The Twin Yin-Yang Rods could strike immortals and gods, and cow the spirits!
They ranked among the Innate Spiritual Treasures!
It could be said that every creature in the Primordial World would have to bow its head before the Twin Yin-Yang Rods!
"Now that's a treasure!"
Xie Fang took the rods without hesitation.
His true form was the Primordial Sky Measuring Ruler. If he got the chance in the future, he could fuse the rods directly into his true form, making them even more powerful!
"Fellow Daoist, wait..."
Just as Xie Fang had taken the Twin Yin-Yang Rods and was about to leave, a shout suddenly rang out!
Xie Fang turned his head. In the sky, an old Daoist dressed in a Yin-Yang Daoist Robe came rushing toward him atop a cloud.
The magical power around him flickered and surged unpredictably. Everywhere he passed, day and night gave way to each other. As his mystical aura flowed, it resonated with the Way of Yin-Yang.
Moreover, his cultivation was formidable. He had already reached the peak of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm and was only a hair's breadth from becoming a Quasi-Saint!
A powerhouse with one foot in the Quasi-Saint realm had now arrived, full of menace.
"Fellow Daoist, what can I do for you?"
Though his opponent was powerful, Xie Fang was not the least bit intimidated. He spoke calmly.
As he spoke, the old Daoist had already reached him, hovering in midair. "Young friend, these Twin Yin-Yang Rods are destined for me. Return them to me, and I'll owe you a favor."
He went straight to demanding the Twin Yin-Yang Rods!
His tone was forceful, leaving no room for refusal. Xie Fang had no doubt that if he refused, the Daoist would attack!
Only...
"Who do you think you are? Why should I want a favor from you?"
Xie Fang sneered and spoke coolly.
He thought he could take an Innate Treasure with just a few words?
As if the world worked that way!
"I'm taking the Yin-Yang Rods. Whether you get my favor depends on whether you know what's good for you!"
Sure enough, just as Xie Fang had expected, the moment he refused, two long chains appeared around the old man, one black and one white, undulating with energy!
"The Yin-Yang Two Energies?"
Xie Fang smiled faintly. "I was wondering who could be so full of himself. So it's Yin-Yang Ancestor."
The moment the Yin-Yang Two Energies appeared, Xie Fang immediately recognized the old man. He was none other than Yin-Yang Ancestor, one of the famous cannon fodder figures in the Primordial World!
Yin-Yang Ancestor had been among the first Innate beings born in Chaos. He had taken Form Manifestation from the Yin-Yang Two Energies within Pangu, and had possessed the strength of a Grand Unity Golden Immortal as soon as he gained sentience!
Unfortunately, his fate had been terrible!
Along with Qiankun Ancestor and Great Immortal Yang Mei, he had been plotted against by his close friend Hongjun and drawn into the Dragon-Han Tribulation. In the end, he had died at Luohu's hands, his body and spirit destroyed!
Still, his strength was not to be underestimated. Xie Fang hadn't expected to run into him here.
"Hmph! Now that you know my name, hand over the Yin-Yang Rods at once!"
As Yin-Yang Ancestor spoke, the Yin-Yang Two Energies surged around him, and his arrogance knew no bounds!
"That shameless old geezer..."
Before Xie Fang could say anything, Mo Wu, beneath him, couldn't help muttering under his breath.
But Yin-Yang Ancestor had one foot in the Quasi-Saint realm. His divine sense was immensely powerful, and he naturally heard Mo Wu's muttering. His eyes immediately widened!
In the next instant, an overwhelming pressure bore down on Mo Wu!
It was so vast that even a trace of it could crush mountains stretching for thousands of miles!
Mo Wu was merely a Mystic Immortal. If that pressure struck him, he would surely die!
"Ah—"
Mo Wu felt as though he were standing at the edge of an abyss. He couldn't even cry out before the pressure was upon him!
Only...
"Hmph!"
One cold snort, and the crushing pressure vanished without a trace!
Xie Fang's expression darkened. As the saying went, if you beat a dog, you had to look at its master first. Mo Wu was his mount. Yin-Yang Ancestor was asking for death!
"With your cultivation at the late stage of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm, you're worthy of being called a great powerhouse. But against me, you'd better hand over the treasure obediently!"
Yin-Yang Ancestor had attacked Mo Wu, but his real aim had been to draw out Xie Fang and test his strength.
Now that the two were on the brink of a clash, Yin-Yang Ancestor was at ease.
"Then let's see if you have what it takes!"
Before Xie Fang's words had even faded, he had already made his move!
He sent Mo Wu into his space, then hurled out thirty-five Sea-Calming Pearls!
A single Sea-Calming Pearl could transform into a world of its own, complete with its own space!
Xie Fang had kept one as a home for Zhen Yuanzi and Mo Wu. Now he hurled the other thirty-five straight at his opponent!
"What? What is that?"
As soon as the Sea-Calming Pearls appeared, ripples spread across the surrounding space for hundreds of millions of miles. Mountains and rivers shattered, while the sun and moon turned upside down!
Thirty-five worlds of empty space came crashing down!
"Those are Sea-Calming Pearls! This brat actually has a treasure that powerful!"
Yin-Yang Ancestor was startled. He hadn't expected Xie Fang to possess such a powerful treasure.
But the greed in his eyes only grew stronger as the Sea-Calming Pearls appeared!
"You're only at the late stage of the Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm. I'll suppress you!"
With that thought, Yin-Yang Ancestor drove the Yin-Yang Two Energies straight at Xie Fang in a surging sweep!
The power of the Yin-Yang Two Energies was unfathomable, and they were incredibly resilient. Space itself seemed to warp and shatter wherever they passed.
Xie Fang remained utterly calm. Not only did he leave the thirty-five Sea-Calming Pearls in play, he sent them hurtling down at Yin-Yang Ancestor even faster!
"Hmph. With my cultivation, I can hold off those Sea-Calming Pearls for a while. But my Yin-Yang Two Energies can corrode the soul. This brat..."
Yin-Yang Ancestor's sneer had not yet faded when his eyes suddenly widened!
With a wave of Xie Fang's hand, a White Lotus Platform appeared!
"The Pure World White Lotus!"
Yin-Yang Ancestor blurted out the name, his eyes nearly popping from their sockets!
To possess even one Innate Treasure was already an incredible stroke of fortune. This brat had not only possessed the Sea-Calming Pearls, but the most mysterious Pure World White Lotus as well!
Add the Yin-Yang Rods he had just taken, and the brat had three Innate Treasures on him!
"Brat, I'll come find you another day. The Yin-Yang Rods belong to me!"
Yin-Yang Ancestor made a snap decision and shouted, "I have important business today. We'll fight another time!"
As soon as his voice fell, the Yin-Yang Two Energies spun around and rushed back!
"Hmph. You think you can leave?"
A fierce glint flashed in Xie Fang's eyes. A gigantic golden ruler-shadow plunged down and slashed viciously at the retreating Yin-Yang Two Energies!
Ssh—
With a muffled thud, Xie Fang cut away a third of the Yin-Yang Two Energies!
Yin-Yang Ancestor had no time to grieve. He snatched back most of the Yin-Yang Two Energies, stepped on his cloud, and vanished in the blink of an eye.
His opponent had the Pure World White Lotus and was already invincible. Staying to fight would be pointless. He'd be better off finding another way.
But his attempt had cost him more than it gained him. Not only had he failed to take the Yin-Yang Rods, he'd lost a portion of his own Yin-Yang Two Energies...
