Chapter 3927

This place appeared to be the cave dwelling of a Golden Immortal cultivator, protected by a Nine-Serpent Soul Lock restriction. Only those with sufficiently powerful divine sense could break through it, which explained why the Chaos Beasts were helpless.

Wang Yingjie's divine sense fully spread, and he detected no restrictions. He walked over and reached for the giant golden axe.

He found the golden axe incredibly heavy, and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes. A dazzling five-colored spiritual light shone from his body, and this time, he successfully lifted the golden axe.

"A heavy-type immortal artifact, suitable for body cultivators," Wang Yingjie remarked. "This doesn't seem like an immortal artifact master's cave dwelling, with only one mid-grade immortal artifact."

Wang Qingshan walked towards the green jade shelf, picked up a green jade slip, and probed it with his divine sense. Wang Qingling and the other four also came over to examine the contents of the jade slips.

These jade slips recorded various methods for body tempering, including spirit wine, formations, immortal pills, immortal fruits, and more. There were also some observations about the Chaos Continent. The most valuable item was a cultivation technique, the "Heavenly Fiend Forging Spirit Immortal Scripture." This body-tempering technique could be cultivated from the True Immortal stage up to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage, and was said to have been created by a Grand Unity Golden Immortal.

It seemed the cave dwelling's owner had gone out to confront the Chaos Beasts when they attacked Sky-Insight City. It was unknown whether they were killed or escaped.

Wang Qingshan put away the jade slips and the giant golden axe, then walked out.

Standing on the mountaintop, they could see about half of Sky-Insight City. However, due to the restrictions, their view was not clear, and they had no idea where immortal medicines or immortal fruits might be found.

Wang Qingshan and the other four walked down the mountain at a leisurely pace.

A rumbling sound of thunder echoed. A massive thundercloud appeared in the distant sky. Lightning flashed and thunder roared, as thick bolts of lightning tore through the sky, striking downwards.

"A Chaos Beast is undergoing tribulation! It must be attempting to reach the Golden Immortal stage." Wang Yingjie said with a frown.

Any living creature attempting to reach the Golden Immortal stage must undergo tribulation; only by passing the lightning tribulation can they advance to Golden Immortal.

"Let's go around it!" Wang Qingshan suggested. There were still many Chaos Beasts remaining in Sky-Insight City. Golden Immortal cultivators could live for up to ten million years, and Chaos Beasts at the Golden Immortal stage could survive even longer. If the restrictions were intact, there shouldn't be any Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage Chaos Beasts in Sky-Insight City.

Wang Yingjie nodded, and the five quickly descended the mountain, appearing on a desolate street. The ground was uneven and overgrown with weeds, and several broken flying swords lay on the ground, their spiritual light dim. They walked along the street. There were many dilapidated buildings on both sides, and they could see numerous plaques. Judging by the names on them, this area seemed to be for selling immortal medicines. They entered some shops but found no immortal medicines or immortal fruits, speculating these had been eaten by Chaos Beasts.

"Oh, Murong family cultivators! To the southeast." Wang Yingjie let out a soft exclamation and frowned.

With the help of the Golden Dragon Pearl, he had discovered three cultivators of unknown cultivation levels. From the patterns on their clothes, they were clearly Murong family cultivators. The Murong family was the most powerful force in the Sky-Dawn Sea, bar none.

"Let's go around them! Don't let them spot us," Wang Qingshan said.

Wang Yingjie nodded, and they headed down another street, in the opposite direction from where the Murong family cultivators were, making an encounter unlikely.

Half a day later, they arrived at a bluestone plaza. In the center of the plaza stood a giant green tower, its surface covered in vines. Above the entrance, a golden plaque hung, bearing the three large characters "Sky-Insight Tower." The tower gate was open, but it was unknown if any cultivators had been there before.

"I'll go inside and take a look," Wang Yingjie said, casting a protective barrier on himself as he walked towards Sky-Insight Tower. He entered Sky-Insight Tower, while Wang Qingshan and the other four waited quietly outside.

After most of a quarter-hour, Wang Yingjie came out, shaking his head. "Someone got here first. This seems to have been a shop. Everything inside was taken long ago, and it's covered in dust, suggesting no one has entered for a long time."

"Let's look elsewhere," Wang Qingshan said. "It would be great if we could find a map of Sky-Insight City's layout."

They did not linger there and left the bluestone plaza. Along the way, they found many human skeletons; the storage bracelets on them had all been taken. They also found some Chaos Beast carcasses.

Two days later, they stopped outside a gigantic valley surrounded by mountains on three sides. The valley floor was barren, and they could see two massive beast skeletons. Beneath the skeletons, two five-colored crystal cores were visible. Many of the bones were fractured, with incredibly smooth cuts, seemingly caused by sharp weapons.

Wang Yingjie activated a True Immortal stage humanoid puppet and controlled it to walk into the valley. As soon as the humanoid puppet entered the valley, a piercing sword cry rang out. A large expanse of sharp sword qi appeared out of nowhere, continuously striking the humanoid puppet, producing muffled clanging sounds.

The humanoid puppet strode forward, not quickly. Upon reaching the valley interior, they could see a cave entrance several zhang in size. A nine-colored light barrier blocked its path, and numerous flying sword patterns could be seen on the surface of the nine-colored light barrier. The nine-colored light barrier glowed intensely, and an immensely large nine-colored sword light swept out, cleaving the humanoid puppet in half.

Wang Qingshan frowned and said, "It seems this is a Golden Immortal cultivator's cave dwelling; even a True Immortal stage puppet beast can't withstand it."

"I'll give it a try!" Wang Yingjie said.

His body shone with a dazzling five-colored spiritual light, and a thick five-colored battle armor materialized to protect his entire body. Wang Yingjie walked into the valley, and a large amount of sword qi swept out, striking towards him. He quickly summoned a green shield to block in front of him. With a muffled sound, the green shield shattered into pieces.

Wang Yingjie then summoned a small five-colored umbrella, which cast down a thick five-colored light barrier, covering his body. Dense sword qi continuously struck the five-colored light barrier, producing muffled sounds, and the five-colored light barrier dented inwards.

Wang Yingjie continued deeper into the valley. The nine-colored light barrier glowed brightly again, and a massive nine-colored sword light swept out, precisely striking the five-colored light barrier from the umbrella. With a muffled sound, the five-colored light barrier shattered. The nine-colored sword light then struck his five-colored battle armor, which also shattered immediately. The nine-colored sword light finally hit Wang Yingjie's body, producing a muffled sound, and a shallow bloody mark appeared on his skin.

His fists moved, and two giant five-colored fists shot out. They struck the nine-colored light barrier, producing two muffled sounds, and the nine-colored light barrier dented inwards. Soon, an even larger nine-colored sword light swept out, striking towards Wang Yingjie.

A deafening dragon roar echoed. A white flood dragon lunged towards the nine-colored light barrier; Wang Qingjing and Wang Qingling had made their move. The white flood dragon spewed a beam of white light, which landed on the nine-colored light barrier. The nine-colored light barrier quickly froze, and its massive claw struck the nine-colored light barrier.

With a muffled sound, the nine-colored light barrier shattered into pieces, revealing a huge cave. The white flood dragon transformed into a white light and flew inside, with Wang Yingjie following closely behind.

Inside the cave dwelling, which was about a mu in size, a faint spiritual light emanated from the stone walls. In a corner, there was a hundred-zhang large formation. In the center of the formation, a golden, glittering flying sword was plunged, radiating astonishing immortal energy. The hilt of the golden flying sword was a lifelike Qilin head, and the three small characters "Golden Qilin Sword" were engraved on its blade.

"A mid-grade immortal artifact!" Wang Yingjie said in surprise.

In the bottom left corner, there was a green wooden shelf, with dozens of jade slips placed on it. Their divine senses entered them, examining the contents of the jade slips.

"Nine Swords of Immortal Slaying!" Wang Yingjie's expression hardened as he held a golden jade slip in his hand.
