Chapter 138: Cultivation Exposed
Chapter 134 – Cultivation Exposed
“However, if I want to lay my hands on the Heavenly Ruler True Lord, I can only find a way to do it in the Ancient Moon World.”
“Or, when True Lord Yellow Sand and True Lord Five Poisons, are both absent, disguise myself in some other identity, and then make my move on True Lord Sky Ruler.”
Chen Fan’s gaze flickered.
The sooner he took down the Heavenly Ruler True Lord, the sooner he would be able to subdue him.
After he had subdued the Heavenly Ruler True Lord, it would be much simpler to take the Heavenly Ruler True Lord and move against the Five Poison True Lord.
Then when he had subdued the two YuanYing True Monarchs, he could proceed to subdue the most powerful Yellow Sand True Monarch.
“Hm?”
Suddenly, just as Chen Fan was pondering when to make a move against the Heavenly Ruler True Lord, his mind moved and he opened the regional chat channel.
He then saw that the Yellow Sand True Lord had sent a message summoning him to go over with all the other Jindan Stage Immortal Cultivators.
“Is something wrong?”
“Greetings, True Lord!”
The so-called Ancient Moon Tower should actually be called the Ancient Moon Trial Tower.
After entering the Ancient Moon World, they were all randomly teleported, and given the enormity of the Ancient Moon World, what could True Lord Huang Sha do if he brought them in with him?
“Not long ago, while exploring the Ancient Moon World, I discovered an Ancient Moon Tower and gained a permission after entering it.”
This was a trial tower built by the Ancient Moon True Immortal.
Of course this did not include Zhang Shouquan.
“All of you, follow me into the Ancient Moon World.”
As he was rushing to the Yellow Sand True Lord’s residence, Chen Fan cast the Nine Specters Sky Covering Technique in his mind, and with a cloud of Yin Qi, he shrouded the space of his dantian.
Ever since he had gained his Jindan Stage status, this was the first time that True Lord Huang Sha had summoned all the Jindan Stage Immortal Cultivators.
Once he waited for Chen Fan to advance to the Jindan Stage, I was afraid that even the average middle Jindan Immortal Cultivator would not be his opponent.
Thinking about it, Chen Fan returned a message stating that he would arrive immediately.
It was nothing to enter the Ancient Moon World together.
It was rumored that by entering the Ancient Moon Tower, one would be able to undergo the trials of the True Immortal of the Ancient Moon.
All the people needed to do was to connect their mana, and they could appear in the same spot after entering the Ancient Moon World.
Everyone knew that Chen Fan had a vast future ahead of him.
“Fellow Daoist Chen.”
It was just that all this time, the crowd had not found a single trace of an Ancient Moon Pagoda.
Chen Fan also bowed back one by one.
After everyone had arrived, True Lord Huang Sha spoke, “Next I will leave a Jindan stage puppet to sit here.”
“Ancient Moon Tower?”
Putting on his own aura, he concealed it.
After discovering the Ancient Moon World, almost everyone, was fantasizing about finding the Ancient Moon Tower and passing its trial.
The Yellow Sand True Lord spoke faintly.
Chen Fan frowned slightly.
After Chen Fan arrived, he stood in a spot with the other Jindan Stage Immortal Cultivators after he finished saluting with the Yellow Sand True Lord.
“Fellow Daoist Chen.”
In this way, Immortal cultivators who did not cultivate special aptitudes would not be able to tell his realm.
Upon hearing this, everyone’s eyes lit up.
“All of you.”
At this moment, the nine Jindan Stage Immortal Cultivators under True Lord Huang Sha had arrived one after another.
“Through this permission, when I enter the Ancient Moon World again, I will be able to choose to teleport in front of the Ancient Moon Tower.”
Then, he got up and transformed into a reclining light, flying towards True Lord Huang Sha’s residence.
In every Ancient Moon World, there was more than one Ancient Moon Tower.
Whoosh!
In a short amount of time, he arrived at True Lord Huang Sha’s residence.
“Nine Specters Sky Covering Technique!”
He had some doubts in his heart, wondering what True Lord Huang Sha had called them to do.
And unlike when he was under the Red Flame True Lord before, every month, the Red Flame True Lord would call them over.
Entering the Ancient Moon World together?
Upon hearing this, the crowd looked at each other for a while.
After undergoing one trial, one could even obtain the inheritance of an Ancient Moon True Immortal.
Seeing him arrive, Zhang Shouquan directly turned his head.
But ……
seeing Chen Fan, the crowd greeted him.
For a moment, everyone got excited.
When entering the Ancient Moon Tower, even if one could not pass all the trials, they were usually able to receive small gifts bestowed by the True Immortal Ancient Moon.
These small gifts were small gifts to the True Immortal of the Ancient Moon.
But to them, they were all treasures that required a great cost to obtain.
“Let’s go.”
True Lord Yellow Sand looked at the crowd’s expression and didn’t say anything.
Straight away, he walked out of his residence, rose into the air, and led the crowd, flying towards the entrance of the Ancient Moon World.
“Whoosh!”
“Whoosh!”
After the group arrived here, it wasn’t long before there were two recluse lights in the distance, speedily sweeping in, and it was none other than the Heavenly Ruler True Lord and the Five Poison True Lord.
Both of them also brought their respective men with them, clearly ready to enter the Ancient Moon World with the crowd.
“Alright, everyone has arrived, let’s set off.”
After seeing that everyone had arrived, True Lord Huang Sha said a word, and then he activated his authority and surged his mana, enveloping everyone in it.
Afterward, their group of nearly thirty people flew towards the entrance of the Ancient Moon World.
“Brush!”
Then, the crowd only felt a blur before their eyes and realized that they had appeared in an unfamiliar location.
This was a vast valley, and in the center of the valley was a towering pagoda, which was none other than the Ancient Moon Pagoda.
“Is this the Ancient Moon Tower?”
Seeing the Ancient Moon Tower, the gazes of the crowd, all of a sudden, became scorched.
It was the Heavenly Ruler True Lord and the others who were no exception.
“The trials of the Ancient Moon Tower are not only based on strength, but also on luck.”
“Especially the first space of the Ancient Moon Tower, which has many Moon Beasts surviving within it, Moon Beasts are a special kind of life derived by True Lord Ancient Moon through the world he created.”
“You and others need to obtain ten Ancient Moon Pearls by killing the Moon Beasts in order to enter the second level of the Ancient Moon Tower trial.”
“In addition to that, all of you will initially obtain an Ancient Moon Bead when you first enter the Ancient Moon Tower.”
“If you all encounter danger in the Ancient Moon Tower, you can choose to crush the Ancient Moon Pearl and teleport to another area.”
“When the Ancient Moon Pearls in your hands, are consumed and empty, and you have not yet passed the first level of the Ancient Moon Tower’s trial, you will be automatically teleported out of the Ancient Moon Tower after ten breaths.”
“Also on the first floor of the Ancient Moon Tower, there will be many treasures.”
“Among these treasure lands, there is usually some sort of treasure that is bred.”
“I’ve seen a desert before when I was trying out on the first floor of the Ancient Moon Tower, and within that desert, a strange treasure, the Funnel of Sand, was birthed.”
“It’s just that at that time, that desert happened to erupt in a natural disaster level sandstorm, making me have to retreat, this time when I entered the Ancient Moon Tower, you and the others, if any of you are able to obtain that Sand Funnel, you can bring it back to exchange with me.”
“I can take out 50,000 third-order boundary stones, and at the same time, I can promise that all the boundary stones you and others obtain next will belong to you.”
The Yellow Sand True Lord spoke.
This was the main purpose of him bringing the crowd over.
That Funnel of Sand was just right for his attributes.
If he was able to obtain that Funnel of Sand, he would probably be able to advance to the late stage of YuanYing in a short period of time.
At that time, even if the Heavenly Ruler True Monarch and the Five Poisons True Monarch teamed up, they would be no match for him.
That way, he could reset the rules and distribute more boundary stones.
As for himself ……
He had already entered the Ancient Moon Tower once and had been brushed out during the trial on the first level of the Ancient Moon Tower.
Every Immortal Cultivator, in a realm, could only enter the Ancient Moon Tower once.
If he wanted to enter the Ancient Moon Tower again, he could only wait until he broke through to the Transformation God Stage.
“Thank you, True Lord!”
Upon hearing this, a group of Jindan Stage Immortal Cultivators, thanked and said.
“Go!”
True Lord Huang Sha waved his hand.
It signaled that the crowd could enter the Ancient Moon Tower.
“Whoosh!”
Seeing True Lord Huang Sha signaling, there were immediately Jindan stage Immortal cultivators that flew into the Ancient Moon Tower.
Then came the second, the third ……
Chen Fan similarly joined the crowd and flew into the Ancient Moon Tower.
In the end, outside the Ancient Moon Tower, only the three of them, True Monarch Huang Sha, remained.
Then, True Monarch Sky Ruler and True Monarch Five Poisons greeted True Monarch Huang Sha before they also entered the Ancient Moon Tower.
“Ancient Moon Tower!”
After seeing everyone enter the Ancient Moon Tower, True Lord Huang Sha revealed a few gloomy colors on his face.
Normally, the first level of the Ancient Moon Tower was a trial ground for Jindan Stage Immortal Cultivators.
It was the second level of the Ancient Moon Tower that was the trial ground for YuanYing stage Immortal cultivators.
It was just that he was too unlucky.
After entering the Ancient Moon Tower, he actually encountered several large-scale natural disasters one after another.
So much so that he hadn’t even broken through the first floor of the Ancient Moon Tower.
“Is this the first layer of the trial space of the Ancient Moon Tower?”
After entering the Ancient Moon Tower, Chen Fan’s figure flickered and appeared in a dense forest.
As he looked around, he only saw a huge beast roar faintly coming from the depths of the dense forest.
At the same time, with a flip of his hand, he saw that in his hand, there was an additional transparent bead with a halo of light.
“Ancient Moon Bead!”
Chen Fan muttered.
After the bead appeared in his hand, the information that True Lord Huang Sha had said earlier appeared in his mind one by one.
“It seems like the top priority is to obtain more Ancient Moon Beads.”
Chen Fan’s gaze flickered.
In the Ancient Moon Tower, as long as one possessed enough Ancient Moon Beads in their hands, they could have unlimited chances to save their lives.
Thinking of this, with a thought, he flew straight to the depths of the distant dense forest, in the direction where the beast’s roar had come from.
This beast roar was unusually loud.
Chen Fan flew forward for dozens of miles in a row before gradually approaching his destination.
“Roar!”
Suddenly, just as Chen Fan flew over a dense forest, a huge black shadow, violently swept out from the depths of the dense forest and pounced straight towards Chen Fan in the sky.
This was a beast that was shaped like a lion and tiger, but had a unicorn horn, its entire body fur was like a silver moon, but its eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty light.
“Late Jindan Moon Beast!”
Black and white colors flashed in Chen Fan’s eyes as he exerted his Yin Yang Tong Tian Pupil and saw the level of this Moon Beast with a single glance.
“Roar!”
Between thoughts, he waved his hand and summoned the Yin Yang Extreme Dragon.
Instantly, two spirit dragons, one black and one white, carried the power of arcane mana and crashed into the moon beast.
Each of these two spirit dragons was several hundred meters long.
Just by looking at their size, they completely surpassed the lion and tiger moon beasts that were pouncing upwards from below.
When the Lion Tiger Moon Beast saw the means displayed by Chen Fan, a hint of panic immediately appeared in its bloodthirsty eyes.
But in the next moment, before it could make a sound, the Yin Yang Spirit Dragons that were intertwined with each other, instantly strangled it under the pounce.
The body of the Lion Tiger Moon Beast exploded in the air with a bang, turning into a cloud of blood mist.
“Brush!”
Chen Fan reached out his hand, and right after the Lion Tiger Moon Beast was blasted apart, he ingested an Ancient Moon Bead that was glittering with light from within the mass of blood mist.
Afterward, without even looking at the mass of blood mist, he turned into a recluse and flew off into the distance.
“Is it luck?”
Chen Fan’s gaze flickered.
The first time he entered the Ancient Moon World before, he had obtained the Chaotic Emperor Seal fragment.
After using the Chaotic Emperor Seal Fragment and entering the Heavenly Destiny Cultivation World, he had directly subdued Wufu and the others.
In particular, the two of them, Wu Fu and Situ Demon Peng, were still both Six Heavenly Fates.
Then he entered the Ancient Moon World for the second time, and it didn’t even take him long to find a vein of boundary stones.
He entered the Ancient Moon Tower this time, and also quickly killed a moon beast and obtained an Ancient Moon Pearl.
This kind of situation could no longer be explained by coincidence.
It could only be that the Destiny’s Child talent that he had constantly wished for had worked.
“Continue!”
With that in mind, he continued to explore the first layer of space in the Ancient Moon Tower.
It could be that his luck was really good.
As he explored, it didn’t take long for him to find two more moon beasts.
After killing the two moon beasts, counting the initial Ancient Moon Bead, the number of Ancient Moon Beads in his hand, had reached four.
“Rumble!”
Suddenly, just as Chen Fan continued to explore in the forest, the forest underneath him, shook violently, and the entire thing actually flipped over, revealing a huge aura.
“This is ……”
Chen Fan’s eyes revealed a startled look.
As this forest flipped, he realized that this entire forest was actually a huge plant-like Moon Beast. Even after he exerted his Yin Yang Tong Tian Pupil, he was unable to tell what realm this plant-type moon beast was in.
“Pah!”
With a shock in his heart, Chen Fan hurriedly crushed an Ancient Moon Bead in his hand.
“Brush!”
In the next moment, his figure disappeared from the spot and was teleported to another area.
It was a black mountain range with steep peaks and jagged rocks, giving off a desolate and mysterious feeling.
Chen Fan looked around and realized that in this mountain range, a gloomy and cold aura was faintly permeating the area.
“The aura here is completely different from that forest before.”
His gaze flickered and he was alert in his heart.
In the first level of the Ancient Moon Tower’s trial space, there existed all sorts of moon beasts.
Not only were these moon beasts powerful, but for each type of moon beast, they had unique abilities and talents.
If one was slightly careless, one could potentially fall in the gutter.
Just like the terrifying forest he had encountered before.
If he had reacted slower at that time, even if he had the Ancient Moon Pearl in his hand, it would have been useless and he would have been directly crushed to death by that forest.
“Whoosh!”
Right at this moment, a cracking sound suddenly rang out.
When Chen Fan looked at the sound, he saw a black shadow, flying from a distant mountain peak.
It was a Moon Beast shaped like a bat, its entire body covered with black scale armor, and a pair of scarlet eyes that flashed with a bloodthirsty light.
“Mid-Jindan Moon Beast!”
Black and white colors flashed in Chen Fan’s eyes.
The strength of this Bat Moon Beast was a bit weaker than the Lion and Tiger Moon Beast from before.
“Brush!”
With a lift of his hand, Chen Fan summoned out a golden flying sword.
This golden flying sword was precisely one of the five flying swords with five attributes that he had refined into the Ten Thousand Laws Pearl.
As he advanced to the Jindan Stage, his Ten Thousand Dharma Pearl, along with it, was also contained into a magic treasure.
The Yin Yang Five Elements Sword Disk that he had refined into the Ten Thousand Dharma Bead, as well as the five five flying swords with five elemental attributes in the Sword Disk, had also reached the level of a Dharma Treasure.
“Whoosh!”
As soon as the flying swords came out, they transformed into a pizzicato sword light and chopped towards the Bat Moon Beast.
“Poof!”
The sword light instantly cut through the Batmoon Beast’s body, splitting it in two.
The body of the Batmoon Beast collapsed to the ground with a loud bang, without a sound.
With his current strength, decapitating these Jindan level moon beasts was just too simple.
With a single reach of his hand, Chen Fan captured the Ancient Moon Pearl that was revealed after the death of the Bat Moon Beast into his hand.
“Four more Ancient Moon Beads now.”
Looking at the Ancient Moon Beads in his hand, a smile appeared on Chen Fan’s face.
He had just consumed one Ancient Moon Pearl.
Therefore counting this Ancient Moon Bead, the number of Ancient Moon Beads in his hand was still four.
“Whoosh!”
With that thought, Chen Fan transformed into a recluse and searched for other moon beasts amongst this black mountain range.
“Snort!”
“Snort!”
In his continuous search, he soon found two more bat-type moon beasts.
These two moon beasts were both at the early Jindan stage.
After he killed them, the number of Ancient Moon Beads in his hand directly reached six.
“Rumble!”
Suddenly, just as Chen Fan was about to continue searching for the Moon Beast, his ears twitched and he heard a scuffle from the distance.
“Is it other Immortal Cultivators?”
Chen Fan’s gaze twitched.
“Go and take a look.”
Afterward, he flew straight in the direction where the sound came from.
In the Ancient Moon Tower, it was possible for Immortal cultivators who entered at the same time to run into each other.
After running into each other, they could even group up with each other.
Chen Fan turned into a recluse and quickly approached the source of the sound.
As the distance drew closer, the sound of fighting became clearer and clearer, and he could even feel the fluctuation of mana permeating the air.
Soon, he arrived at an open area.
He only saw a Jindan stage immortal cultivator in a fierce battle with a mid-Jindan moon beast.
The Immortal Cultivator was wearing a green robe and was controlling a silver flying sword, and between the flashes of sword light, he was in a fierce battle with the bat moon beast.
However, this Immortal Cultivator was only an early Jindan Immortal Cultivator.
Under the attack of the mid-Jindan Bat Moon Beast, it quickly fell into a disadvantage.
“Roar!”
The Bat Moon Beast roared and executed a variety of attacks.
It completely suppressed this early Jindan cultivator.
“Green-clothed Realist.”
Chen Fan recognized this person at a glance.
This Immortal Cultivator wearing a green robe was none other than an early stage Jindan Immortal Cultivator under the Five Poison True Lord.
“Whoosh!”
Seeing that he had fallen into a disadvantage, Chen Fan appeared in the middle of the battlefield with a flash of his body.
With a wave of his hand, the golden flying sword flew out right after, and with a brush sound, like lightning, it chopped on the neck of this mid-Jindan Moon Beast.
It chopped off its head on the spot.
“Whoosh!”
An Ancient Moon Bead that shimmered with light was ingested by Chen Fan and grasped it in his hand.
When the green-clothed real person saw this scene, he immediately revealed a look of shock.
There was almost no one under the three True Lords who did not recognize Chen Fan.
Everyone knew that Chen Fan was able to cross the level and kill a Jindan with his Foundation Stage cultivation.
But ……
This was more than just killing a Jindan at an overstep level?
As his mind shook, he hurriedly arched his hand to Chen Fan and thanked him, “Thank you, Fellow Daoist Chen, for your help, if not ……”
Whoosh!
However, before his words fell, Chen Fan’s figure flickered and arrived in front of him.
Before he could react, an Ancient Moon Pearl that was held in his hand was snapped out of his hand by Chen Fan.
Then, Chen Fan landed a large hand as heavy as a mountain on his shoulder.
“This ……”
Instantly, an irresistible force came from Chen Fan’s large hand, suppressing him so much that he could not move.
“Fellow Daoist Chen, you ……”
The green-clothed real person looked at Chen Fan in shock, not knowing what he was going to do.
“Do you know about the Chaotic Emperor Seal?”
Chen Fan smiled faintly as he looked at the green-clothed real person.
“You!”
The pupils of the Green Clothed Realist shrank.
How could he not know the Chaotic Emperor Seal.
The last time another continent crossed paths with their continent, almost everyone knew about this supreme treasure.
“Now I will use the Chaos Emperor Seal to take you to the Heavenly Fate Cultivation World.”
“Remember not to resist, otherwise don’t blame me if anything happens!”
Chen Fan spoke faintly.
With that said, he activated the power of the Chaotic Emperor Seal with a single thought and enveloped the green-clothed real person.
The Ancient Moon World was very special.
Here, everyone was unable to connect through the Heavenly Yuan Realm Seal.
So he wasn’t afraid of the Green Clothes Realist spreading the news out.
Chaotic Emperor Seal?
The True Clothes Realist swallowed his spit.
Standing in place, he didn’t dare to move.
“Brush!”
In the next moment, under the shroud of the Chaotic Emperor Seal, the figure of this Jindan Stage Immortal Cultivator disappeared in place and was teleported to the Heavenly Destiny Immortal Cultivation Realm by Chen Fan through the Chaotic Emperor Seal.
In the Heaven’s Destiny Immortal Cultivation Realm, within the secret room of the City Lord’s Mansion of Cliffless City.
“Buzz!”
Accompanied by a spatial buzz, the figure of the green-clothed Realist appeared in the secret room.
As soon as he stabilized his figure, he saw a young man wearing an emperor’s robe with an aura like an abyss.
This youth was exactly the same as Chen Fan.
However, it looked a little less dusty and a little more majestic.
It was precisely Chen Fan’s Chaotic Emperor Body.
“Welcome to my Ten Thousand Lives Dynasty!”
A smile appeared on Chen Fan’s face.
……
“Whoosh!”
On the other hand, Chen Fan continued his exploration in the black mountain range after sending the Green Clothes Realist into the Heaven’s Destiny Cultivation World.
“Rumble!”
Just at this moment, in the black mountain range, countless black smoke suddenly rushed out, Chen Fan’s pupils shrunk, and he suddenly saw countless tiny bugs in these smoke.
Or rather, these black smokes were composed of countless bugs.
Chen Fan maneuvered his mana and formed a Yin-Yang Polar Dragon, laying down a Yin-Yang Domain, blocking these bugs outside his body.
“Zi Zi!”
But as soon as these bugs came into contact with the yin and yang domain, they launched an erosion against the domain he had laid down.
Chen Fan’s face changed.
These bugs were consuming too much of his mana.
Even with the thickness of his mana, he could not hold on for long.
“That’s ……”
Right at this moment, Chen Fan’s eyes flashed and saw a black honeycomb-shaped stone entwined in the center of the countless black smoke.
“Is it some sort of exotic treasure?”
Chen Fan did not rush to leave.
With a thought, he rushed towards the center of the black smoke.
The closer he got to the center of the black smoke, the more his mana was consumed.
But ……
could still hold on!
“Got it!”
A few breaths later, Chen Fan’s hand reached out and he ingested the honeycomb-shaped black stone in the center of the black smoke into his hand right under the Yin-Yang Domain’s shroud.
“Snap!”
Then with a movement of his hand, he crushed an Ancient Moon Pearl and was teleported away from this place.
“This is …….”
In an instant, Chen Fan’s figure appeared in front of a huge black mountain peak.
Unlike the previous black mountains, there was only such a peak here.
At the same time, below the black mountain range, there was a black cave.
It looked a bit like the Foundation Building Mound Domain that he had entered before.
After Chen Fan landed his figure, he surveyed his surroundings and immediately lifted his eyebrows.
He was not the only one in front of this black mountain peak.
Besides him, there were surprisingly four other people.
Among these four people, one was Zhang Shouquan.
The other three, on the other hand, were none other than the Heavenly Ruler True Lord and his two Jindan stage henchmen.
“Chen Xuan?”
Seeing Chen Fan, the Heavenly Ruler True Monarch raised an eyebrow, but then, with a movement in his heart, he took out a disk and after surveying it, he looked deeply at Chen Fan.
Jindan stage!
The disk in his hand could sense the cultivation level of the cultivators around him.
He clearly remembered that the last time he saw Chen Fan, Chen Fan’s cultivation level was still Foundation Establishment Perfection.
Before, outside, because of the large number of people, he did not check carefully.
However, he did not expect that Chen Fan had actually broken through to the Jindan Stage in such a short period of time.
“This son only started off at the late Foundation Establishment stage, in such a short period of time, its actually risen two steps in a row, what secret is he hiding?”
The Heavenly Ruler True Lord’s heart shook.
Chen Fan was hiding too well.
If it wasn’t for the exotic treasure in his hand, even he wouldn’t have been able to discover that Chen Fan had actually broken through to the Jindan stage.
