The Power of Devouring, Unstoppable by All

In an instant, the terrifying devouring power slammed into the Prison-Suppressing Pagoda, causing its defenses to collapse. Yang Jian was sent flying backward by the impact and crashed heavily to the ground.

"Pfft!"

Yang Jian coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"What terrifying power!"

Yang Jian couldn't help but show an expression of utter horror on his face, staring blankly at the scene before him.

His own Prison-Suppressing Pagoda was almost completely unable to withstand the attack; if he hadn't reacted in time, it would probably have been blasted to pieces in an instant.

"Hiss!"

Upon witnessing this scene, Yang Jian couldn't help but take a deep breath.

He hadn't expected his Prison-Suppressing Pagoda's defenses to be so weak.

"As expected of Hongmeng Supreme Treasure! It's absolutely terrifying. However, activating Hongmeng Supreme Treasure, and I don't have that much Yuan Qi to sustain it for that long. It seems I can only slowly refine this jade pendant!"

Yang Jian muttered to himself.

Yang Jian then calmed himself down and once again activated the Hongmeng Karmic Luck within his body to continue communicating with the jade pendant.

"Boom!"

Instantly, an even more powerful devouring force emanated from within the jade pendant, completely consuming all the Hongmeng Karmic Luck within Yang Jian's body.

"Not good!"

Feeling his Hongmeng Karmic Luck being completely devoured, Yang Jian's expression changed drastically. He clearly hadn't expected this outcome, and it was certainly not good news.

The next moment, Yang Jian hurriedly activated the Hongmeng Karmic Luck within his body, frantically trying to repair himself and recover.

However, to Yang Jian's surprise, he discovered that no matter how he tried to repair it, the Hongmeng Karmic Luck within his body could not be fully restored; in fact, it was becoming increasingly scarce. Clearly, the terrifying Hongmeng Karmic Luck contained within the jade pendant was far too powerful, and with his current level of cultivation, he simply could not fully withstand it.

"It seems that this really won't work. It's impossible to recover in such a short time. It looks like we should refine this jade pendant first!"

Yang Jian thought to himself.

Yang Jian immediately took out a small bottle from his ring, uncorked it, and popped a pill into his mouth. The next moment, he closed his eyes, calmed his mind, and began to refine the jade pendant.

"The Nine Provinces Spirit Cauldron, could it be a legendary sacred object?"

Yang Jian to himself, not because he had heard the legend of the Nine Provinces Spirit Cauldron, but because Yang Jian had seen records of it in ancient texts. The Nine Provinces Spirit Cauldron was an extremely rare spiritual treasure. It was said to be Sage Artifact from the Primordial World era, possessing unfathomable power. It was also said that once the Nine Provinces Spirit Cauldron was unleashed, it could even contend with a powerhouse at the Great Emperor level!

Yang Jian was certain that the jade pendant in his hand was definitely not the Nine Provinces Spirit Cauldron, but the material of the jade pendant was very similar to that of the Nine Provinces Spirit Cauldron, and Yang Jian could vaguely sense a familiar aura from it, which seemed to be very similar to the aura of the Nine Provinces Spirit Cauldron.

"Could this be... a fragment of the Nine Provinces Spirit Cauldron?!" Yang Jian suddenly realized something and exclaimed subconsciously.

The Nine Provinces Spirit Cauldron is a spiritual treasure from the Primordial World era. In High Antiquity times, it was a Sage Artifact. However, with the destruction of the Primordial World era, the Nine Provinces Spirit Cauldron from that time was lost and its whereabouts are unknown. Yang Jian never expected that he would encounter one here!

Yang Jian secretly guessed to himself.

However, Yang Jian did not dare to rashly use the Nine Provinces Spirit Cauldron, because he did not know how powerful it was. If he angered the powerful being in front of him, the consequences would be unimaginable, and it might even lead to Yang Jian's death.

Yang Jian around again and, finding that no one was paying attention, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He then took out three Jade Slip from his storage ring.

Then Yang Jian took out another pill and swallowed it.

At that moment, Yang Jian's already damaged wounds began to heal once again.

Soon, Yang Jian opened his eyes.

"Call!"

Feeling the surging energy within his body, Yang Jian couldn't help but show a hint of joy on his face.

At this moment, after feeling the immense power within his body, Yang Jian smiled, and a look of excitement flashed in his eyes.

Then Yang Jian's gaze fell on the jade pendant in his hand.

At this moment, Yang Jian already had a plan in mind. Since this jade pendant could prevent him from absorbing the Hongmeng Karmic Luck, Yang Jian had a way to subdue it!

Yang Jian immediately placed the jade pendant on the ground.

The next moment, the jade pendant was seen floating directly in mid-air, slowly drifting in the void.

"Call!"

Upon seeing this, Yang Jian's face immediately lit up with joy.

The jade pendant trembled slightly, and then strange patterns suddenly appeared on its surface. These patterns instantly converged towards the top of the pendant, and soon, a strange stream of energy rose from the top of the pendant and condensed into a rune.

"Buzz!"

A piercing buzzing sound came directly from the jade pendant, and then the runes on the pendant emitted a dazzling light. The next moment, the jade pendant disappeared from the air!

Upon seeing this, Yang Jian also showed a look of astonishment, clearly not expecting the jade pendant to disappear into thin air.

"Not good!"

Upon seeing this, Yang Jian immediately realized what was happening and quickly stretched out his right hand, instantly enveloping the entire valley.

The next moment, Yang Jian sat down cross-legged and began circulating his Qi of Chaos.

"Buzz!"

"Um?"

The next moment, a scene that shocked Yang Jian appeared.

As the Qi of Chaos entered, the jade pendant transformed into a giant black dragon that lunged at Yang Jian.

"What?!"

Upon seeing this, Yang Jian was greatly alarmed.

The next moment, Yang Jian directly mobilized the Hongmeng Spirit Fire and Hongmeng Thunder Fire within his body, launching a frenzied attack on the black dragon.

"Bang bang bang..."

A series of booming sounds came, and the next moment, Yang Jian felt an incomparably terrifying force sweep over him, blasting his body backward.

A bitter smile crept onto Yang Jian's lips. Although his strength had increased several times over compared to before, he was still utterly powerless against this mysterious man.

However, Yang Jian was also secretly pleased, because Yang Jian discovered that the Hongmeng Thunder Fire and Hongmeng Spirit Fire within his body had actually caused great harm to this mysterious person. This indicated that the mysterious person's physical body must be extremely terrifying; otherwise, such a thing would not have happened. Yang Jian thought to himself...

His conviction instantly became even stronger.
