Yuantian Pidao

Chapter 370 The Four Symbols Reverse Again

In Huoyuan City, Mount Ling is on the verge of collapse, and all living beings are filled with fear.

"Who made this move? Was it an outsider from the Purple Mansion?"

"That person seems to be the Taoist of Peace? Could it be that he has advanced to the Purple Mansion realm? But that shouldn't be the case, or perhaps he is actually a Purple Mansion cultivator in disguise?"

Looking up at the sky, the cultivators in Fire Origin City were both surprised and suspicious as they saw Jiang Chen manifest a hundred-foot-tall spiritual body, holding a precious pestle, with his aura flowing around him like a god.

Even today, Jiang Chen is a well-known figure in the Southern Jing Kingdom, and few people do not know him. However, even so, they find it difficult to associate Jiang Chen with the Purple Mansion. It is not that they underestimate Jiang Chen, but that the Purple Mansion is too far removed from their understanding of the Five Hundred Years of Low Spirit.

It was at this moment that the power within his body reached its limit, and his second-stage perfected soul felt somewhat overwhelmed. Jiang Chen swung the Five Sacred Mountains Stone Pestle in his hand.

In that instant, the energy of the Five Sacred Mountains circulated, transforming into illusory mountain images, adding even more weight to Jiang Chen's power. With just a swing of his pestle, he created an atmosphere of mountains collapsing and the earth splitting.

Seeing this scene, Chen Yongzu was extremely shocked. He never expected that such an enemy would appear at this critical moment.

"Is it an external Purple Mansion? No, although this power is vast, it does not reach the true Purple Mansion level. It is just that someone used a Purple Mansion treasure with some means. If it is really a Purple Mansion cultivator, I would most likely be dead if a treasure technique or divine power were to fall."

"I still have a chance now, and I also have a Purple Mansion Treasure."

With thoughts racing through his mind, Chen Yongzu swallowed the Corrupted Spirit Corpse Bead in one gulp, disregarding everything else.

"The Red Serpent Coils Around the Mountain".

The power of the Earthly Treasure surged within his body, and Chen Yongzu immediately used this power to activate the Three Tribulations Subduing Fire Chains. In that instant, the power of this Purple Mansion Treasure began to truly manifest.

With a roar, three chains of fire intertwined, and crimson flames scorched the void. A large scaly serpent materialized out of thin air, coiling around the mountain like a python, taking a defensive stance and protecting the entire palace.

It was at this moment that the power of the Five Sacred Mountains Stone Pestle descended.

With a thud, the divine being struck down, causing the earth to tremble and the mountains to shake. At this moment, the entire Fire Element City trembled, as if it were sinking. The Corpse Calamity Domain that enveloped the entire Fire Element City shattered with a roar. Only the Crimson Serpent roared, making a gesture of resistance.

But in the next instant, the terrifying force of the earth collapsing and mountains crumbling fell, the red serpent cried out, its scales shattered, and its momentum greatly diminished.

As a result of the backlash, Chen Yongzu, who was under the Three Tribulations Subduing Fire Chain, coughed up a mouthful of blood. His hair, which had returned to its original black color, turned gray again at this moment. However, Chen Yongzu was not surprised but happy because he could feel that the power of the treasure pestle had been almost completely released.

"Haha, I blocked it, I blocked it! With the Three Tribulations Subduing Fire Chains in hand and the Four Symbols Robe protecting me, what can you do to me?"

With disheveled hair and blood at the corner of his mouth, Chen Yongzu was filled with ecstatic joy. What he didn't notice was that after he swallowed the Corrupted Spirit Corpse Bead, his pupils had turned a grayish-white color.

Looking at Chen Yongzu from above, Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow.

"Chen Yongzu's behavior is somewhat strange. His soul seems to be mutating, and even his mind is having problems. Is this the price he pays for forcibly using the power of the earthly treasure? Or is there another reason?"

"However, his protective spell is indeed profound. The Four Symbols Revolving Wheel is perfectly integrated inside and out, and its defensive power is extremely strong. If it weren't for this spell protecting him, Chen Yongzu would definitely not have fared well, even with the protection of a treasure artifact, given the power that the Five Sacred Mountains Stone Pestle just unleashed."

Sensing something amiss, Jiang Chen once again mobilized the power of the Hundred Fruit Garden Secret Realm.

He poured all his perfected second-tier divine soul power into the Spirit Lord, thereby enhancing the Spirit Lord's control over the power of the secret realm. "If one attack fails, then let's try another."

With a sudden thought, ignoring the tearing pain in his soul, Jiang Chen once again poured his power into the Five Mountains Stone Pestle.

If you don't kill the snake, you'll suffer the consequences. Since he has already made his move, he naturally won't give Chen Yongzu the chance to refine the earthly treasure. After all, with Chen Yongzu's current foundation, he really has the potential to achieve the Purple Mansion realm.

Upon seeing Jiang Chen swing the magic pestle again and feeling the overwhelming aura that seemed to topple five mountains once more, Chen Yongzu's maniacal laughter abruptly ceased.

"How could he swing a second time? That doesn't make sense."

With these thoughts racing through his mind, Chen Yongzu desperately activated his secret technique, trying to absorb more of the treasure's power. Only in this way could he possibly block this attack.

At that very moment, as more power from the Corpse Calamity Pearl was absorbed, adding insult to injury, a strange rune emerged from his newly formed Dao Foundation, causing his Four Symbols Dao Foundation to reverse once again, which caused the power within his body to begin to spiral out of control.

In that instant, Chen Yongzu finally realized something was wrong.

"Was this brought by that scourge of the Daoist foundation? Oh no, I've fallen for their scheme."

Beset by internal and external troubles, Chen Yongzu was terrified.

At that very moment, Jiang Chen's second strike came down like a meteor falling to earth. As the Five Sacred Mountains Stone Pestle crashed down, a vast shadow descended, plunging the entire Fire Origin City into darkness. Then, with a deafening roar, the crimson serpent formed by the Three Tribulations Subduing Fire Chain instantly disintegrated, turning into a sky full of flames that vanished. The entire imperial palace collapsed along with it, raising endless dust and smoke.

When the smoke and dust cleared, the entire palace had vanished, leaving only a large crater. Huoyuan City was also reduced to fragments, with ruins everywhere.

Seeing this scene, everyone was speechless and desperately tried to escape. It was only because they had acted quickly and chose to flee immediately after the Corpse Calamity Domain was broken that they were affected by this attack.

As for ordinary people, with the Corpse Calamity Domain enveloping Fire Element City, they were all wiped out, leaving only Corpse Demons.

"Such methods are almost on par with the Purple Mansion realm, even if it's not. Does this mean that the Southern Jing Kingdom will now be dominated by the Taiping Sect?"

Running the fastest, Qu Tingshui looked at the figure in the sky and felt uneasy. She had some grudges with that Taoist Taiping before.

Just then, a gaze descended from the sky and saw her.

"Taiping Daoren..."

Gazing at each other from afar, Qu Tingshui's unease reached its peak. In that instant, she saw a silver lightning bolt in Jiang Chen's divine eyes.

Almost instinctively, she tried to escape, but at that moment, a thunderous sound rang out, and she suddenly stood still.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen withdrew his gaze. Almost simultaneously, the spiritual light dissipated, and Qu Tingshui's figure fell from mid-air, crashing into a pile of mangled flesh. She was dead, killed by the Xuan Yin Jing Po Lei.

From then on, both of the late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Southern Jing Kingdom died; one died at the hands of Chen Yongzu, and the other at the hands of Jiang Chen.
