Chapter 386
The Tianlun Shuttle was specially forged to break formations; anything rich in formation patterns will be restrained by it. Although the Green Mother Dragon Pattern Ancient Bell was forged from Green Mother Celestial Crystal, it also contains a complex Spirit-Gathering Formation within. If the two collide, Long Xiu'ao feels uneasy about the Green Mother Dragon Pattern Ancient Bell.
"The Tianlun Shuttle has appeared in the world—why hasn't Luyan Valley taken action yet?"
Long Xiu'ao recalled what Situ Fang had said earlier in the Star Deliberation Tower, turned his head to see Situ Fang standing cold and unmoved, and instantly his anger flared, shouting furiously.
Upon hearing this, Situ Fang's face turned ashen; the top-tier experts of the Qingchun Sect are simply outrageously wicked, relying on the Tianlun Shuttle to break the defense of the Green Mother Dragon Pattern Ancient Bell. Now, with all cultivators of the Eight Great Sects watching the scene in the sky on the battlefield, under the eyes of everyone, isn't this just drawing hatred toward Luyan Valley?
Seeing Long Xiu'ao's gloomy expression, he felt a sense of apprehension in his heart.
This old thing, upon seeing the Tianlun Shuttle about to attack the Green Mother Dragon Pattern Ancient Bell, had lost its previous unmatched arrogance; his face now showed only hesitation and worry, feeling the pain deeply, fearing the bell might be damaged.
"Boom—rumble—rumble—"
Tear—rip—rip.
Seeing the Tianlun Shuttle recalled by the Void Beast Bone, Situ Fang of Luyan Valley felt great joy in his heart—he had one less arduous task. If he could seize the opportunity to eliminate that golden figure, he would surely undermine the Qingchun Sect's prestige and boost the confidence of the Eight Great Sect Alliance cultivators in attacking the Qingchun Sect.
"The Sect Master of Luyan Valley possesses terrifying power—he has only ever taken three disciples in his lifetime, a supreme existence who has held sway over Huanyu for three thousand years. What heaven's pride has he not seen? For Yanling to be accepted as his personal chief disciple, he must possess some extraordinary secret."
Situ Fang took a step forward, his vast voice echoing in the air: "Please, Martial Nephew Yanling, act and recall the Tianlun Shuttle."
What terrifying thing lies within that ink jade box, requiring the heart's blood of a million cultivators to open? Cultivators from all major sects stare fixedly at the ink jade box, determined to see through it completely.
Countless cultivators in the field were shocked and dismayed—the black mist within the ink box had solidified, filling the entire space, emitting a power that made hearts tremble.
Yanling's eyebrows suddenly twitched.
The Void Ferocious Beast, born from the cosmic rifts in Huanyu, is innately the favored child governing the Void. However, this race is relatively mysterious; it is said that if they fall, their corpses will dissolve along with their souls and weapons.
Only after the Golden Peng King sensed no malice did he speak cautiously.
In his hand appeared a black jade box, its lid covered with a black mysterious rune; strange black electric arcs flickered, causing ripples to appear even in the Void.
"Honey, this is my husband—I'm so handsome, my great husband."
The Void Beast Bone is a product formed by combining vengeful spirits and beast bones through sacrificial refinement; the vengeful spirits are bound within the beast bones, their resentment soaring to the heavens, unable to be dissolved in Huanyu.
"Please, Martial Nephew, casually slay this lackey to avoid future troubles after letting the tiger return to the mountain."
"You can't even hold in your bowel movements without breaking—do you think you're worthy of him?"
This is the lament of widows, the helplessness of the five-guarantee households, the loneliness of bachelors, the regret of leftover women, and the grievances of married women—men who hear it go mad, women who hear it stop menstruating.
As the Golden Peng King's words fell, the Void Beast Bone let out a dull beast roar; under the horrified gazes of the crowd, it nodded back and forth.
Disciples within the great formation were instantly struck as if by lightning; the powerful impact made cultivators feel dizzy in their minds, all of them grimacing with bared teeth.
The Golden Peng King murmured.
What great fortune has Luyan Valley encountered?
They actually managed to obtain the bone of a Void Beast! Looking at the vengeful spirits on the Void Beast Bone, it is clearly the result of some supreme expert forcibly suppressing the Void Beast's soul within its bone, using the ink jade box to command it at critical moments and reverse the Void's use.
The experts of Huanyu's various sects finally understood why the Tianlun Shuttle can counter all formations—it is forged from the tooth of the Void Beast Bone, containing the primordial Void runes within, capable of decomposing the Void runes in all major formations, destroying the formation's structure, and ultimately causing the great formation to collapse completely.
"Are you going to follow me?"
"He's really too handsome—I really want to have his monkey babies, but his background is too strong and his strength unmatched; I can only fulfill this dream through nocturnal emission."
"The Five Great Bodhisattvas pity the beings of the final calamity, those who suffer and endure evil, making it hard for them to be reborn in the Yellow Springs."
In the Universe Cultivation World, cultivators' treasures are divided into four levels from high to low: Heaven, Earth, Mystic, and Yellow, each level further divided into three grades.
Why not try the Universal Salvation True Scripture of Xiguangsi?
The Golden Peng King was greatly startled—he never imagined that the Tianlun Shuttle in Luyan Valley was actually transformed from the tooth of a fearsome ferocious beast; the beast's soul and resentment soared to the heavens, its killing intent surging wildly. After being summoned and controlled, casting a spell to recall the Tianlun Shuttle back into its tooth form.
Roar—roar—roar.
The Void Beast Bone let out a low, mournful howl, suddenly vanishing from its spot, then reappearing before the Golden Peng King, constantly nudging him with its fleshless beast head, startling the Golden Peng King greatly.
He shot out sharp light from his eyes, threw out four transparent crystal balls, which, after mana input, chanted the Crossing Tribulation True Scripture.
"I take the exam!!!!"
However, he discovered that the mysterious chanting voice could not only liberate the vengeful spirits of the Void Beast Bone but also quickly dissolve his Soul-Summoning Curse.
"Could it be the bone of the legendary Void Ferocious Beast?" Xiyang's voice from the Taiyin Holy Land sounded somewhat urgent.
Yanling pinched complex hand seals with his hands, murmured softly, stepped on strange footwork on the ground, and simultaneously pointed a finger at his brow; the remaining cultivators' heart blood continued to restore the blood evil elemental power of the Void Beast Bone.
Yanling listened to the chanting voice emanating from the crystal balls in the air; his face showed immense shock—the mysterious chanting voice directly struck the soul foundation within his soul body, continuously cleansing him with mighty power; even after hearing it many times, he felt the urge to let go of everything and escape the sea of suffering.
After the Golden Peng King input Spiritual Power into the Tianlun Shuttle, it suddenly transformed into a streak of aurora rushing toward the sky, turning into a mysterious golden rhombus object, shining as brightly as the sun with golden divine light, mysterious Void runes spraying from all sides, and it shot at extreme speed toward the Green Mother Dragon Pattern Ancient Bell.
"Let me tell you—if you want Yanling's body, just keep thinking, keep thinking, and in your dreams you'll be able to roll around; if you get anxious, you can even paralyze him!"
"The waters of the Universe Cultivation World are indeed very deep—earth cultivators' understanding of it is still too little. The Golden Peng King leading us hidden forces is correct." Muya, recalling the Golden Peng King's words, said apprehensively.
Two columns of bloody light flew out from the rolling black mist, tearing open the space as if split by immense power into two giant mouths; the cultivators of all major sects discovered within the rolling black mist a massive purple beast bone.
The Golden Peng King's palm suddenly went numb; the controlled Tianlun Shuttle jerked free from his grasp, flying toward the tooth cavity of the Void Beast Bone, then merging with it—this left all cultivators present utterly astonished.
"Yanling, my husband, if you get tired from casting a spell, just say 'ha' and I'll nurse you."
The originally violent Void Beast Bone, which had recovered after absorbing cultivators' heart blood, gradually became calm as the mysterious chanting voice progressed, seemingly about to lose connection with the ink jade box; Yanling felt unable to calm his heart.
In the alliance camp, whether male or female, Universe Cultivation World cultivators were all discussing.
As soon as countless runes appeared, they discovered the Void Beast Bone, quickly found their target for liberation, and gathered in droves atop the Void Beast Bone's head, condensing into a huge golden radiant lotus flower.
"What a sin! I've lived over twenty years, lived openly and honestly, sleeves clean, upright and proper, pure-hearted and few desires, never near male beauty—even during festivals I eat plain tea and simple meals—why must I see Yanling?"
He could no longer sit still; if this continued, the vengeful spirits bound within the Void Beast Bone would be liberated, and its power would greatly diminish.
The beast bone was originally immensely powerful; even after its fall, its skeleton remained, with runes compensating and merging with the entire space, as if made into one entity, leaving no trace of flaw.
……
"Hurry up and recall the Tianlun Shuttle!" Long Xiu'ao saw Situ Fang beside him also trembling with anger, and he jumped and cursed furiously.
The gaze of the Void Beast Bone fell upon the Golden Peng King; it suddenly became human-like, filled with unparalleled surprise—the crystal-clear eyes revealed not a tall golden-haired figure, but a Peng-headed, human-bodied demon spirit with twin wings growing from its back.
"Look at those little hussy girls with their faces full of intoxication—humph, what a load of bull."
"Martial Nephew Yanling, those scum of the Qingchun Sect have repeatedly killed righteous cultivators, their intentions exceedingly vicious."
The Void Beast Bone's eyes, originally filled with resentment, regained clarity; mysterious rosy light spread across its body, dense Void runes spewing from its surface, especially the massive bone wings flapping, causing the entire Void to twist and then split open.
As Situ Fang's words fell, a plainly dressed male disciple of Lu Yan Valley slowly stepped out from the crowd, his handsome features and the ethereal aura emanating from his entire body causing countless cultivators' eyes to light up suddenly.
The Golden Peng King was somewhat dazed; the terrifying void beast bone had just been about to slaughter everything, but upon turning around, it was even more docile than the Eagle Baby before him, leaving him unsettled.
He had not expected Lu Yan Valley to harbor such a powerful figure among the alliance cultivators, yet he felt no fear—if the awakening of his Wind Thunder Body were given time to obtain the supreme inheritance of the Wind Thunder Pavilion, he too could reach the level of Yan Ling.
The Green Mother Dragon Pattern Ancient Bell, crafted from Green Mother Heavenly Crystal, is a lower-grade earth-tier treasure, while the Tianlun Shuttle, though externally claimed to also be a lower-grade earth-tier treasure, may be limited by its refining method and materials, bringing it infinitely close to a middle-grade earth-tier treasure.
In the Lu Yan Valley cultivators' camp, Yan Ling radiated silver light from his entire body, mysterious runes coiling around him; he lifted his gaze to the Tianlun Shuttle, his eyes devoid of any emotion.
Void ferocious beasts are exceedingly rare in the Universe Cultivation World, but each one that appears possesses immensely formidable strength—even a mighty being who has surpassed the Ten Thousand Laws Realm would retreat three leagues upon sight, daring not to provoke its wrath.
The power of that void beast bone is terrifyingly formidable, traversing the void, coming and going without trace; even bullets fired from the Divine Sniper are torn apart by the void beast bone, which rips open space to exile them.
Yan Ling raised his hand, gazing at the Golden Peng King and the cultivator-technology puppets behind him, a cold glint appearing in his eyes; he controlled the ink jade box with both hands, commanding the void beast bone to launch a great slaughter toward the Golden Peng King and the cultivator-technology puppets.
"At that time, the World-Honored One discussed heaven and earth, saving countless billions of sentient beings."
The void beast bone howled toward the sky in midair, as if restrained by some powerful law, unable to control its own actions; as Yan Ling pinched his seal, the void beast bone's crimson eyes swept across everything around it.
After the ancient black sigil on the ink jade box absorbed the cultivators' heart's blood, it slowly peeled off, being inhaled by Yan Ling into his storage ring; a surging force burst forth from the box lid, a violent beast roar shaking the entire space, even distorting the void.
"Tianlun Shuttle, if not now, then when?"
If Lu Yan Valley's foundation does not act now, the Taiyin Holy Land and the other six major sects will surely unleash their fury upon Lu Yan Valley's cultivators.
Yan Ling felt his scalp tingle as he called out.
Return!
Return!"
The void beast bone seemed as obedient as a son seeing his father, especially docile beside the Golden Peng.
"I only feel he should also be a kind of sacred body, though the specifics are still unclear; an absolute expert must have deliberately concealed it, and even now I cannot investigate further." Hearing this, Lei Wuyá spoke calmly.
Yan Ling's cold voice echoed in midair; only then did one see the void beast bone open its massive skull mouth, a front tooth missing among the rows of serrated teeth, where a terrifying vortex like a black abyss formed, frantically devouring the mist within the ink jade box, while being mutually drawn to the Tianlun Shuttle controlled by the Golden Peng King.
Besides Lu Yan Valley, the cultivators of all major sects had faces drained of color; those crimson liquids were the cultivators' heart's blood, and according to the amount continuously dripping onto the black ancient sigils in the storage ring, there were at least millions of drops.
Subsequently, Yan Ling activated his法觉, and strands of crimson liquid fell from his storage ring onto the black ancient sigils; the previously calm sigils immediately emitted black light, the patterns above flickering intermittently.
"Situ Fang, you dead thing, are you a dead person!
Look at your mother's—!
"I cannot bear to see sentient beings in the final calamity suffer all kinds of afflictions; following the sixteen divine talismans of the Five Great Bodhisattvas, sensing and responding, bestowed upon worldly people, worn on the body, to dispel calamity and avoid hardship, to obtain blessings and peace."
"Return!
The powerhouses of all major sects were also dazed by the scene before them, staring at the void beast bone affectionately nuzzling the Golden Peng King with their heads, all utterly bewildered, like monks two zhang tall who cannot fathom it.
"The sacred teachings transmit that the Dao strengthens the noble; the virtuous often arise from the east, regardless of gender, corpses lie scattered, blood staining the plains, fields, rivers..."
Crack crack crack.
A sound similar to chains breaking echoed in the void, as if some shackle had completely vanished at this moment.
"He is Yan Ling, rumored to be the eldest disciple of the Lu Yan Valley sect master, endowed with extraordinary talent since childhood, reaching the Ten Thousand Laws Realm at thirty; his true form's strength in the Universe Cultivation World is such that even senior elders must look upon him with awe."
What is this situation?"
On each lotus petal sat a Buddha reciting sutras, the swastika-character light rain drifting down upon the void beast bone, allowing the killing and resentful qi on its body to dissipate rapidly; as the immense bone frame of the void beast bone was gradually purified by the surging killing qi, the exposed form in the void became even clearer.
"What can you see?" Mu Ya stood beside Lei Wuyá, curiously asking.
Although Situ Fang's face had darkened, upon hearing this he also dared not be negligent.
"Lu Yan Valley actually dispatched such an unparalleled heaven's favorite into the Primordial Spirit Realm for the Tianlun Shuttle, showing just how important the Tianlun Shuttle is."
The Tianlun Shuttle's grade is clearly higher than that of the Green Mother Dragon Pattern Ancient Bell by a notch; otherwise, he would not have felt his body nearly lose control under the violent shockwave generated when the Tianlun Shuttle struck the bell.
"As long as Yan Ling is in the alliance, I, the eldest lady, feel invincible—I can go on a wild killing spree!"
The Golden Peng King was greatly startled, his mind racing rapidly.
The void beast bone's speed is simply too fast; he wanted to flee but was also deeply unwilling, and by now many cultivator-technology puppets had already been exiled into the void by the void beast bone.
In the Thunder Pavilion's encampment, Lei Wuyá's pupils were entwined with wind and thunder power, within which a thunderbolt floated and sank; yet on Yan Ling's body appeared a hazy mist, making him impossible to see through.
Whoosh.
Rolling black heavenly thunder, lightning flashing and thunder rumbling, as if the upper heavens sought to destroy the world, heralding the arrival of the apocalypse.
The void beast bone is Lu Yan Valley's immensely powerful foundation; it must not be lost again, otherwise there would be no way to answer to the sect master.
He followed the control method passed down by the Lu Yan Valley sect master, once again summoning the void beast bone, yet his feet felt numb as he stomped on the ground.
The void beast bone remained unmoved, this sight causing Situ Fang's face to turn even uglier than if his father had died.
