Protagonist:

Yu Zhangsheng

The Xuan Gui's tone clearly carried a hint of excitement, its breathing imperceptibly hastened.

"I can sense that below, the aura of the Heavenly One Divine Water is very strong……"

As a top-tier spirit beast of the water, the Xuan Gui naturally had a unique perception of this water-attribute heavenly material and earthly treasure.

And the special terrain of Hui Shui Shan could amplify this perception to the extreme; not only in this regard, but even its combat power and cultivation base would receive corresponding enhancement. It could be said that the Xuan Gui was like a fish in water in this body of water.

This was also why its full-power strike could slay the Purple Robe Cultivator; of course, the main reason was still that this strike had consumed its origin power, and emitting it again was obviously unrealistic.

"Alright."

Hearing the Xuan Gui's words, Yu Zhangsheng took a deep breath, no longer hesitated, and with a flick of his sleeve, the Xuan Gui emerged from his Inner Landscape and floated on the water surface.

"Come up."

The Xuan Gui turned its head blankly, looked at Yu Zhangsheng, and spoke lightly.

Yu Zhangsheng hesitated slightly, exhaled a breath upon hearing this, nodded, and leaped onto the Xuan Gui's broad shell. A chill rose from the soles of his feet, constantly striking his mind and spirit.

"You are the first person to step behind me."

The Xuan Gui turned its head, glanced at Yu Zhangsheng, and said so.

Yu Zhangsheng remained silent, a forced smile appeared on his face, and he scratched the tip of his nose.

"Hehe, it's fine, hold on tight. There are strong undercurrents below."

The Xuan Gui shook its head lightly, chuckled, paid no mind, moved its four limbs, lowered its head, and plunged into the water.

"Gulu gulu……"

A faint light curtain enveloped Yu Zhangsheng. As they entered the water, the light dimmed accordingly, and Yu Zhangsheng could clearly feel that the calmness felt from the water surface had vanished at this moment; the fluctuations of the water flow were especially obvious now.

And as the depth decreased, the scouring of the surrounding water flow became stronger, to the point that the sound of a rushing torrent could be heard behind, like muffled thunder exploding by his ears.

Even with Yu Zhangsheng's Foundation Establishment cultivation base, he felt a strong sense of shock. Fortunately, with the Xuan Gui's protection, most of this shock was isolated.

And the Xuan Gui's aura became increasingly profound in this deep water.

The light kept dimming, and the concepts of time and space became blurred at this moment. Everything around gradually became invisible; only the turbulent water flow around proved that one person and one beast were still continuing to dive.

Occasionally, some spirit beasts appeared around, but after sensing the Xuan Gui's aura, they merely observed and quickly left.

Later on, it was already bottomless. Light had lost its space to exist at this moment. Only the occasional crimson beast eyes floating in the darkness proved that this place was extraordinary.

The dense darkness became the only main theme here. Even divine sense was under great pressure at this moment and difficult to project. The terrifying water pressure surged open wave after wave; Yu Zhangsheng just felt it once and was secretly alarmed.

Unlike Yu Zhangsheng's silent tsk-tsking, the Xuan Gui's state was obviously much more excited, greedily absorbing the water flows from all directions, and its cultivation base and aura rose at an unimaginable speed.

I don't know how long passed, until faint light was heard in the distance. Yu Zhangsheng's mind shook, and the Xuan Gui stopped at this moment, hiding in the dark and silently observing.

"I said how I could sense the aura of the Heavenly One Divine Water. It turns out someone is constantly breaking the accompanying protection of the Heavenly One Divine Water, causing the aura to leak and be sensed by me."

The Xuan Gui's divine sense echoed in Yu Zhangsheng's mind. Yu Zhangsheng was stunned, narrowed his eyes to gaze into the distance, and finally saw the scene below clearly.

Below, blood light rippled open, especially obvious in this darkness. At the center of the blood light, a blurry figure could be clearly seen. Wrapped in the blood light was a patch of seven-colored water light. The source of the seven-colored water light was a unique water droplet.

This water droplet was like a teardrop, crystal clear, emitting boundless light. Just seeing it made one involuntarily immersed in it. Standing in the void, it seemed to weigh ten thousand jun, firm as a rock.

"This is, the Heavenly One Divine Water?!"

Yu Zhangsheng sucked in a breath, his eyes carrying a hint of trance, looking at the water droplet. His mind and spirit were completely absorbed, and he involuntarily stretched out his palm, reaching toward its direction.

"Hmm? Wake up!"

The Xuan Gui coldly hummed, its voice turning into rolling heavenly thunder, exploding in Yu Zhangsheng's mind.

"Hah……"

Yu Zhangsheng suddenly shivered, the obsession in his eyes receded, a hint of shame appeared on his face, and he bowed with clasped hands toward the Xuan Gui.

"Since ancient times, heavenly materials and earthly treasures all carry a natural absorbing power. Your cultivation base is still shallow, so being immersed in it is normal."

The Xuan Gui spoke with a humming voice, not minding Yu Zhangsheng's loss of composure. His gaze swept over the Heavenly One Divine Water and landed on the figure before it.

"Barring accidents, the master of that Golden Core Cultivator from before is this person. I sensed the aura of that Golden Core's Life Soul on him."

"Oh, is that so?"

Yu Zhangsheng shook his head upon hearing this, his eyes carrying a hint of divine stone, exhaled a breath of turbid qi, and looked at Yan Ta.

Fortunately, this place was dark, and divine sense was also under extremely strong pressure. Plus, the Xuan Gui's concealment meant the other party obviously had no awareness of Yu Zhangsheng's arrival.

"It seems those eyeing this Heavenly One Divine Water are not just you. Fortunately, thanks to him. Looking at his appearance, at most in another day, the Heavenly One Divine Water's self-protection will be worn away."

"By then, we won't need to bother anymore. For now, let's just wait slowly. Wait until the timing is right, then make a move to seize it."

The Xuan Gui spoke lightly. As his words fell, his four limbs also shrank into his shell. The aura on his body vanished completely in an instant, merging with the surrounding environment.

"Turtle Breath Technique……"

Yu Zhangsheng whispered softly in his heart. Under the cover of the Turtle Breath Technique, even his traces seemed to have completely disappeared from this world. Unless one's cultivation base far surpassed his, otherwise it would be difficult to search for him.

"The young master mentioned by the Purple Robe Cultivator……"

Yu Zhangsheng glanced at Yan Ta, whose mind and spirit were completely immersed in wearing away the Heavenly One Divine Water. The next moment, he closed his eyes, adjusting his essence, qi, and spirit to peak condition, ready for battle. Things had come to this point, so there was naturally no possibility of retreat.

Moreover, Yu Zhangsheng had also sensed Yan Ta's aura below. Early Golden Core stage, but much richer than an ordinary Early Golden Core stage. However, in this deep water place, the advantage was on our side. Plus, with the element of surprise, it was not impossible to fight.

"Heaven and earth's supreme treasure, obtained by the destined one. Let's wait a bit first. Wait until the Heavenly One Divine Water is fully born, which is also the time to make a move…… Moreover, there is such a grudge between us……"

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle……"

Time passed bit by bit slowly. The deep water was like an abyss. In the darkness, the seven-colored water light was being eroded by the blood light, point by point worn away, revealing the radiance of the Heavenly One Divine Water within, like a dream and an illusion.

"Soon, soon……"

As the seven-colored water light was worn away bit by bit, Yan Ta's originally calm expression also revealed a trace of excitement that could not be concealed, his breathing becoming slightly rapid, the fervor in his gaze growing ever more intense.

Yan Ta's entire mind and spirit were immersed in the Heavenly One Divine Water before him, to the extent that, facing Yu Changsheng's arrival, he did not detect it in the slightest.

And similarly with mind and spirit in turmoil, the excited person, was also Yu Changsheng watching secretly.

The seven-colored water light was worn away bit by bit, and the aura of the Heavenly One Divine Water revealed became increasingly sensed by him, carrying a vast and boundless meaning, emitting seven-colored dreamlike light, feeling its waves, his heart stirred with ripples, circles rippling open.

Whoever took one look would have some realization; this is a heaven-and-earth supreme treasure, its value even more impossible to estimate.

Yu Changsheng had a strong premonition that with this treasure, it would be enough for his Xuan Gui to advance further, and even his cultivation base and Spirit Platform would leap and break through by virtue of it.

"It's here!"

As the last layer of seven-colored water light was thoroughly worn away, the Xuan Gui hummed once, its voice exploding in Yu Changsheng's mind.

At the same time, the fervent look on Yan Ta's face reached its peak at this moment, nearly obsessively watching the Heavenly One Divine Water revealing its true face, slowly reaching out his hand toward it.

"The Heavenly One Divine Water... is mine, and it's not in vain that I've held fast here for half a year."

Yan Ta's heart surged with excitement, his gaze excitedly watching the Heavenly One Divine Water, his body also trembling slightly; just as he reached out, wanting to touch the Heavenly One Divine Water in that instant, his expression suddenly moved, his face changed, he abruptly turned his head to look behind, his arm blocking in front.

Water waves rippled open; in this deep abyss, a giant force surged toward Yan Ta. Yu Changsheng's figure burst out from the water flow, the golden long spear in his hand fiercely hurled at Yan Ta! Boom—! The spear shot out like a dragon, rolling up the eight directions; this water domain's undercurrents surged. Yan Ta's face changed greatly, revealing a leaden and incredulous color. Caught off guard, his arm barely blocked in front, parrying this golden long spear; his body also flew backward in the water flow, letting out a muffled grunt.

"Who are you?"

However, Yan Ta is after all a Golden Core expert; although he was ambushed unprepared, his terrifying strength is placed there; this strike did not cause you much injury.

And what surprised Yan Ta and was unexpected was merely that in this ghost place, he actually still encountered another person; after all, to reach this place's secrets, the surrounding violent water pressure can almost instantly destroy a Foundation Establishment cultivator; even Golden Core cannot persist long; it is difficult to move an inch.

And if he did not have corresponding treasures to use for confrontation, it would also be impossible for him to hold fast here for so long.

Seeing one strike fail, Yu Changsheng was also not surprised; facing Yan Ta's surprise he did not speak, but instead waved his sleeve, his right palm gripping, in an instant dazzling golden light flashed, slowly condensing into a pole with sharp edge fully revealed golden long spear, emitting boundless light, once again whistling as it was hurled at him.

"Yu Changsheng!"

Yan Ta's gaze condensed; his dual hands waved, forming hand seals emitting endless blood light. This blood light surged, in this deep water dark place appearing exceptionally demonic, condensing into flower after flower representing disaster and misfortune, slowly blooming.

"Blood Flowers Bloom on the Other Shore!"

Hum hum hum...

Waves surged; flower after flower of blood flowers continuously bloomed, endlessly bleak, moreover carrying a sky-piercing blood fiend aura, suddenly erupting, breaking open Yu Changsheng's golden long spear thrown with all-or-nothing resolve without the slightest obstruction.

However Yu Changsheng's expression was calm, coldly watching Yan Ta; he never thought he could truly rely on a sneak attack to injure him, but merely to delay time for the true killing move.

"Spirit Beast Four Extremes Array!"

Boom—; words just fell, southeast northwest four directions, four shocking auras instantly erupted, rolling the water domain void. In the eastern position, Cai Xing appeared within, a pair of deer antlers winding and coiling, emitting endless green light; where the light covered, shocking great trees were born from nothing, forming a world of their own.

And in the western position opposite Cai Xing, Chi Lian Purgatory Dragon's body coiled, roaring to the sky; the dragon chant sound trembled continuously; clusters of scorching flames suddenly appeared, illuminating the ten directions' darkness, distantly resonating with Cai Xing, following those shocking great trees, burning fiercely.

In the southern position, the Golden-Winged Great Eagle's dual wings waved; sharp light flashed in its keen eyes; clusters of huge gales continuously condensed, stirring the water flow, raising huge waves. Under this gale, the great trees condensed by Cai Xing tilted; the flames emitted by Chi Lian Purgatory Dragon became even more violent.

And occupying the northernmost position was the Xuan Gui suppressing; in its indifferent beast eyes, a faint red glow flickered; its sturdy four limbs merely swayed lightly, and instantly the turbulent water flow beneath its feet condensed into clusters of vortices, supporting its body aloft, appearing even more tall and high.

Even more, there was endless blue light enveloping this water domain; within the blue light, water flow stagnated; a shocking terrifying aura continuously brewed and rose.

It was precisely the complete version of the Spirit Beast Four Extremes Array! "Wind Fire Water Wood! Spirit Beast Four Extremes, arise!"

Yu Changsheng's face turned a flash of pale; he endured the dizziness in his mind, feeling the magic power, soul power, and fleshly power wildly flowing away inside his body, panting slightly.

This was still the first time Yu Changsheng had summoned all four spirit beasts with full force; the combat power exchanged in an instant was terrifying beyond compare, already reaching the Golden Core level, but the consumption was indeed extremely shocking; merely a few breaths, and he felt powerless to continue.

"No good, at most persist one minute, must fight quick and decide fast!"

Yu Changsheng shook his head, gaze turning fierce, looking at Yan Ta who was in shock; both arms pressed down! "Boom—!!"

Water flow exploded open, revealing a huge cavity; huge waves surged again, smashing to pieces the blood flowers originally blooming here one by one!

"Pfft..."

Yan Ta's face instantly turned white; his divine ability broken, amidst disordered cultivation base, a mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out, spraying into the void; his face alternating between shock and doubt watching Yu Changsheng; just wanting to move, yet discovering the surrounding void, with the blue light emitted by Xuan Gui enveloping, had long been sealed.

Yan Ta took a deep breath, suppressing the shock in his heart; brows and eyes sunken, watching Yu Changsheng; killing intent in his eyes thoroughly erupted; moreover crimson fiend qi suddenly rose behind him, in a moment condensing into a whole-body blood-colored giant figure's shadow, suppressing the void.

"Crack crack..."

Space revealed pitch-black cracks; from within blew out violent blood wind; thus a storm rose; Yan Ta's figure suddenly swelled up; he let out a low roar; crimson light flashed in his eyes; violent intent obvious.

"I wasn't going to come find you, but you instead took the initiative to deliver yourself to my door; since it's like this, it also saves me the trouble!" (Chapter End)
