Chapter 1897: Success!

Xiao Feng let out a low shout in his heart, the Tian Tian Bao Nang opened, a scroll floated up and slowly unfurled.

This azure-gold scroll emitted no aura, seeming as ordinary as a mortal world calligraphy painting.

As the scroll unfurled, the Luo Chart's pattern appeared on it.

The shape of the Luo Chart closely resembled the Nine Palaces.

To be precise, the Nine Palaces evolved from the Luo Chart.

The pattern consists of three rows and three columns; the first row has four black dots, nine white dots, two black dots.

The second row has three white dots in a vertical line, five white dots centered in four directions, and a column of seven white dots.

The third row has eight black dots forming a square, one white dot, and six black dots forming a square.

The nine figures respectively represent the changes of 1 through 9; whether horizontal, vertical, or diagonal, the sum of the dots equals 15, and even when reduced to two-digit sums they remain perfectly symmetrical.

However, this is not a math problem but the true law of cosmic evolution.

From one to nine, it is the evolution of heaven and earth from scarcity to extremity, from qi to form.

It can deduce the Yin Yang Eight Trigrams, the Star Space and Earth, and endless changes, worthy as the supreme truth of heaven and earth.

As soon as the Luo Chart copy was opened, Qinglong froze.

"What treasure is this?" she exclaimed, eyes wide, having never seen anything so peculiar.

Such a thing, without law or fluctuation, seeming like everything is void yet truly existing before her eyes, she had only seen on the Dao Ancestor!

"Qi Luck Ice Chest, seal!"

Xiao Feng let out a low shout in his heart, the Dao Ancestor's Dharma Edict glowed, a mysterious dao resonance shot from the Luo Chart and landed on the Qi Luck Ice Chest.

At this moment, it was the first second of taking action!

Wherever the Dao Ancestor's Dharma Edict passed, all laws retreated.

The cold disappeared, the Qi Luck Ice Chest was trapped by a strange force, the surroundings

No longer feeling any chill, instead Xiao Feng's body's true solar fire and the Weapon: Star Furnace floating on his right hand emitted astonishing heat, instantly melting the surrounding rock layers into magma.

"My ice chest? This is impossible!"

Qinglong was greatly startled, never expecting he could seal the power of the Primordial Sacred Artifact; in a moment he was so shocked he forgot to react.

Xiao Feng took the opportunity to flash, transforming into primordial source qi, appearing next to the Qi Luck Ice Chest at the fastest speed.

With the Dao Ancestor's Dharma Edict sealing it, the Qi Luck Ice Chest's chill no longer leaked, and he was not frozen.

Qinglong stood nearby; a single raise of his hand could injure and repel him.

But Xiao Feng had prepared beforehand!

Before Qinglong could recover from his shock, three treasures appeared on his person.

7th-rank Supreme Treasure Binding Immortal Rope — entangling and binding!

8th-rank Supreme Treasure Myriad Transformation Spirit Pearl — transforming into the Myriad Calamity Treasure Pagoda to seal!

Primordial Sacred Artifact Heaven-Shaking Arrow — aiming for heavy damage!

Swish!

Hum!

Pfft!

Just as the Dao Ancestor's Dharma Edict entered its second second, the three treasures activated simultaneously, drawing a large amount of his divine power and unleashing their strongest effect on Qinglong.

The Binding Immortal Rope's rank was insufficient, seeming somewhat redundant, but better than nothing.

The Myriad Calamity Treasure Pagoda formed from the Myriad Transformation Spirit Pearl could restrain a 2910-rank Venerable for about 1-2 seconds, somewhat useful.

The true main force was still the Heaven-Shaking Arrow!

The Heaven-Shaking Arrow's sole chance to strike was used here; the war god's blood sealed within the arrow shaft burned fiercely, the arrow blazed with blinding golden light, and with a pfft it pierced Qinglong's skull.

Qinglong would not die so easily; she had long since fused with the Qi Luck Ice Chest, and as long as the chest remained intact she would not perish.

But the Heaven-Shaking Arrow's fatal blow was no trivial matter!

The skull was pierced, the brain directly crushed into nothingness before this heaven-shaking, earth-destroying divine might.

Qinglong's consciousness dissipated on the spot, entering a state of apparent death.

"Quick quick quick!"

Xiao Feng dared not delay; he flung his divine power, as if kicking, and kicked Qinglong down from the ice coffin.

Then he quickly separated a clone, releasing all his power: "Open for me!"

Crack~

The lid of the tightly closed Qi Luck Ice Chest was opened by him with peak strength.

At this moment Xiao Feng's divine power was excessive; consuming a small piece of Star Crystal Jade Marrow gave him explosive power, and the divine power possessed by a clone was even richer than his own usual peak state.

Therefore this push's force was no small matter; the Qi Luck Ice Chest, under the Dao Ancestor's Dharma Edict's suppression and having lost its divinity, faced only material resistance, which could not naturally stop him.

Accompanied by a sound of ice shards rubbing, the Qi Luck Ice Chest finally opened.

At this moment, the Dao Ancestor's Dharma Edict had already been activated for two seconds.

After the ice chest took one second to open, the figure of Xun Shuang Xianzi was revealed.

She looked… quite ordinary, lacking her former peerless beauty, devoid of transcendent aura, and without lively vitality, resembling a corpse frozen for many years.

"Fairy Maiden..."

Seeing her pallid, bloodless face, Xiao Feng felt a pang in his heart.

Although Xun Shuang Xianzi had become unattractive, he had no doubt this person was the one he sought.

She also mastered the power of myriad things, able to assume any form; appearance is not a mark of identity.

The interior of the Qi Luck Ice Chest also contained much cold air; as the clone pushed open the lid, intending to touch her, at that instant it was struck by the cold

Upon contact, it instantly turned into a statue.

The Dao Ancestor's edict could not suppress the ice chest's interior; the cold merely would not burst out, not completely disappearing.

"Xiao Bao!"

Xiao Feng gave a low shout.

"Understood!"

The Tian Tian Bao Nang flew out automatically, its mouth opened, and it emitted a suction force toward the person inside the Qi Luck ice chest.

"Ah, it's so cold!"

At that moment, Xiao Bao suddenly let out a miserable scream.

While rescuing Xun Shuang Xianzi, a wisp of cold from inside the ice chest was also brought out; after contamination, it could damage all things.

However, at the moment that miserable cry rang out, Xun Shuang Xianzi's body was also brought out and placed inside the Tian Tian Bao Nang's interior space, no longer sealed by the ice coffin.

"Xiao Bao, how are you?"

Three seconds had passed; Xiao Feng hurriedly asked.

The Tian Tian Bao Nang became extremely cold, to the point that even he could feel a bone‑chilling chill.

The Tian Tian Bao Nang rasped: "I… big brother, I'm fine! Hurry and go!"

Xiao Bao looked terrible, but he gritted his teeth and endured.

Xiao Feng had no time to be anxious; two seconds remained, enough for him to leave.

He recalled the Binding Immortal Rope, the pagoda transformed from the Myriad Transformation Spirit Pearl, and the Heaven‑shaking Arrow, preparing to withdraw.

At that moment, he suddenly noticed that where the Azure Dragon's skull had been pierced, a spurt of fresh blood flowed out.

That was not ordinary blood, but Life Essence Blood, exuding a powerful aura.

"Azure Dragon Treasure Blood!"

This item is marvelous; it can be used to comprehend the Azure Dragon Divine Body.

Xiao Feng unhesitatingly drew it in, stored it in the Mount Sumeru Ring's storage space, then silently chanted: "Mi Jing Transmission!"

He directly chose the long‑abandoned Blood River Cave and vanished on the spot.

At this point, a little more than four seconds had elapsed.

The Azure Dragon's gaze scattered, the Qi Luck ice chest flung wide open, and not far away there was some lava

flowing.

And after less than a second, the power of the Dao Ancestor's edict vanished, together with the Luoshu copy itself, which also disappeared on the spot to return to its owner.

At that instant, the Azure Dragon's gaze regained its focus.

"Ugh, it hurts……"

She let out a muffled groan; her head had a huge hole, looking extremely terrifying.

But soon the wound healed back to its original state.

"What kind of power is this? Could it be that a Dao Ancestor took action?" She covered her head, which still ached slightly, her brows furrowed, full of disbelief.

Looking at the nearby empty Qi Luck ice chest, this 2910‑level Venerable felt terrible.

"A moment's carelessness, and the whole board is lost, the whole board is lost!"

She regretted bitterly, gritting her teeth: "We can't just suffer this loss; we must find a way to regain face!" Her earlier composure was gone.

But upon further thought, the identities of those two juniors were not simple; having left the Void Sea, she herself might not be fully confident in dealing with them.

Thus she turned her thoughts and muttered: "At this moment, Qi Luck favors the adventurers; even if I am not destroyed, it would be hard to recover the loss. Moreover, I will go beg the Old Ancestor, calculate the variables, intercept a few supreme treasures midway, only then can I quell the hatred in my heart."

Having spoken, she pushed with one hand, and the Qi Luck ice chest closed again.

With the suppression of the Dao Ancestor's edict lost, the cold spread once more through the surrounding space; the lava solidified and froze, and all things in the vicinity returned to their original state.
