Chapter 469: Amid the wind‑blown snow, a summons; turning peril into safety

Black Emperor walked up, scratching his head in puzzlement: "Crimson‑Azure Immortal Pearl? What is this thing? Can it be eaten?"

All you know is to eat!

Xiao Bai slapped, sending the dark glasses Black Emperor wore flying away.

Don't you see this pearl is the biggest here? Use your dog brain and you'll know it's the most precious.

That said, having all these immortal pearls together is really damn glaring; luckily we have this 'dark glasses' item granted by our lord.

It's really useful.

"The elder brother is right," Black Emperor nodded, then hurriedly picked up the dark glasses from the ground and put them on.

It's too dazzling; even my Great Luo mirror dog eyes can't block it.

After the shock passed, Feng Piaoxue regained his composure: "Senior Xiao Bai, Senior Black Emperor, what should we do next…"

But before he could finish, Xiao Bai cut him off: "No need for many words—take this sack; let's open and pack together."

Xiao Bai then pulled out another black sack and tossed it over.

This sack is no ordinary sack—it's a spatial immortal treasure remodeled by the sect's artifact craftsmen.

Its interior is vast—ten spatial immortal rings of the same tier combined still can't compare.

Thus, Feng Piaoxue alone, and Xiao Bai and Black Emperor—the two beasts—each took a black sack and began packing, enjoying themselves immensely.

I don't know what Senior Xiao Bai and they have on their eyes, but it looks really cool.

If I wore them, I'd surely bewitch the few fairy maidens next door to my clan.

As they packed, Feng Piaoxue pondered.

Holy crap! So many good stuff!

Beside him, Black Emperor grinned so wide his mouth curled, his hands constantly fiddling.

Huh? What is this? Its shape is really weird.

Black Emperor picked up a black umbrella‑shaped immortal treasure and examined it.

It's umbrella‑like but not quite; its shape is odd, its surface etched with obscure inscriptions, and even inactive it emits a terrifying demonic aura.

Reporting to Lord Black Emperor, this is the Soul‑Devouring Umbrella, a top‑tier Divine Lord stage supreme treasure.

Having roamed the Immortal Realm far and wide, Feng Piaoxue instantly recognized the item in Black Emperor's hand.

This umbrella can devour the beast souls of great demons and absorb cultivators' divine souls for its own use—it's extremely evil and powerful.

Ancient records show that, several eras ago, a Divine Lord‑stage evil cultivator wielding the Myriad Demon Umbrella threw both the immortal and demon realms into chaos.

The divine souls of dozens of Immortal Venerables and countless Immortal Sovereigns, along with the beast souls of great and ancient demons, were all drawn into the Soul‑Devouring Umbrella.

Only an Immortal Emperor's intervention finally subdued it.

So that's the deal—if you don't work hard on your cultivation today, you'll end up as brothers in the Soul‑Devouring Umbrella tomorrow.

This thing is too evil; it must be locked away in our Azure Cloud Sect.

And this one—obviously a calamity‑bringing immortal treasure—put it away.

And that one…

Black Emperor spoke up righteously, assigning each treasure a reason, then conscientiously packed them into the sack.

Feng Piaoxue then approached the Crimson‑Azure Immortal Pearl again, examining it: "I never thought I, Feng Mou, would in my lifetime actually get to see this legendary object; it's not a wasted life."

Having said that, he picked up the sack, intending to store the pearl inside.

Just then, a furious voice echoed from the void.

"You think you, a tiny ant, can take my Crimson‑Azure Pearl?"

Immediately a surge of chaotic power struck, blasting Feng Piaoxue away before he could react.

"Pfft!"

He crashed to the ground, a mouthful of old blood bursting from his throat as his breath instantly waned.

"Master!"

"Elder Feng!"

Black Emperor and Xiao Bai halted their actions and rushed over to check.

Disciple Lei Yu was also frantic; he felt the blast's power even through his ring.

The interior of the Immortal Treasure Soul‑Nurturing Ring was riddled with countless dense cracks.

"Cough cough! If nothing unexpected were supposed to happen, well, something unexpected still happened."

Feng Piaoxue coughed, tried to rise, but found it extremely difficult.

He hastily probed his condition: his meridians were severed, his five viscera and six bowels shattered, his divine soul severely damaged.

In short, he was on his last breath.

"Huh, he's not dead yet?"

"No, you have a formation on your body that shields against my power."

"Hmph, even so, you ant will surely die today, daring to covet my Crimson‑Azure Immortal Pearl!"

The furious voice in the void kept echoing.

Xiao Bai and Black Emperor stepped in front of Feng Piaoxue, as if facing a formidable foe.

"I was just thinking about snagging a bargain, never expecting danger here."

"Go die, ant."

"Huh? Ah—don't!"

The expected killing blow never came; instead a anguished cry rang out.

"Almost miscalculated."

Feng Qingyang and the servant girl Luo Wanxia appeared in the void.

"Sect Master!"

Seeing this, Xiao Bai and the Black Emperor's hearts, which had been lifted, immediately settled back down.

Sect Master has arrived, we are safe.

"Cough, cough, Sect Master," Feng Piaoxue, lying on the ground, again tried to struggle to get up.

"You still shouldn't move in your current condition; swallow it."

Feng Qingyang's thought moved, and a black pill automatically flew into Feng Piaoxue's mouth.

A Nine-Revolution Shattering Venerable Pill.

This pill shouldn't be able to restrain the Son of Destiny; even if it did, it wouldn't matter, as I still have Ten-Revolution Emperor-Shattering Pills, and I can just keep exploiting the bug.

The pill entered Feng Piaoxue's belly in one gulp, and its massive medicinal power instantly circulated throughout the body.

Feng Piaoxue's injuries healed at a visible speed, and the feeble aura continually rose.

Boom! A tremendous sound!

The massive Heavenly Source power erupted from Feng Piaoxue's body, filling the entire cave with the aura of the Venerable Realm.

"This is... a Heavenly Source Dao Seed! I have broken through to the Immortal Venerable Realm!"

"Thank you, Sect Master! Thank you, Sect Master!"

After the surprise, the red-faced Feng Piaoxue restrained the aura and bowed in thanks.

Accustomed to it, I can turn every danger into safety; truly, surviving a great disaster brings future blessings!

I don't know what divine pill the Sect Master gave, but it not only fully healed my injuries, it also further advanced my cultivation.

I have reached the first layer of the Immortal Venerable Realm, and my foundation is extremely solid!

Seeing that Feng Piaoxue showed no abnormality, Feng Qingyang nodded.

The Nine-Revolution Shattering Venerable Pill's restriction had no effect on Feng Piaoxue whatsoever; indeed, Sons of Destiny cannot be judged by common sense.

On the void of the Phantom Realm, the wills of the two great Immortal Demon Emperors manifested again, and as soon as they appeared, they were still full of hostility.

"Something happened! It's all your fault; you said you kept your lingering obsession for what purpose!"

"I, the Emperor, never expected this! How could I know that my own obsession would be so strong!"

The will of the Fierce Heaven Demon Emperor retorted.

That Azure-Red Immortal Pearl was obtained by it at great cost in its lifetime, in order to one day surpass the Immortal Emperor.

Who would have thought it was impossible to surpass, so the obsession left behind after its fall is so great.

"Huh? The wills of two ant-like Immortal Emperors, upon seeing my lord, still do not come to pay respects?"

While the two great Demon Immortal Emperors were still spraying at each other, Luowanxia's jade hand gave a tug, and the willpower of both was pulled into the cave.
