Chapter 598: Not Afraid of You~~
ujia, I don't know how to draw this turbine either," Hao Ren deliberately moved closer and said."It's like this; you first need to..." Xie Rujia was just about to explain when she suddenly noticed it...Chapter 598: Not Afraid of You
In Hao Ren's芥子空間, there was also the Purple Gold Hairpin. This Golden Light Shield flew around in Hao Ren's芥子space but did not dare to collide rashly.
Hao Ren walked to the entrance of his cave residence and threw out the Purple Gold Hairpin. As soon as it landed on the soil in the valley, it instantly turned the entire valley purple.
The Golden Light Shield followed by flying out from Hao Ren's芥子space and circled around the spacious valley before suddenly spinning rapidly, drawing all the spiritual energy within the valley!
Damn!
Seeing the Golden Light Shield’s outrageous action, Hao Ren almost shouted.
This valley was chosen by Hao Ren due to its three-sided mountain terrain which made it slightly more spiritually rich compared to other places.
Later, Zhen Cunming set up an array formation which, with the aid of the Northern Dipper Array’s ability to shift spiritual energy, drew in the surrounding mountains' spiritual energy into the valley, making it even richer.
After several months under the influence of the array formation, the concentration of spiritual energy within the valley was still quite high, though not as much as the Sixth Firmament but much higher than the First Firmament.
But with this single action from the Golden Light Shield, all the accumulated spiritual energy over several months was instantly drained!
Hao Ren looked at the hovering Golden Light Shield in shock and anger, speechless; of course he knew that one could not reason with such a magic treasure.
The Purple Gold Hairpin quietly remained in the soil, taking no sides.
It was this hairpin that caught the Golden Light Shield, so it wouldn’t allow the shield to escape. Moreover, as an offering from Zhen Fei to Hao Ren, it certainly wouldn’t permit any harm to come to him; it only followed these two simple rules.
Xie Yujia also sensed a sudden decrease in spiritual energy within the valley and rushed to the entrance of the cave residence.
Seeing the Golden Light Shield in the valley, she froze for a moment.
Hao Ren had never before displayed such a treasure, but this one obviously wasn’t an ordinary item as it hovered steadily.
Xie Yujia didn’t have the concept of Heaven-Defying Spiritual Treasures, but having refined treasures for Su Han before, she knew that self-operating treasures were generally high-level and powerful ones.
The Golden Light Shield paused in mid-air at a high altitude for several seconds before whooshing towards the cave residence.
"Reckless!"
Hao Ren’s 320 sword beams suddenly shot out.
Xie Yujia also quickly threw out an Enchanting Spirit Scroll in her hand.
All the sword beams were absorbed by the golden shield, while that Enchanting Spirit Scroll was shattered by a ray of golden light from within the Golden Light Shield.
Buzz!
The Purple Golden Hairpin trembled slightly.
The Golden Light Shield circled twice before continuing to fly unsteadily in the valley.
Xie Yujia was scared and shivered, looking at Hao Ren with a puzzled expression.
“It’s a treasure tool I acquired from Xu Ke. It’s under control of the Purple Golden Hairpin; there's nothing to worry about.” Hao Ren said.
The Heaven-Connecting Spiritual Treasures had special spiritual natures, and if speaking in terms of intelligence, it was akin to that of a small animal.
The Purple Golden Hairpin often accompanied Princess Zhen by her side and followed the rules well. However, this Golden Light Shield hadn't been restrained by cultivators for many years and thus had become arrogant and careless.
“Then…” Xie Yujia thought about it and was about to speak.
“Haha, don’t think about it; it doesn’t listen to my commands.” Hao Ren waved his hand dismissively.
The valley had a slight deficiency in spiritual energy. Fortunately, the array formation started working again, absorbing external spiritual energy.
To deal with such Heaven-Connecting Spiritual Treasures, there were only two methods: one was to suppress it using overwhelming strength; the other was to treat it like a pet and coax it.
Xu Ke’s master used the latter method. He kept the Golden Light Shield by his side through constant offerings of spiritual energy. Whenever he would use this treasure tool in combat, he needed to compensate it with huge amounts of spiritual energy after bringing it back.
Hao Ren hadn’t considered using that approach; even if he knew about it, he wouldn’t do so because he was only a Rank 4 cultivator who still needed a lot of spiritual energy for cultivation. He certainly couldn't afford to feed the Golden Light Shield like the cave master of Taiyi Cave could.
The Golden Light Shield freely flew around in the valley while the Purple Golden Hairpin glowed with faint purple light, seemingly absorbing some spiritual energy from within the valley.
Hao Ren looked at the Purple Golden Hairpin and then at the Golden Light Shield before sighing slightly.
Outside the valley were dozens of Core Formation cultivators and hundreds of Foundation Establishment cultivators. However, these two top-grade treasure tools didn't obey their commands.
If you lacked power, even the法寶們都不理你。
Hao Ren gently patted Xie Yujia’s arm and returned to the cave with her.
Duan Yao was sitting on a rock chair, being stared at by Xiaobai who tilted its head. She ground her teeth but dared not make any move.
Just now, something golden had flown out of Hao Ren’s necklace; she couldn’t see clearly what it was.
But in her mind, no matter how powerful the treasure might be, it could never match the Heavenly Transformation Seal in her arms.
The Heavenly Transformation Seal was a treasure tool of her Great Perfection Core Formation master uncle. Since she herself wasn’t at such a high level, she couldn't fully unleash the power of the seal; if used by her master uncle, it would almost instantly destroy any other treasure tools!
Zhao Yanzǐ used a detoxifying pill, and the wounds that had split open during her fight with Duan Yáo began to heal. She glared angrily at Duan Yáo; if she wasn’t so seriously injured and unable to move properly, she would have rushed over and attacked Duan Yáo.
Xie Yujia pulled out the cinnabar brush and talisman paper again to draw a Spirit-Sealing Talisman. She originally didn't have enough spirit energy to cast this talisman, but now that Shi Wanjun had fainted for a while, she could manage it.
"Punch this talisman into her body so she can’t think of anything else." Xie Yujia handed the newly made talisman to Hao Ren.
Hao Ren channeled his spirit energy, and the talisman gradually lit up in his palm, floating around.
Duan Yáo stared wide-eyed at Hao Ren, but it was no use; Hao Ren snapped his fingers, flinging the talisman into Duan Yáo’s back.
In an instant, Duan Yáo felt that all her spirit energy had been sealed and she couldn’t use any of it.
"My cultivation base is too low. The effect of this talisman isn't strong, but it seems to be somewhat effective on Core Formation cultivators."
Xie Yujia looked at Duan Yáo’s stiff expression and nodded in satisfaction.
Duan Yáo was so furious that she wanted to bite her teeth off. This was completely using her body as a guinea pig!
The "thief" had done such terrible things, his two concubines were also very wicked! Wait till my great-uncle comes out of seclusion and see how you’ll survive!
Huff…
At that moment, Zhao Yanzǐ exhaled a long breath.
The few Grade Four pills had an excellent effect. Even though she was seriously injured, her body was able to recover. The chaotic spirit energy inside her finally entered the correct cycle according to her cultivation method, so in comparison, external injuries weren’t as urgent.
She got up and walked directly to Duan Yáo’s side, putting her hand into Duan Yáo’s clothes.
"You…what are you doing!" Duan Yáo hurriedly covered her clothes.
Zhao Yanzǐ put on a cold face and slowly took out a golden treasure from her embrace.
Hao Ren in the cave mansion didn’t expect that Duan Yáo was still hiding a treasure. He walked over to take a closer look, discovering that this treasure taken by Zhao Yanzǐ wasn’t inferior to Xie Yujia’s monster bow.
On the bottom of this seal-type treasure were three small seal script characters: Pāntiān Seal.
"You…give it back to me!" Duan Yáo shouted at Zhao Yanzǐ and Hao Ren.
But such shouting was powerless and ineffective.
Zhao Yanzǐ had been severely disadvantaged by the Pāntiān Seal when she met Duan Yáo halfway. Recalling the battle at the valley entrance, Duan Yáo really did beat her to death; if it weren’t for Xie Yujia’s timely intervention, she would have lost her life.
“Hmph!” Zhao Yanzǐ reached out and touched Duan Yáo’s waist. She finally found a jade pendant and pulled it off with force.
"You..." Duan Yao stared wide-eyed, her lips pale and trembling, too shocked to speak.
"Do you remember our first meeting You wanted to cut me down after just a few words," Zhao Yanzi glared at her with indignant energy, placing the jade pendant in her Amrita Ring.
Duan Yao was the pearl of Mount Tian Shan Sect; it's true that she had an arrogant personality. On that day, when Zhao Yanzi irritated her, she only wanted to teach Zhao Yanzi a lesson but didn't expect to create such a series of troubles.
If not for Hao Ren intervening, she was prepared to recall Zhao Yanzi’s snow lion back to Mount Tian Shan Sect, but she never thought about killing Zhao Yanzi.
In her mind, in the Fifth Level Heavens, wasn't it still up to her how things would go Could there be anyone who could control the Mount Tian Shan Sect within the Five Layers of Heaven
A girl like Zhao Yanzi, not showing her respect and even contradicting her—wasn’t that a crime punishable by death
But she never imagined Zhao Yanzi would be so troublesome; with Hao Ren's backing, nearly a thousand cultivators from Mount Tian Shan Sect were mobilized, yet she herself was captured!
"You wait! My great uncle will definitely avenge me!" Duan Yao glared at Zhao Yanzi and said fiercely.
"Let your great uncle come if he has the ability!" Zhao Yanzi challenged her with a sneer.
She was the princess of East Sea Dragon Palace, surrounded by admiration. However, it was because Zhao Guang worried about spoiling her that she had been brought to live on land; otherwise, Zhao Yanzi would have been similar to Duan Yao.
"You wait! You just wait!" Unable to outdo Zhao Yanzi in words and with her spiritual energy completely sealed off, Duan Yao was so angry that tears welled up in her eyes.
Zhao Yanzi didn't expect the fierce Duan Yao would start crying when she couldn't win an argument. She unconsciously wanted to comfort her a bit, but then remembered how Duan Yao had injured and almost killed her; she instantly hardened her heart again: "I'll tell you this—don’t come near me ever again or I’ll steal from you every time we meet!"
She originally wanted to say something even harsher, but in the end, she didn't. Under the strict discipline of Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu, her upbringing was still quite good; although Zhao Hongyu occasionally pampered her, it wasn't excessive.
Duan Yao had never been bullied like this before. Thinking about being imprisoned here, with her most relied-upon great uncle not appearing after she sent out a distress signal and being humiliated by Zhao Yanzi while also under the watchful gaze of that snow lion... Tears began to fall from her eyes.
Seeing Duan Yao cry, Zhao Yanzi was stunned for a moment. Feeling awkward, she turned around and used her Purple-Green Treasure Sword to return to her own cave residence.
Xie Yujia sat by the stone bed without paying attention to Duan Yao.
She held a vermilion sand pen and seriously drew one "Seal Spirit Talisman" after another. No one knew when cultivators from Mount Tian Shan Sect would launch another attack, so using this time to prepare more talismans was the most practical choice.
Hao Ren sat cross-legged on the stone bed facing Duan Yao, his eyes closed as he practiced Split Light Sword Shadows Technique. Having just broken through the encirclement of Mount Tian Shan Sect cultivators and rushed into the valley, followed by commanding an array formation, he had already depleted most of the spiritual energy stored in his body; now was a critical time to restore it.
Seeing Xie Yujia ignore her and Hao Ren closing his eyes, with only the third-stage snow lion still staring at her with its black pupils, Duan Yao slowly stopped crying. She felt hungry as she heard her stomach growling.
All valuable items had been taken away by them, but it seemed they didn't intend to mistreat this captive. Seeing them each engrossed in their own activities, Duan Yao felt neglected.
Swish... Zhao Yanzi returned with a pile of food on her Purple-Green Treasure Sword and threw the items onto Xie Yujia's stone bed. high in the sky. Today's rainfall was handled by Elder Lu; Grandma mentioned that Donghai City's favorable weather conditions were a blessing from Dragon Palace of Eastern Sea, which wasn't without r...
