Chapter 1126 - 502: The Path of Invincibility
Stepping into the depths of the light band, the temperature plummeted, and the air was filled with a metallic chill.The crystalline stairs underfoot began to twist and distort, transforming into a spiral shape that ascended upward. Each step caused ripples, as if treading on liquid starlight.
"It seems something is watching us."
Li Yunjing suddenly raised his hand, pointing his sword forward.
Before his voice fell, the ancient rune on the wall erupted with dazzling light, and eight crystalline warriors of the Witch Race broke through the wall.
They held bone blades, green flames flickered in their eye sockets, and the chains wrapped around them clattered.
The leading crystalline warrior let out a hoarse roar, its bone blade slicing through the void, tearing open a space fissure from which countless tiny silver parasites gushed out.
Li Yunjing’s pupils suddenly shrank; though these parasites were similar to the devouring silver worms, they were smaller and wrapped in black spell patterns.
"They’re witch parasites!"
Li Yunjing shouted, "Beware of their parasitism!"
This was no time to temper Yu Yunyi, Lv Ruoxi, or Fu Chao; these witch parasites were extremely dangerous. With a wave of his hand, dozens of Binghuo Divine Thunder exploded in the air.
"Boom!"
All the witch parasites were blasted into ashes.
Seeing their tactics fail, the eight crystalline warriors simultaneously raised their bone blades, chanting ancient spells, causing the entire space to collapse, and numerous spatial fissures swept towards them.
From the center of the island suddenly burst a green light, and a hundred-foot-long star-patterned serpent crawled out from the fissure.
This star-patterned serpent’s scales shimmered with a cold light, its serpentine eyes swirling with a soul-snaring deep blue.
"What is this!"
Lv Ruoxi exclaimed, "These Witch Race warriors are dead. How can they still perform summoning secret techniques?"
"Protect each other; I’ll break the enemy!"
Li Yunjing’s eyes sharpened, and the Celestial Thunder Emperor Seal was instantly conjured. Thunder power flowed through the seal’s body, "Boom!" The Celestial Thunder Emperor Seal shot forth like light from his forehead, colliding heavily with the serpent’s body!
Everywhere the Celestial Thunder Emperor Seal touched, space rippled, its terrifying thunder light nearly shattering everything.
Even those eight Witch Race warriors were affected, stumbling backward.
"Zzz..."
Li Yunjing seized the victory, the Yin Yang Five Elements Celestial Derivation Sword turned into a stream of light, severing the warriors’ necks successively.
Amidst the sound of crystalline shattering, the eight Witch Race warriors finally disintegrated completely.
With the battle over, a jade platform slowly rose in the center of the floating island.
Three treasures were placed on the platform: a scroll exuding a simple aura, a token engraved with star patterns, and a mysteriously floating jade bottle.
As everyone held their breath and stared at the treasures, the jade platform suddenly burst with brilliant light, and the illusion of a Witch Race elder appeared from it.
The elder was draped in a starry robe with an imposing presence, holding a staff, resembling a Witch Race priest.
"Descendants, these three treasures were left by our Witch Race ancestors. They carry a secret buried for thousands of years."
The elder’s image spoke, his voice resonating like a great bell throughout the floating island.
Li Yunjing and the others’ expressions turned solemn, listening intently.
"This ’Starfall Secret Scripture’ records ancient star cultivation methods. If a cultivator can understand its mysteries, they can draw the power of the stars into their body, possessing immense power."
The elder raised his hand towards the jade scroll, its brilliance intensified: "In the past, a mighty figure from our Witch Race wielded this scripture, dominated the Immortal Cultivation Realm, and with the power of the stars, annihilated many strong enemies, making a name for themselves."
"However, this scripture is difficult to cultivate, requiring numerous trials and tribulations. A single misstep could lead to being devoured by the power of the stars, resulting in complete annihilation."
Hearing the priest’s words, Li Yunjing and the others stirred slightly.
In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, many cultivators cultivate starlight, moonlight, and sunlight, but to reach the level mentioned by the elder, the technique must be incredibly formidable.
This made Li Yunjing and the others somewhat tempted.
"This ’Starfall Order’ is the key to unlocking a hidden inheritance place of our Witch Race."
Next, the elder’s gaze shifted to the starry token: "That inherited place contains countless treasures and peerless cultivation techniques, as well as powerful guardian forces."
"Those who hold the Starfall Order must pass the trials of the inherited place to gain opportunities."
"Once the Starfall Order appears, it will attract the coveting of various forces. The bearer must be cautious at all times."
This made Li Yunjing and the others look at each other; they hadn’t heard of what the Starfall Order was, nor did they know its hidden secrets.
As for the Witch Race’s inheritance?
Can it truly be so easily bestowed upon anyone?
A shadow of doubt loomed in Li Yunjing and the others’ hearts, and they didn’t seem to fully trust the image’s words.
One should know that in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, forces like the Immortal Dao, Buddhist Dao, Demon Dao, Confucian Dao... with widespread inheritance have left behind the legacy of many predecessors across myriad worlds.
But the Witch Race is an exception!
This was a tribe once suppressed by many forces combined!
The Witch Race only recognizes bloodlines and never considers other humans as kin.
Would this priest truly have such goodwill, willing to let outsiders undergo trials in hopes of receiving opportunity?
"This jade bottle is called ’Star Enrichment Bottle,’ containing a drop of Star Origin Liquid within."
But at this moment, there was no time for Li Yunjing and the others to think more, as they saw the elder’s hand slowly pointing at the mysterious jade bottle, his tone becoming solemn: "This liquid can assist cultivators in breaking through realms, reshaping meridians, and even reviving those near death."
"However, the power of star origin is extremely overbearing; caution is needed when using it. If a cultivator’s foundation is unstable, forcibly absorbing it may lead to exploding and death."
