Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

Boom!

Under Yun Xiao’s control, the Five Elements Decomposition Power suddenly erupted within the body of the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit, causing its form to freeze immediately.

Just a moment later, the white-haired, elder-like Artifact Heart Strange Spirit exploded with an earth-shattering boom, its ethereal silhouette dispersed like water stirred, transforming into nothingness in an instant.

Yun Xiao’s use of the Five Elements Decomposition Power was unconventional, able to dissolve any form of energy, perhaps representing a unique application of the Five Elements Power.

Everything in the world can be said to be evolved from the Five Elements Power, with special variations, like the Ice Power as the Water Extreme, ultimately remaining a form of Water Attribute.

The Five Elements can condense objects, but under Yun Xiao’s special application, the Five Elements Power to condense objects transformed into a means to decompose vast amounts of energy.

Crash!

As Yun Xiao returned to human form, witnessing the Artifact Spirit’s body being completely decomposed, a series of strange sounds suddenly emerged, and the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit scattered chaotically, like a celestial maiden scattering flowers.

It turned out that those various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, along with Weapon Skills absorbed by the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit to break through to the Low Level Golden Grade Heavenly Spirit, were automatically emitted.

An array of bizarre items seemed to envelop the sky, then fell from the sky, resembling a peculiar rainfall, looking extremely spectacular.

Yun Xiao’s senses ensured that none of those falling items touched him. Yet, he sensed that all of them were treasures reaching Heavenly Rank.

During Yun Xiao’s last visit to the Refining Treasure Hall, he had only seen Heavenly Rank treasures at Treasure Mountain. Now, unexpectedly, he saw so many at once.

He even guessed whether the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit had attracted all the Heavenly Rank treasures from the Refining Treasure Hall, prompting such a Great Rank breakthrough.

But these things weren’t important now. The key was that Yun Xiao had completely decomposed the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit, even erasing its Spiritual Wisdom.

In fact, a Strange Spirit, even if its body was shattered to pieces, could regather as long as its Spirit Crystal remained and possessed its own Spiritual Wisdom.

The Spirit Crystal of the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit was undoubtedly related to the Artifact Heart of the Refining Treasure Hall. Though Yun Xiao hadn’t seen it yet, he clearly understood that after decomposing the Spiritual Wisdom unique to the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit, it posed little threat.

”Did it just get resolved like this?”

Not far away, Yun Changtian didn’t care at all about the various treasures falling from the sky. His eyes widened, seemingly unable to believe the outcome in front of him.

Previously, Yun Changtian was furious due to Yun Xiao’s sudden stupor and wanted to obliterate the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit that injured his son.

Yet, within just a moment, Yun Xiao reversed the situation, decomposing the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit, which had already reached Low Level Golden Grade Heavenly Spirit.

At this moment, Yun Changtian understood that Yun Xiao had meticulously planned, using his unique Water Flow Body to withstand the strike from the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit.

Such a Water Flow Body even caught Yun Changtian, an experienced individual, off guard momentarily, let alone a mere Strange Spirit.

Today’s display by Yun Xiao indeed shocked Yun Changtian, who suddenly realized that, perhaps, he only understood a tenth of Yun Xiao’s capabilities.

Unfortunately, Yun Changtian was just a clone projection without combat ability, only able to passively watch Yun Xiao’s battle with the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit and learn about some of Yun Xiao’s tactics.

This knowledge gave Yun Changtian reason to believe that his son didn’t even use certain techniques, yet managed to deal with a Strange Spirit Expert at Low Level Golden Grade Heavenly Spirit.

In fact, Yun Xiao’s ease this time involved some luck. If others had seen the Decomposition Power earlier, hitting it wouldn’t be that simple.

The Artifact Heart Strange Spirit, not particularly wise, fell into Yun Xiao’s meticulous trap, helpless at that distance.

Regardless, the Artifact Heart Strange Spirit had now disintegrated into nothingness, including its Spiritual Wisdom, marking Yun Xiao’s victory in this challenge.

”Next comes refining the Artifact Heart!”

Yun Xiao ignored Yun Changtian’s shocked face and the scattered Heavenly Rank treasures, walking directly towards the mountain peak, knowing the Artifact Heart of the Refining Treasure Hall was there.

Swish, swish, swish!

As Yun Xiao reached a few feet ahead of the mountain peak, bursts of energy erupted, revealing a transformation: the rocky peak transformed into a miniature palace just a few inches tall.

Glancing at the suspended miniature palace, Yun Xiao recalled the external view of the Refining Treasure Hall, noting this was likely the true Artifact Heart of the hall.

To ensure everything went smoothly, Yun Xiao turned his head to glance at Yun Changtian in the distance. Seeing the latter nod slowly, he was assured in his heart.

With this certainty, Yun Xiao didn’t hesitate at all. He extended his hand to touch the miniature pavilion, and as soon as he touched it, his body shook violently.

Whoosh!

At the same time, the heart of the miniature pavilion, touched by Yun Xiao’s right index finger, vanished instantly. Perhaps only Yun Xiao himself could use the Inner Vision Eye to see the miniature pavilion appear in his own Dantian.

”What on earth is this thing?”

The sudden appearance of a miniature pavilion startled the Golden Snake Worm Xiao Wu, who had been residing inside Yun Xiao, causing him to cry out in surprise.

”Eh? This seems to be a Space Divine Artifact?!”

Before Yun Xiao could respond, relying on Xiao Wu’s knowledge and sensing ability, he immediately sensed the extraordinariness of the miniature pavilion. He slithered around it, and a faint golden light flickered in his snake eyes.

”Ah! Isn’t this...”

Moments later, Xiao Wu’s snake body suddenly froze, first letting out a cry of surprise, then abruptly fell silent, leaving Yun Xiao somewhat perplexed.

”Xiao Wu, do you recognize this thing?”

Curious, Yun Xiao asked from deep within his heart. Now, he knew this guy’s origins were mysterious, and he probably knew much more than Yun Xiao himself.

For instance, when referring to the Blood Moon Jade, Xiao Wu’s name differed from Yun Changtian’s. Yun Xiao faintly felt that even his cheap father from Moon God Palace in the Li Yuan Realm couldn’t match the knowledge of Xiao Wu, who called himself the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon.

”It seems familiar, yet slightly different. Let me think!”

At this moment, Xiao Wu seemed to be in a special state. Such words only piqued Yun Xiao’s curiosity further. This guy speaking half-truths was really making him itch with curiosity.

”Never mind, let’s refine it first. Once refining is successful, everything will naturally become clear!”

Seeing Xiao Wu keeping silent, Yun Xiao knew that if this guy didn’t want to talk, not even eight hundred whips could force him to. So, he simply gave up.

As Yun Xiao focused his thoughts, threads of Meridian Qi surged out from his body’s meridians, eventually converging in his Dantian, wrapping around the miniature pavilion.

Outside, Yun Changtian noticed Yun Xiao had already absorbed the heart of the Refining Treasure Hall into his body and had clearly begun the refining process, a look of relief appearing on his face.

The reason Yun Changtian was waiting here was to wait for his dear son. Now that Yun Xiao passed the test, once the refining succeeded, he could truly own this Space Divine Artifact.

Although refining the heart of a Space Divine Artifact is not without risks, having witnessed certain methods Yun Xiao employed earlier, Yun Changtian’s confidence in him undoubtedly reached a peak.

At this moment, Yun Changtian’s figure suddenly wavered slightly and seemed to become somewhat more ethereal. He knew deep down that all of this was caused by Yun Xiao beginning to refine the artifact heart.

Perhaps once Yun Xiao truly succeeded in refining, Yun Changtian’s clone projection would completely dissipate, marking the end of his second encounter with Yun Xiao.

A month passed quickly. In this month, Yun Xiao’s body remained motionless, but Yun Changtian’s clone projection became increasingly transparent.

Regarding his almost transparent clone projection, Yun Changtian paid it no mind, even carrying a hint of a relieved smile. This indicated that Yun Xiao’s progress in refining the artifact heart hadn’t encountered any major mishaps.

Hoo...

On this day, a strong and unique aura suddenly erupted from Yun Xiao’s body. The surrounding Heaven and Earth Energy seemed to be drawn toward him, rushing in.

”Child, you haven’t disappointed your father in the end!”

Sensing that overwhelming energy aura, Yun Changtian’s now-transparent figure let out a sigh of relief before bursting like a soap bubble, leaving only faint traces of his presence, marking his previous existence.

At this moment, Yun Xiao had no idea that his cheap father had already departed, as he had reached an extremely critical moment.

At this moment, Yun Xiao was not just simply successful in refining the Refining Treasure Hall’s artifact heart. Upon successful refining, he suddenly discovered that a wild force was forcibly injected into his body.

As a result, Yun Xiao’s Meridian Qi Cultivation, which had just broken through to the Floating Life Realm Late Stage a month ago, was about to take another major leap.

Perhaps soon, a brand new Yun Xiao will emerge, reaching a higher level.
