Chapter 1088 Battle with Teng Snake

And upon that immortal isle, a curtain of light enveloped it firmly like an upturned glass bowl.

"This is the site of the Yin Yang Immortal Sect."

Immortal Qingshu spoke up, his voice trembling with intense excitement, "Be cautious. Let us enter through the weakest point of the formation."

With that, he prepared to lead the group inside.

"Hold it."

But just at that moment, Eldrin interrupted him.

Eldrin’s expression tightened slightly, his gaze tinged with hesitation as he spoke, “Though the formation here is incomplete, it still functions. And the immortal vein is merely of high-grade quality. Can this truly be the ruins of the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect?”

Immortal Qingshu, however, let out a hearty laugh and shook his head. "The main stronghold of the Yin-Yang Immortal Sect was seized by a powerful immortal faction long ago."

"This is an immortal abode, a place where the Patriarch of Yin and Yang concealed his treasures and legacy, as well as a contingency he prepared for his reincarnated return."

Seeing this, Eldrin did not say anything more, though a faint sense of peril lingered in his heart.

"If you don't even have the nerve for this, why bother exploring ancient ruins at all?"

"If you don't dare enter, then turn back. Your departure means 1 less person to share the treasures with."

Suddenly, the Daoist of the Remnant Heaven let out a cold laugh and, taking the lead, flew straight into the Yin-Yang Abode.

Eldrin remained unmoved. He swept his gaze around and noticed that Old Monk Ru wore a grave expression, while Flower Fairy maintained her ever-cheerful smile. Only Zhen Yu Zi’s countenance remained unwaveringly calm.

The Prison-Suppressing Sage stood tall and slender, his hair a stark white, his gaze cold and profound. With a tranquil glance at Eldrin (Person Name), he ultimately took the second step forward.

Seeing Eldrin step forward, Immortal Qingshu smiled faintly. "Let us proceed together, fellow cultivators. That ancient Tengshe's ferocious power rivals the Ninth Heaven Ascension realm. Only through the combined strength of all 6 of us can we be certain of victory."

Upon hearing this, Eldrin (Person Name) paused in contemplation before stepping forward once more.

The party of 6 stepped into the auxiliary manor, advancing deeper into the ancient ruins. Only then did they realize the staggering vastness of this estate.

The estate before them was boundless. They flew for a long while before reaching its outer perimeter, and all of them wore expressions of astonishment.

Within the ancient ruins, 2 primordial trees stood rooted in the earth, emanating streams of yin and yang energies.

Profound Yin Cassia, Solar Fire Tangerine!

Gazing at the 2 immortal roots, the Daoist Priest of the Remnant Heaven wore a face of burning fervor, unable to resist revealing their origins.

Upon hearing this, Eldrin felt a stir in his heart as he recalled the origins of these 2 immortal roots.

Within the immortal realms, there are quite a few Heavenly Spiritual Roots (Spiritual Root), each possessing different attributes. The 2 before us contain the dual properties of Yin and Yang, respectively.

The Profound Yin Cassia was originally a manifestation of the acquired Profound Yin laws. The Profound Yin Immortal Cassia Berries it bore were exceptionally potent, capable of enhancing an immortal's soul power.

Moreover, this object contains the profound mysteries of the Mysterious Yin Law. Consuming it can assist immortals in comprehending the Pure Yin Law.

The Solar Fire Tangerine contains pure yang energy. After consumption, it can assist immortals in cultivating the Solar Law and is also an excellent treasure for tempering the physical body.

In ages past, the Eldrin of Yin and Yang cultivated the dual laws of light and shadow. Though they never forged an immortal body or achieved the Dao Fruit, they advanced their comprehension of the fundamental principles to a realm that transcended the very pinnacle of celestial ascension.

This was not solely due to Yin-Yang Ancestor's extraordinary talent, but also had much to do with these 2 Immortal Roots.

"2 superior-grade immortal roots, to think it would actually be them."

Eldrin murmured, a few covetous faces flashing through his mind.

His gaze swept over the 4 individuals, and only then did he notice the Greed flashing in Crippled Heaven Daoist's eyes. Meanwhile, Flower Fairy's autumn-wave-like gaze shimmered with what seemed like a trace of covetous desire.

Immortal Qingshu remained expressionless, but his tone grew profoundly solemn. "Foreseeing the cataclysmic dangers of the great tribulation, the ancient Yin-Yang Patriarch transplanted these 2 immortal roots along with countless treasures to this sanctuary long ago."

"These 2 immortal roots are not the only treasures within these ruins. There should also be several supreme-grade immortal artifacts. It would be wiser for us to fully secure the ruins before discussing their distribution."

Seeing this, the group finally abandoned their greedy thoughts.

The Daoist Priest of the Remnant Heavens suppressed his thoughts and swept his gaze around before saying, "Your reasoning is sound, Elder Brother. Let us first slay that Tengliss(Spirit Beast)."

"Speaking of, where is that Teng Snake hiding?"

"Here they come."

At that very moment, Zhen Yu Zi (Person Name), who had remained silent all along, suddenly spoke.

Everyone quickly looked up toward the depths of the void, only to discover the primordial Tengshe that had been blotting out the sky now soaring toward them.

Eldrin withdrew his gaze and instinctively glanced at Zhen Yu Zi, a thought flashing through his mind: "Though Zhen Yu Zi walks the path of physical sanctification, he was the first to detect the Sky-Serpent."

"No wonder he is the only 1 among them who gives me a sense of danger."

"Roar——"

As his thoughts raced, the serpent had already spotted them and charged over with a furious roar.

Immortal Qing Shu’s expression abruptly shifted, and he spoke with utmost gravity, “Everyone, act swiftly.”

"Clang—"

As the words of Immortal Qingshu fell, he instantly summoned an azure immortal sword, slashing toward the Teng Snake.

Yet the Teng Snake showed no fear whatsoever. With a sudden whip of its tail, forged as if from black gold, it actually sent the Zhanqing Immortal Sword flying backward.

"What a formidable physical body!"

Everyone’s pupils contracted slightly. The winged serpent’s body seemed forged of immortal gold, capable of withstanding the assault of a top-grade immortal sword.

Immortal Qingshu’s face paled slightly as he urged his immortal sword to strike once more, his tone grave as he declared, “This Tengliss has already reached the peak of the Ninth Heavenly Ascension. Only through a well-coordinated strategy can we slay it.”

"Then let us strike together."

Witnessing this, the crowd immediately summoned their magical treasures and launched a barrage of attacks.

Eldrin felt an inexplicable unease in his heart. Only after unleashing the Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss in continuous assaults did he finally survey his surroundings.

He noticed that among the group, aside from Immortal Qingshu who had summoned a single lifebound immortal sword, the others had each employed their own methods.

The Daoist Cantiān summoned his walking staff. Though unassuming in appearance, it was actually forged from the fusion of some celestial vine and immortal metal.

It appeared even more massive and weighty than a major world, to the extent that even the ancient sky-serpent, despite its formidable physical strength, dared not confront it head-on.

Flower Fairy then summoned a cloud of pink miasma. This treasure, named 'Ninefold Spring Radiance', not only shielded her form but could also invade an opponent's divine soul. It was a superior immortal treasure capable of both offense and defense.

The old monk then summoned a Vajra Buddha Bowl, also an immensely powerful top-grade immortal treasure.

Zhenyuzi summoned 2 chains, forged from Netherworld Black Gold, their grade reaching the pinnacle of Immortal-rank superior.

6 late-stage Ascension cultivators joined forces, summoning 6 immortal treasures to face the enemy, finally suppressing the arrogance of that Tenuis Serpent.

Yet even after joining forces and exchanging hundreds of moves with the Teng Snake, they discovered to their dismay that they could not inflict even a single wound upon the serpent.

Seeing the situation take a turn for the worse, Flower Fairy couldn’t help but pale slightly and said, “These winged serpent’s scales are forged as if from immortal gold. Even with our methods, I fear it will be difficult to cut him down.”

Seeing this, Immortal Qingshu spoke up at once, “If any of you possess special techniques, do not hold back. Otherwise, prolonging this battle will only deplete our immortal essence.”

"Hmph!"

The Daoist Priest of the Remnant Heaven cast a cold gaze, then sneered, "If you can restrain this winged serpent for a moment, my Remnant Heaven Great Art may be able to harm it."
