Chapter 1969 - 1951: Oh No, This Is Bad!
Black Cloud Metal?
Does this Cultivation World actually have Black Cloud Metal?
...
At this moment, the Great Elder and others were also stunned. They had never thought that the Absolute Sword Ancestor would actually give away Black Cloud Metal. Even the Great Elder and others had only heard of it but never seen it. The rarity of this Black Cloud Metal surpasses even the Black Spirit Stone. That Absolute Sword Ancestor just gave it to Fang Yan, making them envious beyond measure.
It can be said that a piece of Black Cloud Metal like this is valuable enough to be worth dozens of Heavenly Grade Elixirs, which shows how exaggerated its value is. Hence, everyone’s heart was very heated, even the Great Elder and the others. However, this Black Cloud Metal was given to Fang Yan openly by the Absolute Sword Ancestor, and Fang Yan’s own strength is also so formidable, so even though everyone was tempted, no one dared to have designs on the Black Cloud Metal.
It’s actually Black Cloud Metal!
Hearing the exclamations from the Supreme Immortal Sect members, Fang Yan then realized what he was holding. It turned out to be the legendary Black Cloud Metal. He knew about this from Lin Feng’s inherited memories, but without a specific image, he didn’t know what it was before. Now that he knew what it was, a smile appeared on his face.
Although he and Lin Feng both had good Dharma Treasures and weapons, such a good thing could not be given to others. At worst, he could let his main body Lin Feng handle it later. With this in mind, he immediately put away the Black Cloud Metal and floated towards the three Great Elders.
"Great Elder, two Supreme Elders, forgive me for acting on my own and letting the other party go." Facing the three, Fang Yan bowed slightly and said calmly. After all, this time it was the Great Elder leading the team, so it was necessary to give the Great Elder face at this moment.
"It’s fine, letting one go doesn’t matter." The Great Elder nodded at Fang Yan and said, if it were someone else, he would definitely hold them accountable. After all, there must be many good things in the space treasure of an Earth Immortal Realm Powerhouse. But since it was Fang Yan who let them go, even if he had some thoughts, he wouldn’t hold Fang Yan accountable for this matter.
The other two Supreme Elders did not speak but carefully scrutinized Fang Yan. From the earlier sight of the twin dragons of ice and fire, they could clearly feel that Fang Yan’s body didn’t only have the Nine Suns Suppression Heaven Art. There must also be other ice attribute spells. They were very curious about how Fang Yan managed to fuse these two kinds of spells together.
"Fang Yan, what spells do you know?" one of the two Supreme Elders asked as he looked at Fang Yan, genuinely wanting to know what was going on.
"In reply to the Supreme Elder, I know quite a few: the Fang Family’s Square Combat Art, the Divine Sword Sect’s Divine Sword Heaven-Eroding Heaven Arts, Nine Suns Suppression Heaven Art, and Emperor Hong Bing’s Nine Ice Divine Control Technique." Fang Yan hurriedly replied when he heard a Supreme Elder’s question, and he spoke truthfully. Everything had already been exposed in the recent hand-to-hand combat, so he also disclosed the matter of the Nine Ice Divine Control Technique. Otherwise, it would arouse suspicion from these people.
"Emperor Hong Bing?"
"What is this?"
...
The Great Elder and the two Supreme Elders instantly exclaimed upon hearing Fang Yan’s words. From Fang Yan’s words, they could conjecture that Emperor Hong Bing must have been a super powerhouse from the Ancient Era. Such a title was enough to demonstrate what kind of existence Emperor Hong Bing was.
What made them even more eager was the location associated with Emperor Hong Bing. Although Fang Yan had already learned the Nine Ice Divine Control Technique, they hoped to learn from Fang Yan where the ancient site was. It would at least be good to go and see, gain some knowledge.
Fang Yan was well aware of their thoughts and smiled at the three of them, nodding to them. "The Great Elder and the two Supreme Elders, the ancient site of Emperor Hong Bing is located in the fourth layer of the Ice Abyss. If you really want to explore it, I suggest you be prepared before entering. When I went in, I relied entirely on Heavenly Grade Elixir Jade Heart Pill and Nine Suns Suppression Heaven Art to make it through."
He spoke clearly and plainly; there was no way to hide this matter. After all, the ancient site of Emperor Hong Bing was over there, and whether they could get there was their concern. Even if they went, there would be no benefits; the terrifying Demon Beast still guarded the place. If they died there, he would be very pleased.
"The fourth layer of the Ice Abyss?"
"How could it be there!"
...
Upon hearing Fang Yan’s words, the three Great Elders were stunned. None of them expected such an outcome. They knew very well what the Ice Abyss was. Although they were all Earth Immortal Realm Powerhouses and met the conditions to enter the fourth layer of the Ice Abyss, they had no confidence in their self-defense. They never imagined Fang Yan had already finished exploring it, leaving them all shocked, pondering what kind of freak Fang Yan truly was!
But regardless, if there’s time, they still want to check out the fourth layer of the Ice Abyss to see if there really is the ancient site of Emperor Hong Bing, and to experience the power of the fourth layer. If they could find some treasures, they would be top-level treasures, and such temptation was irresistible to them!
It’s important to know that at the Earth Immortal Realm level, progressing further was extremely difficult. So most Earth Immortal Realm Powerhouses were seeking their own opportunities. If they could encounter the ancient site of a mighty being, their strength might improve. This would be the key for the general Earth Immortal Realm Powerhouses to enhance their abilities.
Just as the four of them were chatting here, the Supreme Four Ancestors and the members of the Supreme Immortal Sect realized that with the departure of the Absolute Sword Ancestor, the balance had completely tipped in favor of these invaders. Their current strength was no match for the opponent, so the Supreme Four Ancestors took this time to return to the camp of the Supreme Immortal Sect and activated the Sect Protection Array.
"Buzz!"
A very special protective shield appeared, completely enveloping the Supreme Immortal Sect. At this moment, the Supreme Four Ancestors floated above the Supreme Immortal Sect, with Gang Qi emanating from their bodies, as if they were already connected to the Sect Protection Array.
In fact, this was indeed the case. Unlike other formations, the Sect Protection Array of the Supreme Immortal Sect required support from people to function, and the stronger the power, the more formidable the Sect Protection Array. Moreover, this Sect Protection Array had other unimaginable functions, and if the situation became dire, they would use their last resort.
As soon as the Sect Protection Array began to circulate, Fang Yan and the Great Elder frowned slightly. They did not expect the opponent to still resist at this moment, which took them by surprise. Watching from afar as the Sect Protection Array protected the entire sect, the Great Elder and others felt very annoyed. They clearly were no longer a match for the other side, yet they still insisted on resisting, which seemed utterly pointless!
Thinking of this, the three of them moved and rushed to a place not far from the Supreme Immortal Sect, immediately launching their respective attacks without saying a word.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
...
The three of them began to attack the Sect Protection Array of the Supreme Immortal Sect with all their strength. The shocking sounds echoed, and the protective shield of the Sect Protection Array began to fluctuate. Although it was not directly broken, anyone with clear eyes could see that this protective shield would not hold for long.
Seeing the Great Elder and the others begin their assault, Fang Yan, standing not far away, frowned slightly, feeling a sudden bad intuition. Although he didn’t know why, he decided to be cautious and ready for anything.
At this moment, the others did not have as many concerns. They flew over one after another, continuously bombarding the Sect Protection Array with various attacks, trying to break it quickly and plunder. But no one noticed that the members of the Divine Sword Sect were gathering around Fang Yan, and their attacks were not as fierce as the others...
In just less than the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, the Sect Protection Array of the Supreme Immortal Sect was on the verge of collapse. Seeing the protective shield flickering in and out, it was undoubtedly in a precarious state. Seeing such a situation, everyone’s attacks became more intense, with various lethal techniques raining down on the Sect Protection Array like raindrops.
The Supreme Four Ancestors, who were supporting the array above the Supreme Immortal Sect, had already turned pale, but at this moment, the four exchanged a look, instantly unleashing their Gang Qi and simultaneously activated the spell to reverse the control of the formation...
Indeed, this was the final plan of the Supreme Four Ancestors: to detonate the Sect Protection Array of the Supreme Immortal Sect to kill some invaders. Even if the opponents survived, only a few would remain, severely injured. At that time, the other disciples and elders of the sect could easily eliminate them.
The Supreme Four Ancestors had no choice but to make such arrangements. The invaders’ strength was too formidable. To preserve the sect, they had no other option. At least this way, there was a temporary chance to preserve the Supreme Immortal Sect. Without doing this, the sect would certainly fall today. Weighing the options, they made this decision.
The reason for not detonating earlier was to exhaust everyone’s Gang Qi. The more they consumed, the more casualties would occur when facing the detonation of the Sect Protection Array...
The Sect Protection Array, about to be breached, suddenly emitted a strange red light, and its energy began to fluctuate violently as if it were about to explode at any moment!
This is...
How can this be!
Oh no, this is bad!
...
Seeing this situation, everyone felt a warning in their hearts. They all realized that the Supreme Immortal Sect intended to detonate the array. If a formation covering an entire sect exploded, its power would undoubtedly be extraordinary, comparable to, if not surpassing, the self-destruction of an Earth Immortal Realm powerhouse!
In an instant, everyone’s expressions changed dramatically. They had no time to think about anything else and immediately used their escape secret techniques, fleeing at their fastest speed. They knew if they didn’t escape, they would certainly die. At this moment, they no longer cared about anything else.
Several figures transformed into rays of light, shooting in all directions and disappearing around the Supreme Immortal Sect in an instant. A few members of the Divine Sword Sect also followed Fang Yan, escaping in another direction. But at this moment, a deafening explosion echoed!
