"Burp..."
As everyone stared dumbfounded at the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon, a sound like a satisfied burp erged from its mouth, appearing sowhat out of place in such a serious situation.
A breath of black mist was expelled from the dragon's mouth and nose, as if it were the final image of the Ninth-Order Foggy Strange Spirit, but it quickly dissipated into the sky and ceased to exist.
At this mont, however, no one paid attention to the anomaly of the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon. All their gazes shifted to the silhouette in coarse clothing, with a touch of expectation in their eyes.
Because the Ninth Rank low-level Foggy Strange Spirit was now dead, based on the situation of the previous half-step Ninth Rank Strange Spirit, the deceased Ninth Rank Strange Spirit would guide Yun Xiao to find the treasure.
This was the peak of Treasure Mountain, and the location of the Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit; hence everyone speculated that the treasure guarded by this Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit might have reached the Heavenly Rank level.
Especially Bai Wushuang, whose eyes seed almost ready to tear flesh from Yun Xiao's body. However, the ti was not yet right to make a move. Once Yun Xiao truly obtained the suspected Heavenly Rank treasure, greed might overpower reason.
Though Yun Xiao had displayed great power by summoning the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon, which completely devoured the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit, faced with a Heavenly Rank treasure, rationality could easily be buried.
Moreover, Bai Wushuang had a keen mind, sensing Yun Xiao's sowhat weakened aura. He knew that this young man likely couldn't summon the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon a second ti.
Furthermore, the effectiveness of such potent ridian Techniques is undoubtedly best the first ti they are used. If soone is prepared, dealing with it might not be so difficult.
Sotis greed makes people take risks. For Bai Wushuang at this mont, the difference is whether those treasures are worth the danger. If they exceed this value, anything is possible.
Whoosh!
As Yun Xiao's thoughts commanded, the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon suddenly flew back around him, transforming into several streams of energy, returning to his body, reducing his weakness slightly.
At this ti, the onlookers focused their gaze on Yun Xiao's right hand, where a mass of seemingly constantly changing mist, about the size of an adult's fist, appeared extrely mysterious.
"Is that... the Spirit Crystal of the Foggy Strange Spirit?"
Ye Ku and Bai Wushuang, being experienced, recognized at a glance that despite the mist looking very different from ordinary Strange Spirit Crystals, making it hardly suitable to be called a Spirit Crystal, it was indeed the lifelong essence of the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit.
A Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit already equated to a human cultivator at the Early Stage of Earth Bending Realm. Bai Wushuang and Ye Ku knew that if they obtained this Strange Spirit Crystal and refined it, they might at least reach the level of half-step Earth Realm.
The Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit Crystal is rare and hard to co by. At least, geniuses like Bai Wushuang and Ye Ku at the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm wouldn't dare confront a Ninth Rank Strange Spirit; that would be suicidal.
"Hmm?"
While the outsiders reacted thusly, as Yun Xiao held the misty Spirit Crystal, an intangible aura seeped into his palm, rushed into his brain, greatly startling him.
Initially, Yun Xiao thought the Foggy Strange Spirit had another trick, faking death during the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon's devouring to lull him into complacency, launching a hidden attack at this mont.
Or perhaps the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit was in its death throes, knowing it couldn't live again and hoped to drag Yun Xiao down with it. In sensing those intangible and obscure auras, Yun Xiao quickly mobilized his Power of Soul to block them from entering his mind.
Yet to Yun Xiao's shock, no matter how he mobilized his Power of Soul, he couldn't stop the intangible auras in the slightest or even slow their speed.
"Ah!"
The next mont, Yun Xiao felt sothing fly into his mind, followed by an indescribable soul pain, causing him to clutch his head and scream in agony.
Witnessing this, the audience found it bewildering; of course, their moods varied. Liu Hanyi and Mo Qing showed worry on their faces, whereas Heavenly Hospital's genius Bai Wushuang looked gleefully amused.
From Bai Wushuang's perspective, it seed Yun Xiao attempted to instantly devour and refine the Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit Crystal and suffered backlash. After all, the youth's true cultivation was only at the Origin Seeking Realm Middle Stage.
Generally, human cultivators wouldn't dare consu Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures of a rank apart without refining them into special elixirs to neutralize their violent nature.
A Vein Demon's Demon Core contains energy more violent than sa-level Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, whereas a Strange Spirit's Spirit Crystal surpasses a Vein Demon Demon Pill of the sa rank even further.
Even though Yun Xiao had previously demonstrated such a myriad of strange and formidable thods, Bai Wushuang still did not believe that this young man at the Origin Seeking Realm Middle Stage could directly succeed in refining the Ninth Rank low-level Demon Core.
Moreover, to forcibly refine it at such a ti is extrely unwise; in the end, it would only benefit others. Thus, Bai Wushuang thought Yun Xiao was wise for a lifeti but foolish for a mont, trapping himself in his own cocoon.
"What... what is this thing?"
Under the peculiar thoughts of Bai Wushuang and the other onlookers, Yun Xiao finally managed to endure the intense pain surging through his mind. When his Power of Soul cleared, he suddenly found a peculiar piece of thin paper in his mind.
This piece of thin paper looked about the sa size as the letter paper used outside, but when Yun Xiao first cast his Inner Vision Eye upon it, he found nothing written on it.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
However, as Yun Xiao's Power of Soul stared at the thin paper, it underwent a subtle change, with lines of small characters suddenly erging from the surface, appearing extrely mysterious.
"Dragon Taming Nine Swords!"
The first thing that caught Yun Xiao's gaze were four slightly larger black characters, which struck him deeply, thinking he might have stumbled upon a great fortune.
From these four characters, Yun Xiao guessed this seed to be a Sword ridian Technique tailored for the Dragon Taming Sword, which was indeed a tily gift for him.
Since Yun Xiao acquired the Dragon Taming Sword, the moves he knew were nothing more than a few kinds: hacking, stabbing, and slicing. Although this Ancient Divine Weapon was incredibly sharp, it was exceedingly difficult to land a successful hit if the enemy was prepared.
The Long Xiao Battle God of the past had exposure to several Sword ridian Techniques, yet Yun Xiao always felt those techniques sowhat unbefitting of the Dragon Taming Sword's stature.
Moreover, the ranks of those Sword ridian Techniques were far too advanced, so he had never found a suitable technique for wielding the Dragon Taming Sword.
But now, from these four characters, Yun Xiao could be sure it was due to the Dragon Taming Sword or sothing else responding when he killed that Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit, resulting in this paper inscribed with "Dragon Taming Nine Swords" entering his mind.
"Nine Sword First Style: Flying Hidden, At the Seeking Origin Realm cultivation can be learned!"
After the brief shock in his heart, Yun Xiao lowered his gaze, and upon seeing these small characters, he was extrely surprised, secretly feeling that despite the life-threatening nature of coming to Treasure Mountain, it was truly worth the risk.
This Dragon Taming Nine Swords, tailored for the Dragon Taming Sword, could no longer be solely appraised at Earth Rank or Heavenly Rank; he believed it was a kind of growth technique.
Moreover, if the First Style could be cultivated at the Seeking Origin Realm level, perhaps with the increase in strength, there would be a Second Style, Third Style, or even an Eighth Style, Ninth Style.
However, Yun Xiao knew it was not the right ti to research this Dragon Taming Nine Swords now; although the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit had been killed, Bai Wushuang was still lurking nearby with malicious intent. Who knew if this hypocritical fellow wouldn't strike at a critical mont?
"Heh, heh, you two, thanks for the concession!"
Regaining his composure, Yun Xiao glanced over at Bai Wushuang and Ye Ku with a grin, his words causing varied expressions on the gentlen's faces.
Ye Ku seed alright, but Bai Wushuang was sowhat discontented. His eyes flickered as he spoke in a solemn tone, "Yun Xiao, this Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit was slain by our joint efforts. It's inappropriate for you to claim the Spirit Crystal all for yourself, isn't it?"
Upon hearing Bai Wushuang's words, even Ye Ku's face reddened a bit, secretly thinking about when Bai Wushuang's face had beco so thick, uttering such big words without fearing self-deprecation.
Previously, although the trio joined forces, they were utterly suppressed by the Ninth Rank low-level Fog Spirit, leaving Bai Wushuang and Ye Ku unable to retaliate, rely able to protect themselves.
If it had not been for Yun Xiao's miraculous ridian Technique of the Ice and Fire Giant Dragon and certain peculiar and concealed thods to kill the Ninth Rank low-level Strange Spirit on the spot, none could have survived to leave Treasure Mountain.
"If Brother Wushuang is dissatisfied, just co and seize it; I, Yun Xiao, will receive it!"
For the top genius of the Heavenly Hospital, Yun Xiao naturally held no regard, and as he spoke, his eyes harbored a trace of killing intent, knowing that death was not prohibited on Treasure Mountain.
"Brother Ye Ku, allow the Ninth Rank low-level Spirit Crystal, and as for the other treasures on Treasure Mountain, it will depend on your luck!"
Yun Xiao's gaze suddenly shifted to Ye Ku, and upon his words, Bai Wushuang who had been undecided about attempting to seize the Strange Spirit Crystal, imdiately dismissed this thought and ford a different plan.
