Chapter 300 - 300: Immortal Palace
Fang Hong was now very glad that he was Cultivating the Ten Thousand Laws Origin Demon Art, as his magic power was dozens of times that of other cultivators at the same stage.
If he had used any other cultivation technique, he probably wouldn't even be able to activate the Swift Wind Wings for a moment, let alone use it to cast the void Divine Ability.
Putting away his thoughts, Fang Hong moved his foot, and his figure instantly vanished from his original spot, reappearing in the Medicine Valley.
His main purpose for coming here was to check on the growth of the immortal spirit flowers.
Several years had passed since he planted the immortal spirit flowers, and these immortal spirit flowers were growing exceptionally well, emitting a white glow all over their bodies.
Judging by the time and their current growth rate, in another year and a half, these ten immortal spirit flowers would fully mature, reaching ten thousand years of Dao cultivation.
Each immortal spirit flower with ten thousand years of cultivation could spray out a ball of Immortal Qi.
Once all ten immortal spirit flowers matured, he would be able to harvest ten balls of Immortal Qi at once, and then he could begin refining new Immortal Artifacts.
He currently possessed several treasures such as the years pearl, the demon soul banner, and the nirvana divine thunder sword. One day, he would refine all these treasures into Immortal Artifacts.
At this moment, Fang Hong noticed that Su Shan had sent him a message, saying that something major had happened.
"Something major?"
Fang Hong was puzzled and immediately cast a teleportation spell, instantly appearing in an elegant pavilion within the Azure Emperor Palace.
At this time, by the stone table in the pavilion, Su Shan and Azure Emperor were sitting on wooden chairs on one side, seemingly having waited there for a while.
"After a few years, Daoist Fang's strength has actually far surpassed mine."
Azure Emperor saw Fang Hong appear instantly and smiled gently, greeting him proactively.
Only a few years had passed, yet Fang Hong's aura had become much stronger; now she couldn't even discern Fang Hong's strength.
"Not at all, Fellow Daoist Qing is too kind."
Fang Hong responded politely, then walked to the empty seat on the other side of the stone table and sat down.
Fang Hong asked curiously, "Is there something major?"
"Just now, a disciple training in the West Sea sent back an urgent message, saying that an Immortal Abode suddenly emerged in the deep waters of the West Sea," Azure Emperor nodded and explained.
"Immortal Abode? Could it be an ancient ruin appearing?" Fang Hong was slightly surprised to hear these two words.
On the Azure Holy Continent, the appearance of an Immortal Abode ruin was an extremely significant event.
Each time it appeared, it would attract countless cultivators to compete for it, as the Immortal Abode likely contained lost cultivation techniques, precious spirit medicine, or powerful spiritual treasures.
"That's right, and according to the message sent back by that disciple, the name of this Immortal Abode is Misty Immortal Mansion," Azure Emperor slowly revealed the name of the Immortal Abode.
"Misty Immortal Mansion. It's actually it."
Fang Hong was far more astonished to hear this name than when he first heard the words Immortal Abode.
He had seen records about the Misty Immortal Mansion in ancient texts; it was the most powerful force on the Azure Holy Continent a million years ago, if not the only one.
Even the entire continent at that time was not called Azure Holy Continent but rather Misty Continent, showing how astonishing the influence of the Misty Immortal Mansion was back then.
Azure Emperor saw Fang Hong's strong reaction and smiled, saying, "It seems Daoist Fang is also well-versed in ancient texts and already knows the origin of the Misty Immortal Mansion."
She had originally worried about having to explain it at length.
Fang Hong slowly nodded. The Misty Immortal Mansion flourished for a time, with countless powerful cultivators within its gates. It was said to have produced several Immortal Old Ancestors, making it the undisputed ruler of the continent.
However, such a profound and powerful behemoth one day mysteriously disappeared.
Not only did all the cultivators within the abode vanish without a trace, but even the mountain gate disappeared into thin air, as if it had never existed on the continent.
Later generations of cultivators had various theories, with all sorts of speculations circulating.
Some said that the Misty Immortal Mansion offended a reclusive peerless expert, who destroyed the entire Immortal Abode overnight.
Others said that the Misty Immortal Mansion had committed some heinous, Heaven-defying act, and was ultimately struck down by a Heavenly tribulation, completely erasing its traces of existence.
In short, after so many years, the world still hasn't found conclusive evidence, and to this day, the true reason for the Misty Immortal Mansion's disappearance remains unknown.
Now, a Misty Immortal Mansion suddenly emerging from the depths of the West Sea might be a part of the original Misty Immortal Mansion left behind when it disappeared.
"The Misty Immortal Mansion was an ancient overlord. There might be precious treasures left inside. How about the three of us go explore it together?" Fang Hong suggested directly.
"Exactly, we called you here today for this very matter," Azure Emperor immediately nodded.
"Moreover, I've already received news that cultivators from all walks of life have gathered around the Immortal Abode."
"This time the Immortal Abode appears, it will definitely be very lively," Azure Emperor smiled.
"With my husband and master here, the three of us working together will surely seize an opportunity in the Immortal Abode." Su Shan's eyes were full of anticipation.
"Without further delay, let's depart now," Fang Hong immediately stood up.
Azure Emperor also stood up. With a flip of her palm, a spiritual light flew out from her body, transforming into an exquisite wooden boat the size of a palm.
The wooden boat was pale green all over, with intricate runes carved on it, and a faint spiritual light lingering around it. It was clearly no ordinary object.
"I have a Space Riding Boat here, which is a high-grade heavenly spiritual treasure. It is extremely fast and can even traverse the void."
"With it for travel, we should be able to reach the West Sea in about two or three days," Azure Emperor introduced, pointing at the wooden boat.
At this moment, Fang Hong smiled and said, "No need for such trouble, Fellow Daoist Qing, do you know of any famous locations in the West Sea? Or did the disciple who sent back the message also send back an image of the Misty Immortal Mansion?"
Azure Emperor was momentarily stunned, somewhat unclear about Fang Hong's meaning.
"That disciple sent back an image of the Misty Immortal Mansion, recorded in a jade slip."
Although she was puzzled, Azure Emperor did not hesitate. She took out another light green jade slip and infused her magic power into it.
In an instant, a light screen appeared out of thin air above the jade slip, displaying the image of the Misty Immortal Mansion in the sea.
A magnificent palace could be seen floating on the sea, surrounded by surging waves.
"This is the image that disciple sent back," Azure Emperor explained.
"Good, this image is enough," Fang Hong looked at the Immortal Abode in the light screen and nodded in satisfaction.
After speaking, Fang Hong began to carefully conceive the spatial passage leading to the Immortal Abode in his sea of consciousness, based on the appearance of the Immortal Abode in the light screen and the general direction of the West Sea.
In his sea of consciousness, countless spatial runes rapidly flowed, constantly combining and arranging, forming complex spatial trajectories.
