoted to the late Nascent Soul stage, he immediately completely reshaped and refined the two great Tongtian Lingbao. After completing the second level of Tongbao Jue cultivation of Xutian Ding, Yan Yun was finally able to successfully open Xutian Ding.

At this time, the Tianlan Holy Beast clone in the cauldron immediately performed a unique escape technique in the spiritual world, and escaped from the cauldron silently under Yan Yun's nose, and in just a moment, it had escaped more than a hundred feet away. With such an amazing speed, if it flashed a few more times, even Yan Yun would find it difficult to catch up.

However, surprisingly, something jaw-dropping happened when the monster had just escaped from the Xutian Ding by two or three hundred feet.

Suddenly, the small tripod and the monster simultaneously flashed a green light, and then the Tianlan beast inexplicably disappeared from the spot.

Then, it mysteriously returned to the Xutian Ding, as if it could no longer break free from the shackles of this treasure.

Faced with this scene, Yan Yun felt ecstatic but also confused.

After investigation, Yan Yun discovered that it was because the monster had been imprisoned in the cauldron for too long that its body aura had been assimilated by the Xutian Cauldron, and was almost exactly the same as Yin Yue back then.

However, it is not an invisible body, nor is it the spirit of the Xutian Ding. Apart from being unable to leave the cauldron, it still maintains its independence in other aspects, and Yan Yun still cannot control it.

Therefore, Yan Yun imprisoned the monster without hesitation and put it back into the small cauldron. He planned to wait until he had thought about it carefully before deciding how to deal with the clone of the Tianlan beast.

However, at this moment, when he was studying the golden talisman in his hand, the Tianlan Beast in the cauldron suddenly spoke and clearly pointed out that this silver tadpole script was a rune unique to the spiritual world.

This scene shocked Yan Yun. "Haha, Divine Transformation? Why should I advance to Divine Transformation? I have never thought of breaking through this realm in tens of thousands of years since I came to your human world."

A childish laughter came from the cauldron.

"Don't want to break through? How could such a thing be possible in the world? Do you think I'm a three-year-old child?"

Yan Yun was stunned, somewhat doubtful.

"Little guy, it seems that you won't believe it easily unless I tell you something. So let me reveal my true identity. I do have a certain reputation among the demons in the spirit world, and my cultivation has already reached a height that you can hardly imagine."

"However, this time, I went through so much trouble to allow my spirit to break through the realm and descend into the human world. Was it really just to become a human's guardian beast? In the spirit world, I have countless subordinates. These abrupt people in Tianlan Grassland are really insignificant to me."

The sacred beast Tianlan did not hide its contempt for the Tuwu people.

Yan Yun frowned, but did not respond. Then, the child-like voice still floated melodiously:

"In fact, the reason why I chose to descend into this world as a fragment of my soul in this life is just to deal with the upcoming catastrophe."

"If my true body in the spirit world cannot survive this catastrophe and eventually my soul is scattered, at least I still have this fragment of spirit in this world, leaving me with a glimmer of hope, so that I won't really disappear forever between heaven and earth."

"Before that, of course, there is no need to let this body cultivate too quickly, lest once the cultivation reaches the Spiritual Transformation Realm, it will instead affect me, the Spiritual Subdivision hiding in this world."

"There is actually such a thing. This is undoubtedly a strategy to preserve one's life. Do those great masters in your spiritual world also use this method to preserve themselves?"

Yan Yun was shocked when he heard this, and his heart was filled with doubts and suspicions. (End of this chapter)
