Chapter 142 My Immortal Life is Missing (6)
Before Ye Ling could finish speaking, she suddenly disappeared without warning or a trace.
Gu Shijiu was stunned. She stared blankly at her hands: Where is he...?
The sect leader reacted quickly and immediately set up a protective barrier.
Now it's quite obvious that Ye Ling must have hidden inside the ruins.
Although no one could see the ruins, the sect leader's barrier was damaged, with bulges and missing pieces here and there.
The sect leader reinforced the barrier; if Ye Ling were to hide and run around the ruins, she would be truly difficult to find.
Ye Ling was extremely anxious inside. She spat out a mouthful of blood and sprayed it into the center of the ruins.
The sect leader could feel the power of the ruins suddenly intensify, and the barrier became as thin as a sheet of paper under its impact.
Fortunately, there were many people present, so everyone started to reinforce the barrier, but the ruins continued to be destroyed.
They're stuck in this stalemate, neither side able to gain the upper hand.
Ye Ling was so angry she almost exploded. She pulled out a bunch of magical artifacts, trying to break the barrier.
But Gu Shijiu deflected all the attacks.
"Sister, why do you have to pick on me?" Ye Ling began her emotional offensive.
Gu Shijiu felt somewhat helpless, wondering why people would try to claim kinship with her wherever she went: "I don't have a younger sister."
Shi Qi deliberately provoked Ye Ling: "Even if there are divine relics, you still can't get out."
Ye Ling was so angry that she spat out another mouthful of blood.
The two sides remained deadlocked for several days until the ruins showed no further movement.
Ye Ling had figured it out; she would cultivate inside.
The ruins are rich in spiritual energy, and the flow of time is different from that outside; one day there is equivalent to a month outside.
Once she reaches the pinnacle of her cultivation, how could the sect leader's barrier, created by a mere Nascent Soul cultivator, possibly contain her?
She's going to kill them all.
Those outside had clearly discovered her intentions, but they were powerless to stop her.
Only Ye Ling can control this ruin; no one else can enter. They can only try to find a way in from the outside.
A cultivator with a fire elemental root placed his hand on the barrier and released a strange fire, causing the temperature outside the ruins to rise.
Shi Qi clapped her hands and laughed, "It's like boiling a little turtle."
Ye Ling quickly looked outside and saw that the air inside the barrier had turned red, but the ruins remained unchanged.
"Do you think the Shinto ruins are such simple things? Don't worry, they're fine even if they're soaked in lava or weak water, let alone high temperatures."
Gu Shijiu was curious about how high the temperature was inside the barrier, so she quietly put her mental energy into it.
As a result, the released spiritual energy instantly dissolved, which frightened her so much that she quickly took back the rest.
Despite the extremely high temperature, the Shinto ruins remained completely unharmed.
After boiling for several days without any reaction, another cultivator with an ice spirit root came over to join in the fun. He also brought out an extremely cold item—South Sea Ice Crystal.
The moment it was taken out, the room turned into an ice cellar, and that was before the ice crystals were activated.
The cultivator placed ice crystals into the barrier, and this time the effect seemed to be stronger than the fire attack.
Ye Ling's body was covered in frost, and white mist appeared in her breath when she exhaled.
Gu Shijiu dared not use her spiritual power to probe anymore.
Although the low temperature wouldn't kill Ye Ling, it could interrupt her cultivation.
How could there be such a vicious person? Ye Ling thought angrily, and then she spoke again.
"Let me out. I'll find a place to cultivate in the future, and we'll keep to ourselves."
Unfortunately, no one believed her.
Ye Ling added, "I can swear an oath to the Demon of the Heart."
That won't do either. Shi Qi retorted, "You cultivate the path of divinity. Who knows if the Heart Demon Oath will work on you?"
In the end, the sect leader found a solution from the vast and boundless ancient texts of the Xuanqing Sect.
It turns out that the so-called gods were not originally products of this world, and the cultivation world welcomed them when they first arrived.
After all, they are all cultivators, and with their strength, they can fight against demons together.
But problems gradually arose.
Because cultivating to godhood requires too many resources, this realm simply cannot support so many gods.
Thousands of years have passed, and the once thriving cultivation world has been almost completely depleted, with cultivators finding it impossible to advance in their cultivation.
Thus, a fierce conflict broke out between the two groups of people who cultivated immortality and those who cultivated divinity.
Perhaps due to home-field advantage, or perhaps because this world simply didn't want divine cultivators, a chessboard and a cultivation method called "Spirit Chess Technique" were eventually descended upon the world.
The one who obtained the chessboard was the first peak master of Yixian Peak.
She used the chessboard to open a dimensional portal and sent all the divine cultivators away.
I never expected that there would be relics left behind, and that they would even come looking for Ye Ling.
The sect leader approached Gu Shijiu again.
The chessboard at Yixian Peak was originally in Liu Changdong's hands, but after he was captured, it fell into Gu Shijiu's possession.
Gu Shijiu began her arduous academic journey once again.
They're either working or attending classes; this little world is too miserable.
Because other people cannot use the chessboard, there are very few disciples on Yixian Peak, precisely because almost no one is suitable for it.
The one in Ye Yao's sachet was a replica; it improved rapidly when she was around.
However, given Gu Shijiu's limited intelligence, she simply couldn't learn those complex divination techniques in a short period of time.
Before she could even begin her training, Ye Ling had already achieved mastery and escaped.
After carefully studying the spell used to send away the god and the situation in this world, Shi Qi offered a suggestion.
"Since we're sending people away, where are we sending them?"
If we send them to a place similar to ours, it would harm the indigenous people.
I think we should send Ye Ling to reincarnation instead.
Legend has it that the one who governs reincarnation in this realm is also a god, so dealing with Ye Ling shouldn't be a problem.
Finally, after careful consideration, the powerful figures in the entire cultivation world tailored a plan specifically for Gu Shijiu.
After fasting for seven days, bathing and changing clothes, Gu Shijiu sat upright in front of the chessboard, reciting while beating a drum.
"The sky is clear and the earth is at peace; the River Chart embodies its spirit; a stick of incense is burned, and the ten directions are purified; three drumbeats are sounded, and all the gods listen..."
Next, Gu Shijiu did not begin the divination.
With her current abilities, trying to communicate with heaven and earth is pure fantasy.
Someone nearby started drawing talismans while chanting the "Rebirth Sutra".
Gu Shijiu continued reciting: "Heaven and earth are in harmony, the sun and moon shine in harmony; the four seasons are in harmony, the spirits and gods are in harmony with good and bad fortune; Heaven is impartial, and only virtue is its guide..."
Hundreds of high-level cultivators sat outside the courtyard, all reciting the "Rebirth Sutra".
Slowly, a black hole appeared in the courtyard, seemingly drawn in by an unknown gravitational force, pulling the barrier where Ye Ling was located.
Before Ye Ling could react, she felt that everything around her was pitch black, and the ruins had lost all connection with her.
A giant hand threw the ruins back into the cultivation world. Ye Ling and the barrier were casually crushed into dust by that hand and disappeared into the darkness.
The sect leader looked at the black hole, which was exactly the same place that the divine cultivators had gone in the records, and felt relieved.
It seems to have been a success, and there was even an unexpected bonus.
The high-level cultivators clearly felt that the spiritual energy within the realm was increasing, and the shackles that had long bound the Nascent Soul stage seemed to be loosening.
The ruins lost consciousness after being shattered and were scattered throughout the cultivation world.
The vast resources and abundant spiritual energy within also filled the cultivation world.
