Chapter 400: Yin Star Soul

"Extreme gaze silver flood dragon!"

In the void, Zhang Jian's massive solidified primordial spirit divine sense had long detected this creature's anomaly, a wisp of invisible cold light sweeping over his body.

Hiss hiss!!

Within the cold light, however, a giant flood dragon several tens of zhang in size was seen completely frozen in ice.

It was a colossal being similar to a flood dragon, but entirely silver in color, with a short, round skull, utterly lacking the elongate, dignified bearing of a flood dragon, instead appearing somewhat comical, and on its brow was a single pale gray eye.

The Extreme Gaze Silver Flood Dragon indeed possesses some bloodline of the Yin True Dragon; they are naturally high-ranking hunters in the void, possessing the strength of a Yin God Venerable upon reaching adulthood, adept at manipulating void power.

Yet in Zhang Jian's hands, such strange beasts are as fragile as infants, no different from the one-eyed star rat below.

Zhang Jian gazed at the stone in his hand, his primordial spirit divine sense merely glancing over it, and instantly recognized the treasure's origin.

This is a piece of Qingming Stone Mother, within which lies Qingming Divine Marrow, Qingming Divine Marrow being a heavenly treasure of one aspect of the primordial spirit; consuming it can greatly strengthen the Yin God and primordial spirit.

This is a kind of extremely precious treasure.

"Good stuff!"

Zhang Jian thought to himself, and in an instant he grabbed it and sent it into a law ring in his hand.

This is a Huangting Law Ring condensed from a fragment of the Huangting Blessed Land space, its inner space vast, very convenient for collecting treasures.

At the same time, a wisp of his mana shot out, instantly shattering the ice condensed in the void into countless fragments, though deep within the core, a silver-iron colored inner elixir was casually taken by Zhang Jian.

Mosquito legs are small, but they are still meat.

Do not waste them lightly.

After collecting this Qingming Stone Mother, Zhang Jian's form turned into flowing light as he wandered the periphery, relying on the wondrous reversal of the Eastern Emperor Treasure Mirror, he indeed discovered many heavenly treasures.

These heavenly treasures are mostly ores and metals.

Most fall within the category of high-grade spirit objects, and he had not encountered any rare treasures, divine objects, or heavenly and earthly marvels beyond that.

Zhang Jian estimated that the heavenly and earthly spirit objects in this outer layer ruins were quite limited, and even if any existed, they had likely been swept away by others, so he activated the Golden Crow Escape Light and headed toward the middle layer region.

The middle layer region is somewhat larger than the outer layer; gazing ahead, one sees a dim, flowing luster all around, with many dangerous dark vortices appearing in the distance.

And faintly appearing below was a huge bottomless wormhole, as if countless starlight, gravity, radiation, and gale winds were intertwined.

And just as he had entered the middle layer region, Zhang Jian sensed intense magical fluctuations ahead.

Before his eyes, in the depths of a pitch-black star field, countless scattered ruin fragments were strewn about, at this moment golden light and shadow like electricity darted through the darkness, leaving traces of golden chill wherever they passed.

This was a group of Yin Gold Centipedes.

Their speed was like light and electricity.

And the one being besieged was a figure of intense demonic aura, wearing double wings, with a sinister and fierce countenance; at this moment, countless whirlwinds swirled around his body, cyan-black winds intertwining, which he activated to slash and chop at these Yin Gold Centipedes, causing them to emit shrill cries.

Many terrifying Yin Gold Centipedes had already been forcibly torn apart, but the Yin Gold Centipedes from all directions were too numerous, the surroundings resembling a worm nest, and in the depths of the heavens, seven or eight heads, clearly much larger—indeed, dozens of zhang long—terrifying Yin Gold Centipedes lay coiled.

These were the Insect Kings!

The fluctuations they emitted had already surpassed the Primordial Spirit stage.

These Insect Kings were also eyeing him hungrily.

The winged demon god also looked somewhat startled; facing so many Yin Gold Centipedes and Insect Kings, he feared he could not escape.

These Insect Kings had not yet made a move!

Seeing this scene, Zhang Jian also felt a faint strangeness in his heart.

Yin Gold Centipedes are ancient aberrations, with copper skin and iron bones, coming and going like the wind; most terrifying is their toxin, which even Primordial Spirit powerhouses cannot withstand.

This demon god-level demon race powerhouse before him, it is unknown how he provoked them, but he was actually surrounded by this group of Yin Gold Centipedes.

Accompanied by cries, Zhang Jian then saw these Insect Kings finally unable to hold back, like a mad wind rushing to pounce upon that demon god.

A flash of golden-red light vanished, and then disappeared into the void.

The speed of these Insect Kings still surpassed that of ordinary Yin Gold Centipedes.

The direction of evolution for Yin Gold Centipedes lies in enhancing speed and toxin.

Next is defensive capability.

They do not excel in strength.

When their true forms reappeared, the demon god's body was seen swelling with intense cyan-black divine light, and in an instant he let out a painful cry.

In a moment, this demon god was bitten!

Countless cyan-black demonic qi rose into the sky, that demon god had already prepared to flee.

But it was already too late.

His form turned into a cyan-black gale as he rushed out, only to be enveloped by several strands of Yin Gold light from behind, countless tiny silver-gold lights intertwining within the cyan-black wind, from within came a hair-raising wail.

Zhang Jian coldly watched this scene, silently observing as this eagle clan demon god was completely devoured by the Yin Gold Centipedes.

But in that instant, he guessed why this eagle demon had provoked so many Yin Gold Centipedes.

As this eagle demon was completely devoured by the Yin Gold Centipedes, a strong innate spiritual machine burst forth from the place being eaten.

Zhang Jian had already seen the full appearance of the object emitting that innate spiritual machine.

It was a bowl-thick ice crystal, its entire body emitting a strong Yin spiritual machine, innate divine power radiating out, at this moment guarded by eight Yin Gold Centipedes like stars surrounding the moon.

"Yin Star Soul?"

Seeing this silver divine stone, Zhang Jian's interest was immediately piqued.

The Yin Star Soul is formed when the starlight of the Yin Star falls into the utmost yin place, nurtured for hundreds of thousands of years and condensed.

This is a heavenly and earthly divine object of Yin attribute.

Its grade surpasses the category of rare treasures.

Approaching that of marvelous treasures.

It seems that this eagle demon should have stolen the Yin Star Soul from the worm nest, which is why it provoked these Yin Gold Centipedes to wage great war.

"Although the Yin Star light is strong around here, how could a treasure like the Yin Star Soul be born?"

Zhang Jian pondered silently in his heart.

Though he had doubts in his mind, Zhang Jian naturally would not miss such a treasure!

With this yin divine object assisting him, he could fully perfect the Yin Refinement of Form Method!

Zhang Jian's figure slowly emerged from the void, merely stamping his foot lightly, and he saw resplendent white vapor and fierce red light appearing in the depths of the void.

The Yin Refinement Divine Light and the Golden Crow Refinement Spirit Light, two kinds of divine light continuously combined in the void, revealing a huge red-white yin-yang Taiji diagram floating in the depths of the starry sky; wherever it passed, vast amounts of true forms of yin-yang gold centipedes turned into pure black and white qi.

Even the eight-headed insect king had its figure bound similarly.

Their figures struggled violently, but within the yin-yang divine light, their figures collapsed segment by segment.

Under Zhang Jian's vast magical power, they could not even struggle, their figures collapsing at high speed.

As Zhang Jian reached out, he took the yin star soul into his hand, gazing at the crystal-clear treasure containing the vast yin origin in his palm, a hint of a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

At the same time, his vast primordial spirit divine sense also sensed that in the depths of the void, several hidden gazes had fallen upon him.

Among them were demon gods and also cultivators.

Zhang Jian merely held the yin star soul between two fingers, observing it calmly, and spoke in a tranquil and indifferent tone.

"Whoever comes forward, dies!"
