Hao Ren gradually raised the magical treasure, staring in astonishment as the magnificent Dragon God Temple crumbled into a pile of rubble.
The once glorious and symbolically supreme institution representing the dragon race instantly collapsed.
Even if they were to establish an equivalent "assembly hall" for the dragons to regulate matters, it would never again be the awe-inspiring Dragon God Temple.
Hao Ren retrieving this magical treasure meant that the Dragon God Temple lost its support; all of the spiritual energy sustaining the temple was instantly stripped away.
All arrays lost their power to continue functioning.
Everything related to the Dragon God Temple, including inspectors, contribution points, examinations, magical treasures, martial arts techniques, and the heavenly prison housing dragon criminals, became history.
Swoosh…
Nine deputy temple lords emerged from among the rubble, looking regretfully at the rapidly sinking Dragon God Temple.
Returning the Treasure of the East Sea to the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace came at the cost of the destruction of the Dragon God Temple!
The newly rising and almost capable of attracting all dragon warriors, surpassing all dragon factions' power, collapsed with its glory due to the removal of this magical treasure.
Bang bang bang…
The heavy platform floating high in the sky, lacking sufficient spiritual energy support, plunged into the nearby sea surface.
The massive waves raised submerged several nearby mountain peaks!
In a distant village, people saw water that should have flowed to the sea suddenly surge back and flood, washing away an old stone bridge, causing a brief panic.
Xie Yujia was stunned as she floated beside Hao Ren, not expecting the Dragon God Temple's collapse to cause such commotion.
"Temple Lord!"
The nine deputy temple lords, seeing that the temple lord had sunk with the Dragon God Temple and not emerged from the sea surface, all called out in alarm.
Since the founding of the Dragon God Temple to this day, this omnipotent temple lord always meditated in a secret chamber at the top and never left the temple grounds.
Could it be...
Just as they were somewhat doubtful and about to dive into the sea for a look, a black figure shot out from the surface!
"Temple Lord!" The nine deputy temple lords called excitedly.
The temple lord had preemptively evacuated all inspectors and relocated prisoners in the heavenly prison to their respective dragon palaces days ago.
It seemed he anticipated Hao Ren's move to reclaim the magical treasure and planned on returning it to the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been this easy for Hao Ren to retrieve the treasure!
"The sunflower that never leaves the palace has left it!" A beam of light streaked across the sky, accompanied by a teasing remark.
"Since there is no longer a palace, how can one be said to leave it" The black glow from the palace master flew up into the clouds in response.
“Huh huh huh, that’s quite an excuse! Without a palace, it wouldn’t count as leaving the palace!” A soft and charming voice circled around in the sky before suddenly saying, "Xiao Hao, I received your clever distress signal. I’m going to save your grandma’s life for you. If you want to use this little stick freely, it would be better if you refine it into an innate magical treasure!"
Whish…
As the words were spoken, that beam of light flashed toward the direction of the East Sea and vanished.
"Thank you for reminding me, auntie!" With all his might, Hao Ren shouted loudly, not caring whether or not Consort Zhen could hear him.
Now that he had reached the Four Lotus stage, he truly understood how formidable Consort Zhen was. The speed of movement alone of the Demon King with six lotuses was something he couldn’t match at all.
The man whom Consort Zhen called "Kui" paused in midair and then sped toward the East Sea as well.
Heaven Dragon!
Hao Ren judged from his speed and aura that this palace master’s strength was not inferior to his own! He must be at least a Heaven Dragon of the Four Lotus stage!
The nine deputy palace masters were chasing after their leader, desperately racing toward the direction of the East Sea.
Although the Divine Dragon Palace no longer existed, this Divine Dragon Palace’s palace master was still their leader!
"Stabilizing… The… Ocean… Magic… Needle…"
Xie Yujia accompanied Hao Ren and softly recited those words.
Hao Ren followed her gaze and saw that the giant cylindrical silver surface gradually revealed four shining golden ancient characters—Stabilizing Ocean Magic Needle!
It was an ancient relic left in the Dragon Palace of the East Sea by the legendary Yu the Great when he controlled floods! It was also the weapon of that wondrous monkey!
This magic needle was a primordial holy artifact no weaker than any of the Ten Sacred Weapons inside the Nine Dragons Palace. However, it wasn’t truly considered to be a magical treasure since it had to suppress the demonic aura of the Dragon Palace of the East Sea and thus remained there instead of being stored in the Nine Dragons Palace.
The Stabilizing Ocean Magic Needle didn’t have any magnificent powers; it was just an ancient heavy column that radiated with primordial spirit energy, capable of stabilizing the sea and calming the wind!
It would be more accurate to call it a large iron pillar from ancient times, suitable material for refining into a magical treasure. But there were no more powerful magical treasures able to cut through it.
Xie Yujia was far more shocked than Hao Ren. This legendary and famous treasure had actually fallen into Hao Ren’s hands! Consort Zhen even told him to refine it into an innate magical treasure!
This legendary weapon could only change its length; there were no other abilities besides that. It might have been heavier than anything else.
Compared in terms of powers, it wasn’t as good as the Kunlun Divine Lamp that Duan Yao had used before!
"Seal!"
Hao Ren unleashed a torrent of spirit energy from his arm, but the Stabilizing Ocean Magic Needle remained motionless. His spirit energy was almost completely absorbed by it. After initially being able to lift it up, Hao Ren could do nothing more about it.
Thinking of Grandma still being in danger, and the vortex of demonic energy appearing again in the East Sea, Hao Ren was anxious. He unleashed the full power of the Four-Petaled Lotus!
But this divine metal, which is on par with the Ten Great Divine Treasures, could not be controlled by Hao Ren who only possessed a Four-Petaled Lotus!
If Hao Ren were to move it to the Dragon Palace in the East Sea and reinstall it, that would still be feasible. However, if he wanted to subdue it and make it his life-bound treasure, it was simply wishful thinking!
Thousands of years ago, it had once been used by a demon king for a period of time, but that wasn't its life-bound treasure either. It was more like the relationship between Hao Ren and Jin Guang Shield; merely a form of cooperation!
Achieving divine treasure status, its spirit returned to chaos and wouldn’t be as lively as Jin Guang Shield, but it still retained its arrogance!
Hao Ren couldn't control the Divine Needle that Stabilizes the Sea and was dragged down toward the sea surface.
"Hao Ren!" Xie Yujia worried about Hao Ren and hurriedly followed him downward.
If Lu L琳琳和陸莉莉還在郝仁身邊，她們一定會幫郝仁想出煉化定海神針的方法。但現在，郝仁隻能憑意識與實力征服這件神寶！
如果不行的話，以神器沉穩的特性，它也不會隨意遁入天地之間。
“走開走開……”
郝仁在海水中打出無數劍光。
八荒**天罡絕殺陣！
密密麻麻的劍光包圍住了定海神針！
郝仁從未想過還要與這件法寶相鬥，但甄妃的一句話卻挑起了他的心思。
定海神針冇有任何神通，隻有強悍的特點，這讓郝仁有機會!
如果像崑崙神燈那樣的法寶，強行去煉化的話，恐怕還冇來得及收服它，自己的魂魄就被這盞神燈吸走了！
而定海神針如果掙紮，頂多捱上幾下，以郝仁混沌雷修的身體，應該也撐得住。
“天罡！”
郝仁雙手合攏。
攪動在海水中的無數劍光組合成天地劍陣，形成了無數的雷劍！
這種劍陣就是五瓣蓮境界的修真者被困其中也難以脫身。
郝仁修煉分光劍影決，以劍陣之威能對抗境界更強的修真者。到了頂端，即使他隻是四瓣蓮境界也能圍殺五瓣蓮境的修真者！
婆婆給他的劍陣之書威力驚人。
圓柱形的定海神針巍然屹立在這片海域中，層層威壓散發出來讓郝仁的劍光幾乎無法壓製過去。
The round Divine Needle that Stabilizes the Sea stood majestically in this sea, emitting layers of oppressive energy that almost prevented Hao Ren's sword light from suppressing it.
"Go!"
Xie Yujia activated two life-and-death origin talismans to seal off the top and bottom ends of the Needle That Stabilizes the Sea.
This was the first set of life-and-death talismans given to her by Qingfeng Scattered Immortal, which could traverse heaven and earth.
Hum…
The Golden Light Shield hesitated for a moment before emitting countless beams of golden light. Although it feared the imposing aura of the Needle That Stabilizes the Sea, at this time, it had to lend a hand!
If Hao Ren could tame the Needle That Stabilizes the Sea, then it would be the predecessor of that ancient holy treasure! It was after all the one who first followed Hao Ren around!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
The Needle That Stabilizes the Sea suddenly swung horizontally like a helicopter's rotor blades, whirring loudly.
It could be triggered by Hao Ren because he cultivated the Five Elements Spiritual Energy which contained Celestial Forces, resembling an ancient cultivator.
But for Hao Ren to try to tame it with his mere Spirit Formation Realm cultivation was not going to be so easy!
The seawater churned violently; Hao Ren's sword array was almost washed away in the sea…
Xie Yujia frowned, controlling the two origin talismans of life and death, desperately trying to keep it stable...
If it were a divine treasure like the Eastern Emperor Bell or the Pangu Axe, the result would inevitably be that the cultivator would spew blood from overexerting themselves.
But the Needle That Stabilizes the Sea did not have such abilities; it was merely an ancient divine metal segment which had never even been forged.
It had undergone no meticulous adjustments by any divine beings, possessed no intricate spells or techniques—it simply absorbed heavenly and earthly spiritual energy over time, gradually taking on a divine nature. That was all!
In comparison to the Ten Great Divine Treasures, it lacked an illustrious background and mysterious powers, despite being from the same era as them. It was like the distinction between commoners and nobles, standing silently in the East China Sea, cultivating with its meager divine awareness.
Had it not been for that demon king picking it up, it might never have become known to anyone.
It was precisely because of this that when it shone brilliantly, how could cultivators casually tame it! Even those holy immortals would be unable to收納這段鐵疙瘩！
Bang...
Tidal waves surged towards Hao Ren.
The hidden currents beneath the sea were even more violent than above; Hao Ren formed sword seals and tightened his sword array with all his might!
Sword light hummed, each beam equivalent to a fine heavenly bolt of lightning!
"Whether you submit or not, I must tame you if I want to save my grandmother!" Hao Ren roared in anger, the more he thought about it, the angrier he became. "If Queen Mother Xi doesn't help me save my grandma, I'll attack the Heavenly Realm!"
Attack the Heavenly Realm!ine white teeth looked like little pearls, as she bit down on the pen tip and pouted her rosy lips slightly while frowning with brows knitted together, which was rather amusing to watch.Hao Ren didn't...
