Sovereign To Immortality Chapter 54 - The Dark Path

Yang Junshan had already been in the Tuo Wu Shan for two days, and he had already been very careful during this period. However, when he tried to cross a canyon, he encountered a barrier formed by the miasma that rose from the canyon. After this miasma rose from the canyon, it quickly took advantage of the mountain wind to spread towards the forest that Yang Junshan was in.

Yang Junshan started to flee, but the miasma started to envelop him from all directions. Seeing that he could not escape anymore, he could only circulate the Wutu Spiritual Art at full power, trying to use the spiritual energy in his body to resist the miasma that was invading his body. At the same time, he tried to keep his breath as much as possible to reduce the rate of breathing.

Fortunately, as the large scale spread, the miasma also gradually thinned out. Thinking about it, the miasma poison should also be weakened, as long as they escaped from the area covered in the miasma, they could deal with it.

However, the moment Yang Junshan breathed the first mouthful of miasma into his body, a sweet smell entered his brain, and he immediately felt dizzy. Yang Junshan was shocked, he did not expect that the poison of the miasma was this strong, and just as he was about to circulate Wutu Spiritual Art at full strength, he felt his heart fiercely throbbing twice, as if his face was filled with blood.

However, the moment that the feeling rose from within his body, the feeling of dizziness due to the miasma was instantly suppressed. Yang Junshan felt his mind shake, he was not afraid of the effects of the miasma at all?

But before Yang Junshan could break free from the joy of being immune to miasma, Yang Junshan who had accidentally inhaled a breath of miasma suddenly felt the miasma that was suppressed previously start to move again. Surprised, Yang Junshan took the opportunity to leave the range of the miasma while his mind was still clear.

He took two deep breaths, the boredom from absorbing the miasma in his chest was slowly dissipating, at this time, Yang Junshan had the mind to think about how he was actually not afraid of the miasma.

In the process of escaping, Yang Junshan had clearly seen it. Not only him, many of the wild beasts also escaped when they saw the miasma engulfing them, and one of the wild rabbit had accidentally ran into a vine and bound its four limbs. After the miasma pa.s.sed through, the wild rabbit quickly began to twitch, and then it fell on the ground and stopped moving.

Since the miasma was poisonous enough to pose a fatal threat to humans, then the reason why Yang Junshan was able to repel it was all because of himself.

Thinking about it, Yang Junshan felt that it was simply because of three reasons. The first was that Yang Junshan's [Wutu Spiritual Art] cultivation technique had an extremely strong poison effect, but Yang Junshan thought that it was impossible. The second was that Yang Junshan's current tyrannical body, or should I say, the Mountain Monarch Map, had allowed his body to become strong enough to defend against the miasma.

In Yang Junshan's previous life, he had heard that after opening the top-grade immortal spiritual cavities, it was possible to have a special talent like Xu Jing, or it could be used to cultivate some strange techniques similar to the one used by Immortal cavities. However, these were all rumors, and Yang Junshan was not able to verify their authenticity.

However, the reason why he was able to open his Concealment Meridian with his top-grade Immortal Essence was not because he did not have hopes that he would be able to use a special Inherent Skill. It waity that other than his Immortal Essence being expanded to become much more powerful, Yang Junshan did not feel that he had produced any other special Inherent Skill.

However, this time, he was able to leave the area covered by the miasma. Yang Junshan's originally hopeless innate technique was now filled with hope once again. Could it be that the top grade immortal spiritual cavities would give him a technique that could cure all the poisons?

Thinking about it, Yang Junshan saw that the miasma behind him had stopped expanding, so he bravely walked back to the edge of the miasma. Very quickly, that feeling of dizziness came again, but it was much weaker than before, it was only at the edge.

Very quickly, "Dong Dong", his heart jumped twice in his chest, causing Yang Junshan himself to panic a little. The earlier flushed face and hot ears appeared on his face once again, and that dizzying feeling was immediately suppressed.

Yang Junshan hurriedly took two steps back and shook his head, but he thought back to what happened earlier quickly, and thought to himself: It does not seem that the poison is immune to it, but rather that the poison has a strong resistance to it that enters my body, and the miasma that invades my body has not been dispelled, but is temporarily suppressed by the powerful vitality in Yang Junshan's body. I still need to drive the spirit energy in my body to dispel it one by one.

Both of them had the ability to strengthen the Qi and blood of cultivators. From the looks of it, it was not necessarily because of some special Inherent Skill that had been born in the hidden part of the body, which made Yang Junshan a little disappointed.

After finding a secluded place, and finding no trace of ferocious beasts in the vicinity, Yang Junshan quickly started to circulate his art to recover the spirit energy consumed in his body. At the same time, he also eliminated the miasma poison that was still suppressed by his blood and energy.

In a blink of an eye, half a day had pa.s.sed, and the sounds of people shouting could be heard, at the same time, the sound of people rolling on the road was approaching as well, waking Yang Junshan up from his cultivation.

Where did this wild mountain range come from?

This doubt had just risen in Yang Junshan's heart, but he seemed to have thought of something immediately. He hurriedly looked around and mumbled to himself, "Could it be that this is the Tuo Wu Shan's secret pa.s.sage?

The Yuxian and the Zhang County were controlled by different forces, and although there were trade routes that connected with each other, they were both taxed heavily by the forces that controlled the two counties. Thus, there were many people who opened up secret pa.s.sages in dangerous places, which were rarely seen, in order to avoid the heavy tax collection barriers set up by the big powers on the trading path. And the Tuo Wu Shan's secret pathway was to communicate with the Yuxian and the Zhang County through smuggling.

In his previous life, Yang Junshan had pa.s.sed through this secret pa.s.sage several times to go to Zhang County and Yuxian, so he was very familiar with this secret pa.s.sage. It was just that this time, he had been chased by the miasma until he was at a loss for what to do.

Following the sound, he ran through the forest. After a while, Yang Junshan crouched down and looked down from behind a bush, and saw a ten foot wide dirt road at the bottom of a cliff, it did not seem to have been open for long. The road was full of potholes, and it was very hard to walk on it, thus, the three carriages that were coming at him walked very slowly.

When they got closer, Yang Junshan could see that the three carriages were originally three grain carts. Each of the grain carts were led by mature silly cattle beasts, and although the speed of the silly cattle beasts and the packhorses were much slower, they had great stamina and walked steadily, which made them the most suitable for this kind of road that was just like a newly opened secret pa.s.sage.

These three food carts were different from the ones that Yang Junshan had seen in the w.a.n.gshan Town. The Spirit Sealing Boxes of these three food carts were much larger than the ones he had seen in the w.a.n.gshan Town.

According to Yang Junshan's experience, the Spirit Sealing Boxes of each of the three food carts could fit a spiritual valley of 50 stones, and the three carts would hold at least 150 stones.

There werotal of five people in these three food carts, they all looked like normal food merchants, but of course, all of them had cultivation, how could ordinary people walk on them?

When Yang Junshan saw the three grain carts, the first thing that came to mind was that the w.a.n.gshan Town had purchased all three of the spiritual valley's men, and looking at the five of them, their auras were obviously not from Martial Realm Cultivator, which allowed Yang Junshan to calm down. As long as they were not in martial arts realm, without his Spiritual Sense, he would not be able to detect the Yang Junshan hiding on the cliff.

The five of them had three drivers, and two of them were sitting on top of the last food cart. The two were talking and laughing along the way, and when they reached the area below Yang Junshan, the older of the two suddenly stopped talking and looked around at their surroundings, and suddenly shouted: "Stop!"

"Whooosh."

The three food carts stopped. The driver turned around and asked loudly, "Brother Ma, are we getting off here?"

Senior Martial Brother Ma, who shouted "Stop", jumped down from the cart and said, "Let's do it here. If we continue walking for some distance longer, then I'm afraid we'll have exceeded the perception range of the heart talisman. If I'm not careful and let that Ning Ji think that his son is dead, then that old thing will definitely fall out.

Senior Martial Brother Ma gestured to the cultivators still on the carriages and continued, "Get off here. Junior Martial Brother Cheng and I will bring this little ghost to meet up with Senior Martial Brother Zhao and the others inside the mountains. We will trouble Junior Martial Brother Niu and the other two to bring these food carts back to Zhang County."

While speaking, Junior Brother Cheng who was still in the carriage, received Senior Martial Brother Ma's signal and opened the box under his feet, revealing the entire spiritual valley. He then inserted his hand into the box and pulled out a fourteen to fifteen year old youth from within the box.

The young man was tied up tightly, his mouth was stuffed with sackcloth, he was buried under the spiritual valley, but he was still suffocated to death. Right now, he was thrown down the carriage and was about to struggle, but Senior Brother Ma held onto the back of his neck, he immediately became obedient.

That Junior Brother Niu laughed and said: "This secret pa.s.sage has not been opened for long, so we do not know many people. Furthermore, Martial Uncle Feng and the others are already waiting for us at the other side of the Tuo Wu Shan. On the other hand, Senior Brother Ma and Senior Brother Zhao are still in Tuo Wu Shan. Furthermore, Senior Brother Zhao's matter is rather dangerous.

After the two groups of people separated, Junior Brother Niu led the three food carts forward, but Senior Brother Ma and Junior Brother Cheng brought the bound youth to the other side of the cliff and entered the mountain. From start to finish, the two groups did not know that everything that had happened was already in Yang Junshan's eyes.
