Chapter 1481
‘s Nine Heavens had already been regained control by the heaven and earth. Holding onto the Profound light jade pendant, in the nick of time, the Celestial Sovereign s in the corner shattered it and escaped out of the spatial passageway.
Although Yang Junshan had escaped unscathed from this trip to the Nine Heavens, there were actually quite a few dangers lurking in the process.
Compared to Yang Junshan, Xing Yao Celestial Sovereign was not so lucky. When he was dragged away from the Nine Heavens, Yang Junshan had already understood that Xing Yao had already suffered heavy injuries.
However, when the two of them came out of the void passage, the Starcorner Celestial Sovereign could not help but reveal a face full of joy. It was clear that the trip to the Nine Heavens this time round would also garner him great rewards.
However, when the two of them jumped out of the spatial gate and appeared in the canyon, the scene in front of them caused them to turn pale with fright.
Before the canyon, Yan Xinyuan had already retreated from the Nine Heavens, but this time Yan Zongsheng looked extremely terrible.
His right hand had been cut off from his wrist. Although it had stopped bleeding, half of his robe was still stained with blood.
His left shoulder was two inches lower than his right, and it was clear that the shoulder blade had been broken. Even half of his left ear had been cut off.
This was clearly because his ribs had broken, and there was even some blood stains on the corner of his mouth and beard, most likely because of the injury to his abdomen.
Although Yan Zongsheng was only a middle aged man, he looked elegant and handsome, with a unique aura of a master. However, he did not have any demeanor, and his entire person looked to be in an abnormal state, covered in blood, as if he had just escaped death.
But just by looking at how heavily injured and dying he looked, when Yang Junshan and the Starcorner Celestial Sovereign appeared, he immediately felt Yan Zongsheng’s imposing manner that seemed to come from the inside.
How was this the appearance of someone who was seriously injured and near death’s door? This was clearly a sign that he was full of vitality and had accumulated quite a bit of energy.
Could it be that he was pretending to be strong on the outside but weak on the inside?
Not only Yang Junshan, even the Starcorner Celestial Sovereign could not help but have this thought.
But at this time, a person turned around from Yan Zongsheng’s side, and upon seeing the two of them, immediately pointed with his finger, signalling for them to keep quiet, he was Yan Zongsheng’s grand disciple, Han Zhong’s Celestial Sovereign.
Seeing that Han Zhong Celestial Sovereign had an expression of uncontrollable excitement, Yang Junshan was even more surprised. He looked at each other, walked around a distance, and sat down on a stone platform.
At this time, Yang Junshan looked around and discovered that there were already a few Celestial Sovereign s in his surroundings who had retreated out of the Nine Heavens a step ahead of them. At this time, they were also like them, sitting in a circle around Yan Zongsheng, looking as if they were protecting Yan Zongsheng.
The spatial gate not far away was still standing tall, but at this time, it was already beginning to flicker with light. As the Nine Heavens began to return into the control of the Heavenly Emperor of the Nine Heavens, the opened passage in the plane would soon be repaired, and the later the cultivator came out, the greater the risk.
At this time, Yang Junshan felt someone gently tug at his sleeves. When he turned his head, it waelestial Sovereign in the corner that was beside him, gesturing to him.
Yang Junshan’s heart stirred as he hurriedly asked in a low voice, “Fellow Daoist Han, this is …”
The excitement on Han Zhong Celestial Sovereign’s face was hard to conceal, so much so that his voice trembled slightly as he said, “Martial Ancestor is about to condense the ‘Flower of the Earth’!”
The Patriarch once said that his process of condensing the ‘Flower of the Earth’ might be beneficial to your future cultivation. Fellow Daoists, please observe and attune yourselves to your insights.
Han Zhong only spoke a few words with the two of them before he hurriedly left. At the Void Portal, two more Celestial Sovereign s escaped from the Nine Heavens, leaving behind Yang Junshan and Xing Ya, the two Celestial Sovereign s, who had faces full of shock.
This time, the various immortals had joined hands to invade the Nine Heavens, regardless of whether it was Yang Junshan or the Starcorner Celestial Sovereign, they all admitted that their gains were not small from the Nine Heavens, but now it seems that the true benefit was probably Yan Zongsheng himself.
Of course, from the surface, Yan Zongsheng had also paid an extremely heavy price, but compared to condensing an “Earth Flower”, these costs were nothing.
How long had it been since Yan Zongsheng held the Great Luo Immortal Banquet?
Now, it was about to condense the ‘Flower of the Earth’ from the ‘Top Three Flowers’!
Cultivators’ cultivations were all higher and higher, making it more and more difficult to advance. There were still plenty of people who wasted hundreds of years cultivating because of the Five Elements in their chest.
However, as a Immortal Celestial Lord, Yan Zongsheng was actually about to condense another “Flower of the Earth” less than a hundred years after condensing a “Flower of the People” and advancing into the Da Lou Realm. How could these immortals, who had wasted hundreds and thousands of years in the Primordial Immortal s and Golden Body Wonderland, endure this?
The top three flowers, the sky, the earth, and the people respectively correspond to the following, middle, and early stages of Great Luo Wonderland.
If Yan Zongsheng was able to successfully condense the “Flower of the Earth” this time, then he would be able to successfully advance to the middle stage of the Great Luo Wonderland!
After they had recovered from their shock, Yang Junshan and the Star Region Celestial Sovereign hurriedly held their breath, focusing all of their attention on observing the process of Yan Zongsheng’s advancement.
Yang Junshan activated his entire consciousness and his Dianthus to the extreme as well. He immediately saw a huge wave of vitality gather above his head.
At the place where the five waves of vitality gathered, a Jade Flower that was nourished by the five energies suddenly bloomed. It should be one of the symbols of Great Luo Wonderland, the “Flower of Men”.
However, right now, beside the “Flower of Human”, under the nourishment of the five energies, another golden flower was almost fully bloomed. It was known as the “Flower of Metal”, also known as the “Flower of Earth”.
It was just that this “Earth Flower” had not blossomed yet, and had not fully matured yet. Only when the “Earth Flower” fully bloomed, could Yan Zongsheng be considered to have completed his mission and advanced to the middle stage of the Great Luo Wonderland.
Compared to watching Yan Zongsheng condense the three flowers on top of his head, Yang Junshan’s attention was more focused on the fusion of the five waves of vitality.
Those five waves of Essence should be the Five Elements Essence Qi within Yan Zongsheng’s body.
Only when the five elements had been completely merged into one, reaching the realm of “five energies and elemental energy”, could the fusion of the five elements be used to nourish the “top three flowers”.
Yang Junshan’s goal was to comprehend the secrets of the “Five Elements of Dawn” during the process of Yan Zongsheng’s fusion of the five elements and five organs.
Yang Junshan was quickly immersed in it, and had already gained some insights.
Initially, Yan Zongsheng had used the “Righteous Qi” sacred art that was passed down in the Confucian, and in one go, he gathered the divine powers that the dozen or so Celestial Sovereign s had used to break the Nine Heavens of the plane barrier.
At that time, because Yang Junshan had maintained the spatial tunnel that included his Nine Heavens, he had felt the profoundness of this secret skill of the Confucian at close proximity.
From Yang Junshan’s perspective, the current situation of Yan Zongsheng’s Five Elements of Five Elements of Five Elements and Five Organs Qi was actually similar to how he felt when he first sensed the “Nature Energy” of the “Five Elements of Qi”.
This made Yang Junshan interested, could it be that there was some connection between the Confucian’s inheritance of the technique and the Golden Body Wonderland’s “Five Elements of Rising Sun”?
The moment he grabbed hold of the inspiration, Yang Junshan was completely immersed in the process of pursuing the profoundness within.
Yang Junshan did not understand the cultivation method of “Nature Energy”, but this did not prevent him from gaining some insights from it. His intuition told him that as long as he could geough idea of what was going on, perhaps he would be able to step over the threshold of “Five Elements Dynasty”.
This did not mean that the Confucian’s inheritance of “Righteous Qi” was amazing, but it was because Yang Junshan was only a layer of window paper away from the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm, and what Yang Junshan needed was only a bit of inspiration to learn.
Yang Junshan, who was immersed in his comprehension, had already forgotten about the passage of time, and at the same time, forgot about everything around him. Even the immortal elemental energy in his body was transforming according to his comprehension.
Time slowly passed, and one by one, the Celestial Sovereign who had invaded the Nine Heavens returned, the plane barrier had long since been repaired and closed, but in the end three of them were still unable to come out, and Sun Chengjian was one of them.
Everyone understood that after the Nine Heavens had been closed, the fates of the three immortals who had yet to return, regardless of whether they were dead or alive, were already determined.
Even so, the deaths of the three Profound Practitioners made all the Celestial Sovereign present sigh endlessly.
The path of Immortality was limitless; even the most exalted of immortals wouldn’t be able to guarantee that they would be able to live forever.
However, this feeling quickly passed by, and the gathered deities within the canyon were all attracted by the process of Yan Xinyuan condensing the “Earth Flower”.
Furthermore, as time passed, the Celestial Sovereign awakened from their comprehension and began to discuss with each other about their respective gains.
Over ten Immortals were having a gathering, and over half of them were even Golden Immortals. This sort of exchange and sparring was something rarely seen even in the Starry Sky world.
“Congratulations, fellow cultivator Ceng. Your kidney water source has been opened. You are now one step closer to the completion of your five energies!”
“No, no. If it wasn’t for Yan Zongsheng’s five auras gathering and obtaining a bit, how would he be able to obtain this opportunity!”
“Martial Nephew Han Zhong’s trip this time isn’t bad either. I’m afraid that after returning to the Confucian Garden, he will begin to reconstruct his immortal body, right?”
“There’s still a long way to go, a long way to go. But if it wasn’t for the ancestor’s advice, my Golden Body Wonderland would still be a long way off for my disciple. No matter what happens today, I finally found some hope.” There warace of pride in Han Zhong Celestial Sovereign’s reserved tone.
“I have been waiting here for a few months to exchange pointers. Other than the first moment when I gained some insights, the biggest reason is that I want to witness Yan Zongsheng condensing the ‘Flower of the Earth’, which iare sight even in the entire Starry Sky Great World. However, this Taoist Yang has been immersed in cultivation the entire time, could it be that he has truly comprehended some sort of extraordinary opportunity?”
Some Celestial Sovereign s could not help but change the topic to Yang Junshan, because from the beginning to the end, he did not say a single word, and the immortal elemental energy in his body continuously circulated.
“Heh, who knows. Don’t forget that this person had already mastered the source of the heart fire qi from Yan Zongsheng’s’ Zither Sound Method ‘back then. Who knows, maybe he really would have comprehended some secret this time, and maybe it might even be a secret that the Confucian did not pass on.” This one sounded jealous, and even somewhat provocative.
However, one of them coldly snorted and said, “How could the secrets of the Confucian Immortal clan be so easily stolen by an outsider?”
But just as he finished speaking, the origin of the air in Yang Junshan’s body suddenly appeared. The five elemental energies within his five organs rose up like five gigantic waves, looking exactly the same as Yan Zongsheng’s!
