Chapter 461 Three Divine Powers and Two Secret Techniques: Purple Fire Burns the Capital

This is his unique skill.

Dealing with Nascent Soul cultivators is a piece of cake; there are very few times when they fail.

However, the Master of Huangquan Temple is nominally the strongest person in Huangquan Temple.

Although the cultivation realm is one step behind, the strength far exceeds that of the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. Otherwise, the term "half-step deity" would not be used, as there is actually no such concept in cultivation realms.

There are fake pills, fake infants, heretical golden pills, and heretical nascent souls.

There is no concept of false gods or heretical deities...

What he achieved was a combat strength far exceeding that of a peak Nascent Soul cultivator, which significantly narrowed the gap between him and the Crimson Heaven Demon Lord, though he still couldn't defeat him in a direct confrontation.

But that doesn't mean he'll be defeated with just one move.

The Life-Saving Demon Claw moved with incredible speed. Despite being prepared, an endless torrent of turbid Yellow Springs suddenly burst forth from the main body of the Yellow Spring Temple, and the figure transformed into the yellow water and merged into it.

The nascent soul also disappeared.

The Crimson Heaven Demon Lord's carefully planned claw attack had failed, and the Proud Sun Demon Lord seized the opportunity, unleashing his natal magic weapon, the Blood Sun Demon Wheel, which spun rapidly and suddenly slashed down with terrifying blood energy.

Judging by its imposing presence, it is enough to crush a Nascent Soul cultivator.

But Chi Tian only extended his left hand, and in the violent energy collision, the blood aura shattered, and a pair of black gauntlets covered Chi Tian's hands.

He actually managed to forcibly seize the Blood Sun Demon Wheel, a top-grade fourth-tier magic weapon. With a stomp of his foot, the Crimson Heaven Demon Lord unleashed a crimson halo that resembled the sunlight emanating from the sun.

It brings not warmth, but endless, deadly blows.

Fifth-Order Divine Power - Crimson Heaven Demon Light!

The Yellow Springs River rapidly evaporated, forcibly turning into a red river. The Yellow Springs Master, who was hiding within it, was stripped of his authority and forced to leave, revealing his true form.

However, his natal magic weapon was captured and then exposed to the Crimson Heaven Demon Light.

The body of the scorching sun demon began to disintegrate, and pieces of flesh and blood, like slices of meat sliding into boiling water, instantly transformed into a path of gleaming white jade skulls.

The demonic energy emanating from his internal organs forcefully resisted further collapse, but he was also severely injured as a result. The Proud Sun Demon was not Wang Yu, and his physical vitality was not as strong.

Given his age, such severe injuries, without a healing elixir, could very well lead to his death from exhaustion of his life force.

The corrosive power of that demonic light continued to erode his physical body, almost foreshadowing his imminent demise.

The Crimson Heaven Demon Lord laughed wildly.

"How dare you ants compete with the bright moon? With a wave of my hand, I can reduce you all to ashes."

"—Arrogant!"

The Yellow Springs Temple Master was furious. The Crimson Heaven Demon Lord was a level stronger than he had expected. The foundation of the Refining Heaven Demon Sect was still too deep.

However, circumstances forced them to use their trump card.

"The Yellow Springs Ritual: I offer my own organs as a sacrifice, summoning the Great Demon of the Yellow Springs to descend upon the mortal world and aid me in vanquishing my enemies!"

This is an ancient ritual for performing rituals to invoke divine power.

It was eliminated long ago because it injured the enemy by 800 while losing 1,000 of its own. The Yellow Springs Temple Master used his own internal organs as a sacrifice. This kind of injury would affect the root of the problem, and ordinary recovery methods would be completely useless.

It is equivalent to permanent damage, while the Yellow Spring Demon is a strange creature that truly lives in the Yellow Spring River, similar to the invisible Heavenly Demon in the Heavenly Demon Realm, and its strength is extremely terrifying.

The turbid yellow water that reappeared transformed into a whirlpool in mid-air.

Emerging from within was a creature three meters tall at the shoulders, pale and emaciated, draped in a tattered black robe, and wearing a black demon mask above its lips.

This is the Great Demon of the Underworld, a true being from another realm!

As the summoner, the Lord of the Underworld can only guarantee that he will not be killed by it; he has no control over it whatsoever.

"You're crazy."

The Crimson Heaven Demon Lord swore, "The cultivation system of alien beings is different from that of humans, but it can still be roughly divided according to ranks. This is a peak fourth-rank Yellow Spring Great Demon."

In terms of raw strength, he is still inferior to him, but the strangeness of his abilities means that no Nascent Soul cultivator would want to face such a thing.

The pale demon licked its thin lips with its gray tongue, possessing a certain level of intelligence, and pointed its unusually long fingers toward the crimson sky.

—The Curse of Drowning in the Underworld!

True incantations and supernatural powers.

Chi Tian's face turned ashen, and even his Nascent Soul power couldn't suppress the urge to vomit. He immediately vomited out a large amount of Yellow Spring Water.

The equally corrosive power of the Yellow Springs directly invaded his internal organs, rapidly corroding his flesh and magic power, as if a lump of excrement had magically appeared in his stomach.

That nauseating feeling made him extremely emotionally unstable.

Rage! Rage! Rage!

He unleashed a divine power belonging to the Nascent Soul stage, which is an advanced form of Dharma Intent—the Power of Intent!

The true essence of supernatural powers and their meaning lies in comprehending all aspects of supernatural powers.

It combines with one's own beliefs, consciousness, and mind, causing them to evolve and ultimately give birth to the Dharma Intent that nourishes the Nascent Soul, strengthens the soul, and elevates its limits.

When the essence of Dharma is developed to its ultimate form, it becomes artistic conception.

Any method can be used to enhance it, causing its power to surge. One of the requirements for advancing to the Nascent Soul stage is to comprehend one's own artistic conception.

The Crimson Heaven Demon Lord possesses an artistic conception called the "Wrathful Blood Artifaction," which perfectly matches his current state of mind. In his rage, only blood can calm him down.

Drops of blood, imbued with the Crimson Heaven Demon Light, shot out in all directions like a torrential rain, originally intended to delay the Yellow Spring Demon.

The Yellow Springs Temple Master, who was trying to escape, had no choice but to use defensive magic treasures, supernatural powers, talismans, and other items to push his defenses to the extreme.

The Demon Lord of the Sun was severely injured and powerless, so he could only use the terrain to his advantage to defend himself.

Within the Longevity Medicine Treasury, a forbidden radiance suddenly burst forth.

The intense fluctuations in spiritual energy caused extensive damage, with the vermilion pillars collapsing and the stairs crumbling.

Despite his best efforts to dodge, the blazing sun was still struck by the blood droplets.

In the blink of an eye, the skeleton's body was completely stained red, and the rage infected him, causing him to suddenly roar to the sky.

He seemed like a madman who had lost his mind.

He even actively caught the blood droplets, which led to him being briefly controlled by Chi Tian and transformed into a bloodthirsty puppet by the influence of the artistic conception. Chi Tian had a thought.

The Blood Sun Demon Wheel returned to Jiao Yang's hands and suddenly launched an attack on the Yellow Springs Temple Master.

"Now!"

The abbot of Huangquan Temple, filled with ruthlessness, quickly unfolded his natal magic treasure, the [Huangquan Biluo Map], which depicted countless evil ghosts of Huangquan feeding in the river.

The food consisted mainly of severed limbs and the carcasses of strange beasts.

At this moment, the yellow and green energies transformed into phantom images of a giant snake and a giant tree, which suddenly overturned the entire Longevity Medicine Storehouse.

The intense cry echoed throughout the entire Dongjikyo.

What followed was a violent explosion, which almost completely destroyed the entire Longevity Medicine Vault, and also activated the deadly restriction hidden in the dark.

Since he couldn't find it, he searched every corner of the medicine storehouse.

This will also activate the restriction, and more importantly, destroy all the fifth-tier precious pills and spiritual herbs here. If he can't get them, neither can Chi Tian.

Everything's ruined, that's the end of it all.

The result was self-evident. The even more furious Chi Tian had just set off when he was stopped by the Great Demon of the Yellow Springs, whose evil and monstrous body seemed to be formless and intangible.

Ignoring the aftershocks of the explosion, his body turned into a drop of yellow liquid and directly merged into the body of the Crimson Heaven Demon Lord, causing a massive burst of curse power.

Chi Tian's aura weakened at a visible rate.

The power of the underworld erupted from his entire body, completely eroding his hair and robes, leaving him completely naked.

The blazing sun, controlled by the intent of rage and bloodlust, was even more unlucky.

Having endured multiple attacks, his aged body could no longer withstand them, from the loss of flesh and blood to the disintegration of his bones.

Completely powerless to resist, it became an adorable nascent soul, but in doing so, it escaped the control of the Crimson Heaven Demon Lord, and its eyes regained their clarity.

Realizing that his physical body had turned into dust, the Old Demon of the Proud Sun had a complicated expression. He covered his head with his nascent soul and ran outside.

The power of a Nascent Soul cultivator is too terrifying and domineering.

He, a dignified Nascent Soul cultivator at the Great Perfection stage, was no match for him. Moreover, once his intent was unleashed, he was directly controlled, making him an absolutely invincible force.

If one's resolve wavers, continuing the fight will only lead to more losses than gains.

Time to run...

If Jiaoyang was so terrified after being beaten that he abandoned everything and only wanted to continue living, then the Lord of the Yellow Springs had truly gained confidence. What kind of Nascent Soul Venerable was he? Nothing more than that.

Willing to risk everything, even to the point of pulling the emperor off his horse!

"So what if it's the Crimson Heaven? So what if it's a Venerable One? They'll all perish here under my scheme!!!"

His plan was strikingly similar to Wang Yu's previous scheme against Bishui.

They all wanted to weaken the opponent's power as much as possible with their individual abilities, and finally deliver a fatal blow with the help of the ultimate restriction of Dongjikyo.

Unfortunately, things would have been better if Wang Yu were there.

After all, the Yin-Yang Killing Array that covers the entire Eastern Capital is definitely more powerful than the ultimate killing restriction of the Longevity Medicine Vault, given the repeated coercion and the uncertainty of its attitude.

This led the other party to use special methods to escape.

Putting himself in Wang Yu's shoes, if he had a way to leave, he would definitely choose to flee.

Therefore, the plan has been temporarily changed.

This was the only way to try. What the Yellow Springs Temple Master didn't know was that the restrictions on the Longevity Medicine Treasury were personally set up by the first Human Emperor during his peak years.

After all, it involves the privacy of a great emperor.

Without the Panlong Ring, a supreme treasure of humankind, Wang Yu would never have discovered this secret, so... the destruction of the Longevity Medicine Treasury triggered the restriction.

It will exceed everyone's expectations.

…………

…………

In a corner of the palace, a fierce battle raged outside.

Wang Yu was climbing out of a dry well. The spatial transfer portal allowed him to leave the Longevity Medicine Storehouse directly, which was actually a good thing.

They discovered that the entire imperial palace and even the capital city of Dongji were shaking.

Wang Yu quickly floated up into the air, no more than half a meter off the ground, took out the Water Ancestor Token, and prepared to teleport to the underground river to leave.

At the same time, he was also reflecting on what he had gained in the Emperor's Secret Treasury.

Within that entire wall of inheritance, he multitasked, using his divine sense jade slips to inscribe the powerful supernatural abilities and secret techniques within, while simultaneously memorizing suitable inheritances that could be transformed into his own methods.

Those who are not suitable for him will not be discussed for the time being.

There are three supernatural powers and two secret techniques that can be cultivated. One of the supernatural powers, the "Immortal Spiritual Body," is a physical supernatural power of the body refiner lineage.

It is on par with the golden bodies of Buddhism and the Dharma bodies of Taoism.

One must cultivate to the peak of the fourth-order body refinement before one can begin this practice. This will allow one to integrate all the immortal spiritual bones and forge a truly immortal and indestructible body. In the future, breaking through to the fifth order will grant one an even more perfect and divine realm.

Its significance lies not only in being a physical supernatural power, but also in making his path of body refinement more perfect.

The second supernatural power, the Dragon Emperor Fist, is one of the strongest supernatural powers of the first Human Emperor. It should be noted that he also cultivated the path of body refinement, and this inheritance is also a physical supernatural power.

Its status is equivalent to the innate divine power of the physical body, which is very compatible with the true dragon spirit body of the first human emperor. And the body-refining technique that Wang Yu cultivates, "Yinming Demon Dragon Technique", may be very compatible with this inheritance.

More importantly, this thing is a top-grade fifth-tier divine ability.

Once mastered, it will replace the Ten Directions Frozen Demon Fist and become his new trump card.

The third supernatural power, the [Return to the Void Concealing Heaven Mantra], is one of the Void Daoist treasures, a fifth-order top-grade supernatural power that conceals itself in space and also has the effect of hiding heavenly secrets.

This supernatural power and secret technique, the Lock of Heaven, both originate from the legendary Void Dao Treasury, and the difficulty of cultivating spatial power is beyond doubt.

However, the Heavenly Lock that Wang Yu has condensed has exceeded eight thousand meters.

He had already mastered the basics of spatial power, and could sense and absorb spatial power even without the aid of a placement bar. Therefore, the threshold for cultivating this supernatural ability was very low for him.

Its value thus increases.

Most of the supernatural powers are difficult to cultivate at this stage, like the Ice Prison Demon Seal, unless Wang Yu is willing to use a large number of slots to accumulate them.

Perhaps it can be mastered within 60 years.

But it's really not that significant. Once he reaches the Nascent Soul stage, the time required for cultivation will be much shorter. The abundance of supernatural abilities means that Wang Yu will no longer need to worry about this in the future.

That's enough for him.

As for the two secret techniques, they are rather obscure and difficult to master, which is why Wang Yu made this choice on purpose.

The first secret technique, the "Zhou Tian Xing Chen Condensing Arrow Technique," was a secret technique he deliberately chose, intending to use it in conjunction with the Twelve Zodiac Signs of the Moon.

The Holy Bow among the Twelve Phases is extremely powerful and can combine all the power of extreme cold into a single arrow, making it his most frequently used offensive method.

The Moon is also one of the celestial bodies in the celestial sphere.

Combined with this secret technique, its power will be further enhanced. However, when practicing the Celestial Constellation Arrow Condensation Technique, one needs to sense the corresponding stars in order to absorb this kind of stellar power.

It was no challenge for him, after all, he possessed the Taiyin Nether Eyes and had absorbed and refined a piece of Taiyin Star Core, making his eyes as deep and serene as the bright moon in the sky.

It had long ago established a connection with the Moon.

The second secret technique, the [Thunder and Fire Celestial Pivot Secret Technique], is based on thunder and fire. It condenses a secret pattern in the center of the forehead, and once activated, it can cause a surge in strength.

It is a typical explosive secret technique. In terms of specific improvement details, in addition to the huge increase in basic values, it is also related to the power form of lightning and fire.

For example, Black Demon Lightning and Ice Dragon Flame mainly enhance the speed of the physical body. Combined with the Extreme Yin Dragon Body under the Heavenly Demon Transformation, even a great cultivator cannot outspeed him at his maximum speed.

However, based on their nature, the amplification of demonic energy and supernatural abilities is actually much greater. Of these gains, only the two secret techniques can be quickly converted into strength.

But now is not the time for spiritual practice.

Therefore, after taking stock of the situation, Wang Yu decisively activated the Water Ancestor's Decree and followed the route set up by the Earth Ancestor, leaving Dongjijing through the underground river.

A shimmering, aquamarine halo, like the starry sky.

Wang Yu's last glimpse of Dongjijing was filled with the purple aura and divine fire surging forth from the barrier.

—Purple flames burn the capital!

Its coverage area almost encompasses the entire Dongji Capital. Whether in the outer city, inner city, palace city, or imperial city, all cultivators staying in Dongji Capital will be burned by the fifth-order spiritual fire.

In the underground river, Wang Yu calmed his violently pounding heart.

Without looking back, he fled towards the city gates.
