Chapter 213 Now it's my turn to chase you! [Please subscribe]
In this quiet, almost deathly still environment, a sudden voice unexpectedly rang in the ears of Lu Xian and Ye Fan, who were talking in hushed tones.
The two were taken aback at first, then looked at each other, and a look of surprise flashed in their eyes.
It's delivered to your door!
"Senior, where are you? Say something again..." Ye Fan lowered his voice and called out softly.
"here……"
Jiang Taixu's voice was so weak that it was like a candle flickering in the wind, barely audible, as if he would breathe his last at any moment.
Fortunately, neither Lu Xian nor Ye Fan were ordinary people; otherwise, in this environment filled with caves and chaotic echoes, it would have been difficult to discern the direction from which the sound was coming.
Lu Xian led Ye Fan, using the sound to locate the source, and slowly explored along the winding passage into another ancient mine, where there was a path.
On the rock walls on both sides, there are many stone bones that are faintly visible, as well as many fossils of prehistoric organisms, which are frozen together with Zishan Mountain.
Following the ancient path, the two soon reached its end. There was no longer a path ahead, only a smooth, jade-like purple mountain wall, like a giant mirror, clearly reflecting their figures.
Lu Xian and Ye Fan slowly approached, their figures clearly reflected on the stone wall. There should have been only two figures, but a third one appeared strangely.
Behind them was another tall and ferocious figure with a single horn between its brows, a menacing and menacing appearance, a wide mouth with fangs, six arms under its shoulders, wings on its back, and its body covered with fine scales.
"Holy crap!" Ye Fan was so shocked he almost jumped up.
Lu Xian wasn't scared by the monster, but he was almost scared by Ye Fan. He slapped Ye Fan on the head in annoyance and said in a low voice, "Don't shout! If you shout too loudly, you'll attract those things. This is just a wisp of evil thought reflected. The monster is still sealed in the divine source and hasn't woken up yet, so it's not a threat for the time being."
Ye Fan was still in shock. He looked at the purple crystal wall, then turned to look behind him. In the reflection of the purple wall, there was clearly the terrifying monster standing behind him, but in reality, there was nothing there. Just as Lu Xian had said.
"This place is too eerie..." Ye Fan muttered to himself, still shaken.
"What are you afraid of? I'll let you know if there's any danger. If you keep yelling, I'll shove you in the sand."
Lu Xian rolled his eyes, then searched the nearby rock face: "Senior, where are you?"
"Why...are you looking for me?" Jiang Taixu's voice was broken and weak. He realized that this kid seemed to be quite extraordinary. He knew a lot about the Demon Mountain as soon as he arrived.
Lu Xian followed the sound to a rough rock wall, from which Jiang Taixu's voice came.
"I heard that you possess the secret of the Dou character, so I have come here to learn it. If you are willing to teach me, I will surely help you escape this demonic mountain when I leave."
Lu Xian speaks directly and without any beating around the bush. Trying to outsmart someone like Jiang Taixu, who has lived for thousands of years, would be easy to be seen through and might even displease him. It's better to be honest and state your purpose directly.
"Your... realm... is..." Jiang Taixu asked weakly.
His body is now almost completely exhausted, with only his consciousness able to wander briefly in this demonic mountain, and he cannot maintain the projection of his consciousness for long.
Encountering Lu Xian and Ye Fan was purely accidental; they only noticed someone passing by.
"The other shore realm," Lu Xian told him truthfully.
"You... are imitating the ancient sages... cultivating a single secret realm?" Jiang Taixu pressed.
"No, I've only been practicing cultivation for half a year, and I'm using normal secret realm cultivation methods. But don't worry, don't underestimate me just because my cultivation level is low. I'm actually a cheat code. Even ancient emperors would have to bow and scrape and offer me tea. Taking you out later will be no problem at all," Lu Xian said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Taixu was speechless. This kid's strength didn't seem like much, but he had quite the nerve to boast. He was really bragging loudly!
Even in my prime, I wouldn't dare boast like this.
However, to be able to cultivate to the Other Shore Realm in just half a year is truly amazing talent. Considering that the Nine Secrets of the Human Race cannot be lost in his hands, Jiang Taixu is happy to pass them on.
As for having Lu Xian take him out, he didn't even dare to think about it.
"Come forward... I will teach you..."
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
During these three days, Jiang Taixu only demonstrated the "Fighting" Secret Technique twice on the stone wall for Lu Xian and Ye Fan: once as the starting stance and once as the "Fighting and Returning to One" stance, before falling completely silent.
He was so weak that every word he spoke seemed to exhaust all his strength, let alone perform any sacred arts.
On the third day, Lu Xian completely comprehended the secret of the word "fight".
"All things change but ultimately return to one; the greatest truths are simple; offense and defense are concentrated in one technique!"
"This supreme secret technique actually has only one form, returning to one origin, which can manifest all techniques..."
Lu Xian muttered to himself, his eyes thoughtful.
"wonderful!"
Jiang Taixu slowly awoke, uttered a single word, and then said with difficulty, "Your comprehension... is very good... above mine."
Lu Xian's lips curled up slightly, and he chuckled softly, "I also think I have pretty good comprehension skills."
Jiang Taixu: ...
"Senior, I still have some things to do. Once I'm done, I'll come back to rescue you from Demon Mountain. It shouldn't be too long."
"No need...you're too weak..." Jiang Taixu replied weakly.
"Alright, shut up and rest. I said I'd get you out of here, and I will. Consider it repaying the favor I owed you, Dou Zi Mi."
Jiang Taixu: ...
He suddenly regretted passing on the secret of the "Fighting" technique to this kid.
After Lu Xian finished speaking, he patted Ye Fan awake, who was still pondering and comprehending the Bodhi seed, and signaled that it was time for him to leave.
"Brother Lu, I haven't figured it out yet..." Ye Fan said helplessly.
"It's okay, I'll send it to you later, it's the same. You're wasting your time here without expending any energy, but I'm expending a lot."
Lu Xian was already feeling a bit heartbroken about wasting three time-travel talismans.
The two walked away, their faint conversation drifting over.
"Brother Lu, you've already mastered the 'Fighting Word Secret'? With your innate learning physique, learning new things is truly amazing!"
"Actually, I could have learned it in one glance. The reason I wasted three days was that King Jiang only performed the starting stance on the first day before fainting. He didn't wake up until the third day and was able to complete the 'Fighting' secret technique. Otherwise, I could have learned it in half an hour..."
Jiang Taixu: ...
So, I'm the one who wasted your time?
Why do I suddenly feel so angry?
Stepping out of the mine where Jiang Taixu was, Lu Xian paused briefly and raised his hand to leave a Bitter Sea Rune imprint emitting a faint light at the entrance of the mine.
This rune mark is a coordinate he left behind, which allows him to sense the direction and avoid getting lost in the intricate Purple Mountain mine. After finishing his business, he will have to come back and take Jiang Taixu out.
After that, he and Ye Fan set off again, continuing to venture deeper into the interior of Purple Mountain.
The mine tunnels here are interconnected, some large and some small. Lu Xian was only relying on his senses to approach the central area. He remembered that there was a huge palace near the central area, which was the transformation of the Wushi Zhong, and the Yuan Tian Shu was also there.
"Brother Lu, can you feel a kind of demonic call affecting us? The further we go in, the stronger this call seems to become," Ye Fan said somewhat uneasily.
"It's normal. In a place like this, nothing is surprising." Lu Xian said calmly.
As the two traveled, they encountered Yin soldiers blocking their path, as well as Yang Yi, the Holy Maiden of Yaochi, who was sealed within the Source by the Six Immortals. Ye Fan coveted the Source that sealed her, but Lu Xian forbade him to touch it, as it would be a bad deal if he incurred the wrath of Zhang Lin, who was covered in red hair.
Moreover, some touching and moving relationships truly deserve respect. Zhang Lin and Yang Yi, in a way, are a couple who have suffered a lot.
As Lu Xian walked forward, he told Ye Fan the story of this Purple Mountain, from the Immortal Emperor to the Great Emperor Wushi, and then to the later inhabitants of Purple Mountain, Zhang Lin and Yang Yi, the tomb keeper Gu Tianshu, the Immortal Phoenix Medicine, the Immortal Emperor's subordinates, and so on.
"So, this Purple Mountain is full of treasures, practically countless!" Ye Fan exclaimed in shock, not to mention the Douzi Secret and the Origin Heaven Book.
There are also divine sources gathered from the nine dragon veins, as well as immortal medicines, imperial scriptures, imperial weapons, and so on. Any one of these items would cause a sensation throughout the entire Big Dipper.
"You just realized that?"
Lu Xian's lips curled up as he chuckled, "After obtaining the Source Book, I still need to find the Divine Phoenix Elixir of Immortality. If I can capture it, it might allow Liu Shen to recover faster. And then there are the Divine Sources that seal the Undying Emperor's subordinates. We've come all this way, how can we leave empty-handed..."
Ye Fan was increasingly astonished as he listened, and said with some concern:
"Brother Lu, if you cause a ruckus here, what if those ancient races under the Undying Emperor escape? If they do, it will be disastrous; there will be widespread bloodshed..."
"Probably not." Lu Xian slowly shook his head, calmly analyzing, "First of all, there are the Great Emperor's array patterns set up here by the Great Emperor Wushi, and his bell is suppressing it. Those ancient races are unlikely to cause any trouble. Besides, as long as my God-Suppressing Tower collects them quickly enough, they will all have to stay in my tower. Once they enter my tower, even the Great Emperors cannot leave without my permission. They will be trapped inside until they die."
Lu Xian and Ye Fan continued deeper into the winding Zishan Pass.
As Lu Xian walked, the two discovered a broken stone knife and a shattered star chart, the materials of which were exactly the same as the stone knife and star chart carried by Ye Fan.
"This should have been left by Zhang Jiye, a descendant of the Yuan Tianshi who entered Zishan a thousand years ago. He met with misfortune when he arrived here, and we should not be far from where he was."
Lu Xian's expression turned slightly serious: "There might be danger nearby, so be careful. If things don't look right, I'll take you into the tower first."
As soon as Lu Xian finished speaking, Ye Fan was about to nod in response when he froze, realizing that he was being locked onto by a cold gaze.
Following the chill, a strange creature came into view, half-human and half-snake with scarlet pupils, covered in black fur, enormous in size, and exuding murderous intent.
"It's a monster from an ancient race!" Ye Fan said in a low voice with a solemn expression. "On the way to see King Jiang, there were fossils of this kind of monster. Fortunately, it wasn't humanoid. This should just be a minion."
"Whoosh!" Almost as soon as Ye Fan finished speaking, the Suppressing God Tower flew out of Lu Xian's hand like lightning.
The tower rapidly expanded, becoming a majestic pagoda, and descended upon the ancient creature, instantly showering down a dazzling curtain of light.
Lu Xian decided to strike first to prevent it from attracting more ancient creatures.
The monster moved very fast and hissed as it tried to dodge, but it was already enveloped by the light barrier of the Tower of Suppression and could not break free. The next second, it was absorbed into the tower without making a ripple.
Just as Ye Fan was about to breathe a sigh of relief upon seeing this, heavy footsteps echoed from the distant mine. The ground trembled at the sound, indicating that the approaching monster was enormous.
"We've been exposed! Speed things up!"
Lu Xian made a decisive move. With a soft shout, he stopped cautiously searching for a way to approach the central area and instead directly summoned the Devouring Demon Canopy, holding it in front of him to clear a path. He charged forward with unstoppable momentum, crashing through stone walls with a series of booming sounds, heading straight for the central area.
Lu Xian violently carved a path through the maze of mine tunnels, a sight that terrified Ye Fan, who followed closely behind him, afraid of falling behind.
The roars behind him rose and fell, and more and more ancient monsters were awakened. They moved and chased after him with thunderous footsteps. Ye Fan looked back and felt his scalp tingle. He even saw a humanoid creature, the same monster he had seen in the crystal wall before. Its whole body shimmered with silver light, and it stood indifferently among a group of monsters. Its strength must be extremely strong.
At the same time, the demonic summoning from the deepest part of Purple Mountain also intensified more than tenfold, causing people to feel dizzy and disoriented.
At this moment, the entire interior of Zishan Mountain was plunged into chaos, with terrifying roars echoing everywhere.
clang--
Suddenly, a melodious bell rang out, its sound seemingly from an ancient deity. Like an invisible force, it suppressed all the restlessness. The ancient creatures that had been frantically chasing after the prehistoric beings instantly stopped in their tracks, trembling, and dared not pursue any further.
Lu Xian's heart stirred, and he immediately rushed towards the direction from which the bell sound came. The Devouring Demon Canopy smashed through the last two stone walls, carrying him and Ye Fan into a very spacious hall.
"Buzzing!"
As soon as the Devouring Demon Canopy entered the main hall, it began to act uncontrollably. Seeing an imperial weapon, it seemed to want to revive on its own, but it was ultimately only half a piece. Seeing this, Lu Xian quickly retrieved the Devouring Demon Canopy, lest it end up fighting the Beginningless Bell...
"Brother Lu, there's a skeleton over there!" Ye Fan suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
Lu Xian looked in the direction he was pointing and saw a skeleton sitting cross-legged there with large holes in its body and a silver scroll next to it.
There were some scattered pieces of stone lining near the skeleton, so it seems that this must be Zhang Jiye.
Lu Xian strode forward and picked up the silver book. The silver book had about a hundred pages, the paper was shiny, and three ancient characters were engraved on the front of the book - Yuan Tian Shu (Book of Origin).
The Origin Book is a wondrous book that studies the terrain and celestial phenomena. It is completely different from ordinary cultivation methods and leans more towards the art of array formations.
Lu Xian flipped through a few pages, and Ye Fan curiously came over as well.
"Looking up, one observes the celestial phenomena; looking down, one observes the laws of the earth..."
"It corresponds to the celestial phenomena above and presents maps below; heaven and earth are created, and the hexagrams move in a stable manner..."
Lu Xian glanced at it casually and then tossed it to Ye Fan, saying, "This palace is safe. Ancient creatures can't get in. You stay here and don't move around. I'm going to find the Divine Phoenix Elixir of Immortality and also get revenge for being chased earlier."
Ye Fan was engrossed in reading the Origin Heaven Book, not even lifting his eyelids. He simply nodded casually and said, "Brother Lu, when you leave, just remember to come and take me with you."
Lu Xian rolled his eyes and walked out of the main hall.
They hadn't gone far when a piercing cry rang out, and dozens of ancient creatures appeared at the same time. They were all different and bizarre in appearance, and they stopped among the rocks outside the palace, their eyes gleaming with ferocity.
Lu Xian's gaze bypassed the minions and looked further into the distance, where there were some humanoid monsters, some with six arms, others with three heads and nine arms. They were imposing and stood among a large group of ancient creatures like kings, coldly watching him from afar.
Lu Xian grinned at the leading ancient creature, the Suppressing God Tower hovering above his head, and six soul rings slowly rising from beneath his feet.
Suddenly, a stirring suona sound exploded in the space, its tone high-pitched, melodious and powerful, and a faint light shield appeared outside Lu Xian's body.
He lifted his leg and strode out:
"You bastard, did you have a good time chasing me just now?"
"Now it's my turn to chase you!"
