Chapter 386: Chapter 253: Locking the Demon_2
Later, as the two realms converged, the Demon Catastrophe erupted, and Wandao School entered a full-scale war phase. Besides the Celestial White Jade Capital, Yin Mountain Mansion underground, and the three immense Immortal Spirit Mech Armors helmed by Taoist Master Xuanyuan, forces from all sides were called upon, thrown into battlefields on every front, clearing out demonic calamities and, in the end, confining demons in the Death Lands.
This was both a disaster and an opportunity; countless cultivators seized the chance to rise with the tide, making great strides forward.
He was one of them; first exchanging merit points for the Five Elements Gold Binding Pill and, after succeeding in Core Formation, he then went to the front lines, earning numerous supplies through his demon-slaughtering feats, finally compensating for his lack of innate talent, and stepping into the Nascent Soul Realm that billions of cultivators dream of. He also passed the professional title assessment of Wandao School and was conferred the position of “True Monarch”!
All these were brought to him by the Demon Catastrophe.
For fame and profit, the pursuits of life, he wouldn’t claim to stand at the pinnacle, but he had left behind ninety percent of the cultivators in the world.
Indeed, “Persistent people will receive the aid of heaven; the determined will eventually succeed!”
It’s just a pity…
“Time is heartless!”
Reflecting on the past, his tumultuous millennium, and now faced with his white hair, he couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
Nevertheless, being a cultivator of the Taoist Path, he quickly brushed aside this moment of melancholy, stepped out of his Cave Mansion, mounted his Escape Light, and headed straight towards the Blood Sea Death Land.
Two thousand years have passed; the three great Death Lands of the former Spirit Realm still exist to this day, like incurable diseases.
However, compared to the past, there have been many changes.
With the convergence of the two realms, the heavens and earth have expanded. Even though he is a Nascent Soul cultivator, moving at extreme speeds through Escape Light, it still took him considerable time to travel from his Cave Mansion to the Blood Sea Death Land.
While the Blood Sea Death Land carries the name of the sea of blood, the millions of miles of blood sea have long disappeared. Even the dark red blood mud has been tamed and purified by Taoism and divine power, turning into a fertile land that spans thousands of miles, filled as far as the eye can see with fields of Spirit Plants.
“The Ten Thousand Spirit Demonic Transformation Array, established by the Shennong Main School: using demons to nourish spirits, and spirits to transform demons. It not only eradicates the pollution of the Sea of Blood and suppresses the power of the Demon Artifacts but also produces a large amount of resources to sustain cultivation needs. Indeed, there is specialization in every craft, and each shows its own Divine Skills.”
“This array is only of the Fifth Tier, yet it has transformed millions of miles of blood sea into fertile land for Spirit Plants. If one were to enter the Sixth Order, what kind of spectacle would that be?”
Although it wasn’t his first time seeing it, Ye Fan still couldn’t help but marvel at the Ten Thousand Spirit Demonic Transformation Array, composed of thousands of miles of fertile land and countless fields of Spirit Plants.
Within this fertile land and Demon Transformation Array stood a towering structure.
The tower had nine levels, each a thousand zhang high, nearly reaching ten thousand zhang, standing like a pillar connecting heaven and earth, piercing the clouds.
On the pristine white jade-like surface of the tower were chains that bound it, stretching out to the five directions of southeast, northwest, and the center, bridging heaven and earth. Atop the chains shone lights of blue, yellow, red, white, and black, and within them, one could vaguely make out the shapes of the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise, as well as the form of a Kylin—mysterious to the extreme, profound and unfathomable.
This was the Sixth Order Immortal Spirit Great Array—the Five Elements Sealing Heaven Demon-Locking Tower!
Two thousand years ago, when the two realms merged, Wandao School descended upon this world with the White Jade Capital, eradicated the Sea of Blood, slayed the Blood Demon, and in the end, even forced the true form of the ultimate Demon Artifact, the Map of the Blood Sea, to reveal itself, and smote it with the Five Elements Divine Thunder.
However, the Demon Artifact was extremely powerful and not only withstood the Five Elements Divine Thunder but also opened the Sea of Blood Gate, connecting to the Desire Realm and summoning Heavenly Demons.
Although it was promptly suppressed by the two immense Immortal Spirit Mech Armors, the Celestial White Jade Capital, and Taoist Master Xuanyuan, the threat lingered. Consequently, the Taoist Master withdrew to explore the ruins of Mysterious Heaven Sect, spending twelve hundred years to ultimately decipher the intricacies of Mysterious Heaven Array, breaking open the Mysterious Heaven Great Array and obtaining the Demon-Locking Tower left by Mysterious Heaven Ancient Immortal.
The Taoist Master brought back the Demon-Locking Tower, combined Mysterious Heaven Array with the principles of the Five Elements, and reforged this ancient, tarnished, and damaged Immortal Artifact, resulting in the current Five Elements Sealing Heaven Demon-Locking Tower.
The Five Elements Sealing Heaven Demon-Locking Tower, an Immortal Artifact of spirits, is of middle-grade quality and represents the pinnacle of Artifact Skills and Formation of Wandao School.
With the tower, Wandao School sealed the Map of the Blood Sea within, confining its form. Additionally, using the Taoist True Scriptures and the Refining Demon Incantation, they gradually extracted and diffused its original Demonic Qi, hoping to gradually grind and dissolve the artifact through persistent effort.
As of today, significant progress has been made.
Ye Fan rode his Escape Light, plunged downward, and fell directly into the Demon-locking Tower.
A radiant glow of white jade descended, sweeping over the body of the cultivator in an instant.
Though upright and unafraid of crooked shadows, under the illumination of this white jade light, Ye Fan still felt a sense of great dread.
Not surprisingly, because the source of this white jade radiance was one of the three ultimate forces of Wandao School, the Immortal Spirit Mech Armor—Celestial White Jade Capital!
As marvelous as the Five Elements Sealing Heaven Demon-Locking Tower was, it still struggled to contain the Map of the Blood Sea and required the support of the White Jade Capital Immortal Spirit Mech Armor in the background.
Over two thousand years, with the power of the Primordial Spirit World, Wandao School fully unlocked the legacy of Ancient Immortal Gates such as Mysterious Heaven Sect, and advanced the understanding of Elixir Skills, Talisman, Array Formation, and Artifact Skills to the Sixth Order.
With the advancement of all these crafts, the core creation of Wandao School, the Heavenly Crafts Natural Creation, the Spirit-Treasure Mech Armor, was naturally also upgraded.
The White Jade Capital of today not only has the Middle-grade Immortal Artifact, the Five Elements True Spirit Map, as its core but also its Artifacts Level, which has elevated from the initial 150 million to the later 250 million and now to a whole 500 million.
An Immortal Spirit Mech Armor of 500 million Artifacts Level, its might is unimaginable; not to mention a mere Nascent Soul cultivator, even those who have undergone Divinity Transformation and Returned to Void, cannot withstand a single strike of the white jade celestial light or the Five Elements Divine Thunder.
This is the outcome of the Sixth Order accomplishments.
The power of the Spirit Realm, the ancient legacies—none of them were entirely assimilated. According to ancient records and what Wandao School has discovered, some of these Ancient Sects carried on the Seventh Rank techniques—for instance, Mysterious Heaven Sect has the Seventh Rank Mysterious Heaven Array, the Mysterious Heaven Limitless Great Array.
