Cultivation starts from devouring the Dao fruits

Chapter 189 Mountain Sect Ruins

boom! boom! boom!

accompanied by a series of booming sounds, the ground trembled as a massive mountain range, encompassing a thousand miles and covered with countless spiritual peaks, rose from beneath the ground.

that thousand-mile radius, previously lifeless red sand desert, instantly transformed into a region abundant with spiritual energy, dotted with spiritual peaks and growing numerous spiritual trees.

the entire mountain range was enveloped in a faint barrier; that mountain range was once the site of the ancient great sect of mountaineer.

"this barrier is too weak! i reckon it could be entered and exited freely without the token of the great sect of mountaineer's true disciples."

zhao yu touched the barrier, a hint of regret passing through his eyes, and activated the token in his hand. a pale yellow light surged out and merged into the barrier.

the barrier directly opened up a gap, and zhao yu strode through it.

upon entering the mountaineer sect, zhao yu immediately felt an extremely rich wave of spiritual power rushing toward him.

a glint of intense desire flashed in zhao yu's eyes, "in ancient times, the mountaineer sect possessed a fifth-order high-grade spirit vein, but the activation of the great array that buried the entire sect underground and moved it here must have damaged the underground spirit vein. there should still be a spirit vein around the fifth-order middle-grade or fifth-order low-grade here."

in the great qian empire, only those nascent soul powers that occupied fifth-order spirit veins could grow strong, cultivate various rare spiritual medicines, attract numerous talents, and foster many golden core and nascent soul cultivators generation after generation.

some nascent soul loose cultivators could only occupy a fourth-order spirit vein or merely a few fourth-order spiritual peaks for cultivation, choosing to live freely without the thought of establishing a sect.

zhao yu looked around and saw pits and hollows everywhere, scattered with countless skeletons; clearly, this place had experienced cruel slaughters.

zhao yu's gaze swiftly swept over the skeletons and he directly flew towards the direction of the mountaineer sect's spiritual medicine garden.

the most precious treasures of the mountaineer sect were the spiritual medicines in the garden, which had grown for countless years.

"a naturally born mid-grade spirit ghost!! truly a rare treasure!"

upon seeing that evil spirit, zhao yu's eyes brightened. that third-order high-grade evil spirit was a spirit ghost among the kings of a hundred specters, and it was also a mid-grade spirit ghost.

for sects like the ghost cultivation sects who controlled spirits, that mid-grade spirit ghost was undoubtedly a treasure more precious than anything else.

the white ghost emperor's figure flickered, turning into a streak of black qi and appeared behind the mid-grade spirit ghost, its claw piercing directly through the body of the spirit ghost, and with one gulp, it swallowed the spirit ghost into its stomach.

zhao yu activated the devouring dao fruit, helping the white ghost emperor to refine all the swallowed ghost creatures and transform them into its cultivation level.

the great sect had now turned into a ghost region teeming with ghost creatures, where terrifying evil ghosts could be seen everywhere.

however, the white ghost emperor by zhao yu's side was a fourth-order spirit ghost, the king of all ghosts, and the moment those evil ghosts appeared, they were swallowed in one gulp, powerless to resist.

"found it!! the spiritual medicine garden of the great sect!!"

following the memories of ning haozi and fighting all along, zhao yu finally arrived in front of the largest spiritual medicine garden of the great sect.

the spiritual medicine garden covered thousands of hectares and was enveloped by a powerful barrier, within which grew rare and unparalleled heavenly materials and earthly treasures.

in front of that spiritual medicine garden lay three corpses, one was a taoist dressed in a black taoist robe, another was a monk draped in robes, and the last one was a cultivator dressed in official attire.

the skin of those three corpses was very bizarre, emitting a golden glow, as if their entire bodies were cast in gold.

these three bodies, originally lying on the ground, suddenly opened their eyes. deep red eyes locked onto zhao yu, a massive amount of corpse qi surged out from their bodies, emitting an incredibly terrifying pressure as they lunged towards zhao yu.

zhao yu's expression changed drastically, "combat power on par with nascent soul cultivators? and there're three of them!!"

the white ghost emperor's expression turned fierce, and it activated the illusory ghost eyes, a massive amount of ghost fog bursting from its body and madly rushing towards the three golden corpses.

the three golden corpses, expressionless, plunged headfirst into the ghost fog created by the white ghost emperor. confusion surged in their eyes followed by endless brutality, furiously attacking each other.
