Chapter 1000 - 1000: Relic Pearl
In front of Flame Mountain in the southwest.Two vehicles steadily stopped, and Liu Zixuan and the others got out of the car.
The Shi Family ancestor pointed to the mountain ahead and said, "This area of mountains is often engulfed in wildfires all year round, even during thunderstorms, hence the name 'Flame Mountain'. The Celestial Dao Alliance chose a place deep within Flame Mountain this time, but I don't know the exact location."
"There's almost no path ahead; we'll have to walk!" Zhao Yi ran a few steps forward and then returned to say.
Liu Zixuan nodded: "In that case, we'll split into two groups to enter the mountain. Once we find them inside, we'll regroup."
"How do we enter the relic pearl?" The Shi Family ancestor asked.
Liu Zixuan raised the corner of his mouth: "I naturally have a plan for that. Just watch when the time comes!"
"Alright, then I'll take Shi Ke and enter from the front. The two of us are less likely to be noticed. You loop around from the side, and once you find them, hide first!"
After saying this, the Shi Family ancestor took Shi Ke and headed towards the small path entering the mountain from the front.
Liu Zixuan raised his eyebrows: "Let's go too."
"The Shi Family won't create trouble, will they?" Zhao Yi was still a bit uneasy and asked.
"They wouldn't dare make trouble without eliminating the Celestial Dao Alliance!" Liu Zixuan smiled mysteriously: "If they dare try anything, then Flame Mountain will be the burial site for the Shi Family ancestor!"
After speaking, Liu Zixuan also walked towards the mountain with Ye Lianyi and Zhao Yi.
Flame Mountain is perpetually surrounded by raging fires, not just enveloping the summit, but even halfway up the mountain, it's shrouded in smoke, which indirectly provides convenience to Liu Zixuan. After all, while standing halfway up, they cannot be seen by those inside the mountain's depths. Yet, they can see everything below clearly.
"Star Sea truly is vast and rich; before, I had only seen some familiar mountains that didn't seem extraordinary, but coming here now, I realize some things can only be felt by being in the moment." Ye Lianyi muttered as she walked.
Liu Zixuan laughed: "Is this surprising to you? I'll take you to see Yudu Mountain and Baisong Mountain someday; that's the true realm of immortals!"
"I've also heard some legends about Yudu and Changbai. I'll go have a look if I get the chance," Ye Lianyi laughed.
"Shush!"
Just then, Zhao Yi, who was walking ahead, suddenly signaled to keep quiet and crouched down to look below.
Liu Zixuan and Ye Lianyi also looked in the direction he pointed, seeing a group of people gathered on a flat area as if discussing something.
"Ancestor, everything is prepared. This place will never be discovered; can we start?" A Celestial Dao Alliance disciple asked the elder beside him.
Liu Zixuan activated his X-ray Vision, making the scene clearer. The Zhong Family ancestor looked to the side: "Alright, prepare yourselves; I'll work with the other ancestors to activate the relic pearl!"
As he spoke, the disciples beside him gathered together, nervously watching the ancestors.
Five Celestial Dao Alliance ancestors exchanged glances, formed a circle, and sat cross-legged on the ground. The Gu Family ancestor took a pearl from his pocket and placed it in the center.
Several ancestors began sealing, and pure inner strength flowed from their fingertips, infusing into the pearl.
The originally dull-colored pearl suddenly radiated bright light, rising into the air, as a unique force emerged.
"They're going in!"
At this point, the bushes beside them rustled a few times, and the Shi Family ancestor and Shi Ke came over.
Liu Zixuan nodded and turned to Ye Lianyi: "It's up to you later!"
"What? Still not trusting me?" Ye Lianyi feigned annoyance and asked.
Liu Zixuan shook his head: "Of course not."
"It's starting!"
The Shi Family ancestor suddenly pointed downward.
The pearl that had risen into the air suddenly released a seven-colored light, and the disciples standing nearby vanished directly.
"Now's the time!" Liu Zixuan immediately spoke to Ye Lianyi.
Ye Lianyi smiled and suddenly had a few small insects in her hand, and with a force from her left hand, she dropped them down.
"What are those?" The Shi Family ancestor asked.
"Illusion Insects!" Ye Lianyi smiled proudly.
"I've heard of these insects, but those elders are all in the Emperor Realm. Can they really be fooled?" The Shi Family ancestor asked with a frown.
Liu Zixuan laughed: "They are indeed in the Emperor Realm, but since they just infused a lot of inner strength, this is naturally their weakest moment. And I'm not planning to do anything with these few insects; just stalling them will be enough!"
The Shi Family ancestor suddenly raised his head: "You mean to let the Illusion Insects create an illusion during this weak few minutes, and then we'll use this gap to enter the relic pearl?"
"Correct answer."
After saying this, Liu Zixuan immediately stood up and darted down the mountain. The others followed closely behind.
This was all premeditated by Liu Zixuan, so it naturally came as no surprise.
When they arrived near the flat land, the ancestors seemed as if they'd seen something and immediately ran to both sides.
"It's your turn!" Ye Lianyi laughed.
Liu Zixuan chuckled slightly, took out the pearl given to him by Tongtong Shishu earlier, and threw it directly towards the relic pearl.
Just like before, a seven-colored light flashed, a special suction force appeared, pulling them directly into the space within the relic pearl.
Meanwhile, on the flat land, the light flickered and passed, the ancestors returned here, and exchanged glances.
The Zhong Family ancestor asked solemnly: "The relic pearl seemed to radiate light just now!"
"I seem to vaguely see it too. Could someone have gone in again?" Asked the elder beside him.
"Probably not, as the magic technique to activate the pearl is known only to us five, and besides, even if someone went in, what can they do? Don't forget: even the Gu Family ancestor sneaked in. Anyone ordinary going in would only be going to their death!"
Upon hearing this, the Zhong Family ancestor furrowed his brow: "It's just these insects and that illusion make me uneasy!"
"Maybe it's just the instability of our cultivation technique just now, and besides, with us five guarding here, nothing will happen." The elder beside him patted the Zhong Family ancestor's shoulder: "Let's all rest for a while. They'll probably be inside for a few hours!"
Upon hearing this, the ancestors said no more and sat nearby to meditate.
Meanwhile, Liu Zixuan and the others had already entered the relic.
Gazing at the unfamiliar surroundings, Liu Zixuan said sternly: "Inside, try not to waste time and energy; our real opponents are the five ancestors outside."
