Chapter 373: Vengeful Spirit Transcended, Mysterious Crow

The fat Taoist priest, Yue Yunde, was the first Saint of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground over the past 1,000 years. He was also Zhang Longyuan’s first disciple.

When Yue Yunde had just joined the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, the sect was in decline and didn’t have many disciples. It had been completely unable to match up against the other sacred grounds.

After the two great prodigies Zhang Longyuan and Chu Longhe, there had been no one exceptional in the newer generations.

The only one who had been a bit more outstanding was Yue Yunde.

As the first Saint after Zhang Longyuan became the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, the sect naturally had high hopes and expectations for Yue Yunde.

Unfortunately, Yue Yunde’s innate potential was inferior to Zhang Longyuan and Chu Longhe’s. What could be done?

There was one way—Force-Feed Training!

It should be pointed out that Yue Yunde used to be an attractive youth. Although he was not as handsome as Shen Tian, his physique was definitely very good.

However, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus and the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader had kept feeding him all sorts of tonics and elixirs until he grew fat.

As for this “Force-Feed Training”, it had given some results.

Yue Yunde might have a full figure, but his lightning cultivation improved day by day.

And amongst his peers then, although he hadn’t been the top champion, he was still one of the more outstanding prodigies. He had been no embarrassment to the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader.

As Yue Yunde matured, he had realized that the tonics and elixirs he had been consuming had been hard to come by for his sect. He had realized how expensive and precious they were to his sect.

As a result, although he appeared nonchalant, he had sworn to find some way to repay the sect.

One day, he had inadvertently found a secret manual—Finding the Dragon Spirit Ore Sutra.

This secret manual listed a lot of knowledge on domains and Spirit Ores and how they possessed a lot of wondrous mysteries. If one followed the instructions on the manual, they could find many special areas within certain domains, which held the tombs of ancient practitioners.

Yes, this secret manual had been an eye-opener for Yue Yunde.

From then on, he had become obsessed with... robbing graves!

From Golden Core Perfected Ones to Sages, as long as they weren’t from especially notable families or powers, Yue Yunde would rob their graves.

How could we describe this? Robbing the rich to help the poor?

Robbing those rich dead guys to help his poor self!

And for the treasures which were of little use to him, Yue Yunde would offer them to the sacred ground.

It could be said that although this fellow didn’t look that decent, his contributions to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground might be even higher than those Heavenly Venerables and elders!

If not for Yue Yunde’s not-so-honorable methods, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader might have chosen him to take over his position.

And because he knew that he could never become the rightful Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, Yue Yunde didn’t feel any pressure to maintain any sort of image.

When robbing graves, he was even more shameless than Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus!

During his most rampant days, he had even raided the ancestral tomb of a certain sacred ground in Middle Ground. All because a grand elder from that sacred ground had mocked the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader.

As a result of that, the two sacred grounds had nearly gone to war with each other!

Luckily, the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty had stepped up to mediate and had the Sacred Leaders and Saints of both sides settle their conflict via a fair, one-to-one battle.

Yue Yunde had fought the other Saint and had been beaten black and blue all over, while his opponent had been charred black from Yue Yunde’s lightning technique.

Meanwhile, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and the other sacred leader had fought within the void for three days and three nights. But there had been no clear winner at the end.

Despite the indefinite outcomes, the conflict between the two sacred grounds had been more or less considered settled.

But Yue Yunde’s dishonorable actions had successfully turned the other sacred grounds against him.

Jixia Academy’s Fu Zi had personally brought that fellow to the academy and punished him to be locked in an isolation chamber for 100 years to reflect upon his offenses.

Now that 100 years had passed, and he was finally released from Jixia Academy, he had followed the main group to Immortal Abode Island to join in the fun.

This time, he was legally raiding a tomb!

This was because nearly all the Sages felt that this fellow was a professional tomb raider. If there was really something bizarre going on in the Golden Crow Thearch’s tomb, this fellow might really be of use.

It was a coincidence that Yue Yunde had really discovered something off.

This tomb was very evil and unlucky.

...

Rumble!

Shen Tian and the vengeful spirit inside the black-red flames continued to fight.

The power of his Ocean Divine Hammer was enhanced to the maximum by the First Essence Heavy Water.

And leveraging upon the power of the Mixed Divine Lightning, Shen Tian was able to hold his own against that vengeful spirit.

Even though the vengeful spirit possessed the power of a Sage, it did not have the intelligence of a true Sage. It could only rely on raw basic attacking instincts. Even so, that was formidable enough.

After all, this was the power of a Sage. If it was some other Heavenly Venerable, they would have already been torn to shreds.

Star-Smashing Hammer!

Moon-Lifting Hammer!

Blazing Sun Hammer!

Falling Day Hammer!

Lightning Sound Hammer!

Great Heavenly Dragon Hammer!

Boundless Demon Defeating Hammer!

Shen Tian’s Longyuan Divine Armor dazzled. He looked like a golden sun.

And those heinous black-red flames looked like a blood-red sun. The two continued to battle fiercely in that tunnel.

“Master, the power of that vengeful spirit comes from this special domain and vengeful aura. You can try using the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk to cleanse his vengeful aura.”

The Hariti Rosary Beads vibrated as Jiu’er’s voice rang out in Shen Tian’s mind.

Shen Tian nodded. He had already guessed that.

But it was rare to meet an opponent whose battle prowess was somewhere between that of a Sage and a Heavenly Venerable. Shen Tian wanted to continue sparring a bit longer.

After all, Heavenly Venerables were no challenge to Shen Tian now.

“You actually look rather pitiful. Never mind, I will help you transcend!”

Feeling the black-red flames’ fearsome murderous intent, Shen Tian shook his head quietly.

He forced the vengeful spirit backward with a sudden vicious strike and simultaneously took out a silver jade plate, spinning it slowly.

The jade plate became bigger, and the six lines of runes carved upon it glowed with a wondrous divine light.

A faint divine Buddhist chanting could be heard in the air as if a Perfected Immortal was quietly performing a transcendence.

...

“Immortal... Immortal artifact!”

Yue Yunde widened his eyes incredulously when he saw Shen Tian’s Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk.

He had been raiding tombs for hundreds of years and had seen quite a number of good treasures. He had even come across more than a few Sage artifacts.

But he had never even laid eyes on an Immortal artifact before!

Junior Brother, how did he get such a treasure!?

As Yue Yunde stewed in his envy, Shen Tian activated the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk.

The vengeful aura within those black-red flames was being visibly cleansed by the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk and transformed into merit energy.

Meanwhile, that black-red fire also started to transform into a reddish-gold color and was absorbed into Shen Tian’s body using his Tinder Sutra to be merged with his True Sun Fire.

Shen Tian could feel that as more and more Golden Crow Flames were being absorbed, his True Sun Fire source was also rapidly being strengthened.

And it felt really, really good.

As the vengeful aura continued to be dissolved, those black-red flames became less intense.

The true face of the monster hidden inside those flames was gradually revealed to Shen Tian and Yue Yunde.

And that monster was a crow!

A reddish-gold crow!
