"Good that you know!"
The Ghost King suddenly erupted with a powerful Aura, and the Lock Soul Chains wrapped around his body snapped one by one.
The Yin deep Qi surged, and more and more skull-ghost heads rushed out.
Crimson Crow gradually found it difficult to cope, so Li Feiyu shot out several Yi Wood Azure Lightnings to help it out, and Crimson Crow escaped the encirclement of skulls and came to Li Feiyu's side.
"Crimson Crow, can you still maintain the burst?"
Li Feiyu communicated with Crimson Crow through Divine Sense. Although Li Feiyu provided the cost for the burst, this burning technique could not be used indefinitely, as the consumption after the burst was all his own magical power and Primordial Spirit power.
"Ya ya~" (I can still continue.)
"Then later I will give you a drop of five-hundred-year longevity liquid. You will burn it all and then unleash the Sun True Fire. Currently, I estimate that only your Sun True Fire can harm him."
"Ya ya~" (Understood!)
Afterward, Li Feiyu contacted the Soul Devouring Yin Plate again, asking what was the maximum amount of longevity liquid it could burn.
The Soul Devouring Yin Plate replied that it was roughly ten thousand years, which could unleash power close to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
However, it would need a period of recuperation after the burst.
Li Feiyu nodded slightly, a look of determination flashing in his eyes.
At this moment, under the Ghost King's manipulation, all the skull-ghost heads converged, forming a giant ghost head. The eerie white bones seemed real, exuding a chilling coldness that sent shivers down one's spine.
Li Feiyu immediately provided longevity liquid to Crimson Crow and the Soul Devouring Yin Plate, and he himself burned five hundred years of Lifespan to obtain Divine Ability power comparable to the pseudo-Nascent Soul level.
Seeing Li Feiyu and his companions' Aura suddenly surge, the Ghost King showed surprise.
"Lifespan burning technique?!"
"You are truly willing to pay such a price!"
"Whether we are willing or not, that is none of your concern!"
"Crimson Crow!"
Li Feiyu shouted, and Crimson Crow transformed into its three-zhang Fire Crow true form. Its Aura continuously rose, and the faint golden flames appearing on its feathers gradually turned golden.
And when the golden flames appeared, the Ghost King detected a great threat from them.
"What kind of flame is this?!"
Crimson Crow wouldn't answer. It opened its mouth and spat out a golden flame. The flame was not large, but upon contact with the giant skull-ghost head...
The skull-ghost head immediately let out a tragic scream and was incinerated into nothingness in just a few breaths.
The surrounding space's temperature continuously rose. Crimson Crow spat out another golden flame, and the Ghost King condensed a large amount of Yin deep Qi to resist.
At this time, Li Feiyu's pseudo-Nascent Soul level Yi Wood Azure Lightning had already condensed, and a thick blue lightning bolt, the size of a man, struck directly at the Ghost King.
The Ghost King was focused on resisting Crimson Crow's golden flames, so he was hit squarely.
Lightning inherently had a great restraining power against him, and coupled with the pseudo-Nascent Soul level Divine Ability power, it was enough to harm him.
As the Ghost King was injured, the golden flames also broke through his resistance and ignited his body.
The Ghost King immediately let out a tragic howl, and his Aura rapidly weakened. It was clear that the golden flames caused him far more damage than Li Feiyu's Yi Wood Azure Lightning.
"Now, Soul Devouring Yin Plate!"
The shiny black Lock Soul Chains suddenly shot out, wrapping around the Ghost King's body, where wisps of golden flames still lingered.
Although he didn't know the specific consequences of being dragged into that plate, he knew with certainty that it wouldn't be anything good.
He struggled with all his might, but having been genuinely struck by the Yi Wood Azure Lightning and the Great Sun True Fire, the Ghost King was now much weaker. Moreover, the pulling force this time was extremely strong, such that even at his peak, he could only barely resist.
After a few breaths, he was finally dragged into the Yin Soul Space inside the Soul Devouring Yin Plate.
Crimson Crow reverted to its small red bird form, flying back to Li Feiyu's shoulder with great difficulty, its Aura extremely weak.
Li Feiyu himself was also in a similar state.
The Soul Devouring Yin Plate spun, and Li Feiyu understood its meaning, so he put it into his Storage Pouch.
Afterward, he took a few Medicinal Pills, sat cross-legged, and began to meditate and recuperate.
Three days later, Li Feiyu opened his eyes and took the Storage Pouch from the skeleton of Immortal Master Taiyin above the altar.
He wanted to open it but failed, as it had a special Restriction.
Only then did Li Feiyu understand why the Ghost King hadn't touched the Storage Pouch. It might contain something he wanted, but he couldn't break the Restriction, so he left it alone.
After a careful examination, Li Feiyu discovered that the Restriction on the Storage Pouch was of the same origin as the Taiyin Mysterious Water Formula.
The Taiyin Mysterious Water Formula should have been placed in the outer hall by Immortal Master Taiyin, and it was likely a branch of the Taiyin True Scripture, just like the Inferno Apex Meridian Art , where each Realm could be split into a separate Cultivation Technique.
He tried using Taiyin magical power and indeed opened the Storage Pouch.
There were not many Spirit Stones inside, nine in total, but one of them had a Spiritual Qi so rich that Li Feiyu had never seen it before, suspected to be a top-grade Spirit Stone, while the rest were high-grade Spirit Stones.
Li Feiyu was overjoyed.
"To be able to obtain top-grade Spirit Stones, it seems this Immortal Master Taiyin was very renowned in ancient times."
Besides the Spirit Stones, there was also a book, a small bell, a Formation Plate, and a jade box.
Li Feiyu didn't delve into them, glanced at the altar, and then left the place.
This time he didn't stop, moving straight ahead, returning directly from his original passage.
There was no one in the main hall. Li Feiyu guessed that they had either gone outside to search for Spirit Medicine and hunt Demon Beasts, or they had left this Forbidden Land.
There was no teleportation Formation in the main hall, but Li Feiyu had seen one outside, so he immediately released the Clear Wind Boat and flew towards it.
Considering that going out now might lead to being ambushed, Li Feiyu stayed at the teleportation Formation, meditating and recuperating.
Ten days later, Li Feiyu had fully recovered, and a month later, Crimson Crow also recovered.
With Crimson Crow present, Li Feiyu's confidence greatly increased. Even if he were besieged, given an opportunity, he could rely on Crimson Crow to escape.
Liyang Island.
Not many people came out of the Immortal Cave; compared to those who went in, more than half had died.
"Xing Jueyi, aren't you leaving yet? That guy surnamed Li is so arrogant, he's probably already dead in the underground world."
"Big Brother, if you want to go back, you can go back first."
Xing Shuitian's face darkened. This time entering the Ancient Forbidden Land, although he didn't obtain any Legacy treasures, there were seven or eight thousand-year Spiritual Plants alone, and countless five or six hundred-year-old ones.
He didn't dare to return alone. If he were targeted, losing wealth would be a minor matter; losing his life was also very possible.
If his Dharma Protector Elder hadn't died, he wouldn't have to be so constrained.
"Yao'er, what do you think?"
"No hurry, let's wait and see," Xing Yao'er's voice was gentle and pleasant.
Xing Shuitian snorted coldly, having no choice but to follow the majority.
Not long after, Li Feiyu came out and, seeing Xing Jueyi and the others, was stunned, "You didn't leave?"
Xing Jueyi smiled, "Brother Li, we were waiting for you. More people mean more support."
Li Feiyu understood Xing Jueyi's meaning. He was afraid that Li Feiyu alone would be targeted by a late stage Core Formation Old Freak. If he was with them, five or six Early Stage Core Formation cultivators, even a late stage Core Formation cultivator would have to weigh their options.
Scarlet Fire Old Freak glanced at Li Feiyu, his eyes flickering.
Wu Chou transmitted via Divine Sense: "Scarlet Fire Senior, what do we do now? Do we still make a move against that kid?"
"Since he chose to go with the Star Commerce Alliance people, then forget it. Although the Xing Family members have only recently reached Core Formation, each of them probably has a formidable trump card."
"Plus, the kid surnamed Li is also unfathomable. We'll let him go this time and look for another opportunity next time."
"Then we'll listen to Senior."
Less than half a month after Li Feiyu and the others left, the Ancient Forbidden Land on Liyang Island closed, and even the Formation Restrictions in the outer layer were reactivated.
Some excessively greedy individuals were trapped in the Ancient Forbidden Land, and it was estimated that they would have no chance to escape when their Lifespan limit arrived.
Upon returning to Heavenly Star City, Li Feiyu went with them to Heavenly Star City. Through Xing Jueyi, he purchased the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivation Technique for the Azure Wood Green Thunder Art, spending seven or eight thousand-year Spiritual Plants.
Afterward, he returned to his Immortal Cave on the Holy Mountain to sort his gains and enter seclusion for cultivation.
