96: Cold Moon Fairy, the power of the Holy Body!
"Open!"
Lu Yuan injected his mana into the Immortal Command Token.
In an instant, the Immortal Command Token shot out a brilliant beam of light, striking directly onto the gate of the Immortal Mansion.
Clack, clack, clack—
A dull grinding sound rang out; that gate, sealed for ten thousand years, now seemed to have encountered its master, sliding open obediently to the sides and opening in an instant.
An extremely pure surge of Taiyin Qi gushed out from within, instantly turning the surroundings into a frozen Domain.
"It's open!"
A trace of shock flashed through Xiao Yuechan's beautiful eyes.
She had originally thought that Lu Yuan saved her to use her blood to sacrifice to the gate; even if that were the case, she would have been willing, just to take revenge on Gu Changge.
Yet, she hadn't expected that Lu Yuan would actually take out the token directly, without needing her to sacrifice even a fraction.
"Go on in."
Lu Yuan glanced at the light screen of the Restriction that had appeared at the gate and shook his head.
"Even with the Immortal Command Token, the original rules and Restrictions of this Immortal Mansion still exist. Only Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Stage and below may enter; if I were to force my way in, I fear I would destroy this place."
"Qingxue, Yuechan."
"The Opportunity within shall be yours to obtain."
As Lu Yuan spoke, he raised his hand and sent out two beams of light, which sank into the bodies of the two women respectively.
"This is the Panhuang Void Sword Qi I have sealed; if you encounter a strong enemy, it can slay those at the Soul Transformation stage."
"And here are two spatial jade talismans; crush them to teleport out."
"Thank you, Husband (Benefactor)!"
The two women accepted the treasures, their hearts filled with deep emotion.
"Go on, I will stay outside and act as your Protector."
Lu Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, signaling them to enter.
Gu Qingxue and Xiao Yuechan exchanged glances, no longer hesitating, and with a flash of their figures, they entered the gate of the Immortal Mansion.
...
Just at the moment the Guanghan Immortal Mansion opened.
That sky-rocketing Taiyin Phenomenon, like a lighthouse in the dark night, instantly alarmed the master of this ice field.
Northern Cold Dao Domain, Guanghan Palace.
This was a branch of the orthodoxy left behind by the Ice Emperor, its foundation and strength in no way weaker than the Ten Gates of the Immortal Dao of the Eastern Wilderness.
Deep within the Immortal Palace.
Three terrifying Auras suddenly awakened, directly tearing through the sky full of wind and snow.
"This is... the Immortal Mansion left by the Ancestral Master has opened?!"
"Such dense Taiyin Qi! And the gate of the Immortal Mansion opened actively? Could it be that a token holder has appeared?"
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Three beams of light shot up into the sky, rushing rapidly toward the direction of the Immortal Mansion.
These three were all female, wearing moon-white palace attire, their Auras unfathomable.
The person in the lead had a head of silver hair, yet her face was as delicate as a young girl's, only her eyes were cold as frost.
The Master of Guanghan Palace, Fairy Lengyue!
A Refining Void Great Power at the Late-Stage Void Refinement!
Behind her were two Grand Elders at the Middle Stage of Void Refinement.
They had long coveted the inheritance of this legendary Immortal Mansion, and now that they saw it had opened, they naturally arrived at the very first moment.
"Regardless of who opened the Immortal Mansion."
"This is the ancestral land of my Guanghan Palace; the inheritance inside must belong to my Guanghan Palace!"
A flash of greed and a cold glint of determination flickered in Fairy Lengyue's eyes.
Outside the Immortal Mansion.
Lu Yuan, sitting cross-legged in the Void Realm, slowly opened his eyes.
He looked toward the three powerful Auras speeding from the horizon, feeling those three undisguised malicious intents, and a faint sneer curled at the corner of his lips.
"Three Void Refining Cultivators... you certainly think highly of me."
Outside the Guanghan Immortal Mansion, the cold wind was biting, and the wind and snow were like knives.
Just as Fairy Lengyue and the two Guanghan Palace Elders behind her were filled with suspicion and uncertainty.
At the edge of the horizon, a vast and boundless water-blue radiance suddenly erupted, like the Milky Way pouring backward, carrying a suffocating pressure of the Middle Stage of Void Refinement, rolling toward them.
"Boom!"
The Void Realm trembled, and a middle-aged man wearing azure Daoist robes arrived stepping on waves.
His face was scholarly, yet it revealed an arrogant air of invincibility; beneath his feet, he stepped on a deep blue water dragon, the momentum grand to the extreme.
The person who arrived was none other than the Grand Elder of the Tianlan Immortal Sect, one of the Ten Gates of the Immortal Dao of the Eastern Wilderness, Cang Lan Daoist Lord.
As soon as he appeared, his gaze did not linger on Lu Yuan for even a fraction, but instead fell directly upon Fairy Lengyue, a flash of undisguised infatuation and eagerness flickering in his eyes.
"Fairy Lengyue, this Seat heard of the disturbance in this extreme Northern Ice Field, and I knew it must be the opening of your Guanghan Palace's ancestral land. I feared that some petty villains might take the Opportunity to cause trouble, so I came specifically to act as your Protector."
Cang Lan Daoist Lord's voice was gentle, even carrying a touch of ingratiation.
However, when he turned his head to look at Lu Yuan, who was sitting cross-legged in the Void Realm blocking the gate of the Immortal Mansion, that scholarly face instantly became incomparably gloomy, and the Aura belonging to the Middle Stage of Void Refinement pressed over without reservation.
"You there, junior, who are you?"
"This is the ancestral land of Guanghan Palace; is this something a Loose Cultivator like you can covet?"
In order to show off in front of his beloved, Cang Lan Daoist Lord's tone was exceptionally harsh: "If you know what's good for you, get lost quickly and yield this Immortal Mansion entrance, otherwise, don't blame this Seat for being ruthless!"
Facing Cang Lan Daoist Lord's clamoring, Lu Yuan didn't even lift an eyelid; he just sat there quietly, as if the imposing Refining Void Great Power before him was nothing more than a noisy fly.
Fairy Lengyue's beautiful eyes shifted; she did not speak to stop him, but instead took half a step back.
Although she could not see through Lu Yuan's depth, that moment of heart palpitations from just a moment ago could not be fake.
It was perfect to use Cang Lan Daoist Lord's hand to test this person's background.
"Hmph, refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!"
Seeing that Lu Yuan dared to ignore him, Cang Lan Daoist Lord instantly felt a loss of face, especially in front of Fairy Lengyue; how could he endure this?
"Since you want to die, this Seat will grant your wish!"
Cang Lan Daoist Lord shouted sharply, his hands violently forming Seals.
"Boom!"
The vast, sea-like Law of Water within his body erupted, and five Law chains resembling flood dragons manifested behind him, weaving into an azure Domain.
"Raging Sea and Wild Waves!"
As he channeled his mana, a precious pearl emitting brilliant blue light flew out from his Dantian and hovered above his head.
Top-Grade Spiritual Treasure—Sea-Stabilizing Pearl!
Once this pearl appeared, the ice field for a thousand miles instantly turned into a vast ocean.
That was not ordinary water, but One-Yuan Heavy Water, where every drop weighed a thousand jun.
Endless seawater surged and roared in the Void Realm, raising ten-thousand-foot waves that blotted out the sky and sun, carrying a terrifying weight capable of crushing everything, crashing down upon Lu Yuan's head.
Such might, even for Fairy Lengyue who was watching from the side, could not help but show a look of solemnity.
Although Cang Lan Daoist Lord was arrogant, his skills were indeed not weak; relying on this Sea-Stabilizing Pearl and the five-transformation Law, he could be considered a powerhouse among those at the Middle Stage of Void Refinement.
However, Lu Yuan, who was at the center of the storm, remained unmoved.
Not until the moment the ten-thousand-foot wave was about to crash onto him did he slowly lift his eyelids; in his golden pupils, reflecting that sky-filling seawater, a faint mockery flashed.
"A mere grain of sand, daring to shine?"
Lu Yuan slowly raised his right hand, his five fingers grasping the air, and the majestic golden blood of the Ancient Desolate Sacred Body within his body suddenly awakened.
