The Mortal's Path to Immortality

Chapter 445

The battle at Hanyue Palace ended.

The numbers above the barrier jumped continuously and dropped to 302 in one breath.

Another 25 cultivators were eliminated.

In addition to Hanyue Palace, the Barbarians also eliminated a team of human forces.

Now, three forces have eliminated a team.

Cao Rui expanded his consciousness and saw that in another corner of the venue, the Star Clan was also besieging a team.

As for the teams of other forces, Cao Rui could not tell which force they belonged to because they had no obvious characteristics.

Hanyue Palace was full of female cultivators, while the Barbarians and the Star Clan had unique external characteristics, so Cao Rui could distinguish the three forces.

"There is a team of cultivators in the northeast corner who are being chased and killed by the Star Clan and fleeing in panic. Are they from Ice Bird City?" Cao Rui suddenly asked.

As he spoke, his consciousness locked onto the embarrassed team of cultivators, especially their uniform Taoist robes embroidered with the same ice bird pattern, which attracted his attention.

The cultivators around heard what Cao Rui said, and extended their consciousness in the direction he indicated.

Not long after, Cao Rui got a definite answer.

Ye Li nodded slightly and said slowly: "Yes, they are indeed cultivators from Bingniao City. The pattern on their robes is the emblem of Bingniao City."

After hearing this, Cao Rui frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.

After a while, he slowly stood up and said with determination: "Everyone, please wait here for a while. I need to deal with some personal affairs. I will be back soon."

Niu Youdao nodded without hesitation and said: "It's okay, Brother Cao, just go ahead. I'm here and I will protect everyone."

Cao Rui nodded slightly to Niu Youdao.

Then, he opened his mouth slightly and summoned the magic treasure he carried with him - the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword.

In an instant, a dazzling sword light shot straight into the sky. Cao Rui flashed and stepped steadily on the sword. He drove the spiritual treasure like a meteor and rushed towards the direction of the Ice Bird City team, leaving only a brilliant light and shadow that gradually dissipated in the air.

The Ice Bird City team was in an extremely dangerous situation at the moment, and the situation was precarious!

The Star Clan showed the powerful strength of the star race outside the sky. They not only had an indestructible and tyrannical body, but also mastered the mysterious and terrifying starlight magic.

The speed of starlight escape was extremely fast.

In the face of such a fierce attack from the Star Clan, the members of the Ice Bird City team retreated step by step, and three of them were unfortunately eliminated.

Although the remaining seven members tried their best to escape, the ten masters of the Star Clan followed them closely and chased them.

Moreover, these people from the Star Clan also used the starlight magic to launch surprise attacks from time to time, making the monks of the Ice Bird City unable to defend themselves.

As time went by, this continuous attack and consumption made the situation of the Ice Bird City team more and more difficult, and the next person to be eliminated could appear at any time.

The magical powers that the monks of Ice Bird City mainly practiced all originated from the Ice Bird.

This Ice Bird is an ancient sacred beast in the Frost Heaven Realm, with the potential to ascend to the fairyland and become a fairy beast.

Unfortunately, this sacred beast has long been extinct in the world. Due to the loss of the support of its original power, the main practice of Ice Bird City has also lost some of its original power.

Because of this, the once glorious Ice Bird City gradually declined.

At this moment, facing the relentless pursuit of the powerful enemies of the Star Clan, the monks of Ice Bird City have already summoned the phantom of the Ice Bird with magical powers to possess themselves.

With the help of this magical power, their flying speed has become extremely fast, like lightning across the sky.

Every time they fly by, crystal clear ice crystals will quickly condense in the air behind them, forming a beautiful and cold scene.

Unfortunately, although the phantom of the Ice Bird looked majestic, it still lacked a sense of reality.

In comparison, the Starlight Escape Technique that the Star Clan monks were good at was also extremely fast, even slightly faster than the imperfect magical powers of the Ice Bird City monks.

So no matter how hard the Ice Bird City monks tried to escape, they could not completely get rid of the Star Clan's pursuit. If they continued, it would only be a matter of time before the whole team was destroyed.

Soon, Cao Rui appeared in front of the seven Ice Bird City monks.

"Hmm? That person seems to be the monk who has mastered the terrifying divine consciousness and magical powers in this session of the North Sea Holy Land!" Xuanxu, the monk who led the Ice Bird City team, recognized Cao Rui's identity.

The North Sea Holy Land and Kunpeng Monster Land were the first forces to take action, and their fighting process was naturally seen by all the monks.

Although the North Sea Holy Land did not have a unified main practice method, and the disciples of the academy had their own unique practices, Cao Rui's divine consciousness and magical powers were still extremely rare.

Therefore, Cao Rui had already left a deep impression in the minds of all the contestants in this battle and cultivation event.

Naturally, this also includes the cultivators from Xuanxu and Bingniao City.

"Why is this beast blocking the way?"

"Is he going to attack us with the Star Clan?" Xuanxu was quite surprised, and he couldn't figure out Cao Rui's true intentions.

Cao Rui's consciousness also locked on Xuanxu, who seemed to be the leader.

The cultivators from Bingniao City were about to be eliminated.

If they were eliminated this time, they would have to go to Bingniao City in person to find the cultivators from Bingniao City next time.

A long journey on the ice field.

That would be very troublesome.

Only when the distance between the North Sea Holy Land and the Kunpeng Demon Land is not far, will a caravan be formed for trade.

Therefore, Cao Rui chose to step forward at this time to inquire about Tianjizi.

"Daoyou, I wonder if you have ever heard of a method called Tianji Puppetry?" Cao Rui performed the art of telepathy without hesitation, and the fluctuations of his spiritual consciousness quietly entered Xuanxu's mind like a breeze.

Xuanxu's heart was shocked, but he soon regained his composure. He silently accepted the telepathy from Cao Rui.

When he heard the name "Tianji Puppetry", he was stunned for a moment, and then he breathed a sigh of relief involuntarily.

Although it was a bit strange, from Cao Rui's inquiry, it can at least be concluded that he did not seem to be in collusion with the mysterious star clan behind him.

Speaking of Tianji Puppetry, Xuanxu knew a little bit.

As far as he knows, this is actually a side skill passed down by a cultivator who successfully ascended to heaven in Bingniao City.

Although it is regarded as a side skill, it is undeniable that it can still play a role for many low-level cultivators with shallow cultivation.

So Xuanxu did not dare to neglect it and quickly responded with his spiritual sense in the same way: "Well, I have heard of it. It is said that this is a unique method passed down by an ascended cultivator in our Bingniao City."

Hearing this, Cao Rui couldn't help but feel happy.

It seems that Tianjizi has successfully ascended to the Frost Heaven Realm!

Such a coincidence is simply unbelievable. Perhaps the two of them are destined to have a deep fate.

Then, Cao Rui could not suppress his inner anxiety and continued to ask: "So is this ascender named Tianjizi? And, is he still in Bingniao City now?"

Facing Cao Rui's rapid-fire questioning, Xuanxu showed a helpless bitter smile on his face.

He shook his head gently and said slowly: "To be honest, this ascender seems to be named Tianjizi. But as to whether he is still staying in Bingniao City now, I really can't give a definite answer, fellow Taoist. Now that I am in such a dangerous place, do you think I should pay attention to the difficult situation we are in now?"

Xuanxu's voice just fell.

With a "hum" sound, a surging, dazzling starlight shot out, cutting through the void at an astonishing speed, and whistled towards the Ice Bird City monk who was running the slowest with unparalleled power.

The face of the Ice Bird City monk changed drastically, and he immediately used his body protection magic to try to resist this terrifying blow.

However, the starlight was too powerful, and it instantly defeated his body protection magic and hit his body heavily.

With a scream, the Ice Bird City monk fell from the sky like a kite with a broken string.

At this time, several people from the Star Clan had already been waiting below. They quickly rushed forward and mercilessly destroyed the number plate on the monk's body.

According to the rules, once the number plate is destroyed, the monk is eliminated and loses the qualification to continue to participate in the battle.

So, under the watchful eyes of everyone,

Almost at the same time, another cultivator from the Netherworld appeared quickly.

They walked to the eliminated cultivator expressionlessly and took him away from the venue without saying a word, as if they were already accustomed to such scenes.

Seeing this scene, Cao Rui, who was floating in the distance, could not help but frown slightly.

He thought for a while, and he still had to find a way to contact Tianjizi. His consciousness transmitted the message: "The Star Clan is powerful, and I can't protect all of you, so please designate one person. I will do my best to keep this person and keep his place as a combat cultivator."

Hearing Cao Rui's words, Xuanxu transmitted the message without hesitation: "In this case, please protect me, brother! As for finding Tianjizi, I will definitely do my best and will never let you down!"

Cao Rui looked at Xuanxu deeply.

Finally, Cao Rui nodded.

In a flash, Cao Rui's figure flashed and turned into a stream of light and rushed into the air.

When he flew to the right distance from the ten members of the Star Clan, he suddenly used [Divine Capture].

In an instant, an invisible divine power suddenly burst out, like a huge net covering the ten members of the Star Clan.

A terrifying black hole appeared in the consciousness of the ten members of the Star Clan, as if it was swallowing their consciousness.

Affected by this magical power, the ten members of the Star Clan struggled, and their movements instantly became slow, as if time had frozen at this moment.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Cao Rui once again urged the flying sword under his feet and flew over.

He stretched out his hand and grabbed, accurately pulling Xuanxu onto the flying sword.

Then, Cao Rui drove the flying sword into the air, flew rapidly towards the distance, and disappeared at the end of the sky in the blink of an eye...

The other five Ice Bird City monks were confused and felt that this guy was a friendly army? But they quickly reacted and took the opportunity to flee.

However, the Star Clan monks were not simple either. They woke up one after another in just two or three moments.

The leader of his team looked at the direction where Cao Rui left with lingering fear.

Before, they were just onlookers, but now they experienced it in person and experienced the horror of the spiritual power of this human cultivator.

If that guy had ulterior motives, maybe one or two of them would have been eliminated.

However, at this time, that guy only took one person away, and he should not have the idea of ​​​​conflicting with the Star Clan team at this stage.

There are 30 places for the final number of the Battle Cultivation Festival. He really doesn't want to be an enemy of Cao Rui, a human cultivator with such terrifying combat power.

"Why only take one person away?"

He didn't understand Cao Rui's intention.

If he didn't understand, he didn't intend to let go of the remaining five Ice Bird City monks. He divided them into groups of two and continued to chase and kill them.

Not long after, the five Ice City monks were also eliminated one after another.

On the other side, Cao Rui brought Xuanxu to the temporary base.

The eyes of the cultivators from Kunpeng Demon Land and Beihai Holy Land fell on him, which made Xuanxu feel a little stressed.

He coughed dryly, looked at Cao Rui and bowed: "Thank you for saving me, brother. I will tell you about Tianjizi now."

Xuanxu told the story slowly. It turned out that Tianjizi ascended near Bingniao City thousands of years ago.

After ascending, he quickly squeezed into Feiniao City and became a cultivator of Feiniao City.

At the beginning, he relied on teaching Tianji puppetry to earn extra Yuanshi for cultivation.

But he soon found that the puppetry he was proud of had become a side door in the spirit world, just like alchemy and refining.

Teaching Tianji puppetry and even selling puppets can't make a few Yuanshi.

Unless the puppetry is upgraded to the level of being able to refine the spirit and the virtual level.

"Tianjizi is a rare ascender, so I know something about him."

"And his cultivation speed is indeed very fast. After he was promoted to Lianxu, he left Bingniao City and started traveling. It is said that he was trying to improve his puppetry."

"At present, I don't know if he is still in Bingniao City."

"After returning to Bingniao City, if there is any news about him, I will contact you as soon as possible. This is a communication device. I hope you will accept it." Xuanxu took out a bell and handed it to him, saying.
