Cultivation Helped by Ancestors

Chapter 419 - 333: Division of Spoils

This requires waiting for news from True Monarch Zhanmo.

...

Zhang Jian consolidated his power in Haojing City, and the battle above Guangyuan City had reached a fever pitch.

The King Jun Golden Man was incredibly fierce, especially since the one controlling it was the Ancient Overlord Jun, which was a completely different concept from a mere puppet Golden Man.

Meanwhile, the Dong Shen Ancestor also displayed extraordinary strength, summoning several helpers and deploying an unprecedented Outer World Killing Array.

Duality Dust Array!

With this evil array, several Primordial Spirit True Monarchs who came to attack were consecutively slain.

However, this ancient array did not last long and was eventually broken by a mysterious female cultivator, who seemed unusually familiar with the Duality Dust Array.

She teamed up with three renowned experts from the cultivation realm to dismantle this evil array.

These were three Primordial Spirit Masters who had attained enlightenment for thousands of years in the Barbaric Region!

Thus the fame of the Four Barbaric Immortals quickly spread across the battlefield.

With the array broken, the Dong Shen Ancestor was besieged again, but his profound Dao practice and already formed Immortal Body managed to hold off three of the Four Barbaric Immortals.

"True Monarch Gu Mu, True Monarch Ape Emperor, Jinci Divine Monarch..."

At this moment in the void, True Monarch Zhanmo looked below as the Dong Shen Ancestor manifested the Thunder Emperor Dharma Aspect, wielding the Three Caverns Celestial Divine Thunder, which transformed into five True Dragons.

Each of these True Dragons possessed formidable power, not weaker than the magical power of a True Monarch of Harmonization, a terrifying divine technique indeed.

This Dong Shen Ancestor seems to have obtained the Outer Realm Thunder God’s Talisman Decree; once merit is achieved, he can ascend to the Celestial Realm and transform into a True Immortal Body.

Those three True Monarchs of Harmonization also possess extraordinary Dao practice, each a ruler of the outer void.

Only by joining forces could they barely suppress the Dong Shen Ancestor!

However, the most formidable was the purple-clad maiden, Xin Ziqing.

Her methods were inscrutable, even True Monarch Zhanmo found it hard to see through.

The Duality Dust Array is an ancient killing array of vast power.

The Dong Shen Ancestor, even with only a portion of its divine essence, couldn’t be easily overcome by ordinary people, but Xin Ziqing easily discerned its intricacies and broke it.

Without her actions, the outcome of today’s battle would remain unpredictable.

True Monarch Zhanmo gazed into the void, where the purple-clad maiden was slowly ascending, appearing beyond the Chaos Chessboard, her eyes considering the King Jun Golden Man with a thoughtful expression.

For a moment, her eyes turned to follow True Monarch Zhanmo’s gaze, and a voice appeared at True Monarch Zhanmo’s ear.

"Fellow Daoist Zhanmo, Fellow Daoist Jin Guang, how about we make a trade?"

Upon hearing the voice, True Monarch Zhanmo’s expression remained unchanged, while on the other side, the Golden Radiance Saint Mother showed an unusual expression.

Her vast divine thought swept over the area, and only then did her gaze turn in the direction of True Monarch Zhanmo, with a hint of surprise and heaviness, as she had not detected the whereabouts of the other party earlier.

True Monarch Zhanmo spoke with his Primordial Spirit Divine Sense: "What kind of trade?"

"Fellow Daoist Xin, do you have a good method to deal with the King Jun Golden Man?"

Xin Ziqing’s calm voice arrived: "There is a way—if we three join forces, I will find a way to delay the movements of the Golden Man. Fellow Daoist Jin Guang is skilled at inspection techniques; once she locks onto the Primordial Spirit Origin of King Jun, Fellow Daoist Zhanmo will have an opportunity!"

"Fellow Daoist Zhanmo’s Demon-Slaying Immortal-Slaying Sword is renowned in the outer world, containing the divine essence of the Ancient Sword Dao. With this Divine Sword, it should be enough to shatter King Jun’s Remnant Spirit!"

Upon hearing this, the Golden Radiance Saint Mother frowned, realizing that even Xin Ziqing held True Monarch Zhanmo in high regard, entrusting the task of slaying King Jun’s Remnant Spirit to him.

But after thinking, she said, "It’s not difficult to inspect King Jun’s True Spirit; the question is whether Fellow Daoist Zhanmo can seize the opportunity to slay King Jun’s Spirit in one stroke!"

True Monarch Zhanmo glanced in the direction of the Golden Radiance Saint Mother and said calmly.

"That’s not the point. The point is how we divide the benefits."

Xin Ziqing understood the implications of True Monarch Zhanmo’s words and candidly replied, "I only want one thing, the Beichen Pearl deep within the King Jun Golden Man!"

"Beichen Pearl?"

True Monarch Zhanmo’s expression shifted slightly, looking at Xin Ziqing with some surprise—not because the value was high, but in contrast, within the King Jun Golden Body, this Beichen Pearl was considered quite ordinary.

The Golden Radiance Saint Mother’s eyes moved slightly as she quickly stated her own condition: "I want King Jun’s Remnant Spirit!"

True Monarch Zhanmo laughed coldly.

"Fellow Daoist Jin Guang, merely locating the remnants of the spirit, yet you want to take the most precious treasure within King Jun’s Golden Body—your appetite is too large!"

"Without you, Fellow Daoist Xin and I could accomplish this!"

Upon hearing this, the Golden Radiance Saint Mother’s expression remained calm.

"Fellow Daoist Zhanmo, King Jun is a descendant of the Ancient Saint King, skilled in numerous mysterious techniques. You, not having specialized in inspection techniques, might not handle this delicately. Hence, taking King Jun’s Remnant Spirit is not excessive!"

Upon hearing this, True Monarch Zhanmo coldly chuckled, but simply gazed at the hundred-foot Golden Man being gradually dimmed by the Dao Map seal.

The most precious element of the King Jun Golden Man is the residual Human Emperor’s Fate and part of the Ancient Saint King’s inheritance deep within its spirit, followed by the Golden Man itself.

She could not let the Golden Radiance Saint Mother take such a huge advantage.

If not for Xin Ziqing and several Dao Lineage Ancestors in secret, she would have acted alone long ago.

She was determined to obtain it!

Now that Zhang Jian’s Primordial Spirit ascension was imminent, she still lacked a gift; naturally, the best would be to acquire the entire Ancient Golden Man.

This would make the perfect gift!

Seeing this, Xin Ziqing pondered briefly and then said.

"In that case, let’s split King Jun’s Remnant Spirit in half! Each of you gets half!

"Furthermore, inside the Golden Man are some Heaven and Earth Spiritual Objects; perhaps you could share them equally?"

The Golden Radiance Saint Mother pondered briefly; what she sought was naturally the Saint King Dao Lineage within King Jun’s Remnant Spirit, a treasure of immense value. If the Golden Maiden Sect aims to support the Dragon Court in the future, mastering the Saint King Lineage’s mysterious techniques will minimize losses for Liu Rui’s Dao path.

The Golden Radiance Saint Mother’s gaze turned to True Monarch Zhanmo, who after some thought, nodded.

This division she could reluctantly accept; at worst, she could try to seize the remaining inheritance from the Golden Radiance Saint Mother later.

Stealing from the Golden Radiance Saint Mother would be much easier than the current situation.

"Let’s begin then!"

As Xin Ziqing’s soft voice appeared, countless sharp sword auras descended from the heavens, like a sword capable of splitting the land.

This sword directly aimed at the Golden Man’s soul.

In the eyes of the three female cultivators, they saw True Monarch Qinghe’s figure continuously changing, countless sword shadows forming a terrifying Eternal Killing Array falling from the sky; this Shangqing Sword Sect Patriarch finally used his trump card.

But as one brilliant sword aura after another struck the Golden Man’s surface, it merely shattered part of the golden light surrounding it.

At this moment, Xin Ziqing acted; above her head appeared a radiant, five-colored divine light of gold and silver mixing.

"Innate Yin Yang Yuan Magnetic Divine Light!"

Seeing this divine light, True Monarch Zhanmo’s expression showed slight surprise; it was as if gold and silver flood dragons, instantly transforming into countless gold and silver chains that sealed the void, the surrounding Primordial Spirit Masters’ expressions changed, sensing their magical treasures and spirit treasures tremble uncontrollably.

Within the hundred-foot Golden Man, King Jun also showed a changing expression, feeling a massive constraint.

This divine light is the nemesis of Geng Metal Geng Attribute treasures!

At the same time, he sensed a terrifying premonition.

Above, the Golden Radiance Saint Mother held a Treasure Mirror, which was none other than the East Emperor’s Treasure Mirror. As she exercised her magical power, countless golden lights like dawn rays penetrated the void, locking onto King Jun Golden Man’s Remnant Spirit.

And then came a sword aura enough to dim the Void Dharma Realm and the boundless heavens.

Gazing at this sword aura, King Jun’s Remnant Spirit vaguely remembered something, as a hint of fear flashed within the depths of its remnant spirit.

"Shangqing..."
