Imperial Cultivation Chapter 1534 - 1530: Cyan Bird

Chu Zhiyuan curiously examined the eight round beads.

The patterns on the eight beads were different, but otherwise, there was no difference.

The Elephant Beast landed on his left shoulder, while the eight beads circled above their heads.

"How is it?" Elephant Beast’s triumphant voice sounded in Chu Zhiyuan’s mind.

"Can these eight round beads form an array?"

"They are treasures!"

"As far as I know, array formation is your innate ability, do you still need their assistance?"

"I refined these eight!" Elephant Beast said smugly, "Polishing them bit by bit, even without me, they can still be arranged to form an array like if I personally arranged it."

"Great treasures!" Chu Zhiyuan laughed.

He then said, "With these eight round beads, we can arrange an array on Dragon Mountain. With the array, we have stronger defenses and can hope to establish ourselves, right?"

"Combine it with your teleportation, and you can give it a try."

"Shall we get started then?"

"Let’s go."

The next moment, the two reappeared at the foot of Dragon Mountain.

Dragon Mountain had returned to its quiet state, appearing empty and desolate.

But behind them, the roaring river continued to surge tirelessly.

Chu Zhiyuan said, "If this doesn’t work, then there really is no way."

The Taiqing Primordial Sect was very important to him.

Initially, he wasn’t concerned about the encounter in the New Cave Heaven, thinking he had the Cloud Dragon Fist, but obtaining some Divine Race objects would be great.

However, after seeing the valley where Taiqing Primordial Sect was located, his thoughts completely changed.

He went from being indifferent to extremely eager, unwilling to miss this opportunity.

Eight flying knives emerged from his sleeves, silently hovering in mid-air, each resting before a round bead.

"Start with a Mystic Concealment Array, quickly, or before the array is set, the Shattering Bees will come!"

"How to arrange a Mystic Concealment Array?"

"You truly are dumb!"

"I’m not well-versed in arrays, indeed."

"Humph, listen, the eight beads have to be distributed like this..."

Elephant Beast clarified the positions of each round bead in his mind.

Chu Zhiyuan kept nodding.

Eight flying knives slowly aligned with the beads, and the next moment, they rushed into the Dragon Mountain’s range.

The speed suddenly plunged, hesitating and struggling.

The energy of the Heavenly Dragon Introduction flowed through the blade, constantly absorbing the surrounding power to enhance itself, gradually speeding up.

Elephant Beast’s pupil transformed once more into vertical golden lines, the golden light shone brightly.

It fixed its gaze ahead, continually urging Chu Zhiyuan in his mind.

"Faster! Quick, quick!"

"It still needs to be quicker!"

"This slowness won’t do!"

...

Chu Zhiyuan ignored its incessant urging, concentrating on the eight flying knives.

The stronger the concentration, the faster the Heavenly Dragon Introduction operated, and as it ran faster, the power absorption speed also increased.

As the pace quickened, the eight flying knives accelerated.

"Go!"

Suddenly, Elephant Beast’s scream echoed in his mind.

This time, Chu Zhiyuan did not respond; he remained in place, concentrating on propelling the eight knives.

"Go go go!"

Elephant Beast’s shrieks felt as if they were about to pierce the void in his mind.

The Miao Jing Spirit Water gently rippled, nullifying the acoustic attack.

Elephant Beast’s tail was already tightly coiled around Chu Zhiyuan’s left shoulder, seemingly desperate to drag him away.

Two Shattering Bees had now gracefully arrived, dancing like partners, delightful to behold.

But neither Elephant Beast nor Chu Zhiyuan felt any delight, only the hairs on their bodies standing up straight, the chill creeping up their spines.

"Move! Move! Move! Move!"

Elephant Beast screamed.

Chu Zhiyuan stood firmly, watching the two Shattering Bees flutter over to the front of the flying knives.

The knives continued to advance forward, following his will closely approaching the Taiqing Primordial Sect’s valley.

The knives acted as if they didn’t see the Shattering Bees, continuing forward, gaining speed.

The two Shattering Bees circled the eight knives, ultimately not striking.

Elephant Beast halted its screaming in his mind.

Its tail loosened slightly, with its pupils becoming vertical gold lines again.

When it screamed "Go" again, Chu Zhiyuan left without hesitation.

Meanwhile, the eight knives gently fell to the ground, and the eight beads also landed.

The eight knives vanished silently in front of an abruptly appearing Cyan Bird.

A sparrow-sized small green bird, as if carved from jade, with eyes like gemstones, sparking cold light.

It hovered above the flying knives and round beads, its wings forming blurred shadows.

One could see its body but not clearly its wings.

The sparking cold light swept around, unable to find the knives and beads, then dived down and skimmed the ground.

A network of crisscrossing deep marks instantly etched into the ground, as if plowed.

It soared into the sky, disappearing in a flash.

Chu Zhiyuan and Elephant Beast stood at its cave entrance, observing the situation through the knives, breathing a long sigh of relief.

Elephant Beast transformed into a streak of white light and vanished.

Chu Zhiyuan chuckled.

Knowing this time he had angered Elephant Beast.

However, his intuition about danger was more acute, realizing the appearance of the Shattering Bees wasn’t threatening, hence not immediately teleporting away.

To Elephant Beast, this was undoubtedly a reckless adventure.

This time, he had indeed frightened it greatly.

He thought for a moment and disappeared in a flash.

The next moment, he appeared outside the range of Dragon Mountain, using the flying knives to spread out the Super Sense.

But the Super Sense inside Dragon Mountain was indeed distorted.

He thought for a moment, taking out a bowl of water, infusing it with Super Sense and Divine Essence.

His Divine Eye just about to activate, he instantly disappeared.

The next moment, several white shadows swept past his location, with deep grooves appearing on the ground.

At this moment, the green bird appeared in the sky.

Chu Zhiyuan was secretly worried.

The strange beasts and items within Dragon Mountain, each extremely fast, one faster than the other.

Previously, the Shattering Bees and God-slaying Mosquitoes were considered frighteningly fast.

Yet compared to this green bird, they were still somewhat lacking.

This green bird’s speed was incredibly fast; if he had no Super Sense, he wouldn’t have been able to react.

His face immediately turned grim.

Because the green bird was also a member of the Taiqing Primordial Sect’s valley.

He activated his Divine Eye, beginning to look toward Dragon Mountain.

His spirit seemed to step onto a higher dimension, beyond time and space, able to observe at will.

He could look into the past, and the future, or in the present, both inside and outside.

The whole Dragon Mountain became clear in his eyes, the distorted light and shadow slowly correcting.

He saw the strange energies floating over Dragon Mountain, like threads, like wisps, like mist, like gauze.

The Super Sense couldn’t clearly perceive them before, but now everything is clear.

They came from the trees, from the ground, gathering in increasing numbers.

They had already formed layers of gauze screens, like layers of mosquito nets wrapping the entire Dragon Mountain.

Inside Dragon Mountain, countless strange insects, birds, flowers, and grasses.

The strange species seen by the Divine Eye had extremely high life levels, at least twenty posed threats to him.

With his current cultivation and power, forcing his way in would mean certain death.

To enter the Taiqing Primordial Sect within Dragon Mountain, surprising steps must be taken, ordinary methods will not work.

Direct teleportation to the Taiqing Primordial Sect’s valley also meant certain death.

Not only was the valley filled with Dragon Mountain’s strange power, but also the Taiqing Primordial Sect’s unique arrays.

The arrays absorbed surrounding abnormal power, transforming it into more formidable force.

Turning the gauze into storms.

Any entry into Taiqing Primordial Sect’s valley, unless considered kin, would end in destruction.

The Shattering Bee, God-slaying Mosquito, and the Fragile Bird, were all Taiqing Primordial Sect’s creatures.

They could enter and exit freely, including twelve other strange beasts that could come and go.

Chu Zhiyuan stopped his Divine Eye, his face pale.

He had completely extinguished the idea of teleporting directly to Taiqing Primordial Sect’s valley.

Even the knives didn’t need to go there; they would be inevitably destroyed.
