Chapter 333: Chapter 226: Xia Family True Dragon_2

Chen Guangxi once again spat out a mouthful of dragon flames, the magnificent and surging sea of fire incinerating the frost sword aura completely. The ice melted into water, then instantly evaporated into steam, white mist rising around them.

Dark matter spread silently, countless muddy tentacles sprang from the shadow of the guardian golem, binding it tight.

The guardian golem’s eyes showed no emotion, a burst of extreme cold erupted from its body, freezing the dark tentacles into ice sculptures that shattered at a touch.

Swoosh!

A sliver of deep, dark radiance flashed through the air, a round hole suddenly appeared in the chest of the guardian golem, penetrating through.

Crack... then the crisp sound of shattering echoed, the protective body formation of the guardian golem shattered into countless light particles.

The guardian golem’s eyes lost their luster, completely losing power, and it collapsed to the ground.

"Such pure spiritual power... Ninety-nine percent, a rare thing indeed." Zhou Yuan’s aura was somewhat boiling at this moment. He had used Return to Ruins to devour the guardian golem’s core, its energy supply, but hadn’t expected the contained energy to be so vast, that Return to Ruins was a bit overwhelmed, running wildly, digesting the energy.

"The core energy sources of Heaven’s guardian golems are all divine sources; a small piece is enough for an ordinary cultivator to use for a lifetime," Ye Wushuang said.

"Then if we get a few more pieces, wouldn’t we strike it rich?" Bai Xiao’s eyes lit up instantly.

"Keep going inside, everyone be careful, without Jiang around, someone could really die," Chen Guangxi reminded them.

Zhou Yuan stepped forward and stored the guardian golem into the system backpack. Even without the energy core, it could still be sold for 50,000 Star Coins.

As expected, dungeon crawling was the most profitable. Just take down a few more guardian golems, and the Star Coins would accumulate again!

...

"Found it, it actually exists..."

Outside the island, a group of indigenous cultivators from Lingxu Dongtian arrived, their bodies surrounded by a thick aura of blood, as if they had just been through a slaughter.

They looked at the immense temple island in front of them, unable to hide their excitement.

"The legendary Heaven’s fragment!"

"According to ancient records, this fragment comes from Heaven’s Dancheng, it might still contain the divine pills crafted by Heaven’s alchemists of the past!"

"Master, let’s go in quickly!"

The group looked towards the leading man in the golden robe.

He had sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, black hair draped over his shoulders, with a composed and heroic demeanor, possessing an aura of high authority. His eyes were incredibly sharp, like a blade capable of piercing one’s soul.

The man in the golden robe spat out a single word:

"Go."

...

[There are a lot of poisonous gases ahead, yes, the kind that killed Jiang Wuming, be careful. A little tip: as long as you hold your breath and don’t inhale, you can be immune to this kind of pill toxin.]

Zhou Yuan signaled everyone to stop, extending his perception to feel from a distance. He was surprised to find the Eternal Gene Squad ahead.

Approaching, they found the members of the Eternal Gene Squad just coming out from a half-collapsed palace.

"It’s you guys." The squad leader was startled, then said, "We’ve neutralized the gas that killed Jiang Wuming."

"What happened?" Zhou Yuan asked.

"Back when Heaven collapsed, someone was refining a poison pill," the squad leader shrugged, "The alchemy furnace accidentally chipped, and the poison gas released from the pill leaked out, slowly spreading across the entire island."

"So that’s how it is..." Zhou Yuan nodded in understanding.

After saying goodbye to the Eternal Gene Squad, the group continued their swift movement.

Five or six minutes later, they arrived at the center of the island.

Here was a huge fist imprint, seemingly the culprit behind the island’s downfall.

"Wow, what a domineering fist intent." Chen Guangxi stood at the edge, feeling the supreme will contained within the fist imprint, domineering and fierce, with an air of absolute superiority.

"Martial Emperor Fist..." Ye Wushuang whispered, "Did the Martial Emperor’s heirs also participate in the battle?"

"Martial Emperor?" Chen Guangxi was intrigued by the words, "Tell me more."

"A martial fanatic, a born battle maniac, went from Qi Refinement all the way to Quasi-Immortal, either fighting or on the way to fight.

In terms of combat power, he was undoubtedly among the top three in the Immortal World, and the self-created ultimate technique Martial Emperor Fist was recognized as the strongest offensive Divine Skill.

He attempted numerous breakthroughs to become an Immortal but failed, leaving behind many path injuries, thus his lifespan was short. In the end, he made a desperate effort to become an Immortal when his life force was nearing its end... But he failed.

The Martial Emperor had many heirs, four of whom mastered the ultimate technique Martial Emperor Fist. We don’t know who made the move... But it doesn’t matter anymore, they are all just past dust."

Chen Guangxi stared at the fist imprint, contemplating silently for a while: "You guys go ahead, I’ll stay here to observe for a bit."

The fist intent contained within the imprint had given her significant insight, and she wanted to take this opportunity to perfect her True Dragon Martial Arts.

"Then be careful." Zhou Yuan was confident in Chen Guangxi’s strength, knowing that even if she couldn’t win, she could escape with spatial techniques.

[The divine pill treasury is still 15 kilometers away.]

Zhou Yuan followed the navigation quickly towards the destination. Fifteen kilometers was nothing for him at his extraordinary level, and within a few minutes, he led the group to the location.

A massive golden palace stood before them, majestic and imposing.

[Years have passed, the defensive spiritual formation of the divine pill treasury is still operational, but it’s already damaged. It can be forcibly destroyed with external force, but it’s suggested you wait a bit, because trouble is coming.]

Zhou Yuan sensed something and turned his head, seeing a golden stream of light flying from a distance, landing not far away, revealing a figure.

A black-haired, sharp-eyed man in a golden robe, exuding an aura of dominance and arrogance.

[Xia Yuan, rank 5, a man with a domineering spirit, overbearing and unruly, possessing an air of absolute superiority, known as the True Dragon of the Xia Family, the only member of the Xia Family in hundreds of years to master the "Dragon Emperor True Scripture,"

Ranked fifth on the Lingxu Dongtian Heaven’s Pride Ranking.]

[The Xia Family, a top-tier force in Lingxu Dongtian, a millennium-old family, comparable to the major Supernatural Organizations in the real world in terms of heritage.]

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Several streams of light followed closely, landing behind Xia Yuan, each exuding extraordinary aura, even the weakest one was at the fourth tier.

"Everyone, we have taken a liking to this place, please leave immediately." A man in gray spoke up, rudely driving the group away.

Among the group, besides one in the Divinity Transformation Realm, the rest were beings they could crush at will, not worthy of any courtesy.

As for that one in the Divinity Transformation Realm... The man in gray didn’t think much of it. In their group, only one wasn’t in the Divinity Transformation Realm; any one of them could take the opponent down easily.

After all, they were the elites trained by the Xia Family, consuming Spirit Rice and Spirit Water from a young age, receiving training and cultivation guidance, and practicing top-tier cultivation techniques, how could these people compare?

"Does everyone in your Cultivation World love playing this game?" Zhou Yuan looked at Ye Wushuang.

"There are always plenty of ignorant people, don’t generalize," Ye Wushuang responded indifferently.

"Are you quite dissatisfied?" The gray-clad man’s eyes grew colder; if they didn’t appreciate his courtesy, blood would have to be spilled.

"Wait, I think I’ve seen him somewhere before..." A man at the back stared at Zhou Yuan for a moment, suddenly enlightened: "He, he is Daoist Zhou!"

"Daoist Zhou? The newly emerged prominent figure in Chenzhou, claiming to be a reincarnated Immortal cultivator?"

"He also claimed to be invincible in the world." Someone added.

Zhou Yuan was speechless: "I never said those things, it’s all nonsense from the villagers."

"Oh? So you are Zhou Yuan?"

At this moment, Xia Yuan’s pupils lit up with two dazzling divine lights, compelling and full of interest.

He stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at everyone from above, and said nonchalantly: "I’ve heard of your vast divine skills and unmatched combat power. I’d like to test your cultivation."

"Sure, how much will you pay?"

Zhou Yuan rubbed his hands together, "I don’t fight for free."

Boom!

Xia Yuan attacked without warning, his fist wrapped in a formidable golden dragon, striking towards Zhou Yuan.
