It's not an easy feat to seize a Spiritual Treasure during battle.

Because the prohibitions on a Spiritual Treasure bear the owner's Primordial Spirit Imprint, and the treasure itself possesses ample spirit, any attempt to forcibly take the treasure would provoke a strong counterattack.

At this moment, Yuan Tu is desperately struggling in Yu Yuan's grasp, unleashing a vast aura of bloodthirsty malevolence that creeps up his palm and arm, eroding him in its path.

[Physical body, Primordial Spirit injured: Qi-Blood +28321, Primordial Spirit Strength +5916...]

[Physical body, Primordial Spirit injured: Qi-Blood +21439, Primordial Spirit Strength +6329...]

...

"Hmm?"

Resistance, good...

The more you resist, the stronger I become!

Yu Yuan held Yuan Tu in his left hand, allowing the short sword to desperately struggle in his grip, while his right hand swung the Mixed Gold Hammer to smash at the approaching Yellow-Robed Daoist.

"Boom!"

The fierce soundwave exploded among Qingqiu Mountain, echoing across the crystal-clear blue sky.

The creatures living on Qingqiu Mountain turned their heads in the direction of the Cold Pool, showing expressions of shock and awe.

In that direction, billions of feet of golden light burst forth, like the rising of a great sun from between the mountains.

The Yellow-Robed Daoist blocked the hammer, only stumbling backwards for a hundred and eighty miles. Although he felt his ears ring and his vision blur, he did not suffer any significant injuries.

He and Mosquito Daoist each had their strengths.

One forged a Golden Body in the Blood Sea, while the other refined his Primordial Spirit in the Netherworld.

Had it been Mosquito Daoist receiving that blow, he probably would've been pulverized into dust.

"Kill!"

A thunderous roar.

A giant too vast to imagine emerged from the mountains, his chest as wide as a cliff, his body gleaming like gold.

Eighteen muscular arms, layered upon each other like a peacock's feathers.

Every arm was filled with fearsome might, leading one to believe they could smash the void to pieces.

Behind the giant were six pairs of dazzling wings, blazing hot and intense.

The originally spring-like warmth of Qingqiu Mountain quickly climbed, as if entering the peak of summer.

All creatures in this area, upon witnessing this giant, were overawed by his divine might, trembling on the ground.

"Good heavens!"

Yu Yuan looked at the giant the Yellow-Robed Daoist had transformed into with surprise, guessing at his origins and background.

Those who managed to cultivate the Great Divine Power of Fatian Xiangdi, without exception, were formidable characters...

"Hum!"

The six-winged, eighteen-armed giant swung a punch, interrupting Yu Yuan's thoughts.

At the same time, Mosquito Daoist also transformed into thousands, charging at Yu Yuan.

Undaunted, Yu Yuan struck back, the Mixed Gold Hammer in his hand expanding by tens of thousands of times in an instant.

Overpowering force with greater strength, breaking cunning with brute force.

No matter how many mosquitoes there were, they were all crushed under the hammer.

In the roar, many "Mosquito Daoists" were obliterated, unable to withstand the might of one hammer.

Yu Yuan's attack was simple and direct, easily laying waste with the crudest of methods.

The Yellow-Robed Daoist was no different.

"Bang bang bang..."

His eighteen arms punched like pile drivers towards Yu Yuan.

The speed was so fast that the arms could no longer be seen, only continuous golden flashes pummeling towards him.

Yu Yuan didn't utilize the technique of Fatian Xiangdi, merely swinging his Mixed Gold Hammer to meet his opponent head-on in a constant clash.

In just a blink, the two had collided thousands of times.

Each clash created visible ripples and tiny, black lightning-like cracks.

These were the signs of space unable to withstand such force, cracking apart.

The ripples spread out in all directions, causing Qingqiu Mountain itself to shake ever so slightly.

This was a true upheaval.

Continuing like this, the million-mile-wide expanse of Qingqiu Mountain range might well be utterly destroyed before long.

Yet, neither the Yellow-Robed Daoist nor Yu Yuan seemed to tire at all, their relentless barrage having not stopped since it started.

"Bang bang bang..."

Space ripples swirled, and the closer mountains and cliffs shook like foam in the wind, quickly crumbling away.

Mosquito Daoist attempted several times to seize the chance to wield her Spiritual Treasure against Yu Yuan but to no effect, disappearing without a trace like a mud ox into the sea.

What on earth is this monster?!

Mosquito Daoist was somewhat numbed.

From the start, she knew this Third Generation Disciple of Jie Sect was no simple character.

After all, not just anyone could snatch the Chaos Bell amidst the hordes of powerful enemies in Eastern Emperor Heaven; not just anyone could easily outwit several Saint's Disciples of the Western Sect; and most certainly, not just anyone could toy with and kill three Demon Gods and emerge utterly unscathed...

Thus, Mosquito Daoist had come fully prepared.

She did not rush into action, instead transforming into Bai Ling while the other was bathing, with the intention of drawing a drop of Essence Blood to ascertain the truth before making any further plans.

But she had barely gotten close when she was grabbed by the throat, and Yu Yuan interrogated her instead.

That's when she realized that he had long been aware of their presence behind him.

If it were just that, it might not have been too much of a concern.

However, when she harbored lethal intent and summoned Yuan Tu, she then discovered the truly outrageous incident had just begun...

Enduring the damage inflicted by Yuan Tu, almost being flattened by a hammer, and then going toe-to-toe with the arriving Yellow-Robed Daoist, without showing any signs of being overpowered.

To think that the yellow-robed Daoist had already unleashed the Great Divine Power, Fatian Xiangdi, boosting all aspects of his physical combat prowess tremendously, and coupled with his innate Undying Golden Body, there were few within the same realm who could best him in physical combat.

Yet, even so, Yu Yuan was showing no signs of weakness, his vigor only growing stronger as the battle raged on.

This was simply inconceivable!

At this moment, Mosquito Daoist felt as if her understanding of the world was about to shatter.

Could someone really cultivate to such a degree in a mere thousand years?

Could it be that he was personally nurtured by a Saint of the Jie Sect?

Beyond that, she could think of no other explanation.

A thousand years of cultivation, possessing the strength to contend with a Daluo Golden Immortal...what kind of monster was this!

Only those few Saints could possibly raise such a monster, right?

Thinking thus, she felt her heart sinking slowly into a pitch-black and icy abyss.

If Yu Yuan was truly personally groomed by a Saint of the Jie Sect, would their current actions not equate to making an enemy of a Saint?

No sooner had this thought surfaced than Mosquito Daoist felt an uncontrollable shiver throughout her body...

Let alone whether they could kill Yu Yuan at this moment, even if they were to employ every means and truly kill him, she feared it would be difficult for her to escape being held to account!

"Retrieve Yuan Tu...we must retreat!"

Mosquito Daoist decisively shouted aloud.

But at this moment, the yellow-robed Daoist and Yu Yuan were at the critical juncture of their fists-to-flesh battle; how could they possibly stop?

Taking advantage of his distraction, the Mixed Gold Hammer in Yu Yuan's hands suddenly expanded by a myriad of times, and then he swung the mountainous hammer ferociously down.

"Boom—"

The yellow-robed Daoist couldn't withstand this surge of power and fell down like a toppled mountain, flattening who knows how many peaks and rock formations.

Seizing the opportunity, Mosquito Daoist moved forward, communicating with Yuan Tu through Divine Thought, attempting to retrieve this treasure. At the same time, she said to Yu Yuan, "We have misunderstood the Immortal. We will leave now and hope the Immortal will be magnanimous in sparing us for our disrespect, and let bygones be bygones!"

Yu Yuan understood her meaning—it was nothing more than realizing that he was not easy to deal with and now conceding, without intending to pursue Indra's death any further.

"The two of you are not from the Asura Clan, indeed lacking that kind of frenzied resolve..."

Yu Yuan sighed and then swung the Mixed Gold Hammer down at Mosquito Daoist.

Let bygones be bygones?

How could she have the audacity to utter such a childish plea?

Mosquito Daoist knew the terror of the Mixed Gold Hammer all too well—as an entity like her, she would be shattered to pieces if she took a hit.

Seeing the hammer striking down, she quickly transformed into a swirl of black mist dispersing in all directions, then coalesced back into her human form in the distance.

Her expression cold, her brows deeply furrowed.

She had not expected those words of hers to truly resolve this matter.

Now, she just wanted to snatch back Yuan Tu and flee back to the Netherworld Blood Sea for Ming River Sect Hierarch's protection.

But no matter how hard she tried, Yuan Tu remained firmly grasped in the other's hand, impossible to snatch back.

This was because she was not the true master of Yuan Tu.

The power she could exert was extremely limited.

And without the mana support of its master, Yuan Tu couldn't unleash its most formidable strength.

Of course, the most important reason was that all its counterattacks were completely intercepted by Yu Yuan.

If it were someone else, even peak Daluo Golden Immortals like Duobao or Randeng, or those Great Witches from the Ancient Era, it would be impossible to subdue an Innate Spiritual Treasure with such terrifying power merely with their physical bodies.

"Yu Yuan!"

Mosquito Daoist revealed a trace of coldness in her eyes, speaking sharply, "Don't you want to know if that returning disciple has arrived at Chaoge?"

Yu Yuan's gaze turned cold; he chuckled and said, "If you truly pleaded for mercy and agreed to serve me, there might have been a chance for you to live... Unfortunately, you've walked yourself into a corner!"

With that, a broken bell appeared above his head, his body "BlingBling" with radiance of five colors, accompanied by a light "ding" sound.

Yu Yuan vanished in a flash.

"Huh?"

Mosquito Daoist and the yellow-robed Daoist, who had reverted to his normal size after dispelling his divine powers, exchanged glances, wariness apparent in their eyes.

"Let's head back to the Blood Sea first; we cannot deal with this Yu Yuan!"

The yellow-robed Daoist said somewhat apprehensively.

Mosquito Daoist nodded slightly; his words had struck a chord with her.

"But that Yuan Tu..."

"Let the Sect Hierarch figure it out himself."

"There's nothing else we can do."

With a sigh, Mosquito Daoist prepared to return to the Netherworld Blood Sea. She planned to hide in the Asura Realm beneath the sea for a few Yuan Meetings before coming out again.

However, in the next moment, a tall figure suddenly appeared a dozen yards behind her, and with it, a visible bell wave spread out instantly, completely immobilizing the space within a hundred-yard radius around him.

Mosquito Daoist was included too!

She felt as if she had fallen into a quagmire, countless tenacious threads in the air tightly winding and restraining her, forcing her to use all her strength to move.

Space Law—Immobilization!

As a Daluo Golden Immortal, she naturally understood this was the power derived from Space Law.

But knowledge didn't mean she could break this Space Law.

Furthermore, the person behind her didn't intend to give her any chance to break free.

Yu Yuan, without any hesitation or pity, swung down the massive hammer directly onto Mosquito Daoist's head.

Under the state where space was immobilized, she couldn't dissolve the immense Divine Power on the Mixed Gold Hammer as before.

Mosquito Daoist was blown into a cloud of blood mist by that horrific force.

Her Primordial Spirit emerged, a blood-winged black mosquito as large as an elephant, pinned down by Yu Yuan's foot.

"Ah... let me go... don't kill me!" Mosquito Daoist shrieked pitifully.

"If you kill me, that disciple of yours will die too! I've already sent a clone to follow him... and that clone possesses the strength of a Golden Immortal Dao!"
