Chapter 279 Shattered Vajra, Purple Sacred Flame

Looking along the golden ribbons of light trailing down from that massive figure.

"That place... seems to be where Great Hero Yan is in seclusion!"

"Could he have made another Breakthrough? Heavens, what kind of talent is this?"

"This... what terrifying Aura, what Realm has Great Hero Yan reached?"

Under the gaze of that golden figure, everyone truly felt their own insignificance, not daring to look up at all.

【Cultivation Technique: Heaven-Changing Earth-Striking Great Art (Shattering Vajra 1/4000000)】

【Experience Points: 1352390】

The Primordial Spirit shone with brilliant golden light, not showing the slightest weakness even after thousands of years.

Sitting cross-legged high in the sky, even the gale winds could not harm it.

Hum!

Just at this moment, Yan Chu suddenly felt a massive suction force coming from above, wanting to pull his Primordial Spirit up.

"Hmm?"

His expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly circulated his Cultivation Technique. The space around his Primordial Spirit became distorted; he used his Divine Sense to directly distort reality, causing ripples to appear in the surrounding space, neutralizing that suction force into nothingness. The Primordial Spirit turned into a streak of golden light and returned to his Sea of Consciousness.

Inside the cave, Yan Chu retracted his Divine Sense into his Sea of Consciousness.

Raising his head, he looked through the layers of mountain walls and saw the black vortex in the high sky slowly dissipating, only then did he feel relieved.

The Heaven-Changing Earth-Striking Great Art had reached the Shattering Vajra level, triggering changes in heaven and earth, forcing him to shatter the Void Realm and leave.

It seemed he could not continue to upgrade this Cultivation Technique for now.

Without reaching the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown level, shattering would inevitably lead to death and the dissipation of his Dao; relying solely on his Indestructible Primordial Spirit might not be enough to withstand the impact of spatial turbulence.

Moreover, he could not abandon his Physical Body.

Wouldn't that mean missing out on a lot of pleasure?

"Next, upgrade the Ten Suns Sacred Fire!"

As Yan Chu's words fell, the Blue Flame level of the Ten Suns Sacred Fire instantly reached Perfection.

With a roar, flames surged out from his body. They did not spread outward, but the invisible heat emitted was enough to make the entire cave begin to melt; all the rocks turned into liquid and began to drip and flow downward.

Within that blue flame, a hint of purple appeared.

【Ten Suns Sacred Fire (Purple Flame 1/5000000)】

【Experience Points: 686290】

The purple flames were sacred and domineering. The terrifying heat burned one pitch-black hole after another in the surrounding space. Spatial currents blew out from the holes, but before they could even touch Yan Chu, they were burned away by the purple flames on the surface of his body.

"What happened again? The mountain collapsed!!"

The Prince of Zhenbei and the others, having just recovered from the pressure of that thousand-foot Primordial Spirit, saw once again that the mountain where Yan Chu was in seclusion was tilting and collapsing.

Collapsing a mountain Peak was something even a Supreme Grandmaster could do, not to mention a Celestial Being.

But the mountain in front of them was not simply collapsing.

They could all feel terrifying heat emanating from within the mountain. Even from over ten miles away, a wave of heat hit their faces; the mountain seemed to have been melted from the inside.

"Right, Old Cui is also in seclusion there; he won't be affected, will he?"

Suddenly, Tian Yu among the guards remembered something and hurriedly spoke up.

"Oh no, that's bad! Quickly go see how Old Cui is!"

The expressions of the others changed, and some immediately set off to rush forward.

Just as they were speaking, a figure leaped through the air from the distance, looking disheveled, covered in dust and rubble. Who else could it be but Cui Yiting?

At this moment, his blood energy was rolling, and the skin on his body was like a cooked red shrimp, his Aura somewhere between the Ninth Realm Peak and a Celestial Being.

It looked like he had refined less than ten percent of the medicinal power of that Flesh Pill.

"Old Cui, how are you?"

Cui Yiting shook his head, his face still showing lingering fear, and clicked his tongue, saying:

"The Aura on Great Hero Yan is too terrifying; I couldn't enter meditation at all."

"Then why don't you refine it here? With the Prince and us guarding you, there won't be any problems."

"Alright!"

Cui Yiting nodded, and without hesitation, sat down beside everyone and began to refine the medicinal power in his body again.

Meanwhile, Li Shuoting, Luo Jin, and the others watched the mountain ahead without blinking.

The entire mountain Peak was now like quicksand, flowing downward right before their eyes, slowly turning into flat ground as time passed.

Yan Chu opened his eyes and retracted the flames swirling around his body.

The suction force around him, which was even stronger than before, slowly disappeared.

With the Ten Suns Sacred Fire reaching the Purple Flame level, the force of the world's rejection against him became even stronger.

"The Physical Body Divine Treasury has been opened!"

With his cultivation advancing greatly again, his Physical Body Divine Treasury opened naturally.

However, the Nine Yang Divine Art focused mainly on Qi Refining and did not have a specialized Physical Body cultivation method.

It only washed the Physical Body with True Yuan, directly increasing the strength of the Physical Body.

Next, he needed to find a way to get a Cultivation Technique specifically for the Physical Body.

In fact, he had obtained a few techniques during this time, but they were all ordinary martial arts. With his current cultivation foundation, a rough glance was enough to reach the Perfection level, and the boost to his strength was almost negligible.

Although Yan Chu had now opened all three Divine Treasuries, his Physical Body Divine Treasury was still somewhat weak, and there was still some distance to go before the three Divine Treasuries reached Perfection and he could Cultivate the Three Flowers at the Top.

"It doesn't matter, there are still so many people in Northern Mang; surely I can obtain a suitable Body Refining Cultivation Technique."

"If the quality isn't enough, I'll make up for it with quantity!"

Yan Chu's eyes became filled with Killing Intent.

Northern Mang Holy Land, at the foot of Chilie Mountain.

Xiao Sidao and Left Worthy King arrived together.

They followed the Fire-Managing Envoy into the belly of the mountain, walking along the pitch-black mountain path deep into the Holy Mountain.

Both men looked somewhat respectful.

In Northern Mang, the ruler on the surface was Khan Luan Di Tianye, but the person with the highest status was undoubtedly the High Priest.

To become Khan, one must obtain the recognition of the High Priest.

In the hearts of everyone in Northern Mang, the High Priest was no different from a god.

He was the envoy sent by the eternal heaven to the human world; his words represented the will of the eternal heaven.

Under a ten-foot-high platform in the belly of the mountain, Xiao Sidao and the other met the High Priest.

He wore a loose white robe, with curly white hair and a thick beard, but his eyes were bright and piercing, like two bright lamps in the pitch-black mountain belly, landing on Xiao Sidao.

"Have you come into contact with that person from the Southern Dynasty?"

"What does he look like?"

"How did he defeat the Incarnation of the Wolf God?"

Upon meeting, the High Priest began his three Soul-searching questions.

Xiao Sidao was stunned; the High Priest seemed to have long known about the death of Huyan Zhuori and the others. He hurriedly recounted every detail of what happened in Youzhou without omission.

"Blue flames..."

The High Priest's eyes flickered, and he opened his palm, on which were two characters outlined in blood color: Purple Fire!

"Reporting to the High Priest, the Khan wants to know where that person from the Southern Dynasty is now? He wants to take action personally to avenge the Southern Court King and the others!"

Left Worthy King bowed and spoke.

The High Priest's expression was uncertain.

After a moment, he slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and said:

"The two of you go back and tell the Khan that that person from the Southern Dynasty is a great enemy, and our Northern Mang will fall because of him."

"As for his location, the will of the eternal heaven tells me that he is currently on his way to the Murong Clan!"

Xiao Sidao and Left Worthy King looked at each other, both seeing the shock in the other's eyes.

Hearing the High Priest's words with their own ears, they finally believed that the person from the Southern Dynasty might really bring a catastrophe to Northern Mang.

Xiao Sidao placed his hand on his chest and bowed:

"High Priest, I wonder if you can come out of the mountain? Help our Northern Mang destroy this person?"

The High Priest waved his hand and shook his head:

"I am only a servant of the eternal heaven in this world, I do not participate in the slaughter of the human world!"

"Besides, I am already old and weak, and have no power to take action again."

Seeing this, Xiao Sidao and the other had no choice but to give up.

Since the High Priest said so, he would definitely not take action. The rest would depend on the Khan.

He was a powerhouse who had opened the Three Divine Treasuries, and now only he was the opponent of that person from the Southern Dynasty.

After Xiao Sidao and the other left, the High Priest pondered for a moment and suddenly said:

"Ashina, pack up our things, we are leaving Chilie Mountain."

"Ah?"

The Fire-Managing Envoy standing behind him bowed and asked in surprise:

"High Priest, where are we going?"

It was no wonder he asked; the High Priest had been sitting in Chilie Mountain for a hundred years without leaving. Why leave now? Could it be because of that person from the Southern Dynasty?

The High Priest raised his head, his gaze piercing through layers of mountain walls, looking further north, where there was a vast sea covered in solid ice.

That was the North Sea, legendary as the place of origin of the eternal heaven.

From the melted rocks, Yan Chu stepped out.

He pointed a finger, and the sky surged with clouds and winds; countless cold rain fell like a downpour, freezing the melting mountain Peak and cooling it rapidly.

With his cultivation at this level, there was no difference between him and a true immortal.

"Great Hero Yan, you have come out of seclusion!"

"Congratulations to Great Hero Yan on your great advancement in cultivation!!"

The Prince of Zhenbei and the others hurriedly paid their respects, their expressions full of both respect and fear.

The feeling Yan Chu gave them now was truly unfathomable.

Under his gaze, their entire bodies felt as if they had been seen through, with no secrets at all.

Yan Chu smiled and nodded, his gaze looking past them into the distance.

After the Heaven-Changing Earth-Striking Great Art reached the Shattering Vajra level, his understanding of this world became deeper.

When he channeled his Primordial Spirit power into his eyes, he could see the circulation of Spiritual Qi in heaven and earth.

On the vast grassland, there were three towering Auras that rushed to the top of the skull; each Aura was a three-colored light, condensing into magnificent flowers above.

One of them was moving rapidly.

That flower was deep in color, its petals spread out, and the Aura circulated on the three-colored petals, about to produce a seed.

"Hmm?"

The High Priest, who was flying through the air, suddenly stopped and turned to look behind him.

"High Priest, what is it?"

Ashina, who was following closely behind him, hurriedly asked upon seeing this.

The High Priest retracted his entire Aura, just like an ordinary white-haired old man; the thousand-foot giant flower high in the sky instantly turned into a streak of light and dissipated, no longer manifesting.

"He actually has such cultivation!"

The High Priest's expression changed, and he stopped lingering, immediately speeding up, turning into a fleeting streak of light and heading towards the Northland.

Yan Chu lost the High Priest's trail, retracted his gaze, and looked at the other two flowers.

One of the three-colored flowers had a faint, pitch-black luster on its surface.

Swish!

West of Northern Mang, a land of bitter cold.

In a range of black mountains where sunlight could not enter all year round, there was a thick, cold baleful Aura surrounding it.

There were palaces in the mountain range. At this moment, in the underground secret room of the central palace, a handsome young man suddenly opened his eyes, and a terrifying Aura spread overwhelmingly, making everyone in the entire mountain range feel as if they were facing a great enemy, trembling with fear.

"Who is it?"

The young man frowned.

He felt a sense of being spied on, but his Divine Sense spread out, covering a thousand miles, yet he did not find any enemy.

No one could hide their figure in front of him without him knowing.

"Could it be..."

Suddenly he remembered something, raised his head, passed through the main hall, penetrated the cold baleful Aura covering the entire mountain range, and saw the huge flower above.

He immediately retracted all his Aura, cutting off the connection with heaven and earth.

The flower dissipated, and the feeling of being spied on disappeared as well.

On this side, Yan Chu lowered his eyelids, and his Primordial Spirit returned to his Sea of Consciousness.

In just this short time, the consumption of his Divine Sense was huge.

Gazing at Qi from ten thousand miles away, this had already surpassed the level of the Divine Treasury.

In this world, there should be other people like him.

At least the High Priest from just now should be like that; otherwise, the other party would not have been so far away and yet locked eyes with him.

That clearly meant he had been discovered.

Thinking of this, Yan Chu hurriedly closed all his acupoints, completely retracting his own Aura.

Even every breath he exhaled lingered in front of him until his Aura dissipated before dissolving into the air.

In this way, others would not be able to spy on him.

"Yan Chu?"

Luo Jin saw Yan Chu staring blankly and couldn't help but call out to him softly.

Yan Chu came back to his senses and looked at Luo Jin.

With this look, he saw directly through her beautiful, smooth forehead, directly seeing the Primordial Spirit hidden deep in the Niwan Palace.

That Primordial Spirit's robes fluttered, ethereal and fairy-like.

Looking down from the forehead, every blood vessel, every inch of skin was undisguised in Yan Chu's eyes, and he could even see her circulation route.

He saw the Qi Sea Divine Treasury opened in her body, spurting out endless True Yuan.

"What are you looking at?!"

Luo Jin shouted in shame and anger, hurriedly taking two steps back, her beautiful eyes spitting fire as she looked at him.

She only felt that in front of Yan Chu's aggressive gaze, she was as if stripped naked, with no secrets at all.

"Nothing."

Yan Chu chuckled and touched his chin.

He had been keeping himself clean for some time and hadn't rewarded himself properly; he couldn't be like that in the future.

After all, he wasn't some ascetic Cultivator.

"Hmph!"

Luo Jin's pretty face flushed, and she shot Yan Chu an annoyed glance.

Cui Yiting was not far away, fully immersed in his cultivation, unaware of external things.

Yan Chu walked to his side and smiled faintly:

"I will give you a helping hand!"

He pointed a finger, and a surge of hot energy poured into Cui Yiting's brain. The medicinal power hidden in his body was instantly refined rapidly, spreading to his limbs and bones. His heart began to beat powerfully, pumping out countless rich blood.

After a moment, a massive Aura rose from Cui Yiting's body.

This Aura made the other guards' expressions change drastically, filled with awe and envy.

They could clearly see rich blood light emitting from Cui Yiting's body, turning into a towering pillar of blood, rushing into the sky, dyeing the entire sky blood-red.

The Physical Body Divine Treasury, it was done!
