Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 1458

When Zhong Kui brought Yang Junshan and Tang Ruoqing to search the secret realm, Tang Ruoqing couldn’t help but ask, “Fellow Daoist Zhong, although Immortal White Tiger had originally promised you that you would choose three treasures before he had fallen, there probably weren’t only three treasures in this White Tiger Secret Realm. So why is it that you haven’t seen any traces of other treasures along the way?”

Zhong Kui seemed to have already expected Tang Ruoqing’s question, and said, “The Secret Realm obviously does not only have three treasures, but the appearance of the treasures will actually depend on the owner of the secret realm. Back then, I received the kindness from the White Tiger Immortal, who was actually the last Demon Immortal in the White Tiger, so I am naturally the owner of the White Tiger Secret Realm. In reality, these three treasures have already appeared when we entered the secret realm. All we need to do is to find them, and as for the other Immortal Repositories, they will remain hidden.

The three of them walked in the middle, and were attacked by the three tiger spirits a few more times, but facing the three Golden Immortals, the three tiger spirits were obviously useless. Instead, they were killed a few times by Yang Junshan, and then refined a few of his Metal Element Source Qi.

Compared to Yang Junshan who was active in killing the source of the tiger spirit, Zhong Kui and Tang Ruqing did not care at all.

Most of the time, the two Celestial Sovereign s would only take action to block the two tiger spirits, and after Yang Junshan killed one of them, the other two would run away when they saw that the situation was bad, the two Celestial Sovereign s would also let the tiger spirits escape, not bothering to chase them down or use their immortal elemental energy to stop them.

Regarding this, Yang Junshan had no choice but to do so.

Tang Ruqing had yet to form her foundation for the metal energy in her body. To him, using the origin energy was only normal absorbing, it didn’t have any additional effects.

As for Zhong Kui, he had already reconstructed his immortal body due to Immortal White Tiger’s Baleful Essence Qi. Forget about Yang Junshan, even if it was any other Golden Immortal, they would not believe that he had not reached the Great Perfection Stage of his Lung Metal Qi. After his Metal Element Essence had been absorbed, it would probably be used by him.

However, when they were in the valley, Zhong Kui had not only absorbed a Golden Immortal level Guardian Beast’s source energy, but also a Origin Stone.

It was unknown how long the three Celestial Sovereign s walked for. When they stopped again, they had already arrived at a forest.

“Could it be here?” Yang Junshan asked doubtfully.

Zhong Kui nodded. “This should be a good place.”

When Tang Ruqing heard this, she said, “So you’re saying that this place should also be guarded by a Golden Immortal level beast spirit? How come we didn’t sense its traces?”

Just as Tang Ruqing finished speaking, a roar suddenly shook the sky. The loud sound momentarily deafened Yang Junshan and the other two, and a guardian beast whose body was a full circle smaller than the one in the valley came out from the forest.

“It’s still the agreement to get rid of the two of you to block this Guardian Spirit!”

His voice was already useless at this point of time, Zhong Kui could only use his spiritual sense to communicate with Yang Junshan and Tang Ruqing.

Zhong Kui immediately disappeared after he received a nod from Tang and Yang Dong.

Tang Ruqing said in a relaxed manner, “This Guardian Beast Spirit seems to be even weaker than the previous one. Fellow Daoist Zhong, please go and quickly return.”

After speaking, Tang Ruqing went up to meet the Guardian Spirit, intending to end the battle quickly.

Yang Junshan’s attack could not be considered slow either, but because of his previous experience, half of his attention was focused on the three tiger spirits that were immortal within the secret realm, and could appear at any time.

However, when Yang Junshan rushed to the front of the Guardian Spirit, Tang Ruqing who was in front of it to block it immediately let out a cry of alarm.

“Not good, this beast spirit is so powerful!”

Yang Junshan’s gaze swept over them. He saw that a golden cymbal that was flying out of Tang Ruqing’s hands had actually been sent flying by the beast spirit’s claw. Soon after, the beast spirit’s enormous body pounced in front of Tang Ruqing.

In her haste, Tang Ruqing could only use the other golden eagle to block in front of her.

A muffled sound rang out as the golden bird blocked the beast spirit in midair. However, Tang Ruoqing was sent flying by the beast spirit’s powerful impact.

This time, not to mention Tang Ruqing, even Yang Junshan himself was shocked.

Yang Junshan hurriedly used his sacred art to lure the Mountain Monarch Seal towards the Guardian Spirit, in order to attract its attention. At least it was still its companion at the moment, so it couldn’t bear to see Tang Ruo Qing in such a sorry state.

As expected, the Guardian Spirit was angered by Yang Junshan, as it turned its head to look at him, it lowered its head and let out a dull roar.

Yang Junshan instantly sensed that the Platinum Baleful Qi in the surrounding space was being activated, and numerous tiger teeth that were completely condensed from the baleful aura appeared around him. They lined up together to form a huge tiger’s mouth, and ruthlessly bit at Yang Junshan.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Yang Junshan felt light around him. When the light gathered, it formed a round crystal shell around his body.

The tiger’s mouth, which was filled with spirit teeth, bit down on Yang Junshan’s protective crystal wall, and his entire mouth was suddenly filled with spirit teeth. However, Yang Junshan’s protective guard was also pierced full of holes.

Just at that moment, the crystal wall that was barely standing in place suddenly broke open from the inside. The Mountain Monarch Seal whistled out and struck the guardian beast spirit that was unable to dodge in time, causing its huge body to tumble and crushing a large part of the forest.

Yang Junshan was surprised that Tang Ruqing still hadn’t come to help. He was just about to look to the other side when he saw Tang Ruqing’s figure flash, and then heard his voice: “Those three tiger spirits are here, leave them to me!”

Yang Junshan sneered in his heart, unavoidably showing even more contempt for Celestial Sovereign Tang.

However, the Guardian Spirit in front of him was also not ordinary. Even though it was a lot smaller than the previous one, but Yang Junshan noticed that the Beast Spirit in front of him was much more solid.

Most importantly, during the fight between the two of them at such a close distance, Yang Junshan saw that there was actually something that looked like a blood thread swimming on the surface of the beast spirit’s body.

The Spirit Beast Tiger rushed over once again. Yang Junshan did not want to fight in close combat with it, so with a flash, he had already flown into the air.

Unexpectedly, the giant tiger let ouoar and gathered the metal elemental energy around its body, condensing a pair of golden-white wings at its two sides.

The Spirit Beast Tiger flapped its wings, raising dust into the air as its gigantic body shot up into the air, straight towards Yang Junshan.

Yang Junshan had already figured out how to deal with this beast spirit. However, both of his hands formed a lightning seal and a colorless lightning bolt struck down from the sky, striking the beast spirit that was caught off guard.

“Good, Taoist Yang is good with the Thunder Art!”

An untimely voice rang out again as Zhong Kui appeared like a ghost at the edge of the forest. He immediately leaped into the air and pointed his longsword towards the beast spirit’s chest. “Look at my longsword!”

Seeing that the Guardian Spirit was about to fall in front of Zhong Kui’s long sword, suddenly, the space above the beast spirit was torn apart, and a giant hand extended out from the crack. In the moment that the long sword was about to succeed, a palm struck the top of the Spirit Beast Tiger’s head.

The gigantic tiger head was immediately smashed into pieces by Yang Junshan, following that, the Spirit Beast’s huge body started to dissipate into a ball of Spirit Qi, only the extremely pure metal element was held in Yang Junshan’s hands.

Zhong Kui obviously did not expect his long planned attack to miss. A surprised expression flashed across his face as his expression changed. He then suddenly laughed, “I have overdone it!”

Yang Junshan slowly descended from mid air, the essence in his palm was being refined by the immortal elemental energy, and after hearing that, he laughed: “If not for Mr Zhong suddenly diverting the Spirit Beast’s attention, I would not have been able to hit it.”

The two Golden Immortals lied with their eyes wide open, but their words were filled with seriousness.

At this time, Yang Junshan’s expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly threw the Mountain Monarch Seal in his hand out.

Several hundred meters away, the abdomen of a fleeing tiger spirit was suddenly penetrated from left to right. The tiger spirit only had time to let out a wail before it turned into a ball of origin energy and was sucked into Yang Junshan’s palm from afar.

Tang Ruqing’s voice came from not far away, “I never thought that these three tiger spirits were so cunning. If it wasn’t for Taoist Yang being early, the three tiger spirits would have escaped together. I’m sorry!”

Yang Junshan laughed and did not continue Tang Ruqing’s conversation.

Zhong Kui swept his gaze over the two of them and suddenly laughed, “Don’t you two want to know what I’ve acquired in the forest?”

“What?” Tang Ruqing immediately asked.

Yang Junshan also curiously looked at Zhong Kui.

Yang Junshan took ouound glass container with both hands, and a red and thick liquid rolled around inside the container, and a faint fragrance emitted out.

“This is … blood?” Tang Ruqing asked with some hesitation, “White Tiger Demonic Blood?”

Zhong Kui glanced at Yang Junshan, who had a serious expression, and smiled. “That’s right, it’ool of fresh blood from the White Tiger, and it’s also blood from the White Tiger Demon Saint’s Life Essence.”

“What? Demon Saint White Tiger?” Tang Ruoqing exclaimed, “Only a demonic cultivator who has reached the Da Lou Realm can be called a Demon Saint. Does Fellow Zhong mean that the blood inside is the White Tiger Sacred Blood?”

Zhong Kui calmly nodded his head. “Correct, that’s the White Tiger Sacred Blood!”

After he finished speaking, Zhong Kui extended his hand and formed a spell sign. The White Tiger Holy Blood within the vessel was immediately activated, half of the blood condensed into a ball that flew out of the vessel and slowly flew towards Yang Junshan.

“Taoist Yang, with your help, I am unable to repay this mission to you. I hope that you can accept this half of the White Tiger Holy Blood.”

Seeing the blood ball flying towards him, Yang Junshan immediately understood that this was the reward that Zhong Kui had promised him. He immediately took out a jade bottle from his storage treasure and placed the blood ball inside, and then sealed the bottle with several Spirit Sealing Symbols.

“Don’t tell me Taoist Yang possesses the White Tiger bloodline?” Tang Ruqing’s voice was heard.
