It was like a bright star, coming from beyond the heavens, with the power of thunder and rain, ready to completely sever what lay beneath it!
That's right, Xu Long wanted to dismember the two-headed Human Python!
The Poison Curse took effect strangely on Pavilion Master Xu, with two figures sprouting from his waist and abdomen. One attacked while the other defended, one advanced while the other retreated, as if two people were simultaneously dealing with Xu Long.
This put Xu Long at a significant disadvantage in the battle. Seeing that the Human Python was somewhat distracted, he simply condensed his sword light and slashed directly at its waist and abdomen.
As the giant sword plummeted to the ground, the two-headed Human Python instantly regained its alertness, a fierce hatred flashing in its emerald eyes.
It knew Xu Long's killing intent was clear, but it was not someone to be trifled with. However, the sword light came and went so swiftly that it was caught off guard and injured several times.
It could have fought Xu Long to the death, but now it had to consider retreating. It had gone to great lengths to come to Phoenix City for the greater good, and now that things were not going to go any further, it had to start thinking about a way out.
The four emerald eyes swept over Xu Long's body, and the two snake tongues hissed and flickered for a moment, firmly remembering his appearance and aura. The Human Python looked at Xu Long with an unfriendly expression.
Just then, a falling star was about to strike his body. The sharpness emanating from the sword was extremely fierce, and its sharp aura moved even the Human Python.
One of its heads was still watching Xu Long, while the other head suddenly withdrew its gaze, twisted strangely in the air, and locked onto the incoming attack.
A flash of anger crossed her emerald eyes, and her arched body suddenly sprang up like a spring, the immense force manifesting within the dock walls, even creating a sonic boom in the air.
Clang!
When the straight serpentine body collided with the sharp edge, a loud bang was heard. The incoming sword light was momentarily blocked in mid-air, and after twisting once in place, the Power of Oblivion burst forth again.
A burst of sword energy suddenly shot out from the sword, its sharp edge sweeping across the Human Python's body, aiming straight for the forked part of its waist and abdomen.
At this moment, the Human Python, having been struck, was slightly weakened. The blue scales on its body had shattered, leaving a deep wound on its surface.
The Human Python immediately coiled its massive body, burying the gruesome wound beneath countless scales, its forked tongue hissing.
The female cultivator stared intently at Xu Long. As Pavilion Master Xu blocked the sword light, its belly surged, and as its lips opened and closed, it exhaled a stream of azure mist.
Xu Long felt the scene before him rapidly blur. Without the slightest hesitation, the sword light in the air, carrying the Power of Oblivion, slashed down on the spot.
With a deafening roar, dust rose amidst blazing flames, blue mist hissed within the flames, and thick plumes of steam rose before the formation.
Within the treasure vault of the fortress, water and fire clashed, each eroding the other like Immortal Realm. Countless plumes of smoke and white steam and blue mist intertwined, and the fierce flames gradually died down.
A streak of light flashed through the thick smoke. Xu Long's eyes flashed as he gazed at the blurry scene within the smoke, a variety of thoughts racing through his mind.
He then extended his will to survey the surroundings and discovered several powerful auras rapidly approaching the treasure vault within the fortress.
He was secretly anxious, and his whole body transformed into a streak of light, rushing towards the wall where the Human Python had been coiled.
Just after the sword light fell again, the Human Python had already fled the scene. As Higher Mist Beast, it naturally knew how to make choices.
First, Xu Long was indeed difficult to deal with, his sword light was incredibly powerful; second, it also sensed several approaching auras.
Entering Phoenix City was not easy to begin with. The horde of Mist Beast outside the city was still desperately holding back the Earth Immortal. Inside the city, she was responsible for maintaining the overall situation, so she chose to retreat after Xu Long fought her hard.
Behind the dock wall, there was a deep trench. The solid ground of the dock wall looked as if it had been plowed out by an iron rake, making the flat ground look rather menacing.
Looking back along the ditch, a figure in green happened to turn around and make eye contact with Xu Long for a moment.
Its emerald eyes were filled with indifference. Sensing the approaching aura of a powerful figure, and fearing it would be trapped in the treasure vault of the dock, it glared fiercely at Xu Long before its azure body sank into the emerald water.
This bay of clear water connects all parts of Phoenix City; Higher Mist Beast vanish instantly upon entering the water.
At this moment, Xu Long disregarded the vanished Higher Mist Beast. He condensed a barrier, activated the Heaven-Burning Sacred Fire within his body, and unleashed the Power of Oblivion throughout his body.
Scalding energy emanated from the curtain wall, and Xu Long moved with ease within the murky blue waters of the dock.
His gaze instantly locked onto the formation within, the place where the Human Python had originally occupied. For some reason, the formation within the dock walls had been activated.
After the Human Python disappeared, Xu Long's heart stirred slightly. Prepared to deal with any impending crisis, he plunged headlong into the formation.
The treasure trove of the Rogue Cultivators Association was now laid bare for him alone!
Upon entering the formation, Xu Long was greeted by a dazzling display of precious light. Before him lay rows of shimmering, precious hills, confirming the existence of countless Spirit Stone stones in the Rogue Cultivators Association's treasury.
The small hills were all built of Spirit Stone, which were mined from various places in the Land of Exile. Through the manpower and resources of the Rogue Cultivators Association, the Spirit Stone were finally gathered here in Phoenix City.
This is the accumulation of countless years by the Rogue Cultivators Association. The cultivators in the Red Land would never have imagined that there was such a treasure trove in the North Division Dao Field. The Spirit Stone they had exchanged their lives for were piled up like mountains here.
No wonder the cultivators who entered the fortress first laughed so Wuji; this was probably a scene they had never seen before. Even Xu Long was somewhat shocked when he saw so many Spirit Stone.
Within this formation, there are more than ten continuous mountain ranges of Spirit Stone, presumably corresponding to the external spiritual vein supply of Phoenix City of the Rogue Cultivators Association.
The small hills of Spirit Stone were piled up like a series of mountains, obscuring the view behind them. The surrounding mountains also emitted a shimmering, precious light, blocking out anything behind the small hills of Spirit Stone.
Xu Long extended his will to scan the Spirit Stone closely, examining their quality, but the result left him somewhat disappointed.
Although these Spirit Stone were numerous, their quality was worrisome, just like the Spirit Stone previously intercepted from the spirit vein guarded by Old Pavilion Master Huang, which were of very low quality.
As expected, how could there be high-quality spiritual vein resources in the Land of Exile? Perhaps these Spirit Stone are already considered a decent resource.
Xu Long sighed softly, turned around and headed deeper into the Spirit Stone Hill. With the intention of finding out more, he still wanted to explore it carefully.
He thought to himself, "Branch Master Chen is a powerful Earth Immortal, would he also use these inferior Spirit Stone stones?" He didn't believe that Earth Immortal wouldn't have some specially supplied high-quality Spirit Stone.
After passing through several small hills of Spirit Stone, Xu Long arrived inside the shimmering treasure light. As soon as he entered, he felt the spiritual energy around him was exceptionally rich.
This was a spiritual energy that low-quality Spirit Stone never possessed. Xu Long glanced at the small mountains of Spirit Stone, then probed the depths of the precious light with his will.
When his will came into contact with the source of the rich spiritual energy, Xu Long's eyes lit up, revealing a look of surprise, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.
It turned out that behind those small hills of Spirit Stone, deep within the shimmering treasure light, lay another large pile of small hills of Spirit Stone. These were all high-quality Spirit Stone resources, and a rich spiritual energy emanated from them.
With his gaze fixed on the pile of high-quality Spirit Stone, Xu Long instantly appeared beside them. Sure enough, this Spirit Stone trove contained high-quality Spirit Stone resources specially supplied by Earth Immortal!
Before he could even get his hands on it for a closer look, his will detected something cloud-like or wispy above his head. A question flashed through Xu Long's mind: What is this?
This mass was roughly the size of half a basketball court. It appeared invisible when scattered in the air, but the Yun Xu within it were actually tangible.
The Yun Xu continued to tumble, as light and ethereal as a cloud in the sky, yet within it shimmered with a precious light, and at first glance, it seemed to conceal something.
Xu Long gazed at the light and ethereal Yun Xu, his eyes flickering with doubt. After a moment's thought, he extended his will directly into the Yun Xu.
Once one's will enters it, one discovers that it is indeed an invisible thing, as light as brocade, able to automatically float in the air without the need for any energy.
When one probes within it with their will, they feel incredibly light. Threads of fluffy material dance erratically within the precious light, and upon closer inspection, they are all immersed in shimmering radiance.
As his will probed into the depths of the shimmering light, he felt as if he had entered a vortex. Before he could see clearly, the shimmering light shone brightly, and one high-quality Spirit Stone after another appeared within his will.
This Yun Xu substance actually contains high-quality Spirit Stone resources!
Xu Long didn't know what this thing was. After his will was caught in the vortex, he subconsciously raised his own Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon, fearing that the thing would devour his will.
After the Milky Way swept out, a strong Power of Laws appeared in the sky. The shimmering Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon and the precious light in the Yun Xu reflected each other, like two different Celestial Phenomenon radiating brilliant light in one place.
Countless starlight and precious light were reflected in Xu Long. The Yun Xu object was particularly dazzling under the Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon. The Spot light and shimmering precious light reflected each other, like a Nebula in the Milky Way.
As the Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon appeared beneath the Yun Xu, the Power of Laws surged spontaneously, generating a powerful suction force that instantly drew in the dense spiritual energy. Xu Long was startled; what was happening?
As the spiritual energy was absorbed into the Celestial Phenomenon, the cloud-like objects were also drawn into Celestial Phenomenon. Xu Long's will sensed the Yun Xu moving rapidly toward the Celestial Phenomenon, while his own Celestial Phenomenon was uncontrollably and forcefully sucking up the Yun Xu.
The Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon is actually drawing Yun Xu into it!
Xu Long was immediately shocked. His Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon had only shown unusual activity within the Eight Trigrams Formation Diagram barrier.
However, the Eight Trigrams Formation Diagram contains all things and is itself a small world. The Celestial Phenomenon connect with the Milky Way contained within it, thus enabling it to seize the energy of the City Heart.
This is equivalent to exploiting the City Heart through the Eight Trigrams Formation Diagram, and all the energy extracted will be transferred into Xu Long's body.
He also used the energy drawn by the Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon to break through to the Middle Mahayana Stage in one fell swoop.
What exactly is this cloud-like object? And why is it being drawn and Fusion with the Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon?
Before Xu Long had an answer, he saw the Power of Laws within the Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon surge forth, completely engulfing a Yun Xu within the Milky Way.
And now, above his head, the Celestial Phenomenon had expanded dramatically, and the Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon, which had previously seemed like an illusion, was now showing signs of solidification.
Looking towards the Celestial Phenomenon, one can see a Yun Xu appearing in the middle of the Milky Way.
The Spot starlight, which had been there before, now appeared faintly in the Yun Xu, like a real Milky Way beyond the heavens, as if it had come to life and was no longer an ordinary illusion.
Xu Long watched this scene in shock; his Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon was rare even in the myriad realms.
For countless years, no cultivator had been able to condense such a Celestial Phenomenon, and he had thought that his own Celestial Phenomenon was also an illusion.
But today, after this mysterious Yun Xu condensed in the treasure vault, the Celestial Phenomenon showed signs of solidification, or at least they looked more and more real.
What exactly is this Yun Xu?
A hint of doubt flashed through Xu Long's mind. After a moment of thought, he began to activate his Celestial Phenomenon. He remembered that his will was still trapped in that vortex.
As the Celestial Phenomenon were slowly activated, Nebula in the Milky Way began to slowly rotate, and a large Nebula formed within the Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon.
Countless starlight flickered within the vortex, and as the vortex spun faster and faster, the Nebula eventually enveloped the entire Milky Way.
As the Nebula rotated, the faint radiance and starlight were completely submerged, and a cool aura emanated from it. If a bright moon were to appear within it at this moment, then Xu Long's Celestial Phenomenon would truly be the Milky Way!
After the starlight and precious light disappeared, a burst of spiritual energy gushed out from the vortex, and Xu Long then felt a pure spiritual energy enter his body through the Celestial Phenomenon.
The evening clouds have dispersed, revealing a clear, cool sky; the Milky Way is silent as the jade disc of the Milky Way turns!
This is the energy absorbed through Celestial Phenomenon once again after the Eight Trigrams Formation Diagram was created.
Xu Long felt overjoyed as he sensed the pure spiritual energy. He detected a mysterious energy within the Celestial Phenomenon, which faintly revealed the trajectory of the Reincarnation Temple of Heavenly Dao and the manifestation of the rules of the world.
Despite being in Land of Exile, its own Milky Way Celestial Phenomenon were already clumsily imitating what existed only beyond the heavens.
After receiving the pure energy, he moved his will and discovered that the high-quality Spirit Stone within were gone. Xu Long pondered for a moment: they had probably been absorbed by him.
This Yun Xu object appeared in the treasure vault of the Rogue Cultivators Association, and among the low-quality Spirit Stone scattered around, there was also a pile of high-quality Spirit Stone. This must have been generated by the Yun Xu.
These Yun Xu are formless and intangible, pure and immaculate, truly a treasure born of heaven and earth. Moreover, based on the pure spiritual energy just now, we know that this Yun Xu also possesses the wondrous ability to absorb energy.
