Chapter 356 – Spirit Formation: Thousand Years Empyrean Taoist Fruit
Although the All Saints Spirit Serpent Clan Ancestor and other Demon Lords had taken away quite a few of their first lineage bloodlines, the number of Demon Clans and Demon Beasts in the All Saints Demon Realm was still numerous, counting in the tens of millions, if not hundreds of millions.
However, all of these things were no longer the turn of the Golden Spirit Demon Lord, Su Yu and the others to dispose of.
As for Zhang Ting, the moment the Earth Immortal Mansion initially took control of the Ten Thousand Sacred Spirit Serpent Clan Lands, only then did he bring the two of them, Zhang Tianyi, to retrieve their Sixth Order Upper Grade Battleships, and descend into the Ten Thousand Sacred Spirit Serpent Clan Lands.
Looking at the Ten Thousand Sacred Spirit Snake Clan’s land in front of him, Zhang Ting as well as Zhang Tian Yi both revealed a hint of joy in their eyes.
Zhang Tian Yi even transmitted his voice, “Senior brother, quickly find out where the eye of that Spirit Formation is?”
Zhang Ting, however, looked down at the people of the Earth Immortal Mansion in the clan land, including Su Yu, and then said in a cold voice, “You and the others exit, and without my command, you are not allowed to take half a step into this place.”
Su Yu, the Golden Spirit Demon Lord, and the others did not argue or theorize with them, and directly led the people to leave this place.
However, after moving away from the Ten Thousand Sacred Spirit Serpent Clan Land, the Heavenly Flame Daolord transmitted his voice to the crowd with a sullen face and said, “The people of this Xuan Huang Ancient Land are also too overbearing, to the extent that they have commandeered the resources of the Ten Thousand Sacred Spirit Serpent Clan Land.”
Su Yu waved his hand, his face calm and bland as he said, “A small amount of resources is just a small amount of resources, it’s naturally good to have them, but it’s just the icing on the cake, allowing us to thicken our base by one point.”
“It’s no big deal if we don’t have it, the rest of the resources in this Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm are enough for our Earth Immortal Mansion to digest for a hundred years.”
“If they want it then just give it to them, the goal of my Earth Immortal Mansion coming here has never been that little bit of resources from that Ten Thousand Sacred Spirit Snake Race.”
These words were right.
If they really wanted resources, which of the powers such as the Great Yan Immortal Dynasty was not the Earth Immortal Mansion’s backup resource pool?
Under Su Yu’s relief, the Heavenly Flame Daolord and the others’ minds were much more comfortable, and when they thought about the gains they had made from taking down the Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm this time around, there was more or less a small amount of joy and smiles on their faces.
Although there weren’t many resources here that they themselves could use, harvesting so many resources also meant that the descendants, disciples, grandchildren, and so on that they were able to cultivate wouldn’t have to worry about the problem of not having enough resources.
A few moments later.
The Heavenly Flame Daolord suddenly remembered being saved by Su Yu earlier, as well as this battle where he had soundly taken down the Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm as if it was destroying the world.
The Heavenly Flame Daolord lamented in his heart and said, “This battle, it feels really comfortable and soothing.”
Unprecedented comfort.
Where was the sense of nervousness, apprehension, as well as uneasiness that one used to feel when facing a great battle?
It was simply not too smooth.
Moreover, now that they had joined the Earth Immortal Mansion, they didn’t have to worry about the relationship between the Immortal Sect and the Earth Immortal Mansion and couldn’t sleep or cultivate in peace.
Now their first battle after joining the Earth Immortal Mansion went so smoothly as well as gaining unimaginable benefits and resources.
When the Heavenly Flame Daolord thought back on the entire process, there was only one feeling in his heart-
Silky smooth!
His own decision to join the Earthly Immortal Mansion in the first place was really right!
The other Daolords felt the same way in their hearts.
However, Su Yu did not pay attention to these, but instead, his eyes condensed a golden divine aura, and the Golden Cicada Dharma Avatar was executed as he quietly looked towards the direction of the Ten Thousand Sacred Spirit Serpent Clan.
After the people from the Earth Immortal Mansion had left, the three Dao Masters of the Cang Clan who followed Zhang Ting’s side had used formation flags to lay down a large formation on the ground of this Ten Thousand Sacred Spirit Serpent Clan, shielding all movements in the land of the clan.
Afterwards, Zhang Ting pulled out a special magic weapon that looked somewhat like a Formation Breaking Mortar and Pestle.
After filling it with mana, a special power fluctuation filled the four directions of heaven and earth.
In front of him, the clan land of the Ten Thousand Sacred Spirit Snake Clan was a huge spiritual mountain, and there was a spiritual vein of almost the sixth order hidden in the depths of the earth, and there were countless snake caves in the mountain, and Zhang Ting used the power of the magic weapon to spy on the spiritual mountain range in front of him.
Zhang Tian Yi and the three Dao Masters of the Cang Clan followed behind Zhang Ting.
Eventually, in a hidden lair hidden thousands of feet below the ground, Zhang Ting, Zhang Tian Yi, and the three Dao Masters of the Cang Clan broke through a formation and entered a small cave.
Only to see a rich cloud-like spiritual qi coming out in front of them, this was a small cave heaven that was about one mile in circumference.
Under the dense clouds of heaven and earth spiritual qi, one spiritual medicine and spiritual plant after another appeared in front of Zhang Ting and the others’ vision.
When Zhang Tian Yi saw these spirit medicines, his eyes couldn’t help but sparkle for a few moments as he said in surprise, “Senior brother, they are all fifth and sixth rank spirit medicines and spirit plants!”
Zhang Ting was similarly overjoyed.
Although both of them were Ancient Land Ancient Court Celestial Pride, it didn’t mean that they didn’t need outside resources to cultivate.
Even more so, their gap for resources was even greater than that of the Immortal Cultivators outside.
This area in front of them, the fifth and sixth rank spirit medicines and spirit plants were only enough for him as well as his senior sister and the two of them to cultivate at the Fractal Spirit Realm cultivation level.
This was a big harvest!
However, Zhang Ting did not forget the main purpose of coming in this time, and after some searching, he finally found a stone tablet that towered about nine feet by nine feet by nine inches in the center of the cave sky.
This monument did not seem to have any peculiarities, at best, the spiritual qi of the earth and sky around the monument was much denser than the rest of the place.
However, when Zhang Ting saw this stone monument, he was able to determine.
This thing was one of the Spirit Formation Eyes that his master was looking for!
Zhang Ting looked at the stone tablet in front of him that looked like an ordinary rock, with a strange look in his eyes, and lowered his voice, “Rumor has it that during the Ancient Era, it was not true that the heavens and earth out there did not have high-grade spirit veins, and even top cultivation blessings that were close to immortal veins were present.”
“But after experiencing an unknown battle in the Ancient Era, these top spirit veins and blessed lands in the outside world either suffered destruction or disappeared from the world.”
“Those top cultivation lands, were they really – all destroyed?”
“Other than that, if the legendary Immortal Formation is true, then if this Immortal Formation wants to be inspired, it will always need spirit veins to support it, right?”
Beside him, Zhang Tianyi’s heart stirred slightly as he said, “What does senior brother mean?”
Zhang Ting glanced at the three Dao Masters of the Cang Clan behind him and smiled gently, although the Cang Clan did not have any Dao Masters in existence, they could only rely on being under the Ancient Court and working for it.
However, the Cang Family’s strength was not considered weak, if they could be brought together, then even if he became a Daolord in the future, the Cang Family would be able to become his right hand man and work for him.
Zhang Ting whispered, “Such a top-notch cultivation ground cavern that has been closed for endless years, if it were to be found and opened, how many unimaginable heavenly treasures or resources would be inside?”
Zhang Tian Yi as well as the three Dao Masters of the Cang Clan’s faces changed, and their breathing quickened a few points.
They then looked at the stone monument in front of them.
This stone monument was said to be a stone monument of a so-called Spirit Formation, and although Zhang Ting and the few others did not know much information about it, they projected it from all the signs as well as the intelligence they had learned.
This Demon Realm Core Spirit Formation Stone Monument of the Ten Thousand Sacred Spirit Serpent Clan should have been from the ancient times in the past.
A spirit formation node was located by those great powers in order to build the Immortal Formation and provide power to the Immortal Formation.
These spirit formations, then, sealed many of the top cultivation places in the Immortal Cultivation World in the past.
But although they had found this stone tablet node, trying to find where the true spirit formation was located was obviously not something that their group of people who didn’t even know much about formations could do.
After all, this was only one of the nodes, and it had to be combined with the other spirit formation steles to determine where the real spirit formation was.
This was something that only their Master could do.
A few moments later.
Zhang Ting said, “Let’s collect the resources here first, and then go back to report to the Master.” Zhang Tianyi as well as the three Dao Masters of the Cang Clan nodded, and then began to harvest the spirit medicines and plants in this small cave heaven.
Not long afterward, Zhang Tianyi suddenly let out a startled cry, “Senior brother, come quickly!”
The moment Zhang Ting quickly came to her side, he saw a spiritual plant about one zhang tall in front of him, its body as if it was glazed and crystalline, its trunk, branches and leaves were filled with an ethereal dense immortal light, and a divine ethereal aura permeated the surroundings.
A fist-sized fruit filled with bright multicolored light hangs on a branch.
Just the breath that permeates the fruit makes the surrounding space seem to be flooded with subtle ripples.
It was as if it was illusory, blending into the void.
And around the spirit plant, there was a small formation protection.
Seeing this spirit plant as well as this spirit fruit, Zhang Ting looked startled and said in surprise, “Empty Spirit Dao Fruit! And looking at this aura, I’m afraid it must be more than a thousand years old!”
The two of them hurriedly broke open the formation on the side of this Empyrean Dao Fruit, took down the Empyrean Dao Fruit with a special method, and carefully put it away.
In the records of the ancient land, the Empty Spirit Dao Fruit had the extraordinary effect of being able to metamorphose the physical body as well as the spiritual roots.
Refined into a precious dan, the value of a single one would be no less than a top-grade treasure.
Even if they didn’t use it themselves, this thing would allow the two of them to make a fortune in resources.
Although the three Cang Clan Dao Masters on the side looked equally moved, they didn’t intervene to grab it, and didn’t even ask for a share.
If they really wanted to do that, the Cang Clan might no longer have a foothold in the Xuan Huang Ancient Land.
They naturally knew what was more important.
After collecting all the good resources left here by the Ten Thousand Sacred Spirit Serpent Clan, Zhang Ting, Zhang Tianyi, and the three Dao Masters of the Cang Clan took back the outer array formation.
Looking outside, the Earth Immortal Mansion’s suppression and purging of the remaining demonic races and demonic beasts in the Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm was still continuing.
After thinking about it, Zhang Ting said to the three Cang Clan Daolords, “The three seniors will stay here and be responsible for suppressing the Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm, lest the Demon Race make a comeback and take back the Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm.”
“Senior Sister and I will go back to Canggu Immortal City and report what happened here to Senior.”
That Cang Clan’s Dao Master Cang Hai, who was at the eighth level of the Cavern Void Realm, frowned gently and said, “We’ll all stay here, the safety of those two little friends”
Zhang Ting gently waved his hand and said with an indifferent expression, “There’s nothing in the way, with Master Teacher’s Sixth Order Upper Grade Battleship in hand, who can do anything to us in this outside world?”
Seeing this, Canghai could only remind, “Then the two of you be careful.”
After sending Zhang Ting and Zhang Tian Yi away, Cang Hai, Cang Yu, and Cang Tu returned to the Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm, and in addition to waiting for the Earth Immortal Mansion to take complete control of the Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm, they also had to rearm the Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm.
This spirit formation node, before finding out that ancient spirit formation control there, is never let the demon race to take back.
However, Cang Hai, Cang Yu, and Cang Tu did not realize that the figure of a junior in the Earth Immortal Mansion had disappeared.
In the endless void.
The two of them, Zhang Ting and Zhang Tian Yi, were maneuvering their sixth-ranked upper-grade warships, intending to return to the Da Qian Immortal Cultivation Realm first, and then go back with the help of the Da Qian Immortal Cultivation Realm’s teleportation arrays.
However, as they walked, suddenly the void in front of them suddenly changed drastically.
It was as if it had transformed into a giant black hole that swallowed the entire sixth-order upper-grade warship.
The two people in the battleship, Zhang Ting and Zhang Tianyi, had a shocked change of color and were confused, “This is-what’s going on!?”
They didn’t notice anything, and by the time they did, they had already maneuvered the battleship into this ‘giant mouth’ on their own.
The next moment.
A ferocious might that made their scalps numb erupted, and Zhang Ting’s face changed drastically, pale and bloodless, “An absolute-grade magic treasure!?” This was the inner world of an absolute-grade magic treasure!
“Boom!”
With a single strike, even the defense barrier of the sixth rank top grade warship rippled monstrously.
The top-grade spirit stones in the power core were drastically consumed.
Originally, in the previous battle at the Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm, less than half of the spirit stone reserve bestowed by their master had been consumed because of the quick battle.
Relying on that half of the spirit stone reserve, even if they went through another battle against a peak Dao Master of the Cavern Void realm, the two of them would be able to remain unafraid.
They could retreat at any time.
However, at this moment, they had suddenly fallen into the inner heaven and earth of a superb magic treasure, which was equivalent to throwing themselves into a trap.
Even if the sixth-ranked top-grade warship was no longer strong, how could it break through the barrier of an absolute-grade magic treasure to break through to the heavens?
“It’s over!”
Zhang Ting and Zhang Tian Yi were both stunned and dumbfounded, completely at a loss as to how to deal with such a desperate situation.
“Boom!”
Two more strikes from the Outer Jedi Magic Treasure, that ferocious might broke through the defense of the Sixth Order Upper Grade Battleship in no time, and the terrifying might of power descended, causing Zhang Ting and Zhang Tian Yi to violently spit out blood across the ground, smashing into the battleship’s barriers before crashing to the ground, and instantly fainting to death.
By the time the two came to their senses, they had already appeared on a small hill in the Desolate Domain.
The magical treasures and artifacts on their bodies, along with the sixth-order upper-grade battleship, were nowhere to be found.
Zhang Ting violently struggled up from the ground and looked at his still intact body with excitement, “He didn’t die! Hahaha, one is still alive!”
However, in a flash, when he realized that all of his things, including the Sixth Order Upper Grade Battleship that his Master had temporarily given to his siblings for protection, were nowhere to be found, Zhang Ting’s face changed again.
Inner feelings of horror, shock and anger, confusion, as well as shame and disgrace surfaced in his heart.
“Ahhhhhh!”
“Who, who on earth moved!”
Zhang Ting roared in his heart.
He had lost his master’s sixth-ranked top-grade battleship, and it was over!
However, he didn’t dare to let out any harsh words, and after coming to his senses, he immediately fled back towards the direction of the Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm in a hurry with Zhang Tian Yi.
While fleeing for his life, he recalled the entire process of this encounter in his mind.
Zhang Ting’s heart was stifled, and the more he thought about it, the angrier he became, unable to swallow this breath.
“Who in the world did this to themselves!?”
“And what was he doing it for if he didn’t kill himself and his senior sister?”
The moment he and Zhang Tian Yi both escaped back to the Ten Thousand Sacred Demon Realm, everyone was shaken, including Su Yu in the crowd.
Su Yu’s face was filled with shock and a little bit of a panicked look, mixing in with the crowd and being inconspicuous.
Cang Hai, Cang Yu, and Cang Tu were the main force to retrieve Zhang Ting and Zhang Tian Yi.
Cang Hai inquired with a mixture of shock and anger, “Who did this! Was it the demon race?” (End of chapter)
