Eternal Life Chapter 67

Nine Palace Golden PaG.o.das

[TL: Jiu Gong, literally nine palaces, refers to the nine heavenly palaces that ancient Chinese people believed in]

“The Devil Qi in front of us is extremely dense. We should be more careful, I’m afraid that the number of ‘Heavenly Devils’ gathered in front of us is no small number.”

As the ‘Wolf Smoke Magic Sphere’ flew close to the ground, its speed was rather fast, like a gust of wind or a strike of lightning. Even the fastest galloping horse probably couldn’t match even a third of the magic sphere’s speed, although, compared to the disappearing lights of ‘Divine Realm’ pract.i.tioners and sword light, it was still much, much slower. However, caution sails a s.h.i.+p for tens of thousands of years. Thus Fang Han unhesitantly slowed it down.

He now had a firm grasp over some of the ways of using the ‘Sky Wolf Smoke’. He now knew that the core of the array for the ‘Sky Wolf Smoke’ was within one of the grids of within the ‘Seven Evil Spirits Gourd’, and that by vigorously concentrating his spirit within it, he could cause the array to circulate even faster, thus increasing the power of the ‘Sky Wolf Smoke’. The more scattered the spirit, however, the less the power of the ‘Sky Wolf Smoke’.

Stimulating the ‘Sky Wolf Smoke’ thus depleted spiritual energy at a greater rate.

However, the current Fang Han’s flesh was tyrannical, his mind extremely clear. Moreover, his spiritual power had greatly increased and, especially due to his daily cultivation of the ‘Primary Spiritual Technique’, the acc.u.mulation of his spirit became increasingly forceful, tempering and cleansing his will, waiting for the day when the acc.u.mulated force became enough to break through the barrier, turning the spirit into mana, and entering the ‘Divine Realm’.

This time within the ‘Heavenly Devil Arena’ battling ‘Heavenly Devils’ had greatly benefitted Fang Han. Moreover, the newly taught ‘Eight Sounds of the Heavenly Dragon’ was a supreme method for coordinating the spirit and flesh, and had extremely good mystical effects for helping condense the spirit.

Currently, gradually through controlling the ‘Sky Wolf Smoke’ and pondering over the relations.h.i.+ps between the flesh, sound, spirit, and will, Fang Han was coming to another realization. Suddenly, from in front of them, an extremely vast, intense chilly qi crept over. It was as if they had come before a giant snowy mountain.

When Fang Han sensed this chilly qi, he immediately warned everyone, slowing the speed of the ‘Sky Wolf Smoke’ even further.

“I have also sensed this dense Devil Qi!” From her chest, Xu Yue Er took out a yellow talisman. After lighting it with ‘True Fire Talisman’, the yellow talisman immediately flew away illuminating their surroundings with a stream of fire. Afterwards, it exploded with a bang, scattering into hundreds upon thousands of little meteors which fell towards the ground.

“Ah! There must be at least several thousand ‘Heavenly Devils’. My talisman was a ‘Devil Seeking Talisman’, a fa’qi which upon being lit and tossed into the air can sense Devil Qi. Based on the number of ‘Devils’ it senses, the talisman will explode into that many little meteors. Since it turned into hundreds upon thousands of meteors, an amount that we can’t even discern, let us try and hide first,” said Xu Yue Er in a dignified manner.

The eight female disciples all seemed to have become rather alarmed. Indeed, several thousand ‘Heavenly Devils’ wasn’t something they could overcome, not even with the help of bao’qi.

“That this many ‘Heavenly Devils’ have gathered here together, there is no way they are just playing house. There must be disciples trapped around here. And there must be many. We must past this area anyway, we should be fine if we are more careful. Even if we encounter a few thousand ‘Heavenly Devils’, as long as we don’t attack and focus on just defending, we should be able to buy some time.”

Fang Han was unafraid, bold but cautious. The eight female disciples of the ‘Jia’lan Group’ couldn’t help but admire his courage.

They flew slowly, their eyes scanning in front of them. There was a forest of mountains in front of them, the bare mountain peaks piercing through the skies, not a tree to be seen. Opposite to the peaks was an incomparably vast plain. Atop the plain, one could faintly see gusts of chilly wind blowing across.

Under the shroud of the chilly wind were none other than Yu’hua School disciples. This time, it wasn’t just a few disciples, but two to three hundred disciples!

These disciples were all caught amongst the shrouds of the chilly wind.

They were being besieged by a full three thousand or so ‘Heavenly Devils’! Tens of nearly ‘Devil King’ stage ‘Heavenly Devils’ were leading them!
“What magic treasure is that? It can actually fend off the advances of three thousand ‘Heavenly Devils’?” asked Fang Han, shocked. Against ‘Heavenly Devils’, of course the more people, the greater the power. If the several hundred disciples connected their roars then of course these ‘Heavenly Devils’ would be directly torn apart. However, to face several thousand ‘Heavenly Devils’, it was still too little.

Moreover, Fang Han had seen nine golden lights flas.h.i.+ng around the head of the leading disciple. They were actually golden PaG.o.das about the size of a fist! These golden PaG.o.das shot out thick golden lights which shrouded the disciples like giant pots. No matter what the ‘Heavenly Devils’ flying outside did, they couldn’t break through these golden lights.

The disciples which were protected were separated into groups of three to five, each group holding a fa’qi level little bell. They violent shook these bells, producing sound waves which shot out towards the ‘Heavenly Devils’ as an attack. Meanwhile, other disciples held leather bags which surprisingly produced winds and would directly suck ‘Heavenly Devils’ into the bag.

“The ‘Nine Palace Golden PaG.o.das’! That’s the ‘Nine Palace Golden PaG.o.das’! That’s the magic treasure of the ‘Heavenly Capital Peak’ which protects the entire peak. It has immeasurable power, a pure yang magic treasure’! Why would it appear in the hands of these outer court disciples? Wa? Those are nine inner court disciples. They must have come to the rescue.”

Ye Yu, seeing how those nine small golden PaG.o.das shot out thousands of golden lights, couldn’t help but exclaim with surprise. It was because this bao’qi was just too shocking.

This pure yang bao’qi is not bad. This ‘Nine Palace Golden PaG.o.das’ is a pure yang bao’qi! Moreover, its essence is even more pure than the ‘Sky Rooster Pure Yang Rope’. It is the best stuff for me to consume. If I swallow these nine golden paG.o.das, I can fully restore my strength to the fifth stage of the ‘Divine Realm’, the ‘Heavenly Person’ stage. I will become able to refine ling’qi for you.

Yan became increasingly excited within the ‘Yellow Springs Picture’.

Only by consuming pure yang magic treasures could he recover his strength. Furthermore, this ‘Nine Palace Golden PaG.o.das’ was a pure yang treasure that couldn’t be encountered even if one tried to look for it.

Since the Yu’hua School has already sent people over to the rescue, if you don’t want to be captured and dissected by others, then we shouldn’t think about the ‘Nine Palace Golden PaG.o.das’ for now, thought Fang Han silently. Our current objective is to just kill as many ‘Heavenly Devils’ as we can and refine them into pellets.
Afterwards, he spoke out loud, “Since even a magic treasure like the ‘Nine Palace Golden PaG.o.das’ has appeared, the Yu’hua School’s rescue has already begun. Let us enter the protective layers of the golden paG.o.das. I’m afraid it will be much safer!”

“Mhm, the ‘Nine Palace Golden PaG.o.das’ is rumored to be something that the venerable headmaster personally bestowed upon the first true disciple. It is a pure yang treasure of Hua Tian Dou senior brother of the ‘Heavenly Capital Peak’. Hua Tian Dou senior brother has generally used it to protect his peak, it seems as if this time, it has appeared within the possession of these nine inner court disciples. Thus, it is clear that even Hua senior brother has come here to take part in ma.s.sacring these Devils, and that he left his treasure behind here to protect the ma.s.ses. Let’s enter the golden paG.o.das’ barriers, they are definitely unbreakable.”

Xu Yue Er also nodded in approval.

“This many disciples, how did they all come together?” asked Fang Han. When he had been teleported over to the ‘Heavenly Devil Arena’, he was isolated by himself.

“We all have ‘Communication Talismans’. This low level fa’qi is very easy to obtain.” Ye Yu took out a small talisman and gave it to Fang Han, “Take it. In the future, after we leave this place, you can follow the guidance of the talisman to find every member of the ‘Jia’lan Group’.”

“Let’s go! In one breath, let us break through the encirclement of these three thousand ‘Heavenly Devils’ and enter the protection of the ‘Nine Palace Golden PaG.o.das’! Let us join up with our fellow disciples!” Fang Han steeled his heart, controlling the ‘Sky Wolf Smoke’ to contract and increase in power.

“There is no point for you all to go anywhere!”

At this moment, a voice came out from behind them. Fang Han felt a chill rise in his heart, the rising feeling of terror. He looked behind them. All he saw was a tall man standing at a place not too far behind them. Its two eyes were extremely pale, like two burning fires.

“This majesty is a king of ‘Heavenly Devils’, the ‘Vajrabhairava Devil King’. You killed over five hundred of my underlings, and deserve to die a million times over,” said the ‘Vajrabhairava Devil King’ in an emotionless voice.
