Terran Guardian - Chapter 3585

Chapter 3563 Sage’s Essence

. The Xuan Turtle perished.

The remaining demonic beasts were not a concern.

In any case, there were only a few demonic beasts that could enter the semi-saint realm.

Most of these demonic beasts were eyeing other powerful immortal domains, and those that could actually reach the middle-level immortal domains were extremely rare.

With the strength of the Heavenly Forging Palace, as long as it wasn’t a semi-saint level being who made the move, there shouldn’t be any major problems.

Therefore,

after killing the Xuan Turtle, Duan Changsheng didn’t linger and directly tore through the void to leave, leaving the Heavenly Forging Palace to handle the remaining troubles.   Bai Lianchuan naturally had no objection to this.

Moreover   , the Daoist power left behind by the battle between the two immortals in the Ninth Heaven was terrifying. Many demonic beasts had just stepped into the Ninth Heaven when they triggered other Daoist forces and were instantly killed on the spot.   In this way,   the number of demonic beasts that could truly enter the Heavenly Forging Palace was extremely small.   The pressure on the Heavenly Forging Palace side had been greatly reduced.   However.   Although the battle for immortality ended with the fall of the Xuan Turtle, many cultivators in the Divine Heaven Domain were still reeling.   The Xuan Turtle had been slain!   After this battle, the name of Duan Changsheng was destined to shake the entire Immortal Domain.   Everyone knew that the Xuan Tian Dao Sect had gained a half-saint realm elder.   Moreover,   this elder’s strength was terrifying, enough to slay a half-saint level Xuan Turtle beast.   ”This is a fragment of the Xuan Turtle’s carapace!”   A Celestial Emperor stared at a fragment of carapace filled with a strange aura, his eyes burning with fervor.   The Xuan Turtle’s carapace!   This was the hardest part of the Xuan Turtle’s body, a supreme divine material for forging treasures.   Not to mention that the fallen Xuan Turtle had already reached the half-saint realm.   Therefore,   the grade of this carapace was even higher.   As for the strange aura remaining on the fragment, this Celestial Emperor didn’t care much.   After all, the Xuan Turtle had already fallen, and what he saw wasn’t the Xuan Turtle’s corpse, but merely a fragment of its shattered carapace.   Even if the fragments of this carapace contained residual power of evil, the degree of contamination was limited.   This kind of strange, corrupting power posed a great threat to ancient immortals; a slight misstep could lead to their descent into evil beasts.   But for an Immortal Emperor, such corruption was nothing.   With careful attention, it could be gradually removed,   thus   obtaining a top-tier divine material.   Just as the Immortal Emperor reached out to take the Xuan Turtle Carapace, a cold light suddenly flashed, causing his expression to change. Almost instantly, he summoned his supreme treasure to block.   ”Boom—”   The two forces collided, causing the Immortal Emperor’s body to tremble, his face dark and grim.   At the same time, another Immortal   Emperor appeared from the shadows, stepping through the air. His gaze fell upon the Xuan Turtle Carapace, his greed undisguised.   The next instant   , without a word, the two engaged in direct combat.   Even if a half-saint level Xuan Turtle Carapace couldn’t be refined into a supreme treasure, it was still an unparalleled defensive artifact.   For an Immortal Emperor,   this opportunity could even grant them an extra life. Faced with such a chance, who would willingly relinquish it?   Therefore, further words are useless; ultimately, the outcome will be decided through combat.   …   Currently, cultivators from all sides of the Divine Heaven Domain are vying for the fragments of the Xuan Turtle’s carapace.   The power of Duan Changsheng’s strike shattered a portion of the Xuan Turtle’s carapace, scattering its fragments throughout the Divine Heaven Domain.   These fragments are an immense temptation for any Immortal Emperor, making conflict inevitable.   Even within the Heavenly Forging Palace, Bai Lianchuan has obtained a fragment of the Xuan Turtle’s carapace, and it is the largest one.   ”Xuan Turtle Carapace!”   ”This divine material belongs to the half-saint level. Perhaps in the future, it can serve as a foundation for forging another Innate Emperor Weapon.   Even at its worst, it can still be a half-step Innate Emperor Weapon!”   This fragment of the Xuan Turtle’s carapace was seized by Bai Lianchuan the instant the Xuan Turtle’s carapace shattered after Duan Changsheng’s attack.   As an eighth-tier Grandmaster, he naturally understood the significance of the Xuan Turtle’s carapace.   Especially a Xuan Turtle carapace that had reached the semi-saint realm, making it even more extraordinary.   Unfortunately,   the Xuan Turtle carapace before him was merely a fragment of a complete one.   If he could obtain the complete carapace, even without refining it, it could be considered a defensive treasure of the innate emperor weapon level.   After all, this was the hardest part of the Xuan Turtle’s body, and Xuan Turtle have always been known for their defense.   The defensive capabilities of such a carapace were unimaginable.   However—   this also indirectly demonstrated Duan Changsheng’s terrifying power.   Even the Xuan Turtle carapace couldn’t withstand his attack and was ultimately shattered by him.   Suppressing his distracting thoughts, Bai Lianchuan headed towards the Immortal Fire Palace.   The moment he stepped into this immortal palace, a scorching aura rushed towards him; the terrifying temperature of the tenth-tier immortal fire made Bai Lianchuan’s expression serious with each direct experience.   This level of immortal fire could only be refined by those below the semi-saint level.   Although Bai Lianchuan was an eighth-tier Grandmaster, his cultivation remained at the Immortal Emperor realm, unable to attain immortality.   Therefore,   he naturally lacked the ability to refine the immortal fire before him.   However—   Bai Lianchuan had not come here to refine the immortal fire.   He simply threw the fragments of the Xuan Turtle’s shell directly into the ancient cauldron formed from chaotic ore, allowing it to be tempered by the immortal fire.   Under the terrifyingly scorching heat, the Xuan Turtle’s shell sizzled, and the malevolent aura contained within gradually dissipated.   And this   was Bai Lianchuan’s purpose for this trip:   to refine the malevolent aura with the power of tenth-tier immortal fire.   Although he could refine the malevolent aura himself, it would be quite cumbersome and potentially lead to some incomplete refinement.   In comparison…

Throwing the fragment of the Xuan Turtle’s shell directly into the ancient cauldron, allowing it to be tempered by the tenth-tier immortal fire, undoubtedly saved a lot of time.

After all, even the strongest residual evil power in a mere semi-saint beast is limited.

Let alone a fragment, even a living Xuan Turtle might not be able to withstand the tempering of immortal fire.

After all—

the tenth-tier immortal fire before him was not as simple as an ordinary tenth-tier immortal fire.

It was only because the strongmen of the Heavenly Forging Palace throughout the ages had tempered the tenth-tier immortal fire little by little that the cultivators of the Heavenly Forging Palace were naturally close to this kind of immortal fire, so that they could have the hope of directly starting to refine this kind of immortal fire after breaking through to the semi-saint realm.

Otherwise,

for other cultivators, even if they stepped into the semi-saint realm, it would not be easy to refine this kind of immortal fire.

After throwing the fragment of the Xuan Turtle’s shell into the ancient cauldron, Bai Lianchuan turned and left.

Now that the Heavenly Forging Palace had just quelled the evil disaster, there were many things waiting for him to deal with, and as the head of the Heavenly Forging Palace, he naturally had to step forward.

In addition…

Regarding this calamity, Bai Lianchuan will also need to make a trip to the Xuan Tian Dao Sect.

Although the Xuan Tian Dao Sect is already aware of this matter, regardless, the incident has already occurred, and Tianzhu Mansion must ultimately report it.

…

Xuan Tian Dao Sect.

Inside Yangxin Residence.

Duan Changsheng’s figure appeared here.

“Sect Master!”

“You did well this time. The strength of that Xuan Turtle Demon Beast is not weaker than many peak First Tribulation Half-Saints, but it is still no match for you.

In terms of true strength, I think it is enough to contend with Second Tribulation Half-Saints!”

Shen Changqing’s eyes were full of praise as he looked at Duan Changsheng.

A newly promoted First Tribulation Half-Saint, yet his strength can contend with Second Tribulation Half-Saints.

It must be said that

the foundation of such a Changsheng Demon God is indeed extraordinary.

After all, there are nine tribulations in Half-Saint, and the difference between each tribulation is considerable.

To fight beyond one’s level at this level, one must accumulate a sufficiently strong foundation, or possess a top-tier bloodline or even an immortal body.

Duan Changsheng’s ability to easily slay the Xuan Turtle Beast with his newly advanced Half-Saint cultivation level is enough to demonstrate just how astonishing the Longevity Demon God bloodline flowing through his veins truly is.

A top-tier innate bloodline!

At this moment,

Shen Changqing has witnessed it firsthand.   Although

one hundred Half-Saint essences are a considerable amount, Duan Changsheng’s current strength is still satisfactory.

Strictly speaking, nurturing an Longevity Demon God this time was a worthwhile investment.   Normally, one point of Half-Saint essence can nurture one innate Demon God.   One hundred Half-Saint essences equal a full one hundred innate Demon Gods.   Each innate Demon God possesses an innate bloodline; while they may not reach the pinnacle of Longevity, reaching the peak of the Immortal Emperor realm is absolutely no problem.   Moreover, compared to other cultivators, innate Demon Gods with innate bloodlines have a significantly higher chance of breaking through to Half-Saint and reaching Longevity.   If the Immortal Demon God’s performance were lackluster, Shen Changqing would have to consider whether to continue using the Seven Profound Divine Tower to nurture it, or to nurture a large number of Innate Demon Gods.   Fortunately, Duan Changsheng   ’s performance this time was outstanding.   This was enough to prove that the so-called Immortal Demon God was worth one hundred half-saint essences.   Again   , for Shen Changqing, time was of utmost importance.   Ordinary Innate Demon Gods also needed time to grow.   For such a demon god to reach the pinnacle of immortality, the time required was measured in billions of years. As long as the Immortal Demon God’s strength was within the estimated range, Shen Changqing considered the latter more important than the former.   Moreover,   the Immortal Demon God possessed a top-tier Innate bloodline and had the potential to reach even greater heights in the future.   No matter how you looked at it, one Immortal Demon God was worth a hundred Innate Demon Gods.   As their cultivation improved, the gap between the two would only widen.   ”The Immortal Demon God is already like this; I wonder what kind of foundation the next level of Demon God will possess—”   Shen Changqing mused to himself.   The Immortal Demon God wasn’t the limit of the Seven Profound Divine Tower. If one could gather the essence of a hundred Saints, one could nurture a higher-level Demon God.   But for Shen Changqing, a hundred Saints’ essence was a distant dream.   Over the years, he had only barely managed to gather enough essence to nurture one Immortal Demon God.   Without the strength of a Saint, attempting to collect the essence of a hundred Saints was undoubtedly a pipe dream.   Such a quantity of Saints’ essence was enough to nurture a hundred Immortal Demon Gods.   Therefore,   these matters could only be left for later.   Shen Changqing only thought about it briefly before temporarily putting the matter aside.
