312 The Ancient Immortal
In truth, even Lord Cultivator Yuanyu and the other Incarnation stage cultivators didn’t know how the devil’s intent that had wreaked havoc throughout the Cave Lake Realm had disappeared. To be precise, other than the five “hardworking experts,” no one else knew!
They only knew that after the collapse of the Shenhua Sect, which was the third year after Fang Jinyu was devoured by the other realms, two extremely powerful pressures suddenly erupted and instantly filled the entire realm.
The two auras were extremely strange. They could surpass the Incarnation stage at any time and reach the Immortal Ascension stage. However, the two people who fought had suppressed their cultivation to the Incarnation stage in tacit understanding.
What was even stranger was that the entire Dong Hu Realm trembled when the two of them fought.
Fortunately, the battle between the two didn’t last long. In a very short time, the victor was determined. To be precise, they died together.
It was because the two of them had disappeared.
Later, the five “hardworking experts” joined forces to investigate.
When they returned, the five of them didn’t talk about what had happened, but they did talk about the origin of the devil’s intent infection.
Although the cultivators of the Zhudao Sect were bewitched by the devil’s intent and caused a flaw in the seal, in reality, there was an existence from the outer realm that secretly triggered the sealed devil’s intent.
Originally, the existence from the outer realm was prepared to release all the devil’s intent sealed in the Cave Lake Realm. However, for some unknown reason, when the devil’s intent from the Zhudao Sect successfully broke out, the rest of the devil’s intent remained sealed and couldn’t escape.
Therefore, the devil’s intent that came out of the Zhudao Sect suddenly appeared to be weak.
In order not to be sealed and suppressed again, the devil’s intent that had escaped might as well transform into the world and infect the cultivators of the entire realm.
It was the origin of the devil’s intent invasion tribulation!
“Junior brother, although Senior Brother Xia didn’t say anything before he left, he left something behind. He said that he would seal the truth in it. When my cultivation reaches the required level, I will be able to find out what happened back then.” As Lord Cultivator Yuanyu spoke, she took an item and placed it in front of Fang Jinyu.
It was a jade slip with an extremely powerful restriction spell on it, preventing anyone from prying.
However, after Fang Jinyu observed it for a while, he realized that the only way to break the restriction on the jade slip wasn’t to break through a certain cultivation level.
It was because the restrictive spell on the jade slip was the immortal imprisoning forbidden technique!
The person who set up the restrictive spell had only cultivated the immortal imprisoning forbidden technique to minor success, which gave Fang Jinyu a chance.
After all, Fang Jinyu had already mastered the immortal imprisoning forbidden technique.
Thus, when Fang Jinyu picked up the jade slip, he had already silently opened a gap in the restriction spell on it. However, the gap only allowed divine consciousness to enter.
However, divine sense wouldn’t sense anything.
Fang Jinyu’s divine consciousness immediately surged in, and then he saw an extremely surprised figure.
Xia Yi!
However, it wasn’t a soul fragment of “Master Xia,” nor was it a wisp of “Master Xia’s” divine consciousness. It was just a cultivation validation mark from Xia Yi.
Using the special nature of the cultivation validation path, Xia Yi recorded the words he wanted to say.
This method of preservation could not only preserve Xia Yi’s words for ten thousand years but even if the jade slip was accidentally damaged, the cultivation validation mark inside wouldn’t be damaged at all.
“Junior Sister, I’m very surprised that you can cultivate to the middle stage of the Incarnation stage. However, since you’ve cultivated to such a level, I can tell you what happened back then.”
When Fang Jinyu’s divine consciousness appeared, it was as if a switch had been activated. Xia Yi’s figure immediately started talking.
“You might not believe it, but the reason why your in-name disciple, Han Feiyu, encountered the collapse of the void wasn’t an accident. It was because he destroyed the plan of an immortal Almighty, so he was punished by crossing worlds.”
“However, it was also because of that immortal Almighty’s actions that an existence in the immortal realm sensed that one of her enemies had reincarnated into the Cave Lake Realm. Hence, she severed her cultivation and fell into the Cave Lake Realm from the immortal realm to pursue him.”
“That’s why there was an explosion and a great battle that spread throughout the entire realm. As for the devil’s intent, it was wiped away by the two of them because it tried to infect them.”
“Junior Sister, you can tell the others what I said. However, I hope that you will be the only listener to my following words, so don’t tell anyone else.”
“Junior Sister, although the immortal realm has cut off its connection with the lower realm, it’s not completely cut off. There was a small path called the Ancient Immortal’s Path that connected the immortal realm and the lower realm. The path of the Ancient Immortal’s Path would remain in the Cave Lake Realm for the next 10,000 years. Therefore, why don’t you try this opportunity? As long as you can step on this small path that leads directly to the immortal realm, there’s a 70% to 80% chance that you will successfully reach the immortal realm.”
“In the immortal realm, as long as you join a faction, you can receive an Incarnation aptitude transformation method and transform from using the mini-perfection incarnation technique to the leaping incarnation technique.”
“At that time, you’ll have a slim chance of breaking through the Immortal Ascension stage.”
At this point, Xia Yi’s figure stopped talking. It seemed that was all he had recorded.
Fang Jinyu returned the jade slip and instantly repaired the gap in the restrictive spell. Xia Yi wanted Lord Cultivator Yuanyu to know about it only when she became a middle-stage Incarnation cultivator. It meant that the Ancient Immortal’s Path was dangerous. If Lord Cultivator Yuanyu, who was only an early-stage Incarnation cultivator, went, there was a high chance that she would die.
Since Fang Jinyu owed Xia Yi a favor and knew the truth, it was better to follow his plan.
Fang Jinyu said, “Thank you, Senior Sister. This jade slip must have been specially left for you by Senior Brother Xia. The others won’t be able to open even if their cultivation base has reached a certain level.”
The dead were the most important, so Fang Jinyu didn’t have any psychological barriers when he called out “Senior Brother Xia.”
Lord Cultivator Yuanyu was instantly overjoyed when she heard it.
Of the Incarnation stage cultivators in the Shenhua Sect, only “Han Feiyu” was someone she couldn’t see through. She couldn’t even sense him, so Lord Cultivator Yuanyu was very convinced by Fang Jinyu’s words.
Lord Cultivator Yuanyu had encountered other cultivators who used the leaping incarnation technique before, but they weren’t as strong as Fang Jinyu. Therefore, she believed that “Han Feiyu’s” cultivation base had long since reached rank 3 or rank 4 in the Incarnation stage!
Lord Cultivator Yuanyu wasn’t the only one who thought so. Qi Hesheng and the other two also thought so. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been so sincere when they offered the benefits.
Fang Jinyu stood up and bade farewell. He returned to the Deva Palace and continued to read through the records and ancient books. When he was done reading them all, he called over a disciple of the Shenhua Sect.
“Disciple Chen Fayi greets Lord Cultivator Han!” They were Core Formation stage cultivators and alchemists from the Shenhua Sect, and they immediately bowed to pay their respects as soon as they entered.
Fang Jinyu asked, “There’s no need to be so polite. You are the most famous alchemist in the northern and southern regions of the Cave Lake Realm, so you should be very knowledgeable. Have you ever heard of a female cultivator called Lin Xianer?” He had read through all the books, especially the records of what had happened in the Cave Lake Realm in the past hundred years. There were also many outstanding cultivators.
However, Lin Xianer’s name wasn’t mentioned at all.
It is very abnormal!
After all, Fang Jinyu left the Cave Lake Realm back then because he killed the eldest young master of the Qi family, causing Lin Xianer’s plans to be messed up.
Before this, Fang Jinyu wasn’t sure about it. However, after reading Xia Yi’s message, he was certain.
Otherwise, was it necessary to give him a cross-realm attack?
Yes, it was a cross-realm attack, not a “cross-realm punishment.”
