People in Conferred Gods: Rising from humble beginnings, I am the God of Wealth

Chapter 350 Hearing of the Emperor's Name, He Desires to Become Yang Xuan's Disciple!
On Skull Mountain.

After Taiyi Zhenren sensed that his lifespan had returned, boundless dark death energy began to grow wildly from all parts of his body.

In the blink of an eye, his primordial spirit, his Dao body, and even the Qi flowers and essence flowers within the auspicious clouds were stained with wisps of pitch-black death energy.

If left unchecked, the three flowers may wither and the cultivation level may drop to the Great Luo realm. In the worst case, it may even lead to the depletion of lifespan, the severing of vitality, and death!
How could Taiyi Zhenren dare to slack off in the slightest? He hurriedly withdrew his magic power and did his best to resist the death energy growing in his body. Auspicious clouds appeared above his head, and the three flowers gathered together, trying to eliminate the concept of lifespan.

Seeing this, Yang Xuan knew that the opportunity was rare and he was not about to let it slip by.
Two dazzling golden lights shot out from Yang Xuan's eyes, his aura surged, he clenched his right fist and pulled it back, then took a step forward and stomped heavily on the Skull Mountain.

Boom-!
With a deafening roar, the entire Skull Mountain sank several meters, and several huge cracks that stretched for hundreds of miles appeared around it.

Followed by.

Yang Xuan's right fist slammed down, tearing everything in its path to shreds.

Whether it was the pitch-black deathly aura, or the spiritual energy wandering between heaven and earth, or the Samadhi True Fire remaining in the void, all were completely annihilated by this punch, leaving no trace, demonstrating pure violent aesthetics.

"not good!"

Yang Xuan's move was too decisive and too fast. Just as Taiyi Zhenren looked up, he saw a fist containing the Great Dao of Destruction and the Great Dao of Power already in front of him, casting a huge shadow.

He has not yet resolved the issue of his lifespan reappearing and the state of deathly aura. His cultivation is already severely damaged. Faced with Yang Xuan's decisive punch, how could he possibly dodge it?
But he was, after all, a Great Immortal, and he wasn't completely unable to react.

Taiyi Zhenren dared not take the attack head-on. While suppressing the death energy, he hurriedly diverted a portion of his magic power and activated the protective spiritual treasures beside him. These treasures formed various colored light shields in front of him, enveloping him within them.

Almost the instant he activated his protective magic treasure, Yang Xuan's fist, as massive as a mountain and gleaming with golden light, slammed into the light shield.

Click click click——!
In the blink of an eye, dense cracking sounds came from these light shields of various colors, and cracks appeared.

Finally, with a loud 'bang', the light barrier in front of Taiyi Zhenren shattered, and all the protective spiritual treasures around him exploded and turned into dust.

Under Yang Xuan's golden fist, even these dust particles were completely annihilated and disappeared.

Throughout the entire prehistoric world, the Wu Clan has always been among the most powerful in terms of combat strength, making them one of the strongest races in the prehistoric world.

They may not be good at cultivation and enlightenment, but there is no member of the witch clan who is not good at fighting.

Under Houtu's scheme, Yang Xuan's incense-burning golden body nourished itself with incense offerings and divine fortune, and cultivated the Nine Revolutions Yuan Gong, which was in harmony with it.

Putting aside bloodline, Yang Xuan's current incense-burning golden body can be considered a great shaman.

In addition, Yang Xuan's understanding of the Great Dao made his incense-infused golden body even more powerful than many great shamans.

After incorporating a large amount of incense offerings, the strength of his projection has reached the level of a late-stage Great Witch.

Even if Taiyi Zhenren is a disciple of the Chan Sect, personally taught by Yuanshi Tianzun, and possesses profound Taoist cultivation, he is likely to become a Quasi-Saint in the future, with an extremely high potential.

However, he is currently only at the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, and he has been affected by Yang Xuan's divine power, which has brought back the concept of lifespan and caused death to spread. Even his Three Flowers have been infected, and his cultivation has been greatly affected.

Under such circumstances, how could a hastily activated protective magic treasure possibly withstand Yang Xuan's full-force punch, which was from a late-stage Great Witch?
The higher one's cultivation level, the longer the battle can last. Battles between Grand Luo Golden Immortals can last for hundreds or even thousands of years, but that is only when both sides are evenly matched.

But if one side is far stronger than the other, then it's hard to say.

Clearly, Yang Xuan and Taiyi Zhenren are currently in this situation.

After Yang Xuan shattered all the protective spiritual treasures with a single punch, his momentum only paused slightly before he continued to descend towards Taiyi Zhenren.

At such a distance, Taiyi Zhenren could not dodge, and he didn't even have time to retrieve the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover. He could only throw out the golden brick in his sleeve, which expanded into a golden city wall to block his way.

Followed by.

Then a loud 'clang' was heard as Yang Xuan's huge fist landed on the gold brick.

Under absolute power, even if the gold brick was forged by the Primordial Celestial Venerable and possessed extraordinary mysteries, it would still be effective.

He barely managed to stop Yang Xuan before being sent flying by his fist, which slammed heavily into Taiyi Zhenren, causing his entire body to tremble violently. The flesh on his face and chest caved in, becoming a flat surface that stuck to the gold brick.

But that's not all; Yang Xuan has no intention of stopping there!

After knocking the gold brick away, Yang Xuan's fist continued forward, his body pressing down to amplify the power of the punch, slamming it heavily onto the gold brick, sending it and Taiyi Zhenren behind it crashing down onto Skull Mountain.

boom--!
With a deafening roar that shook the heavens and the earth, Skull Mountain sank hundreds of feet. Within a radius of hundreds of miles, the area that had previously only shown cracks suddenly trembled violently and shattered completely, as if it were the end of the world.

And this is simply the unavoidable consequence of this punch!

As the primary and sole target of this punch, Taiyi Zhenren suffered an even more powerful attack.

A beam of clear light, carrying a golden brick, flew out from another peak of Skull Mountain.

Through the clear light, one can see that on this gold brick, there is a flat piece of flesh, firmly attached to the gold brick. Judging from its clothing, it is exactly the same as that of the Taiyi Zhenren.

However, this clear light did not originate from the flattened piece of flesh, but rather from a primordial spirit identical to that of the Taiyi Zhenren located beside it.

Clearly, the flattened mass of flesh was unusable without some processing, so Taiyi Zhenren had no choice but to separate his primordial spirit from his body.

However, even after his primordial spirit left his body, he still couldn't get rid of the dark death energy, and this death energy was rapidly increasing, spreading towards the seeds of Qi, essence, and divine flowers in his brain.

Because Taiyi Zhenren was severely injured and his physical body was almost destroyed, the rate at which death energy was generated became faster, and the situation became worse. He could no longer suppress the death energy within his body.

If things continue like this, his three flowers will wither and his cultivation level will drop to the Great Luo realm in a little over a thousand years.

"Yang Xuan, you have such vicious methods! I admit defeat today!"

Taiyi Zhenren glared angrily at Yang Xuan, but dared not continue the fight. He hurriedly retrieved the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and used his escape light to fly away into the distance.

He was not worried that Yang Xuan would continue to attack, nor did he think that he would perish here.

The disciples of the Chan Sect are the greatest talisman in the primordial world; they may fail, they may fail, but they will not die!

Even the Earth Immortal disciples of the Jie Sect were not dared to be killed by anyone in the prehistoric world.

Even when beating a dog, one must consider its owner; killing a dog is even more so. Even if there were karmic consequences, no one would dare to kill a saint's disciple.

Yang Xuan felt the same way. He wanted Taiyi Zhenren to be on the list as soon as possible, which was understandable, but he couldn't be the one to personally send Taiyi Zhenren to the list. It was best to avoid doing things that would provoke the Chan Sect and offend Yuanshi Tianzun.

His purpose in making his move today was to severely injure Taiyi Zhenren, so that he would have less protection and more chances of being listed in the Investiture of the Gods. He did not intend to send Taiyi Zhenren to the list here.

Taiyi Zhenren was merely bullying the weak and trying to kill Shiji, a ghost from the underworld. Although the karma involved was not insignificant, it was somewhat far-fetched to put Taiyi Zhenren on the list because of this.

However, it was clearly impossible for Master Taiyi to leave so easily. Yang Xuan made his move because Master Taiyi had bullied the weak first and then attacked.

That's why he had no choice but to retaliate. After all, Taiyi Zhenren was a disciple of the Chan Sect, while he, an immortal without any background, naturally had to go all out.

As a result, by accident, Taiyi Zhenren was beaten into this state, which is perfectly reasonable and no one can find fault with it.

However, his actions were merely a counterattack, an attempt to vent Shi Ji's anger, nothing more.

Yang Xuan hasn't even settled the matter of Taiyi Zhenren's attempt to bully the weak and kill Shiji yet!

Shi Ji is a ghost or deity from the underworld, and is Yang Xuan's subordinate.

Now that Shi Ji has been bullied and almost beaten to death, Yang Xuan, the Central Ghost Emperor, has to stand up for her and seek justice.

Since Taiyi Zhenren is a disciple of a sage and cannot be killed casually, then giving him some compensation for mental distress is reasonable, right?

As Yang Xuan watched the disappearing light of Taiyi Zhenren gradually fade into the distance, a smile appeared on his lips. The Golden Wheel of Merit appeared behind his head, and a projection of the Causal Balance Instrument appeared in his hand. He then activated the Divine Art of Treasure Exchange.

“Fellow Daoist Taiyi, you bully the weak by using your strength to break Shiji’s divine power with a golden brick, and you intend to refine her with the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover, causing her to be frightened, her Dao heart to be obstructed, and her cultivation to be damaged.”

"Leave the gold bricks and the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover behind, and let Shiji use them for a while to soothe her wounded Dao heart!"

As Yang Xuan finished speaking, a large amount of merit from the merit behind his head floated out like smoke and disappeared into the void.

Followed by.

Then a clang was heard, and the projection of the Falling Treasure Coin emerged from the void and landed on the scales on the left side of the Causal Balance Instrument, causing the two scales to become unbalanced.

next moment.

Taiyi Zhenren stumbled as he fled, the golden bricks beneath his feet vanished, leaving only his primordial spirit and his body as flat as a sheet of paper.

The Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover, which he had absorbed into his primordial spirit, also vanished into thin air at that moment.

Looking back, one can see that on the right side of the scale of cause and effect, there is a small gold brick, covered by a gold cover of the same size, which keeps the two scales in balance.

No matter how much Master Taiyi urged them, the golden bricks and the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover did not react.

What's even more alarming is that, to Taiyi Zhenren's horror, he couldn't sense any of his own aura on the two spiritual treasures, the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and the Golden Brick, as if he had never possessed them at all.

The Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and the Golden Brick have been with him for many years and are his two strongest spiritual treasures. If he loses these two spiritual treasures, his strength will drop by half.

Now that the great calamity is approaching, he has suffered such serious injuries that his physical body is almost destroyed and death energy is rampant within him. As a result, he may wither away and fall from the Great Luo Realm.

If he loses the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and the Golden Brick, even if he finds a disciple to take the blame, he will probably still have a place on the Investiture of the Gods in the future!
But he was beaten so badly by Yang Xuan in just one exchange, how could he dare to go back and ask for the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and the gold bricks back?
If Yang Xuan dared to take his spiritual treasure, he might lose his life, which would directly put him on the Investiture of the Gods list, or at least reserve a spot on it.

"Yang Xuan, I have remembered what happened today!"

No matter how unwilling Taiyi Zhenren was, he could only utter a harsh word, look at the two spiritual treasures with reluctance, and then use a secret technique to flee far away towards Kunlun Mountain.

His physical body is almost destroyed, and he has lost two spiritual treasures. If he encounters some fool, he might die without even knowing why.

Yang Xuan paid no attention to the threat posed by Taiyi Zhenren.

As long as Taiyi Zhenren's primordial spirit is on the list, even if the Investiture of the Gods and the God-Slaying Whip belong to the Chan Sect, once the Investiture of the Gods calamity ends and Taiyi Zhenren arrives in the Heavenly Court, Yang Xuan will still have a hundred ways to control him.

If Taiyi Zhenren is still so blind by then, he won't have a good time in the Heavenly Court.

Yang Xuan watched as Taiyi Zhenren disappeared, his expression unchanged. He quickly shrank to the size of an ordinary person and came to Shiji's side.

Yang Xuan took Shi Ji's small hand, handed her the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and the gold brick, and said calmly:

"These two spiritual treasures are a gift from Master Taiyi as an apology. You may accept them for now, and return them to Master Taiyi when the time is right in the future."

"Huh? For...for me?"

Shi Ji was dumbfounded once again when she saw the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and the gold brick that Yang Xuan had placed in his hand.

Even now, she is still not in the middle of what just happened.

She never expected that her summoning ritual would actually bring forth such a powerful deity!
At first, she only thought of using the summoning ritual to invite Yang Xuan's projection, so that Taiyi Zhenren would be wary and thus retreat on his own.

Unexpectedly, Taiyi Zhenren became wary and took the initiative to retreat. This was precisely the process...

That's just too outrageous!

Taiyi Zhenren possessed the cultivation of a mid-stage Daluo Jinxian, and was also an immortal and disciple of the Sage of the Chan Sect. Yet, in just one exchange, he was severely injured by Yang Xuan's projection.

Even Taiyi Zhenren's Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and Golden Brick were taken away by Yang Xuan!

Moreover, judging from Yang Xuan's appearance, he clearly still had some strength left. If someone who didn't know the situation saw this, they would probably think that Taiyi Zhenren was the one who descended the projection.

What Shi Ji didn't expect was that after Yang Xuan took away Taiyi Zhenren's gold brick and the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover, he turned around and gave it to her, leaving her dumbfounded once again.

The Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and the Golden Brick are both renowned spiritual treasures of the prehistoric world. Even quasi-saints would probably covet them.

But Yang Xuan gave her these two magical treasures just as they were about to be completed. How could she have imagined that?
Although Yang Xuan took the two spiritual treasures in Shi Ji's name, anyone would think that this was just an excuse and that the two spiritual treasures would never fall into Shi Ji's hands.

As it turned out, as soon as Taiyi Zhenren left, Yang Xuan placed the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover and the gold brick into Shiji's hands, looking calm and without the slightest reluctance.

Just like these two famous treasures of the primordial world, they are nothing more than scattered pebbles.

Shi Ji glanced at Yang Xuan, who remained calm, and then at the magical treasure in her hand. She felt as if her head was spinning, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.

But just then, Nezha suddenly ran over from not far away, gesturing excitedly at Yang Xuan.

Yang Xuan knew that Nezha's mouth had been sealed, so after thinking for a moment, he gently waved his sleeve and released Nezha from the seal.

From Shi Ji's words, Yang Xuan realized that perhaps the Nezha in front of him was not quite the same as the one in the legends of his previous life.

next moment.

Then Nezha suddenly knelt down on the ground and prostrated himself.

"Your Majesty, please take me in! I don't want to follow that old man Taiyi anymore!"
