Chapter 27: Stepping into the Immortal Gate Again
Purple lightning split the sky, illuminating the winding stone steps.

Two silhouettes climbed the stairs against the wind, gradually reaching the long steps of the fairy mountain, their robes rustling in the wind.

Su Cheng narrowed his eyes and looked at the ferocious peak in the mist: "When I left Huanxing Sect a few days ago, it was also this horrible weather."

"Are you really sure of victory?"

Shi Xuan's voice rang out with a hint of worry: "Your cultivation is indeed advancing by leaps and bounds, and you have the means to contend with those in the Xinxuan realm. But wouldn't it be too risky to rashly charge into the enemy camp?"

Although she only came to inspect once every three years, she had some knowledge of the layout of the Huanxing Sect.

Once the enemy deploys its battle formation in time, even a cultivator with a profound mind who attempts to break into the mountain gate will be subjected to extremely fierce suppression.

What's more, there are the acting sect leader and others in charge, who will definitely not watch him recklessly act.

"It wouldn't hurt to give it a try." Su Cheng's boots crushed the moss as he ascended the steps. "The Huanxing Sect has completely dropped their disguise, and now a large number of disciples and elders have vanished. They'll attack Jingyang Town tomorrow morning at the latest. Rather than dragging the civilians into battle, we'd rather have a showdown on the mountain."

Shi Xuan was silent for a moment, then smiled: "Although the young master's attack is cruel, he has a kind heart."

Su Cheng remained silent. In his opinion, it was just to reduce the burden and avoid distraction during the battle.

Now Duan Mocheng and Wen Qimeng followed his instructions and led the soldiers to guard the town gate, so there was no need to worry about any fish slipping through the net and escaping into the town.

"Well, since you've made up your mind, I'll keep you company for a bit." Shi Xuan said with a hint of a smile, "I know a thing or two about the formations and mystical arts within the Huanxing Sect. You can follow my instructions and break them one by one."

"Okay, thank you for your help, Miss Shi."

Su Cheng just nodded in response when he suddenly stopped.

He stared secretly, and a transparent barrier appeared above the stone steps, blocking the way up the mountain.

"This is."

"The sect's protective formation," Shi Xuan explained. "The Huanxing Sect uses the 'Seven Mysterious Condensing Star Formation.' While its rank isn't high, it draws on the power of spiritual veins to maintain its operation. It cannot be broken by ordinary means, unless one possesses the power to destroy mountains and split the earth."

She quickly changed the subject: "I will teach you a mantra that will allow you to pass through this formation directly without being restricted by it."

Su Cheng listened attentively, quickly memorized the key points of the mantra, and urged the black iron spiritual energy to move towards the barrier.

Zhi——!
But just as he was about to make contact, a flash of blood suddenly appeared, and a scorch mark appeared on the mossy stone steps.

Su Cheng paused slightly: "It seems... it didn't work?"

Shi Xuan couldn't help but sigh softly, "When did they tamper with the sect protection formation and replace it with the 'Xuansha Heart Blood Formation'?"

"What's different about this formation?"

"Not only does it use the spirit vein as its foundation, it also uses blood and energy as fuel. It can continuously devour and refine flesh and blood to replenish the formation. The profound arts performed by Elder Lian Xiu, with whom you fought, were derived from this."

Shi Xuan's tone was a bit colder. "This formation is extremely sinister. I didn't expect them to be so decisive."

Su Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Is there any other way to break the formation?"

"Give me some time, and I can break it."

"Okay, take your time." Su Cheng was not in a hurry. He also wanted to see how the Huanxing Sect would react when they saw someone coming up the mountain tonight.

Now the spiritual energy reserves in the space are very abundant, so naturally there is enough confidence.

At this moment, a dark blue system panel suddenly unfolded.

Su Cheng glanced at the words and his eyes narrowed slightly.

[Detected 'Xuan Sha Heart Blood Formation'. Grade Xuanpin]

[Whether to absorb] [Whether to set this formation as a sect protection formation]

"."

Su Cheng was stunned for a moment, and soon showed a strange expression.

I didn't expect that my 'Xianzong System' would have such a function?
But since it is an immortal sect, I think it should have a large formation to protect the sect.

"Miss Shi."

"I'll be there soon. I'll teach you the new mantra—" "No need." Su Cheng summoned a silver-white spiritual light in his palm and slowly pressed it towards the barrier. "This great protective formation now belongs to me."

In the main hall of the Immortal Mountain, the three elders were all shocked and confused when they heard the words of the acting sect leader.

"Who trespassed into the mountain gate?!"

Wang Yangshuo's face was gloomy. He quickly took out the blood jade from his waist and activated the sect protection formation. He used the power of the formation to condense blood eyes above the sect.

A bloodshot glint flashed in his eyes as he quickly glimpsed the situation outside the barrier. "There are two people. One is a mortal without any spiritual energy, and the other is a cultivator!"

Upon closer inspection, Wang Yangshuo's expression grew increasingly astonished. "This person's aura is truly concentrated!"

In his eyes, the man was overflowing with abundant silver spiritual energy, burning like the scorching sun, appearing extremely dazzling and hot in the dark night.

"Perfect Entry into the Mysterious Realm. No, could it be that he is a cultivator in the Mysterious Heart Realm?!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of the two elders beside him also changed.

"Xinxuan Realm?"

"Could this person be the culprit?!" Sheng Yonghan suddenly revealed his anger: "How dare he! He killed our sect's elders and disciples, and now he dares to enter the mountain gate openly. He is simply seeking death!"

"Let's go and kill this—"

"Wait!"

The middle-aged man suddenly extended his hand to block the attack, saying in a deep voice, "This person has been able to repeatedly ruin our sect's plans. He is definitely not a reckless person. Now he has come to our door without any fear. He must be hiding some treacherous tactics and is waiting for us to reveal ourselves."

Wang Yangshuo's forehead veins throbbed violently, and he suppressed his impulse: "According to Senior Brother, we should now..."

"Let's test him with the sect protection formation first." The middle-aged man's eyes flashed with murderous intent. "If we can kill him with the formation, that would be great. If not, I will personally take action!"

"Alright!" Wang Yangshuo shouted, immediately performing a spell. "My disciples, listen to my command. Together, activate the Spirit Jade and offer the Spirit... Uh?"

But before he finished speaking, he seemed to have seen something incredible and his eyes gradually widened.

"How, how is this possible?!"

"What's wrong?!" The elders beside him looked sideways in surprise, and even the acting sect leader couldn't help but look back.

Wang Yangshuo was dumbfounded: "This person is actually absorbing the spiritual energy of the sect protection formation?!"

"."

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

Absorb the spiritual energy of the sect protection formation?
For a moment, they just felt it was extremely absurd. How could such a thing happen in the world?

But as they peered in with bloodshot eyes, they all showed shock. "It's actually true?!"

The man, radiating blazing silver flames, stretched out his hand to press against the great barrier. A surge of spiritual energy was forcibly drawn away from all directions. The force of the spiritual energy absorption was so intense that even fine cracks began to appear in the barrier in front of the mountain gate!

"call--"

On the mountainside, Su Cheng's body was surrounded by mottled spiritual light, which turned into a howling gale.

The originally profound and mysterious sect protection formation now rolled up into surging waves under his palms, and the spiritual energy turned into a tide.

[Black Iron Spiritual Energy: 1.11.2] [Spiritual Evil Spiritual Energy: 1.11.2]

The spiritual energy reserves of the two attributes are increasing rapidly at an astonishing speed.

Not only that, there is also a progress reminder symbolizing the great array of protection of the sect -

[Absorbing 5% to 6% of the sect's protective formation]

The essentials and essence of the Xuansha Heart Blood Formation were being analyzed at full speed by the system, and all of it was transformed into text and poured into the mind.

Su Cheng's eyes flashed with intelligence, and as if a blessing came to his mind, a blood-red eye condensed in the sky, looking directly towards the direction of the mountain gate hall.
