Chapter 534: Chapter 509 Immortal Sixth Layer
"Thunder, Fire, Wind Trinity Elixir, I have only about ten thousand of them, all yours,"
Lu Lingxuan was very generous. After fumbling around, she pulled out a Sumi Mustard Seed Bag and handed it to Lu Yan, adding, "You saved my life, a debt greater than heaven itself. These elixirs are nothing in comparison, no need to pay me back."
Lu Yan was secretly impressed. Truly a descendant of the Alliance Hierarch, her wealth was substantial, handing out tens of thousands of elixirs just like that.
Lu Yan certainly wasn’t shy in accepting them. He pocketed the elixirs, then moved to the side and sat down cross-legged. With a wave of his hand, the elixirs flew out.
His Primordial Spirit flew out, opened its mouth, and in a moment, it devoured a large number of the elixirs, beginning to refine them.
After creating the law, Lu Yan’s cultivation level skyrocketed and his soul was even more awakened. Now, the speed at which he refined elixirs was many times faster than before.
Several hundred elixirs were consumed, and in no long time, they were refined by him, transforming into Immortal Power.
"After the Immortal Fifth Layer, indeed, the number of elixirs needed to break through is astonishing."
Days later, Lu Yan had refined thousands of elixirs and still saw no signs of a breakthrough, which made him feel quite emotional.
After the Immortal Fifth Layer, the number of elixirs required for improvement was far beyond what was needed before the Immortal Fourth Layer.
Half a month later.
After refining more than twenty thousand elixirs, Lu Yan had finally accumulated enough, and his internal Immortal Power was exceedingly vigorous.
Boom!
A roar erupted from within his body, like a volcanic eruption, and a strong aura rose up.
Through the rule tendrils, energy from the Magic River flowed crazily into his body, and both his physical form and Primordial Spirit began to transform once again.
This process didn’t last for long, and his aura gradually retracted, calm as an ancient well.
He reached the Immortal Sixth Layer.
"Saint Soldier’s Formula, help me break through."
With a thought from Lu Yan, he quietly gave the Dao Book a few drops of Three-eyed Tiger Emperor’s Blood.
The Saint Soldier’s Formula, previously stalled at the eighth layer’s limit due to his cultivation level.
Now, with Lu Yan’s breakthrough in cultivation level, the Saint Soldier’s Formula could naturally progress further.
Soon, the Saint Soldier’s Formula also broke through smoothly, stepping into the ninth layer.
"As the Saint Soldier’s Formula advances, the energy needed is becoming increasingly shocking. With a little over twenty drops of Three-eyed Tiger Emperor’s Blood left, I wonder if it will help the Saint Soldier’s Formula break through to the tenth layer."
Lu Yan pondered.
According to the rules of Saint Soldier’s Formula, the tenth layer should be comparable to the Tao Realm.
It’s a significant barrier, with a vast difference, and the energy consumed should also be astonishingly high.
"We can leave now."
Lu Yan stood up and said.
Lu Lingxuan’s eyes were clear, staring at Lu Yan with a look of surprise.
She felt that Lu Yan’s strength had increased significantly.
It wasn’t just a rise in cultivation level, but something else.
"Not long ago, he was only at the Immortal Fourth Layer. How could he possibly break through to the Immortal Sixth Layer in such a short time?"
Lu Lingxuan was utterly baffled.
Going from the Immortal Fourth Layer to the Immortal Fifth Layer was understandable; perhaps Lu Yan had already reached the peak of the Immortal Fourth Layer, accumulated some time, and with the right opportunity, he would naturally breakthrough.
But that would have meant only just breaking into the Immortal Fifth Layer.
The gap between the Immortal Fifth Layer and the Immortal Sixth Layer was also immense, and even if elixirs were plentiful, it would still require a significant period of accumulation. It seemed impossible to break through in such a short time.
Lu Yan, this newcomer from the Wild Ocean, became shrouded in a layer of mystery in her heart.
"I wonder if Sword Saint Situ and the others are still waiting outside."
Lu Lingxuan shook her head slightly, casting aside her distractions.
"Let’s try and we’ll know."
After Lu Yan finished speaking, he called out his Martial Arts Avatar and passed through the statue to go outside.
The outside was empty, not a single figure in sight.
The Martial Arts Avatar searched the surroundings again and still didn’t find anyone.
"It seems like Sword Saint Situ and the others have left, we can go now."
Lu Yan said.
The two of them passed through the statue and came outside.
"Where is the True Beast King?"
Lu Yan asked.
"Head west from here, let’s go."
Lu Lingxuan led the way.
The two of them headed west.
Two days later, they arrived at an extremely majestic mountain peak.
The entire mountain peak was devoid of any creatures, not even the sound of insects could be heard, utterly silent with a fearsome oppressive force permeating through the woods.
This was the territory of the King of True Beasts. No other creatures dared to linger.
The two concealed their auras and quietly ascended to the mountain top.
The mountain top was flat. A colossal creature lay there, lazily basking in the breeze.
It was a blue giant beast, lying there, its body stretching over twenty meters.
It was covered in blue scales, with a head like a dragon and a body like a lion, yet it had three tails.
The King of True Beasts.
"Xiao Yin, go and subdue it."
Lu Yan uttered quietly, waving his hand. The Innate Magic Seal Fragment flew out, its surface inscribed with mysterious runes and a halo of light spread out, enveloping the King of True Beasts within.
Roar!
The King of True Beasts immediately sensed it and let out a violent roar, rising to its feet and staring at Xiao Yin as its body shone with blue light and its scales emitted a cold luster.
It was struggling, resisting Xiao Yin, seemingly unwilling to submit.
"The Tao Magic Seal given to you was my gift, and yet you dare to resist, seeking death?"
Xiao Yin rebuked, its inscriptions growing ever clearer and the halo shining even brighter.
Above the spine of the King of True Beasts, a Tao Magic Seal appeared, resonating with Xiao Yin.
Roar, roar...
The King of True Beasts roared incessantly, unwilling to submit, still resisting, still struggling...
But the Tao Magic Seal on his body glowed, strands of patterns like thread extended out, covering the entire body of the King of True Beasts.
The body of the King of True Beasts trembled slightly, and as time passed, the trembling grew more and more intense, until finally, the King of True Beasts knelt down, prostrating on the ground.
"Done."
The voice of Xiao Yin transmitted out, and with a whoosh, it returned above Lu Yan’s head.
The King of True Beasts stood up, standing respectfully to the side.
"Is this an Innate Magic Seal Fragment? It’s truly miraculous."
Lu Lingxuan curiously sized up Xiao Yin.
"Xiao Yin, are there any other powerful True Beasts nearby? If so, let’s subjugate them all."
Lu Yan asked.
Xiao Yin communicated with the King of True Beasts for a moment.
Roar!
The King of True Beasts immediately let out a long howl, which traveled far and wide.
A moment later.
The ground thundered, and a large group of True Beasts came galloping, arriving at the summit.
There were at least a hundred of them.
All were True Beasts above the Immortal Fifth Layer.
Among them, there were five at the Immortal Ninth Layer.
However, only one possessed a Tao Magic Seal; the other four did not.
For the True Beasts of other realms, it was the same, only a very few possessed the Tao Magic Seal.
But Lu Yan’s eyes gleamed with excitement.
How marvelous, by controlling the King of True Beasts, didn’t that mean he controlled all the True Beasts within the Innate Magic Realm?
It didn’t matter whether they had Tao Magic Seals or not.
Nevertheless, to be on the safe side, Lu Yan still had Xiao Yin take action to control the True Beasts that had Tao Magic Seals.
"King of True Beasts, have your subordinates spread out and search for the traces of Sword Saint Situ and Shen Yueren and the others. Here are their portraits."
Lu Yan waved his hand, and the power of Immortality traced out portraits in the air.
This kind of skill was effortless for beings of the Immortal Realm.
The King of True Beasts looked at Xiao Yin, then at Lu Yan, and finally nodded, ordering all the True Beasts to memorize these portraits, then scattered, rushing in all directions.
"Let’s go, we’ll search other places. Let’s recruit a few more Immortal Ninth Layer True Beasts to increase our chances."
Lu Yan said.
With the power he currently possessed, contending against Sword Saint Situ and Shen Yueren was not a problem. But trying to leave them behind was still not enough.
They set off right away.
With the King of True Beasts leading the way, they quickly found several powerful True Beasts, subjugated them, and then dispersed them to search for the whereabouts of Sword Saint Situ and the others.
Three days later.
"There’s news. In the north, we’ve found the person you’re looking for."
The King of True Beasts spoke up.
"Good, let’s go."
Lu Yan’s spirit was stirred, and they set off immediately, heading north.
In the north, amidst a stretch of mountains.
Thud!
Sword Saint Situ swung his sword, decapitating a young man.
Shen Yueren stepped forward, his hand reaching out into thin air to grab, exploding the head of a young man, including the Primordial Spirit, which also burst apart, vanishing into dust and smoke.
Then, their gazes turned to a young man in a blue robe, covered in blood.
Around them, seven or eight bodies were already lying in disarray.
These were all from the Dragon Alliance.
"I’ll fight you to the end."
The blood-soaked young man in the blue robe, with the cultivation level of the Immortal Ninth Layer, let out a long howl, burning his power of Immortality, holding a long spear, becoming one with it, and unleashed the strongest strike of his life.
This thrust was directed at Shen Yueren.
However, with only two Organ Miracles, his strength was far less than that of Shen Yueren.
Shen Yueren turned his fingers into a sword, thrusting forward, with three laws swirling around, piercing the tip of the spear.
With a loud boom, the blue-robed young man was sent flying backward, the spear flying out of his hand.
Whoosh!
Like a specter, Shen Yueren flashed, arriving in front of the blue-robed young man, and with a grab of his large hand, the young man’s head exploded like a watermelon, and his Primordial Spirit ended up in Shen Yueren’s hand.
"Shen Yueren, you will eventually fall at the hands of the Tianjiao of my Dragon Alliance..."
The blue-robed young man roared angrily.
"Quiet."
Shen Yueren clenched his hand, crushing the blue-robed young man’s Primordial Spirit.
"Hmph, when the Immortal army of my Divine Clan arrives, the Dragon Alliance members in the Innate Magic Realm will be wiped out."
Shen Yueren said coldly.
These were already the third Dragon Alliance crew they had killed in these days.
"Shen Yueren, when will the Immortal army of your Divine Clan come?" Sword Saint Situ asked.
"The Immortal army is too large to be mobilized openly; otherwise, it would be easy for the Dragon Alliance to detect. If they make preparations in advance, or retreat beforehand, then we would not be able to wipe them out all at once."
"Therefore, they are coming dispersed and undercover, which takes some time. I estimate that in at most half a month, they will be able to congregate in the Innate Magic Realm."
Shen Yueren said.
"Good, when the time comes, we will strike together and uproot the power of the Dragon Alliance in the Innate Magic Realm in one fell swoop."
Sword Saint Situ’s eyes flashed with a murderous intent.
They did not realize that in the distant dirt, a pair of eyes was watching them.
Then, the eyes sunk into the soil and disappeared, and moments later, a slender grey snake emerged from the ground hundreds of meters away and slithered off.
