The Immortal Seeker: Legend of Bronze Mirror-Chapter 459 - 201: Divine Pill Appears, Ten Thousand Demons Attack (Please Subscribe)

Xu Qing swiftly tossed the Saint’s Handwritten Manuscript into the Alchemy Well, where under the burning flames, the text on the bamboo slips floated up and transformed into the size of a fight.%0D%0AAt the moment of Dan Formation, various demons, right now, were all dissolved by the mighty masculine energy produced by the burning Manuscript.%0D%0AHowever, at the moment when Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill was about to be ready, a terrifying dragon chant emerged from inside the Alchemy Well.%0D%0A"The Heavenly Master, this is a residual True Dragon spirit seeking rebirth through the Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill," declared Xiong Chan.%0D%0AIt turned out that one of the main ingredients for the Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill was Dragon Bone; now that the Divine Pill was nearly completed, this remnant spirit in the Dragon Bone wanted to seize the opportunity to reincarnate.%0D%0AEven the mighty masculine power of Saint’s Handwritten Manuscript could not annihilate the residual True Dragon spirit within.%0D%0A"I’ll handle it!" The Old Heavenly Master approached the Alchemy Well and began reciting scriptures, specifically the texts from Five Thunders True Skill; under his recitation, multiple sounds of Thunder emerged, crashing into the Alchemy Well.%0D%0A"Thunder Sound takes shape, as if real objects," admired Xu Qing.%0D%0AContinuous explosions were heard from the Alchemy Well, yet there was no substantial explosive force.%0D%0AXu Qing understood that these were Thunder aimed at Divine Soul thoughts.%0D%0AExactly because of this, it would not destroy the soon-to-emerge Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill.%0D%0AOnce the Old Heavenly Master had swept away the residual True Dragon spirit, Xu Qing saw three streaks of golden light fly out from the well, all in the form of young dragons, seemingly preparing to rush to the heavens.%0D%0AXu Qing immediately stepped forward and caught one streak of golden light.%0D%0AHe immediately felt an unbearable searing heat.%0D%0AWith his level of Kung Fu, even his hand was burned till the flesh split open.%0D%0AMore terrifyingly, this heat attempted to ignite his Divine Soul. However, protected by the Purple Emperor Dragon Armor, not only did the scorching heat not harm Xu Qing’s Divine Soul, it was absorbed by the armor, thereby enhancing it slightly.%0D%0AThis scorching heat emanated from the Dan fire at the birth of Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill.%0D%0AXu Qing forcefully extinguished the Dan fire, took out a Jade Bottle to store the Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill, and then placed it into the Qiankun Bag.%0D%0AAt this moment, Xiong Chan and the Old Heavenly Master had already subdued the Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill, both wearing joyful expressions.%0D%0AFor Xiong Chan especially, the Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill would enable him to take a crucial step forward—an essential leap towards Transcendence that would empower him to become a force capable of shaking the world.%0D%0AThe Old Heavenly Master, however, remained expressionless; he turned his gaze towards the back mountain of Dragon Tiger Mountain, where not only is it the location of the Soul Stone Vein of Dragon Tiger Mountain, but it is also said to be connected to Netherworld Hell.%0D%0AIn fact, the Soul Stone Vein in Jiangning Prefecture of Xu Qing also connected to a similar place.%0D%0AThe Old Heavenly Master slowly said, "With the Divine Pill’s emergence, thousands of ghosts pay homage. This is the final Dan Tribulation, everyone be careful."%0D%0AXu Qing and Xiong Chan nodded.%0D%0AFrom the rear mountain of Dragon Tiger Mountain, grey ghostly Qi furiously surged, producing green flames.%0D%0AThis was the Yin Energy from the Soul Stone Vein condensed to a certain extent, combined with materials within the vein generating azure phosphorus Evil Qi.%0D%0AOne after another, ghostly figures began to manifest within the Evil Qi, resembling malevolent spirits.%0D%0AThe wind howled angrily, and the ghostly Qi rolled furiously like angry waves, rushing towards the space above the Alchemy Well.%0D%0ASoon after, terrifying ghost fires descended like meteors.%0D%0AXu Qing could feel an extremely powerful intention accompanying the ghost fire, arriving at his physical body, attempting to seize control of it.%0D%0A"Heaven and Earth Mysterious Sect, the root of all Qi; broadly cultivated for billions of calamities, proving my Divine Powers!"%0D%0AXu Qing’s mind flashed with a summary of the Golden Light Spell.%0D%0AGolden light emitted from his entire body, dispersing the ghost fire.%0D%0ASizzling sounds!%0D%0AXu Qing continuously unleashed Palmar Thunder, sweeping away the spirit figures.%0D%0AHe saw the Old Heavenly Master’s Palmar Thunder surging like tidal waves, each wave stronger than the last.%0D%0AXu Qing could not help but admire the Old Heavenly Master’s profound and immeasurable cultivation.%0D%0AAt the same time, Xu Qing also saw those ghostly figures under the Thunder Skill, turning into pure Yin Energy, streaming into the Heavenly Master’s Degree possessed by the Old Heavenly Master.%0D%0AXiong Chan was also devouring these spirit figures in large mouthfuls.%0D%0A"Yin and Yang adjusted?" Xu Qing thought, and promptly followed suit, dispersingоты the spirit figures and then swallowing the Yin Energy, allowing it to enter the Hand’s Three Yin Veins, which also run through the Three Yin Demon Slaying Saber.%0D%0AMeanwhile, the Hidden Veins of the Xuanwu Seven Stars became increasingly illuminated, continuously absorbing the Yin Energy.

Three great masters were exorcising ghosts while absorbing Yin Energy.

It wasn’t until nightfall, when the Seven Azure Dragon Constellations rose above the horizon, that they managed to completely annihilate the intruding specters.

Xu Qing had also reached the limit of Yin Energy he could contain.

Both the Old Heavenly Master and Xiong Chan marvelled at this.

Their strength was immense, their cultivation profound, yet the amount of Yin Energy they could contain was only slightly more than Xu Qing’s. This young one was indeed an oddity.

Xiong Chan said with clasped hands, "Heavenly Master, Xu Jieyuan, I must now return to close-door cultivation. Once I achieve the rank of Martial Saint, I will hold a ceremony. I hope both of you will grace it with your presence."

Xu Qing and the Old Heavenly Master naturally agreed.

Xiong Chan laughed heartily, transforming into a shadow that descended the mountain. The thunderous laughter echoed between the mountain and rivers, exuberant and free, as if decades of shackles on him had broken in one day.

Xu Qing watched and felt a bit envious.

Old Heavenly Master: "Martial Arts begins from within and cultivating oneself is of utmost importance. Moreover, the Great Sun Tathagata Sutra of Great Zen Temple is considered supreme currently. Once Abbot Xiong Chan becomes a Martial Saint, even the Great Yu Imperial Family won’t be able to control him."

Xu Qing: "In this world, everyone has unfinished ties. They say one is free, but who can truly be free? Caught in the worldly society, one is seldom their own master."

Old Heavenly Master was momentarily taken aback, "Well said, ’one is seldom their own master.’"

Xu Qing smiled slightly: "These worldly ties are both a bind and also the ropes that moor one’s Daoist heart."

Old Heavenly Master couldn’t help but laugh again, "Gongming, your understanding from your studies is profound, surely you will surpass Elder Fang in the future."

Xu Qing laughed heartily: "Then let’s hope for the Heavenly Master’s auspicious words."

Old Heavenly Master then asked, "I wonder where Gongming plans to refine the Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill?"

Xu Qing: "I’ll be going back to Jiangning Prefecture."

He would first return to Jiangning Prefecture to seek the protection of Feng Wu and King Lin Tian. If on the way back, the Qi Fortune Little Snake indicates any danger, he will return to Dragon Tiger Mountain to protect the Old Heavenly Master. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

After all, the Old Heavenly Master refining the Xuantian Ascending Dragon Pill would likely attract a Heavenly Demon, and he would indeed need a protector.

Once the Old Heavenly Master makes his breakthrough, in terms of human relations, it would be right to return the favor and protect him!

The Old Heavenly Master naturally underestimated Xu Jieyuan’s audacity, and not knowing Xu Qing’s thoughts, simply smiled, "This time I will not have a major breakthrough, but my foundations will deepen. Once an opportunity arises, I shall cross three Heavenly Tribulations at once after Breaking Illusion. By then, I could match powers with the true body of the Black Mountain Demon."

Xu Qing had not expected that even after repelling the Three Corpses Primordial Spirit of the Black Mountain Demon, the Old Heavenly Master would still be so wary of him. Three Heavenly Tribulations, yet only to be at par with his real body?

The Old Heavenly Master seemed to detect Xu Qing’s doubts and explained, "The Old Demon has transcended through seven Heavenly Tribulations, achieving the realm of the creator, where his Primordial Spirit has cultivated an Inner Heaven and Earth capable of nurturing life. Such state that claims him as the number one expert in the world is well-deserved."

Xu Qing felt a heavy pressure, wondering if the real emergence of the Black Mountain Demon denoted the end of his lifespan as predicted by the bronze mirror.

Xu Qing examined the bronze mirror, which showed a slight three-month extension on his lifespan that had previously diminished before he came to Dragon Tiger Mountain.

It seems very likely.

However, he also felt that it was only part of the reason.

The Black Mountain Demon seemed more like a Heavenly Dao scythe destined to end his fate, and without the Black Mountain Demon, other scythes would appear.

Such is fate!

Life and fate, not just existence, but an unavoidable destiny.

Overcoming fate, such a daunting endeavor.

Xu Qing sighed silently, yet quickly revives his spirits.

For his loved ones, he must remain strong.

This was not just about him.

Xu Qing then bid farewell to the Old Heavenly Master and on his way back to Jiangning Prefecture, the Qi Fortune Little Snake showed no signs of turmoil, it was incredibly calm.

Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and understood this was a rare period of calm, one he needed to seize to make significant breakthroughs in his growth.

He felt an increasing urgency in his heart.

The situation in the world was becoming more unpredictable.

The Abbot of Great Zen Temple was about to attain Martial Saint, likely marking the beginning of a significant era.

Moreover, various powerful evil demons and devils were bound to emerge during a chaotic period—a certain eventuality in troubled times, not subject to personal will.

This also presented an opportunity for the chosen heroes, either to accomplish great deeds or achieve Dao in the chaos.

True gold is indeed tested by fire!
