第一千四百四十五章 大雷音术

"Friend, why be in such a rush?"

"Oh, Brother Wu, please speak," Iron Zhouwang raised his eyebrows but his expression remained calm.

"While we are at the late stage of Separation and Union, working together does not necessarily mean invincibility. Although those powerful existences have mutual reservations and dare not take the treasures, they also do not want to give up easily."

"Could it be that they still have other plans?"

"Absolutely right, the original body cannot be taken, but the split soul can descend into the mortal world. The old man is unclear about the specific situation, but it seems there's an agreement among them: if a split soul obtains a treasure, it will not trigger conflicts in the interface," said the robed elder with a serious expression.

Iron Zhouwang's expression also turned grim, but after a moment of hesitation, he still argued out loud: "Even if the split soul descends into chaos, what difference does that make? It was said they cannot break through the constraints of the婴 stage due to the laws of heaven and earth. A mere existence at the level of an immaterial being is not something even a scattered immortal's split soul would fear."

"Then it would be great if so, but since the Netherworld Gate has been delayed and the laws of heaven and earth have slightly changed, previously it was the婴 stage, now the constraint cannot exceed the Separation and Union," said the robed elder with a sigh.

"Separation and Union? That means they are at our same level now?" Iron Zhouwang's expression changed dramatically.

"It may not be exactly the same." A strange look flashed in the robed elder's eyes: "Time is limited, even for powerful existences' split souls, it would take more than a hundred years to reach this stage. But breaking through Separation and Union is certain."

"That's good…" Iron Zhouwang exhaled with relief; the initial cultivators' strength was insignificant in their eyes.

"Hmph, what good? How can you use ordinary standards to measure those powerful cultivators? Although their cultivation levels are lower, their techniques are far more mysterious than ours. In a one-on-one battle, we may not have an absolute advantage, so that's why the old man waited for his subordinates to gather. Even without those fellows, there would still be many restrictions along the way."

Iron Zhouwang naturally knew nothing about all this. At this moment, he was fully focused on speeding up his journey. He wasn't in a hurry to obtain any treasures but wanted to verify if the map in his hand was genuine or fake.

If it were real, it could greatly help his mission.

Although he didn't know why the Netherworld Gate was chosen here, Penglai Mountain was indeed one of the three holy lands as legend had it.

A myriad of rare herbs grew abundantly. Many could be used to refine elixirs.

However, with Lin Xuan's strength and vision, they were not worth much. But for a low-ranking cultivator, it would certainly make them delirious with joy.

Lin Xuan glanced at a green bamboo. Originally just ordinary mundane wood, it had grown here in the spirit vein region for countless years, absorbing surrounding primordial energy and gradually transforming.

With his right hand, Lin Xuan waved, sending out a sword qi that easily penetrated the bamboo's defenses. The wound was smooth with faintly glowing fluorescence.

This thing, even if not used for refining artifacts, could be used to make ordinary talismans.

Lin Xuan was initially surprised but soon replaced it with eager anticipation. If路边 plants were so remarkable, what about true treasures?

With these thoughts, his flight speed unconsciously increased.

After about half an hour, Lin Xuan's light slowed as he stopped before a cave dwelling of ancient cultivators.

His pupils constricted; his expression was somewhat uncertain.

He had suffered greatly in that ancient cultivator's cave. He almost fell into the illusion trap. Could this be another trap?

Lin Xuan released his divine sense but was bounced back before reaching the entrance.

A whistling sound entered his ears, and a faint golden light screen suddenly appeared before him.

Clearly, the禁制 had been triggered.

This light screen was vastly different from what he had seen before; it even had countless blue electric arcs jumping on its surface.

And there were some Buddhist chants echoing.

Lin Xuan was initially shocked but then felt relieved. Although this禁制 seemed formidable, if it could be so easily triggered, it probably wasn't a trap.

In other words, misfortune turned to fortune. The map in the jade cylinder was genuine.

Although he had achieved his desired result, Lin Xuan's nature wouldn't allow him to leave empty-handed knowing there were treasures before him.

The light screen enveloped the entire cave dwelling with no gaps. To enter, one must first break it.

Lin Xuan thought this and flicked his sleeve, sending out the Green Fire Sword. The sword qi flashed, and surrounding primordial energy surged in.

Screams…

The air seemed torn apart as metallic clashing sounds echoed. Lin Xuan's pupils constricted; the shield didn't move at all, unlike the light screen but resembled a metal artifact.

"Southwest Buddha!"

A Buddhist chant entered his ears, causing his heart to tremble. It wasn't the Lion Roar divine technique but what was rumored to be the Great Thunder Sound Technique.

Lin Xuan had only seen this technique in ancient texts; it had long since disappeared from the mortal world.

The sudden shock was most effective at disturbing one's mind.

After several breaths, Lin Xuan recovered from his dizziness. His expression turned extremely grim. In a高手 confrontation, every millisecond counted. If there were enemies ahead, he might have already died seven or eight times by now.

Fortunately, this Great Thunder Sound Technique should be left behind by the cave's owner before their death, using divine power to integrate it with the禁制.

But what was his purpose?

If malicious, other attacks would accompany it. After all, while the Great Thunder Sound Technique could temporarily cause dizziness, it wasn't enough to defeat an enemy.

Lin Xuan shook his head; although clever, he couldn't fathom this Buddhist monk's intentions.

A smile appeared on his lips. If he couldn't understand, why waste brainpower? However, this monk seemed harmless.

Despite these thoughts, Lin Xuan flicked his sleeve and summoned the Black Gold Dragon Shield for added caution.

However, how to break the禁制 was still a matter of thought. Since even the Green Fire Sword had no effect, among his treasures, only the Magic Bond Sword might be able to shatter this light screen.

But the Supreme Divine Treasure's power was too great; he couldn't control it easily. A single mistake could destroy the cave dwelling before him.

Lin Xuan was at a loss for a moment.

Just as he hesitated, a pleasant voice entered his ears: "Young Master, let me try."

Before the words were out, a white light flashed, and Yue'er emerged from the Heavenly Mechanism Mansion.

"Mm?"

Lin Xuan was slightly surprised. He knew Yue'er's divine techniques and treasures well; nothing seemed particularly powerful enough to break this禁制.
