Chapter 52: The Great War Begins

Luo Yao looked at the Palace inside the Departing Water Pearl; although half of it was broken and damaged, parts of it were still usable.

Little A Li acted like a tour guide, flying in front of Luo Yao and introducing the situation of the Palace to her.

Actually, there wasn't much to introduce, after all, every room in the Palace was empty, but Luo Yao did not interrupt A Li, and she also learned that currently the Practice Room and the Alchemy Room were still well-preserved.

Not only that, the Spirit Gathering Array in the Alchemy Room was also intact; according to A Li, once the Spirit Gathering Array was activated, the spiritual energy inside would be ten times more dense.

Originally, the spiritual energy in the space was already denser than the spiritual energy outside, plus the Spirit Gathering Array, it would absolutely be more suitable for cultivation than the so-called Grotto-Heavens and Blessed Lands.

"Master, if you find the Nine Nether Departing Water, or other fragments of the Departing Water Pearl, this space will be able to continue expanding."

Finally, that meant she had obtained the legendary Space Magic Treasure.

However, Qi Refining Stage 9 was not bad either; next time she met that surname Luo, she could resolve her faster.

…………

Luo Yao's heart immediately sank to the bottom; if there were only one or two people, she might be able to win, but four or five with comparable cultivation, then it would be impossible to be their match.

Ahead, several cultivators wearing uniform robes appeared, holding Long Swords.

So, at this time, if she met Zhang Yan again, who would win and who would lose was still uncertain.

Luo Yao's face immediately changed; she hadn't expected it to be so fast, she had only gone to the Ancient Cultivator Cave Abode, and the situation outside had already developed to this extent?

The Ziguang Sect cultivators didn't care about Luo Yao's thoughts, but started discussing, "Who will make the move? Although there is only one person, as long as we kill her and bring back the identity proof, there will be a reward."

He was just a tiny bit away from breaking through to Qi Refining Layer Seven; he didn't know if it was because the Pill had been stored for too long, causing the medicinal power to leak, or some other reason, leading to him being just one step away from breaking through to Qi Refining Layer Seven.

A Li also saw Xiao Kui's miserable state, hid fearfully behind Luo Yao, poked out a small head, and covered her eyes with both hands, but her eyes were peering at Xiao Kui through the gaps in her hands.

This was too far from her; this was the legendary Divine Water, said to be a Divine Water between Yin and Yang; just one drop could cause the living to die and the Dao to vanish, and one drop could bring the dead back to life.

"Don't you fear triggering a great war between the two factions?"

Similarly, the Departing Water Pearl was also forged using Nine Nether Departing Water as the main ingredient, combined with various immortal materials.

Zhang Yan, this hidden threat, must be eliminated; now that he is seriously injured, it is the perfect time to deal with him.

This trip to the Cave Abode seemed very fast and very smooth, but in reality, more than half a month had already passed.

After all, the Departing Water Pearl was originally an Immortal Artifact, capable of automatic repair.

"Just that? Great War? The battle has already started long ago!"

However, Luo Yao did not know that not far from her, inside the Stone Room, Zhao Yang was in seclusion breaking through.

It was just a pity that Zhao Yang had good luck; Luo Yao did not discover him.

Zhao Yang, who had consumed the Boundary-Breaking Pill, was at the critical moment of breaking through.

Luo Yao appeared calm on the surface, inquiring about the situation, but deep in her heart she was pondering how to escape from these people's hands.

With the Space Magic Treasure, even if pursued by Foundation Establishment Stage or Golden Core Stage cultivators, she could rely on the Space Magic Treasure to save her life.

After all, as a cultivator, the skill of Alchemy must be mastered; even if Luo Yao had no talent, she could use quantity to produce good Pills.

Luo Yao shook her head, and then took Xiao Kui out; now that she had the Space Magic Treasure, Xiao Kui naturally did not need to stay in the Storage Ring.

This was a existence even more precious than the legendary Immortal Artifacts.

Secondly, the Star Frost Sand that she wanted had also been found, and the quantity was even more than imagined.

So, if Luo Yao found the Nine Nether Departing Water, the Departing Water Pearl could use the primordial power of the Nine Nether Departing Water to slowly repair itself and expand again.

Additionally, she had also obtained the God-Slaying Talisman, but unfortunately it had been used up.

"Ziguang Sect?"

With a joyful mood, Luo Yao quickly flew towards Xuanyuan Sect; she planned to find Yan Jie to get some Spirit Herb seeds to plant in the space.

However, for Luo Yao, the harvest still exceeded expectations.

"What do you want to do?"

"Could he have already left?"

There were four or five people in front, the lowest cultivation was Qi Refining Stage 5, and the rest were Qi Refining Stage 6 and Qi Refining Layer Seven.

"Is she a Puppet?" A Li's remaining memories quickly recognized Xiao Kui's true form, "We can use Xuanjin Iron to repair her body, then she won't get injured anymore!"

Jiuyou Xianzi was also created based on the Divine Water obtained, the Nine Nether Departing Water.

"What?"

This was a treasure hundreds of times more precious than the Thousand-Mile Teleportation Talisman; the Thousand-Mile Teleportation Talisman's destination was random, and it could only be used once, but the Space Magic Treasure was different, usable an infinite number of times.

"What do you want to do?" The Ziguang Sect cultivators sneered, "Naturally, to kill people!"

If someone appeared to disturb at this moment, Zhao Yang would not only fail to break through, but might also go mad from internal energy deviation.

Luo Yao hadn't even broken through to Foundation Establishment Stage yet; even collecting materials for her Natal Dharma Treasure was so difficult, let alone the legendary Divine Water.

"Master, she..."

Luo Yao silently memorized this name, and then left the space.

"Let's talk about this later!"

Or was it someone else?

Finally, Luo Yao sighed and decided to leave the Cave Abode; this Cave Abode had been fully explored, the most important treasures and the things she wanted had already been obtained, the other Stone Rooms were basically explored too, and staying there was meaningless.

"Xuanjin Iron?"

More importantly, Xiao Kui was seriously injured.

If she had chased after him at the beginning, she might have been able to eliminate him, but now some time had passed; he might have already escaped, or found a place to hide, or even his injuries might have already healed.

More importantly, Zhang Yan was unknown where he had gone.

Luo Yao frowned; she didn't expect to meet people from Ziguang Sect here; the relationship between the two was superficially cooperative, but there was actually a lot of struggle underneath.

The matter was actually quite coincidental; the Nine Nether Departing Water Art that Luo Yao obtained was exactly the cultivation method practiced by the owner of the Departing Water Pearl, Jiuyou Xianzi.

However, Luo Yao took the opportunity while they were speaking, turned around, and ran.

After Luo Yao left the Cave Abode, after an unknown amount of time passed, Zhao Yang finally opened his eyes.

First, obtain a decent Defense Magical Treasure: the Colored Cloud Kerchief.

"Nine Nether Separating Water?"

"Qi Refining Ninth Layer!"

Luo Yao's spirit sharpened; without hesitation, she summoned the Colored Cloud Kerchief to block that attack, then narrowed her eyes to look ahead.

"You wouldn't happen to be from the mountains, would you?"

Luo Yao frowned; she was unsure who had left this pile of ash, but it was either Zhang Yan or Zhao Yang.

Luo Yao quickly pursued in the direction Zhang Yan had departed, yet even after releasing her Divine Sense, she could not find Zhang Yan's figure; she circled more than half of the Cave Abode and still found no trace of Zhang Yan.

However, upon hearing those words, those people laughed even louder.

Suddenly, a beam of cold light shot from the distance toward Luo Yao.

And the master's ultimate trump card had also been exhausted.

Luo Yao left the Cave Abode and hurried toward the Xuanyuan Sect.

But these gains were already a huge profit.

Luo Yao frowned and demanded, "Now is the critical moment for both scrolls; with just any trivial spark, a great war between the two sects could erupt, which is why Luo Yao said this."

"Whoosh!"

"This is..."

Luo Yao frowned, then discovered traces of battle within the Passage, with a pile of ash still on the ground.

Disciples of the two sides often fought, so upon seeing this group, Luo Yao's expression immediately turned unpleasant.

"Where do you think you're running?"

Now, the cultivators of the Ziguang Sect stopped debating who would strike first and instead surged forward all at once.
