Chapter 230 - Devilish Abode II

As others were fighting with all of their strength to move rapidly on the ground towards the glistening Medicinal Herbs and Fruits all around, the group from Time Immemorial Sect continued to move forward unhindered as they collected the Medicinal Herbs around them while continuing further into the Treasure Abode.

Noah felt the changes around him as he continued to move with ease, surprised initially at the heavy pressure that smashed him into the ground, but his strong body that was strengthened and even held the title of a Golden Sea Body from the modification in the Lost World regained its movements soon after.

He had to use energy to resist the pressure after that, finding that even though a significant amount of energy was required to move or fly, it wasn’t something that was an issue to him. He tested it by lifting off the ground briefly, finding the ease of it even with the increased energy expenditure before he came down again and put on a show as he panted with large breaths.

"Don’t tire yourself out early Elder Dan, we’ll depend on you to get the most important treasures of this Abode!"

The Legacy Disciples following behind him called out as they continued to move further in, making the ’Elder Dan’ in front of them give a nod as he bore the face of responsibility for his sect members.

Noah hid his calm smile as he collected more and more of the resplendent Medicinal Herbs while their group continued advancing, taking the lead amongst many of those entering the Treasure Abode of the Devilish Time Unveiler.

The area in front of them was gradually becoming elevated; it formed into a huge mountain that only increased in size the closer they came. Hazy clouds surrounded the top of the mountain as one could see many holes and snaking paths that led inside the mountain as they neared.

Their eyes glistened with greed as this new environment showed, using their energies to move even faster as they wanted to penetrate into tho large mountain and search for the tremendous treasures within!

The area within the Treasure Abode seemed to be constantly changing, with the burrows leading into the glistening mountain ahead of them appearing and disappearing every few seconds. This showed that there were many paths for them to take, and nobody knew where they would arrive after they entered through the appearing and disappearing holes on the mountain.

Grand Elder Amos thought briefly as they continued to move forward, his strong voice ringing out after.

"Little Dan, take a few other Elders and Legacy disciples with you while I go with the other half, we can cover more ground this way even though the level of danger increases!"

His voice was firm, but nobody denied it as they understood this was the best way to increase their chances to get the actually important treasures.

"Yes, Grand Elder. I’ll try my best to make sure no harm befalls our sect members!"

Noah gave back a determined reply as a few of the Legacy Disciples and Elders grouped around him. Determined gazes covered all of their faces as they began to move, with only a single last command being given from the Grand Elder.

"Don’t die!"

The sect members of Time Immemorial Sect split up left and right as they eyed the many appearing and disappearing paths into the mountain. Before they were completely separated from each other, Noah heard one last message from the Grand Elder that only he could hear.

"If you ever come across a regal purple dagger inlaid with streaks of gold, make it your ultimate goal to obtain it, as that is the most important treasure in this tomb!"

Noah’s eyes flashed as he heard this message and nodded his head towards the disappearing figures of the Grand Elder and others, his heart beating faster as the dagger that was just described was his own target for the venture, the other part of the treasure that he collected when he stepped foot into the World of Cultivation, the treasure that was still charging in the Time Space of his Spiritual Land.

"Stay close!"

He voiced out to the members of Time Immemorial Sect following him as they entered one of the burrows on the mountain, and their figures were quickly teleported elsewhere.

The moment they passed through the darkness of the pathway, they found themselves in a completely new area that was filled with stifling heat. They were standing in an isolated small area that was surrounded by fuming lava all around them, with footholds placed at a distance one could only reach by jumping.

The situation made the group from Time Immemorial Sect turn grim as they looked ahead to where the small elevated footholds led towards. At the highest point of the cavern they were in floated a profoundly glowing purple book that read with the shining words: Auraless Nine Swords Style.

The eyes of the cultivators opened in shock, as even Noah stared with widened eyes at the appearance of this technique in the first area of the mountain they arrived in.

"T-this is the Ultimate Technique that was lost hundreds of years ago, the one that the Devilish Time Unveiler used to kill his enemies before they could even react, the Auraless Nine Swords Style!"

One Legacy Disciple couldn’t help but scream as they stared at the enticingly floating book, but they couldn’t help but have their moods turn sour the moment they saw the momentous tasks ahead of them. The area around them was filled with blistering hot lava that was not normal in any way, showing them that they would not be able to protect themselves for long with their energy before they were burned to a crisp if they fell down into it.

A particular Elder that held a long sword on his back looked at this matchless technique with reverence as his face hardened and he looked at the next foothold that made a path towards the glowing treasure in the distance. He steeled his heart as he wrapped himself up in his tremendous energy and jumped!

"Elder Broadsword!"

Shocked yells came out as the Elder went for the treasure without hesitation. His body glided through the air as he used more and more energy to keep himself afloat with the tremendous gravitational pull still trying to smash him into the ground as he barely made it to the next foothold by reaching out with his hands.

He was panting as he hoisted himself up and looked towards the bubbling ground in fear before turning back to Noah and the others.

"My life has only been with the sword, with this technique in my sight, I have to try my best to get close in order to become an Ultimate Swordsman! Don’t worry, I won’t lose my life so easily!"

Elder Broadsword gave a confident smile to his worried sect members as he breathed out and recovered some energy before he looked forward to the next foothold that was a further distance away than the first one, and even higher.

The Legacy Disciples and other Elders with Noah watched in suspense as Elder Broadsword readied himself for the next foothold leading towards the Ultimate Sword Technique, and then he jumped.

"OOOH!"

His energy burst through the air as he resisted the gravitational pull and flew forward to the next foothold. His face held an ecstatic smile as he neared, finding himself much closer to the glistening floating book that was only another two footholds away. His hand reached out once more to clutch onto the foothold as his body fought to stay afloat, but he found his fingers only hitting air!

Surprise and shock erupted in him as he imperceptibly noticed the foothold he was about to grab onto...had actually moved forward enough to slip by his fingers!

None of the other cultivators from the Time Immemorial Sect were able to see this as they were watching from a distance, and all they were able to see was Elder Broadsword about to reach the next foothold, but he slipped right before he could hang on, and his figure began tumbling down towards the bubbling ground that pulsed with gaseous heat!

"Elder Broadsword!"

"Elder!"

Shocked screams rang out as the Legacy Disciples and remaining Elders watched in shock.

PLOP!

The figure of Elder Broadsword smashed into the flowing lava with tremendous force as a shout rang out from beneath, the elder obviously fighting for his life.

They watched in horror as they saw his body actually rise from the bubbling lava as it became surrounded by hazy violet colored energy, but only his head was able to pierce through the lava before the hazy energy became thinner until it was gone. His energy reserves were empty!

"AAHH!"

The moment he couldn’t protect himself from the descending gravitational pressure and the blazing hot lava surrounding him, his body began to redden and crack as it began to be destroyed at a high speed. The head that was able to come out briefly from beneath sunk back down even faster as rolls of flowing lava shot into every orifice of the powerful Transcendental Realm Elder that could no longer protect himself.

The Elders and Legacy Disciples from Time Immemorial Sect watched on in shock as the first casualty of the Treasure Abode of the Devilish Time Unveiler occurred in front of them!
