What is an immortal?

Chapter 517: Incitement and Chaos


"Well said, since Fellow Daoist Ming Quan has gifted me with these Ancient Beast Breeding Spirit Pills and Beast Food Pills, how could I not handle matters diligently? Who would have imagined that Fellow Daoist Ming Quan would be so fortunate to have obtained the inheritance of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain from the Ancient Beast Taming Sect? Where did you discover this?" Qiong Hai Island Master chuckled.

As he spoke these last words, the hand hidden in his sleeve gently rotated a green jade ring, aiming it at Ancestor Ming Quan.

A faint luminous glow emanated from the ring, slowly turning.

"It's quite the coincidence. Over a century ago, as I was traveling deep in the Wu Country's Feiyun Mountain Range, I stumbled upon the ruins of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain," Ancestor Ming Quan said with a hint of trance, speaking as if he were dreaming.

"Feiyun Mountain Range in Wu Country? Are there others who know of this matter?" Interest flickered in Qiong Hai Island Master's eyes as he pressed on.

"Yes, on that day, White Scale of the Snake-man Clan was with me, and he took half of the inheritance of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain," Ancestor Ming Quan continued to murmur.

"White Scale Master..." Qiong Hai Island Master's brow furrowed, just about to inquire further when the glow from the ring quickly dimmed and disappeared after a few breaths.

"My Soul Power is still insufficient; I can only activate this Soul Stealing Ring for a few breaths..." Qiong Hai Island Master muttered to himself, pocketing the ring.

"The Beast Food Pills are a secret elixir from Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain. They not only accelerate a demon beast's cultivation but also increase its chances of breakthrough. Fellow Daoist Wei's Sea Flipping Beast has been stuck at the Third-level Peak for nearly a hundred years. With prolonged intake of Beast Food Pills, it should break through in less than ten years," Ancestor Ming Quan's expression gradually returned to normal as he continued, oblivious to the fact that he had just been mentally manipulated.

"Really? If my Sea Flipping Beast could break through, I, Wei, will certainly offer a grand reward," Qiong Hai Island Master happily said.

Just as Ancestor Ming Quan was about to speak, a white light shot in from outside, transforming into a Sound Transmission Talisman fluttering about.

Qiong Hai Island Master's brows slightly furrowed as he grabbed the talisman, his Divine Sense entering it and his expression changing.

"Has something happened on your island? If so, Fellow Daoist Wei, please go ahead and deal with it. Don't worry about me," Ancestor Ming Quan said as he sipped from his teacup.

"Hehe, it's not Qiong Hai Island that has an issue, but rather a situation has arisen on Fusang Island. If Fellow Daoist Ming Quan is free lately, perhaps you could also go take a look," Qiong Hai Island Master stood up and suggested.

Upon hearing this, a flicker of surprise crossed Ancestor Ming Quan's eyes.

The two soon stepped outside and were greeted by a soaring silver column and a row of characters that appeared before their eyes.

"Three Immortals Island has actually emerged!" Ancestor Ming Quan exclaimed, visibly shaken.

"Whether this is true or not remains to be confirmed, but all the Nascent Soul cultivators on the island have gone to the location of the Light Pillar. Since we're free as well, why not join the crowd and see what's happening?" Qiong Hai Island Master proposed.

"Of course, that sounds good," Ancestor Ming Quan agreed, nodding.

The two immediately soared into the sky, quickly arriving at the location of the Light Pillar.

A dense crowd of cultivators gathered here, at least four to five thousand in number. The cultivators from Fusang Island had already surrounded the Void Temple, allowing no one to approach. The leader was Xu Fu.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, what is the meaning of this? With Three Immortals Island emerging, does your Fusang Island intend to monopolize it?" a brawny man from the Water Ape Clan shouted sternly.

"Marshal Hou, fellow daoists, this silver light pillar is merely due to a problem with Fusang Island's Ancient Transmission Array that caused a dispersion of Spiritual Power. As for the appearance of Three Immortals Island, it's entirely fictional. You are all well-informed individuals. Even if Three Immortals Island were to truly emerge, it would definitely be in the Endless Deep Sea. How could the entrance possibly appear at Fusang Island? The characters in the sky were deliberately fabricated to cause discord. I implore you all to discern truth from falsehood and not be deceived," Xu Fu earnestly said with a bow.

His words made many hesitant, seemingly convinced.

"I have some insight into formation arrays. Since it's a problem with Fusang Island's Transmission Array, let me take a look. I might be able to offer some help," a voice rang out, belonging to Yan Xiang of Karma Fire Island.

Cui Yu stood beside him, having recovered but still looking somewhat pale with other cultivators from Karma Fire Island also present.

Karma Fire Island had already been eliminated, and as the person responsible, Yan Xiang was leading his disciples away when this unusual change occurred, prompting them all to fly over.

"The goodwill of Fellow Daoist Yan is noted and appreciated by Fusang Island, but the Transmission Array inside the Void Temple is an Ancient Formation, fundamentally different from modern arrays. I'm afraid Fellow Daoist Yan might not be able to assist," Xu Fu said, shaking his head.

"Since it's an Ancient Formation, I am even more eager to see it. Since this silver light pillar is unrelated to Three Immortals Island, allowing me to have a look should be harmless, right?" Yan Xiang said, his eyes sparkling.

Xu Fu's expression shifted subtly, then returned to calm, as he smiled, "Of course, other daoists might also want to observe. If so, let's select a few representatives to enter with me. However, which few will go, I ask fellow daoists to decide among yourselves."

Upon hearing this, nearby people began discussing amongst themselves.

"Fellow daoists, do not be deceived by Xu Fu. He's intentionally delaying. The cultivators of Fusang Island are inside shutting down the Transmission Array. The chance to enter Three Immortals Island is fleeting—rush in!" a volatile voice suddenly erupted, its source indiscernible.

At these words, Xu Fu's gaze shifted slightly, and the crowd outside stirred further.

A figure clothed in red shot out from the crowd, a middle-aged man with thin blood-colored lips, heading straight for the doors of the Void Temple.

"It's the Blood Yan Island Master; to think he would act so boldly, directly confronting Fusang Island!" whispers emerged from the crowd.

"How audacious! Who is this madman, arrest him!" Xu Fu thundered in anger.

Not far from his side, a middle-aged man with red hair from Fusang Island leapt into the air. With a single wave of his hand, dozens of blinding flames shot out, instantly forming a giant net of fire that appeared above the head of the Blood Yan Island Master and enveloped him with extraordinary swiftness.

However, two streaks of blood light shot from the back of the Blood Yan Island Master, condensing into two broad blood wings. They fluttered nine times in succession, instantly transforming into a streak of blood-colored lightning, flashing out from the range of the fiery net and disappearing into the grand gate of the Void Temple.

"The Blood Wing Escape Technique of Blood Yan Island, who would have thought that the Blood Yan Island Master had already mastered the Blood Wings Nine Flashes to such an extent!" an exclamation arose from the crowd.

The red-haired middle-aged man, in a rage, immediately pursued.

Xu Fu's expression changed, about to reprimand the man to return and stabilize their formation as that was of the utmost importance.

However, as the Blood Yan Island Master and the red-haired cultivator fled and chased, the extremely tense atmosphere surrounding them immediately exploded. Numerous Nascent Soul cultivators shot out, rushing toward the Void Temple.

Seeing this, Xu Fu and other Nascent Soul cultivators from Fusang Island were greatly alarmed and also flew into the Void Temple.

With Nascent Soul cultivators leading the charge, the rest of the cultivators followed suit, forming a torrent that surged forward, easily breaking through the defensive circle formed by hundreds of Fusang Island cultivators. The cultivators in a frenzied rush were the first to enter the Void Temple.

There were too many people at the entrance of the Void Temple, and it was too crowded to enter. Some impatient cultivators, due to pushing and shoving, broke out in conflicts and started arguing and cursing.

Sudden piercing screams erupted; a young cultivator stumbled out of the crowd, clutched at his neck, and fell down, blood spilling everywhere. He quickly breathed his last.

The nearby crowd instinctively stepped back a few steps, dead silent.

At that moment, several beams of light, origins unknown, flew into the crowd, causing blood to spray and screams to rise.

The crowd erupted into chaos, scattering in all directions. However, magic artifacts and treasures were rapidly brought out, whether for self-defense or to attack enemies. In an instant, the area near the Void Temple was ablaze with dazzling lights. Countless treasures appeared, and the flashing lights were so intense that they hurt the eyes.

Deadly lights shone in every direction, and the group of cultivators was in extreme panic.

Someone shouted loudly, and a magnificent treasure light was brought out.

This action seemed to ignite a powder keg, with countless magic treasures striking out all around, targeting everyone but themselves.

Screams of agony and curses filled the air, and the area around the Void Temple was a scene of blood and violence, with no one knowing the reason for the slaughter. But the urge to kill surged in everyone's heart, and they saw red, slashing at anyone they encountered.

The cultivators who arrived later were shocked to see the melee near the Void Temple and didn't know what had happened.

"This is a scheme by Fusang Island, using Three Immortals Island as bait to incite everyone to slaughter each other!"

"Fellows, Three Immortals Island has already been occupied by those Nascent Soul powers, we can no longer enter, but Fusang City itself hides countless treasures. Since the people of Fusang Island want us all to die here, let's not blame each other for being ruthless, let's break in and loot!"

"Break in and loot!"

A group of people clothed in black emerged from nowhere, wielding magical artifacts and charging toward the buildings near the Void Temple, killing anyone they saw.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of explosions suddenly occurred, and a cluster of nearby buildings burst into flames, igniting one house after another, and the fire spread rapidly.

The situation took a drastic turn for the worse as a large number of unknown cultivators appeared out of nowhere and stormed into various key areas of Fusang Island, killing and looting. In moments, the area was filled with the sounds of fighting, dying screams, and the laughter of those who seized treasures.

Seeing this scene, some bold Loose Cultivators couldn't suppress their greed, used spells to disguise their faces, and joined in the looting.

Loose Cultivators, already the lowest and most unrestrained group in the Cultivation World, could easily turn into red-eyed beasts when massive chaos broke out, tearing down the constraints of order.

Moreover, with Fusang Island's usually aloof attitude, many were envious, jealous, or even hateful. Having the opportunity to bring them down from their high pedestal was something many were eager to partake in!

"Kill!"

"Break in and loot!"

"Storm into Fusang Island, seize Spirit Stones, Magic Treasures, Red Mulberry Immortal Fruits!"

More and more Loose Cultivators turned into robbers, rushing toward various places in Crow Head District.

Soon, some medium and small faction cultivators also couldn't hold back. After disguising their appearances, they too joined the fray, and a greater chaos slowly brewed in Crow Head District, sweeping through everything.

Due to the appearance of Three Immortals Island, several Nascent Soul cultivators from Fusang Island had been dispatched, with Wan Tianren entering Three Immortals Island. Only a few remaining Nascent Soul cultivators, including Xu Fu, had just entered the Void Temple. At that moment, Fusang Island had no Nascent Soul cultivators in charge, only some Core Formation cultivators left.

Facing this sudden, immense chaos, these Core Formation cultivators could not form an effective defense. One by one, the heavily guarded key areas within Crow Head District were breached by the frenzy of cultivators, and everything inside was looted.
