The Rise of the Sect: I am the most persistent person in the world of immortal cultivation

Chapter 1057 The Void-Transforming Gourd and the Star Soul Lamp
Ye Yang sat cross-legged on the meteorite fragment, feeling the stellar energy flowing through the 365 acupoints in his body.

Since obtaining the Zhou Tian Xing Qiao Ning Yuan technique, he has been conducting research and cultivation these past few days.

Because of the foundation laid by the Transformation Meridian Profound Heaven Demon Scripture, the Zhou Tian Star Aperture Condensation Technique has progressed very quickly.

At this moment, a complete cycle of stellar energy has been formed within his body.

Each acupoint is like a miniature star, operating on its own according to a mysterious trajectory, constantly absorbing and exhaling the surrounding spiritual energy and the starlight in the void.

"This technique can actually draw upon the power of all the stars in the heavens; no wonder it's called the Zhou Tian Xing Qiao Ning Yuan Technique."

Ye Yang looked inward and discovered that the magical power flowing through his meridians was no longer ordinary.

Rather, it is a peculiar energy that shimmers with starlight.

Compared to the Myriad Manifestations Floating Pagoda Technique he had practiced before, his current magical power now possesses a greater sense of the vastness and immensity of the stars.

Just as he was focusing all his energy on cultivation, a spatial fluctuation suddenly came from behind him.

Ye Yang turned around and saw Yu Qingzi walking slowly towards him, but what Ye Yang didn't expect was...

He held a bronze lamp in his hands, which shimmered with the light of stars, especially the wick where a ghostly blue flame flickered.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, your star power is surging, and your cultivation has greatly improved. I've come to offer my congratulations."

After speaking, Yu Qingzi coughed twice and handed over the ancient lamp in his hand.

"Look at this object. This is the 'Star Soul Lamp' of the Taixu Dao Sect. This lamp can attract star power, turn it into lamplight, and create the image of stars."

Ye Yang took the bronze lamp and immediately realized that the Star Soul Lamp was extraordinary.

The moment his fingertips touched the lamp, all 365 acupoints in his body trembled simultaneously.

The eerie blue flame flickering at the wick of the ancient bronze lamp suddenly burst open with a hiss, splitting into dozens of tiny flames that swirled around him like a galaxy falling from the sky.

"Thank you very much for your kind offer, senior."

Ye Yang bowed respectfully, having already noticed the extraordinary nature of this Star Soul Lamp.

When he placed the Star Soul Lamp in front of him, the star power that was floating in the void flowed towards the lamp flame like rivers flowing into the sea.

Yu Qingzi stroked his beard and smiled.

"This lamp was originally used by the founder of the Taixu Dao Sect for stargazing. It has been reforged by three generations of sect leaders with star essence, which is of great benefit to the cultivation of star-related techniques, especially in this starry sky flying land."

"Keeping this old Taoist priest is like letting a pearl go to waste; it would be better to let you use it, fellow Taoist."

Ye Yang attempted to inject the primordial spirit power he had cultivated using the Zhou Tian Xing Qiao Ning Yuan Technique into the Star Soul Lamp.

Whoosh!
The surrounding starlight instantly solidified, transforming into countless firefly-like starlight that enveloped Ye Yang and his companion.

Upon closer inspection, Ye Yang realized that these starlight rays were not drifting randomly, but were flowing along a specific trajectory. Upon closer inspection, they were found to be completely consistent with the distribution of acupoints in Ye Yang's body!
"Star Power Resonance!"

Ye Yang was somewhat surprised.

"This lamp can actually draw upon the primordial power of the Zhou Tian Xing Qiao Condensation Technique!"

Before he could even register his surprise, Ye Yang had already discovered even more astonishing things.

When the first wisp of star power, refined by the lamp flame, entered his body, he trembled violently. The purity of this star power far exceeded his expectations, and it merged directly into his acupoints almost without needing to be refined.

The star apertures that would normally require many days of cultivation to fill are now full in the blink of an eye.

An even more astonishing change occurred in his sea of ​​consciousness. As the stellar energy flowed through his ancestral aperture between his eyebrows, Ye Yang "saw" his divine consciousness transforming within the starlight.

The primordial spirit infant, originally only a foot long, was surrounded by seven-colored starlight. Before long, it gradually solidified into a miniature "starry sky figure" and sat cross-legged in the center of the sea of ​​consciousness.

The little figure has 365 points of light that flicker and echo the flames of the Star Soul Lamp outside its body.

"This is the manifestation of the primordial spirit infant star aperture."

Ye Yang recalled the records in the Zhou Tian Xing Qiao Ning Yuan Technique.

When the power of stars and divine consciousness are integrated to the extreme, a star god can be condensed in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Once this item is completed, it signifies that the cultivation of the Zhou Tian Xing Qiao Ning Yuan Technique has entered a new level.

Suddenly, the Star Soul Lamp trembled violently.

Seven exceptionally bright stars emerged from the lamp flame, arranged in a spoon shape.

Ye Yangfu had a sudden inspiration and immediately adjusted his breathing according to the direction of the Big Dipper.

Seven streams of stellar energy, refined to their utmost, shot out from the lamp flame and precisely poured into the seven major acupoints corresponding to his body.

"Click"

It was as if some barrier within his body had been broken. Fine starlight spewed from the pores all over Ye Yang's body, weaving into a blurry star map behind him.

After a long while, Ye Yang finally let out a slow breath and opened his eyes, although not much time had passed.

But for him, his cultivation had reached a new level.

"Fellow Daoist, please follow me."

Seeing that Ye Yang had finished his cultivation, Yu Qingzi stood up, and Ye Yang followed him slowly out.

The two looked out and saw that the distant starry sky was entangled by blood-red threads. Countless blood-red threads writhed like living things, connecting the stars and forming a giant net that blotted out the sky.

Strange runes flickered on each thread, and faint, mournful howls could be heard emanating from them.

"Young friend Ye, look over there."

Yu Qingzi suddenly pointed to the depths of the starry sky.

Ye Yang stared intently and saw several faint golden lights flickering on the outermost edge of the blood-red net.

Although the light was dim, it carried a pure Daoist charm, forming a stark contrast with the surrounding demonic energy.

“That’s it.”

"The Dao Alliance's 'Boundary-Breaking Golden Talisman'."

Yu Qingzi said softly.

"My plea for help, sent out three days ago, has finally received a response."

Ye Yang's heart skipped a beat.

The Boundary-Breaking Golden Talisman is the highest-level communication method of the Dao Alliance. Each one contains the magical power of a powerful being and can penetrate most restrictions.

At this moment, the golden talismans are constantly attacking the blood-red net, trying to open a passage.

"It seems the reinforcements arrived sooner than we expected."

Yu Qingzi coughed a few times, and his sleeve was stained with a dark red stain again.

"We can hold out for at most two more days; the Dao Alliance's reinforcements will arrive soon."

"However, the number of cultivators above the Refinement Void Realm within the Dao Alliance is extremely small, and they are unlikely to come. Dealing with the tribulation demon cultivator will probably have to continue within the Xuan Tian Star Ruins."

Ye Yang nodded, and the Zhou Tian Xing Qiao within his body trembled slightly.

"It's strange, for some reason, why has that old demon at the Thunder Tribulation Realm remained inactive these past few days?"

"On the contrary, it is somewhat difficult for people to get used to."

Ye Yang voiced the question that had been bothering him.

Yu Qingzi stroked his beard, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.

“A cultivator who can reach the Dao Realm is one in ten thousand in terms of intelligence, emotional intelligence, and talent, let alone a cultivator at the Thunder Tribulation Dao Realm. The more the other party does this, the more unpredictable it becomes.”

After he finished speaking, he sighed inwardly.

Ye Yang knew his worries. Everyone knew how powerful the Thunder Tribulation Demon Cultivator was. At present, the Dao Alliance lacked the means to deal with it and could only lure the opponent into the Xuan Tian Star Ruins.

Whether it will succeed is entirely unknown.

However, a few good things are coming up next.

As Yu Qingzi said.

On the morning of the fourth day, a streak of azure light pierced the silence of the star-filled ruins.

The newcomer wore a black Taoist robe with seven ancient copper coins hanging from his waist. With each step he took, he left behind Bagua (Eight Trigrams) patterns in the void.

"I am Tianjizi, here to lend my assistance on the orders of the Dao Alliance."

As the old Taoist cupped his hands, seven copper coins flew up automatically and arranged in the Big Dipper formation above everyone's heads.

Yu Qingzi exclaimed with delight, "It's actually the Seven Coin Divine Calculator from the Dao Alliance who has come in person!"

Tianjizi cupped his hands in greeting, and after meeting Yuqingzi, turned his gaze to Ye Yang.

"This fellow Daoist possesses such powerful killing energy. Could he be Ye Yang, the Dao Ancestor, who is unparalleled in both sword and saber?"

Ye Yang stepped forward and then spoke.

"Greetings, Divine Calculator. You flatter me, fellow Daoist." Before the words were finished, a sound of space tearing suddenly came from afar.

A skeletal warship hurtled through the air, with a barefoot girl standing at its bow, her ankles jingling with silver bells.

"The netherworld and the underworld have come as promised."

As the girl chuckled, the phantom of the Six Paths of Reincarnation appeared behind her. Even more shocking, she carried a blood-soaked cloth bag in her hand.

Then she threw the bag away, and out of it came the heads of two demonic cultivators at the Nascent Soul Realm!

On the fifth day, several more powerful auras descended.

The first to arrive were a pair of twin brothers, their bodies shrouded in the aura of dragons and tigers, who were actually practicing the long-lost Dragon Tiger Taoist magic of Dragon Tiger Mountain.

Following her was an old woman carrying a medicine basket. Wherever she went, withered grass grew back and all kinds of flowers sprouted. This person was known as "Qingnang Immortal Granny," a powerful primordial spirit who was proficient in the way of medicine.

He was also a top celestial official of the Great Yun Dynasty, and rarely appeared in public.

If the Great Yun Dynasty and the Dao Alliance hadn't later engaged in in-depth cooperation, the other party probably wouldn't have appeared.

These people are incredibly powerful, and ordinary people rarely see them; they are like dragons whose heads are seen but whose tails are never seen.

But today, they have all gathered here.

If an ordinary person were to see this, they would find it absolutely unbelievable.

Ye Yang noticed that although these powerful figures appeared amicable on the surface, they were secretly wary of each other. It wasn't until the sixth day, when a sword light that traversed the galaxy struck down, that the delicate balance was broken.

Just then, smoke and clouds surged in the distant sky, and several powerful death auras suddenly appeared within them.

Upon seeing this, a sinister glint flashed in the eyes of the crowd as they exchanged glances, all thinking to themselves.

"Why are people from the netherworld getting involved?"

The Netherworld Yellow Springs belong to an alien force that previously invaded the cultivation world, feeding on cultivators' bodies and devouring many small sects and forces. However, they realized that the cultivation world was too powerful and could no longer sustain their operations.

They could only leave the stage in disappointment.

Although they now have a common enemy, the demon race, and have begun cooperating with the cultivation world, there are still past grudges between them, and many irreconcilable enmities remain.

"The visitor is the Sea and Sky Taoist from the Netherworld."

"Hiss! This person is ranked among the top among the nine Dao Ancestors of the Netherworld Yellow Springs, and he has actually come in person today."

"With the threat of that lightning tribulation demon cultivator in the present, the stronger the people who come, the better."

Hai Tian Dao Ren had white hair tied in a bun, a long beard reaching his chest, a bronze complexion, and a tall stature. He looked no different from any other Daoist in appearance.

However, this person has already reached the Refinement Void Realm, which is considered top-tier, and ordinary cultivators would find it difficult to contend with him.

Beside the Sea Heaven Daoist was a woman with a cold expression and an aura as sharp as blue ice. She was the "Ice Mountain Fairy" of the Netherworld Yellow Springs, ranking sixth among the nine Dao Ancestors of the Netherworld Yellow Springs.

Just as everyone was talking in hushed tones, several more cultivators flew in from the sky.

These people's cultivation levels were significantly inferior to those of Hai Tian Dao Ren and Bing Shan Xian Zi.

However, they were all cultivators from the Netherworld, some coming in groups and others alone.

Ye Yang even spotted several demon figures among them.

The cultivators had almost all arrived.

Yu Qingzi stepped forward and then spoke.

"Fellow Daoists, we have gathered here today to fight against the demons. Now that most of us have arrived, it is time to discuss important matters."

"Although we have the advantage in numbers, the ancestor of the demon race has already reached the Tribulation Realm. There are very few people in the cultivation world who can contend with him. This battle is of uncertain life and death. Please be extremely careful."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Qingzi coughed twice and stepped out.

"Fellow Daoists, please rest assured. I have already sent a message to my grandmaster by carrier pigeon. All we need to do is hold off this lightning tribulation demon cultivator for a while. Once my grandmaster is free, he will come to our aid immediately. Even though that lightning tribulation ancestor is powerful, he is not invincible."

Upon hearing this, a hint of confidence appeared in everyone's eyes.

Everyone knows how powerful the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal is.

As long as the Azure Lotus Sword Immortal can find a moment of peace in the starry sky, the Thunder Tribulation Ancestor will no longer be a problem.

At this moment, Yu Qingzi coughed again and said:
"That Thunder Tribulation Ancestor barely survived the first level of the Thunder Tribulation. During his breakthrough, his soul was even scorched by the pure Yang fire of the Thunder Tribulation. If we could guide him into the Xuan Tian Star Ruins and suppress his cultivation at the Nascent Soul Dao Realm..."

At this point, Ye Yang and Yu Qingzi exchanged a glance, their eyes revealing a hint of seriousness.

While the demon army was outside, these people seemed to have not suffered many attacks when they came to the rescue.

This is not normal.

There is only one possibility.

The Demon Ancestor, who was at the Tribulation Realm, deliberately released these people, intending to wipe them all out in one fell swoop.

However, neither of them said these words aloud.

Although everyone has arrived, no one knows what they are thinking.

If these people were to learn of the terror of the Thunder Tribulation Demon Ancestor, things might change again.

At this moment, Yu Qingzi cleared his throat and said with a solemn expression.

"The Xuan Tian Star Ruins are unpredictable and dangerous. You must all be extremely careful, or you will be doomed."

After saying that, a flash of blue light appeared in his palm, and he produced a pure black gourd.

"This treasure is a supreme treasure inherited by the Taixu Dao Sect. It can break through the void. Fellow Daoist Ye has already placed a spatial anchor point in the Xuan Tian Star Ruins."

"By activating this Void-Escape Gourd, I can open up a void passage, which we can then use to directly enter the Xuan Tian Heart Region!"

At this moment, someone spoke up.

"I've heard that the Xuan Tian Star Ruins is the place where the ancient Xuan Tian Sect inherited its legacy. I wonder if that's true or not."

Upon hearing this, the room fell silent.

Many people felt a surge of warmth in their hearts.

Their rapid arrival was partly due to the Dao Alliance's order to fight against the demons.

However, with the Xuan Tian Sect's inheritance site now in the world, the desire to gain benefits from it is what most people are thinking.

"I've heard that the Xuan Tian Star Ruins is the place where the Xuan Tian Sect inherits its legacy, but we don't know the specifics of what's inside."

After speaking, Yu Qingzi made a hand seal and chanted an incantation. The Void-Escape Gourd floated in mid-air and was immediately filled with rays of light.

Thirty-six beams of light poured out from the gourd's mouth, tearing through space and forming a passage large enough for one person to pass through. Seeing this, the crowd did not hesitate and hurriedly filed in.

the other side.

Just as Yu Qingzi used the Void-Transcending Gourd to break through space.

In a vast pool of blood, a withered old demon was closing his eyes to meditate.

The next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, a flash of lightning in his scarlet pupils, and the blood around him immediately began to boil.

"Those ants have finally started to move."

He gave a sinister smile and made a hand seal with his withered fingers.

At the bottom of the blood pool, countless skulls emerged, each with green ghost fire flickering in its eye socket.

The black-robed monks standing behind him immediately knelt down.

"Ancestor, are they those human cultivators?"

The old demon nodded.

"The spatial fluctuations are coming from the northwest; at least ten cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage or above are currently traversing the void."

The old demon of lightning licked his lips.

"Activate the Nine Netherworld Locking Formation. I want them to experience the effects of spatial turbulence."

After the black-robed cultivator accepted the order and withdrew, the old demon stood up from the blood pool, and the blood dripping from his body condensed into a talisman in mid-air.

He reached out and summoned twelve blood-red banners from outside the hall, each banner imprisoning the primordial spirit of a cultivator.

"Although its cultivation level is somewhat lacking, it's sufficient for interfering with teleportation."

The old demon grinned maliciously and crushed a primordial spirit. Amidst the shrill screams, the runes on the blood banner lit up with a dazzling red light.

At the same time, the spatial passage where Ye Yang and the others were located suddenly began to tremble violently.

"not good!"

The fortune teller was the first to notice the anomaly, and the seven copper coins instantly formed a defensive formation.

"Someone is interfering with the space portal!"
