Chapter 92 Entering the Primordial Ancient Mine
Chapter 92 Entering the Primordial Ancient Mine
The red earth stretched as far as the eye could see, covered in red gauze, with towering boulders standing tall.
The outer area of the Primordial Ancient Mine was not empty.
On the contrary, there are many broken walls and ruins here, some huge stone pillars soaring into the sky, and vast foundations exposed on the ground everywhere.
All of these things speak to the past glory.
In ancient times, many temples stood in this place, revered by all races.
Millions of years have passed, the world has changed, and the ancient races have fallen into slumber, leaving only ruins and broken walls behind.
Hua Yunfei wrote and drew on the open ground, and one after another, complex and intricate Origin Heaven patterns appeared.
He used the methods described in the Book of Origin to deduce the whereabouts of the Holy Maiden of Yaochi and others.
Based on the conversations of the Yaochi group along the way, Hua Yunfei had already gained some understanding of this black whirlwind.
In the past, a few cultivators have mistakenly entered the forbidden area and ultimately survived.
Based on these people's experiences, after accidentally entering this black whirlwind, the distance it takes away each time is no more than two hundred miles.
Based on this calculation, even if the Holy Maiden of Yaochi and her group fell into the ancient mine area, they would be near the outer edge.
However, this is only the ideal situation. The Primordial Ancient Mine can cloud the senses of cultivators, and they may inadvertently venture deeper into the forbidden zone without even realizing it.
"Whatever, let's give it a try!"
Hua Yunfei stood up, preparing to enter the restricted area of the Primordial Ancient Mine to search for something.
With his current source techniques, getting out of the outer area of the restricted zone shouldn't be a problem, as long as he doesn't go too deep.
If he can successfully rescue the Holy Maiden of Yaochi, his plan to exchange for the Heavenly Emperor's son will go much more smoothly.
With a whoosh, a figure burst forth from Hua Yunfei's body, identical to himself. This was a deity nurtured within his Dao Palace, essentially an avatar.
To ensure a smooth exit, Hua Yunfei left the deity outside and also left the dragon-patterned black gold cauldron on the deity's body.
His true form carried the Devouring Demon Jar into the forbidden area. The two imperial weapons could sense each other, ensuring that Hua Yunfei could always find the right direction and not get lost inside.
While the safest approach would be to send an avatar inside, the effectiveness of using an avatar to cast source magic would be greatly reduced.
After doing all this, he headed towards the restricted area, towards a location he had calculated.
Hua Yunfei acted quickly, worried that the Holy Maiden of Yaochi and the others would wander around the forbidden area and get deeper and deeper into trouble.
After traveling dozens of miles, he crossed a special area and felt an indescribable sense of oppression.
We've entered the restricted area!
The inability to fly in the Primordial Ancient Mine is not because this place, like the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, suppresses the divine power of cultivators, thus preventing them from flying.
Rather, this place is fraught with great terror, and anyone who dares to leap into the air will surely perish, body and soul.
Hua Yunfei had no choice but to run at high speed on the ground.
A quarter of an hour later, he appeared near a low hill, which was the approximate location of the Yaochi Saintess and the others that he had deduced.
But now, there is no sign of the Holy Maiden of Yaochi and the Holy Son of Dayan, Xiang Yifei.
After searching for a while, Hua Yunfei finally found some traces. His eyes narrowed and he saw that there were some short limbs on the ground!
"They won't encounter any creatures from the restricted area, will they?"
Suddenly, Hua Yunfei struck out with his palm behind him. Since entering the restricted area, he had been on high alert, and upon sensing the abnormality behind him, he did not hesitate to make his move.
With a loud boom, a mysterious creature struck him with a palm strike, the powerful shockwave causing the area to rumble.
A piercing scream rang out, and a humanoid creature covered in red hair staggered backward, its hand torn and deformed, before quickly disappearing into the darkness.
"Master Yuan?!" Hua Yunfei exclaimed in surprise, his voice rising several decibels.
"No, it doesn't have that terrifying aura, it's just a ghost ape..." He let out a long breath.
Then, staring at the lifeless ghost ape with a strange expression, he realized that this guy could actually withstand his palm strike with his bare body, and his arm was only deformed. One can imagine how strong his physical body was.
You should know that Hua Yunfei's physical body is now absolutely no worse than that of a Saint Body at the same level!
It can only be said that the creatures that appear in this Primordial Ancient Mine Forbidden Zone are all extraordinary.
Ignoring the ghost ape, Hua Yunfei followed the trail left by the people from Yaochi Holy Land, using the Devouring Demon Jar to sense the location of the Dragon Pattern Black Gold Cauldron throughout the process.
They discovered that they were heading deeper into the Primordial Mine!
Hua Yunfei didn't care at all about the lives of those people in the Dayan Holy Land. He only wished that the Holy Maiden of Yaochi was safe and sound, otherwise all his efforts would have been in vain.
Hua Yunfei followed the clues for over a hundred miles, and fortunately, he did not encounter any danger along the way.
He didn't make a discovery until he approached a mountain ridge. Behind the ridge, divine light soared into the sky, accompanied by shouts of battle.
He quickly climbed the ridge and looked ahead.
In the open space ahead, a dozen figures were fighting each other like madmen, as if they had lost their minds.
Hua Yunfei's pupils suddenly contracted. He recognized these young people as cultivators from Yaochi Holy Land and Dayan Holy Land. They seemed to be trapped in some kind of terrifying illusion.
If nothing unexpected happens, the Holy Maiden of Yaochi should also be among them.
Soon, he noticed a woman whose body was shrouded in a hazy mist, like a dream, giving people a sense of unreality.
Only the woman and another young man were still struggling in the field. Their bodies were filled with divine light as they fought against a shadowy object, and they did not get lost in the illusion.
Unsurprisingly, this man was none other than Xiang Yifei, the Holy Son of Dayan.
Without rushing to make a move, Hua Yunfei minimized his own fluctuations and quietly observed the area.
After a moment, he realized the mystery: this place had a naturally formed field that was being used by some evil entity, which would greatly affect the cultivator's mental realm.
Judging from the state of Yaochi Saintess and Xiang Yifei, he figured the shadowy evil creature wasn't too terrifying, so he made his move immediately.
Hua Yunfei tossed out hundreds or even thousands of pure source blocks into the ground with a wave of his hand. These source blocks were all engraved with special source runes.
Then he summoned more than a dozen large banners and scattered them in all directions. With a boom, the banners shook and the source blocks underground burned.
The area trembled violently, a gash was torn open, and the naturally formed terrain was temporarily interrupted and rendered useless. The dozen or so disciples of the Holy Land immediately felt a lightness in their bodies.
"Amitabha Buddha..."
Hua Yunfei chanted the Taoist incantation, his appearance solemn and dignified, and took a step to the center of the arena.
At his shout, the disciples of the two holy lands who were trapped in the illusion awoke one after another, their faces filled with horror.
"The energy field here has been broken, and the evil spirits are no longer a threat!" Hua Yunfei shouted again.
Everyone present was overjoyed that someone had come to their aid in their dire situation.
"Thank you, Daoist Master!" Xiang Yifei, the Holy Son of Dayan, was overjoyed. Without the obstruction of the field here, he was like a dragon or the sea, and his aura rose steadily.
"Kill!" Instead of advancing, he retreated, wielding a golden divine sword as he charged towards the creature in the shadows. It was a spiritual being, particularly adept at attacking a person's mental realm.
"Thank you for your help, Taoist priest."
A heavenly sound rang out, and the Holy Maiden of Yaochi in the distance nodded to him in thanks. The Holy Maiden was shrouded in mist, so her true appearance could not be seen. At this moment, she also attacked the spiritual entity.
