The Great Wild God - Chapter 481
Chapter 481 Yi Clan Battle Soul Palace
After the Battle of the Thousand Devil Sand Sea, the Void Origin Palace moved from the cold lake in the lake wasteland to the southern foot of Tianzhu Peak and buried in the earth fire cave.
Afterwards, the Divine Night Haoran Sect built the Demonic Slaughter Palace on the cave. Normally, Crimson Pine would cultivate in seclusion here, but only Crimson Pine, Zhao Chengen, Hu Taiyan, Gu Wentian, Ji Lie, Zuo Qingmu, and the others knew that the Void Origin Palace was hidden under the Demonic Slaughter Palace.
After the Heavenly Flames disappeared, the peak of the Absolute Mountain Range was covered by glaciers.
Apart from the Thousand Devil Sand Sea and the sparks of azure lotus flames, the surrounding mountains were covered in snow.
The several Dao Palaces built by the Divine Night Haoran Sect were hidden within deep valleys. The mountain protection formation blocked the icy Profound Frost Dipper Fiend. The valley was dense and verdant, with long grass flying like the south of the Yangtze River.
Unfortunately, the four sects did not have Heaven and Earth grade mountain protection formations, so they were unable to envelop the entire Tu Mountain.
Ordinary disciples were under the control of the Azure Water School, and the main defense was the Azure Water Armor Guard. The core disciples of the four sects were very few, and only twenty to thirty people remained in the Demon Slaying Palace to cultivate.
After receiving Chen Xun’s talisman, Du Liangyong rushed to Mountain Parasol for the first time to meet Scarlet Pine Child, Ji Lie, and the others.
Although the Slaughter Demon Palace was known as the Dao Palace in the valley, there were actually only a dozen magnificent and simple stone palaces surrounded by a single lecture altar paved with clouds and stones. It was even simpler than a third-or fourth-rate sect’s Dao Palace. No matter what, it was impossible to tell that this was the Dao Palace cultivated by the leaders of the four sects, Crimson Pine.
Master Crimson Pine wore a large robe and stood in front of the lecture altar to welcome everyone. Apart from Hu Taiyan, all the other disciples had already been sent to other Dao Palaces.
Scarlet Pine waved her sleeves and smiled at Chen Xun, “I guess you’ll come back here before you go to Zhou Wushan.”
Chen Xun pointed at Old Kui beside him and spread out his hands. “Old Kui has something to hide. I can only force out the secrets of Void Origin Palace bit by bit.”
“Mr. Kui.” Crimson Pine Child and Hu Taiyan went forward to salute Old Kui.
Kui Long was not only the guardian of the Void Origin Palace. After the fusion of spiritual flesh and blood, his body was initially reconstructed. His cultivation was also above everyone else’s. The Kui Dragon Yang Refining Technique that most of the disciples of the four sects were cultivating was also a Dao Art that Old Kui had comprehended from his own life divine ability. Crimson Pine Child, Hu Taiyan, and Ji Lie all regarded him as their fellow disciples. They did not treat him as such casually as Chen Xun.
At this moment, Old Kui turned into an old man and smiled. He asked Scarlet Pine, “Did you feel anything unusual when you were here?”
“The Heavenly Furnace Secret Realm volcano erupted. When a large amount of Heavenly Flames gathered above the Thousand Devil Sand Sea, something seemed to have awakened in the depths of the cave. However, it only gave me a feeling for a moment. After that, I also went down to the Void Origin Palace and found nothing. I planned to wait for Chen Xun to return from the Heavenly Furnace. I didn’t expect Mr. Kui to know about this matter long ago.”
Old Kui nodded and said, “You can sense his existence. His cultivation has indeed improved greatly. There is hope for the Celestial Realm. The sky fire above the Thousand Devil Sand Sea did not appear for no reason, nor did it disappear for no reason.”
Skyfire would appear in the Thousand Devil Sand Sea because of the eruption of the Heavenly Volcano in the Heavenly Furnace Secret Realm.
Tu Shan was an important spatial node, and was close to the Heavenly Furnace Secret Realm.
A large number of Heavenly Flame Dipper Fiends leaked into the endless void from the Heavenly Furnace Secret Realm. Although they weren’t enough to tear apart the spatial profound wall of Cloud Continent again, there were still quite a few that seeped into Cloud Continent from the sky above Mount Tu’s Absolute Mountain Ridge.
As for the Heavenly Flame Dipper Fiends, they didn’t gather like they used to, forming an abnormality that covered the Tu Mountain with the Heavenly Flame Clouds. Chen Xun guessed that it was most likely absorbed by the Void Origin Palace hidden in the cave at the southern foot of Heavenly Pillar Peak.
Only a limited number of people knew the secrets of the Void Origin Palace. Chen Xun had stayed in the Heavenly Furnace Secret Realm, so it was inconvenient for him to communicate with Crimson Pine through others, so he didn’t care about this matter. However, he also knew that even if Old Kui didn’t tell them some secrets of the Void Origin Palace, he would definitely not harm the four sects.
This time, Mountain Parasol was going to join forces with the Xuandu Sect to eliminate Darkness Ridge. It seemed that Mountain Parasol’s strength had risen to a height that made people look up to him, but Chen Xun knew that Mountain Parasol’s foundation was still very shallow, so he had no choice but to make an idea in the Void Origin Palace.
“So, when the Void Origin Palace fell into Cloud Continent, the artifact spirit wasn’t completely destroyed. It just fell into a long slumber. This time, after absorbing a large amount of Heavenly Flame Dipper Fiends from the Void Origin Palace, it regained consciousness again?” There were no outsiders here, so Chen Xun asked directly.
The top grade Heavenly Artifacts and Pure Yang Dao Artifacts were different from other magical artifacts in that their formation restrictions were extremely complex. They would form a mysterious space similar to a spiritual sea, allowing the primordial spirit of a human, beast, god, and demon to attach themselves to it.
Otherwise, a weak primordial spirit would not be able to escape from the flesh and bones for a long time.
The formation restrictions inside the Pure Yang Dao Weapon were even more profound to the point of breeding spirituality, allowing the primordial spirit refined into it to fuse with the Dao Weapon more thoroughly, and even possessing independent intelligence.
This was the artifact spirit.
Of course, he wouldn’t casually refine his primordial spirit to form an artifact spirit.
In that case, the artifact spirit would be too worthless.
Normally speaking, artifact spirits had to be able to independently control Dao-defending Yang Dao artifacts, and their divine soul cultivation had to be at least at the peak of the Dharma Aspect Realm.
The restrictions within the Void Origin Palace were terrifying to the extreme. Before falling into Cloud Continent, the former owner of the Void Origin Palace would be able to unleash the power of the Void Origin Palace to the extreme through the artifact spirit. Chen Xun guessed that the artifact spirit of the Void Origin Palace would have to be a Desolate Ancient Divine Soul with a Nirvana Realm cultivation.
In the past, Old Kui had always avoided talking about the Tool Spirit, and Chen Xun didn’t ask about it because his cultivation hadn’t reached the level of asking about it.
After fusing with the Immortal Embryo Dao Seed of the Big Dipper Immortal, his second Primordial Spirit Blood Crow would be able to completely fuse with the Profound General Seal and become the artifact spirit of the Profound General Seal. Chen Xun believed that it was time for him to ask about this.
Old Kui smiled mysteriously and said without comment, “You’ve gathered all the people in Mountain Parasol who possess the qualifications to communicate with the Heavenly Classics. Don’t you want everyone to try who is qualified to become the true successor of the Void Origin Palace and dig out the last few secrets of the Void Origin Palace? If you can sell it, I’ll sell it first.”
Everyone laughed heartily, completely unable to imagine that Old Kui was an Ancient Desolate Sacred Beast that had cultivated for tens of thousands of years.
**********************
This was the first time Zhao Chengen, Qianlan, Zuo Qingmu, Du Liangyong, and the others had entered the Void Origin Palace, and they were also shocked by the majestic 100 feet tall palace.
The four relief sculptures were filled with gods and devils. The images of ancient desolate beasts, the roaring Silver-winged Heavenly Tiger, and the flying dragons were all trampled under the feet of Xiantian Gods and Devils and even Chaos Gods and Devils. Everyone stood in the center of the True Yang Palace, as if they were on an endless battlefield of ancient gods and devils. Their intuition was insignificant.
Zuo Qingmu and the others could recognize that the entire hall was made of primeval bronze.
Primordial copper, also known as crimson essence copper, was a companion organism of crimson essence copper. It was a common material for forging top-grade earth-grade magical artifacts. Usually, if a huge crimson essence copper mine was dug up, it could obtain 30,000 to 50,000 kilograms of primordial copper.
Zuo Qingmu secretly felt that the entire palace was probably enough for the Kui Long Pavilion to last for tens of thousands of years.
Chen Xun was not surprised, and he directly brought everyone into the third floor of the Heavenly Origin Palace.
Chen Xun could only directly enter the Heavenly Origin Palace. After that, the fourth to seventh floors of the main hall had to pass through the trial restrictions attached to the Void Origin Palace itself before he could enter.
Chen Xun naturally had the confidence to enter the hall on the fourth floor, but even if he entered the hall on the seventh floor and obtained the final full version of the Profound Origin Bible, it wouldn’t be of much use.
Ji Lie, Zhao Cheng’en, and the others wanted to cultivate the Profound Origin Bible, but they still needed to break through the trial restrictions themselves, proving that they truly had the qualifications to pass on the Void Origin Palace’s dao heritage …
Chen Xun looked at Old Kui and asked, “Shall we open the trial restriction and try it one by one?”
“Ah!” At this moment, an extremely soft sigh came from the depths of the hall. There was boundless clouds and boundless wilderness.
This soft sigh made Chen Xun feel as if he had returned to the moment when the Six-Armed Giant Demon had just brought him into Cloud Continent. When Ancient Immortal Dao Xu leaned out of the void, the feeling he gave him was the same as in the Ancient Desolate Vast Expanse.
Chen Xun was stunned. He had previously speculated that the artifact spirit of the Void Origin Palace should be an Ancient Desolate Divine Soul with a cultivation at the Nirvana Realm, but the boundless Dao Insight revealed by this sigh was truly not inferior to the Ancient Immortal Dao Xu!
Crimson Pine, Ji Lie, Zhao Chengen, Su Tang, Zuo Qingmu, Qianlan, Hu Taiyan, Du Liangyong, and the others felt as if they had been struck by lightning, and they immediately felt the urge to worship.
After this sigh, there was no movement from the depths of the hall, but everyone couldn’t help but hold their breaths.
Everyone knew that Old Kui was communicating with the Ancient Desolate Divine Soul in the depths of the hall through his spiritual will.
After a while, Old Kui withdrew his spiritual will and said to Chen Xun, “Everyone else is waiting here. Follow me into the secret hall …”
“You don’t need to undergo a trial restriction?” Chen Xun asked.
‘”The trial restriction is only to confirm whether everyone has the aptitude to cultivate the True Monarch Dao. Since everyone has the aptitude to cultivate the Heavenly Scripture, we can save this trouble and directly enter the hall on the fourth floor,” Old Kui said. “The hall on the fourth floor actually has nothing. It only means that everyone has the qualifications to cultivate the first level of the Profound Origin Bible.” “You don’t need to cultivate the Profound Origin Bible. In the future, you will become the true guardian of the War Soul Hall of the Yi Clan. The War Soul Hall will naturally follow you in and out. There will be no other restrictions.”
“Yi Clan’s War Soul Hall?” Chen Xun asked in surprise. At this moment, Chang Zhen had said that the Void Origin Palace and their true origins could not be mentioned. Otherwise, even if the major powers of their clans were far away from countless Heaven Realms, they might be able to sense it.
‘”Yes, the palace we are in is a Battle Soul Temple of the Yi Clan,” Old Kui said. “But after leaving this place, everyone must forget about it. It’s best not to even think about the name of the Battle Soul Temple of the Yi Clan.”
Master Crimson Pine and Ji Lie both stood in solemn silence. They could imagine how shocking the secrets behind the Yi Clan’s War Soul Hall and the forces involved were. They naturally didn’t dare to reveal the slightest bit of information.
Old Kui said to Chen Xun, “You forced me to reveal the last secret of the secret hall. Do you feel the pressure now?”
“The dead bird is facing the sky. I have no other merits. I’m just stupid and bold.” Chen Xun laughed heartily. Words can be said generously, But in the past, he was not afraid of Marquis Yuan’s Manor and True Monarch Crimson Brow. In fact, he had experienced the great battle between Dao Xu and the Six-Armed Giant Demon, and his Dao Heart was exceptionally strong. However, when he thought about how he would truly shoulder the responsibility of guarding the War Soul Hall of the Yi Clan, he might face enemies of the Brahma Heaven Ancient Immortal Realm or even higher …
