Chapter 691: How magnificent and spectacular are the three complete states?
"Unfortunately, in that ancient great war, the Purple Mansion Immortal Court was breached by the combined forces of the Witch and Demon races, and nearly half of the thirteen states were destroyed."
"Now, the fact that there are still seven or eight intact pieces of the continent is already a stroke of luck."
boom!
The words of the Holy Mother Wudang struck Yang Jian's mind like a thunderbolt.
Thirteen states!
At its peak, there were thirteen such continents here?
Yang Jian felt his breathing become somewhat rapid.
These seven remaining continents alone were enough to leave him utterly astonished.
How magnificent and spectacular must those thirteen complete states have been?
He simply couldn't imagine it!
Is this the work of an ancient, powerful being?
Compared to them, my previous self-satisfaction at killing a Golden Immortal with a single axe strike is simply a joke.
"Alright, stop reminiscing."
The Holy Mother of Wudang interrupted everyone's thoughts.
"The Blood Sea and the Western Cult have already entered."
With a sweep of her gaze, she discovered that in another star field, the Asura Clan's White Bone Lotus Platform and the Western Sect's Nine-Rank Merit Golden Lotus had also appeared.
They, too, were stunned by the sight before them.
"Although this Purple Mansion Immortal Court is dilapidated, it must still contain countless treasures that the Eastern King Duke plundered back then."
A sharp glint flashed in the eyes of the Holy Mother of Wudang.
"We can't let them beat us to it."
"This place is too big. It would be more efficient if we split up and each look for opportunities on our own."
"We finally met up here again."
She offered her suggestions.
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.
"Okay, let's do it this way!"
Bixiao was the first to respond; she had been itching to do it for a long time.
"Big sister, Qiongxiao, let's go! Let's go take a look over there!"
She grabbed Yunxiao and Qiongxiao and prepared to fly towards a continent that exuded rich water-elemental spiritual energy.
Master Yu Ding also cupped his hands in greeting to the crowd.
"My fellow disciples, I shall take my leave now."
After saying that, he transformed into a streak of sword light and flew towards another continent where sword energy soared into the sky.
The Holy Mother of Wudang glanced at the very center of the continent, the largest and most spiritually rich, where the outlines of celestial palaces could be faintly seen.
She gave instructions to the remaining Yunxiao and Yang Jian.
"The Central Celestial Palace is the most dangerous place; do not approach it lightly."
"Junior Sister Yunxiao, I'm entrusting Yang Jian to your care."
After saying that, she disappeared from the spot.
In the blink of an eye, only Yang Jian and Yunxiao remained on the spot.
Yang Jian stared at the empty starry sky, momentarily stunned.
So, they've split up and are acting separately?
He subconsciously looked at Fairy Yunxiao beside him.
"Uncle-Master Yunxiao, then we..."
Looking at Yang Jian's slightly bewildered expression, Yunxiao couldn't help but smile.
Her gentle and charming smile was like a spring breeze, instantly calming Yang Jian's heart, which had been pounding wildly with shock.
"Nephew Yang Jian, there's no need to be nervous."
Yunxiao's voice was soft and melodious, carrying a reassuring power.
"Senior Sister Wudang and the others have always been decisive and efficient."
"Now that they've all gone to seek their own opportunities, it's time for us to set off as well."
As she spoke, she turned her head and looked at a continent not far away, shrouded in thick immortal mist.
That continent, while not the largest of the seven, exuded an exceptionally pure and ethereal spiritual energy.
"Let's go there."
Yunxiao stretched out her slender finger and pointed to that continent.
"I can sense that the aura of the laws there is quite familiar to me."
"and……"
She paused, a strange light flashing in her beautiful eyes.
"I seemed to feel a very familiar and warm call from there."
Familiar? Familiar?
Yang Jian was somewhat curious upon hearing this.
Uncle Yunxiao, have you been here before?
However, he didn't ask any further questions.
Since Uncle Yunxiao had made his decision, he naturally followed his arrangements.
"Alright, I'll do as my master says," Yang Jian said respectfully.
To be honest, he felt a great sense of relief at being able to be in a group with Uncle Yunxiao.
Among the Three Immortal Maidens, Bixiao is too impulsive, while Qiongxiao is somewhat taciturn.
Only this Martial Aunt Yunxiao possesses the most gentle and composed personality, and her strength is the most unfathomable among the three sisters.
With her by my side, I feel incredibly safe.
This isn't an adventure; it's practically clinging to a super-thick thigh!
Yang Jian thought to himself with a smug satisfaction.
"Let's go."
Yunxiao smiled slightly at Yang Jian, then transformed into a white beam of light and flew towards the cloud-shrouded continent.
Yang Jian quickly steered his escape light and followed closely behind.
The two walked one after the other, leaving two magnificent trails in the vast starry sky.
Just as they were about to fly over that continent.
Yunxiao's figure suddenly stopped.
"Uncle-Master, what's wrong?" Yang Jian asked, somewhat puzzled.
Yunxiao didn't turn around; she simply gazed quietly at the rolling sea of clouds ahead.
She stretched out her right hand, and a golden auspicious cloud slowly appeared in her palm.
In the center of those auspicious clouds, a golden, bucket-shaped magical treasure appeared and disappeared.
Indeed, it was her treasure for attaining enlightenment, the Primordial Golden Cauldron!
A terrifying pressure, powerful enough to sever the three flowers on an immortal's head and extinguish the five qi in their chest, emanated from the Hunyuan Golden Cauldron.
"Nephew Yang Jian, stay close to me."
Yunxiao's voice became somewhat solemn.
"This Purple Mansion Immortal Court may seem like an unclaimed land, but in reality, it holds a hidden secret."
"Each continent is a fortress in itself, and it's not easy to get onto it."
The words fell.
The sea of clouds ahead, which had been calm, suddenly began to churn violently!
Countless colossal beasts, formed from pure innate spiritual energy, emerged from the sea of clouds, their ferocious heads poking out!
These giant beasts come in various shapes and sizes, some resembling qilin, others like real dragons, and still others like fierce tigers with wings on their backs.
They all exuded a terrifying aura no less than that of a Golden Immortal, or even a Taiyi Golden Immortal!
"roar!"
Hundreds of giant cloud beasts simultaneously let out a deafening roar and pounced on Yang Jian and Yunxiao!
That display of power was simply earth-shattering!
Yang Jian's expression changed, and he subconsciously prepared to unleash his mountain-splitting axe.
However, Yunxiao, who was standing in front of him, didn't even lift his eyelids.
She simply tossed the Hunyuan Golden Bucket in her hand forward.
"receive."
A single, cool word was softly uttered from her lips.
next second.
The golden Hunyuan Golden Cauldron grew taller in the wind, and in an instant, it transformed into a gigantic golden cauldron that blotted out the sky!
A beam of golden light burst forth from the mouth of the bucket!
An irresistible, terrifying suction force instantly enveloped the entire sea of clouds!
Those hundreds of ferocious cloud beasts, whose strength was comparable to that of a Taiyi Golden Immortal, could not even put up a fight against that terrifying suction force.
They let out terrified howls as their bodies were uncontrollably sucked into the enormous golden bucket.
Along with it, the entire sea of clouds, spanning tens of thousands of miles, was completely absorbed!
Before and after, it was only a breath's time.
The once perilous starry sky instantly returned to calm.
The Hunyuan Golden Cauldron flashed with light, shrinking back to the size of a palm before flying back into Yunxiao's hand.
Yang Jian stood behind Yunxiao, watching this scene, his mouth once again forming an "O" shape.
It was over in seconds?
Hundreds of monsters, each with strength comparable to a Taiyi Golden Immortal, were instantly killed by Uncle Yunxiao in a single move?
He felt that his understanding of the word "powerful" had been refreshed once again.
Is this the true power personally passed down by a sage?
Is this the power of a top-tier innate spiritual treasure?
That's...that's incredible!
Yunxiao retrieved the Hunyuan Golden Cauldron as if he had done nothing of importance.
She turned her head and saw Yang Jian's dumbfounded expression, and couldn't help but chuckle again.
"Come on, junior apprentice, stop daydreaming."
"Huh? Oh, okay, sure!"
Yang Jian then seemed to wake from a dream and hurriedly followed.
In his heart, he admired this Uncle Yunxiao to the point of complete devotion.
With such a gentle, beautiful, and powerful senior uncle protecting us, this treasure hunt is going to be incredibly fun!
The two traversed the empty starry sky and finally, successfully landed on the cloud-shrouded continent.
The moment they landed, a surge of innate spiritual energy, so dense it was almost tangible, rushed towards them.
Yang Jian simply took a light breath.
He felt his internal magical power boiling over, and the bottleneck that had troubled him for so long—the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm—was showing signs of loosening!
"Such a rich spiritual energy!"
Yang Jian's eyes were filled with surprise.
"This place is practically a sacred ground for cultivation!"
"This continent was called Yingzhou in ancient times."
Yunxiao's voice rang out beside him.
"It is the place used by the Eastern King Duke to cultivate all kinds of rare flowers and herbs, and innate spiritual roots."
"Let's search carefully; perhaps we'll find something unexpected."
After saying that, she took a step forward and walked into the lush, boundless primeval forest.
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian's spirits lifted, and he quickly followed.
Upon entering this primeval forest, Yang Jian was instantly stunned by the sight before him.
In the forest, rare spiritual herbs that had disappeared for countless millennia in the primordial world were everywhere!
That plant, which looks like a little person and is crystal clear all over, isn't it the legendary Jade Marrow Grass, which takes 100,000 years to mature?
And that small tree, bearing nine crimson fruits, exudes a rich fire elemental energy. Could it be the ancient treasure, the Nine Yang Fire Fruit?
Yang Jian felt like a mouse that had fallen into a rice jar, with so many eyes that he could barely see anything.
Any one of these spiritual herbs and fruits, if placed in the primordial world, would be enough to cause countless Golden Immortals and powerful beings to frantically vie for them!
But here, it just grows so casually by the roadside?
"Nephew, don't just watch, get to work!"
Seeing Yang Jian's naive and unsophisticated demeanor, Yunxiao smiled and offered a reminder.
"These are all ownerless items; whoever finds them has a share."
"Huh? Oh, oh!"
Yang Jian then realized what was happening, and a look of wild joy appeared on his face.
He stopped being polite and directly used his storage magic treasure to start frantically looting!
I want this too, and I can't let go of that either!
He stopped being polite and directly used his storage magic treasure to start frantically looting!
I want this too, and I can't let go of that either!
But at that very moment...
Suddenly, ripples spread across the void not far away.
Several figures arrived together and landed at the edge of the forest.
Leading the group was a Grand Luo Golden Immortal with a profound aura. Behind him were several Taiyi Golden Immortals, all of whom were looking at the spiritual herbs scattered all over the ground with shining eyes.
The leading Golden Immortal glanced around, and when he saw Yunxiao's face clearly, he was first stunned, then a smile spread across his face.
"So you are Fairy Yunxiao of the Jie Sect. My apologies for not recognizing you."
He cupped his hands in a gesture of respect towards the clouds, but his gaze greedily swept over the spiritual herbs that Yang Jian had picked.
"Fairy, this Yingzhou is an unclaimed land; whoever finds the treasures will have a share."
"Fairy Yunxiao, would you be so kind as to share a few with us, so that our trip will not have been in vain?"
Yang Jian stopped what he was doing and gave the man a cold glance.
"snort."
A disdainful snort escaped his lips.
"You think you're worthy?"
The smile on the Great Luo Golden Immortal's face instantly froze, then turned into a gloomy expression.
He stared intently at Yunxiao, believing it was her intention, and his voice turned icy cold.
"Yunxiao! Don't push your luck!"
"Don't think that just because you're from a sect of saints, you can be arrogant and look down on all cultivators in the world!"
The Taiyi Golden Immortals behind him were also enraged, their magical power surging, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
They were all experts in their own right, and the Great Luo Golden Immortal was even a regional overlord. How could they have been so humiliated by a junior?
Yunxiao frowned slightly, about to speak.
Yang Jian stepped forward and shielded her behind him.
"Uncle-Master, let me do it."
Yang Jian looked at the three furious men opposite him with a calm and indifferent expression.
In his eyes, these people were nothing more than ants.
Yunxiao looked at Yang Jian, who was standing in front of her, and a smile appeared on her gentle face.
"Alright, then you can do it, junior disciple."
She nodded slightly and took a half-step back with great interest.
Yang Jian is the personal disciple of the eldest disciple Niu Ben, and he has now reached the late stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
She also took this opportunity to see how much of her junior brother's teachings this junior disciple had truly inherited.
"Hahaha! A mere brat dares to stand up for the disciples of a sage?"
When the leading Golden Immortal saw Yang Jian step forward, he was first taken aback, then burst into wild laughter as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.
"They really don't know how to write the word 'death'!"
"Brother, why waste words with him! Kill this brat first, then we'll seize the treasure!"
