CHAPTER 1379: CHAPTER 1379: BLUE MIST

Law Vortex!

Xu Nian had now come to understand this term.

It seems that this place, Xianjue Mountain, exists within the Law Vortex, which is why those who enter cannot exit.

And comprehending such unusual laws is indeed a very difficult task.

Of course, Emperor Ye Tian also said that if one can comprehend it, it would be a great opportunity for him.

After all, such peculiar laws surely possess immense power.

"Brother Xu, you’re not really planning to go in, are you?" Li Tian felt something was off when he saw Xu Nian’s expression.

He had spoken to this extent.

Never expected Xu Nian would still want to go in.

In his view, Xu Nian was courting death.

"I do intend to go in, but it’s not my true self." Xu Nian laughed.

After speaking, his figure blurred, and he suddenly split into two.

The Divine Demon Avatar appeared directly outside.

"An avatar?" Li Tian showed a look of surprise.

The proud man beside him and the burly man also looked astonished.

They didn’t expect the young man before them to have an avatar.

But they quickly sneered.

"It’s not like no one tried using avatars to explore this Immortal Extinguishing Mountain, but once the avatars went in, they lost contact with their true selves." The proud man sneered and said.

"Yes, Brother Xu, although you have an avatar, crafting an avatar isn’t easy. Once the avatar enters, it loses connection with the true self. You’re just wasting an avatar for nothing." Li Tian added.

"Don’t worry, Brother Li, I’m aware of the dangers of this Immortal Extinguishing Mountain, so I’m mentally prepared." Xu Nian said.

After speaking, Xu Nian looked at the Divine Demon Avatar.

The Divine Demon Avatar nodded towards Xu Nian’s true self and then dashed towards the Blue Mist Tide.

However, the Divine Demon Avatar didn’t go in directly but stopped around the Blue Mist Tide.

"Hey, brother, are you also here to collect Fairy Crystal Stones?" A Profound Immortal laughed and said to Xu Nian.

"Yes, how often do these Fairy Crystal Stones appear, and generally, how many are there?" The Divine Demon Avatar asked with a smile.

"Typically, once every fifteen minutes, as for the quantity, it’s not fixed. Sometimes just two or three at a time, sometimes hundreds or thousands, but we don’t hope for too many, it would be too terrifying and likely fatal." That Profound Immortal laughed.

Xu Nian heard this and said no more.

Silently waiting.

He wanted to try and see just how terrifying these Fairy Crystal Stones really were.

Sure enough, half an incense stick later.

There came a few whooshing sounds from inside.

Not far away, several Immortals took action, hurriedly summoning their weapons or using Immortal Laws to grab at the rapidly approaching Immortal Essence Stones.

The young man who had been speaking with the Divine Demon Avatar also moved.

He quickly formed hand seals, creating an Immortal Array.

An enormous Immortal Shield appeared within the array.

"Clang!"

A Fairy Crystal Stone struck the Immortal Shield.

Instantly sending the Profound Immortal flying several hundred yards along with the shield.

However, the power of the Fairy Crystal Stone was eventually blocked.

The young man wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and held a palm-sized Fairy Crystal Stone, showing a proud smile to Xu Nian.

Xu Nian smiled slightly.

"Whoosh!"

Just then, a stream of light raced towards Xu Nian.

Xu Nian’s eyes narrowed, and then he reached out to grab the Fairy Crystal Stone.

"Is this guy an idiot? Grabbing with his hand?"

"Obviously a newbie, he’ll probably get a taste of pain soon enough."

...

The surrounding ridicule sounded.

"Use a weapon!" That Profound Immortal immediately reminded.

Yet Xu Nian seemed to not have heard.

"Idiot!"

The proud man standing next to Xu Nian’s true self spoke disdainfully.

Xu Nian glanced at him, smiled slightly, and didn’t explain.

"Boom!"

Just when everyone thought Xu Nian’s entire arm would shatter.

The Fairy Crystal Stone struck Xu Nian’s palm, emitting a sky-shattering explosion.

Yet Xu Nian’s body did not move an inch, and his arm remained intact.

The Fairy Crystal Stone was firmly held in his grasp.

"What?"

The crowd was taken aback.

This young man actually held onto the Fairy Crystal Stone?

How is that possible?

The Profound Immortal was stunned.

The proud man also widened his eyes, showing an incredulous expression.

"Divine Demon Refining Body, Brother Xu, you’ve been hiding quite deeply." Li Tian saw through the prowess of Xu Nian’s avatar, speaking in surprise.

"It’s just a small trick." Xu Nian laughed.

Now, the Divine Demon Avatar’s physical body was extremely powerful, comparable to a Mid-grade Immortal Artifact.

Though the force of the Fairy Crystal Stone was great, using some techniques to deflect it made catching the Fairy Crystal Stone not difficult.

"Brother Xu is indeed unfathomable." Li Tian marveled.

Xu Nian chuckled silently.

At this moment, the Divine Demon Avatar was examining the Fairy Crystal Stone in his hand.

The energy contained within the Fairy Crystal Stone was extremely pure and vast.

Much larger than that of a Top-grade Immortal Essence Stone.

A single Fairy Crystal Stone’s energy was at least equivalent to a hundred Top-grade Immortal Essence Stones.

Moreover, the quality of the energy seemed even higher.

No wonder so many people risked waiting here for these Fairy Crystal Stones.

And the Fairy Crystal Stone in Xu Nian’s hand was only the size of a bun. Some stones reportedly could be as large as a head.

The energy contained would be even more terrifying, though catching such a large Fairy Crystal Stone would not be easy.

"Roar!"

At that moment, the blue mist behind Xu Nian suddenly surged.

It moved swiftly, engulfing Xu Nian in an instant.

"Haha, thought this guy would be a strong competitor, didn’t expect him to be gone so soon."

From afar came mocking laughter from some strong collectors of Fairy Crystal Stones.

"What a pity, I wanted to make a friend." The young man who had been talking to the Divine Demon Avatar also spoke regretfully.

Once engulfed by this blue mist, there was no coming out, equaled to being dead.

Li Tian then looked at Xu Nian’s true self beside him.

He knew Xu Nian did it on purpose.

"How about it? Can you sense your avatar?" Li Tian asked.

The burly man and the proud man also showed puzzled faces.

"The connection is severed, I can no longer sense the avatar’s presence," Xu Nian said truthfully.

At this moment, he indeed lost contact with the Divine Demon Avatar.

Just as the blue mist engulfed, an invisible force seemed to sever the soul connection between him and the Divine Demon Avatar directly.

This feeling was very unsettling.

"As expected, once the avatar enters, it loses connection with the true self. These reports are indeed true." Li Tian said.

Xu Nian nodded.

Now he could only trust the Divine Demon Avatar on its own.

...

As soon as the Divine Demon Avatar entered the blue mist, it felt intense soul pain.

Then the whole person fainted.

When he awoke again, he was already in a mountain forest.

"So this is the interior of the Immortal Extinguishing Mountain? There’s no mist here."

Xu Nian looked at the blue mist permeating the mountain forest ahead, he had just been drawn in from there.
