Asura Mad Emperor

As the Dao patterns were infused into the cave, what had been a gloomy abyss now shone with a cyan Dao light.

It was as if an ancient lamp, silent for ages, was ignited at this moment—simple and elegant.

As Qinchuan's pen tip danced, the caves on the cliff were illuminated from near to far at a visible speed to the naked eye.

Until the last of the Dao lamps disappeared into the clouds, the Spring and Autumn Pen in Qinchuan's hand still did not stop, continuously spilling forth rolling Dao.

If someone had been able to take in the entire cliff at this moment, they would have noticed that as the rows of caves were lit one by one, the giant face carved on the cliff gradually became luminous as if it was about to come alive.

Time passed, and all the caves on the cliff had been illuminated, while the giant face had also completely come to life, its two eyes shining with the brilliance of the sun, moon, and stars, casting their light from above the clouds.

The movements of the giant face caused the entire cliff to react; a thundering rumble erupted from above.

Then, the cliff was visibly trembling, shaking uncertainly as if the heavens were collapsing.

In an instant, the earth shook and mountains crumbled.

Furthermore, in the void, a sharp sound of tearing air resounded, with something above whistling towards the ground at tremendous speed.

Qinchuan's gaze sharpened as he noticed a tiny black dot within the clouds.

One…

Two…

More and more black dots appeared in the sky, and before long, those shadows grew larger and larger, eventually turning into boulders as large as mountain peaks.

A rain of massive boulders poured down, seemingly intent on burying a man and a bird in this place.

"What's going on, why are rocks falling from the sky!"

The Red Luan, which had been resting on Qinchuan's shoulder after feeding, awakened by the mighty uproar, flew into the sky and with a flap of its brilliant wings, sent a mountain-sized rock flying, shrieking as it asked.

After speaking, Red Luan realized not only the cliff was trembling, the ground was also shaking, and it cried out in a panic, "This is bad, the earth is shaking, the earth is shaking!"

Meanwhile, at the same time in the core area of Refining Spirit Valley, the elders who had entered through the red portal also felt the faint tremors beneath their feet.

"What's happening?"

"Is this… an earthquake?"

"Refining Spirit Valley is located atop Fusang Mountain, which harbors a Divine Dragon Vein beneath the ground. How could there be an earthquake?"

"No, this isn't an earthquake…" At this moment, finally, an elder noticed something amiss. His eyes blazed as he looked towards the distance, seemingly peering through the vast sky, and exclaimed in shock, "This is from the direction of the forbidden land… Could it be that the forbidden land has opened?"

Divine Severing Cliff is known in Refining Spirit Valley as a deadly forbidden land. Over tens of thousands of years, countless elders have attempted to climb to the top of the cliff to explore its landscape, but from the Supreme Saints to the Saints, none have ever returned.

Over time, this place became forbidden, and ordinary people were unwilling to approach it.

Now, with such a massive disturbance coming from the direction of Divine Severing Cliff, even the elders thousands of miles away could sense the anomalies beneath the earth, suggesting that something extraordinary had occurred.

Perhaps a treasure had emerged?

Suddenly, the elders leaped into action, heading towards Divine Severing Cliff, fearing that if they were a step too late, they would miss out on the treasure.

...

At this time, Qinchuan was unaware that the commotion he had caused by unlocking the Prohibition of this place had become, in the eyes of the elders, the sign of a treasure's emergence.

As boulders continued to fall from Divine Severing Cliff, he knew that his great task was accomplished. He put away the Spring and Autumn Pen and commanded Red Luan to return to its original form.

The Red Luan within harbored the Phoenix bloodline, with its true form comparable to a small mountain.

As the Red Luan reverted to its true form, its lustrous body, tinged with red blood-like streaks, soared into the sky, and in the blink of an eye, the flames of the phoenix densely enveloped the heavens. The vast flames surged upwards, and the sonorous cry of the phoenix burst forth.

Even though it wasn't the first time seeing the Red Luan's true form, one couldn't help but marvel; with just a trace of the Phoenix bloodline, the Red Luan was already so magnificent, one could only imagine the grandeur of the phoenixes from Ancient Times.

After the Red Luan had restored its true form, Qinchuan leaped onto the Red Luan's broad back and instructed it to fly upwards.

Following Qinchuan's command, the Red Luan rose spiraling into the sky, beginning its ascent.

The Red Luan's speed was incredibly fast, and Qinchuan immediately felt a whooshing sound by his ears, reminiscent of the majesty of a Kunpeng spreading its wings.

Before long, Qinchuan had already reached above the clouds; all that met his eyes, aside from the towering cliff that seemed to have no peak in front of him, was the vast expanse of white clouds.

After ascending for an unknown period, Qinchuan suddenly saw a giant cave appear atop the green cliff, the Abyss shimmered like a rainbow, and a dazzling light shone from within, as if auspiciousness was descending.

Should anyone have seen the full extent of this giant face, they would realize that the massive cave was merely a slight crevice displayed at the corner of the giant face's mouth.

Qinchuan directed the Red Luan toward the Abyssal cave entrance.

"We have finally arrived!" Qinchuan sighed softly, as if he had long anticipated the appearance of this cavity.

The Red Luan spread its wings, with its enormous body hovering at the entrance of the cave. Looking inside, the cave was filled with numerous materialized Dao Patterns; within the depths of the Abyss, faint golden light twinkled.

Above the entrance of the cave flowed iridescent lights, with the power of Prohibitions attached to the surface, manifesting a faint Barrier, preventing the entrance of outsiders.

Qinchuan placed a hand upon the Barrier, his body's True Qi pouring out furiously, converging upon the Barrier. Soon enough, the obstructing Barrier vanished like smoke and clouds.

Having opened the Barrier, Qinchuan stepped in confidently; the Red Luan, too, shrank its body and returned to perch upon Qinchuan's shoulder.

No sooner had he set foot inside than the scenery before his eyes underwent an earth-shattering transformation, as though he had entered another world altogether.

Suddenly caught in a dizzying whirl, a series of magical light screens appeared. At times he seemed to be in the endless stellar expanse, at other times as if atop the Taiyin Golden Star, in a disoriented state.

After regaining clarity, Qinchuan found himself within a corridor. The corridor's walls were smooth and soft, not resembling stone walls, and emitted faint specks of luminescence, as if entering a seductive haven.

"Eh, this place is anything but ordinary."@@novelbin@@

As soon as the Red Luan entered, she felt a refreshing sensation, a continuous flow of gentle Qi pervading her Divine Sense, nurturing her Soul.

Flapping her tiny wings, she flew to the wall of the corridor and examined the walls around closely. After a long while, she suddenly cried out in amazement, "Oh my, this is Luo Yu, a whole chunk of Luo Yu!"

Even having lived for a million years and having seen countless treasures, at this moment, the Red Luan could not help but curse in human language.

Because she discovered that the walls surrounding the corridor weren't ordinary jade, but all were made of Luo Yu.

Luo Yu, known for nurturing the Divine Sense, if an ordinary Cultivator owned a Luo Yu pendant and carried it with them all year round, their Divine Sense would definitely be three times stronger than average.

The path of Divine Sense, more difficult to cultivate than the Five Elements' Qi, with correspondingly fewer treasures to aid it. Whenever such items emerged, they could certainly stir up significant turmoil across the continent.

While Luo Yu is not as powerful as a Divine Sense Supreme Treasure, it is similarly rare. Even a ring made from a thumb-sized piece of Luo Yu would be a Supreme Treasure competed for by major Sects.

And if there was a Luo Yu pendant or ornament, Sect families would be willing to exchange a Supreme Dao Artifact for it.

Yet here, the entire corridor was made of this jade. If word got out, no matter the dangers of Divine Severing Cliff, Cultivators would continuously come here in search of treasure.

"Quiet."

Qinchuan gave her a glance and said, afterwards extending his hand to gently caress the long-silent jadestone, his thoughts drifting far away.

Seeing this, the Red Luan knew Qinchuan must have a deep connection with this place. She promptly closed her mouth and found a corner to herself, relishing the supreme benefits brought by the Luo Yu.
