Cultivation: I have an equipment slot

"Meteor Valley is just ahead."

"I sent someone ahead of time to follow Dongfang Yeyang."

"She's too arrogant and doesn't respect me."

"That's how my men found this Meteor Valley."

Outside a mountain range stretching for thousands of miles, the Fifth Prince spoke to Zhang Yan beside him.

After the last war between humans and transvestites.

Many secrets have disappeared into the long river of history.

Such as this Meteor Valley.

Only the Sword Control Sect, the leader of the five major immortal sects, left behind a few words.

Otherwise, such a secret realm would have been trampled over long ago.

Below is an extremely dense ancient forest.

Viewed from a high altitude.

You won't find anything unusual at all.

But Meteor Valley is located within this ancient forest.

"You continue to stay here."

The Fifth Prince gave orders to his subordinates and then led Zhang Yan and the others into Meteor Valley.

Compared to Zhang Yan, the Fifth Prince only had two experts at the early stage of the Dharma Aspect Realm by his side.

Moreover, they were all at the early stage of the Dharma Aspect Realm.

Therefore, even if he knew the location of Meteor Valley, he dared not venture in rashly.

"If it weren't for Fellow Daoist Zhang..."

"I could only watch helplessly as Dongfang Yeyang entered the Meteor Valley."

The Fifth Prince followed Zhang Yan closely, keeping a very humble posture.

Although he was a prince.

However, his status in the Feathered Dynasty was not high.

The purpose of his secret letter was to find a way to curry favor with Zhang Yan.

"I must first thank the Fifth Prince."

"I hope that in the future, Fifth Prince, you will help me and keep an eye on Dongfang Yeyang."

Zhang Yan glanced at the Fifth Prince and replied in a gentle voice.

Dongfang Yeyang is about to make a move against Middle-earth.

However, Zhang Yan currently lacks substantial evidence.

They couldn't touch Dongfang Yeyang either.

The only option is to rely on the power of the Fifth Prince, Dongfang Jing, to keep an eye on Dongfang Yeyang and take precautions.

Therefore, even if Zhang Yan did not want to get involved in the undercurrents within the dynasty, he had no choice but to show some sincerity.

Zhang Yan and Dongfang Jing had a very pleasant conversation.

Xiao Wanyi, on the other hand, kept staring at the dense forest below.

Dongfang Yeyang set off six days ago.

Now we must venture deep into Meteor Valley.

Her father is likely in grave danger.

The four Dharma Aspect Realm cultivators from the Huang family, along with the two Dharma Aspect Realm cultivators brought by Dongfang Jing, spread their spiritual consciousness.

Finally, they found an entrance on a mountainside in the mountains.

The entrance is ten meters in diameter and is extremely well hidden by a large number of vines hanging down from the outside.

And at the entrance.

It is also covered by an invisible restriction, which can only be discovered by those at the Dharma Aspect Realm or above, with the help of the Dharma Aspect Eye.

"Young Master Zhang, everyone."

"You step back first, and we'll break this barrier."

The four Dharma Aspect Realm experts from the Huang family stood in four different areas, reminding Zhang Yan and the others of something.

After Zhang Yan and the others retreated.

The four of them simultaneously released their own Dharma forms.

Zhang Yan stood at the back, watching the four of them intently.

A cultivator at the Dharma Aspect Realm.

As the name suggests, it can condense one's own Dharma form.

This Dharma form is transformed from the nascent soul.

This process is like a frail infant growing into a robust young adult.

A cultivator's own power ultimately has its limits.

The Dharma Image is controlled by the cultivator, and its power comes from heaven and earth.

The power of heaven and earth is boundless.

Therefore, once one reaches the Dharma Aspect Realm, one can be called a Great Cultivator.

The four Dharma Aspect Realm experts used their magic together, their palms swirling with the power of heaven and earth, radiating various colored rays of light, and landed on the restriction.

It's sizzling!

The invisible barrier was filled with lightning and crackled.

This lightning bolt may seem small, but if it strikes a cultivator, even a Nascent Soul cultivator would not be able to withstand it.

Even the powerful forces of heaven and earth were constantly being annihilated by the lightning.

"Master Zhang."

"The barrier has been broken; you may enter."

The leader of the Huang family, a peak Dharma Aspect Realm cultivator, confirmed once again that the restriction had disappeared.

"go in."

Zhang Yan nodded, and the group went inside.

After entering the cave, the interior suddenly opens up.

Although it is underground, there should be minerals similar to luminous pearls on the rock walls.

Scattered throughout the vast space, like scattered stars, it is extremely dreamlike.

The peak Dharma Aspect Realm cultivator from the Huang family searched for the Daoist essence left behind and found the path that Dongfang Yeyang and the others had taken.

The group moved forward quickly.

After advancing for several miles, the entrance to the cave became completely invisible.

Suddenly, a white cloud appeared in the darkness, casting a faint white light that attracted everyone's attention.

"In here underground."

"And there are such luminous clouds."

"Truly miraculous."

The Fifth Prince looked at the cloud and exclaimed in admiration.

The passing cloud helped everyone see the path around them.

"These clouds and mists are unusual."

Zhang Yan stared directly at the clouds and mist, always feeling a sense of crisis.

However, with eight Dharma Aspect Realm experts following them, the group didn't pay much attention and continued on their way.

But just as everyone was about to bypass the fog...

That slow-moving cloud.

Suddenly it spread, like a living thing, from a "disc" shape to a "stick" shape!

Stab it!

Moreover, when the moisture in the outside dissipates, what is revealed is a blazing white electric light!

The lightning bolt was moving at an extreme speed.

As if drawn by a force, it slashed down towards Zhang Yan and Dongfang Jing at the forefront.

The terrifying electric light made the air seem to boil.

Dongfang Jing felt as if every hair on his body was being pulled, as if he were about to be chopped into charcoal.

"Protect Young Master Zhang!"

The four Dharma Aspect Realm experts from the Huang family reacted swiftly, using the power of heaven and earth to form a large umbrella that enveloped Zhang Yan and the others.

"The light within these white clouds."

"It's emitted from tiny, internal sparks of electricity."

Zhang Yan suddenly realized what was going on and, looking at the still-shaken Dongfang Jing, analyzed the situation.

"terrible."

"Who would have thought."

"Could terrifying lightning bolts be hidden within these underground clouds?"

Dongfang Jing's face turned pale, and he said in horror.

boom!
The lightning bolts were blocked and, following the large umbrella formed by the power of heaven and earth, struck the stone wall behind them.

A boulder tens of meters long was shattered into dust.

"Get out of this area immediately."

Huang, a peak Dharma Aspect Realm cultivator, spoke in a deep voice.

The group immediately sped up.

After increasing their speed, the group not only failed to leave the thundercloud area smoothly, but also attracted more thunder from within.

Boom boom boom!
In an instant, lightning flashed like rain, and large sections of the rock wall were cleaved off.

Even the great umbrella formed by the power of heaven and earth had a layer removed, making it somewhat gray.

"Slow down first."

Zhang Yan suddenly spoke.

All cultivators at the Dharma Aspect Realm, with one thought in mind, immediately did as Zhang Yan had said.

Sure enough, as the speed decreased, the lightning in the white clouds immediately became gentler and its power greatly reduced.

"Can't it be faster?"

Dongfang Jing understood how to get rid of Baiyun.

"good."

"These white clouds are not living beings."

"Wandering in this cave, only when you sense something will your magical energy fluctuations be attracted."

"The faster we go, the stronger the magical fluctuations we generate, and the more terrifying the lightning becomes."

Zhang Yan explained.

"Young Master Zhang is indeed very insightful."

The crowd looked at each other in amazement and exclaimed in admiration.

Now that we know the reason, avoiding the white clouds is simple.

After slowing down, the white clouds returned to calm, supporting the power of heaven and earth and resisting the occasional bursts of lightning.

But it took more than a quarter of an hour to get around the white clouds that covered this mile.

At that speed, it's like a tortoise crawling.

After passing the first white cloud, the space ahead expanded again, and the interior was brightly lit, as bright as day.

However, this is not good news.

"So many thunderclouds?"

Dongfang Jing said with a frown.

Dozens of miles ahead, three clusters of white clouds can be seen at a glance.

It emitted a white light and moved slowly and peacefully.

But for those who had been struck by lightning, there was boundless killing power within those white clouds!
Moreover, if one takes a risk, the three thunderclouds might even converge together.

The lightning within will likely double!
"Please take note."

"We must not disturb these white clouds."

Dongfang Jing, still shaken, reminded everyone.

He had just experienced the feeling of being struck by lightning up close, and he didn't want to experience it a second time.

Although the speed is extremely slow.

But everyone still had to keep moving forward.

The power of heaven and earth stretched out, and the group bypassed the first cloud.

This white cloud is three miles in diameter, and with the detour, it will take more than half an hour to reach it.

The two clusters of white clouds behind them were even more terrifying.

Their diameters are all over five miles, and their speeds are even slower.

Zhang Yan stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the white clouds.

The outer layer of these white clouds is churning water vapor, while the inside is bursting with lightning.

Yet, a balance can be achieved.

This is also a wonder of nature, which can be very helpful in understanding the true meaning of heaven and earth.

Zhang Yan has grasped the true meaning of water and is now trying to understand the operating rules of the outer layer of white clouds.

"If one could comprehend the true meaning of thunder."

"My killing power will be greatly enhanced!"

"The power of the fire is already strong enough, but it is still a bit weak in the face of this lightning."

Zhang Yan murmured.

He comprehended the true meaning of the Fire Separation Sword from the Vermilion Bird.

It has already surpassed the vast majority of Nascent Soul cultivators.

Even Yue Ping, one of the eight phoenix chicks of Divine Phoenix Valley, coveted the true meaning of the Li Fire.

This demonstrates the extraordinary nature of the true meaning of the Fire of Departure.

But the true meaning of this thunder is even more terrifying.

This is the most tyrannical power in the universe.

Even many powerful cultivators at the Dharma Aspect Realm had to treat the lightning bolt with extreme caution.

The power of this true meaning is evident.

Zhang Yan, having gained insight into the white clouds, hoped that in addition to comprehending the true meaning of water, he might also be able to grasp a trace of the true meaning of thunder.

He was so engrossed in it that he forgot everything else.

But Xiao Wanyi, standing to the side, felt utterly helpless.

She thought of her father.

"In this Meteor Valley."

"The area is filled with thunderclouds; even if my father is at the Dharma Aspect Realm, he might not be able to withstand it."

"Moreover, six days have already passed."

"We are still so slow, the hope of seeing our father is extremely slim..."

Xiao Wanyi's eyes were slightly red, and she bit her lips, already in despair.

She glanced at Zhang Yan.

They didn't disturb him; Zhang Yan's presence at Meteor Valley was already more than enough.

Moreover, these white clouds are extremely dangerous, so it's impossible for them to speed up.

How could she possibly ask Zhang Yan for help again?

"Miss Xiao."

"We've done our best."

Whether or not Uncle Xiao can be saved is up to fate.

Dongfang Jing noticed the change in Xiao Wanyi, sighed softly, and offered words of comfort.

"I know."

Xiao Wanyi nodded, avoiding Dongfang Jing's gaze.

Although Dongfang Jing's words were not pleasant to hear, they were, after all, the truth.

That's all she can do now.

The two spoke in very low voices.

But it still reached Zhang Yan's ears.

He opened his eyes.

"Elders."

"Perhaps I have a way to avoid these white clouds."

Zhang Yan spoke, his voice calm, but it stirred up a storm in everyone's hearts.

"what?"

"Young Master Zhang found a solution so quickly?"

The assembled Dharma Realms were both surprised and delighted.

Xiao Wanyi was stunned. Looking at Zhang Yan's back, she was even more excited.

"Please wait a moment."

Zhang Yan clenched his right hand, and a blue light appeared, revealing the Azure Dragon Tremor-Slaying Sword in his grasp.

A powerful surge of true essence swept through the surroundings.

Then, the purest and most refined magical power within Zhang Yan surged forth and poured into the sword.

Dragon scale patterns appeared on the sword's blade, then its light surged, and it floated in the air, transforming into a blue dragon shaking its head and wagging its tail.

The Azure Dragon is only ten meters long, but its body is extremely solid.

A vast dragon's might spread out.

"Young Master Zhang's magical power."

"Though not a Nascent Soul cultivator, it is better than a Nascent Soul cultivator!"

The two Dharma Aspect Realm cultivators brought by Dongfang Jing exclaimed in amazement.

If not.

They could also sense Zhang Yan's golden core aura.

I thought Zhang Yan was already a Nascent Soul cultivator.

That pure magical power had already crossed the chasm between the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages, crushing all Golden Core cultivators—something never seen or heard of before!

"The origin of the Azure Dragon divine beast?"

"Young Master Zhang's sword is extraordinary!"

Several Dharma Aspect Realm experts from the Huang family expressed their admiration.

Although Zhang Yan's Azure Dragon Tremor Sword is only at the mid-stage of the fourth rank, it contains the essence of the Azure Dragon.

Even a fifth-tier magic weapon cannot compare to this magic sword.

"His strength."

"It's already this powerful?"

Xiao Wanyi stared at Zhang Yan, her heart filled with shock.

Although she knew Zhang Yan, she was unaware of his experiences over the years.

This single azure dragon phantom is enough to suppress early-stage Nascent Soul cultivators at will!
"Everyone."

"I'm not good enough."

"I need to borrow the power of your Dharma forms."

After conjuring the illusory image of the Azure Dragon, Zhang Yan addressed the crowd.

"Simple."

The group immediately mobilized their Dharma power, gathering the power of the Wood element from the void.

Groan!
The Azure Dragon phantom was nourished by the power of the Wood element, and its scales and fur became clearly visible, and its aura surged.

A brilliant azure light burst forth from the dragon's body, merging into the giant umbrella formed by the power of heaven and earth.

The meaning of Zhenmu (震木) is boundless.

The shimmering white clouds were actually separated by this light.

"It's now."

"Cross over this white cloud at top speed."

Zhang Yan gave a soft shout.

Inside the cave, a streak of blue light remained, followed by a trail of lightning.

But compared to before, these sparks are nothing.

The main body of the white clouds has not changed much.

A few breaths.

The group passed through the second cloud, saving more than an hour.

"efficient!"

The crowd looked on with delight, their admiration for Zhang Yan growing ever stronger.

"Thank you, Senior Brother!"

Xiao Wanyi pursed her red lips and thanked her repeatedly.

She knew that Zhang Yan must have gone to such lengths because of her.

otherwise.

Why not conserve some mana?
With Zhang Yan's Zhenmu True Meaning, Yi Xingrang's speed increased by more than ten times.

After venturing hundreds of miles into the cave, the group discovered faint traces of blood below.

"This was left behind by a cultivator at the Dharma Aspect Realm."

Huang, a peak-stage Dharma Aspect Realm cultivator, scanned the bloodstains below with his spiritual sense and spoke to Zhang Yan.

The body of a Dharma Aspect Realm cultivator undergoes a transformation, and even their blood contains Daoist principles.

These words meant nothing to Dongfang Jing.

But it reached Xiao Wanyi's ears.

But it made her feel as if an invisible hand was gripping her heart, filling her with immense worry.

With Dongfang Yeyang's ruthlessness.

These bloodstains are very likely left by her father! (End of Chapter)
