Chapter 810: Chapter 809 [The Key Lies in the Iron Halberd]

[PS: The first update for today. Please subscribe!!!]

Ye Tianchen, the blade-wielding man, the man in silver armor, the Wuji Taoist, all four of them sat cross-legged in front of the half Qing stone stele. At this time, the whole Qing stone stele towering into the sky was already left with only half, and at the top, the iron halberd was still embedded, emanating a powerful divine power that no one could approach recklessly.

The golden child elder was battling with blood desolation at this moment. Blood desolation had already lost the iron halberd, causing a significant decrease in battle power, and having been injured by Ye Tianchen and the others, it became even less formidable than before. The golden child elder capitalized on this, wanting to pound the falling enemy, hoping to devour blood desolation’s divine sense like the bald monk’s, to make breakthroughs in his infant heavenly skill, making progress after decades of stagnation.

Earlier, Ye Tianchen had unleashed a full-force Vajra Divine Fist onto the massive Qing stone stele. It didn’t even break the half stone stele, nor did it leave a single crack, shocking everyone present, including Ye Tianchen himself. This Qing stone stele, what divine artifact could it be, that even the Vajra Divine Fist, known for destroying all, could not shatter? After pondering for a moment, Ye Tianchen then sat cross-legged in front of the half Qing stone stele, seemingly entering a meditative state.

Following him, the blade-wielding man, the man in silver armor, and the no-less-sinister Wuji Taoist also sat cross-legged, all four Mid Martial Venerate realm experts sitting in front of a half Qing stone stele, which could be mistaken for performing some divine arts.

Boom!

Gradually, from Ye Tianchen’s brow emerged a powerful aura, slowly condensing into a golden hand, not very fast-paced but steadily reaching for the iron halberd on the half Qing stone stele.

Swish!

The blade-wielding man acted as well, his right hand transformed into an imprint, and from his dantian, a transparent cord emerged, similarly winding towards the iron halberd on the half stele.

Splatter!

The man in silver armor was more direct and vigorous, not forming a martial arts true power hand to grasp the halberd but punching towards the iron halberd.

Pop!

With a light sound, the Wuji Taoist, who was the last to sit cross-legged, was not to be left out. With a shake of her horsetail whisk, it continuously extended under her martial arts true power, sweeping towards the iron halberd on the Qing stone stele.

At the same time, all four individuals, led by Ye Tianchen, sitting cross-legged in front of the half Qing stone stele, acted simultaneously towards the iron halberd, all seemingly intent on securing it. Only the golden child elder fighting blood desolation cursed harshly, seeing the other four wanting to capture the halberd, ”Once I devour this blood desolation’s divine sense, I shall subdue the halberd!”

”Humph, this iron halberd is not something you can control. However, you’re clever enough to know that to shatter the remaining half of the Qing stone stele, subduing the halberd is imperative,” blood desolation retorted coldly.

Actually, when Ye Tianchen had punched the half Qing stone stele earlier, he had already found it very strange. Before that, he had already probed with a strong divine sense, meticulously examining every part of the stone inside and out, leading to no extraordinary findings. It was just like an ordinary Qing stone stele, so why couldn’t a Vajra Divine Fist, capable of crushing a mountain peak, break the massive Qing stone stele?

Eventually, Ye Tianchen fixed his gaze on the iron halberd on the half Qing stone stele. This iron halberd, in the hands of blood desolation, allowed him to suppress Ye Tianchen and the six Mid Martial Venerate experts, a near sweep. Perhaps blood desolation hadn’t fully unleashed the halberd’s might; otherwise, Ye Tianchen and the six might have already fallen under this halberd.

The Qing stone stele was very ordinary, with the only peculiar aspect being the rusty iron halberd inserted atop it. The powerful divine power emanated gave an impression of deterring proximity. Since the Qing stone stele had no unique features, there was only one reason for its invulnerability — the iron halberd atop it. The divine power gushing forth protected the half Qing stone stele, making it indestructible.

”Damn it, hurry up and die, delaying my subjugation of the halberd. If they get away with it, I’ll make you wish for death!” The golden child elder, in a panic, wielded his golden mace fiercely attacking blood desolation.

Blood desolation was already weakening, especially without the iron halberd to command, and severely injured. He was no match for the golden child elder, only able to keep dodging, hoping to find a way to survive.

Ye Tianchen, Wuji Taoist, the blade-wielding man, and the man in silver armor almost simultaneously acted, launching divine arts towards the iron halberd, intending to capture it. They weren’t merely using force to subdue the halberd. Had it been as easy as grabbing the halberd, they wouldn’t need to sit cross-legged, focus their divine mind, painstakingly combining martial arts true power and their divine thoughts, wrapping them around the halberd.

This iron halberd possesses unfathomable mystical power, standing like a Fangtian Halberd atop a half-buried green stone stele, radiating a formidable divine might, with a presence that seemingly stands unyielding between heaven and earth, extremely powerful. Approaching recklessly might provoke an autonomous attack from the halberd—a true disaster. And in terms of taming a treasure, it’s not merely about seizing it with martial strength to control it; the key lies in integrating one’s Martial Arts True Power and Divine Thought into the treasure. Only then can the treasure’s strongest power be unleashed, marking its true submission and becoming one’s own artifact.

A powerful artifact generally possesses spirituality and is not easily subdued. Some Divine Artifacts even autonomously choose their owners. If one seizes them forcefully without recognition, the artifact may unleash lethal moves. The person trying to seize it not only fails to obtain the treasure but might face the fate of complete obliteration.

For ordinary artifacts, as soon as a martial artist discovers them, they quickly claim them. Afterwards, they temper them little by little, integrating their Martial Arts True Power and Divine Thought into the artifact, thus making it their own treasure. If one encounters a powerful artifact, it’s the opposite; rushing in recklessly to grab it might result in being slain, leaving only a Blood Mist behind.

This large halberd is just like that. Even if not controlled by Blood Mist, it autonomously radiates waves of strong divine power. Even an ordinary green stone stele becomes indestructible under the halberd’s divine might; such is its formidable strength. Even a Martial Saint Realm expert would likely not dare to directly grasp the halberd.

As for Blood Mist, it’s unknown how many years it has existed within the green stone stele, influenced by the halberd’s divine power. It seems to share some intrinsic connection with the halberd, allowing brief commandeering.

Boom!

With a dull sound, Ye Tianchen combined his Martial Arts True Power and Divine Thought, forming a golden palm that reached above the halberd, swiftly grabbing towards it. The halberd trembled, emanating a wave of divine power, blocking Ye Tianchen’s golden palm.

At this moment, the bald man wielding a knife, the silver-armored man’s silver fist light, Wuji Taoist’s strong horsetail whisk treasure—all swept towards the halberd, each wanting to tame it through their own means. Everyone could see that this halberd was quite extraordinary; despite its rusty appearance, its power was immense, possessing an unmatched presence. It was certainly a supreme Martial Saint Treasure. Obtaining it would greatly enhance one’s combat strength; who could resist such temptation?

Buzz!

Confronted by Ye Tianchen, Wuji Taoist, the bald man wielding a knife, the silver-armored man, four Mid Martial Venerate stage experts took action. The halberd emitted its strongest divine power, blocking the divine arts extended by the four, holding them off without repelling them.

”What’s going on?” Wuji Taoist asked anxiously.

”No idea, this halberd is just too powerful and mysterious!” said the silver-armored man, his face serious.

”Anyway, we must subdue it, otherwise, we cannot break through this green stone stele. Don’t even mention obtaining treasures or legacies within the tomb, finding the way out would be impossible!” The bald man wielding a knife said gravely.

”The halberd has sensed our Divine Thought. It’s merely blocking our divine arts, not repelling them, indicating it’s preparing to choose an owner!” Ye Tianchen sensed something and spoke.

”Choosing an owner, wonderful, surely it’s me! This halberd is definitely mine. None of you should compete with me.” Wuji Taoist fiercely glared at Ye Tianchen and the other two.

”It might not be you, we’ll have to see each other’s skills.” The bald man wielding a knife didn’t retreat from the powerful halberd, increasing the urging of his Martial Arts True Power, attempting to forcibly bind the halberd first.

”The halberd will choose its master autonomously. Whether one can obtain it depends on their fate and fortune!” The silver-armored man stared at the halberd in a daze and said.

Commotion!

The Vajra Elder struck Blood Mist’s chest with a punch, creating a bloody cavity. Seeing the halberd seemingly about to recognize an owner, he grew anxious. This old monster wanted to pocket everything for himself without missing any chance, greedily. Immediately, he unleashed a strong True Power mixed with his Divine Thought towards the halberd.

Who knew, when the Vajra Elder wanted to try his luck, the halberd emitted a subtle force, cutting off his True Power, completely denying the old man’s participation in the owner selection. This time, the Vajra Elder found no gain but got severely injured by the halberd’s divine power. Blood Mist seized the opportunity to charge forward, this being its only chance to retaliate and kill the Vajra Elder...(To be continued.
