39: Weird wedding, Emperor Huangquan is a woman?

Yellow Springs Cave Abode.

The three lives stone emitted a clear radiance, establishing a Restriction zone.

No matter what Gu Changsheng did, he still couldn't Breakthrough.

"The Yellow Springs Great Emperor's handiwork is truly remarkable... Without the Opportunity, one doesn't even have the qualification to enter."

Gu Changsheng thought of Lord Qiantang; his three hundred years of planning were probably also focused on this Immortal Cave.

Unfortunately, he still failed at the last moment.

Even Lord Qiantang's corpse decayed completely within a few breaths after his death.

Otherwise, he might have been able to use the portrait to uncover a trace of the secrets of this place.

"This profound light Restriction, besides meeting the Yellow Springs Great Emperor's pre-set qualification requirements, can only be broken by force."

Violent cracking is the most common way to break Restrictions.

The most direct method is to use force to break the Dao.

Mobilizing Nether Qi, bombarding it indiscriminately, using one force to break all Dao, to achieve the purpose of breaking the Restriction.

Unfortunately, this Restriction was left by the Yellow Springs Great Emperor, and no matter how strong a Spirit Building Stage cultivator was, trying to break it would be a pipe dream.

Besides this, for violent cracking, the Five Elements Restriction Breaking Divine Light is the top choice; this Divine Ability can be called the supreme method for breaking Restrictions.

Once cast, it can easily break Protective Aura and all kinds of Restrictions.

If cultivated to a profound level, it can even pierce through Immortal Cave portals, creating loopholes, allowing one to sneak in without anyone knowing.

In the Black Mountain Old Demon's memories, there was once a treasure-hunting rat demon who cultivated this method.

Starting from stealing a demon king's tomb, he devoured countless Heaven And Earth Treasure, eventually growing into a peerless demon, known as the Heaven Stealing Demon King.

Until he stumbled in a Yang Spirit Realm mighty one's Immortal Cave and was killed by a single palm strike.

Unfortunately, the cultivation method for the secret art of Five Elements Restriction Breaking Divine Light was not mentioned in the Yuanshan Body Fusion Technique.

It only briefly mentioned a few Materials for cultivating this art; the sheer quantity and preciousness of them were enough to make anyone with intentions shrink back in fear.

"Now there's only one path left..."

Gu Changsheng looked towards the Yellow Springs Mountain pulse.

Since this Immortal Cave was built relying on Yellow Springs Mountain, then if this mountain is refined, the Immortal Cave will inevitably have a loophole.

"Perhaps in the future, with the Yuanshan Body Fusion Technique, I could even try my hand at grave robbing..."

Gu Changsheng clenched his hand in the Void Realm, grabbing towards the Yellow Springs Mountain pulse.

As the Yuanshan Body Fusion Technique was pushed to its limit, an endless supply of Nine Nether Yellow Springs Evil was extracted.

Unlike before, when he had to hide, the commotion now was much greater.

Yellow Springs Mountain shook violently, as if a Dragon was overturning.

Countless rocks swayed, tumbled, and fell down the mountain.

The secluded springs and rivers spread across Yellow Springs Mountain became turbulent and dangerous, overflowing and eroding the banks.

"If Yellow Springs Mountain is truly refined and absorbed by me, the Netherworld Beast and Yin-attribute Heaven And Earth Treasure born here will be destroyed... But what does that have to do with me?"

Gu Changsheng watched with cold eyes as streams of Nine Nether Yellow Springs Evil surged into his body.

Visibly, the size of Yellow Springs Mountain was shrinking.

[Experience +100]

[Experience +100]

...The Yuanshan Body Fusion Technique operated rapidly, and his cultivation increased like a rocket.

At the same time, Gu Changsheng's body strength also steadily improved, a golden body spontaneously appearing, and the outermost Asura Dharma Body developed dense black scale armor.

A thick Nine Nether Yellow Springs Evil Qi circulated on it.

He clenched his fist, and a surging, immense force erupted.

"My strength has increased by a full ten thousand jin.

Now my strength is a force of ten thousand jun."

One jun is thirty jin.

A force of ten thousand jun is three hundred thousand jin of strength.

Adding the burning of the Blood Dragon, which temporarily increases strength by one hundred thousand jin, he could probably punch an ordinary True Core Realm to death.

"Very good, my Body Refining cultivation has Breakthrough again, giving birth to black scale armor.

Thus, let's call it the second turn of the golden body."

The second turn is not the limit of the golden body; as more and more top-tier famous mountains are integrated, the body's strength will inevitably usher in a Breakthrough.

Ten days later, Yellow Springs Mountain had shrunk considerably.

Initially ten thousand zhang high, it was now less than eight thousand zhang.

The three lives stone hanging above the Immortal Cave was tottering.

Finally, after Gu Changsheng's Qi and blood erupted, it exploded with a bang, and a fist-sized gray stone fell into his palm.

"three lives stone... the companion stone of Yellow Springs Mountain.

Legend has it that the light it emits, with one glance, can see the past, with two glances, can observe the present, and with three glances, can see the future.

Unfortunately, this one has been refined into a Restriction Magical Artifact.

Once the Immortal Cave's profound light was broken, this three lives stone also became useless."

With a squeeze of his fingers, the three lives stone turned into powder and scattered through his fingers.

Gu Changsheng pushed open the bronze gate and stepped into the Immortal Cave.

Unlike the eerie ghost Qi outside, the Immortal Cave was filled with blooming flowers and the singing of birds; Heaven And Earth Treasure that were hard to find outside were piled up here like common cabbages by the roadside.

It almost made Gu Changsheng wonder if the sign at the Immortal Cave entrance was hung incorrectly.

"This is the Immortal Cave's medicine garden..."

Gu Changsheng was very envious.

He didn't recognize ninety-nine percent of the Heaven And Earth Treasure in the medicine garden.

The only Spirit Medicine he recognized was called Purple Qi Dragon Ginseng, ranked as a Earth-grade Spirit Medicine.

After consumption, it can condense purple blood within the body, and is a main ingredient for cultivating the Divine Ability—Purple Qi from the East.

Purple Qi lingered on its roots, covered with circles of purple Qi golden patterns.

Each additional circle of purple Qi golden patterns represented a hundred years of growth.

So many circles, there must be over a hundred of them.

Spirit Medicine over ten thousand years old?

Just thinking about it was terrifying.

Even Cave Profound Ancestors would fight for it with his life if he were here.

Unfortunately, the medicine garden had Restriction methods.

Once triggered, it would not only kill invading enemies but also self-destruct the Spirit Medicine in the garden.

"It seems that finding the cultivation method for the Five Elements Restriction Breaking Divine Light needs to be put on the agenda as soon as possible..."

Calming his mind, Gu Changsheng passed through the medicine garden.

Before long, a wedding hall appeared before his eyes.

Everywhere were large red wedding invitations, red silk lanterns.

But the guests inside the wedding hall were stacks of paper figures painted with pale white makeup.

Their expressions were lifelike, exuding an indescribable eeriness.

Suddenly, Gu Changsheng noticed a crystal coffin placed in the center of the main hall, containing a beautiful woman in red.

Unlike the paper figure guests, the woman in the coffin was incredibly lifelike, her skin seemingly breakable with a touch.

A thought suddenly popped into his mind.

Could it be... The Black Mountain Old Demon's memories never mentioned the Yellow Springs Great Emperor's gender.

"Something's not right..."

Gu Changsheng frowned, clutching the soul return talisman tightly in his palm, sweat seeping out.

If the situation turned bad, he would crush it and escape immediately.

'Even if this woman isn't the Yellow Springs Great Emperor, she's probably closely related to him... Once she awakens, she's definitely an existence that can easily kill me in an instant.'

When facing the uncanny, avoiding contact is the right path.

Gu Changsheng felt a desire to retreat.

'At most, I'll wait another sixty years to kill the resurrected Qiantang Dragon King... Staying here any longer is dangerous... Sixty years is enough for me to cultivate to the True Core Realm.

During this time, I'll also cultivate the Five Elements Restriction Breaking Divine Light; by then, I'll completely clean out this Immortal Cave...'

Gu Changsheng gently paced, walking out of the wedding hall.

Just as he took his seventh step, a 'creak' came from behind him, which was the sound of the coffin lid lifting and rubbing.

Immediately, his hair stood on end, and cold sweat drenched his entire body.

Gu Changsheng's eyes widened, and in his perception, an extra figure appeared behind him.

However, he dared not look back.

Among many strange occurrences, there were special taboos.

The most common one was not to make eye contact!

Escape!

Nether Qi surged wildly in his palm, pouring into the soul return talisman, which he then crushed violently, a warm Qi enveloping his entire body.

The three-foot space vibrated, pushing aside the Nether Qi, revealing the outside scene.

The familiar sight made Gu Changsheng breathe a sigh of relief.

'Good... The soul return talisman still works... I'll come back in sixty years...'

However, in the next instant, a faint light pierced through the soul return talisman's Yang Qi, and surging Nether Qi once again filled the space.

Gu Changsheng opened his palm to look; the soul return talisman had shattered into several pieces, without a trace of spiritual light.

Damn it!

A bad feeling instantly arose in his heart.

"Little thief, is my Immortal Cave a place you can come and go as you please?"

The beautiful woman in red gently parted her red lips, her voice cold.
