406: Chapter 406 The lingering resentment of a Golden Immortal suppresses the entire arena!
"However..." Lu Li felt a secret surge of joy. "Since the door is open, this young master will unceremoniously accept the entirety of the Jade Tripod Golden Immortal's Legacy today!"
The two of them stepped shoulder to shoulder into the brightly glowing gate.
The scene behind the door completely overturned everyone's imagination.
This was not a cramped side hall or some complex maze, but a magnificently resplendent main hall, as vast as a Small World of its own.
The dome of the main hall was embedded with countless star-like gems, and at the very center of the hall stood a thirty-meter-tall three-legged round cauldron, its entire body flowing with purple-gold brilliance.
Around the round cauldron, Immortal Qi swirled and condensed into tangible phantoms of Auspicious Beasts. The sounds of the Great Dao were ceaseless, and the Dao charm was naturally formed.
Directly above that purple-gold round cauldron, two spheres of light floated quietly, emitting a dazzling radiance that made it impossible to look at them directly.
Through the halo of the light spheres, one could vaguely see a purple jade gourd encased in the left one.
The surface of that gourd flowed with the light of immortal Golden Immortal Laws. Even across the Void Realm, one could clearly hear the deafening roars of dragons and tigers coming from within the gourd; it clearly contained a peerless Immortal Pill!
In the right light sphere, a simple and unadorned Jade Slip floated.
Although the Jade Slip was unremarkable, it emitted an aura of Alchemy Dao Laws as deep as an abyss and as vast as the sea.
"It's the legendary golden soul pill that can reshape the Divine Soul of a True Immortal! And... the Jade Slip of the Jade Tripod Golden Immortal's lifelong Alchemy Dao Legacy!"
The Taixuan Immortal Sect Elders who rushed in immediately after saw the two supreme treasures floating in mid-air, and their eyes instantly turned red.
Their breathing was as ragged as broken bellows, and greedy desire instantly drowned their reason.
Those were supreme treasures that led directly to the Golden Immortal Dao! As long as they obtained one, the Sect's strength would surely undergo a world-shaking leap!
However, before these Elders, whose heads were clouded by greed, could make a move...
"Buzz—!"
The purple-gold round cauldron in the center of the hall suddenly vibrated violently without warning, emitting a terrifying hum that could pierce clouds and crack stones!
Immediately after, an illusory yet colossal figure, filled with supreme majesty, slowly rose from the mouth of the round cauldron.
It was an old man wearing a black and white Bagua Daoist robe.
He held a silver-silk fly-whisk, and his face was lean and ancient, but within his half-closed eyes was a supreme majesty that disregarded life and death and looked down upon all living beings.
He merely stood there, and the surrounding Void Realm collapsed inch by inch.
This was precisely a wisp of Origin Divine Thought left behind by the Jade Tripod Golden Immortal before his fall!
"A pack of ants dares to covet this immortal's Dao field! Those who intrude shall die!"
The old man's Divine Thought let out a cold shout like the divine thunder of the Nine Heavens.
He didn't waste any words at all, nor did he show any politeness or appreciation because these people had just solved the Alchemy Dao endgame outside.
"If you want to obtain this immortal's Legacy, then try to withstand this one strike of mine!"
"Golden Tripod Heaven-Suppressing Seal, suppress!"
The old man's Divine Thought suddenly opened its eyes, and his hands formed an ancient hand seal like a lightning bolt.
In an instant, the thirty-meter-tall purple-gold round cauldron soared into the sky and expanded a thousand-fold, turning into a massive golden seal that blotted out the sun and seemed ready to crush the entire hall.
Carrying a terrifying destructive power sufficient to instantly suppress any Perfected Xuan Immortal expert, the golden seal smashed down fiercely upon everyone below like Mount Tai pressing down!
This was a strike containing a trace of true Golden Immortal Laws! Even if it was power fueled only by a remnant Divine Thought, it was absolutely not something these Profound Immortals could block with their Physical Bodies!
"Not good! It's the might of a Golden Immortal! Retreat, quickly!"
The Taixuan Immortal Sect Elders, who were full of greed just a moment ago, were now scared into a state of Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering, their souls nearly departing from their bodies.
Screaming, they frantically burned their Essence Blood one after another, using their trump card life-saving escape techniques to retreat toward the outside of the hall with all their might.
Fairy Linglong's face also turned pale in an instant. Although she was the Holy Maiden of Taixuan and her combat power was comparable to a Half-step Golden Immortal when using all her trump cards, she still felt a sense of deep despair and palpitation in the face of such pure Golden Immortal Law suppression.
Just as she gritted her teeth and prepared to sacrifice the top-tier life-saving trump card personally bestowed by the Taixuan Immortal Sect Master at any cost to forcibly withstand this fatal strike along with Lu Li...
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the hall doors were violently shattered by a surge of violent Devilish Qi!
A figure wrapped in thick black Qi rushed in from outside the hall at an incredible speed, like a bolt of black lightning!
"Hahaha! A bunch of trash! Such a supreme Opportunity belongs to me, Hua Yunfei!"
The newcomer let out a burst of extremely arrogant laughter; it was none other than Hua Yunfei, who had "fled in panic" earlier in the Poison Mist Valley!
He had obviously used a demonic Sect secret technique to conceal his aura and follow everyone all the way.
Seeing the Legacy appear and the scene in chaos, he could no longer suppress the greed in his heart and directly manifested the phantom of his original form behind him—an Immemorial Celestial Wolf as massive as a mountain.
He roared to the sky, unreservedly unleashing his terrifying combat power that was infinitely close to a Half-step Golden Immortal. Instead of retreating, he advanced, actually charging fiercely toward the crashing Golden Tripod Heaven-Suppressing Seal!
"Taiyi Demonic Technique—Celestial Wolf Shattering the Void! Break!"
Hua Yunfei's eyes were blood-red as he threw a punch, and space shattered inch by inch like broken glass.
"Bang—!"
A world-shaking explosion that made everyone's blood boil erupted inside the hall.
However, what was comical was that Hua Yunfei's Half-step Golden Immortal combat power—which he was usually proud of and which was enough to challenge those at higher levels—was truly as laughable as a mantis trying to stop a carriage before that Golden Tripod Heaven-Suppressing Seal wrapped in Golden Immortal Laws.
"Crack—!"
A sharp cracking sound abruptly rang out in the hall.
The Immemorial Celestial Wolf phantom behind Hua Yunfei, which was originally arrogant and possessed overwhelming demonic flames, could not even last for half a breath before the Golden Tripod Heaven-Suppressing Seal. It instantly shattered into a sky full of black flowing light like fragile glass.
"Ah—!"
Hua Yunfei let out a shrill, inhuman scream.
The Half-step Golden Immortal protective Devilish Qi he was so proud of was instantly crushed, and he flew backward like a kite with a broken string in a distorted posture.
"Pfft! Pfft!" In mid-air, he spat out several mouthfuls of dark red blood mixed with fragments of internal organs. Then, with a dull "boom," he smashed heavily against the incredibly hard purple-gold hall wall.
The terrifying impact directly smashed a human-shaped hole several feet deep into the wall. Hua Yunfei was embedded in it like a lump of mud, his bones shattered and his breath as thin as a thread; he had actually been instantly defeated by this one move, left on the verge of death!
This sudden and horrifying turn of events caused everyone in the hall who still harbored thoughts of luck to gasp in unison, a chill rushing from their tailbones straight to their skulls.
