BXBX NOVEL Chapter 127
Chapter 127
A slender crack suddenly appeared in the seeming space ahead after a continuous day and night of trembling, coupled with this strike. As the crack opened, an incredibly ancient aura rushed forth. This place had been sealed for countless years, and only recently did they have the opportunity to open it.
“Let’s all attack together!” The Nascent Soul peak-stage cultivator shouted, and many Nascent Soul cultivators began to act. Li Su also concealed his aura. Before coming here, he had placed several restrictions on his body to prevent anyone from detecting anything unusual when he acted. Without these restrictions, it would be challenging to hide among so many Nascent Soul cultivators even if he suppressed his cultivation level. Twenty-one Nascent Soul cultivators went all out this time.
None of them used magical treasures or spells. Instead, they used their spiritual power to widen the crack forcefully. In the sky, there was a brilliant display of light. Below, many cultivators from the northern region gathered and watched in awe. Even though the Nascent Soul cultivators didn’t use magical treasures or spells, the power they unleashed was formidable, sending ripples of energy far and wide.
“Quick, look, Senior Li is over there!” Even at this moment, some female cultivators were still searching for Li Su.
“Boom!”
As the Nascent Soul cultivators all joined forces, the crack finally widened. Through the fissure, one could see that sunlight was just beginning to shine inside. Faint outlines of towering mountains within were visible, filled with abundant spiritual energy, resembling a celestial realm. An incredibly rich spiritual aura poured out from inside. “There’s indeed a convergence of spiritual veins here. This is wonderful! Haha!” One of the Nascent Soul cultivators laughed heartily.
Outside the ruins of the Immortal Sect, as the crack opened, the Sect Master of the Falling Cloud Sect and other formation masters from the sect began their actions. They continuously placed formation flags to keep the passage open. After around ten minutes, they successfully established a substantial passage.
“I’ll venture inside and explore first,” stated the Nascent Soul peak cultivator from the Azure Mist Sect, as he dashed towards the immortal sect ruins.
“Wait a moment, Senior Jin, there’s something amiss in there,” Li Su’s voice suddenly said. The Nascent Soul cultivator named Jin stopped and inquired, “Friend Li, what have you discovered?”
Li Su flew to the entrance of the ruins, swiftly set up several formation flags, and tossed an object inside. The scene inside transformed dramatically in the next moment. “Why is there so much water?” exclaimed one of the Nascent Soul cultivators. Indeed, water was abundant, and on the other side, they could see numerous sea beasts surrounding the entrance. These sea beasts were also demonic creatures, but they were the kind that dwelled in the seas. However, due to Li Su’s formation flags being disrupted, the scene reverted to its previous state.
“Sea beasts? How could there be sea beasts?” Some of the Nascent Soul cultivators remained puzzled. The Northern Region cultivators who had come here and the cultivators from the Eight Great Immortal Sects were equally baffled.
“I understand now. There was a time when the Sea Clan was immensely powerful and waged a colossal war. Although there are no records of that war anymore, it is said that the waters of the Northern Sea surged to tens of thousands of feet high, flooding the entire Northern Region,” explained the Nascent Soul cultivator Jin.
As a Nascent Soul peak cultivator, he was the most powerful Nascent Soul cultivator present and had lived the longest. He was likely over four thousand years old, and Li Su doubted if he still had a chance to break through to the Divine Transformation stage.
“Senior Jin, does that mean this immortal sect ruin is a relic from that time?” asked one of the Nascent Soul cultivators, finally connecting the dots.
“It should be. Otherwise, why would this immortal sect have perished? From what we can see, they likely sealed off the entire sect and trapped many sea beasts inside after they couldn’t withstand the onslaught. This sect was indeed situated above a spiritual vein. Otherwise, the descendants of these sea beasts wouldn’t have survived for so long,” Senior Jin explained.
“Senior Jin, what should we do?” asked the Sect Master of the Wind and Thunder Sect.
“Of course, we should enter. Water Moon Sect Master, you excel in water-based techniques. You will lead the charge in this battle. What do you say?” Senior Jin looked at Liu Xinshui.
“Of course, I can do that,” Liu Xinshui replied hesitantly.
“Water Moon disciples, follow my orders, form a formation!” Liu Xinshui commanded. The disciples from the Water Moon Sect took to the sky and created a mysterious formation. Liu Xinshui and Liu Xinyue, identical twin sisters dressed in white and green, descended. Their appearance drew the attention of all the cultivators present.
The Moon Water Sect was considerably stronger than the Flying Immortal Sect, even after the merger of the three sects. The Moon Water Sect had 25 Foundation Establishment cultivators and several hundred Qi Condensation cultivators.
With their Nascent Soul cultivator bodies, these twin sisters stood at the forefront, captivating the onlookers. All the disciples from the Moon Water Sect began to form seals, and brilliant lights flowed within the formation they created, casting a beautiful halo around its perimeter.
“Go!” Liu Xinyue unleashed a spell into the passage with the combined power of all the Moon Water Sect disciples. The passage was instantly breached, and the concealment spells inside were shattered. The seawater inside evaporated, and the sea beasts disappeared without a trace.
“Charge in!” The Nascent Soul cultivator Jin, despite nearing the end of his lifespan, still possessed formidable power as a Nascent Soul peak cultivator. He brandished his magical treasure and led the way into the passage, followed by the other Nascent Soul cultivators.
“Be careful. The restrictions here are extremely powerful. These creatures are well-acquainted with them. Let’s not rush in recklessly,” he cautioned.
“The strength of the restrictions here suggests that this immortal sect was once very powerful. We could uncover ancient secrets or techniques here.
“Let’s proceed cautiously. The sea beasts are not the primary concern. It’s the stubborn restrictions.”
“Be cautious. There are fourth-tier sea beasts. We should still be careful.”
Approximately an hour later, numerous cultivators had entered the immortal sect ruins.
In addition to the cultivators from the Eight Great Immortal Sects, numerous independent cultivators from the Northern Region had also ventured into the ruins. It was evident that the Northern Region cultivators had won the initial struggle to enter the immortal sect ruins. The seawater surrounding the outer area had already been drained, but numerous ancient restrictions had isolated the entire region within this specific section of the ruins. The seawater here had also been separated, while vast expanses of dark seawater remained in other areas. This seawater effectively blocked divine senses, and the restrictions made it almost impossible to explore fully using divine senses.
Currently, everyone had gathered beneath the towering mountains they had seen earlier. These mountains were not limited to just one or two. There were many of them, stretching continuously and now submerged in seawater. In some areas within these mountains, the seawater had not intruded due to the presence of restrictions.
