Gold-Magnetic Formation (No More Today)
The humanoid skeleton had several clearly visible cracks on its surface, indicating that it had suffered severe injuries before death. Its left skeletal hand wore a red ring with a Demon Beast pattern engraved on its surface, while its right skeletal hand wore a golden Storage Bracelet.
"Spirit Beast Bracelet! Storage Bracelet!"
Shen Long's face lit up with joy.
The Spirit Beast Bracelet has a larger space than the Spirit Beast Bag, with multiple independent spaces where he can store Spirit Beast Spirit Insect, Spirit Bird. With the Spirit Beast Bracelet, he no longer needs to carry multiple Spirit Beast Bag with him.
Storage Bracelet are even more out of the question; ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator don't even have Storage Bracelet.
Shen Long has killed more than ten Nascent Soul Cultivator, most of whom used Storage Bag, demonstrating the preciousness of Storage Bracelet.
He opened his mouth and spat out a stream of Cyan Flame, which landed on the humanoid skeleton. The skeleton turned to ashes, leaving only the Golden Dharma Robe, Storage Bracelet, and Spirit Beast Bracelet.
He checked it repeatedly to make sure it was correct before picking up the Storage Bracelet. With a flick of his wrist, a golden light flashed, and a large pile of things appeared on the ground. A faintly visible Golden Flying Needle caught Shen Long's attention.
"Flying Needle Spirit Treasure!"
Shen Long was overjoyed.
Flying needles are a powerful tool for those seeking to harm others, and these Spirit Treasure flying needle treasures are highly sought after by cultivators. However, the materials used to refine these Spirit Treasure are quite rare, making Spirit Treasure very precious.
Besides the flying needle Spirit Treasure, there are three Law Treasure, more than one million Spirit Stone, more than twenty fourth-order Demon Core, thirty-two Millennial Spirit Herb, a batch of fourth-order refining materials, and even a fourth-order Wood Demon Crystal Core.
Shen Long's gaze swept across the area and landed on a golden crystal ball; this was the Shadow-Returning Crystal.
He picked up the Shadow-Returning Crystal, infused it with Law Power, and the Shadow-Returning Crystal immediately emitted a dazzling golden light. A beam of golden light flew out and transformed into the phantom of a pale-faced old man in golden robes.
"I am True Lord True Monarch Ganyang, hailing from the Ganyang Sect of the Western Desert Cultivation World. I entered the Immortal Burial Mound in search of the Golden Soul Fruit, but unexpectedly encountered two Nascent Soul Realm ghost cultivators. I was ambushed by them, and I fought my way out, but was severely injured, my soul badly damaged. I am hiding here to heal, setting up a Gold-Magnetic Formation. Knowing my days are numbered, I hope that someone destined to receive my inheritance will be able to make a trip to the Western Desert Cultivation World, to the Ganyang Sect, and tell Junior Sister Xu that I owe her, and I will repay her in the next life."
The old man in the golden robe spoke weakly, and after he finished speaking, the illusory figure dissipated.
"True Monarch Ganyang, Ganyang Sect! Gold-Magnetic Formation!"
Shen Long looked on with a look of reminiscence. When he was chatting with Zhou Yuliang, he asked about the major forces in the Western Desert Cultivation World. He had never heard of the Ganyang Sect, so he guessed it was a small sect.
Shen Long picked up the Formation Disk, his expression excited. No wonder the Barbarian Race cultivators couldn't break into this place; it turned out that Gold-Magnetic Formation had been set up here. With this Formation in hand, Shen Long could kill Fourth-Rank Spirit Beast much more easily.
He picked up the Golden Flying Needle, and the words "Qian Jin" (meaning "Ganjin") could be seen in small characters.
He gathered the items from the ground and began refining the Spirit Beast Bracelet and the Ganjin Needle.
After refining the Spirit Beast Bracelet and the Ganjin Needle, he released the Spirit Insect, Spirit Beast, Spirit Bird, put them into the Spirit Beast Bracelet, and walked out.
Shen Long left the Thousand Herb Hall and released the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada to observe. He found the eighteen Formation Flag Formation Flag, each of which was Law Treasure, made from Gold-Magnetic Spirit Wood that was over a thousand years old.
He had just reached the foot of the mountain when the Hundred-Eyed Golden Cicada let out a piercing cry, indicating that it had made a discovery.
Shen Long frowned, his face filled with murderous intent. "Barbarian Race cultivators, Black Crow Tribe! It'll be perfect to test the power of the Ganjin Needle on you."
More than ninety miles away, in an open field, a burly Black-Robed Man and a plump Purple-Skirted Woman stood on the ground. Not far away was a huge pit emitting black smoke, and inside the pit lay two charred centipedes, their breaths completely gone.
"There are quite a few fourth-tier demonic insects here; I almost got ambushed by them."
The Purple-Skirted Woman frowned as she spoke.
"Fortunately, it's been resolved. Let's go!"
The Black-Robed Man picked up the two centipede corpses.
Just then, a thunderclap rang out, and a thick Silver Thunder Pillar ripped through the sky, striking the Black-Robed Man and the Purple-Skirted Woman.
Just as the Black-Robed Man was about to dodge, a powerful force of gravity arose from the ground, and his body was firmly attached to the spot like a magnet, unable to move.
With nowhere to hide, his body emitted a burst of black light, and a huge Black Crow Phantom appeared. With a gentle flap of its wings, the Black Crow Phantom unleashed a Black Tornado that blocked the falling Silver Thunder Pillar.
A yellow sand dragon swooped down with great speed, followed closely by a golden-red spear.
Just as the Black-Robed Man was about to cast a spell to defend himself, a sharp, piercing screech rang in his ears. He felt an unbearable pain deep within his consciousness, and his head spun.
The Black Crow Phantom spewed out a Black Sound Wave, heading straight for the Yellow Sand Flood Dragon.
The Yellow Sand Flood Dragon collided with the Black Sound Wave, its body instantly exploding into a large amount of yellow sand that shimmered with light. These Yellow Gravel suddenly solidified, transforming into Yellow Sand Arrow that shot straight toward the Black-Robed Man.
The Black-Robed Man's body emitted a burst of black light, and a thick Black Light Screen appeared. He opened his mouth and spat out a Black Giant Axe Black Giant Axe, which he then swung at the attacker.
The Black Giant Axe shattered a large number of Yellow Sand Arrow. Some of the Yellow Sand Arrow struck the Black Light Screen, producing a muffled popping sound like beans being fried, but the Black Light Screen remained unharmed.
A Yellow Sand Arrow struck the Black Light Screen, instantly disintegrating to reveal a shimmering golden needle.
"Spirit Treasure!"
The Black-Robed Man exclaimed, his eyes filled with fear.
The Golden Flying Needle struck the Black Light Screen, Black Light Screen shattered instantly, like paper.
The Black-Robed Man tried to dodge, but his body felt as heavy as a trillion pounds, and he couldn't move. A Golden Flying Needle pierced his left eye and flew out from behind his head. A nascent Nascent Soul that looked exactly like the Black-Robed Man left his body and flew out, enveloped by a blue glow, and was drawn into a Cyan Jade Bottle.
On the other side, the Gold-Red Long Spear struck the Purple-Skirted Woman's Body-Protecting Spirit Light, Body-Protecting Spirit Light was then engulfed by a Golden Flame. A beam of red light shot over and struck the Purple-Skirted Woman's Body-Protecting Spirit Light.
Her Body-Protecting Spirit Light shattered like a bubble, Gold-Red Long Spear pierced her body, her Nascent Soul soul left her body, and her body shone with a brilliant purple light, instantly covering more than ten miles away.
A sharp, piercing screech rang out, and the Nascent Soul stopped. A Silver-Glowing Talisman descended from the sky and affixed to the Nascent Soul's body.
Shen Long rushed over, grabbed the Nascent Soul, and began searching its soul.
"Go on a crucial mission with Wu Yan of the Golden Crow Tribe! You will perish and your soul will vanish."
Shen Long's face showed a thoughtful expression.
These two were only at the Nascent Soul Early Stage realm. They entered the Immortal Burial Mound to pick two Seven-Star Spirit Nourishing Flower that were over a thousand years old. These were the main ingredients for refining the Seven-Star Spirit Nourishing Pill, which could strengthen the Divine Sense of Nascent Soul Cultivator.
They successfully harvested the Seven-Star Spirit Nourishing Flower, but on their way out they were attacked by a fourth-tier demonic insect. Shen Long discovered them, and they perished.
Shen Long was not concerned with their purpose in entering the Immortal Burial Mound, but rather with the fact that the Black Crow Tribe had once sent Nascent Soul Cultivator to accompany Wu Yan of the Golden Crow Tribe on an important mission, and that the Black Crow Tribe's Nascent Soul Cultivator had died.
Wu Yan is one of the top experts in the Golden Crow Tribe. For him to personally lead the team, the mission must be extraordinary. Considering that Wu Xiao suddenly possessed Heaven-Piercing Spirit Treasure, Shen Long guessed that the mission Wu Yan and the others were going to undertake might be to find the Heaven-Piercing Spirit Treasure.
He searched the body for valuables and took the body with him.
With a single gesture, he Ganjin Needle and Yellow Gravel flying into his sleeve, retrieving the Iron Tail Scorpion and the Spirit Ant into his Spirit Beast Bracelet, and then left the place along the same route.
About two weeks later, Shen Long returned to the Spirit Control Sect.
