Chapter 555: 463 Inventory Harvest (No more for today)_1

Yin Jie reacted quickly, his right hand shining with golden light, he struck out with his palm, and a giant golden palm flashed into existence, meeting the oncoming force.

The giant golden palm collided with the yellow one, which instantly disintegrated.

Specks of red light ignited in the sky, turning into colossal fireballs the size of houses, plummeting toward Yin Jie.

Yin Jie chanted a spell, and points of golden light emerged in the void, turning into golden flying knives that flew towards the incoming giant fireballs.

A series of thunderous booms erupted as the golden flying knives and giant fireballs both perished together.

As Lin Xiang chanted a spell, a long halberd with flickering blue light surged in spiritual brightness, knocking away a golden wheel and shooting straight towards Yin Jie.

Yin Jie flicked his sleeve, and nine golden shimmering flying knives shot out, merging into one, transforming into a golden giant blade about a zhang long, to meet the azure long halberd.

The azure long halberd collided with the golden giant blade, emitting a clang of metal striking metal, and the golden giant blade was sent flying.

Seizing the opportunity, the golden wheel returned to defense, blocking the azure long halberd.

A powerful gravitational force emerged from the ground, sending Yin Jie’s body uncontrollably plummeting toward the earth.

The ground rose up with a huge bulge, and a Yellow Giant Ape, a hundred zhang tall, burst forth from the soil.

Yin Jie was shocked and alarmed. He pinched a spell, and the golden giant blade circled around, slashing at the Yellow Giant Ape.

The Yellow Giant Ape did not dodge but threw a punch with right fist shining bright yellow, striking out.

With a "clang," the golden giant blade was sent flying away.

The Yellow Giant Ape roared up at the sky, spewing out a yellow soundwave that shot straight towards Yin Jie.

Yin Jie’s right palm struck out, a giant golden palm flashed into existence, crushing the yellow soundwave, and slapped onto the Yellow Giant Ape, which appeared to be unfazed.

The golden wheel shone brilliantly, knocking back the azure long halberd, then spiraled towards the Yellow Giant Ape.

The Yellow Giant Ape was not intimidated in the least, throwing out a left punch to meet the golden wheel.

A muffled clang echoed as the golden wheel was sent flying backward.

Yin Jie wanted to use other tactics, but the azure long halberd flew in again, chopping towards him.

Just as he was about to cast a spell for defense, a loud bell tolled.

Yin Jie’s brow furrowed tightly, as if someone had pricked his divine soul with a needle, causing unbearable pain.

After all, being a Soul Transformation Cultivator at the Middle Stage, his divine soul was stronger, and he quickly regained his composure. A string of beads on his right hand radiated blinding spiritual light, and a thick quad-colored light shield appeared, surrounding his entire body.

At that moment, the Yellow Giant Ape’s right fist came smashing down, impacting on the quad-colored light shield.

A dull thud sounded as the light shield caved in and the spiritual light dimmed.

After all, it was a complete set of Defensive Spirit Treasures, so its defense was rather strong.

The azure long halberd flew in again, striking the quad-colored light shield, which, like the straw that broke the camel’s back, shattered completely.

The azure long halberd bisected Yin Jie’s body, and his corpse emitted a blinding golden light, turning into a flickering Talisman.

The Talisman self-ignited, burning to ash.

A golden light appeared in the void a hundred miles away, and Yin Jie briefly emerged, his expression full of terror.

"Retreat quickly!"

Yin Jie shouted loudly, retracted the golden wheel, his body shone with golden light, and turned into a golden rainbow that tore through the sky and fled.

"Where do you think you’re going!"

The Yellow Giant Ape bellowed, its right palm swiping through the void, and a yellow giant palm flashed into existence, aiming for Yin Jie.

Yin Jie’s body exploded in golden light, vanishing from his original spot.

Tuo Shan and the others began to retreat as well, but the likes of Qinglian Sword Venerable didn’t pursue. Seeing their enemies cornered and desperate, and having not gained much advantage themselves, they figured that pursuit would not necessarily be to their benefit.

A flash of yellow light, and the Yellow Giant Ape morphed back into Shen Long.

With support from the Goldscale Clan, the Tianyuan Tribe had hoped to achieve some victory, slaying or severely wounding a few Soul Transformation Cultivators. Yet their strategic objectives weren’t met, and they even lost two of their own Soul Transformation Cultivators.

"This time, being able to fend off Yin Jie and his cohort, Taoist Friend Shen played an indispensable role."

Lin Xiang praised, a hint of wariness flashing in his eyes.

The Art of Transformation wielded by Shen Long was too terrifying, he resisted a Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasure with sheer physical toughness, and his complete set of Defensive Spirit Treasures nearly failed to block Shen Long.

"After this battle, the Tianyuan Tribe will not dare to trouble us anymore."

Qi Xiao said with a smile.

"Taoist Friend Shen’s divine skills are beyond human, and Li has truly broadened his horizons."

Li Wenbin showed a look of admiration.

If it weren’t for Shen Long, the losses of the Human Clan would have been significant.

They had heard some doubts about Shen Long’s Art of Transformation from Liu Yuyun before, but now they had no doubts left.

"If it weren’t for the aid of all the fellow Taoists in restraining the enemy, I wouldn’t have been able to achieve such great results."

Shen Long said modestly.

Yin Jie and other Soul Transformation Cultivators fled for their lives in all directions, and naturally, the Heterodox Cultivators did not dare to linger in battle and scattered in retreat, while the Human Cultivators pursued relentlessly, slaughtering a large number of them.

Soul Transformation Cultivators like Shen Long returned to Three Saints City and each went back to their own residences to rest.

Back in the Spirt Control Garden, Shen Long stepped into a secret room.

He took out a golden Storage Bracelet, flicked his wrist, and as a golden light flitted past, a large pile of items appeared on the ground.

Two exquisite jade boxes sealed with Talismans caught Shen Long’s attention, he removed the Talismans and opened the box lids.

Inside the two jade boxes were a golden porcelain bottle, a golden jade box, and a light golden token respectively, with three mysterious runes inscribed on the golden token, resembling text.

"What script is this?"

Shen Long picked up the golden token, examined it carefully, but could not recognize it.

He took out the Nascent Soul of the man in the golden robe and conducted a Soul Search.

"Cai Lei! It’s actually another incarnation of him."

Shen Long exclaimed in surprise.

The man in the golden robe was called Yue Shuo, his mother was from the Fire Sun Clan, and his father was from the Goldscale Clan.

A million years ago, some tribes of the Fire Sun Clan pledged allegiance to the Tianyuan Tribe, and a group of Fire Sun Clan Cultivators followed the Tianyuan Tribe to retreat into the Tianyuan Realm. Later, some Fire Sun Clan Cultivators followed the Goldscale Clan to the Golden Glass Realm.

By chance, Yue Shuo found an ancient Cultivator’s cave and captured a remnant soul, discovering that it was another incarnation of Cai Lei, a disciple of the Big Dipper Pavilion in the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot.

Before Cai Lei’s self-destruction, his incarnation had cultivated to the Divinity Transformation Stage, took a batch of resources, and went to other realms. After several twists and turns, he arrived in the Golden Glass Realm.

This incarnation of Cai Lei once caused a massacre in the Golden Glass Realm, was besieged by several Soul Transformation Cultivators, gravely injured and perishing. Yue Shuo obtained his remains.

"Essence Blood and Demon Core of a fifth-stage Thunder Roc! Is this the great fortune divined by Du Xiao?"

Shen Long muttered to himself, his expression excited.

The golden porcelain bottle contained the Essence Blood of an early fifth-stage Thunder Roc, the jade box contained its Demon Core, and both were brought from the Realm of the Spiritual Pivot by Cai Lei.

As for the golden token, even Cai Lei didn’t know its exact purpose or origin, just that it was something very precious.

With the Essence Blood and Demon Core of the early fifth-stage Thunder Roc, combined with a ten-thousand-year-old Qixia Jade Lotus, the probability of successfully mutating the Gold-Winged Windroc was very high.

The Thunder Roc differed from the Windroc by only a single character, but their divine skills were worlds apart; the former’s Escape Speed was unparalleled compared to the latter.

Shen Long entered the Myriad Beasts Tower, went to the fourth floor, and fed the Thunder Roc Essence Blood, Demon Core, and the ten-thousand-year-old Qixia Jade Lotus to the Gold-Winged Windroc.

After eating, the Gold-Winged Windroc became drowsy and needed time to digest the potent demon force in the Thunder Roc’s Demon Core.

Shen Long left the Myriad Beasts Tower. He had slain two Soul Transformation Cultivators and gained a Sky-Reaching Spiritual Treasure, the Qing Luan Axe, plus twelve Spiritual Treasures, over seven million Spirit Stones, twenty-five pieces of fifth-stage Artifact Refining material, and twelve strands of Spiritual Medicine over three thousand years old.

Compared to the Soul Transformation Cultivators of the Tianyuan Tribe, those of the Goldscale Clan were indeed a bit pauperized.
