Chapter 607 - 606: Broken Spirit Treasure!
However, in the voice of Ancestor Jinsha, there was no hint of arrogance or superiority typically associated with a powerful Yang Spirit figure; instead, there was a hint of explanation.It was truly because Gu Yuan’s earlier display had frightened Ancestor Jinsha.
Ancestor Jinsha knew that Gu Yuan was strong and was indeed an extraordinarily talented figure with numerous skills.
He just didn’t expect Gu Yuan to be even stronger than he had imagined!
Granny Mei Hua, an entity of the same level as him, was directly slain by Gu Yuan on the spot. Even in retrospect, Ancestor Jinsha found it both shocking and absurd.
At the same time, his attitude toward Gu Yuan had clearly changed.
He not only regarded Gu Yuan as an equal but even vaguely saw his status as being elevated.
In his view, a character like Gu Yuan had limitless future achievements.
At least, in the past tens of thousands of years in the East Sea Cultivation Realm, there had never been such a figure.
The Primordial Spirit True Immortal Realm might not necessarily be his end.
"Leave it to me."
Gu Yuan slightly nodded, not refusing Ancestor Jinsha’s request.
Because this was precisely what the two had planned.
Originally, the two intended to strike together, aiming to kill either Elder Chaotic Heaven or Granny Mei Hua first.
However, if there was a suitable opportunity, they didn’t have to strictly adhere to their plan.
Therefore, Gu Yuan decisively acted against Granny Mei Hua just now.
Who would have thought, Gu Yuan overestimated Granny Mei Hua’s strength and underestimated his own strength.
Before Ancestor Jinsha could assist, Granny Mei Hua was already killed by him.
So...
Now the two still had one target left—to kill Elder Chaotic Heaven!
And now, Elder Chaotic Heaven was trapped in Ancestor Jinsha’s array, unable to escape for the moment, so now was the best time to kill Elder Chaotic Heaven!
Gu Yuan naturally wouldn’t miss such an opportunity.
A faint layer of five-colored radiance appeared on the surface of his body.
With just a flash of the light, Gu Yuan had already flown near Elder Chaotic Heaven.
The Five-Colored Immortal Sword in his hand once again unleashed an extremely powerful and sharp ultimate sword light, decisively striking the Spiritual Light formed by the magical treasure outside Elder Chaotic Heaven’s body.
Sizzle—!!!
With a somewhat piercing sound, the seemingly resilient, yet half-eroded Spiritual Light was split open by Gu Yuan’s sword.
"Stop! I bear no grudge against you, young friend. There’s no need for you to strike at me. If you desire anything, speak up, and if I have it, I will surely agree!"
Seeing the unfavorable situation, Elder Chaotic Heaven cast out a Demon Flame to sway away the sword light while quickly speaking.
However, Gu Yuan ignored this, remaining silent as his Long Sword swung out once more.
Meanwhile, the surrounding sandstorm became increasingly fierce.
Whizzing—Whizzing—
Countless grains of sand quickly condensed together, transforming into golden chains, each as thick as a waist, clanking loudly.
Nine chains intertwined and entangled, firmly sealing off Elder Chaotic Heaven’s retreat and life force.
At this moment, Gu Yuan’s Five-Colored Sword Light was about to fall upon Elder Chaotic Heaven.
"Hmph, you seek death!"
Seeing no way out, and no way in, Elder Chaotic Heaven’s face darkened, gritting his teeth as he decisively used his trump card.
He formed a seal with his hands, and a black Iron Tower flashed into existence from the back of his head.
It had six levels, dark and dreary, its surface glowing faintly but inscribed with various Yaksha Demon, ghost and malevolent spirit motifs, full of slaughter and bloodlust.
However, another side of this Black Tower was visibly battered and dilapidated, seemingly devoid of power.
Just this seemingly battered Iron Tower emitted a faint aura that wasn’t particularly intense but gave both Gu Yuan and Ancestor Jinsha a feeling of eerie dread.
The Iron Tower began to spin, emitting strange evil light, seemingly brewing something.
"This is... a Spirit Treasure?! Young friend, quickly dodge!"
Ancestor Jinsha’s face changed dramatically.
Yet Gu Yuan’s reaction was even faster than Ancestor Jinsha’s.
Recognizing it as a Spirit Treasure, despite its severe damage, Gu Yuan not only did not retreat but advanced directly.
The Five-Colored Sword Light had already struck the Iron Tower.
Clang...
A deafening metal clang reverberated through the space within the sandstorm array.
Ripples spread out, and where they passed, the tiny, piercing grains of sand, like flying needles, lost their power and scattered with the ripples.
Crack! Crack!
The Five-Colored Sword Light in Gu Yuan’s hand shattered, breaking apart into countless fragments, shooting in all directions, with power rivaling that of a typical magical treasure.
The drifting five-colored light spots were mesmerizing yet extremely dangerous!
"Not good!"
Seeing this, Ancestor Jinsha felt a jolt in his heart, sensing trouble.
He hadn’t anticipated that Elder Chaotic Heaven would bring out a Spirit Treasure Black Tower!
A Spirit Treasure, in a sense, is equivalent to a Primordial Spirit True Immortal!
In some ancient traditions, because none of the disciples could shoulder the mantle and become a Primordial Spirit True Immortal, they relied on their Spirit Treasure to uphold their luck and heritage.
Why are those Immortal Sects with a Spirit Treasure deemed Sacred Lands, while those without, possessing only a few Yang Spirit figures, considered first-class influences?
It’s simple; it’s precisely because of the Spirit Treasure.
This is a Primordial Spirit Level foundation, a Spirit Treasure endows the Dao lineage with perpetual inheritance and continuation.
Despite the severe damage to Elder Chaotic Heaven’s Black Tower, making it no longer a complete Spirit Treasure, it is enough to deal with Gu Yuan!
After all...
Though Gu Yuan’s combat power is astonishing, his Cultivation is not considered high.
Even if this Spirit Treasure Black Tower retains only one or two tenths of its power, it’s enough to suppress Gu Yuan!
"Spirit Treasure..."
Gu Yuan released the sword hilt, the five-colored sword handle dissolving into five-colored light points, wafting away with the wind.
His gaze settled upon the damaged Black Tower before him, clearly a little surprised.
Even if his earlier strike was something no Yang Spirit could withstand or ignore, and a Middle Grade Magical Treasure would have been cleaved in two, it was shattered upon this tower.
Of course, this was because that Five Spirits Demon-slaying Sword wasn’t a true Lifebound Magical Treasure, but something Gu Yuan had condensed with the Dreamlike Void Great Divine Techniques, perhaps boasting six or seven tenths of the power, but inherently inferior.
Even so, it could still kill one or two Yin Spirit Giants without issue.
This spoke volumes about how terrifying the Spirit Treasure Black Tower was.
But... you have your strategy, and I have mine.
Fortunately, he came prepared, having already brought something with him.
Yes, the current Gu Yuan was still merely an incarnation, not his true self.
Though he and Ancestor Jinsha had a pact, and they shared a common enemy, maintaining a decent relationship, Gu Yuan never easily placed his trust in anyone.
