Chapter 192: Whose Treasure Land is This? (9500 words)
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, Wang Xiu's clothes burst open, revealing his muscular upper body, which was golden and radiating divine light. Countless runes soared into the sky.
An unimaginable aura emanated from Wang Xiu.
Everyone was shaken and kept retreating, overwhelmed by this divine might.
At this moment, Wang Xiu resembled an ancient war god, majestic and powerful, as if a single punch could pierce through the world. The strength of his physical body was immeasurable.
Even Xiang Tiange's eyes widened in shock. He prided himself on his powerful physical body and rarely encountered anyone who could match him. But in the face of Wang Xiu at this moment, he felt a sense of fear and dread, unable to summon any thoughts of challenge.
"What kind of Divine Ability is this?"
Someone exclaimed, their eyes wide open and their body trembling.
This aura was vast and sacred, righteous and pure!
Clearly, it was the pinnacle technique of body cultivation.
As a disciple of the Three Purities Divination Lineage, where did Wang Xiu learn such a divine technique?
All the geniuses were dumbfounded.
They thought they had enough understanding of Wang Xiu, knowing that he was a top-notch genius who could rival the likes of Saint Children in the world.
But now, they realized that their understanding of Wang Xiu was still too limited.
This disciple of the Divination Lineage was too mysterious.
It was as if there were always hidden cards that you didn't know about, making it impossible to see through him.
"Proficient in formation arrays, proficient in lightning techniques... and now, he even cultivates his physical body. His Transcendent physical body, Junior Brother Wang Xiu... you really hide it well!"
Even Li Zuoyue, who was usually carefree, was stunned, her eyes filled with complexity.
Xiang Tiange's face twitched as he recalled the words of praise Wang Xiu had given him when they first met.
At that time, he had shamelessly accepted those words, boasting about how strong he was and how extraordinary his physical cultivation was.
Now, looking back, even with his thick skin, his face turned red with embarrassment.
"These little brats are making a big fuss!"
Inside the Soul-capturing Bell, Jiang Yourong's Spirit Partitioning Qi was filled with a sense of pride. "If they knew that this kid's miracles are not limited to this, but also in other aspects, wouldn't they faint?"
Jiang Linger also suppressed her laughter, feeling a sense of satisfaction in her heart for knowing things about Wang Xiu that others didn't. Her face turned red.
Mo Wuwei raised her glasses, pursed her red lips, and her beautiful eyes rippled with endless ripples.
If she could hear Jiang Yourong's words, she would definitely retort without hesitation. She knew better than anyone else about Junior Brother Wang Xiu's strengths!
...
The Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon Demon Subduing Golden Body can enhance the physical body, unparalleled in defense, and integrated in offense and defense.
It is usually difficult to perceive.
But once it is displayed, it is like the radiance of a Buddha, as if a divine dragon from the heavens is blessing oneself, with boundless power.
However, Wang Xiu deliberately restrained all the anomalies in his body to avoid any trouble.
He just silently recited the words "Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon" in his heart, unleashing half of its power.
There were no golden dragon anomalies or Buddha's radiance.
It was indistinguishable to ordinary people.
But in the face of this Dragon Transformation Grass, it was enough.
At this moment, Wang Xiu took a step forward.
The light of the runes on his body surged.
The surrounding void rippled and swept away.
The purple barrier around the Dragon Transformation Grass instantly collapsed with a "bang," and the invisible resistance dissipated.
The unparalleled brilliance of the treasure medicine also became gentle.
Like a tamed wild horse, it became docile, no longer possessing such strong rejection.
He plucked the Dragon Transformation Grass, and a strong essence rushed towards him, sweeping through his whole body, as if a warm current was impacting his limbs and bones.
The Holy Medicine was indeed extraordinary.
Just by smelling a whiff of it, his physical body was once again strengthened, reaching a higher level.
Even the golden light on his body became more solid.
Wang Xiu put the Dragon Transformation Grass into a special spatial ring, leaving it for future digestion and processing.
The onlookers watched with envy and couldn't help but sigh.
Wang Xiu senior brother (senior sister) was already talented, with endless means, comparable to the ancient Saint Child Saintess. Now that he has obtained this Holy Medicine, his cultivation path will undoubtedly become even smoother.
"Junior brother, we should leave quickly. There is a lot of commotion here, and people will arrive soon!" Xiang Tiange tidied up his mood and solemnly reminded.
Everyone also realized this.
The commotion caused by the emergence of the Dragon Transformation Grass was so shocking that even though Wang Xiu had set up the Azure Lotus Heaven Concealing Formation in advance, it still couldn't stop it.
At this moment, the air above this area was filled with auspiciousness and divine light, as if an unparalleled holy land had appeared.
The vast mist rose from the crack and continued endlessly.
Even some low-intelligence beasts were attracted and instinctively roared with greed towards this place.
Not to mention other cultivators and the geniuses of the Immortal Gate.
This is the Holy Medicine, an irresistible temptation that no one can resist.
Even if it were in the outside world, even a Saint would not be able to resist the urge to snatch it.
In the Saint Realm, there are restraints between various forces, which is fortunate, so there won't be anyone interfering with the trials of young geniuses.
But if Wang Xiu and the others don't leave, if they are discovered by the geniuses of other Immortal Gates, they will undoubtedly become targets of public criticism.
...
"The Dragon Transformation Grass is not the only opportunity here! Below this crack, there is an even more amazing chance!" Wang Xiu stared at that crack, his eyes emitting a jade-colored glow, perceiving everything.
After the natural ancient formation was unlocked, the secrets here became easier for him to understand.
He clearly sensed that there was a richer treasure hidden below this crack, even more extraordinary than the Holy Medicine!
Everyone was moved. What could be more amazing than the Holy Medicine? Could it be the Earth Immortal inheritance? Or the tomb of an ancient god?
They didn't dare to think too much, but they were certain that once the things below were revealed, it would definitely cause a great sensation.
Even the Saints from various factions in the Saint Realm would not be able to sit still.
"Should we go down?" The chief disciple of the Knife Lineage, Xiang Kunlun, looked excited, his eyes shining.
The other disciples were the same, their breathing becoming rapid. They wanted to go down and take a look. If there was a world-shaking opportunity, even if they only gained a little, it would be of great benefit to them.
Entering the Saint Realm was originally for opportunities.
Now that they were the first to encounter this treasure land and had the qualifications to explore it, how could they retreat?
If they did, they would regret it for the rest of their lives. When they looked back, their hearts would be clouded, and their thoughts would be blocked, making it difficult for them to progress!
"If we want to go down, we need to make more preparations to prevent someone from sneaking up on us from behind!" Xiao Yu was cautious by nature. Even though he was also looking forward to it at this time, he could still maintain rational thinking.
Wang Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "I do have a way to temporarily restore the natural ancient formation and use it to conceal this secret place. Perhaps it can buy us a lot of time!"
Xiao Yu's pupils trembled as he asked, "Is that true?"
He looked at Wang Xiu, increasingly resembling a monster.
At such a young age, being able to decipher a natural ancient formation was already extraordinary. If he could also restore the ancient formation, his accomplishments... could no longer be described as exceptional. Only a reincarnation of an immortal god from the ancient Mythical era could compare.
What kind of freak has emerged from the Divination Lineage?
"It's worth a try!"
Wang Xiu's eyes flickered as he reached out his hand and said, "Xiao Senior, lend me some formation flags!"
Xiao Yu hesitated for a moment, then unhesitatingly handed over the formation flags he had on him.
Wang Xiu's set of formation flags was only of the Supreme Grade Law Weapon level, although not weak, it was gradually falling behind Wang Xiu's pace.
As the chief of the Formation Lineage, Xiao Yu's background was naturally extraordinary. This set of [Xuan Yuan Six Harmony Formation Flags] consisted of thirty-six pieces, comparable to Supreme Grade Spirit Weapons, with extremely powerful effects.
Wang Xiu played with them for a while and was quite satisfied. After this trip, he should also consider reorganizing a set of formation flags.
Using the Supreme Insight Chapter, he had previously experienced the mysteries of the natural ancient formation, unraveling it step by step, gaining a lot of insights.
Now, the impressions still remained in his mind, leaving a deep understanding.
Although he couldn't completely restore the ancient formation, temporarily sealing off this area shouldn't be a problem.
First, he removed the [Four Beasts Exterminate Evil Guardian Formation] that he had previously set up.
Then, he formed hand seals.
Thirty-six formation flags flew out, shining in the void, constantly changing their positions.
His eyes were filled with dazzling divine light, endless runes soaring into the sky, covering the sun and obscuring the sky. It was as if several rounds of great suns had appeared in the sky, unimaginably dazzling.
Buzzing!
A dense tremor came from the void, as if someone was whispering in their ears across ancient times. It made people's hearts beat faster, their bodies stiff, and gave them a feeling of being stared at by ancient gods.
"Saintly virtue towering, divine power vast, merging with nature, appearance surpassing the Three Mountains, the great name Xuan Ying, born of wisdom!"
Wang Xiu's lips moved slightly, emitting a low chant, like the whisper of an ancient god. The world fell completely silent.
Only his voice remained, as if the supreme sound of the Dao, making people yearn for it, and involuntarily feeling the urge to kneel and worship.
Xiao Yu's eyes were dazzled as he concentrated and held his breath, trying to learn something from it.
But after only a moment, he felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground, his face pale.
The profundity within it was completely beyond his current understanding.
These were the words of Dao that Wang Xiu had comprehended from the natural ancient formation, each word like a precious gem, containing immense divine power.
In an instant, holy light filled the four corners of the void, countless order laws flowed back like time reversing from a distance.
It was as if thousands of seals that had already broken free were now being summoned back by Wang Xiu using his supreme formation dao.
The next moment, the strange phenomena dissipated.
The expanding cracks rapidly healed, leaving only a narrow gap.
Wang Xiu exclaimed, "Let's go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped into the crack first.
The others quickly followed suit.
Immediately, the vast mist rolled back, and the surroundings returned to normal, just like when they first arrived, nothing out of the ordinary, but with a hint of strangeness.
...
"Wang Xiu junior brother, did you really do it?"
On the other side of the crack, there was a dimly lit passage, obviously in another void, empty and desolate, as if there was nothing there.
It was like the legendary chaos, a misty haze where nothing could be seen.
Only behind them, the direction they came from, a circular seal with flickering mysterious light kept rotating, surrounded by mist.
Xiao Yu was extremely shocked, his face flushed.
Wang Xiu had actually restored such a magnificent and terrifying natural ancient formation.
Such a feat, even if it wasn't done by Xiao Yu himself, he witnessed it with his own eyes and felt equally honored.
It was enough to be remembered for a lifetime.
Wang Xiu looked at the circular seal and his expression didn't relax too much. "My cultivation is still shallow, and this seal hasn't been fully restored. There is still a gap, and...
As time goes on, this gap will become larger and eventually collapse again, so our time is limited!"
Since this place had already been opened up by him, it was impossible for it to truly return to its original state and become exactly the same as before.
The gap would only get bigger.
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!" The crowd's eyes were filled with excitement as they hurried forward.
The space here was chaotic. They seemed to be trapped in an endless mist, but they could clearly feel the dense spiritual energy between heaven and earth, which was terrifying.
In addition to spiritual energy, there was also an extremely abundant life essence.
"Look, it's the Star Moon Bamboo!"
Not long after they moved forward, Three Purities' genius exclaimed and pointed ahead.
There, in the misty haze, a bamboo that emitted starlight could be seen. It was clear as jade, and every leaf was glowing, gently swaying and sprinkling starlight.
It was an extremely rare treasure of heaven and earth, a supreme-grade material for artifact refining, and extremely rare.
They had encountered countless opportunities in the ancient forest they had traveled through, but they had never seen such a level of treasure before. The crowd's eyes sparkled with excitement.
Mo Wuwei stepped forward, wearing a monocle, and gently touched it, exclaiming, "This Star Moon Bamboo is of excellent quality, even better than all the records of Vermilion Bird City for hundreds of years...
It's like it has grown by drinking the blood essence of a powerful creature, truly extraordinary!"
Wang Xiu waved his hand and said, "Take it away!"
Not long after, another exclamation sounded.
"Purple Cloud Mushroom!"
"This is an extremely rare treasure medicine that has a miraculous effect on improving cultivation!"
"Oh my god, this kind of treasure medicine is rarely seen even in normal times, and here, three of them are growing together!"
"Look over there, what is that?"
"Green Jade Glass, this is the top-grade mineral! Hurry, dig more, be careful!"
...
The disciples of Three Purities had already seen many good things.
But the opportunities, spirit medicine, and materials in this treasure land were clearly of a higher grade and quality than those in the ancient forest they had traveled through.
And they were everywhere, scattered like worthless wildflowers and grass.
The disciples of Three Purities were ecstatic, reaping plentifully, with smiles stretching from ear to ear.
For them, Holy Medicine was something that could be encountered but not sought, but these treasures were always welcome.
Even Xiang Tiange emerged from the haze of being rejected by Dragon Transformation, with excitement and a smile on his face.
The further they went, the thinner the mist became.
Wang Xiu had already determined that this was a separate small Secret Realm, connected to the outside world only by an exit, unknown for how many years it had existed.
The only regret was that the space of this Secret Realm was not large.
Soon, it felt like they had reached the end.
What appeared in front of Wang Xiu and the others was an ancient well.
No one knew why such a place would have an ancient well.
They could only look down from above.
It was pitch black, without any light, but it had a certain indescribable attraction, as if it could devour even a person's spirit.
"What is this place?"
"Be careful, I have a bad feeling about this. It seems ominous, and just being close to it makes one feel fearful!"
"Why do I feel like this is a gaping mouth that can devour all living beings?"
"Don't scare us!"
The atmosphere became eerie.
Some timid female cultivators couldn't help but frown and take two steps back subconsciously.
The aura emanating from this ancient well indeed made them feel danger and want to stay away.
Wang Xiu's gaze, however, became bright.
He had felt all along that although the treasures in this Secret Realm were abundant, they didn't match up to the horrifying phenomenon.
At the entrance of the Secret Realm, there was also a Holy Medicine.
Could it be that there was nothing else here?
Now it seemed that the problem should lie with this ancient well, or... beneath the well.
He activated the Supreme Insight Chapter and focused his gaze.
Sure enough, he saw an extremely rich golden light rising from the bottom of the well, as if there was a great sun at the bottom, radiating infinite brilliance.
But at the same time, coexisting with the golden light was an extremely fierce black aura.
That represented extreme danger.
Under this ancient well, there was an astonishing opportunity, but it could also take a person's life at any moment.
Wang Xiu's expression changed, he pondered for a moment, took out a piece of a fierce beast's bone, placed it at the mouth of the well, and dropped it down.
After a moment.
The entire Secret Realm shook violently, the sound of a dragon's roar shook the heavens, and a bright red aura surged from the ancient well, stirring up a terrifying killing intent. The disciples of the Three Purities changed their expressions and quickly retreated hundreds of feet.
Several blood-colored giant dragons condensed from the killing aura rushed out of the well, their eyes crimson. With just one glance, they could evoke all the fear in a person's heart and dissipate all fighting spirit.
Those blood-colored giant dragons fought over and devoured the bones of the fierce beast, leaving nothing behind in an instant.
Everyone's scalp tingled, and their whole bodies felt cold and stiff.
Even Li Zuoyue and Xiang Tiange, who were geniuses, felt numb and terrified at this moment.
"Such a strong killing aura!"
The Soul-Capturing Bell trembled, and Jiang Yourong couldn't help but exclaim, staring at the ancient well, her face pale, her beautiful curves trembling, her full chest heaving violently.
"There is a creature of the ancient divine beast level that died under this well, enduring countless years, with a strong aura of death and corrosion. It can tear apart, corrode, and devour the flesh of anyone who approaches!"
"It should be a powerful member of the Dragon Race, perhaps a true dragon fell here!" Wang Xiu's gaze flickered as he said, "This kind of death aura is different from the aura of souls, with extremely strong corrosive ability, especially adept at corroding the flesh of the living, turning it into nourishment!
Unless one's physical body is extraordinary, if an ordinary person approaches, their flesh will be corroded and turned into pus in less than a moment!"
When Xiang Tiange heard the four words "extraordinary physical body," he instinctively wanted to step forward.
But when he remembered what had happened before, he fell silent and awkwardly stepped back.
Boom!
Just at this moment.
There was movement from the bottom of the well again.
Could it be that the killing aura surged up again?
Everyone's expressions changed, scattering and retreating, not daring to stay.
But this time, it wasn't the killing aura, but an extremely rich vitality that gushed out from the bottom of the well, permeating the entire Secret Realm, nourishing countless spiritual herbs. There was still a lot left, flowing towards the entrance of the Secret Realm.
This vitality was even purer than the one carried by the Dragon Transformation Grass.
Or rather, the source of the vitality of the Dragon Transformation Grass was the bottom of this well.
This vitality made people's minds sway.
As if undergoing some kind of transformation.
Many disciples of the Three Purities trembled in place, breaking through on the spot.
Xiang Tiange was astonished, unable to close his mouth: "Just how powerful are the ancient dragons buried in the ancient well? After countless years of falling, their bodies have not completely decayed, and the remaining essence still soars into the sky, able to affect the entire world!"
Ji Zidian's beautiful face froze, her curves graceful as she looked at the ancient well, murmuring, "There must be astonishing opportunities down there, but we... I'm afraid that besides Senior Brother Xiang, only Senior Brother Wang Xiu has a chance to sneak in and find out!"
Her voice carried a strong sense of regret, such a precious place, unable to explore it deeply, it was truly a pity.
Xiang Tiange also shook his head, bitterly smiling, "Junior Sister, you overestimate me. In this malevolent aura, I can only resist for a few moments before turning into a corpse!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze fell on Wang Xiu, hoping for him.
If even Wang Xiu, who has cultivated his physical body to an unimaginable level, cannot do it, then this time, they may have to turn back.
"I'll go down and take a look!" Wang Xiu's body was covered in runes, a divine light protecting him, resisting the malevolent aura as he leaped into the ancient well.
It wasn't pitch black down there, but rather a dark red.
It was like a space formed by countless viscous blood gathering together.
Ripples appeared on his body, golden light flickering, waves emanating, resisting the malevolent aura.
The erosion was invisible, but could be clearly felt.
Ordinary geniuses, when they reached this place, would melt away in a matter of seconds without the protection of a Saint Weapon.
Roar--
A roar suddenly sounded.
Evil dragons formed by the condensation of malevolent aura rushed towards Wang Xiu's physical body.
The sound of ancient bells rang out.
The evil dragons were repelled.
The Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon Demon Subduing Golden Body, truly worthy of being the supreme technique of the Great Golden Buddha Temple, naturally had a natural restraint against malevolent auras.
Not to mention that Wang Xiu's Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon was already at the perfect level, with extremely strong effects.
It prevented evil spirits from getting close.
Feeling slightly relieved, he continued to descend.
The ancient well seemed bottomless, as if it had no end, quietly causing despair.
The Buddha light ripples on his body became more and more frequent, brighter and brighter.
Wang Xiu couldn't help but frown, sensing something amiss.
Although the Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon was strong, it still required mana support.
Wang Xiu's mana, whether in terms of quality or quantity, far surpassed cultivators of the same level.
But as he continued to go deeper, the surrounding power of blood and malevolence became stronger, and the mana cost of maintaining the Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon Demon Subduing Golden Body also increased.
If his mana ran out and he still hadn't reached the bottom of the well, it would be dangerous.
Using the Supreme Insight Chapter, he sensed that the treasure qi became even more abundant, dazzling and overpowering, several times stronger than the Dragon Transformation Grass, it was unknown what kind of opportunity it was.
"Let's go deeper and try..." Wang Xiu gritted his teeth slightly, intending to persist a little longer.
He had already gone deep enough.
His presence couldn't be sensed from above the well.
He no longer concealed himself, fully displaying the power of the Great Mighty Heavenly Dragon, the golden dragon shadow sweeping out, reducing the pressure significantly.
He continued forward for an unknown amount of time.
The power of blood and malevolence around him gradually became violent, the evil dragons formed by the condensation of corpse malevolence became clearer, solid, as if they truly existed, constantly eroding his physical body.
His speed was hindered, his movements becoming slower and slower.
The flow of mana within his body also became faster and faster.
"No, if this continues, I'm afraid I won't be able to return!" Wang Xiu made a decisive decision and chose to give up.
He immediately retreated upstream, swiftly returning along the original path.
Bang! Wang Xiu rushed out of the ancient well and landed on the side, everyone quickly surrounding him.
"How is it?"
"Junior Brother, are you okay?"
"Senior Brother Wang Xiu, are you injured anywhere?"
"Did you find anything?"
Everyone spoke at once, their faces filled with worry.
"This ancient well is bottomless, the deeper you go, the stronger the erosion force becomes. I couldn't reach the bottom!" Wang Xiu honestly confessed.
Disappointment appeared on everyone's faces.
But soon, they put those thoughts aside. Even Wang Xiu couldn't reach the bottom of the well, so whatever opportunities were down there, it had nothing to do with them.
It was destined to be beyond their reach.
"Since that's the case, let's hurry back! If the malevolent aura erupts or something, we'll be in danger!" Xiang Tiange suggested.
Everyone nodded in agreement and prepared to return along the road.
Just then.
[Ding!]
[Detected someone nearby bragging wildly, triggering a critical hit, reaching the system's high slot. Congratulations to the host for gaining +297 mana and +297 mana quality!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the "Ancient Fighting Heaven Scripture" Ultimate Perfection Experience Card!]
"Wait!"
Wang Xiu suddenly stopped, his eyes flickering with excitement.
Who is bragging?
...
Let's start from the beginning.
A moment ago.
At the seal of the natural ancient formation.
Qingzhou, who looked like a child, stood there, looking around, frowning, "Strange, I clearly felt that immense power was nearby, but now that I'm here, I can't sense anything?"
He was not far from this place, so he became the first Tianjiao to arrive here.
But that shocking disturbance had disappeared without a trace at this moment, as if everything before was just an illusion.
At this moment.
An incredibly pure life essence surged out from a crack he hadn't noticed.
It spread out.
Even this space was infected and underwent astonishing changes. The surrounding wild grass grew rapidly, and giant trees shot up, as if they had gained spirituality, blocking out the sun.
Qingzhou's eyes lit up with joy, "Indeed, it's a treasure land. If I cultivate here, my efficiency will be a hundred times greater than before!"
Just bathing in this essence for a moment.
His physical body became radiant, emitting a lustrous treasure-like light, like an indestructible Law Treasure.
The aura within him continuously condensed and rose.
The essence in every part of his flesh and blood underwent sublimation.
Roar!
Suddenly, thunderous roars came from all directions.
The mountains and forests trembled.
Even the ground shook.
Qingzhou looked up, his expression changing slightly. He saw densely packed ferocious beasts and ancient creatures, which had been scared away before, now being attracted back by the dense essence between heaven and earth, forming a tide of beasts.
The scale was enormous, making people's scalp tingle and feel fearful.
In the distance.
Many latecomer Tianjiaos, upon seeing this scene, were startled and stopped in their tracks, not daring to approach any closer.
"What happened?"
"So many ferocious beasts, and many ancient creatures with the bloodline of ancient divine beasts, they seem to have gone crazy!"
"Keep your distance!"
"..."
The commotion was immense, mountain ranges collapsed, cracks appeared on the ground, rivers changed their course, and large areas of dense forests fell. Many ferocious beasts had terrifying strength, not inferior to the Tianjiaos of the human race, but in this chaos, they died in large numbers under the feet of even stronger ferocious beasts or were directly killed by the ancient birds with ancient bloodlines flapping their wings.
All living beings had gone mad, their eyes bloodshot, staring fixedly at the area where Qingzhou was located.
As if they had discovered a treasure.
Their inherent greed was ignited.
They rushed over without any regard.
Qingzhou slowly stood up, his expression solemn, staring at the tide of beasts around him. Like a child, he stood straight, towering like a giant, "A bunch of animals, do you want to snatch my opportunity? Have you asked my hammer?"
As soon as his words fell, he leaped into the air, shattering the ground beneath him, and flew towards the sky like an eagle.
He directly grabbed the wing of an ancient demonic bird with one hand.
That ancient demonic bird was enormous, with wings that covered the sky, and a fierce aura. It had the bloodline of a great roc bird and was extremely ferocious.
But Qingzhou grabbed its wing, kicked its abdomen with one foot, his expression ferocious, and let out a roar.
Swoosh!
Blood rained down, and a wing was torn off, incredibly bloody.
Qingzhou's body was stained with blood, becoming even more ferocious, like a killing god. He swung his meteor hammer and smashed it directly on the head of the ancient demonic bird.
Bang!
The head of the ancient demonic bird exploded, dying a miserable death on the spot.
Silence filled the scene.
Even the fierce beasts were stunned.
The strength of this human race was too formidable. With just one strike, he killed the demonic bird with the bloodline of the Great Peng Bird.
"Hiss~"
"That person... could it be Qizhou? The Saint Child of Qizhou Grotto-Heaven?"
"Who else could it be besides him?"
"The fourth-ranked Saint Child on the Gold Core List, Qizhou Saint Child. Unparalleled in physical strength, invincible in ferocity. He truly lives up to his reputation, like a humanoid fierce beast!"
It is rumored that when Qizhou Saint Child was born, he was cursed and unable to use mana in his body. He was deemed a waste and unable to cultivate. His physical body stopped growing at the age of eight, remaining like a child for life! But despite this, he managed to forge a path of pure physical cultivation with astonishing talent and perseverance!
This is an ancient path that has not been seen in recent ancient times, and the hope is slim!
"But there's no denying his astonishing combat power. If it weren't for his inability to use mana and spells, his shortcomings would be too obvious, and he would easily rank in the top three of the Gold Core List!"
"The times have changed. He has no mana in his body and can't even fly. He can only briefly hover with his astonishing physical strength... But this barbaric approach, when faced with the top three geniuses on the Gold Core List, there are a hundred ways to kill him..."
"Don't speak so absolutely. You've seen his current combat power. I don't think... those ranked ahead of him are stronger than him!"
"..."
The crowd discussed fervently.
Qizhou was a legendary figure, and his legendary deeds were even more inspiring to many people than the top three geniuses on the Gold Core List.
Born as a waste, unable to cultivate, he walked a path of pure physical cultivation that no one had taken since ancient times.
It should be noted that even the Immortal Gate of Qizhou, which is famous for its physical cultivation method, also cultivates spiritual energy and strengthens the body through Flesh Refining.
The Three Purities Immortal Gate also follows this path.
But Qizhou couldn't do it. He couldn't store any mana in his body, and his meridians seemed blocked, making it difficult for spiritual energy to enter his body.
His way of becoming stronger could only be achieved through hellish training, refining the power of qi and blood within his body, which was extremely difficult, painful, and unimaginable.
But despite this, he stood at the fourth position on the Gold Core List with this method.
It shows how extraordinary he is.
He has opened up a new path.
There are rumors that he obtained an inheritance of pure physical cultivation from the ancient era, which is why he has his current strength.
The specifics, however, are unknown.
...
But no one can deny that Qizhou is truly powerful.
At this moment, he charged into the endless tide of beasts alone, wielding a hammer.
Like a killing god.
The ferocious beasts became even more bloodthirsty when they saw blood, going crazy and charging towards him.
Like an ocean, swallowing a lone boat.
The battle was not glamorous, but it created a strong visual impact on the onlookers.
One punch, one kick.
Shattering mountains, tearing apart the beasts, and causing the void to almost burst open.
The blood-red meteor hammer on his shoulder, as heavy as a mountain, seemed like a red ribbon in his hands, lightly falling on the head of any beast, causing it to explode on the spot.
But no matter how fierce he was, he was still just one person.
He continued to sustain injuries.
Over time, his condition worsened.
He took several steps back, causing the mountains to shake, panting heavily.
Just then.
A strong surge of life essence once again surged out from the crack.
Qizhou trembled all over, and his injuries instantly disappeared, his energy fully restored, as if he had been resurrected.
His pupils widened, staring at the ground beneath him, filled with excitement.
This is indeed a treasure land, a chance that belongs to me, Qizhou!
He even made up his mind that even after this trial in the ancient forest ended, he would frequently come back here to cultivate in the years in the Holy Realm.
This treasure land must not be wasted.
"You beasts, don't even think about touching my chance! Get lost!" He swung his hammers, sweeping them out, instantly killing a group of beasts.
The surrounding beasts, different species, and fierce birds were all dumbfounded.
What's going on?
This person clearly had injuries just now, and his aura weakened, but how did he suddenly become full of energy again?
The onlookers in the distance were also confused.
This Qingzhou is too fierce!
With such strength, is he really only ranked fourth on the Gold Core list?
Is there a problem with the rankings?
Qingzhou becomes more and more relaxed in battle. Every once in a while, a rich life essence surges from underground, healing his injuries and restoring his strength.
Even his physical cultivation has astonishingly increased while bathing in this life essence.
He killed seven in and out of the beast horde.
Fierce and boundless.
He couldn't help but boast, "Hahaha, even if the pure-blood descendant of an ancient divine beast is here today, daring to touch my opportunity, I will still kill without hesitation!"
Just at this moment.
The void trembled slightly, and a figure in white clothes stepped through the air, with a jade flute hanging from his waist.
Elegant and refined.
"It's Zhuge Changsheng!"
"Mountain and Sea Saint Child has arrived!"
"Oh my, could it be that we can see the top-ranked geniuses on the Gold Core list competing so early?"
"Don't talk, look carefully!"
Everyone was excited, thrilled, their faces flushed. These were the top geniuses of this generation in South State, and their confrontation attracted the attention of countless people.
Zhuge Changsheng looked at the beast tide below, then glanced at Qingzhou, who had killed seven in and out of the crowd, his brows slightly furrowed.
He could sense a mysterious formation from afar.
But when he got closer, it seemed like everything disappeared, which was really strange.
Just at this moment.
The rich life essence once again gushed out from that crack, in a larger quantity and more abundant than before.
Zhuge Changsheng's eyes lit up, and his gaze fell in the direction of the crack.
Sure enough!
His attention was not on that life essence.
At this moment, he sensed a faint fluctuation of a formation, as if it had merged with the natural world.
This formation here was recreated by Wang Xiu based on his own understanding.
It was not perfect, with a slight crack that caused the leakage of the aura in the Secret Realm.
But in Zhuge Changsheng's perception.
This formation was extremely profound, definitely a formation naturally formed by the heavens and earth.
"If I can comprehend this formation to three or five percent, no... even if it's just one percent, my formation path can undergo a transformation and have the capital to pursue the ancient sages!"
Zhuge Changsheng was extremely excited.
This was his opportunity!
It was the Blessed Land bestowed upon him by the heavens!
He descended towards that place, the jade flute turning slightly, placed near his mouth, gently blowing.
Musical notes scattered, turning into formation runes, filling the space between heaven and earth.
Instantly enveloping the entire battlefield.
Qingzhou saw this scene and roared, "Zhuge Changsheng, what are you doing?"
Zhuge Changsheng calmly said, "This place holds my great opportunity. I want to clear away all these annoying pests and focus on comprehending the formation path!"
Qingzhou's forehead turned black. What opportunity do you, a formation player, have here?
Disgusting, isn't it?
"Nonsense, this place is full of vitality, like a fairyland on earth. It is the treasure land of this Saint Child. What does it have to do with you? If you don't leave, don't force me to take action!"
Black lines appeared on Zhuge Changsheng's forehead.
You, a brute who knows nothing about formations, talking about treasure land, how disgusting?
As a genius, he naturally had his own temper.
He waved his sleeve arrogantly and said, "This Saint Child will not leave. What can you do to me?"
Qingzhou's feet stomped on the ground, his blood and qi surged, golden light covered his body, distorting the void, like a young war god, "Zhuge Changsheng, don't blame me for not giving you face. Today...
Even if it's just you, let alone you, Li Xuanqi, and Zhang Yuge, I'm not afraid of any of you!"
