Cultivation: I have an omnipotent land

Chapter 63 Purple Dream Sovereign

Just as Xiao Ming was lamenting the possible demise of Yan Yuxue, the ghosts outside suddenly became restless.

A ghostly figure rode a jade-white flying sword, flying straight towards the radiant flying boat. The shield that prevented ghosts from getting close was easily passed through by her.

When the ghostly creature landed on the deck in front of him, Xiao Ming's expression changed, and he immediately took out a thunder magic talisman.

"Senior Brother Xiao, don't panic, it's me!" A familiar female voice came from the ghostly figure.

The next moment, the dense ghostly aura dissipated, revealing a girl in green. She was holding a small black bead in her hand, and the ghostly power that enveloped her originated from this bead.

"Junior Sister Yan, you're still alive." Xiao Ming was somewhat surprised.

"I am truly flattered that Senior Brother Xiao has taken such a liking to me," Yan Yuxue said with a calm smile.

Compared to last time, she was no different, except that her cultivation level had actually crossed the bottleneck from the mid-stage to the late stage of Qi Refining, and she was now at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

It seems that after they separated, this woman not only escaped the invasion of the myriad ghosts, but also successfully encountered some kind of opportunity, truly blessed with great fortune.

"This is a Yin Ghost Bead, which can conceal the aura of the living. No wonder those ghosts didn't attack you." Duanmu Yan walked over and recognized the origin of the bead in Yan Yuxue's hand at a glance.

"Junior Yan Yuxue greets Elder Duanmu." Yan Yuxue quickly bowed.

"Your surname is Yan. You're from the Yan family, aren't you? What's your relationship with Yan Yuntao?"

"He was my great-grandfather."

Duanmu Yan nodded, then changed the subject: "Take off your storage bag."

Although they are descendants of deceased friends, all the necessary procedures must be followed.

Yan Yuxue was taken aback at first, then realized what was happening and took the initiative to open the storage bag and empty its contents.

Duanmu Yan's gaze swept over the items, and he immediately put away some spiritual herbs and plants. Then, he used his divine sense to scan the items back and forth to ensure that nothing was missed.

Throughout this process, Yan Yuxue simply stood with her head down, her hands placed in front of her, one hand unconsciously stroking a jade bracelet. Although her expression remained unchanged on the surface, she was actually extremely nervous inside.

"Old monster, are you there?"

"Little girl, speak more politely. You should address me as Zi Meng Yuan Jun." A languid and charming female voice rang out from within my sea of ​​consciousness.

Ignoring the dissatisfaction in the other party's tone, Yan Yuxue continued to press, "Won't they discover the trickery in this bracelet? This is a Core Formation cultivator."

The jade bracelet she was wearing at that moment looked ordinary, but it contained a secret. It not only held all the wealth of a Corpse Soul Sect elder after his death, but also the remains of an old monster who had lived for countless years and was still thrashing around as a ghost after his death.

"What's so great about Core Formation? Five hundred years ago, when I roamed the Southern Frontier, this little Core Formation cultivator hadn't even been born yet. How dare he discover my existence?" the woman said disdainfully.

"Zi Meng Yuan Jun, huh?" Yan Yuxue tried hard to recall the cultivation stories she had read at home before. It seemed that she had mentioned Zi Meng Yuan Jun in a book. She was a famous Nascent Soul demon in the Southern Frontier five hundred years ago, but she disappeared suddenly for some unknown reason.

I never expected to run into her here; I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse.

"Little girl, don't be so wary. I am a demon, and you are a human. Humans and demons are different, and I cannot possess you," the woman said with a smile.

"And if it weren't for me, you would have been killed by those Core Formation cultivators from the Corpse Soul Sect long ago."

"Hmph, in that case I should thank you."

"No need for thanks. I'm keeping you around because you're useful. We can cooperate. With my help in your cultivation, I guarantee your progress will be rapid. In return, you'll need to do some things for me..."

While the two were communicating telepathically, Duanmu Yan had already checked the contents of the storage bag, and as expected, there was nothing unusual about the jade bracelet on Yan Yuxue's wrist.

With a wave of his hand, he returned all these items to his storage bag and gave them back to Yan Yuxue.

"Well done. From today onwards, you are an inner disciple. Yan Yuntao is also a man of importance. I hope you will cultivate diligently and not tarnish his reputation in the future."

"I will definitely cultivate diligently and live up to the name of the Yan family," Yan Yuxue said with a firm gaze.

In the time that followed, as the Radiant Flying Boat sailed out of the secret realm, no more survivors appeared.

Returning to the entrance of Eagle Gorge, the surviving Qi Refining disciples all felt as if they had been transported to another world.

At this moment, Duanmu Yan also left the flying boat with several Foundation Establishment deacons. He said, "The matter here is not yet resolved. The people I have named will stay. Zong Zheng Guang, you take the rest of the people back to the sect."

"Your disciple obeys!" Zongzheng Guang replied respectfully.

The Radiant Flying Boat gradually accelerated, heading towards the outside of Eagle Gorge. Behind the flying boat, a huge sealing array could be seen in the direction of the entrance to the secret realm.

"These humans are quite clever; they haven't been blinded by greed. This Cangwu Mountain is not something they can lay their hands on," Zi Meng Yuanjun's languid voice echoed in Yan Yuxue's mind.

"Are even Core Formation cultivators unable to enter Cangwu Mountain?" Yan Yuxue asked curiously.

"What about Core Formation cultivators? Let's have Nascent Soul old monsters do it, of course, provided they have the right opportunity. If not... hehe." Zi Meng Yuanjun just sneered, her tone carrying a hint of self-mockery.

Reflecting on her experiences, Zi Meng Yuan Jun felt anger, but even more so, helplessness.

This Cangwu Mountain, after all, is still human territory.

······

Three days later, Xiao Ming, who was cultivating, suddenly heard cheers. It seemed that the Gu Ling Sect had arrived.

He immediately ended his cultivation and, like the other Qi Refining cultivators, went to the bow of the ship.

In the distance, clouds and mist swirl around, and a series of mountains gradually come into view, the highest of which has five peaks, shaped like the five fingers of a person.

The morning mist rises between the five peaks, and pavilions and towers can be vaguely seen among the mountains.

Then, streaks of light from cultivators moved among the magnificent golden structures, creating a scene reminiscent of immortals.

As everyone curiously observed the Gu Ling Sect, a bell suddenly rang out from the highest peak, ringing three times.

Immediately, countless cultivators arrived on their swords and stopped in front of the Radiant Cloud Flying Boat. Leading them was an old man with white hair and a youthful face, whose appearance was dignified. Upon closer inspection, he bore a resemblance to Zong Zhengguang.

"I am Zong Zhengming, the sect leader of the Gu Ling Sect. Welcome all new disciples!"

"Greetings, Senior Brother Sect Leader!"

"Greetings, Master Uncle!"

Zong Zhengguang flew out and led a group of Qi Refining disciples to bow to the sect leader.

Sect Leader Zong stroked his beard, smiled, and nodded to his younger brother.

"Elder Duanmu has sent back the message, so I am aware of the matter. Disciples, you have worked hard. Please follow me into the main hall."
