Chapter 505: The Master Of The Celestial Mirror
Apart from the location of the Chaos Vine, the other areas were barren, with no vegetation. The vast valley was bare, as if all the essence of heaven and earth, and the essence of all living things, had been absorbed by it alone.
"The Chaos Vine feels so tangible. The higher-level spiritual realm is really strange. It can actually give birth to real gourds," Wang Xuan sighed.
Jiang Qingyao and him approached, examining the vine as thick as a water tank and feeling reluctant to leave the red-skinned gourd surrounded by chaotic mist.
"If there's no major disturbance and no accidents, let's try to take it with the furnace when we leave!" Wang Xuan said.
"Have you seen what's inside the red-skinned gourd?" Celestial Sword Maiden asked. As they spoke, they headed towards the valley below to get closer to the mysterious blood pool.
"I can't see clearly. It's flat, with light. I suspect it might be a large piece… of the Celestial Mirror," Wang Xuan said.
Although he hadn't seen through it, he had so associations. The most famous object of that shape was undoubtedly the supre treasure, the Celestial Mirror.
Jiang Qingyao showed a surprised expression for the first ti. If it was a fragnt of the Celestial Mirror, then its origin was truly extraordinary.
Originally, so people wanted to transform between illusion and reality. They wanted to lead an entire mythical era into the so-called Realm of Truth. Those people ca from the super civilization that refined the Celestial Mirror. As a result, it ended in a tragic manner, with a super civilization buried, and even the Celestial Mirror was shattered. Records of it were extrely rare.
Currently, only the Celestial Mirror and the Dao Harnessing Banner had crumbled from bearing great karma.Obviously, they were both extrely powerful, even to the point of being unimaginable, or else they wouldn't have encountered problems because of the hope that people put on them.
"The Celestial Mirror is kept in the Chaos Gourd, absorbing the essence of the Spiritual Blood Pool. This matter is a bit strange and sowhat frightening. Could it be related to that civilization?" Jiang Qingyao wondered.
They descended underground and instantly saw the dense blood clouds, the majestic spiritual energy. The underground world was resplendent, with red clouds billowing.
It felt too comfortable in this place. The spirit body seed to be regenerating flesh and blood, undergoing a baptism, an enlightennt from head to toe.
That was the most fundantal substance of spiritual energy, one of the highest forms of energy. In this world, the spirit was the essence of transcendence. Without the lever of spirit, other transcendent materials, other energies, could not be used by cultivators.
Jiang Qingyao squinted her eyes, showing a rare look of enjoynt, saying, "It's so comfortable. This feeling is like when I ascended to immortality after experiencing the tribulation of ten thousand thunderstorms. The experience of reshaping the spirit after the great destruction caused a fundantal transformation. It was an all-round improvent."
As they approached, the slender figure of the Celestial Sword Maiden suddenly tensed up, assuming a combat stance with the celestial sword held horizontally in front of her.
"Sothing is approaching!" Although she didn't know who it was yet, this feeling could not be wrong.
"Ancient evil spirits, not made by another universe's technology, but are true ancient monsters!" Wang Xuan spoke. He saw so terrifying creatures, with crimson eyes, strange and varied forms, each one of them different.
At a glance, there were densely packed, tens of thousands of them, erging from the cracks in the rocks. They appeared from the deepest part of the earth and surrounded the Spiritual Blood Pool.
These creatures were the most terrifying and sinister, specializing in devouring the spirit of others. They had unexpectedly entered their lair. It would be fine if they couldn't see each other, but now they were facing each other!
"I see them too, in groups and clusters, all blurry shadows," Celestial Sword Maiden said. Her talent was extrely outstanding, and she possessed a semi-mature spiritual eye.
A semi-mature spiritual eye was sothing that only transcendent above the Ninth Stage of Peerless-level could possess. It was a special case for Wang Xuan to have surpassed the limit of the spiritual eye, it was difficult to replicate.
"My goodness, there’s so many ancient evil spirits, tens of thousands of them. Do you think they are cultivating the gourds, waiting for the repair of the Celestial Mirror?" Wang Xuan muttered, summoning the Life Essence Furnace. If he didn’t use it at this critical mont, it would likely end in tragedy!
With so many ancient evil spirits, who knows what level of monsters was hidden among them. That kind of aura was unparalleled, corroding even Celestial Sword Maiden's peerless sword light, filling every inch of space with a creepy atmosphere.
"It's very likely that one of them, the Evil Spirit King, has refined the damaged supre treasure!" said Celestial Sword Maiden with an unprecedentedly serious expression.
They had the Life Essence Furnace, but there were too many ancient evil spirits on the other side. If they controlled the damaged supre treasure, the outco of fighting them to the death was unpredictable.
Another person would have fled long ago. This wasn't a place of cultivation, it was clearly a dead end, an unprecedentedly dangerous place. These were ancient evil spirits that specialized in devouring human spirits, and there were no creatures more sinister than them.
"If you don't try, how will you know? The Spiritual Blood Pools in the higher-level spiritual realm are hard to co by even a few tis in a mythical era. Since we've encountered one, with a supre treasure in hand, we shouldn't miss it!" Jiang Qingyao said.
She was now at the Fourth Stage of the Celestial Realm. If she received the supre baptism of the spiritual realm, she would definitely improve a lot. Wang Xuan was also determined.
The two entered the Life Essence Furnace, controlling it, slowly approaching the area where the red light was as large as the sun, and the spiritual energy was as colorful as the sunset. They were feeling more and more like they were about to ascend again.
"Raaa!" An ancient evil spirit that was clearly at the Peerless-level roared, imdiately followed by a series of howls.
Among the tens of thousands of evil spirits, several responded with strength comparable to his. Then, all the crimson eyes emitted a fierce light, and the underground world pulsated, with various monsters howling together.
Most importantly, as they beca agitated, the red gourd on the Chaos Vine started to emit light. The aura of the supre treasure was expanding, and there was great pressure surrounding it.
"The situation is bad. They can really summon the power of the broken Celestial Mirror!" said Wang Xuan as his expression changed. They were not in a good situation.
The two controlled the supre treasure and approached the pool. The Spiritual Blood Pool was not small, it was a round pool with a diater of ten feet. The bright red liquid was all primal power. So say it is the primal blood of the higher-level spiritual realm.
The concept of World Blood had its supporters and detractors. Another view was that it was the materialization of rules, a tangible bearer.
Tens of thousands of evil spirits were oppressed by the supre treasure but did not retreat. It was a decisive battle to summon the fragnts of the Celestial Mirror. The beams of light fell one after another, sheltering them. Otherwise, they wouldn't stand a chance when Celestial Sword Maiden activated the Life Essence Furnace and approached.
Suddenly, there was an abnormality in the Spiritual Blood Pool. All the beams of light from the fragnts of the Celestial Mirror shone in one place, shining at the blood pool, illuminating a creature.
To be precise, a creature had split the blood pool and walked out from inside, bathed in the light of the supre treasure, standing at the center of the evil spirits. It was too astonishing.
"Peerless transcendent!" Jiang Qingyao's face changed. She was also at a loss. Her heart felt heavy even with the supre treasure in hand.
If the Peerless-level monster wielded the fragnts of the Celestial Mirror, it was difficult to say what terrifying combat power it would unleash!
"She's not an evil spirit, she's a spiritual remnant, but a bit special!" Celestial Sword Maiden whispered.
Wang Xuan gazed at the creature. It was actually a woman.
She was tall, but covered in wounds, many of which were see-through from front to back, irreparable after countless years. She was not a true spirit but a spiritual remnant, without self-awareness, just acting on instinct!
The more wounds she had, the more terrifying and dangerous. She possessed Peerless-level power, far more terrifying than the monsters encountered on the journey!
Most terrifyingly, a piece of mirror fragnt was inserted into her head. It pierced her brow and was growing there, never removed.
That was… a fragnt of the Celestial Mirror. It seed that after the ancient mirror exploded, it pierced her forehead and remained there to this day!
Who exactly was this person, how powerful must she be to survive with the fragnt of a supre treasure embedded in her head after the supre treasure exploded?
"Let's retreat for now!" Wang Xuan said. There was no need to confront such dangerous creatures head-on. Even if they couldn't use this place to undergo their transformation, there were other places to explore.
"It will be difficult." Celestial Sword Maiden responded. It was hard to retreat. Although the Peerless-level monster and the damaged supre treasure were separated by a considerable distance, they seed to be naturally connected. The endless radiance fell entirely on her, and she could activate the power of the Celestial Mirror at any ti.
The evil spirits were especially respectful and reverent towards her. Then, they slowly retreated, regarding this spiritual remnant as a mighty god.
Boom!
The Celestial Mirror emitted light and struck towards them. The dazzling light all fell on the Life Essence Furnace, burning and vibrating, as if refining the furnace.
Wang Xuan and Celestial Sword Maiden closed the furnace lid and imdiately counterattacked. Jiang Qingyao's hands continued to glow as she activated the furnace. They chose to attack since they couldn't retreat.
After holding on for a mont, the supre treasure furnace shook violently. Celestial Sword Maiden spat out a mouthful of blood. She was injured when the damaged supre treasure was activated by the peerless transcendent. Her injury wasn't light.
Wang Xuan also coughed up blood, but he was quickly protected by the light emitted by Celestial Sword Maiden and the interwoven patterns of the Life Essence Furnace.
There was no doubt that the Peerless-level opponent across from them had also injuries. She was indeed extrely powerful, but the Celestial Mirror was incomplete and damaged.
After a brief calm, there was another violent shake, and the situation beca extrely critical. Celestial Sword Maiden coughed up several mouthfuls of blood in a row, and the collision of the supre treasures was extrely dangerous.
"Her weapon is incomplete and not nice to us at all. Let's go. We can leave!" Jiang Qingyao said. Although she was unwilling, she had to accept reality.
"Wait a mont, I vaguely sense that although she is acting on instinct, her energy fluctuations, the way her spirit vibrates, should be from a scripture I am familiar with!" said Wang Xuan with lit up eyes.
He confird it was the ntal Disorder Great thod!
There were rumors that this scripture emphasized the unique and true self and was used to refine the Celestial Mirror, which was top-tier even within supre treasures.
Wang Xuan quickly inford Jiang Qingyao of this scripture and shared so of his insights, urging her to practice it now and emit the sa spiritual vibrations to see if it would have an effect. After all, the woman was just a spiritual remnant, acting on instinct. Perhaps she would consider them as kin.
"It works!" exclaid Celestial Sword Maiden. After she tried it, the woman, covered in scars, hesitated and stopped killing instinctively. Instead, she stood there in a daze.
However, when they rode the supre treasure to contact the blood pool, she counterattacked again, activating the Celestial Mirror, causing both sides to shake violently. The Celestial Sword Maiden coughed up blood again and her face turned pale.
"If it's not working, let's just go!" said Wang Xuan as he was afraid she would get hurt. In fact, he was also in a miserable state. He wrapped himself with the Godslaying Banner, and his spirit was cracking even with the protection of the supre treasure and Celestial Sword Maiden's protection. The confrontation of supre treasures was dangerously terrifying.
Celestial Sword Maiden wrapped in beast skin scroll said, "She's injured too, but just now it seed like instinctive retaliation, and now she has stopped again."
Sure enough, after the Life Essence Furnace entered the blood pool this ti, she didn't act again but stared blankly, looking at the furnace body and sensing the fluctuations of the ntal Disorder Great thod.
Wang Xuan and Celestial Sword Maiden looked at each other with shock in their eyes. This person was likely the creator of this supre scripture and also the master of the Celestial Mirror in its pri!
Moreover, the one who wanted to overturn nothingness and reality, and bring that mythical era to the real world, was probably her! No wonder, even after countless years, she still possessed such power with only a spiritual remnant!
The two couldn't calm their hearts, but now they couldn't afford to think too much. They opened the lid, put in the reddish liquid from the blood pool, bathed in it, and began to elevate themselves.
"It's effective!" exclaid Wang Xuan. He was moved. In an instant, his spirit underwent a qualitative change, a sublimation, and the essence of life was being enhanced!
He felt that his Thirteenth Stage was perhaps reaching perfection. If it weren't for being isolated from the outside world in the Life Essence Furnace, he might have faced his tribulation.
"The effect is amazing!" Celestial Sword Maiden couldn't help but exclaim comfortably. In a short ti, she broke through a small bottleneck and reached the Fifth Stage of the Celestial Realm.
This might be the blood corresponding to the higher-level spiritual realm itself, or it could be the manifestation of the highest rules that allowed one's spirit to undergo transformation!
"Let's go, we can't stay long!" said Celestial Sword Maiden, remaining calm. However, the transformation continued even after leaving, but continued on the road!
The Life Essence Furnace was a supre treasure. In a blink of an eye, it absorbed enough of the red liquid, and the crimson radiance surged. The origin material in the furnace was extrely rich!
"Good!" exclaid Wang Xuan with a nod.
Suddenly, the Life Essence Furnace turned into a dazzling beam of light. Even the furnace walls beca crystalline. It tore through the void and disappeared directly from where they were, fleeing far away.
