The sect gate of the Vast Sky Palace was the same as the Cult of Heaven's Transformation — a huge mountain occupied an astonis.h.i.+ng amount of land.
There were strange flowers and trees everywhere, and a spirit pond was flowing with waterfalls. Many white deer and feathered cranes were wandering in this place, and many beautiful ancient and simple palaces were faintly discernible in the mountain forest. The entire mountain gave people a feeling of elegance.
Although no astonis.h.i.+ng splendor was revealed, Wei Suo could feel the remnants of many powerful auras when he spread out his Spiritual Sense.
In the entire Heavenly Mystery Palace, there were countless traces and restrictions left behind by senior cultivators. However, they were like ancient treasures, and their auras were contained within them, not revealing them to the public.
An ancient path made from white, white, white jade snaked through the mountain. On this path, there were quite a few disciples of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, as well as a hundred children who were still in their p.u.b.erty. They were all sitting on the flat ground next to the ancient path, holding bamboo slips in their hands as they read.
It was forbidden to fly or cast spells within the sect gates of the entire Wuji Heavenly Palace. However, Taoist Yuhuang's status in the palace was very high, and was not restricted. Hence, he brought Wei Suo and the others and flew towards the back of the mountain.
"The Skysword Sect is preparing to use it against me. What is it?" Wei Suo calmly asked as he sized up the background of this astonis.h.i.+ngly large sect.
One of the Heavenly Sword Sect disciples who had caused his parents' death was called Du Wei, the other was called Cao Yi. According to Liu He who had interrogated him in the Magic Vein, that person called Du Wei did not have much success, he was just an ordinary disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, but Cao Yi was already at the Jindan Stage. He was a Successor Disciple of the Sect Master of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and his status in the Heavenly Sword Sect was extremely high.
His enmity with the Skysword Sect was irreconcilable. The Skysword Sect would definitely want to deal with him. However, he was not in a hurry to deal with them. Instead, the Skysword Sect wanted to deal with him. He could not help but laugh coldly in his heart. Huangpu Jue was the only Mysterious G.o.d expert in the Heavenly Sword Sect, and even the current sect master was only at the fifth level of the Aurous Core stage. If the Heavenly Sword Sect wanted to deal with him, they would have to rely on some kind of amazing magical equipment.
And a super large sect like the Skysword Sect had an extraordinary background. Although Wei Suo sneered in his heart, he still had to be careful.
"I don't know the specifics, but it was said that the Heavenly Sword Sect had already revealed that they would not be human unless I killed you. And not long ago, the Heavenly Sword Sect even sent someone to ask me how did I find you last time with Huangpu Jue. They wanted me to accompany them to find you again." I saw that the two elders from the Skysword Sect that came looking for me were in a frenzy. They seemed to have suffered a huge loss, as if they were red-eyed gamblers. Furthermore, from the looks of my words and their tone, it seems like they have something that is sufficient enough to kill you. Daoist Master Yuhuang looked at Wei Suo and said, "I claimed that last time we relied on the Heavenly Sea G.o.d Lan Mirror to find you. However, the Heavenly Sea G.o.d Lan Mirror had already fallen into your hands following Huangpu's unparalleled fall.
"They just left?" Wei Suo's eyes immediately flickered. According to this explanation, the Heavenly Sword Sect must have already known that they were on their way to the Cloud Spirit Continent to kill Wei Suo's group of antiques, gus.h.i.+ng out items like the "Mysterious Mystery Dao Fruit" and the "Eight Adamantine Extinguis.h.i.+ng Divine Crystals". In the end, they couldn't do anything about it and were killed by Wei Suo instead. Something of that level was indeed a fatal threat to Wei Suo.
"They should have been gone for more than two hours. It should be hard to find them." Daoist Master Yuhuang knew that Wei Suo definitely wanted to capture the two Skysword Sect elders and interrogate them. Thus, she shook her head and replied.
"It's very likely to be some sort of sword formation." Daoist Master Yuhuang knew of Ling Long Tian's true ident.i.ty, so she didn't try to hide it. She humphed and said, "Some of the sword formations are extremely powerful. The Skysword Sect mainly cultivates flying swords. Who knows, they might have some powerful sword formation inheritance."
"Kid, it's very possible. "It seems I'll have to secretly investigate this matter. Otherwise, I won't be so careless and die." He knew very well that there were some sword formations that could fuse the power of hundreds or even thousands of sword cultivators' flying swords into one. They were a combination of attack and defense, and possessed extremely terrifying might.
"Looks like I'll have to meet the Skysword Sect again this time." Wei Suo nodded his head. If he didn't figure out what the Heavenly Sword Sect was up to, he wouldn't be at ease even on his way back to the Cloud Spirit Continent.
"Is there anyone in the entire Wuji Heavenly Palace who is unsatisfied with you? Can you suppress them?" Afterwards, Wei Suo looked at Daoist Master Yu Huang and asked. Now, Spiritual Master Yuhuang was equivalent to his ally. If the Wuji Heavenly Palace decided to go against him, he wouldn't mind eliminating him along the way.
"No, I have already explained to the Elders Guild that you do not wish to become enemies with the Wuji Heavenly Palace. If everyone is safe and sound, most of the Elders of the Wuji Heavenly Palace would investigate the past and feel that you are very trustworthy. In addition, you have no irreconcilable enmity with the Wuji Heavenly Palace, so everyone has reached an agreement and no one is dissatisfied with this decision. If they knew that even the Divine Master Xu was no match for you, they would probably think it was even more fortunate to be injured by you. " Daoist Master Yuhuang looked at Wei Suo and said, "If it wasn't for the fact that our Tiantang Palace wasn't strong enough to fight against the Black Wind Sect and Zhen Wu Sect, we could have befriended you in broad daylight."
"What the h.e.l.l, everyone actually said that this d.a.m.n business has credibility." Ling Long Tian grinded her teeth in displeasure as she groaned in her heart.
The mountain behind the huge mountain where the Wuji Heavenly Palace was located had many precipitous cliffs, which were as steep as a knife, and many of them were valleys.
Within these gorges, there were many palaces and pavilions, as well as quite a few disciples patrolling the area. Evidently, these were also important locations within the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Daoist Master Yu Huang brought Wei Suo and the rest to a valley halfway up the back mountain.
There were many stone forests in this valley. One after another, large green rocks of strange shapes and sizes, like a green ox or an eagle, without any tall trees, only had short weeds growing on them.
In front of a large stone forest, there was a wooden house. There were a lot of people dressed in plain clothes and it was obvious that they were the disciples of Wuji Heavenly Palace. When they saw Yu Huang descending with Wei Suo's group, these disciples immediately bowed in reverence.
"This valley is the residence of the janitor disciples who specially helped the sect grow wood mushrooms that could strengthen the bodies of low-level cultivators. Normally, even inner sect disciples rarely enter this place." Daoist Master Yuhuang introduced the place to Wei Suo and then led him into a stone forest.
Wei Suo spread out his Spiritual Sense to cover the entire stone forest that was filled with oddly-shaped bluestone blocks.
The entire stone forest was very quiet, and there was no aura that made him feel strange at all. It seemed to be just an ordinary rock.
In the depths of this stone forest, Daoist Master Yuhuang stopped in front of a pillar like bluestone that was as tall as a person. There were many yellow wild chrysanthemums and weeds growing around the bluestone, but there were no signs of human life.
"This is the Green Stone?"
Wei Suo curiously sized up this bluestone. He soon saw that on the side of this ordinary looking bluestone, which did not have any unique aura emitted by it, a few pieces of the palm-sized rock skin had fallen.
Within the stone skin, there were actually some faint yellow lines. It seemed like a figure had formed a magical seal and stood still.
"This …?"
Ling Long Tian and the rest had also discovered this place at almost the same time and approached to take a closer look.
This faint yellow pattern gave off the feeling of a mural being drawn by someone. However, within each faint yellow pattern, there seemed to be countless even smaller grains, giving off the impression that it was a naturally formed divine pattern.
"I've already tested. The stone skin on the outside can be cut off, but the stone on the inside with these lines is difficult to cut off." Spiritual Master Yuhuang looked at Wei Suo and the others and said, "If your mantra and might were to hit this thing, it would bounce back and you would not be able to penetrate it." When my divine sense penetrated inside, I only felt that there was a pattern inside, but it was so bright that I couldn't see it clearly. Moreover, this piece of stone couldn't be absorbed at all, and it couldn't even be stored within a treasure bag. "
Wei Suo carefully circled around the blue rock several times, even trying to cut off a few pieces of stone skin, and then tested the impact of his arcane power. The stone skin on the outside was no different from a green stone, but the stone inside was extremely shocking. Wei Suo's technique and might was just as Adept Yuhuang had said, being reflected directly. As for the gray light emitted by Ling Long Tian's grey bracelet, it seemed to not interfere with the stone at all.
Following that, Wei Suo couldn't help but use his spiritual sense to probe the stone. As for Ling Long Tian, her eyes flashed with a golden light, as if she wanted to see through this huge rock.
"What the h.e.l.l is this?!"
The Exquisite Sky couldn't help but let out a cry and fiercely blink. The first thing she saw was a picture floating inside this large stone, but almost at the same moment she saw it, this picture suddenly emitted endless blazing divine light, causing her eyes to directly feel needle-like stabs of pain. She no longer dared to look, and couldn't clearly see what exactly was inside the picture.
"Is it a diagram?" This should be the legacy of an almighty senior. " When Wei Suo probed with his Spiritual Sense, he also discovered that while a picture was floating in a large stone, it was blocked by the endless divine light at the same time. Even with Wei Suo's scattered spiritual sense, which originated from the True Immortal Inscriptions, he was unable to break through the blazing divine light and was unable to clearly see the scene within the painting. However, Wei Suo was certain that this kind of item was not something that could be naturally created by the heavens and earth. It was definitely something that senior Supreme Elders had left behind.
Next, Wei Suo, Ling Long Tian, and the others tried everything they could to get rid of the stone skin on the outside. However, other than the fact that there were more than a dozen traces of pale yellow that resembled human murals, the stone did not use any techniques nor did it use spiritual sense to sense anything unusual.
Wei Suo even meticulously searched the valley, including its surroundings. He sensed every inch of the valley to see if there were any other auras left behind by almighty beings. It was just like the Seven Treasures Secret Grounds. He was still in many different places, meditating with his eyes closed at various times and times to see if he could comprehend the unique and profound principles of the Little Ling Valley. However, after a day and a night, he had still come up empty-handed.
"Is your cultivation not enough?" "Seems like I can only wait until my cultivation level increases before I try again …"
Half a day later, Wei Suo also took the Immortal Emperor Wood in his hands, shaking his head and sighing. The feeling this stone gave him was the same as the Immortal Emperor Wood he had. It was as if it had been completely transformed into a mysterious object by a supreme elder using unique Realm of the G.o.ds' power. This level of power was far beyond his, to the point where he couldn't even begin to comprehend it. And he definitely could not continue to waste time here, so he could only give up temporarily.
"This …?" However, to the surprise of both Wei Suo and Ling Long Tian, who were already prepared to give up, Wei Suo took out the Immortal Emperor Wood. While he was shaking his head and sighing, all the yellow lines on the stone suddenly flashed, glowed, and then immediately shrank back!
