by fanqienovelChapter 442: Spitting Legends of Grievances and Enmities
The Great Earthly Xuan Dragon of Reverse Five Elements talisman is a creation of incredible origin, depicting nine legendary treasures, with the silver snake bracelet forcibly gathering light and shadow to reveal its mysterious power.
The nine-colored deer’s antlers, Opening Heaven Coin, Celestial Tree, Xirang, waters of the Jade Pool, Dou Rate Divine Fire, Spirit Bright Stone Monkey, Celestial Dog teeth, and the tentacles of the Multi-Eyed Beasts.
This talisman utilizes the principles of the Five Elements to disrupt the structure of all things, channeling Dragon Energy to manifest into a dragon form, possessing extraordinary potential.
Li Hui unexpectedly swallowed this extraordinary talisman. Without thinking, he gulped it down whole and even swallowed the heavenly mansion ceramic vase, allowing it to shatter inside him.
Now, with the refinement of his profound qi surpassing that of the vase, he keeps it in his External Transformation as a precaution against the Arhat Fruit’s violent nature, capable of sealing the Arhat Fruit within his qi.
Currently, Ge Yuntao was employing the Blood Technique of Celestial Demons Disintegration, pushing the power of demonic cultivation to an unbelievable level. If he continued unchecked, it could spell trouble. Although Li Hui’s true self was far away in the Great Xia, his External Transformation was in great peril. Thinking through his options, he realized he only had one last move left.
“Before I returned, I pondered on what to do in the face of an insurmountable crisis. In the end, I realized I must depend on talisman methods. This Great Earthly Xuan Dragon of Reverse Five Elements talisman is both a decree and a formation, with each of the nine legendary treasures being extraordinary. However, when I initially created this talisman, my knowledge was still shallow, relying on sheer audacity and the silver snake bracelet to complete it, and it has many flaws.”
“Since we’ve reached this point, witness my talisman path and my challenge!”
Li Hui had undergone a transformation; he had invested innumerable efforts and insights into his true methods, breaking through barriers to ascend to Bosa, reaching a new understanding of talisman methods as he raised both arms and struck his chest fiercely.
“Go!” Ge Yuntao casually gestured, and the poisonous scorpion talisman began to dive.
Li Hui puffed up his cheeks, exhaled white smoke from his nostrils, and once again struck his chest with force. As the massive scorpion approached, raising its tail, he suddenly opened his mouth, unleashing a fiery breath.
The Dou Rate Divine Fire soared invisibly, the ancestral fire of elixirs, once thought lost in Wutu.
Such a thing is immensely powerful; even a tiny fraction of its might could destroy everything in existence. As the poisonous scorpion talisman caught fire in the wind, it was consumed in an instant, leaving not even a trace of ash.
“Ah? How could this be?” Ge Yuntao exclaimed in disbelief. Despite his substantial power boost, the efficacy of the poisonous scorpion talisman should have kept him above this brat. How did he instantly falter?
Li Hui opened his mouth again, expelling a large copper coin inscribed with “Opening Heaven Coin.”
Legend has it that this coin represents the ingenuity of creation, forged from five spiritual metals, able to conquer all trees worldwide. It is also known as the Falling Treasure coin, and since it belongs to the metal element, all treasures of metal must respect it.
Ge Yuntao was struck with terror as all his spirit treasures and storage treasures flew away.
That wasn’t all; across the range of Jade Spring Mountain, all metal-related items soared into the sky, gathered by the Six-Armed Arhat with a feint, who collected them into the Golden Shell.
Li Hui smiled slightly; disarming the opponent would secretly augment his talisman power. He turned to the blood-armored Demon Lord and sprayed out a stream of brilliant water, which flew into the air, forming a rushing river that ceaselessly battered and extinguished the demonic flames surrounding the blood-armored Demon Lord.
This was the waters of the Jade Pool, which could extinguish three-flame true fire; what could mere demonic flames do?
Ge Yuntao staggered back three steps, clearly possessing such formidable power but having no way to contend with his opponent. The blood-armored Demon Lord’s figure continued to compress, eventually becoming the Demon Lord’s Ascendance Talisman that slowly descended from the air, visibly damaged.
Li Hui withdrew the Six-Armed Arhat’s fourth time, unleashing a sphere of black light.
“Not good!”
In an instant, Ge Yuntao sensed a murky aura lash out like a whip. He dodged slowly, brushed lightly against his skin, causing his body to cave in, flesh to crumble, and bones to fracture as demonic energy spilled forth.
This was the most powerful treasure on the talisman, the tentacle of the Multi-Eyed Beasts. Legends say a beast named Chaos could swallow heaven and earth and disrupt the Five Elements, relying solely on two tentacles to whip the Yin-Yang and Five Elements—like witnessing great terror descend.
With this legendary rare item, Li Hui utilized it against Ge Yuntao, and the black light surged outward, thundering down and destroying the mountain gate of the Blood Talisman Sect.
Originally, his goal was the mountain gate; dealing with Ge Yuntao was just a side task.
But it wasn’t over! Li Hui opened his mouth for the fifth time, spewing out a cloud of dust that expanded in the air, rumbling and pressing down, forcing Ge Yuntao to continuously punch and resist.
This was Xirang, rumored to be wielded by the Emperor to tame the waters, a great deed achieving sainthood. It could both control water and suppress—boundless in weight.
An explosion erupted from the sky as the Yang Gu extinguished the ancient celestial demons summoned by blood and heart, returning triumphantly with the Nine-Nine Scatter Yuan Gourd like a general after victory.
Li Hui opened his mouth for the sixth time, spraying a shadow of the Celestial Tree.
This shadow wasn’t the Blossoming Branch of the Celestial Tree planted in the Mysterious Pearl; it was the authentic Celestial Tree. As soon as it appeared, it instantly triggered a change in the atmospheric qi.
Just as Ge Yuntao calmed the Xirang, he found the tree shadow looming over him. Before he could comprehend what was happening, a bolt of calamity thunder, thicker than any from Wang Tian Cliff, struck down.
This kind of lightning seemed poised to destroy the world; it was the extinction divine thunder!
Amid the roar, despite Li Hui’s attempts to avoid it, he was still affected, his body retreating while nearly revealing his essence of calamity power.
“No, I am high above…” Ge Yuntao felt a surge of desperation; however, the lightning was too terrifying, and he was at a loss on how to defend himself. Unexpectedly, disaster descended.
Calamity clouds rushed forth, false tribulation thunder drew out real tribulation thunder, going from early to mid-stage Myriad Forms and then from mid-stage to late-stage. Wasn’t such a leap fraught with calamity? Demon cultivators bear heavier tribulations, let alone an old ghost who possessed himself to reconstruct! Though Ge Yuntao once managed to suppress it, now he could no longer contain it!
Li Hui maintained his distance, deciding not to open his mouth again.
Still, the saying holds: “Old and unyielding are thieves.”
Even though Ge Yuntao summoned the thunder tribulations, he persisted for quite a while. He still had trump cards and assassination weapons, but for now, they could only be used to counter tribulations.
Finally, after an hour, with a desperate roar, the old fellow’s body shattered, reducing into dust as his soul exploded into smoke.
He is dead!
Now Ge Yuntao, a prominent figure controlling half of Haofu, perished in the midst of the raging extinction divine thunder. The enmity between Li Hui and him began at Jade Spring Mountain and ended there, resolving a cycle of cause and effect.
Yang Jueyu and Quan Juecheng also met their end. After Ge Yuntao drained all of the disciples’ cultivation, the two fell to the ground. Those still affected by the Arhat Seven Kill Talisman remained brutal, crawling over to bite them to death and devouring their flesh.
Li Hui did not expect their deaths to come in such a horrific manner; one could only blame Ge Yuntao for leaving them with no power to resist!
Across the mountain, Blood Talisman Sect disciples lay sprawled on the ground. After a strong wind blew through, all the disciples vanished without a trace.
Before long, numerous buildings and plants on Jade Spring Mountain, even Frost Town at the foot of the mountain, completely disappeared without a trace, uprooted entirely.
Next, Li Hui made his way to a certain location—the underground ruins, where the Qiongqi once broke ground, along with the Gu Niu, Fei Yi, and Gu Diao that had emerged to cause chaos. Brother Yuan Ciheng and Senior Sister Luo Meini led people inside but never returned, making this incident a mystery for the Haotu Sect.
