Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity

Ice crystals fell, bringing with them gusts of cold air from the sky. Within a hundred miles, light was refracted and distorted, while below, the sand was ablaze.

Thus, the sea of ​​sand turned into a sea of ​​fire, with each grain of sand swirling with flames. The astonishing heat distorted the void, and the sky darkened. In this scene of purgatory, flames and ice crystals clashed, sometimes freezing hundreds of miles, sometimes engulfing the sky in flames.

The two forces were evenly matched and fought side by side, with cold air and heat waves rising simultaneously, affecting a hundred miles.

The Crimson Hell Dragon roared, its might vast and boundless, stretching for hundreds of miles. With a single breath, flames erupted once more, shattering the ice crystals and swirling into a sea of ​​fire that hurtled towards Meng Xiangrui.

Meng Xiangrui raised an eyebrow slightly, and with a wave of his sleeve, a large swath of golden light enveloped him, transforming into a protective shield. The flames and sand that filled the sky crashed into it only caused ripples, unable to harm its roar.

"roar!"

The Crimson Hell Dragon roared, its enormous tail sweeping across the area with a fierce lash, striking the golden protective shield. The shield trembled slightly but did not shatter; instead, it was simply knocked away.

"Red Sky Cracking Claw!"

The magnificent claw light, carrying extreme sharpness and flames, rolled towards Meng Xiangrui and landed on the golden protective shield.

"Sizzle sizzle..."

The golden light flickered, and as the claws fell one by one, a slight crack appeared on the protective shield, indicating instability.

"Golden Light Mantra Protection!"

Meng Xiangrui smiled coldly, and with a change of gestures, one strange rune after another appeared on the protective shield. The shield shone with golden light, and all the cracks were instantly healed. The shield became even more solid and steadily blocked the claw light.

"Your cultivation speed has indeed surprised me. You have reached the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm in such a short time. If I continue to let you continue like this, you may really become a major threat to me."

Meng Xiangrui spoke calmly, raising an eyebrow at Yu Changsheng, his tone slightly leisurely.

"However, you are still lacking in skill. My divine power can withstand even a Nascent Soul cultivator, let alone you. Don't bother struggling in vain."

Yu Changsheng frowned and swung the Purple Spirit Emperor Sword in his hand. A series of stunning sword lights were unleashed, landing on the golden light shield, but they were completely annihilated by the rippling golden light, without causing any harm to Meng Xiangrui inside.

"Chirp chirp!"

Two more streaks of light appeared in Yu Changsheng's inner vision, transforming into a golden-winged roc and a colorful star deer, standing on the left and right sides around Yu Changsheng.

The golden-winged roc cried out, its clear cry piercing through gold and splitting stone, resounding through the sky. Suddenly, it soared through the desert sands, flapping its great wings. Instantly, a fierce wind, like a blade, swept up the sand and gravel, turning it into a sandstorm that swept towards Meng Xiangrui.

With a gentle step, the colorful deer's winding antlers burst forth with seven-colored light. Under the weaving of the light, a giant seven-colored lotus flower appeared, its petals swirling like a dream. A strange wave swept across, carrying the power of the divine soul, toward Meng Xiangrui.

Meng Xiangrui's expression remained unchanged, but he pursed his lips slightly, gently biting the tip of his tongue. A crimson sensation filled his mouth, and a few drops of blood were spat out onto the golden light shield. Instantly, the golden light shield trembled, revealing a blood-red hue within the golden light, thus receiving further reinforcement. He remained unmoved, even as the storm of the Golden-Winged Roc swept over the golden light shield.

The storm raged, but Meng Xiangrui remained as steadfast as a rock, calmly enduring the swirling sand and wind. All the destructive power was completely blocked by the golden light shield.

The seven-colored lotus shimmered, and a mesmerizing wave spread. Silently, the attack, which belonged to the realm of the divine soul, was completely dissolved and quietly annihilated by the tremors of the golden light shield.

"It's useless. The Golden Light Curse Protection is a unique divine power of my holy land. It is not only difficult to break through magic, but it can also perfectly resist even soul attacks."

Meng Xiangrui spoke calmly, his expression unconsciously carrying a hint of arrogance. The storm raged around him, and the sea of ​​fire slowly burned him. Amidst the wind and fire, his body stood as firm as a mountain, completely unaffected.

The overwhelming power was completely isolated and neutralized by its golden light shield.

For a time, Yu Changsheng was unable to do anything about it.

Yu Changsheng frowned, and upon seeing this, he squinted at Meng Xiangrui, his heart sinking slightly.

"This old thing isn't fighting me at all; it's just passively defending itself, clearly stalling for time, waiting for its main body to arrive..."

"But once his true form arrives, with his Nascent Soul cultivation, I have absolutely no chance of survival. No, I can't continue to waste time with him; I must finish this quickly!!!"

After thinking it over, Yu Changsheng took a deep breath, pursed his lips, and looked at Meng Xiangrui with a profound gaze. He patted the storage bag, and an ancient bronze mirror covered with cracks appeared in his hand.

These are the spoils of war that Yu Changsheng acquired during the battle with Huangpu Yuanji: a remnant of a divine weapon and a sacrificial mirror!

The mirror was covered with cracks, with not a single spot intact, so it clearly wouldn't last much longer.

At this moment, when Yu Changsheng summoned it, Meng Xiangrui's gaze sharpened, his pupils contracted slightly, revealing a hint of apprehension. He then sneered and said:

"Very well, this remnant of a divine weapon was originally something I gave to Huangpu Yuanji. Now it has fallen into the hands of you, you brat. It's truly a cruel twist of fate."

Yu Changsheng remained indifferent and silent, his inner power surging and flowing into the Sacrifice Mirror. In an instant, the Sacrifice Mirror shone brightly, and a divine weapon's might vaguely descended.

"wipe!"

Yu Changsheng roared, the mirror flipped, reflecting Meng Xiangrui's image into it, and his finger suddenly slashed at the golden light shield surrounding Meng Xiangrui's image in the mirror, trying to erase it.

In the void, the space around Meng Xiangrui suddenly twisted, and a vague power of law descended, transforming into a giant pair of scissors that fiercely slashed at the golden light shield enveloping Meng Xiangrui!

Yu Changsheng knew that even if it was a remnant of a divine weapon, it was impossible to directly eliminate Meng Xiangrui with it. What he wanted was to eliminate Meng Xiangrui's strange supernatural power!

As a result, the golden light shield shook, and with the arrival of the scissors, violent ripples appeared, making it somewhat unstable. Meng Xiangrui's face quickly darkened, and with gritted teeth, he slammed his hand into his chest. In an instant, a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth and landed on the golden light shield.

"Buzzing!!"

The blood from his heart was greedily absorbed by the golden light shield, which quickly became tinged with blood. The dense runes rearranged and combined, transforming into an even stronger golden light shield that protected Meng Xiangrui within.

In an instant, the previously unstable golden light shield quickly stabilized and even trembled violently, with an invisible wave sweeping across and landing on the scissors that had been wiped away.

The scissors trembled as they were wiped away, and for the first time, a collapse occurred. A residual force rippled through Yu Changsheng, whose lips curled into a sweet taste as a trickle of blood slowly oozed out. He looked up at Meng Xiangrui, a hint of ferocity and decisiveness flashing in his eyes.

With a thought, he deliberately parted his fingers, revealing drops of blood essence containing pure and rich life force, which dripped onto the sacrificial mirror!

"Sacrifice yourself!"

The sacrificial mirror swayed, its surface rapidly turning blood-red as it greedily absorbed the essence blood. In an instant, its light shone brightly, and the power of the divine weapon was fully displayed, its terrifying pressure causing the void to rumble.

Beneath the blur, the laws of erasure emerged, transforming into a gigantic, illusory pair of scissors, like the sky tilting, stirring up the winds and clouds.

The Mirror of Sacrifice, being named for sacrifice, naturally requires a sacrifice to unleash its full power.

The sacrifice is not only of the enemy, but also of oneself!

As Yu Changsheng used his own life force to awaken the Sacrifice Mirror, an even more powerful erasing force descended once more, slashing fiercely at the golden light shield enveloping Meng Xiangrui!

The void blurred, the golden light flickered, and the intense light rippled like ocean waves. Countless runes danced and resisted the slash, but they all collapsed one after another.

"Damn it!"

Meng Xiangrui cursed, his hand gestures changing rapidly as he circulated his peak Purple Mansion cultivation, frantically reinforcing the golden light shield.

Boom!

As the scissors fell, a third of the golden light vanished in an instant. Yu Changsheng's face turned pale instantly, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His breath was slightly weak, but the madness in his eyes was even more intense. He gritted his teeth again, and drops of life-giving essence blood fell from his fingers onto the sacrificial mirror.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

And so, the erasing scissors stirred things up again, and the golden light was annihilated once more, as if it had been erased from its very source, and the golden light shield dimmed considerably.

Boom!

The attacks from the Crimson Hell Dragon and the Golden-Winged Roc descended instantly, and in a flash, countless wind blades, as sharp as knives, rained down on the golden light shield.

The endless fire, carrying terrifyingly high temperatures, pulsed and transformed into long, fiery dragons, fiercely bombarding the golden light shield.

As a result, the golden light shield shook violently, and although it did not collapse, it dimmed considerably again.

"Not enough!"

Yu Changsheng let out a low cry, looked at the sacrificial mirror in his hand, clenched his fist, and slammed it hard against his chest. A mouthful of blood, containing pure and rich life force, spurted out and landed on the surface of the sacrificial mirror, where it was devoured and absorbed.

In an instant, the illusory giant scissors solidified once more, carrying the power to erase the laws of nature, and closed for the last time, slicing down towards the golden light shield!

Click!

In the void, something seemed to shatter. The scissors fell, tearing the golden light apart. This time, the golden light shield finally couldn't hold on and collapsed, revealing Meng Xiangrui, whose face was deathly pale!

At the very instant the golden light shield shattered, on the other side, the sacrificial mirror in Yu Changsheng's hand also roared, and with the last crack spreading across the mirror surface, it suddenly collapsed into countless fragments.

This divine weapon, though in its final moments, could not escape the fate of complete collapse.

Yu Changsheng was neither surprised nor disappointed by this. Instead, his gaze suddenly sharpened, and all the methods he had prepared beforehand were unleashed at this moment!

Boom!

In an instant, the four Purple Mansion Gates within Yu Changsheng's body opened wide, drawing in the power of heaven and earth, while a terrifying torrent of blood and qi surged forth, empowering Yu Changsheng.

Yu Changsheng's face was contorted with rage, his blood seemed to boil, veins bulged, his body suddenly swelled up, his blood and qi surged like thunder, and his heart pounded violently like a furnace.

Even more immense divine soul power surged forth, enveloping an area of ​​a hundred miles. In an instant, the sky and earth changed color, and grains of sand reversed direction and floated uncontrollably upwards.

At this moment, Yu Changsheng's cultivation at the mid-stage of the Purple Mansion realm erupted completely. As he gently exhaled a breath of white, he gripped the Purple Spirit Emperor Sword with his right hand, and the figure of the sword spirit, the Purple Child, emerged. It was connected with Yu Changsheng's mind, and its small hand also gripped the sword hilt. Its gaze was firm, and intense purple light dyed half the sky. A sharp sword intent was about to be unleashed.

"In the beginning..."

Yu Changsheng gently closed his eyes, his lips twitching as he uttered two words. The purple child and Yu Changsheng's arms moved in unison, and in an instant, a sword light pierced the void, revealing a crack.

Light emerged from within the crack.

This gentle light, imbued with the meaning of encompassing all things and nurturing all life, spread out from the crack. The moment it appeared, the wind stopped, the sand in the desert ceased to tremble, and time and space seemed to freeze. Only the brilliant light continued to spread quietly and naturally, gradually enveloping this world.

Everything has light, a strange light, a light of hope, a light of dominance, a source... it is the beginning!

"The creation of heaven and earth!"

Yu Changsheng's mind was completely immersed in this sword. Within his body, every part of his body, every limb and bone, tiny specks of light surged forth and fell into the Primordial Light. The surging power of his divine soul, the rushing torrent of blood and qi, and the boundless cultivation and magical power...

Everything changed as Yu Changsheng and Zi Xiaohai grasped the Purple Spirit Emperor Sword and gently slashed it!

Boom!

The primordial light converged, transforming into a dazzling and magnificent sword beam, which suddenly slashed down and shot towards Meng Xiangrui!

This sword strike is hard to describe in words. As soon as the sword was drawn, spiritual energy frantically clung to it, and the power of heaven and earth was stirred up. As a result, the sword light was like a rainbow, and heaven and earth were shocked!

As the sword light slashed down, a violent life-or-death crisis exploded in Meng Xiangrui's heart in an instant. Fear and panic filled Meng Xiangrui's mind at this moment. He desperately resisted and used all his supernatural powers, but under this sword, everything was like a tree being shaken by a whirlwind, collapsing instantly and unable to stop him in the slightest.

As the sword light flashed, Meng Xiangrui's body suddenly froze amidst a dazzling primordial light. The terror on his face solidified, and he turned his head with difficulty to look at Yu Changsheng, his eyes filled with astonishment and disbelief.

"A Saint-level cultivation technique... how could this be..."

With a final, bitter laugh of resentment, the light in Meng Xiangrui's eyes dimmed completely, his body collapsed, and he transformed into countless rays of light, slowly dissipating.

Only a sigh echoed faintly.

Meng Xiangrui couldn't understand why Yu Changsheng had kept this up his sleeve. He vividly remembered the battle between Yu Changsheng and Huangpu Yuanji that day and thought he knew all of Yu Changsheng's trump cards.

But to his utter surprise, there was this sword technique, a Saint-level skill. In his opinion, even someone as talented as Yu Changsheng, born in a barbarian land, should not have come into contact with it.

The sword's light dissipated, and Meng Xiangrui also perished. Heaven and earth returned to calm. This sword strike was incomparably domineering and incredibly powerful, annihilating not only Meng Xiangrui's clone but also the causal link between the clone and the original. (End of Chapter)
