Data cultivation, I observe immortality in the five elements

Under the glow of the talisman on his chest, the fat Taoist saw the young Taoist in green robes casting a spell from afar, flicking his hands and chanting unknown incantations.

Immediately afterwards, the fat Taoist priest discovered that a layer of transparent threads had appeared on his Dharma body.

It is densely packed, similar to the fuzz on the surface of plants, yet different.

The fat Taoist priest suddenly woke up, his face changed drastically, and he examined his body again, but still found nothing.

It was as if the image reflected by that precious talisman was an illusion, a hallucination.
His physical body was intact and showed no signs of being cursed.

"Don't those tiny, transparent threads affect me?" the fat Taoist priest muttered to himself, drenched in sweat.

However, even he himself felt that this speculation was untenable.

"Something's wrong!"

Something's definitely not right!

The fat Taoist priest's face turned ashen; he refused to believe that the image reflected by the talisman was an illusion.

Moreover, even his sixth sense was warning him, giving him a chilling feeling.

How could it possibly be an illusion when the two are combined?

There must be some unforeseen and strange thing clinging to him.

Because cultivators who have reached the level of the fat Taoist priest cannot be said to be completely in harmony with heaven and man, or to be in perfect accord with the Tao.

But his years of spiritual practice had made his spiritual senses incredibly sharp.

That inexplicable feeling of palpitation is definitely not something that happens without reason!

Therefore, he must have forgotten something crucial, which is why he couldn't detect any problems.

After all, this is the cultivation world, where all sorts of strange methods exist. The fat Taoist priest has seen sinister methods of cursing enemies across vast distances of time and space before.

Therefore, he was extremely wary of this vague, unsettling feeling.

"Annihilate them!"

The fat Taoist gritted his teeth, enduring the pain, and tore open a talisman inscribed with silver runes.

This is a truly peerless talisman, which only a master at the Mahayana realm could create; it is his most prized possession.

Extremely rare!
Each one was enough to save his life, and was also the absolute guarantee that the fat Taoist could travel across the ancient starry sky and escape unscathed!
He only had two of these talismans, which were the stock of his lineage.

Once it's used up, there's really nothing left.

Because the fat Taoist's master was skilled in stealing, and could even steal someone's sword from a distance of tens of thousands of miles away.

As for talismans and other treasures, that belongs to another realm, and even his master would have a hard time crafting them.

After all, all kinds of skills in the cultivation world have the power to reach the heavens and the earth. If an ordinary person can delve into one of them and achieve a very deep level of expertise, it is already very remarkable.

Not everyone possesses Luo Yan's terrifying talent for comprehension, which allows him to understand one method and then all methods.

This is also the real reason why the fat Taoist priest showed a shocked expression when he saw Luo Yan able to replicate the ancient divine rune teleportation array.

The vastness of the art of formations is like an abyss, making people hesitate to even attempt it.

'Om! '

A dazzling ray of light descended from the void, carrying an unparalleled sacred aura, enveloping the fat Taoist priest's entire body.

At that moment, he became a giant, glowing fireball, illuminating the entire area.

It was precisely because of this aura that the fat Taoist's eyes were suddenly elevated to an unimaginable level.

In this miraculous state, he finally saw the abnormality in his own body.

The fat Taoist priest noticed a circular point of light flickering slightly in his mind, shining like a star.

This point of light resides in the very center of his sea of ​​consciousness, and his entire spiritual energy emanates from this point.

As time went by, the fat Taoist priest noticed that countless unfamiliar energies suddenly appeared around the round point of light.

Those were other circular points of light, rapidly converging on this side under the pull of those transparent threads.

Looking around, it was densely packed in all directions.

The fat Taoist priest was slightly taken aback when he saw the shimmering, glowing spots of light, and his expression showed a brief moment of confusion.

"Do those points of light represent powerful beings?"

"Is that bright spot of light right in the center myself?" the fat Taoist priest murmured.

Having witnessed the process of those transparent threads, he naturally guessed their purpose.

At this moment, the fat Taoist priest finally understood where his inexplicable palpitations came from.

He's wanted by the police!

That young man, who looked so young, appeared harmless, but in reality, his strength was terrifying to the extreme.

It can actually affect all living beings in this area across layers of space.
Such methods terrified him!
Such a method of revenge truly opened the fat Taoist's eyes, giving him a sense of awe, like a mayfly gazing at the blue sky.

Such mysterious methods, how are they any different from those of ghosts and gods?
It is not a curse, yet it is more terrifying than a curse, influencing the fate of other living beings and thus entangled with itself.

Once implemented, the fat Taoist priest couldn't even imagine how miserable his future would be, surrounded and attacked by countless living beings.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, to be able to use such a bizarre method, this must undoubtedly be a top-ranking Great Dao Law."

"If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have been so impulsive as to dig up that ice wall, get a bunch of broken materials, and then be targeted by such a powerful young genius."

"This Taoist priest is suffering," the fat Taoist said irritably.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with stealing the ancient treasures from forbidden magical sites.

The fat Taoist priest just felt he had been taken advantage of.

He merely dug up a star field teleportation array, yet he was subjected to an attack from one of the top three thousand Great Daos, ranked in the dozens or even higher.
That Taoist priest in blue really thought highly of him, giving him such a big surprise.
The fat Taoist priest looked distressed and sighed repeatedly, saying, "With that guy's abilities, he should have pinpointed my approximate location by now."

"It seems I can't stay here any longer. I need to leave this star system quickly, or it will be bad if they come knocking on my door again!"

"Is that guy really a cultivator at my level?"

"How did they cultivate such unpredictable and insidious methods?"

The fat Taoist priest saw that the silver energy released by the talisman had been exhausted, and the shimmering light he had conjured had also disappeared into the void.

The shock lingered on his face, and his back was soaked with cold sweat.

"My goodness, I've run into a killer!"

"Can't afford to offend them, can't afford to offend them."

The fat Taoist priest took out another ancient talisman from his waist, tore it open, and a crack appeared in the void. He slipped inside and disappeared.

A pile of materials for breaking the restrictions was left on the ground, indicating that he was in a hurry and did not even have time to collect these spiritual materials before leaving immediately.

Clearly, the fat Taoist priest was genuinely frightened.

"It's a pity that the threads of fate were forcibly erased by some powerful external force." Inside the Guanghan Palace, Luo Yan's divine eye between his brows closed, a trace of regret showing in his pupils.

His first attempt to disrupt someone else's karmic connections and change their fate was thwarted when, before he could even see the results, the other person forcefully broke free.

Clearly, Luo Yan's goal this time is extraordinary.

In the previous decades or even centuries, the enemies Luo Yan encountered were either the holy sons of a sect or religion, or the elders of a certain force.

The methods of attacking fate are rarely effective in that kind of environment.

Because the stronger a cultivator is, the more difficult it is to manipulate their causal relationships.

This retaliatory attack is actually the first time he has actively used the power of destiny against an enemy since he mastered it.

Luo Yan originally wanted to see what kind of ending the target would have after the cause and effect was disrupted.

Unfortunately, that chubby Taoist priest, as expected of someone capable of emptying the Moon Palace, certainly had some skill.

The entanglement of causal forces had barely anchored itself in that space-time when the other party escaped.

The opponent is too perceptive, like an eel, incredibly slippery.

"Indeed, one should not underestimate the heroes of the world. Someone who has never even stepped into the realm of the Laws of Void was able to easily escape my net of fate."

"He does indeed possess some skill; this trip along the ancient starry road was worthwhile!" Luo Yan muttered to himself.

This was the first time in over forty years since he embarked on the Path of Ten Thousand Spirits' Pride that he had fought against a fellow cultivator from afar.

They thought that the power of destiny was supreme and could disrupt the beings in that space-time, causing them to collide with that fat Taoist priest and thus erupt into conflict.

Who would have thought that the power of fate would still be discovered?

Like a fishing net woven in advance, the fish escaped through the mesh as soon as it entered the water, before it could be tightened.

"It seems my understanding of destiny is still shallow, and I need to continue to work hard," Luo Yan sighed.

He had only just begun his journey, and was only on the first half of the Path of Ten Thousand Spirits' Pride, when he had already encountered opponents who could evade his power of destiny.

One can only imagine what kind of powerful enemy he would encounter if he continued to delve deeper.

"You can't escape. I've memorized your soul's essence."

"We will meet again," Luo Yan murmured.

With the power of destiny in his hands, nothing can escape his gaze except for old monsters at the Venerable Realm or those protected by extremely rare special spiritual treasures.

This is the domineering nature of the art of divination.

Under the eye of fate, there are no secrets left in the world, whether in the past or the future!
'Snapped! ''Snapped! '

Luo Yan continued to process the precious jade and spirit wood on the ground, while his hands were constantly engraving ancient divine runes.

His hands were steady, and he dared not slack off for a moment. He focused intently on recreating the teleportation runes exactly as he remembered them.

This is an array pattern for interstellar teleportation, which is extremely rare. It looks like two magnets of different attributes pulling the middle area together to allow passage.

Originally, interstellar teleportation required an extremely large amount of energy, but these special divine runes seem to possess a certain property of automatically absorbing the energy of heaven and earth.

This ensures the stability of the black hole space.

According to Luo Yan's observation, these ancient divine patterns and the runes of the world today are remarkably similar, with many similarities.

However, the divine runes of ancient times were simpler and more in line with the Dao, and were not as complicated as the runes that are prevalent in the world today.

Luo Yan was so engrossed in inscribing the divine runes on the teleportation array that he forgot the passage of time.

Half a month later, a dazzling flash of light appeared, and the black hole space in the void was opened again. Luo Yan stepped into it and disappeared.

This spatial teleportation did not last long, only a little over four years, before it stopped.

When Luo Yan opened his eyes again, he found himself in what seemed to be an underground world. All he could see was darkness, with only a few fluorites emitting light.

The air here is very oppressive, and the oxygen is extremely thin, only slightly better than the environment in outer space.

Luo Yan looked around and could smell a pungent, smoky odor and feel a strong burning sensation.

It seems that the test here is most likely related to the Law of Fire.

‘Click! ’

Suddenly, Luo Yan heard the sound of pebbles rolling down, which sounded extremely crisp in the quiet environment.

At the same time, the ground trembled slightly, as if something was rapidly approaching.

'Om! '

A blinding flash of fire erupted from the end of the tunnel, igniting the entire underground world and revealing a strange creature resembling a salamander to Luo Yan.

Its body is not large, only a few meters long, and its body is gray and black with round spots, which fits the environment very well.

‘Wow! ’

Luo Yan was surrounded by a blazing five-colored light. He neither dodged nor avoided it. With a flick of his finger, a wisp of sword energy flew out and pierced through the strange creature's body, instantly silencing it.

Strangely, when this salamander-like creature died, no blood flowed out; instead, it broke into several pieces.

Then, under Luo Yan's gaze, the body parts began to grow like pollen spores.

In an instant, they transformed into five salamander-like creatures.

They spewed fireballs, gathered together, and attacked towards Luo Yan's location.

"This temperature," Luo Yan exclaimed in surprise.

He could clearly sense the temperature in the underground world, which had increased several times in an instant.

This seems to be an innate ability of salamanders, constantly splitting and fusing with their supernatural powers.

"It seems we can no longer resort to violence," Luo Yan murmured.

He worried that these eyeless, slippery creatures could multiply infinitely, and the temperature of the flames they released would rise to an unimaginable level.

"Seal it to me!"

Luo Yan gave a soft shout, and black chains shot out from his palm, drilling into the void and instantly locking the five salamander-like creatures, rendering them unable to move.

'Snapped! '

The five salamander-like creatures struggled incessantly before coalescing into a single, fiery red crystal that fell to the ground.

Luo Yan picked up the "fragment of the Law of Fire" and examined it in his hand.

The Daoist principles of the Fire Crystal are very weak, less than one percent of those of the Yin Pearl and the Ice Pearl.

If nothing unexpected happens, there should still be many fire-type creatures in this mysterious underground world.

While the Law of Fire is commonplace, it is still a crystallization of fragments of laws, its value immeasurable. (End of Chapter)
