Chapter 1348 Imitation of the Essence
"Are they truly evenly matched in cultivation?"
Yun Fengzhu said in a low voice, "If that's the case, then the enemies inside are similar to those spirits, and their cultivation levels will change according to our cultivation levels."
He seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and laughed, "There's no point in thinking too much. If it's just the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm, we don't need to be afraid. Everyone, I'll take my leave first."
Having said that, he took the lead and rushed towards the palace.
If the enemy were a level higher, like the gatekeeper spirit, he might not dare to go in alone. But if they were of the same level, he would not be afraid.
Seeing this, Jun Linyuan quickly set off to follow. He couldn't stand staying here any longer. Even if it was dangerous inside the palace, it was still more comfortable than staying here and being mocked by that Jiang junior.
"Junior Brother Wang, this place is dangerous, you should not follow us."
Gu Chenyin gave a brief instruction and then quickly set off to follow. With such a tremendous opportunity before them, even knowing they didn't have much of a chance, they still had to do their best to seize it.
He didn't seek the inheritance; he only wanted to obtain one or two immortal treasures, which would be enough to benefit him greatly.
As the three left, Meng Qinghong did not wait any longer and said, "Junior brother, this journey is fraught with danger. Although you are not weak, you must be extremely careful. In any situation, you must prioritize your own safety and never act recklessly."
After saying that, he transmitted his voice again and said, "Also, be careful of the others. Don't be fooled by their usual amiable manner. With such a high stake in the future, they might act rashly and do something irrational."
Jiang Han nodded in agreement: "Thank you for the reminder, Senior Brother. I know what I'm doing. If things become unmanageable, I will do my best to retreat."
He naturally knew the situation was serious. This place was isolated, unlike the outside world. What happened inside would not be known to those outside, which greatly increased the level of danger.
Fortunately, he already possessed the inheritance of an Immortal Emperor, and before figuring out whether it was incompatible with the inheritance here, he did not have much greed for it.
The purpose of this trip is solely to find treasures to solidify the Law Thunder Dragon. Any other gains would be even better, but we will not be too demanding. This will avoid too many conflicts with others and save us a lot of trouble.
Meng Qinghong gave a few more instructions, and then he and Jiang Han rushed toward the palace barrier one after the other. The moment they touched the barrier, their figures disappeared.
……
With a flash of golden light, Jiang Han's figure appeared atop a high mountain, a fierce wind whipping his clothes, the chill biting to the bone.
This place must be an independent grotto-heaven world, with rolling mountains and green forests stretching for miles.
There were even many demonic beasts of varying cultivation levels frolicking and running around in the mountains and forests, their vitality so rich that it was quite different from the deathly silence of the outside world.
Jiang Han released his divine sense to scan the area, then waved his hand to release a spiritual energy barrier, blocking the surrounding gale.
"It's another random teleportation. I just scanned this place with my divine sense, and it seems to stretch endlessly. I didn't sense the presence of the other people either. It's probably at least several million miles in circumference. If I want to find treasure, I'll probably have to find the core of this place first."
After a moment's hesitation, Jiang Han simply sat down cross-legged.
This place is too big, and it will take a lot of time to search. Before that, we might as well refine the fresh Thunderscale Horn.
He flipped his hand and took out the broken horn. Since it separated from the body of the Purple Thunder Scale, the horn had always remained several feet in size.
Its surface is covered with intricate patterns, like natural runes, with countless purple lightning crackling and swirling within, emanating a captivating aura.
A flash of light appeared, and the sword spirit walked to the thunder horn, bent down to look at it, and slowly said:
"This thunder horn is a good thing, but it's too young to be used in medicine. So let's refine it into the flying sword."
"How to do it?"
"The blood in this horn is still fresh. I can refine it into essence blood, and then use this broken horn as a body to create a true spirit."
"By simply refining the essence of true spirit into the flying sword, the Thunderclap Sword can briefly unleash the true power of a top-grade true spirit treasure."
As he spoke, the sword spirit sighed softly: "However, a replica is still a replica after all. Once the essence blood is exhausted, this essence will vanish into thin air, and then we will have to find another essence."
Jiang Han was overjoyed: "This is already very good. As long as we can survive this treasure land, that's fine. If it really doesn't work, I'll fight Jun Linyuan again and take the opportunity to get more of the Purple Thunder Scale's blood."
"Alright."
The sword spirit raised its right hand, and the severed horn flew up on its own, gray flames igniting below it, enveloping and refining it, as it said:
"However, blood is not a long-term solution. If we have the chance, we should kill that Thunder Scale and extract its essence."
Its physical body is also quite good, as is its lightning seal. If we refine them together, we might be able to create a flying sword of celestial treasure level.
A flying sword of celestial treasure level!
Jiang Han was very tempted. At present, even a flying sword at the True Spirit Treasure level was enough to support him in a head-on battle with these disciples.
If he had a flying sword of the celestial treasure level, wouldn't he have a chance to crush these disciples?
By then, he should be able to truly confront a Nascent Soul cultivator at the Great Perfection stage.
Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice, "Alright, I will find an opportunity."
……
Ten thousand miles away, in a cave atop a high mountain.
The entrance to this cave is only about ten feet long, but the space inside is extremely large, with a diameter of a thousand feet. The spiritual energy here is abundant, turning into white mist that covers the ground.
Scattered throughout the cave were animal bones, and in the center was a steaming spring called the Spirit Eye Spring, in which a black and gold ape lay half-reclined on the bank, taking a nap with its eyes closed.
Just then, a giant golden eagle flapped its wings and rushed in from one end of the cave. It landed on the ground, rolled, and transformed into the appearance of a young man, who then strode towards the spirit spring.
"Commander Ape! They're here! They've really come!"
The golden eagle exuded the aura of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. With an excited expression, it walked to the spring, flipped over, and jumped in. However, before it could even touch the water, it was kicked away by a large foot.
"Nonsense, I'm already awake. Someone must have come. Do you need to tell me?"
The black ape slowly opened its eyes, which shimmered with golden light, illuminating the entire cave.
He raised his hand and looked at it, saying in confusion, "But I can't understand why our cultivation levels are so low?"
He also exuded the cultivation level of the late-stage Nascent Soul realm, but it was more profound and imposing than that of the golden eagle.
The golden eagle rolled on the ground, grumbling as it got up, spitting silently on the ground. Then it approached and shrieked:
"This matter is simple. It must be that the person who entered the palace this time has a weak cultivation level, and we were implicated as well."
But that doesn't matter. As long as we can kill all these people, we will gain a thousand years of freedom. At that time, the core inheritance of this imperial palace will surely fall into our hands!
Upon hearing this, the black ape sneered: "Hmph, those who can gain the approval of the Immortal Palace Spirit and enter the Imperial Palace are not simple characters. Even if their cultivation is low, they are definitely not trash that can be killed at will."
