The Great Wild God - Chapter 221
Chapter 221 Azure Origin Sword Formation
Chen Xun wiped the soul mark from Jiang Xingkong’s sword sheath, and with a “clang” sound, the sword sheath suddenly opened.
The five spirit swords were crossed across the sword grid, and a cold light intersected. It was as if a layer of water was floating on the sword sheath. Perhaps it was agile.
Chen Xun saw that there were six sword lattices in the sword sheath. With a thought, he took out the spirit sword that Jiang Xingkong had used with him from his spatial ring.
At this moment, the five spirit swords in the sword sheath and the spirit sword in Chen Xun’s hand began to vibrate at the same time.
Although Chen Xun hadn’t started cultivating the Thunderous Sound Sword Formation yet, he could tell from the six sword formations that Jiang Xingkong was cultivating some sort of sword formation.
In Jiang Xingkong’s bag of holding, there were more than ten silk manuals. There were scenery records and profound dao techniques. Apart from an ancient book called “Azure Origin Sword Technique”, there was also an ancient book called “Azure Origin Sword Solution”, which was written by Jiang Xingkong when he cultivated the Azure Origin Sword Formation.
These six spirit swords were all refined by Jiang Xingkong as sword artifacts of the Azure Origin Sword Formation. The sword body was refined with the formation restrictions of the Azure Origin Sword Formation.
If Chen Xun wanted to use these six Azure Essence Spirit Swords to gather the number of Nine Lightning Sounds Swords, he would need to erase the restriction of the formation on the Azure Essence Spirit Sword and refine the restriction of the Lightning Sound Sword Formation.
This brought Chen Xun a huge problem.
It was not much easier to refine a formation restriction than to refine a new Lightning Sound Spirit Sword from beginning to end on the basis of the Blank Sword.
Stuck at the edge of the volcano cave, Chen Xun flipped through the [Azure Origin Sword Solution] without any problems. Apart from the various insights he had gained from cultivating, Jiang Xingkong also memorized all of his experiences over the years.
Jiang Xingkong had cultivated the Azure Essence Sword Formation for eight years, and he had just reached the Small Perfection Realm. If Chen Xun erased all the restrictions on the six Azure Essence Spirit Swords, it would mean that Jiang Xingkong’s efforts over the past eight years would be in vain.
Chen Xun naturally didn’t feel sorry for Jiang Xingkong’s painstaking efforts. He just thought that if Jiang Xingkong’s soul imprint on the six Azure Origin Spirit Swords was erased and others were allowed to cultivate the Azure Origin Sword Technique again, they would be able to save years of painstaking effort.
And looking at Jiang Xingkong’s notes on the [Qing Yuan Sword Explanation], Jiang Xingkong was the same as Jiang Bin and Jiang Ke. They were all disciples of the Jiang Dynasty’s imperial clan, but they weren’t of the same bloodline as the Marquis of the Origin realm, Jiang Xingshi.
Jiang Xingkong entered the Heaven Origin Realm at the age of thirty-six. He could be said to be outstanding amongst the imperial clan disciples. However, in the imperial clan disciple competition ten years ago, because he did not have any magical artifacts in hand, his cultivation of the Emperor’s Extreme Righteousness Mysterious Scripture was also short. He suffered miserable failures and was ridiculed among the imperial clan disciples.
Only then did he go to the Yuanwu Marquis Manor to seek a powerful magical artifact that he could take advantage of. The condition was that he would serve in the Yuanwu Marquis Manor for ten years.
Eight years ago, when Jiang Xingkong wiped out a group of raiders from the Northwest Region, he accidentally obtained this [Azure Origin Sword Art]. He discovered that the Azure Origin Sword Art was stronger than any of the divine abilities he had cultivated in the past.
Jiang Xingkong had been secretly cultivating the Azure Essence Sword Formation for the past few years, and no one else knew about it.
What he was doing was merely wishing to win the imperial clan disciple competition ten years from now, shocking everyone with a single glance.
Not only did no one else know that he had six Azure Origin Spirit Swords hidden in his bag of holding, Jiang Xingkong even tried to forge and refine the six Azure Origin Spirit Swords from beginning to end.
Chen Xun was confident that the Lightning Sound Sword Technique would not be any weaker than the Azure Essence Sword Technique. As the Lightning Sound Sword Technique matched the Kui Long Yang Refining Technique he cultivated, there was no need for him to cultivate the Azure Essence Sword Technique at Qin Twilight.
However, since no one knew that Jiang Xingkong was secretly cultivating the Azure Essence Sword Technique, Chen Xun didn’t need to destroy the traces.
The Green Origin Sword Technique and a complete set of Green Origin Spirit Swords might not be much less valuable than a Heaven Ranked magical artifact, so there was no need for him to destroy the formation restrictions on the Green Origin Spirit Sword. If he stayed behind, even if he didn’t use it, he could secretly exchange it for a large amount of refining materials and other magical artifacts.
Chen Xun thought that he would be lucky to enter Tu Shan this time, but he didn’t expect that he would be able to replenish everything from Jiang Xingkong.
Chen Xun was planning to cultivate the Thunder Sound Sword Formation, but he hadn’t reached the door yet.
Jiang Xingkong’s comprehension of the many insights he had written in the [Qing Yuan Sword Interpretation] was extremely valuable experience for him in cultivating the Thunder Sound Sword Formation.
Chen Xun put the sword sheaths containing the six Azure Origin Spirit Swords into his spatial ring, then tore off the unrelated parts of the Azure Origin Sword Solution, tossed them into the crater and burned them, leaving behind only the cultivation insights that were attached to the Azure Origin Sword Scripture.
Next, Chen Xun would be able to trace the traces of the pearl silk horse, regardless of whether it was precious or even the storage pouch that was larger than the spatial ring, and he would endure the pain and throw it into the volcano crater …
********************
Chen Xun was also unclear about Chang Xi, Lei Wanhe, and the others’ current situation. After waiting for a long time without any movement, he picked up the Thunder Meteorite Sword and drilled back into the underground cavern.
The underground cavern was as dense as a net of pearls. Chen Xun could only roughly determine the location of the dark river and the volcanic cavern based on the strength of the demonic aura.
Chen Xun carefully touched the underground cavern for a long time, but he couldn’t find an exit. However, if he wanted to return to Snake Valley from the original path, he had to walk back to the giant cavern where the dark river was before he could find a way out.
Chen Xun was certain that it would not be easy for the Heavenly Yao to completely expel the Heavenly Flames from his body.
Would the Heavenly Yao be afraid that the disciples of the various sects would kill a horse-returning spear and change places to treat their injuries?
Chen Xun weighed it over and over again and felt that he had to take a look at the Dark River first no matter what. Otherwise, when the Heavenly Yao’s injuries healed, it would be even more difficult for him to escape from the underground mysterious acupoint.
Chen Xun carefully returned along the original path. Apart from a few puddles of purple and black blood, there weren’t any skeletons left where he had killed Jiang Xingkong.
Chen Xun smiled coldly in his heart. When Jiang Xingkong was so arrogant, he probably didn’t expect that he would be buried in the stomach of the fierce ape. He didn’t even have any residue left, did he?
The broken halberd was still quietly lying there. He hadn’t expected that Jiang Xingkong’s attack would actually shatter the Divine Soul Seal that the Heavenly Yao had attached to the broken halberd.
However, the Heavenly Yao didn’t even have time to take back the broken halberd. Chen Xun was even more certain that the Heavenly Yao should have already moved to another place to treat his injuries.
Chen Xun lifted one end of the broken halberd and weighed ten thousand jin. When he felt that the Heavenly Yao Battle Halberd was intact, wouldn’t it weigh twenty to thirty thousand jin?
How many martial cultivators in the world could compare to the Giant Snake Heavenly Yao in terms of physical strength?
The broken halberd was like gold but not gold, like iron and iron. It was pitch black without light. It must have been refined by the Heavenly Snake Mining Devil Iron in the depths of the Dark River. It would be a pity to abandon it here, but the broken halberd was too long to put into the spatial ring.
Chen Xun thought for a moment and then dragged the broken halberd back to the volcanic cave.
When a group of firefoxes saw Chen Xun dragging the broken halberd back, they were so frightened that they fled in all directions. They could tell that they had suffered from the Heavenly Yao and were extremely afraid of the broken halberd that carried the aura of the Heavenly Yao.
Chen Xun took out the Star Iron Demon’s body from his spatial ring and instantly transformed into a Star Iron Giant that was more than thirty meters tall.
Chen Xun attached the broken halberd to the broken spear held by the Star Iron Giant, but activated the restoration restriction inside the demon body.
After injecting his Spiritual Energy, he saw lightning swirling around the demon body. Soon, a large amount of lightning gathered at the junction of the broken spear and halberd. It was blazing white, so bright that Chen Xun could barely open his eyes …
After the Star Iron Demon recovered completely, the broken halberd still had a crescent-shaped blade that fell to the ground.
Chen Xun put the halberd blade into his spatial ring and saw the Star Iron Demon Wu Chen standing at the entrance of the cave without any light. He thought to himself that it was time for him to find an opportunity to return to the Black Python.
Although the Star Iron Demon Body was repaired with a large amount of Nine Nether Iron and Demon Iron, and it was incomparable to the real Star Secret Iron, Chen Xun believed that there should be only a handful of puppet soldiers in Cloud Continent that were stronger than this Bottle Demon Body.
Old Kui or Chang Zhen’s remnant soul was sent to this bottle of demon body. Within a hundred years, Chen Xun believed that even if a Origin Pill Taoist level expert broke into the Void Origin Secret Hall, Old Kui and Chang Zhen should still be able to resist it.
Chen Xun still wanted to see if the six Soul Essence Battle Souls he refined could drive this bottle of demon body, but he was afraid that it would damage the Soul Essence Battle Soul.
Apart from that set of Azure Essence Spirit Swords, these six Soul Essence Battle Souls could be said to be the greatest harvest of his trip.
Just as he couldn’t make up his mind, the Firefox that had just fled into the cave in horror and disappeared for a long time fled back in panic. Several of the Firefox’s limbs were broken and bones were broken, as if they had been injured by a magical artifact.
Not long after Chen Xun put the Star Iron Demon Body into his spatial ring, a dozen Divine Night Sect disciples rushed in.
“Seniors, please stop!” Chen Xun took out the Thunder Meteorite Sword, sealed off a sword light that was hacking towards the two-tailed cub, and shouted.
However, how could others listen to the orders of one of his outer sect disciples? Several streaks of sword light and sword qi instantly slashed down several other firefoxes. Chen Xun was only able to save the two-tailed cub and the two giant foxes.
Another disciple was unyielding and was about to slash at Chen Xun with his sword, “Who are you to actually protect a demonic creature?”
“Chen Xun, why are you here?” Zhou Yang came out of the cave entrance and was shocked to see Chen Xun alone.
“After Senior Brother Lei Wanhe and Senior Brother Gu Chengzhuo separated, I was chased by dozens of demonic foxes. I have no intention of escaping here. These firefoxes saved my life. Please spare the lives of these three beasts under Elder Zhou’s sword.” Chen Xun bowed to Zhou Yang.
Zhou Yang knew that Chen Xun was highly valued by Chang Xi and had talent in artifact forging. Perhaps he would be used heavily in the sect in the future, so the friendship between the three Firefoxes naturally wouldn’t be denied. He even stared at the disciple who scolded Chen Xun sternly just now.
These ten plus people were all Gu Yangfeng’s inner sect disciples. They didn’t look at Chen Xun in their eyes, but they didn’t dare to pretend to be the artifact forging dean, Elder Zhou Yang.
Chen Xun took out ten more bottles of pills to replenish the other disciples and threw the corpses of the firefoxes they had killed into the volcano crater to burn.
After the two giant foxes ate Chen Xun’s pills, they secretly hated the disciples of the Divine Night Sect. They grinned their teeth and left in their meridians, while the two-tailed cub fox stayed by Chen Xun’s side, refusing to leave no matter what.
There were plenty of spirit birds and spirit beasts at the entrance of the Divine Night Sect, so it wasn’t much for Chen Xun to bring a two-tailed cub back to raise it.
“Elder Zhou, what about Senior Sister Chang Xi and Senior Brother Xia? Did anything happen?” Chen Xun asked Zhou Yang with concern. He was concerned about Chang Xi and wished that Xia Xiangyi would die early and ascend to the heavens early.
“Chang Xi, Xiangyi and the others are fine, but I can’t find a way out. I brought people around to explore the road, and it took me a long time to find this place.” Zhou Yang let out a long sigh. His long grey eyebrows furrowed deeply, and a faint expression of sorrow appeared on his face. He instructed the three disciples to form a team and let them inform Chang Xi, Xia Xiangyi, and the others to move over.
The other places were filled with demonic fiends. Demonic creatures and demonic beasts appeared and disappeared. Only the magma and earth flames here were called demonic creatures’ fear. Moreover, there were no demonic fiends here, so it was convenient for everyone to heal and recuperate and recover their vitality.
If more demons were to arrive, they would be able to set up formations here …
