Extraordinary Daoist
The statue was the statue of a daoist and so real Yang Tian had an impulse to bow. The daoist was so strong his vital essence remained as a statue after ages had gone by; he could wiped out a city without any effort.
Yang Tian was restless. When he approached the containers, the statue released bloodlust directed at him. The killing intent clanged against his skin. He needed to muscle his way through the defences. He was met with pressure several folds heavier compared to the last wave as soon as he took the first step forward. Yang Tian riveted as the pressure rapidly intensified. He quickly took another three steps, then halted in his tracks again. Another heavy wave hit him.
Daoism and Buddhism were the two most powerful factions nobody dared to pick a fight with. They, coincidentally, left at the same time. That said, daoists left behind secret techniques that had been passed down generation after generation on the continent. Apparently, the daoists left Daoist Scripture. Sadly, few people obtained it. Nevertheless, that was long ago. In the current world of cultivation, daoism and Buddhism had been forgotten for the most part.
The entire area quaked. Yang Xiao stopped himself when he planned to approach. It was a test. The place also happened to be the best place to refine one’s body and soul. The spear and Weapon Spirit joined them. He could sense both of them feared the statue. Yang Xiao tried to pry information from them to no avail. They seemed to have their own qualms, forcing Yang Xiao to give up.
Yang Tian’s hair thrashed around. His body glowed crimson. Every step he took, the pressure would increase accordingly. He spawned lightning from his body. He mustered up everything he had to fight the gut-wrenching pain. He hissed as he bled from his mouth. He howled his Invincible Will up and took another step.
Boom! A divine soul hit Yang Tian. It ran into his sea of consciousness similarly to a sharp blade. The attack was launched using divine soul energy. Yang Xiao figured out what made the place special from that. Yang Tian’s divine soul in his sea of consciousness promptly sealed the divine soul dimension and barricaded the divine soul attack. Even so, his Divine Soul could feel the magnitude of the attack behind cover.
Yang Tian steeled himself. “Let’s see what you’ve got!”
Boom! The statue put a hole in Yang Tian’s body.
Yang Tian transformed into a True Dragon to resist the pressure. “Rise!” cried Yang Tian, managing to take two steps this time before being stopped. His dragon was defeated, and he was blasted back. Yang Tian slowly got to his feet and looked over to the statue. He couldn’t obtain the treasure right before him.
“Uncle Xiao, the pressure within intensifies by folds.”
Yang Xiao ardently examined the statue. Next, he went to the altar. The Divine Beast huffed and revealed a terrifying pair of eyes. Yang Xiao retreated from the altar right away. The beast’s divine light in its eyes receded.
“The statue can attack now?! A restrictive technique has been set up here. It won’t be easy to take the items.”
“What do we do, Uncle Xiao?”
“Let’s worry about that later. The interior area is also fantastic for body refinement.”
Yang Tian’s eyes on the three jade containers were nice and sparkly. He clenched his teeth and summoned Chaos Physique. In spite of what he said, Yang Xiao didn’t stop him as there was practically nothing Chaos couldn’t destroy; perhaps it could grab the containers.
Chaos Physique went to the altar. Using Dubhe Divine Sword to protect itself, it stepped inside. The void shook the same way it did when Yang Tian entered, yet Chaos Physique was able to enter the altar without the pressure obstructing it. It encountered a mysterious deity concealed in mist moving about.
