Chapter 368: High-Grade Magical Treasure

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

An hour later, the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect sent word to the Yu family, and within a stick of incenses time, representatives from both the Yu family and the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect headed to Shang Wu City to investigate the situation.

The threat of a Combined aperture tempering realm eerie being was boundless, but for now, this matter was only known from Chen Feis account. To determine if it was true or not, it was necessary to personally confirm it.

Half a day later, the news came back that Shang Wu City had indeed turned into a bizarre city. However, the exact cause of this transformation and whether it was due to a Combined aperture tempering realm eerie being could not be confirmed.

Nevertheless, the city exuded a heavy and oppressive atmosphere, far surpa.s.sing ordinary bizarre cities in terms of the immense power it contained.

The representatives sent by the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect and the Yu family were both strong cultivators in the Combined aperture tempering realm later stage. However, even they did not dare to enter Shang Wu City themselves.

After all, if there really was a Combined aperture tempering realm eerie being inside Shang Wu City, stepping into it would be a one-way trip with no chance of return. There would be no other outcome.

Im afraid 111 have to trouble you, Brother, Tong Zhongqiu said to Yu Shoucheng softly.

Tong Zhongqiu couldnt easily leave the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, as doing so would leave the sect vulnerable to an attack by Divine Flame Sects Jian Jingsheng. Even with various defensive formations, the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect wouldnt withstand an a.s.sault by a Combined aperture tempering realm cultivator.

Furthermore, the matter of the Combined aperture tempering realm eerie being needed to be confirmed for its accuracy.

As for whether they would need to join forces to eliminate the eerie being, that would be a matter for later. However, if they couldnt even confirm the accuracy of the information, it would be too negligent.

Combined aperture tempering realm eerie beings, even in the Endless Sea, are seldom heard of, Yu Shoucheng exclaimed.

It may not be true; perhaps its just a false alarm, Tong Zhongqiu whispered.

Go take a look, and well know if its true or false.

Yu Shoucheng smiled faintly, stood up, and politely bowed to Tong Zhongqiu. In the next moment, he transformed into a rainbow of light shooting into the sky, heading towards Shang Wu City.

Tong Zhongqiu stood below, sensing Yu Shouchengs aura receding into the distance, and his gaze showed some fluctuations.

In less than half an hour, Yu Shoucheng appeared within the territory of Shang Wu City.

In the sky, Yu Shoucheng stood hovering, with the night wind swirling around him, unable to get near him.

From a distant place just moments ago, Yu Shoucheng had sensed the aura of Shang Wu City, eerie and bizarre. At first, he didnt feel much difference compared to regular eerie cities.

However, as he drew closer, Yu Shoucheng finally sensed a hint of vitality within the chilling aura of Shang Wu City.

This kind of vitality was out of place in a bizarre city. It shouldnt belong to eerie phenomena.

Moreover, this vitality was growing steadily over time. At this moment, Shang Wu City seemed like an embryo, nurturing a new life.

Eerie phenomena and life had no connection, yet at this moment, they were inexplicably intertwined.

Contradiction and fusion, a chaotic sensation that seemed to drive one to madness.

Hmm!

As if sensing Yu Shouchengs gaze, the entire Shang Wu City trembled slightly, as if it had been startled. The sense of vitality disappeared in an instant, leaving only the eerie and bizarre aura circulating within Shang Wu City.

If we forcefully kill him at this moment

Yu Shoucheng sensed the changes in Shang Wu City, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes.

Human anomalies were formidable adversaries, but the gestating human anomaly, from another perspective, was a rare treasure.

With the methods obtained from the Endless Sea, if executed properly and with sufficient strength, it was entirely possible to forcibly refine Shang Wu City and infuse it into a magical treasure.

At that time, he could directly elevate a low-grade magical treasure to a medium-grade magical treasure.

If the quality of the magical treasure itself was good enough, there was even hope of elevating it to the level of a high-grade magical treasure.

A high-grade magical treasure was incredibly valuable.

With Yu Shouchengs current cultivation at the early stage of Combined aperture tempering realm, if he could possess a high-grade magical treasure and harness the power of such a treasure for his cultivation, he was confident that he could advance to the mid-stage of Combined aperture tempering realm within ten years.

And this was far from the end, as even in the mid-stage of Combined aperture tempering realm, with the support of a high-grade magical treasure, he could continue to accelerate his cultivation. If all aspects of resources were kept up, it was not impossible to advance to the late stage of Combined aperture tempering realm through continuous cultivation.

Even if he couldnt possess a high-grade magical treasure, a medium-grade magical treasure would still significantly increase Yu Shouchengs cultivation speed.

Back when the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect melted down two low-grade magical treasures in the hopes of creating a medium-grade magical treasure to aid in their cultivation, it was for this reason.

And if Yu Shoucheng possessed a medium-grade magical treasure, in a one-on-one battle, whether it was Tong Zhongqiu from the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect or Jian Jinsheng from the Divine Flame Sect, none of them would be his match.

After some careful planning, the Immortal Cloud City would be renamed the Yu City. Although this region had thin spiritual energy, with the resources surrounding the Immortal Cloud City, it might not be impossible to cultivate the next Combined aperture tempering realm cultivator for the Yu family.

Thinking about all of this, Yu Shouchengs breathing became somewhat rapid. All that was needed was to enter Shang Wu City, find its core, and forcefully refine it.

Then, all the visions he had just imagined would become a reality. The Yu family would truly become the rulers of the Immortal Cloud City, and even in the future, when they returned to the Endless Sea, they would have a place of their own.

What a formidable soul-hooking technique! Its a pity that we didnt meet over a hundred years ago.

The fluctuations in Yu Shouchengs aura, which had been unsettled for a moment, returned to calm, and his eyes regained their clarity. The thoughts that had been stirred within him were directly suppressed by Yu Shoucheng.

After Yu Shoucheng spoke, he received no response, as if he were talking to himself.

With a faint smile, Yu Shoucheng waved his right hand, and a seal materialized in the air.

The seal swelled in the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it grew to the size of a mountain. The next moment, the seal crashed down and covered Shang Wu City.

Shang Wu City trembled violently, and countless eerie auras burst forth, resisting the invasion of the seal.

The elemental energy from all directions surged violently due to the conflict between the two sides, like a raging river and a roaring sea. More than ten miles away, the two Combined aperture tempering realm cultivators from the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect and the Yu family, witnessing the changes in Shang Wu City, involuntarily held their breaths.

In the realm of Combined aperture tempering, one soars high above, freely navigating between the heavens and the earth. The elemental energy of the world is under their control, and with a simple technique, they possess the power to cause mountains to crumble and the earth to quake.

This is true greatness, an existence that cannot be defeated merely by numbers.

A quarter of an hour later, with a cold snort from Yu Shoucheng, the seal shattered, but it did not dissipate completely. Instead, it transformed into countless seals that spread throughout the four corners of Shang Wu City.

The earths energy connected, and elemental energy permeated the seals. In the blink of an eye, a formation took shape, completely enveloping Shang Wu City. While the formations power wasnt strong, it could slightly hinder Shang Wu Citys absorption of the elemental energy of the heavens and earth.

The eerie being in Shang Wu City was still in an embryonic state and couldnt move freely, but the power it possessed was already inconceivable. Relying solely on Yu Shoucheng, it couldnt be suppressed.

Given this situation, Yu Shoucheng chose to block the elemental energy, a retaliation for the emotions he had stirred up earlier.

Finally, Yu Shoucheng glanced at Shang Wu City one last time, his figure swaying, and he disappeared into the air.

Over ten miles away, the Combined aperture tempering realm cultivators from the Yu family, their ears slightly twitching, received a voice transmission from Yu Shoucheng. Together with the Combined aperture tempering realm cultivators from the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, they began their journey back to Immortal Cloud City.

The situation here had been investigated, and it indeed housed a Combined aperture tempering realm eerie being. This was no longer a matter that could be resolved by cultivators below the Combined aperture tempering realm.

To eradicate this eerie being, it was necessary to gather several Combined aperture tempering realm cultivators and launch a concerted attack, and even then, success was uncertain.

However, a.s.sembling multiple Combined aperture tempering realm cultivators was far from easy!

One day later, news of the Combined aperture tempering realm eerie being in Shang Wu City spread from Immortal Cloud City to all corners of the kingdom at an astonis.h.i.+ng speed. This news sent shockwaves throughout the entire dynasty.

Everyone who heard this news and understood its implications couldnt help but feel a sense of dread and astonishment.

This eerie being had originated from Shang Wu City and had since completed its transformation. Although it still couldnt move, it was no longer as helpless as it appeared now.

In the future, wherever Shang Wu City went, it could be described as desolate, with bizarre phenomena running rampant. Wherever it pa.s.sed, neither humans nor livestock could survive.

Furthermore, Shang Wu City would undoubtedly move towards densely populated areas. Due to the nature of eerie beings, they were compelled to feed on humans and cultivators, which set them apart fundamentally from other quirks.

The name of Master Xi Lian resounded far and wide once again, but this time it had turned into a curse, an eternal curse. However, no matter how vehemently he was cursed, it couldnt have any impact on Master Xi Lian.

In Qinhai City, countless people began to flee.

Their proximity to Shang Wu City was too perilous. After the eerie being had completed its transformation, the first place it might target was Qinhai City. The people of Qinhai City couldnt afford to gamble on whether Shang Wu City would be eliminated before completing its transformation.

If they won the gamble, everyone would rejoice. But if they lost, everything would be lost. No one was willing to risk their lives on such a gamble.

Although the world outside the city was dangerous, at least it was better than sitting idly by.

Within the Primordial Sword Sect, Chen Fei naturally heard everything. However, when it came to the eerie being in Shang Wu City, Chen Fei was powerless to resolve it. All he could do was continuously elevate his own cultivation realm.

This time in Shang Wu City, if it werent for Chen Feis solid foundation in cultivation, he might have already become trapped within it. Therefore, in matters of cultivation, there was never enough, and there could never be too much.

There was no limit to his advancement!

Thanks to the generous gift from the Yashan Sect, Chen Feis speed in opening up his acupoints remained astonis.h.i.+ng.

While opening up his acupoints, Chen Fei also simplified the four techniques he had retrieved. Simplifying the Primordial Sword Scripture was like nested dolls, with the third layer of cultivation nested within the second.

As for the other three inheritances, the Blade-Slaying Sword and Water-Jade Sword were straightforward, each pointing to two sword techniques within their respective doors. However, what left Chen Fei astounded was the Great Thunder Sword.

There was nothing left for it to point to, and yet it still simplified into something like this.
