"It shouldn't be as serious as you think, right?" Daoist Yuan Qing shook his head slightly and looked at the place where Xiao Hua disappeared.
"Maybe it's not that serious, but we have to think so."
Hai Hongzi didn't give up his position and explained, "If we don't get involved, even if we can't get the Green Abyss Dragon Saliva, we can still come back alive from the Jade Pavilion Conference. But if we get involved, it'll be a dead end!"
Hong Songzi looked at Daoist Yuan Qing. Both of their eyes flashed with helplessness. Hai Hongzi was right. Xiao Hua was certainly a great help, but at the same time, he was also a great enemy. The disadvantages of cooperating with Xiao Hua outweighed the advantages.
"Let's go …" Daoist Yuan Qing waved his hand and said, "According to our previous discussion, after entering the Jade Mountain, we'll immediately activate the magic treasure refined by Daoist Hai Hongzi. We'll find each other and then join hands to search for the treasure."
Hong Songzi and Hai Hongzi nodded and the three of them flew into the dragon gate.
What they didn't know was that behind the layers of red clouds, Kong Hongwu was also looking at the disappearing Xiao Hua with confusion and thought, "This Xiao Hua … how can he be so daring?
Even Daoist Qing Xu didn't dare to enter, but he dared to come?
Could it be that there are secrets among these thousands of cultivators that I don't know?
Humph, since you're here, I'll let you know how powerful I am. If I can get the trace of the Grandmist Ancestor from you, it'll be a great contribution! "
Kong Hongwu's figure also disappeared.
At the foot of the Jade Mountain, the number of cultivators gathered became fewer and fewer. The twenty percent of cultivators who could resist the temptation had already left. The remaining cultivators were just hesitating and waiting. Eventually, more and more cultivators couldn't resist the temptation and rushed into the dragon gate. Only a few hundred Gold Core cultivators and a dozen early Nascent Soul cultivators remained.
However, when another thunderclap came from the red clouds, the huge dragon gate began to shake and gradually shrink. The last group of cultivators couldn't resist anymore. They all rushed into the dragon gate and waited until the last Gold Core cultivator disappeared. "Kacha …" Like glass breaking, the dragon gate cracked out of thin air. The dragon gate, which had shrunk to a few feet, was broken into dozens of pieces and then melted into golden liquid that fell into the void …
When Xiao Hua flew into the Dragon Gate, a powerful suction force was generated from all around the Dragon Gate. In an instant, a passage formed by nine-colored clouds appeared in front of his eyes. The surface of the passage was a layer of clouds that kept spiraling inward in a spiral shape. In the depths of the clouds, there were still some faint inscriptions flashing. The Noble Spirit roared and boiled out from the gaps of the clouds. The inscriptions were born in the flickering inscriptions, carrying Xiao Hua's figure and constantly rushing into the depths.
"Huh?"
Xiao Hua felt the pressure on his body and the abnormality of the passage in the clouds. He couldn't help but be a little surprised. "The pressure on my body seems to be the heavy pressure of the transmission formation. Moreover, the rotation of the passage in the clouds is somewhat similar to the soul cultivator's transmission formation. Could it be that this dragon gate is a transmission formation for Confucian cultivators?
Or could it be that the Confucian cultivators of the Hidden Immortal Continent don't have transmission formations, but these transmission formations are not known to ordinary Confucian cultivators? "
While thinking to himself, Xiao Hua tried to release his soulsense. Sure enough, the clouds flashed with an intense tearing force. Xiao Hua's soulsense was torn to shreds within a few breaths of time. Xiao Hua didn't dare to increase his soulsense for fear that he would destroy this transportation channel. He didn't know where he would end up.
This transmission formation seemed to be very far away. Xiao Hua stayed in this passage for the time it took to eat a meal. During this time, there was no one in front of the passage. There were also no other cultivators chasing behind the passage. Presumably, every Taoist cultivator who entered the dragon gate would have such a legendary passage!
"Wu …" Suddenly, in the passage not far in front of Xiao Hua, there was a whimper of wind. A dot of orange light suddenly appeared. Then, the passage in the clouds in front of Xiao Hua shrank towards this dot of light as if it was being pulled. Xiao Hua's figure also rushed towards this dot of light.
Perhaps Xiao Hua was shrinking, or perhaps the dot of light was expanding. When Xiao Hua flew in front of the dot of light, that dot of light had already turned into a several zhang large light curtain. Xiao Hua's whole body flashed with golden light. When he swept with his soul sense, he was immediately bounced back by the light curtain. Although the inscriptions on the light curtain were tumbling, the aura it revealed was so docile that Xiao Hua couldn't feel any discomfort.
"Pa …" With a soft and crisp sound, Xiao Hua crashed into the light curtain. The scene in front of his eyes overflowed, as if he had passed through several small worlds. When Xiao Hua's figure landed, he looked around and unconsciously frowned again.
At this time, Xiao Hua was standing in a low valley. He was surrounded by several zhang cliffs. High up in the sky, several chi large clouds condensed into a vortex. The vortex gradually shrank, and one by one, the inscriptions disappeared alternately.
There weren't any special spirit fruits or spirit herbs on the nearby cliffs. There were only a number of dark green things that crookedly covered the entire cliff.
At the bottom of the cliff, there was a deep pool. There were many small waterfalls around the deep pool. At the foot of the mountain, there were many small streams flowing from the cracks in the cliff and converging into the deep pool.
The deep pool was dark green, and a chill mixed with rich World's Yuan Qi rushed into Xiao Hua's mouth and nose.
At the edge of the deep pool, there were layers of needle-like leaves covering the ground. If he wasn't mistaken, they should be dark green things that fell down.
Xiao Hua looked around and was a little surprised. He tried to release his soul sense. After exploring for a while, Xiao Hua finally had some understanding of the surroundings.
The entire valley was sealed by a layer of restriction. This restriction was broken, and Xiao Hua's soul sense couldn't be considered complete. Moreover, where the restriction was intact, Xiao Hua's soul sense was suppressed and difficult to penetrate.
However, where the restriction was broken, Xiao Hua's soul sense could vaguely penetrate and he could see the spirit herbs growing high up in the cliff.
"This is a restriction!"
Xiao Hua already understood and thought to himself, "It's no wonder that even though the Heaven Earth Origin Qi here is so dense, there aren't any spirit herbs growing here. Only I, Xiao Hua, will be able to break through this restriction and escape to pick spirit fruits and search for treasures!"
"But, how can I break this restriction?"
Xiao Hua slowly flew towards the stone cliff, slowly searching. "This is the Jasper Pavilion Gathering, a formation personally set up by the Star Lord Hall. It should be able to trap a late Nascent Soul stage cultivator. I can't not be cautious."
Near the cliff, Xiao Hua's soul sense swept over and he didn't find anything strange. He touched the hard and cold stone wall with his hand, but he still didn't find anything.
After Xiao Hua finished looking at the four stone cliffs, his gaze once again landed on the jade-green deep pool.
This pool couldn't be considered big. It was even smaller than the cold pool in Yellow Flower Ridge. However, the cold air was twice as strong as the cold pool in Yellow Flower Ridge.
"Huh?
This deep pool can absorb Divine Sense … "Xiao Hua's Divine Sense swept over the pool and he was immediately surprised. His eyes flashed with a trace of greed. After thinking for a moment, he plucked a few withered leaves from his space and casually threw them into the pool. The moment these withered leaves landed on the water surface, they only created ripples and the entire leaf instantly sank into the pool.
"Weak Water?"
Xiao Hua heard of this water that even leaves couldn't bear. He couldn't help but shout, "I'm rich!"
Of course, the incomparably fierce Innate Primordial Water in the eyes of others was absorbed into Xiao Hua's Clear Water Bottle. What could this insignificant Weak Water count for?
Perhaps in Xiao Hua's eyes, it could only be a treasure that could make him open his eyes.
However, without waiting for Xiao Hua to land in midair, a chilly wind suddenly appeared and very strangely scraped the ground. A few needle-like leaves were lifted up by the chilly wind. "Wuuu … …" The needle-like leaves streaked across the air, unexpectedly producing an even more strange whimpering sound. After the whimpering sound passed, a mournful sound rang out. Looking again at the surrounding needle-like leaves of the deep pool, it was as if they were being grabbed by a big hand, flying up into the air in an extremely orderly fashion.
The needle-like leaves were gone, exposing the ground beside the pool. At this time, the ground was densely engraved with tiny inscriptions that looked like ants. These inscriptions had begun to squirm like living ants. Wisps of Noble Aura blew down rapidly with the sound of the wind. When these Noble Aura passed through the needle-like leaves, many of them were absorbed by the needle-like leaves.
In just the blink of an eye, the cold air in the pool surged up even more. The needle-like leaves also swelled up to more than ten inches. Now, the leaves revealed their original malevolence. They were actually sawtooth shaped imperial tools.
On these imperial tools, there were thin holes that couldn't be seen. In between the holes, there were layers of inscriptions. The mournful whimpering sound came from these holes. The inscriptions were still absorbing the Awe-Inspiring Qi. Countless imperial tools continued to swell up.
"The entire valley is completely filled with these imperial tools. How much effort is needed to create this?"
Xiao Hua's gaze swept over, and he was slightly surprised. After all, this imperial array was not only particularly fine, but also covered a large area. He didn't know how much effort it took to create it.
Sure enough, as the whirlwind in the valley grew stronger, the inscriptions also began to flicker. The wind borrowed the power of the inscriptions, and the inscriptions aided the might of the wind. The countless imperial tools quickly trembled in the whirlwind. Especially as the whirlwind rose up layer by layer, the inscriptions on the originally ordinary cliff also revealed inscriptions. These inscriptions were different from the inscriptions on the side of the pool. As the whirlwind blew, the inscriptions actually began to chant. Thick Awe-Inspiring Qi quickly descended from the sky and rushed into the whirlwind in the valley.
Not only that, but what surprised Xiao Hua the most was that when the cold air in the pool rushed into the whirlwind, countless imperial tools began to condense white frost. A kind of austere killing intent gradually emerged from the whirlwind and quickly diffused throughout the entire valley …
The cold wind cut the face, and the frost pierced the heart. Xiao Hua nodded inwardly. The imperial array in the valley had already become like this in just a few breaths. If it was activated, how terrible would it be?
Moreover, this imperial array had sealed off the entire valley. If a Dao Sect cultivator below the early stage of the Gold Core realm fell into this array, it would be difficult for them to escape. Even if they could forcefully break out of the array, their cultivation would be greatly damaged.
