Painting of the Nine Immortals - Chapter 304

Chapter 304
The Manor of Light was completely filled with dead bodies, and their blood had turned into a river . Cold corpses lied there one after another, each one of them were wide eyed and appeared to be filled with helplessness and sorrow .



Within one glance, there were at least hundreds of corpses, and the blood kept on flowing . Even the air was heavy with the smell of blood .

This scenery was just like the painting of hell, far too bloody and far too cruel . Ling Xian and them could only feel waves of coldness .

Ling Xian appeared to be in a decent state as his mentality was collected and tough . Thus, he merely frowned .

The other three were having a much rougher time, especially Yan Ning Zhi . She was a woman after all . Though she had always lived in the cruel Taoism community and has killed before .

This scenery before her was far too violent . Making her extremely uncomfortable .

"This… this many corpses… it's scaring me . "

Fang Yun was startled . Staring at the pile of dead bodies, apparent fear flashed across his face .

Lu Chao Xian was the same . He wryly smiled . "These many dead bodies… I wonder what kind of war unfolded here . "

"This is merely the entrance to the manor, which means before they even saw the treasures, they engaged in battles . " Ling Xian stayed silent for a while and sighed . "This is human nature . Some people wanted to get rid of the opponents while it was still early, causing a murky war . "

"That sounds about right . This is merely the entrance . I wonder just how violent it will get as we walk on," Lu Chao Xian exclaimed .

"Relax, they are merely dead bodies . " Ling Xian's face was calm . He walked until he was beside Yan Ning Zhi and patted her back . "Are you okay? Do you need to stay behind and wait for us here?"

"It's… it's okay . "

Yan Ning Zhi's brows tightly knitted together as she suppressed the discomfort she felt . She said sternly, "I will enter with you all . "

"You sure you can handle this?" Ling Xian raised an eyebrow to show his surprise .

Yan Ning Zhi nodded heavily . "I definitely can . "

"Okay, then let us go . " Ling Xian gently smiled and led the way .

Yan Ning Zhi followed behind closely . Though her face was still pale, her steps were determined .

Seeing this, Lu Chao Xian and Fang Yun exchanged bitter glances and followed closely behind .

Just like that, the party of four walked on again towards the deep ends of the manor .



On their way, there would be the occasional cold corpse . The entire manor was laced with a dense bloody smell .

After a short while, Ling Xian and them came before a stone door . Two words were carved on the door .

Cauldron Room .

Looking at the two meaningful words, Ling Xian and the others' eyes brightened . Its name alone meant this place was full of treasures .

"Let's go and see just what medicinal Dans are hidden inside the cauldron room of the Manor of Light . " Ling Xian grinned and walked in after pushing open the door .

However, other than the gush of bloody smell and broken limbs everywhere, there was nothing else .

Well, that was an inaccurate description . There were also giant rock shelves that used to display strange and mysterious medicinal Dans .

Sadly, there was no medicinal Dans on top of them right now .

"It seems like we came too late . " Ling Xian bitterly laughed . However, his handsome face was not at all disappointed .

If one receives it, one is lucky . If one doesn't, then it is fate .

This philosophy was one he saw through clearly . After all, he was a genius alchemist himself . The last thing he needed were medicinal Dans .

Lu Chao Xian, however, was very salty . "Someone had raided this place before us . "

"Dammit, such a big cauldron room, yet nothing is left . These raiders were far too intense," Fang Yun swore and came before the stone shelves, unwilling to give up .

However, the result was that the more he searched, the more disappointed he was .

From the first stone shelf until the last, he didn't even find a single medicinal Dan . However, he did manage to find some dust .

This made Fang Yun speechless, and Ling Xian couldn't help it but to smile .

"F*ck! These people are too much! They don't leave anything for those who come after them . "

Fang Yun cried tearlessly . Looking at the dust on his hand, his face was full of fury .

"It's okay . We found some medicinal powder, though useless, it's a consolation gift . " Ling Xian's lips curled up .



"Haha, yeah . This dust is special . Don't worry, we won't fight over them with you . " Lu Chao Xian laughed . His seemingly comforting statement was full of sarcasm .

"Hmmph . "

Fang Yun hissed and muttered, "These *ssholes . Such scums . Didn't leave any for me . "

"That's enough, stop muttering . If it were you, you would raid it empty too and not leave any for those after you . " Ling Xian waved his hand, telling Fang Yun to stop swearing .

"Hmmph . "

Fang Yun made a face, knowing Ling Xian was right . He finally shut his mouth and no longer blamed anyone .

"Let us go . The Manor of Light is so huge . There is no way there is only one cauldron room . Let us continue our trip . " Ling Xian smiled and walked out the room .

Just like that, the four of them turned left and right . After passing through a few curvy roads, they came upon another stone room .

Technique Room .

These two golden words were surrounded by spiritual energy and lit up this entire passageway .

It was a stone room full of technique related treasures .

When he saw those words, Fang Yun's eyes brightened . He rushed over to push open the door .

However, the moment his hand touched the stone door, he felt giant resistance and instantly flew backward .

Luckily, Ling Xian's eyes and hands were fast . In a flash, he came behind Fang Yun and stopped his falling body .

"My god! The Cauldron Room was empty, the Technique Room I cannot enter . My god, are you playing with me?" Fang Yun was highly depressed, and his face was full of disappointment .

After checking just now, the fact that he had no power to enter the room was clear .

But suddenly, he remembered something, and began to stare at Ling Xian with anticipation .

Lu Chao Xian and Yan Ning Zhi did the same . They were fully aware that if anyone here can push open the stone door, it would be Ling Xian .

Don't forget, he had broken into the undefeatable realm of the foundational level – unmatchable in the entire Palace of Fortune .

Feeling everyone's heated gaze, Ling Xian understood and said, "Okay . Let me try . "

Then, he walked backward . Manipulating all his Qi to one place and punched!

HOOOOOOOM!

The fist sliced through the air and stunned the sky . The entire manor vibrated in response .

Crack!

An infinite amount of golden light filled the room . As if feeling the powerfulness of the intruder, the stone door exploded with an even stronger wave of strength that rolled towards Ling Xian .

HOOOOM, HOOOOM, HOOOM!

One side of it was the strength of the undefeatable realm, the other was mysterious power from the Manor of Light . The two parties were all extremely terrifying and shocked the heavens!

"This power… is slowly rising . "

Ling Xian frowned . He did not expect this stone room to be so hard to deal with and to be equal in strength to him .

Then, just as he froze in place . The stone door exploded with an even stronger wave of strength that rose to the same level as the completion level!

Seeing this, Ling Xian's right arm made a move . Horrifying Qi rolled out and greeted the stone door . Then, Ling Xian stopped his attack and no longer made another move .

He was very aware that continuing these attacks were useless . The door has increased its Qi to the completion level . If he continues, it may explode with strength higher than the completion level .

When that happens, he will have no way to defend . Thus, he chose to stop .

"You cannot deal with this stone room either?" Yan Ning Zhi asked .

"This stone room is strange . Its strength increases with time . That last attack made me feel its completion leveled strength . I think it doesn't want anyone inside . " Ling Xian gently grinned . He didn't feel discouraged or embarrassed .

This was the Manor of light! It has one-tenth of the strength of the Palace of Fortune!

Just how strong is the Palace of Fortune, nobody knows . But according to ancient books, the alliance of seven powerhouses attempted to completely overtake this palace . But in the end, the seven of them failed and ended in death .

From this, one can conclude just how overpowering one-tenth of the palace was!

On top of that, that moment just now, the stone door exploded with completion leveled strength . Ling Xian was certain that if he continued his attacks, it would reveal the power of the original level!

Therefore, Ling Xian's capability was naturally no match for it . To be stepping away unharmed has already proven his abilities!

"Let's go and not even think about this stone room anymore . Unless the Manor of Light opens it willingly, even those from the original level cannot fight their way in . " Ling Xian softly smiled and walked on .

The other three marched on as well . They knew that the reason why this stone was not tainted by blood was because nobody could enter .

Therefore, the three of them were not at all disappointed .

Very quickly, Ling Xian and them came to another stone room . Before they even entered, they heard the clash of swords and the shrieks of pain .

It was not hard to imagine what kind of battle was happening inside .

When they entered the room, the saw a ruthless scene .

The stone room was huge, however, at this moment, it was covered with hundreds of dead bodies . The smell of blood floated in the air .

Waves of dominating energy were exploding in the air and challenging each other . The entire atmosphere was competitive .

The swords were reflecting light, a fire raged on and on . Every warrior on the battlefield was red in the eye . Not caring about anything anymore, they kept on using their techniques and killing with their lives .

"F*ck!"

Fang Yun swore, stunned by what was happening before him .

Lu Chao Xian and Yan Ning Zhi were the same . Looking at this hellish battlefield, they felt waves of coldness .

However, Ling Xian was not petrified . His gaze was also not placed on the cultivators engaged in war . His eyes were fixated on the golden rock hanging in midair .

Immediately, heat crawled up his handsome face . His starry eyes were full of desire .

If Ling Xian was not wrong, this should be the Array Lifting Stone only seen in legends!

"I did not expect a legendary item to be here!"

Ling Xian's eyes were flooding with desire, even his breathing quickened .

This was the first time he has lusted after an object like this!
