Great Red Immortal Sect

Chapter 392 Mountain Refining
Ren Hai.

The headless and tailless rainbow fell again, bringing with it billowing black smoke. A circular arc of rainbow light rose in the mid-sky, surrounded by dim neon colors. The neon color fell into the rainbow, and the male and female clashed.

The illusory face dissipated in an instant, leaving only a face shrouded in illusory light. It rose into the sky and transformed into hundreds of male and female figures, piling up in the rainbow, appearing as women, eunuchs, and treacherous officials.

A white jade spirit pendant was offered up, engraved with a picture of a hen crowing at dawn. It hung in the center of the rainbow, constantly emanating evil energy, connecting with countless men and women, and countless gazes and words all fell on Hua Gu.

The true form of the mountain gradually veered off course in the rainbow light, no longer maintaining its upright position, showing signs of collapse. Yin and Yang were reversed, and Hua Gu's momentum plummeted, falling from near the peak of the Purple Mansion realm to a state where his Four Divine Powers were unstable.

Xu Xuan and Yun Cang besieged Hua Gu. The Ren River surged, and purple thunder roared, breaking through thousands of mountains and barriers, and the killing intent continued to accumulate.

The people present all had their own ulterior motives. Minglong, Youjing, and Shenjing each had their own desires, but at this moment they joined forces because of Huagu's power to besiege and kill this Holy Spirit of the Stone Man Path.

Hua Gu remained calm, and a dust-covered door behind him opened, containing the killing intent and stabilizing the water and fire, steadily blocking the attacks of the group.

On the blue stone platform, the mysterious Qi still hung there, blocked by the Yin and Yang energies, and no one could approach it for the time being.

"The three forces of Minglong, Youjing, and Shenjing are besieging us. Perfect, let's deal with them all today and establish the foundation of my [Divine Rock and Stone Great Dao] for a thousand years."

Hua Gu sighed softly, letting the rainbow light shine down from above. He gripped the Mountain-Driving Whip tightly, activated his supernatural powers, and the mountains fell down, stirring up a burst of bright light from the earth, which lashed straight at Xu Xuan.

The whip came with incredible speed, leaving no way to avoid it. Xu Xuan drew his sword and miraculously activated Lie Que's [Purple Extreme] technique.

Zixiao Tianting and Wujiu Xuanlei fell into the sword's pill chamber together, turning seven times and nine times, and a point of chaotic, hazy purple light rose above the sword's edge.

Boom!

Thunder roared and lightning bolts flashed. A sword slashed out with a vast thunderbolt, and countless true forms of mountains appeared on the mountain-driving whip. All of them were blessed by divine talismans and weighed more than ten thousand mountains, dispersing the thunderbolt.

Xu Xuan felt a tremendous force, like a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting, coming from the sword. He activated the Jade Blood Heavenly Heart Technique, and with the innate divine power of the Mingze Dragon Seed, he barely managed to block it. Blood was already seeping from the black scales on his sword-wielding hand.

'Unstoppable.'

In an instant, he made a judgment: Hua Gu's Dao power was profound, and with the talisman's blessing, even if Huan Yan used her supernatural powers to suppress it, the power of this Holy Spirit had already reached an extremely terrifying level.

Following the countless jet-black inert lights that fell with the Mountain-Driving Whip, the power of the [Earth-Earth Inert Stone Mystic Light] in Hua Gu's hands suddenly increased, instantly petrifying Xu Xuan's physical body and suppressing the Thousand Mountains.

The [Riding Without Blame] technique was activated, and the Thunder Chariot and Lightning Whip, with the Rainbow Scenery as its horse, transformed and operated, restoring his originally petrified body. With the momentum of charging into battle, he rushed into the sky, dragging a streak of purple lightning behind him.

The mountain-driving whip behind him, like a serpent, continued to extend, carrying a dark, languid light as it rushed straight towards the heavens, disappearing into the dark clouds along with Xu Xuan.

Hua Gu snorted coldly, letting the Mountain-Driving Whip chase after Mu Youdu. He flipped his hand and took out a golden mace, its golden light surging. With a single step, he shrank the distance between them and arrived in front of Yun Cang in an instant.

The Victory Golden Mace fell straight towards Yun Cang's crown chakra. The light of Qianyang changed, revealing the shape of a steed, suppressing the torrent of Renyang, extremely strong and vigorous. At the same time, the [Foolish Mountain Shift] was activated, carrying thousands of mountains and obstacles down.

"Come!"

Yun Cang roared, wielding the Heavenly Blade, his body radiating a serene light, and his demonic aura surged once more.

It is the supernatural power of "calming the storm" that embodies the virtue of Ren water's purity and harmony. Once unleashed, it prevents arrows from falling, weakens the light of the magic, and even has the function of deflecting force and neutralizing momentum.

But as the mace fell, his body suddenly sank. Even with the [Calming the Waves] technique to deflect the force, an extremely terrifying pressure still descended, causing his entire body to burst into a bloody mist.

The dark light on the Heavenly Blade dimmed, but the blood mist beside Yun Cang seemed to have a spirit, tinged with a layer of dark light, and surged toward Hua Gu, clinging tightly to his physical body.

Upon closer inspection, the blood mist revealed countless black mosquitoes with blood-winged wings and proboscises like long needles. They actually pierced through Hua Gu's protective light, penetrated his body, and sucked away the earth's energy.

These blood mosquitoes are not living creatures, but rather specially crafted artifacts. They correspond to a blood qi supernatural power, capable of absorbing essence and blood qi to nourish the original being. They are mid-grade demonic artifacts of the Purple Mansion.

The blood-red light pierced through Hua Gu's protective aura, seemingly having a restraining effect, which brought a hint of joy to Yun Cang's face. The dark light of the Heavenly Blade in his hand intensified, and he was about to push the golden mace away.

"Blood Qi Demonic Path, you've really put in the effort to restrain my Gen Earth."

Hua Gu's voice grew cold as he withdrew his golden mace and swept it with the light of Qianyang to scare away the blood mosquitoes beside him. Then, Yun Cang coughed up blood, yet still laughed loudly:
"I've already prepared this method for you, [Blood-Eating Mosquito], so enjoy it."

Hua Gu remained silent and offered up the [Primordial Chaos Pearl], a mid-grade spiritual artifact in the field of primordial magnetism.

Once this bead was unleashed, countless bright magnetic lights shone forth, striking Yun Cang and, combined with the true form of the mountain, firmly suppressing him.

The dark clouds in the sky parted, and a dark gray dragon pounced down. The dark, mysterious light on the reverse scale on its neck surged, deep and dark, with a hint of purple.

Behind this dragon was an endless stream of dark, inert light, with the Mountain-Driving Whip carrying the true form of mountains in relentless pursuit.

The innate divine power of the Mingze Dragon, [Wrathful Ferocity], is activated at this moment. It uses the Reverse Scale Profound Yin to nurture killing intent and uses the Reverse Scale as the scabbard of Lieque's sword to extend the sword's power.

This purple aura escaped from the reverse scale, transforming into a purple and white interwoven lightning sword light, with the dragon's head holding the sword, and slashed down.

Furthermore, it is further blessed by two divine powers, namely 【不兴】 and 【氾滥】, which respectively possess some of the divine power of Ren water, namely 【定风波】 and 【湮分绝】.

Standing in the Ren Sea, manifesting a dragon body, and taking advantage of the terrain, his magical power cultivation was now comparable to that of a mid-stage Purple Mansion cultivator, not even taking his sword intent into account.

Another wondrous power of Lie Que manifested: the [Punishment Field]. Twelve heavenly sounds resonated, signaling the Thunder Palace's execution of punishment. Thunderous swamps instantly spread out, covering the sky and blocking countless inert lights behind them.

The dragon's head was ferocious, holding a sword and ready to strike. The [Purple Heavenly Thunder] had the special ability to destroy the physical bodies of immortals, while the [Faultless Profound Thunder] possessed both the power of destruction and the power of rebirth. At this moment, it was concentrated on the edge of the Lieque sword.

With a wide-open mouth, the dragon unleashed countless purple and silver sword beams, slashing countless fine wounds into Hua Gu's body. Using its sword intent, the beams continued to slash, spreading deeper into his body. [Myriad-Splitting Body-Locking Sword Light]!
The mountains are towering and unmoving through the ages. The Earth element is most adept at protecting against all kinds of powerful techniques, but it is no match for this kind of attack that starts from the smallest detail. The lightning sword light is like an ant, gnawing at Hua Gu's body.

Hua Gu did not back down, letting the sword light slash his entire body, leaving it pitted and scarred, revealing his yellow stone body. He activated his supernatural power, and the mysterious light of the Gen Earth in his pupils shone, stopping the momentum of Xu Xuanlong's body and causing the power of his supernatural power to drop instantly.

【Guan Zhi Jing】, viewed from the perspective of the earth, things will inevitably turn around when they reach their extreme, and there will be a time when the momentum stops. This is the use of the obstruction of the Gen earth. When it is used at this time, Xu Xuanlong's body loses its strength and is about to fall.

The rainbow light in the sky shone brighter again. Huan Yan made a swift move at this moment. He had been suppressing the immortal talisman and disturbing Hua Gu. Seeing that the battle below was going badly, he unleashed endless illusory light, which condensed like gauze and was about to fall.

At this moment, the Divine Union Immortal Talisman erupted violently, and the true form of the mountain soared into the sky, nearly overturning the jade pendant in the rainbow.

Huan Yan had no choice but to stop and continue to activate her supernatural powers, disrupting the yin and yang within Hua Gu's body, keeping his aura constantly on the edge of the four supernatural powers.

"Focus on suppression, do not take action!"

Xu Xuan roared. Huan Yan's cultivation lineage was not good at direct combat. At this moment, it was enough to weaken the Divine Union Talisman and disrupt Hua Gu's divine power.

'This talisman was definitely made by a person with great supernatural powers.'

Xu Xuan's mind stirred. This Divine Harmony Talisman should have been left by the Stone Man Dao Ancestor. It was the pinnacle of the Refining Mountain Dao and a talisman artifact. It seemed to have suffered a lot of damage, otherwise Illusionary Face alone would not have been able to suppress it.

The dragon leaped, summoning thunder and lightning. Xu Xuan's sword intent swept across the land, cutting through the obstruction and attempting to escape.

At this moment, Hua Gu used his Yuan Magnetic Force to firmly suppress Yun Cang, and reached out with one hand to tightly clamp down on Xu Xuanyu's horn, pressing down the dragon. At the same time, his chest swelled up, and the bright golden divine patterns on his face shone brightly.

A sense of extreme danger rose in Xu Xuan's heart, and he immediately activated the [Riding Without Blame] technique to escape.

Hua Gu did not use any suppression techniques. Huang Shi's hand merged with the jade horn, and no matter how Xu Xuan moved, it followed the dragon's body tightly.

The stone figure tilted its head back slightly, gathering all the golden energy in its lungs. With a gulp, it unleashed a torrent of golden energy that shot straight at Xu Xuanlong's head, as if thousands of blades were slicing through it, tearing open the black scales and spewing dragon blood into the sky.

The golden energy was etched onto the black scales, like carving patterns on a ritual vessel. It gradually spread from the dragon's head to its entire body. A smile appeared on Hua Gu's face as he accelerated the activation of his divine power.

【Inlaid Gold Engraving】, the way of gold, is the engraving of gold inlay. The vessel receives the respect due to it. The patterns formed by the condensation of gold energy are all over the dragon's head, connected with the body of Hua Gu, establishing some kind of invisible connection.

Xu Xuan made a decisive move, returning to his human form. He wielded the Lieque sword and unleashed a sword intent that separated him from Hua Gu.

But a very strange feeling arose, and the operation of [Cheng Wujiu] became somewhat sluggish. Every time it slipped away, it was instantly pulled back.

"We are both made of the same vessel, sculpted together; how can we escape?"

Hua Gu's use of this supernatural power was quite ingenious. He viewed the dragon and the stone man as one, and used gold to etch them together, making it difficult for them to separate, which perfectly countered [Cheng Wujiu].

At this moment, Yun Cang broke through the Yuan Magnetic Light and attacked again, revealing his original form. The unicorn whale charged with a torrent. Hua Gu's eyes were cold. He waved the Mountain-Driving Whip, and thousands of mountains and barriers fell down, blocking the two sides once again.

Ignoring the golden markings on his body, Xu Xuan activated the Thunder-Gathering Technique, recklessly consuming his magical power. With Yang Thunder and Yin Lightning in hand, the Thunder Palace Immortal General led his troops out, and brilliant thunder and fire rose in the sky, surrounding Hua Gu.

The void was sealed off for a moment, and the [Purple Heavenly Thunder] and [Faultless Profound Thunder] were activated together, causing their killing power to surge.

The Thunder-Grasping Formation is an essential technique of the Thunder Palace. Once activated, the Thunder Palace's troops will be at your command, with yang thunder and yin lightning clashing together, and one person will be subdued by the Thunder Palace's authority.

Heavenly soldiers and immortals formed an array. Xu Xuan turned his sword around, and a round of purple lightning and celestial sun appeared at the tip of the sword. It was the extreme of yang lightning, and its killing power increased again. It crashed down on Hua Gu.

The Holy Spirit once again unleashed the Dust Gate, attempting to suppress the killing intent. However, at this moment, Yun Cang exerted his power, the torrent washing away the dust, and the [Annihilation Separation] was unleashed, which precisely countered the opponent's [Quiet Dust Gate].

The purple lightning and celestial sun above Xu Xuan's sword were no longer obstructed. The sword intent roamed freely, breaking through Hua Gu's physical body. The lightning and sword intent raged, inch by inch eroding Huang Shi.

"Pure Source, when will you wait?"

The rainbow in the sky swayed, and Huan Yan shouted, causing the void to shatter. A stream of dark water surged from outside the Heavenly Pool at great speed, landing on Hua Gu's head in an instant.

"Hua Gu, today is the day you fall!"

A man in a gray-blue robe stepped out, his eyes like bright stars. He rode the clear and turbid currents of the Kan River to wash over the holy spirit's body, causing its stone form to gradually lose its sturdiness.

At the last moment, the Pure Origin True Person seized the opportunity to weaken the opponent's physical body. Xu Xuan once again wielded his sword, unleashing the Chaotic Sword Intent, which, combined with the nature of Yang Thunder, shattered Hua Gu's physical body into pieces.

The Holy Spirit, however, wore a smile on his face, showing no sign of panic. He simply said in a deep voice:

"Lingji, refine the mountain!"

On the Divine Sea, Mount Shengji rose from the ground, transforming into a beam of primordial yellow light that connected with Huagu. This Holy Spirit raised its head and swallowed the Divine Union Talisman, using Mount Shengji as its physical body and the talisman to sustain its life.

The opponent's injuries gradually healed, his gaze was cold, the bright light of the Gen Earth shone, the earth energy surged and transformed into a large array, trapping the four people in front of him.

With Huan Yan's rainbow light shattered, Hua Gu's aura rose inch by inch, already approaching the peak of the Purple Mansion realm, steadily overwhelming everyone present.

"If you retreat now, you may still save your lives."

As he spoke, Hua Gu turned his gaze to Xu Xuan, revealing his killing intent, and coldly said:
"Of course, it's better for the dragons of the Dark Swamp to die."
