I made the entire cultivation world cry

Chapter 148 Reward (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The power of the Jade Shattering Talisman is no less than that of the Immortal Slaying Talisman, but Jiang Yi's true essence has been largely depleted by the Talisman, leaving him with little strength to activate the Cauldron Control Token.

Just as Jiang Yi was about to give up on this attempt, Hua Gu and Hong Li unexpectedly rushed into the Yin-Yang Pendant at Jiang Yi's waist.

The half-white, half-red lotus pendant shone brightly, and surging streams of ice and fire power rushed into Jiang Yi's dantian, transforming into Yin-Yang True Qi, making the dim Yu Ding tablet in his palm shine brightly once again.

The chains inside the cauldron continued to stir, dragging the remnant spirit of the Azure Emperor further into the cauldron.

Zhao Cangyun stuffed the jade snake into his robes, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and stood up. "Senior Sister, you can seal it as you please. I'll handle this!"

"And I!"

Shen Puning put away the precious pearl, took the talisman and stood up again.

Shang Shixu and Xin Wushuang remained silent, only nodding to Jiang Yi from a distance.

Jiang Yi felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She sat down directly under the cauldron, letting the invisible energy protect her. She then activated the Leaf-Blinding Technique to conceal her form and remotely input true essence into the Cauldron Control Token.

The lingering remnant of the Azure Emperor let out a deafening roar, his half-merciful face completely distorted, and the chains in his abdomen tightened with a clanging sound, resisting the power of the Cauldron Control Token.

The twelve green wooden swords disintegrated in mid-air, transforming into a torrent of Yi wood lightning that poured down, turning the entire plaza into a violent pool of lightning!

"Hold on, everyone!"

Zhao Cangyun plunged his twin blades deep into the ground, the blades soaked in blood. Golden fire true essence burst forth from every pore, transforming into an inverted giant bowl to protect everyone.

The moment the lightning struck, the veins on his neck bulged, and the phantom of the Qilin roared to the sky amidst the golden flames, forcefully withstanding the immense thunder.

Each strike sent shivers down his spine, yet his straight back remained unbent.

At this moment, the phantom of the Azure Emperor clung to everyone like a malignant tumor.

"Can those who betray their teachers and abandon their principles meet a good end?"

The deep voice caused Shang Shixu's flute playing to suddenly go out of tune. He frowned, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, but he still insisted on playing the insect-controlling melody.

Can those who are isolated and abandon their families cross the sea of ​​suffering?

Xin Wushuang remained calm and as if he hadn't heard anything, continuing to draw his bow and shoot arrows, pinning the green vines that had crawled up from among the vines to the ground.

Can those who rely on their parents' influence and forget their parents' kindness achieve success?

"none of your business!"

Shen Puning cursed and almost threw a punch, but fortunately she held back and threw the evil-suppressing talisman at the revived fire spirit of the alchemy furnace.

"roll!"

The moment the phantom appeared beside Zhao Cangyun, he slashed at him with his sword. The azure lightning struck down, but he took it head-on. His back was charred and bleeding, but he didn't even flinch.

"Its power is not even as strong as Yun Tuanzi's Wind and Thunder Claws!"

Four illusory figures of the Azure Emperor appeared simultaneously beside Jiang Yi.

The "blinded view" technique was useless against the Green Emperor's lingering resentment; he could still see Jiang Yi.

Before the phantoms could speak, the Heart-Piercing Mirror flew out on its own, its surface emitting golden light that instantly annihilated all four phantoms.

Four bolts of azure lightning struck down, but the Heart-Piercing Mirror took the initiative to meet them, using its mirror surface to block the lightning.

Seeing that the illusion of asking the heart was useless, the Azure Emperor waved his sleeve, and the ink-colored spirit words emerged from all the gaps like a tide, twisting and rushing towards the foreheads of everyone.

Jiang Yi was startled and was about to use the Mind-Cleansing Technique to help the four resist when she saw a ruthless glint flash in Zhao Cangyun's eyes. With a smile on his lips, he suddenly slashed across Zhao Cangyun's left arm, and blood with a golden halo splattered out.

The moment the blood droplet touched the spirit of the characters, the ink characters emitted a sizzling sound like a branding iron being plunged into water, and then turned into blue smoke and dissipated.

Jiang Yi increased his speed, and the blue light of the Yuding brand in his palm surged, while the sound of the chains twisting was like a death knell.

The chains tightened, and the remnant spirit of the Azure Emperor suddenly abandoned all attacks, condensing all his power into a three-foot-long azure blade, the tip of which pointed directly at Jiang Yi's brow.

Before the sword even arrived, the invisible aura surrounding Jiang Yi was torn apart like thin paper, and the illusion of being blinded by a leaf instantly failed.

"Don't hurt my senior sister!"

Zhao Cangyun roared and rushed to Jiang Yi's side like a golden meteor, crossing his arms to meet the three-foot-long green sword!
The moment the golden flames and the azure light collided, a protective scale given to him by a demon clan inside his robes shattered into dust.

Zhao Cangyun's chest was torn open by the aftershocks of the sword energy, leaving a deep, bone-revealing gash, yet he did not retreat an inch!

As the cracks spread on Shang Shixu's jade flute, he still forced out a sharp tone with his true energy. Three swarms of insects sprang up in response, forming chains that wrapped around the sword hilt and dragged it backward with a hissing sound. The sword's edge was even pulled slightly off course!
"Earthly Fiend Seal, released!"

Shen Puning spat a mouthful of blood onto her arms, and her plump body shrank at a visible speed, as if her flesh and blood had been drained by a secret technique!

She suddenly spread her arms wide, and the earthy yellow aura emanating from her body condensed into a pair of giant phantom hands, each over ten feet long, with rough knuckles gripping the green wooden sword blade and pushing it upwards.

The moment the sword pierced the giant hand, dozens of bloody gashes appeared on Shen Puning's hands, and the flesh on her forearms rolled back as if she were being slowly sliced ​​to death.

Her face contorted in pain, tears welling in her eyes. She clenched her teeth and gripped the giant hand even tighter, sparks flying as the blade rubbed against her palm.

"Wanli!"

With a long cry, the golden eagle transformed into a streak of light and crashed into Xin Wushuang's back, causing its golden feathers to flutter.

Xin Wushuang bled from all seven orifices, but forcibly used the combined power of the spirit beast to draw his bow and shoot out a blood-red golden arrow entwined with wind marks.

The arrow trailed a spiral of air in the air, and the moment it collided with the Azure Emperor's giant sword, the golden arrow light exploded like a brilliant sun.

boom!
The greatsword trembled violently, the wind marks from the arrows swirled around its blade, and the crimson golden light and sword energy tore at each other wildly.

Xin Wushuang's longbow snapped instantly, the backlash causing her to cough up a mouthful of blood. The arrow's residual force hadn't dissipated, forcing the sword's edge back another three inches! Everyone worked together to buy Jiang Yi a moment, while Hua Gu and Hong Li also gave their all in the Yin-Yang Pendant. Jiang Yi's nose stung, and the Yu Ding Token under her palm suddenly burst forth with a dazzling blue light.

The chains interwoven with azure light finally dragged the lingering remnant of the Azure Emperor into the cauldron, and the last glance of that half-merciful face at Jiang Yi was like a poisoned knife.

"Can thieves escape divine retribution?"

With a deafening roar, the world fell silent.

The green vines guarded the fallen like withered grass, the fire essence of the alchemy furnace turned into green smoke, and the embers of thunder and fire scattered like fireflies.

Everyone collapsed from exhaustion.

Zhao Cangyun lay sprawled on his back in a pool of blood, the gruesome wound on his chest oozing blood and foam with each burst of laughter.

"Hahaha, Senior Sister, I have not failed you!"

Jiang Yi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and looked at the group of people who were staggering about. He suddenly felt that this miserable scene was a thousand times more beautiful than any grand spectacle of a celestial sect.

"Gentlemen, we've won!"

"Haha, hiss—"

Shen Puning's smile aggravated her arm wound, causing her to wince in pain and tears to well up in her eyes. Finally, she couldn't hold back any longer and burst into tears.

"It hurts so much, waaaaaah..."

Xin Wushuang's face was covered in blood. Looking at the broken bow, her expression was sorrowful. She bit her trembling lips to suppress her emotions.

Shang Shixu stroked the cracked jade flute with a pained expression, and looking at the insect corpses scattered on the ground, he felt like crying.

Only Zhao Cangyun was still laughing heartlessly, and Jiang Yi shook her head with a wry smile.

I almost forgot that they were just a group of young teenagers.

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Yi used her last strength to perform a magic incantation, first quickly healing Shen Puning's arm, who was writhing and crying in pain, and then helping Xin Wushuang and Shang Shixu recover.

Zhao Cangyun was actually the most seriously injured, but seeing that he could still laugh, Jiang Yi treated him last.

The group exchanged knowing smiles, all tacitly understanding the strange phenomena that had occurred to each of them during the battle.

Even with close friends, it's important to maintain boundaries and not pry into their secrets.

Wow!
Suddenly, the sound of chains came from inside the cauldron, startling Zhao Cangyun so much that he jumped up from the ground, and the others were also terrified.

Fortunately, it was not an afterimage of the Azure Emperor, but five beams of light of different colors that flew out of the cauldron and hovered in mid-air.

A hunting bow and quiver, a jade flute with a pendant, a painting scroll and a brush, a straight knife, and a small green jade ball shaped like a celestial globe.

The five items, once they appeared, automatically sought their owners.

The hunting bow and quiver flew to Xin Wushuang's front, while the calligraphy scroll was caught by Shen Puning.

The jade flute belonged to Shang Shixu, and the knife naturally belonged to Zhao Cangyun.

Jiang Yi raised her hand, and the walnut-sized, green ball fell into her hand. It was made of three layers of jade rings, each with different markings.

Jiang Yi looked up and compared it with the large astronomical instrument in the sky above the square. Every detail was exactly the same. She gathered all the jade rings together and they could even turn into a ring.

But... what's the point?
Looking at the others, their eyes shone brightly, clearly very satisfied with what they held.

Zhao Cangyun excitedly held up the black iron knife in his hand, its blade adorned with flame patterns.

"Senior Sister, this is a magic weapon even better than a magic artifact, and it can gradually be upgraded into a spiritual weapon!"

Most Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators use magic artifacts. Having a top-grade magic artifact during the Foundation Establishment stage is enough to satisfy most Foundation Establishment cultivators.

Magical treasures are even more powerful, and most of them can only be obtained by Golden Core cultivators.

And magical artifacts are even rarer.

Zhao Cangyun's sword is named "Burning Prison". When held in his hand, it resonates with his demon blood, allowing him to absorb blood to heal wounds and also enabling him to secretly inject demonic power to enhance its power without being detected by others. It is practically tailor-made for him.

Shang Shixu also loved the jade flute. "Although my flute skills are not good, this 'Cangming Yin' combined with 'Qinglin Zhui' which mainly uses water and secondarily uses wood greatly makes up for my shortcomings and makes me more adept at controlling insects."

Shang Shixu immediately tried playing a piece, and the sound was clean and clear, which broadened the range of his insect-controlling music and allowed him to perform it better.

Xin Wushuang didn't even bother to wipe the blood off his face; his eyes gleamed as he stood up to test the bow.

The bow is named 'Skybreaker', which is primarily associated with metal and secondarily with wind, greatly enhancing the power and speed of her arrows.

The quiver, named 'Windwalker', can automatically condense wind into arrows and transform into wind wings, allowing her to fly swiftly and solving the problem of insufficient mobility caused by having to specifically seek high ground every time.

"Ah Yi, how did this cauldron know that I really wanted to cultivate the Way of Painting? The 'Scroll of Myriad Images' and the 'Brush Without Edge' have arrived at just the right time. This trip has been worthwhile!"

Shen Puning was quite surprised as she tore open the blank scroll and examined the brush.

The brush without a tip can draw talismans in mid-air. When combined with the Scroll of Myriad Manifestations, it can condense the transformed objects into real ink shadows for use against enemies. The power of the ink shadows will be affected by the type of ink used and the level of detail in the drawing.

Each of these four magical treasures has its own corresponding instructions and usage methods when explored with divine sense.

The Azure Emperor was well-versed in the Way of Inquiry into the Heart, so it was not difficult for the Creation Longevity Cauldron to provide them with magical treasures that suited their desires.

Jiang Yi was completely bewildered, fiddling with the object in her hand for a long time without knowing its function or usage.

It doesn't come with an instruction manual, bad review!
