Chapter 298 Battle Venerable (Seeking monthly votes! Seeking further subscriptions!)

"...Then I'll have to trouble you, young friend."

The gourd vine hesitated for two seconds, then did not refuse again, because it knew that refusing would be useless.

After a few brief exchanges, He had already sensed some aspects of Wu Xian's personality.

Domineering, brooking no refusal, with a quirky way of thinking, acting on impulse, and shameless... cough cough!
In short, if you can't suppress such a person with your strength, the best approach is to obediently comply; otherwise, you might suffer some consequences.

As for Wu Xian, he is a Cave Heaven Realm cultivator.

No! I'm already at the Spirit Transformation Realm, how can I possibly contend with three powerful Venerables with such a weak cultivation level...?

"Ha! Those three guys are really unlucky."

Thinking this to himself, the gourd vine couldn't help but feel a little smug. He then calmed his mind and prepared to ignite the illusory divine fire with all his might to take that crucial step.

A powerful wave was spreading, and life was flowing. At this moment, the gourd vine was like a god undergoing nirvana and rebirth. The starry sky was filled with divine light, which was swallowed up by the old vine.

After an unknown amount of time, life force surged forth here, and the old vines sprouted new buds, which were as bright and powerful as green agate.

"Lord Sacrifice to Spirits!"

Upon seeing this scene, the high-ranking experts of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion who had just arrived were immediately excited and stepped forward to kneel and pay their respects.

Some of the old men even cried out loud; those were tears of joy.

For these elders of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, nothing could be better news than the revival of the sacrificial spirits.

Over the years, the sacrificial spirits have declined and are on the verge of death, a fact that has long since spread to the outside world, causing the reputation of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion to plummet and fall far short of its former glory.

In the past, their orders would be obeyed without question, but now many powerful forces dare to challenge them, all because the sacrificial spirit is about to die.

Over the long years, the Heaven-Mending Pavilion lost its sacred technique. If the Sacrificial Spirit were to perish, they would fall from the ranks of the top powers and face great calamity.

At this moment, everyone in the Butian Pavilion cheered, because the sacrificial spirit was truly reviving, sweeping away its previous slump, and all the leaves were lush and green, flowing with crystal-clear green light.

"Stop crying!"

Wu Xian strode past the group with an air of indifference, kicked one of the old men to the ground, and sneered, "What are you standing there for? Can't you see your spirit is breaking through? Hurry up and protect it."

"breakthrough?!"

Upon hearing this, the group froze on the spot, then seemed to realize something, and their expressions became quite interesting, showing both joy and worry.

"This...senior?"

At this moment, the Pavilion Master of Butian Pavilion stepped forward, looked at Wu Xian's youthful face, and tentatively asked.

"May I ask if you are the one who, a year ago, told my disciples in the Great Wilderness that we should exchange the Heaven-Mending Technique for healing Lord Sacrificial Spirit?"

"Oh? It seems like that's true."

Wu Xian nodded. He had only mentioned it casually at the time and hadn't taken it too seriously. A year later, he had almost forgotten about it.

"Alright, let's talk about this later. After I deal with those three guys outside, we can discuss this properly. Just so you know, I'm very expensive, so you'd better be prepared for your Butian Pavilion to go bankrupt."

After saying that, Wu Xian's figure flashed and disappeared from the spot amidst the distortion of light and shadow.

"Pavilion Master."

Someone snapped out of their daze and hesitantly said to the Pavilion Master of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, "That child's appearance seems to resemble that demonic child from the Realm of Illusions..."

"No need to say anything more."

The Pavilion Master raised his hand to interrupt: "No matter who he is, from today onwards, to our Heaven-Mending Pavilion, he is our most honored guest and benefactor."

"Now, everyone, do your duty and protect the High Priest. Even if it means death, you must not let anyone set foot in the garden!" "Yes!" —xN
……

On the other side, after witnessing the strange phenomena occurring in the garden, the disciples of Butian Pavilion realized what had happened.

Their spirit master had been resurrected and become powerful again. This news spread throughout the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, and countless cheers erupted. All the disciples and elders were extremely excited.

The various forces outside, who were closely monitoring the movements of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, were also very surprised and filled with awe.

They all thought that the reason why the Heaven-Mending Pavilion had recently sealed off its sect was because the old vine was about to die. Some forces that had grudges against the Heaven-Mending Pavilion had even prepared to attack it.

Unexpectedly, the old vine survived again; it was simply unbelievable.

But that powerful life force doesn't lie; you can feel it as soon as you get close to the Butian Pavilion. That old vine has truly revived.

"Something's not right, that aura is still increasing!"

Outside the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, in the distant mountains, a figure bathed in golden light stared intently in the direction of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, muttering to himself.

"That vine not only revived, but also tried to go further."

"Ha! Looking for death!"

In another direction, a massive, ferocious bird opened its blood-moon-like eyes, stirring up a towering black mist. With a cold laugh, it spread its wings and charged towards the Heaven-Mending Pavilion without the slightest hesitation.

"If you were merely recovering, I would still be somewhat wary of you, but you want to go further, which is courting death!"

On the horizon, a ferocious beast with wings on its back and a body like a tiger appeared, also shrouded in mist, its pair of emerald green eyes burning like torches.

It exuded a terrifying killing intent, and its size was enormous. The clouds in the sky were not even as big as its palm. If it weren't for the mist swirling around it, those clouds alone would not have been able to cover its body at all.

All three beings possess the cultivation of the Venerable Realm, making them among the strongest in the Great Wilderness. However, resources in the lower realm are scarce, and to achieve the Divine Fire Realm, they need sufficiently precious materials to ignite the Divine Fire.

Without a doubt, the divine seed from the gourd vine is one of the most outstanding materials, not much inferior to the legendary Dao seed. It not only offers a greater chance of breakthrough but also the potential to advance further and achieve true godhood.

Therefore, over the years, many forces have been eyeing the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, waiting for the vine to die so they can seize it.

Originally, seeing the old vine revive and regain its former power, the three creatures were prepared to leave in disappointment. But unexpectedly, the old vine broke through even when powerful enemies were all present. Wasn't this just giving the divine seed to them for nothing?
Since that's the case, the three creatures didn't hold back and wanted to join forces to sabotage the old vine's breakthrough, kill it, and then determine the victor among themselves to compete for the final master of the divine seed.

"Hoohoho-"

After a deafening roar, the winged beast was the first to lose its composure. Surrounded by black mist, it crashed into the protective array of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion, much to the astonishment of the other two creatures.

It was a Qiongqi, an ancient remnant species, but it broke through the shackles of bloodline and became a Venerable. It even became a sacrificial spirit of an ancient kingdom. After absorbing the power of faith, it devoured all the creatures of that ancient kingdom. It was truly vicious and wicked.

But because of this, its strength is second to none among the Venerable Realm, and it can fight against gods.

A violent aura swept across the surrounding area, and its powerful momentum, far exceeding that of ordinary Venerable Realm cultivators, shook the void. In an instant, it arrived outside the barrier of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion and slapped it, attempting to annihilate it.

Bang------!!!
A dull thud resounded, rippling through the void. However, the expected scene of the formation shattering did not appear. The battle to protect the Heaven-Mending Pavilion remained unscathed, standing firm like a reef in the ocean.

Upon seeing this, Qiongqi's pupils suddenly contracted, not because he failed to destroy the formation, but because he felt that his palm was blocked by something before it could touch the formation.

"With so little strength, did you not eat before you came?"

A sarcastic voice rang out from under the beast's claws. Qiongqi was startled and tried to withdraw its hand, but found that its claws were as if they were clamped by iron pincers and it could not move at all.

His divine sense swept downwards and he saw a human cub of about six or seven years old, who was holding onto one of his paws. Then the cub looked up at him and grinned before throwing him backwards in an over-the-shoulder throw.
