Chapter 6: Hansen Forbidden Area
On a mountain far away, a young man about twenty-six years old was sitting with his eyes closed, drinking, and to the right was a black tiger lying prostrate.
Suddenly the young man opened his eyes; his expression was extremely fierce, and he roared loudly, causing all the animals on the mountain to panic.
Mia, did you kill my younger brother?
At this precise moment, two individuals rushed forward and reported:
Sir, the squad led by Andrew, you are all dead. Someone saw the Medicine Body carrying Mia running out in that direction. Fresh blood covered the medicine man's body; perhaps he had poisoned Young Master Andrew!
The young man regained his composure.
Isn't he a mortal? Is there any reason to kill Andrew and the others? Are you sure Mia didn't use magic talismans?
The other two respectfully replied:
Mia certainly hasn't used it!
Just a magic talisman can make so many people wary!
The young man smiled coldly.
Despite her father's power surpassing both mine and Jack's, he journeyed to Central Earth and vanished for fifteen years, shattering his own destiny. Even so, he left behind an incomparably strong magic talisman to protect his daughter's life; even my father did not dare to directlyit, ppose it and even carefully instructed her to use it. Quick, send more people to chase after her. Kill them! Absolutely do not let Nine Turns Heavenly Art fall into Jack's hands. We need to bring back that medicine, Boby. By refining his flesh and blood, he can help us break through the Chaos Origin Realm.
Not only does Henry want to capture Nathan, but so does Jack.
Jack possesses a slender physique, exudes an elegant appearance reminiscent of a scholar, and carries a paper fan in his hand. When he looked so weak and sick, no one in the Chu Yu Empire dared look down on him.
Amazing talent: at the age of twelve, he entered the Qi Condensation, a suppressed vein until he was seventeen years old, before bursting out into a sea of forty-nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine feet, shocking the world.
After he broke through the Chaos Origin Realm and began to rampage through the Chu Yu Empire, he had almost no opponents at the same level. Only a few demons can compare to Mia, the two Holy Land saints, or the Power family.
The Doctrine cultivator is the Wilson family's genuine Nisin. According to legend, the Wilson family was not originally from Chu Yu Empire but came from Western Heaven, where blood flows through the ancient Wu clan.
In ancient times, the witch clan wielded immense power; their ancient demonic magic shook the world, manifesting in more than a dozen successive generations of Great Emperors. Their terrifying corpse training techniques allowed them to sweep across the human world without any opponents. However, in ancient times, a mutated set of exams suddenly appeared among the corpses. This corpse not only developed spiritual wisdom but also nurtured it all the way to the Great Emperor. During this time, it killed the Witch Master and refined the entire Wu clan into the Win clan. Of course, a small portion of the Wu clan still exists, having managed to escape to another continent. The Wilson family has a history.
Have you yet to utilize that talisman?
Dear Sir, Medicine Body defeated Andrew and his group. Based on the battle traces, we estimate that this individual possesses a mid-stage Qi Condensation cultivation level, capable of activating at least six thousand meters of Qi Condensation; otherwise, their persistence would be impossible!
A subordinate respectfully answered Andrew.
- Interesting!
Andrew just smiled and said nothing more.
Master, this subordinate has a question!
The other guy couldn't suppress his curiosity.
Henry left behind that magic talisman fifteen years ago. Wouldn't it be prudent to take the old man's half-step reincarnation cultivation level?
Jack shook his head and sighed.
"Mia's father was an unparalleled prodigy of his generation, his strength unimaginable." If he hadn't traveled the world searching for miraculous elixirs to help Mia overcome the life-and-death tribulations of Nine Turns Heavenly Art, he would have already become the foremost expert of the Chu Yu Empire."
Henry! This name was legendary in the previous generation.
In the past thousand years of the Chu Yu Empire, countless heroes and mighty figures have emerged, but if anyone left the most profound impression, it was undoubtedly Henry Wilson.
He defeated the Saint Master, suppressed "One Holy Land, Three Sects, Four Great Clans," and is even rumored to have killed powerful figures from the mysterious Eastern Sea.
Henry returned from an ancient forbidden land with Nine Turns Heavenly Art, which he gave to Mia to practice.
"Nine Turns Heavenly Art exponentially boosts one's power with each successful reversal, yet it poses significant risks." Nine turns, nine life-and-death tribulations. Once you start practicing it, you can never stop. Even if you gather all the sacred medicines in the world, can they really help someone defy the heavens and become immortal?"
Jack sighed.
Everyone has desires, but you must know which ones to pursue.
For Mia’s first reversal, she used the Rebirth Flower, which Henry had paid a hefty price to obtain from the Thunder Saint Land. For the second reversal, Henry went to the Eastern Sea and brought back the Seven-Colored Immortal Pill, a legendary elixir, for her to consume.
Now, for the third reversal, she needed the longevity body. In the Ascension realm, Henry's great-grandfather had to personally set up a formation to help Mia absorb the Eternal Life Body's life force for a year in order to survive the calamity.
What about the fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth reversals? Where could they find such miraculous elixirs?
Jack would rather die than get involved in this quagmire.
"Continue sending people to force her to use the divine talisman! If successful, please find a way for me to obtain Nine Turns Heavenly Art. Even if I can’t practice it, I can still use it to entrap a few people."
At night, the sky was quiet and still, with only a few stars glimmering down on the human world as if guiding lost souls.
Nathan sits cross-legged while practicing. Today, he has expanded the sea of suffering to nine hundred and ninety-nine feet, yet he still faces the final step, unable to overcome it.
According to Mia, the number nine was always the most difficult column to overcome. Only time can slowly destroy the large wall there.
I continue to experience anxiety; I had anticipated that I would develop into a robust individual within a day.
Nathan sighed.
The journey is extensive; at times, tens of thousands of years can pass in an instant. You can't achieve the speed of desire; what you can accomplish is truly astounding!
Mia looked up at the jet-black sky, his eyes sparkling as if he hadn't confided yet.
Do you remember Senior Henry?
On the way to find refuge, the relationship between the two sides began to improve. Mia provided a thorough explanation of the Wilson family's current situation. When talking about her father, she had very special feelings—both extremely proud and remorseful.
If I hadn't secretly practiced Nine Turns Heavenly Art, my father wouldn't have risked his life to find the magic medicine of the fairy pill.
Mia said it sadly. In any case, she is just a girl, and although she is normally arrogant and cold, there will also be times of weakness.
Nathan paused and patted her shoulder.
What do you want to do? Don't think that I told you these things because I was close to you!
Mia coldly pushed his hand away.
Nathan looked helpless.
I just want to comfort you... Actually, I really admire you for having such a wonderful father. I too aspire to have a father and a mother to cherish, but sadly, I will never have them!
No one is born with the right to choose their own background.
Being an orphan since childhood, he begged on market streets. At the age of five, he knew how to steal. He once pilfered a dumpling and suffered severe beatings. But then a woman came forward to pay him; she brought a child about his age, who also held a dumpling in her hand.
Every time he remembered that image, he couldn't control his desire to have a father, a mother, and someone to protect him.
You've shed tears!
Mia suddenly spoke.
- Bullshit!
Nathan laughed and stood up, clasping his hands behind his back, and looking up at the lonely night sky.
Looking at his stubborn appearance, Mia couldn't help but smile. She lowered her voice:
Actually, we can become friends.
Then give it to me, Nine Turns Heavenly Art!
Nathan immediately displayed a shameless face, causing all of Mia's just-arising feelings to fade away.
She remained silent for a considerable amount of time before finally speaking.
There are nine more months left; you need to quickly practice to reach the peak of the Qi condensation. If you don't practice, the formation above will drain your life.
- What?
Nathan was so shocked. Currently, even though Mia is constantly sucked out of life, he feels it is not worth much, and even the loss of life is quickly compensated.
Mia was silent.
We cannot resolve this ancient dharma formation; it will automatically disappear when our destiny stabilizes.
Through previous conversations, Nathan understood that breaking through the Qi condensation within a year was possible. But such an early breakthrough affirms that the Qi Condensation cannot expand too much and will only be a common monk. He cannot accept this.
Or, if you find the magic pill that helps me, you can neutralize everything.
Are you kidding me? Your father possesses such incredible magical powers that he can't even accomplish this. Entering mine will allow you to discover your own path to death.
At this moment, a shocking explosion suddenly appeared in the north. A column of purple light, several thousand feet wide, shot straight into the sky. The cold aura exploded like the depths of hell, causing everyone to feel cold.
Hansen forbidden area land phenomena from happening!
Mia said calmly:
Every 10,000 years, Hansen forbidden area land will truly open once, allowing all the monks under Celestial Being Scene to come in to search for inheritance. According to legend, Hansen forbidden area has appeared a total of one hundred and forty-seven times, but no one has succeeded.
Hmm, I don't care. Right now, I'm just a small early-period monk on the Qi Condensation. Did I go there to die?
Nathan shook his head and wiggled his fingers. He absolutely does not feel the uncertainty.
You really don't go?
No, beat me to death; don't go!
Mia's eyes suddenly emitted a strange light.
Rumors circulate about a dew flower that, when used, can refine into a pair of divine eye reincarnations with unmatched power.
Our eyes work; there is no need to change other pairs...
Nathan dismissed it.
Mia persisted.
I want you to go because if you have the opportunity to find the legendary Dead Stone and heal my injury, you will quickly regain your freedom.
This time, Nathan was really confused. He didn't want Mia to drain his life force, nor did he desire to breach the Qi condensation prematurely.
- Okay! However, you must teach me Nine Turns Heavenly Art; otherwise, there will be countless heroes. What can I use to protect myself?
Do you really want to learn? Despite its widespread use, few people have dared to practice this technique due to its poisonous nature.
However, Mia suddenly recalled that Nathan possessed a remarkably long lifespan. Perhaps he can overcome life and death easily without the need for the magical medicine of the fairy pill. If her Eternal Life Body possesses strength, it will undoubtedly aid her in overcoming future births and deaths. However, this man's nature is extravagant; he has no fear of heaven or earth; he must find a way to ensnare him and rely on him.
Of course, I want to try it out!
Nathan silently calculated that he would try practicing for a bit; if it wasn't okay, he would stop immediately. You are completely unaware that Nine Turns Heavenly Art is a path with no way back; once you walk, you will never be able to stop. He considers himself smart, and he is finally about to fall into the biggest trap of his life.
