Chapter 335: Slaying the Mysterious Immortal
One month later.
Erxian Ridge, under a pine tree.
Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao were still playing chess.
These were two carefree Loose Immortals; perhaps limited by their aptitude, knowing their potential was basically exhausted, they no longer had their former obsession with cultivation.
Every day they would either wander about or play chess, truly carefree.
Suddenly, the two stood up one after another and looked toward the east, where they saw, several thousand miles away, a beam of Innate treasure light shooting into the sky, and amidst the faint glimmer, one could even see various strange phenomena.
These phenomena appeared abruptly and vanished just as quickly, as if they had never appeared at all.
But with the cultivation of the two, it was naturally impossible for them to have seen wrong.
Xiao Sheng's pupils constricted, and then he laughed excitedly: "Innate treasure light, Innate treasure light, that means an Innate Spiritual Treasure is about to be born. Worthy brother, a great opportunity, a great opportunity indeed."
"I knew it, our Wuyi Mountain is a treasure land."
"Back then I obtained the Treasure-Falling Money here, and this time there is another Innate Spiritual Treasure to be born; it is destined to be yours."
It must be said that the two of them were true best friends.
Facing an Innate Spiritual Treasure about to be born, he was actually willing to yield it to Cao Bao.
In the original story, Cao Bao was also a man of loyalty and righteousness; to avenge Xiao Sheng, he resolutely joined Xiqi, eventually losing his life in the Red Water Formation of the Ten Absolute Formations, and was finally canonized as the Nazhen Heavenly Venerable.
Cao Bao was even more excited beyond measure, and he hurriedly said: "Brother, let us go, do not let other beasts get there first."
Subsequently, the two turned into streams of light and rushed toward the east.
From beginning to end, they never doubted it.
How precious is an Innate Spiritual Treasure, and how vast is Honghuang.
That Wuyi Mountain could miss one Treasure-Falling Money was already a stroke of Heaven-sent luck;
two, it was absolutely impossible.
A journey of several thousand miles was reached in an instant.
By the time Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao arrived, quite a few of the Demon Race had already arrived in the surroundings.
"Beasts, get out!"
Cao Bao was in a very good mood and did not resort to a major fight, just shouting sharply.
Although the surrounding Demon Race were envious, looking at Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao in the sky, they could only leave with reluctance.
In the Wuyi Mountain range, there was no one who did not know Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao.
As all the Demon Race retreated, Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao looked down at the valley on the ground; the valley was shrouded in thick fog, completely blocking their line of sight, and there was faintly a Divine Light barrier covering the entire valley.
Xiao Sheng was very experienced and said: "Worthy brother, an Innate Spiritual Treasure is naturally protected by an Array Formation. Let us go down; once we break into the Array Formation, we will be able to obtain the Innate Spiritual Treasure."
Generally speaking, this kind of Array Formation had no lethality, so he was not worried, at most they would just be obstructed.
"Mm!"
Cao Bao could not wait any longer; he landed on the ground first and stepped into the valley.
Seeing this, Xiao Sheng followed closely behind.
As soon as Cao Bao stepped into the valley, he felt the surrounding baleful aura pressing in, so thick it was almost about to materialize.
How could such a fierce place possibly nurture an Innate Spiritual Treasure?
"Not good! It's a trap!"
Cao Bao suddenly widened his eyes, abruptly realizing something, and hurriedly turned his head to shout at Xiao Sheng: "Brother, do not come in."
But it was already too late.
Just as he shouted, Xiao Sheng followed him in, his expression also changing abruptly.
This fierce array seemed to form a world of its own; as they stepped in, this fierce array seemed to be activated, and immediately the originally thick baleful aura actually took shape, condensing into savage-looking barbarian gods.
"Which fellow Daoist is here?"
Xiao Sheng hurriedly shouted: "We accidentally entered this place and have no other intentions. I ask that you, fellow Daoist, be magnanimous and let us leave; we will certainly keep this in our hearts."
Roar! Roar! Roar!
The answer to him was the roars of the barbarian gods.
They brandished their fists and rushed toward Xiao Sheng from all directions, their momentum extremely fierce.
Cao Bao's expression changed, and he said sternly: "Brother, let's fight them to the death."
He pinched a spell gesture with his hand and shouted "Go!"
Immediately, streaks of Sword Qi erupted from his body, slashing toward the surrounding barbarian gods.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
One by one, the barbarian gods shattered with a bang, turning into a sky full of baleful aura.
Before Cao Bao could even be happy, he saw the sky full of baleful aura actually condensing again, turning into even more barbarian gods, continuing to rush toward him and Xiao Sheng.
"What!"
Cao Bao and Xiao Sheng were shocked.
They attacked again, killing all the surrounding barbarian gods, but soon more barbarian gods were resurrected.
Even if their cultivation were higher, they would be exhausted to death facing this situation.
Xiao Sheng said urgently: "Worthy brother, this evil array is extraordinary; unless we find the eye of the array, or forcibly break the array, otherwise we will definitely be exhausted to death here."
Cao Bao shouted sternly: "Kill, charge into the center of the array."
The two Mysterious Immortals joined forces, and batch after batch of barbarian gods were killed; they soon arrived at the center of the array, but they did not find the so-called eye of the array, nor did they find the person who set up the array.
Thus, they continued to kill.
Two-plus hours later, they had slaughtered everyone inside the formation, yet still had not found a way to break it.
They also attempted to break the formation by force, but their cultivation was still lacking.
At this moment, both Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao were somewhat exhausted, their combat power having declined severely.
"No matter who you are, daring to set up such a wicked formation to plot against us, then be prepared to die."
Xiao Sheng gritted his teeth and finally brought out the Treasure-Dropping Golden Coin.
The Treasure-Dropping Golden Coin could drop all Spirit Treasures under Heaven, but that did not mean it lacked other powers.
As an Innate Spiritual Treasure, it still possessed the basic powers of an Innate Spiritual Treasure.
This Treasure-Dropping Golden Coin was shaped like a copper coin, but it grew a pair of wings.
As Xiao Sheng urged it with all his might, the Treasure-Dropping Golden Coin radiated a vast aura.
An invisible and terrifying power was about to erupt.
Just at this moment, Yin Qi, who had been waiting for a long time, moved.
He held the Sun-Shooting Arrow and threw it fiercely toward Xiao Sheng.
At the same time, his Primordial Spirit broke out of his body, quietly transforming into a bronze-colored great bell.
It was precisely the Bell of Universal Extremity.
"Haha, I've been waiting for you!"
Xiao Sheng suddenly laughed loudly, as if his treacherous scheme had succeeded.
He threw the Treasure-Dropping Golden Coin toward the Sun-Shooting Arrow, and the Treasure-Dropping Golden Coin stuck to the Sun-Shooting Arrow, rapidly plummeting toward the ground.
The gazes of Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao had long been attracted by the Sun-Shooting Arrow, and they completely failed to notice the Bell of Universal Extremity that Yin Qi's Primordial Spirit had transformed into.
"Dong! Dong! Dong!"
The Bell of Universal Extremity rang violently, and waves of invisible time power rippled outward accordingly.
Instantly, Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao felt their thoughts fall into a standstill.
At the same time, Yin Qi's physical body collapsed, transforming into countless Hongmeng Insects, which instantly submerged Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao.
Using the Sun-Shooting Arrow to attract the attention of Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao, then using the Bell of Universal Extremity to freeze their Primordial Spirits, and finally, the trump card: the "Immeasurable Heaven-Swallowing Art."
Only in this way was it possible to kill the two of them quickly.
This was the Primordial World, and the World Origin was too strong; even with Yin Qi's cultivation, wielding the Bell of Universal Extremity could only be sustained for two or three seconds.
But these two or three seconds were already completely sufficient.
As the power of time faded, Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao returned to normal, but by then, countless Hongmeng Insects had already burrowed into their bodies, rapidly gnawing away at their flesh, immortal power, and even their Primordial Spirits.
"Ah! What kind of Ghost is this!"
"Spare our lives, spare our lives!"
Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao screamed in terror; they wanted to drive the Hongmeng Insects out of their bodies.
But these Hongmeng Insects were too profound and too overbearing; they were completely unable to stop them, and could only watch helplessly as their physical bodies lost control, finally losing consciousness in despair.
Subsequently, two True Spirits soared into the sky and headed toward Kunlun.
