The Heart of the Treasure Artifact

First, I want to apologize to everyone. I've only slept three hours since the day before yesterday until now in July. I stayed up all night the night before last to finish yesterday's content, and I'm really exhausted now, so there will only be two updates today.

However, I've made up my mind in July to write 10,000 words this month to ensure I get full attendance, so I need to make up for today's missed words tomorrow. That's a total of 8,000 words, so I'll update 18,000 words all at once tomorrow.

Chen Xiao's second incarnation, the Staff Daoist, was a peerless villain in his previous life who turned the entire Glazed Heaven Capital into chaos.

Once the Staff Daoist took human form, he possessed the body of Low-Grade Treasure Tool and the cultivation Body Integration Realm. The Glazed Heaven Palace lost many immortals trying to capture him. Back then, this Staff Daoist was known throughout the Glazed Heaven as invincible in close combat.

Now, Chen Xiao, using the essence of the Golden Immortal Kingdom and combining it with Feng Xuan and many other treasures, has upgraded that staff to the level of a low-grade Spirit Artifact, making it even more powerful than Chen Xiao's previous life's Staff Daoist body.

Now, Chen Xiao has refined this staff into Second Primordial Spirit, External Incarnation, and immediately gained unparalleled power in close combat, even stronger than the former Staff Daoist.

It's important to understand that no one knows how powerful Law Treasure's body truly is. Even martial immortals who specialize in cultivating their physical bodies cannot match the strength of a Law Treasure Law Treasure. Moreover, since the body is Law Treasure artifact, it can be controlled using the spiritual techniques that wield it—this is what makes it truly terrifying.

Using Law Treasure as a physical body, or Law Treasure transforming into human form, is something unheard of and unseen in the Immortal World.

That High Immortal, although his cultivation was powerful, his High Immortal body was not as strong as Chen Xiao's Law Treasure body. Moreover, his cultivation was suppressed by the Thousand Mechanisms Convergence Formation set up by the seven High Immortal. Yet he foolishly came to fight Chen Xiao in close combat, which was simply asking for trouble.

Chen Xiao didn't hold back, and with a swift movement, he seized the High Immortal and tore off his arm.

In his previous life, Chen Xiao was a disciple of the Immortal Martial Sect, and he was very familiar with all kinds of martial arts and combat techniques of the Immortal Martial Sect. Now, with the help of his Law Treasure body, he is even more powerful.

"This is bad! This person is not only physically powerful, but also proficient in various martial arts techniques. Everyone, quickly join forces and deliver a powerful blow to shatter his body!"

Upon seeing this, another High Immortal from the Nangong Clan immediately reacted. With a wave of his hand, a beam of azure immortal light swept up a celestial sword flashing with lightning, which flew towards Chen Xiao's body.

Currently, his cultivation is suppressed by the formation, so he has no choice but to use his own innate immortal light to control the sword and increase its attack power.

Upon seeing the High Immortal's attack, the other five Heavenly Immortal from the Nangong Clan also reacted, using their immortal light to control their swords and attacking Chen Xiao as well.

Seeing the six powerful sword lights flying towards him, Chen Xiao let out a long laugh. Then, without dodging or avoiding, he directly swung the High Immortal body he had captured in his hand and fiercely swept it towards the six immortal swords.

"Not good!"

When the ancestors of the Nangong Clan saw that Chen Xiao had used his own companions as a shield, they were all shocked and furious. However, subconsciously, they all reduced the power of the immortal sword.

Puff puff puff!

Even so, Chen Xiao remained relentless, and the High Immortal body in his hand swept directly onto the six immortal swords coming from different directions.

"Ah!!!"

The High Immortal let out a shrill scream as his body was instantly sliced into several pieces by the immortal swords. A severely weakened Immortal Infant flew out from the mutilated body and was about to escape.

But Chen Xiao wouldn't let him escape like that. He moved and chased after him, capturing the Immortal Infant and crushing it with a casual crushing motion.

Thump thump thump thump!

But at that moment, a booming sound like a war drum suddenly rang out from within Chen Xiao's body, as the heart of his Second Primordial Spirit began to beat violently.

Chen Xiao's face turned a deep reddish-brown.

"What happened?"

At this moment, Chen Xiao felt an immense power erupt from that heart. This power was so great that Chen Xiao could not control it. If it weren't for the fact that this Law Treasure was so powerful, it would probably have been burst apart by this sudden burst of power long ago.

Thump thump thump thump!

Gradually, his heartbeat became more and more violent, and Chen Xiao's skin turned a bright red, like a boiled shrimp.

"Perfect opportunity, kill!"

Without any hesitation, the remaining High Immortal from the Nangong Clan unleashed another beam of sword light.

"Court death!"

Chen Xiao's physical strength is growing stronger and stronger, and he's been looking for a way to unleash it. Now that he sees the sword light coming, Chen Xiao immediately rushes forward and throws a punch.

Puff!

The sword light emitted by this fourth-grade immortal sword was shattered by Chen Xiao's fist, without causing him the slightest harm.

Thump thump thump!

"Ah!"

But the next moment, Chen Xiao let out a painful scream, feeling as if his heart inside his Second Primordial Spirit was about to explode.

Boom!

At that very moment, this wildly beating heart finally burst!

Puff!

As soon as Chen Xiao opened his mouth, a mouthful of pale golden blood spurted out.

"What? What is it? Isn't it human? Its blood is pale gold with a metallic sheen?"

The surviving High Immortal from the Nangong Clan was suddenly stunned.

Buzz!

But the next moment, a tremendous suction force erupted from Chen Xiao's body, and the six immortal swords that were still flying in mid-air were instantly pulled by this suction force and directly into Chen Xiao's body.

Puff puff puff puff!

The next moment, the six immortals suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, as their natal magic Law Treasure were destroyed and they themselves suffered severe injuries.

"The blood of High Immortal ignites the bloodline!"

"Open the Treasure Artifact Heart!"

The next moment, two golden beams of light shot out from Chen Xiao's eyes, and his shattered heart, after absorbing the six immortal swords, began to reassemble itself.

A moment later, this originally unremarkable heart transformed into a yin-yang sphere, one yin and one yang, like a millstone, grinding, devouring, and absorbing all the fragments of the six immortal swords to strengthen itself.

"He... he devoured my immortal sword! Who exactly is he?"

A Heavenly Immortal from the Nangong Clan let out a terrified scream.

"I am Shen Xiao!"

Chen Xiao laughed heartily. After devouring the six immortal swords, the body of his Second Primordial Spirit evolved once again, becoming a mid-grade immortal artifact. His cultivation level also reached the Integrated Body Middle Stage!

Chen Xiao finally understood the origin of his Second Primordial Spirit and his External Incarnation.

This magical Law Treasure was crafted in ancient times by an extremely powerful artifact refiner, known as the Treasure Artifact Daoist.

This Law Treasure is actually used to nurture the most core treasure within it, the Treasure Artifact Heart.

However, this Treasure Artifact Heart was originally sealed and did not cause any abnormalities. High Immortal the blood, High Immortal Primordial Spirit, and life essence of High Immortal could break the seal on the Seven Treasures Heart.

Just now, Chen Xiao tore High Immortal with his bare hands. The Treasure Artifact Heart had unknowingly devoured everything of a complete High Immortal. The seal outside the Treasure Artifact Heart was instantly broken, and the heart, which had been dormant for billions of years, finally began to beat slowly.

Once the Treasure Artifact Heart is unleashed, it gains the ability to devour Law Treasure. The six immortal artifacts from before were directly ground up and devoured by the Treasure Artifact Heart. The vast majority of their power was absorbed by the Treasure Artifact Heart, with only a small portion flowing out to enhance the level of the Second Primordial Spirit.

However, the reason why the Treasure Artifact Heart can now devour immortal artifacts is because it shattered and devoured the immortal artifacts by relying on the immense power generated when the seal was broken.

In other words, under normal circumstances, Chen Xiao would not be able to devour any magic Law Treasure of the Immortal level. Currently, the strongest Law Treasure he can devour is a mid-grade Spirit Artifact, which is on par with his own body level.

But that's enough.

Chen Xiao's main body cultivates the Thunder Virtue Universal Transformation Heavenly Art, making it extremely difficult to break through to a higher realm. However, with the addition of Law Treasure clone, which can devour Law Treasure to advance, advancement becomes much easier.

Moreover, Chen Xiao's current State of Mind cultivation level is at the early stage of the Heavenly Immortal realm. As long as his Second Primordial Spirit has enough Law Treasure to devour, it will directly reach the Heavenly Immortal realm.

Chen Xiao's Second Primordial Spirit was able to tear apart True Immortal with his bare hands when he was in the Body Integration Realm. If he were to reach the Heavenly Immortal realm, one can imagine how terrifying he would be.

Boom!

The immortal swords of that High Immortal and the five Heavenly Immortal immortals were destroyed, their minds were severely damaged, and with the suppression of the Thousand Mechanisms Convergence Formation outside, their strength was reduced to less than half a percent.

At this point, Chen Xiao stopped wasting words with them; kicking someone when they're down was his favorite pastime.

Moreover, Chen Xiao has no intention of letting the Nangong Clan go. This family, which destroyed all his relatives in his previous life, has become a demon in Chen Xiao's heart. He will not have peace until the Nangong Clan is eliminated.

It can be said that only by completely killing the members of the Nangong Clan can Chen Xiao appease the resentment he has accumulated over the past fifty years in his previous life.

Moreover, Chen Xiao's beloved younger sister, Chen Yao, also died as a result of the Nangong Clan's conspiracy.

Slaughtering the entire Nangong Clan was Chen Xiao's second expectation, and his first wish was to protect his relatives and family.

Perhaps Chen Xiao's thinking is somewhat extreme, after all, many members of the Nangong Clan are innocent. But are the Chen Clan family members all guilty? Chen Xiao's younger sister, only a few years old, was killed by the Nangong Clan; wasn't she innocent too?

In this life, if it weren't for Chen Xiao's efforts, the Chen Clan would likely have been massacred by the Nangong Clan two years later, leaving no one alive. Since the Nangong Clan intended to exterminate the Chen Clan, why should Chen Xiao bestow upon them any so-called humanity?

Boom!

At this moment, the energy generated when the Treasure Artifact Heart within Chen Xiao broke through the seal was too immense. Chen Xiao had to release it all, otherwise the Primordial Spirit within this body would be obliterated and transformed back into a cold, lifeless magical Law Treasure.

The Law Treasure artifact instantly transformed into a black phantom, slamming a punch into the body of the remaining High Immortal.

A ferocious fist pierced his chest and exited through his back, its violent force directly destroying all life within his immortal body.

"Die!"

Chen Xiao exerted all his strength, and the High Immortal's body, along with his Immortal Infant, was directly shattered into pieces.
