Crafting an Immortal Race with Daily Hexagrams

Chapter 358: Chapter 201: People of the Underworld

The group from Chu Yuanfeng quickly looked towards the direction of Luoxia Mountain, seeing the sky filled with Cyan Lotuses in the void, each starting to wither and dissipate, eventually transforming into a faint golden light gathering somewhere.

In just a few breaths of time, the Cyan Lotuses covering the sky completely disappeared, leaving only a mysterious golden droplet suspended in the void.

After the golden droplet absorbed the golden light from the Cyan Lotuses, it emitted an eternal and immortal aura, slowly descending toward Luoxia Mountain.

”Oh no!”

Seeing the golden droplet falling towards the mountain gate of Luoxia Mountain, Chu Yuanfeng suddenly reacted, muttering in shock.

Shen Wen’an looked at him, puzzled.

Although he didn’t understand the exact process of a cultivator breaking through to the Golden Core, the current situation seemed to prove that Jiang Xiuqi in Luoxia Mountain was about to successfully break through, stepping into the Golden Core Dao.

Chu Yuanfeng spoke in a deep voice, ”When Senior Sister Lingshan broke through to the Sword Immortal Realm years ago, it was Chu, along with several senior brothers, who were at her side.”

”When Senior Sister achieved Sword Immortal, within the radius...”

Before he could finish speaking, another phenomenon suddenly appeared in the distant Luoxia Mountain!

The Mountain Protection Array that covered the entire sky above Luoxia Mountain suddenly began to tremble violently.

In just a few breaths, the Mountain Protection Array abruptly disintegrated!

The spiritual light points from the array were all drawn into a terrifying suction into the cave somewhere in Luoxia Mountain.

Furthermore, the group clearly felt a slight tremor in the mountain beneath their feet.

Visibly, with the mountain gate of Luoxia Mountain as the center, within a radius of several hundred miles, the ancient towering trees and vegetation seemed to be drained of vitality, slowly withering and decaying!

In just over ten breaths, the originally lush and picturesque Luoxia Mountain turned into a desolate mountain.

Trees fell, vitality was lost.

”Ah!”

Seeing this, Chu Yuanfeng couldn’t help but let out a heavy sigh.

”I forgot about this matter and didn’t have time to remind our fellow daoists at Luoxia Mountain.”

”What was once a beautifully blessed land has been utterly devastated.”

Shen Wen’an and the others looked in amazement at everything around them.

”Senior Brother, this... this!”

Wu Yang looked around incredulously, finding it hard to imagine that just over ten breaths ago, this was a place capable of supporting an Immortal Sect.

”The earth vein Qi and vitality of all things have been absorbed by that elder in Luoxia Mountain.”

”Restoration would take hundreds of years at best.”

Upon hearing this, the group fell silent.

A cultivator breaking through to the Golden Core could instantly absorb the earth vein Qi and vitality of all things within several hundred miles.

This was too domineering!

Despite his astonishment, Shen Wen’an quietly looked towards the direction of Luoxia Mountain Sect.

The black-robed figure he saw earlier was likely from the Underworld, proving that Jiang Xiuqi’s breakthrough to the Golden Core had been targeted by the Underworld’s people.

But now... Jiang Xiuqi has devoured the earth vein Qi and vitality of all things within several hundred miles, forging his Golden Core. Why hasn’t the Underworld’s person taken action?

Could it be that they’ve left?

With suspicion in his heart, Shen Wen’an dared not release his Divine Sense to investigate further.

His sword embryo was damaged already from one attack, and if they haven’t left and strike again.

His lifebound sword embryo might be difficult to withstand.

It wasn’t long before they saw a stream of light flying in from the Luoxia Mountain Sect.

”Junior Brother, long time no see.”

It was Wei Qiuling who arrived.

Her figure landed atop the peak where the five were standing, smiling at Shen Wen’an.

The two were Dao Companions, their Divine Spirits intertwined through dual cultivation, understanding each other far better than mundane couples, and much closer.

After more than two years apart, upon reuniting, Wei Qiuling felt an unusual sense of emotion arise within her.

Three parts nervousness, three parts bitterness, three parts excitement, and one part inexplicable impulse.

In all her years as a Dao Companion, this was the first time she felt such complicated emotions.

Shen Wen’an nodded gently, then introduced, ”Brother Chu, fellow junior brothers, this is Luoxia Mountain’s leading disciple and my Dao Companion, Wei Qiuling.”

”Senior Sister, these are disciples of the Cyan Ruo Sword House, this is Brother Chu Yuanfeng, Brother Chu...”

With Shen Wen’an’s introduction, they exchanged greetings and courtesies.

”Fellow Daoist Wei, Luoxia Mountain’s elder... has successfully broken through, right?”

Chu Yuanfeng asked.

Wu Yang and the others looked over with anticipation.

Wei Qiuling nodded slightly, ”My thanks to Cyan Ruo Sword House and fellow daoists for your assistance, Master has likely already broken through successfully.”

”This isn’t the place to talk, Wen’an, please invite your fellow daoists to gather in Luoxia Mountain.”

Upon hearing this, Chu Yuanfeng laughed, waving his hand, ”Since the elder has successfully broken through, our task is considered complete.”

”Let’s return to report to the sect, and we can visit again when time permits.”

Luoxia Mountain has now birthed a powerful figure in the Golden Core Realm, which to Cyan Ruo Sword House, at least qualifies as a genuine ally.

Wei Qiuling nodded, ”Very well, Luoxia Mountain is rather chaotic due to Master’s breakthrough.”

”After everything is tidied up, Luoxia Mountain will formally invite fellow daoists to visit as guests.”

Chu Yuanfeng cupped his hands with a smile, ”So, Shen brother will stay, or...”

Shen Wen’an looked at Wei Qiuling beside him, cupping his hands towards Chu Yuanfeng, ”Please let Senior Sister Lingshan know that after our matters here are sorted, Wen’an shall pay her a visit.”

Chu Yuanfeng nodded.

”If that’s the case, then farewell.”
