Jin Ling had a swift and decisive personality.
After speaking, she used the identity jade token exclusive to Personal Disciples to send Duobao a voice transmission.
A plump daoist in a bright yellow robe, with a round, honest face and Spiritual Treasures adorning his head, neck, wrists, and feet, tore through space and arrived outside Three Immortal Island.
"Hahahahaha!"
Before he even entered, Cangyuan heard Duobao's hearty laughter. "Junior Brother Cangyuan, congratulations on Attaining Great Luo Golden Immortal."
"Come to think of it, Junior Brother, you really are mysterious. Other than when our teacher accepted you as a disciple, it has been difficult to even see you. Hahahaha!"
Duobao took a step, vanished, and reappeared before them.
Hearing Duobao tease him, Cangyuan smiled sheepishly.
It really was true.
He had been in the sect for several Yuanhui—perhaps even over a dozen. Aside from meeting Duobao and the others when he had first paid respects to Sect Master Tongtian at Biyou Palace, he had either been causing trouble outside or cultivating in seclusion on Three Immortal Island. Other than the Sanxiao Sisters, he had barely interacted with these senior brothers and sisters of the Jie Sect, much less discussed the Dao with them.
"Enough, enough."
Jin Ling cut him off. Her golden almond eyes brimmed with blazing battle intent like the scorching sun as she stared at Cangyuan and smiled. "Come on, Little Junior Brother. I will not bully you. I'll suppress my cultivation to the Early Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm and fight you."
Cangyuan froze at that. "The Early Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal realm? Elder Sister Jin Ling, you have already reached the middle stage of Great Luo Golden Immortal?"
Jin Ling nodded lightly. "That's right."
Duobao smiled bitterly. "When it comes to cultivation, I truly cannot compare to Junior Sister Jin Ling."
Jin Ling curled her lips and bluntly exposed him. "Duobao, if you spent even half the effort you put into managing the Jie Sect on cultivation, you would also be a middle-stage Great Luo Golden Immortal by now."
Holy Mother Jin Ling was not good at management, and her temper was volatile and easily provoked, so Sect Master Tongtian had not entrusted the burden of managing the Jie Sect to her.
Duobao was the exact opposite. He was passionate about handling the sect's affairs and enjoyed doing so.
Thus, Duobao spent nearly half his time managing the Jie Sect.
Naturally, he had far less time for cultivation than Jin Ling.
Cangyuan was shocked.
How long had it been since Jin Ling Attained Great Luo Golden Immortal?
Had it been five Yuanhuis?
Yet she had already broken through another minor realm in such a short time.
Worthy indeed of being the Jie Sect's Elder Sister.
That talent for cultivation...
At this rate, during the era of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Jin Ling would likely sever her corpse and attain the Dao as a Quasi-Saint.
Come to think of it, how many Quasi-Saints did the Jie Sect have during the Investiture of the Gods War...
Duobao was one.
Jin Ling was one.
Wudang was one.
Guiling was one.
Yunxiao was one.
Who else had been a Quasi-Saint?
Cangyuan could not remember.
But five Quasi-Saints were already ridiculously impressive!
One sect suppressing two sects!
When it came to teaching disciples how to cultivate, Sect Master Tongtian truly was the greatest among the Three Pure Ones.
"Stop talking nonsense."
Jin Ling looked at Cangyuan again, her tone growing impatient. "Are we fighting or not? Give me a straight answer. Stop dawdling."
Cangyuan nodded. "Elder Sister Jin Ling, please show mercy."
Cangyuan had figured it out. Jin Ling was determined to fight him today.
No, that sounded too crude. It should be called exchanging pointers on the Dao.
Perfect.
Cangyuan also wanted to see just how strong he was when he fought at full strength!
Come to think of it, ever since crossing into the Prehistoric World, Cangyuan had never properly fought anyone in a battle of Dao arts.
"That's more like it."
"Battle in the void!"
With that, Jin Ling shot into the air and vanished into the void.
After all, Three Immortal Island was the dojo of the Sanxiao Sisters, Cangyuan, and Bai Lianxin. If Great Luo Golden Immortals fought here, they would inevitably damage the island. Moving the battlefield elsewhere was therefore necessary.
Cangyuan smiled and followed her into the void.
Duobao and Wudang tore open space, using Great Luo divine power to hold the surrounding rift apart so it would not close. They stood outside and watched the two fight.
Within the void.
Jin Ling brought out her entire arsenal.
The High Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—Flying Gold Sword—rang with boundless sword cries. Sharp sword qi danced wildly, and Sword Dao Law permeated the space around Jin Ling, making her resemble a war goddess clad in golden robes.
The High Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure—Dragon Tiger Ruyi—hovered at her side. Terrifying dragon and tiger phantoms manifested, suppressing the void amid dragon roars and tiger howls, exuding majestic might!
The Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure—Four Symbols Pagoda—hung above her head, evolving Earth, Water, Fire, and Wind. It was as though an illusory Great World was created with every breath, only to perish in the next instant.
This was Holy Mother Jin Ling's entire arsenal.
Two High Grade Innate Spiritual Treasures and one Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure.
Of course, Jin Ling also possessed some low- and mid-grade Innate Spiritual Treasures, as well as Houtian Spiritual Treasures. However, those treasures offered little help in a battle at their level, so she did not bring them out.
"Little Junior Brother, here I come."
Holy Mother Jin Ling looked valiant and heroic. Though she possessed the beautiful, refined face of a mature beauty, she radiated an immense pressure!
Jin Ling poured her Great Luo divine power into the Dragon Tiger Ruyi, raised her hand into a sword gesture, and pointed casually at Cangyuan. "Go!"
The Dragon Tiger Ruyi erupted with dragon roars and tiger howls. Dragon and tiger phantoms swirled around it, its might vast as the void trembled!
Even a fellow Great Luo Golden Immortal would likely have their head explode and their Primordial Spirit flee if they were carelessly struck by Jin Ling's attack.
Facing Jin Ling's merciless strike, Cangyuan showed no panic. A gentle smile remained on his face, as if nothing could ever make him reveal fear or cowardice.
When the Dragon Tiger Ruyi, carrying the forms of a dragon and tiger, was still one million li away from Cangyuan, he calmly summoned a strangely shaped Spiritual Treasure from his Primordial Spirit.
The treasure was shaped like a copper coin, round as Heaven and square as Earth, with two tiny wings growing from its sides.
It was none other than the Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure—Treasure Dropping Golden Coin!
Treasure Dropping Golden Coin could consume its owner's destiny to bring down any Spiritual Treasure beneath an Innate Supreme Treasure!
It was truly terrifying!
"Treasure Dropping Golden Coin, fall!"
Cangyuan activated the Treasure Dropping Golden Coin, and it flapped its little wings as it flew eagerly toward the Dragon Tiger Ruyi.
Jin Ling: "???"
"What Spiritual Treasure is that? Why can't I sense even the slightest offensive power from it?"
Just as Jin Ling wondered what kind of Spiritual Treasure it was, she understood in the next moment.
That strangely shaped Spiritual Treasure actually flew above her Dragon Tiger Ruyi, blooming with ten thousand zhang of treasure light. The Law of Commerce circulated, forming an unseen transaction.
(With Martial Dao Destiny and the Human Race's Destiny protecting me, I can afford this little expense. The main thing is to test how effective it is at bringing down Spiritual Treasures.)
As the Treasure Dropping Golden Coin came into contact with the Dragon Tiger Ruyi, the Ruyi's Spiritual Treasure radiance abruptly dimmed. Its treasure aura vanished, and it fell like an ordinary object toward the dust.
Jin Ling also felt her connection with the Dragon Tiger Ruyi being severed unilaterally.
Cangyuan had long been prepared. The Hand of Nothingness reached out, seized the Dragon Tiger Ruyi, and drew it back.
The Treasure Dropping Golden Coin then flew back to Cangyuan's side as if it had returned victorious from battle.
Jin Ling: "..."
Duobao sucked in a cold breath. "Hiss!? This Spiritual Treasure can actually bring down another person's treasure? Wouldn't that make it the nemesis of all Spiritual Treasures?!"
Wudang remained silently speechless. "..."
