Chapter 629: Earth-Suppressing Dragon Fist and Returning Saint-Nurturing Pill

The five great top-tier forces had all obtained information about the Cangqing Grotto from the Yan Jiaolong Palace.

They had long known the nature of the three trials within the Cangqing Grotto.

Therefore, upon entering the grotto, they were already somewhat prepared.

Even so, the pitch-black and lifeless spiritual sea, along with the foul, fishy sea breeze, still gave them a jolt.

Although there had not been a large-scale demonic outbreak in the Southern Sky Archipelago for thousands of years, smaller outbreaks still occurred every few hundred years.

As the five top-tier forces with vast territories, they had naturally encountered such events before.

With a single glance, they could tell that the Cangqing Grotto had been tainted by demonic aura.

A sense of unease grew in their hearts.

As for sects like the Wulei Mountain Sect, they had been drawn purely by the fame of the Cangqing Grotto.

They had no idea that this grotto was originally created as a trial ground for the dragon race's descendants.

After entering, they saw the blackened seawater and the foul sea breeze, assuming it was deliberately designed by the Cangqing Supreme.

Completely unaware that beneath the sea lurked bloodthirsty and brutal sea beasts,

lying in wait for the ignorant to approach.

When the first scream of agony rang out,

for the sea beasts, it marked the start of a blood-soaked feast.

Of course, a few lucky ones, while evading the sea beasts' attacks, happened upon a Green Dragon Treasure Boat and used it to speed up their sea crossing.

"Damn it!"

Shi Tianhao cursed and transformed into a streak of scarlet light, flames erupting behind him as he accelerated in escape.

Behind him, a reverse-toothed shark was in relentless pursuit.

Passing by a small island, Shi Tianhao hurriedly descended.

That reverse-toothed shark, being a sea beast, could not come ashore.

After circling the island several times, it finally left in frustration.

Shi Tianhao scanned the island, and once the shark had departed, quickly took his leave as well.

However, he felt an inexplicable emptiness in his heart,

as though he had missed something.

He had no idea that this small island originally held a Green Dragon Treasure Boat.

But now, that very boat had already been claimed by Shen Mo.

At this very moment, Shen Mo was standing on the shoreline.

Initially, he had estimated that crossing the spiritual sea would take only three to four days.

However, he had underestimated the degree to which the grotto had been corrupted by demonic aura.

Passing through the central region of the spiritual sea, the waters there were incredibly deep, and the sea beasts were exceptionally massive.

Several times, Shen Mo encountered terrifying beasts spanning ten thousand zhang.

On the surface of their bodies were over ninety dao patterns.

Such sea beasts were powerful enough to rival Nirvana stage cultivators with ninety dao patterns.

He was naturally no match for them.

These beasts possessed not only immense size and strength, but also astonishing vitality.

They could not be killed easily.

Shen Mo had no intention of wasting time battling such creatures.

He infused blood energy to activate the Green Dragon Treasure Boat's concealment function and circled far around them.

However, while concealed, the boat's speed dropped significantly.

Additionally, Shen Mo deliberately detoured to the lair of the Demonrock Crocodiles and exterminated them all.

He thoroughly searched the entire lair.

First, he discovered a dragon clan stone tablet containing the Saint-grade martial art Earth-Suppressing Dragon Fist.

Then, he found a pill furnace deep within the lair.

Inside were three Saint-grade mid-tier pills—Returning Saint-Nurturing Pills!

These pills were among those needed to enhance Saint-level physiques.

Even more effective than the Void Saint-Nurturing Pill Shen Mo had previously obtained in the Suppressing Demon Sea.

Because of these events, Shen Mo was delayed and took a full six days to reach the other side of the spiritual sea.

"Still, I've finally made it to shore. As expected, I should be the first to complete the spiritual sea trial."

Shen Mo smiled.

As expected.

Shen Mo stood silently in place.

Immediately, a beam of green light descended from the heavens, engulfing him in an instant.

This dazzling pillar of green light soared a full hundred thousand li into the sky.

Even cultivators standing on the starting shore of the spiritual sea could clearly see the beam.

Most of them were stunned, not knowing what had happened.

There was green light before entering the Cangqing Grotto.

Now, there was green light again after entering the grotto.

Had they entered for nothing?

Only cultivators from the five top-tier forces understood what that green pillar signified.

Within the spiritual sea,

Ao Can, Ao Xuan, and the other dragon clansmen were dumbfounded.

Ao Can cursed aloud, "Damn it, I knew it—my luck's terrible. First place has definitely been snatched away."

Yin Zanghua gazed at the green pillar, shaking her head in regret.

Yue Xinglou frowned in thought, unable to understand how, despite having found a Green Dragon Treasure Boat and riding the wind, someone had beaten him to it.

Xiang Bai stood calmly above the sea, gave the pillar a glance, and looked away.

He had come only to quell the demonic unrest.

As for the treasures within the Cangqing Grotto, it would be good if he obtained them; if not, it was no matter.

At that moment, Shi Tianhao was still en route.

Beneath his feet was also a Green Dragon Treasure Boat.

However, it was not intact—its body was riddled with damage.

Originally, this boat had also been protected by the grotto's treasure light like the others, shielding it from demonic taint.

But due to some flaws in its formation,

and the long passage of time, the formation had gradually worn down and allowed demonic aura to seep in.

It had become the only one among the twenty Green Dragon Treasure Boats to suffer corruption.

Still, despite being tainted, its functions remained intact. While not as good as the others, it was far superior to traveling on foot.

With this damaged Green Dragon Treasure Boat, Shi Tianhao passed through several whirlpools and even made faster progress.

Along the way, he even caught a distant glimpse of a Flame Dragon and guessed it might be a true dragon from the Flame Flood Dragon Palace.

He was filled with confidence.

Even a true dragon had been left behind in his wake!

He originally believed he would be the first to complete the spiritual sea trial.

But now...

Shi Tianhao stared at the distant pillar of green light, his heart turning cold.

Clearly, he had missed the chance to be first.

"Damn it, who on earth got ahead of me?"

"The one who comes first in the spiritual sea trial can choose any one item from a trove of Saint artifacts. That was supposed to be my fortune!"

Shi Tianhao gnashed his teeth and clenched his fists.

Even the pain of his nails digging deep into his palms couldn't make him let go.

...

Meanwhile,

Shen Mo's consciousness seemed to enter a mysterious and profound space.

The area was bathed in green light, rich with spiritual energy.

It bore a striking resemblance to the Heavenly Dao Treasury he had previously accessed with his mind.

"Where are the items?"

Shen Mo was still puzzling over it when

the green light before him suddenly surged like a tide.

Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.

In an instant, dozens of glowing orbs appeared before him.

Each orb radiated blinding brilliance.

Within them were Saint artifacts!

Blades, spears, swords, halberds, axes, clubs, hooks, forks—countless types.

Shen Mo's gaze swept across them.

But when the corner of his eye caught sight of a pitch-black dragon-shaped giant shear, his focus immediately stopped.

Without the slightest hesitation, he chose the black giant shear.

He knew very well—

the rest were all low-grade Saint artifacts.

Only this Black Dragon Shear was a mid-grade Saint artifact!

It had been forged from the twin claws of a true dragon, possessing unmatched offensive power, and was especially adept at destroying other Saint artifacts.

Even though it was only a mid-grade Saint artifact, it could go head-to-head with upper-grade ones!
