Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil in the Cultivation World Chapter 1126 - 546: Turning Point of Destiny, Awakening of the Mansion Spirit

"So, they're clashing over a treasure?"

Jiang Fan rubbed his chin.

His divine sense scanned the surroundings, detecting the states of these Void Refining Cultivators, and he grasped the situation right away.

Simply put, one Void Refining Cultivator had secured a treasure from the Cangwu Immortal Mansion.

But then, the others learned about it.

As a result, these Void Refining Cultivators engaged in a brutal struggle to claim the treasure.

Truth be told, such events had been routine over the past year in the Cangwu Immortal Mansion, nothing out of the ordinary.

"Yet, have these Void Refining Cultivators already fallen under the influence of strange forces?"

Right then, Jiang Fan squinted his eyes.

Employing the Emperor’s Qi Observation Skill, he spotted strands of black mist enveloping these Void Refining Cultivators.

Even deeper inside them, this eerie aura had merged completely.

That power caused their greed to swell without bounds.

Normally, these Void Refining Cultivators tended to be prudent and wary.

With their extensive cultivation history, they rarely battled to the death unless absolutely forced.

Whenever possible through talks, they avoided needless conflict.

Yet, the corruption by the strange force turned their tempers wildly ferocious.

Like a barrel of gunpowder, ready to explode at the tiniest spark.

Exactly for this reason, over the year, countless Void Refining Cultivators clashed in savage combat, pushing toward utter destruction.

He barely needed to lift a finger before numerous Otherworld Void Refining Cultivators met their end.

Should this trend persist, chances are no Void Refining Cultivators would make it out of the Cangwu Immortal Mansion alive.

Boom~~

Right at that instant, a transmission plunged straight into the depths of his sea of consciousness.

"When the sandpiper and the clam fight, it’s the fisherman who benefits. Fate can be truly whimsical, for these Otherworld Void Refining Cultivators' arrival stirs the currents of destiny, creating a swirling maelstrom. After a full year of waiting, you've at last uncovered a path to draw near the strange forces around the Cangwu Immortal Mansion."

"Destiny will give you hints."

"Fate Hint One: For the clash among these Otherworld Void Refining Cultivators, you could simply observe the tigers battling from the safety of the mountain, striking fatally at the critical juncture to slay them all and reap the maximum rewards. Thus, every treasure in their possession would fall into your hands. Yet, this choice would paint you as the prime target for the strange forces inside Cangwu Immortal Mansion, placing all your moves under their scrutiny and utterly forfeiting any chance to eliminate them."

"Fate Hint Two: The skirmishes between these Void Refining Cultivators mean nothing at all, and the prizes they bicker over are worthless to you, like scraps for a dog. Still, their fights will ripple across a vast expanse of hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

Amid the chaos, their clashes will trigger void quakes, spawning a void vortex in a specific spot. Seize that moment to plunge into the void vortex and access the assessment lands of the Cangwu Immortal Mansion."

"Fate Hint Three: The assessment lands in Cangwu Immortal Mansion are zones the strange forces will never permit any cultivator to breach. They aim to confine all cultivators to the outer zones, ensuring no threats emerge. This stands as your sole chance to infiltrate the assessment lands, though entry will enrage the strange forces utterly.

Luckily, within Cangwu Immortal Mansion, the strange forces face restrictions on their movements. Your entry will momentarily rouse the Mansion Spirit, granting you some aid."

Jiang Fan's pupils shrank as he absorbed this transmission.

He had figured these Void Refining Cultivators' arrival would merely disrupt his secluded cultivation at worst.

Little did he expect their presence to herald a pivotal shift in the threads of destiny.

He had long been mulling over ways to breach the core regions of Cangwu Immortal Mansion.

Now, the path had revealed itself at last.

After all, the strange forces vigilantly barred cultivators from entering Cangwu Immortal Mansion.

Absent some unforeseen chaos, penetrating the assessment lands proved impossible.

Entering the assessment lands, however, meant direct confrontation with the strange forces.

No alternatives existed.

From the start, they had been his sworn enemies.

Only death could bring resolution.

Boom~~

In a flash, the external brawl involving over a dozen Void Refining Cultivators escalated ferociously.

They unleashed every technique at their disposal, summoning diverse Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasures and igniting all sorts of Divine Powers.

Each blow sent the heavens and earth quaking violently.

The earth rumbled as fissures ripped open the ground, mountains tumbled down, and the void itself shuddered.

One could easily imagine the savage backlash they provoked, every strike brimming with deadly force.

Boom~~

Right then, as the Void Refining Cultivators clashed once more, horrifying magical energy exploded like a raging flood devouring hundreds of thousands of kilometers.

Cracks spiderwebbed through the void, while the Cangwu Immortal Mansion shuddered faintly.

The next instant, a dark whirlpool abruptly formed within the void.

No one knew where this dark whirlpool led, and it lasted only a fleeting moment, much like a brief system error.

Regular Void Refining Cultivators would scarcely detect it, and even if they did, capturing the opportunity proved impossible, for the dark whirlpool quickly healed thanks to the Cangwu Immortal Mansion's inherent restorative power.

Whish!

But Jiang Fan caught sight of it. Without a moment's pause, he unleashed the Divine Power—Shrinking Earth into Inches!

His body spanned countless kilometers in an instant, reaching the dark whirlpool.

At once, Jiang Fan's form plunged into the dark whirlpool, vanishing utterly from that space.
