Extreme Almightiest Young Master

Chapter 1414 - 1412: Realizing Alone

"Let’s think of a solution."

In the end, feeling helpless, he could only shake his head and speak calmly to everyone. Now there were no other options but to devise a solution; this was the most pressing matter. If they could obtain the elixir within, he might immediately become a real super powerhouse...

The group next to Su Zhong immediately gathered in front of an elixir, trying various methods to break the energy shield protecting it. Even Su Zhong calmed his agitated mind, determined to open the energy shield quickly and obtain the elixir inside.

Using brute force to break it—impossible!

Using Gang Qi to condense and open it—also impossible!

Using pure physical strength—equally impossible!

...

Attempt after attempt, but each method proved ineffective. Some even tried to move the location of the elixir, but to no avail, not even a fraction could be moved. Such frustration deepened everyone’s madness as they had no idea how to open the energy shield.

But giving up was something they couldn’t do. Those elixirs were reputedly Heavenly Grade Elixirs. If they could get just one, their fortune would be made. No matter how hard it got, nobody was willing to give up, each planning to find a way to obtain the elixir within the energy shield.

Su Zhong was still helpless with the elixir within the energy shield. Meanwhile, Chen Qing and his group faced the same situation. The first place they arrived at was the Wanjuan Pavilion, and from its name, it was evident that it had to do with cultivation techniques, driving them to ecstasy as they rushed into the Wanjuan Pavilion.

Upon entering, they saw grand bookshelves, their golden glow marking the area, each protected by an energy shield. They were curious about what kinds of books were stored there. So, everyone began to inspect the bookshelves. Immediately, they were astounded.

"Supreme Green Gang"

"Great Asura Path"

"Heaven-Slaying Martial Art"

...

Seeing the numerous cultivation techniques on the bookshelves, their eyes almost popped out. They had only heard of some, but every one of these cultivation techniques was mythical in existence during the Ancient Times. To see them now was so shocking they knew not what to say.

Seeing this, they immediately wanted to take out and examine the techniques, but frustratingly, they had no way to break the golden energy shield, leaving them to stare longingly at the techniques outside the shield, which was an exasperating feeling.

Chen Qing and others, witnessing this, tried various means, but no matter the method, there was no success, leaving them profoundly frustrated. They mused that it was almost worse than not being able to see them at all, as looking but not being able to take them was truly maddening.

They then wandered to other bookshelves to see if there was an energy shield they could open. Yet seeing the other bookshelves left them completely stunned!

Spiritual Medicine!

Minerals!

Strange Tales!

Demon Beasts!

Artifact Refining!

Alchemy!

...

Each bookshelf bore a unique name, indicating the kind of books it contained, covering almost everything imaginable. If they could open these bookshelves and take any book from within, the heights they could reach were unimaginable, even to themselves.

At this point, no one could hold back their excitement and began brainstorming methods, but to their frustration, every bookshelf was shrouded in golden energy shields. No matter how much they exerted their efforts, they got no response, driving everyone mad as they couldn’t figure a way to open the energy shields encasing the bookshelves...

Xia Guangze and his four Human Immortal Realm powerhouses brought Xia Lalan and others to a large palace, with the name "Jingyang Palace" inscribed outside. Clueless to its meaning, they all entered together.

Upon entering, they found the great hall inside absolutely empty. Apart from an unknown lamp above that brightly illuminated the hall, they saw nothing, leaving them puzzled about what Jingyang Palace truly was.

Stepping cautiously into Jingyang Palace, an unexpected event unfolded! The lamp overhead suddenly burned like a brilliant artificial sun, illuminating the entire hall in dazzling gold. It was so blinding they instinctively recoiled to shield their eyes.

"No! Something’s off; don’t panic—the light is peculiar!"

Quick-witted, Xia Guangze realized the peculiarity in the light. Within its glow, it felt as if he was wrapped in layers of Spiritual Energy. Without exaggeration, this light presented Spiritual Energy tenfold—no, countless times that of the outside air. Why would they retreat? This was an ideal spot for cultivation!

Think of this, and he signaled to the others, "Feel this—the light increases the Spiritual Energy density to an indescribable level. No need to panic. If I’m not mistaken, Jingyang Palace might be where Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal usually meditates and cultivates."

Upon hearing Xia Guangze, everyone’s mind steadied, confirming his words as they gazed at the blinding lamp above the great hall. They were filled with overwhelming awe, having never dreamed of encountering such a powerful treasure aiding their cultivation. Its ability couldn’t be matched by modern Artifact Refiners.

Seized by the opportunity, they all knelt to meditate, maximizing this rich Ancient Spirit Qi that couldn’t be wasted. Cultivating here for a day equaled several months outside. The benefits were staggeringly incredible—they couldn’t possibly forgo such an opportunity!

Within Jingyang Palace, the golden light blanketed all, submerging everyone in cultivation, their strength skyrocketing...

Days passed in a blink.

Lin Feng stood motionless on the square, watching the scene on the curtain wall. The boy in the image had grown into a youth, moving between forests with two Divine Beasts, battling various Demon Beasts.

It was beyond imagining—a seemingly 14-15-year-old youth could defeat Demon Beasts of mid-tier Demon Immortal strength. The scenes of battle were extraordinarily stunning, with entire forests disappearing, and vast ravines stretching hundreds of feet wide—as if about to Obliterate the Earth...

Lin Feng, like a statue, confirmed one thing from his days of observation: the boy in the image must be Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal himself. Watching the immortal’s growth rendered Lin Feng wholly absorbed by the revelation, granting him another profound insight.

Unbeknownst to Lin Feng, his aura outside had changed. His Seven-Colored Gang Qi manifested independently, simulating a fight within a surrounding range of dozens of feet, as lifelike as real combatants. If there were people around, they would be stunned by such an extraordinary scene—Gang Qi emulating master duels—something believed impossible for anyone to achieve...

......

"Damn it, why can’t it open?"

Days passed, and Su Zhong’s anger peaked further. Looking at these elixirs, his head felt ready to explode, having found no way to break the energy shield. It left him profoundly exasperated, cursing the blasted Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal for shielding the elixirs with these energy barriers, thwarting their acquisition!

"..."

Su Qi saw Su Zhong flare up again, wanting to speak but holding back in the end. She, too, was frustrated. Initially confident they’d find a way, she didn’t expect every possible method tried would leave the elixir’s energy shield untouched. Despite their longing for the elixirs, they couldn’t break through, leaving Su Qi uncertain of what to do.

At this moment, others glanced at Su Zhong, beginning to regret. They realized one thing: Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal had no intention of letting them take the elixirs, or only special individuals could take them. Their continued stay felt like a waste of time.

This thought sparked a desire to leave. Rather than fruitless efforts here, why not shift targets, exploring if other side halls offered benefits? Surely, Yuanxu Heavenly Immortal didn’t intend to leave them entirely empty-handed.

Yet, without Su Zhong suggesting departure, nobody dared speak out—even the two Elders from Myriad Saints Sect who accompanied them remained silent. They were merely here to prevent Su Zhong from danger, not to influence his decisions.

Seeing everyone quiet, eyes upon him, Su Zhong felt utterly frustrated. Sensing their defeat, he was reluctant to abandon the elixirs just like that. Complaints aside, he wanted to hold on a few more days. If unsuccessful then, they would leave.

With that, he told everyone, "Let’s try for three more days. If it still doesn’t work, we’ll explore elsewhere."
