Imitation Wu Shi Bell
Zhou Tong didn't want to cause any more trouble on the Undying Mountain. If he followed Ye Fan's original approach, it would be tantamount to courting death.
In the original story, Ye Fan's way of moving forward was basically to point and comment at every place he arrived at, looking for any benefits he could take, which alerted the patrolling beings in the Undying Mountain.
However, when he got to Zhou Tong, he didn't want to cause any trouble along the way. He just passed by everything quickly, without stopping at places like the Immortal Tear Green Gold Holy Spirit or the medicinal field. Instead, he kept speeding up.
The purpose of this trip to the Undying Mountain has been achieved; now we can simply leave.
Finally, they approached the central area of Undying Mountain, where twenty-seven towering mountains, as black as ink, were shrouded in ribbons of black mist, blocking their way.
"If there are twenty-seven mountains in the due east direction and twenty-seven in each of the other directions, that makes a total of one hundred and eight mountains!" Ye Fan was shocked as he looked at the mountain range at the core of the Undying Mountain.
"Never mind that, we're almost at the path to survival!" Zhou Tong glanced at Ye Fan, then immediately led the group toward the place with the strongest golden light, which was the path to survival set up by the Void Great Emperor.
Before long, the group passed through the forest and came to a huge chessboard, crisscrossed and covered with Dao Pattern.
"Is this something that left the Undying Mountain?" Pang Bo looked at the chessboard, a look of surprise on his face.
"This was left behind by the Void Great Emperor, and it's also the Life Gate for the entire Undying Mountain! But don't touch it carelessly. If you do, you might be teleported to an infinitely distant place, and you won't be able to find it again." Zhou Tong warned them, then stood there quietly studying the chessboard- Dao Pattern.
"Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!"...
The Hegemonic Bell resonated in Zhou Tong's heart, emitting a true bell sound. Before Zhou Tong even realized it, several Great Emperor's marks appeared on the bell's body, including the mark of the Void Great Emperor and the Ancient Emperor of the Undying Mountain.
When the Void Great Emperor first invaded, he confronted several Supreme Beings here, leaving their supreme imprints, which are now recorded by the Divine Mark Purple Gold.
Even with a fragment of the Void Great Emperor's Array Patterns and the Nine Secrets: Zu, Zhou Tong still spent a whole day thoroughly studying the Array Patterns before him.
He moved his hands across the chessboard's Array Patterns Chessboard Array Patterns, altering some of the details. Finally, he clapped his hands, and the group vanished into the depths of the Undying Mountain.
With a flash of light, the group instantly appeared in a completely new place.
"Bear!!"
The flames were endless, the golden flames surged like a sea of fire, and the essence of heavenly fire reached the sky.
"I... cough cough!!" Pang Bo was about to start cursing when a mouthful of fire essence rushed into his mouth, choking him and causing him to cough repeatedly.
"Where is this place? Where have we been teleported to?" Ye Fan frowned and asked.
"The Sun Star!"
Zhou Tong casually tossed the Vajra Ring into existence, instantly creating a safe zone within the sea of fire.
"The Sun Star? How did we suddenly end up here?" Ye Fan was shocked.
"Ahem, why did you bring us here?" Pang Bo asked.
"The last preparation before the plan begins! Speaking of which, Pang Bo, your Eternal Blue Gold hasn't been refined into your own weapon yet, has it? You can take advantage of these few days to hone it properly."
As Zhou Tong spoke, he had already walked to the area with the strongest firepower not far away, and he directly took out an item. It did not have a dazzling light, but rather a sacred and gentle radiance that calmed everyone's hearts.
"Great Luo Silver Essence, Little Tyrant preparing to refine something?" Pang Bo also looked over.
He recognized that this piece of Great Luo Silver Essence was one of the spoils he had obtained from extorting the Holy Land last time.
"Imitation Wu Shi Bell!"
Zhou Tong responded, ignoring Pang Bo's shocked expression, and immediately took action.
This piece of Great Luo Silver Essence was nearly one square meter in size. Zhou Tong cut off one-fifth of it and put the rest away.
Even one-fifth of the Great Luo Silver Essence is larger than Zhou Tong's Hegemonic Bell, and is twice the size of the Hegemonic Bell.
"Bear!!"
Without much thought, Zhou Tong directly activated the True Sun Fire, and the Great Luo Silver Essence quickly melted.
After all, it's just material for refining Heirloom Sacred Weapon, far inferior to Immortal Metal, which possesses the power of the Sun Star and can be easily melted.
"Next is the imprint of the Wu Shi the Great!" Zhou Tong immediately communicated with his Hegemonic Bell, copied the imprint of the Wu Shi the Great on it, and immediately imprinted it onto the melted Great Luo Silver Essence.
"Om!"
As soon as the imprint of the Wu Shi the Great entered the interior of the Great Luo Silver Essence, the liquid-like Great Luo Silver Essence immediately began to boil, and an ancient aura wafted over, as if this piece of Great Luo Silver Essence had suffered the ravages of time.
"The Nine Secrets: Dou evolves into the Wu Shi Bell; the Nine Secret: Bing refines the Wu Shi Bell!!"
Zhou Tong had seen the Wu Shi Bell in Purple Mountain and heard its sound up close. He remembered the image and sound of the Wu Shi Bell vividly.
At this moment, Zhou Tong clasped his hands together, which transformed into a large bell. The bell was imprinted with the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers, with billions of miles of landscape, as well as flowers, birds, fish, Star Scripture Myriad Heavens, and even gods kneeling on the ground. It was ancient, grand, and revealed the secrets of the beginning of heaven and earth.
The moment this giant bell appeared, the surrounding sea of fire paused, and its resounding chime was majestic and awe-inspiring.
Immediately afterwards, the Great Luo Silver Essence solution, which contained the imprint of the Wu Shi the Great, was instantly spread out, just like forging molten metal into a mold. The Great Luo Silver Essence solution instantly merged with the Wu Shi Bell evolved from the Nine Secrets: Dou.
The imprint of the Wu Shi the Great began to slowly exert its power, and the Dao and reason slowly intertwined on the entire replica of the Wu Shi Bell, and the level of the entire Imitation Wu Shi Bell was also slowly increasing.
It took Zhou Tong seven days to finally succeed in forging this large bell.
"When!!"
The resounding bell was deafening, almost like a sudden awakening, instantly bringing a sense of enlightenment. Ye Fan and Pang Bo, who were not far away, also showed a look of disbelief.
"Little Tyrant, did you really replicate the Wu Shi Bell?" Pang Bo was shocked.
"It's not difficult to replicate the Wu Shi Bell Imitation Wu Shi Bell, but the difficulty lies in the power of this replica. My replica only possesses the power of the lowest-level King's Divine Weapon!" Zhou Tong said softly.
However, to Pang Bo and Ye Fan, these words were already considered heaven-defying.
A cultivator who isn't even a king can actually forge a replica of Imperial Weapon that rivals King's Divine Weapon. This is simply defying the heavens!
"If the power is insufficient, we can consider secretly setting up a corner of the Wu Shi Killing Array inside!" Zhou Tong did as he thought of it, directly using the Nine Secrets: Zu to carve a corner of the Wu Shi Killing Array inside the replica of the Imperial Weapon.
A moment later, the brand-new "Wu Shi Bell" was produced.
With a corner of the Wu Shi Killing Array, this "Wu Shi Bell" barely possessed the power of Half-Saint weapon, and could even unleash a terrifying "extreme aura," provided it could withstand the consumption of the Great Emperor Killing Formation.
Today, this bell is less a replica of Imperial Weapon and more Array Diagram in the shape of a Wu Shi Bell.
"But Little Tyrant, why did you forge this replica of Imperial Weapon? You even wasted such a large piece of Great Luo Silver Essence. Even if Great Luo Silver Essence is not as precious as Immortal Metal, such a large piece is still worth several million or even tens of millions of kilograms of Origin!" Pang Bo, somewhat puzzled.
"Is something like a source really that important to us?"
Zhou Tong chuckled, then his expression turned serious. "It's starting. Get ready, we're going to take a trip to the Great Sage!"
