Upon seeing the gray bone spear piercing the ground, Mu Qianqian's expression darkened. "Senior Hua Gu, are you preparing to wage a full-scale war against my Great Demonic Sect?"

In the Great Wilderness County, all the powerful figures knew that the gray bone spear was a spiritual treasure belonging exclusively to Hua Gu, a powerful cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Qi Creation Realm in the Yin Puppet Sect. Since Hua Gu had openly used his own spiritual treasure, it was clear that he was preparing to kill and seize the treasure.

“As long as you two die here, no one will know who did it,” the old man in the gray robe slowly landed on the bone spear. “You don’t think that pointing out my identity from the beginning will make me stop, do you?”

After he finished speaking, several more figures appeared. These were the same few powerful cultivators at the Creation Realm who had been following Hua Zong back in Great Puppet City.

Seeing the successive appearances of powerful cultivators at the Shaping Realm, Mu Qianqian's expression calmed down. "It seems, Elder Hua Gu, you think you've got us cornered?"

"No need for bluster," Hua Gu said coldly. "Before we left, I confirmed with the sect leader that all the experts at the Creation Realm of the Great Demon Sect are at your headquarters, and several elders at the Great Completion of the Qi Creation Realm are also staying in their respective cities. In other words, Elder Ye, who is beside you, is the only expert at the Great Completion of the Qi Creation Realm that the Great Demon Sect can send out."

Besides, even if you've recruited other powerful individuals, they're nothing compared to my talisman puppets!

With a wave of its skeletal hand, a talisman puppet exuding an extremely oppressive aura appeared.

"You actually brought out this high-level talisman puppet?" Upon seeing the talisman puppet, Mu Qianqian's eyes widened in disbelief. "This talisman puppet can only fight one last time, right?"

“Using a high-level talisman puppet that’s almost crumbling in exchange for spiritual martial arts, I think anyone could make that choice,” Hua Gu was very satisfied with the expression on Mu Qianqian’s face. Then, his gaze fell on the Great Demon Sect’s Qi Creation Realm expert who hadn’t spoken yet, standing beside Mu Qianqian. “What’s the point of maintaining this pretense?”

He stared intently at the powerful Qi Creation Realm expert. He seemed to have never seen this elder in the Great Demon Sect before, which was why Hua Gu had taken out the high-level talisman puppet that could withstand a Qi Creation Realm expert.

"So, your Martial Alliance is also planning to get involved?" After glancing at Hua Gu in front of him, the man turned back to look at the hill not far away and said calmly.

Martial Alliance?

Upon hearing these two words, Hua Gu's expression changed slightly. In his previous perception, there should only be the two people from the Great Demon Sect nearby. Where did the Martial Alliance people come from? Moreover, according to intelligence, the Martial Alliance's experts were discussing whether to make a deal with the Spirit Martial Duo, so they shouldn't be around here!

"No, I just wanted to see if there was anything I could help with..."

As the voice of the Great Demon Sect member faded, Wu Ci, dressed in black, awkwardly emerged from behind the hill, carrying the unconscious Hua Zong in his hand. "However, since you're here, it seems that even if I hadn't come, there wouldn't have been any problem..."

you?

Hua Gu, who had breathed a sigh of relief upon discovering that only Wu Ci was there, froze again.

"You recognized me?"

Xiao Yan, who had been invited to the headquarters of the Great Demon Sect by the sect for 100,000 Nirvana Pills, looked at Wu Ci with slight surprise. He had not revealed anything beyond the level of a Qi Creation Realm cultivator on the way, while Wu Ci was only a Qi Creation Realm cultivator. He shouldn't have been able to tell his identity.

Upon hearing this question, Wu Ci's face revealed a somewhat subtle expression. "You may not know, but even in front of the leader of the Great Demon Sect, Mu Qianqian... will not restrain her alluring nature."

"Is that so?" Xiao Yan was slightly surprised, then his gaze fell on Mu Qianqian beside him. "You should go first. You probably don't want to touch what these people have, right?"

A few days ago, the powerful Qi Creation Realm expert from the Great Demon Sect did indeed come to find Xiao Yan with Mu Qianqian. However, although they carried 100,000 Nirvana Pills, the deal they proposed was not to exchange for spiritual martial arts techniques. Instead, they hoped to use these 100,000 Nirvana Pills to invite Xiao Yan to the headquarters of the Great Demon Sect. Only after arriving at the headquarters would they proceed with the exchange for spiritual martial arts techniques.

Of course, the so-called invitation to Xiao Yan to the Great Demon Sect with 100,000 Nirvana Pills was just a pretext. The main purpose was to exchange 200,000 Nirvana Pills for a spiritual martial arts manual suitable for most people to cultivate, even if it wasn't particularly powerful.

For Xiao Yan, there was no reason to refuse such a Nirvana Pill that was essentially given away for free, so the deal was naturally made. He also mentioned that if any ignorant people, such as the powerful members of the Yin Puppet Sect, appeared on the road, all the things they carried would belong to him.

The members of the Great Demon Sect naturally dared not object to the conditions proposed by Xiao Yan.

"Of course," Mu Qianqian said with a smile, then her figure flashed and she quickly leaped over Hua Gu and the other members of the Yin Kui Sect who were restricted to their positions by Xiao Yan.

"Then, I'll head back first." Wu Ci decisively tossed the unconscious Hua Zong at Xiao Yan's feet, and then, without daring to linger for a moment, rushed towards the direction of Da Kui City.

"I'm not the kind of person who kills innocent people indiscriminately." With a smirk, Xiao Yan approached Hua Gu and the others, casually taking the Qiankun bags from their bodies.

"One hundred thousand Nirvana Pills, enough to resist a high-level Creation Realm talisman puppet?" After scanning the items in the Qiankun Bag with his spiritual power, Xiao Yan glanced at the immobilized Hua Gu with a slightly strange look. "Your Yin Puppet Sect doesn't think that with just these two items, you can make me produce a spiritual martial art suitable for your Yin Puppet Sect, do you?"

After shaking his head in disdain, Xiao Yan jumped over the group without looking back.

After Xiao Yan's figure completely disappeared, Hua Gu and the others' bodies suddenly exploded, leaving only a few ashes behind.

"The Essence-Eating Skull, a mental technique that absorbs and refines the mental energy of others to strengthen one's own?"

A few days later, Xiao Yan returned to Da Kui City and handed a copy of the two secret techniques he had obtained from Hua Gu's Qiankun bag to Lin Dong.

"This mental technique should have reached the Qi level," Lin Dong said with a slightly strange expression after examining the mental technique called the Essence-Eating Skull. "It's somewhat similar to my Spirit Talisman Vortex..."

"It's not very useful to the two of us, but if there are any members of your family who cultivate spiritual power, they might be able to use it."

Xiao Yan curled his lips. Let alone looking down on this Essence-Eating Skull, even if he really did like it, with the spiritual power of them Immortal Talisman Masters, how much spiritual power of others would they need to absorb to improve?

"That Yin Demon Howl... do you have any thoughts on it?" After a pause, Xiao Yan shifted the topic to another mental technique he had obtained from Hua Gu.

Yin Demon Roar is a secret technique that can unleash spiritual power through a peculiar sound wave. It is extremely powerful. Most importantly, according to Yao Lao, Yin Demon Roar is in some ways no weaker than the Heavenly Dragon Roar that Xiao Yan obtained from Canaan Academy. It may even have the potential to completely perfect the Heavenly Dragon Roar through Yin Demon Roar.

"A very useful mental technique," Lin Dong said after thinking for a moment.

“That’s right, a very useful mental technique,” ​​Xiao Yan nodded. “Then, what if I had a superior spiritual martial art based on sound waves, whose highest level was to damage the primordial spirit with sound waves, but because the object it imitated was dead, I couldn’t perfect it?”

"...You mean, the Yin Demon Roar has the potential to perfect that spiritual martial art?" After a moment of stunned silence, Lin Dong understood Xiao Yan's meaning.

"Give it a try?" Xiao Yan smiled and took out the Yin-Yang Dragon Profound Pill, looking at Lin Dong and asking.

"...Give it a try!" After hesitating for a moment, Lin Dong gritted his teeth and agreed.

Upon hearing that there was a chance that an unfinished superior spiritual martial art could be perfected through the Yin Demon Roar, Lin Dong almost instantly thought that if he could perfect that spiritual martial art, it might become a heavenly martial art.

It was precisely because of this that Lin Dong joined Xiao Yan's plan to perfect the Heavenly Dragon's Roar without much thought. He also took the Yin-Yang Dragon Profound Pill that Xiao Yan had given him, and with Xiao Yan's assistance, he transferred the thin dragon energy from the Yin-Yang Dragon Profound Pill into himself.

After the dragon energy grafting was completed, the two hurriedly left the Great Puppet City and found a suitable location on the Great Wilderness Ancient Plain to begin cultivating and "perfecting" the Heavenly Dragon Roar.

During this time, Xiao Diao also complained that the Dragon Roar did not seem to be a martial art created by imitating the Dragon Clan, but in the end it was a Dragon Roar. Furthermore, the dragon energy grafted onto Lin Dong's body through the Yin-Yang Dragon Profound Pill was extremely authentic. Therefore, under this contradictory situation, Xiao Diao became depressed for a while.

Several months passed quickly. During this time, the Martial Alliance did conduct a transaction with Xiao Yan through the Martial Shrine. Although they only offered medicinal herbs that were three to five hundred years old, it was enough to ensure that Xiao Yan only needed one more herb to process the Myriad Beast Fruit.

As for the improvement of Tianlongyin...

It can only be said that neither Xiao Yan nor Lin Dong had a deep enough understanding of spiritual martial arts. Although they had completely mastered the three realms of the Heavenly Dragon Roar, they were completely baffled by the legendary highest level described by the creator—the level of damaging the primordial spirit through sound waves. They occasionally touched upon it, but they were unable to find the pattern and completely master it.

Besides that, perhaps the most noteworthy achievement is that Lin Dong, through tireless efforts and relying on the Mind-Nourishing Futon's technique of fusing Yuan Power and Spiritual Power, finally mastered "Martial Soul Fusion."

Chapter 238 Ancient Stele and Evil Qi

The Great Wilderness Ancient Stele, the oldest relic in the Great Wilderness Prefecture, is like a miracle to many, proving the power of sects in ancient times.

Even as time flows and years change, the seal on the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele remains unbroken. The immensely powerful seal leads countless people to believe that even legendary Nirvana Realm experts are powerless against it.

Therefore, whenever the seal of the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele weakens, the Great Wilderness Ancient Plains will welcome countless powerful individuals and forces from all directions.

This is a true gathering of heroes!

Above the sky, Xiao Yan and Lin Dong gazed into the distance, towards the depths of the Great Wilderness Ancient Plain. There, they could sense extremely obscure yet terrifyingly indescribable fluctuations. Under these fluctuations, both of their expressions became somewhat solemn.

"As expected of something left behind by an ancient sect, even after countless years, its domineering aura is still undeniable..." Feeling the fluctuations in the distance, Lin Dong slowly exhaled.

"If this Great Wilderness Ancient Stele hadn't been opened countless times, I would have panicked just from this fluctuation alone," Xiao Yan chuckled dryly.

After all, according to what Yao Lao had said before, he had only ever seen such relics with energy fluctuations of at least Dou Zun even when they were hundreds of miles apart, once when he entered the place where a certain Dou Sheng had passed away.

"Hmm?" Lin Dong looked at Xiao Yan with some surprise.

“My elders have mentioned similar ruins before,” Xiao Yan explained somewhat vaguely, then patted Xiao Yuan beneath him. The latter also flapped its thunder wings and soared into the depths of the ancient plain. “Let’s go in first. Judging from the fluctuations, it might officially open soon.”

'Given the intensity of this fluctuation, I would believe it if you said a Reincarnation Realm expert had perished here.'

As Lin Dong urged Xiao Yan to catch up with Xiao Yan and Xiao Yuan ahead, Xiao Diao muttered something.

'The Realm of Reincarnation?'

Upon hearing Xiao Diao's words, Lin Dong suddenly understood why Xiao Yan had said he was "a little flustered" earlier.

When the two arrived at the depths, the vast plain was already occupied by a dark sea of ​​people. At the forefront of the sea of ​​people were some powerful forces from the Great Wilderness County and various parts of the Great Yan Dynasty. They occupied the best positions and were clearly separated from each other.

However, these forces were clearly not all of them; at least, Lin Dong did not find any members of the four major clans among them.

A massive, ancient stone monument, nearly a thousand feet tall, stands silently in the deepest part of the plain, emanating an aura of ancient vicissitudes.

Ancient, enormous runes permeated the stone tablet, and beneath them, a terrifying aura capable of tearing the sky condensed and surged.

"Is this the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele?"

Gazing at the majestic and magnificent ancient stone tablet, Xiao Yan couldn't help but gasp, his eyes filled with shock. He had never seen such a magnificent relic before.

Xiao Yan's gaze swept carefully across the stone tablet, and suddenly, his pupils contracted slightly, his eyes focusing on a certain spot on the tablet.

"Look over there," Xiao Yan raised his hand, patted Lin Dong's shoulder, and then pointed to a certain spot on the ancient stele, "Are those things... normal?"

Following the direction Xiao Yan pointed, Lin Dong also discovered some tiny black dots on the stone tablet that were barely visible to the naked eye. These dots seemed to be the result of the erosion of time...

"Would the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele, with such a powerful seal, really be like an ordinary boulder, bearing such marks due to the erosion of time?" As if sensing Lin Dong's thoughts, Xiao Yan slowly asked.

? !

Xiao Yan's words exploded in Lin Dong's ears like thunder. At the same time, Lin Dong could feel the mysterious stone talisman in his body vibrating violently, emitting waves.

"Have you seen that thing?"

Reminded by Xiao Yan and Shi Fu, Lin Dong also came to his senses, opened his mouth, and made a dry sound that even he himself found hard to understand.

“I’m not sure if it’s that thing,” Xiao Yan said softly after a brief silence. “When I first saw them, I tried to touch those black dots with my mental power…”

"With just a light touch, I felt an indescribable chill, as if that thing could erase everything in the world. And, coincidentally, I sensed this aura before in the Star Luo Empire..."

Xiao Yan still remembered the name of the monster that had completely corroded the flesh of his right hand, so he would not forget that strange energy that could not be suppressed with Dou Qi.

"The Ghost General?" Lin Dong asked softly.

“At least, they are her kind,” Xiao Yan nodded. “However, the only good news is that, unlike the Ghost Generals, the monsters here have been completely sealed under the Great Wilderness Ancient Stele. We don’t have to worry about them coming out from below for the next few decades.”

Is this good news?

Lin Dong remained silent. Perhaps this was indeed good news for the super sects far away. After all, what was sealed was only a monster equivalent to the level of a Rune Master. Under the erosion of time, even if it escaped from the seal, it could not be at its peak. Dealing with it would be a very simple matter.

But what about Lin Dong, and his family members living in the Great Yan Dynasty?

While Lin Dong remained silent and Xiao Yan stared intently at the hundreds of black dots on the stone tablet, the forces of the three strongest powers in the Great Wilderness Prefecture had also assembled.

Looking around, the major forces that did not see Xiao Yan and Lin Dong in the very center quietly found quiet spots and waited for the arrival of the last and strongest forces of the Great Yan Dynasty.

call out!

Before long, from behind the crowd, the sound of wind breaking rang out, and a large number of light and shadow flew in from the low sky, causing a series of exclamations.

"They are from the four major clans!"

Hearing such a call, Lin Dong finally snapped out of his silence, lowered his head, and looked at the approaching figure below—

A streak of rainbow light flashed by, and under the gaze of countless eyes, hovering low in the air, at the very front was a disc emitting a red glow. On the disc were many figures, but the genius of the Lin clan, who had once been famous throughout the Great Yan Dynasty, was not among them.

"I heard Lin Langtian is dead?" Not far from the Lin clan's ancestral hall, Wu Ci, carrying an iron rod, laughed.

"It is said that he died outside the tomb of a Nirvana Realm expert. The specific details have been completely sealed off by the Lin Clan. All we know is that after that, the Lin Clan promoted a new generation of the strongest prodigy." Mu Qianqian smiled faintly. As for the four major clans, their Great Demon Sect has never cared about them.
