Chapter 75: The Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground
Roar!
In the vast skies, a White Tiger let out a roar of resentment as it exploded into pieces.
Following which, a slim figure was strewn out afar. Her face was ghastly white, and tiny threads of blood flowed down from the corners of her mouth.
That’s right; this person was none other than Zhang Yunxi, who had left the Myriad Spirit Garden previously in a hurry.
After leaving a copy of all the three heritage skillsets to Shen Tian, Zhang Yunxi had attempted to rush back as quickly as she could.
Nonetheless, those with ulterior motives still caught up to her.
After that peculiar scene in the sky that fateful night, almost everyone had known that this meant some exotic treasure had been discovered.
And it was at that moment people had seen the Divine Firmament’s Saintess, Zhang Yunxi, hurrying back to her sect—from exactly where the peculiar scene was located.
This was too suspicious for words. Hence, those opportunistic people observing from the shadows had decided to take matters into their hands.
After all, imagine a treasure that even the Divine Firmament’s Saintess must hide—just how precious and tempting would that be?
As such, all the top-notch expert cultivators who had been roaming around the Country of Fire’s vicinity had started pursuing her.
Among them, the weakest cultivator would have reached the peak of the Golden Core stage, and all possessed certain special items that could potentially hurt those at the Nascent Soul stage.
After all, the majority of those in pursuit were powerful Supremacies who had reached the Nascent Soul stage.
If not for the fact that they possessed such items, how would they dare to pursue the Saintess together with so many Nascent Soul cultivators?
They would just be courting death!
“She’s got something there. Imagine being able to summon out the White Tiger avatar.”
“No wonder she’s ranked at the 9th position of all the cultivators from the Eastern Wilderness who have reached Golden Core stage.”
“No matter what, she’s just a mere Golden Core cultivator. It’s her luck to have met us!”
All the Supremacies levitated arrogantly in the sky while emitting terrible vibes.
They had followed Zhang Yunxi relentlessly for one full day and night before they were able to finally surround her.
To them, no matter how talented she was, Zhang Yunxi was still just a cultivator at the Golden Core Qi Refinement stage.
She would never be able to resist against the attacks of 10 or more Nascent Soul cultivators at the same time.
Now that they managed to circle her, and they were certain that precious treasure was within their reach, they began announcing in a pretentious manner.
“Saintess Yunxi, none of us have any intentions of becoming enemies with your Divine Firmament Sacred Ground. We just want to witness the treasure you are hiding from us.
“As long as you let us take a look at the treasure, we promise that we will not hurt you.
“You will be able to leave this place unharmed.”
A Supremacy, who was at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, hid her figure within black fog to prevent others from identifying her.
It was a crime to pursue the Divine Firmament’s Saintess. No one would dare to commit such a crime openly.
Even if one had attained the peak of the Nascent Soul stage and was just a step away from attaining the Soul Formation stage, they would only face death if the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground discovered they had tried to harm their Saintess.
One must always remember that the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground was still home to several Heavenly Venerables, who had reached the Soul Formation stage.
While staring at all the greedy Nascent Soul cultivators who would, in their normal forms, be highly-respected seniors, Zhang Yunxi couldn’t help but chide in a sarcastic tone. “All you scoundrels who were too shameless to show your faces, you are despicable indeed.
“Imagining those of you who are at the Nascent Soul stage attacking me, a mere Golden Core cultivator!
“Don’t any of you dare to come out and fight fairly with me, one on one?”
Zhang Yunxi staggered to stand up straight, and the White Tiger Clear Light Armor Suit shone brightly despite being smeared with blood.
The once-smashed White Tiger avatar was summoned out again, lying in wait behind her back.
At that moment, Zhang Yunxi looked like a Goddess of War, ready to show her all to the cowardly opportunists!
“Haha, fancy a young girl at the Golden Core stage saying that. That’s plainly ridiculous.”
Someone spoke out from among all the Nascent Soul Supremacies, and the voice sounded like an old lady.
She sneered and commented, “You are too audacious for your own good!”
Zhang Yunxi looked coldly at the direction of the voice while announcing, “Old hag, it’s you then!”
Following which, the White Tiger behind her let out a roar.
Her body was transformed into a shaft of silver light as she rushed toward the old lady. Shimmering wisps of her Spirit Qi burnt at the top of her skin and reflected bright lights off her White Tiger Clear Light Armor Suit.
Zhang Yunxi had activated the mystic arts she had learned at the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, and she was ready to put in her all!
At her glabella, a sparkling golden lightning mark appeared—following which, the vibes given off by this Saintess blasted out!
One hit was all it took for her to break through the black fog!
The tiger roared, while other beasts quivered and kept silent in fear!
Roar!
Roar!
Roar!
“No, this cannot be! How can a Golden Core cultivator be so powerful!?”
Before the black fog got blasted apart by the shiny lightning, the old lady who was hiding among it let out a desperate scream. Then, the black fog dissipated into the vast emptiness.
Zhang Yunxi started using the sacred grounds’ mystic arts to tear apart the old lady’s body.
A shimmering Nascent Soul shot out of the old lady’s body, just when that body was completely destroyed!
This was the old lady’s soul. She wanted to escape, lie low, and then seek opportunities to possess other people so that she could be reborn in another’s body.
Yet, how would Zhang Yunxi give her the chance to do so?
A strip of purplish-red lightning in the shape of a Crimson Phoenix burst out from Zhang Yunxi’s fingers.
That was the Crimson Phoenix III Divine Lightning, and it wrapped itself around the old lady’s Nascent Soul.
The old lady’s Nascent Soul let out a piercing cry of pain as it was being burnt in flames. Soon, she succumbed to Zhang Yunxi’s prowess in a resentful but deserving fashion.
Her soul was being vanquished!
During this period of time, none of the experts who circled Zhang Yunxi bothered to help the old lady at all.
The reason was simple—all these people weren’t from the same force. They were all gleeful to witness Zhang Yunxi exerting herself to a maximum—because that would mean they could now easily overcome any further resistance from her.
At this stage, every one of them could turn enemies with the person standing beside them in order to get hold of the esteemed treasure.
To them, it was all the better that Zhang Yunxi used her powers to kill one of them, as they would face one less opponent. They even hoped that she could kill more of the other fellows standing there.
Ha, all these people are contemptible scumbags who are up to no good!
Zhang Yunxi let out a cold laugh and fished out a talisman secretly.
As the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s Saintess, she would, of course, have means to save her life.
This Divine Firmament Speed Movement Talisman could allow her to transform into lightning and transport herself to tens of kilometers away in a flash.
Now that the old lady was dead, there was finally a small gap within the circle of pursuers.
Before anyone could react, Zhang Yunxi crushed the Divine Firmament Speed Movement Talisman and shot out in a flash of lightning!
“Argh, stop her!”
That group of Supremacies sensed something wrong, and hurriedly tried to block her tracks.
However, since they did not want to reveal their identities, they daren’t use their most signature skills.
As such, even though several of them simultaneously attacked Zhang Yunxi, none of them managed to stop her. They could only watch anxiously as she escaped from their clutches!
At that moment, a huge crack appeared in the vast, empty sky.
A gigantic golden figure shot out of the crack and pounced at Zhang Yunxi!
It was a humongous golden-winged eagle, and yellowish-golden feathers covered its entire body, making it look like a figure carved out of gold.
A cold, sharp light flashed past its irises, and its razor-sharp claws looked deformed as it swooped down from the skies. Both its wings were able to reach almost ten plus meters apart when they were stretched out, such that they seemed to cover the entire sky!
One could see that this was a powerful Demon King!
In the next second, it shot out about tens of kilometers apart and blocked Zhang Yunxi in her path. Others could only catch glimpses of its golden wings in a flurry.
“What a bunch of good-for-nothings. You can’t even catch a young girl at the Golden Core stage! This fortuitous opportunity that the girl has on her will be mine!”
The golden-winged eagle actually spoke human words, shocking everyone at the scene.
It let out a scoff and reached out for Zhang Yunxi, ripping through the cold air.
What!? I had to encounter a demon that has reached the Soul Formation stage, the Great Golden-Winged Eagle King now?!
When looking at the Demon King, desperation was written all over Zhang Yunxi’s eyes.
No matter how talented she was, she could never battle and overcome someone at the Soul Formation stage. There was too wide a gap between the prowess of a cultivator at the Golden Core stage and those at the Soul Formation stage!
Is it really destined that I should die here?
At that moment, the image of Shen Tian flashed past her mind.
It seems like I can only repay you in my next lifetime, Young Master Shen!
Just when Zhang Yunxi decided to give up and wait for her death, the claws of the Great Golden-Winged Eagle were blocked.
An azure lotus shot out of the sky and sheltered Zhang Yunxi from the potential attack.
This azure lotus was blooming into its 7th stage, and its flower petals were emitting Dharmic runes.
It wrapped Zhang Yunxi within its petals, and for a moment, time seemed to freeze.
However sharp the Great Golden-Winged Eagle’s claws might be, it was useless at ripping the flower apart.
A smile of relief was seen on Zhang Yunxi’s face, and she shouted, “Martial Uncle Azure Lotus!”
