Transmigration: A person in a martial arts world, cultivating to ascend to immortality

Jiang Yuchuan's figure flickered, and he flew directly above the boiling magma. He then took out sixteen talismans and affixed them around the magma, surrounding it in the center.

Driven by Jiang Yuchuan's spiritual power, the talisman shone with dazzling light.

The sixteen activated talismans quickly linked together, forming a huge halo that firmly encircled the boiling magma.

After the halo formed by the talismans took shape, Jiang Yuchuan immediately channeled his spiritual power, using his fingers as a brush to draw complex and intricate array patterns in the air.

Once each array pattern is formed, it will fly to its corresponding location immediately and suppress the magma.

It took Jiang Yuchuan about fifteen minutes to finally finish inscribing all the array patterns.

At this moment, eighty-one array patterns, shimmering with azure light, were radiating a rich azure glow and surrounding and suppressing the magma.

Jiang Yuchuan looked down at the array patterns and made several hand seals.

Driven by the incantation, the eighty-one array patterns began to rotate rapidly. The light emitted by the sixteen talismans on the outer ring quickly converged with the rotating array patterns, eventually forming a huge circular array.

The moment the magic array was formed, Jiang Yuchuan extended two fingers together, pointed them in mid-air, and injected a wisp of pure spiritual energy into the magic array.

With the blessing of this spiritual power, the magic array was fully activated, and within a few breaths it suppressed the boiling magma, restoring it to its previous calm state.

Once the lava had completely calmed down, the magic circle slowly disappeared. Even the surrounding talismans vanished and merged into the stone wall.

After finishing everything, Jiang Yuchuan finally breathed a sigh of relief. Hearing the noisy crowd on the ground, he immediately concealed himself and flew away from the place.

……

The sudden tremors at the Yeshi mine alerted all the miners and guards on the mountain.

Everyone knew the importance of the Ye Stone mine to Dali, so no one dared to neglect it. Even though the mine was currently shaking violently and was very dangerous, someone had to go and check on the situation.

The people chosen to investigate were naturally the guards, whose strength and agility were both quite good.

Three people were chosen to investigate. They used their lightness skills to quickly climb to the mountainside of the mine.

The three people standing on the mountainside then discovered that a huge crack had been blasted into the side and rear of the mine, and they could feel a scorching heat emanating from the seemingly unfathomable crack from afar.

All three were startled, and none of them dared to approach.

"Go! Report this back immediately!"

One of their suggestions was unanimously agreed upon by the other two.

The three dared not linger and immediately flew down the mountain to return to the others.

Upon hearing the three men's report, the guard commander's expression grew even more grave. He then immediately gave orders to his subordinates:

"Quickly report this matter to the imperial court, and also inform the Linghu family!"

After everyone waited in a safe place for a while and felt the tremors gradually weakening, the guard commander immediately led more than a dozen skilled men to slowly approach the crack behind the mine.

The closer they got to the crack, the higher the temperature became. Soon, their faces were covered in sweat, and their clothes were soaked through.

"Why is it so hot?! What on earth is hidden underground?!"

"Who knows! Maybe the appearance of the Ye Stone is related to something underground!"

"With such high temperatures, could there be a huge, undiscovered vein of jasper beneath the crack?"

"I don't think so! The temperature of the lacquer stone isn't that high. I think what's hidden beneath this crack is probably a pool of magma!"

As they wiped their sweat and chatted amongst themselves, they soon arrived at the crack.

Upon closer inspection, the group discovered that the crack was much larger than they had anticipated, with the widest part exceeding ten feet in width.

The guard commander and a few of the bolder men cautiously made their way to the widest part of the crack.

After reaching the edge of the crack, the group craned their necks and peered down.

A wave of scorching heat blew in their faces, causing them to instinctively close their eyes. Only after the heat subsided slightly did they slowly open their eyes.

The sight below the crack astonished them all.

"I told you it was lava down there!"

one of them said.

Although he had guessed it earlier, when he actually saw the boiling magma hidden deep underground, he was still filled with shock and fear.

"Boss, do you think the lava won't erupt up there?"

Another person asked the guard commander with trepidation.

"should--"

Before the guard commander could finish speaking, he felt the ground shaking intensify again. His expression immediately changed, and he shouted to the others:

"Run! The shaking has started again!"

Just as the group was about to turn around and run away from the crevice, the person at the back glanced down again.

To his surprise, this unintentional glance left him completely stunned.

—What did he just see?

Someone is standing on top of the lava?!

Just as the man was about to look down again, his companion, who had turned back, grabbed his arm.

"You bastard! Run! Are you out of your mind?!"

Only then did the man realize the dangerous situation he was in, so he stopped struggling and let his companion pull him toward safety.

"What were you thinking? If I hadn't stopped you in time, were you planning to jump into that crack?"

Hearing his companion panting heavily and questioning him, the man hesitated for a moment before deciding to recount what he had just witnessed.

"I just saw a person standing on the lava!"

"A person is standing on the lava?"

"You weren't stunned by the shock, were you?"

"How could anyone possibly stand on lava? Even a grandmaster couldn't do that!"

Hearing his companions' laughter, the man shook his head with certainty: "I'm absolutely not mistaken, there's definitely someone under this crack!"

Everyone looked at that person with hopeless eyes.

The guard commander, however, looked thoughtful.

The dozen or so men he brought with him had all been by his side for several years.

Although he couldn't say he knew these people 100%, he was very clear about each person's personality and way of doing things.

Just like that subordinate who just claimed to have seen someone under the crack, he is meticulous in everything he does. In such a serious setting, he would never make such a baseless joke.

Therefore, this person's statement is either a hallucination or it is true!

He was more inclined to believe the former was true than the latter.

As someone has said before, even a grandmaster cannot stand on lava, let alone anyone else.

Therefore, it's impossible for anyone to exist below that crevice.

Just then, a dazzling blue light shot into the sky from beneath the crack.

The blue light came quickly and disappeared just as fast. The surroundings illuminated by the blue light and the stunned faces of the crowd were soon covered by the night again.

After the blue light dissipated, the shaking of the ground stopped instantly, and the scorching temperature around us seemed to decrease significantly as well.

"What, what exactly is that light?!"
