Chapter 959: Comprehensive Suppression, Essence Blood of the Wild Beast

Amidst the rolling yellow wind.

A figure drifted about, elusive and hard to pin down.

But his gaze was fixed intently on the distant battlefield.

"Among the seven, the three Great Cultivators are the most troublesome. The other four, whether it's Bai Xuanjun, Purple-robed Marquis, or the Sword Concealer Sect Master, are all renowned experts."

"Only this one is a stranger, with no known background."

"From the series of actions when he entered the Yin-Yang Realm, it’s clear this person excels in Body Refinement and expended a great deal of energy in opening the replica Death Gate."

"Body Refiner, expending a great deal of energy..."

The Second Ancestor Jinshi mused over these points, gradually growing more confident.

Taking this person down first should be the easiest.

Later, he could focus his efforts and summon more Golden Dragon Lions to deal with the others.

However, as he watched, the situation within the Yellow Wind Array began to feel off.

"This person seems to be too strong!"

...

The Death-dealing Golden Feather is primarily a piercing weapon.

But in Luo Chen’s hands, it was wielded like a long whip, sharp and deadly.

With each crack, it moved like a dragon, rustling through the air.

Every strike left a crack on a Golden Dragon Lion’s body, and as the golden feather retracted, the Golden Dragon Lion would shatter like porcelain.

Two figures danced across the earth, their movements fluid and graceful. No matter how many Golden Dragon Lions there were, they could not harm Luo Chen in the slightest.

While wielding the Death-dealing Golden Feather, Luo Chen remained fully alert, constantly monitoring his surroundings.

His Divine Sense subtly spread out, capturing every moment.

"Hiding so well, are you?"

Luo Chen sensed the increasing number of Golden Dragon Lions and understood the hidden enemy’s plan.

These Golden Dragon Lion statues, after being summoned, were not as weak as they appeared.

Their hundred-foot stature alone was a clear indicator!

In the demon race, except for special breeds, the size of the body often roughly indicated the realm of cultivation.

A hundred feet was the standard for the Fourth Rank.

These Golden Dragon Lions lacked intelligence and had no magical treasures to rely on, relying solely on their physical strength. Thus, they were not a significant threat.

However, even if they did not match the Fourth Rank Demon Emperor, their current explosive power was comparable to a late Third Rank.

In a short incense stick’s time, the number of Golden Dragon Lions had already surpassed a hundred, seemingly endless.

Any Yuan Yin cultivator would have their magic power drained by such relentless consumption.

For a Body Refiner, with limited means, the direct combat would result in even greater depletion.

The hidden enemy had calculated this well.

He intended to wear down Luo Chen’s strength.

But he had miscalculated one thing!

Luo Chen’s strength far exceeded these Golden Dragon Lions!

A casual strike could destroy them; how could they possibly hinder Luo Chen’s progress?

However!

Luo Chen suddenly reined in his golden feather, letting it drift backward as if his strength was waning.

When the number of surrounding Golden Dragon Lions reached a dozen, he advanced instead of retreating, striking suddenly.

His hands formed seals, and the nascent soul magic power that had been sealed for days gushed forth.

A lifelike phoenix emerged from his back, letting out a loud, clear cry.

Its wings trembled, shedding a shower of sparks.

Then...

"Go!"

His fingers formed a sword, and he released the command.

The phoenix circled above Luo Chen’s head once before swooping down to the earth, targeting the dozen Golden Dragon Lions.

Wherever it passed, the previously formidable Golden Dragon Lions instantly turned to ash.

But it was not over yet.

The phoenix, carrying boundless might, began to sweep around Luo Chen in a frenzy, centered on him.

Even the rolling yellow wind could not suppress the phoenix’s actions.

Ten miles, twenty miles, thirty miles...

By the time it reached a hundred-mile radius, the phoenix finally dissipated.

But it was enough!

"Little rat, hiding your head and showing your tail long enough, haven’t you?"

In the air, a golden feather suddenly stabbed out.

Clang!

The Second Ancestor Jinshi stumbled out, his true form revealed.

His face was filled with fear, clearly not expecting such a move.

"Is it a spell? Or a divine technique?"

The phoenix’s power was so overwhelming that it even suppressed the Yellow Wind Array set up by Master Litian.

It not only shocked him but also forced him out.

What shocked him even more was that an existence capable of such a heaven-defying move could not be a simple Body Refiner.

Dual cultivation of magic and body!

The moment this thought surfaced, the Second Ancestor Jinshi understood that the man before him was far more than just a Body Refiner.

He was likely more troublesome than the other three mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators!

"Retreat!"

Without hesitation, he tried to flee into the Yellow Wind Array.

But the man in the distance merely sneered.

"Thinking of running now? Too late!"

Then, with his hands forming seals, he cast a series of restrictions into the void.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

The air emitted eerie sounds, as if something was being frozen or sliced.

Suddenly!

"Seal the ten lands, forbid the hundred miles!"

The endless rolling yellow wind vanished abruptly at this moment.

Not only that, but Jinshi Second Ancestor, who was about to escape into the Yellow Wind Array, found himself as if he had hit an invisible wall.

His body, which was already half-fused into the wind, was forcefully pushed back out.

Jinshi Second Ancestor's expression was one of shock, and he blurted out, "Spatial Restriction Technique!"

"Quite a keen eye."

Luo Chen chuckled, his hands brushing over the Mountainside Crown on his head, and the two Death-dealing Golden Feathers returned to their original positions.

What he had just used was indeed a spatial restriction.

In the past, Luo Chen had not delved much into spatial techniques, or rather, most ordinary True Dharma Masters were not proficient in them.

Even when Tianyezi refined his life-bound treasure, the Primordial Cauldron, he had to specially invite Qingshuang to handle the spatial restriction to make up for the shortfall.

Luo Chen's ability to use such techniques so effortlessly was the result of his careful observation and study of numerous natural spatial restrictions during his time in the Realm of Boundaries.

And it was also clear who the hypothetical enemy of this technique was.

As for whether it would work when facing that person, Luo Chen was not yet certain.

But for now, at least, this nascent soul ancestor of the Jinshi Empire had no immediate countermeasure.

With a calm demeanor, Luo Chen walked step by step toward the other, his eyes emitting a mysterious glow.

"Name!"

Jinshi Second Ancestor swallowed hard and instinctively replied, "Kuang Nanzi, Second Ancestor of the Jinshi Empire, from the Life and Death Sect."

"Since you are a cultivator of the Life and Death Sect, why are you hiding in this realm?"

Kuang Nanzi answered, "An elder in our sect encountered a cultivation mishap, the Blessing Parasite went out of control, causing the Qi Ocean to sink, turning fortune into disaster."

"What secret does this realm hold?"

Kuang Nanzi replied without hesitation, "This is the place where Ancestor Yin-Yang fell, containing a large number of his research achievements in the art of parasites, as well as countless powerful beings that have undergone mutations. The Yang World was established to suppress the powerful beings in the Netherworld."

"Why did you attack me?"

"Divide and conquer, one by one..."

Before he could finish, Kuang Nanzi's body suddenly trembled, and he revealed a look of terror.

"Illusionary Technique!"

Luo Chen, who was already within ten paces, grunted and a faint flush of red appeared on his face.

He exhaled a breath of turbid air and praised, "Truly worthy of a disciple of the holy land, to break free from my Mirage Spell in such a short time."

Seeing this, Kuang Nanzi's fear grew even more.

This person was not only a dual cultivator of both dharma and body, but also possessed an unfathomable spirit foundation.

He had unconsciously used an illusionary technique during the moment of shock, making his opponent fall for it.

The phrase "worthy of a disciple of the holy land" was both a compliment to him and, in a way, a compliment to Luo Chen himself.

For even a disciple of the holy land to fall for it without realizing it, it showed that not only was his spirit foundation powerful, but his mastery of illusionary techniques was also unparalleled.

Especially!

After breaking free from the illusion, the backlash was immense, yet he easily suppressed it.

This revealed just a fraction of his formidable strength.

Such an existence was likely not only above the Purple-robed Marquis, Bai Xuanjun, and the Sword Concealer Sect Master, but also on par with Master Litian and the other three.

No!

Even those three would not have made him this desperate.

As Luo Chen approached, Kuang Nanzi's fear grew uncontrollable, and he instinctively took a step back.

"Misunderstanding!"

"It's all a misunderstanding!"

Luo Chen smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping over the surroundings, pausing briefly on the red spots on the ground before returning his attention to Kuang Nanzi. "Gathering so many Golden Dragon Lions to ambush me, and you call this a misunderstanding?"

Kuang Nanzi quickly waved his hands, "As long as you, the great man, don't hold a grudge against a small one, then it's all a misunderstanding."

"Give me a reason to let it go", Luo Chen continued his steady pace forward.

Kuang Nanzi, restrained by the spatial restriction, could no longer retreat.

He swallowed hard and said with a show of bravado, "If we fight to the death, even if I die, you won't be unscathed."

As he spoke, he raised a crystal ball-like object.

"This is the crystal core of the Ancient Wild Beast Golden Dragon Lion, controlling the Golden Dragon Lion statues within a ten-thousand-mile radius. If you force me, I will destroy it, and then thousands of Golden Dragon Lions will roar in, and under the suppression of the Yellow Wind Array, you will not be able to escape unharmed!"

Luo Chen stopped in his tracks.

He rubbed his chin thoughtfully and said, "What you say has some... merit, but just these wastes?"

Suddenly, Luo Chen moved in an instant.

His body was like a bolt of lightning, flashing past.

Appearing behind the other, he struck with a palm.

Boom!

The afterimage dissipated, and Kuang Nanzi appeared on the other side.

He was both shocked and angry, "Despicable!"

Then, he could not control the spurt of blood that erupted from his mouth.

Even though he had dodged the strike, he was still grazed by the palm wind.

Just that slight touch was enough to break through his protective aura, causing damage to his physical body.

Once a Qi Cultivator was drawn into close combat by a Body Refiner, the consequences were always this dire.

Luo Chen slowly raised his right hand and touched his ear.

Whoosh!

A stone staff suddenly appeared in his hand, tightly gripped.

"Earlier, when you had the golden dragon lions surround and attack me, did you ever think about the word 'dishonesty'?"

Kuang Nanzi was both ashamed and angry, but in the face of mortal danger, he had no choice but to beg for mercy. "Spare me, and I can tell you about some treasures hidden in the Yang World of the Yin-Yang Realm. You want to pass through the Death Gate to the Netherworld, right? I also know of some opportunities in the Netherworld."

Despite the tempting offers, Luo Chen remained unmoved, casually twirling the staff.

His staff techniques, initially a bit clumsy, gradually became more fluid and proficient.

Seeing that Luo Chen was not swayed, Kuang Nanzi panicked.

"Spare my life, and I will recognize you as my master, serving as your servant!"

"Oh?"

Luo Chen's eyes lit up, and he paused his staff, his lips slightly parted.

Kuang Nanzi felt a glimmer of hope at this.

But the two words that came out of Luo Chen's mouth sent a chill down his spine.

"Too late!"

In the next moment!

A thunderous boom echoed through the air, and Luo Chen suddenly appeared above him, bringing the stone staff down with a mighty strike!

Kuang Nanzi, already on high alert, summoned a stone ink slab in front of him to block the staff.

Not only that, his robe swelled like a balloon, and a protective aura shield enveloped him.

But against Luo Chen's three layers of defense, he only needed one staff strike.

An overwhelming force erupted in an instant!

"Spit!"

Kuang Nanzi was struck as if by lightning, blood spurting from his mouth, and he fell to the ground like a stone.

Luo Chen pursued relentlessly, stepping with the Moon Step, appearing behind him and striking again.

Boom!

One staff strike after another!

Boom!

A flying sword suddenly appeared, but Luo Chen ignored it, allowing it to pierce him.

The sword broke through the outer layer of the Mystic Dust Armor but was deflected by the inner layer.

A True Artifact-level defensive magic treasure was not so easily broken, especially when the attacker was already weakened.

The flying sword's attack was ineffective, and Kuang Nanzi, while defending with all his might, still struggled desperately, blood trickling from the corners of his mouth. He opened his mouth and spat out a stream of light.

But before the light could reach Luo Chen, it was incinerated by a sudden burst of fire.

Boom!

Boom!

The Heavenly Staff continued to rain down on Kuang Nanzi, each strike weakening him further.

When the stone ink slab was shattered and his robes were torn to shreds, Kuang Nanzi's eyes filled with despair, and then madness!

"You won't let me live, so you won't have it easy either!"

His initially weak aura suddenly surged.

He intended to self-destruct his nascent soul!

Luo Chen suddenly stopped, standing in the air.

"Friend Daoist, there's no need for that."

Kuang Nanzi was stunned. Was the other side afraid of a desperate man?

But in the next moment, he saw five streams of light appear from different angles, piercing through his protective aura and entering his body.

In an instant, he tried to mobilize his magic power, but he couldn't.

"What is this?"

"Five Elements Law Suppressing Cones!"

Luo Chen answered his last question, then brought the staff down, smashing him into a pile of flesh and bone.

Even his nascent soul was unable to escape, shattering instantly.

A surge of spiritual energy erupted, forming a storm of spiritual qi.

Luo Chen stood in the midst of it, summoning several items with a wave of his hand.

Kuang Nanzi was not the easiest Yuan Yin cultivation practitioner Luo Chen had killed.

But he was the one Luo Chen had completely dominated from start to finish, leaving him with no chance to fight back.

"Just a mid-stage nascent soul realm."

Luo Chen shook his head, shrinking the Heavenly Staff into a white needle that disappeared into his ear.

Then he walked out of the spiritual qi storm with a casual air.

He didn't leave immediately but casually summoned the red pools on the ground.

There weren't many, and each golden dragon lion statue had left only a palm-sized puddle.

After removing the dirt and sand, Luo Chen fell into deep thought.

After a while, he muttered uncertainly, "Could these be diluted wild beast essence blood?"

A memory surfaced in his mind.

He had obtained a Demon-Beast Unity Tree from the Fallen Demon Land, a tree of extremely high quality that was very difficult to cultivate. Even after a hundred years, it had not bloomed or borne fruit.

Sang Jinghe, after extensive research, had said that the tree needed the essence blood of an Ancient Great Beast as nourishment to continue growing.

The blood left by these golden dragon lions, although weak in effect, was actually of high quality, just diluted and then crafted into golden dragon lion statues using special techniques from the Southern Borderlands.

If he collected enough golden dragon lion essence blood, could he use it to cultivate the Demon-Beast Unity Tree?

"It looks like I'll have to delay my meeting with Master Litian and the others."

Luo Chen smiled, and his Divine Sense swept out, instantly destroying the Divine Sense mark left on Kuang Nanzi's storage ring.

Then, the golden dragon lion crystal core appeared before him. (End of Chapter)
