Slaying Demons: Starting with Upgrading my Calligraphy-Chapter 557 - 483: Five Xingshan!
Boom!
The majestic Five Elements Mountain stood tall above the void, suppressing the realms in all directions, sweeping through all corners of the earth.
Ancient stars carrying boundless power surged upwards against the flow, shaking the Space-Bounding, smashing everything in their path, with space erupting continuously, threatening to bury all heavens here!
Thud!
The entire inch of mountain and river trembled without cease, the Little Ginseng Fruit looked pained, and the glazed jade orb symbolizing this small world was burning hot, filled with cracks and showing signs of breaking.
"Help him, otherwise this small world can’t withstand the impact of their confrontation."
Noticing the anomaly of the Little Ginseng Fruit, Liu Tai stepped forward, extended his hand to its palm, and infused pure Dao Yuan into its body.
Seeing this, the Shen Brothers also came over and mimicked him.
With the assistance of Liu Tai and the Shen Brothers, the Little Ginseng Fruit’s complexion improved, and the inch of mountain and river that was about to shatter stabilized once again.
"I wonder who will emerge victorious between the two..."
Once the Little Ginseng Fruit was stable, Liu Tai raised his eyes to the blazing sea of light above, which had become unclear.
Twenty-five ancient stars unleashed endless brilliant light, transforming into a resplendent starry sky, akin to an ancient divine realm enveloping Qi Xiu, intending to crush him alive.
Qi Xiu’s vanished figure slowly emerged from the peak of the Five Elements Mountain. He raised a finger, and the previously dormant mountain suddenly revived, its overwhelming ancient aura shaking and trembling the entire starry sky.
Divine Mountain in the palm!
Slowly opening his palm, Qi Xiu softly chanted ancient, esoteric scriptures and spells, while the mountain sourced from primordial times beneath him continued to expand, seemingly wanting to encapsulate heaven and earth between its peaks.
In a trance, the entire Divine Mountain stood tall, reaching the sky and earth.
The expansive starry domain transformed by Zhao Qianqiu’s Great Five Elements Annihilation Heavenly Wheel was unconsciously enveloped among the mountains.
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Eyes trembling, Zhao Qianqiu’s temples were drenched with sweat, constantly shifting, searching for Qi Xiu’s whereabouts:
"Come out, hiding like a coward, show yourself to me!"
But at that moment, a pair of indifferent, calm eyes suddenly appeared above the Sky Dome, resembling two suns, gazing unhurriedly at Zhao Qianqiu.
"Hiding? Haven’t I always been right before you?"
Looking up at Qi Xiu’s face above the sky, Zhao Qianqiu’s eyes were shocked.
How he became so enormous, even the Law of Heaven and Earth couldn’t be so grand.
But in the next second, Zhao Qianqiu immediately realized.
"No, it’s not that he became bigger, but that I... became smaller!"
Qi Xiu held the Five Elements Mountain in his palm, and amid the mountain’s central valley, Zhao Qianqiu, as small as an ant, was hysterically flailing and crashing around like a headless fly within the Five Elements Mountain.
Regardless of all the methods he tried.
This Five Elements Mountain seemed endless, and he couldn’t escape it.
Exerting every means he could employ, yet finding himself still trapped within the Five Elements Mountain, Zhao Qianqiu’s face turned ashen.
At this moment!
He was truly defeated.
"But... you won’t survive either."
With a grim smile emerging upon his gray face, Zhao Qianqiu slowly looked up at Qi Xiu.
"I admit, the Great Five Elements Path indeed favors you more, but so what? The Nine-Marks Dao Soldier you summoned by burning your essence can’t kill me either; it can only trap me here.
And you, once the power you exchanged for by burning your essence runs out, will mark your death.
At that time, can those few people outside stop me?"
Listening to Zhao Qianqiu’s words filled with deep hatred, Qi Xiu faintly smiled:
"Do you truly think I would wager my life against you for victory or defeat?"
"What ..."
His expression froze, and an ill omen suddenly arose in Zhao Qianqiu’s heart.
In the next moment!
From Qi Xiu’s chest, a jade-colored light burst forth, transforming into a Jade Dragon in the void, radiating rich life energy, akin to the manifestation of the original Great Path, its body crystalline, as if carved from the purest jade!
Jade Dragon Elixir!
Flying from Qi Xiu’s body, the Jade Dragon Elixir slowly opened its massive dragon mouth, expelling exceedingly pure jade-colored essence akin to a rainbow from its mouth.
These essences were like brilliant rainbows, or the first ray of dawn cast by the rising morning sun.
The essence brimming with endless mystery and vibrant vitality formed a continuously moving, weaving light band in the air, gathering into a vast, crystalline flow.
Qi Xiu drifted as a thin cloud in mid-air, and with the life-filled, energetic essence injected into his body, his originally spectral figure rapidly became concrete and clear to the naked eye.
Instantly, he returned to peak condition, his consumed essence replenished, even further enhanced.
In Zhao Qianqiu’s incredulous gaze, Qi Xiu lightly gestured, bringing the weary Jade Dragon flying back into his hand, re-integrating it into his body.
Jade Dragon Elixir!
This Great Elixir’s potency was almost the same as the original Life-Creation Pill, just slightly better.
But it possessed an attribute deemed as defying the heavens!
Namely, compared to the Life-Creation Pill, which could only be consumed once.
The Jade Dragon Elixir can be used indefinitely!
Only after each use does it fall into a Period of Weakness, requiring replenishment before reuse.
But even with the limitation of a cool-down period.
This Jade Dragon Elixir was indeed a heaven-defying item, equivalent to giving Qi Xiu a chance to reset.
"Does Mr. Zhao have anything more to say?"
Overlooking Zhao Qianqiu enclosed within the Five Elements Mountain, Qi Xiu calmly spoke.
After a moment, Zhao Qianqiu snorted with a laugh, the fierce unwillingness, vengeful hatred slowly dissipating from his face, reverting back to the noble Prince he once was.
"Talent, methods, fortune, treasures, you surpass in all, my defeat is unwilling."
Seemingly accepting his destiny, Zhao Qianqiu flicked his sleeve and looked at Qi Xiu:
"Although defeated, I must say something.
Your mind is so deep, your fortune so profound, you occupy the heavenly secrets with no flaw exposed.
Such a person, the heavens will not tolerate you.
You will not live long."
Watching Zhao Qianqiu who serenely spoke these words, Qi Xiu chuckled with interest:
"Is this Mr. Zhao’s prophecy for me?"
"Whatever it is doesn’t matter anymore, victor or vanquished, I concede. Make your move."
At this point, Zhao Qianqiu had come to terms with everything.
He had once lost before, a failure costing him almost everything, yet he managed to reclaim what was lost and become stronger with unmatched tenacity and dedication.
And today, he lost again.
But this time, seemingly without a chance for another comeback.
Ah, Shenxiao Sect... truly the nemesis of this Prince...
Sighing lightly, a shadow loomed over Zhao Qianqiu’s head, completely engulfing him. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
