A vast, endless white mountain range lay under a sky from which large quantities of white snowflakes drifted down. The temperature was frighteningly low.
A deafening roar sounded, accompanied by a huge red light that flared, shaking the ground violently. White snowflakes danced in the wind.
Deep within the mountain range, four Chaos Beasts had gathered, with Li among them. A pile of shredded flesh lay on the ground. They had triggered a restriction and were attacked by it. A King Beast was severely wounded and then possessed by an Outer Realm Demonic Cultivator at the Daluo Golden Immortal stage. It was instantly killed by them.
"Be careful," Li instructed, his tone heavy. "Besides the restrictions, we must also be wary of Outer Realm Demonic Cultivators."
"Yes, Master Li," the three Chaos Beasts replied.
"Let's speed up! We're almost at our destination," Li commanded, walking forward. The three Chaos Beasts quickly followed, disappearing into the snowy mountains.
A continuous mountain range stretched out, where the void was filled with fine golden threads, like a spiderweb, sealing off a section of the world.
Ripples appeared in a certain part of the void, revealing a huge opening from which Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan flew out. Their expressions were solemn, as if they had encountered something terrifying.
Wang Changsheng's expression turned serious as he saw the dense golden threads.
"Threads of Time!" Wang Changsheng exclaimed, frowning.
Even though Wang Ruyan had mastered the Law of Space, she couldn't move freely here. Some areas had powerful restrictions, and forcibly breaking through space would lead to great trouble. They triggered another powerful restriction, and Wang Ruyan used the Law of Space to help them escape.
Wang Changsheng took out a map to check, saying, "The place marked in gold is right ahead."
Wang Ruyan activated her Lihuo True Eyes to investigate, then nodded and said, "That's right, it's just ahead."
They landed on the ground and walked forward.
A short while later, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan appeared outside a giant valley surrounded by mountains on three sides. Not a blade of grass grew inside the valley. To the left of the giant valley was a dense black forest, and to the right was a barren wilderness, exactly as described on the map.
Wang Changsheng released a giant ape puppet beast at the Taiyi Golden Immortal stage. He formed a hand seal, and the puppet beast strode into the valley. As soon as it entered the valley, the world changed color. A large number of silver light dots emerged in the void, like countless stars, and huge meteorites streaked across the sky, crashing down towards the giant ape puppet beast.
The giant ape puppet beast's right fist glowed brightly with golden light. It punched out, colliding with a meteorite, and a muffled thud sounded. The giant ape puppet beast was sent flying backward, crashing heavily onto the ground, shattering into pieces and becoming a pile of scrap metal.
"The Great Heavenly Cycle Star Array! One of the Ten Immortal Restrictions!" Wang Changsheng exclaimed, frowning deeply.
The puppet beast at the Taiyi Golden Immortal stage was destroyed in a single blow, demonstrating the immense power of this array.
"If we break open that stone wall, we should be able to break the array," Wang Ruyan said, pointing to a stone wall on the left.
"Old rules: I'll go in to break the array, and you, my dear wife, will provide support from outside," Wang Changsheng said. He strode into the valley, as huge meteorites streaked across the sky and crashed down towards him.
Before these huge meteorites could fall, they stopped in mid-air, as if frozen in place. Huge meteorites appeared out of thin air, but before they could fall, they were all instantly immobilized by spatial power.
Wang Changsheng arrived before an uneven stone wall. The silver light dots in the void emitted dazzling light, and a huge meteorite, shimmering with silver light, appeared and hurtled towards Wang Changsheng. A ripple in the void formed, and a huge spatial vortex appeared. The huge meteorite plunged into the opening, which instantly healed.
The next moment, a huge opening appeared in the distant void, from which a huge meteorite flew out, crashed onto the ground, and dust billowed. The Great Heavenly Cycle Star Array was indeed powerful, but without an immortal controlling it, there were many loopholes to exploit.
Wang Changsheng moved his fists and smashed them onto the stone wall. A huge explosion sounded. The stone wall shook, and large amounts of rubble rolled down, revealing a thick silver light screen that emitted strong stellar fluctuations. His fists burst forth with dazzling blue light as he smashed them onto the silver light screen. The silver light screen shattered into pieces, revealing a huge cave.
Wang Changsheng strode in. Not long after, he reached the end, finding himself in a cavern roughly an acre in size. In the center of the cavern lay a humanoid skeleton draped in a cyan robe. Its legs were missing, numerous cracks were visible on its ribcage and skull, and a cyan storage bracelet was on its right hand.
Wang Changsheng released his divine sense. His right hand emitted a black halo, which swiftly swept over the humanoid skeleton. Over a dozen thin cyan threads flew out from the skeleton, heading straight for Wang Changsheng. The cyan threads were remnant souls!
After a Daluo Golden Immortal's soul becomes strong enough, it can transform into a crystal, making possession easier. Even without a suitable physical body, the soul can exist independently for a longer time.
Wang Changsheng formed a hand seal, and a powerful binding force emerged, stopping the dozen or so cyan threads in mid-air.
"Fellow Daoist, please don't kill me," the cyan threads pleaded in human language. "I know many secrets, and I can tell you all of them."
"If you were truly sincere, you should have done this from the start," Wang Changsheng sneered. "You intended to possess me, didn't you! If I want to know secrets, can't I find them myself?" His right hand emitted a black halo, which swiftly swept over the dozen or so cyan threads. All but one of the cyan threads disintegrated.
Wang Changsheng flashed forward, grabbed the remaining cyan thread, and performed a soul-searching secret technique.
"Xing Guangzi!" A thoughtful expression appeared on Wang Changsheng's face.
Xing Guangzi had cultivation at the mid-Daluo Golden Immortal stage. He had cultivated an immortal body and possessed a top-grade immortal artifact. He and a friend entered the Immortal Chaos Tomb to seek treasures. While discovering a major treasure, they encountered a King Beast. He took advantage of the chaos to snatch the treasure and flee, seeking a place to heal. His physical body was severely damaged, and only his soul remained. He was preparing to possess a treasure seeker, but he hadn't expected Wang Changsheng to comprehend the Law of Soul, leaving his soul nowhere to hide.
Wang Changsheng's five fingers closed, and the cyan thread disintegrated, extinguishing Xing Guangzi's existence forever.
He released a black halo, which swept through the entire cavern, finding no abnormalities. Only then did he approach the humanoid corpse and remove the cyan storage bracelet. With a gentle flick of his wrist, a flash of cyan light swept across, and a large pile of items appeared on the ground.
Wang Changsheng's gaze fell upon a sparkling miniature archway about a foot in size.
"A mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure! You've struck it rich," Qing Xuan's voice sounded.
"A mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure?" Wang Changsheng exclaimed, filled with both surprise and joy. He had soul-searched Xing Guangzi, who only knew that this item was a major treasure, but he hadn't expected it to be a mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure. He could clearly feel that this item emitted strong spatial fluctuations, and it was indeed a spatial-type mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure.
"Hmm, it's rare for it to be preserved so perfectly," Qing Xuan said. "It must be related to space. As for its specific use, you can study it later when you return!"
