94: Chapter 53 Maitreya's Mark! The Heavenly Fire Image is Obtained
Almost instantly, Xiao Ye trembled all over!
The statue had come to life!
Chen Xuan silently activated his protective Spiritual Artifact jade pendant.
Sure enough, the danger was right at this moment.
Maitreya was the only danger.
This statue had actually come to life.
It was more like a divine descent.
"Join your Sect?"
Chen Xuan's eyes flashed with a fierce light! Without any nonsense, he activated his sword light as he spoke!
This strike! It rivaled the Qi Refining Mid-Stage; can a mere statue like you take it?
"As expected of a Sword Cultivator, drawing your sword at the slightest disagreement." Maitreya spread out his Domain unhurriedly.
The sword light formed by the long sword froze within the bright yellow Domain.
Oh no!
Chen Xuan's heart tightened.
He already understood what was happening.
This kind of power was more like a Divine Ability!
Something was wrong. A descent? Or what?
The sword lights from the Sword Light Differentiation were extinguished one by one.
Chen Xuan retreated.
Xiao Ye had already pulled back to a safe distance long ago.
"Hmm?"
"Want to escape?"
Maitreya's broad Face revealed a compassionate smile: "You have an affinity with my Buddha. The sea of bitterness is boundless, but repent and you will find the shore!"
A faint ripple sounded.
These words were like profound teachings.
Chen Xuan's stance began to waver unknowingly.
Ding!
The protective jade talisman bloomed with a milky white light.
His vision cleared instantly, and he broke free from the control.
The next moment, the jade talisman emitted a shimmering cyan light, and Sword Qi soared into the sky!
"Maitreya, you are a True Monarch, yet you actually make a move against a Foundation Establishment Cultivator."
"How can you show your Face!"
The newcomer's appearance could not be seen, only boundless Sword Qi could be felt.
"So it is Fellow Daoist Cang Jian!"
"This Southern Region is vast and barren, yet you, True Monarch Cang Jian, can actually take a fancy to it?" Maitreya laughed.
He did not try to convert Chen Xuan again.
"Hmph!" True Monarch Cang Jian gave a cold snort: "If the Southern Region hadn't sent someone to the Sword Sect for help, we wouldn't have known that a stray dog like you had snuck into the Southern Region."
"Have you forgotten the agreement you made with the Demon Saint back then?" Cang Jian's Face became clear. He was a man who looked like he had been carved as a work of art, with handsome features, as if he were the Dao itself.
Chen Xuan and Xiao Ye watched from afar.
The powerful pressure of the True Monarch made it extremely difficult for the two to even think.
Fortunately, True Monarch Cang Jian was shielding the two, which was why they hadn't been instantly refined by Maitreya's Domain.
"You entered the Southern Region without permission; are you trying to provoke the nerves of every Sect? The Buddhist Sect still has several Bodhisattvas waiting to ascend to the position of Buddha. If you are tired of living, I don't mind joining forces with the True Monarchs of the Sacred Sect to challenge the Blissful Pure Land Grotto-Heaven with our swords." Cang Jian asked again.
Maitreya laughed heartily and fanned himself with a cattail fan: "Fellow Daoist Cang Jian, you speak too severely. The agreement signed with the Demon Saint back then was merely not to violate each other's lands and not to enter others' territories."
"The Southern Region is not the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range."
"Of course, I cannot be considered to have crossed the boundary."
"But since you have come, Fellow Daoist, I will give you some Face." He laughed loudly: "The world says that immortals are good, but they do not know the wonders of the Blissful Pure Land~"
After Maitreya finished speaking, the sculpture turned into golden light and dissipated into the air.
Leaving only the holy fire, which looked like Heavenly Fire, flickering behind him.
"Your Luck is not bad; you actually have a portion of the Heavenly Fire imagery."
True Monarch Cang Jian sighed with emotion, then turned to look at Chen Xuan and the other.
The former was full of Sword Qi; he must be the Sword Sect Disciple who triggered the protective item.
The latter had mediocre Aptitude and mediocre combat power; just a passerby.
"This Disciple greets Grandmaster!" Chen Xuan immediately knelt on one knee.
Grandmaster Cang Jian, one of the founding Elders of the Liuyang Sword Sect, a great Cultivator with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, who fought his way to the top alongside the Old Ancestor who had the Wine Sword Immortal Physique.
His cultivation was unfathomable, and the Liuyang Sword Sect in the Central Plains had stood for a thousand years, a feat he contributed greatly to.
"Hmm." True Monarch Cang Jian maintained his image as an expert, "Since you are a Disciple of my Sect, today is considered a fated encounter, so I will bestow an Opportunity upon you."
"How much you comprehend depends on yourselves."
True Monarch Cang Jian waved his hand, and dots of cyan light flickered; it was actually a Divine Ability Legacy.
Then his figure disappeared.
Chen Xuan had no time to think, so he sat cross-legged and concentrated on comprehending it with all his might.
Xiao Ye, who was on the side, knew that an Opportunity had arrived.
He immediately followed suit.
Incense used for enlightenment was lit, and Chen Xuan quickly fell into a state of enlightenment.
[Divine Ability: Mountain Lifting!]
This Divine Ability could use the power of heaven and earth to leverage the earth's ley lines, empower oneself, and defeat others with Mountain Lifting!
Chen Xuan quickly fell into a state of enlightenment.
He swallowed several Medicinal Pills to improve his cultivation.
The Qi Refining Seventh Layer Middle Stage quickly reached Perfection!
Breakthrough!
Qi Refining Seventh Layer Late Stage!
Almost three cycles!
Qi Refining Eighth Layer!
Divine Ability, Mountain Lifting mastered!
'With my current strength, I can perform a basic Mountain Lifting...'
This Divine Ability could only be fully performed at the Golden Core Realm.
Chen Xuan could only simplify and simplify it again, thus performing half of it to empower himself.
As for smashing people with a great mountain, that was impossible.
This Grandmaster is really good!
He saved his life and gave him treasures.
Just now, Chen Xuan had been prepared to use his trump card, Laughter of the Vast Sea, to risk his life for a fight.
Unexpectedly, the protective jade talisman had actually attracted the Grandmaster's protection.
It sounded like the Chamber of Commerce's route had been successfully opened, and the main Sect in the Central Plains had received the news.
Therefore, such a True Monarch with great Divine Abilities could use the connection of Karma to appear and provide protection.
Just like Maitreya's divine descent.
With a medium of Karma, it could be transmitted.
Chen Xuan finished his enlightenment, and Xiao Ye had been waiting on the side for a long time.
Under his envious gaze, Chen Xuan looked at the burning fire in the sky.
Heavenly Fire!
The greatest Opportunity!
It was also the Opportunity the Grandmaster spoke of, a portion of the Heavenly Fire imagery.
Chen Xuan immediately activated his magic power.
Refined in an instant!
"Damn it!"
The next moment, Chen Xuan cursed out loud.
That piece of shit Maitreya had actually placed his mark inside the seed of this imagery.
Only to see a golden Maitreya sitting in the middle of this cluster of fire.
Smiling at Chen Xuan.
It was as disgusting as it could be.
Chen Xuan felt a headache; he had intended to refine it into his body, but now he could only give up.
After refining it, he used a lava treasure vase to contain it and put it into his Storage Pouch.
'So the Heavenly Fire imagery is used to fish for Heavenly Fire.'
Chen Xuan became more and more curious.
This Heavenly Fire involved the foundation of his future enlightenment and proving the Dao.
However, Maitreya also had methods, being able to refine imagery linked to Heavenly Fire.
After refining this imagery, he could only perceive that it could be used to fish for Heavenly Fire, most likely the Great Sun True Fire.
Which was, in mythology, the Sun True Fire, the Golden Crow True Fire.
Unfortunately, in this life, Chen Xuan's knowledge was at most Foundation Establishment; he hadn't reached the Realm of fishing.
He could only let it go.
"Brother Yun, this is the harvest." Xiao Ye handed over a Storage Pouch; these were the cultivation resources he had found while looting the bodies.
Chen Xuan glanced at it, took out an empty Storage Pouch, and divided half into it.
"Brother Xiao, take it."
Xiao Ye did not refuse and accepted it.
This was an acknowledgment of their friendship.
After this trip, his cultivation had improved to the Qi Refining Eighth Layer.
He also obtained the Divine Ability Mountain Lifting.
This method also had miraculous effects for breaking through to Foundation Establishment, as it could borrow the power of famous mountains.
He must try it a few times when he had the chance.
"The Zhang Family operated for many years, yet unexpectedly, they were destroyed in a single day." Xiao Ye felt a sense of sadness for their fate.
Looking at the full bag of Spirit Stones, he should have been happy, but now he couldn't smile at all.
Chen Xuan shook his head.
He had seen too many aristocratic families destroyed over the years.
Everything is a dream, a bubble; only by seeking the truth!
Only by climbing the Dao can one achieve longevity.
"By the way, Brother Yun, are you going to the auction in half a year?"
Chen Xuan had gotten an auction token for the Xiao Family to auction the Creation Spirit Liquid.
It could improve the quality of Spiritual Roots.
This was the main product of the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce in the future.
It was also something Chen Xuan had devoted all his efforts to researching in his previous life.
Almost more than half of the entire Chamber of Commerce's resources were on research and development.
"I won't go."
Chen Xuan had already obtained the ascension spirit liquid.
However, he hadn't taken it.
According to the Chamber of Commerce, it was best to wait until most people had taken it before taking it himself, using it as an observation.
So, after about half a year, when most people had used it on the spot, Chen Xuan would take it after seeing the results.
"Once I notify the Sect, we will head back."
Chen Xuan said calmly, and Xiao Ye nodded.
This matter came to an end.
But Chen Xuan's heart became increasingly tense.
Maitreya's power completely exceeded his imagination.
There would surely be a battle in the Southern Region in the future.
And through the Grandmaster's words, he knew.
They could not enter the Southern Region; the Demon Saint's agreement.
In the future, he would still have to rely on himself!
