129: Battle of Daotai, Spiritual Treasure

Shen Mingzhu angrily rebuked, "You're insane! You're completely mad! The Cloud Ripple Sect's tens of thousands of years of foundation are beyond your imagination! Even if you control an Emperor Weapon, you're absolutely no match for the Sect!"

Yan Chen disdainfully said, "So what if the Cloud Ripple Sect is strong? Does it have a Saint Realm expert? Once I obtain the Emperor Weapon, I will be invincible below the Saint Realm. At that time, I will personally attack the Sect's gates, and all of you will have to submit to me."

Shen Mingzhu pointed and said, "Ridiculous! A mere Dao Platform Realm ant actually dares to contend with the Sect. You will definitely regret it!"

Yan Chen curled his lips and said, "Mingzhu, trust me, once I truly hold the Emperor Weapon in my hand, you will understand that there is no falsehood in what I say."

With that, he turned to look at Lin Yuan and coldly said, "Kid, use your life to draw the final stroke on the altar!"

"Stop!"

Stepping in front of the young man, Shen Mingzhu resolutely said, "He is an Inner Sect Disciple of my Cloud Ripple Sect, you cannot touch him!"

Yan Chen grinned and said, "I've even killed a Cloud Ripple Sect Elder, so what's one more Inner Sect Disciple?"

"He's different, he's the Personal Disciple of the Sect Master! If you dare to lay a hand on him, the Cloud Ripple Sect will definitely issue a kill order against you! At that time, even if you flee to the ends of the earth, you won't escape death!"

Sect Master's Disciple!

Yan Chen's expression slightly changed, then he said fiercely, "I've killed so many people from the Cloud Ripple Sect, I've already forged an irreconcilable enmity, so it doesn't matter if I offend a few more!"

With that, he no longer hesitated, holding his spear and charging towards Lin Yuan.

At this moment, one could see the fiery red Dao Platform manifesting behind him, emitting a strong aura of flames, indicating that he intended to get serious!

Shen Mingzhu naturally wouldn't stand idly by. She quickly circulated her cultivation and released her Origin Qi, and an ice-blue Dao Platform appeared, like clear profound ice, with raging flames burning on it, simultaneously exuding ice and fire power, illuminating two colors of light.

Such a wondrous sight made people marvel.

"Let me see what's so outstanding about your Ice Flame Dao Platform!"

Seeing the other party adopt a fighting stance, Yan Chen spoke coldly, mobilizing the power of his Dao Platform. Origin Qi gathered at the tip of his spear, and he thrust it out fiercely!

The Mei Fu summoned a blue longsword and met him with her Origin Qi.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

Sword and spear collided, shattering the surrounding Void Realm, and layers of Qi waves swept out!

This was the battle of Dao Platform Realm experts!

Even the spreading aftermath was terrifying!

"Mingzhu, must you protect this kid?"

During the battle, Yan Chen questioned.

Shen Mingzhu's expression was firm: "He is a Disciple of my Sect. As the Peak Master of a Cloud Ripple Sect peak, I naturally ought to protect him. Moreover, you've killed so many people from my Sect, and I should also avenge them!"

Yan Chen ferociously said, "Since you insist on being my enemy, then don't blame me for being ruthless and disregarding our past relationship!"

"Whoosh!"

He thrust his spear, forcing the opponent back, then conjured a fiery red light wheel, about one meter in diameter, emitting an extremely strong fire attribute aura!

"This is the Burning Sun Wheel, the most precious treasure of my pavilion. Once unleashed, its power is beyond my control. If you stop now, I can still turn enemy into friend with you and search for the Zhan Tian Hammer together."

The man looked at the Mei Fu and made a suggestion.

Shen Mingzhu refused without hesitation: "You're the one who should stop! Surrender and confess your sins now, and I can still ask the Sect Master to lessen your punishment. But if you continue to be stubborn, a dead end awaits you!"

Yan Chen regretfully said, "It's a pity for such a Beautiful Woman to fall here today."

As he spoke, he began to activate the light wheel, his expression lewd as he scrutinized her voluptuous figure, greedily saying, "But it's fine, I will collect your corpse, and then through the art of Possession, let another's Soul occupy your body, and then take you as a Cauldron. This way, your body won't be wasted, hahahaha!"

"You! Utterly shameless!"

Shen Mingzhu was instantly enraged, pointing at him and saying, "I thought you were an upright person, but I never expected you to be so despicable. It's truly disappointing!"

As she spoke, she summoned a red and blue stone tablet and activated it with all her might.

Soon, the stone tablet erupted with astonishing power, and red and blue streams of light shot out!

On the other side, Yan Chen also activated his light wheel, which glowed with a dazzling fiery red light, and simultaneously unleashed a fiery red stream of light!

"Is this the Ice Flame Demonic Tablet? Today, I want to see whether your Demonic Tablet is more powerful, or if my Sun Wheel is superior!"

"Boom!"

The two streams of light collided, fiercely canceling each other out!

"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!"

Intense aftershocks swept out, forcing Lin Yuan to release his Origin Qi to protect himself.

"What powerful might! Are both of these items Ten-Pattern Spiritual Artifacts?"

He couldn't help but ask.

Ao Ling霜 explained, "No, both this stone tablet and the light wheel are Soul Connection Treasures."

"Soul Connection Treasure?"

"Yes, the grade of Treasure Artifacts is above Ten-Pattern Spiritual Artifacts and below King-Tier Emperor Weapons. They have already begun to develop rudimentary sentience. Only when a true Artifact Spirit is fully born can they be considered true King-Tier Emperor Weapons."

"Is that so..."

Lin Yuan nodded slightly. Looking back at the competition in the arena, it had already reached a fever pitch.

"Crack!"

Several long, narrow cracks appeared in the Void Realm, showing the intensity of this battle!

After a prolonged battle, both the man and the Mei Fu's auras had weakened considerably.

With their Dao Platform Realm cultivation, they clearly couldn't sustain the activation of Treasure Artifacts for extended periods.

"If this continues, the Origin Qi in my body will soon be drained..."

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Shen Mingzhu's forehead, her face grew paler, and the light from her Dao Platform behind her was no longer as brilliant as before.

Both she and Yan Chen were at the fifth layer of the Dao Platform Realm, and their Origin Qi reserves were similar.

So, in the end, it would come down to who recovered their Origin Qi faster.

The Mei Fu's thoughts stirred, and she took out several Great Origin Recovery Medicinal Pills from her spatial ring, swallowing them in one go.

As the medicinal power was absorbed, her aura gradually recovered, and her complexion returned to normal.

Yan Chen also took out a Medicinal Pill and consumed it.

The two of them thus relied on external forces to maintain the use of their Soul Connection Treasures.

Soon after, Shen Mingzhu's spiritual sense probed her spatial ring and found that there were no more Medicinal Pills for restoring Origin Qi. Her face immediately sank.

Seeing this, Yan Chen burst into laughter: "Hahahaha! It seems you've run out of Medicinal Pills! Now, just slowly await death!"

Fortunately, he carried many Origin recovery items with him, precisely to deal with unexpected needs.

Shen Mingzhu truly hadn't expected to encounter such a situation.

After all, she was a Dao Platform Realm expert. Within the Sect's territory, no one could suppress her except the Sect Master and a few Grand Elders.

In her opinion, Origin Recovery Medicinal Pills were things she would never need, so she hadn't prepared any.

Who would have thought they would actually come in handy?

"Nephew-Disciple, do you have any Medicinal Pills or treasures for restoring Origin Qi? Lend them to me first. I'll repay you double when we return to the Sect!"

In her urgency, she quickly transmitted her voice to the young man.

Lin Yuan hesitated for a moment, then took out an Origin Stone and threw it to her.

Shen Mingzhu reached out and took it. Upon seeing the item, she looked puzzled and said, "Nephew-Disciple, what do you mean by this?"
