200: Immortal magic, nightmare!
“Here, take a good look. If there’s any technique you can learn, cultivate it well!”
After reading the first jade slip, Xia Fan casually bestowed it upon the two fierce beasts, Jin Gang and Jin Ling, for them to study. He then picked up the second jade slip and continued to investigate it with his soul power.
“Thank you, Great King!”
“Indeed, following the Great King means we’ll have meat to eat!”
“This is an immortal technique!”
The two beasts, Jin Gang and Jin Ling, were visibly excited. After earnestly thanking Xia Fan, they took the jade slip to examine it, hoping to quickly master the immortal techniques within.
Soon after, Xia Fan finished reading the second jade slip, but the immortal techniques inside were still ordinary. He once again bestowed it upon Jin Gang and Jin Ling.
“Tiger Brother, I want to learn too!”
Beside them, Magic Cat looked enviously at Jin Gang and Jin Ling, then took a jade slip and began to read it with great interest.
Although Xia Fan didn't think much of these immortal techniques, the Shu Mountain Sword Immortal and the various people who had claimed mountains as their own and were widely opening their doors to recruit disciples, only taught superficial knowledge. Xia Fan, on the other hand, had dozens of immortal techniques to bestow, far more than what those people taught.
As time passed, Xia Fan consecutively read several jade slips, but none contained anything that interested him, which made him feel a pang of disappointment. “Could it be that all the immortal techniques in here are similar?”
“Then my luck is really too poor, isn’t it?”
It wasn’t until the immortal technique in the sixth jade slip appeared that he showed a hint of curiosity, his eyes flickering. “Nightmare? Is it an immortal technique related to illusions?”
With this question in mind, Xia Fan carefully observed this immortal technique called [Nightmare]. He discovered that after cultivating this immortal technique, one could create an illusion within a large area, and this illusion could make those who fell under its spell live in the illusion for their entire lives.
Besides this, this immortal technique could also continuously provide soul power to the caster, helping the caster’s soul to break through!
Such a rare and powerful immortal technique was truly uncommon and worthy of surprise.
“Enhance soul power?”
The description of the immortal technique [Nightmare] delighted Xia Fan, and he immediately settled down, intending to cultivate this immortal technique.
As his soul power was exerted to its fullest, initiating cultivation, the jade slip even contained an image of an Immortal Monarch. This image personally demonstrated the cultivation method, which was very intuitive.
It was as if someone was giving you direct, personal instruction.
“Not bad, not bad. It’s exactly as described!”
After cultivating, Xia Fan was overjoyed, as he clearly felt that his soul power was indeed continuously improving. “Only such a technique can be called an immortal technique!”
“This trip was not in vain!”
Once he had fully mastered this immortal technique, he had already learned how to cast illusions.
According to the introduction of this immortal technique, this illusion technique could be cast on a group, changing a large area, and was not just aimed at a single person or fierce beast.
Looking at Jin Ling and Jin Gang not far away, Xia Fan’s lips curled slightly. He then silently cast [Nightmare], thinking to himself, “I wonder if they can distinguish between illusion and reality?”
“Let me try it out!”
“Eh?”
“How did the surrounding scenery change?”
Soon, Jin Ling cried out in alarm, his expression very flustered. “This… where exactly is this? Did the Great King take me away? But that’s not right. If the Great King took me, he would definitely say something.”
“This is simply not the Great King’s style of doing things!”
Beside him, Jin Gang was annoyed by his shouting and frowned, scolding, “What are you yelling about? Just now, the Great King bestowed so many immortal techniques. Instead of cultivating properly, you’re wasting time.”
“You’re truly ungrateful for the Great King’s cultivation!”
“No, look around you…”
Hearing this, Jin Gang suspiciously raised his head and also noticed that the surrounding environment was vastly different. After his gaze shifted, he even exclaimed in surprise, blurting out, “Boss, that Prisoner Bull actually dared to come again!”
“This old bull is truly audacious. Doesn’t he know the Great King’s power?”
At this moment, even Jin Gang cried out, “Great King, why don’t you let me deal with the Prisoner Bull? I just comprehended an immortal technique and have gained something.”
“Alright, alright, look how scared you two are.”
Xia Fan’s laughter finally came through, and at this moment, Jin Gang and Jin Ling suddenly found that the surrounding scenery changed again. Soon, it became familiar to them, and they immediately exclaimed, “Great King, what’s going on?”
“Was that… was that an illusion just now?”
“Did I suffer a cultivation deviation?”
Xia Fan did not answer the question immediately.
Seeing Jin Gang and Jin Ling’s reactions, he understood that the realism in the illusion he constructed was still very high. Moreover, this immortal technique [Nightmare] could be activated when others were not paying attention, or when they were in secluded cultivation, injured, or fatigued, and the effect would be even better.
Seeing that the two beasts were still looking scared and curious, Xia Fan said with a smile, “Those just now were merely illusions created by this King, cast with the help of an immortal technique.”
“Great King is mighty!”
“So that’s how it is. But if it was created by the Great King, then it’s perfectly normal.”
“Yes, with the Great King’s ability, he can certainly do this…”
Jin Gang and Jin Ling immediately breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, upon learning that such a realistic scene was actually an illusion, they were shocked but also held even greater reverence for Xia Fan.
“Alright, you two continue to comprehend the immortal techniques. Don’t waste this King’s good intentions!”
Xia Fan instructed the two beasts. Once they were re-immersed in the jade slips, he continued to cultivate Nightmare, while also flipping through the other jade slips… Meanwhile.
On the side of Kunlun Mountain near the Fighting Country, a white-haired man showed excitement on his face.
This white-haired man was Master Binghe.
Holding three jade slips in his hand, he muttered to himself in surprise, “This trip to the Immortal Realm, I managed to snatch these three. It’s truly a huge harvest!”
“Let me see what opportunities these three jade slips hold!”
As he spoke, Master Binghe quickly activated his soul power and probed into one of the jade slips. Soon after, he revealed an expression of wild joy. “It’s actually the immortal technique [Blackwater Ice Flame]!”
One must know that he cultivated the Path of Ice. However, ice and fire were always incompatible. Therefore, when encountering an opponent who cultivated the Path of Fire, if the opponent was weaker than him, it was fine. But once their strength was equal to or surpassed his, Master Binghe would be in trouble.
And this [Blackwater Ice Flame] was actually a combination of ice and fire, which was bound to be infinitely powerful.
Master Binghe could no longer conceal the surprise and fanaticism in his eyes. “Hahahaha, with such an immortal technique, I will definitely be able to rank among the strongest in the current era!”
