After cultivating immortality, she devoted herself to becoming an ancestor

Chapter 156 Fire Elder

However, since the Fire Realm belongs to the Demonic Sect, the Mahayana cultivators there immediately objected: "It's no problem to forcibly send people in during the Night Moon Festival."

"If we force our way into the secret realm during the day, and the realm is destroyed and we all die, how do you plan to compensate us, fellow cultivator?"

"Look, what good would it do for you and me if this formation were destroyed?" This Mahayana cultivator from the Taiyuan Sect pointed to a blood-red round jade the size of a washbasin on the table.

At this moment, the blood jade was already shattered into pieces.

In his view, sending people in to try and save them, and the death of a few exiles, was no big deal.

"The formation has been destroyed, and foundation building alone is insufficient to repair it."

"They'll only be able to retrieve the cauldron if they go down; they can open the entrance later tonight." The demonic cultivator stared at the blood jade, clearly disagreeing.

In his heart, however, he was thinking that the fellow Daoist in front of him was probably worried that if this maintenance mission failed, he would be punished like Zhuang Xingjian ten years ago and sent to the barren lands of the far north to guard the mine.

"Of course, if you are willing to compensate us with a secret realm after forcibly opening the entrance, it is not impossible to open it now."

As soon as the demonic cultivator finished speaking, the entrance to the secret realm behind him shook violently.

As they immediately formed hand seals to stabilize the situation, the Vermilion Bird Cauldron within the secret realm was already upside down on the volcano, taking it away on its own.

When Shen Suiren and his team arrived, the entire volcano had fallen into the cauldron.

Amidst the thunderous roar, many cultivators who were chasing the treasure were excited and wanted to seize it.

However, the cauldron rotates too fast. If a person gets within a hundred feet of it, they will be instantly covered in blood by the airflow and thrown two miles away.

After it flipped over, it crashed into the sulfur pool next to it, instantly causing the spark crack in mid-air to widen, forming a large L-shaped opening with the spatial crack created by the pool water.

With a whoosh, the Vermilion Bird Cauldron jumped inside and disappeared.

Shen Suiren's first reaction was to jump after him: "Dragon King, what did you move on the cauldron?"

"Come back, you can't hold on." The Dragon King used a strand of spiritual energy to pull her back.

The large crack suddenly disappeared from sight, and the entire sulfur pool dried up with a hissing sound.

The group was dumbfounded; where were they going to find another one?

The onlookers rushed forward to pick up the small pieces of fire spirit crystals that had been broken off from the ground.

Before long, people started fighting over how to collect more.

Shen Suiren and the others looked at each other, showing no interest in finding treasure. The Vermilion Bird Cauldron passed them by without them even activating the magic array on it.

The Dragon King laughed and said, "Don't worry, I have activated its positioning array. It will return to the Taiyuan Realm on its own through the spatial rift."

Cheng Zhishun snapped out of his daze, "You should have said so earlier, so we could have taken it with us."

"And then melted by the volcano it brought?" The Dragon King glanced at him, then looked at the sighing Shen Suiren, "Your mission is complete."

The latter said, "I don't know whether it's completed or not, but I will definitely be hunted down by the people of the spirit world."

"Are they almost here?" Juexing immediately touched his face, deciding to use the shape-changing patch to change his appearance again.

Niao Niao pointed to his bald head.

It means it's too conspicuous.

Meanwhile, the Dragon King was scanning the direction of the entrance to the secret realm. Seeing that the portal had been opened, he reminded them, "The people at the entrance will be coming down soon. Do you want to face them head-on or hide?"

There was no benefit in fighting, so everyone unanimously chose to hide.

Shen Suiren and Uncle Luo unfolded the map of the secret realm, intending to choose a place to set up an invisibility array.

Unexpectedly, the Dragon King waved his hand, and the entire group was instantly moved into a space filled with pale purple mist.

Looking around, you can see mountain orchards and even a secluded courtyard not far from the stream.

"The Dragon Ball space," Cheng Zhishun guessed immediately.

"So many high-grade spiritual fruits, I wonder if the Dragon King will let us pick them." Yao Niaoniao and Qiu Lu were the first to run into the orchard.

The Dragon King's voice came: "Eat as many low-grade spiritual fruits as you like, but for the high-grade ones, each person is only allowed to take one of each type."

The teammates scattered curiously, each searching for treasure.

But Yun Chuan didn't move, which disappointed him the most. "There's no sign of any strange fire or divine weapon."

Equally disappointed, Daoist Gu smiled wryly: "Not really, Daoist Nie found a sword."

Yun Chuan said half-jokingly, "At the beginning of the year, is it only those around her who will prosper?"

"What are you whispering about? Juexing and Suichu saw two large boxes of high-level magic treasures in the courtyard. Aren't you going to pick one out?" Wu Wan waved to them from the courtyard.

Upon hearing this, the two flew into the courtyard in a flash, and the others, having received the telepathic message, gathered from various parts of the mountains and forests.

In the center of the courtyard, there were two large, open Qiankun boxes.

Although most of them are unfinished products, the swords, spears, axes and the like are dazzling and of high quality. With further refinement, they can become top-grade magic weapons or even spiritual treasures.

Then, noticing some fragments of fire spirit crystals beside the box, everyone exclaimed in unison, "From the volcano?"

Shen Suiren nodded, then raised his voice and asked, "Dragon King, may I choose?"

"Take them all away, don't bother me. The Taiyuan Sect has sent fifty disciples, and I'm going to go with them to capture you." The Dragon King's voice echoed around.

After exchanging bewildered glances, everyone burst into laughter, secretly hoping that the Dragon King could keep up the charade.

As expected, the Dragon King, along with half of the investigators, left the secret realm a few days later to be questioned by the gloomy Mahayana cultivators at the entrance.

Unexpectedly, this high-level Daoist cultivator was extremely dissatisfied with the news of the Vermilion Bird Cauldron's disappearance and reached out to search the soul.

The Dragon King could no longer hide, and his soul left the female cultivator, letting out a dragon's roar as he soared into the clouds.

"You're behind this!" The two Mahayana cultivators from the demonic path simultaneously launched a pursuit.

Unexpectedly, no dragon could be seen within the clouds. By the time their divine senses discovered its trace, the Dragon King's soul had already entered the seabed a hundred miles away, instantly merging with its pre-hidden clone and ascending to the Mahayana cultivation level using a secret technique.

A purple thunder dragon instantly stirred up thousands of waves, but it was no danger to those in the Mahayana stage. They quickly rushed into the water and began to fight.

Boom boom boom

Shen Suiren and the others could not see the battle outside, but they felt suffocating pressure in the space. They tried to circulate their spiritual power to resist, but instead they couldn't bear it and vomited blood.

This pain lasted for three hours before the Dragon King escaped and fled into the deep sea.

The two Mahayana cultivators wanted to give chase, but they had already entered the Dragon Clan's forbidden area. Suddenly, a water curtain rose up, and a roaring dragon's cry sent the two flying hundreds of miles away.

"Find the Dragon Clan Chief." When they contacted the Dragon Clan, the Dragon King had already left this sea area and appeared in the human market at the border of the Dao and Demon realms.

Shen Suiren and the others also left the Dragon Ball space, changed their appearances again, and observed the cultivators of the spirit world from a private room in the restaurant.

Juexing couldn't take his eyes off the Dragon King. "Dragon King, your clone can also transform into human form. That's amazing."

Is creating an avatar also a form of Mahayana cultivation? If I cultivate to the Void Refinement stage in the future, will I be able to create an avatar of myself?

Shen Suiren rubbed his forehead, sometimes feeling that Xing was still as lively as a child.

The Dragon King didn't care. "It's possible, but after several incidents of clones rebelling and destroying the main soul, no one in the cultivation world today severs their divine soul to create clones."

Shen Suiren thought to himself that it was probably because the materials for creating clones were too scarce.

"When can we go to the Great Wilderness?" This was her biggest concern.

"I can't show up right away; I need to rest for a while."

This is the map and the location of the interdimensional teleportation array. Keep a low profile; no one cares about Foundation Establishment cultivators.

"Unless your life is in danger, do not disturb me on the road." The Dragon King handed over a jade slip, which immediately transformed into a stream of light and flew into Cheng Zhishun's sea of ​​consciousness.

He froze instantly, looking inward at the dragon pearl in his sea of ​​consciousness. "Men and women are different." "Shut up." The Dragon King had just finished a fight using a secret technique and was already falling into a deep sleep.

Everyone was quite surprised; why didn't they look for Sui Chu?

Shen Suiren ignored their probing gazes and instead called the waiter to settle the bill, so he could leave the market as soon as possible.

To their surprise, as soon as they entered the teleportation hall, several cultivators came down from the teleportation array.

The oppressive aura was so strong that everyone in the entire hall fell to their knees.

"Sparrow King! They are at the Mahayana stage!" The Little Fox King exclaimed in surprise upon seeing the Sparrow King's true form in Shen Suiren's sea of ​​consciousness.

The latter gritted his teeth and maintained the tense atmosphere with everyone in the hall.

It wasn't until long after they left that anyone dared to get up.

Shen Suiren's heart was pounding. Fortunately, the high-level cultivators didn't care about the low-level cultivators in the area, so she and her teammates immediately bought tickets and teleported to the location of the Daoist sect.

They dared not delay for a moment, making several transfers, and after a day and a night, they arrived at the so-called Seven Realms Gate Market.

"My soul can't take it anymore. At the beginning of the year, we should rest for at least a day or two." Luo Ning, who never complained, swallowed three or four Harmony Pills before his headache subsided.

Yun Chuan said, "It would be best to purchase some pills that we don't have, such as limb regeneration pills."

But the Dragon King suddenly transmitted his voice: "Hurry up, the Northern Mystic Realm will open the day after tomorrow."

Everyone: "..."

"The transfer formation requires queuing. Some of us will rest, while the rest will go find elixirs. Be sure not to flaunt your wealth."

Shen Suiren couldn't withstand the continuous teleportation either, saying, "We should be glad that we were able to get out in time."

Otherwise, they might remain in the spirit world forever.

If you have no attachments, there's nothing wrong with staying in another realm to cultivate. It's just that you lose the sect's resources, and you have to rely on your own hard work for everything.

However, half of the team members were unwilling to wander outside; they were used to being disciples of a sect, and being a rogue cultivator was too difficult.

Reaching the level of Mahayana integration is still a long way off.

And so, reality has taught them to love the Taiyuan Realm even more.

After browsing the shops, I found that the pills in the Spirit Realm were more than half the price of those in the Taiyuan Realm. The Regeneration Pill was also a rare item, costing hundreds of thousands of low-grade spirit stones per pill, and you had to pre-order it.

For calming pills below the Core Formation stage, even the top-grade pills in the Taiyuan Realm cost only two thousand spirit stones each, while their mid-grade pills are priced at five thousand spirit stones, which is simply frighteningly expensive.

Upon opening it and smelling it, I felt that the fragrance of the pill was far inferior to that of the Divine Union Pill refined by the Immortal Travel Sect.

Luo Ning said, "I just ate four Divine Harmony Pills, which is 20,000 spirit stones per bite."

They didn't buy a single pill. During their rest, they swallowed two Divine Harmony Pills, which only cost them four thousand spirit stones.

But when everyone finally made it to Beixuan Market in the Great Wilderness, they were told that the Beixuan Secret Realm would not be open this year.

This is a market town where humans and demons live together. There are many Nascent Soul and Void Refinement cultivators coming and going, as well as many eighth-order or seventh-and-a-half-order demons discussing in twos and threes.

But the most discussed topic was among the Core Formation cultivators of the human race: "The secret realm will be opened in the first half of the year."

In the second half of the year, we paid a lot of pills as an entry fee, but then suddenly they wouldn't let us in.

"What does the Demon Court mean by making us work for nothing?"

"Shh, I heard it was the Sparrow King who suddenly ordered a halt."

"It's currently suspended, but there's a possibility it will reopen. Let's wait and see; it might open next year."

"So, are we just going to waste a whole year in the market?"

"..."

Shen Suiren and the others sat in the teahouse lobby, listening to the occasional conversations among the guests, and they were all somewhat worried.

Niao Niao transmitted her voice: "So, we can't borrow the road?"

"No, we have to go to the entrance right now." Anyway, it's only a little over a hundred miles away. Yun Chuan got up to walk out, but his teammate kicked him under the table, telling him to see what Sui Chu had to say.

Shen Suiren agreed with his suggestion and was about to nod when he saw a person through the window—no, a demon cultivator.

She quickly looked away: "Elder Huo of the Demon Court and Ao Qi."

"Fire Qilin?" Wu Wan, a disciple of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect at the next table, subconsciously looked up. Cheng Zhishun put his hand on Wu Wan's shoulder and whispered to him like a good brother: "Don't move, don't look."

However, the suspicious Ao Qi felt that someone had glanced at him earlier, so he immediately scanned the table with his divine sense. He did not recognize the Foundation Establishment cultivators at that table.

But just as he withdrew his divine sense, he saw the jade pendant hanging on Luo Ning's table next to him and thought to himself, "Cen Che's icy aura."

Having been overpowered and beaten by Cen Che several times at sea, he was all too familiar with this man's aura.

"Ao Qi, where are you going again?" When the fire qilin caught up, Ao Qi was already standing opposite Luo Ning and Shen Suiren.

With a ninth-tier demon king in front of them, the Foundation Establishment and Qi Refining cultivators on this floor immediately stopped talking and looked over from behind the screen.

The Nascent Soul cultivators, Deity Transformation cultivators, or those at the ninth or tenth level upstairs would also glance over to see something rare.

Five female cultivators at the table stood up and bowed, "Greetings, Senior?"

A flash of light appeared in Ao Qi's hand as he unceremoniously snatched Luo Ning's protective jade pendant, forcing the latter to suppress the urge to look up.

Upon hearing the little fox king's telepathic plea for help, the fire qilin was startled and immediately asked, "Ao Qi, is this the jade pendant you lost?"

He transmitted his thoughts through his divine sense: "Think about how difficult it is for you to move forward in the Dragon Clan of the Spirit Realm, and then think about the news of the people in the Taiyuan Realm who have become gods. In the future, they may not be unable to achieve the Great Ascension."

Leave a way out for others, so you can meet again in the future.

Ao Qi slowly flipped through the jade tablet containing a wisp of ice-type sword energy. The team members at the opposite and next tables were all extremely nervous, but they couldn't show it on their faces.

Just as Shen Suiren secretly gestured to Cheng Zhishun to awaken the Dragon King, Ao Qi nodded: "It's mine."

I won't ask where you bought it; I'll redeem it today.

As he spoke, he tossed Luo Ning a bag of spirit stones and turned to leave.

As the fire unicorn chased after him, it also transmitted its voice to the little fox king, "Xiangyun Inn, Courtyard No. 4, Jia, Wo Xiang, Si Yu."

No fun. I thought the Demon King was going to kidnap a female cultivator. All eyes in the building immediately turned away.

Niao Niao let out a long sigh and sat down, clinging to Shen Suiren.

Luo Ning apologized: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hung it up."

Ever since they changed their clothes and appearance again, the clothes they wore and the magical artifacts they carried were all stolen back from the Li Huo Realm.

Items bearing the sect's mark are all sealed in an invisible ring.

The belongings of those Taiyuan Sect disciples were all left in the Dragon King's space; they didn't dare take them with them.

There are no markings on Luo Ning's jade pendant; it was only made by his master.

What could Shen Suiren say? "It was something no one expected." He just happened to meet the Flood Dragon King Ao Qijian, who was so perceptive that he could identify people by their jade.

She thought to herself that the other party had taken the jade pendant without asking any questions in public, which meant they were letting them off the hook.

They were also kept for future use to leverage favors, since their sudden appearance in the Great Wilderness Realm was even more unusual than the collective teleportation of Nascent Soul cultivators to the Sword Sect ten years ago.

Shen Suiren said, "Let's rent an inn and get some rest to calm our nerves."

Of course, it was impossible to stay at Xiangyun Inn; instead, they would rent a place on another street, and it was also impossible for them to go to Elder Woxiang's place entirely.

When Shen Suiren, Yun Chuan, and Cheng Zhishun knocked on the Xiangyun Jiazi No. 4 door, Ao Qi opened the door.

The three of them activated the Hundred-Mile Flash Escape Talisman in unison.
