Chapter 473: Chapter 471: Spirit Beast Divine Technique? Four Divine Ancient Seals, Vermilion Bird Seal Reappears! Yinmang Mountain Collapses!

Xiao Zheng paid no mind to those insignificant traces of backlash; he simply couldn’t figure it out.

His Opening Heaven Palm had once been able to suppress and kill even cultivators of the same realm.

Yet now, dealing with a youngster several realms beneath him... it had actually been violently shattered by him?!

"That Finger Technique of yours... has something to it."

Staring at the silver light scattering in the heavens, Xiao Zheng shook his head. "It’s just a pity that the deep Source Qi I’ve accumulated over several hundred years of cultivation is far from something you can compare to."

"As it happens, I also know a Divine Technique..."

"To force me to use a Divine Technique—though you were born humble, it’s enough for you to be proud."

As his voice fell, Xiao Zheng’s somewhat pale face suddenly became serious for the first time.

With his Opening Heaven Palm broken, Xiao Zheng was a bit surprised, but he could also see that the Divine Technique in this young man’s hand seemed out of the ordinary.

With such a bizarre, unconventional Finger Technique Divine Techniques, it truly exceeded Xiao Zheng’s expectations.

So in an instant, Source Qi around Xiao Zheng formed walls of wind all over his body, actually condensing something at high speed.

A cyan bird, as if truly carrying a trace of Spirituality, several meters long, floated into view before Xiao Zheng.

In those eyes of the giant cyan bird, compared to the fog-dragon of pure instinct just now, there was now an extra hint of Spirituality bestowed by the Divine Technique!

Its gaze fell upon the tiny Human Race below, upon Lu Ye, and there was actually a trace of contempt within.

Immediately, a blade of wind shot out from the cyan bird’s wings, slashing toward Lu Ye standing atop the mountain in an instant.

Chi chi chi!

The air along its path, because of the extreme speed, let out a harsh, slicing-everything "chi chi chi" sound.

Watching this scene, Lu Ye’s heart tightened.

What a powerful Divine Technique—among Lower Grade Divine Techniques, this should count as the cream of the crop.

After the Illusory Destruction Yin Yang Finger shattered the Opening Heaven Palm, it still retained considerable power; Lu Yi immediately manipulated the Primordial Energy Finger Seal and once more pointed toward the cyan-bird Divine Technique wind blade.

But in the scene where nearly half of its power had already been worn away, the Yin Yang Finger, under the assault of the equally Lower Grade Divine Techniques Divine Technique Blue Bird, exploded along with it!

Bang bang bang!

A hundred meters away, Youluo watched the ripples spreading across the barrier she supported and couldn’t help showing a trace of shock.

She was already over a hundred meters away, and this was the Anti-Gold Grandmaster’s Primordial Energy protective barrier.

Yet even the backlash it was bearing at the moment was so intense; didn’t that mean that within fifty meters, even an Anti-Gold Grandmaster would struggle to endure the residual shockwaves?!

"No, Youluo also has to quickly grind away the Sealing Power and return to Progressive Stage; otherwise, I’ll get further and further away from my ancestral husband!"

If that happened, it would be inconvenient to do anything later!

In that instant, Youluo felt that she couldn’t afford to slack off so much anymore.

"Your Finger Technique is indeed profound—after breaking my Opening Heaven Palm, you were actually able to take one strike from my Divine Technique Blue Bird."

Xiao Zheng said, "If you had been born in the Hidden Spirit Land, you might truly have had a chance to touch that Celestial Realm within a hundred years."

As his voice fell, Xiao Zheng’s expression took on a hint of pity; with a sudden wave of his hand...

The Divine Technique Blue Bird cried out, still carrying that trace of disdain, and beat its wings, swooping to slaughter Lu Ye!

At the same time, Lu Ye’s expression turned strange as he watched that cyan bird.

A Spirit Beast–type Divine Technique, huh...

As it happens, he also knew one.

A strange seal suddenly formed in Lu Ye’s hands in an instant.

Within several dozen meters around them, the air suddenly became somewhat scorching...

That cyan bird, which had spread its wings and lunged at Lu Ye from more than ten meters away, its eyes originally full of thick disdain...

Now held a faint trace of doubt.

It couldn’t help but slow down.

Within the Celestial Realm, it seemed as though a aura that stirred its fear was diffusing.

"Blue Bird, what are you waiting for?"

Spirit Beast–type Divine Techniques, under normal circumstances, were stronger than ordinary Divine Techniques.

But from the moment it was successfully cultivated and a Spirit Beast phantom manifested, it also gained a measure of Divine Technique Spirituality.

Compared to dead, lifeless Divine Techniques, it might not be as perfectly controlled as one’s own arm.

Right now Xiao Zheng was frowning as he watched the Blue Bird drastically slow its speed, as though it suddenly didn’t want to attack.

In the next moment, the Divine Technique Blue Bird’s eyes turned sharp. It did not believe that anything truly terrifying existed on that young Human Race’s body!

With a cry, the Blue Bird held nothing back and shot forward in a flash!

Less than ten meters of distance vanished in the blink of an eye as it arrived before Lu Ye.

The Blue Bird swiped out with a claw, and the space in front of it suddenly let out a piercing detonation!

Chi!

Three incomparably savage claw shadows completely enveloped Lu Ye.

Just then, in the void before Lu Ye, a claw wreathed in faint crimson flames appeared...

The three terrifying claw shadows suddenly seemed to be confiscated and vanished without a trace.

"Li!"

A cry far clearer and more pleasant than the Blue Bird’s earlier call spread from the space in front of Lu Ye.

The massive body of that cyan bird, which held a trace of Spirituality... began to tremble violently.

As if it had heard the most terrifying sound in the world.

Immediately after, a scene occurred that even Xiao Zheng, an old cultivator who had lived for several hundred years, had never seen before.

His Divine Technique Blue Bird actually turned tail and tried to flee!

Xiao Zheng: "?!!"

All around them, the cultivators who had withdrawn even farther to watch were likewise plunged into boundless shock.

Before Lu Ye, there was slowly emerging... a fire-red bird that seemed to have walked out from some primordial land.

Within those flame-burning eyes, an undisguised aura of icy arrogance flowed.

Looking at the Blue Bird that was terrified to the extreme and desperate to escape, the fire-red Divine Bird gracefully fanned its wings and, in the space of a blink, caught up.

Then, that Divine Technique Blue Bird which moments ago had been so high and mighty was actually torn to shreds with effortless ease! 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Streams of cyan light scattered like a rain of radiance.

The bond between a Spirit Beast–type Divine Technique and its master was far tighter.

At the very instant the Divine Technique Blue Bird was utterly destroyed, Xiao Zheng’s face suddenly changed and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

And after effortlessly shredding the Blue Bird, that fire-red Divine Bird phantom did not stop.

Its eyes, glowing with divine flame, immediately locked onto Xiao Zheng.

Xiao Zheng, his aura greatly weakened, pupils contracted and immediately tried to leave.

This Divine Bird gave him a feeling that it could not be resisted...

"This boy... cannot be faced head-on. I must bring people to besiege him!"

In an instant, Xiao Zheng shuttled through the void, his figure shooting out over a thousand meters, vanishing at the cliff edge atop the mountain.

At this moment, Xiao Zheng had none of his former composure and confidence.

But the fire-red Divine Bird phantom merely glanced in the direction Xiao Zheng fled, then turned to glance back at Lu Ye, divine fire swirling in those cold, aloof eyes.

In the next moment, it spread its wings, leaving behind a blindingly gorgeous streak of red in the heavens.

And chased after the fleeing Elder of the Cyan Hidden Sect!
