Chapter 105: The Changes in Kong Sang Mountain
After Qin Wuyan and his group stepped into Kong Sang Mountain, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.
As soon as they entered deep into the mountain’s interior, the sight before them was vastly different from what they had expected.
The bats hanging upside down in the passage beca abnormally bloodthirsty, their strength far beyond imagination.
The mont the group stepped inside, they were thrown into utter chaos by these creatures. If not for their deep cultivation, they would have nearly lost their lives on the spot.
After surviving nine deaths and one life, the three of them barely managed to break into the inner depths, but each of them carried injuries.
Qin Wuyan was both shocked and furious, his heart filled with frustration.
In his knowledge, the fact that Fa Xiang possessed the strength of the Upper Purity Realm was already difficult to comprehend, yet the terrifying power Lu Xueqi displayed was even more at odds with the 《Zhu Xian》 novel he had read in his past life.
As a student from an island nation studying abroad in Great Xia, Qin Wuyan had once been obsessed with Great Xia’s online novels, with 《Zhu Xian》 being his very first introduction.
After transmigrating here, he had been ecstatic, imagining himself punching the Poison God, kicking aside the Qingyun Sect, gathering the beauties, treasures, and cultivation arts of this world into his hands, and ultimately transcending the mortal realm to achieve immortality and indestructibility.
What thrilled him even more was that upon transmigration, he had brought with him the “Sharingan,” the fad eye technique from island-nation ani.
Although it was still dormant for now, he firmly believed that once his strength reached its peak, both Qingyun Sect and the Ten Thousand Poison Sect would be nothing more than his vassals.
After a short rest, Qin Wuyan continued forward with Ancestor Duanmu and the Bloodsucking Old Demon.
When they reached a fork in the path, they discovered a broken stone tablet. The four words carved upon it—“Heaven’s Dao Lies in ”—were faintly discernible.
Relying on his mory of the original story, he decisively chose the path beside the stone tablet.
However, the mont they stepped into the passage, darkness instantly engulfed them. A strange force suppressed their spiritual sense, and before they could react, they were already lost within the depths of this eerie tunnel.
On the other side, Lu Xueqi stood outside the cave, probing within with her spiritual sense. She faintly detected so abnormal fluctuations.
Although she did not know exactly what these strange disturbances ant, she felt they were certainly not good.
After a mont of thought, she decided to wait until Zhang Xiaofan arrived and until Fa Xiang had recovered before venturing inside together.
Though the aura within the cave was bizarre, with her cultivation at the Supre Purity Realm, coupled with the improved 《Tai Chi Profound Immortal Scripture》 she had cultivated, her combat strength far surpassed others of the sa realm. She no longer put potential dangers in her eyes.
With that, Lu Xueqi led the group back to the cave where they had previously rested.
After so ti, the sound of sothing breaking through the air suddenly ca from afar.
She turned her head and saw a young man of ordinary appearance riding upon a staff-like magical artifact, flying hurriedly in the direction of Kong Sang Mountain.
The young man’s face carried the marks of hardship, his eyes filled with worry and urgency.
Upon reaching Kong Sang Mountain, he looked around ceaselessly, as if searching for soone.
Lu Xueqi, seeing Zhang Xiaofan’s arrival, nodded slightly.
Toward this dull junior brother, she felt neither affection nor dislike—rely regarding him as a fellow disciple of the Qingyun Sect.
“Junior Brother Zhang, you’re here. Co quickly,” Lu Xueqi called out.
Hearing the transmission, Zhang Xiaofan was first startled, then overjoyed. The anxiety and worry in his eyes instantly dissipated.
He looked toward the direction of the voice, and upon seeing the peerlessly beautiful figure at the cave’s entrance, the tight expression on his face finally relaxed completely.
With joy in his eyes, his figure flashed as he flew toward Lu Xueqi.
Landing, Zhang Xiaofan asked with deep concern: “Senior Sister Lu, are you alright?”
Hearing this, and seeing the undisguised worry in his eyes, Lu Xueqi’s heart gave a sudden jolt.
Could it be that this boy, Zhang Xiaofan, had developed feelings for her?
Her expression grew even colder, as she replied in a deep voice: “I am fine. Since you are here, co into the cave and rest. Later, we will explore Kong Sang Mountain together.”
Without waiting for Zhang Xiaofan’s reply, she turned and walked directly into the cave.
Lu Xueqi bore no feelings of love toward Zhang Xiaofan and did not wish him to harbor unnecessary thoughts, so she deliberately kept her distance.
Zhang Xiaofan, seeing her turn and enter the cave, did not find it strange nor noticed her deliberate detachnt.
In his mory, this Senior Sister had always been aloof and otherworldly. Her present deanor only overlapped perfectly with the image he carried of her, causing him to unconsciously fall further into infatuation.
As Zhang Xiaofan stepped into the cave, Qi Hao and Lin Jingyu raised their eyes to look at him, their expressions instantly becoming complicated.
As transmigrators, they knew well that Zhang Xiaofan was the Child of Destiny of this world.
They both hoped for him to et misfortune so that they could take his place, yet at the sa ti feared that if he truly perished, the course of the world would change, and the advantage they held from knowing the plot would vanish completely.
Amidst their tangled feelings, the two still rose to greet him: “Junior Brother Zhang, you’ve co.”
Zhang Xiaofan returned the salute: “Senior Brother Qi, Jingyu.”
Lin Jingyu took the initiative to introduce Zhang Xiaofan to Fa Xiang, Fa Shan, Li Xun, and Yan Hong.
During the introductions, the mont Fa Xiang’s gaze landed on Zhang Xiaofan, his expression shifted slightly, as though he had already heard of this na before.
But after only one glance, he withdrew his eyes.
After his recuperation, the injuries on his body had already co under control, and his strength had recovered sowhat.
Seeing this, Lu Xueqi said: “Rest for the night. Tomorrow, we will investigate Kong Sang Mountain. The sooner we eradicate the Demonic Sect, the sooner we can return to the sect to report.”
None voiced disagreent. Qi Hao and the others nodded: “Everything will follow Junior Sister Lu’s arrangents.”
Fa Xiang naturally had no objections—he was hoping for more ti to heal his injuries anyway.
Li Xun, however, was gazing at Lu Xueqi with infatuation. Whatever she said, he would agree without hesitation.
Since the mont he had first seen Lu Xueqi, Li Xun had tried repeatedly to approach her, attempting to strike up conversation and get acquainted.
Yet each ti, Qi Hao and Lin Jingyu would, intentionally or otherwise, block his attempts.
Seeing this, Li Xun grew furious in his heart, quickly realizing that the two of them also held intentions toward Lu Xueqi. Rage and resentnt welled within him, and he even began secretly plotting how to get rid of these two “love rivals.”
The next morning, sunlight filtered through the cracks at the cave’s entrance, casting dappled halos of light upon the interior.
Lu Xueqi sat cross-legged upon a massive stone. Her eyes opened quietly, a flash of brilliance flickering within them.
Examining her cultivation internally, she could not help but show a look of satisfaction.
After days of cultivation, she had already reached the late stage of the First Level of the Supre Purity Realm.
At this pace, within less than a month she would be able to break through to the Second Level of the Supre Purity Realm.
Such progress was terrifying. One had to know that even Daoxuan, after more than ten years of cultivation, had only just barely reached the peak of the First Level of the Supre Purity Realm, now about to strike at the Second Level.
From this, it was evident how difficult each step after the Supre Purity Realm truly was. Moreover, given the thin spiritual energy in this world, even with Lu Xueqi’s 《Tai Chi Profound Purity Dao》 that could rapidly devour the qi of heaven and earth, cultivation was still far from easy.
She could not help but think to herself: if she were in a place where the spiritual energy was abundant, then with her cultivation thod, her realm advancent would surely be even swifter.
At the first light of dawn, Lu Xueqi habitually opened the chat group and tapped directly on the sign-in button.
“Ding, sign-in successful, points 5.”
Looking at the notification, she faintly curled her lips.
For her current cultivation, such a small amount of points was nothing more than a drop in the ocean.
But holding to the belief of “no matter how small, it’s still at,” she still persisted in checking in every day.
Afterward, her gaze shifted to the chat group panel, only to find the group utterly silent. None of the mbers were online.
She casually scrolled through the chat logs and soon discovered the news that Xiaolongnü had obtained an inheritance.
Then, her attention was drawn to a ssage from Huang Rong.
Huang Rong had placed the mortal section of the 《Hundred Flowers Immortal Scripture》 up for sale in the chat group marketplace.
Seeing this, Lu Xueqi imdiately felt a spark of interest.
Opening the marketplace, she quickly found the cultivation thod.
The 《Hundred Flowers Immortal Scripture》’s portion for realms below immortals was divided into nine levels. Its realm divisions were similar to the 《Tai Chi Profound Immortal Scripture》 she cultivated. Its price, however, was as high as ninety thousand points.
This made her hesitate—should she exchange for it now? If she did, it would nearly deplete all her more than one hundred thousand accumulated points.
If she used the points to directly increase her cultivation, she could imdiately break through to the Third Level of the Supre Purity Realm.
But if she purchased the technique and integrated it into the 《Tai Chi Profound Immortal Scripture》, she might be able to create an even more powerful cultivation system.
After a brief mont of hesitation, Lu Xueqi made her decision:
“Chat group, purchase the 《Hundred Flowers Immortal Scripture》.”
“Ding, purchase successful. 《Hundred Flowers Immortal Scripture》 has been delivered.”
The content of the technique instantly surged into her mind, and she focused herself to receive it.
Once she had completely absorbed it, the brilliance in Lu Xueqi’s eyes grew dazzling.
As expected, the inheritance of the ancient Golden Immortal, the Peony Fairy, was extraordinary.
Cultivating the 《Hundred Flowers Immortal Scripture》 could condense the Hundred Flowers Immortal Body. This Immortal Body would grant its possessor an endless source of vitality, enabling rapid recovery from injuries and providing imnsely strong defensive power.
