Jade Capital's Lost Treasure

Lightning flashed and thunder roared over Double Tree Village, and surprisingly, Black and White clouds appeared!

Liu Mo Chongxiao into the sky, no longer looking old and decrepit; his eyes were like two small Solar Yang.

The thick clouds trembled and spun violently because of him, forming a giant Taiji Diagram.

A crimson phantom appeared in the night sky, hurtling towards them at breakneck speed—it was the Blood Kite that had been roaming the vicinity for five hundred years.

With a clang, a rusty War Spear engraved with divine patterns suddenly appeared from within the Black and White clouds and landed in Liu Mo's hand.

Then, pure white bones flew over, one by one, piece by piece, all like mutton fat jade, rapidly shrinking and connecting into a string, transforming into a crystal-clear bone chain.

Liu Mo, clad in skin and bone, exuded a terrifying aura!

With a deafening roar, the enormous Taiji Diagram exploded, as if countless bolts of lightning had pierced through the clouds. He vanished from the scene in an instant, disappearing into the distance.

Deep in the sky, fierce Astral Wind, growing more terrifying the higher one goes, capable of scattering the Consciousness Spirit Light.

Above the Nine Heavens, there are some eerie areas where the unique Astral Wind can even extinguish Pure Yang Consciousness.

Liu Mo set out silently, searching for the Sky City.

A city, high in the Above the Nine Heavens, is naturally related to Grotto-Heaven.

Finally, Liu Mo saw the Golden Palace Gate!

It was extremely decayed and dilapidated, barely Grotto-Heaven Ruins.

The surrounding area was dark and gloomy, like a desolate wasteland.

Liu Mo stared intently at the Grotto-Heaven shrouded in night mist, his eyes deep and unfathomable. He said, "No wonder you've all been 'indifferent to worldly affairs' all these years. What have you to fight with? Your strength no longer allows it; you've shrunk your battle lines. This is a deliberate act of avoiding the world."

The broken entrance to the Golden Palace glowed faintly; it was severely damaged.

The so-called Heavenly Being were alarmed upon learning of the appearance of Number Seven and Number Eight. The Earth Immortal immortals were revived and went to hunt down the two wanted criminals by the Jade Capital.

And just then, Old Liu arrived!

"Unbeknownst to us, five hundred years have passed. It seems that a truly terrifying event has occurred in the world. The Grotto-Heaven are all damaged and half-ruined. No wonder there are no Heavenly God or Heavenly Immortal in this era; at best, one can only become Earth Immortal."

Even Liu Mo was moved when he saw this scene.

The upheaval brewed silently and erupted without spreading across the ground.

Liu Mo arrived in the city Above the Nine Heavens, his body vanishing without a trace. Black and White energy appeared in his hand, transforming into Yin-Yang Brush, which he intended to quietly sever certain Dao Chains.

"You're getting off easy, you little brats."

Before him was a stone book, enormous, resembling a mountain, containing a number of names.

"Hmm, it was already broken?" Liu Mo asked in surprise.

He vanished in a flash, sensing someone's arrival, who also seemed to be an outsider.

"Could there be others on the same path?" Liu Mo went away and observed in the shadows. Then, deep in his eyes, a scene of shifting stars and cascading Daoist energy appeared.

"A 𫆏!" Even Old Liu was shocked. Ordinary people could never see such a creature. Now, an exceptionally powerful 𫆏, far surpassing its kind, had actually appeared in the Above the Nine Heavens.

"Alright, you can cover for me and walk in front, I'll hide."

It's not easy for Liu Mo to Sever the Past and New Life anew. The influence of Jade Capital is too great and omnipresent. He is making his final preparations.

His sending the Dog Sword Immortal out was merely a feint.

He came here to test the waters and gauge the pressure, to avoid falling into a period of weakness and becoming completely disoriented while waiting for recovery, which could lead to a real disaster.

"The remaining amount of True Tribulation Light in the heavens is limited. Over the past five hundred years, I've missed a terrifying and extraordinary event!"

He gradually became certain that there were indeed no more Heavenly God or Heavenly Immortal in the area Jade Capital Radiation.

The ground was shrouded in endless darkness.

Auspicious clouds swept by, carrying experts into the "gate." Following the will of the Jade Capital, a group of people chased after two wanted criminals with significant backgrounds.

Yuheng turned around and sighed, "It's like a tiger fallen into the plains being bullied by dogs. Even you little brats dare to target us now."

He exuded an aura of decay; if he could still wield Heavenly God power, these people would not dare to pursue him and would have been wiped out long ago.

Mo Yuan spoke up, "Actually, there's another big fish lurking in the mortal world; you can go and investigate it."

He wanted to involve Liu Mo to attract the attention of the Heavenly Being.

"Others are unimportant!" a Earth Immortal being interrupted him.

What a joke! Two corrupt, fallen Heavenly God are already a huge problem. They really don't want to involve too many people. Do you really think they want to investigate this kind of "old case"? If things go wrong, they could get themselves involved.

Yuheng unleashed a blinding barrage of runes, shattering the dark clouds, and declared, "He's more powerful than us!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Qinghe and the others were even less inclined to get involved, seeing no need to complicate the situation.

"Gentlemen, your bloodshed is actually not important!" one of the envoys said.

Boom!

Between heaven and earth, the order of thunder surged like Jiang Hai, and light shone brightly as the two sides talked and fought at the same time.

"Hmm?" Yuheng and Mo Yuan were both taken aback upon hearing this.

A Earth Immortal being solemnly said, "You two, hand over the 'secret artifact' from the past, and your past sins can be mitigated, and you will be punished leniently."

What the hell?

The two decaying Heavenly God were stunned upon hearing this, clearly bewildered. Their hands were indeed stained with blood back then, but what was the nature of this "secret artifact"?

The two were initially bewildered, then frowned. Was there some misunderstanding?

"Don't you know what you took from Jade Capital?" an envoy said in a deep voice.

"No way?!" Yuheng immediately paled.

In the past, when chaos broke out in Jade Capital, Liu Mo took the opportunity to escape. They followed him and managed to get away safely.

Under these circumstances, how could they possibly have the confidence to steal the treasure?

After thinking it over, the two men's eyes widened. Had they stole something and touched a priceless treasure?

But they didn't take it seriously; they threw away what needed to be thrown away and discarded what needed to be discarded. Did they miss out on something by doing that?

Yuheng, breathing heavily, asked urgently, "What exactly is missing from Jade Capital?!"

"Don't you know what you've done? A piece of cloth, a stone," an old Earth Immortal said.

In fact, they didn't know what the two secret items were for, but the orders from above were to retrieve them.

"I missed out on a priceless treasure in the Jade Capital." Mo Yuan felt a tightness in his chest. What kind of fortuitous opportunity had they missed back then?

In the past, a strange event occurred in Jade Capital. A corner of the Jade Temple collapsed, and rocks tumbled down from the clouds. When the two escaped, they merely picked up two items and didn't think much of it.

When they ambushed Liu Mo, they smashed a stone at the back of his head. Even before it got close, the stone from the Jade Temple dimmed, its spirituality faded, and it shattered into pieces.

Is there something in the stone?

"What if Liu Mo takes me away?"

Both corrupt Heavenly God showed regret. It was clearly a treasure, blown outside the Jade Capital, which they caught as a cornerstone of the Jade Temple and then used to smash people!

"Heaven's will is obscured; perhaps... it has fallen into the Kunling Territory!" One of the envoys, his eyes gleaming, temporarily believed their words.

"Go back and investigate!" Mu Qinghe decided that even if she had to turn the entire Kunling upside down, she would still try to find it.

Several Earth Immortal Capital from outside Night Prefecture had bright eyes. Could it be that such a celestial treasure was left behind near Kunling long ago, and remains unclaimed to this day?

"Where is that piece of cloth?" the old Earth Immortal asked.

"Throw it away!" Yuheng was filled with resentment, feeling it was such a pity.

When he first grabbed the piece of cloth that was falling down, he discovered that it was woven from various kinds of Exotic Metal, and naturally realized that it was an extraordinary material.

Although he took it with him, he was filled with apprehension, guessing that it might be the battle armor of some important figure, and fearing that he would be traced back, so he abandoned it on the way.

He said in a muffled voice, "I feel that it was guided away by a small, dilapidated altar on the Kunling Mountains."

Although he was heartbroken, he felt that if he could clear things up and stop being hunted down by Jade Capital, then missing out on the treasure would be completely worthwhile.

In this land, many paths lead to the Jade Capital, but most of them are now deserted.

Several Earth Immortal from the heavens were filled with excitement, and two of them immediately went to search the desolate secret path, hoping to make a significant discovery today.

However, a moment later, they returned with grim faces, having discovered that there was no such thing as a divine gift.

You're lying!

"Take it down!"

The Earth Immortal ' attempt to capture the two former Celestial Heavenly God infuriated Yuheng and Mo Yuan. Their revelation of the so-called truth, coupled with being hunted down by the younger generation, truly infuriated them.

The pitch-black clouds were ignited, night turned into day, Divine Rainbow Chongxiao the sky, a massive, dark blue hand covered the heavens, and all sorts of wondrous treasures danced in the air...

This area has become incredibly terrifying, with energy runes resembling a vast Xinghai covering the sky, creating a horrifying scene of destruction.

"If the war between Earth Immortal was already like this, what was it like during the era when Heavenly God and Heavenly Immortal were active?"

In the Earthen City, some daring individuals crossed the gates to watch the battle from across the distant night sky.

In fact, some people wanted to take advantage of the chaos and search for divine objects in the Heavenly God Daoist Grounds, hoping to gain some good fortune.

However, the group of people were dumbfounded. In the shimmering golden Immortal Lake, there were no Golden Lotus Pod, not even lotus leaves, and the lotus roots had all been pulled out.

Not a single fish fry remained in the lake!

They realized something: the so-called "going to cut off the enemy's retreat" by the Night Prefecture's Ancestor was not about intercepting and killing the two old monsters at all, but about cutting off the Heavenly God's backyard.

It all stems from the fact that Night Prefecture has quite a few Ancestor, but at this stage, resources are scarce. They want to expand the roads, but they have reached a bottleneck period due to resource shortages. Therefore, they are all very frugal and have a simple and honest folk custom.

The battle between the Earth Immortal was incredibly terrifying, even sending chills down the spines of distant Grandmaster who witnessed it. They felt that a casual strike possessed the power to destroy a city and slaughter powerful clans, truly awe-inspiring.

A Earth Immortal was severely injured, his blood splattering across the night sky.

"Since you are so stubborn and insist on going against the will of the Jade Capital, then we have no choice but to use the ultimate weapon!" an old Earth Immortal immortal said.

At this moment, extraordinary treasures appeared in their hands, all radiating a divine light.

Mu Qinghe held a scroll depicting the Jade Capital, hazy yet sacred, radiating a terrifying pressure.

Others held miniature versions of the Jade Capital City, carved from divine jade. When held in the palm of their hand, these figures emitted countless rays of light, resembling a Solar Yang illuminating Night Mist World.

"Boom!"

All these rare treasures related to the Jade Capital were now being summoned by the killing light from the Above the Nine Heavens, with terrifying Dao Chains shooting down towards the two decaying old monsters.

"What's going on? The killing light is too intense!"

"The Dao Chains have gone out of control! Above the Nine Heavens, the 'inventory' in the Golden Palace... has all poured down!"

The Earth Immortal from heaven cried out in alarm, not because he was worried about the lack of power, but because he was terrified of the excessive power and the enormous consumption of energy. This battle would destroy all of his stored reserves.

"Ah..." Yuheng screamed in agony. He was no longer Heavenly God after all. At this moment, he was pierced by the dazzling Dao Chains, and his entire body was burning.

Immediately, he transformed into a human skin, his blood surging, and he was rapidly burned to pieces. It was clear that he could not survive and was heading towards ultimate destruction.

Mo Yuan was in no better shape. Covered by the True Tribulation Light, his true form was gradually revealed: an aged skeleton with a decaying aura, the bones of Heavenly God that had lost their spirituality.

The bones are breaking, shattering, and will eventually perish.

The Earth Immortal were shocked and couldn't stop. The Dao Chains chains from the Above the Nine Heavens were inexhaustible and wouldn't stop until they were completely exhausted.

They watched helplessly as the two old monsters were destroyed, leaving no survivors.

"They may not be the real ones!"

"Could they possibly live a completely new life, free from the influence of Jade Capital?"

"A withered vine sprouts new roots, a diseased tree bursts forth with new buds; perhaps these two are not dead, but awaiting New Life. However, I feel there's a major problem with them. If they could truly break free from the past, they wouldn't retain so much power in their old bodies."

Nearby, the night sky was clear and bright. The True Tribulation Light slowly dissipated, but the remaining Daoist charm still illuminated the sky, and the Black Mist was dispelled.

The ground was shattered, and large swathes of mountains were broken, creating a terrifying scene; this entire area had been leveled.

A sudden and intense battle has now come to an end.

Mu Qinghe and the others looked grim. The Earth Immortal from heaven hurriedly departed, intending to return and investigate what exactly had happened in the Golden Palace.

Two days later, the turmoil gradually subsided.

The Earth Immortal immortals in the Above the Nine Heavens did not descend again; something seemed to have happened there.

However, many teenagers, and some young people, were sent down to the ground.

An old man spoke, "In this era of geniuses soaring into the sky and stars shining brightly, everything is just beginning, and the future is uncertain. Perhaps, the Scorching Sun will be born among you."

"Didn't they say that this generation of Scorching Sun might have already been born on the ground?" someone asked.

The old man said, "That's why I sent you here to hone your skills, to interact more with the people on the ground, to learn from each other, and to improve yourselves."

He then added, "Moreover, there has never been a saying that there can only be two suns in the sky. In the distant past, there were even instances of Ten Suns Across the Sky."

"Shall we learn from the Scorching Sun on the ground?" Clearly, these youths were incredibly arrogant and came with high expectations.

In their minds, the Scorching Sun can only be born in the sky, but now they have come to the ground to hone their skills. This descent into a lower dimension, asking questions of ordinary people, is truly a banishment to the mortal realm.

Despite widespread discontent, they complied with the arrangements.

Now that things have gone wrong in Sky City, they have no choice but to descend to the mortal realm.

Su Moran and Gao Chan were responsible for leading a group of teenagers to meet some powerful figures on the ground.

"Aren't these Ancestor from Night Prefecture going a bit too far? They're not showing enough respect to the celestial Earth Immortal." A young man spoke up, already aware of what had happened two days ago.

Someone responded, "All words and actions are based on strength!"

The group of teenagers looked over and discovered that the speaker was a Yellow Hair with a rather aggressive tone.

Qin Ming and Little Wu looked across and saw a group of young boys and Yellow Hair, all of them quite young.

Su Moran said, "Brother Qin, Brother Xiang, Brother Wu, I'm sorry to bother you..." She briefly explained her purpose.

Clearly, she held Qin Ming, Xiang Yiwu, and the others in high regard and hoped they could guide these young men.

She could even secretly send a telepathic message, giving him a sharp rebuke.

"No problem." Wu Yaozu nodded.

"Are all people on Earth this arrogant?" a boy from the sky sneered.

These men and women, still quite young, were rather Qi Ingestion. They ranged in age from thirteen to sixteen and felt that the people in front of them were not much older than them, and were all Natives of the land. How could they possibly instruct them? What a joke!

They were dressed very elegantly, had a remarkable air about them, and were all of extremely high social standing.

Su Moran her voice. "This is paid guidance, so you can freely educate these young men and women."

"These children really need discipline," Wu Yaozu said.

Because a young girl was glancing at him sideways, with disdain and a defiant look.

Who is Little Wu? He immediately retorted because he had no intention of becoming a phoenix tail in the heavens; there seemed to be many problems Above the Nine Heavens.

He was immediately thrown into a hornet's nest.

"How dare you talk like that?" A group of teenagers gathered around.

Wu Yaozu asked Su Moran, "Is it okay to discipline him however you want?"

Su Moran nodded, agreeing that these teenagers definitely needed to suffer a bit.

Wu Yaozu said, "Alright, then come over and greet us, call us Master."

Immediately, the group of teenagers erupted in chaos. Were all their peers on the ground, not much older than them, so ignorant and arrogant? They were even more cocky than them!

Immediately afterwards, someone spoke disrespectfully and very unfriendly to Little Wu.

Wu Yaozu grabbed one of the most disruptive boys and said fiercely, "Since you've come to seek guidance, you should show the proper attitude. If you don't call me 'teacher,' do you really think I'm your father? I have no obligation to serve you."

Beside him, Gao Chan's face immediately darkened; that was his own brother.

"Let's see what you're made of!" Several people started to move.

As a result, Qin Ming's Spiritual Field expanded, suppressing them all and forcing them to bow their heads.

Wu Yaozu said, "This is your Master Qin. If you miss this opportunity to pay your respects, it will be useless for you to call him 'Father Qin' in the future, and you will regret it for the rest of your life."

Beside her, Su Moran's face darkened slightly. Her cousin was inside; did this "Father Qin" mean she had to be a generation younger than him?

"We're of the same generation, so I can't really offer any guidance," Qin Ming said calmly as he withdrew the Spiritual Field.

Those people stepped back, but a young girl stepped forward to greet them, her attitude sincere, and she actually wanted to become their disciple.

"I was just joking!" Even Wu Yaozu was taken aback; he had only been annoyed by their attitude earlier.

However, the girl was stubborn and had bright eyes, insisting on becoming Qin Ming's disciple, which was rather abrupt.

Su Moran's expression stiffened slightly; that was her cousin.

The girl's companion was shocked and said, "Are you crazy? He hasn't even reached the Fourth Realm yet. With your talent, you'll surpass him in another year or two. And you want to become his disciple? By making this choice, you're bound to lose to your competitors. They've chosen Yuan, Golden Bodhi, Pure Yang Son, and others to help them hone their skills. You'll definitely be ridiculed by them!"
