Chapter 4643: North Cold Immortal Palace

He didn't want to engage Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan in a fight, but the treasure was simply too important.

"Daoist Huo already gave it to us. How did it become yours?" Wang Changsheng sneered. This was a fragment of a Dao Artifact, and he couldn't possibly hand it over.

The silver-robed youth was also a mid-stage Grand Unity Golden Immortal, and his willingness to confront Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan indicated a strong backing or confidence.

Hearing this, the silver-robed youth's expression darkened. He chanted an incantation, and a deafening thunderclap reverberated from high above. Lightning flashed and thunder boomed as tens of thousands of massive silver lightning pillars ripped through the sky, striking towards Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

Wang Changsheng raised his right hand, and a massive Tai Chi diagram materialized, blocking above his head. The dense silver lightning pillars continuously struck the diagram. It rotated rapidly, causing all the silver lightning pillars to dissipate.

Nine enlarged Sea-Calming Pearls hurtled towards the silver-robed youth. As he attempted to evade them, a joyous flute melody rang out. He instantly felt dizzy, as if multiple sharp swords were piercing his Soul Sea. His body trembled, his features contorted, and he spewed a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale.

"A soul-based Dao Art!" the silver-robed youth exclaimed in shock.

One of the Sea-Calming Pearls struck. He quickly swung the silver long saber in his hand to meet it. With a dull clang of metal, several tiny cracks appeared on the saber's surface. The silver-robed youth was aghast. This Thunder Rainbow Saber had been refined with a Primordial Spirit Treasure. He had heard that Immortal Lord Taihao possessed complete sets of top-grade immortal artifacts refined with Primordial Spirit Treasures, and he thought that even if he were outmatched, his weapon wouldn't be damaged in a single clash!

As the nine Sea-Calming Pearls continued their assault, the silver-robed youth summoned a small cauldron glowing with circulating silver light. He channeled an incantation into it, and the silver cauldron rapidly expanded, spewing forth a silvery mist that enveloped the nine Sea-Calming Pearls.

Lightning surged around his body. He swung his saber, and a silver saber light swept forth, transforming into a massive silver lightning dragon that lunged at Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

Wang Ruyan held the Heavenly Sound Flute in both hands, and a blue sound wave swept out. It collided with the silver lightning dragon, nullifying both. A massive silver lightning bolt shot skyward, and the powerful air current tore through the void, filling the area with dust and smoke.

A silver long saber, continuously gleaming with silver light, shot out from the lightning, slashing towards Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng summoned the Taihao Soul-Slaying Saber, which collided with the silver long saber, emitting a dull clang of metal.

The nine Sea-Calming Pearls burst forth with blinding blue light. The silver mist developed numerous cracks and shattered into pieces, allowing the nine Sea-Calming Pearls to slam into the silver-robed youth.

Lightning surged around the silver-robed youth's body, as if he were about to unleash a secret art. However, a powerful spatial force emerged, trapping him high in the air.

"Spatial Law! Impossible!" the silver-robed youth exclaimed, his face etched with disbelief. As far as he knew, the Green Lotus Immortal Couple both mastered Soul Law. How could they also control Spatial Law? Immortals could at most master one supreme law. Did the Green Lotus Immortal Couple master two supreme laws? Could there be another Grand Unity Golden Immortal present?

Before he could ponder further, a giant, blue-glowing fist shot towards him. Numerous cracks appeared in the void, and the ground beneath collapsed and froze.

The silver-robed youth opened his mouth and spat out a thick beam of silver lightning. It collided with the blue giant fist, and the silver lightning instantly dissipated. The powerful air current made his hair whip wildly in the wind.

The blue giant fist struck the silver-robed youth. He coughed up a large mouthful of blood, his face paling, and his chest caved in, revealing a bloody hole. A Nascent Soul, whose features closely resembled the youth, flew out of his body, its expression frantic.

"A top-tier Immortal Physique!" the Nascent Soul exclaimed.

A silver talisman shot towards it. A fierce glint appeared in the Nascent Soul's eyes as its body rapidly swelled, on the verge of self-detonation.

A joyous flute melody rang out, and the Nascent Soul's body trembled, then returned to normal. Seizing the opportunity, the silver talisman affixed itself to the Nascent Soul, and its gaze became vacant.

Wang Ruyan flew over and seized the Nascent Soul. She then summoned the Green Lotus Pendant and entered it.

A dazzling green light emanated from Wang Changsheng's palm, enveloping the green jade piece. Four karmic threads were visible, suggesting that four more fragments of a Dao Artifact might exist. Only Dao Ancestors could possess Dao Artifacts, and only beings of that caliber could destroy one. It seemed the war that erupted back then was incredibly fierce, even obliterating Dao Artifacts.

He searched the corpse, extracting a silver storage bracelet, and picked up the silver long saber that lay scattered on the ground.

Not long after, Wang Ruyan emerged from the Green Lotus Pendant and reported, "This individual is from the Northern Cold Immortal Palace in the Qianhan Immortal Realm. He possesses the Heavenly Thunder Blade Physique and cultivates the 'Myriad Thunders Transform into Blades Immortal Scripture.' The Northern Cold Immortal Palace boasts over a dozen Grand Unity Golden Immortals, a multitude of experts, and masters many Dao arts. This person cultivated an Immortal Physique, opened nine orifices, and entered the Immortal Graveyard with fellow disciples to seek treasure. He triggered a chain of restrictions and was separated from his companions."

"The Qianhan Immortal Realm! The Northern Cold Immortal Palace! Over a dozen Grand Unity Golden Immortals!" Wang Changsheng frowned. No wonder this person dared to engage them.

"He has killed Grand Unity Golden Immortals who mastered Soul Law," Wang Ruyan explained. "He believed your greatest trump card was a complete set of top-grade immortal artifacts refined with Primordial Spirit Treasures, and he dared to attack us, relying on his own top-grade immortal artifact, also refined with a Primordial Spirit Treasure."

"Where did he obtain a top-grade immortal artifact refined with a Primordial Spirit Treasure?" Wang Changsheng pressed.

"He acquired it in the Immortal Graveyard," Wang Ruyan replied, producing the silver-robed youth's Nascent Soul. "Fiery Roarer, even wearing his top-grade Chaos Armor, was no match for this person. His victory over Fiery Roarer made him exceptionally confident."

A green light bloomed from Wang Changsheng's palm, enveloping the Nascent Soul, revealing a multitude of karmic threads. Wang Changsheng activated the Law of Karma, severing all these threads. Unless an acquaintance also mastered the Law of Karma, no one would remember him, similar to what happened with Murong Bing.

"That Thunder Rainbow Saber can be given to Meng Bin to wield! Let's go, we should check the abyss and see if there are any more similar fragments." Wang Changsheng's gaze fell upon the massive abyss.

He collected the valuables from Fiery Roarer's corpse, taking both the body and the Chaos Armor.

They flew into the abyss, where clear signs of combat were visible on the ground, along with numerous giant craters. Wang Ruyan activated her Li Fire True Eyes and meticulously investigated, but found no powerful restrictions.

After a short while, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan emerged from the abyss. "It appears finding a Dao Artifact fragment here was merely a coincidence, much like those yellow flying daggers we encountered earlier," Wang Ruyan remarked. "It was likely carried here by the fluctuations of the battle. The other fragments should be within the Immortal Graveyard. If Qiu Lin advances to the Grand Unity Golden Immortal stage, I wonder if she'll be able to deduce the whereabouts of the remaining fragments."

"Let's continue our search," Wang Changsheng said. "Hopefully, we can find them. If not, we'll have to consider other methods."

They left the area to search for Dao Artifact fragments elsewhere.

Kui emerged from the entrance of the Immortal Graveyard, its body covered in wounds. It transformed into a streak of light and departed the area.
