Chapter 121: Dragon Qi

The face of the Snow Charm Elder changed drastically. His snow-white long hair flew wildly, and his Taoist robes flapped in the wind.

He activated an ice-blue treasure pearl from his body. It shot through dozens of feet and landed within the Fragrant Snow Scroll, causing the bone-chilling, frosty light that could freeze mountains and rivers to blaze violently. Yet, it was still no use.

The pale golden sword light cut through the air. The streams of spiritual light on the Fragrant Snow Scroll crumbled. The Innate Dao Restrictions beneath the sword light gradually became twisted, torn, and collapsed.

The eyelids of the other two loose cultivator masters twitched. Not daring to be careless, the Return to Origin Sword Immortal unleashed his own Taixu Sword Light once more, enveloping all realms. It was like a wandering sword light that filled heaven and earth.

Vast and surging, it stirred the soul!

The Daoist Wenhuan, meanwhile, pushed the Bewitching Sands of Pestilence from his Life-Bound Treasure, the Pestilence Gourd, to their limit. Inside, layers of vicious, poisonous miasma could faintly be seen as he attempted a diversionary tactic.

Multiple beams of spiritual light clashed.

There was no extraordinary phenomenon. In that fleeting instant, like a silent play, the Fragrant Snow Scroll instantly shattered within the Innate Two Poles Annihilation Sword Light. The torn Innate Dao Restrictions twisted layer by layer, and the extremely cold spiritual light was severely damaged.

With a mournful cry, it transformed into an ice-blue streak of light and retreated!

Next was the Taixu Sword Light. Its faint Taixu radiance was pierced through by the Two Poles Annihilation Sword Light. The subsequent Bewitching Sands of Pestilence directly returned to their origins amidst the sword light that divided into two poles and evoked the evolution of the Primordial World.

“Innate Yin-Yang? Innate Two Poles?”

Muttering to himself, the middle-aged Taoist from the Taixu Temple showed a trace of awe-struck admiration in his expression. He had also heard of the profound mysteries of the Innate Yin-Yang Profound Light in the Taixu Temple’s “Treatise on Universal Sagehood.”

The Innate Yin-Yang Profound Light could break through anything!

Such a profound method was no longer something ordinary secret techniques or treasures could withstand.

Yet, the Return to Origin Sword Immortal still exerted his full power, erupting with an extremely brilliant sword light to meet it head-on.

The Snow Charm Elder and Daoist Wenhuan each had their beards and hair flying. They simultaneously roared in anger. The Snow Charm Elder’s ice-blue treasure pearl flew back, and Daoist Wenhuan sent out a pitch-black large umbrella from his hand to envelop himself.

However, it was useless. That sword light pierced through first. The layers of Dharma Aspect Immortal Light surrounding the Return to Origin Sword Immortal were peeled away one by one. Finally, it struck his chest, and he vanished from the spot without a sound.

Next were the Snow Charm Elder and Daoist Wenhuan. Their two life-protecting secret treasures let out mournful cries, their brilliance dimming under the sword light. One after another, Innate Dao Restrictions collapsed. Immediately after, the Snow Charm Elder and Daoist Wenhuan, unwillingness in their eyes, were struck down by the sword light.

Pairs of eyes watched this scene. Silence fell piece by piece.

It was hard to imagine that this person actually possessed such a terrifying Dao art.

He did not act lightly, but when he did, it was like a thunderclap breaking the situation.

“It’s just unknown where this Lin Yuan learned such a method. The Elephant River Sword Light derived from the Chengyuan Immortal Sect’s Scripture of the Elephant River Dao definitely doesn’t possess such power!”

According to information obtained by many True Inheritors of sects, Lin Yuan had indeed chosen the Chengyuan Immortal Sect’s “Scripture of the Elephant River Dao.” But the Scripture of the Elephant River Dao focused mainly on auxiliary deduction and did not have such sharp, killing capabilities.

“And that gate-like treasure!”

Within the Yong River Dragon Palace, several graceful figures had shifting gazes.

Once one reached the Primordial Spirit realm and above, the usefulness of ordinary magic treasures on one’s person diminished greatly. What determined strength were only the secret treasures and secret arts one had painstakingly cultivated.

Or one’s path-completion method, one’s path-completion supreme treasure.

But whether it was the cultivation or refinement methods for secret arts and treasures, or the spiritual materials needed for their refinement, all had become extremely hard to find.

In this regard, many loose cultivators were inferior to sect cultivators. Loose cultivators struggled to obtain complete cultivation methods and those rare, precious spiritual substances needed to refine secret treasures.

Yet even for sect disciples, refining a treasure of this level was exceptionally astonishing.

Many non-human cultivators couldn’t help but sigh in their hearts.

Among sect disciples, under the Twelve Dharma Lineages, the various sects truly produced many capable individuals.

…

On the spot, after slaying these unorthodox masters, Lin Yuan thought for a moment and casually sent a jade talisman to the Chengyuan Immortal Sect.

Today’s matter was no small affair; it likely meant subsequent trouble as well. And Lin Yuan happened to greatly dislike this kind of trouble.

It was just that many masterminds behind this event had yet to surface.

Those masterminds thought they were hidden very deeply, able to stir up trouble recklessly from the shadows. But they had miscalculated.

A profound formula appeared in Lin Yuan’s mind.

“Purple Star Astrology”!

In the Primordial World, he didn’t cultivate “Purple Star Astrology” because perhaps no one in the Primordial World cultivated such a strange method based on the Ziwei Star.

Once cultivated, it might attract the attention of certain great beings born from the Ziwei Star.

But in the Main World, the inheritance of “Purple Star Astrology” had a long history and was completely unrestricted!

Lin Yuan’s thoughts flickered. He glanced coldly at his surroundings and transformed into a streak of escaping light, heading downstream towards the direction of Wenchang County.

He hoped the Lin Manor was safe and sound. A dense Baleful Qi flashed in Lin Yuan’s eyes.

The Lin Manor was his reverse scale. This time, these people had actually dragged the Lin Manor into the vortex. They couldn’t blame him for breaking his bottom line.

…

In the Golden Lake Dragon Palace, the two Dragon Lords who had been playing chess had long since stopped. Their gazes almost simultaneously fell in the direction of the Lin Manor in Wenchang County.

Just a short while ago, a faint azure-purple Dragon Qi flickered and vanished. Then, in the clear daytime sky, several heavenly thunderbolts struck down on the Lin Family’s ancestral grave.

Through the methods of the two Dragon Lords, they could clearly see that those followers of the Five Passages Sect were almost all struck dead on the spot.

But what surprised the two Dragon Lords even more was that the azure-purple Dragon Qi slowly merged into the Lin Manor’s ancestral grave.

As seen through the Dharma Eyes of the two Innate Dragon Lords, it was visible to the naked eye that the red-white geomantic pattern of the Lin Manor gave birth to fine strands of azure-purple Dragon Qi. Even though it merged and downgraded, threads of golden Qi still spread, faintly glowing with azure-purple light.

“A Dragon Vein?”

The two Dragon Lords remained silent for a long time, unable to imagine where this suddenly appearing azure-purple Dragon Qi came from.

“Could it be that through four generations of accumulation by the Lin Manor, the underlying pattern had already formed? This time, the unorthodox secret method of the Five Passages Sect stimulated it, finally causing the Dragon Qi to emerge and be born in response to fate?”

The two Dragon Lords almost thought of the same thing simultaneously.

It seemed the Lin Manor had borne a strand of Tribulation Fortune during this minor yuan calamity.

The expressions of the two Dragon Lords varied. The Golden Lake Dragon Lord’s smiling face carried a hint of great joy.

The Honghu Lake Dragon Lord pinched his long beard, not speaking, though his expression held some measure of displeasure.

Changes in the Dragon Court affected the Eastern Peak Divine Court the most.

It was already faintly visible that within the Lin Manor’s earthly veins, many ghosts and deities, gaining the azure-purple Dragon Qi, saw their divine light surge one by one, and their blessed lands expand powerfully.

If a few more years passed, with that person from the Lin Manor entering and exiting the inner court, soon the Eastern Peak Divine Court would likely bestow an official title!

This situation might not affect him for now, but who knew if the Lin Manor would settle accounts with him later.

“Brother Honghu, it seems your people have failed!”

Opposite, the Golden Lake Dragon Lord looked over with a somewhat playful expression.

The Honghu Lake Dragon Lord raised his head and shook it. “It was merely one failure! This youngster might not escape unscathed every time!”

Then, his gaze turned somewhat meaningful as he looked at the Golden Lake Dragon Lord.

“And Brother Golden Lake, you act so carelessly. Be careful not to be dragged down by him!” He stood up tall, glanced leisurely at the Golden Lake Dragon Lord, cupped his hands, turned, and left.

The Golden Lake Dragon Lord watched the departing streak of escaping light of this Honghu Lake Dragon Lord with a cold expression, slightly frowning.

That Mu Family was indeed not easy to deal with!
