The Ancestor of All Demons

Chapter 497: 406 Ninety Million Merits


Avoiding tribulation and transcending tribulation yield different results.

For cultivators, tribulation is also a form of tempering. Those who manage to transcend it have endured such tempering and testing, which greatly benefits them, making their body and spirit even stronger.

Just as the saying goes, "What does not kill me makes me stronger."

Those who have undergone the baptism of heavenly tribulation, whether it be the cultivator themselves or their Flying Sword Magical Treasure, can achieve a qualitative enhancement.

Cang Lingzi, due to Shi Feiyang's involvement, avoided that tribulation. Although he escaped the agony of Soldier Disintegration, his final achievement was not as high as if he had successfully transcended the tribulation.

He was originally an Earth Immortal of a lesser path and reaching his current level was already quite forced. In the future, when heavenly tribulation strikes, he will find both the Heavenly Tribulation and Fire Tribulation difficult to overcome, especially the Demon Tribulation, for which he has virtually no assurance.

Previously, within the Holy Mausoleum, Shi Feiyang publicly preached about the Three Emperors Dao, and Cang Lingzi, having listened a lot, gained profound insights, further enlightening him on the Daoist Techniques he had cultivated for hundreds of years.

This time, Shi Feiyang gave him two Copper Talismans, which are treasures specifically helpful for concentrating the mind on Demon Refinement. They also contained four Ancient Heavenly Talismans.

Shi Feiyang explained the meaning of the Heavenly Talismans and taught him a special set of techniques called "Talismanic Mind Capture," which progress from the external to the internal to subdue internal demons through refinement.

Cang Lingzi was incredibly delighted, silently proclaiming in his heart that his trip had not been in vain.

Compared to that, the scattered Separation and Reunion Divine Light was not wasted either, as it was exchanged for two treasures critical to his own life and livelihood, crucially accompanied by their respective refinement and cultivation methods.

He still had a small portion of his Separation and Reunion Divine Light left, and he planned to carefully dedicate it to sacrificial refinement, gradually restoring it to its original scale.

Especially with these two Copper Talismans, the foundation of the Separation and Reunion Divine Light was heart-driven and moved with thought, theoretically capable of filling the heavens and earth in an instant.

Its effectiveness is closely related to one's mental state; the stronger the mental state and the higher the realm, the more powerful the refined Separation and Reunion Divine Light becomes.

Master You Tan was stronger than him precisely in this aspect; even though it was the same Separation and Reunion Divine Light, his was much stronger.

However, after returning this time, he was confident that he could elevate his newly refined Separation and Reunion Divine Light to a higher level!

Then, Shi Feiyang took out the Yang Talisman of the Five Clouds Separation and Union, which was a piece of black iron, less than a foot long, about two fingers wide and one finger thick, covered with dense scales, with ancient seal scripts on its belly, shaped like a pangolin, but with eighteen nine-clawed hooks underside, intricately and peculiarly crafted, its whole body jet black, looking devoid of any radiance.

This object and the Five Clouds Separation and Union Yin Talisman that Huo Wuhai obtained at Moon Island were originally a set.

These treasures consisted of two talismans, yin and yang; the Yang Talisman was sealed by Guang Chengzi in a Golden Ship, initially hidden in Kongtong Mountain and later flown to Yuan River, sank into a water eye.

The other Yin Talisman ended up in the hands of Emperor Xuanyuan, who, in ancient times, had sealed Guang Chengzi's Heavenly Book Lower Volume, Nine Heavens Yuan Yang Ruler, Gathering Essence and Refining Form Pill in three layers of a Jade Box, the topmost layer containing this Five Clouds Yin Talisman.

Later, the Jade Box was obtained by an Earth Immortal of a lesser path, who only opened the first layer, took out the Five Clouds Jade, and later used it to trade with Divine Monarch Lianshan for assistance in transcending a calamity. He eventually compiled all his lifelong learning into a book, named the Heavenly Book Supplement, and resealed it in the box, which ultimately came into the possession of Shi Feiyang.

Now, the two Talismans, after more than four thousand years, were finally reunited, truly qualifying as a heavy-weight Ancient Treasure.

In the past, Divine Monarch Lianshan had created many side path Magical Treasures, of varying levels of quality and effectiveness, but only the four treasures of stabilizing mountains were absolutely essential.

Lin Han's Xuan Guang Ruler was ranked fourth, Xiong Man had the Dragon Sparrow Ring ranked third, although she currently only had half of it, with the other half still in the hands of the Song Mountain elders; Jin Xunu's Taiyin Qingning Fan ranked second, but ultimately, the most formidable of the four treasures was this Five Clouds Jade.

This Five Clouds Yin Talisman, having been dedicatedly refined by Divine Monarch Lianshan for many years, ranked first among the four treasures. Now that the Talismans were reunited, Shi Feiyang passed on the matching Sacrificial Refinement method to Huo Wuhai for him to properly nurture and refine it: "In the future, when you and Shi Sheng go to the Demon Palace of the Jiulei God for an appointment, you will rely on it. Moreover, you have made a deep enemy of Evil Corpse Gu Chen, and in the future, you will still need to settle scores."

Huo Wuhai was overjoyed and repeatedly thanked his master for the grace.

Next, Shi Feiyang distributed the treasures one by one, the Golden Ship had many Magical Treasures, all of which could be considered Ancient Treasures, but many were ordinary weapons with little clever use, all needing to be re-refined, especially since many swords, axes, and spears were particularly oversized and cumbersome, making it impossible to carry them out without refining them to be controlled by the mind.

However, they were plentiful in number, and everyone who came up to Qiao Mountain today received a share, including the newly accepted disciples of Yuan Hua, the Five Immortal Apes, each receiving a Golden Sword, making the five little apes jump joyously on the spot, and upon their master's reminder, they quickly kowtowed to Shi Feiyang, their grandmaster.

In addition to Shi Feiyang's disciples, the core forces involved in the treasure retrieval, including the Qingcheng Sect and Snow Mountain Sect as well as Cang Lingzi's disciple Shi Wengong, the reborn Xiong Xue'er, were all given the best quality items.

Then there were the heroes from Mingyu Immortal Market; the Immortal Market defense battle was also arduously fought, fortunately ending safely thanks to the secret help of a senior from overseas.

Represented by Yu Xiao from the Kunlun Sect and the Seven Maidens of the Wudang Sect, they all made great efforts, with Yu Xiao even gathering many fellow disciples, and the Wudang Sect sending the Four Friends of Wudang.

There were also Shi Longgu, Lei Qilong, Bo Tiantong, and others; Bo Tiantong, a native of Earth Wood Island in North Sea, also invited a few friends to help this time, and Shi Feiyang distributed treasures to everyone equally.
