Chapter 286 Linglong Immortal
If the foundation of the Fire God Furnace was not strong enough, it might not be possible to successfully refine it using the method of eternal life in more than two months.
Of course, this is also due to the joint efforts of the nine eternal giants.
Even among the ten sects of immortality, it is an extremely rare thing to invite nine eternal giants at once, including one who is in the third level of the immortal cave heaven realm.
Although the Lihuo Divine Furnace could only exert the power of a top-grade Taoist weapon at present, it was enough to suppress the mark left by Taihuntian on Yu Zhentian's body.
Chai Xin activated the Lihuo Divine Furnace not by relying on magic power, but just like in the early years, relying on the power of his own bloodline that was closely related to it.
In other words, although this treasure is not his natal magic weapon, it is better than his natal magic weapon. It consumes less energy to use and is more powerful.
His physical body is so strong now that the blood power belonging to Emperor Hengyu in his body naturally increases as well.
The lack of magic power is completely offset by the powerful bloodline power, and he can handle it with ease.
If it were replaced with any other Taoist weapon, even if it was only a low-grade Taoist weapon, it would be impossible for Chai Xin to fully activate it with his current level of immortality cultivation. At most, he could be comparable to some cultivators in the sixth level of the Golden Core Realm in terms of supernatural power, and it would be considered good if he could activate one thousandth of it.
Only cultivators who have reached the first level of the Longevity Realm can refine and fully activate lower-grade Taoist tools; as for mid-grade Taoist tools, only strong people in the Immortal Body Realm can refine and fully exert their power.
But once you reach the level of a top-grade Taoist weapon, it is no longer as simple as improving your cultivation by one level.
Only a great master who has reached the fifth level of the creation realm with supernatural powers, that is, an existence at the same level as Feng Baiyu, the head of the Yuhua Sect, can refine and fully unleash the full power of a top-grade Taoist weapon!
Not to mention the top-grade Taoist weapons, one must be at least a powerful person at the seventh level of the Immortal Realm King who has mastered the power of the world before one can begin to try to refine them.
Moreover, it is not certain to succeed, and the process is very cumbersome and difficult.
In fact, many powerful people in the Realm King Realm are still using high-quality Taoist tools, simply because they cannot collect suitable materials and lack the necessary conditions.
Only the super masters who have reached the eighth level of the Chaotic Cave Realm of Immortality, and who have survived the thunder tribulation and possessed the ability to absorb the liquid immortal energy from the immortal world, can possess a top-grade Taoist weapon!
Therefore, if one can fully activate a top-grade Taoist weapon, the power it unleashes is enough to rival or even suppress a strong person in the realm of creation.
After all, even the strong ones in the realm of creation cannot make everyone have top-grade Taoist weapons. After all, refining one's own magical weapon requires a lot of resources and time.
As for the mark left by Tai Huntian on Yu Zhentian, that goes without saying.
It’s not that Tai Huntian is not strong, but Yu Zhentian, as the carrier, has only cultivated an immortal body. The upper limit of the power he can withstand is there, and Tai Huntian cannot easily deploy stronger means.
Otherwise, the price to pay would be too high, possibly no less than the value of a top-grade Taoist weapon.
The reason why the top leaders of Taiyi Sect sent Yu Zhentian to investigate Chi Yuntian's death was actually just a casual move, to prevent any powerful people other than Linglong Immortal Venerable from taking the opportunity to target them.
Otherwise, if the purpose is really to deal with Linglong Immortal Venerable, what role can an immortal Yu Zhentian play?
It's just suicide!
Not to mention Yu Zhentian, even if Tai Huntian personally came out to take action, if he really encountered Linglong Xianzun, he would have to run for his life, and he had to escape decisively. If he was a step slower, he would die on the spot!
However, Taiyi Sect is the largest sect in the immortal world after all, and the top leaders are quite thorough in their work. Although they have basically determined that this was done by Immortal Master Linglong, they still left some room for maneuver.
What if other people are trying to take advantage of the situation and intensify the conflict between Taiyi Sect and other factions? We cannot just ignore it.
But if you think about it carefully, why would a master who has the ability to block Tai Huntian's calculations resort to such crude means?
Therefore, the top leaders of Taiyi Sect still feel that this possibility is unlikely.
Even if this is true, the culprit behind the scenes cannot be too strong. At most, he is at the fourth or fifth level of Changsheng.
Otherwise, firstly, there is no need to do such a thing. Secondly, if it was a stronger master, the power of the Ether Sect would not be unaware of it.
In the Xuanhuang world, there are so many masters at the seventh level of immortality and above that they can be counted on two hands. They are paying attention to each other's movements openly and secretly. Who can hide from everyone's eyes and ears?
It's like an enemy country has quietly transported nuclear weapons into our country, a possibility that is infinitely close to zero.
If this were really the case, all the major immortal sects, including the Taiyi Sect, would not have been able to reach their current status.
After comprehensive consideration, the Taiyi Sect sent Yu Zhentian, a man with sufficient strength to withstand a casual imprint from Tai Huntian, to investigate.
Yu Zhentian's own strength, coupled with the mark of Tai Huntian, is enough to make the head of the Yuhua Sect feel difficult. Could it be that he is unable to deal with the suspected mastermind behind the scenes?
As long as they can be stopped for a moment, Tai Huntian will arrive soon, and it will be easy to capture the culprit then.
In fact, it cannot be said that the thinking of the Taiyi Sect’s top leaders was wrong. It was just that Chai Xin’s situation was too special.
Although he did not have the strength of Linglong Xianzun, he had the help of the Lihuo Divine Furnace, a magical weapon connected to him by blood, which was enough to unleash an offensive in an instant that would force even the fifth or sixth level Changsheng strongmen to retreat.
Although the mark that Tai Huntian casually laid was not weak, it could not withstand the full force of Chai Xin's attack using the Lihuo Divine Furnace.
"boom!"
Under the horrified gaze of everyone, the brilliant divine light that burst out from the Lihuo Divine Furnace instantly completely obscured the green light that burst out from Yu Zhentian's head.
"How can this be?"
Yu Zhentian watched the mark between his eyebrows fade quickly. He was shocked to the point of disbelief at first, and then he fell into uncontrollable fear, his face trembling slightly.
"Be honest and you will avoid physical pain."
Chai Xin glanced at him coldly, and in a flash of thought, he put it into the Buddha umbrella space.
After losing the magical imprint left by Tian Huntian, Yu Zhentian was just an ordinary immortal cultivator. Of course, he had no power to resist Chai Xin.
"Tianji, collect the others quickly, or else something unexpected will happen!"
As Chai Xin spoke, his figure appeared in various directions like a ghost.
For a moment, whether it was the numerous disciples of Taiyi Sect, or other independent cultivators or disciples of sects, they all disappeared one by one.
"I am the son of the Xiantian Demon Emperor. Please don't hurt me, senior. Everything can be discussed!"
Demon Commander Ying Tianqing watched Zhao Xuanyi disappear not far in front of him, and the fear on his face immediately reached its peak. However, no matter how hard he struggled, he could hardly mobilize any magic power, and his body felt like it was being pressed down by thousands of mountains, unable to move at all.
"I have no grudges against my predecessors, so there is no need to..."
He had only said half of his words when Chai Xin waved his hand and put it into the space of the Buddha umbrella.
On the other side, the Tianji Demon God was not slow in action either. With the cooperation of everyone, he soon subdued all the people present.
"It's not a good place to stay for a long time, let's go."
Chai Xin waved his hand and shot out two rays of divine light, which swept up Fang Han and Fang Qingxue and sent them into the Buddha Umbrella space.
The next moment, he immediately performed the Great Tide Technique and once again escaped into the bottom of the deep ocean. The nine eternal giants, along with five million celestial demons, and many cultivators in the secret realm of magical powers, all activated their magic power and transmitted it to Chai Xin.
In a blink of an eye, they escaped thousands of miles away. After a few breaths, they arrived in a deep sea trench where the sun could not be seen.
At the same time, outside Taiyuan Immortal Palace.
"Crack!"
The void suddenly split open, and a figure in a green robe appeared on the sea, with a look of surprise. As his eyes swept across the nearby sea area, the suspicion in his eyes became more and more intense.
"Who on earth was it that broke my mark? In just a few breaths, he disappeared without a trace. I couldn't even detect the slightest trace of his presence..."
The person who came was none other than Tai Huntian, the head of Taiyi Sect.
The mark that Tai Huntian placed on Yu Zhentian not only has powerful defensive and offensive power, but can also serve as a coordinate to guide his real body to arrive quickly.
But in just a few moments, the scene was empty, without even a trace left.
This is all thanks to a special ability of the Jade of Creation. Wherever it passes, any trace can be easily erased, and even the most powerful beings will find it difficult to detect it.
Tai Huntian raised his hand and began to calculate, but he still found nothing. However, he could confirm that the culprit of this incident was not Linglong Immortal Venerable.
According to Linglong Immortal Venerable's style of doing things, he would never escape immediately after killing someone. He might even wait there deliberately, waiting for Taihuntian's arrival.
"Who on earth could block my calculations and yet resort to such low-brow methods?"
Tai Huntian sighed lightly and was about to further consume his lifespan to track down the traces of Yu Zhentian and the many members of the Taiyi Sect, and then deduce the location of the culprit behind the scenes.
But with a slight tremor in the void, he suddenly changed.
"Tai Huntian, after more than 900 years, you finally dare to step out of Taiyi Sect?"
A huge voice suddenly resounded across hundreds of thousands of miles of sea. Countless living beings heard it clearly and at the same time felt a great will as mighty as that of a god, stirring the nine heavens and ten earths.
Then, a graceful figure dressed in men's clothes slowly emerged above the sea.
Immortal Linglong was dressed in a purple robe with dragon patterns and a black winged crown on her head. Her delicate eyebrows were filled with heroic spirit, as if she was an almighty empress who ruled the eternal divine dynasty.
She just stood there calmly, looking at Tai Huntian with a cold expression, which made the supreme leader of the largest sect in the world of immortals couldn't help but tremble his eyelids.
"My dear disciple, you are here really fast!"
After a long time, Tai Huntian forced a smile from the corner of his mouth and sighed softly.
"Haha, it turns out to be just an incarnation... Well, being able to destroy one of your incarnations is not bad at all. At least it will delay your cultivation for 7,000 years."
Linglong Immortal Venerable's expression remained unchanged, she raised her eyebrows slightly and saw through Taihuntian's true strength.
It turned out that Tai Huntian had not used his real body when he came to check this time, but instead used the incarnation that he had condensed after seven thousand years of cultivation.
Seven thousand years of cultivation is certainly not an exaggeration for a Realm King cultivator with a lifespan of hundreds of thousands of years.
However, it was enough to deter most cultivators at the sixth level of immortality, or even make them flee in panic.
The seven thousand years of practice of a Realm King Realm powerhouse is far beyond the reach of cultivators below this realm, even if we only consider the sheer throughput of spiritual energy.
Coupled with his own understanding of the laws, it is enough to suppress any existence below the realm of King of Realm.
"The longer you live, the more you fear death, and the more cautious you become."
Tai Huntian seemed not to hear the sarcasm in Linglong Immortal Venerable's words. Instead, he nodded very seriously.
"Linglong disciple, why don't you tell me honestly, are you related to the expert who secretly targeted my Taiyi Sect?"
In his opinion, no one would do anything that would be harmful to themselves.
The person behind a behemoth like Taiyi Sect would definitely not offend it to death for no reason. It is obvious that he has some hidden purpose.
We can even not rule out the possibility that he was instructed by someone else.
"Oh? I was wondering how a cowardly old man like you could suddenly become so bold that you dared to step out of Taiyi Sect and come to this overseas land. It turns out that someone is looking for trouble... In this case, I really admire this fellow. Perhaps we can cooperate in the future."
Immortal Linglong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was able to glimpse a lot of information from Tai Huntian's words.
"Forget it, let's stop here and reminisce about the past. I will accept your avatar today as a way to get back some of the interest on Weibo."
The moment she finished speaking, she gently waved her slender hand, and the invisible power of the law immediately turned into a tide, slowly sweeping towards Taihuntian.
To the naked eye, the speed of this attack was not fast at all, but with Ether Huntian's strength, it was still unavoidable, and he couldn't even muster the desire to dodge.
Feeling this unpredictable power, Tai Huntian's expression finally became completely solemn. He frowned and said in surprise: "Linglong disciple, you are indeed a natural talent. Your cultivation has improved even more!"
However, before he could utter the next words, the unpredictable power of the law had already transformed into divine aura all over the sky, completely engulfing his entire body.
When the light faded, Tai Huntian's clone was completely wiped out, leaving no trace.
"Even Taihuntian takes this opponent seriously. It seems that this guy who is stirring up trouble in secret is not a simple person."
Immortal Linglong waved his hand to disperse all his magic power, and a hint of curiosity gradually rose in his noble eyes.
Then, she gently pinched the five fingers of her right hand, and energy ripples appeared and disappeared between her palms, obviously she was making some kind of calculations.
However, after a long time, nothing was found.
"Even I can't figure it out. No wonder that old guy Tai Huntian would send out an avatar for the first time... Interesting, it turns out that troubled times are coming. It's time for the Xuanhuang World to gather the winds and clouds of all the worlds again."
Although Linglong Immortal Venerable is extremely confident in his own strength, he also knows that there is always someone better than you, and he does not worry about not being able to figure out the identity of the person behind the scenes.
After a slight sigh, the figure disappeared from the spot, but he was planning to make more countermeasures for this sudden change.
