Sovereign to Immortality

Yan Qingxi saw that Yang Junshan had already been standing in front of one of the barriers for a long time without even glancing at the other barriers. She couldn't help but feel anxious.    

"It's very strange!" Yang Junshan shook his head and nodded his head. Seeing Yan Qingxi's confused look, he explained, "This barrier's light screen could not be opened with our powers."    

Yan Qingxi did not wait for Yang Junshan to finish his words before patting her hands in annoyance, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have used that Inhibition Talisman on you when breaking the third layer of the barrier!"    

Yang Junshan didn't know whether to laugh or cry and said, "First listen to what I have to say. This layer of light was originally unable to be activated, but for some reason, it seems like this layer of light is weakened from the inside. That means this layer of light is not intact.    

Hearing that, Yan Qingxi jumped up and said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's make our move now!"    

Yang Junshan knew this was going to happen, so he hurriedly said, "Don't worry, do you remember the last time we worked together in the Sunset Mountains' cave, it was the same as last time. I will use the Splitting Mountain Spirit Art together with your Great White Goldlight Slash, I think I have a sixty percent chance of forcefully breaking this barrier of light."    

The last time at the Sunset Mountains cave, Yang Junshan was only a baleful qi cultivator and Yan Qingxi was only at the second stage of the Martial Disciple realm. This time, both of their powers had increased greatly and when they combined their powers, the Splitting Mountain Spirit Art and the Grand Aura Slash complemented each other well.    

Meanwhile, the top-grade magic tool, the Grand White Gold Saber, was also of excellent quality. At the same time, the material of the two divine abilities and spirit arts weren't damaged in the slightest.    

"Chi la!" The sound of silk breaking rang out. A two foot long hole appeared on the light screen. However, after the light from the saber disappeared, the hole gradually closed up.    

The two of them did not feel dejected. Instead, their confidence was boosted.    

"Again! Again! " Yan Qingxi shouted out loudly, but Yang Junshan had already prepared himself beforehand to make his second move.    

The power of the Broken Mountain Spirit Art and the Taibai Jinxing Slash combined perfectly, once again creating a three foot long hole on the fourth layer of the barrier, while simultaneously delaying the recovery speed of the first crack.    

Yan Qingxi's expression became increasingly excited. She didn't know why, but Yang Junshan's expression was not the least bit excited by the slowly tearing light screen.    

A third ray of light flew out from the Grand White Gold Saber. Yan Qingxi put away the saber and dashed towards the light barrier. At the same time, she shouted, "Hurry! The light barrier is about to close!"    

Unexpectedly, the third sacred art managed to tear the light barrier even more apart. However, just as Yan Qingxi was about to reach the crack, she felt a sacred art that she was extremely familiar with suddenly burst out from the crack and charged towards her.    

"Splitting Mountain Spirit Art!" Yan Qingxi cried out involuntarily. Her tone was filled with disbelief.    

When the young lady was caught off guard and was about to receive a heavy blow from the Splitting Mountain Art, a large golden seal descended from the sky and landed in front of Yan Qingxi. The divine ability's power completely slammed into the Mountain Lord's Seal.    

The huge Mountain Lord's Seal was supported by Yang Junshan's spiritual power. Although it wasn't damaged, it was pushed back three feet. Yang Junshan groaned and also took three steps back.    

Yan Qingxi was still in a panicked state as she retreated to Yang Junshan's side, "What's going on? Did the restriction screen trigger a backlash? How did you manage to reflect back your Breaking Mountain Technique?"    

The Mountain Lord's Seal shrunk back into Yang Junshan's hands and he looked at the barrier once again. There was a crack about five feet wide that appeared on the screen. The screen had obviously been forced open, but a shadow had appeared behind the screen.    

"Who are you?"    

She felt that the person in front of them must have been searching for the cultivator at the ruins of the Heaven-Shaking Mountain. Since this person appeared behind the fourth layer of barrier, it meant that the treasure behind the barrier was most likely already in the hands of the person in front of her.    

"He's from the Heaven Shaking Sect!"    

Yang Junshan said in a low voice as he felt the aura of this man who was not any weaker than himself.    

"How is this possible? How can he survive the collapse of the Heaven-Shaking Peak and the layers of interlocking formation?"    

In fact, I'm about to die. "That person suddenly opened his mouth and let out a" hehe "laugh. His slightly hoarse voice sounded like a steel file that was about to break one's heart," Even if you were two days late, I'm afraid you would only see a corpse.    

"Dong Liang?" Yan Qingxi was startled. "Dong Liang, the true disciple of Heaven Shaking Sect?"    

Dong Liang suddenly turned his head and pointed out with his finger. This was yet another sacred art that Yang Junshan was so familiar with, the Shattered Rock Art!    

Naturally, this one spell wasn't able to harm Yan Qingxi. She simply raised a slender finger and slashed downwards. A golden ray of light appeared, and the two spells met in the middle. With a light sound, they both dissipated.    

"So it's a cultivator from the Tan Xi Sect!" Dong Liang harrumphed coldly. He had only acted to test Yan Qingxi and prepare for the upcoming battle.    

"The Heaven Shaking Sect has been destroyed, and I am just a pitiful bug who managed to survive after being abandoned and died with them. From now on, I will naturally be irreconcilable with the Heaven Shaking Sect. How about this?"    

Dong Liang's unexpected words left Yan Qingxi at a loss for words. After a moment of hesitation, she said, "Since Fellow Dong …"    

Yang Junshan sighed helplessly. This future female disciple of the Tan Xi Sect had developed his strong personality, but he was still lacking in understanding the evilness of the human heart.    

Yang Junshan clasped his hands behind him. Just as Yan Qingxi was about to say something, Dong Liang suddenly took a step forward, causing the ground to shake violently. The barrier of light around them suddenly flickered, then started to shake like waves.    

Yan Qingxi immediately felt dizzy and her legs softened. She was about to fall backwards, but someone was already standing behind her, giving her an arm that she could support.    

Yang Junshan hugged Yan Qingxi with one hand at his waist, and waved towards Dong Liang with the other hand holding the mirror.    

Dong Liang didn't expect Yang Junshan to have already prepared for his sneak attack, and he also didn't expect that under his Earth Spirit Splitting Technique, he would be able to remain unaffected. Seeing the golden light in Yang Junshan's hand, Dong Liang instinctively felt that something was wrong and took a step to the side, dodging the Soul Divergence Light from the mirror.    

It was because Yang Junshan had already sensed Dong Liang's attack that Li Jing's counterattack had interrupted Dong Liang's follow-up attack, giving Yang Junshan a moment to catch his breath after saving Yan Qingxi.    

Instead, she held Yang Junshan even more tightly, as if this was the only way to alleviate the panic she felt after being ambushed. Afterwards, she felt a surge of pure spiritual energy enter her body, helping her to calm the turbulent spiritual energy in her body.    

The instant Dong Liang dodged Li Jing's counterattack, he made a move towards Yang Junshan, a high-rank magical equipment flying out of the ring and falling towards Yang Junshan's head.    

The fluctuations of spiritual energy brought about by magic tools could greatly increase the power of spiritual arts, and a special magic tool like the Bound of the Mountains could also allow the power of the Spirit Art of Broken Mountain to evolve into an extremely special form.    

Yang Junshan looked solemn. While he was considering which method to use against the enemy, he heard someone exhale beside his ear, "Put me down, let's go together!"    

With the help of Yang Junshan, Yan Qingxi had already calmed down the boiling spiritual energy in her body. After waking up, she found herself being held by one of Yang Junshan's arms, with her head on Yang Junshan's shoulder.    

On the other hand, Yang Junshan was overjoyed. Even though he had let go of Yan Qingxi's hand, the spiritual energy in his body was still continuously flowing into her body, while Yan Qingxi took the opportunity to draw out her top-grade magic tool, the Grand White Gold Saber. The Splitting Mountain Spirit Art and the Grand White Gold Chop were merged, and a bright and resplendent ray of light quickly converged and soared through the sky.    

There was only a "clang" sound in the air, and the mountain range let out a wail, wobbling as it was sent flying. The magic tool's light was obscure, and it was obvious that it had been severely injured.    

Dong Liang cried out in pain from afar, while Yang Junshan took the opportunity to point a finger at the top of his head. The Mountain Lord's Seal followed the retreating trajectory of the mountain and landed on Dong Liang's head.    

This time, Dong Liang was unable to dodge, even though his life tool was severely injured, he did not panic. Both of his hands formed an ancient incantation gesture, causing the mountain to spin rapidly above his head.    

"Soulguard technique!"    

Yang Junshan cried out in alarm. Even though he didn't have the inheritance of the sect guarding spirit art, it didn't stop him from recognizing it.    

Earth Splitting Spirit Art, Splitting Mountain Spirit Art, and Mountain Guarding Spirit Art; these were the three types of spirit arts and abilities that had been extended from the Earth-Shaking Mountain Art. In other words, if someone could learn these three spirit arts, even if they hadn't obtained the inheritance of the Earth-Shaking Mountain Art, they would still have a high chance of being able to reverse the situation.    

From the time Dong Liang appeared until now, he had displayed all three types of spiritual arts. This meant that he had a high chance of obtaining the complete Earth-Shaking Mountain Skill's inheritance.

It was a normal recovery tomorrow!
