Chapter 447: Chapter 447: Capturing the Dragon (Add 1400)

At the Refining Sword Conference,

Zhong Shenxiu suddenly sighed.

Accompanied by this sigh, the entire Hundred Refinement Peak violently collapsed...

If it were the mundane world, this alone would have caused a major casualty incident.

Even among the cultivators, many servants and disciples were buried within, and countless escape lights soared into the air, all in immense shock, "What has happened?"

Zhong Shenxiu summoned Yu Tongzi, sat on its back, and watched as the Refining Sword Conference was abruptly halted mid-way.

Ouyang Zi, who was just about to present a challenge, immediately became depressed...

But no one cared about him anymore.

After the original concealment Array shattered, a terrifying aura emanated from the black hole where Hundred Refinement Peak had once stood.

Majestic, grand...

It clearly surpassed the boundaries of a Golden Core Practitioner!

"Primordial Spirit?"

"No... it’s the aura of a Spiritual Treasure!"

Xuan Du Daoist turned pale with shock and screamed.

"Xuanji Hundred Refining Sect has hidden a Spiritual Treasure?"

All the cultivators looked towards that Sect Leader.

But the Sect Leader’s heart was filled with unease.

If things had gone as planned, the emergence of the Spiritual Treasure should not have been so abrupt.

Under the gaze of thousands, a beautifully exquisite white jade palace flew out from the black hole, with a pattern of nine dragons competing for pearls on its walls.

And on a huge plaque in front of the palace, there were three ancient seal characters: ’Wanxiang Palace.’

Regrettably, at this moment, those three characters appeared crooked and twisted, as if scrawled by a child.

Those outlines even resembled... someone’s distorted face, with two streaks of blood and tears falling.

Suddenly, thunderclouds densely gathered in the sky, as if a great terror was about to descend.

It seemed that some entity was about to undergo a tribulation.

But just as the tribulation was about to fall,

A voice filled with shock, fear, and even despair echoed faintly: "This realm... it’s poisonous, it’s poisonous!"

Accompanied by a scream, the plaque of the Wanxiang Palace shattered with a loud bang.

Roar!

From within the Wanxiang Palace, those nine Ancient Earth Lung Fire Dragons suddenly crashed through the walls, howling as they emerged, about to transform into nine fire dragons, ravaging the land, and plunging the entire Da Jing into decades of drought.

The countless Spiritual Treasures that constituted the Wanxiang Palace suddenly lost their ability to fuse, causing parts of the building to explode and scatter.

"What a pity..."

Zhong Shenxiu watched the scene, his expression unchanged.

Through three months of secluded cultivation, he had already secretly uncovered the truth.

However, why would he stop the Xuanji Hundred Refining Sect from attempting an alternative breakthrough of Primordial Spirit, by refining a Spiritual Treasure?

On the contrary, he was somewhat pleased to see their success.

Regrettably, it still failed.

"This man..."

The Sect Leader of Xuanji Hundred Refining Sect felt desperate, yet did not lose his sanity. Looking at Zhong Shenxiu’s calm demeanor, he felt that this Creation Ancestor was profoundly inscrutable, as if he had known it all along.

’The method of soul snatching must have a major flaw... Only harboring a True Spirit in a body is one aspect, but the most crucial part is, who could have anticipated that this realm was poisonous? Without the protection of a Divine Soul, the True Spirit advancing to Primordial Spirit with the Spiritual Treasure, is completely unprotected against the poison of the realm?’

’Harboring a Spiritual Treasure does seem indeed to be a shortcut to achieving Primordial Spirit... Among the five unparalleled sects of the world, have any cultivators been unable to resist laying hands on an Ancient Spiritual Treasure? There must be... but they are likely no match.’

Even if the True Spirit of an Ancient Spiritual Treasure is naïve, it is not a vegetative person.

Faced with a life-and-death threat, it would definitely instinctively resist.

And how can the Divine Soul of a normal cultivator defeat a True Spirit that can manipulate the power of a Spiritual Treasure?

Not to mention, they are attempting to overtake the host, engaging in an away battle, a battle with no chance of survival.

Only the likes of the Xuanji Hundred Refining Sect could first seize an unrefined Spiritual Treasure and attempt to ascend as one entity, holding a slight chance of success.

Plop, plop!

From the black hole, suddenly, five ash-faced Returning Elixir Old Monsters escaped, looking upon this scene, all of them sobbed loudly, "It failed..."

"Quick, fellow Daoists, join me in suppressing those nine Ancient Earth Lungs Poison Fire Dragons. If they escape, it will bring calamity to all living beings, and at least half the sins would be ours!"

Yang Baixuan, unable to grieve, saw the collapse of the Wanxiang Palace and immediately shouted.

Alas, even though these five Returning Elixir Old Monsters had astounding mana and Divine Skills, they had reached the end of their strength.

Moreover...

Zhuge Wufeng was missing!

As for the cultivators present, they were of no use.

The Poison Fire Dragon simply pounced, and even a First-Grade Pill cultivator would be refined alive!

"The Sect Leader seems to be in trouble."

Zhong Shenxiu grinned and approached the Sect Leader of the Xuanji Hundred Refining Sect, saying, "If the Sect Leader is willing to give me the method to refine this Ancient Spiritual Treasure, I could capture a Poison Fire Dragon for you. Would this deal work?"

"Please, fellow Daoist, make your move."

The Sect Leader of the Hundred Refinement Sect had no choice but to bow.

"Alright!"

Zhong Shenxiu laughed heartily, rose into the air, and intercepted a Poison Fire Dragon.

This Poison Fire Dragon, a transformation of the Ancient Earth Lung Fire vein, had been suppressed by the Xuanji Hundred Refining Sect for millions of years and was full of malevolence.

Seeing someone blocking the way, it directly spewed out a mouthful of Earth Lung Poison Fire.

This fire, being one of the seven True Fires in the world, would immediately turn even Yu Tongzi into flying ash upon contact.

Yet Zhong Shenxiu seemed unconcerned, revealing a giant image of a Stone Buddha behind him.

At that moment, the giant Buddha extended his Buddha’s Palm and caught the Poison Fire Dragon single-handedly, grasping it like one would a venomous snake, seizing its vital point.

The Poison Fire Dragon struggled continuously, its body coiled and tangled around the Stone Buddha, forming a picture of the Stone Buddha Capturing Dragon.

"This..."

The Sect Leader of the Xuanji Hundred Refinement Sect stared at this scene, dumbfounded: ’The power and mana of the Creation Ancestor... might be even greater than that of the Yang Ancestor, reaching the top level of our realm... Unless those supreme old monsters with Spiritual Treasures take action, he’s powerful enough to dominate across the world, unstoppable...’

"Sect Leader..."

Zhong Shenxiu grinned and landed beside him, smiling lightly, "I have done what was asked, where’s my reward?"

"This naturally..."

The Sect Leader hastily took out a jade slip, holding it respectfully with both hands, and presented it to Zhong Shenxiu: "Please, Creation Ancestor, continue to suppress those Poison Fire Dragons. My Xuanji Hundred Refining Sect will forever remember this favor!"

Yet Zhong Shenxiu did not rush to act but watched as the five Grand Returning Elixir Ancestors battled the eight Poison Fire Dragons from a distance.

Meanwhile, a thread of spirit seeped into the jade slip.

’This method of seizing the spirit is already half-accomplished, just marred by pollution during the ascension to the Primordial Spirit... and this method already includes the six orthodox breakthroughs for the Primordial Spirit with Spiritual Wisdom...’

’Each of these Poison Fire Dragons roughly matches a Returning Elixir fourth or fifth stage expert... But once those five old monsters recover their breath, they can completely suppress them...’

He looked around.

As the previous explosion of the Wanxiang Palace occurred, countless Loose Cultivators were frantically scrambling for the continuously scattering debris.

Even if it’s just a tile, a copper nail from a door... it is still a magic treasure!

A copper-colored ray, like a shooting star, smashed into the ground, revealing a large pit with an ancient bell within.

A cultivator wearing a bamboo hat and enveloped in black robes casually summoned the bell treasure into his hand.

"It’s a Great Perfection treasure, put it down!"

Several Loose Cultivators with red eyes rushed over but saw this person suddenly burst out with a terrifying aura, actually a Golden Core Ancestor!

"Senior, spare our lives! Spare our lives!"

They ran and knelt, then were crushed into minced meat by a giant hand of vital energy.

Yi Tianchou gently stroked the ancient bell, his eyes filled with reminiscence: "Uncle Han..."

He collected the treasure and turned his gaze towards the Sect Leader of the Xuanji Hundred Refining Sect, whose eyes were filled with barely concealed hatred: "It was indeed you... and Creation Ancestor, why assist them? Are you making an enemy of me?"

Yi Tianchou appeared deranged, seemingly having lost his rationality, suddenly crushed the Long-distance Communication Talisman, and left without looking back...
