I have Immortality In The Cultivation World

Chapter 152: Chapter 152 The Four Spirits Holy Temple

In the depths of the vast mountains.

Thunderclap Peak.

Where gale force winds and thunderstorms descend all year round, devoid of life, hence the name.

The twilight was vast and obscure.

A Thunderhawk demon circled the mountaintop, eying the Lightning Stone on the mountain, and swooped down at great speed to swallow it.

The demon's aura crushed the Lightning Stone, and its body flickered with crackling electricity, becoming even more formidable.

Screech!

The Thunderhawk spotted another Lightning Stone and let out a delighted cry. However, halfway through its dive, the ground rumbled and split open.

It started a few yards wide but quickly spread to the entire Thunderclap Peak, then on to a dozen surrounding mountains.

From the crack appeared a majestic palace, built entirely of azure jade stone. From high above, the Thunderhawk saw it resembling a giant tortoise spanning over a hundred miles, lying on the ground.

"A relic? Inheritance!"

Without a second thought, the Thunderhawk dove toward the tortoise-like palace.

As it approached within a hundred yards, a water barrier manifested out of thin air, blocking the Thunderhawk from entering.

With the opportunity at hand, the Thunderhawk was unwilling to miss out. It flapped its wings, sending down dozens of lightning strikes, yet not even a ripple appeared on the water screen.

At this moment.

Several other bird demons flew over, either casting spells to strike the water barrier or turning to fly away, to report to the Demon King for a reward.

Seeing this, the Thunderhawk sighed in resignation and transformed into lightning, flying towards the Broken Sky Ravine.

In less than half an hour.

Roar!

A tiger's roar that shocked all directions stirred up a sudden gust of wind, toppling those demons who still refused to give up on the water barrier.

A terrifying presence descended; both great and lesser demons prostrated on the ground, quivering.

"Giggle! Little tiger, you still love to show off," came a crisp laughter, like a spring breeze turning into rain, dispelling the tiger's menace. A charming silhouette materialized in mid-air, wearing a pure white palace dress, enveloped by a layer of pink gauze.

Before her voice faded, a burly man with a tiger's head and a human body flew over from a distance, black and white patterned wings on his back, his fierce tiger eyes sweeping over the woman.

"Hmph! Old fox, what are you doing in White Tiger Ridge's territory?"

"This lady was just returning to Moyun City with some wine when I happened upon the news of a relic appearing, so I came to have a look," said Hu JiuZhi, taking out a large wine gourd and taking several hearty gulps, not minding the glistening wine drenching her clothes, revealing her creamy skin underneath.

Tiger Xiong glanced at her then quickly gathered his composure, knowing better than to mess with this fox demon.

"Hu DaoFriend, why don't we join forces and try to break the Formation and Prohibition? Whoever gets in first can seize the advantage," he suggested.

"Don't even dream about it!"

Hu JiuZhi spoke, "Little tiger, instead of frequenting Moyun City for Dual Cultivation, you should read more about our demon heritage. Do you have any idea what this relic is?"

Tiger Xiong scrutinized the tortoise-shaped structure, pondering for a moment before saying, "With such a commotion, it can only be the legendary Xuanwu!"

"You've got some insight," Hu JiuZhi replied.

Putting away her frivolous demeanor, she solemnly said, "If I'm not mistaken, this is the legendary Four Spirits Holy Hall, built by the combined efforts of the four Ancient Demon Saints, a place for the bloodline heritage of our kind!"

"Demon Saint!"

Tiger Xiong's eyes widened, filled with both greed and fear. Such an inheritance was something worth fighting to the death for.

Let alone the thought of offering it to the elders in his clan, even if his own father stood before him, Tiger Xiong would still dispute it over life and death.

Hu JiuZhi stated, "This Demon Saint relic cannot be broken by the likes of us. Let's wait for the elders from the clan to arrive, then discuss how to open a way in."

As they spoke.

Two more figures with wings flew in, both winged tigers.

The two demons greeted Hu JiuZhi and, after hearing about the relic from Tiger Xiong, waited in the air.

...

Mo Cloud Cave.

"So, by myself, I have sacrificed the lifespan of a million creatures?"

Zhou Yi hurriedly checked the Longevity Dao Fruit, only to find no changes whatsoever, calm and steady as an ancient well, unaltered through the ages.

"Just a Black Tortoise, nothing more than that!"

Feeling reassured, Zhou Yi walked around the Black Tortoise shell twice, feeling a blood connection, presumably from the effect of the Blood Sacrifice transforming from desolation to revival.

"Let's test its defensive capabilities first!"

He took out the Overlord's Mace and struck the shell dozens of times with a clanging sound, but the shell showed no changes. Then he cast various Lightning Methods, and even tried flooding and burning it with all kinds of methods, yet it was still impossible to leave even the slightest mark.

"Indeed, a fine treasure; if I refine it into a defensive magical item, wouldn't I be invincible?"

Zhou Yi pointed at the shell and said, "Shrink, shrink, shrink..."

The millstone-sized Black Tortoise Shell quickly diminished to a size of three feet in diameter, appearing like a dark green upside-down iron pot.

Zhou Yi's form shifted, and he slid into the shell, which fit perfectly.

At that moment.

The Turtle Prime Minister came rushing in, about to speak, and saw Zhou Yi carrying a large turtle shell on his back.

"My lord, how come you look just like us?"

"Daring to intrude without announcement, do you wish to partake of the Spirit Ginseng?"

Zhou Yi stored the Black Tortoise Shell into his storage bag; though it looked inelegant, it was not at all diminishing when it came to saving one's life. Once he found a method to refine a body-protection magical item, he would be able to craft a Supreme Treasure that he could deploy or withdraw at will.

The Turtle Prime Minister hurriedly explained, "My lord, we've just received a message from the Dragon Palace; all Demon Kings must head to Greenwave Pond within a day."

"Discovered so quickly, it seems the Four Spirits Sanctuary is located in the Hundred Thousand Mountains!"

Zhou Yi had long been aware that the sanctuary had opened but did not know its exact location; it could be anywhere in the Nine Continents and Four Seas.

He had never had an interest in adventures like treasure hunting, so he did not pay much attention to the Four Spirits Sanctuary, especially since it was a heritage site for the demon race.

"Hand this map over to Golden Eagle and Black Tiger. Memorize it thoroughly and remember to destroy it after. I'll go take a stroll in the Dragon Palace with the Ox."

After entrusting the partial map of the sanctuary to the Turtle Prime Minister, Zhou Yi transformed into a streak of light together with the Ox, heading toward Greenwave Pond.

...

Greenwave Pond.

The surface of the lake split open, and from time to time, a streak of light fell through, heading straight for Bibo Palace after entering the Dragon Palace.

Inside the hall, there were already ten figures present, with the foremost seat empty, as Dragon Lord Ao Cang had yet to arrive.

The Demon Kings whispered among themselves, discussing and speculating about the reason for the summons.

Zhou Yi and the Ox landed in the palace and found adjacent seats on the left side to sit down, right next to the Jade Fang Demon King.

"Fellow Daoist Yu Ya, do you know why Dragon Lord has summoned us?" Zhou Yi did not wait for the other party to speak before asking first.

"I'm not sure, I haven't heard of any urgent matters recently."

Yu Ya wrapped his nose around, swallowing the Spirit Fruit from the table into his mouth before chewing and saying, "It's either to do with the humans or some relics. The current strife between righteousness and evil is in full swing, so it must that some inheritance has been discovered."

Zhou Yi asked in confusion, "Are inheritances that often discovered?"

"What's the use even if they are discovered often, nine out of ten are of no use to us."

Yu Ya urged the Clam Lady to pour the wine, saying, "I've studied closely; these relics are not the legendary paradises but are ultimately hidden by Formations. Over time, the Formation and Prohibition weaken, naturally exposing their location."

"My friend Golden, think about it—if even the Formation and Prohibition are worn out, the Spiritual Objects and Spiritual Medicine inside would have long turned to waste!"

"I see."

Zhou Yi looked at Yu Ya in surprise; this robust and simple-looking fellow, prone to sleepiness and laziness, was actually quite meticulous.

"Haha! Yu Ya, you've spoken wrongly this time."

Ao Cang walked into the hall from outside, followed by three of his princes, smiling as he said, "The incident this time is not about relics, but an actual inheritance, originating from an Ancient Demon Saint..."

The words "Demon Saint" instantly silenced the hall.

Ao Cang sat on the dragon throne and continued.

"To the northeast of White Tiger Ridge lies Thunderstrike Peak. Not long ago, when the mountain cracked open, the legendary Four Spirits Sanctuary appeared from within. After a discussion, the four ancient ancestors will not interfere with this inheritance; it is for us to explore for ourselves!"
