Chapter 425 - 338: Carnage (4K)
"Succeeded?"
Zhang Jian appeared somewhat surprised. He hadn’t anticipated that Liu Rui and Ziyuan Daoist would have such value.
Zhang Jian casually took the Purple Gold Spirit Ball, hesitating slightly before beginning to examine the ancient technique structure contained within it.
The vast Primordial Spirit Divine Sense pierced out with his thought, instantly immersing into the Purple Gold Spirit Ball.
As he expected, within this purple-gold sphere were three still-intact technique structures.
One intertwined with countless Dragon Qi, resembling a magnificent golden Emperor’s Aura Canopy.
Another was formed by the condensation of countless golden runes into an extremely special sharp cone, containing a heavy, penetrating power within.
One could imagine that once it erupted, it could penetrate Qiankun Heaven and Earth, breaking through mountains and rivers, with immense power.
Simultaneously, Zhang Jian also captured part of the information about this technique.
"Mountain Drilling Cone!"
This was an Immortal-level technique inheritance.
Once mastered, it was designed to break all defenses, particularly profitable against defensive-type Spirit Treasures or techniques.
These were all good things.
The last structure was a special technique model formed by the intertwining of Yin and Yang Qi, resembling a Yin Yang Fish that continuously rotated, capable of cleaving through the void and firmament.
It was evidently a powerful Yin-Yang type Divine Technique.
Zhang Jian was extremely envious.
Within two Purple Gold Spirit Balls, most of the six Immortal Techniques were Immortal-level inheritances. If he could decipher them, their value would be enormous, providing immense benefits to enhance his power.
"The master is indeed the best in the world!"
Zhang Jian couldn’t help but sigh.
True Monarch Zhanmo glanced at him and snorted lightly.
"You mischievous apprentice, when did you learn how to flatter?"
Although she said that, there was a hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth.
Considering this, Zhang Jian’s figure flashed to appear before a hundred-foot Golden Man, channeling the Purple Gold Spirit Ball into it to merge the two purple-gold spheres.
Zhang Jian clearly sensed the fusion of the two Purple Gold Spirit Balls, causing the Primeval Sea in King Jun Golden Man’s gray-white sea of consciousness to ripple with hints of purple-gold, and the Dragon Qi within the Golden Man began to fluctuate and tremble slightly.
Next, he only needed to refine this purple-gold sphere to regain control of the King Jun Golden Man.
However, that was only preliminary control. For perfect mastery, it was best to assist with a high-tier puppet secret technique.
"Additionally, it looks like there is a ’power source’ missing at the core of the Golden Man. With only the Dragon Qi within the King Jun Golden Man and my magical power, I’m afraid after just a few moves, my magical power would be depleted..."
Zhang Jian thought to himself.
The six techniques contained within the King Jun Golden Man undoubtedly had immense power, but they also required a massive consumption of magical power.
He needed to find a Heavenly and Earthly Treasure to replace the Beichen Pearl.
Actually, he had substitutes on him.
For instance, the Tai Xiao Fiery Fire Pearl.
The Tai Xiao Fiery Fire Pearl contained boundless Dragon Qi and was even more suitable as the core within the King Jun Golden Man, able to use the Great Power Primordial Immortal Technique.
However, in Zhang Jian’s view, it would be somewhat wasteful.
Dragon Qi was too precious; he intended to slowly assimilate it into the Four Great Emperor’s Fates, to achieve Perfection.
The Red Dragon Pearl could also accomplish this.
But the larger function of the Red Dragon Pearl was to suppress Destiny.
...
Zhang Jian didn’t wait idly for news from True Monarch Zhanmo. After appeasing the numerous civil and military dignitaries in Haojing City, he prepared to visit Yuanchi Pass.
In Yuanchi Pass, there were still several hundred thousand elite soldiers of the Daqian expedition. Bringing them back intact would account for half of the victory in this Dragon contest. If these elite forces fell into the hands of others, it would be a major trouble.
In the royal struggle over Dragon, while Primordial Spirit Masters transcend life and death and possess the power of National Guardians, they cannot recklessly attack ordinary people.
Not only would the Sheji Divine Dao intervene, but it would also affect one’s cultivation, limiting them to roles as commanders directing the army.
Given these restrictive conditions, hundreds of thousands of elite troops carry significant weight.
Gaining the acknowledgment of these army forces would equate to reinforcing his Four Great Emperor’s Fates, further augmenting his power.
...
Within Yuanchi Pass, the expeditionary force commanded by An Ruming faced unstable morale after the disappearance of the Dong Shen Ancestor.
Without the Dong Shen Ancestor, this expeditionary army appeared to have lost its backbone, its morale plummeting, and further exacerbated by Daqian’s backlashes on their Qi leading many Primordial Spirit Masters to experience a decline in magical power, now facing fierce counterattacks from all fronts of Beichu.
If said before, the expedition was a relentless drill tearing apart the north and south of Beichu, throwing its overall situation into chaos, it had now become an ’isolated army deep in enemy territory.’"
Many of the sect ancestors involved in besieging the Dong Shen Ancestor left after the battle at Guangyuan City. Either cautious of the Sheji Divine Dao or unwilling to entangle in pointless evil, they did not continue with the subsequent battles. However, some demonic Primordial Spirits returned to Beichu to take advantage of the situation.
Of the two National Guardian Masters originally worshipped in Beichu, another known as the Three-Phase Ancestor reappeared.
The sight of the Three-Phase Ancestor placed significant pressure on the Primordial Spirit Masters of Daqian.
Originally, Beichu worshiped two National Guardian Grand Masters, one being the Blood Sea Saint Monarch of the Blood Shadow Demon Sect, and the other being the Sinful Demon Sect’s Three-Phase Ancestor.
The Blood Sea Demon Monarch had been severely injured by Qianhai True Monarch, but the Three-Phase Ancestor was much craftier, having hidden before the war. Now, seeing the True Monarchs of various sects depart, he reappeared.
Inside the Divine Strategy Army Headquarters
An Ruming, sitting at the head seat, maintained a stern face as his gaze swept over everyone, speaking in a solemn tone.
"Fellow Masters, we are pressed for time. We must find a way to return to Daqian, or if the provisions run out, our army may collapse without a fight!"
