Chapter 665 - Returning to the Source
Chapter 665 – Returning to the Source
Three years ago, even though Yang Junshan had confidently told Adept Qiyang, when Adept Qiyang was ready to advance, he could also possibly advance his Profound Constellation Realm.
In actuality, a year ago, when Qi Yang and the rest entered the lava lake, although Yang Junshan had indeed borrowed the power of the source of spirit water to push his cultivation to the peak of Gangli Accumulation Realm, in reality, he was different from the Adept Qiyang who was ready to advance in Heavenly Dipper Realm at any time. Although Yang Junshan had made up his mind at that time to attack the Profound Constellation Realm, he was still lacking in confidence regarding the amount of resources he had accumulated.
Even though he had already levelled up his Gangli Accumulation Realm for several years and refined a Peach of Immortality before, increasing his cultivation by ten years and now with the assistance of forty-nine more Source Water droplets, for the Mountain Nine Toughness Spell, this sort of origin energy was extremely important to him. It was not necessarily a good thing to see a cultivation technique whose cultivation had been accumulating for a long time, and the greatest possibility was that after Yang Junshan had levelled up, his cultivation would most likely stagnate at the Profound Constellation Realm for many years or even over ten years.
Fortunately, Yang Junshan was blessed by the heavens. After using the village protection formation’s Amethyst Thunder Light Stone to wipe the Dao Ancestor’s imprint off that rich fourth generation cultivator’s storage treasure, Yang Junshan found a bottle of Golden Wind Jade inside.
This kind of Heaven and Earth Spirit Treasures was known throughout the entire cultivation world to be especially used to strengthen one’s origin and spirit. Even if any sect in the cultivation world of the Yuzhou were to hide it in their clan’s secret treasury, it was likely that only the top ranked sect in the cultivation world like the Purple Wind Sect, Xiao Xianger, would be able to casually carry it with them.
With the wind and jade in his hands, Yang Junshan’s previous worries from forcefully assailing the Profound Constellation Realm were completely swept away. He used a year of time to break through and stabilize his cultivation, so he had enough time.
Yang Junshan had also erupted with Profound Constellation Realm all of a sudden, shocking Zhang Yueming, and when he saw Zhang Yueming’s face filled with shock, he was even more pleased. From the Banyan Mountain to now, Yang Junshan had always known that Zhang Yueming was the most outstanding third generation disciple of the Heaven-Shaken Sect, so he had always been chasing after Zhang Yueming, and had indeed played the role of an unbeknownst to Zhang Yueming.
Every time Yang Junshan’s cultivation improved, he would realize that there was already a disciple of the Heaven-Shaken Sect walking in front of him. However, Yang Junshan did not feel discouraged, and continued to pursue the footsteps of a genius, and he also knew, that although he would always fall behind Zhang Yueming, in reality, the gap between the two of them would constantly shrink, from falling behind by three steps, to falling by two to two steps, and finally to the Coldjade mountain range. Yang Junshan’s cultivation was already lacking by half a step, and it was only at that time did Yang Junshan deliberately keep a low profile, and finally walked into Zhang Yueming’s line of sight.
Until today, when the two of them simultaneously hid their cultivation and entered Buried Sky Ruins, and as if they were fated to meet, they displayed their cultivation levels at the same time to determine the victor, and Yang Junshan finally caught up with the number one genius in Heaven-Shaken Sect.
In the entire Yuzhou’s cultivation world, he was the leader of the third generation of cultivators. Even among the cultivators of the same generation in the entire cultivation world, he firmly held the first group.
The ability to instantly overthrow one’s own trump card was truly too damaging to the cultivators’ morale, so much so that this time, Yang Junshan took the initiative and took the initiative first, suppressing Zhang Yueming at a disadvantage.
Relying on the might of the Nine Ruins of the True Handle, Yang Junshan controlled two treasures at the same time, causing the Mountain Monarch Seal to firmly suppress the heavy blade, but the double-faced axe was able to unleash the entire axe art that Yang Junshan had evolved from the spirit of breaking mountain to its fullest extent. Streams of cold light were slashed down likhousand kilograms, if it wasn’t for the fact that the two of them fighting in a desert, then perhaps even the entire mountain would have been torn apart by Yang Junshan.
Even though Yang Junshan had the upper hand, he did not relax his guard. Yang Junshan knew that Zhang Yueming’s biggest trump card, the low rank treasure that he had never used it from the beginning, was probably waiting for the final turn.
Aesult, Yang Junshan suppressed Zhang Yueming even more, and wanted to force Zhang Yueming to use all of his trump cards.
“Yang Junshan, don’t go too far!”
“Brother Zhang, why do you say that? We can only decide the outcome of the battle. If Brother Zhang admits that he is unable to beat me, then we will leave. I will not hold back!”
Zhang Yueming laughed coldly: “What a joke, if I am to leave, will you be able to hold on?”
Yang Junshan laughed: “Since that is the case, should I send brother Zhang off?”
“Don’t even think about it. The battle isn’t over yet, and the outcome is still unknown!”
Zhang Yueming roared out, and a foot long stone tablet with two triangles at each end appeared in his hands. The side of the stone tablet was engraved with complicated and delicate patterns, and on the front was carved a huge “Earth” character, and on the back was a “Yuan” character. This was the low grade treasure token Zhang Yueming had obtained from the Cao Xun Secret Realm in the Coldjade mountain range.
In an instant, Yang Junshan felt that the double-sided axe seemed to be suppressed, just like how he used magnetic precious light to restrict the opponent’s abilities, and this kind of strange power also descended on the Mountain Monarch Seal’s body. Unexpectedly, a loud tiger roar came from the Mountain Monarch Seal, and the energy of heaven and earth formed the outline of a giant tiger above the Mountain Monarch Seal, but was immediately dispersed by the Yang and Zhang’s surging spirit energy, but even so, the Mountain Monarch Seal was able to break free from the suppression of an Inferior Grade Treasure.
“Fall!”
Although Zhang Yueming was surprised that the Mountain Monarch Seal was able to struggle free from the suppression of the Earth Origin Skill, he was still confident in the treasure in his hands.
Yang Junshan focused his gaze, the power of the double-sided giant axe was greatly reduced by the spirit of the treasure, the Mountain Monarch Seal was also struggling to suppress the heavy sword, as for the snake spine bow and snake wrenching, these two spirit artifacts were not even comparable to the double-sided giant axe, for a moment, Yang Junshan seemed to have sunk into a situation where he was out of skills.
“Haha, Brother Yang, the one who should admit defeat is you!”
Yang Junshan’s expression turned cold, and said: “That may not be the case!”
As Yang Junshan punched out, all sorts of potentials were triggered in an instant. A three inch long hole suddenly appeared on Yang Junshan’s arm, and fresh blood splattered out.
“Shocking Stone Fist, you!” Zhang Yueming exclaimed.
However, Yang Junshan “Hehe” laughed, and said: “This is the first time that I’ve studied it for such a long time, but I never thought that I’d accidentally mastered it!”
Shocking Stone Fist had hidden its potential, the moment its fist was unleashed, it seemed like there was no movement, but the moment it actually hit the target, it would truly be heaven collapsing and earth shattering.
An invisible force spread out in all directions and completely flattened the two sand dunes that were in two pieces of the desert. The Earth Yuan Token was sent tumbling through the air by the fist power in mid-air and the Falling Mountain Strike was completely destroyed, even though it was cast using a low-grade treasure as a medium.
But at the same time, the pain that suddenly appeared on his fist made Yang Junshan’s face turn white. Under the backlash of the ability, Yang Junshan clearly felt two of the five fingers on his right hand breaking.
The blade that was being suppressed by the Mountain Monarch Seal took this chance to struggle free, turning in midair and striking back, but in the process, it was caught up by the double-sided axe, the two Spirit Treasures immediately formed a ball, the technique the two of them cultivated was extremely powerful, although the battle between the treasures was not intense, but every strike would release a great amount of power, with the two of them fighting in the center, constantly moving in different directions, gradually forming a huge basin.
Zhang Yueming’s magic treasure was a grade higher, and Yang Junshan’s cultivation was stronger than his, so in that moment, they were evenly matched.
The two of them fought multiple times, both of them releasing their trump cards, the sound getting louder and louder, time growing longer and longer, this desert may be quiet and desolate, but it was hard not to attract the attention of others, the Mountain Monarch Seal purposely releasing her heavy sword was just there to be the first to launch an attack.
At the same time, Zhang Yueming had also realized Yang Junshan’s plan. He recalled his Earth Origin Stele and prepared to deal with it, but an unstoppable force had already soared up into the sky.
“Heaven Shattering Earth Seal!”
Zhang Yueming let out a strange cry, and the Earth Yuan Token in his hands similarly floated above his head.
“Immoveable Mountain Art?”
Yang Junshan was also astonished, but he never thought that Zhang Yueming would actually cultivate this kind of Precious Techniques and Divine Powers.
Among the top hundred divine abilities on the Precious Techniques and Divine Powers Ranking, there were actually two that were specialized in defense. The Precious Techniques and Divine Powers was ranked on the Ranking, which was unique amongst all the other types of divine abilities and other defensive divine abilities, and was known as the “Dual Defense divine abilities”!
The first was the Immovable Mountains Divine Art, which was ranked eighty-eighth on the Precious Techniques and Divine Powers Ranking; the second was the Art of Forging the Metal Soup, which was ranked seventy-fourth on the Precious Techniques and Divine Powers Ranking.
Although there was a saying that the top hundred divine abilities on the Precious Techniques and Divine Powers Ranking, other than the Heavenly Dipper Realm cultivators, could not cultivate in the cultivation world, the truth was that Yang Junshan himself had mastered the Overbearing Earth Seal while he was still in the Gangli Accumulation Realm, so it was not surprising that he had mastered the Immovable Mountain Art. Furthermore, if Zhang Yueming had backed the sect down, if the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s thousands of years of legacies did not have any secret techniques to assist Zhang Yueming in his cultivation, even Yang Junshan himself would not believe it.
The two divine abilities, one of which inherited the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s precious technique while the other one was the head of the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s defensive divine ability. The two divine abilities, one of which inherited the Heaven-Shaken Sect’s precious technique, the other of which became the head of the defenses, the two spears and shields clashed together.
“Haha, Yang Junshan, how is it? I, Zhang, also havop 100 divine ability ranking. Even the Heaven Shattering Earth Seal might not be able to break through my Immovable Mountain Art! ” Zhang Yueming’s hair was in disarray, and he looked to be in an exceptionally sorry state.
Yang Junshan’s expression was also not good. With a cold snort, he said: “It’s jusurtle shell, if it wasn’t for the treasure in your hand, how could it have blocked my Mountain Monarch Seal?”
“So what? The Mountain Monarch Seal in your hands also has the qualifications to be promoted treasure, but even if it becomes a low rank treasure, can it really break my Divine Guardian Technique?”
Yang Junshan suddenly laughed, and being looked at by Zhang Yueming caused him to panic, but he forced himself to remain calm: “What are you laughing at?”
“I’m just laughing at your turtle shell. With the true power of the Art of Immovable Mountains, how could it only be ranked eighty-eighth? Don’t you know the reason?”
Zhang Yueming suddenly thought of something, and his face instantly changed. Yang Junshan suddenly flew backwards, and landed in a sand valley more than three hundred meters away, the magnetic energy around his body revolved and quickly formed a huge tornado on the spot, and as the tornado dispersed, the yellow sand around him started to fill up the hole in the middle. In Yang Junshan’s hands, there was a milky-white stone the size of a human head.
When Zhang Yueming saw the stone in Yang Junshan’s hand, his intestines had almost turned green from regret. He could only gnash his teeth and change his tone as he said, “Origin Returning Stone!”
Yang Junshan laughed out loud, and said: “Brother Zhang, you can slowly disperse your technique, I will go first!”
