Cultivation Starts from Killing Pigs-Chapter 334 - 295: Origins of the Buddha Corpse, Fallen Immortal Treasure_2

Chapter 334: Chapter 295: Origins of the Buddha Corpse, Fallen Immortal Treasure_2

Zhang Kui remained silent.

He hadn’t anticipated that the remnants of the ancient battlefield at Fallen Immortal Mountain would far exceed his imagination. A starship could be easily shattered, and even those who had achieved enlightenment were not spared from death.

What exactly was it?

He looked up towards the clouds, and under the Tongyou Skill, he only saw a kaleidoscope of radiant colors, unable to see anything clearly. Within just a few seconds, his eyeballs shattered once more.

"Sect Leader, we..."

Yuan Huang hesitated. Despite having made bold claims at the foot of the mountain, it was clear that this was not a Forbidden Land they could truly touch. If Zhang Kui charged in recklessly and died, the Kaiyuan Divine Dynasty would likely crumble in an instant.

"Let me try again..."

Zhang Kui was unwilling to give up. A cloud of black smoke rose from his body and he disappeared into the earth.

"The Nether Soil Sarcophagus?"

Yuan Huang recognized it, having even guided Zhang Kui to the sarcophagus lid, but he didn’t hold out much hope.

It was originally used for exploring the Underworld, but now, with the more practical Dragonbone Divine Ship, he had almost forgotten about the Nether Soil Sarcophagus.

However, deep underground, Zhang Kui saw a different scene through his eyes.

The strongest capability of the Nether Soil Sarcophagus, apart from the Divine Speed Earth Escape, was its unique dark vision, which laid bare all that was underground.

Zhang Kui astonishingly found that when he used the Tongyou Skill from within the Nether Soil Sarcophagus, the suppression on spiritual arts vanished instantly, and the interior of Fallen Immortal Mountain was fully revealed.

Starships were buried inside Fallen Immortal Mountain!

They were of a type he had never seen before, unimaginably large, with a surface that appeared like colorful glaze, and above it, a crystalline palace that extended at least several thousand meters in length.

A portion of the palace protruded from the mountain peak, which should be the source of that kaleidoscopic radiance. Unfortunately, the ship’s prow was also shattered, and in front of it rose a copper mirror as tall as a mountain, its surface smashed into a huge hole.

Both objects were extraordinary. Even though they were in ruins and so far apart, he could feel the overwhelming aura entwining them, forming a strange, subtle balance.

Immortal Crystals...

Zhang Kui’s eyes glinted with desire; he recognized the material of the mountain-top palace, the same as the Immortal Court’s bricks and stones seen in the Silent Heaven Illusion, also the source of the Immortal Banner’s power, and essential to the Golden Soul Suppressing Tower.

No wonder the outside formed a broken Space Domain.

Yet, this Ancient Bronze Mirror was not ordinary either; its suppression might be the reason the fragmentary Space Domain didn’t spread over all of Fallen Immortal Mountain.

But then he frowned.

The Ancient Bronze Mirror was connected to the Dream Mirror, originally creating its own Domain, clearly an enemy of the Infinite Immortal Dynasty, yet different from those relying on altars of the Starry Sky Evil Gods. What was its origin?

Based on the current clues, the Infinite Immortal Dynasty faced more than one force of alien invaders.

The collapse and distortion of the Immortal Court might not have boded well for the opposition. What, after all, transpired in ancient times?

Zhang Kui took a deep breath and attempted to maneuver the Nether Soil Sarcophagus closer.

At that moment, he was still thousands of meters away from the odd starship and the bronze mirror, and only by relying on the unique vision of the Nether Soil Sarcophagus could he see their general appearances.

But as he approached, the two Divine Objects grew larger, and gradually the Nether Soil Sarcophagus felt a terrifying pressure.

Boom!

Zhang Kui’s chest suddenly burst open, and he hurriedly retreated, gasping as he slowly healed.

No wonder even passing Buddhas were envious; despite having the Nether Soil Sarcophagus, he couldn’t get close.

This thing might very well be the most precious treasure left from the ancient war on Celestial Essence Star.

Not to mention the oddities that might lurk inside the Starship Palace, it wasn’t possible to approach it, let alone enter.

Yet he was unwilling to return empty-handed from a treasure mountain, so he maneuvered the Nether Soil Sarcophagus around the outer perimeter of the starship to investigate.

He began to suspect deeply that the Nether Soil Sarcophagus might be related to the ancient Buddha’s starship.

The reasoning was simple: neither the Glazed Starship nor the Ancient Bronze Mirror could be approached by the Nether Soil Sarcophagus.

The ancestor of the Qi Dynasty was likely a Mahayana-level cultivator, and his Taoist skills were certainly not as profound as Zhang Kui’s. It was very possible that he found the sarcophagus lid after it was blown away from a starship explosion near Fallen Immortal Mountain.

Of course, this was merely a conjecture.

Nevertheless, after circling the Glazed Starship, Zhang Kui’s eyes lit up.

The copper mirror and glazed starship were hard to approach, but many small fragments had scattered from both, some as small as a fist, others as large as a millstone.

Separated from the terrifying force field of the starship and the ancient mirror, these fragments emitted only faint vibrations, like the crystal stones left after refining the Immortal Banner.

Seen from the Nether Soil Sarcophagus, these fragments were like little stars shining brightly in the pitch-black soil and rock. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

A smile crept onto Zhang Kui’s lips, "It hasn’t been a wasted trip after all, enough to gather a whole fleet..."

Outside, halfway up the mountain, snow covered everything, the cold biting. Yuan Huang was beginning to feel anxious.

This place was covered by the broken Space Domain, the Divine Path network was ineffective, even communication was impossible.

Zhang Kui had been below for two hours now, having hurriedly emerged once just to assure them of his safety before diving back in.

What lay beneath?

He worried if something had gone wrong in such a long time...

In his midst of apprehension, Zhang Kui emerged with a puff of black smoke, his face beaming with unconcealed joy.

Yuan Huang breathed a sigh of relief, smiling, "What good news does the Sect Leader bring?"

Zhang Kui laughed heartily, "The final piece of the puzzle is complete. I will enter closed cultivation, and the day I emerge shall be the day the Kaiyuan Divine Dynasty soars!"

...

"Divine Dynasty Order: Effective immediately, do not move the divine materials unearthed in each Ancient Secret Realm at will. All spiritual ores produced by the Spirit Mountains are to be refined and stored..."

"Divine Dynasty Order: Except for essential matters, all Profound Pavilion personnel are to return to Kunlun Mountain to await orders..."

"Divine Dynasty Order: Divine Island City is to accelerate the collection of ancient starship remnants, focusing on stabilizing the defense line..."

Sect Leader Zhang returned, but instead of heading to the Underworld, he issued a series of Divine Dynasty Orders.

He then returned to Kunlun Mountain, whereupon lightning and thunder often lit the skies, and colorful clouds spread in all directions.

Many were curious and speculated about what Zhang Kui experienced at Fallen Immortal Mountain.

Those privy to the inside story were immensely excited. Every intervention by Zhang Kui brought transformative changes to the Human Race Divine Path, the Divine Land Barrier, the Earth Demon Hall... and this occasion possibly held even more significance.

The citizens of the Divine Dynasty were oblivious to this. They farmed, cultivated, and answered the Divine Dynasty’s calls to freely give birth, thriving in the increasingly perfected system of the Divine Dynasty.

In the Underworld Divine Island City, waves of cultivators continually arrived, turning the once quiet, oppressive Yin Mansion lively as they honed their skills under the protection of numerous Mahayana-level cultivators from the Celestial Pavilion.

Like a tightening fist, the reborn Kaiyuan Divine Dynasty continued to gather strength, merely awaiting the opportune moment to erupt...
