Chapter 522 Taking Action
Beneath the giant white bone claw, the void was completely sealed off.
Countless shimmering points of light appeared all around, intoxicating and soul-stirring...
"Weakening God Pill..."
Fang Qing made a mental assessment and slightly raised his hand.
The boundless light of the Jishui River converges and transforms into surging waves.
Although he still maintains his Divine Pill cultivation, he does so by filling the gaps in the [Ji Water] imagery!
Some of the water-related symbols, specifically the "Ji Water," are missing!
The water-like light swept across the sky, like a vast and boundless ocean, transforming into a chaotic and illusory color that directly 'swallowed' the giant white bone claw.
These are some of the characteristics of the Zhen River as manifested by the Ji River!
Thousands of springs converge to form the vast ocean!
That's why Fang Qing was confident enough to play the role of the missing Golden Core True Monarch of the Canghai Sect!
"A Mahayana cultivator?!"
"Besides the half-dead Ling Xuzi, the human race actually has another Mahayana cultivator?"
The voice of the Ancestor Minggu came.
From the vast, misty void emerged a ten-meter-tall Bone-Patterned Saint Clan member, its ferocious skull bearing eight Saint Marks!
It forms a certain cycle, transforming into more complex and mysterious runes, which then light up one after another.
Swish!
The skeletal figure appeared opposite Fang Qing as if by teleportation, and its large hand descended directly.
Whoosh!
The wind howled, carrying absolute power and a sense of crushing force.
Splash!
But Fang Qing's body exploded into a pool of water. No matter how violent the fist wind was, the water eventually gathered and transformed into his figure.
Upon seeing this, the Bone Ancestor immediately snorted coldly, and a section of his hand bone emerged, transforming into a snow-white bone blade.
This bone blade was several meters long and shimmered with spiritual light. When it was unleashed, the weather changed instantly, with several white bone dragons circling around it, exuding an unfathomable pressure.
"Body cultivation, magic weapons..."
Fang Qing's heart stirred: "Although it also possesses some innate supernatural abilities similar to those of demonic beasts... the way cultivators fight in this world is surprisingly similar to the Qi Refining Path..."
hoohoo!
Several white bone dragons fell, and the bone blade radiated countless mysterious lights as it slashed through the air.
A thin, white line appeared and swiftly swept towards Fang Qing.
Tick tock!
He casually extended a finger, and a touch of the cool, refreshing essence of "ginseng water" emanated from it.
A drop of water quickly froze into ice, blocking the thin, white line.
"impossible!"
Minggu Ancestor's eyes bulged out. If this human Mahayana cultivator had used some powerful magic weapon or secret technique to resist his 'Ten Thousand Bone Blade', he would have had nothing to say. However, the other party did not seem to have used much magic power. He only used a small spell of condensing water into soldiers to resist the blade light that cut through the void.
This puzzled him greatly, as it was a realm of Daoist magic that was beyond his imagination.
"So noisy!"
Fang Qing gently blew out a breath, which transformed into a blue-green breeze.
Endless wind blades emerged in the Xun wind, like tornadoes, sweeping across the chest of the Bone-Engraving Ancestor.
Whoosh!
The opponent's massive body was blown away, scattering a large amount of flesh, blood, and bone fragments in mid-air...
When he got up again, he was already severely injured and his breath was weak.
"Elder..."
On the edge of the battlefield, a female winged race member helped the Grand Elder to his feet: "What... should we do?"
"The Human Race's Mahayana cultivator, Lingxuzi, is severely injured and has gone into seclusion... Just who is this person? He... he took away the fragment of the [Taiyin Treasure Mirror]..."
A fierce glint flashed in the eyes of the Winged Clan's Grand Elder as he witnessed the scene of Ancestor Minggu making a move, only to be easily and severely injured by Fang Qing.
"He...he is no ordinary Mahayana cultivator; he is likely capable of contending with those 'Mahayana Divine Beasts' born from the creation of the Celestial Palace in the Great Void!"
Mahayana Divine Beast!
Those are all bestowed by Heaven and Earth, created by the celestial palace. They are born innately and nurtured in the Great Void. They often possess great combat power as soon as they are born!
In fact, compared to ordinary Mahayana cultivators, these divine beasts are even stronger! Their supernatural abilities are also more bizarre!
At this moment, this Mahayana cultivator who looked like a human gave the Winged Clan's Grand Elder this feeling!
"Lord Ao-Yin, please make a move!"
With a wave of his hand, the Bone Ancestor revealed a piece of crystal-clear white bone, which transformed into a bone chariot.
He stood atop the chariot, his voice echoing through the void.
Boom!
A jet-black hoof stepped from the void into the mortal world, like a small island that had fallen.
As it landed on the ground, the resulting shockwave sent countless high-level winged cultivators flying.
Suddenly, a divine beast appeared on the spot. It was shaped like an ox, with a snow-white body, four horns, and thick fur that looked like a raincoat draped over its body. It was surrounded by countless images of white bones...
A deep, aged voice rang out almost simultaneously: "Minggu... you asked me to help you before only to drive away the divine beasts near Taixu... Now that you're taking action yourself, the agreement in the contract with your Bone Pattern Sacred Clan to help you once every thousand years can be considered truly fulfilled..."
The Bone-Engraving Ancestor gritted his teeth: "Everything is as Lord Aoyin said!"
"As expected, this divine beast is in league with the Bone Pattern Sacred Clan."
Fang Qing naturally understood the languages of these mythical beasts, even though they weren't speaking the same language.
However, with his Golden Core divine sense, aided by his ability to deduce, there was no foreign language he couldn't learn the moment he met someone.
Furthermore, this Mahayana divine beast and the Bone Pattern Sacred Clan seem to be the contractual relationship that the Winged Clan is seeking today.
Although there are constraints, the conditions seem relatively lenient.
"A Mahayana stage cultivator... to be comparable to a divine beast like us with immortal beast bloodlines, that's quite rare..."
Upon hearing Ancestor Minggu's guarantee, the enormous Ao Yin turned its head, its four-horned bull-headed form gazing at Fang Qing: "My name is 'Ao Yin,' which is also the name of my race, for I am the only Ao Yin divine beast in the world! I have killed six Mahayana cultivators from various races; you will be the seventh. Proclaim your name, and I will always remember you..."
"Ha!"
Fang Qing shook his head and raised his hand.
A spring surged forth, seemingly transforming into the Yangtze River, stretching across the sky.
The water shimmered, and beneath this long river, the bodies of both the Bone-Patterned Saint Clan and the Winged Clan cultivators melted away, transforming into streams of water...
Terrified cries of fleeing filled the air as various streaks of light frantically scattered in all directions.
Swish!
The mighty Yangtze River rushed toward the mythical beast Ao Yin, but was blocked by a thick layer of earthy yellow light.
Thick smoke billowed from the mouth and nose of the Ao Yin, filling the heavens and earth, and was actually protecting those Bone Pattern Saint Clan members.
It seems that this should also be a provision in the contract.
"As expected of a Mahayana divine beast, it is indeed extraordinary..."
Fang Qing stood atop a fountain and said calmly, "But to say that I would stay would be far too arrogant..."
At the same time, he thought to himself, 'This divine beast is subject to the offerings and constraints of the Bone Pattern Sacred Clan... what did the Bone Pattern Sacred Clan offer in return?'
A faint sense of danger had already begun to surface in his mind.
A flash of yellow light appeared ahead.
A small, bright yellow seal suddenly appeared before the massive body of the Ao Yin.
Compared to the size of the eagle, this seal was but a drop in the ocean, yet its presence was astonishing.
The seal has a moist color and a faint earthy yellow sheen, while the knob is shaped like a small mountain.
That is a mountain, soil, an endless earth vein, the earth spirit of heaven and earth, and... the great way of earth!
"Rare treasures from a celestial abode?!"
The Winged Clan's Grand Elder gazed at the small seal, his heart filled with bitterness.
Their own clan fought tooth and nail to obtain a fragment of a celestial artifact, but their attempt to contract a Mahayana divine beast was rejected.
The Bone Pattern Sacred Clan had already obtained a [Mountain Seal of Geomancy] from the Mountain and Sea Secret Realm and formed a contract with this powerful 'Ao Yin', which is considered a strong divine beast!
It can be said that this divine beast has protected the Bone Pattern Sacred Clan for countless years, and is the key to its becoming a major clan in the Spirit Realm!
Countless small tribes attempted to emulate this, but most failed.
For example, the Winged Clan today!
"A complete immortal artifact?"
Fang Qing let out a long breath, feeling the pressure of the Earth element in the void.
Endless splashes of water were annihilated and evaporated...
That spring of water disappeared in an instant.
Smoke billowed from the mouth and nose of the mongoose, swirling around the "Feng Shui Mountain Seal," making its form seem both incredibly large and incredibly small.
A layer of yellowish-brown scales emerged from its body, and countless minerals buried underground shimmered with light.
With the dignity of a Mahayana divine beast, it actually seemed to have moved the entire Earth Virtue Great Dao with a complete immortal artifact!
At this moment, it was almost comparable to a True Lord of Earth!
"Only we Mahayana divine beasts, with the bloodline of immortal beasts, can perfectly unleash the power of immortal artifacts. To die beneath an immortal artifact is your honor!"
The roar of the hooves was like thunder, shaking the heavens.
[Feng Shui with Mountain Imprint] Surrounded by celestial light, carrying the shadows of ten thousand mountains, it crashed down with unstoppable force!
"So immortal artifacts are exclusively for Golden Core cultivators! No wonder they're stronger than ordinary treasures!"
"But... I am a Golden Core True Monarch! In your ranks, I'm also an immortal!"
Fang Qing sighed inwardly, then straightened his clothes: "I am... True Lord Xuanming Runji!"
With these words that sounded like a declaration, Daosheng Pearl spun around, not releasing the sealed [Ji Shui] gold position, but instead bestowing most of the gold position's power upon him through its 'omnipresent' nature.
After all, this world is not a world of Qi cultivation. If the Golden Position is released rashly, it will immediately become empty, and who knows how many changes it will cause.
Moreover, becoming a True Lord also involves the "calamity of holding the position," during which one will be subjected to a deluge of information.
Fang Qing even suspected that if he were to reveal himself as a True Monarch in this realm, he would not only bear all the historical imprints that came with the [Ji Shui] Golden Position, but also the Great Dao of Water of this world!
If you don't want to court disaster, it's best to use the "Dao Sheng Zhu" as a firewall.
Even so, by the time he uttered those words, his figure had vanished.
Instead, there is a colossal Dharma image that reaches the heavens and the earth!
The Jishui River forms a robe, and the reflections of countless springs converge to create a misty, shimmering water, forming a seamless blend of heaven and earth.
The higher you look up to it, the more solid it seems; the deeper you delve into it, the more unbreakable it becomes; it appears before you, and suddenly it's behind you...
A chaotic ocean descended, surrounding the True Lord's image, while great rivers converged to form the True Lord's robes. Rings of [Ji Water] radiance fell behind the image, transforming into arcs of light that continuously expanded outwards, releasing billions of [Ji Water] runes...
The ineffable image of the True Lord of Jishui stretched out his palm and caught the "Kanyu Youshan Seal" with a light flick of his finger.
puff!
Blood flowed from its seven orifices as the fierce beast stumbled and rushed into the void, the [Feng Shui Mountain Seal] following closely behind. Meanwhile, the Bone-Engraving Ancestor had already turned into a pool of ashes, burning brightly in the sky…
