As soon as that Second Prince and the Yellow Spring Demonic Sect expert, the "Black Nether King," flew over, they broke away all the rolling dark clouds above the lake.
At the same time, the eyes of the two great experts shone brightly.
So many Black Water King Snakes, and every one of them was extremely formidable. The skins, sinews, bones, and blood on their bodies could all be refined into treasure items. Furthermore, there was a Blood Dragon Crystal mountain peak; the value was truly immeasurable!
"Hahahaha, to think we would actually discover so many treasures."
Without further ado, that Black Nether King waved his hand. Instantly, black rays of light shot out across the sky, actually forming a massive net. Surging straight ahead, it ensnared two Black Water King Snakes so that they couldn't move. Subsequently, he took out a magical treasure resembling a fishbowl and tossed it upwards. A tornado-like air current shot out from it, immediately rolling the two Black Water King Snakes up inside it. They fell into the fishbowl.
Instantly, the originally incomparably massive Black Water King Snakes, tens of zhang long, struggled and floundered inside the fishbowl like two black loaches.
Obviously, it was not that the Black Water King Snakes had shrunk, but this fishbowl was a formidable magical treasure refined from Void Crystal Stones. It contained a massive space.
Having collected two Black Water King Snakes in this single action, more Black Water King Snakes amidst the rolling dark clouds were deeply enraged.
Between heaven and earth, the aura of fishy saliva was everywhere. A full hundred-plus Black Water King Snakes simultaneously opened their bloody maws, spewing out the intrinsic true water they had refined, condensing into the "True Water Yin Talisman Sword Qi." They actually formed a sword array, besieging the Black Nether King within it.
Earth-shattering water swords crisscrossed and cut up everything, vibrating fiercely. Coupled with the thunderous roars and hisses of the Black Water King Snakes, it was thrilling, and heaven and earth trembled for it.
"Sinful beasts! Just because you cultivated the True Water Yin Talisman Sword of the immemorial Heavenly Dragons, you think you can injure me? Gloom Primordial Spirit!" Seeing this scene, the Black Nether King knew that these Black Water King Snakes possessed extremely powerful magic power and formidable water-attribute divine abilities. Although their realms couldn't compare to his by a long margin, he still couldn't take them lightly. As the True Water Yin Talisman Sword Array came to kill, he drove out the "Heaven and Earth Dharma Manifestation" he had cultivated with great suffering, the Gloom Primordial Spirit.
A somber black shadow, resembling a Demon King from the depths of the dark regions, ascended from above his head. Many demonic path divine abilities circled around its body, a full twenty-nine divine abilities in total, emanating a tyrannical aura. Its demonic claws were the size of a lofty mountain. As it exhaled and shouted, overwhelming demonic clouds exploded repeatedly, instantly blasting apart more than half of the True Water Yin Talisman Swords.
These water swords, after all, were just a single sect of divine abilities, rather than genuine flying swords; they were easily shattered.
As for these Black Water King Snakes, although their magic power was strong, the vast majority had only refined True Qi and were experts of the Divine Ability Second Realm. Among them, only a few had cultivated to the Yin Yang Realm, and not a single one had cultivated to the "Heaven and Human Realm." The great array they condensed posed no great threat to a powerhouse who had cultivated to the Divine Ability Ninth Realm, Heaven and Earth Dharma Manifestation.
The comprehension ability of the demon race was much weaker than that of humans.
Generally, for a demonic cultivator to cultivate to the "Heaven and Human Realm" was more difficult than it was for a human to cultivate to the Divine Ability Seventh Realm Golden Core.
"This Gloom Primordial Spirit of the Black Nether King is far from being as powerful as the Ghost Emperor's Nine Ghosts Primordial Spirit. His magic power is at most only half of the Ghost Emperor's, but he can already be called a top supreme expert! If we go to battle, I have absolute certainty of defeating him!"
As soon as Fang Han saw the "Black Nether King" execute his intrinsic Heaven and Earth Dharma Manifestation, the Gloom Primordial Spirit, he roughly knew this person's strength. Being only half of the Ghost Emperor's, he was also inferior to Meng Shaobai. With his current cultivation, he could defeat him without using the Yellow Spring Diagram or the Blood Night King.
Back then, when Fang Han fought Meng Shaobai, he used the Yellow Spring Diagram, the Blood Night King, the Ghost Snake Sword, the Mind Sword, and many other powerful magical treasures, even including the Purple Qi Thunderbolt Seeds.
But the current Fang Han was much more powerful than when he fought Meng Shaobai. Without needing Dao items, he could completely triumph over the "Black Nether King."
He was itching to try, pondering how to instantly kill and seal the "Black Nether King" in one strike, while also subjugating the hundreds of Black Water King Snakes and collecting the "Blood Dragon Crystal" mountain peak. Meanwhile, Prince Yi could no longer contain himself either.
"Fang Han, so many Black Water King Snakes are actually all experts who have cultivated into the Divine Ability Mystic Realm. If we capture them all, one is worth at least tens of millions. If we capture them all, the value won't be less than a Nirvana Pill. There's even a Blood Dragon Crystal mountain peak, the value of which is enormous. Moreover, who knows, there might be ancient Heavenly Dragon treasures beneath this lake. We must strike first to gain the upper hand, lest we let others get there first. What a massive fortune this is! If others obtain it, the consequences would be unimaginable. If I obtained it. My financial power would expand to a peak; I could recruit at least double the number of rogue cultivators for my use."
"Humph! How could I not know this? I also want that Blood Dragon Crystal mountain peak to temper my demonic blade, Blood Firmament. However, to defeat so many Black Water King Snakes, the Black Nether King still has to expend some effort. The Black Nether King is, at any rate, a peerless expert of the Divine Ability Ninth Realm. It is easy for me to deal with him, but he might be able to run away. It's best if we catch them all in one net. What's more, it's not good for me to injure that Second Prince either. There are various misgivings."
Fang Han was brewing in his heart how to strike with absolute infallibility, while also waiting for an opportunity.
At this time, those hundreds of Black Water King Snakes actually became intertwined with each other amidst the dark clouds, linking head to tail, forming a pattern. Their entire magic power connected together and suddenly evolved the illusory phantom of a dragon! It battled with the "Gloom Primordial Spirit" with great vigor.
"Coiling Dragon Great Array! This is also a divine ability of the immemorial Heavenly Dragon race. It seems that beneath this mountain peak, there are indeed treasures, without a doubt." The Second Prince did not attack, but stood in the air behind the Black Nether King, watching him fight the magic battle against the hundreds of Black Water King Snakes while taking up the task of standing guard to prevent enemy sneak attacks.
This Second Prince had also cultivated to the Divine Ability Seventh Realm Golden Core, a small giant of the ages, an outstanding figure among the royal family of the Great Xuan Empire. He was called "Prince Zhen."
"These sinful beasts are truly hard to fight! It seems I need to expend some vital energy and a magical treasure."
The Black Nether King's expression was grave, and he was just about to execute his killer move.
Suddenly, the situation underwent another change.
In the distance, an overwhelming power descended from the sky. With just a single tear, taking advantage of the gap in the magical battle between the Black Water King Snakes and the Black Nether King, this power directly landed on that Blood Dragon Crystal mountain peak. Transforming into a giant hand, it fiercely pulled this mountain peak upwards! It was actually trying to seize it away out of thin air!
The power to uproot mountains!
Although this Blood Dragon Crystal mountain peak was not as large as the "Human Emperor Pen" mountain Fang Han saw underground—not even a tenth of it long—that was because the Heavenly Crystal Mountain formed by the "Human Emperor Pen" was truly too large, as large as a continental plate.
However, this Blood Dragon Crystal mountain peak was roughly equal to his own Reincarnation Peak. To think someone would attempt to uproot it just like that; what massive magic power did the newcomer possess?
Fang Han considered it himself and found it somewhat difficult. Unless one had cultivated to the Golden Core, they could not possess this kind of mountain-uprooting power.
"Hua Tiandu has come!"
Fang Han, who had originally intended to strike, instantly knew who had come! Only Hua Tiandu, who cultivated the "Panwu Great Strength Divine Ability," would act so arrogantly as to want to directly uproot the mountain peak.
"Hua Tiandu! You dare to snatch the treasures!" The Second Prince, "Prince Zhen," instantly flew into a great rage. The heavenly gate on his head surged open, and instantly a Golden Core flew out, spinning around resoundingly, as fifteen divine abilities flew out.
"Second Brother, having discovered treasures, don't monopolize the food. Hundreds of Black Water King Snakes, a Blood Dragon Crystal mountain peak; these are treasures worth several billions or more. What's more, there might be relics of the immemorial Heavenly Dragons underneath."
Right at this moment, a prince flew over in the sky. It was exactly the prince "Prince Feng." He also flew out his own Golden Core, forcing the Second Prince's Golden Core back.
And at this time, Hua Tiandu's body suddenly appeared right above the Blood Dragon Crystal mountain peak. Completely ignoring the battle between the "Black Nether King" and the hundreds of Black Water King Snakes, he directly executed his magic power and gradually uprooted the Blood Dragon Crystal mountain peak.
The lake water vibrated and the earth cracked open. Birds and beasts in the distance ran madly as if doomsday had arrived. The entire water surface of that colossal lake spanning hundreds of miles flew up. Countless fish, shrimp, and water monsters were shattered into fragments, revealing the dripping muddy bottom of the lake.
What does it mean to move mountains and fill seas?
What does it mean to have boundless divine abilities? Boundless magic power?
Hua Tiandu now provided the perfect interpretation.
To uproot a mountain peak and turn the entire water of a lake into water vapor in the clouds; this kind of divine ability was simply appalling. Fang Han knew that with his current abilities, he could not accomplish this. Not unless he cultivated to the Golden Core and refined the Ghost Emperor's Nine Ghosts Primordial Spirit might he possess this kind of magic power.
Deep at the bottom of the lake, one could indeed see something anomalous. Within the mud, a skeletal corpse, a full thousand zhang long and piled high with white bones, was faintly visible. It emitted heaven-shaking Pure Yang energy and a powerful coercion!
It was actually the corpse of an immemorial Heavenly Dragon! The skeletal remains!
Especially noticeable was that inside the mouth of this immemorial Heavenly Dragon, it seemed to still hold a jade tome secret manual.
"Fang Han! Snatch the skeletal remains of the immemorial Heavenly Dragon! Hurry up! Even if you don't want the Blood Dragon Crystal mountain peak or the Black Water King Snakes, you must definitely get this corpse. Although the vital energy of this immemorial Heavenly Dragon has dispersed, its bones are Supreme Treasures of Pure Yang. If I can refine it, I can leverage this skeleton to be reborn and transform into a dragon, massively enhancing my strength, to truly evolve the Bridge of Helplessness, or maybe even the Wheel of Reincarnation."
Seeing the thousand-zhang-long skeletal remains of the dragon corpse lying in the mud at the bottom of the lake, Yan could not help but roar madly. "To think we genuinely discovered the corpse of an immemorial Heavenly Dragon! Dragon bones! This luck is simply too good! Absolutely do not let Hua Tiandu obtain it. Otherwise, if he refines it and merges it into himself, he might just leverage the dragon power to break through to the Longevity Mystic Realm."
"Is that so?" Fang Han's heart skipped a beat.
"To think that underneath this mountain peak, there really are skeletal remains of an immemorial Heavenly Dragon! In the Dragon Transformation Pool of the Taiyi Sect, the bloodlines of those dragon seeds have all become impure, and they are not true Heavenly Dragons! Only a dragon that has cultivated to the Longevity Mystic Realm can be called a Heavenly Dragon! This truly is my fortuitous encounter! To be able to possess this corpse of an immemorial Heavenly Dragon. By painstakingly cultivating to absorb the dragon power, I will add another layer of certainty to breaking through to the Longevity Mystic Realm!"
Seeing the thousand-zhang-long dragon corpse in the mud at the bottom of the lake, an expression of wild ecstasy appeared on Hua Tiandu's face.
Simultaneously as he uprooted the "Blood Dragon Crystal" mountain peak, a subterranean cave was revealed beneath the mountain peak. Inside the subterranean cave, all kinds of brilliant lights flickered ceaselessly; obviously, it was exactly the hidden treasures collected by this immemorial Heavenly Dragon itself.
A mountain peak, a dragon corpse, treasures.
To an expert of the Longevity Mystic Realm, they carried an extremely powerful temptation.
