Chapter 285: Chapter 285: Strange Resemblance

Magma raged in all directions, filling numerous valleys around them.

Atop the rocky mountain surrounded by magma, everyone stared fixedly at the erupting spot.

Because it was from there that the aura of immortality emanated, strand by strand. Immortal objects were beneath this volcano.

"A whoosh—"

The Flame Wolf General was the first to charge forward. Being specialized in fire cultivation, it was more immune to flames. With a wave of its aura, a surging flame automatically formed around it, seamlessly integrating with the magma as it sank down without any resistance.

"A splash—"

The Flame Wolf General was too impatient. In its eyes, everything in this Fire Mountain Range belonged to it. Who dared to compete with it?

But in front of immortal objects, who cared about it?

"Splashes—"

Powerful individuals jumped into the melting gold and bone lava without hesitation or reluctance.

Who would yield to immortal objects?

In the blink of an eye, the Giant Deer King, Wuan, Huiguang, Daweitianlong with Jinchán, and others Zhongshan recognized, all went down.

Nian Youyou also made an independent decision to jump in. She glanced at Zhongshan, still wearing a cold expression. Then she glanced at Ada, who was guarding Zhongshan, and gracefully entered the magma.

Watching Nian Youyou go down, Zhongshan frowned slightly, sighing deeply.

"Master, should we go down?" Ada immediately asked Zhongshan.

"Let\'s go. Protect me," Zhongshan nodded.

"Yes!" Ada responded promptly.

Then, Ada formed a sturdy aura shield and flew towards the erupting magma, gradually descending into the depths following the emergence of the immortal aura.

What lay below?

Outside the magma, those below the Nascent Soul stage blocked the way, only those above the Unity stage dared to go down.

As they descended, the temperature rose. All around them was a fiery red, and the deeper they went, the fewer impurities there were, and the higher the temperature. The terrifying heat constantly battered the protective auras of the strong.

After about five miles of descent, some Unity stage experts couldn\'t bear it anymore. The magma below had turned pure white, too hot, too terrifying. Their protective auras trembled as if they were about to collapse at any moment.

Helplessly, except for the ones led by the Emperor-level experts, everyone else had to retreat.

Seeing the increasing density of immortal aura, everyone could only sigh deeply.

Ten miles deep, twenty miles deep, fifty miles deep.

When they reached fifty miles deep, there was no magma or impurities around, only endless scorching flames.

Only Emperor-level experts could stay in such a terrifying heat.

"Master, we\'ve found it!" Ada said excitedly.

"Yes, we\'ve found it!" Zhongshan took a deep breath.

All those who descended were gathered around a certain object.

A massive object, about a foot thick and nearly a hundred meters in diameter, like a giant pancake.

The round object had two colors: one was pure white, and the other was a dark red. These two colors on the circular surface perfectly formed the shape of a Tai Chi Yin-Yang fish.

The flames around the object were forced to retreat by the imposing presence emanating from it. This giant object with a diameter of a hundred meters had no flames around it from all directions.

Around the circumference of this Tai Chi Yin-Yang fish-shaped object, there was a circle of energy resembling a protective aura, faintly emitting a bluish light, as if this bluish light was trapping the circular object.

Everyone looked on with uncertainty.

"Master, the aura of immortality, it\'s leaking from the Yang fish. There\'s so much of it, so much immortal aura. The Yang fish is entirely made of immortal aura. It must have been left behind by the ancient immortals," Ada exclaimed in wonder.

It made sense. Just a trace of immortal aura outside had already caused such a great effect. Here, it was concentrated and visible, and such a large piece was invaluable!

If the Yang fish was made of immortal aura, then what about the Yin fish?

A monster? Was it that monster? Alive or dead?

At this moment, most people\'s gazes turned towards Daweitianlong Bodhisattva, because here, he was universally acknowledged as having the highest cultivation level. Everyone looked at him not with vigilance, but with anticipation.

Zhongshan frowned slightly. Had he and Ada arrived late? What had happened just now?

At this moment, Nian Youyou also flew over, her expression somewhat solemn.

"What just happened?" Zhongshan immediately asked.

"We all tried attacking the bluish light outside the aura of immortal aura, but we couldn\'t break it. It\'s too strong. This bluish light\'s defense is too strong. Even Emperor-level cultivators\' attacks had no effect. It remained unchanged. Only the artifacts left behind by ancient immortals have such strong protection. It\'s too powerful!" Nian Youyou said.

"Bluish light?" Zhongshan frowned.

Everyone\'s hopeful gazes turned towards Daweitianlong Bodhisattva, because Daweitianlong Bodhisattva had yet to make a move.

With a slight smile, Daweitianlong Bodhisattva gave Jinchán a cautious look.

In the blink of an eye, Jinchán took out a robe embroidered with numerous precious stones. Putting on the robe, he stepped out of Daweitianlong Bodhisattva\'s protection.

Standing outside, the flames automatically avoided him.

Without hesitation, Daweitianlong Bodhisattva also walked forward slowly, his hand reaching out towards the massive pancake.

"Whoosh—"

His right hand turned golden, without much imposing aura. It gently cut towards the bluish light above the Yang fish.

Everyone tightened their grips on their respective magical treasures and weapons, as if they were ready to strike at any moment. Even if they couldn\'t get a piece of the pie, they could at least have a sip of the soup.

It was evident that Daweitianlong Bodhisattva was finding it extremely difficult to cut through. But thankfully, he slowly made progress.

The bluish light wasn\'t thick, only as wide as a palm, but it took Daweitianlong Bodhisattva half an hour to cut out a small opening.

Success! The cut was made, and now a large amount of immortal aura was about to gush out.

However, in the moment the small opening was made, something strange happened.

The internal Tai Chi Yin-Yang fish suddenly started rotating, and where the cut had been made, the Yang fish part was instantly replaced by the Yin fish part, as if in that moment, the Yin fish had come alive. The dark red Yin fish suddenly swam towards the small opening, pushing the immortal aura aside.

"Boom—"

It broke through Daweitianlong Bodhisattva\'s right hand, rushing out violently without any pause, as if this place was its nightmare, flying madly upwards.

"You dare—"

Daweitianlong Bodhisattva roared angrily. After all the effort he had put in, how could he let it escape?

With a palm extended, a massive golden net descended from above, intending to capture the dark red Yin fish. However, at this moment, the Yin fish had already transformed into a dark red cloud-like entity.

"Whoosh—"

It directly passed through the golden net and flew out, soaring into the sky without stopping.

Several strong individuals chased after it, including Wuan, whom Zhongshan recognized.

Others still kept their eyes on Daweitianlong Bodhisattva. Because in front of him was what everyone wanted the most. Immortal aura, entirely made of immortal aura. Daweitianlong Bodhisattva wouldn\'t monopolize it, would he?

As everyone prepared to fight desperately for it—

"Hum—"

Daweitianlong Bodhisattva suddenly dodged aside, his eyes wide with uncertainty as he looked at the Yin fish he had just grabbed and the bluish light.

Did he no longer want it? Daweitianlong Bodhisattva backed away quickly. What was going on?

Some of those who were about to rush forward immediately stopped, but there were still some reckless ones. Huiguang Luohan ignored everyone and rushed forward quickly.

"Boom—"

The bluish light burst forth, and Huiguang Luohan was sent flying back faster than before.

Now, everyone fell silent. They looked on with suspicion.

Bluish light, endless bluish light, flashing so brightly that it blinded everyone\'s eyes.

Most of them were Emperor-level experts, and they had already adapted to the strong light underground. But now, they were still blinded by the bluish light?

When Zhongshan regained his senses, he furrowed his brow.

Not only Zhongshan, but everyone else also furrowed their brows.

Because the bluish light and the Yang fish condensed from immortal aura were slowly changing shape. And an invisible pressure spread out in all directions.

Life? It was the breath of life again!

"Hum—"

The bluish light suddenly gathered together, then condensed into a humanoid form.

A transparent humanoid figure. With a pinch of her hand, the Yang fish beside her turned into a blue flower.

"Is it a remnant of an immortal?" Nian Youyou exclaimed in astonishment.

A remnant of an immortal? The remnant left by an immortal before ascending 18,000 years ago? This remnant even had a connection with the original body. Although it didn\'t have the strength of the immortal\'s original body, it was still an incredibly powerful existence, like an incarnation outside of the body. It could only maintain its form for a short time.

Everyone took a step back, because before them stood an immortal. At least, their thoughts were on an immortal, a being that everyone looked up to, an immortal.

Only Zhongshan was completely stunned.

Bao\'er? Gan Bao\'er? His own wife, Bao\'er?

The immortal in front of him looked exactly like Bao\'er, truly identical. If it weren\'t for his invisible body looking at Bao\'er right now, Zhongshan would have thought she was Bao\'er.

Why did she look exactly like Bao\'er, with the same appearance, height, and even the same mole in the same place on her finger? Exactly the same!
