I became an immortal in the mountains

Chapter 726 Found you!

Within the Shengtian Sect.

The one who was most uneasy was naturally Zuoqiu.

When he saw Gu Yuanqing and the others, he felt uneasy, but also somewhat resentful. How could these natives, who were originally below him, have reached a level that he could hardly match in just three hundred years?

The events of that year already caused a major setback, and now people are coming after us again.

Fortunately, being within the sect, there was no danger to his life. As for what might happen in the future, that would have to wait.

He had just finished replying to the elder when he heard his senior brother, who was also guarding the array's core, say, "Hey, Junior Brother Zuo, you're really lucky. You actually managed to form such a grudge while going through the trial path. It's practically like hitting the jackpot. A great cultivator at the Yin-Yang Realm!"

Zuoqiu stared ahead and sneered, "So what if he's a master of Yin-Yang cultivation? I don't believe he'd dare barge in."

"Even if you don't dare to force your way in, you'll have to be careful when you go out in the future. The Yin-Yang Realm might just be an avatar today, and the real body might not even be here."

Zuoqiu's expression was rather grim; he knew he had to be careful when he went out in the future.

As one of the parties involved, he knew many things that ordinary people did not.

Two hundred years ago, Li Miaoxuan appeared and attacked the sect leader Shi Jin.

Subsequently, someone within the sect was found to be controlled by a soul imprint, and Shi Jin was once again injured by a secret technique from a distance.

After that, news of Li Shi'an and Ji Dai spread from Chiyuan Continent, and the sect's elders and disciples suffered casualties.

Since then, he has rarely gone out, always feeling that a crisis may come at any time, and thus he has missed many opportunities.

The senior brother continued, "Speaking of which, the Twelve Realms of Ding are truly full of talent. It is said that Li Miaoxuan has already achieved the Great Perfection of Yin-Yang Circulation and is stationed in the outer realm. Gu Yuanqing has also achieved Yin-Yang. The others are probably all Celestial Beings as well. The Lingxu Sect has really made a fortune by producing such talents from a mere floating realm."

During their conversation, the senior brother suddenly glared at them: "He really dares to make a move?"

The two looked up and saw a huge mountain that blotted out the sky. The oppressive force of the massive object made their breath catch in their throats.

"What level of magic weapon is this, that it can transform into such a large form?"

The mountain formed by this great seal seemed to cover the entire sect's territory within a radius of two thousand miles, and this attack seemed to be about to destroy the entire territory!
Upon hearing the sect leader's order, he immediately activated the magic array, using his mind to guide the earth's spiritual energy to accelerate its circulation.

Then they saw the Yin-Yang Soldier Puppet, carrying the power of a magic array, soar into the sky.

It wielded the Holy Heavenly Spear, transforming into a spear shadow as it surged upstream, followed by thousands of other weapons.

Its imposing power was overwhelming, leaving behind cracks and fissures even in the void.

The power of this strike naturally broke through the limit, almost reaching the level of Chaos Heaven!
From this perspective alone, there aren't many people in either the cultivation world or the spirit world who could break through the Holy Heaven Sect's stronghold.

Even if this is just a lower sect, and even if it has Yin-Yang cultivators, it is basically impossible for them to run wild in the Holy Heaven Sect!

Or rather, the twenty-two top powers—the three holy lands, the nine righteous sects, and the one palace, two religions, three halls, and four sects of the heretical path—each have similar magic arrays at their respective sect locations.

These are the foundations that ensure their safety even when their sect suffers a major setback and their strength is diminished.

The previous Lingxu Sect headquarters also employed similar methods.

When Li Miaoxuan attacked Shi Jin, she only chose to intercept him outside. After he fled back to his camp, she stopped, and that was for this reason.

Shi Jin knew perfectly well that the other party's cultivation was superior to his own. If they were outside, he would either have already fled or killed Zuoqiu with a single palm strike, lowering his stance to try and avoid further conflict.

The fact that I can speak freely within the mountain gate today without much fear is also because of the magic array.

Of course, unless absolutely necessary, he was also unwilling to make a blood feud with the Yin-Yang Grand Master. After all, there would always be a time when he had to leave the mountain sect's residence. So at first, he also wanted to settle things peacefully, but unfortunately, the other party had no such intention at all. As the sect leader of the lower sect, he did not dare to lose face for the sect.

That's why this battle happened.

In Shi Jin's view, there were only two possible outcomes: either the opponent would be killed by the magic array, or the opponent would escape without achieving anything.

He might be somewhat afraid of being ambushed, but in this face-to-face battle, he had not considered any third possibility. This was due to his absolute trust in the Holy Heaven Sect's formation, a situation that had occurred frequently throughout history.

However, the moment he saw Gu Yuanqing make his move, that confidence vanished instantly.

When he looked at Gu Yuanqing at this moment, it was as if he were seeing the master or elder of the upper sect, no, it should be the same feeling as seeing the patriarch.

The power of this great seal surpassed that of any magical artifact he had ever seen.

As the sect leader in charge of the mountain-protecting formation, he could feel that the entire formation was under unprecedented pressure. The foundation artifacts were trembling, and the flow of energy from the underground veins seemed to be suppressed.

He placed all his hopes on this military puppet and the Holy Heavenly Spear.

These two are among the most important methods of the Holy Heaven Sect!

Moreover, once these two items are truly activated, the ancestral master of the spirit realm will surely sense it.

If we can just hold on for a little while, we can turn the tide!
However, with his mere Celestial Realm cultivation, how could he possibly estimate Gu Yuanqing's strength?

The strength of this clone has remained at the ordinary Hun Tian level since it left Qian Yuan Island until recently, because this is enough to deal with most things in the cultivation world.

Now that Gu Yuanqing has come to the Holy Heaven Sect, he knows he might have to face off against the sect's experts. So why would he do nothing?

A hard-fought battle is not Gu Yuanqing's style.

Since they've come seeking revenge and settling scores, shouldn't they at least have a satisfying end?
So along the way, the strength of his clone has been constantly improving. When he finally made a move, the power of this clone was almost one-eighth of that of his original body!
That is to say, it has already climbed to the level of being immortal.

In addition to the divine power of the Lieshan Seal itself, the power of this seemingly casual move has actually far exceeded the limits of this formation.

The puppet of military strategy and the Holy Heaven Divine Spear, on which Shi Jin placed his hopes, were suppressed and fell from the sky before their power even reached the main body of the Lieshan Seal.

Countless sharp blades converged and formed a mountain that was formed from the Seal of Mountains. In the same way, they did not even penetrate the air currents flowing around the Seal of Mountains, and fell down like raindrops.

Shi Jin coughed up a mouthful of blood.

Both the Puppet Master and the Holy Heavenly Spear were controlled by his divine sense, so they were naturally the most severely injured.

I witnessed this scene.

The elders of the Holy Heaven Sect were greatly alarmed.

"Sect Master, are you okay?"

"How is this possible?"

"This power... Could this person not be an ordinary Yin-Yang cultivator, at least a cultivator who has achieved the Yin-Yang cycle, or even a Grand Master of Chaos!"

Their power is too weak; the vast majority are merely at the Void Realm. For them, Yin and Yang and Chaos Realm are too distant concepts to be clearly distinguished. They simply rely on instinctive comparisons and guesses.

Even Shi Jin, with his cultivation at the third level of the Heavenly Transformation Realm, couldn't discern Gu Yuanqing's true strength. The only certainty was that they could no longer hold him off; their sect's array formations and trump cards, which they relied on, proved incredibly fragile against the opponent's magical treasures.

"Sect Master, awaken the Ancestor, or it will be too late!"

An elder shouted.

Shi Jin dared not hesitate any longer and quickly crushed a jade tablet.

At the same time, they all unleashed their full power to activate the mountain formation.

All seventy-two blood coffins were opened, and one after another, celestial blood corpses, as if they had been refined into weapons, soared into the sky.

But it seemed to be completely useless against the Mountain Seal; all it did was slightly slow down its descent.

The layers of magic arrays shattered one after another, and the breach of each defensive line meant that time was running out.

At this critical moment, within the forbidden area of ​​the Holy Heaven Sect, the mummified corpse sitting cross-legged in a cave has awakened.

This person is named Han Yifei. In terms of seniority, he is Shi Jin's grandmaster. He possesses the strength of Yin-Yang Zhou Tian and is nearing the end of his lifespan. He sealed himself in the forbidden area of ​​the lower sect's mountain gate using a secret method, which can be considered one of the true foundations left by the sect for the lower sect.

It will not be used unless absolutely necessary.

The blood energy that had been arranged around him quickly entered Han Yifei's body, and his withered body swelled up like a balloon, rapidly regaining flesh and blood.

The yin and yang energy surged into the sky and continued to rise rapidly. Now that he had awakened, he knew that a great enemy was approaching the Holy Heaven Sect.

He burst out of the cave, sending rocks flying everywhere. Standing in the void, he roared, "Who dares to cause trouble in my Holy Heaven Sect?"

As soon as he spoke, he felt a massive mountain-shaped seal descend upon him, and felt its unparalleled power.

Han Yifei's eyes widened, and he cursed angrily, "Who the hell provoked such an enemy? Are they trying to wake me up to die?"

Shi Jin stood in the void, activating the mountain-protecting formation while urgently calling out, "Uncle-Master, quickly think of a solution?"

"This is a Dao artifact created by the Great Cultivator of Chaos, what can I do?" Despite saying this, Han Yifei immediately took over the formation and frantically fed himself pills, his strength rapidly recovering.

The addition of a master of Yin-Yang cultivation has significantly enhanced the power of the mountain-protecting formation.

Outside the base.

Li Chengyi and the others stood behind Gu Yuanqing.

Gu Yuanqing watched the Lieshan Seal fall with his hands behind his back.

This scene also reveals the difference between the top sects in the cultivation world and the sects in the Linglong Realm.

Even though he didn't use his full strength, this technique was already at the level of being able to survive in chaos.

If this seal were placed in the Linglong Realm, destroying a sect's headquarters would be a matter of moments.

However, this was only because all the experts had gone to the lower sects of the Spirit Realm, but they managed to slow down the speed at which the Lieshan Seal fell by a little through the magic array.

"There's even a Yin-Yang Zhou Tian cultivator hiding here?" Gu Yuanqing raised an eyebrow, having not noticed before the cultivator appeared.

"Yin-Yang Zhou Tian Realm? Is Father referring to that person?" Li Chengyi pointed to Han Yifei, who had just appeared.

Gu Yuanqing nodded slightly: "Indeed, it seems his lifespan is running out. It appears that the Holy Heaven Sect has left behind quite a few tricks for this sect!"

Li Chengyi was secretly startled, feeling that he had become a bit arrogant after achieving Yin-Yang mastery, and had just said that he would take the lead.

This is due to a misunderstanding of oneself after one's strength has increased, and also a confusion about the difference between the Linglong Realm and the Cultivation Realm.

Even the protective formations of small sects can normally block cultivators who are one or two levels higher than themselves. Not to mention, how could a top-tier evil sect that has been passed down for countless years not leave behind its methods in the inheritance grounds of its lower sects!
However, there were at least several thousand arrays and restrictions that I had just seen. If I had rashly rushed in, I would probably have been trapped and killed before I even reached the enemy.

"It's been dragging on for a while now, so let's put in a little more effort!" Gu Yuanqing smiled calmly, then pressed down in the air.

The mountain seal, which had transformed into a mountain, suddenly plummeted a hundred feet.

Han Yifei and Shi Jin of the Holy Heaven Sect both shuddered, and blood flowed from their seven orifices at the same time.

Han Yifei forced himself to stay calm, cursing, "Aren't those old fogies in the Spirit Realm going to make a move? Are they really going to watch the lower sect perish? I'd say you, surnamed Shi, are an idiot too. Since you knew the other side might have a Chaos Realm cultivator, why didn't you contact the upper sect in the Spirit Realm beforehand? Even if you didn't contact them beforehand, didn't you know to stall for time?"

Shi Jin dared not respond, but instead frantically activated the magic array, drawing upon the power of the earth's veins.

Gu Yuanqing was slightly surprised. It seemed that even he had underestimated the Holy Heaven Sect. His attack just now had not been able to defeat them!
"Then add three more points of strength!"

Gu Yuanqing's expression was slightly indifferent. If he added three more points of strength, and the opponent suddenly collapsed, it was very likely that the entire area within three thousand miles would be reduced to nothingness under this seal, and no cultivator below the Chaos Realm would be able to survive.

He pressed down again.

The nine Daoist seals within the Lieshan Seal, imprinted with this power, instantly shone brightly, their countless runes gleaming.

The stalemate that had been barely maintained due to Han Yifei's arrival was suddenly broken.

Han Yifei and Shi Jin both coughed up blood and fell to the ground with their heads tilted back.

The disciples of each formation base were also severely injured, their souls scattered, and their consciousness blurred.

The entire defensive formation suddenly collapsed.

The mountain seal shattered the magic array barrier with overwhelming force.

Just then, a furious roar rang out.

"Who dares to attack my Holy Heaven Sect?"

As the words were spoken, a blade cleaved through the void and slashed upwards, heading straight for the Mountain Seal.

"So they've finally made their move?" Gu Yuanqing remained calm, showing no surprise whatsoever. As the Lieshan Seal broke through the Holy Heaven Sect's formation, the Void Heavenly Eye had already been activated.

His gaze was like lightning, and his divine sense swept across the Holy Heaven Sect like a net.

"Found you!" Gu Yuanqing murmured to himself.

Zuoqiu, from within the Holy Heaven Sect, was also injured due to the shattered magic array. Watching the falling mountain crush him completely, he was terrified, believing that death was inevitable.

Then, seeing the flash of the blade, the pressure on his body eased slightly. He knew that it was the senior from the Holy Heaven Sect who had made the move, and he was overjoyed, thinking to himself that he had escaped another calamity!
But the next second, he suddenly felt gazes and divine thoughts falling on him.

He felt every hair on his body stand on end, and a sense of extreme danger rose within him.

Before he could react, a rift appeared in the void, from which a giant hand formed of true essence reached out, instantly capturing and suppressing him, pulling him into the spatial rift...
