Chapter 1170 – Dashing the Immortal

Although Yang Junshan had completely handed over control of the Seven Stars Remnant Immortal Formation to them, the person who constructed the most this formation and the person who repaired it, Yang Junshan, was still far more sensitive to this Immortal Formation than normal people.

During the half a year after the formation diagram was delivered and Jiu Si was in closed-door cultivation and preparing to reach immortality, Yang Junshan sensed that the secret realm within the third formation had already been opened at least five times. Furthermore, even though Yang Junshan was currently isolated by the Stellar Cliffs, he could still feel that during this half a year, Mo Ya and Chi Xing seemed to be in contact with some of the cultivators outside the Stellar Cliffs.

Once, Yang Junshan “accidentally” found out that Mo Ya and Chi Xing’s subordinates were greeting the cultivators outside the Stellar Cliffs using honorifics like master and grandmaster. It could be seen that these people were undoubtedly alchemists, and the two Daoists had already placed all their focus on the dao halo pill.

In the end, Yang Junshan chose to ignore these matters. No matter what, he would leave the Stellar Cliffs after Daoist Jiu Si ascends to the Immortal Realm. Although the dao halo pill made him envious, Daoist Jiu Si did not treat him unfairly, furthermore, this kind of high grade dao pill was not easy to refine.

The silent night sky always displayed its boundless charm through its profoundness, but the peaceful starry sky of Stellar Cliffs was suddenly broken by a large scale phenomenon.

The dense and dense nebula Qi gathered above the Stellar Cliffs. The vast spatial fluctuations spread out to the entire Stellar Cliffs, and directly gathered the extremely far away heaven and earth spirit energy in the air above the Stellar Cliffs, and because the gathered nature spirit energy was too thick, it also formed a colorful spirit cloud in the original dense nebula. As time passed, the spatial ripples caused by the energy began to alarm the entire Nine Links Star Palace, and the spirit clouds that gathered in the sky of the Stellar Cliffs could no longer bear its weight, condensing into pure spirit rain drops that sprinkled onto the entire Stellar Cliffs.

Yang Junshan looked up at the starry sky and a drop of spirit rain landed on his palm. It actually directly seeped into his body through his skin, and was immediately assimilated by the majestic nine man true energy. With just a slight experience, he was able to perceive that this drop of spirit rain contained a source of spirit energy equivalent to a Jade Coins.

Yang Junshan knew, and even the majority of the cultivators of Stellar Cliffs knew, that Daoist Jiu Si had already started to ascend into the Immortal Realm, and this was only the beginning, but he had already instigated such a large scale phenomenon.

The starry sky had already become increasingly colorful, and due to the distortion of space on a large scale, many unusual phenomena appeared in the sky above Stellar Cliffs. For example, right now, the sky above Stellar Cliffs was clearly covered entirely by the heavy spirit clouds of heaven and earth, but now, Yang Junshan could actually see the back of this layer of thick spirit clouds through the creased space. He could even see the distant meteorites, and what was even more astonishing was that these celestial bodies seemed to have already been affected by the phenomenon of the stars, and were beginning to deviate from their original meteor trajectory.

Just as Yang Junshan was still immersed in the magnificence of the starry sky, a shooting star that passed through the outer parts of Stellar Cliffs, bringing with it a common tail of flame, streaked across the sky in a strange arc, and landed on the spirit clouds of the starry sky above the Stellar Cliffs, causing colored sparks to splash out, causing the gathered cultivators of the Stellar Cliffs to cry out in alarm.

This was obviously a meteor that was affected by the strange phenomenon of the starry sky that was triggered by Daoist Jiu Si rushing into the Immortal Realm. However, within the boundless starry sky, there were numerous such randomly flying meteors.

As if confirming Yang Junshan’s guess, the meteor just now was like the beginning of a meteor shower, and after that, there were several more meteors that apparently changed their trajectory in the space and flew towards the Stellar Cliffs, but without exception, they were all blocked by the gathering spirit clouds in the sky.

But very quickly, something even more terrifying happened. Even though the sky above was covered by a thick layer of spirit clouds, because of the warping of space, everyone was able to see the scene behind the spirit clouds. And at this time, after some of the meteors had deviated their trajectory, some of the larger and larger bodies were also moving towards the Stellar Cliffs.

The spirit clouds gathered above the Stellar Cliffs could withstand the impact of the meteors, but how could they stop the approach of these gigantic celestial bodies?

Just as most of the cultivators in the Stellar Cliffs were panicking, a biting cold light suddenly erupted from somewhere in the Stellar Cliffs, the invisible energy that rushed towards the sky directly shattered the gathering spirit clouds in the air, the twisted space was even flattened, and the huge heavenly bodies that were attracted to the sky returned back to their original trajectory, the calamity that appeared once seen, was eliminated.

However, at this moment, the gathered cultivators at the Star Cliff had long forgotten the danger that had caused their hearts to palpitate just a moment ago. At this moment, all of their attention was focused on the figure that had suddenly appeared in midair.

He was completely surrounded by a type of spiritual light that Yang Junshan was extremely familiar with. This kind of aura was extremely similar to the spirit cleansing aura he had refined back then. Although it was not as pure as the spirit cleansing energy, it was still many times thicker.

“Six hundred years of bitter cultivation. The road to longevity is right in front of me!”

A low voice suddenly came from Daoist Jiu Si’s mouth.

When Yang Junshan heard the sound, he saw a ray of light appearing above Daoist Jiu Si’s head. Yang Junshan wanted to carefully check the light, but even Dianthus was unable to check the bottom of the light, only that the moment the light appeared, the spiritual aura around Jiu Si’s body started to gather towards the light like a moth to the flame.

Yang Junshan immediately understood that the bright light should be the location of the Jiu Si Dao Fruit. Now that Dao Fruit was going to be an Innate, the moment it turned into a Pure Yang Primordial Spirit, it would be able to destroy the path of immortality, and from today onwards, there would be another immortal on the road of longevity.

However, at this time, a change suddenly occurred. The light became bigger and bigger, brighter and brighter, and the aura it was brewing became more and more terrifying. Suddenly, a loud roar came from the depths of the starry sky, transforming into a sound wave that rushed towards Stellar Cliffs.

“Old fool Jiu Si, you want to become an Immortal? You’re wishful thinking!”

A single point of light lit up in the depths of the starry sky and in an instant, it had actually pierced through many layers of spatial barriers. A seven-story pagoda appeared in midair, directly breaking through the domain of spirit clouds, spirit light, and space that surrounded Jiu Si. The moment it appeared above Daoist Jiu Si’s head, the rings of light faded away from the body of the pagoda, not only wanting to suppress Daoist Jiu Si’s undergoing transformation, it also wanted to isolate the spirit energy around him.

Amidst the exclamations of the cultivators of Stellar Cliffs, Daoist Jiu Si’s gentle voice suddenly rang out: “Fellow Daoist, you and I have known each other for many years. This old man has just stepped into the Immortal Realm, wouldn’t you have expected me to do this?”

Just as she finished her sentence, another object rose from within that brilliant light. This time, Yang Junshan could see it clearly, it was Daoist Jiu Si’s personal treasure, the Sky Crossing Ruler of Jiu Si.

When Yang Junshan saw the Ruler of the Sky, he also felt that it was an illusion. It was as if the person who had just spoke was not Jiu Si himself, but rather that the voice had come from that blinding light.

Yang Junshan was startled. As it turned out, Daoist Jiu Si had long since finished transforming the dao fruit inture Yang Primordial Spirit, and had activated the Immortal Path long ago. All he lacked was to take the last step of his own initiative, and the reason why he did not take that last step was so that he could lure out the opponent that was hidden in the shadows.

Sure enough, at the same time that Yang Junshan saw through the clues, the Seventh Pagoda’s Patriarch also understood the scheme of Daoist Jiu Si.

However, this time, it was too late for the Seven Pagoda’s founder to dodge. He suddenly raised the Ruler of Heaven, striking the body of the pagoda in one go, instantly dispersing the spiritual light surrounding the treasure and cutting into a quarter of the treasure’s body. When the Ruler of Heaven was retracted, cracks began to appear on the pagoda’s body, one after another.

At the top of the pagoda, the Seven Pagoda’s founder staggered out from the void. The damage to his life treasure directly injured his mind, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

“Immortal-ranked divine abilities? You actually managed to condense a lifeblood Immortal magic first!”

The Seven Pagoda’s Ancestral Master cried out in fear. The seven levels pagoda of his personal treasure was a middle ranked daoyin apparatus, but it was damaged by a lower ranked daoyin apparatus of Daoist Jiu Si’s. How could this not cause him to be filled with anger and shock?

After the Ruler of Skies’s attack was successful, he drew a line in the surroundings. A huge spatial crack was opened in the space that was originally sealed by the seven-level pagoda, and the spirit energy that was locked up in the outside world once again gathered towards Daofather Jiu Si, who was below the pagoda, like a flood that had broken through a dike.

“Idiot, if I were to use my Lifeless Immortal Technique to break through the void, then that strike would have cut off two of your pagodas and not just damage your magic treasure!”

Although he had heavily injured the Seven Pagoda’s Ancestor Master, in reality, he did not have the time to beat this dog down to the bottom of the lake. He still had to take the last step in his journey to immortality, and as long as the Seven Pagoda Elder was unable to stop him, he would still be the first to enter the Immortal Realm.

However, not only did the Seven Pagoda’s founder not retreat tactfully, he instead shouted towards the depths of the starry sky, “Old fool, so what if you can dodge this old man’s challenge? Your opponent isn’t just this old man! If the three of you don’t appear now, when will you be?”

However, Yang Junshan also faintly felt that something was wrong. At this moment, he also felt that the seven pagodas’ initial attack seemed to be reckless, but now, it seemed that it was not the case, but because of the support provided, the seven pagodas’ ancestor was actually extremely confident.

In fact, it was not only Yang Junshan who thought of this, even Daoist Jiu Si, who was in the midst of reversing the Innate Pure Yang Primordial Spirit’s power, was stunned. If the Seven Pagoda Martial Ancestor was not the only one blocking his path to immortality, then his attempt to break through to the Immortal Realm would be very dangerous.
