A Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, Then an Ambush by the Son of Primordial Phoenix, the Golden-winged Great Peng?

Countless mountains and ravines, brimming with spiritual beauty.

Wind brushed over the ten thousand miles of mountains in the Primordial Wilderness, while rain nourished the boundless lands and rivers.

Amid the vast mountains and rivers.

A white rainbow streaked across the sky.

It finally descended upon a graceful mountain peak that towered into the clouds, transforming into a handsome young man.

"Wuyi Mountain. After nearly two thousand years, I've finally arrived."

Qingyuan gazed at the towering mountain.

He could not help but let out a long breath of relief.

Though Wuyi Mountain was blessed with spiritual beauty, there were simply too many immortal mountains and Blessed Land Grotto-Heavens in the Primordial Wilderness of this era. Hidden among the mountains and rivers, it did not appear particularly extraordinary.

On the mountain.

There were quite a few unharvested Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, immortal roots, and spirit herbs.

Among them, Qingyuan even gathered a massive red tea tree. Its foundation was profound, and it was actually a fairly good Innate Spiritual Root. Cultivating beneath it could clear away distracting thoughts and stabilize one's spiritual platform.

Qingyuan was delighted.

He gathered them all and planted them within the Nine Heavens Breathing Soil.

Then he began searching Wuyi Mountain inch by inch, hoping to find the Falling Treasure Gold Coin. In the end, deep within the mountain, he found an exceedingly well-hidden Innate Restriction. Great Dao Law and Dao Resonance had formed a barrier to protect this Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, waiting for its destined owner before it emerged.

"How well hidden. If I hadn't attained an Innate Demon God Origin and received the talents of so many disciples, I'm afraid I truly wouldn't have had the fortune to encounter this treasure!"

Qingyuan revealed a joyful expression.

He softly called toward the Innate Restriction formation, "Falling Treasure Gold Coin!"

Rumble...

The mountain peak trembled.

The Innate Restriction Dao formation protecting the Falling Treasure Gold Coin gradually dissipated into the heavens and earth like flowing light. Qingyuan reached out and grasped the Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, joy rising in his heart.

No matter what side effects the Falling Treasure Gold Coin had.

It could not change the fact that it was a Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.

Though knocking down another's treasure would weaken one's Merit, Fortune Aura, and blessings.

At a critical moment of life and death, being able to knock down another's treasure meant a sliver of survival!

Just then.

A terrifyingly powerful gale swept over. A golden silhouette shot forward, its twin claws as indestructible as Primordial Fine Gold, clawing at Qingyuan's hand holding the Falling Treasure Gold Coin as an arrogant laugh rang out.

"Hahahaha! I saw a white rainbow fleeing through the sky earlier and followed out of curiosity. Who would've thought another opportunity would be waiting for me!"

"A Top-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure!!"

"Hand over your life!!!!"

A piercing cry shook Qingyuan's eardrums.

A vicious wind surged forth, sending sand and stones flying as the sky darkened.

Qingyuan focused his gaze and saw an enormous Great Peng Bird blotting out the sky, with the head of a golden-winged peng, starry eyes, and leopard-like eyes, flying toward him.

"Golden Immortal Middle Stage?"

Qingyuan tried to evade with a movement technique.

Yet he found the urge to dodge rising in his heart.

But in the unseen depths, he could sense that he had been locked onto.

It was as though no matter how he dodged, enlarged himself, or shrank himself, he would be caught by those golden hooks!

Clearly, his attacker had comprehended a trace of Space Law.

"I forgot that I'm a Golden Immortal too. Am I really supposed to be bullied by another Golden Immortal?"

Qingyuan put away the Falling Treasure Gold Coin.

The Primordial Ruler appeared in his hand.

Once the Golden-winged Great Peng drew close, he fiercely poured in surging mana and slammed it toward the twin hooks.

Boom!

The mountain peak cracked apart.

A massive wave of dust swept across the surroundings.

Qingyuan was only forced back a dozen or so steps. Mana circulated through his shattered arm, and his injuries swiftly healed.

But the Great Peng Bird's hands were struck by the Primordial Ruler.

Its flesh exploded!

At once, a strand of Primordial Unity Qi invaded its body, imprisoning its fleshly body and Primordial Spirit. Its thoughts grew increasingly sluggish and numb.

"What kind of treasure is this?"

The Golden-winged Great Peng gritted his teeth.

He used the Innate Yin-Yang Two Qi within his body to strike at the invading Law, only then easing the danger of his Primordial Spirit being imprisoned.

"You have impressive methods, sir. I'll remember today's grudge, and I will definitely repay it someday!!!"

The Great Peng Bird left behind a harsh threat.

It spread its wings and tried to flee.

But an abrupt change occurred.

A water sword carrying monstrous black waves, transforming into Kunpeng Momentum and mixed with boundless sword qi, swept over. A fire sword radiating brilliant heavenly fire, transforming into a Vermilion Bird and carrying fierce sword qi, sealed Heaven and locked Earth. The two merged into a terrifying Water-Fire Sword Formation, sealing Heaven and locking Earth, suppressing Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, and blocking the Great Peng Bird's escape route!!

"What vicious methods!"

The Golden-winged Great Peng glared at Qingyuan with hatred.

Then, in the next instant, his eyes widened in disbelief.

Outside the sword formation, Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams sealed the heavens and earth, the Four Symbols Sacred Beasts suppressed the Four Extremities, and Nine Blazing Sun Fire Dragons breathed flames!

Outside the great formation.

A rod of Divine Iron suppressed space, a Great Cauldron emitted devouring force, and a Mysterious Cold Light Divine Ruler breathed Yin-Yang.

High above, a blackish-purple Spiritual Treasure Gourd nurtured terrifying lightning!!!

Th-this-this... he actually had nowhere left to run??

"Y-you... who exactly are you?"

The Golden-winged Great Peng's expression was ugly, filled with both greed and fear.

Innate spiritual light shone from all these treasures. They were clearly all Innate Spiritual Treasures, but how could a mere Golden Immortal possess so many Innate Spiritual Treasures?

Wasn't that far too unbelievable?

Even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal might not possess a single Innate Spiritual Treasure, right?

More importantly, did this person have enough mana to activate so many of them?

Could he be a Grand Unity Golden Immortal pretending to be weak???

"Who I am is none of your business. Why did you suddenly attack me?"

Qingyuan's face turned cold. He crushed pill after pill between his teeth to sustain the formation and treasures, then shouted, "Don't even think of leaving today! Stay behind and let me roast some chicken wings!"

"Insolence! You dare humiliate me!!"

The Great Peng Bird was furious beyond words.

He desperately charged toward every direction using movement techniques.

His pair of golden wings spread out for a full thousand zhang. He wanted to flap them and escape, but the sword light from the Water-Fire Formation forced him back.

During this time, nine Fire Dragons also entered the formation and charged in to kill him.

Yin-Yang Two Qi flashed through the air like startled rainbows!

A jade-like Divine Iron rod smashed down across him!

Bright Divine Fire spewed from within the Creation Cauldron!

Even more terrifying, the blackish-purple Spiritual Treasure Gourd released dreadful lightning. Every flash made his fleshly body and Primordial Spirit tremble uncontrollably!!!

Rumble rumble rumble!!

Thunder roared endlessly within the formation, deafening to the ears.

The once majestic and imposing Golden-winged Great Peng was beaten until his feathers fell out. Covered in wounds and utterly miserable, he fled about the formation in panic.

"You dare hit me? You actually dare hit me?"

"Stop at once! Are you trying to die?"

The Great Peng Bird darkened his face and issued threat after threat.

The life-saving feathers Kong Xuan had given him exploded one after another, making him panic as he jumped about.

But Qingyuan ignored him completely.

While crushing pills in his mouth, he activated his treasures and formation to bombard the Golden-Winged Great Peng.

The longer it went on.

The more the Great Peng Bird sensed Qingyuan's resolute killing intent. In terror, he put on a fierce front and said, "You cannot kill me. I am the Son of Primordial Phoenix. If you dare kill me, you'll form immense Karma with the Phoenix Clan!!!"

"Are you trying to bring disaster to your doorstep?"

"If you dare kill me, the Phoenix Clan's Blood Curse will cling to you for eternity and never dissipate. Once the Phoenix Clan's experts move, they will destroy you and even wipe out your entire clan and faction. Is killing me worth your whole family dying for?"

"Consider Heaven's virtue of cherishing life."

"Retreat at once, lest you become entangled in immense Karma!!!"

Even amid his shrill screams, the Golden-winged Great Peng did not forget to threaten him.

"Son of Primordial Phoenix?"

"You're the Golden-winged Great Peng??"

Qingyuan's tone became somewhat strange, and his eyes changed.

But to the Great Peng Bird, this looked like fear. He immediately said smugly, "That's right, it's yours truly. If you don't fear death, then ahhhhh—"

Before he could finish speaking.

Qingyuan withdrew his many treasures.

Only the sword formation remained.

Then he entered the formation himself and punched the Great Peng Bird again and again.

"I'll show you the Son of Primordial Phoenix!!"

"I'll show you wiping out my entire family! You sure talk big!"

"Y-you actually dare hit me? No one has ever dared to hit me since I was little!"

The Golden-winged Great Peng stared at Qingyuan in disbelief.

His eyes flashed with ferocity.

But Qingyuan's next punch cleared his gaze. "I'm hitting you!"

"Brother, stop hitting me, stop hitting me..."
