Capítulo 1281: Chapter 1255: Figures from Ancient Tis
“There is sothing strange,” Tangyu shook his head after examining for a while, frowning and in deep thought.
Sun Wukong didn’t understand this and asked, “Why is it strange? This ghostly place, I feel like it’s hard for us to get out, are we trapped here?”
Tangyu shook his head, “I don’t know, believe that there’s always a way out. I just feel there is sothing odd in this small space; I always feel so things here are not real, but rather illusionary.”
“Not real?” Sun Wukong was even more confused.
Tangyu nodded, “Yes, not real. You can’t tell by looking with the naked eye, it’s only a feeling, a keen sense. I feel there is an illusion array or a maze formation in this small space, so what we see may not be entirely real. But for now, it’s just a feeling, whether it’s true or not, I need to study it carefully.”
Tangyu resud his research; he’s not proficient in formations, only has so understanding. After studying for three more days, Tangyu suddenly moved, and his Pangu Axe cut heavily into the void, creating a hole in space. Once the hole opened, a holy light radiated from it. It wasn’t a spatial rift that appeared, but a new space.
Seeing this, Tangyu revealed a trace of joy on his face because he knew his feeling was right; indeed, a formation was covering sothing.
Fortunately, the formation wasn’t too powerful, and possibly due to the passage of ti, no power could sustain the formation, reducing its power considerably. Tangyu found the weakness in the formation, broke it, then expanded from that point, instantly collapsing the entire formation.
Once the formation completely broke open, a figure like an ice sculpture erged before Tangyu and Sun Wukong. Seeing this figure, Tangyu was slightly stunned, his eyes wide, staring at it.
There was actually a man sitting cross-legged here, dressed like a person from Ancient Tis, appearing to be about fifty years old. He looked lifelike, as if he were cultivating in seclusion. His body was covered by a layer of crystal, which Tangyu imdiately recognized, “It’s Immortal Crystal, using Immortal Crystal to completely cover his body. So many Immortal Crystals, are they used to preserve his corpse?”
The Immortal Crystal is incredibly valuable, and such a large amount is undoubtedly priceless. This scene reminded Tangyu of the ti he was on Earth, at Skies Beyond the Skies when he first t his elder brother Zi Cang—a situation almost identical to the current one. Thus, Tangyu pondered, “Using Immortal Crystal, could it be that this ancient being is using this thod to slumber here, then awaken later?”
If it weren’t for similar situations on Earth, Tangyu wouldn’t easily believe it.
Zi Cang and the rest sealed themselves for five thousand years, could these people from Ancient Tis also seal themselves?
“The history of the World of the Gods is incredibly long, traceable to Ancient Tis, spanning unknown years, far more than hundreds of thousands. If this person is truly from Ancient Tis, he might be hundreds or even millions of years old. Is it really possible to seal and survive such long years? Even in Seeking Immortal, one doesn’t live over ten thousand years. Immortal Venerate, ten thousand years is the limit. Only by becoming an Immortal can one live eternally, existing with heaven and earth.”
“Can such a long span truly be sealed?”
Tangyu also didn’t know this situation.
Sun Wukong scratched his head, circling the ancient figure several tis before saying, “This person must have been dead for a very long ti, yet preserved so vividly. It’s truly a miracle. So many Immortal Crystals on him, if we took them all, we’d strike it rich.”
Seeing Sun Wukong really want to pick the Immortal Crystals off the ancient figure’s body, Tangyu was startled and quickly pulled him back, “Brother Monkey, don’t move.”
Sun Wukong looked at Tangyu with confusion, “Why? Isn’t this person long dead? Leaving Immortal Crystals on him is a waste. Plus, you see he has a Qiankun Bag on him; haha, first extract the Immortal Crystals, then seize the Qiankun Bag, we’d be rich. Might even get an Immortal Artifact that helps us to escape.”
Tangyu shook his head, “We must not, Brother Monkey; this ancient person might be self-sealed here. Disrespecting him could lead to our doom.”
“No way? Self-sealed, you’re saying he’s not dead?” Sun Wukong was surprised, a little incredulous.
Of course, Tangyu wasn’t certain; he could only say it’s a possibility. Due to previous occurrences on Earth, Tangyu was cautious. Offending this ancient being might incur a deadly fate.
Sun Wukong was clearly tempted, itching to move, but since Tangyu told him not to, he naturally obeyed.
“However, how do we get out?” Sun Wukong asked.
Tangyu raised an eyebrow and said, “I don’t have a good solution now, so we can only cultivate here first. Using the Immortal Vein, we should enhance our strength as much as possible. If there’s absolutely no way out, then we’ll have to take a risky attempt and break through from here.”
Sun Wukong nodded, as there seed to be no other choice now.
The two continued to cultivate, lavishly consuming the Immortal Vein to train, and of course, their cultivation speed was astonishingly fast.
Within a few days, Tangyu broke through to the Fifth Layer of the Zifu Realm once again, while Brother Monkey found himself stuck in a bottleneck at the Sixth Layer of Zifu Realm. Advancing from the Sixth to the Seventh Level is usually a minor hurdle, and overcoming it is not easy. Various factors can contribute to this hurdle.
Tangyu comforted Sun Wukong, saying, “Brother Monkey, don’t worry. After all, your cultivation ti is still too short. Such rapid improvents and breakthroughs make hitting bottlenecks very normal. Haste makes waste, so you should relax now and stop cultivating. Your mindset might not yet be mature enough.”
If one’s mindset is insufficient, forcing an attempt to enhance their realm could lead to Deviation.
Sun Wukong also had no choice but to stop cultivating. Tangyu felt that after breaking through to the Sixth Layer, he might encounter a bottleneck too. Just then, Tangyu’s heart stirred, his brows furrowed, and he swept the Immortal Vein away with a wave of his hand. His gaze, sharp as a sword, scanned the Wind Waterfall, where a sudden beam of light tore through, aiming directly at Tangyu. Shortly thereafter, a figure dressed in armor appeared, charging towards Tangyu with overwhelming montum and intensity.
To pass through the Quicksand Wind Waterfall and enter this central area, it’s clear the newcor is extraordinary.
Tangyu snorted coldly, “I’ve long anticipated that the Yao and Demon Clans wouldn’t easily let this go. True to expectations, they’ve sent soone in.”
The situation was sothing Tangyu had foreseen. The Yao and Demon Clans surely had their thods to send soone into the Quicksand Wind Waterfall, and now soone indeed has co to attack.
“Get out of here!” cried Sun Wukong angrily, thumping the Jingu Bang heavily, while Tangyu unleashed Pangu Nine Axes, chopping down fiercely. Their combined forces, having greatly enhanced their abilities, were terrifying. Even a Seeking Immortal would be pushed back by their strength. However, the opponent was laden with treasures and prepared for this, slashing with a sword that dismantled Tangyu and Sun Wukong’s power.
The strike left the two sides evenly matched.
The newcor was a mber of the Yao Race, his strange gaze steadily fixed on Tangyu and Sun Wukong. “Hmph, it’s surprising that you two survived entering the Quicksand Wind Waterfall. In the center of the waterfall, there’s indeed a peaceful small space, no wonder you managed to stay alive. I’ve been looking for you two for a long ti. But now, you’re finally in my hands. This ti, you’ll find it hard to escape. Just obediently hand over the Immortal Vein. Hehe, maybe I’ll leave your corpses intact.”
Facing the doorstep attack, Tangyu certainly wasn’t afraid, having significantly increased power along with Sun Wukong. Even if a Seeking Immortal arrived, they wouldn’t be fearful, let alone just a Great Demon of the Ninth Layer. Despite the treasures the adversary held, there was no fear.
Moreover, there was no retreating in this battle, only a fight to the death.
“Hmph, everyone can talk big. But in the end, it’s strength that counts. If you have the strength to kill us, then go ahead. However, those who boast often et with misfortune,” replied Tangyu.
“Oh, is that so? Then I’ll have to test it,” sneered the Yao, his words tinged with mockery. But when his eyes fell on the figure from Ancient Tis, they lit up, “Oh, who would’ve thought this small space would hide a little secret? This is the Immortal Body of a figure from Ancient Tis, seemingly a powerful Seeking Immortal. Quite a remarkable setup, fully covered by Immortal Crystal. The Qiankun Bag is also still on him.”
“Haha, good, very good indeed. It seems this is quite a harvest, a delightful surprise. Excellent, excellent. Not only can I kill you, but there’s such benefit to gain. Wonderful, wonderful. All mine. Haha, if only I could obtain an Immortal Artifact, I wouldn’t fear common Seeking Immortals.”
“You two whelps, co et your demise!”
With that, the Yao intended to strike but was suddenly interrupted by a powerful voice resonating from the Wind Waterfall, “Yao Race, you’ve gotten here first, but to think you can feast alone, you need to ask if this Demon agrees.”
Swish—
The Wind Waterfall split open, and a tall, imposing figure erged from the Quicksand Wind Waterfall, clearly a mber of the Demon Clan.
Seeing the newcor, the Yao’s expression beca visibly displeased, never expecting the Demon Clan to find their way so quickly. Surely, long nights invite dreams. With the Demon Clan’s arrival, it wouldn’t be easy to feast alone. The credit for the Immortal Vein is of little concern, but the Immortal Body from Ancient Tis here could certainly be privately claid. After all, the superior wants only the Immortal Vein; everything else could be freely kept.
Securing both the treasure and great credit, a dual profit, naturally drove the Yao towards jealousy and frenzy. Unexpectedly, another party has co to compete.
