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

Chapter 1094 Xuan Yuan Immortal Sect
Half an hour later.

Ye Yang and his two companions followed the scent of blood and arrived at the scene, only to be met with this hellish sight.

"Such a fast technique."

Yan Qingying's six-winged demonic corpse let out an uneasy growl, its eyes flashing red light.

“These wounds… are like being instantly cut by some kind of sharp weapon, without even allowing the primordial spirit to escape.”

The Queen of Hell also squatted down, her fingertips touching a piece of bone that was still warm, her brows furrowed.

"There are very faint spatial fluctuations on this bone, so the murderer is very likely skilled in spatial secrets."

"They seem to be some kind of unknown, mysterious race."

Ye Yang didn't look at the corpses, but instead focused his gaze on the mountain walls on both sides of the canyon.

The surrounding rocks were dark in color, which clashed with the reddish-brown mountains around them.

Moreover, the rock strata are arranged in a chaotic manner, as if they were forcibly pieced together.

He placed his hand on a black stone about ten feet in size. The moment his spiritual energy entered, a few faint afterimages of runes appeared on the surface of the stone.

"These are not the original rocks of the canyon."

Ye Yang ran his fingertips across the stone surface.

“Look at the crystals in these rock layers. They were formed no more than a hundred years ago, but they have been forcibly embedded in rock layers that are thousands of years old.”

He then pointed to a broken stone pillar in the distance.

"The soil at the base of that stone pillar contains 'stardust sand' that can only be found in the outer reaches of the starry sky."

Empress Yama and Yan Qingying exchanged a glance, both of them feeling a jolt in their hearts.

They can move rocks from different regions and years to this place.

The arrangement was so flawless that it would take at least several Void Refinement cultivators working together to accomplish it.

"Within the last hundred years... someone has tampered with this secret realm."

Ye Yang stood up and glanced at the hidden door in the depths of the canyon, which was blocked by rubble.

"Could they be demons?"

Yan Qingying looked around warily, and the six-winged demon corpse spread its bone wings and hovered above the three of them as a watchful eye.

Just then, Ye Yang suddenly raised his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet.

His ears twitched slightly, catching a very faint "click" sound coming from behind the hidden door, like the meshing of gears in a mechanism.

A bronze compass slid out from the sleeve of the Yama Empress, its pointer trembling violently as it pointed towards the hidden door.

“There are residual spatial fluctuations, which will not last for more than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.”

Ye Yang condensed a wisp of sword energy at his fingertips. The sword energy was released, and the sword light was dazzling. Countless rays of light shot into the sky, and the shattered sword energy cleared away the rubble blocking the door.

As the rubble rolled down, a huge bronze stone gate appeared.

suddenly.

He touched a dent and pressed it.

The massive bronze stone door slowly slid open inwards, revealing a secret chamber about ten feet square.

On the stone platform in the center of the secret chamber, three yellowed jade slips were neatly stacked.

The jade is warm and lustrous, and the entire surface is engraved with the two seal characters "Xuan Yuan".

But what's even more eye-catching is what lies beneath the stone platform.

Seven mummified corpses, kneeling in worship, were arranged in a circle. Each corpse had a thin crystal tube inserted into its skull, with dark red liquid remaining in the tube.

"Blood Sacrifice Formation!"

The Yama Empress's expression changed drastically.

“Someone is sacrificing cultivators here. Their life essence has been completely drained to maintain some kind of seal.”

Yan Qingying's demonic corpse suddenly let out a sharp screech, and dense silver threads appeared in the shadows of the four walls of the secret chamber.

These threads are being woven into a net at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"retreat!"

Before Ye Yang finished speaking, the entire secret chamber suddenly flipped upside down, and the ground beneath their feet turned into a dome, with countless poisoned bone needles shooting out from all directions.

The Yama Empress's compass burst forth with dazzling golden light, transforming into a light shield to block the first wave of bone needles.

Yan Qingying made a hand seal, causing the demonic corpse to spew out a black mist of putrid poison, which corroded the silver threads in mid-air.

Ye Yang then pointed his sword at them all.

The golden runes of the "Breaking Illusion Sword Scripture" condensed into a sword net in the void, shattering all the attacking mechanisms.

"Overhead!"

Yan Qingying suddenly shouted.

A blood-red magic circle was revealed on the ground.

A moment later, a bronze puppet with three heads and six arms slowly rose from the formation. In the palm of each of the huge bronze puppet's hands was a beating human heart.

The bronze puppet waved its six arms, and the secret chamber was immediately filled with the sounds of ghosts wailing and wolves howling.

Ye Yang groaned and discovered that his shadow was twisting on its own, turning into chains that bound his feet.

"It's a soul-snatching demonic sound!"

The Queen of Hell bit her tongue, spitting a mouthful of blood onto the compass.

Suddenly, the compass in his hand disintegrated into seventy-two copper coins, which formed a Bagua formation in the air to trap the puppet.

Taking advantage of the brief moment, Yan Qingying darted toward the stone platform like lightning.

Just as she was about to touch the jade slip.

The mummified corpse in the very center suddenly raised its head, and a green flame ignited in its dark eye sockets.

"careful!"

Ye Yang's sword energy arrived faster than expected, severing the desiccated corpse's head. As the head rolled away, a gray shadow darted out from the severed neck, heading straight for Yan Qingying's face.

At the critical moment, the six-winged demon corpse swooped down and shattered the gray shadow with its bone wings.

The demonic corpse suddenly froze, and its bone wings, stained with the gray shadow, began to melt eerily.

"Soul-Eating Demonic Mist!"

Yan Qingying hurriedly severed her spiritual connection with the demonic corpse, her face pale as she took three steps back.

Ye Yang tapped the black stone lightly with his fingertips.

The stone surface emitted a dull echo, quite different from the crisp sound of the surrounding mountains.

"The arrangement of these black stones may seem chaotic, but they actually contain the trajectory of an array."

He suddenly curled his fingers into a claw, and a blade of spiritual energy slashed along the afterimage of the runes.

A half-circle of incomplete array patterns appeared on the surface of the black stone.

"It's a variant of the 'Spirit Locking Array,' which can be used to conceal certain energy fluctuations."

Yan Qingying had the six-winged demon corpse move aside a loose rock, revealing the dark brown soil underneath, which indeed contained specks of silver sand.

It was exactly the meteorite sand that Ye Yang had mentioned.

"Such a large amount of meteorite sand could not have been deposited naturally."

She kicked away the broken bones at her feet.

"The murderer was too hasty in cleaning up the scene, which left a loophole."

"The flow of spiritual energy here feels stagnant."

She gestured to Ye Yang.

"Perhaps it has something to do with what you called 'tampering'."

Ye Yang stepped forward and slowly slid his palm against the rock wall.

When you touch that dent.

He suddenly felt a faint rebound force, which was actually the same as the resistance he encountered when exploring the black stone.

"It seems that the mechanism of the secret door is hidden in the key points of these foreign rocks."

He took a deep breath and channeled his spiritual energy into the depression.

"I'll try to trigger it and see what happens. Be on guard."

As spiritual energy continued to flow in, the surrounding black stones suddenly began to glow faintly.

The afterimages of the runes merged into one, echoing the spirit-locking array patterns on the rock wall.

There was a soft "click" sound.

The hidden door, which was blocked by rubble, suddenly shook, and the surface rubble fell off, revealing a stone door behind it.

Four large characters are carved above the stone gate.

"Xuanyuan Immortal Sect".

Ye Yang withdrew his hand and looked at the runes that gradually lit up on the stone gate.

Ye Yang had heard of the Xuan Yuan Sect before; the sect's origins could be traced back to the ancient times.

Its founder, Xuan Yuanzi, attained enlightenment through his own life and created the "Xuan Yuan Secret Realm" in the Nine Heavens Star River.

Later, the sect was established using stars as its foundation and the void as its walls.
He is skilled in spatial manipulation, even able to condense a "miniature universe" at his fingertips, bringing mountains and rivers into his sleeves.

However, for some unknown reason, the sect was suddenly destroyed and disappeared into the long river of history.

"The person who arranged these rocks wanted to conceal the existence of the hidden door, but also feared that the heritage would be completely destroyed."

"Only then was the Spirit-Locking Array used to temporarily seal it."

Ye Yang suddenly noticed that the stone platform beneath the three jade slips was engraved with fine patterns.

These patterns perfectly match the grooves on the chest of the bronze puppet.

His mind raced, and he shouted.

"Throw the puppet into the stone platform!"

Upon hearing this, the Yama Empress immediately changed her formation, and the copper coin formation transformed into a stream of light, pressing the puppet against the stone platform.

With a crisp "snap".

After the stone patterns were embedded in the chest of the enormous puppet, the entire secret chamber suddenly froze.

All government agencies ceased operations.

The jade slip automatically unfolded and floated in the air.

Ye Yang touched a depression, and as he pressed it, the stone wall slowly slid inward.

A secret chamber, about ten feet square, was revealed.

On the stone platform in the center of the secret chamber, three yellowed jade slips were neatly stacked.

The jade is warm and lustrous, and the surface is covered with the seal script characters "Xuan Yuan".

Yan Qingying stepped forward first and picked up a scroll. The moment she probed it with her divine sense, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.

"It is the 'Mysterious Origin Water Control Technique,' which records the method of drawing upon the spiritual waters of the four seas. It is said that once mastered, one can use a water dragon to break formations."

The Queen of Hell picked up another scroll and gently stroked the ice crack patterns on the jade slip with her fingertips.

"This volume is the 'Netherworld Star Escape Technique,' which is different from ordinary escape techniques. It requires the power of stars as a guide and can conceal one's presence and travel hundreds of miles at night."

Ye Yang picked up the last volume.

The moment it unfolded, countless golden runes flew out of the jade slip and condensed into a dark blue sword in his palm.

"This record is the 'Sword Scripture of Breaking Illusions.' This sword scripture also has some tricks up its sleeve, and it seems to be specifically designed to break illusions and mazes."
