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

The cultivators sat together, enjoying the porridge made from spirit rice.

Han Yu held the bowl, feeling the pure star power contained in the porridge, and felt as if every pore in her body was relaxed.

"It's strange, but since this Yangwen Spirit Rice came to the starry sky, both its spiritual power and taste have become much better than when it was on the ground!"

He wolfed down his food, absorbing the spiritual energy of the rice while cultivating with the help of the surrounding starlight.

"I feel that my cultivation bottleneck has loosened a bit!"

Han Yu muttered to herself, while Ye Yang stood on the newly built observatory, looking down at the bustling camp below.

Suddenly, he frowned as he sensed an unusual fluctuation of stellar energy coming from the southwest.

"Sect Leader, did you sense it?"

Gu Xuan nodded solemnly.

"It's a stellar tide, and it's very abnormal."

Before he finished speaking, a loud noise suddenly came from the distance.

A crack appeared in the sky to the southwest.
Countless starlight cascaded down like a waterfall.

"Star Power Rampage!"

Upon seeing this, Ye Yang's expression changed drastically.

"Everyone, go into defensive mode!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the cultivators hurriedly abandoned their posts and rushed back to their respective positions.

Han Yu had only run a few steps when he suddenly noticed that the Yang-patterned spirit rice in the spirit field was withering at an alarming rate.

Meanwhile, the Nine-Aperture Star Vines grew wildly, and in the blink of an eye, they covered half of the city wall!

“Something’s wrong”

His pupils contracted sharply, and he quickly realized why this had happened.

Under intense external stimuli, those nine-aperture star vines are forcibly devouring the life force of the spirit rice in order to survive.

At this critical moment.

A figure in cyan suddenly descended from the sky, landing steadily in the center of the out-of-control star vines. He stood in mid-air, his robes fluttering, his back to the crowd.

It remained motionless amidst the raging storm of stellar energy ahead.

The next moment, Ye Yang slightly raised his right hand, his five fingers slightly spread.

A dazzling starlight burst forth from his palm, enveloping the cracked starry sky like a net.

"combine!"

With a soft shout from Ye Yang, the countless cascading waterfalls of starlight were forcefully pushed back into the crack, like a river flowing backward.

The shattered sky healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, returning to its original state in an instant.

"This"

The people on the ground stared wide-eyed in disbelief at this scene.

At this moment, the star power receded.

The Nine-Aperture Star Vine, which was growing wildly on the ground, seemed to be under some kind of call.

They retreated from the city walls and huddled back at the edge of the spirit field.

The Yangwen Spirit Rice, whose life force had been devoured, miraculously regained its vitality, with golden ears of rice swaying gently in the starlight.

"The Dao Ancestor has manifested!"

"It's Daozu Ye! Daozu Ye has appeared."

"We pay our respects to the Dao Ancestor!"

The cultivators present all knelt on the ground, their eyes filled with awe.

Some of the older, independent practitioners were moved to tears, repeatedly kowtowing and shouting.

Ye Yang's gaze, however, pierced through layers of nebulae, looking towards the distant deep space.

There, a meteorite cluster with a diameter of a thousand miles is spinning and colliding out of control.

Each impact unleashed terrifying energy capable of destroying stars.

"It's not over yet."

With a flash, he transformed into a streak of azure light and soared straight into the heavens.

Wherever his figure passed, the chaotic star power around him retreated, not daring to approach within three zhang of him.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Yang was standing in the center of the meteorite cluster.

"town!"

A soft shout resounded throughout the world.

The next moment, Ye Yang formed an ancient hand seal with his hands.

Immediately afterwards, countless rays of starlight burst forth from his body.

They intertwined in the void, forming a giant net that covered the entire star field.

He frowned slightly, his right hand calculating with his fingers, while his left hand kept drawing talismans in the air.

Streams of blade and sword light flew in all directions, suppressing all remaining stellar energy fluctuations.

"I see."

Ye Yang sighed softly, and a bronze mirror flew out from his sleeve.

The mirror did not reflect his image, but rather a swarm of meteorites crashing about in the vast sea of ​​stars.

He gathered a point of blue light at his fingertips and wrote three ancient Dao patterns in the void.

The moment the Dao patterns took shape, the entire defensive array of Starfall City lit up simultaneously, forming a hemispherical light shield.

"The stellar power surge is just a harbinger."

Ye Yang's voice wasn't loud, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.

"Everyone must be extremely careful and must not act without authorization."

Before he finished speaking, his figure had already transformed into a streak of azure light and soared straight into the sky.

All the people saw was a slight distortion in the air where he had been standing.
Han Yu rubbed his eyes and noticed that the Nine-Aperture Star Vine on the city wall had bloomed with pale blue flowers at some point.

The falling star vine petals suddenly froze in mid-air, then silently turned into dust.

"Look at the sky!"

someone exclaimed.

Everyone looked up and realized that they were in the sky.

Where the streak of blue light passed, the rampaging meteorite swarm suddenly turned around, like a flock of sheep being led by an invisible rope.

Further away, seven stars arranged in a dipper shape shone brightly at the same time, casting a silvery-white beam that enveloped Ye Yang.

Some people noticed the change and were so excited that their beards trembled.

"The Big Dipper signifies death, the Southern Dipper signifies life. Daoist Ye is about to reset the orbits of the stars!"

Just as everyone was holding their breath, a stellar energy fluctuation, ten times stronger than before, suddenly came from underground.

The entire camp shook violently, and the spirit fields that had just recovered began to crack again.

Ye Yang, high in the sky, seemed to sense something and glanced down.

In that split second of distraction, the largest piece of the meteorite suddenly burst forth with a blinding purple light, broke free of its restraints, and hurtled toward the ground!

Ye Yang's eyes narrowed as he sensed the out-of-control purple meteorite crashing down with earth-shattering force.

If it is allowed to fall, the entire camp will be reduced to dust in an instant!

"Certainly!"

He snorted coldly and clenched his right fist tightly.

In an instant, the entire sky seemed to freeze, and the meteorite cluster remained suspended in the void.

Even the falling purple meteorite was suspended in mid-air, only a thousand feet above the ground!
The cultivators in the city looked up at this scene and were all horrified.

"This...what kind of magical power is this?!"

"He can even freeze a meteorite from outer space. Ye Daozu's strength is truly terrifying."

However, Ye Yang did not let his guard down.

He made a hand seal with his left hand, and brilliant starlight burst forth from his fingertips, transforming into a pillar of light that reached the heavens and the earth, heading straight for the purple meteorite.

Many disciples secretly looked up and saw the aurora borealis dancing behind Ye Yang like colorful ribbons, but it could never cross the three-zhang radius around him.

Those dazzling bands of light touched the invisible barrier, splashing up a fine rain of light, a beauty that was breathtaking.

"Refining!"

A beam of light enveloped the meteorite, which was then engulfed in intense sparks, causing the purple patterns on its surface to crumble inch by inch.

Ultimately, it turned into countless tiny specks of sand, drifting away with the wind.

The crisis was over, and peace returned to the world.

Ye Yang stood on the clouds, looking down at the earth.

The meteorite, hurtling through the air, came into contact with the giant web of starlight.

Immediately, like a tamed wild beast, it gradually slowed down and finally came to rest on its original track.

And just after all these falls were on track.

The figure in cyan robes landed gracefully, stirring up a gentle breeze as its garments fluttered.

"Master Ye has mended the starry sky."

There was an exclamation from the crowd.

Many people's legs went weak and they involuntarily knelt down on the ground.

The next moment, he looked up and saw that Ye Yang had simply raised his hand and waved casually.

The starlight waterfall that tore through the sky was like dough being kneaded by an invisible hand, with countless cracks healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The starlight pouring down from the sky seemed to freeze in mid-air, transforming into countless shimmering points of light, like a swarm of fireflies on a summer night.

"Congeal."

Ye Yang uttered a single word.

In an instant, the restless points of light trembled all at once, and then lined up in an orderly queue.

It spun and coalesced above his palm, gradually forming a dazzling sphere of starlight.

"Long live the Dao Ancestor!"

A wave of cheers suddenly erupted, and countless people bowed down to the figure in the sky.

Ye Yang seemed oblivious to the worship of the crowd.

He clenched his fingers, and the starlight sphere turned into quicksand that leaked through his fingers and seeped into the cracked earth.

The previously withered Yangwenling rice suddenly straightened its stems.

The golden rice ears are plumping up again at an astonishing speed.

Meanwhile, the rapidly growing Nine-Aperture Star Vines flourished, countless purple flowers blooming on their vines in the blink of an eye. "Strange."

The raging storm suddenly ceased across the entire starry sky, and a sense of peace descended upon the world.
Ye Yang and Gu Xuan exchanged a glance.
"That sudden surge of stellar energy just now was definitely not formed naturally."

He raised his hand and the ancient bronze mirror reappeared, its surface reflecting the depths of the starry sky.

There, a blurry figure sat cross-legged in the void, its body entwined with strange star patterns, as if controlling everything.

"Someone is secretly triggering a celestial calamity!"

A cold glint flashed in Ye Yang's eyes.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xuan's expression changed drastically.

"Could it be... the Gu God Sect?!"

Ye Yang did not answer, but instead gazed coldly into the distance, his voice low and chilling:

"No matter who it is, anyone who dares to incite the Star Tribulation and wreak havoc on the Flying Heaven Gate will surely pay a heavy price."

At this moment, after the star orbits were fixed, the chaotic stellar energy between heaven and earth gradually subsided.

The camp finally regained a brief period of peace.

Just as Ye Yang was preparing to further investigate the source of the star tribulation, a figure sped over from a distance; it was none other than the head of the Gongsun family.

Gongsun Zhi!
The Gongsun family was an affiliated family of the Five Poisons Sect many years ago. Later, they joined the Flying Heaven Sect. The family is extremely skilled in mineral exploration and prospecting.

When they first arrived in the Starry Sky Land, the other side already had a survey compass and was searching for mineral veins everywhere.

Judging from the current situation, there should be some gains.

"Reporting to the Dao Ancestor!"

Gongsun Zhi clasped his hands in a salute, his expression solemn yet tinged with excitement.

"We were ordered to explore the starry sky and discovered a small Five Elements Magnetite Vein!"

"Five Elements Magnets?"

The Five Elements Magnet is a wondrous object of heaven and earth, containing the power of the five elements.

It can be refined into magic weapons, treasures, and Dao artifacts, and can even be used to set up high-level formations, making it priceless!
Most importantly, the magical artifacts made from this mine are naturally effective against metal swords and blades.

If used properly, it can often produce extraordinary results.

Where is the mineral vein?

Ye Yang asked.

"Three hundred miles southwest of Starfall City, underground, due to the violent movement of star power, a crack appeared on the surface, which allowed the mineral vein to be exposed."

Gongsun Zhi answered respectfully.

Ye Yang hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Alright, gather the men and come with me into the mine to explore."

soon.

Ye Yang led the elite cultivators from Gongsun Zhi, Gu Xuan, the Li family, and the Zhang family deep underground along the cracked ground.

The underground is dark and deep, with scattered magnetite ore of the five elements embedded in the surrounding rock walls.

It shimmered with multicolored light, illuminating the solemn faces of the crowd.

"This vein... seems to be larger than expected."

Gu Xuan held a compass, his brows furrowed.

"But the disordered magnetic field suggests something strange is going on deep inside."

Ye Yang's gaze was deep, and he gathered a wisp of starlight at his fingertips, gently touching it on the rock wall.

"Buzz!"

In an instant, the entire vein trembled slightly, and colorful light flowed around it, as if responding to his power.

"Five-element magnets are inherently endowed with the power of balancing the five elements, but the magnetic field here is unusually chaotic..."

Ye Yang whispered.

"Let's delve deeper."

The group proceeded cautiously and soon arrived at the core area of ​​the mine.

However, the scene before them caused everyone's pupils to shrink in shock.
In the center of the ore vein, a huge crystal of the Five Elements Magnet was suspended.

The crystal was over ten feet tall, its entire body shimmering with five-colored light, but inside the crystal was sealed a blurry human figure!

"This...this is?!"

Han Yu turned pale with shock.

Gongsun Zhi's expression changed drastically.

"How could there be a person among the Five Elements Magnets?!"

Ye Yang's gaze sharpened, and with a wave of his hand, a blade of light swept across the surface of the crystal.

There was a click.

A fine crack appeared on the surface of the crystal, and then an ancient and eerie aura slowly emanated from it.

next moment.

A figure suddenly appeared inside the crystal, and that figure opened its eyes!
"boom!"

The entire mine trembled violently, and the five elements of magnetite ore detached from the rock walls and floated in the air.

The crystal shattered completely, and the figure was surrounded by five-colored magnetic light, his eyes as cold as an abyss.

"...I have finally...seen the light of day again!"

A deep, hoarse voice echoed from the ground, sending chills down one's spine.

Ye Yang's expression was solemn as he asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

The man slowly raised his head, a sinister smile curling at the corner of his mouth.

"My name has long been lost to the river of time... However, you may call me—the Venerable One!"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his hand, and the five elements of magnetite ore around him shot out like a rainstorm, turning into countless sharp blades that attacked everyone!

"retreat!"

Ye Yang gave a cold shout, and with a flick of his sleeve, starlight transformed into a barrier to block the attack.

However, the master sneered and clenched his fist.

"The five elements are reversed, and the earth's veins are collapsing!"

"Boom!"

The entire mine began to collapse, magma erupted from the ground, and scorching waves of fire swept in!

"Oh no! He's going to destroy the mine!" Gongsun Zhi exclaimed in alarm.

A cold glint flashed in Ye Yang's eyes. Without further hesitation, he gathered vast star power in his palm and took a step forward.

"Pretend to be a ghost!"

"town!"

Starlight poured down like a celestial river, instantly suppressing the magnetic aura surrounding the remnant soul.

The collapse of the underground was also abruptly stopped!
The remnant soul looked surprised.

"you……!"

Ye Yang stared coldly at him: "No matter who you are, you won't leave here alive today!"

Ye Yang sneered and suddenly tightened his grip.

Countless sword and blade beams coiled around him like chains, instantly immobilizing him in place!

"Playing tricks and creating a false sense of mystery!"

The remnant soul's expression changed drastically, and the magnetic light around its body struggled wildly, but it was completely unable to shake Ye Yang's sword and saber suppression.

"You...ah! Spare me!"

He was filled with shock and anger, and a hint of panic finally crept into his voice.

Ye Yang was too lazy to waste words with him. He raised his hand and grabbed the soul directly, using the Soul Searching Technique to explore the soul's memories.

A moment later, a cold glint flashed in Ye Yang's eyes.

"I see……"

With a casual wave of his hand, he suppressed his master's remnant soul within a starlight talisman, rendering it completely powerless to resist.

"Dao Ancestor, what is the origin of this person?" Gongsun Zhi stepped forward and asked.

Ye Yang said calmly, "This person is not some ancient great power, but an elder of the Gu God Sect named 'Li Wujiu'."

"This person previously infiltrated this place, attempting to monopolize the Five Elements Magnetite Mine. However, he inadvertently triggered a restriction deep within the mine, resulting in a backlash from the Five Elements Magnetism. His physical body was destroyed, leaving only a wisp of his soul to survive to this day."

"The Gu God Sect?!"

Gu Xuan frowned.

"It's them again."

Ye Yang nodded: "That's right. The Gu God Sect acts in a mysterious way. This Star Power Riot is probably also related to them."

"This person wanted to take the opportunity to intimidate us, to make us mistakenly believe that he was an ancient great power, so that we would not dare to act rashly, so that he would have the opportunity to possess another body and be reborn. However, he did not expect that he had miscalculated."

Gu Xuan snorted coldly.

"How dare the Gu God Sect, a mere sect, stir up trouble in our core territory!"

Ye Yang's gaze turned cold, and the starlight in his palm suddenly surged, transforming into a dazzling light sword.

"Since you dared to come, then stay here forever."

Before the words were even finished, the sword light fell like a galaxy, instantly piercing through the remnant soul!

"No!"

As Ye Yang launched his attack, a shrill scream echoed throughout the mine.

The struggling remnant soul disintegrated inch by inch in the starlight, eventually turning into a wisp of green smoke and dissipating.

Ye Yang raised his hand and waved it, the starlight condensing into a brush, using the essence and blood of the dissipated remnant soul as ink.

Three large, blood-red characters were written in a flamboyant style on the rock wall at the entrance of the mine.

Anyone who advances will be executed!

Three characters.

Each stroke contained a sharp sword intent, and star power flowed around the blood characters, forming an invisible restriction.

Those whose cultivation is insufficient will immediately feel as if their eyes have been pierced by a sword, and blood will flow freely.

"This"

Gongsun Zhi and the others gasped in shock.

The killing intent contained in those three words seemed to pierce through the wall, making one's soul tremble.
