Chapter 248: Seed Curse, Burning Heart Sword
“Head to the Suppressing Fortune Domain at once.”
Feeling the trace of Primordial Lord Qingfu\'s aura within the divine light, the woman dressed in a snow-white gown became even more puzzled. Fortune Suppressing Domain belonged to Primordial Lord Qingfu, one of the three Realm Masters of the Yuluo Realm. She had just left the Suppressing Fortune Domain the day before, so why had her master suddenly summoned her back today?
Despite her doubts, Zhu Yingyue did not delay. Beneath her, a silver-white sword projection emerged with a burst of countless, brilliant silver motes of light, and she tore through the air and departed.
In the Yuluo Realm, at the Suppressing Fortune Domain…
Zhu Yingyue, riding on the silver-white sword light, slowly landed under the ancient apricot spirit tree at the edge of the floating island, but she didn’t see anyone in the Suppressing Fortune Domain. A sense of foreboding gradually rose from the depths of her spiritual perception.
Suppressing Fortune Domain was a vast floating island normally bustling with visitors. Even Primordial Lords would come to visit from time to time. However, the abnormal quietness here today, coupled with the growing sense of unease in Zhu Yingyue’s spiritual perception, caused her to frown deeply.
“This divine light essence is not from Master! If someone at the half-step Clone Avatar stage wished to branch off their Primordial Spirit to fully break through into the Clone Avatar stage, there would be no room for even the slightest error. Master should be trying to break through in the Pure Spirit Ocean of the Shangqing Spiritual World right now, so why would he suddenly send a command to summon me here?”
Having thought of this key point, Zhu Yingyue was still unable to unravel the reason for this situation. This place was the Yuluo Realm, and the Yuluo Realm was one of the core Secret Realms within the Shangqing Sacred Sect, housing dozens of Primordial Lords\' Domains. She was the youngest disciple of Realm Master Qingfu. How could someone dare to falsely pass down a decree in the name of the Realm Master?
Standing under the ancient apricot spirit tree for a while, Zhu Yingyue suppressed the doubts in her heart and was about to head towards Spirit Subduing Hall at the center of the Domain.
"Junior Martial Sister Zhu, you had once greeted me upon my return under this very apricot tree."
At that moment, a familiar male voice reached Zhu Yingyue\'s ears.
The woman turned her head to see Zhang Yangui, dressed in a black Daoist robe, looking at her intently with eyes containing incredibly complex emotions.
"Today, yet again beside this apricot tree, I ask Sister Zhu to help me break through this tribulation!"
After uttering those words, Zhang Yangui concealed all of the emotions in his eyes, leaving only an icy coldness.
Deafening peals of ear-splitting thunder suddenly exploded out!
Above the entire Suppressing Fortune Domain, countless conflagrations of blazing thunderflame rose up, blanketing the vast floating island in their glow. Countless bolts of purple thunder, bursting with fiery red flames, bombarding Zhu Yingyue!
“Master…”
Zhu Yingyue\'s mind whirled with thoughts, her eyes filled with disbelief as she unleashed her peak Divine Core stage cultivation base to its fullest. Several Magic Treasures appeared in front of her as she desperately tried to resist the impending thunder and fire.
This was the Void Thunderflame Yao Refining Array!
Zhang Yangui, observing the woman\'s shocked, despairing, and confused expression, closed his cold eyes slightly and sighed lightly, “My respects to Mountain Master Red Lotus for this effort.”
“It\'s nothing. Primordial Lord Qingfu asked for my help before heading to the Pure Spirit Ocean, so it\'s only right for me to respond.”
A man of exquisite beauty appeared. It was none other than Red Lotus Primordial Lord, Mountain Master of the Shangqing Mountain Range!
With an offhand glance at Zhu Yingyue, who was still struggling within the Void Thunderflame Yao Refining Array, Red Lotus Primordial Lord waved his sleeve. A violet profound light pierced through the great array, enveloping Zhu Yingyue.
"Seed Curse: Grafting Flowers on the Tree."
Several Primordial Spirit stage Lords appeared one after another above the Suppressing Fortune Domain, looking at the extremely beautiful woman in the white gown within the Void Thunderflame Yao Refining Array with varying expressions.
“This woman has considerable potential. As a direct disciple of Realm Master Qingfu, she broke through to the Divine Core stage in such a short time. Had it not been for this incident, she might have had a chance at reaching the Primordial Spirit stage,” A Primordial Spirit stage Lord in green robe said quietly, seemingly regretful about Zhu Yingyue\'s situation.
“But in the end, this woman is not an unparalleled genius. Compared to a complete Profound Treasure, the difference is like that of clouds and mud.”
Zhu Yingyue, with her keen mind, had already nearly figured out the particulars of what was happening. Her white gown fluttered amidst the endless thunder and fire, but under the erosion of the violet light, her figure became increasingly blurry. She laughed softly in self-derision, “When I first entered Master\'s tutelage, this Void Thunderflame Yao Refining Array was taught to me by Master himself. Yet, I never thought that today I would become the ‘yao’ to be refined.”
Red Lotus Primordial Lord paid no attention to Zhu Yingyue. He simply directed that violet divine light towards Zhang Yangui and instructed, "Burning Heart, enter the array."
After Zhang Yangui, Burning Heart Sacred Son, was engulfed by the violet light, he immediately rode a profound light and flew into the Void Thunderflame Yao Refining Array without further ado.
"Take the sword,” Red Lotus Primordial Lord said softly.
The Primordial Spirit stage Lords, with solemn expressions, followed Red Lotus Primordial Lord in casting divine lights representing the Seed Curse into the Void Thunderflame Yao Refining Array. The entire Suppressing Fortune Domain seemed to turn into a giant ball of violet flame, its radiant brilliance even casting glows upon the distant barriers of the Yuluo Realm.
In the Venus Ruins Domain adjacent to the Fortune Suppressing Domain…
Realm Master Kunxu watched the unbelievably large violet fireball from afar, and the emerging violet sword projection within it. He sighed and said, “Qingfu, if you can break through to the Clone Avatar stage and also grab ahold of this peak Profound Treasure, you will indeed have surpassed me by a step.”
Every Profound Treasure was a Dao-protecting treasure of the highest order. It could only be refined by beings of the Divine Sea stage using the wellspring of their own true spirit, along with the aid of the power of heaven and earth.
However, even with how powerful Divine Sea stage beings were, it wasn’t possible for them to endlessly refine Profound Treasures. The true source of the Divine Sea stage being’s true spirit was needed for the refinement, which couldn’t be recovered or replaced afterwards. Therefore, even though many powerful sects had produced Divine Sea stage beings, it was very rare for Profound Treasures to be passed down.
Even within the long-standing Shangqing Sacred Sect, there were less than twenty Profound Treasures.
Aside from the Clone Avatar stage Greater Lords, those at the Primordial Spirit stage who possessed Profound Treasures were almost all unparalleled geniuses with the potential to reach the Clone Avatar stage, and were highly valued by the sect.
It was also for this reason that when Spirit Controlling Primordial Lord guessed that Xu Disheng\'s Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda was a Profound Treasure, he made such a desperate move in the Luminous Cloud Abyss to try and brazenly seize him. A Profound Treasure was simply far too precious.
As for the Burning Heart Sword that had been dormant within Zhang Yangui for decades, it was top notch, even among Profound Treasures!
Even when compared to the Mirror Bodhi, the paramount Dao-protecting treasure that Xu Disheng possessed, it was only slightly inferior.
