Chapter 399 - 399 398 Heading to Jinxia Cave

399: Chapter 398: Heading to Jinxia Cave 399: Chapter 398: Heading to Jinxia Cave Above the heavenly vault, amidst the void.

Guang Chengzi’s Daluo golden light dimmed, and South Sea Guanyin’s face appeared grim, but as their eyes met, they both saw the deep worry in each other’s gaze.

They had been chasing Ye Xuan for a hundred years, yet he had still managed to escape, which greatly concerned both of them.

Today, Ye Xuan had fled, and if he were to step into Daluo tomorrow, he would definitely seek vengeance against them.

The thought of Ye Xuan achieving the terrifying state of Daluo filled their eyes with a grave hue.

“Allowing this child to escape today may lead to endless troubles in the future,” sighed Guang Chengzi.

“Elder brother, please accompany me back to Lingshan to request Buddha’s Golden Bowl.

With it, we can definitely locate Ye Xuan’s position and exterminate him,” South Sea Guanyin spoke somberly.

“Good!”

The two rode a golden cloud directly toward the Western Continent.

Clearly, the only way to find Ye Xuan now was indeed the Buddha’s Golden Bowl, which showed their determined resolution to kill Ye Xuan.

The sky was high, the clouds light, and mist swirled around.

Space rippled, creating waves, and Ye Xuan’s figure materialized.

Once he had confirmed that the two Daluos had truly departed, he couldn’t help but chuckle coldly, a chilling murderous intent flashing across his eyes.

For a hundred years, it seemed Ye Xuan had been fleeing from the two Daluos, but it had also allowed him to recover from his injuries.

His current level of cultivation was only at the early stage of Luotian Golden Immortal, with no progress whatsoever.

Although he was merely at the early stage of Luotian Golden Immortal, with his injuries recovered and the Reverse Immortal Array in hand, even if he couldn’t overpower the joint efforts of the two Daluos, he could still hold his ground.

His reasons for fleeing were also straightforward: he was alone, and if he genuinely engaged in a great battle with the two, and if the Chan Sect’s Daluos came to aid, it would inevitably lead him into a desperate situation.

“Thinking of using Buddha’s Golden Bowl to kill me?”

Ye Xuan smirked coldly, a sinister light flickering in his eyes, his venomous and ruthless gaze causing an immense tremor in anyone who looked at him.

Hum!

With a single step, using the Floating Light Shadow technique, Ye Xuan suddenly vanished, headed toward Jade Spring Mountain’s Golden Radiance Cave, the dwelling place of Yu Ding.

Ye Xuan’s plan was simple.

Since he was already at odds with the Chan Sect, he had nothing to hold back.

Moreover, his current cultivation was merely at the early stage of Luotian Golden Immortal, which was his major problem.

As the saying goes, pick the soft persimmons to squeeze.

Among the Ancient Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect, only Yu Ding had the weakest cultivation.

Furthermore, in a battle three hundred years ago, Yu Ding had been severely injured by him and was on the brink of death.

These three hundred years must have been spent in closed-door healing, and this was precisely the opportunity for Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan was vengeful and never rose early for nothing—his enmity with Yu Ding was a matter of life and death.

Just the prospect of Yu Ding’s Daluo Golden Immortal cultivation was tempting for Ye Xuan.

The battle in the Heavenly Court had made it clear to Ye Xuan that external powers were ultimately just that; only personal strength was fundamental.

He wasn’t devoid of methods to rapidly enhance his cultivation; however, ever since his return from the Human World, he had been constantly engaged in battles.

Even if he wanted to devour the Dao Fruit of others to enhance his cultivation, he never had the chance.

The key issue was that Ye Xuan, as a Luotian Golden Immortal, could only devour those of the same level to boost his cultivation.

The cultivation of lower-level immortals, even if devoured, would do little more than drop in the bucket to his own.

In fact, when he killed Yang Jian back in the day, he could have consumed Yang Jian’s cultivation.

However, with a congregation of immortals at hand, if he had done so, he would surely have become a target.

This had restrained him from taking such action.

But now things were different.

He had already broken ties with the Jade Emperor and was at daggers drawn with the Chan Sect, even regarded as an enemy by the Western Lingshan.

This left him without any reservations.

Ye Xuan was not particularly concerned about the Cultivation of a Luotian Golden Immortal, for he knew that even if he devoured the Cultivation Dao Fruit of his peers, stepping into the realm of a Daluo Golden Immortal would still be an extremely lengthy process.

Ye Xuan was very anxious and had no time to follow the conventional path of cultivation.

Now, he could only think of two methods to swiftly advance to Daluo.

First, consume a Peach that has matured for nine thousand years, or Zhen Yuan’s Ginsengfruit, or the Nine Revolutions Golden Pill from the Doushuai Temple.

Second, use the Tribulation Immortal Skill to devour the Cultivation and Dao Fruit of a Daluo Golden Immortal.

The first option was not even worth considering, as the current Ye Xuan simply lacked the capability to undertake it; however, the second method, though extremely difficult, gave Ye Xuan a glimmer of hope.

Yu Ding the Immortal!

Yes, it was Yu Ding the Immortal.

Among the Ancient Twelve Golden Immortals, he had the weakest cultivation and was currently healing in seclusion.

Furthermore, being alone in the Golden Dawn Cave made him the perfect target for Ye Xuan to devour.

…

Jade Spring Mountain, Golden Dawn Cave.

Surrounded by mountains, with Immortal Light steaming around and a Mountain Protection Array guarding in all directions, the mountain was indeed a Cave Heaven Blessed Land full of flying birds and spiritual beasts.

Inside the Golden Dawn Cave, there was a pool of Immortal Spring, with Immortal Light steaming—an originally natural treasure formed when Heaven and Earth first opened, capable of reshaping one’s body and refining one’s Immortal power, significantly benefiting any Immortal.

Yu Ding the Immortal was meditating in the middle of the Immortal Spring.

His hair was silver white, his complexion slightly flushed, as he continuously absorbed the Immortal power from the spring through his Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill to repair his body and Primordial Spirit.

Three hundred years earlier, Ye Xuan had allowed the Heavenly Demon to possess him, inflicting unimaginable severe injuries.

After three hundred years of healing, his body had become flawless like glaze, though his Primordial Spirit still appeared slightly weak due to the tenacious nature of the Heavenly Demon Power, which would require another ten years to fully expel.

With a breath, a turbid aura streamed out from Yu Ding the Immortal’s mouth and nose, followed by a dull sound in the void.

At that moment, Yu Ding the Immortal slowly opened his eyes.

“What a peculiar Heavenly Demon Power.

Without the profound mysteries of the Eight-Nine Mysterious Skill, this Heavenly Demon Power would have surely corroded my Primordial Spirit,” Yu Ding the Immortal murmured deeply.

“Fortunately, this Ye Xuan will also be backfired by the Heavenly Demon Power, suffering a fate of death and Dao extinction.”

Yu Ding the Immortal rose from the Immortal Spring, a trace of relief flashing in his eyes.

However, when he caught sight of the Three-pointed Two-bladed Saber hanging from the cliff in the stone cave, a flash of sorrow glimmered in his eyes.

“My disciple, though you were scattered to death by that Ye Xuan, do not be afraid.

Your master will surely plead with Yuanshi, our Master, to gather your scattered soul and let you be reborn with your True Spirit,” Yu Ding the Immortal murmured bitterly.

However, thinking about the method to gather the True Spirit, he didn’t feel so confident.

After all, if an Immortal’s soul was scattered to death, reassembling that soul would need Saintly methods.

This was essentially an act against Heaven, and even Saints could not casually use it.

Even though Yuanshi Tianzun was one of The Three Pure Ones, it was unlikely he would commit such a celestial act merely for Yang Jian.

“Huh?”

“Who is this evil creature daring to spy on me?”

Initially sunk in grief, Yu Ding the Immortal was nevertheless still a Daluo Golden Immortal, with his Divine Sense covering the entire Jade Spring Mountain.

Instantly, he sensed a Demon secretly peering at him from outside the Golden Dawn Cave.
