The craze surrounding the Immortal Mansion Ruins lasted for a full year, drawing an ever-increasing number of cultivators in pursuit of this mysterious structure. The extraordinary tales emanating from the ruins grew more astonishing with each passing day.
From the qi refining realm to Nascent Soul True Monarchs from the Outer Sea, cultivators flocked to the area, drawn by the rumors.
The cultivation world of the Great Wilderness Domain descended into chaos, a spectacle unprecedented in thousands of years.
"Gui Li, the sect master of the Ghost Sword Sect, is battling a Nascent Soul True Monarch from the Outer Sea! Their fight in the southern part of Giant Deer Prefecture is shaking the heavens and earth!"
"Not only that, but the True Monarch from the Outer Sea has allies. Gui Li is fighting multiple opponents at once, yet his combat prowess is extraordinary."
"Truly terrifying! To secure the Immortal Mansion Ruins, these powerhouses have gone completely mad."
"..."
The news that the Immortal Mansion Ruins had appeared in the southern part of Giant Deer Prefecture spread like wildfire throughout the entire Great Wilderness Domain.
Moreover, the ruins had finally come to rest, no longer shifting and moving erratically.
Cultivators from all directions, their hearts filled with longing, raced toward Giant Deer Prefecture at top speed.
Near a wilderness in southern Giant Deer Prefecture, Gui Li, his ghost sword slung across his back, stared coldly and without expression at the three Outer Sea cultivators who stood united in the air before him.
"As expected of the demonic path's leader in the Great Wilderness Domain. The three of us can't even take you down. Such combat prowess is truly admirable."
"Hmph, you're merely relying on that peculiar precious cauldron. Without it, you'd have been dead long ago."
An old Daoist Nun among the three narrowed her eyes and spoke in a sharp, thin voice, "That cauldron must be a forbidden artifact. With so many cracks covering it, and each use adding another, it can't last much longer."
"Why don't we take him down in one decisive strike?"
These three Nascent Soul cultivators from the Outer Sea were arrogant. Though all were only at the mid-Nascent Soul stage, their combined strength multiplied exponentially, allowing them to even contend with those in the late-stage.
Gui Li's expression darkened slightly. Supporting the forbidden artifact, the Four Symbols Heaven-Suppressing Cauldron, with one hand, he said coldly, "If you believe you can take me down in one go, why waste time with empty threats? Such empty boasts only invite ridicule."
As the leader of the demonic path, Gui Li's arrogance was naturally even more pronounced. Even facing three opponents simultaneously, he showed no fear.
Watching Gui Li's formidable display, the three Nascent Soul cultivators dared not act rashly, a flicker of apprehension crossing their eyes.
They had a premonition that if they were to fight to the death, they might win, but the cost would be devastating—so devastating that they could barely accept it.
Thus, the Daoist Nun at the head of the group shifted her sinister gaze to a fissure in the great earth.
Beneath that fissure, within the Earth Vein, the mysterious immortal mansion had indeed come to a halt!
The mansion, which had been the subject of heated discussion and captured the attention of countless cultivators over the past year, now lay before them.
"Enough. Our priority is to enter the mansion before it moves again."
No sooner had she spoken than the Earth Vein began to tremble, and waves of earth qi surged forth.
Boom! Boom!
Though they didn't know what had happened, they all knew that delay would only invite disaster. They couldn't afford to hesitate any longer.
Compared to this lingering tension, seizing the opportunity that lay before them was far more important.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The trio exchanged glances and charged into the rift in the great earth, their speed blinding.
Seeing this, Gui Li slowly put away the Four Symbols Heaven-Suppressing Cauldron and drew the massive ghost sword from his back with one hand.
He sneered and unleashed a dark purple slash of ghostly qi.
Swish!
In an instant, the rift collapsed, revealing more of what lay beneath. A corner of the Immortal Mansion Ruins was exposed, spiritual energy gushing forth like a spring.
"The renowned Three Immortals of the North Sea resort to such petty tricks? They clearly underestimate Gui Li."
The sword strike had destroyed several peculiar spirit plants along its path—traps left behind by the Three Immortals. Though their purpose remained unclear, Gui Li knew that any contact with them would bring nothing but trouble.
The Three Immortals of the North Sea had rushed into a side entrance of the Immortal Mansion Ruins, fully entering the peculiar structure.
Without delay, Gui Li turned toward another side entrance and charged in at breakneck speed.
As the group entered the immortal mansion, the cultivators who had been observing from nearby emerged one after another, surging toward the entrance to the Earth Vein like a mad tide.
"The immortal mansion is still here, it hasn't moved! Let's go in and see what's going on!"
"Those three Nascent Soul cultivators from the North Sea are truly formidable! Even Gui Li, the sect master of the Ghost Sword Sect, couldn't defeat them together."
"Hiss, the spiritual energy surging from within the immortal mansion is so pure! I feel like I'm about to ascend to the heavens!"
"Enough talk!"
A massive crowd of rogue cultivators swarmed into the underground immortal mansion. Though the structure didn't appear particularly large, it seemed like an endless abyss, swallowing cultivators without pause.
More and more cultivators arrived from all directions, their targets clear as they descended into the depths.
The Immortal Mansion Ruins had confirmed its location in the southern wilderness of Giant Deer Prefecture and remained there for an unusually long time. Compared to its previous fleeting appearances, this extended stay was truly remarkable.
In the Lingyun Sect, Li Qing naturally received this news immediately.
Zhang Da, who had rushed to the Great Wilderness Domain, sent the intelligence with lightning speed.
"The Immortal Mansion Ruins in Giant Deer Prefecture have actually stopped moving."
Li Qing pondered for a moment, his eyes filled with contemplation.
According to Zhang Da's intelligence, seven Nascent Soul cultivators had confirmedly entered the ruins. These included native cultivators from the Great Wilderness Domain and some from overseas.
The demon race had also been alerted. At least two Transformed Demon Kings had been sighted in Giant Deer Prefecture.
This was merely the visible situation. No one knew how many Nascent Soul cultivators might be hiding their identities, concealing their cultivation levels, and blending in with other rogue cultivators.
Despite this, Li Qing remained unmoved. He still had no intention of getting involved. Instead, he replied to Zhang Da, instructing him to continue monitoring the ruins and promptly relay any intelligence.
Beyond that, he gave no further instructions.
