Chapter 975: Chapter 514: Eighth Life: Clashing Head-On with Celestial Mandate, Dragon Bone Soul-Slaying Banner! (Part 2)
"Sect Master, I will go assist Elder Li."
Having experienced countless reincarnations, with his battle experience, Lu Yuan could instantly tell that Li Shouzhuo was no match for the Taixuan Sect Ancestor.
He hurriedly explained and then unfurled his Wind Thunder Profound Wings, approaching the battlefield ahead.
"Kid, you’re just in time. The reason my Taixuan Sect has fallen to such a state is all because of your crime!"
"Today, I will personally slay you to console the spirits of my sect’s disciples in heaven!"
Seeing Lu Yuan voluntarily enter the fight, the Taixuan Sect Ancestor was not angry but delighted. He immediately turned his hand and summoned a White Bone Soul Banner.
The entire body of this Soul Banner was carved from dragon bone and inscribed with numerous eerie patterns. Even an ordinary cultivator would feel utterly uncomfortable at just a glance.
Initially, the Soul Banner was only palm-sized, but as the Taixuan Sect Ancestor poured a massive amount of mana into it, the banner rapidly expanded.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a hundred-zhang long Soul Banner, towering proudly in the void.
As the Soul Banner danced.
Fierce winds howled, spectral figures loomed.
It was as if the gates to the Nine Nether Hell had been opened, countless vengeful spirits surged forth, poised to devour all flesh and vitality!
At the same time.
A soul-chilling cold spread abruptly across the world, making it feel as if one were truly in hell, unable to stop shivering.
Dragon Bone Soul-Slaying Banner!
It is said that when the Taixuan Sect Ancestor was young, he had a great opportunity, accidentally obtaining a dragon bone in an extremely yin place.
Unlike ordinary flood dragons, this bone came from a genuine True Dragon, despite having been dead for unknown millennia.
Yet the surface of this dragon bone still carried a trace of Dragon Qi, definitely qualifying as a Supreme Treasure!
Most importantly, this bone had been nurtured in that yin place for thousands of years, absorbing countless Yin Qi and souls, making it an exceptional material for refining Soul Dao treasures.
After acquiring this bone, the Taixuan Sect Ancestor painstakingly refined it over hundreds of years, finally turning it into a Dragon Bone Soul-Slaying Banner.
With this banner, he was unbeatable among peers, rapidly becoming the second Half-Step Celestial Destiny Great Power of the Great Li Dynasty.
Only the Great Li Ancestor, blessed with a thousand-year dynasty fortune, could boost his own combat power.
Otherwise, in pure strength, the Great Li Ancestor might not be the Taixuan Sect Ancestor’s match!
"Hoo~"
As the Taixuan Sect Ancestor had just summoned the Dragon Bone Soul-Slaying Banner.
An unidentifiable yin wind suddenly swept across, causing many Cyan Cloud Sect disciples of lesser power to feel their divine souls shake, their minds going blank.
Soon after.
Their bodies softened, collapsing to the ground, forever losing all consciousness.
Not just ordinary disciples, even those with deep cultivation like Li Shouzhuo were stiffened by the yin wind.
Feeling as if his divine soul was frozen, his reaction was clumsy and sluggish, with slower thought processes.
Yet, Lu Yuan was well-prepared for this yin wind.
The Three-Colored Treasure Lotus in the depths of his Soul Palace spun slightly, scattering scintillating light, ensuring his divine soul was unaffected and remained clearheaded.
Not just that.
A cluster of Three-Colored Divine Fire suddenly emerged from his body, growing rapidly in the wind, transforming into a raging sea of flames seemingly capable of annihilating all specters.
The eerie and enigmatic yin wind barely touched the Three-Colored Divine Fire before seemingly being scorched, emitting black smoke and piercingly horrific howls.
"A mere Nirvana Seventh Layer ant can actually resist my Dragon Bone Soul-Slaying Banner? It seems you’ve gained quite a lot from the Celestial Mandate Inheritance!"
The Taixuan Sect Ancestor fixated on the Three-Colored Fire Sea, a glint of greed flashing in his eyes.
Master Lingxu’s cultivation reached the heavens, being among the strongest of the Celestial Destiny Great Powers, with half a foot already in the Void Realm.
To such beings, merely extending a finger could easily crush a novice like the Taixuan Sect Ancestor who just entered the Celestial Fate Realm.
But if he could acquire the Celestial Mandate Inheritance left behind by Master Lingxu, his strength would undoubtedly soar again, reaching unimaginable heights!
"You’ve got some tricks, kid, but your cultivation is too weak. This Celestial Mandate Inheritance should belong to me!"
The Taixuan Sect Ancestor sneered coldly, grabbing the Dragon Bone Soul-Slaying Banner, channeling most of his mana into it.
"Boom!"
Under the drive of boundless mana.
The Dragon Bone Soul-Slaying Banner seemed to come alive, unleashing an unprecedented brilliant glow.
The runic inscriptions on the banner’s surface swiftly moved, like an Ancient True Dragon awakening fast.
As the talisman light surged.
All the mana poured into the soul-binding staff, eventually manifesting into the illusion of a true dragon!
"Roar!"
The true dragon illusion stretched a thousand feet long, despite being just a fragment of dragon bone, its figure exceedingly ethereal and transparent.
Yet the overwhelming dragon’s might it emitted was terrifying to the extreme, akin to an invisible mountain pressing on everyone’s hearts.
Making everyone present feel suffocated, as if a great calamity was imminent!
"Has the Dragon Bone Soul-Slaying Banner fully awakened?"
Looking at the overwhelmingly oppressive true dragon, Li Shouzhuo and Han Qingxuan’s faces turned exceedingly grim.
The ancient true dragon once dominated the starry skies, being one of the most powerful entities in this world.
Although this dragon bone has been eroded by time, losing most of its power.
Even so, it is still not something they can contend with!
But at this point, Li Shouzhuo can only brace himself to fight.
"Go!"
He formed a seal and shot a talisman like lightning towards the true dragon illusion.
At the same time.
A formidable sealing power rapidly spread, enveloping an area of a hundred miles, attempting to confine the true dragon illusion.
However, as the true dragon illusion constantly struggled and resisted, the God-Banning Talisman, usually invincible and even capable of sealing the Great Qiankun Shifting Talisman, lost its effect at this moment.
The true dragon illusion roared to the sky, stirring the winds and clouds, abruptly unleashing a ground-shattering dragon roar.
The visible sound waves lifted ripples in the void, causing all the mountains below to crumble inch by inch, turning into ruins.
Some disciples of Cyan Cloud Sect, who were too weak in cultivation, had their eardrums shattered directly, their heads exploding with a bang into a mist of blood!
Compared to the chaos-stricken disciples of Cyan Cloud Sect, Lu Yuan appeared very calm.
He possessed the experience of cultivation over multiple lifetimes, having dealt with countless pure-blood true dragons.
And the true dragon illusion before him was merely a fragmentary dragon bone, daring to act fierce in front of him?
"Elder, don’t worry, I’ll assist you!"
Lu Yuan took a deep breath, activating his Vajra Treasure Body to the extreme.
Instantly.
His powerful qi and blood revived, his whole body glowing with immortal golden light, standing amidst the three-colored sea of fire, like a reincarnated Dragon-Slaying Buddha Venerable, intending to suppress this calamity dragon!
"Kill!"
Under everyone’s watchful eyes.
Lu Yuan soared into the sky, carrying the three-colored divine fire, transformed into a golden rainbow, directly colliding with the true dragon illusion.
"Boom!"
At that moment.
The heavens collapsed, the earth shattered, space caved in.
The originally indestructible void now resembled a broken mirror, showing dense cracks like a spider’s web.
And the aftermath and shockwaves generated from their collision surged like a rushing sea, sweeping towards all directions.
Everything in its path was pulverized to dust by the aftermath!
"How is this possible? Just with the flesh body can he withstand a top-grade magical treasure?"
Seeing this scene, the Taixuan Sect Ancestor was extremely astonished, involuntarily exclaiming.
The Dragon Bone Soul-Slaying Banner is forged from a true dragon’s remains, its defense even more robust than many sacred artifacts.
Yet Lu Yuan, a mere Nirvana Great Cultivator, how can he withstand a top-grade magical treasure and emerge unscathed?
Is this still a human?
Li Shouzhuo and Han Qingxuan were also shocked, their scalps numb, unable to speak for a long time.
They knew Lu Yuan’s talent was extraordinary, fighting across realms for him was as easy as eating and drinking water.
But the Taixuan Sect Ancestor is a genuine Celestial Destiny Great Power!
And he wielded a top-grade magical treasure, his power far surpassing that of the Great Li Ancestor.
Yet even so.
Lu Yuan can still contend against the Celestial Destiny Great Power without being disadvantaged?
Such aptitude and combat power are truly awe-inspiring and unprecedented!
