Cultivating for a hundred lifetimes to ascension Chapter 1319 - 713: Primordial Yang Spirit Treasure?

"Wait? Could this be... Ghost Chi?"

"Incorrect, it is the True Spirit of a Magical Treasure!"

Zhao Sheng felt a surge of shock as two brilliant beams of Divine Light erupted from his pupils.

It had never crossed his mind that the true power lurking behind the Ghost God Sect was not a human Cultivator, but a Primordial Yang Spirit Treasure.

Furthermore, looking at the form of that True Spirit, it was nearly a mirror image of the Great Chi Jian belonging to the Ghost Chi Clan.

It was plain to see that this artifact was not a creation of the Ancient Human Race, but rather a supreme treasure meant to anchor the providence of the Ghost Chi Clan.

Zhao Sheng’s thoughts spun rapidly as he connected the dots. The Spring Birth Realm was separated from the Tianzhu Realm by a mere sixteen Constant Years. Given such proximity, it was logical for the Ghost Chi People to flourish and multiply within the Spring Birth Realm.

However, he was baffled by the state of this Primordial Yang Spirit Treasure; it seemed as though the True Spirit of the Magical Treasure had undergone some sort of abnormal mutation.

Its current condition reminded him of Emperor Tianjian and that strange True Spirit, Great Venerable Hao Yang, whom he had encountered in the Endless Corridor.

In that brief moment of Zhao Sheng’s preoccupation, the blood-hued humanoid detected his presence and launched a counterattack without hesitation.

Suddenly, a blood-red ray, as thick as a thumb, flashed from the crimson eye situated on its brow. The beam traveled with incredible velocity, and as it streaked toward Zhao Sheng, it began to widen and swell at a terrifying rate...

Within a heartbeat, the crimson ray had transformed into a colossal pillar connecting the heavens to the earth, pulverizing the void for tens of miles. The tip of the beam "bored through" the fabric of space-time, slamming into the Dark Sky with a force that sent it into the unknown depths of the cosmos.

The sheer power of this strike was immense; any Cultivator below the level of Returning to Void would have found it impossible to survive such a disaster.

Unfortunately for the entity, its adversary was a Half-Immortal of the Void.

Amidst a flicker of lightning, Zhao Sheng’s form manifested, gently touching down a hundred miles away from the blood-colored True Spirit. Above him, the dense Thunder Cloud churned violently, though the chaotic lightning bolts began to fade, showing signs of an impending end to the storm.

At that same moment, a ripple of destructive law suddenly manifested in the void, faintly suppressing a competing law fluctuation of "despair."

Sensing that its own law was being subtly stifled by its opponent, the True Spirit could not help but feel a sense of dread.

It rapidly performed a string of Spell Seals with its six arms, causing a massive, blood-colored spirit cloud to materialize and "blanket" the grounds of the mountain gate below.

A moment later, countless human Yin Souls drifted silently into the mist, bolstering its strength.

Simultaneously, shielded by the crimson fog, various Lifebound Spirit Banners hidden in the corners began to ascend, slowly being consumed by the blood cloud. The Lifebound Spirit Ghosts, who had only just tasted freedom, were instantly crushed by the weight of despair before being assimilated into the cloud.

Although this occurred in total silence, Zhao Sheng watched it all unfold without moving to intervene.

Suddenly, the blood-colored True Spirit spoke, its words forcing Zhao Sheng to reconsider the entity.

"I am the Red God Spirit Venerable. I do not know how my sect has slighted you. It is quite remarkable that a powerful cultivator of the Returning to Void realm would abandon his dignity to slaughter my entire Ghost God Sect. Have you dismissed the Heavenly Constitution of the Upper Realm? You must know that the indiscriminate massacre of humans in the Lower Realm is one of the nine unforgivable sins, certain to draw the wrath of heavenly retribution!"

"Oh? This creature actually remembers the Heavenly Constitution of the Spirit Realm with such precision?!" Zhao Sheng was inwardly stunned by this revelation, realizing that the True Spirit before him was truly out of the ordinary.

"Ha ha! An exile actually dares to lecture this old man on the Heavenly Constitution of the Spirit Realm! How truly absurd!"

Zhao Sheng nearly laughed out loud, his face twisted in a look of mockery: "The Ghost God Sect offers humans as sacrifices; countless innocent souls have been lost to you wicked demons over the ages. How could I permit such a cruel and inhuman sect to persist in this world?"

"You, a thing that is neither human nor ghost, should be hiding in the shadows to survive. Instead, you openly prey on humans. Your guilt is inexcusable!"

"Today, this old man shall act on behalf of the heavenly path to suppress you, you vile monstrosity!"

The moment those words were spoken, the void trembled with a roar as numerous Purple Cloud Thunder Balls materialized from nothingness, falling like a heavy rain. As they descended, the void was shattered inch by inch, creating a network of spatial rifts.

Facing this terrifying assault, the Red God Spirit Venerable gave a contemptuous sneer. Its eyes blazed with fire, causing the blood cloud covering the ground to surge upward, acting like a tidal wave to swallow the falling Purple Cloud Thunder Balls.

In an instant, the blood cloud was punctured by large "voids," becoming increasingly tattered as if it might dissolve into smoke at any moment.

The law of despair is born from the will of sentient beings; though it is a branch of the Taoist Laws, it is a Postnatal Tao and cannot compare to the Innate Destruction Dao.

Furthermore, thunder represents the ultimate yang power in the world, making it the natural bane of all that is dark and foul!

Since the Red Chi Spirit Banner was a sinister Primordial Yang Spirit Treasure, encountering Zhao Sheng today was truly a meeting with its predestined nemesis.

Each explosion of a Purple Cloud Divine Thunder further eroded the hidden blood cloud, making it more unstable!

Sensing the tide turning against it, the Red God Spirit Venerable frantically shook the Divine Banner, emitting a vast crimson light to reinforce the cloud barrier above.

At the same time, the Red God Spirit Venerable shouted in fury, "Stop... you are being completely unreasonable! I swear on my pride that I have never personally killed a single human; if I had, how could the Heavenly Dao of this world permit my existence! You... you had better stop, or we shall both perish together."

"You might not have struck the blow, but millions have died because of you! Do you think this old man does not understand the tale of the Farmer and his livestock?"
