Eternal Life through Drawing Lots

Chapter 302: Chapter 300: Entanglement

Refining a Sacred Artifact was a very long process.

Thus, Caiwei, Yu Qingyun, Xuezhi, and the others gradually stopped watching the Saints refine their Sacred Artifacts.

Among this group, Fang Yang was the one who held out the longest.

However, when Wine Lion the Great Saint later used a Great Divine Technique to accelerate the flow of time, he too had to withdraw.

In the end, he learned that among this new batch of Saints, the number of those who had successfully refined a Sacred Artifact was extremely small.

Sen Yue succeeded. Chen Kui succeeded. Mobai succeeded.

Only these three, and no one else.

This success rate was appallingly low.

This showed that the difficulty of refining a Sacred Artifact was considerable.

Meanwhile, as days turned into months, the day for the Saint Institute to finalize the Celestial, Earth, and Human Rankings drew ever closer.

「On this day.」

The sky was a vivid blue.

In a southeastern corner of the Wind Peng Dojo, a group of Fierce Beasts rested.

These Fierce Beasts were mostly of three types.

A Fire Eagle Group roosting in their nests, a school of Thunder Carp swimming in a pond, and a Frost Horse Group galloping on the grasslands.

This batch of Fierce Beasts had all been carefully chosen by Fang Yang.

There were five of each type, all at the Tier Four Peak realm.

Compared to them, his previous White Feathered Eagle, Electric Python, and Small Frost Horse were somewhat inferior.

But in his heart, Fang Yang was still more partial to his original three battle pets.

This was because these newly subdued Slave Beasts were combat-ready beasts he had created at the cost of their potential.

To put it another way, a single, full-power use of his killer move, the [Celestial Eagle Cross Spear], would cause three of the Fierce Beasts to lose all combat ability.

His power was immense, far too immense.

There were almost no Slave Beasts of the same realm that could withstand his power.

A gentle breeze slowly rose, rustling the robes of the two men.

Fang Hao gazed at the group of Fierce Beasts, his eyes fixed on the Fire Eagles, and fell into a daze.

After a long moment, he sighed wistfully. "I never thought that after entering the Saint Institute, one could obtain a Fire Eagle Group so easily."

He thought back to the past. If their Fang clan could have raised a group of Fire Eagles, the probability of producing Fire Eagle Essence would have greatly increased.

In other words, they could have ensured that geniuses emerged from every generation of young Fang clan members!

"It’s not that simple,"

Fang Yang said, shaking his head. "Just purchasing this batch of Fierce Beasts cost me nearly ten thousand Merit Points, and that’s not even counting the cost of feeding them."

Hearing this, Fang Hao gave a wry smile and changed the subject.

"With your help, I’ve refined the [Black Tortoise Spirit Armor] Spiritual Object and my strength has increased greatly."

"Not long ago, I defeated several people in a row and managed to enter the top ninety of the Celestial Ranking. Things have improved on all fronts."

"Haha, Ah Yang, you probably don’t know, but when Elder Dezhi and the others heard about the progress the three of us have made, they were overjoyed."

"Oh, right! Your White Feathered Eagle’s Bronze Tribe has been flourishing these past few years. Third Brother and Seventh Brother are also there helping out. Lu Yao’s talent is truly outstanding..."

His clan uncle, Fang Hao, said a great deal.

He spoke first of his own experiences, then of the situation in their clan lands, and finally about the circumstances of the three of them.

When he mentioned Fang Min, his tone grew somewhat complicated.

It wasn’t just that Fang Yang had surpassed him; even Fang Min was now gradually surpassing him as well.

It was an obvious fact that once the Celestial, Earth, and Human Rankings were finalized, Fang Yang and Fang Min would both break through to Tier Five in quick succession.

By then, he feared that before he even had a chance to act, his two juniors would have advanced to become Dao Seeds and reclaimed the Carp Eagle Blessed Land.

Fang Hao talked for a long time, only taking his leave at dusk.

Fang Yang looked down at the Fire Eagle Group and the other Fierce Beasts, lost in thought.

He knew that as the day of the rankings approached, Dongli, Fang Min, and the others who had left the Daoist Mansion of Eternal Life would definitely return.

In other words, the day when he would defeat Dongli, take the top spot, and secure the [Golden Sun Wind Roc Wings] Sacred Material was no longer far off!

’The Kun Peng path...’

A dark gleam flashed in his eyes.

He was about to obtain the Golden Sun Wind Roc Wings.

’But where am I supposed to get the legacy of the [Tai Chi Yin Yang Diagram Manifestation]?’

...

「Daoist Mansion of Eternal Life.」

「Qingyang Palace.」

In the sky, a torrent of lightning rained down like a waterfall.

Deep within the lightning, a phantom figure appeared.

This phantom figure gradually solidified, exuding a dangerous aura and an immense pressure.

It was actually trying to stop Su Dao from ascending to the Saint Realm!

"Good heavens, a scene like this is beyond belief."

Seeing this phantom figure, many of the watching Saints couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat for Su Dao.

When a prodigy underwent a tribulation to reach the Saint Realm, it would usually manifest as a Thunder Dao desolate beast, like a Thunder Flood Dragon.

For the heavenly tribulation to take the form of an ancient brand, however, was something only top-tier prodigies could trigger.

If the heavenly tribulation formed the brand of a Venerable, then one had to be a Young Venerable!

All of this now indicated that Su Dao had already touched the barrier of a Young Venerable and could see the backs of Sen Yue and the Great Sun Dragon Lady.

’Sen Yue, Su Dao... the Sen-Su rivalry.’

Below, Zhang Ye raised his head to watch.

Quite naturally, he put himself in Su Dao’s shoes.

He saw the competition between Sen Yue and Su Dao and thought of the competition between Fang Yang and himself.

At that moment, a divine light flickered incessantly in his eyes.

And when the tribulation’s brand was suppressed by the Tai Chi Yin Yang Diagram manifestation, his gaze gradually grew resolute.

He knew that if he continued to entangle himself with Fang Yang on the Kun Peng path, he would never be able to catch up.

He had to be like Su Dao and transcend their original field of competition.

’Return to the source, know the true self.’

Zhang Ye smiled. ’So, I will walk the ancient path again.’

He decided to leap off the path of the Zhang clan and no longer compete with the Fang clan according to the Sen clan’s design.

He would walk the path of the Nine-tailed Crocodile Dragon again!

During the last great change in the world, the paths of the Nine-tailed Crocodile Dragon and the Great Sun Golden Crow were broken. As a result, the Zhang and Fang clans were forced into gradual decline, eventually becoming little more than vassals to the Sen clan.

As for this great change in the world, Zhang Ye didn’t know if the Fang clan’s Great Sun Golden Crow path would be reconnected.

But he knew that he would give everything he had to reconnect the path of the Nine-tailed Crocodile Dragon.

BOOM!

A mighty roar echoed as the clouds and mist dispersed, and the world was filled with light.

The magnificent manifestation of the Tai Chi Yin Yang Diagram was imprinted upon the hearts of everyone present.

Su Dao had become a Saint!

Meanwhile, Hei Liwu, who was watching from the side, felt a stir in his heart.

Hei Liwu, the current monarch of the Hei family, was widely acknowledged to have talent and aptitude second only to Sen Yue. He was a Young Great Saint who had walked the path of ’confluent power’.

At this moment, seeing the two poles of black and white within the Yin Yang Diagram, Hei Liwu was moved. He couldn’t help but think of the phantom image of his own Black Moon Water Kun.

Gradually, he began to see the forms of the Black Moon Water Kun and the Golden Sun Wind Roc within it.

’The Black Moon Water Kun can form two poles with the Golden Sun Wind Roc?!’

He was deeply shaken.

He had already refined the [Heart of the Black Moon Water Kun] Sacred Material.

Now that this thought had occurred to him, he felt more and more that it was a viable path.

And so, he now wanted the [Golden Sun Wind Roc Wings] Sacred Material.

And the simplest way to obtain the Golden Sun Wind Roc Wings was, without a doubt, to reach the top ten of the Earth Ranking and choose that Sacred Material as his reward.

Finally, he turned his attention to Dongli.

Because the Golden Sun Wind Roc possessed extreme speed, its wings had always been one of the most sought-after Sacred Materials for those in the top ten of the Earth Ranking.

Furthermore, due to the environmental requirements, Golden Sun Wind Rocs were difficult to raise, making their wings both rare and expensive.

Hei Liwu’s expression was calm. "Dongli, help me obtain the [Golden Sun Wind Roc Wings], and I will trade you a [Thunder Flood Dragon Soul] and a First-Level Soul Dao Sacred Realm Skill for it."

While Dongli was still deliberating, Hei Liwu magnanimously produced a dim jade scroll.

This dim jade scroll was that very Soul Dao Sacred Realm Skill!

"Alright, I will do everything in my power!"

Dongli’s eyes burned with fervor as he snatched the dark jade scroll.

Soul Dao cultivators were rare, Soul Dao Skills were even rarer, to say nothing of a Soul Dao Skill that led directly to the Saint Realm.

Even though he possessed a perfect-grade True Dragon Spirit Body of the Soul River and was the son-in-law of Soldier Star Great Saint, objectively speaking, he didn’t have many Soul Dao Skills himself.

Now that he had obtained this skill, he had a chance to push his Soul Foundation to the brink of one hundred thousand souls.

A Soul Foundation of one hundred thousand souls—that was the domain of a Saint!
