Chapter 1150: Peak of the Cloud Sea, Bottle Beneath the Bone

The long Rift in the Restriction curtain was like a scar, now rapidly healing as it writhed. It wouldn't be long before it fully recovered. At that point, unless it was opened again with the destructive power of numerous Magic Treasures as before, it would be Sealed into eternity along with this 'Years Restriction'.

Inside the Rift was a small mountain. Cang Songzi, swift as lightning, headed directly for the peak. The woman in green robes followed behind him, both moving at high speed, approaching the mountain in a flash.

Midway up this mountain, there was a stone gate about twenty zhang tall, carved with a lightning totem!

"This is where the beast Souls are Sealed!" Cang Songzi's Divine Thought transmitted. His figure flickered, and he was already beside the mountain gate. With a grab in the Void Realm, he retrieved a silver pendant from his Storage Space, a pendant shaped like a lightning bolt!

He tossed it forward, and the pendant shot towards the stone gate, a dazzling silver light suddenly flashing from it. At the same time, the lightning totem on the stone gate also emitted silver light, echoing the pendant.

Just then, rumbling echoes resonated. The massive stone gate slowly opened with a tremor, and large clouds of dust scattered, filling the surroundings.

The moment the stone gate opened, roars capable of piercing the Soul suddenly erupted from the Immortal Cave within the stone gate. The beast Souls' angry roars and howls transformed into indescribable Divine Thoughts, instantly spreading out wildly.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao, time is short. You go retrieve the beast Souls first. This old man needs to take a look at the Dao Scripture!" Cang Songzi cupped his fist towards the woman in green robes from mid-air.

"If Fellow Daoist Zhao is interested, you might as well come with this old man to see! Perhaps you'll gain some insight!"

The woman in green robes was silent for a moment, then slowly shook her head.

Cang Songzi didn't press further. His body transformed into a streak of light and headed towards the mountain peak. Although he had never been here, the map he acquired clearly marked the location of the Dao Scripture.

The woman in green robes' eyes flickered as she stared at Cang Songzi's receding figure, her brows furrowed. She didn't believe Cang Songzi's words, but everything she saw now had no flaws. Especially the beast Soul fluctuations emanating from the Immortal Cave, which indeed, as Cang Songzi said, Sealed a large number of beast Souls.

After a brief contemplation, the woman in green robes arrived at the entrance of the Immortal Cave, sweeping her Divine Sense inwards. Her eyes then revealed a strange glint. After leaving a series of Restrictions around, she stepped inside.

Meanwhile, Cang Songzi had already reached the mountain peak. His peripheral vision swept downwards, seeing the woman in green robes enter the Immortal Cave, and a cold smile appeared on his face.

"This old man didn't lie; beast Souls are indeed Sealed there. I'm not afraid you won't go in, and even if you follow secretly, it doesn't matter!" He withdrew his gaze, and his right hand suddenly formed Hand Seals. Immediately, the stone gate of the Immortal Cave midway up the mountain let out rumbling sounds, quickly retracting and closing tightly.

Angry shouts and thudding sounds of impacts came from within from the woman in green robes.

Cang Songzi knew time was short; once the Rift closed again, it would be extremely difficult to get out. He stood at the mountain peak, took a deep breath, and an excited expression appeared on his face. He had waited for this day for a long time. He stood there, raised his hands, and slowly knelt down, hands reaching towards the sky, uttering strange sounds from his mouth.

The sounds were extremely bizarre; it was unclear what they were specifically saying, but as the words rang out, the seven-colored light in the sky intensified at that moment. Suddenly, as the seven-colored light became more dazzling, it pierced through the mist here, directly falling onto the mountain.

It circled above Cang Songzi, hovering for a moment, then transformed into a rainbow bridge, extending into a void ahead.

Cang Songzi suppressed the excitement in his heart, stood up, and stepped onto the rainbow, rushing forward. In a flash, he reached the end. In the Void Realm at the end of this rainbow, a Vortex composed of seven-colored light had now formed. Cang Songzi took a step and entered the Vortex.

Inside the Vortex was a Realm of Chaos, filled with seven-colored light. The light didn't emanate from the surroundings but from a ten-thousand-zhang stone tablet ahead. Enveloped by the seven-colored light, the stone tablet exuded an indescribable pressure, as if all who came here must kneel and worship!

Cang Songzi was no exception. He knelt on the ground, muttering to himself. Immediately, marks appeared on his body. These marks writhed, eventually all converging in Cang Songzi's eyes, like a Seal.

A moment later, he raised his head and looked at the stone tablet!

At the very bottom of the stone tablet, there was a skeleton. This skeleton was only the upper body, its arms spread out and deeply nailed to the stone tablet by stone nails formed from seven-colored light.

This was a Cultivator's skeleton. In this seven-colored world, in this Void Realm permeated by light, the color of this skeleton had not changed; instead, it emitted a striking black!

On the pitch-black bones, faint, intricate characters flickered. These characters were densely packed, covering all the bones of the skeleton.

Below the skeleton, there was a circular Formation several zhang in size. This Formation was carved with countless runes in circles. At the center of the Formation, directly beneath the broken spine of the half-skeleton, lay a jade bottle.

Cang Songzi's gaze fell upon the jade bottle, his eyes revealing a mad greed.

He knew that the characters on the skeleton were the Dao Scripture, but he had no intention of looking at this Dao Scripture. Everything before was just to fool that Old Woman in Green Robes.

"After reading this Dao Scripture, one becomes a 'Recorder'. This old man is living well, why would I risk coming in just to seek death!" He licked his lips. Cang Songzi's true objective was the jade bottle beneath the skeleton!

At this moment, black light flickered at the spine of the half-skeleton directly above the jade bottle. A drop of black, blood-like liquid gradually seeped out, falling into the jade bottle with a soft 'thud'.

Cang Songzi's body swayed forward, heading straight for the skeleton. In an instant, he arrived nearby, raising his right hand to grab the jade bottle! But the moment his right hand touched the jade bottle, Cang Songzi immediately trembled, and countless white mists instantly emanated from his entire body, rapidly absorbed by the jade bottle.

However, Cang Songzi's expression showed no panic, as if he had long known this would happen. With a wave of his left hand, a Storage Space immediately appeared beside him, from which streams of Primordial Spirits flew out.

In a moment, nearly a thousand Primordial Spirits flew out. All these Primordial Spirits were Sealed, and a thin thread was wrapped around each of them, connecting them together.

The instant these Primordial Spirits appeared, Cang Songzi uttered a strange incantation from his mouth. With a grab of his left hand behind him, he immediately seized a Primordial Spirit.

Immediately, that Primordial Spirit trembled and dissipated. But then, another Primordial Spirit began to tremble. In just ten breaths, nearly a thousand Primordial Spirits mysteriously dissipated, transforming into countless white mists that were absorbed by the jade bottle.

At the same time, Cang Songzi bit his tongue, spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood that formed a swirling blood mist. Immediately after, four golden lights flew out from his mouth, transforming into four palm-sized golden light swords, all striking towards the circular Formation outside the jade bottle. As they fell, the blood mist integrated into the swords, and with resounding 'bangs', the four small swords finally plunged firmly into the four directions of the Formation.

At this very moment, Cang Songzi let out a low shout, raising his right hand, and forcibly snatched the jade bottle, his body immediately retreating rapidly.

He let out a wild laugh. As he retreated, he waved his left hand, and the four golden light swords embedded in the Formation immediately flew back. He didn't put them away but instead let them pass directly by him, heading straight for the distant Void Realm of this seven-colored world.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao, have you seen enough!"

The Void Realm twisted, and a figure of a middle-aged beautiful woman in green robes materialized. She formed Hand Seals, and immediately, countless Restrictions encircled her, forming a Vortex to block the approaching four small swords.

But those four small golden light swords were extremely bizarre. The moment they touched the Restriction Vortex, they immediately melted into a golden liquid, penetrating the Restriction Vortex, and heading straight for the woman in green robes.

The beautiful woman in green robes' expression changed, and her body retreated again. The golden liquid immediately disintegrated, transforming into countless golden raindrops, rushing towards the woman in green robes from all directions.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao, although this old man doesn't know how you escaped, you shouldn't have followed! This is where the Dao Scripture is; you should observe it well!" Cang Songzi laughed wildly, his body flickering, about to step out of this seven-colored world and return to the mountain via the rainbow.

Once he returned to the mountain, he would immediately leave this place. At that time, the Rift in the Restriction curtain outside the mountain would heal, and the beautiful woman in green robes would be permanently trapped here! Only by abandoning her Physical Body, comprehending the Dao Scripture, and having her Primordial Spirit in a state of 'Recorder', could she escape. But by then, she would practically be no different from death, becoming just one of the many 'Recorders' here.

But at this moment, a cold snort was heard, and a figure suddenly materialized in front of Cang Songzi. This figure was also in green robes, and it was none other than that Old Woman in Green Robes!

Her appearance immediately made the place eerie; even Cang Songzi was startled!

Two female Cultivators named Zhao in green robes! One was a beautiful woman around forty, and the other was an old woman with a face full of wrinkles, but their appearances showed a striking similarity!

"This isn't a Clone! It's the 'Gathering Yang to Return Yin to Ancestor' technique!" Cang Songzi's expression changed, and a flash of lightning crossed his mind, recalling an extremely ancient, legendary forbidden technique in the Cloud Sea Star Domain!

This technique was horrifying and went against common sense. Furthermore, because it was extremely difficult to Cultivate, success was almost rare to this day. But everything before him forced Cang Songzi to believe that someone had actually Cultivated this forbidden technique to the Realm of 'Three Ancestors'!

The so-called 'Gathering Yin to Return to Ancestor' meant that after a female Cultivator engaged in Dual Cultivation with someone, she would conceive a daughter. This daughter would grow within the mother's body, and through a special Divine Ability, mother and daughter would share one body!

Years later, this mother-daughter unified female Cultivator would again engage in Dual Cultivation with someone, conceiving another daughter. The grandmother, mother, and daughter would then merge into one body using a special Divine Ability!

This method allowed for a massive increase in cultivation, and because the three Souls were one, their Divine Sense was extremely powerful!
