Chapter 573: 178 Million Immortal Palace Daozi, Spiritual Body Reappears_2
Su Yu controlled his Flying Boat to hover on the outskirts of the various forces.
He glanced around, feeling a slight chill of fear in his heart.
The opening of an ancient ruin of the Immortal Palace had gathered at least a thousand elite disciples from various forces.
He watched and realized that the cultivation levels of these people were all at the Core Formation stage, with many in the mid to late stage. Quite a few had reached the ninth level of Core Formation.
As for the Nascent Soul Realm—
Other than the Nascent Soul Elder of the Immortal Palace, no Nascent Soul True Monarchs of other forces seemed to be present.
This was merely an ancient ruin meant for the training of elite disciples.
He waited for about half an hour.
The True Monarch Elder of the Immortal Palace with the Nascent Soul condensed his aura which filled the surroundings. His powerful dominance drew the attention of all present.
“The ruins here are known as the Cave Ruins, once a stronghold left by the ancient heaven immortals.”
“This time the ruins will remain open for a year.”
“Remember, you must leave the ruins within a year. Otherwise, once the ruins close, you will have to wait for thirty years to leave.”
“Alright, I will now open the ruins. You may enter.”
Buzz!
The moment the Nascent Soul Elder’s voice fell, with the formation of a seal in his hands, space began to ripple behind him like a vortex appearing in a lake. It was a hundred feet in diameter.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The disciples of the Immortal Palace, standing beside the Nascent Soul Elder, were the first to enter.
Followed by the elites of other forces who rushed into the ruins with their Flying Boats or mounts.
Su Yu hesitated a bit but eventually followed Luo Qianyu and others into the ruins.
However, once inside the ruins, Su Yu, Luo Qianyu and the others each went their separate ways to seek their own fortunes instead of staying together.
A few days later.
Underneath a mountain, Su Yu dug out a small cave- dwelling and laid down a four-tier lower-grade invisibility and aura-concealing Formation to hide himself.
He sat cross-legged in the center of the cave and closed his eyes.
But in his mind, he cast a spell, and his soul instantly transformed into a two-winged golden cicada. The eyes of golden cicada were shining brightly, under its gaze, Su Yu was able to see towards various places in the ruins.
Breaking through space, even through mountains, dense forests, and some remaining formations and mists that could mask the Divine Sense.
Su Yu carefully inspected the opportunities within the ruins.
“These ruins are quite large.”
Although the density of nature’s spiritual energy inside the ruins was not as good as the secret realms of the Lunar Alliance and was between the third and fourth order Spirit Vein.
The area it covered was indeed huge, probably a hundred square miles.
The mountains were towering, and there were layers of mist everywhere. Even disciples at the Core Formation stage would have their Divine Senses suppressed and could only explore within a range of a hundred feet.
“The fortune to form my Nascent Soul— Should be some fourth-tier Spirit Plants and Spiritual Medicine? I wonder where I can find them.” Su Yu’s spiritual eyes started to explore from the vicinity of his mountain.
To his left, less than two miles away, he noticed a few elite disciples from other forces.
However, when Su Yu’s gaze passed over them, they noticed nothing.
After searching for a while, Su Yu stopped to recover his spiritual power, then continued.
This continued until dusk when Su Yu finally found a fourth-tier Spiritual Medicine in a valley.
The moment he saw it, his eyes lit up.
Buzz!
With ripples spreading through space, Su Yu reached out his hand. Although the medicine was more than ten miles away, the moment Su Yu stretched out his hand, the fourth-tier Spiritual Medicine from the valley was in his hand.
Not far from the Spiritual Medicine, a top-grade third-tier magical beast was lurking as a guard.
The moment the space rippled, the beast awoke with a start and raised its head.
It saw a hand appearing out of nowhere, reaching out and then, the plant that looked like a snow-red lotus and emitted a faint immortal light, vanished instantly.
This beast was stunned.
By the time it regained its senses, the spiritual medicine that it had guarded for over a decade was gone, leaving nothing behind.
“Roar!”
An enraged roar from the beast echoed throughout the forest.
For the next month…
Su Yu stayed in a cave hundreds of feet beneath the mountain. He relied on the divine skills of the Cicada Eye to search for opportunities in the ruins.
Through these days of searching, he found enough materials to refine three Core Formation Pills!
He also located more than twenty plants used in fourth-grade spiritual medicine.
With the help of spatial force, he could seize the spiritual medicine without having to contest with other talented individuals or the beasts that guarded the medicines, reaping substantial rewards without leaving the cave.
“Hmm?”
One day, like before, Su Yu used the Cicada Eye to investigate the ruins, looking for opportunities.
Suddenly, he noticed a young man, who was merely at the fifth level of the Core Formation, waving his hand to cast an Ice Spell. Surprisingly, he turned a top-tier third-grade beast into an ice sculpture!
The next moment, the young man clenched his hand.
“Bam!”
The ice sculpture instantly shattered into dust, and the top-tier third-grade beast fell on the spot!
Seeing this, Su Yu’s pupils shrank, his expression slightly changing in surprise: “A Core Formation at the fifth level can freeze and kill a top-tier third-grade beast just like that?!”
Not far from the young man, several disciples of the Immortal Palace at the ninth level of the Core Formation realm were waiting.
After witnessing the young man taking down the beast, those several individuals approached him deferentially, flattering the young man with their words.
“Daozi, your spell is becoming increasingly powerful, it even makes my heart tremble!”
“Of course, Daozi possesses the Ice Feather Spiritual Body! He is a one-in-a-billion existence. Once Daozi reaches the late Core Formation realm, even a True Monarch in the early Nascent Soul Realm will have to be cautious of Daozi’s freezing power.”
“I believe that Daozi will lead us in the future to unify the Great Immortal Sects!”
Each of the disciples of Immortal Palace, who were endowed with exceptional talents and had reached the ninth level of the Core Formation, was speaking in a way to flatter the young man.
Their gazes towards the young man even contained a hint of fanaticism. The aura of their combat intent was blatantly obvious that even from a distance, Su Yu could feel the burning fight intention emanating from these people, including the young man.
The young man appeared indifferent and ordered one of them to fetch a fourth-grade spirit plant.
Then he asked: “Have you found the locations of the other talented individuals of the various immortal sects?”
One of them immediately replied: “We have found three of them, those from Yulong Palace, Jiuling Mountain, and Xuanhuang Immortal Palace are being tracked right now.”
“Let’s go.”
“Let’s go to Yulong Palace first.”
Under the lead of the Core Formation at the ninth level, the young man and others found the talented individuals of the Yulong Palace who were exploring the ruins for opportunities.
About twenty disciples from Yulong Palace who came to the Stone Cave Ruins.
The people of the Immortal Palace found a group of eight Yulong Palace disciples, among which three had reached the ninth level of the Core Formation.
Upon seeing these eight, the young man walked over at a leisurely pace and said indifferently: “All of you, come at me together.”
“Either I’ll kill you, or you’ll kill me. There is no third outcome.”
“Boom!”
Prompted by the young man’s provocation, the eight prodigies of Yulong Palace attacked at once. However, they were turned into ice sculptures within less than a hundred breaths of time under the power of the Ice Feather Spiritual Body possessed by the young man.
Bang!
The next moment, these eight people were shattered, just like the prior beasts, and turned into feather-like ice crystals that scattered on the ground.
Over the course of ten days…
This Daozi of the Immortal Palace had killed more than thirty disciples from three major sects.
This news quickly spread throughout the ruins, causing astonishment and horror among the remaining sects.
At this time, Su Yu had located Luo Qianyu, Taoist Qingquan, and Taoist Shuhai. As he was about to locate the twin sisters Zhang Mengdie and Zhang Mengyao using the Cicada Eye, his expression slightly changed.
About thirty miles away, the twin sisters Zhang Mengdie and Zhang Mengyao had gathered nearly fifty prodigies from various sects. However, Daozi from the Immortal Palace, the warrior cultivator, had already approached with his group.
