I became an immortal in the mountains

Chapter 725 Take action personally
"Ants?" Gu Yuanqing's lips curled into a faint, cold smile.

Perhaps this was indeed the case for Shi Jin. Ordinary people live no more than a hundred years, while celestial beings live for three thousand years. He had long since disregarded the lifespan of ordinary people. Moreover, within the Holy Heaven Sect, many cultivation techniques and supernatural powers relied on the essence and souls of others as resources. Killing some mortals was nothing out of the ordinary.

But it's not the same for the people of Daqian; this is a blood feud and hatred!
"What? Do you think I'm wrong? I know that your Qian Yuan Island may have a Hun Tian Grand Master, and you should also be a Yin Yang cultivator, but if you want to cause trouble in my Holy Heaven Sect, you've come to the wrong place! If you retreat now, I can pretend this never happened. If you don't know when to advance and retreat, then you're courting death!" Shi Jin snorted coldly, actually admitting that he was just swallowing his anger.

Of the five people in the sky ahead, two were at the first stage of the Heavenly Transformation Tribulation, and one was at the second stage. He did not take them seriously.

The other two were somewhat puzzled, which is why he spoke in that way!

Bowing down is out of the question. This isn't the outside world; it's the sect's territory. If we really hand him over, the sect will lose face. Even though he's the sect leader of a lower sect, his future won't be easy.

It's even possible that he didn't die at the hands of the enemy, but instead died as a result of the sect's repercussions.

Li Chengyi turned around and said, "Father, it seems they have no intention of handing over the person."

Gu Yuanqing laughed and said, "Among cultivators, how can a few words solve the problem? And among evil sects, there is only one rule: see who has the bigger fist!"

Li Chengyi said, "Since that's the case, then I'll lead the charge today, and Father will hold the line for me."

Gu Yuanqing chuckled and said, "If you want to try, then go ahead, but be careful. Although these people are weaker in cultivation, they have quite a few tricks up their sleeves, and this formation isn't so easy to break!"

Starlight shimmered in his eyes, and even his Void-Piercing Heavenly Eye was obscured by the array in front of him. Clearly, the array here was created by a master of array formations, and the person who set it up was also at the Chaotic Heaven level.

Gu Yuanqing was not surprised by this. Although a top evil sect's main focus is the Spirit Realm, the cultivation world is also its second foundation. How could it not have some tricks up its sleeve?
He knew that Li Chengyi probably couldn't take over this place, but with him by his side, he could protect him and it would be good for him to gain experience.

"I understand, Father! Don't worry!" Li Chengyi felt a strange excitement in his heart. After achieving the Three Tribulations of Heavenly Change, he had not yet actually made a move in reality.

Apart from Gu Yuanqing, no one in the Qian Yuan Realm can rival him.

As for the sparring with his father, the two were far too different, and the outcome was known before it even began; there was hardly any real fighting spirit between them.

Today's battle with the Holy Heaven Sect is completely different. They are enemies, not friends, so we can go all out without any scruples!
The conversation between the two was not concealed at all, and even Shi Jin and the other members of the Holy Heaven Sect who were inside the mountain-protecting formation could hear it clearly.

An elder angrily said, "How arrogant! Do they think they can bully my Holy Heaven Sect just because they have some skills? Sect Master, I think there's no point in talking to them. Let's see who's the real deal! Even if they are Yin-Yang cultivators, so what?"

Shi Jin stared at Gu Yuanqing and said, "You'd better think it through before you make a move. If you do, you will be making enemies of my Holy Heaven Sect! You may not be able to afford that price."

As he spoke, he activated the core of the sect's formation, and the sect's formation was activated accordingly.

Hundreds of millions of weapons appeared in the void, and countless weapon puppets opened their eyes. The strength of these puppets was all at the Void Heaven level, with hundreds of them even at the Celestial Human level, and nine of them having undergone the third tribulation of Heavenly Change.

At the very center, the only puppet with its eyes never open possesses Yin-Yang power!
If the entire grand formation is activated, it could even rival the Yin-Yang Zhou Tian realm! Moreover, as long as it can hold out for a short while, experts from the Chaos Realm can use the marks left within the sect as anchor points to provide cross-realm support!
This is the confidence of a powerful, unorthodox sect. Even sects in the lower realms are not places where just anyone can trespass.

Li Chengyi's expression suddenly froze slightly. He had followed Gu Yuanqing in his cultivation, so he naturally had some knowledge of formations and his vision and knowledge were not extraordinary. He could see that this formation was extraordinary.

The magic array merges with the earth's veins, integrating all the power of this world into the array.

He is indeed a Yin-Yang cultivator, but sensing the power of the formation ahead, he may not be able to break through it.

"It seems I overestimated myself a bit!"

Li Chengyi stared ahead, a large cauldron hovering above his head, yet he remained motionless for a long time. His divine sense probed out, clashing with the array's energy, and large beads of sweat suddenly appeared on his forehead, but he found no way to break the array!
It felt as if any movement he made would provoke a thunderous counterattack from the protective mountain formation.

Actually, if Li Chengyi's cultivation of formations was not proficient, it would be fine. He could directly confront the enemy head-on. Even if he couldn't defeat them, as long as he didn't enter the formation and fall into the trap, there wouldn't be much danger.

However, he and Gu Yuanqing often played chess and discussed formations, so when they clashed with the Holy Heaven Sect's protective formation, he insisted on finding a weakness in it.

However, this grand formation has undergone countless improvements over the years, and the person who set it up is Hun Tian. How could a mere Yin-Yang cultivator like him possibly decipher it!

Therefore, before even taking any action, one has already fallen into a misconception.

Moreover, he seems to be in a difficult position!
Shi Jin and the others inside the formation were also startled, because Li Chengyi had previously concealed his aura, and they could not tell that he was a Yin-Yang cultivator. But now, when Li Chengyi's aura clashed with the mountain-protecting formation, his own Yin-Yang cultivator aura suddenly soared into the sky.

He and the elders exchanged glances, all thinking to themselves, "Luckily we were careful beforehand and returned to the mountain to prepare for battle. If we had been outside the mountain-protecting formation, we would have been in grave danger!"
Both father and son are Yin-Yang cultivators, no wonder they are so arrogant. With this strength, they can indeed roam freely in the cultivation world where all the masters have gone to the Spirit Realm.

However, they're still a bit short of causing trouble for my Holy Heaven Sect!

Shi Jin and the others were not afraid. It would be difficult for them to kill the other party, but it would also be difficult for the Yin-Yang cultivators to do anything to them within the mountain-protecting formation. Moreover, they only needed to report to the upper sect of the Spirit Realm, and the crisis would naturally be resolved.

Thinking of this, Shi Jin shouted, "A dignified Yin-Yang cultivator, instead of going to the outer battlefield to slay the Heavenly Demons, you're causing trouble for my Holy Heaven Sect in the cultivation world. I will definitely report this to the Spirit Realm and demand an explanation from your Qian Yuan Island! I want to see if the covenant between the righteous and evil paths still exists!"

Li Chengyi was startled by the loud shout and thus broke free from the confrontation with the magic array.

"Let me do it. With your current strength, it would be quite difficult for you to break this formation!" Gu Yuanqing chuckled.

Li Chengyi looked slightly embarrassed.

Gu Yuanqing looked at Shi Jin and said calmly, "As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt its debtor. I originally only wanted to find Zuoqiu to settle my grievances, but since you are all so stubborn, then don't blame me!"

As he spoke, Gu Yuanqing raised his hand and tossed the Lieshan Seal into the air. As it rose with the wind, it grew larger and larger, and in an instant, it transformed into a giant mountain that pressed down.

This top-tier Dao artifact from Demon God Mountain truly unleashed its power after Gu Yuanqing reached the Chaotic Undying Realm!
Shi Jin's expression changed completely. He was, after all, a cultivator who had undergone three tribulations of the Heavenly Transformation Realm, but at this moment he felt incredibly insignificant.

The falling mountain carried immense force; even before it had fully descended, its momentum had already shattered the outermost barrier of the entire formation.

He roared, "Activate the formation! Fully activate the mountain-protecting formation!"

In an instant, the earth trembled, and the power of the superior spiritual veins underground was completely drawn out and poured into the Myriad Blades Formation.

The Yin-Yang Puppet at the center immediately opened its eyes, and the Holy Heaven Divine Spear that had been hovering above Shi Jin's head suddenly flew out and fell into the puppet's hand.

Then the puppet soared into the sky, becoming the core of the entire formation. All the power of the formation was added to the Yin-Yang Soldier Puppet, making its strength reach the level of the Great Perfection of Yin-Yang Zhou Tian!
A faint smile appeared on Gu Yuanqing's lips. He had never come here with the sole purpose of killing Zuoqiu alone, and he had long anticipated that the Holy Heaven Sect would not yield. Therefore, the development of events was entirely under his control.

He knew that as soon as he unleashed the power of the Chaos Realm level, the power of a great cultivator from the Holy Heaven Sect of the Spirit Realm would likely descend immediately, and it would also attract the attention of other great cultivators of the Chaos Realm.

All of this was just to find a legitimate reason to take action.

Don't think this is unimportant. Unless you are strong enough to disregard the entire cultivation world, or you intend to be an enemy of the sects in the cultivation world and the spirit world, there are certain rules that you must abide by, at least on the surface!
