Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 838 – Sea Serpent Qi

The moment the doomsday mirage appeared in the sky above Sha County, beams of light shot into the sky from all over the region, forming a pillar of light that disappeared into the endless apocalypse scene. Not only were there cultivators from various sects, there were also people from various races from outside this region.

This doomsday scenario was actually just the first threshold to enter the Desolation Jedi. If cultivators were unable to find any flaws in this gigantic and complex illusion world, then following the end of the mirage, these cultivators would also lose the chance to enter the Desolation Jedi.

In fact, in the past when the Desolation Jedi had opened, about sixty to seventy percent of the cultivators that hoped to enter this stage had already died.

Now, Yang Junshan was facing an illusion restriction that made him a little surprised, to the point that even with his fine and acute Spiritual Sense and Dianthus, he almost fell for it.

“It is actually a dual level illusion, but this is a very rare one. No wonder the illusion, which is like a mirage, is able to stop a large portion of the cultivators from entering the Desolation Jedi!”

The moment Yang Junshan entered the Mirage, he broke through the combined attacks of Yan Qinxi, Yang Tiangang, Yang Junhao, Yang Junping and the rest who were rushing in from all directions. The scene in front of him changed, and a door appeared.

When he opened the door, what appeared behind it was indeed the kind of desolate, lonely, boundless, and deathly aura that slanted out when the Desolation Jedi opened it. Right after, a boundless yellow-brown colored region appeared, and within this region stood two extremely weathered stone platforms, mountains, barren hills, and the like.

At the same time, he spread out his spiritual sense to observe his surroundings, and actually did not discover any inklings of the illusion world for a while. It was only when he was about to increase his speed that Yang Junshan, who was extremely sensitive to the contact of the earth, finally discovered something amiss with the ground beneath his feet.

The ground here was also filled with soil elemental energy, but due to the effects of soil, sand and rocks, roots and the like, it was impossible for there to be such a balanced distribution of soil elemental energy. Even though this was the Desolation Jedi, and the soil was so even that there were no sand or rocks, plants or tendrils, there would still be soil slabs, not to mention that there would occasionally be some weathered topography appearing on this desolate land.

Yang Junshan hurriedly spread out his consciousness which had thinned out since then. At the same time, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and his eyes that were as white as frost seemed to have lost the existence of his eyes. He immediately realized that he was still living in an illusory realm, which caused his expression to become extremely unsightly.

Of course, this did not mean that the illusion was powerful enough to change the flow of time, but rather, it was capable of affecting the senses of the cultivator. The Mirage that was capable of covering more than half of the Sand Country was naturally an extremely brilliant illusion, and Yang Junshan was afraid that he had already missed the opening of the Desolation Jedi when he was walking in the illusion world.

He took ouhree foot long yellow apricot formation flag from his storage ring, and then scattered a few of the formations around him. Then, he shook the Chess in his hand, and a layer of orange colored mist started to rise.

After that, a mystical scene unfolded in front of Yang Junshan. The scene three feet in front of him shattered like a mirror, and from the aura emitted from the hole, it seemed to be the same as the surrounding area. However, Yang Junshan knew that there was no mistake this time, and he was about to pass through the door and enter into the true Desolation Jedi.

But just as he was about to raise his foot, Yang Junshan’s spiritual consciousness suddenly detected something strange. The Chess in his hand subconsciously swept the flag, and a strand of invisible, colorless thing was collected into the almond yellow flag.

Looking at the Chess that started to show signs of instability, Yang Junshan was ecstatic, and thought: “Could this be … A strand of Sea Serpent Qi? ”

Although it was just one strand, it was at least stronger than some fog. Even the jade beads produced by the Emerald Lake might not be comparable to it, at least the dozen or so jade beads in Yang Junshan’s hands could not compare to this strand of Sea Serpent Qi.

The only pity was that this sliver of sea serpent gas was too little. Once it was used to set up a formation, it would be constantly consumed until it finally disappeared.

Yang Junshan even thought that he should stay here and continue breaking through the illusions to gather the Sea Serpent Qi, but this thought only flashed through his mind and was immediately abandoned. With Desolation Jedi right in front of him, the rare treasure that appeared was the real heaven and earth material, compared to it, some of the Sea Serpent Qi seemed insignificant.

“Hopefully, I didn’t waste too much time in the illusion world!”

Just a few steps away from him, he could already sense that at least two rays of light had fallen into a dangerous place. It was clear that after the entire cultivation world had gathered to measure the Adept Realm Cultivator, Yang Junshan’s cultivation and strength might not necessarily be top-notch after entering the Desolation Jedi, at least in terms of speed at which he was able to make it to the top of the ranks.

At a certain location in the Desolation Jedi, two beams of light were descending in the same direction from different directions, but at this time, there were already six or seven cultivators who had gathered at this place from the Profound Handle to the Supreme Profound Handle.

“Junior Brother Sheng, Senior Brother Gu, you two have come!”

A few Spiritual Masters of Purple Wind Sect that had already arrived at the scene greeted the two people who had arrived at almost the same time.

The Adept Tai Gang that was called Junior Brother Sheng glanced at the crowd after landing on the light, and said with a frown: “Why are there so few people?”

Without waiting for anyone to answer, the Senior Brother Gu who arrived at the same time as him said: “Junior Brother Sheng, don’t worry. After all, it has only been an incense’s time since the Desolation Jedi opened, and perhaps other disciples of our sect are rushing over, not to mention that the Mirage Illusion is much stronger than the one recorded in the past!”

Junior Brother Sheng nodded his head, and then said: “Let’s wait for the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, if no one comes again in the future, we will have to move. I believe that fellow disciples know, that the stronger the illusion of the Mirage, the more precious the Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasures that will be born in Desolation Jedi will be, and perhaps the most recorded 24 treasures will appear in history.”

“No way!”

“Really?”

“It might actually be possible!” A Purple Wind Sect cultivator who was also at the same level of cultivation said in a deep voice, “According to the records of the sect, the number of Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasures that have been activated from twelve to twenty-four are roughly divided into four levels. Ordinarily it would be twelve or sixteen, but at this time, the Mirage Mirage is the weakest, and the number of cultivators that can break into it is the highest instead. When about forty to fifty percent of the cultivators are eliminated by the illusions, that means that there are at least twenty Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasures that have been bred in the Desolation Jedi, so if nearly eighty percent of the cultivators are blocked outside the illusions, then the number of Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasures would be the most twenty-four.”

A young cultivator looked at the fellow sect disciple who had just arrived and counted. He said with some confusion, “That’s not right Martial Uncle. Right now, we have ten Spiritual Masters. This should be about half of the number of people sent by our sect, right?”

One of the Heavenly Dipper Sovereigns said with a face full of pride: “Apprentice Martial Nephew, don’t forget that we are Purple Wind Sect cultivators! The elimination rate that Senior Brother Yuan mentioned refers to other people, while my Purple Wind Sect has ruled over the Xi Zhou for many years, and the Desolation Jedi has already been opened countless of times, so how can we not have a way to solve the mirage’s illusion? Furthermore, all of the disciples of the sect who are qualified to participate in the Desolation Jedi’s journey must have at least the cultivation of Profound Constellation Realm, so only half of us have entered the danger zone now, that’s truly strange. If it was in the past, then not more than sixty to seventy percent of the people who entered the danger zone were, otherwise, why would our Purple Wind Sect take at least a quarter of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasures! ”

The disciple who was taught a lesson not only did not feel ashamed, but he was also full of excitement and pride, and said: “So that’s how it is, but this disciple is too shallow. This time, we will also definitely snatch away six or more Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasures s, and will absolutely not lose face for our sect!”

When the extremely elders of the Purple Wind Sect heard this, they all smiled, and looked at this junior from the Profound Constellation Realm with a few more emotions of satisfaction.

It was at this time that Junior Brother Sheng said: “It’s about time, we can’t wait any longer. Historically, those who have entered the Desolation Jedi have all been extremely lucky, and directly met with the example of a Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasures. We need to immediately take action.

Junior brother Sheng and Junior brother Zhao will protect Junior Brother Xiao and will first bring Junior Brother Wei and Yuchi Hua to look for the inheritance site. As for the rest of us, Junior Apprentice-Brother Shi and Junior Apprentice Brother Sun will form a team with your Heavenly Dipper, and as Junior Brother Zheng and Junior Apprentice Brother Sun can form a team, the three of us will search the places that are most likely to have Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasures according to the map left behind by the previous generations of the sect. Oh right, there’s one more thing, Junior Brother Sheng, give your blood seal to Junior Brother Zheng!

“Senior Brother, why are you …” Junior brother Sheng’s face changed as if he was extremely unwilling.

“Junior brother Sheng, I know that you and Junior brother Huang have the best relationship. Junior brother Huang was injured by Daoist Ziyuan and lost the hope of advancing into the Taoist Realm, so we wanted to take revenge for him, but this time, the inheritance of our sect’s ancestor is extremely important, you and Junior brother Zhao must take responsibility for protecting him. As for Ziyuan’s avatar, it is extremely possible that it was for the wind calming bead, but you better not get involved, once we meet him, naturally we will not let him off!”

Junior Apprentice Brother Sheng was about to argue, but Senior Brother Gu didn’t give him any more chances. “Let’s do it this way. Good luck to all of you!”
