Cultivating immortality relies on spatial abilities; defying fate to become the protagonist.

Chapter 163 Immortal Weapon
Upon hearing Xing Bai's words, Gu Shihan, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but look puzzled and quickly asked, "Immortal spiritual energy? But the place we are in now is filled with rich spiritual energy. Could it be that this immortal spiritual energy is different from ordinary spiritual energy? And does it come from the legendary immortal realm?"

Xingbai nodded and explained softly, "That's right, the spiritual energy of immortals is indeed different from ordinary spiritual energy. In the Spirit Realm, those cultivators who have gone through countless hardships and successfully broken through their cultivation bottlenecks to ascend must enter the Immortal Spirit Pool and use the magical power of the pool water to completely transform the spiritual energy they originally contained into immortal spiritual energy."

Only by completing this transformation can they truly adapt to the environment and rules of the Immortal Realm. Otherwise, even if they are fortunate enough to arrive in the Immortal Realm, they will be no different from mortals, unable to unleash powerful immortal techniques, let alone establish themselves there.

Gu Shihan frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "Xingbai, this immortal energy doesn't seem to be of much use to me. But then again, where there is immortal energy, could it be that the legendary immortal artifacts are hidden? I vaguely remember that Master once mentioned that one of our important tasks in entering this Heavenly Water Secret Realm is to search for immortal artifacts."

Upon hearing this, Xingbai rolled her eyes in annoyance and muttered, "Hmph! You wish! Celestial artifacts aren't so easy to obtain. Those without celestial spiritual energy who rashly attempt to use celestial artifacts will suffer a severe backlash! You must know that to successfully activate a celestial artifact, one needs celestial spiritual energy. If one tries to force it with only their own spiritual power, an ordinary person would probably be exhausted and withered before even activating it. It would be a miracle if they could even survive!"

Upon hearing this, Gu Shihan's face showed astonishment, and she muttered to herself, "It's that terrifying? If that's the case, obtaining this immortal energy will indeed be extremely difficult!"

At this moment, Yu Tong, who was standing to the side, interjected with a look of surprise: "Sister, isn't what you're saying a bit too exaggerated? Have you forgotten that you possess quite a few immortal artifacts? Doesn't the Moon Essence Bracelet contain many of them?"

Gu Shihan chuckled awkwardly. She had actually forgotten about it; she had never bothered to check it because she couldn't use it.

Xingbai looked down into the bottomless abyss: "Hanhan, since your sect urgently needs immortal artifacts to strengthen its power, let's go and take a look together. Maybe we can find some invaluable immortal spirit stones if we're lucky."

At the bottom of the cliff, a howling wind pierced the air, producing shrill sounds as if countless demons were screaming and roaring. Thick white fog, like a heavy veil, enveloped the entire valley, making it impossible to see its true appearance.

And that faint, ethereal aura seemed to be slowly drifting out from beneath this white mist.

Gu Shihan chanted an incantation and instantly summoned Xiao Hei. Xiao Hei obediently lay down, allowing Gu Shihan to sit steadily on its broad back.

Xiao Hei spread its strong, agile wings, carrying Gu Shihan, Yu Tong, and Xing Bai, and slowly descended down the steep mountainside.

Just as they were about to approach the vast expanse of white mist, the once calm mist suddenly began to churn and surge violently, as if it had been provoked.

Little Black tried hard to steady itself, but the force was simply too strong, and it eventually lost control of its body.

Gu Shihan's heart tightened, knowing that the situation was bad. Without hesitation, she waved her sleeve and quickly sent Xiao Hei and Yu Tong into the Moon Bracelet.

Holding Xingbai close, he stood on his flying sword, trying to maintain his balance in the churning white mist.

Gu Shihan rose and fell within the white mist, unable to escape it. She seemed stuck to it, unable to go up or down. "This white mist is very strange; there must be something fishy about it!" Gu Shihan said with a serious expression.

But before she could finish speaking, the churning white mist suddenly split open with a huge gash, like a hideous maw, instantly swallowing Gu Shihan and the flying sword beneath her feet.

In an instant, an incredibly powerful suction force swept over them, causing Gu Shihan and Xing Bai to plummet straight down like kites with broken strings.

Gu Shihan went from panic to calm in the blink of an eye, mobilizing the spiritual power within her body and using all her strength to cast a spell to control her continuously falling body.

Xingbai didn't hesitate either. He quickly formed hand seals with his little paws, and a faint light emanated from his fingertips, forming an incredibly strong binding force that tightly protected him and Gu Shihan.

And so, the two plummeted rapidly through this unknown and perilous landscape, their future uncertain...

"Xingbai, I... I feel so uncomfortable! It feels like something is running wildly through my meridians!" Gu Shihan said through clenched teeth, his voice trembling, large beads of sweat sliding down his pale face.

"Hanhan, don't worry, leave the outside matters to me. Just focus on circulating your cultivation technique and see if you can calm down those chaotic forces. In my opinion, it's very likely the legendary immortal spiritual power!" Xingbai comforted her with concern, her eyes firm and steady.

"Okay!" Hearing Xingbai's words, Gu Shihan endured the pain, ignoring her contorted face and bulging veins, and tried her best to calm herself down before slowly circulating her cultivation technique.

Strangely enough, as the technique was practiced, the power that had been rampaging and raging within his body gradually became docile and was no longer as violent and unruly as before.

Could this cultivation technique really be a celestial-level technique, just as Xing Bai said? Thinking of this, Gu Shihan couldn't help but feel a surge of joy, but at the same time, she dared not slack off in the slightest.

He activated his cultivation technique, mobilized his own spiritual power, and gradually integrated it into the chaotic force.

Time passed second by second. After about ten breaths, the spiritual power within the body and the invading immortal spiritual power intertwined and entangled, eventually reaching a delicate balance, with each harming the other.

Gu Shihan let out a soft sigh of relief, finally feeling a little more at ease. However, he dared not relax for a moment, remaining fully focused on multitasking.

On one hand, he precisely controlled the circulation of the cultivation technique within his body to ensure that there would be no errors; on the other hand, he devoted some of his attention to observing the vast white expanse around him, trying to find some clues or hints.
