Chapter 335: Chapter 182: Full Strength Recovered, One Man Fights 1 State
However, the sharp sword swept across the void with a sudden slash.
The Golden-Winged Roc and the other demons felt their spirits waver, as if their very futures were about to be severed by this one strike!
This was not an attack on the physical body or the Divine Soul, but on the even more esoteric concept of Destiny.
Even the Venerable Spiritual Treasures in their hands offered no protection at all.
Among them, the Cyan Flood Dragon, who had the lowest Cultivation, couldn’t even muster the strength to resist and perished instantly.
There wasn’t a single wound on its body, yet it had died bizarrely, its form and spirit utterly annihilated.
The remaining Golden-Winged Roc and the giant, winged serpent didn’t dare to make another move. They hastily activated their Venerable Spiritual Treasures to protect themselves and retreated at top speed.
"Ah!"
Ao Guang’s blood energy boiled around him as he tried to force the sharp sword out.
But the fiercer his blood energy surged, the more viciously the sword cut.
This continued until the very last piece of his flesh was sliced away.
The Thousand Dragons Battle Emperor Armor finally fell from his body!
BUZZ!
The void shuddered violently, enveloping the trembling, humming Thousand Dragons Battle Emperor Armor and instantly teleporting it away.
THUD—
Without the Thousand Dragons Battle Emperor Armor, Ao Guang could no longer hold himself up and collapsed to the ground. Not a single good piece of flesh remained on his body.
Only a few scraps of shredded meat clung to his stark white bones.
If not for his special bloodline and astonishing constitution, he would have been deader than dead!
Even so, he was now only hanging on by a single thread of breath.
He could die at any moment.
Seeing this, Lin Miaoyi and the others’ expressions changed drastically.
Any thought of resistance they had just entertained was instantly extinguished.
They knew they didn’t possess Ao Guang’s strength and could never withstand the torture of a thousand cuts.
At that moment, the voice that terrified their Heart Spirits rang out once more.
"You are all welcome to try and escape. If you’re not going to try, then hand over every Spiritual Treasure and Magical Treasure you have!"
Lin Miaoyi bit her red lip:
"Senior, if we hand over our Spiritual Treasures, will you let us go?!"
Wang Xiao’s voice sounded:
"I wouldn’t stoop to deceiving you. Besides, do you have any other choice right now?!"
Lin Miaoyi sighed softly and finally relented:
"Fine. I hope Senior is a person of his word!"
She took out the Ten Thousand Rivers Celestial Lotus and her other Magical Treasures and placed them on the ground.
Seeing this, Qian Dongliu and the others, as well as the two demons—the Golden-Winged Roc and his companion—could only put down their Spiritual Treasures and Magical Treasures.
Although their Spiritual Treasures and Magical Treasures were extremely precious, they knew that as long as there’s life, there’s hope.
As long as they could keep their lives, they could get their treasures back sooner or later!
BUZZ!
In an instant, the void trembled, and all the Spiritual Treasures and Magical Treasures vanished without a trace!
「Within the Grotto Heaven.」
Wang Xiao looked at the plundered Spiritual Treasures and Magical Treasures, a tight line forming on his lips.
Under the power of his Analyze All Things Talent.
The grades of these Spiritual Treasures and Magical Treasures could not be hidden from him.
Among them, the most precious was undoubtedly Ao Guang’s Thousand Dragons Battle Emperor Armor.
It had been forged with the scales of ten Celestial Venerable Dragon Kings—who had all opened their own Grotto Heavens—as the primary material. This was supplemented by the blood essence and scales of over a thousand dragons, ranging from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Venerable Dragon Race.
It had reached the ranks of a top-tier Supreme Treasure.
In terms of power, it was not inferior to his Celestial Destiny Sword.
Unfortunately, as powerful as the Thousand Dragons Battle Emperor Armor was, it could not unleash its full potential in the hands of a Dragon Race member at the Foundation Establishment Realm.
What’s more, the Destiny and Cause and Effect Path that Wang Xiao comprehended was exceptionally esoteric.
Without comprehending one of the Nine Great Origin Paths, it was impossible to resist!
Add to that the support of the Time and Space Great Dao.
Defeating this Ao Guang was naturally not difficult.
Besides the Thousand Dragons Battle Emperor Armor, Lin Miaoyi’s Ten Thousand Rivers Celestial Lotus was not the least bit weaker; it also belonged to the category of Supreme Treasure!
’With these materials, my Mokoshu Infinite Great will be able to open at least half of the Acupoints in my body!’
Wang Xiao wanted to fully activate his five Dao Fruits.
His Inner World and Great Daoist Nascent Soul also needed to be exceptionally refined.
Cultivating the Nirvana Ninth Transformation, which strengthened the Inner World and Great Daoist Nascent Soul, required coordination with the Mokoshu Infinite Great.
Therefore, the Essence of Gold Qi needed to open the Acupoints was essential!
"Senior, we have handed over all our Spiritual Treasures and Magical Treasures. Please release the restrictions and let us out." Lin Miaoyi’s voice drifted over.
Wang Xiao replied in a calm tone:
"I will naturally let you out, but not now."
How could he not know that letting Lin Miaoyi and the others go would inevitably attract the Venerables, and even the Celestial Venerables, from their Sects?
With his current strength, he was not yet able to deal with the Sects backing them.
He first had to finish absorbing the resources within this Grotto Heaven and completely recover his strength.
Hearing this, Lin Miaoyi and the others couldn’t help but look indignant.
Lin Miaoyi gritted her teeth and asked:
"When does Senior intend to let us out?"
Wang Xiao sent his voice to her:
"When the time comes, I will naturally let you go."
After saying that, he paid Lin Miaoyi and the others no more mind, striding deeper into the Grotto Heaven.
In the outermost area, spiritual plants grew, exuding a fresh fragrance.
These plants bore grains of rice the size of a fist. Each grain was plump and translucent, shaped like a miniature sword.
’This is Sword Rice from the ancient era. Consuming it can invisibly strengthen one’s constitution and reform the body!’
Wang Xiao’s eyes flickered.
In the ancient era, although Celestial Venerables had long since reached a state where they no longer needed to eat, they would still plant and consume some Spirit Rice.
Ordinary Spirit Rice was, of course, not worthy of them.
This Sword Rice was one of the most famous types of Spirit Rice from ancient times.
A single grain of this rice was valuable enough to be compared to a Meridian Opening Pill!
’Hm? And there’s Thunder Stone, too. This is something I need right now. With this Thunder Stone, I can use it in place of the Celestial Tribulation and directly transform my Dantian into a Purple Mansion!’
