"I have already checked," Xin Lie said. "These peaks had steles placed upon them before, a total of eighteen, which are precisely what I seek to find."
"Unfortunately... these steles have already disappeared," Emperor Dugu Jingtian sighed.
"It doesn't matter," Xin Lie waved his hand and smiled. "As long as we're certain the steles are within this space, I have a way to find them."
"Ah?" Dugu Jingtian was startled. "How does the Immortal plan to search for them?"
"I know a secret technique, after casting it, I can sense the location of the steles."
"If that's the case, then that's great."
"Casting this secret technique carries a great cost. It could severely harm one's Yuan Qi, and in serious cases, lead directly to death."
"That serious?" Dugu Jingtian jumped in fright. "Immortal, let's think of other thods..."
"What other thods could there be?" Xin Lie said. "Tell , do you have any?"
Dugu Jingtian was left speechless.
"Help protect the law while I cast the secret technique now to search for the whereabouts of the steles." Xin Lie was an impatient man who liked to act promptly, never one to dilly-dally.
Seeing Xin Lie's determination, Dugu Jingtian could no longer advise otherwise, and could only silently pray in his heart that Xin Lie would not incur any mishap.
"After I find the steles, I will fulfill my promise and take you to the Immortal Realm," Xin Lie said.
"Thank you, Immortal!" Dugu Jingtian quickly voiced his thanks.
Xin Lie found a flat area to sit down, brought his hands together, closed his eyes, and began to mutter words. The secret technique he was casting had an impressive-sounding na, "Qiankun Resonance Technique," a renowned advanced spell in the Immortal Realm that ordinary people had no chance to cultivate. One had to have a certain status to be eligible to cultivate it.
Back then, Xin Lie had suffered quite a bit to cultivate this spell.
The Qiankun Resonance Technique had many effects. First, it could track enemies; second, it could sense the location of a certain item; and it could also train one's Divine Sense. Put simply, the Qiankun Resonance Technique was a spell for training Divine Sense.
Casting the Qiankun Resonance Technique ca with significant side effects. First, it would consu a large amount of True Qi, and second, it could cause damage to Divine Sense. Furthermore, it had a ti limit; at most, one could maintain the spell for an hour. After casting the spell, one's Qi would weaken significantly, and it would take many days to recover.
Another point was that it consud one's lifespan!
The Qiankun Resonance Technique was too defying, so it was restricted by the heavens. No matter who it was, casting the Qiankun Resonance Technique would greatly reduce one's lifespan, by decades at the least and by thousands of years at most.
Therefore, no one would cast the Qiankun Resonance Technique unless absolutely necessary.
Additionally, the Qiankun Resonance Technique had a flaw: it could only be cast within a specific space and could not search other spaces. For example, if one was in Space A, they could only cast the Qiankun Resonance Technique within Space A. Once they left the range of Space A, the technique would lose its effect.
Xin Lie of Elysium was only an avatar, but he still dared not overexert himself, for excessive consumption could directly affect his true body.
...
"Universe without extremity, Qiankun in rotation, go!" Xin Lie suddenly stretched out his hand and struck his chest. "Puchi!" A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed from Xin Lie's mouth, his complexion instantly turning as pale as paper, his breath weak and powerless. To cast this secret technique, Xin Lie had paid a trendous price, spraying several mouthfuls of Essence Blood. Essence Blood was the most vital blood in the human body. Losing so much at once, anyone would feel heartache, and at that mont, Xin Lie felt terrible heartache indeed.
"Do not disturb !" After giving this instruction, Xin Lie closed his eyes and remained silent.
Beams of light burst forth from Xin Lie's body, then flew off in all directions…
Standing at a distance, Emperor Dugu Jingtian watched without blinking. Was this an Immortal Realm secret technique? It seed quite ordinary?
...
Tens of thousands of miles away.
As Gao Fei was ditating in quiet cultivation, his eyes suddenly snapped open, a look of astonishnt on his face: "What's going on? Why have there been disturbances with those eighteen steles?" Just monts ago, the eighteen steles that were kept in the storage ring started to float and violently collided with the storage ring.
"An anomaly is surely the work of demons!" Xuan Jizi's voice echoed in his mind: "Hurry and find a way to restrain these steles."
Gao Fei pressed his hand on the storage ring, channeling True Qi into it to suppress the steles... but it was ineffective! Left with no choice, Gao Fei had to think of another thod, manipulating dozens of treasures with his ntal power to restrain the steles, only to have them all knocked away by the steles... Following that, Gao Fei placed the steles into the bronze coffin, to no avail...
Gao Fei had tried every thod he could think of, all to no effect.
The steles were striking the storage ring with increased force. If this continued, the storage ring would inevitably shatter.
"What should I do now?" Gao Fei stomped his feet in a panic: "This is driving mad, why have these steles suddenly gone crazy? Is it a coincidence? Or is there another reason? Right! I've got it!" Gao Fei retrieved the Thousand Transformations Stone: "This is my last resort. If this doesn't work, then I'm truly out of options."
After calming his agitated emotions, Gao Fei tossed the Thousand Transformations Stone into the air and shouted, "Transform! Change for !"
"Swoosh!"
Under Gao Fei's control, the Thousand Transformations Stone morphed into a sealed large chest. Gao Fei quickly placed the eighteen steles into the chest and fastened the lid... The mont the lid closed, the steles stopped trembling.
"It worked." Gao Fei breathed a sigh of relief: "At the critical mont, I still had to rely on the Thousand Transformations Stone. Even the bronze coffin couldn't suppress the steles, but the Thousand Transformations Stone did, which proves one point—the Thousand Transformations Stone is even more powerful than the bronze coffin."
"The bronze coffin is a Spiritual Treasure, and if the Thousand Transformations Stone is more powerful than the bronze coffin, then the Thousand Transformations Stone is at least a Spiritual Treasure, or even sothing that surpasses a Spiritual Treasure," Xuan Jizi said.
"Why did the steles act up?" Now that the steles were restrained, Gao Fei finally relaxed, as he had been extrely anxious monts before.
"I have an intuition... This matter is related to that Immortal who descended to the mortal world."
"Immortal?"
"Apart from that possibility, I can't think of any other," Xuan Jizi remarked.
"Ever since I got these steles, I've been living in fear. I really want to get rid of them right away."
"Would you really be willing to part with them?" Xuan Jizi asked calmly.
"I... Of course, I'm not willing to…"
"Since you're not willing, stop talking about getting rid of them from now on."
After this incident, Gao Fei had no mood for cultivation. He stood up and began pacing back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, thinking over the situation with the steles. However, after a long while, he still had no clue.
