Chapter 423 – Remains of the Immortal Palace
Chapter 423 – Immortal Palace Ruins
Cheng Qingjia’s residual soul had the same doubts in its heart.
He carefully surveyed the shadowy soul, “Ancestor, ancestor? Are you a human or a ghost now?”
The shadowy soul glared at him in an unfavorable manner, “Nonsense, of course I’m a ghost. Don’t you know that I died a thousand years ago?”
Cheng Qingjia’s remnant soul shivered, inexplicably feeling a little cold.
“Hey, knowing that I’m a ghost, scared?”
The Yin Spirit gave him an evil look, “You think you can be any better than me now? The Yuan Shen only has three souls left, and it’s still so weak, it’s really not even close to being a ghost.”
Cheng Qingjia’s residual soul was so ashamed by what was said that he couldn’t raise his head, truly disgraced to his ancestors.
However, the Yin Spirit refused to let him off the hook, still chattering and counting.
She stayed in this ghost place for more than a thousand years, all day long is to bitter cultivation, bitter cultivation. Now there is finally someone who can listen to her, it’s not easy!
After she finished counting, she began to recount her experiences back then.
“It’s also luck, I was originally dead that day, but the clan’s most precious treasure, the Soul Gathering Lamp, was in my hands, and by mistake, it gathered my residual soul. The remnants of my soul were gathered but not dispersed, and over time I became the spirit of the Soul Gathering Lamp.”
Saying this, she seemed to glance at Xu Chuniang with deep meaning.
“So if you are here for the Soul Gathering Lamp, I’m afraid I’ll have to disappoint you. Moreover, the Soul Gathering Lamp is an object of Penglai, and you will be targeted as soon as you move it in the outside world.”
Xu Chuniang instantly understood that this Cheng Clan ancestor was cautioning himself.
“The late generation did not come for the Soul Gathering Lamp, and this is the first time I’ve heard of the name of this item.”
“It’s best if you can think this way. To tell you the truth, even if you really want this Soul Gathering Lamp, you won’t be able to snatch it away.”
Yin soul seems to smile, “Although I am a spirit, but trapped here for nearly a thousand years, is not a waste of time.”
Cheng Qingjia’s remnant soul waved in front of his own old ancestor, wanting very much to tell the old ancestor that Daoist Xu was not that kind of person.
However, the old ancestor casually leaked out a trace of his soul power and held him down.
Xu Chuniang suddenly thought of something and grabbed the vial containing Zhan Luo’s Yuan Shen and opened it.
“His seven souls have been refined, I wonder if senior has a method to strip them away?”
The Yin Soul carelessly glanced at Zhan Luo’s Yuan Shen, and without seeing how she moved, the several boundaries on Zhan Luo’s Yuan Shen dispersed as much as they could, and the Yuan Shen began to violently distort.
“Ah! What are you? What have you done to me?”
Zhan Luo’s Yuan Shen trembled dramatically and cried out in pain. She felt like her divine soul was about to collapse.
The Yin Soul snorted coldly, but didn’t stay his hand.
The other party had bullied her descendant with such tactics, and what she was doing right now was just getting it back!
Zhan Luo’s Yuan Shen constantly trembled, terrified to the extreme.
What in the world was the other party’s origin, that they had the ability to strip away the seven vampires that had been refined by her!
She had a premonition that once these seven vampires were completely stripped away, it was the time when her soul would be scattered.
“You can’t do this, my Zhan family has YuanYing cultivators, when they find out the cause of my death, they will definitely sweep away the Cheng family to avenge me! My own sister is even Penglai’s cultivation, will be for me to get back ……”
“Croak!”
The Yin Soul softly shouted, and a soul force ruthlessly smacked Zhan Luo’s Yuan Shen, causing her to no longer be able to transmit any soul fluctuations.
Xu Chuniang watched the Yin Soul’s movements from the sidelines, and in her heart, she secretly guessed up, the cultivation level of this Yin Soul. It had a strong aura, was incredibly swift when attacking, and even understood the method of stripping the soul, most likely, its strength was comparable to that of a YuanYing.
After the Yin Soul stripped the seven souls, it casually crushed Zhan Luo’s Yuan Shen, and then recruited Cheng Qingjia’s residual soul into its hands.
After resolving these, she glanced at Xu Chuniang, “Let me think about …… what to do with you?”
Cheng Qingjia’s remnant soul weakly spoke, “Ancestor, this is my savior ……”
“Know, nagging!”
The shadowy soul grumbled impatiently, and instantly rolled up a jade hairpin from nowhere and threw it towards Xu Chuniang.
“This is what I owned in my lifetime, so I’ll hand it over to you today as payment for helping my Cheng family. I’m afraid that after a thousand years of time, a lot of the things in here are no longer usable.
But there is an Immortal Palace Order inside that is worth more than a million spirit stones. When you go out and sell it, the price will definitely only be higher.”
Xu Chuniang took the jade hairpin and asked with some doubt.
“I don’t know what the Immortal Palace Order that senior mentioned is?”
“The so-called Immortal Palace Order is the access token that allows one to travel to the Immortal Palace Ruins. The Immortal Palace Ruins is the place where the core disciples of the three Immortal Islands of Penglai, Yingzhou, and Fangzhang, and the Ancestral Islands of the Ten Continents train.”
The Yin Soul spoke indifferently, “The minimum requirement to enter the Immortal Palace Ruins is Jindan cultivation. Back then, I obtained this Immortal Palace Order, but I didn’t have the time to go there and perished.
Immortal Palace Ruins open every hundred years, right now the next opening is less than three years away, you have to sell it as soon as possible after you go out, otherwise once three years have passed, the value will hit a lot of discounts.”
Xu Chuniang’s gaze moved slightly, according to what this ancestor of the Cheng Family had said, the Immortal Palace Ruins was a place for the core disciples of the three great immortal islands and the ten continents’ ancestral islands to practice.
Then there must be extremely extraordinary opportunities in this relic!
“I wonder if I can enter this Immortal Palace Ruins that senior said?”
“Naturally you can, didn’t I say that you can enter with a Jindan cultivation? It’s just that your cultivation breaking through the Jindan should be a recent event. With your Jindan layer one cultivation entering it, it’s honestly a bit dangerous, I wouldn’t advise you to do so.”
The Yin Spirit was actually a bit subtle in what she said, in her opinion, a loose cultivator at the first layer of Jindan, entering the Immortal Palace Ruins was simply a death sentence.
Xu Chuniang listened and thought seriously, she was neither a disciple of the three great immortal islands, nor was she a person of the ancestral island, holding this Immortal Palace Order, could she enter this Immortal Palace Ruins?
Yin Soul heard her concerns, but was unimpressed.
“There is no harm. In addition to the three Immortal Islands and the ten Ancestral Continent, there were originally some Immortal Palace Orders scattered out there, just not a lot of them, but one or two hundred of them are always there.”
Xu Chuniang was relieved when she heard this, and turned to ask about things related to the Immortal Palace Ruins.
The Yin Spirit thought back for a moment and shook her head.
“I haven’t been inside, and I’m not sure about the specifics. I only know that the Immortal Palace Ruins are extremely large, and there are many supreme inheritances inside. If one has the chance to obtain one of them, it would be an amazing creation.”
Xu Chuniang’s eyes brightened slightly, “Are there any techniques inside?”
“Naturally, there are, not limited to feats, techniques, body forging techniques, divine sense techniques, dan talisman array weapon paths, and so on, all kinds of inheritance, but whether or not one can get it depends on one’s luck.”
When the Yin Spirit said this, his words turned and his tone became a little more serious, implying a warning.
“It’s just that although there are opportunities in this Immortal Palace Ruins, there are just as many crises. Not to mention the various organs, prohibitions and formations in the relics, it’s the Jindan cultivators of those Immortal Island Ancestral Lands who can enter them, none of them are the elite of the elite.”
Yin Soul was close to explicitly stating that with her identity as a loose cultivator and her strength at the first Jindan layer, she was afraid that even if she got the benefits, she wouldn’t be able to keep them at all.
