Chapter 4642: Fragments of the Dao Artifact

Wang Changsheng nodded, his gaze falling upon a pair of gauntlets that shimmered with an incessant blue light.

"Immortal-Slaying Gauntlets, top-grade immortal artifacts!"

He looked delighted; these were a complete set of top-grade immortal artifacts, and Primordial Spirit Treasures had not yet been forged into them. He happened to have a Primordial Spirit Treasure on hand, which he could fuse into the Immortal-Slaying Gauntlets to enhance their power.

There were over thirty top-grade immortal essence stones, hundreds of core crystals—mostly from Grand Unity Golden Immortal-stage chaotic beasts, with two from Grand Luo Golden Immortal-stage chaotic beasts. Also found were a secret method for opening the Nine Apertures and the "Starfall Scripture." The "Starfall Scripture" had a total of twelve layers: True Immortals could cultivate the first three layers, and Grand Luo Golden Immortals could cultivate the last three. Star Gazer had a set of Heaven Revolving Star Formation, which now also belonged to Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng collected the items on the ground and the formation, then walked out.

Wang Ruyan's face lit up with joy upon seeing Wang Changsheng emerge safely.

"Where should we go next?" Wang Ruyan asked, taking out a map. They had endured some hardships to reach this location.

"Let's visit this place; there might be something good there." Wang Changsheng pointed to a spot on the map, marked with a blue symbol. According to their investigation, locations with blue markings might contain immortal artifact fragments or similar items.

Wang Ruyan nodded, and together with Wang Changsheng, they departed.

In a vast, boundless wasteland, dense silver threads were visible in the void, stretching from sky to ground like a colossal cage, sealing off an entire area. Numerous swirling vortices also dotted the void, rotating slowly and emitting strong spatial fluctuations, while clusters of crimson fire clouds drifted high above.

As spatial fluctuations surged, a massive void aperture appeared, from which Kui flew out, covered in wounds, while the other chaotic beasts were nowhere to be seen. They had triggered spatial restrictions and were forced to separate. Logically, as Kui mastered spatial laws, any spatial restrictions nearby should not have escaped its notice. However, they encountered linked restrictions; others triggered these restrictions, altering their operation and location, causing the beasts to suffer innocently. It was precisely the presence of these linked restrictions that made the Immortal Chaotic Tomb full of unknowns, leading to the downfall of many high-level immortals and chaotic beasts.

Kui landed on the ground, scanning its surroundings with a deep frown. It seemed to discover something and walked forward. Not far ahead, a massive corpse came into view, with a ten-colored core crystal inside.

"A ten-colored chaotic beast's core crystal!" Kui was both surprised and delighted; this was truly an unexpected windfall. It strode to the massive corpse and took possession of the ten-colored core crystal.

"Haha, there's hope for evolution now." Kui laughed heartily. By devouring the ten-colored core crystal and refining its energy, then entering the Mother Pagoda for sacrifice, its chances of a fifth evolution increased significantly. It rushed into the distance, leaving the area.

On a vast, boundless plain, numerous golden vortices dotted the void, rotating slowly and emitting a colossal roar. A massive abyss was visible, where lightning flashed and thunder rumbled, and various immortal lights intertwined.

A deafening roar echoed, and the ground shook violently. Fire Roarer flew out from it, clad in top-grade chaotic armor, his right arm missing, his body covered in blood, and his eyes filled with terror. In his left hand, he clutched a jade fragment that shimmered with an incessant azure light, its surface covered in cracks, appearing as if it could shatter at any moment.

"Where do you think you're going!" A cold male voice rang out. No sooner had the words faded than a massive silver blade light shot out from the abyss, instantly catching up to Fire Roarer. The silver blade light struck the top-grade chaotic armor, emitting a muffled clang of metal on metal, leaving several small cracks on the armor.

A silver light flared, and a tall young man in silver robes emerged, with a pair of shimmering silver feathered wings on his back and silver electric arcs coursing around his body. The young man in silver robes held a long blade that shimmered with an incessant silver light—a top-grade immortal artifact. He swung the silver long blade, striking at Fire Roarer's head and severing it. The azure jade fragment slipped from his grasp, plummeting towards the ground, while a miniature spirit flew out of the body and darted into the distance.

A deafening roar came from high above, as a massive silver lightning pillar streaked across the sky, striking towards the spirit. With a single grab, the young man in silver robes made the azure jade fragment fly towards him. Halfway there, the azure jade fragment halted in mid-air as a figure flashed into existence—it was Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng snatched the azure jade fragment. A giant blue palm covered in profound musical notes flew forth, blocking the descending silver lightning pillar, as Wang Ruyan arrived.

"Daoist Wang, Madam Wang, help me! I've been to many places, I can lead you to treasures. That treasure was something I found, and it's yours now," the miniature spirit spoke, its tone anxious.

"Daoist Huo trusts us, please hide inside for now!" Wang Ruyan said, summoning a golden jade vase, which instantly appeared before the miniature spirit.

Fire Roarer had no other choice and flew into the golden jade vase.

"The Azure Lotus Immortal Couple!" The young man in silver robes frowned when he saw Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan. The Azure Lotus Immortal Couple was now known to everyone, so he had naturally seen portraits of Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

"A Dao artifact fragment, haha! If I swallow this, I'll recover much faster!" Qing Xuan's excited voice rang in Wang Changsheng's ear; the young man in silver robes could not hear it. The azure jade fragment Wang Changsheng had snatched was a Dao artifact fragment, a great supplement for Qing Xuan.

"A Dao artifact fragment!" Wang Changsheng felt a surge of secret joy. No wonder Qing Xuan was so excited; there was actually a Dao artifact fragment here.

"We haven't interfered with each other's affairs. Daoist Wang, return the item to me," the young man in silver robes said.

"That was given to me by Daoist Huo. Since when did it become yours?" Wang Changsheng replied dismissively.

"Hmph, if that's the case, then there's nothing more to say." The young man in silver robes' expression turned cold. He formed a hand seal, and a vast ocean surged behind him. A silver moon slowly rose, floating on the sea surface, rotating continuously. A crescent-shaped silver blade light swept forth, heading directly towards Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

"Dao Art: Bright Moon Over the Sea!" Wang Changsheng's expression tightened. He hadn't expected the opponent to master such a Dao Art; no wonder they dared to attack them. The silver blade light instantly reached Wang Changsheng. At the same time, a deafening thunderclap echoed from high above, as an incredibly thick silver lightning pillar tore through the sky, striking towards Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

Wang Changsheng raised his right hand, and nine Sea-Calming Pearls flew out, changing the very color of the sky and earth. His body rapidly expanded. The nine Sea-Calming Pearls emitted dazzling blue light, and one of them smashed towards the silver blade light. The silver blade light collided with the Sea-Calming Pearl and instantly dispersed. Wang Ruyan slapped her right hand towards her head, and a giant blue palm flashed forth, blocking the descending silver lightning pillar.

"Daoist Wang, Madam Wang, return the item to me, and I will leave immediately," the young man in silver robes said with a frown.
