247: Crossing the Abyss Battlefield, the Mountain of Inheritance
Su Yun once again released his Divine Sense to observe his surroundings, but he did not find the existence of any other remnant souls.
Most of them had likely been killed by him.
Even those that weren't killed probably went into hiding.
"Young Master Su, where are we going next?"
Liu Ruoxi calmed herself and asked softly.
"Let's go over there. There seems to be a large mountain across this Sunken Abyss Battlefield; I expect there are many Legacies there."
Su Yun looked into the distance.
After dealing with a large number of remnant souls and clearing the thick Evil Qi around them, the sky glowed slightly.
The distant scenery also became clearly visible; thousands of miles away, a mountain tens of thousands of feet high pierced the clouds.
Various spiritual lights flickered on the mountain peaks.
Countless spiritual runes floated around the mountain.
"Okay."
Liu Ruoxi nodded.
Then, the two of them executed their respective movement techniques, turning into streaks of light as they rushed toward that mountain.
At this time, other Cultivators also noticed the mountain and followed the two of them, flying toward it one after another.
"Strange, it seems we haven't encountered any danger along the way?"
"Isn't the Sunken Abyss Mystic Realm supposed to be full of peril everywhere?"
Many Cultivators spoke with a bit of bewilderment.
"The dangers were likely the remnant souls on the Sunken Abyss Battlefield.
But those remnant souls were all killed by Su Yun and the other; even those that weren't killed have likely hidden away."
"Then we really have Su Yun and that Girl in White Robes to thank. Otherwise, with my strength, I certainly wouldn't have been able to deal with those remnant souls."
Many Cultivators silently thanked Su Yun and Liu Ruoxi in their hearts, especially those Cultivators with lower Realms... Some time later.
Su Yun and Liu Ruoxi arrived not far from that mountain.
They hadn't encountered any other remnant souls along the way, which Su Yun felt was a bit of a pity.
After all, opportunities to increase the strength of one's Divine Sense so easily were rare.
Then, he looked at the mountain.
He saw that the area within a hundred-mile radius of the mountain was shrouded in a mysterious gray spiritual light.
The gray spiritual light contained a peculiar power, seemingly releasing powerful Divine Sense attacks at every moment.
"This area of gray spiritual light seems to contain powerful illusions. If one's Divine Sense strength is insufficient, they will likely be unable to proceed upon entering the range of the spiritual light and will fall directly into an illusionary realm. If they cannot pass through the illusionary realm, there will likely be danger."
Liu Ruoxi said somewhat solemnly after investigating with her Divine Sense for a moment.
After all, she had also practiced various types of illusions, so she was quite proficient in illusion-type spells.
She felt a powerful illusion power from the gray spiritual light outside this mountain; even with her Divine Sense strength, she could not completely resist this gray spiritual light.
"I sensed it too.
This should be a test. If one cannot pass through the gray spiritual light area, they will be unable to obtain the Cultivation Technique Legacies on the mountain."
Su Yun didn't mind this area of gray spiritual light.
Because his own Divine Sense strength far exceeded the Spirit Transformation Realm.
Furthermore, he had the Heavenly Illusion Immortal Pearl protecting his body, so the gray spiritual light had little effect on him.
"It seems so. It looks like we must cross this gray spiritual light area."
Liu Ruoxi nodded and said.
"Miss Liu, let's go in!"
With a flash, Su Yun dashed into the range of the gray spiritual light.
Just as he expected, as soon as he entered the gray spiritual light area, a large amount of gray spiritual light began to invade his mind.
It wanted to drag him into an illusion.
However, the Myriad Dao Primordial Spirit within him blossomed with spiritual light, instantly releasing a powerful Divine Sense barrier that directly blocked the gray spiritual light.
The Heavenly Illusion Immortal Pearl also released a streak of colored spiritual light, dispersing the gray spiritual light around him.
At this time, a faint colored spiritual light barrier also appeared on the surface of Su Yun's body.
As soon as the surrounding gray spiritual light approached the colored spiritual light barrier, it instantly vanished.
Then, without slowing down, he rushed toward the mountain.
"The gray spiritual light actually has no effect on Su Yun?
Perhaps this gray spiritual light isn't that strong.
No, I need to catch up quickly too."
Liu Ruoxi's figure flashed as she dashed directly into the gray spiritual light area.
The powerful gray spiritual light all around instantly dragged her into an illusion.
After three breaths, she relied on her powerful Divine Sense to break the illusionary realm and regain consciousness.
"Is Su Yun's Divine Sense really that strong?
He didn't even fall into an illusion!"
Liu Ruoxi's eyes widened as she spoke in disbelief.
She had fallen into the illusion almost instantly just now. If it weren't for her Immaculate Sacred Body being able to see through falsehoods, she wouldn't have broken the illusionary realm so quickly.
At the same time, she also felt a slight sense of defeat in her heart.
After all, this was the first time her strength was inferior to a peer Cultivator.
Not only was her Physical Body not as powerful as Su Yun's, and her Physique not as numerous as Su Yun's, but even her Spell power and Divine Sense strength were far inferior.
"No, I can't admit defeat. I am the Yaochi Holy Maiden!"
Liu Ruoxi regained her composure and thought to herself.
Immediately, she flashed forward and increased her speed toward the mountain.
The closer she got to the mountain, the stronger the gray spiritual light became, and she fell into illusions multiple times.
However, she quickly broke through them each time.
As the two were rushing toward the mountain, other Cultivators also arrived outside the gray spiritual light area.
"What is this gray spiritual light?"
"I sense an illusion power within it. I expect it can pull people into an illusionary realm."
"Look, how can Su Yun rush directly to the foot of the mountain as if nothing is wrong?
Doesn't he fall into illusions?
Even that Girl in White Robes is stopping and starting."
"Whatever. There are likely many Cultivation Technique Legacies on that mountain, and I don't want to be the last one in.
The good Cultivation Techniques are definitely first come, first served."
Many Cultivators released various Spells and then dashed into the gray spiritual light. They thought the Spells they released would be able to resist the illusions, but unfortunately, the effect was minimal. Many Cultivators instantly fell into an illusion, and a small number of Cultivators with distorted expressions directly exploded and died.
This instantly frightened many Cultivators who arrived later, but there were still many who were not afraid, especially the Cultivators from the Ten Great Holy Lands.
They flashed into the gray spiritual light area, and although they also fell into illusions from time to time, they continued to move forward.
Soon, a large number of Cultivators entered the gray spiritual light, and only a small number of Cultivators chose to give up and explore other places... At the foot of the mountain.
Su Yun had already passed through that gray spiritual light area.
He could already see the Cultivation Technique Legacy areas in various parts of the mountain.
"The Immortal-grade Cultivation Technique Legacy should be at the mountain peak."
Su Yun looked toward the mountain peak and saw a place reflecting phantom images of stars filling the sky, where he could clearly sense the powerful stellar power within.
The Power of the Sun within his body began to boil.
"The Legacy area for the Star Shattering Void Finger should be right there."
After Su Yun confirmed the direction, he dashed toward the mountain peak.
He planned to obtain the Star Shattering Void Finger Legacy first and then see if there were any other Immortal-grade Cultivation Techniques.
As soon as he entered the mountain's range, Su Yun suddenly felt a wave of pressure.
This pressure was somewhat similar to the pressure inside the main hall deep within the Giant Stone Underground Palace; the further up he went, the stronger the pressure became.
In addition to the powerful pressure, the Cultivation Technique Legacy areas all over the mountain would also release Spells of various attributes to block Cultivators from ascending the mountain.
"Interesting. It seems there's also a test to climb this mountain; not just anyone can go up."
Su Yun waved his hand to block several Spells as he rushed toward the mountain peak.
