Chapter 291: Chapter 195: Harvest_1

After the great battle, the shock to the heavens and the earth didn’t cease.

Mount Tianshu, once Liang Country’s number one Spirit Land, had now turned into a dark abyss, a chaotic realm of death, unbalanced and disordered.

A Divinity Transformation, truly a Great Cultivator, had the power to change an area’s environment with ease.

Just now, the intensity of the battle within the formation was no less than that of a Divinity Transformation, and the final move was earth-shattering. Sacrificing the Tianshu Spirit Vein and activating the Big Dipper Formation, it was an all-or-nothing strike, do or die. It broke the balance of this place’s heaven and earth, as well as its spatiotemporal order, leading to the current state of absolute chaos.

The realm was in utter chaos, terrifying indeed, with unknown dangers buried within.

Not to mention Golden Core cultivators, even Nascent Souls would likely face a nine-in-ten chance of death upon entering.

It wasn’t just internally chaotic; the external areas were also not safe. The surrounding regions for thousands of miles were affected by the disturbance.

The sky was dark; the land was dim. Sand flew and rocks scuttled; dirt and smog tumbled wildly, and occasionally, streams of chaotic void energy would burst forth from the realm, causing onlookers to shudder in fear and feel as though their souls were about to depart their bodies.

“Is this the power of a Nascent Soul?”

“More than just Nascent Souls, much more!”

“The Spell King’s capabilities are terrifying indeed!”

“The Tianshu Sect… to think it had such potential!”

“Is the Spell King alive or dead?”

“Not a single disciple of Green Jade Mountain has been seen; could it be that the Spell King had made arrangements in advance?”

“What will become of Liang Country hereafter?”

“Thank goodness for that person’s timely warning, otherwise, we would have been reduced to bones under the aftermath of the battle.”

“We must not linger in this place for long!”

“Let’s leave quickly!”

Witnessing the aftermath of the great battle and the landscape that had turned into a realm of death, people were discussing fervently, still shaken.

Afterward, they dared not stay any longer and quickly withdrew, each going their separate ways, distancing themselves from this troublesome place.

A single battle wiped out the Tianshu Sect, and Taoist magic was also gone.

What followed was inevitable chaos in the Liang Kingdom Cultivation Realm unless the “Thunder Lightning Mana King” reappeared or the Green Jade Mountain disciples took control of the situation.

The order system established over the last ten years had crumbled almost entirely, if not completely.

But…

“It was a necessary evil!” Xu Yang sighed in the Nine Ritual Altars within Fish and Dragon Island.

Within the sigh, Xu Yang extended his hand, and the void rippled visibly.

Waves emerged in the void, carrying the dejected energy of chaos, and a seal fell, already covered in scars.

The Thunder Fire Rebellion Seal of the Three Mountains and Five Sacred Peaks!

This seal, this Spiritual Treasure, was now heavily damaged, with apparent cracks and defects, its Earth Aura dissipating and pure Yang golden light fading intermittently, causing Xu Yang an immense head-splitting pain.

Xu Yang disregarded the pain, collected the damaged Spiritual Treasure, and only when the almost collapsed and ethereal Yang God returned to his body did the intense pain in his head slightly abate.

The Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor was indeed formidable, allowing a Nascent Soul to fight alone against Three Cultivations within the formation, overpowering three great Spiritual Treasures and Divine Skills.

But even the strongest has its limits. The strength of the Three Cultivations of Tianshu had reached the boundary of Divinity Transformation. The power of the three Spiritual Treasures combined with the big formation in a relentless bombardment. How could he remain unscathed?

If it had been his flesh-and-blood body, he would have suffered grievous injuries long ago.

The human body has limits, as does flesh and blood. Even if one could withstand the power and defense of combat, keeping up with the consumption and recovery is another story.

It was only because of the Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor, powered by tens of millions of Spirit Stones, with Yuan Spirit converted into Mana as energy, and a large number of Magic Artifact components available for replacement, that it could sustain such intense battle and maintain its combat strength.

Xu Yang spent who knows how many Spirit Stones, replaced who knows how many Magic Artifacts, to stand tall against the continuous bombardment of the Divine Skills of the three individuals, enduring to the very end.

Did the group from Tianshu Sect really think they were facing a single individual in combat?

No, they were facing the Wandao School, Fish and Dragon Island, tens of thousands of Spirit Monsters under Xu Yang, as well as the millions of Cultivators working for Green Jade Mountain in Liang Country.

They weren’t just confronting an individual but an entire system, an institution, and a set of mature industrial technology and complete Taoist traditions.

They were not merely blasted apart by the Divine Skills and Spiritual Treasures; rather, they were crushed by Spirit Stones, Mana Money, and the immense material and human resources.

Gathering the collective strength of many is just like this.

Of course, Xu Yang paid a heavy price.

COUNTLESS Spirit Stones were consumed.

Numerous Magic Artifacts were damaged.

With the final all-in strike, not only was the newly acquired Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor thrown into the fray, but tens of millions of Artifact-grade components were destroyed, reduced to ashes, without even the chance to be retrieved.

Even the core of the Mech Armor, the Spiritual Treasure itself—the Thunder Fire Rebellion Seal freshly forged from the Three Mountains and Five Sacred Peaks—suffered extremely severe damage.

Even Xu Yang’s Yang God, the actual manipulator of the Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor, nearly perished in the final onslaught.

Had it been the usual Mech Armor at the level of one hundred thousand artifacts, the Yang God that Xu Yang had split off would have unquestionably been annihilated.

Currently, his Cultivation level is only at Nascent Soul, not yet a Divinity Transformation. Although he has life-preserving techniques such as the Soul-Hiding Spells and the Earth Deity Incense Golden Body, even if his Yang God were destroyed, his life would not be threatened. However, the recovery and continuation of his practice would unavoidably take time and affect his cultivation.

For now, it might be a matter of decades for Xu Yang to reaccumulate the components to reconstruct the Mech Armor, nourish the Spiritual Treasure, and heal the injuries of the Yang God. Once all this was accomplished, he would regain his previous formidable power.

Unable to maintain the resources of the entire Liang Country as he did with Green Jade Mountain or command the service of millions of Cultivators, his rate of development and efficiency of accumulation would inevitably decrease significantly.
