Chapter 197: Great Harvest!

Overseas, Lü Yang was in no hurry to leave.

Instead, he carefully counted his harvest.

First was Ye Xingfeng’s life-bound flying sword.

“Such a pity that it was damaged by a True Lord, the impact was too great, and the three divine wonders on the sword —【Breaking Barriers】, 【Dispelling Thoughts】, and 【God-Slaying】— had actually been reduced to only one【Breaking Barriers】.”

Strictly speaking, the quality of this life-bound flying sword was even higher than the【Abi Sword】.

After all, all three divine wonders were designed for killing.

No wonder Ye Xingfeng was the direct personal disciple of a Golden Core True Lord.

To refine such a spirit treasure, the hand of a True Lord from the Sword Pavilion was surely involved.

In comparison, Ye Xingfeng’s other two spirit treasures were much weaker.

One was the robe he wore, a brocade cloak, with threads flowing with a faint treasure light, clearly a body-protecting treasure that was impervious to water and fire.

“【Hundred Calamities Protective Mystic Cloak】!”

The divine wonder of this superior spirit treasure was called【Hundred Calamities】.

As the name suggested, the cloak contained a hundred disaster-warding talismans, and each attack could only eliminate one of them.

No matter how high your skill or how powerful your divine ability, one strike could only erase one talisman.

If the attack paused, the spirit treasure could regenerate the talisman.

Only by attacking a hundred times in quick succession, each time hitting the true body, could one break through the protection of this spirit treasure robe.

It was well known that sword cultivators had strong offense but weak defense.

And this robe was obviously meant to make up for that flaw.

With Ye Xingfeng wearing it and using his life-bound flying sword, no wonder he was invincible in the mid-Foundation Establishment Realm.

“Pity, it’s useless now!”

“No matter how strong the combat power, no matter how good the fight, it's still just mid-Foundation Establishment. A True Lord could kill him with a wave of the sleeve, and even a late-Foundation Establishment Grandmaster could easily slay him.”

Lü Yang sighed emotionally.

In the end, realm was what truly mattered!

Next, Lü Yang picked up another spirit treasure, which turned out to be a small tower.

It had six levels, appeared to be made of white jade, and a treasure bead sat atop its peak.

“【Serene Peace and Clear Aura Treasure Tower】!”

This superior spirit treasure was not a weapon for combat, but a tool for cultivation.

Its divine wonder was called【Clear Aura】, capable of purifying spiritual energy to nourish the Dao Foundation of a True Person.

If placed within the Dao Foundation, it could also reinforce the foundation and reduce the erosion from the【Bixi Wind】, granting a Foundation Establishment True Person thirty extra years of lifespan.

If any spirit treasures or materials were contaminated by turbid energy, they could be placed in the tower to be purified and restored to clarity.

Finally came Ying Tongshou’s superior spirit treasure.

It was called【Purple Star Official’s Supreme Gold Seal】, which he had refined using the【Official Position】of the Dao Court.

Its divine wonder was called【Pacify Rebels】, mainly used for suppression and collection.

Any metallic objects within its suppression range could be subdued and gathered by this treasure seal.

Moreover, Lü Yang could use this spirit treasure to claim the subdued spirit treasures as his own, and even control them to attack their original owners.

“This is another fine treasure!”

With a flick of his finger, Lü Yang instantly refined the three spirit treasures.

In a blink, the【Hundred Calamities Protective Mystic Cloak】draped over his body.

The【Serene Peace and Clear Aura Treasure Tower】anchored his Dao Foundation.

The【Purple Star Official’s Supreme Gold Seal】hung at his waist.

Standing there, he immediately radiated overwhelming treasure light!

Seeing this, Lü Yang quickly operated【Mountain Embrace】to suppress himself, retracting all the radiance of the spirit treasures, returning to his usual low-profile demeanor.

“However, speaking of value, the most precious one is still this.”

With a thought, Lü Yang produced a talisman in his hand.

Its material was neither metal nor jade, its symbols shaped like tadpoles forming images of cloud dragons and strange birds.

When activated with magical power, it emitted golden radiance, a sight of infinite grandeur.

【Imperial Mansion Golden Seal Dou Shuai True Decree】!

The true treasure left by Daoist Hong Yun overseas, refined with the entire Biyang Cultivation Realm, though it had not been completed before Daoist Hong Yun perished.

Looking back now, Daoist Hong Yun had laid out such an arrangement in the Biyang Cultivation Realm, quietly restoring his cultivation to the peak of Foundation Establishment.

He clearly had great ambitions, waiting for True Person Chong Guang to begin his ascension to seek gold, so he could strike hard.

What a pity that it was accidentally ruined by Lü Yang himself.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang pondered the【Imperial Mansion Golden Seal Dou Shuai True Decree】in his hand.

After a moment, Lü Yang opened his palm and saw the talisman, a near-true treasure, constantly transforming in his hand, eventually turning into a mysterious light.

“Amazing...”

Wherever the mysterious light passed, all phenomena dimmed, causality vanished, and even divine senses fell into ignorance, unable to calculate or perceive anything within the light.

“This is...【Star Concealing Radiance】?”

The second innate divine ability corresponding to the【Wall Soil】Dao Foundation!

This innate divine ability was born from the combination of【She Ti Ge】Qi and【Qiang Yu】at the position of Earth Fiend.

【She Ti Ge】, also known as "Yin," resided where three Yang energies converged, where Yang fire arose and Yin fire receded.

As the sun rose, the stars concealed themselves, making even clear causality hard to reveal.

It corresponded to the profound wonder【Settling Doubt】in Lü Yang’s life-bound divine abilities.

【Settling Doubt】could anchor the development of events toward the desired outcome.

While【Star Concealing Radiance】could completely cover up the resulting causal changes.

If used well, it could even simulate a “Heaven and Earth Killing Intent” effect!

In addition,【Star Concealing Radiance】could conceal others’ perception of danger and hide Lü Yang’s own whereabouts, making it equally formidable for assassinations.

“Incredible!” Lü Yang marveled.

The【Imperial Mansion Golden Seal Dou Shuai True Decree】could actually simulate the next required innate divine ability in advance for a cultivator, and it could be used as smoothly as one's own limb!

This kind of transformation was not yet obvious at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, when there was only one innate divine ability.

Because mid-Foundation Establishment encompassed two innate divine abilities, its use for those at mid-stage perfection or even late-stage Foundation Establishment True Persons was unimaginable.

It was almost equivalent to directly increasing one’s cultivation!

With this near-true treasure, mid-Foundation Establishment perfection could immediately transform into a late-Foundation Establishment Grandmaster.

And a late-Foundation Establishment Grandmaster could immediately transform into Foundation Establishment perfection!

“Then... what about Foundation Establishment perfection?”

The more Lü Yang thought about it, the more shocked he felt.

In the end, he couldn’t help but burst out laughing:

‘Daoist Hong Yun, you died well!’

‘Although you once stole my harvest in my fifth lifetime, I am kind-hearted and magnanimous. I will forgive you in this lifetime.’

After all, the dead deserved respect!

If he had these spirit treasures back when he faced Arhat Fulong, why would he have needed to struggle?

He would have beaten him until even his dog-brain splattered!

He might have even had the confidence to fight the Peak Master of Mending Heaven Peak!

Thinking of this, Lü Yang let out a long breath, feeling that all his meticulous planning had finally paid off:

“It was not in vain that I went through so much trouble.”

And this was just the harvest of “this lifetime.”

In addition, there was still something concerning his future Dao path, namely the harvest of the “next lifetime,” the Dao Sin left behind by the failed Golden Seeking Innate True Person!

“Pity that its level is too high, and I can’t perform a soul search...”

At this moment, the Dao Sin had already been stored by Lü Yang in the Ten Thousand Spirits Banner.

Compared to before, this Dao Sin seemed to have had its wonders extracted by True Lord Qing Cheng Feixue.

It had fallen into deathly silence, and its aura had dropped to the early Foundation Establishment level.

No longer possessing its former transcendence.

“It was formed after the death of an Innate Daoist, so it must know the details of Supreme Grade True Qi. I have to find a way to extract that knowledge later.”

While Lü Yang was thinking about how to deal with this Dao Sin.

Suddenly, a loud noise exploded in his ears, deafening and almost shaking his very soul, even causing his Dao Foundation to violently tremble.

“What’s going on!?”

Lü Yang raised his head to look at the sky.

He saw that above the firmament, the two position stars formed by【Wall Soil】and【Stream Water】had finally dimmed like a flickering candle flame!
