Chapter 476: Destroying Ancient Treasures, Refining the Tenth Order Qing Luan Spirit
Chapter 476: Destroying Ancient Treasures, Refining the Tenth Order Qing Luan Spirit
Just as Chu Ning summoned the Xuan Bing Yan and the Dimai Spirit Fire, the Yellow Wind Flag struck heavily on the periphery of the spirit light that was wrapped around it!
Even though the Spirit Light Ruyi had been refined by a late Nascent Soul stage cultivator into a natal magic treasure, under such a heavy blow, the emerald glow that enveloped the ruyi scepter quickly dissipated.
After all, regardless of the power of a magic treasure, it is related not only to the inherent power of the treasure itself but also to the cultivator who wields it.
If the user's cultivation and magical powers are insufficient, even a potent treasure may not be able to display its full might.
As a late Nascent Soul stage cultivator, Cheng Qingmao possessed more than enough cultivation and magical powers.
However, having just sustained injuries, most of his mental focus was occupied in countering Qin Changkong's attacks.
Dividing his attention to manipulate the Spirit Light Ruyi left him with limited spiritual strength.
Consequently, the might of his attack fell short of the Yellow Wind Flag's full-powered strike, and the peripheral spirit light of the ruyi scepter was destroyed in one fell swoop.
The emerald green Spirit Light Ruyi was now completely exposed, floating in the air.
If he were facing a cultivator at the mid or early Nascent Soul stage, Chu Ning would have considered forcibly seizing control of the Spirit Light Ruyi for his own use.
After all, this ancient treasure was indeed quite powerful.
However, at this moment, Chu Ning had no such intentions.
A natal magic treasure refined by a late Nascent Soul stage cultivator was not something that could be easily snatched away.
If he attempted to forcefully control the treasure at this moment, it might backfire and give Cheng Qingmao an opportunity to strike him heavily.
After all, the control that a cultivator's primordial spirit exerted over a magic treasure was incredibly strong.
Therefore, as he watched the Five Elements Spirit Sword and the Seven Spirit Drills also arrive, he did not hesitate at all and immediately launched his attack!
Instantly, the five-colored giant sword and the seven beams of black light successively slammed into the body of the Spirit Light Ruyi!
Although Chu Ning's Five Elements Spirit Sword and Seven Spirit Drills were not ancient treasures, the materials used in their refinement were all rare and extraordinary.
The Five Elements Spirit Sword was infused with a large amount of ancient materials like black Star Iron, while the Seven Spirit Drills were refined from the fingernails of a corpse that had matured for tens of thousands of years.
Moreover, in the refinement of these treasures, Chu Ning had integrated refining techniques from both ancient and modern times.
In his hands, their might was no less than that of ordinary ancient treasures.
At this moment, the Spirit Light Ruyi, devoid of the protective light, could not withstand these successive attacks.
After being struck by the Five Elements Spirit Sword and the Seven Spirit Drills, its spiritual essence diminished significantly.
And on the surface of the ruyi scepter, fine cracks began to appear.
It was evident that under Chu Ning's relentless attacks, the Spirit Light Ruyi had sustained damage.
The Spirit Light Ruyi was Cheng Qingmao's natal magic treasure, connected to his primordial spirit.
Even though the treasure was not completely destroyed, it still caused his expression to change slightly.
He wanted to regain control of the Spirit Light Ruyi, but Qin Changkong seemed to have sensed his intention, and his offensive became even more fierce.
In addition to the relentless attacks of the purple-gold sword light, Qin Changkong was also chanting something, his hands swiftly forming one seal after another.
A profound and mysterious talisman appeared in front of him and shot towards the purple light.
Recognizing the talisman as one of Qin Changkong's killer moves, Cheng Qingmao's face turned solemn.
He quickly cast one spell after another to defend against it, leaving him unable to spare any attention for the Spirit Light Ruyi outside the purple light.
At this moment, Chu Ning's thoughts stirred, and he recalled his three natal magic treasures.
At the same time, he waved his hands, and the blue-green ice flowers and red-purple flames flew out, landing on the emerald green ruyi scepter.
The Xuan Bing Yan arrived first, instantly freezing the ruyi scepter into a blue ice sculpture.
It was at this moment that the reddish-purple Earth Vein Spirit Fire reached its target.
Chu Ning hesitated slightly, as the Spirit Light Ruyi was already frozen in ice.
The Earth Vein Spirit Fire had a completely different attribute from the Xuan Bing Yan, and he wondered if the purple ice would melt if he applied the spirit fire now.
"It seems that I've never tried attacking the same object with two types of heavenly fires at the same time."
As this thought crossed Chu Ning's mind, his curiosity grew.
His initial hesitation vanished, and he directed the Earth Vein Spirit Fire onto the Spirit Light Ruyi, which had already been turned into an ice sculpture.
The next moment, something unexpected happened.
"Boom!!"
Accompanied by the flashing of blue, green, red, and purple flames, a deep and muffled explosion sounded.
The Xuan Bing Yan and the Earth Vein Spirit Fire interacted and actually exploded!
Even though Chu Ning was at a distance, he could still feel the powerful impact transmitted from the explosion.
The heavenly and earthly energies in that area instantly became violently turbulent.
What drew even more attention was that the Spirit Light Ruyi, which had been struck by the Five Elements Spirit Sword and the Seven Spirit Drills, creating fine cracks earlier, had now completely disintegrated into motes of green light in the air!
This ancient treasure was directly destroyed by the explosive force of the two heavenly fires!
"Puff!!"
Within the purple cloud disk's purple light shield, Cheng Qingmao's face turned deathly pale, and he uncontrollably spat out a mouthful of essence blood.
A cultivator's natal magic treasure is connected to their primordial spirit, and damage to the treasure also severely harms their essence and energy.
The Spirit Light Ruyi was already a powerful ancient treasure, and Cheng Qingmao had expended countless essence blood to refine it into his natal magic treasure.
Moreover, the refinement process had taken a long time, forging a deep connection between the ancient treasure and his primordial spirit.
Now, with the Spirit Light Ruyi destroyed in such a violent manner, even this late Nascent Soul stage cultivator couldn't help but be affected, sustaining severe damage to his primordial spirit and spitting out essence blood.
"How is this possible? This is an ancient treasure! How could it be destroyed like this?"
Cheng Qingmao had been surprised when the ancient treasure was slightly damaged earlier.
But now, the fact that it could be completely destroyed went beyond his imagination.
Just as Cheng Qingmao spat out a mouthful of essence blood, Qin unleashed a barrage of purple-gold sword lights, piercing through Cheng's body.
At the same time, the secret art of the dharma seal, which had already been activated once before, was unleashed again.
It slammed directly into Cheng Qingmao's body.
The late Nascent Soul stage cultivator from the Heaven's Extreme Alliance suffered consecutive heavy blows, his face turning paler.
Seeing that Qin Changkong was relentlessly pressing his attack, Cheng gritted his teeth and focused on defense once more.
However, this put him at a significant disadvantage.
But Chu Ning paid no heed to any of this.
Because just as the emerald green Spirit Light Ruyi shattered, Chu Ning was astonished to see a cyan shadow appear on it.
"Qing Luan Spirit Soul!"
Chu Ning's eyes glittered with excitement at the sight of the cyan shadow.
Qing Luan was an ancient wood-attribute spirit bird, and its power was no less formidable than that of the Blazing Sun Spirit Bird.
For its spirit soul to be refined into this ancient treasure, it must undoubtedly be the spirit soul of a tenth-order demon beast.
Seeing the unbound Qing Luan spirit soul about to spread its wings and soar away, Chu Ning wasn't about to let it escape.
He rapidly tapped his fingers, shooting out ten columns of water that instantly transformed into ten chains, forming a giant water ball that trapped the cyan shadow within.
In the next moment, Chu Ning's thoughts stirred, and he summoned the Five Elements Spirit Sword once more.
A cyan spirit sword detached itself from the giant sword and shot forward, piercing into the water ball and then into the cyan shadow!
"Screech!"
The Qing Luan spirit soul let out a mournful cry, followed by violent struggles.
The cyan Wood Spirit Sword trembled violently under these struggles, and it seemed about to be shaken loose.
Chu Ning quickly performed a series of intricate hand seals, causing clear cyan rune patterns to appear on the Wood Spirit Sword.
They formed a small, exceedingly profound array.
With the activation of this small array, the Wood Spirit Sword's trembling finally ceased.
Instead, it was the Qing Luan spirit soul that began to tremble uncontrollably.
This tenth-order demon beast spirit soul, devoid of its spiritual intellect, now sensed a powerful devouring force.
"Screech!"
The Qing Luan spirit soul let out another piercing cry.
Although it lacked spiritual intellect, it had been embedded within the ancient treasure for so long, and now that the treasure was destroyed, it had gained its freedom.
How could it be willing to be imprisoned again? Its body shimmered with cyan light as it struggled violently.
However, these struggles were futile against the small array on the Wood Spirit Sword, which exerted a massive devouring force, pulling the cyan shadow towards the sword.
After thirty breaths, the Qing Luan spirit soul began to be devoured and fused with the Wood Spirit Sword.
Another thirty breaths later, the Qing Luan spirit soul had completely vanished.
In the air, there remained only a cyan spirit sword, its radiant cyan light dazzling to behold. Both its spiritual aura and powerful aura had increased significantly.
Chu Ning's heart rejoiced at the sight.
With a slight stir of his thoughts, the cyan Wood Spirit Sword flew back into his hand.
"Brother Xu!!!"
As Chu Ning was about to savor the feeling of the cyan Wood Spirit Sword, his attention was suddenly drawn by a furious shout.
He saw that Cheng Qingmao, trapped within the Purple Cloud Disk, was in a miserable state.
His body was riddled with wounds, and his aura had weakened considerably, clearly indicating severe damage to his vital energy.
Cheng Qingmao's shout was obviously a plea for Xu Zhanyuan to lend assistance.
However, Situ Yuanlian was well aware of the late Nascent Soul stage cultivator from the Heaven's Extreme Alliance's intentions.
Xu Zhanyuan indeed possessed an ancient treasure, but so did Stiru Yuanlian.
He used his treasure to relentlessly engage Xu Zhanyuan, not giving him any opportunity to aid Cheng Qingmao.
Seeing that Cheng Qingmao, a late Nascent Soul stage cultivator, was in danger of perishing, Xu Zhanyuan lost his composure.
"You're all asking to die!!!"
With a furious roar, he wielded his ancient treasure to hold off Stiru Yuanlian, then his figure flashed as he rushed towards the Spirit Azure Alliance's mid-Nascent Soul stage cultivator who had been intermittently interfering from the side.
Xu Zhanyuan had made a resolute and deadly decision, and his actions were swift and decisive, catching everyone off guard.
By the time Stiru Yuanlian and the other cultivator reacted, Xu Zhanyuan was already upon them.
Then, over a dozen exceptionally sharp golden sword lights blasted towards the mid-Nascent Soul stage cultivator.
The middle-aged cultivator from the Azure Spirit Alliance paled in fear and immediately employed defensive spells.
"How dare you!!!"
Stiru Yuanlian also bellowed in rage and fury, swiftly giving chase.
But it was too late.
Xu Zhanyuan, a late Nascent Soul stage cultivator, had made a lethal decision. Though he didn't use his ancient treasure, he employed a secret art he excelled in.
The potent metallic attack directly pierced through the middle-aged cultivator's body.
"Ah!"
The cultivator only had time to let out a painful cry before his Nascent Soul flew out of his body.
The attack had destroyed his physical form.
A cold glint flashed in Xu Zhanyuan's eyes, and he prepared to strike again, seemingly intending to obliterate the middle-aged cultivator's Nascent Soul.
However, Stiru Yuanlian had arrived, and several white light palms blasted towards Xu Zhanyuan.
Simultaneously, the ancient treasure he controlled also rushed towards Xu Zhanyuan.
But at that moment, Xu Zhanyuan's figure flickered, and he retreated.
At the same time, with a wave of his hand, the dark golden short sword ancient treasure he wielded flew out and slashed towards Qin Changkong's Purple Origin Disk!
