Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension Chapter 1239 - 674: Mysterious Giant Skull (Part 2)

The silver-white sphere shot out several hundred miles almost in the blink of an eye, transforming into a distant black dot and disappearing beyond the mountains.

The Flying Whisker Giant Tigers chased for a while, and as they saw the main culprit escape without a trace, they circled in mid-air and then turned back, flying back into the white mist of the mountain peaks.

The silver-white sphere flew several thousand miles in one go, heavily tumbling into a mountainside, and then out jumped a petite woman.

At this mont, the woman was clutching a large egg in her arms, panting heavily.

She managed to steal a tiger egg from a nest of Mutant Demon Tigers with an average combat power at the Golden Core Peak, a feat achievable only through a combination of skill and luck.

This woman is nad Shangguan Qiao’er, temporarily ranked fifty-fourth in the competition, at the Golden Core Third Level, from the Tiangong Daoist School.

...

In a remote mountain hollow, spirit light shot through the void, and the intense sounds of spell collisions echoed incessantly.

The combatants: one side consisted of twenty-sothing giant Green Wolf Demon Beasts, each seven yards tall; the other side was an armored giant, whose fighting style suggested he hailed from the Wei Xiang lineage.

The battle was fierce yet short-lived, with over twenty Golden Core Sky Wolves perishing miserably in monts. Their condensed Luck Spirit Pearls directly turned the Jade Pendant from red to green, smoothly condensing a second Luck Halo.

Tian Shentian, at the Golden Core Fourth Level, temporarily ranked twenty-ninth in the competition, from the Taidou Daoist School.

...

As the prodigies from various Daoist academies gradually began to shine, rising from over two thousand disciples.

Deep within a mystical cave, Niu Ganshan stepped out from the fire sea, his face full of doubt.

"Hmm? No one? Did I hear wrong just now?" Niu Ganshan stood still, looking around, deep suspicion evident in his eyes.

Unbeknownst to him, pitch-black shadows seeped from the ceiling rocks overhead, suddenly swooping down.

In an instant, his entire being was enveloped by the shadows, writhing without pause, yet unable to muster any resistance.

"Heh heh!"

Amidst the eerie laughs, a heroic youth with red-irised eyes leaped down from above, eyes filled with admiration as he gazed at the masterpiece before him, bursting into maniacal laughter, "Obediently beco... Ah, no way!"

Before he finished speaking, the humanoid before him suddenly vanished into thin air, the sinister shadows pouncing onto empty space!

Simultaneously, with a "swish," a dark golden giant stick shot out with incomparable montum from the depths of the fire sea, smashing into the heroic youth.

Caught unprepared, the heroic youth’s body was instantly dented, spewing fresh blood as he flew backward, crashing heavily into a nearby rock wall, his body embedding deeply into it, montarily immobile.

Yet the damage to the physical body was a minor affair, since this shell was only temporarily used; it would be casually discarded once the major task was accomplished.

In truth, the Destruction Divine Light erupting from the Water and Fire Splitting Mountain Stick was the true trump card that severely injured the opponent.

Xin Yuanzi was skilled at the Shadow Evil Divine Ability, his consciousness could attach to the shadows of all beings and survive in the world, as long as the shadow was unhard, his consciousness and Divine Soul would remain intact.

It’s fair to say most Five Elents Yin Yang type divine power techniques couldn’t harm his essence.

Unfortunately, fate wasn’t on his side this ti; eting Niu Ganshan, whose Destruction Divine Light originating from the Destruction Dao not only restrained Yin and Yang and the five elents but also was a heaven-sent restraint against outcast cultivators like him.

Therefore, even though Xin Yuanzi was a Nascent Soul Cultivator, due to possessing another person, he was unable to wield half his strength, further compounded by being confused by illusions, ultimately getting severely injured by a single strike.

Xin Yuanzi’s entire body was swiftly corroded by dim gray light, his consciousness beca confused and blurry, faintly hearing a Breaking Void sound in his ears, and the Mountain Splitting Stick hit him solidly once more, scattering his Divine Soul and mana with a single blow.

Without a chance to beg for rcy, three waves of Destruction Divine Light fell upon his head and all throughout his body, his visible form inch by inch disappearing from sight.

Only then did the fire sea suddenly split to the sides, and Niu Ganshan, holding a hazy, illusionary "Treasure Bead," flew out from the rear.

In the blink of an eye, the Mountain Splitting Stick whistled and circled the air, landing in its master’s hand.

Niu Ganshan, unaware that he had just slain a Demon Path Nascent Soul, rely eased his brows, bending down to pick up the Luck Jade Pendant and several remaining Storage Bags from the ground,

then, absorbing the opponent’s Qi Fortune, watched his Jade Pendant swiftly change from yellow to red, faintly tinged with strands of green light.

Witnessing this scene, Niu Ganshan was greatly shocked, and a sense of apprehension crept into his heart.

A mont later, he traversed a narrow cave passage and arrived at a gigantic underground cavern.

In the center of the cavern stood an eerie peak, resembling a gigantic face, with a pair of extrely elongated, ghastly pale eyes whose corners reached all the way to the back of the head.

A vast array of colorful flowing light swirled around the peak, exuding an indescribable grandeur, as if it were a heavenly might.

Unbeknownst to him, Niu Ganshan was drawn toward the mountain, suddenly soaring upward, heading straight for the summit.

re monts later, he landed atop the gigantic altar, and the scene before him left him shocked once more.

A grotesque head the size of a pavilion hovered in the air above the center of the altar, its eyes tightly shut!

The giant head possessed two towering, pitch-black horns. A ss of red hair resembling wild grass with layers of dark scales covering most of its face, made the head appear extraordinarily mysterious as bits of colorful flowing light seeped from the corners of its mouth.

Part of the massive head was missing, its skull vanished, its jaw and ears torn and mostly absent. A thick, golden-red spear was embedded right through its forehead, sinking in with more than half of its body, making it extrely conspicuous.

Seeing the grotesque appearance of the giant head, Niu Ganshan’s heart skipped a beat. The whispers in his ear suddenly grew clearer, sinking deep into his divine soul.

This place seed to be a sealing ground, sealing what appeared to be the head of a monstrous demon of imnse power.

Niu Ganshan wished to flee imdiately, but his spirit was gradually bewitched by the whispers, causing him to walk, srized, towards the giant head step by step...

Nineteenth in rank, from the Taidou Daoist School.

...

Amidst the unfolding talents of the Taoist school’s champions, erging from over two thousand disciples.

Deep within that mysterious cave, Niu Ganshan erged from the sea of fire with a face full of doubt.

"Hmm? No one’s here? Did I mishear just now?" Niu Ganshan stood in place, looking around, his eyes filled with deep suspicion.

Unnoticed by him, shadowy figures began to "seep" from the rock ceiling above, suddenly swooping down.

In an instant, he was enveloped by countless inky black figure shadows, writhing in place without any ans to resist.

"Heh heh!"

Amid the eerie laughter, a towering youth with red eyes leapt down from above, gazing appreciatively at his work in front of him, laughing wildly: "Obediently beco... Ah, not quite right!"

Before he finished speaking, the human figure before him suddenly vanished into thin air, and the eerie shadows found themselves pouncing on nothing!

In the sa instant, with a "whoosh" sound. An enormous, dark-golden stick shot forth with unparalleled montum from deep within the sea of fire, smashing ferociously onto the towering youth.

The towering youth was caught off-guard, his body instantly struck with a deep indentation, spewing blood from his mouth as he was sent flying, crashing heavily into the nearby rock wall, his body deeply embedded and unable to move for the mont.

However, physical damage was a minor issue, as this body was rely temporary and would be discarded upon achieving greater goals.

In fact, the destruction divine light unleashed by the Water and Fire Splitting Mountain Stick was the ultimate trump card to severely injure the opponent.

Xin Yuanzi was a master of the Shadow Evil Divine Ability, able to exist through the shadows of sentient beings, as long as the shadows remained untouched, his consciousness and divine soul would remain unhard.

It could be said that most Five Elents Yin Yang-type divine power techniques could not harm his essence.
