Dharma Transmission Bell

The Magma Immortal Palace gradually surfaced, its golden pillars and red bricks majestic and grand, bringing a tremendous visual shock.

The dazzling firelight set off the entire Immortal Palace, making it look like a divine residence.

The entire Fire Persimmon Mountain trembled, emitting a terrifying roar.

Vast earth power surged, magma boiled, and sprayed upwards, reaching several zhang high!

Cultivators scattered and fled, like tiny ants under this might of heaven and earth.

The current City Lord of Fire Persimmon Immortal City appeared, his face solemn. He activated the grand formation set up in the volcano crater, pouring in his Core Formation Stage magic power with all his might.

Countless cyan-green lights condensed in mid-air, forming a net-like grand formation, covering the giant pillar of magma that was about to rush out of the crater.

The two sides collided, locked in a fierce stalemate.

The earth shook and the mountains swayed!

The entire Fire Persimmon Immortal City was awakened, countless people ran out of their residences, looking at the collapsed or tottering houses, terrified.

Black smoke from the volcanic eruption rolled upwards, like a demonic disaster descending, threatening to swallow all living beings and the world!

The black smoke billowed unstably, but the cyan-green light did not dissipate. The mountain protection grand formation remained strong, preventing a human tragedy.

The earthquake gradually weakened until it completely subsided.

The Magma Immortal Palace stood in the volcano crater, like a giant lying horizontally. Above its head was ten thousand zhang of black smoke, rolling and surging, and beneath its feet was scorching magma, boiling incessantly.

The Immortal Palace had golden pillars and red bricks, with towering high towers, majestic main halls, and exquisite side halls, combining the intensity of the fire element, the firmness of the metal element, and the solidity of the earth element.

Countless gazes, whether surprised, curious, or greedy, were all attracted to the Magma Immortal Palace.

But the next moment, the City Lord's face turned pale, and he slowly flew down from high in the sky.

He flicked his long sleeve, and the grand formation activated. Amidst the shifting light and shadows, the Magma Immortal Palace was concealed, no longer visible.

The cultivators in the volcano crater suffered heavy casualties, and those who ventured into the volcano's interior were completely annihilated.

Zheng Shuang Gou led the remaining members of the Ning Family, riding a cloud, and flew to the City Lord: "Lord City Lord."

He reported, communicating with his divine sense, which was very fast.

The City Lord understood the cause and effect, his face solemn, his gaze extremely cold: "Investigate! Investigate thoroughly for me, that Black Shadow Demonic Cultivator must pay the price of death!"

He then glanced at the remaining members of the Ning Family behind Zheng Shuang Gou: "These people must also be investigated. All the surviving cultivators are to be imprisoned first and interrogated severely!"

"Do your best to collect all clues related to the Black Shadow Demonic Cultivator."

"If they are found to be his accomplices, they will be severely punished without mercy!"

The City Lord was the only Core Formation Stage cultivator in Fire Persimmon Immortal City. At this moment, he was in a very bad mood.

During his tenure, the Magma Immortal Palace was discovered.

But he did not report it, choosing instead to conceal it from his superiors.

He wanted to keep the Magma Immortal Palace hidden, digest it internally within his own faction, secretly develop it, and ultimately make the Immortal Palace his own.

Things did not go as planned.

The Zhou Family and the Zheng Family successively discovered this secret.

The City Lord had no choice but to compromise and secretly sign a contract with the two families. This year, the Ning Family also discovered this secret.

The Ning Family also had Golden Core cultivators and was also a major cultivation clan in the Immortal City, so the City Lord was already prepared to accept them.

The City Lord had painstakingly worked to create a situation where the four strongest forces in the Immortal City would compete and develop the Magma Immortal Palace together, preventing other outsiders.

But now, this situation was on the verge of collapse!

"Black Shadow Demonic Cultivator, this damned Black Shadow Demonic Cultivator!!" The moment he thought of the culprit, the deep-seated resentment in the City Lord's heart surged like a tide.

"What should I do?"

The City Lord suppressed his anger and hatred, contemplating a solution.

He was merely a City Lord dispatched from the South Bean Country and could not cover the sky with one hand.

"Hateful! Once the news reaches the capital, it will no longer be up to me!"

He was just one of the high-ranking officials of the South Bean Country. Compared to the entire South Bean Country, even as a Core Formation cultivator, he was very fragile.

"Alas... I'll hide it for as long as I can."

"Fortunately, the Magma Immortal Palace did not fully emerge, remaining in the volcano crater. As long as I repair the grand formation, and at the same time arrange rolling clouds and smoke to cover it, and issue a ban, I can..."

Clang, clang, clang!

A series of bell sounds suddenly came from deep within the volcano.

The bell rang long and resonated throughout the heavens and earth.

Those who heard the bell sounds, at the same time, gradually had a cultivation technique appear in their minds.

The City Lord's heart was greatly shaken, his face turned extremely ugly, and he blurted out: "Dharma Transmission Bell?!"

The night was deep.

The entire Fire Persimmon Immortal City was still in chaos. Countless houses had collapsed, and the citizens were discussing intensely, with the vast majority looking up at the mountain peak.

The City Lord's large-scale confrontation with the Immortal Palace just now made it clear to everyone that something extraordinary must have happened at the mountain peak!

Just then, a deep and vast bell sound came!

Clang, clang, clang...

The bell sound resonated, reaching the clouds.

The bell sound vibrated the outer city walls of Fire Persimmon Immortal City, echoing in countless large and small alleys.

It covered the high courts, it spread to the common dwellings. It stirred every inch of airflow in the air, enveloping the entire Immortal City.

It precisely penetrated into the hearts of every intelligent being, shaking their minds!

Countless people cried out in surprise and confusion, but the next moment, they were attracted by the chapters of the cultivation technique that were gradually forming in their minds.

City Lord's Mansion.

A burly young man was sleeping soundly on the ground, startled awake by the bell sound, and suddenly opened a pair of large eyes.

"Wah!" he cried out, supporting himself with his arms, and quickly stood up, bringing with him a gust of wind.

"Enemies?!" The burly young man was full of vigilance.

At this moment, the Fire Persimmon City Lord transmitted a message: "Meng Chong, my grandson, quickly comprehend! This is the Dharma Transmission Bell sound, the key to competing for the Magma Immortal Palace!"

"Dharma Transmission Bell?" The burly young man, Meng Chong, received the reminder and immediately stood still, his posture straight as a spear, his eyes vacant, but staring intently ahead, desperately memorizing and comprehending the cultivation technique that appeared in his mind.

Zhou Family.

The young cultivators Zhou Ze Shen and Zhou Zhu were jointly studying the mechanism diagram.

One was short, the other tall; one was weak, the other strong.

In an instant, their expressions and movements froze.

After the bell rang for a few breaths, Zhou Ze Shen said with a shocked expression: "Quick, quick, quick! This seems to be the Dharma Transmission Bell. The bell sound contains cultivation techniques! Quickly comprehend."

Zhou Zhu was taciturn and usually relied on Zhou Ze Shen's ideas. He immediately sat down cross-legged and closed his eyes.

Zheng Family.

Zheng Jian was strictly checking the family's account books.

This young cultivator wore a headband on his forehead, with a pupil-shaped gem set in the center of the headband.

The steward standing before him had a pale face and was covered in sweat.

Zheng Jian suddenly snorted coldly, threw the account book to the ground, and low-voiced: "Your fake accounts, you still think you can hide them from me?"

The steward trembled all over and immediately fell to the ground.

At this moment, the bell sound came.

Zheng Jian listened for a few sounds, his expression changed drastically, and he waved the steward away: "I won't question you for now, get out!"

Ning Family.

As the recognized genius of the clan—Ning Xiaohui—she had made too many talismans during the day and was exhausted. Even when the bell sound reached her, she still frowned deeply and remained in deep sleep, not waking up.

Ning Ji was cultivating. The bell sound startled him, breaking his state, and he was full of surprise: "What is this?"

Volcano crater.

Zheng Shuang Gou was still riding the cloud.

On the cloud, the Ning Family cultivators were sprawled out.

Not just them, most of the other cultivators were also lying or sitting in place.

"Opportunity, this is opportunity!" The cultivators were ecstatic and desperately memorized.

Ning Chen sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes tightly, his brows furrowed, giving his full effort.

Ning Yong desperately covered his forehead: "Ah, ah, ah, remember it for me! Head, I'm counting on you, remember it for me!"

Ning Zhuo was both surprised and delighted: "I succeeded! The selection criteria for the Magma Immortal Palace, I've met them."

"But its selection method has changed, directly transmitting Qi Refining Stage cultivation techniques."

This was something Ning Zhuo hadn't anticipated.

Like the other cultivators, Ning Zhuo stood still, listening carefully to the bell.

The bell's sound gradually transformed into a cultivation technique—the Five Elements Qi Rhythm Art!

"With this cultivation technique, I can now break free from the Ning Family's Snowy Region Talisman Compendium."

For a moment, the relief, excitement, and sense of accomplishment from his long-term planning, personal risks, and the results exceeding his imagination surged through the young man's heart.

It was precisely—

The mechanical fire monkey leaps through magma, the cold iron armor breaks the dawn frost.

Buddha and demon are hidden deep, the immortal palace shakes, revealing the light of day.

The Dao bell roars, transmitting a new method, the Five Elements Qi Rhythm is naturally close.

Cultivate to the endless end, remove seals and break locks, act freely!
