158: Chapter 158 Who will save the Yuan Cult?

The Black-Green Hammer instantly transformed into a burly man, looking absolutely wretched. With messy, yellowish curled hair, eyes that were mere slits, and a mouthful of yellow teeth, he almost made Zhou Yan unable to resist putting him down humanely.

"You are too ugly in this human form; you had better speak in your true form."

Having passed the Tribulation Crossing Stage, she was now a Human Immortal. In the small Qingling Realm, Zhou Yan could basically make her words become Law. When she told the Black-Green Hammer to speak in its true form, the burly man instantly reverted to his hammer state.

"Please allow me to explain, Human Immortal Sister," the Black-Green Hammer said, almost fawningly. "I am an Immortal Artifact, so naturally, I still want to be an Immortal Artifact. It is just that the Qingling Immortal placed an Immortal Curse on me, which is why I had to protect the Yuan Sect against my will. If Human Immortal Sister can remove the Immortal Curse, then this Yuan Sect will naturally have nothing to do with me."

"Oh! Is that so? If it were any other Immortal Curse, I truly would not be able to break it, but I happen to know how to break this one. However, why should I help you?"

Hearing Zhou Yan say she could break the Immortal Curse, the previously lackadaisical Black-Green Hammer instantly straightened up. With a sudden burst of movement, it appeared before Zhou Yan, the hammer nearly smashing into her nose. "Is what Human Immortal Sister said true?"

Not far away, the Spirit Race's attacks were becoming weaker and weaker because their Top-Grade Spirit Stones were being consumed too quickly, forcing them to slow down their rhythm. "If you break the Immortal Curse, I will immediately help you break the mountain-protecting Formation; no one understands the Yuan Sect's mountain-protecting Formation better than I do."

Zhou Yan frowned. The fall of Tian Not-Allowing had already greatly weakened the Yuan Sect's Aura. Although this mountain-protecting Formation was strong, it could be broken through with grinding effort. Unfortunately, what the Spirit Race lacked right now was time. Thinking of this, Zhou Yan no longer hesitated. After becoming a Human Immortal, this was the first time she exerted her full strength.

"With Heaven and Earth as the contract, the Sun and Moon as the guide, borrowing the Law, it shall emerge as destined!"

"I borrow the spring breeze, and return with a garden full of flowers."

"I borrow the thunderous power, and return with the cleansing of the universe."

"I borrow the shape of mountains and rivers, and return by standing tall to the heavens."

"I borrow the momentum of flowing water, and return with endless continuity."

"Borrowing and returning, Karma cycles, nine out and thirteen in, repaying with interest!"

"With the universe as witness, Yin and Yang as proof, what is borrowed today shall all become my Dao!"

"Borrowing Law becomes the rule, all Laws return to the source!"

"Borrow the Immortal Curse!"

Streaks of black and green color slowly peeled off the Black-Green Hammer, falling into Zhou Yan's hand to form a Medicinal Pill covered in mysterious characters. Having lost the constraints of the Immortal Curse, the Black-Green Hammer suddenly erupted with dazzling golden light, and a golden Dragon shadow shot up into the sky.

"Hahaha! Thirty thousand years! Old Ancestor has finally escaped. That female Immortal, once Old Ancestor destroys the Yuan Sect, I will properly repay your life-saving grace. Old Ancestor can fight and charge, I am extremely reliable, I will definitely make you satisfied."

Zhou Yan did not speak, only watching as the golden Dragon shadow crashed through the Yuan Sect's mountain-protecting Formation, and countless flying ships and the Spirit Race followed the Dragon shadow into the Yuan Sect's mountain.

When the Yuan Sect's mountain-protecting Formation was broken, Zhao Yi had just successfully achieved a Breakthrough to the Late stage of Mahayana Realm. He did not yet know what had happened to the Yuan Sect and was looking at the System with a worried face, feeling for the first time that having too many experience points could also be trouble.

"System," [Miner: Zhao Yi] [Realm: Late stage of Mahayana Realm (Can be upgraded)] [experience points: 10884 / 800] [Rewards: None] "There are still ten thousand eight hundred experience points left. The cultivation of the Late stage of Mahayana Realm is still not enough to escape from here; it seems I need to continue the Breakthrough."

Now the problem arose: breaking through from the Late stage of Mahayana Realm to the Tribulation Crossing Stage was a major Realm Breakthrough, which logically should bring about a catastrophe. And the Tribulation Crossing Stage itself was about Undergoing Tribulation; being in the Tribulation Crossing Stage meant one could trigger the Heavenly Tribulation at any time. If the two tribulations merged... Zhao Yi shuddered. Wouldn't that be the end of him?

"Damn it! If I'm finished, then I'm finished. I would rather be finished than be pressed here like a monkey. System, give me a cultivation Breakthrough." The experience points were instantly deducted by 800. Boom! Zhao Yi felt nothing, but an explosion sounded out of thin air.

"Eight-thousand-year Immortal Ascension Tribulation? What the heck is that? Why is it eight thousand years later?" Zhao Yi was a bit confused, but the still-open System panel's Realm section caught his attention. [Realm: Early Stage Tribulation Crossing Stage (Can be upgraded)] [experience points: 10084 / 1600]

"The Tribulation Crossing Stage is also divided into Early, Middle, and Late Stages? Damn it, isn't the Tribulation Crossing Stage just about Undergoing Tribulation? It's divided into this too?"

At this moment, the Yuan Sect was already covered in dark clouds. The three parties in the fierce battle all thought it was a change in the weather and didn't take it seriously. Only Zhou Yan frowned. And Zhao Yi was still reckless.

"I still have experience points. Damn it, what am I afraid of? System, upgrade my cultivation again." experience points - 1600, cultivation: Middle Stage Tribulation Crossing Stage.

How should I put it? Zhao Yi felt that there was no difference in cultivation between the Early and Middle Stages of the Tribulation Crossing Stage, and it was even not much different from the Late stage of Mahayana Realm. It was just that the fated Immortal Ascension Tribulation had been moved up from eight thousand years later to two thousand years later.

"Damn it, what is the use of this Tribulation Crossing Stage cultivation? I still cannot escape. I don't believe it! I will use up all the experience points. I will keep breaking through, and I don't believe you can keep suppressing me forever."

Zhao Yi did not notice anything unusual at all. It took seven days to go from the Late stage of Mahayana Realm to the Early Stage of the Tribulation Crossing Stage, and one hour to break through from the Early Stage to the Middle Stage of the Tribulation Crossing Stage, which didn't even amount to a fraction of one thought clear tea. [Realm: Middle Stage Tribulation Crossing Stage (Can be upgraded)] [experience points: 8484 / 3200] "System, upgrade my cultivation again." experience points - 3200, cultivation: Late Stage Tribulation Crossing Stage.

This time Zhao Yi did not wake up immediately. From the Middle Mahayana Stage to the Late Stage of the Tribulation Crossing Stage, he had crossed an entire major Realm. He just stayed there, and dots of golden characters suddenly appeared above Zhao Yi's head, like a bodyguard, floating there and spinning constantly.

At the same time that Zhao Yi was breaking through, the entire Yuan Sect had completely become a purgatory. Countless Yuan Sect Cultivators were wailing. That golden Dragon shadow simply killed gods when it met gods and devils when it met devils. As long as it encountered Yuan Sect Cultivators, regardless of their level of cultivation, regardless of gender or age, it swallowed them all in one gulp. The number of Yuan Sect Cultivators it swallowed as a single Dragon was actually more than the entire Spirit Race had killed.

"You are the Black-Green Hammer, aren't you?" A Yuan Sect Mahayana Cultivator looked at the Dragon shadow, blood and tears streaming from the corners of his eyes. "You have received ten thousand years of offerings from our Yuan Sect, why go this far?"

"Offerings?" The Dragon shadow slapped that Mahayana Cultivator away. "I was originally the Golden Dragon Immortal of Heaven and Earth, free and unconstrained. Just because I ate one person, I was sealed by that damned Qingling Immortal for thirty thousand years."

"Thirty thousand years! Do you know how I got through it? The most hateful thing is that I was driven by you mediocre people for a full thirty thousand years. I had long sworn that if I could escape, I would definitely eat all the Yuan Sect Cultivators. Ah! Eat them all!"

The voice of the Golden Dragon Immortal resounded throughout the entire Yuan Sect, carrying endless hatred, making the Spirit Race members surrounding the Yuan Sect tremble. If the Spirit Race was like this, let alone the many Yuan Sect Cultivators—some with poor Heart-Nature didn't know how many had been scared to death. Even a Body Integration Stage Cultivator like Bai Yuxi was terrified to the core. Bai Dashi had fallen, Tian Not-Allowing had also fallen, and now the destruction of the Yuan Sect was imminent. Thinking of this, Bai Yuxi could not help but feel sorrow from her heart, sobbing, "Who will save the Yuan Sect?"
