"Damn junior!"
Inside the Blood God Palace, the Minghe Ancestor cursed angrily and with heartache.
With the disconnection of the sensing and the severance of that thread of Primordial Spirit, he could almost be sure that his two Spiritual Treasures will fall victim to Yu Yuan's evil deeds!
Those two Spiritual Treasures were nurtured at the same time as him, accompanied him for countless years, and now they were forcibly taken away by a junior whose cultivation wasn't even a thousand years old!
This stifling feeling made him eager to immediately ascend to Penglai and reduce that junior called Yu Yuan to ashes!
But such things could only remain in his thoughts.
That Penglai is the Saint's Dao Field, how could he go to such a place to kill the Saint's disciples?
Ah... damn it!
...
Nameless Island.
Yuan Tu and Avici attacked Yu Yuan from left and right.
"Damn junior!"
"The Sect Hierarch is agitated again, want to take a hammer from me to cool down a bit?"
"You're playing with fire!"
"Then kill me if you can!"
"Go to hell!"
Both Immortal Swords were as crimson as blood, their bodies shimmering with blood-colored divine light, exuding terrifying forces of combat and evil spirits.
Within the Four Symbols Formation, scarlet auras rolled.
Countless waves of deep red blood light engulfed Yu Yuan like a tide, the tremendous pressure visibly slowing his movements.
Yuan Tu and Avici wove together the laws of killing, causing his physical body to crack like porcelain and the pervasive evil spirits were constantly eroding his Primordial Spirit.
[Physical body and Primordial Spirit severely damaged: Qi-Blood +2853827, Bone Strength +49353, Strength +28434, Primordial Spirit Strength +39572…]
[Physical body and Primordial Spirit severely damaged: Qi-Blood +2684792, Bone Strength +53425, Strength +27532, Primordial Spirit Strength +38125…]
...
The cycle of destruction and healing rapidly increased the strength of Yu Yuan's physical body and Primordial Spirit.
This was his "Cultivation Plan"!
From the start, he had not planned to refine these two top-quality Spiritual Treasures.
Instead, he was thinking of how to use these two Spiritual Treasures to "cultivate".
After all, with his current strength, ordinary cultivation methods no longer had much effect.
That's why he borrowed the Four Symbols Formation, and chose this Nameless Island at the edge of the sacred realm, giving the Minghe Ancestor the illusion of "I can recapture the Spiritual Treasures," successfully luring this Quasi-Saint powerhouse.
With the Four Symbols Formation sealing heaven and earth, he wasn't worried about Minghe Ancestor really taking the treasures back.
And behind him was the Penglai Holy Realm, even if Minghe Ancestor's True Body came, he was confident in escaping back into the Penglai Holy Realm in time.
Even if Minghe Ancestor were extremely fierce, he wouldn't dare to rush into the Penglai Holy Realm to harm him.
Thus, a "Cultivation Holy Ground" exclusive to Yu Yuan was rather rashly established.
In this "Cultivation Holy Ground," he obtained a strand of Primordial Spirit from a Quasi-Saint to spar with.
Although this strand of Primordial Spirit could not compare with the True Body, the power it wielded with Yuan Tu and Avici was far beyond what an ordinary Daluo Golden Immortal could match.
That terrifying force of combat often shattered Yu Yuan to pieces, his soul nearly scattered.
However, soon after, this strand of Minghe Ancestor's Primordial Spirit discerned Yu Yuan's "sinister" intentions. Facing no hope of escape, it simply gave up and went on strike.
The two Divine Swords simultaneously retracted their blood light, hanging motionless in mid-air.
"Tsck tsck~"
Yu Yuan smacked his lips and raised an eyebrow at the two Divine Swords.
"Such a mighty Sect Hierarch... that's it?"
"Damn junior!"
The two Divine Swords instantly lit up.
"That's more like it..."
"Move! Don't stop!"
"If you've got it, kill me!"
"Put some effort into it, didn't you eat?"
"That's all the skill you have!"
"This sword... is just so-so."
"Stop struggling, if you can break one of my bones you win!"
"I'm laying it down right here... if you can knock off a single hair from my head... I'll admit you are formidable..."
"I refuse to believe you can even..."
...
Tens of days later.
The Four Symbols Formation was covering the Nameless Island.
Yuan Tu and Avici were suspended in mid-air, with an illusory figure in the middle.
Although it was hard to see the face, the mere aura that inadvertently emanated from the figure was enough to make a host of Daluo Golden Immortals palpitate.
However, at this moment, the illusory figure was grinding teeth in fury, looking at Yu Yuan as if it wanted to bite into his flesh and gnaw on his bones.
In the end, the illusory figure did nothing, only resentfully cursed out loud.
"You damn junior! I will not let you get your wish!"
Then the illusory figure dissipated into the wind bit by bit.
In the face of this behavior, Yu Yuan was helpless and had no way to deal with him.
Just like you can never wake up someone who's pretending to sleep, you can also never stop someone who "wants to die".
As the strand of Minghe Ancestor's Primordial Spirit dissipated, Yuan Tu and Avici once again retracted their bodies' blood light, revealing their dark and simple sword bodies, then fell to the ground with a "clang clang".
They weren't sealed; they just responded to their master's call and lapsed into a voluntary hibernation.
Yu Yuan, holding Yuan Tu and Avici, cautiously retreated back into the Penglai Holy Realm.
This "cultivation" trip really benefited him a lot.
In just a few tens of days of "cultivation," he could feel his physical body and Primordial Spirit strength had both greatly improved.
To put it specifically, while under the sword control of Minghe Ancestor's Primordial Spirit, he had progressed from "being killed in one move" to "lasting over ten moves."
Such an opportunity was really too rare!
After a moment of contemplation, he still went and borrowed a treasure from his master, the Golden Spirit Saint Mother, before returning and retracting the Four Symbols Formation.
Thus, the space that was sealed and trapped returned to Heaven and Earth.
At the same time.
In the Blood God Palace, the Minghe Ancestor who was meditating once again opened his eyes.
What's going on?
Why do I sense Yuan Tu and Avici again?
Haven't they been refined yet?
Well, that junior, although physically resilient, lacks far behind in Dao Xing realm.
He is just like those of the Witch Clan, possessing sheer brawn without cultivating their Primordial Spirit, not comprehending the Dao, not Cutting Three Corpses, ultimately not the correct path, sooner or later reduced to ashes.
But since this junior cannot refine Yuan Tu and Avici in a short time, there's still a chance for me to take them back!
It's just that his Great Formation is somewhat troublesome…
Hmm, this time I might as well send a clone instead.
The Tongtian Saint is easy-going, as long as I don't enter the Penglai Holy Realm or harm Yu Yuan's life, he probably won't do anything to me.
Thinking this, a blood shadow flashed from his body and landed on the ground, transforming into a young and handsome man in a red robe.
Even as just a clone, this red-robed Daoist also possessed unbelievable strength.
He didn't directly break through space to appear before Yu Yuan.
After all, Yu Yuan also had the Chaos Bell at hand, capable of detecting the anomalies in space, thus alerting him in advance.
Therefore, he first traversed to thousands of miles away, then concealed his presence and slowly approached the Nameless Island.
In a short while, as he arrived at the edge of the East Sea Penglai Sacred Realm, at the Nameless Island, he saw Yu Yuan drawing the Earthly Evil Fire and, on the blades of Yuan Tu and Avici, stringing a dozen or so pairs of plucked bird wings, roasting them over the fire, sizzling with fat dripping down.
Seeing his companion Spiritual Treasures treated in such a disgraceful manner, the Minghe Ancestor inwardly cursed, but he forcibly contained his anger.
This time, he had resolved to win with wit!
Suddenly, he transformed into a tall green-robed Daoist.
He wore a Green Cloud Crown, with a full Heavenly Court, a high nose and square mouth, naturally bearing an appearance of great wealth and prosperity.
While still afar, he laughed heartily and said, "Nephew, why are you not staying in Penglai but have come here?"
Yu Yuan, hearing the noise, looked up at him, then stood up to salute, "Oh, it's Uncle Gongming, I was about to look for you. Come, try and see how well I roasted these Phoenix Wings."
To presume those palm-sized bird wings as Phoenix Wings, this junior really can talk nonsense!
Minghe Ancestor inwardly cursed, yet his face was all smiles as he flew atop a cloud to the island. As Yu Yuan seemed to have all his attention on roasting the wings, the Ancestor decisively issued a cold shout.
"Duā!"
In an instant, the wind changed color.
A strange force immediately enveloped Yu Yuan.
This was the Soul Capturing Skill, a rather common divine skill specifically targeting the Primordial Spirit.
Once affected, the Primordial Spirit will immediately fall into a state of stupor.
The Minghe Ancestor didn't want to make too much commotion on the fringe of the Penglai Sacred Realm, and this Soul Capturing Skill was perfect for the situation.
As soon as the skill was used, he didn't even look at Yu Yuan and reached out toward Yuan Tu and Avici.
Sensing the call of their master, the two Spiritual Treasures immediately tried to shake free with violent trembling.
But Yu Yuan's hands were like iron pincers, gripping them tightly, and the treasures could not break free.
"Hmm?"
The Minghe Ancestor turned his head to look and saw Yu Yuan staring straight at him.
Their eyes met, both reflecting confusion.
"So it's the Sect Hierarch who graces us with his presence."
Yu Yuan greeted him and handed over the skewer of wings on Yuan Tu, saying warmly, "All these are already cooked, Sect Hierarch, try them and see how they taste."
"You impudent junior!"
The Minghe Ancestor's face darkened as he snatched away Yuan Tu, then reached for the Avici in Yu Yuan's hand.
"Don't rush, these are all yours."
Yu Yuan let the other snatch Avici as well, then said with a smile, "After eating your fill, it will be time to work hard, hah."
"Hmm?"
The Minghe Ancestor looked at him in confusion, only to see a corner of a fuzzy Array Map emerging into the air.
Immediately after, four majestic figures appeared out of the air, enveloping the entire island.
The four spirits of heaven, guarding the four directions.
This Nameless Island was instantly turned into a space independent of Heaven and Earth.
The Minghe Ancestor snorted coldly, "Do you think this mere Array Map can trap me?"
"Sect Hierarch is right, the Array Map alone might not be enough, so…"
As Yu Yuan spoke, he pointed upward, "Sect Hierarch, what is that you see?"
The Minghe Ancestor looked up and saw an enormous Bronze Pagoda, connecting heaven and earth, descend from the sky, surrounded by the four majestic figures, suppressing the entire Nameless Island beneath the pagoda.
The cold smile on the Minghe Ancestor's face froze instantly.
"Now what you're facing is the true Four Symbols Formation!"
Yu Yuan smirked and stretched out his hand, gesturing to the Minghe Ancestor.
"Trapped again, aren't you?"
"Outsmarted again, right?"
"Feeling angry?"
"Feeling furious?"
"Well then, come and hit me, you little weakling!"
