"Zheng Yuantian, I'm sending you on your way!" Wang Xuan said calmly. The opportunity was right in front of him. If he still couldn't kill this great scourge, he might as well commit suicide.

This time, he stayed away from Zheng Yuantian and did not knock on the furnace lid at his current secluded cultivation location to attract people. Instead, he chose to stay at Zheng Yuantian's current training ground.

Because all parties involved are ruthless characters, some people may now suspect that Zheng Yuantian is involved and are likely keeping an eye on him.

At that time, Wang Xuan will have no way to harm him.

He was in a huge city, not far from the destroyed Dojo. He wanted people to mistakenly believe that the problem lay with this place, not with Zheng Jueshi.

Old Zheng fled, leaving the dilapidated Dojo quite empty.

In the megacity, traffic and people were bustling. Before the end of the world, many people were living a life of debauchery, numbing themselves with elixirs. Others had obtained a spot and didn't care anymore, raising their glasses to celebrate and waiting for migration.

Wang Xuan gently tapped the Nurturing Life Furnace, secretly controlling the rhythm, tapping it a little longer than before to see what difference it would make.

The lid of the Nurturing Life Furnace trembled silently. This time, he observed it with his Spiritual Heavenly Eye and vaguely saw special patterns floating into the void.

That looked like some kind of writing, or perhaps a special signal. Could it be that these treasures could actually communicate?

A moment later, Wang Xuan stopped. The lid of the Nurturing Life Furnace was slightly warm, and he saw a blurry image of the Nurturing Life Furnace floating in the endless flames.

Then, the World-Crossing Sword, the Carefree Boat, and the Ascension Banner appeared all at once, seemingly melting in the firelight, roaring amidst their dazzling patterns.

Wang Xuan took a deep breath, his heart surging with emotion. These were four priceless treasures that had once been in the same place.

The outermost layer is Karma Fire that can burn down the entire world. Inside, layer upon layer, there are many kinds of incredible flames. What is this doing?

"Who exactly is it that collected all the treasures?" He was deeply moved, but since the Dao Control Banner was missing, it wasn't a complete sweep.

What are we supposed to do?

No wonder these treasures are connected; they once resonated with each other, were in the same place, and underwent the baptism of a special sea of fire, their fates intertwined.

"Hiss!" Suddenly, Wang Xuan was even more astonished. The flames were endless, and they were pieces of yellow paper money, pieces of colorful real crystal, and pieces of huge Meteorite Fragment. Were they Real Substance? He kept throwing them in, using them as firewood.

Is the intention to destroy the Four Treasures and melt them down?

He clearly saw that at the last moment, the lid of the Nurturing Life Furnace opened, allowing the other three treasures to enter it, and then the lid closed, leaving him to endure the fiery refining process alone.

Finally, deep within the strange flames, at the height of its splendor, everything suddenly vanished.

Wang Xuan was lost in thought. Who had obtained the four treasures? It was astonishing. And what place was that? Someone wanted to melt them down, but the Nurturing Life Furnace withstood the flames alone.

If we understand it this way, the Nurturing Life Furnace has done a favor to those three treasures, so its gentle pulse can easily resonate with the other treasures.

In the sky, streaks of light appeared, more than one. First was the Carefree Boat, a supreme treasure with extreme speed, which could easily enter the Highest Grade Mental World and gather celestial herbs as if walking on flat ground.

Next came the World-Crossing Sword, which cleaved the heavens and earth with a single strike, and flew out of the void to this place as well.

Next came the Ascension Banner, which shook violently, dragging Heng Jun. He gripped it tightly with both hands, as if it were hanging behind him, like a tail, passively coming!

Heng Jun was stunned. He had never experienced anything like this before. Had this treasure gone mad? He hadn't even activated it, and it was already running around like this!

Then, his eyes widened, and even this peerless master lost his composure. Was it a meeting of supreme treasures? They've all come out, three at once!

Then he felt a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. Was the Ascension Banner a spirit? Although he couldn't communicate with it, it was essentially biased towards him, leading him to find treasure.

With a bang, he changed his mind the next moment. In this area, the three treasures resonated together, making Heng Jun feel excited and passionate on the spot, like fireworks blooming and firecrackers exploding.

Fortunately, he was incredibly powerful, and the three treasures were not unleashing their full power, but rather resonating with each other. Therefore, his foundation of the Great Dao was not torn apart.

His physical body was damaged, but he quickly regenerated his flesh and blood on the spot, and held Death Zone to the Ascension Banner, afraid that it would run away for no reason.

"What kind of demon is causing trouble? Hmm, is it a gathering of supreme treasures? We must catch one!" Even Zhang Daoling's main body awakened, opened his Heavenly Eye, and divine light tore through the void. He immediately rushed over.

Even Fang Yuzhu and the Demon Lord, who had traveled to other immortal realms and were in another great curtain, were alarmed and turned back, crossing the curtain.

As for the "Nether Blood Sect Ancestor," they all came one after another, alarming everyone. This made Old Underworld's main body turn green. He wanted to shout, "They're all fake!"

"At first, I thought it was related to Zheng Yuantian, but now it seems it's related to this area!" someone said. This is also why some people always target Zheng Yuantian. They feel that he is quite special today, attracting treasures, and they want to capture him and study him carefully.

Moreover, some people have started watching him closely, wanting to wait and see if anything else unusual will occur.

This was also what Wang Xuan was worried about, so this time he chose to stay away from Zheng Jueshi.

So far, the results have been excellent; the "Nether Blood Sect Ancestor" have abandoned Zheng Yuantian and all come here.

Wang Xuan calmly left the giant city, walking slowly towards Old Zheng. He walked faster and faster until he was like Divine Rainbow traversing the heavens and earth.

Zheng Yuantian was undergoing a tribulation. Today, he was facing a life-or-death ordeal. The ancient curse on his body had thinned, and he was being strangled by the golden scroll, feeling like he was dying. His face was pale.

Although he had fallen from the highest level and his foundation was torn apart, leaving him almost completely ruined, he still managed to sense the movement in the distance.

He thought, "Is something strange happening? Is the Supreme Treasure holding a meeting?" He refused to believe it was such a coincidence. There must be some change in this. Could it be that the place he left was special?

He was unwilling to accept it. Had he missed something? But in the end, he exhaled a sigh of relief. It was better to get away from there; otherwise, Old Schemer might have tried to kill him.

At the same time, his heart pounded and he felt cold. His primordial spirit felt uncomfortable and his heart raced violently. He felt as if some monstrous disaster was about to befall him.

"It's somewhat hazy, somewhat blurry. Unless a supreme treasure has disturbed the secrets of heaven, preventing me from keenly grasping the source of the crisis," Old Zheng said in horror.

He suddenly raised his head and looked towards the End of the Sky, where he judged that it must be the three treasures. There were still people who coveted him and wanted to kill him.

"Could it be that someone has seized the World-Crossing Sword or the Carefree Boat and is coming here to kill me?" He was certain that it was not Heng Jun, who was holding the Ascension Banner.

He turned and fled into the void, choosing to escape first to avoid future regrets!

"The peerless old demon is too vigilant. He's trying to escape already? But it's too late!" Wang Xuan has already arrived, mingling among a group of passing cultivators. He has fallen behind and is now activating the light orbs bestowed by Fang Yuzhu, Zhang Daoling, and others.

With a hum, the world dried up completely. Wang Xuan activated two orbs of light, one a protective one that enveloped him, and the other a killing one that struck at Zheng Yuantian!

Both orbs of light were meticulously constructed by peerless experts, their interiors inscribed with endless, dense patterns representing the highest rules of the immortal path.

In the human world, it would be impossible to be this exaggerated, since the rules of mythology have collapsed and the Supernatural World has crumbled, but it's different here.

Once activated, the ball of light instantly absorbed Super Material in this universe. Unparalleled rules intertwined, like a sea, like a million mountains, oppressing people to the point of suffocation, undulating like a nebula, enveloping heaven and earth.

The void exploded and shattered instantly. Zheng Yuantian flew towards the sky, trying to escape, but it was no use. He was hit by a blinding beam and was instantly obliterated!

What is that? A mirror-like surface, dazzlingly brilliant; even the sun, bursting open, appears dim in its presence. This is a Mirror Light Talisman, one of Old Zhang's signature skills. There's a reason he always carries that broken bronze mirror around.

After Zheng Yuantian was struck by the light, he was shattered to pieces. He was not at a high enough level to withstand such a devastating blow. The ancient curse light that Heng Jun given him had already dimmed, otherwise Wang Xuan would not have made his move.

Not only that, after the sky exploded, countless mountains collapsed on the ground, and huge cracks appeared in the void, spreading for an unknown distance, both in the Heaven and Earth.

Wang Xuan was shocked and felt a chill run down his spine. Old Zhang's talisman was really powerful. He secretly wiped away cold sweat, thankfully he had wrapped himself in a protective talisman beforehand.

At first, he was still feeling the pinch, wondering if he might have been too cautious and wasted a peerless divine ability. Now it seems that was fortunate.

Otherwise, he would be gone too. Even the remaining light waves, the mirror runes pouring down, could have wiped him out completely.

Sizzle!

Wang Xuan made another move, another ball of light, the immortal light from Fang Yuzhu, which shot into the distance, annihilating all life and reflecting on Zheng Jueshi, searching for his Primordial Spirit Fragment.

It can be said that Fang Yuzhu's great supernatural power was very targeted, prepared specifically to deal with Zheng Yuantian, and it was perfect.

Almost instantly, the nine pools of black blood remaining in the void were swept by the light of immortality, illuminating them, and then began to be strangled.

That black blood was so unusual, as black as ink, devouring all light. Even from a great distance, a foul stench wafted through the air, threatening to destroy one's very being. It was like the putrid blood of ancient times, giving people a terrifying and unpleasant feeling.

"Ah..." Living beings howled in the nine pools of black blood, being obliterated by the light of immortality, which continuously annihilated the remaining core primordial spirit imprints.

"Is it that terrifying? He's already fallen from his cultivation level and is no longer a peerless master. Old Zhang's powerful divine ability couldn't completely kill him?" Wang Xuan was moved, a chill running down his spine. This was truly astonishing.

The light of immortality begins to strangle and obliterate the black blood.

Wang Xuan gritted his teeth without hesitation; if he was going to kill him, he would kill him completely, leaving him no chance.

In an instant, he summoned another ball of light, a powerful divine ability given to him by the Demon Lord Yanyan. It was very practical and transformed into a pure white palm.

At the same time, Wang Xuan became furious and brought out the lid of the Nurturing Life Furnace. His large, white hand grabbed the lid and smashed it forward.

The furnace lid swelled up, marking the first time in recent history that it had received an infusion of infinite Super Material and been harnessed by unparalleled laws to annihilate its enemies.

Fang Yuzhu's immortal light obliterated the nine clusters of black blood and primordial spirits. However, now that the Demon Lord's Void Giant Hand has slammed down the supreme treasure, the interwoven patterns on the furnace lid reflect the void, revealing a tenth cluster of black blood. It is a very small cluster, hidden in a void rift, barely visible.

But in the end, it was illuminated!

Boom!

A large, pure white hand formed from the laws of nature brought down the furnace lid, smashing it down and turning everything to ashes, leaving nothing behind.

"Old Zheng, I'll visit your grave another day!" Wang Xuan turned around decisively, preparing to run away. The protective light on his body was very solid and had not yet dissipated.

However, the furnace lid has not been retracted yet and is still in an enlarged state.

"I... Sister Fang said, I said, I Zhang said, do I still have to waste a great divine power?!" He didn't have time to wait for the furnace lid to cool down and shrink automatically, as a peerless master from afar could descend upon this place at any moment.

A beam of Immortal Divine Light appeared, crimson as blood. This was the great divine power given to him by the Nether Blood Sect Ancestor, which grabbed the furnace lid. His heart was bleeding; even acquiring a treasure required consuming divine power, the cost was too high.

Bang!

Just then, with the help of the Nether Blood Sect Ancestor's great supernatural power, he activated the furnace lid, harnessed the supreme treasure, and directly pierced through the void, disappearing from here in an instant!

This had already exhausted his five great supernatural powers, but he did not hesitate at all. His direction and goal were very clear: to rush to Heng Jun 'Dojo, to smash up the dojo while he was away from home, and to dig up the First Tea Tree.

In his view, that might not be a tea tree. If it were properly cultivated in the Land of Nothingness, it might become a True Medicine plant!
