To take it a step further would mean truly belonging to the mythological Immortal Gods.
But in reality, for ordinary cultivators, a Primordial Spirit Master is already akin to a mythological existence.
Each one possesses an incredibly long lifespan.
At this moment, Zhang Jian frowned as he watched that strike. He did not make a move; he noticed there was another concealed powerhouse in front of Dongling Square.
He was recently stirred, mainly because this powerhouse revealed a sliver of his presence.
This trace of presence was extraordinarily magnificent.
In Zhang Jian’s sight, as that ghostly light appeared at the center of Emperor Jingwu’s brow, it came within a hair’s breadth from him, yet it could not advance an inch further.
The void had completely twisted, revealing an endless chaos manifesting around, transforming the immense square into a terrifying, fragmented space.
A vast true intent of chaos spread out.
The earth became a chessboard, Yin and Yang severed into chess pieces, and countless black-and-white lights shuttled through the void, like countless blades slicing through it, with a dark figure darting through the black-and-white light within.
From afar, Zhang Jian remained unusually solemn, his gaze falling on, what turned out to be, a composite Primordial Spirit Technique.
That Chaos Chessboard was extraordinarily majestic and massive.
"However, since it’s a chaos-type Primordial Spirit Immortal Technique, it should be supplemented with chaos, space, and extinction types of Primordial Spirit Immortal Techniques for the best combination. But observing this Primordial Spirit Master’s approach, he is taking the path of chaos birth, primordial beginning, along with Yin Yang Five Elements, which does not form a complete system..."
Zhang Jian found it somewhat peculiar.
Such a combination would not be complete, and if he encountered a powerful Primordial Spirit Master, flaws would be quickly found, leading to a breakthrough in the Primordial Spirit Immortal Technique.
This is a case of twice the effort for half the result.
"Or is this just a blinding technique, purposely deceiving another Primordial Spirit Master?"
A thought of this flashed through Zhang Jian’s mind.
Yet, amidst the endless chaos, a boundlessly dark black lotus suddenly emerged, carrying a hint of the indomitable divine power of Ten Thousand Tribulations, persisting through chaos, yet continuously being born and extinguished.
"Ten Thousand Tribulations Black Lotus!"
Zhang Jian’s expression turned solemn, as this was another legendary Primordial Spirit Immortal Technique.
The Ten Thousand Tribulations Black Lotus becomes stronger through tribulations, further allowing the cultivation of an indelible Dharma Body.
But this Primordial Spirit Immortal Technique is usually paired with another rumored Immortal Technique.
As this thought passed through Zhang Jian’s mind, the immensely huge black lotus appeared, and then a pitch-black magic sword condensed into form.
The sword’s light slashed forward, resembling fragmented chaos turning into endless world-ending tribulations. The tribulation qi flooded, sweeping between heaven and earth.
This was the Ten Thousand Tribulations Destruction Sword.
It is also a tremendously powerful Primordial Spirit Immortal Technique, usually paired with the Ten Thousand Tribulations Black Lotus, a classic combination Immortal Technique in the cultivation realm.
The opponent evidently did not follow the hidden Primordial Spirit Master’s thoughts of controlling the Chaos Chessboard, exploiting those flaws, but instead, directly broke through.
One sword broke ten thousand magics.
In the chaos, a point of ghostly light had already manifested its true form.
A tall, masked figure in a black robe with deep, mysterious eyes, holding a magic sword filled with overwhelming tribulation fiend energy in his hand, instantly transformed into a fierce sword light speeding toward a point in the depths of the chaos.
In the chaos, at this moment, a faint voice came out, commenting.
"Good eyesight!"
Pausing slightly, a light laughter continued, "But your Dao Practice is far lacking!"
A blue-robed old man appeared in the chaos, whom Zhang Jian had seen before.
This was the National Guardian Powerhouse who had always remained hidden deep in the Dragon Vein.
With a clench into the void, as if the universe manifested in his palm, a majestic, vast true intent emerged from his hand, creating a chaotic torrent that swallowed and spit, reversing the tremendous power.
The Ten Thousand Tribulations Destruction Sword shattered layer by layer, as if an immense chaotic force struck before a figure, which instantly transformed into five-colored radiance dispersing, forming a five-colored canopy shielding in front.
"Qianhai True Monarch?"
A startled and furious voice emitted from within.
Yet, under such majestic power, the five-colored canopy disintegrated within moments, but was immediately reinforced, as a small flag with five colors circulating appeared above his head.
The majestic Spirit Treasure’s brilliance swirled forth, where a layer of five-colored radiant clouds blossomed again, forming a massive five-colored barrier, resembling the foundational manifestation of the world as the Five Elements, firmly protecting himself.
Under the Five Elements Banner, Wuxiang Divine Monarch’s face was of shock and anger, his body’s magic power greatly depleted.
Though this strike didn’t severely injure him, it exposed most of his trump card, revealing his cards.
But he didn’t care about these now, gazing at the figure in the chaos with a grim expression.
Qianhai True Monarch.
This is a legendary Primordial Spirit True Monarch, yet such a powerhouse was hidden deep in the Daqian Dragon Vein.
Or perhaps this True Monarch was always the puppet master behind Daqian.
His mind raced, a trace of ruthlessness flashing under his eyes.
"Five Elements Ascension Banner, Great Five Elements Reincarnation Divine Light; your identity is also not simple, a Great True Master from a renowned righteous sect mingling within a group of evil and heretical beings, I am also curious about your origins!"
Qianhai True Monarch’s leisurely voice resonated, his eyes locked on Wuxiang Divine Monarch before him, swiftly sealing with his hands, causing the Chaos Chessboard to rumble violently, resembling the roar of chaos.
Inside the pavilion, Zhang Jian looked toward the changes within the East Emperor’s Treasure Mirror with a solemn expression.
The name of Qianhai True Monarch was unfamiliar to him, but being called a True Monarch, his Dao Practice must be extremely formidable.
And the method employed by that other Great True Master at the end was intriguing.
The Five Elements Ascension Banner and Great Five Elements Reincarnation Divine Light are the signature techniques of the Five Elements Immortal Sect.
"Could it be that the Five Elements Immortal Sect also has its eyes on Daqian as a prime target?"
Zhang Jian’s mind turned swiftly, his heart secretly troubled.
Whether it was Qianhai True Monarch or this Great True Master, their techniques were beyond imagination.
The Five Elements Immortal Sect is even more troublesome.
It’s a domineering giant.
Just then, Zhang Jian’s brow twitched, as the East Emperor’s Treasure Mirror inside flickered with light, revealing a blood-red light silently circling around Dongling Square, gradually retreating.
This was also a Primordial Spirit Master.
This Primordial Spirit Master was extremely cunning, sinister, always hiding in the shadows, attempting a sneak attack.
However, the appearance of Qianhai True Monarch made him sense danger.
This was the Blood Demon Ancestor of the Blood Shadow Demon Sect.
The terrifying Dao Practice displayed by Qianhai True Monarch made him feel highly apprehensive, deciding to change plans and leave first.
A True Monarch Level powerhouse is not something that they, as a small group, can contend with.
Unless the Blood Sea Saint Monarch or the ancestors of the other two sects joined forces, they might be able to contend somewhat.
His gaze wavered, as his figure dashed toward the direction of the Palace of the Imperial Harem.
Since arriving, he wasn’t willing to leave without any gain.
Inside the pavilion, upon seeing that blood light sweep towards the direction of the Harem, Zhang Jian’s brow twitched, while a faint voice echoed in his mind.
"Young one, leave that ’little demon’ of the Blood Shadow Demon Sect to you!"
