Chapter 2367: Volume 11: The True Immortal Descends to the World, Chapter 2349: Twin Cauldrons
As soon as he finished speaking, the burly man in the brocade robe gave an order, and nearly a hundred disciples beside him shouted in unison, each revealing magic tools of various styles.
These magic tools, whether banners or plates, were clearly a type of formation-setting apparatus. At the same time, a series of incantations began.
Suddenly, colorful light flashed above their heads, and a yellowish light formation appeared out of thin air. After spinning, more than a dozen white beams of light were sprayed out, instantly turning into a straight line and striking the giant gate.
A series of rumbling sounds erupted, and countless white runes flashed and splashed wildly on the gate, but the giant gate remained motionless, with no intention of opening at all.
The others couldn't help but be somewhat shocked.
Seeing this, the burly man in the brocade robe didn't get angry but laughed instead.
"Interesting. I didn't expect that just a single gate would be so difficult to open. It seems I have to use some real methods."
After saying this, the burly man in the brocade robe immediately pinched a seal with one hand, muttered incantations, and pointed at the light formation in the air.
With a "clanging" sound, the color of the light formation changed abruptly, turning into a silvery hue. At the same time, cold light flashed inside, revealing countless small silver swords; a glance showed there were thousands of them.
"Go!"
The big man gave a low shout and flicked his sleeve toward the giant gate.
The sound of breaking through the air erupted from the light formation, and all the small silver swords surged out like a tide, strangely condensing into one in the void, transforming into a thousand-foot-long giant silver sword. After a flash, it slashed fiercely at the giant gate in the distance.
A piercing, shrill sound!
A silver line lit up on the surface of the giant gate.
Then, after the entire sky trembled, the golden and silver runes on the surface of the giant gate flashed, and a slit slowly opened from the silver line.
Although it didn't look wide, it was enough for people to enter.
The burly man in the brocade robe was overjoyed. Colorful light flashed on his body, wrapping all the disciples beside him, and he turned into a silver rainbow that shot through the air. After a blur, he disappeared into the giant gate.
And just at this moment, Fairy Huaxi suddenly stomped her foot. She actually flew out with Ancestor Wugou beside her, combining into a cyan-red rainbow, and shot toward the slit of the giant gate.
With a muffled "bang" sound.
The rainbow was bounced away by an invisible giant force more than a hundred feet away from the giant gate.
Then, the giant gate closed on its own amidst a "rumbling" sound. Golden and silver light flashed on its surface, and the slit disappeared without a trace.
The bounced cyan-red rainbow just circled, and the figures of Fairy Huaxi and Ancestor Wugou appeared inside.
The charming woman showed a look of surprise, while the man beside her had a blank expression.
"It was my recklessness. I originally wanted to save some effort and borrow Sect Master Feng's power to enter directly. Now it seems that won't work, and I have to take action myself. Husband, you open this gate," the charming woman said with a light laugh after her beautiful eyes flickered.
The Ancestor Wugou beside her said the word "Good," his body was suddenly shrouded in a mass of purple light, and a giant hand slowly slapped toward the giant gate.
With a "puff" sound, the seemingly ordinary palm suddenly expanded wildly in the wind, turning into a purple light hand the size of a pavilion. With one strike, it smashed fiercely onto the giant gate.
With a muffled sound, ten thousand rays of light flashed on the giant gate, and a giant hole with a diameter of a foot appeared out of thin air.
Fairy Huaxi's face lit up with joy, and she immediately flew in with Ancestor Wugou, turning into a cyan-red rainbow again and flashing inside.
The giant gate continued to emit a low buzzing sound, and the hole quickly closed to its original state at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"It seems that only one group can enter at a time. Since that's the case, we three old fellows won't be polite either," one of the three withered old men said with a strange laugh.
Then, the three of them swayed their bodies simultaneously and appeared in front of the giant gate, each extending a palm to push the giant gate. Three massive giant forces surged out.
A rumbling sound erupted immediately, and the originally tightly closed giant gate slowly opened. The figures of the three old men blurred and entered inside.
"Brother Han, do you want to go first?" Seeing so many people had already entered the giant gate, Xiao Ming suddenly asked Han Li with a smile.
"Since Daoist Xiao is so humble, then I won't be polite. Daoist Xue Po, let's go in too," Han Li replied calmly, then turned his head and gave an order to Xue Po behind him.
"Yes, Senior," Xue Po replied with her head bowed.
Han Li flicked his sleeve, and after golden light rolled on his body, he wrapped the woman Xue Po inside. Then, his shoulders swayed slightly, and he took a step forward.
With a "pssh" sound, the void in front fluctuated slightly.
Han Li's body blurred in the golden light, and he actually disappeared with Xue Po in a flash.
The next moment, fluctuations appeared near the giant gate, and Han Li and Xue Po appeared one after another.
Han Li lifted his leg and walked toward the giant gate in a grand manner.
Xue Po naturally followed closely behind, not daring to leave by even half a step.
With a "pssh" sound.
A layer of silver flames rose on Han Li's body, instantly wrapping him from head to toe into a fire man, and he flashed directly into the giant gate.
An incredible scene appeared.
Hearing a nearly inaudible light sound of "sizzle," a human-shaped hole appeared out of thin air on the giant gate, with traces of melting all around the edges.
Han Li actually pierced through the giant gate as if it were nothing.
Xue Po behind him, although she had long known that Han Li's divine abilities had reached an incredible level, was still stunned for a moment by him breaking through the giant gate so understatedly. But immediately after her charming body moved, she followed closely and entered inside.
The human-shaped hole slowly disappeared.
Almost at the same time, the Five Blood Union Sons in the sky let out a long howl, and suddenly turned into a sheet of blood light, rolling down from where they stood...
After a while, only Xiao Ming and the other two remained at the edge of the basin.
"Brother Xiao, I'll go in too," Lady Wanhua finally couldn't help but say.
"Daoist Wanhua, don't be too impatient. Do you really think only we have come to this place? Someone else has arrived, but they are just unwilling to show themselves and meet us," Xiao Ming laughed, then suddenly turned his head and said meaningfully toward a certain direction.
"What, someone else is hiding on the side?" Lady Wanhua and Daoist Qingping were what kind of people; hearing this, they immediately looked in the same direction subconsciously.
"Don't worry about these things. As long as they don't hinder our actions, let them do as they please if they want to wait for a rabbit. Besides, I'm not the only one who discovered it; others are pretending not to know, so why should we meddle? Let's go, let's go down," Xiao Ming withdrew his gaze, shook his head, and flicked his sleeve. A mass of silver light shot out from it, and after a sway, it transformed into a giant ring of light with a diameter of more than ten feet. After a sway, it crashed into the giant gate with great momentum...
After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, in the void that Xiao Ming and the others had originally looked at, faint fluctuations appeared, and a blood-colored human figure emerged.
On the seemingly blurred face of the blood shadow, a pair of pale green eyes looked coldly at the giant gate that had returned to normal, not knowing what was in its heart.
And just at this moment, the sound of breaking through the air came from the distant sky, and several more escape lights appeared.
The blood shadow immediately turned its eyes, looked at these escape lights, and after its pupils narrowed, a hint of indescribable bloodthirst emerged. Its body twisted, and it suddenly turned into a faint blood light and greeted them.
However, after just a few breaths of time, screams erupted in the distant sky, and several escape lights all dispersed and disappeared in the thick bloodthirst.
"This is the seal personally placed by the Heavenly Cauldron Immortal. It really looks extraordinary," Han Li looked at the thick light curtain composed of light-filled five-colored spiritual scripts before him, a hint of admiration appearing on his face.
This seal blocking the entire entrance was hundreds of miles long, so after entering the gray space behind the giant gate, everyone acted separately, choosing a section of the seal to break on their own at a great distance from each other.
Therefore, in this void, only Xue Po and Han Li were quietly hovering there.
"It is said that this seal was personally placed by the Heavenly Cauldron Immortal one year before his ascension, almost representing the extreme of seal-type restrictions in our Spirit World. If one really wants to break in by force, unless a Mahayana cultivator is willing to spend a hundred years using Nascent Soul fire to refine it bit by bit, otherwise, no matter how great their divine abilities are, they cannot enter. But the time this palace appears in the world is extremely short. Once a month passes, it will disappear again on time. The keys to the Heavenly Cauldron Palace have only appeared in recent years. Before they appeared, even if one broke the giant gate and entered here, one could only watch this seal helplessly, unable to take any treasures from it. Later, after the replica keys came out, the number of people who could break in increased a bit," Xue Po respectfully introduced from the side.
"If this seal is truly this powerful, I really do want to try forcing my way through it." After hearing this, Han Li's face revealed a look of interest.
After Xue Po heard this, she was about to answer with a charming smile, but from a certain direction, an unusual fluctuation that shocked the entire space came, and then the seal before them trembled slightly, and all the spiritual scripts flashed wildly, appearing and disappearing.
But in an instant, the light curtain before them returned to calm, as if the previous anomaly had never happened.
"Someone broke in so quickly," Han Li's expression changed slightly, revealing a solemn expression for the first time.
"It must be that someone used a real key. If it were a replica, it would be impossible to break the seal so quickly," Xue Po also said with a solemn expression.
"A real key? Forget it. Since time is tight, I won't try anything anymore. What is the shortcut you mentioned? You should say it now," Han Li frowned and asked Xue Po.
"Senior, can you take out the Void Heaven Cauldron?" Xue Po asked in return.
"Void Heaven Cauldron? Of course, no problem," Han Li replied without hesitation. After a flip of his hand, a mass of cyan light appeared, and after condensing, it turned into an ancient small cauldron.
It was precisely the Void Heaven Treasure Cauldron.
Xue Po looked at the small cauldron, suddenly opened her sandalwood mouth, and a mass of cyan light also flew out. After spinning, it also turned into a cyan small cauldron.
"Eh, this is..." Han Li was slightly stunned when he saw this scene.
"Senior, the object in my hand is called the Void Emperor Cauldron. It is also a replica key, and it is the most successful replica, possessing almost 70% of the original's efficacy," Xue Po said slowly.
