Chapter 530: Chapter 322: Void Spirit_2
Xu Yang, by this time, had attained the Cultivation of Deity Transformation. By utilizing the Solar Avatar division technique and the aid of skill characteristics, he could at most create two “Solar Avatars” to control the Mecha. Together with his original avatar, he could barely achieve the effect of “One Breath Becomes the Three Pure Ones.”
Only in this way could he simultaneously command the “Broken War God” to engage in battles within the Void Spirit Cave Heaven while also coordinating the White Jade Capital to head north for reinforcements.
Now, the White Jade Capital was controlled by one of his Solar Avatars, and all its residents had been evacuated to a hidden spirit island in the Southern Sea.
This measure was taken as a precaution against both the Five Elements Immortal Sect and the Void Spirit Lord.
Thus, three months passed. The struggle over the Five Elements Immortal Mansion had settled into dust, but Dustless and others still did not make their final appearance, which almost certainly meant that the Five Elements Immortal Sect couldn’t find him, nor could they locate the whereabouts of the Five Elements Immortal Root.
Having eliminated the greatest threat posed by the Five Elements Immortal Sect, what followed would be simpler.
With a thought from Xu Yang, he arrived at the core of the Mecha, the White Jade Capital, Kylin Palace.
The Five Palaces of White Jade encircled the Kylin at the center, bringing together the Momentum of the Five Elements to seal off the heavens and the fabric of space-time.
Xu Yang appeared in the palace to find a stone stele covered in cracks, its radiance dull and seemingly at the brink of extinction, about to flicker out like a candle’s last flame.
It was none other than the Void Stele!
This low-grade Immortal Artifact belonging to the void realm was on the verge of destruction, at any moment it could shatter.
This was the price Xu Yang had paid.
A single Immortal Spirit Mecha, billions of void magic artifacts, and a vast reserve of Spirit Stones were now reduced to just this nearly destroyed Void Stele.
One can only say that Mahayana True Immortals are indeed worthy of their name, and the Immortal Sect Holy Land is truly a Holy Land.
This battle had given Xu Yang a much clearer and more concrete understanding of his own strength.
With the Broken War God or a Middle-Grade Fairy Spirit Mech Armor like the White Jade Capital, he could battle beyond his realm, dominating the Return to Void and being invincible; even Immortal Sect heirs like Zhou Tian Shu would not be his match within the Return to Void Realm.
Against Integration cultivators from side paths, such as Old Ghost Jiang from Mysterious Yin Island, he could hold his own and come to a draw.
Even when facing Integration Great Powers of the righteous Path and Sacred Places like the Immortal Gates, or Saint Lords such as the Myterious Sprit Lord Zhong Yin Zhi who stood at the pinnacle of power, he could still retreat unscathed, at worst paying a small price.
As for the Mahayana…
The power of Mahayana was terrifying. In particular, those from the Sacred Places and Immortal Sects had their Great Arrays and numerous means and astonishing Divine Powers.
This time, if Dustless had not had reservations and had not gone all out, as well as not fully understanding Xu Yang’s abilities and thus not been able to target him completely, then even if Xu Yang had overloaded his Immortal Spirit Mech Armor and destroyed billions of magic artifacts, escaping alive would have been extremely difficult.
This was the capability of a Mahayana from the Immortal Sect!
In his current state, he was no match for them, not at all.
Not to mention Mahayana, even Saint Lords from Immortal Sects could defeat him with their peak Integration strength.
In this world, he had still not reached the “invincible” realm; he couldn’t act as unfetteredly as if he were wandering in a dream.
The damage to the Broken War God was the price of taking that risky move.
However, this price was worth it, for it brought returns and gains.
Xu Yang looked at the Void Stele before him, swept it with his sleeve, and lifted the seal.
Suddenly, a five-colored light shone, revealing a Five Elements spirit pool and a withered ancient tree which emerged from within the stele and appeared before him.
Seeing this, Xu Yang made no further move, but instead stood with his hands behind his back and spoke in a cold voice, “Come out.”
“…”
In response to his words, the ancient tree remained silent, offering no reply.
Xu Yang’s expression unchanged, he called out in a cold voice, “Up to now, do you still wish to deceive yourself and others?”
After speaking, he raised his hand and traced out a Talisman with swift and powerful strokes, directing it towards the withered ancient tree.
Instantly…
A five-colored light erupted, dissolved the Talisman, and condensed into a figure, appearing before Xu Yang.
The figure wore a purple cloud crown and a colorful neon robe, held a feather fan, and presented an extraordinary demeanor. However, his form seemed somewhat ethereal—as if truly existing in limbo, neither completely real nor entirely false.
It was…
“Feng Chaoyang, pays respect to the fellow Daoist!”
“Feng Chaoyang?”
Xu Yang’s expression was indifferent as he uncovered the other’s identity, “Void Spirit Lord!”
“The Void Spirit is dead. In this world today, there is only Chaoyang.”
Feng Chaoyang sighed softly, then gave a salute with clasped hands, “Thanks to the fellow Daoist’s rescue. I have nothing with which to repay this kindness, but I am ready to offer the Five Elements Immortal Root with both hands and only ask the fellow Daoist to let this remnant soul of mine go.”
Xu Yang was noncommittal and simply asked, “Did you intentionally release the aura of the Broken Void earlier, allowing me to find the location of your Void Spirit Cave Mansion?”
“Indeed!”
Feng Chaoyang nodded and said, “Previously, fellow daoist faced the Tribulation, refined the Five Elements Immortal Artifact, and built the White Jade Immortal City, which disturbed my slumbering primordial spirit. At that time, I sensed that the fellow daoist was extraordinary and a person who could be trusted, but unfortunately, my primordial spirit was trapped within these Five Elements Immortal Roots, unable to meet you before you broke through the realm. As a result, I have placed you in jeopardy by involving you…”
“Spare me the hypocrisy!”
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted. Xu Yang stood with his hands behind his back, unleashing a chilling intent to kill as he said, “Whatever tricks you have, just use them.”
“…”
These words left Feng Chaoyang in silence, and he finally displayed a wry smile, “Why must you do this, fellow daoist?”
But Xu Yang did not say much. He raised his right hand, his two fingers forming a sword, and began to sketch in the air as if drawing dragons and snakes in the void. He created an extremely intricate talisman, which he directed straight at Feng Chaoyang.
Seeing this, Feng Chaoyang gave a sigh, murmuring, “Why, why, why must you push me to this point…!!!”
With the last word, his tone turned sharp. Feng Chaoyang suddenly looked up, revealing an enraged and fierce face, very different from his previous humble demeanor. His body transformed into a beam of multicolored dawn light, violently shining towards Xu Yang.
Xu Yang was not surprised by this turn of events.
Even though this Void Spirit Monarch had assumed a very low profile, referring to him as a fellow daoist and even proactively offering to present the Five Elements Immortal Roots as a token of gratitude for his rescue, Xu Yang did not believe his nonsense for a second!
This was the Cultivation World, a ruthless Cultivation World that did not prioritize morals or karma, unlike the World of Dao and Law.
Feng Chaoyang had once betrayed his Sect and committed heinous deeds like deceiving his master and annihilating his ancestors just for these Five Elements Immortal Roots. Could you expect him to be grateful and repay a life-saving debt with the Five Elements Immortal Roots?
Stop joking!
Regarding such an individual, whose reputation was already tarnished and who had no credibility left, Xu Yang did not intend to waste time. After extracting the key information, he promptly made his move to eliminate any hidden dangers.
And upon seeing Xu Yang’s actions, Feng Chaoyang also resolutely turned hostile. His primordial spirit transformed into a Five Elements Divine Light, shooting straight towards Xu Yang, instantly traversing the void and abruptly appearing right in front of him.
His knowledge of Xu Yang was limited to the Heavenly Tribulation Refinement thirty years ago, the breakthrough of the Immortal City, and the recent great battle, including spatial shifting and such.
He acknowledged that this person was extraordinary in his methods, and even inconceivably beyond imagination, capable of using a Divinity-Transformation body to cross the Return to Void Tribulation, and even escaping from the hands of his master Dustless, a Mahayana True Immortal. But…
No matter how startling his methods were, or how formidable his strength, there was one insurmountable weakness.
And that was his Cultivation!
Thirty years ago, he had just undergone the Heavenly Tribulation to ascend to the Deity-Transformation Realm.
Even if his progress was rapid and he had achieved another breakthrough in thirty years, he would be at most at the Return to Void Realm.
This was his greatest weakness, his most fatal flaw!
All those breathtaking techniques were external factors, unable to enhance the fundamental.
For cultivators, what is fundamental?
It is the Primordial Spirit.
From Qi Refinement to Foundation Establishment, from Golden Core to Nascent Soul, each step and each realm marked a significant transformation, and the painstakingly cultivated rebirth of the Primordial Spirit is the essence of the Immortal Path.
This man was only at the Return to Void cultivation level, his Purple Mansion Primordial Spirit had not undergone transformation, how could he stand against the Innate Primordial Spirit of an Integration Great Power like him?
Therefore, the Primordial Spirit enters the body, seizing the flesh!
By seizing this person, he would not only gain a body to restart the path of cultivation but also access the myriad secrets he possessed, including the miraculous and divine method of Equipment Refinement. Coupled with his own painstakingly nurtured seeds of heaven and earth, his future path would be bound to be…
“Bang!!!”
In that instant of thought, the Primordial Spirit entered the body and arrived in a mountainous wilderness.
“Hmm!?”
In the midst of the wilderness, amidst the emptiness, Feng Chaoyang’s Primordial Spirit took shape, his brows deeply furrowed.
Is this his sea of consciousness?
Why is there no trace of the Primordial Spirit?
Could it be…
“Roar!!!”
Amidst his shock and suspicion, he suddenly heard a roar that pierced the Ninth Heaven.
“!!!!!!!”
Feng Chaoyang’s pupils contracted, and he abruptly looked up, to see the Ninth Heaven shaking, the wind and thunder retreating in fear, as an Ancient Green Bull, pulling the expanse of the heavenly domain, came charging fiercely towards him.
