Chapter 38: The Great Emperor Takes Action, Covering the Sky with One Hand!
The Tianlan Domain was the only entrance city to the Human-Demon Ruins Battlefield. Inside a small, remote room at the Azure Fire Dojo.
Yu Hong, a Tribulation Transcending Realm Great Emperor powerhouse responsible for the trial battle of the two Great Holy Lands, was quietly sitting cross-legged on a small prayer mat. Before him lay a pure white ice bracelet.
The bracelet appeared to be crafted from top-grade beautiful jade, emitting endless cold air that froze the entire room into a large block of ice.
At this time.
Yu Hong, whose eyes were originally closed tight, instantly opened them.
Immediately, an identity token flew out from his storage bag. With a flash of spiritual light on the token, several lines of spiritual characters appeared before his eyes.
"Peng Monster Clan!?"
After sweeping a glance over it, Yu Hong's pupils constricted sharply.
"How is this possible? Everything within a radius of one hundred thousand li is under my surveillance. How did this Peng Monster Clan member sneak in!"
With a thought from Yu Hong's divine sense, he placed the Ninth Grade Primary Level Magic Treasure, the Ice God Bracelet, which he had not yet finished refining, onto his hand.
Immediately afterwards, Yu Hong took one step forward and teleported above the Azure Fire Dojo.
Centering on him, his powerful Tribulation Transcending Realm divine sense carried a momentum like toppling mountains and overturning seas.
It enveloped a territory with a radius of one hundred thousand li in an instant.
All cultivators in the Tianlan Domain sensed Yu Hong's momentum. The higher the realm of the cultivator, the stronger the sense of suppression they felt.
For all cultivators above the Nascent Soul Realm, the speed of spiritual energy circulation within their bodies decreased significantly. They felt their whole bodies go stiff, and fear abruptly rose in their hearts.
"There really is the aura of the Void Refining Realm Monster Race!"
Alarm appeared in Yu Hong's eyes.
Within the range of his divine sense, he indeed sensed a wave of monster energy at the Void Refining Realm. He took a step forward and transformed into a shocking rainbow afterimage.
He instantly crossed a distance of several hundred zhang, flying towards that Void Refining Realm Monster Race powerhouse whose aura was in disarray.
At this time.
In the desolate forest tens of thousands of li away from the Tianlan Domain.
The Peng Monster Clan Elder Li Qingfeng had been driven completely mad by Lin Xuan's Great Heart Demon Technique. However, as time passed, the influence of the Heart Demon Technique on him gradually began to weaken.
After all, Lin Xuan's Great Heart Demon Technique had only just achieved initial success. Although the level of the divine ability was extremely high, Lin Xuan's own spiritual energy was still too little.
Bang, bang, bang...
Watching Li Qingfeng running around madly and inflicting several wounds upon his own body, a smile appeared at the corner of Lin Xuan's mouth.
"Great Devouring Technique!"
Immediately, he cast the Great Devouring Technique to draw out all the spiritual energy within the other party's body.
Thick spiritual energy frantically surged out from several wounds on Li Qingfeng's body. Like a river of spiritual energy, it was devoured by Lin Xuan.
Although Li Qingfeng's spiritual energy was tainted with some monster nature, it was well suppressed after being processed by the Great Devouring Technique. The spiritual energy could be simply refined and directly devoured for Lin Xuan's use.
At this moment, the python dragon cell particles within Lin Xuan's body began to frantically devour this stream of pure spiritual energy. Each one devoured greedily, like a long whale sucking up water.
At the same time, dozens of python dragon cells within Lin Xuan's body transformed one after another.
This caused the number of awakened python dragon cells in Lin Xuan's body to directly break through six hundred!
When the six-hundredth python dragon cell transformed, Lin Xuan also smoothly broke through to the Foundation Establishment Seventh Heaven Realm, reaching the Late Stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.
The mist-state pill clouds within Lin Xuan's dantian began to transform into a liquid state one after another.
At the same time, the Nine Orifices Primordial Chaos Golden Pill located at Lin Xuan's heart awakened once again. Aided by the powerful beating of Lin Xuan's heart, streams of pure medicinal power flowed out from the Exquisite Nine Orifices, constantly tempering his physical body.
Crack, crack, crack!
Lin Xuan felt as if magma was flowing through the meridians and bones of his four limbs. His meridians became more robust, and the hardness of his bones was already comparable to a Third Grade Top Level Magic Treasure.
"Phew!"
Lin Xuan let out a mouthful of turbid air in comfort.
The tempering power flowed through all his internal organs, continuing in an endless cycle, causing his physique to skyrocket by a large margin.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for raising your level to the Foundation Establishment Realm Seventh Heaven. You have obtained a Ninth Grade Top Level Magic Treasure, the Mountain River Pearl!"
Joy appeared in Lin Xuan's eyes.
He hadn't expected to still draw a Ninth Grade Magic Treasure this time, and a top-level set magic treasure at that.
In the game, these Mountain River Pearls consisted of twelve pearls that could form a formation to suppress Longevity Realm mighty figures.
It was a supreme treasure refined from twelve mountains containing spiritual energy dragon veins within a small extra-terrestrial dimensional world, supplemented by countless artifact refining materials, and taking over nine hundred years to complete.
Even if every Mountain River Pearl was separated, when combined with the Mountain River Pearl's control secret technique, its power was still much stronger than ordinary Ninth Grade Magic Treasures.
It could be said to wield the power of ten thousand li of mountains to battle enemies. It was a supreme treasure integrating offense and defense.
Even if one could only activate one ten-thousandth of its power, it could still easily suppress a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator.
Lin Xuan had a thought.
The void trembled.
A fist-sized azure pearl made of crystal flew out from within. Even scanning it with the naked eye, one could see mountains, lakes, jungles, and grasslands inside, shrunk by an unknown number of times, just like a miniature world.
After the Mountain River Pearl appeared, the water system spiritual energy within a radius of several li seemed to be summoned, turning into azure ribbons that surrounded the pearl, looking extremely beautiful.
Just then.
A fierce malicious intent struck from Lin Xuan's side, already close at hand.
A sense of danger abruptly rose in his heart.
"Defend!"
Lin Xuan shrouded the Mountain River Pearl with his divine sense.
Buzz!
The next moment, a trace of azure ripples rose on the Mountain River Pearl, condensing a thin water curtain barrier on Lin Xuan's side.
Lin Xuan turned his head to look over.
He saw Li Qingfeng, whose clothes were ragged and who looked like a mad beggar, punching at him with a face full of anger.
The massive fist was blocked by the water curtain for only half a breath of time before the curtain turned into spiritual energy fragments.
However, the half breath of time won for Lin Xuan was enough.
"Great Void Technique!"
Lin Xuan had a thought and cast the Great Void Technique to hide in the crack of the void.
"Damn it, let him run away again!"
Li Qingfeng clenched his fists fiercely, staring at the silent desolate forest around him with a face full of unwillingness.
"Mn?"
Just at this moment.
Li Qingfeng sensed an extremely strong aura descending from the sky and hurriedly looked up.
Entering his vision was a black-robed old man stepping on blocks of ice condensed out of thin air, walking slowly from the void.
Although his movements looked slow, every step crossed a distance of a thousand zhang.
In the blink of an eye, he arrived above his head.
"Human Race Great Emperor!"
Li Qingfeng trembled in horror.
"Damn it, I was only focused on killing this brat and didn't have time to use the magic treasure to conceal my aura!"
Li Qingfeng's heart skipped a beat.
"Those who offend my Human Race territory, kill—"
As soon as the word "kill" fell!
It was like a red character written by the brush of a judge of the underworld, pronouncing Li Qingfeng's death sentence!
In an instant, Li Qingfeng was gripped in the center by a ten-thousand-zhang ice palm surrounding him.
The residual might alone emitted by the ice palm froze him stiff, unable to move a muscle. He could only watch helplessly as the ice palm pinched down abruptly, and his consciousness was swallowed by darkness.
When the ice palm appeared, the ground for a thousand li around was frozen by a layer of frost. The power was peerless and terrifying!
