"Every bone in his body is enough to refine a Heaven-Rank Spiritual Treasure. So, once his strength continues to break through, I'm afraid taking him apart would directly serve as a Pure Origin Treasure."
As Yan spoke, it couldn't help but look at Little Marten, who was currently looking at it with an incomprehensible gaze, leaving Yan somewhat baffled. However, it continued to explain to Lin Dong.
"As for his heart, I can't see through it either. It should also be considered a rare object!"
Lin Dong's expression turned strange as he listened to Yan's explanation. The way Yan was talking, it felt like it wanted to dismantle the Young Clan Leader. This wasn't a question of whether it could be done, or even whether it dared to do it, but whether it dared to even think about it.
At least, Lin Dong himself didn't dare to think about such a thing.
"Ahem, Ancestral Stone Spirit, what do you say, what is he doing summoning the Nirvana Fire? Seeking death? Doesn't seem like it!"
Little Marten felt that they couldn't continue discussing this dangerous topic. Otherwise, if that guy heard them, it felt that its Demon Spirit wouldn't be able to withstand the shock.
"Seeking death? Have you ever seen a peerless genius seeking death for no reason?"
After hearing Little Marten's words, Yan couldn't help but roll its eyes. How did this little mouse hiding in its body feel like it was just here for comic relief?
"His talent is probably even higher than Ice Master's, how could he seek death himself? If I'm not mistaken, he's probably tempering his body, right?"
At the end, Yan's tone was a little unconfident. It had never seen anyone dare to use Nirvana Fire to temper their body. That stuff could really burn people to death. Even with a Nascent Soul, it couldn't withstand being casually burned by Nirvana Fire.
Of course, this was also because most people only condensed their Nascent Soul after undergoing nine Nirvana Tribulations.
However, the person in front of it was the only genius it had ever seen who could truly comprehend the true meaning of Nirvana. This level of talent was even stronger than the Ice Master, who was said to have the number one talent in the world by its master. It seemed understandable that he could do things that ordinary people couldn't.
Under Yan's gaze, strands of flesh and blood were actually growing on the skeleton that was being burned by the endless Nirvana Fire. Even the Nirvana Fire couldn't burn it away.
This was because of the red pillar of light that descended from the blood moon. It contained extremely terrifying vitality. Just as Lin Xuan had guessed, it did indeed contain the life force of the Four Sacred Beasts.
Because the Four Sacred Beasts and the Four Ferocious Beasts were born in response to the rules of heaven and earth, their remaining life force was able to remain intact over endless years by relying on the power of the rules contained within the life force.
Being in that red pillar of light, Lin Xuan's body, which was only a skeleton, continuously absorbed the massive life force, rapidly growing flesh.
When the flesh grew out, that dazzling silver hair fluttered behind his head once again. The originally surging Nirvana Fire once again engulfed Lin Xuan's body. Everything once again turned to ashes, leaving only that skeleton, a Nascent Soul, and a Sword Heart.
However, whether it was an illusion or not, many people could see that the light of that Sword-shaped Nascent Soul seemed to be even more dazzling, and that skeleton seemed to have become even more solid.
In the city, Yan, hiding in Lin Dong's body, looked at the figure constantly burning and growing in the Nirvana Fire, and felt a particularly strange feeling.
It felt like the one sitting there wasn't a person, but a Sword. After being tempered by the Nirvana Fire, it was then hammered with the massive life force, and then continued to be tempered, continued to be hammered...
The whole process was like the process of a mortal forging a Sword, repeatedly, thereby constantly increasing the Sword's sharpness and toughness.
"Tsk tsk, Sword Saint is indeed Sword Saint, even more ruthless than you, Lin Dong. This kind of burning pain of the flesh being completely incinerated, hiss, is even more unbearable than the soul crushing of the mental mill you experienced before!"
Little Marten exclaimed. As for why it was so sure, it was because it had used the mental mill before. Its evaluation was that it would never use it again in this lifetime. As for the Nirvana Fire incinerating the flesh, it didn't even dare to think about trying it.
It should be known that incinerating the flesh doesn't just cause pain to the flesh, but also burns the soul and Nascent Soul.
More importantly, the mental mill only required enduring it desperately, at most just fainting. But like Lin Xuan, being burned by Nirvana Fire required staying awake and calm. Otherwise, it would not only fail to temper the body, but would also leave behind incurable hidden injuries.
But Lin Xuan was simply a ruthless person among ruthless people. He had been tempered so many times, but he hadn't cried out in pain even once. He hadn't even frowned after each time his body was restored, and he had directly continued to temper his body.
For Lin Xuan, he had experienced this kind of pain countless times when he practiced Sword with the help of the system a long time ago, so it was no longer anything.
Ancient Battlefield, at the center, on the top of that towering mountain, dozens of figures with majestic auras were sitting cross-legged, quietly cultivating.
They were the powerhouses sent by the various super sects to recruit disciples. The weakest among them possessed the strength of the Seven Yuan Nirvana Realm, while the strongest seven were the seven Life Profound Realm experts from the Eastern Xuan Region's eight super sects.
As for why only seven Life Profound Realm experts came from the eight super sects, that was unknown.
Suddenly, the dozens of figures opened their eyes, looking up at the sky in astonishment. They saw the blood moon, which had been silent for countless years, suddenly cast a red light, falling towards a certain place in the northwest direction.
"Huh, what's this?"
One of the robe-clad old men exclaimed in surprise, with a hint of confusion in his eyes. A beautiful woman sitting not far from him frowned slightly, and then, as if she had thought of something, speculated.
"Could it be that someone has deciphered the secret that has been passed down in the Ancient Battlefield?"
There were many legends about the Ancient Battlefield, but no one knew whether they were true or false. All they knew was that this Ancient Battlefield had many ancient treasures and contained great secrets, but no one knew what they were.
In the past, in order to compete for this Ancient Battlefield, the Eastern Xuan Region had even gone to war with the Western Xuan Region a long time ago. In the end, the Eastern Xuan Region won the Ancient Battlefield.
But even so, the Western Xuan Region had always been unwilling to give up until it had settled down in recent years.
This shows the importance of this Ancient Battlefield.
However, although there were many legends about the Ancient Battlefield, no one had known any clues about the ancient secrets of the Ancient Battlefield for so many years, which may also be related to the fact that the inheritance of those ancient super sects in the Ancient Battlefield had not been obtained.
But today, the blood moon, which had been silent for endless years, suddenly moved, which naturally led to speculation.
At this moment, after hearing the words of the beautiful woman in the willow dress, a man with slightly gray hair on the side sneered disapprovingly.
"Tch, Fairy Liu is really joking. It's not clear whether the secret of this Ancient Battlefield is true or false, so you can conclude that someone has deciphered the secret? Even if this secret is true, countless geniuses have joined it for so many years, but no one has deciphered this secret. How can a mediocre person from a lower dynasty in that remote place be qualified to decipher the secret of the Ancient Battlefield?"
The entrance to the Ancient Battlefield was related to the strength of the various dynasties. The stronger the dynasty, the more powerful the space teleportation spiritual array it established. Not only could it teleport more people in, but even the location was closer to the center.
After all, the Ancient Battlefield opened once every twenty years. Every time you entered it, you naturally couldn't waste the opportunity. The more central the location, the more abundant the Nirvana Qi, and the more opportunities there were. Sometimes, the landing point might be the ruins of an Ancient Sect. This kind of thing had happened before.
The beautiful woman in the willow dress turned her head to look at her side when she heard the words, but she was unwilling to pay attention to the other party.
The beautiful woman in the willow dress was one of the seven Life Profound Realm experts present, and naturally came from one of the eight super sects. The identity of the person who could speak to her like this must not be low.
From the black sun logo on the white robe of the man with gray hair, it could be seen that this person was the Yuan Gate, the head of the eight super sects in the Eastern Xuan Region, and the only Nirvana Realm expert among the eight super sects, merely an attendant of the Yuan Gate.
It was precisely because he came from the Yuan Gate that the man was clearly weaker, but when he spoke, he completely dared not to take the beautiful woman in the willow dress seriously.
"Hehe, what people couldn't do before doesn't mean everyone can't do it. Also, Liu Tong, don't think that you can interrupt at will just because the Yuan Gate is behind you. All of us here are elders and hall masters. When is it your turn, a mere attendant, to interrupt?"
Although the beautiful woman in the willow dress did not speak, the robe-clad old man who spoke first retorted unceremoniously. The disdainful tone made the Yuan Gate attendant named Liu Tong's forehead veins jump with anger.
"Tch, what's wrong, Attendant Liu Tong is not convinced? Then come and compete with this hall master. Although this hall master doesn't have the strength to kill your Yuan Gate's Death Profound Realm elders across realms, it's still easy to teach a mere Nirvana Realm Peak attendant a lesson!"
Seeing that Liu Tong still seemed a little unconvinced, the robe-clad old man sneered even more, saying without any mercy, making Liu Tong's face even more ugly, and he snorted coldly.
"Hmph, Wu Dao, what are you so arrogant about? Even that vile creature Zhou Tong drank his hatred at the hands of my Yuan Gate's sect leader?"
The other six people on the side, including the beautiful woman in the willow dress, did not speak when they saw this, but just watched the show from the side.
The old man Wu Dao came from the Dao Sect and was the deputy hall master of the Desolate Hall of the Dao Sect. Zhou Tong, whom he mentioned, was his senior brother, and he was also a ruthless person who personally killed his way to the Yuan Gate and killed several Death Profound Realm elders of the Yuan Gate.
It could be said that a hundred years ago, Zhou Tong was the undisputed number one genius in the Eastern Xuan Region!
Because of Zhou Tong's matter, the Dao Sect and the Yuan Gate became mortal enemies, and they had been fighting constantly for a hundred years.
"Hmph! If you dare to talk nonsense again, believe it or not, this old man will cripple you now!"
That Old Man Wu Dao's eyes flashed with a sinister glint the moment he heard Liu Tong's words. Within his body, boundless Origin Power surged out like an endless tide, sweeping in all directions.
The surrounding powerhouses from other super sects, seeing this, quickly distanced themselves. Only the remaining six Life Profound Realm experts remained seated, unmoved. However, their gazes towards Liu Tong were somewhat disdainful.
Everyone knew that Yuan Gate had resorted to despicable means in the past, cruelly killing that person's dao companion. In the end, it enraged that person to directly storm Yuan Gate to avenge their dao companion.
The people present were all considered peers, and they sincerely admired Zhou Tong in their hearts. Such a dazzling and talented prodigy of heaven had died by such despicable means, which was truly regrettable.
In addition, Yuan Gate had always acted domineeringly and powerfully, and the relationship between other super sects and Yuan Gate was extremely poor. Therefore, when that Old Man Wu Dao erupted, no one stood up to mediate.
After hearing Old Man Wu Dao's words, Liu Tong's pupils suddenly constricted, and then he let out a furious roar.
"Cripple me? How dare you!"
As he spoke, an aura of Nirvana Realm Peak swept out directly, but it was always suppressed by Old Man Wu Dao, making Liu Tong's face somewhat unsightly.
Old Man Wu Dao stared at Liu Tong, his aura constantly gathering, pressing down on Liu Tong's forehead, which had already begun to seep with cold sweat, but he still did not make a move.
Liu Tong glared at Old Man Wu Dao with a fierce expression, but his somewhat evasive eyes weakened his aura. After all, Liu Tong was also worried that Old Man Wu Dao would really go crazy and directly cripple him.
Fortunately, just when both sides were in a bit of a dilemma, the beautiful woman in the willow dress who had spoken earlier spoke up to dissuade them.
"Alright, Hall Master Wu Dao, you are also the master of a hall, why bother arguing with such a person?"
"Humph!"
Old Man Wu Dao snorted coldly upon hearing this, taking advantage of the situation.
"Today, I will give Fairy Liu some face, but some trash should still take good care of their mouths, and be careful of misfortune coming from their mouths!"
Faced with Old Man Wu Dao's threat, Liu Tong was extremely aggrieved, but he did not dare to retort. He was really afraid that he would stimulate Old Man Wu Dao again, and the latter would be like that madman back then, disregarding everything and directly killing him on the spot. Immediately, he changed the subject.
"Humph, this Attendant observes that the red light seems like a sign of a relic or some kind of Spiritual Treasure being born."
After hearing Liu Tong's words, including Old Man Wu Dao, the faces of the super sect powerhouses all revealed a hint of strangeness. Obviously, what Liu Tong said was not impossible.
Even, it could be said that it was more likely than the beautiful woman in the willow dress's previous guess.
"Such an anomaly, could it be a Pure Origin Treasure?"
Among the seven Life Profound Realm experts, the old man who exuded Yin energy suddenly spoke. From the special Yin energy on his body, it could be seen that this person was a powerhouse from Ten Thousand Puppets Gate who dealt with Puppet Talismans.
"It's really possible, in that case..."
Among the seven people, the strong and sturdy man was just about to say something when he heard Liu Tong, whose face changed slightly, speak again.
"Hehe, everyone, this Ancient Battlefield is an opportunity that we specially left for these juniors. In that case, why don't we let these geniuses from the various dynasties compete for it?"
Liu Tong's meaning was very obvious, that was, they would not interfere, and let the participating geniuses compete for the opportunity.
After hearing Liu Tong's words, the seven people couldn't help but frown, obviously understanding Liu Tong's thoughts. After all, he was only at Nirvana Realm Peak, how could he compete with others? If those dynasty geniuses were allowed to compete, then Yuan Gate could also rely on its title as the head of the eight super sects to bring that person into the sect. At that time, the treasure would naturally belong to them.
"Yes, yes, Attendant Liu is right!"
Just when Old Man Wu Dao wanted to speak, some powerhouses from super sects who followed Yuan Gate's lead immediately echoed, forcing Old Man Wu Dao and the beautiful woman in the willow dress to agree.
However, although they agreed, the other seven people directly left Hundred Dynasty Mountain and headed towards the Northern Region, obviously intending to recruit that person into their sect in advance. Liu Tong also followed suit when he saw this.
Just when a group of super sect powerhouses were rushing towards the northern region because of the red light that fell from the sky, Lin Xuan, who caused all of this above that city, finally came to the end of his cultivation.
"Screech!!"
As Lin Xuan's physical body recovered once more, the Nirvana Fire did not engulf him again. Instead, it left Lin Xuan's body and transformed into a massive vermilion flame divine bird, emitting a shocking cry. Then, it began to circle around Lin Xuan, whose eyes were tightly shut.
With the vermilion flame divine bird circling, waves of special energy continuously surged from the blood moon overhead towards the space where Lin Xuan was located on the ground.
"It's almost over!"
Inside Lin Dong's body, Yan looked at the otherworldly and peerless figure and couldn't help but speak. Lin Dong hesitated upon hearing this and softly asked, "Yan, did Young Clan Leader obtain the Vermilion Bird Sacred Beast's inheritance?"
"No!"
"No?"
As soon as Yan finished speaking, Little Marten and Lin Dong exclaimed in unison, their eyes filled with surprise. They then heard Yan slowly and methodically say, "He didn't take the inheritance left by the Four Sacred Beasts, but he obtained the inheritance of the Four Sacred Beasts!"
"Can you stop being so dramatic when you speak, you spirit? What exactly is going on?"
Little Marten couldn't help but roll his eyes, muttering in dissatisfaction. Lin Dong also nodded in agreement. After having Yan, he realized that Little Marten was actually pretty good before. Unfortunately, this Little Marten always liked to screw things up.
"It's just that, after comprehending the inheritance of the Four Sacred Beasts, he chose to leave the inheritance of the Four Sacred Beasts behind. So, if you have the opportunity in the future, you can come back here and try to take the inheritance of the Four Sacred Beasts."
Yan said softly, his gaze towards Lin Xuan carrying a hint of amazement. As expected of the peerless genius who rejected him back then. This peerless arrogance is not something ordinary people can possess.
He rejected the Ancestral Stone, rejected the Ancestor Symbol, and rejected the inheritance of the Four Sacred Beasts because he was confident in his heart, confident that he could reach that level, and even surpass it!
"Screech!!"
After Yan finished speaking, the vermilion flame divine bird once again raised its neck and let out a high-pitched cry. After circling Lin Xuan twice, it finally carried its sacred aura and flew along the red beam of light towards the blood moon in the sky.
After the flame divine bird disappeared, the red beam of light finally gradually faded and eventually vanished.
After the red beam of light disappeared, Lin Xuan, with his silver-white long hair, slowly floated down, his aura as if fused with the heavens and earth.
The originally powerful aura completely disappeared. Everyone, looking at the immortal-like figure in white, felt a special sensation in their hearts. It was as if the Nirvana Qi between heaven and earth moved and undulated like a tide with the breathing of the white-clothed youth.
It felt as if all the Nirvana Qi were respecting their master.
"He's not far from truly mastering the Nirvana True Meaning now. What a perverted talent. Even the Ice Master is far inferior to him."
Looking at Lin Xuan's figure, Yan couldn't help but click his tongue and sigh softly.
