The movement of the restrained earth veins was very large. In addition, the earth veins at the Tomb of the Fallen King were severely damaged, and there were even remnants of Yin energy from the underworld. Therefore, Zhang Taichu had to set up a huge source magic array when repairing it.
Furthermore, since he doesn't have a divine artifact like the Divine Source for setting up formations, the formation process will take longer and create a greater commotion.
Not to mention cultivators, even ordinary people can clearly see it once they step into the territory of the Tomb of the Fallen King.
Tuoba Yu and his two subordinates at the Dragon Transformation Realm quickly ventured deep into the Tomb of the Fallen King and, following the Source Technique Array, swiftly located Zhang Taichu's position.
At this moment, Zhang Taichu had just finished reinforcing a ley line and was preparing to rest. He took out the deity passed down by the Source Celestial Master and listened to the lecture while resting.
Due to his lack of experience and low cultivation level, he failed to notice the intrusion of Tuoba Yu and his companions immediately, which led to the discovery of his secret.
"That's... Divine Mark Purple Gold?! One of the Nine Great Immortal Golds! Although it's not large in size, if it were auctioned in the Holy City, it could fetch at least a million catties of divine essence!"
One of Hualong's subordinates exclaimed in surprise, while another immediately retorted.
"Who would auction off immortal gold? Although the divine trace purple gold in that kid's hand is not large enough to make a Dao-attaining artifact, it is enough to make a small protective artifact. If I got it, I would definitely not sell it."
"Moreover, if one can weave together the Dao and reason, with sufficient magical power, even a magical artifact the size of a toothpick can be transformed into a giant sword tens of meters long. This thing is priceless!"
The two dragon-transformed subordinates started arguing, while Tuoba Yu, after observing carefully, instantly revealed a look of surprise and greed in his eyes.
"Shut up, listen carefully, can you hear chanting?"
The two dragon-transformation subordinates nodded simultaneously.
"Yes, it seems to have come from inside the Divine Mark Purple Gold Pearl. Is it some kind of inheritance? It's very different from the cultivation techniques we practice."
"Fool, that's the legacy of the Source Master! This kid received the legacy of the first Source Master!"
Tuoba Yu was so excited that his face turned red and his hands trembled.
Upon hearing this, the two subordinates who had transformed into dragons were equally shocked. Then, one of the older subordinates realized something.
"Legend has it that the Nine Great Immortal Golds are not only the supreme materials for forging imperial weapons, but also possess even more mysterious immortal gold mysteries. Among them, the mystery of Divine Mark Purple Gold seems to be capturing the traces of the Dao between heaven and earth."
"This kid looks very young, and his cultivation level is only at the Life Spring Realm, yet he dares to come to the Tomb of the Fallen King. He must have accidentally obtained a piece of Divine Mark Purple Gold and luckily comprehended the profound meaning of Immortal Gold. He came here specifically to comprehend it... no, he stole the inheritance of the Source Celestial Master."
This subordinate was very good at flattery. As soon as he saw that Tuoba Yu's expression was not right, he immediately changed his tune and said that Zhang Taichu was a thief who stole the Yuan Tianshi's inheritance.
"That's right, that's right. The legacy of the Source Master rightfully belongs to the Source Arts family. Who does he think he is, daring to covet it? He's simply courting death. Don't worry, young master, I'll destroy him right now."
Having said that, the subordinate of the Dragon Transformation Realm was about to make a move. For him, who was at the Dragon Transformation Realm, killing a minor cultivator at the Life Spring Realm was easier than crushing an ant.
"Don't kill him, I still have many questions to ask."
"clear."
Tuoba Yu's face was full of arrogance as he was already calculating how to maximize his benefits. He would not directly bring the Yuan Tianshi's inheritance home; if he did, he would not be the one to become the Yuan Tianshi.
Although he had boasted that he was the most outstanding genius of the Source Arts family, he knew better than anyone else whether he was or not.
Once the lineage of Master Yuan is made public, it's uncertain who will comprehend it first. What if someone else does it before him? Wouldn't he become a great victim?
Tuoba Yu was making his own plans, while his subordinate, Hualong, had already taken action.
A massive hand, tens of meters wide and capable of blotting out the sky, slammed down on Zhang Taichu. The enormous commotion startled Zhang Taichu from his studies. He reacted with lightning speed, not even bothering to get up, but instead sinking into the earth.
"boom"
With a loud bang, a crater tens of meters wide and several meters deep was created where Zhang Taichu had just been sitting cross-legged. The crater was shaped like a hand.
The massive shockwave not only spread throughout the entire Tomb of the Fallen King, but was also sensed by Zhang Taichu, who had hidden underground.
"This kind of destructive power is at least at the fourth level of the realm. I was too careless and didn't consider the possibility of others arriving."
Zhang Taichu really wanted to slap himself twice, but there was no point in saying anything now. Just as he was about to run away, he stopped.
"With my mastery of Origin Techniques, no one should be able to stop me from escaping underground. At the very least, no one below the Sendai Realm can stop me, and even a King from the third level of the Immortal Realm might not be able to stop me."
The ancestral ginseng in the Kunlun Secret Realm on Earth is a good example of this. At that time, there was a Dao-slaying king like Longma in the Kunlun Secret Realm.
However, it could not capture the Kunlun Ancestral Ginseng, a medicine king second only to the elixir of immortality. Although this was largely due to the existence of the Great Emperor's magic array, it was undeniable that the dragon horse could not capture the ancestral ginseng instantly.
When Zu Shen was being pursued by Long Ma, a Dao-slaying king, he had time to escape into the Great Emperor's formation.
"Once you master the Source Technique, you can move quickly by using the earth's veins, even faster than flying on a rainbow. With the protection of the earth, ordinary cultivators simply cannot catch up. However, I cannot leave now; I must first confirm one thing."
Zhang Taichu activated his Source Technique, combining his senses with the earth. In an instant, the vast earth became his eyes and ears, allowing him to listen to any sounds on the ground.
"Useless trash! You haven't even caught a single person at the Life Spring Realm. What are you doing? Dig three feet into the ground right now! You must find that kid and the Divine Mark Purple Gold in his possession!"
"That's the legacy of the first generation of Source Masters; we must seize it!"
Tuoba Yu was jumping up and down cursing, and his two dragon-transformed subordinates dared not utter a sound. They could only unleash their great magic power to start digging.
Hundreds and thousands of tons of soil and rocks were blown away by them, turning them into a human demolition team!
Zhang Taichu was hiding hundreds of meters underground and wasn't worried about being discovered anytime soon, but at this moment, his face looked grim.
"The worst thing still happened. They did discover the Divine Mark Purple Gold, as well as the scriptures and deities within it. Moreover, the young man immediately recognized it as the inheritance of the Source Celestial Master. In addition, despite his weak strength, he dared to insult those two experts to their faces..."
"A family specializing in Source Arts?! This must be an outstanding disciple from a family specializing in Source Arts. This is really troublesome!"
Having thoroughly read the original novel, Zhang Taichu was well aware of the status and influence of the Source Arts Clan in the early stages of Shrouding the Heavens. It could be said that in an era where the Great Dao was suppressed and even a second-generation immortal could become the Holy Lord of a Holy Land, the Source Arts Clan was a powerful force that even the major Holy Lands had to treat with respect.
They are respected not only because they can help the Holy Land identify Originium, but also because they are very strong in combat.
Although the Source Earth Master is far less powerful than the Source Celestial Master, its combat strength is in no way inferior to that of a second-level Immortal. Moreover, there is more than one Source Earth Master in the Source Arts family.
"Once these three people pass the message back and the people of the Source Arts Clan find out that I not only have the inheritance of the Source Master, but also the divine weapon material of Divine Mark Purple Gold, my fate will probably not be any better than Ye Fan's."
"At that time, we'll likely face encirclement and suppression from various powerful forces. My small frame can't withstand Ye Fan's attacks. I'll either be beaten to death or captured and lose my freedom. So, these three guys must die!"
