Seizing Treasures in the Ruins, the Might of a Mid-Grade Divine Ability
Dongfang Yueming's expression was indifferent. "Die."
Formless Sword Qi swept past once more. "Swoosh!" The head of the Heavenly Fire Sect disciple exploded like a watermelon, and his corpse fell limply beside the Fire Qilin-pulled cart.
The entire process took less than two breaths. Three figures who were considered prominent in the Central Continent were crushed to death like ants.
Ignoring the awe-inspiring gazes of those around him, who knelt and hid in fear, Dongfang Yueming casually summoned the storage rings from the three corpses into his hand.
A quick scan with his Divine Sense revealed a hint of unexpected joy in Dongfang Yueming's eyes.
"As expected of a major sect in the Central Continent, even these ants have some good stuff on them."
Inside the storage ring of the true disciple of the Heavenly Fire Sect lay a low-grade fire-type Divine Ability— "Heaven-Burning Demonic Flame"—as well as several mid-grade and high-grade fire-type techniques!
"My lord, the Pure Yang Ruins are about to open," Ji Meiniang said softly, looking at the sealing formation in the canyon ahead that was beginning to fluctuate violently.
"Hmm." Dongfang Yueming put away his storage ring and, with the three women, strode into the soon-to-be-opened ruins of the Primordial Pure Yang Sect under the awe-inspiring gazes of tens of thousands of cultivators from the Central Continent.
Upon entering the ruins, one is immediately enveloped by a pure, ancient, and boundless aura of yang energy.
Instead of rushing to search for treasure, Dongfang Yueming found a secluded cave in the ruins outside the site and set up an isolation formation.
"Let's process what we just got."
He sat down cross-legged and immediately brought up the system panel.
[Learn the "Low-Grade Fire-Type Divine Ability: Heaven-Burning Demonic Flame"!]
[System, Point Allocation Perfection!]
"Boom!" In just a few breaths, this Divine Ability, which required a hundred years of arduous cultivation by the true disciples of the Heavenly Fire Sect, transformed into a brilliant seed of Divine Ability within Dongfang Yueming's dantian and was developed to 100% Perfection!
Immediately afterwards, Dongfang Yueming clashed the previously Perfection "Nine Dragons Burn the Heavens" technique with the newly acquired "Heaven-Burning Demonic Flame" technique in his dantian!
"Merge!"
"Boom--!"
The raging fire-elemental true energy surged wildly within his dantian! Moments later, the two low-grade fire-elemental Divine Ability seeds were completely melted together.
[Successfully fused! Obtained: Mid-grade Fire-type Killing Divine Ability - "Fentian Nine Realms Great Demonic Flame" (0/1,000,000, not yet Entry)!]
"System, max it out!"
[Consumed 1 million Source Point, breakthrough successful! "Fentian Nine Realms Great Demonic Flame" derivation reached: 100% Perfection!]
With the Perfection of the mid-grade fire-type Divine Ability, the Great Sun Flame on the top -Supreme-Grade Pure Yang Spirit Root within Dongfang Yueming's body completely transformed into a dark purple demonic flame capable of burning everything in the world!
Within the ruins of the Primordial Pure Yang Sect, crimson-gold lava rivers crisscross, and the air is filled with terrifyingly high temperatures that could cause ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators to spontaneously combust.
Dongfang Yueming walked at the forefront with his hands behind his back, the dark purple "Fentian Nine Realms Great Demonic Flame" around him forming a thin barrier. This flame, belonging to the mid-grade Perfection Divine Ability, not only completely isolated the high temperature within the ruins, but even the ancient fire spirits along the way, which were born by absorbing pure yang energy, trembled and retreated voluntarily after sensing the aura of this demonic flame.
Ji Meiniang, Ziyuan, and Hong Yao followed closely behind, their eyes filled with fascination as they gazed at the imposing figure in blue robes ahead. With their husband's almost divine protection, this perilous ancient ruin was no different from their own backyard.
"My lord, the formations in these ruins seem to retain the mechanisms of the ancient trials," Ziyuan said softly, gazing at a grand hall in front of them, its walls covered by a massive fire shield. "Only by breaking through the outer barriers can we enter the core area."
Dongfang Yueming nodded slightly. He didn't try to unravel any complicated formations; he simply raised his right hand and pointed out with one finger.
"[Taiyi Wuliang·Hunyuan Sword Realm]."
"Sizzle--!"
An invisible and formless Primordial Sword Qi, yet possessing destructive cutting power, burst forth from the sky! The fire shield, which was powerful enough to withstand the full-force attack of Late-Stage Nascent Soul, was instantly and silently cleaved in two like a hot knife through butter before this mid-grade sword-type Divine Ability, collapsing with a deafening roar!
"Let's go." Dongfang Yueming led the three women, strolling leisurely into the main hall.
Inside the main hall, the furnishings were simple and ancient. On the altar in the very center, a jade slip emitting a pinkish-gold light floated.
Ji Meiniang stepped forward, and after probing with her Divine Sense, a blush of surprise appeared on her beautiful face. "Husband! The Primordial Pure Yang Sect did indeed have a dual cultivation lineage back then! This is a [Low-grade Dual Divine Ability - The Great Sun Dragon and Phoenix Harmony Art]!"
A hint of surprise flashed in Dongfang Yueming's eyes. Dual Divine Ability techniques were extremely rare, and he hadn't expected to gain such a skill so soon after arriving in the Central Continent. He accepted the jade slip.
[Learn the "Lower-Grade Dual Cultivation Divine Ability: Great Sun Dragon and Phoenix Harmony Art"!]
[System, Point Allocation Perfection!]
"Buzz!" The Source Point in the Sea of Consciousness flowed rapidly, and in just a few breaths, this low-grade dual cultivation Divine Ability was deduced to 100% Perfection.
Without hesitation, Dongfang Yueming then colliding it with the already Perfection "Yin-Yang Great Heaven-Fusing Dual Cultivation Divine Ability" within his body!
"Merge!"
"Boom!" Inside the dantian, two low-grade dual cultivation Divine Ability seeds were frantically being refined under the Taiji purple-gold light!
[Successfully integrated! Obtained: Mid-grade Dual Cultivation Divine Ability - "True Explanation of Chaos Yin-Yang Creation" (0/1,000,000, not yet at the Entry)!]
"System, fill up!"
[Consumed 1 million Source Point, breakthrough successful! The derivation of "The True Explanation of Chaos Yin-Yang Creation" has reached: 100% Perfection!]
With the Perfection of his intermediate-grade dual cultivation Divine Ability, Dongfang Yueming exuded an extremely sacred yet fatally alluring aura of creation. Under the shroud of this aura, Ji Meiniang and the other two women felt their legs go weak, and their internal energy even began to cheer uncontrollably, wishing they could immediately pounce on the hall and make love with their husbands.
"Husband... the aura of this Divine Ability... Meiniang can't take it anymore..." Ji Meiniang's long, black-stockinged legs crossed slightly, her eyes filled with tears.
Dongfang Yueming smiled gently, pinched her plump waist, and concealed his Divine Ability aura. "Once we've obtained the most crucial treasure of this ruin, we'll deal with you properly when we get back."
Upon hearing this, the three girls blushed and responded expectantly.
Leaving the side hall, the four continued their journey towards the "Pure Yang Main Hall," the deepest part of the ruins.
When they arrived at the square outside the main temple, they found that an extremely fierce battle had broken out there.
Tens of thousands of cultivators from the Central Continent suffered heavy casualties, their blood staining the plaza crimson. At this moment, a dozen or so elders from major sects in the Central Continent, radiating terrifying pressure from the Mid Nascent Soul and even Late-Stage Nascent Soul realms, were joining forces to frantically attack a protective barrier on the main hall's gate.
Behind the restriction, one could vaguely see an ancient three-legged Golden Crow Cauldron that exuded the power to suppress heaven and earth, as well as several golden jade slips that shimmered with supreme Daoist charm!
"It's a mid-grade magic treasure— the Great Sun Black Gold Cauldron! A supreme treasure comparable to the Nascent Soul Formation Stage!"
"And the Pure Yang Sect Sect's signature martial arts technique!"
Ji Meiniang recognized the cauldron's grade at a glance, and her breathing became rapid. Such a treasure, if placed in the Central Continent, would be enough to cause a bloodbath!
"Boom!" With the combined attack of those Nascent Soul monsters from the Central Continent, the protective barrier of the main hall finally let out a mournful cry of despair and shattered with a crash!
"Hahaha! The mid-grade magic weapon is mine!" A Late-Stage Nascent Soul, his body wreathed in blood-red light, laughed wildly and transformed into a streak of blood-red light, rushing towards the gate!
The other dozen or so old monsters also had bloodshot eyes and followed closely behind, each refusing to give way.
"Get out of here!"
However, just a moment before they were about to rush through the gate...
A calm, yet seemingly imbued with the will of Heaven, voice suddenly rang out across the entire square.
Immediately afterwards.
"Roar--!!!!!"
Nine ancient fire dragons, each thousands of feet long and engulfed in dark purple demonic flames, roared out of the Xukong without warning!
