Chapter 3443: Push the Mountain (No More Today)

Wang Changsheng seized Yan Zheng’s nascent soul and performed a soul search.

The miniature nascent soul let out a shriek and then fell unconscious.

After a moment, Wang Changsheng released the nascent soul, placed it into a red jade box, and sealed it with a blue talisman.

He had acquired the cultivation method for the Nine Flames Spirit Division Grand Technique, as well as the secret art for cultivating spirit fires. If he gathered a large quantity of fire-attribute materials to set up an array and enlisted an eighth-tier array master to construct an eighth-tier array, he had a chance of cultivating an eighth-tier spirit fire.

Yan Zheng had always wanted to cultivate an eighth-tier spirit fire but was hampered by the lack of an eighth-tier array master to help set up the arrays. If he had an eighth-tier spirit fire, it would be a significant advantage in combat, and the efficiency of artifact refining would also greatly increase.

Wang Changsheng activated a spell, and the Mountain Stabilizing Nail flew out from the ground, disappearing into his sleeve.

This high-grade Heavenly Connecting Spirit Treasure was excellent, a perfect tool for trapping enemies.

He found a red storage bracelet on Yan Zheng’s corpse. With a gentle flick of his wrist, a crimson glow swept across, revealing a pile of items on the ground.

Upon careful inspection, he found forty spirit herbs over ten thousand years old. The most valuable were three lotus seeds from the Nine Nether Moon Lotus, and the oldest were two six-hundred-thousand-year-old Ice Soul Grass plants. Additionally, there were three corpses of eighth-tier demonic beasts, over two thousand high-grade spirit stones, and four offensive high-grade Heavenly Connecting Spirit Treasures.

The Blazefire Tribe’s treasury had been raided once by Chen Yueying, so Yan Zheng didn't have many high-grade spirit stones on him.

Wang Changsheng collected Yan Zheng’s corpse, a great tonic for Wang Tun Tian. He then flew to the glazed wood, his eyes burning with excitement.

"Refining several sets of defensive high-grade Heavenly Connecting Spirit Treasures wouldn't be an issue. As long as our clansmen don't attract the Nine Heavens Divine Lightning, the eighth and ninth thunder tribulations won't be a problem; it's just the inner demons that are concerning."

Wang Ruyan said excitedly.

With this glazed wood, which was over one hundred thousand years old, the cultivators in the clan attempting to break through to the Mahayana stage would find the eighth and ninth thunder tribulations much easier. The true challenge would be the inner demons. Additionally, surviving the Great Heavenly Tribulation would also be significantly less difficult.

This glazed wood greatly enhanced the Wang family's foundation. It was also a very valuable material if traded with Mahayana cultivators.

Wang Changsheng released Wang Shen, took out array flags and plates, and conjured the Ten Thousand Spirit Bottle to assist Wang Shen in transplanting the glazed wood.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan finding this place was not by chance. The Monster Seeking Mirror had detected the presence of an eighth-tier demonic beast, leading them here where they discovered Yan Zheng and promptly eliminated him.

"Husband, after we leave this dojo, how about we head straight to the Myriad Flames Mountain Range and dismantle the Blazefire Tribe's stronghold?"

Wang Ruyan said excitedly.

Without a Mahayana cultivator, the Blazefire Tribe was no match for them. This was the optimal time.

"Let's wait until we leave the dojo. Besides the Blazefire Tribe and the Yaksha Tribe, Jin Lei, the Mahayana cultivator of the Golden Centipede Tribe from Guangyun Realm, has also entered the dojo. Yan Zheng was no match for him in their spar. This person cultivates earth-attribute techniques. Sang Yu and Luo Xiao have also entered."

Wang Changsheng's expression was solemn. Besides Yan Zheng, there were also Luo Xiao, Sang Yu, and Jin Lei, three Mahayana cultivators from different tribes.

Luo Xiao, naturally, was stronger than Yan Zheng, and it wouldn't be easy for Wang Changsheng to kill him, not to mention Sang Yu. Fortunately, they were acting separately. The dojo was vast, and it was uncertain if they would encounter other Mahayana cultivators. Their luck in meeting Yan Zheng this time was quite good.

"The dojo is so vast, we probably won't run into them. With the Monster Seeking Mirror and Tun Tian, even if we do, we can detect them in advance. They'd be lucky if they don't run into us."

Wang Ruyan said with a smile.

The Monster Seeking Mirror had performed a great service in helping them encounter Yan Zheng this time.

Wang Changsheng nodded, returned Wang Shen to his spirit beast bracelet, and released Wang Tun Tian.

Wang Tun Tian's eyes brightened as he surveyed his surroundings.

"There's a seventh-tier Kan-Li Beast forty thousand li to the northeast."

Wang Tun Tian pointed northeast. If it were an eighth-tier Kan-Li Beast, the Monster Seeking Mirror would have alerted them already.

"Kan-Li Beast! Let's go, kill it, and extract the Kan Yuan Jade!"

Wang Changsheng said in a deep voice. With the Kan Yuan Jade and the Qiankun Glazed Stone, they could refine another Boundary-Breaking Disk.

Major powers like the Ye family, Stone Cocoon Tribe, and Sky Moon Tribe possessed more than one boundary-breaking artifact. The Blazefire Tribe also had a boundary-breaking artifact in the past, but it was destroyed.

The Nine Yuan Merchant Alliance was the most extravagant, possessing inter-realm treasure ships that could transport a group of cultivators across realms, which was safer and more efficient than a Boundary-Breaking Disk.

They headed northeast, determined to eliminate the Kan-Li Beast.

In addition to spirit herbs and wood, the demonic beast resources here were also abundant. Many rare demonic beasts that were hard to find outside were present here.

Before long, they stopped at the foot of a ten-thousand-zhang-tall mountain. The mountain was barren, and there was a massive cave halfway up its side.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan released Wang Chan and Wang Chuan, sending them to eliminate the Kan-Li Beast. Their attacks specifically targeted the soul, ensuring that the Kan Yuan Jade would not be damaged.

Wang Chan and Wang Chuan transformed into two streaks of golden light and flew into the cave halfway up the mountain.

Loud rumbling sounds emanated from inside the cave, causing the tall peak to shake slightly. In less than fifteen minutes, Wang Chan flew out, holding a piece of Kan Yuan Jade in his hand.

"Master, there's a mine of Azure Essence Divine Jade. The reserves are unknown."

Wang Chan reported.

Wang Changsheng collected the Kan Yuan Jade and flew into the cave.

Soon after, Wang Changsheng and Wang Chuan flew out.

Wang Changsheng performed a spell, and a series of crackling sounds echoed from his body as his physique rapidly expanded. He then punched the ground with his right fist.

With a thunderous roar, the ground collapsed, creating a long, thick crack.

Wang Changsheng continuously struck the ground with his fists, and the cracks on the ground grew larger. Upon closer inspection, one could see that the cracks encircled the entire mountain.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a massive circular fissure appeared at the foot of the mountain. The fissure, more than ten zhang wide and a hundred zhang deep, encircled the peak.

Wang Changsheng leaped into the fissure, moved his fists, and struck the rock wall.

With loud rumbling, the entire peak vibrated violently.

After about twenty minutes, the peak began to tilt towards the southeast.

With a final roar, the peak violently shook and then toppled, raising a cloud of dust.

Wang Changsheng didn't have much time to mine a seventh-tier ore vein, so he directly used brute force to topple the entire peak.

He conjured the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, infused it with a spell, and the banner glowed brightly. It circled the fallen mountain, then spewed a black light that enveloped the mountain, pulling it into the banner.

The Ten Thousand Soul Banner had ample space; collecting a ten-thousand-zhang-tall peak was not an issue.

Upon returning to the family, he would place the peak in a secret realm for the clansmen to slowly mine.

He estimated it to be a medium-sized Azure Essence Divine Jade mine, which could be exploited for many years. Incorporating Azure Essence Divine Jade into the clansmen's natal artifacts could enhance their power.

This was only a seventh-tier mine; an eighth-tier mine would not be so easy to extract.

"Master's divine might!"

Wang Tun Tian flattered him, smiling foolishly.

Wang Changsheng smiled, took out a yellow ginseng, and threw it to Wang Tun Tian.

Wang Tun Tian put it in his mouth, chewed a few times, and swallowed it.

"Let's go! We continue our journey. Before the dojo closes, we should gather as many cultivation resources as possible. We might not be able to catch the next opening of the dojo."

Wang Changsheng said in a deep voice. They departed from the area, disappearing into the vast mountains.
