Chapter 4674: Big Blunder (None Today)

"If we were to refine it into a fourth-tier immortal puppet, its power would certainly be formidable," said Wang Ruyan.

"No, let's not," Wang Changsheng replied. "If we actually did that, the True Dragon Clan would likely come looking for us. Using it as a puppet would be a waste; we could refine several sets of ultimate-grade immortal artifacts from it instead."

In the lower realms, many cultivators would refine the spirit essences of high-tier flood dragons into treasures or their remains into puppet beasts, yielding considerable power. In the Immortal Realm, low-tier immortals frequently slay low-tier true dragons to refine their spirit essences into treasures or their corpses into puppet beasts. However, high-tier immortals would not dare to do such a thing, and even if they did, they would not readily use such items.

If Wang Changsheng were to actually refine the remains of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal true dragon into a puppet beast for battle, the True Dragon Clan would undoubtedly investigate. Similar incidents have happened in the past, leading to the True Dragon Clan confiscating such immortal puppets.

The True Dragon Clan possesses immense power. If the remains of one of their Grand Luo Golden Immortal members were refined into a puppet beast, the news would damage the clan's prestige. Likewise, if someone were to refine a Taiyi Golden Immortal member of the Wang family into a ghost or a corpse puppet, the Wang family would certainly not let the matter rest.

This true dragon skeleton is massive, providing enough material for Wang Changsheng to refine multiple sets of ultimate-grade immortal artifacts. Given the robust physique of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal true dragon, artifacts crafted from its bones would undoubtedly possess immense power.

"And there's the beast hide too!" Wang Ruyan said with a faint smile, flicking her wrist again. A golden beast hide materialized on the ground.

Wang Changsheng's face lit up with delight; he had assumed there was no beast hide.

"I knew you wanted to refine a set of gauntlets, so I only brought out the bones, just to tease you," Wang Ruyan said, smiling.

"With this gourd of true dragon essence blood, we can cultivate the Nine-Turn True Dragon Fruit and Heavenly Dragon Tea Trees. Otherwise, we would have had to make Qingxiao bleed," Wang Changsheng remarked.

Although Wang Qingxiao is already a true dragon, using his essence blood to cultivate Nine-Turn True Dragon Fruit trees and Heavenly Dragon Tea Trees would be too detrimental to him. Wang Changsheng had refrained from doing so, instead dispatching individuals to seek the essence blood of a Grand Luo Golden Immortal true dragon. Now that they possessed this true dragon essence blood, they could proceed with cultivating both the Nine-Turn True Dragon Fruit trees and the Heavenly Dragon Tea Trees.

The beast hide could be refined into gauntlets or inner armor, and the bones could be used to craft sets of ultimate-grade immortal artifacts.

"Those entities must have sensed Qingxuan's presence, haven't they? The Qilin Clan might be in for some trouble," Wang Ruyan commented.

Qingxuan's brief assistance in trapping the ten-colored Chaos Beast allowed Wang Changsheng to use the Ruyi Gate to transport it to Yunhang Continent. Consequently, the Ten Directions Mother-Son Pagoda would undoubtedly detect Qingxuan's presence.

"Don't worry, I only trapped it for a moment. At most, the artifact spirits of other Dao artifacts will know my general vicinity; they lack the ability to pinpoint my exact location," Qingxuan's voice resonated in Wang Changsheng's ear, filled with arrogance.

Wang Changsheng nodded. He stored the beast hide and bones, then took out his communication disk. Contacting Wang Yixin, he entrusted her with the true dragon essence blood for cultivating the Nine-Turn True Dragon Fruit trees and Heavenly Dragon Tea Trees.

After a few instructions, Wang Changsheng dismissed Wang Yixin.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan entered the Azure Lotus Pavilion, each proceeding to a private chamber to refine artifacts and create talismans.

In Ancestral Dragon City, within a magnificent golden palace, the Ancestral Dragon sat on the main throne, his expression austere.

Long Ying was currently giving her report, her demeanor solemn.

"I've heard it's about a mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure, the Profound Soul Bowl. Even King Beasts wouldn't dare to withstand a single strike from it, as one blow can severely wound their divine souls. The Tumet King Tribe and the Qiyan King Tribe have allied, purportedly to destroy this treasure," Long Ying reported.

"Hmph, the Profound Soul Bowl is merely a diversion," the Ancestral Dragon stated. "The true target is a Dao artifact."

He possessed a Dao artifact, the Heavenly Dragon Blade, complete with an artifact spirit.

Not long ago, the Heavenly Dragon Blade's artifact spirit detected the aura of that particular Dao artifact. However, the aura quickly vanished. Unlike previous instances, this time it was relatively close to Ancestral Dragon City, allowing the Heavenly Dragon Blade to pinpoint its approximate location: within the Qilin Clan's territory.

"What! A Dao artifact!" Long Ying exclaimed, astonished.

"Immediately dispatch forces to the Qilin Clan," the Ancestral Dragon commanded. "Inform them that it doesn't matter who obtains the Dao artifact, but they absolutely must not let the Chaos Beasts seize it. Send reinforcements to assist them."

In his view, the alliance between the Tumet King Tribe and the Qiyan King Tribe against the Qilin Clan was solely for that Dao artifact; the Profound Soul Bowl was nothing more than a pretense.

The Qilin Clan had kept this information secret, intending to monopolize the Dao artifact. The Ancestral Dragon wasn't concerned if the Qilin Clan claimed it for themselves; his true worry was the Dao artifact falling into the hands of the Chaos Beasts.

"Understood, Lord Ancestral Dragon," Long Ying replied, accepting her orders before departing.

"It seems someone truly has obtained that Dao artifact and is using it in combat," the Ancestral Dragon murmured to himself.

The Qilin Clan and any high-tier immortals under their command who had achieved significant battle results were all under suspicion. It was quite possible that someone from the Qilin Clan had obtained the Dao artifact.

In the central region of the Chaos Continent, amidst a boundless emerald mountain range, stood a towering black pagoda, its surface etched with countless recondite runes.

Hai stood beside the towering pagoda, his expression one of reverence.

"That individual has reappeared, right here on the Chaos Continent. Indeed, he is the one who injured my son," a low, masculine voice resonated from within the towering pagoda.

"Lord Teng, where is he?" Hai inquired.

"In the southwest of the Chaos Continent! If I recall correctly, that area belongs to the Qilin Clan and the Yuanfeng Clan," a commanding male voice replied.

The moment the voice ceased, the towering pagoda pulsed with black light, and a stunning woman in a black dress materialized.

This was Teng Xiao, the artifact spirit of the Ten Directions Mother-Son Pagoda. Although appearing female, her voice was masculine, explaining why Qingxuan referred to her as a "yin-yang oddity."

"The Tumet King Tribe and the Qiyan King Tribe have allied against the Qilin Clan; could it be for this treasure? They assert that the Qilin Clan obtained a mutated Primordial Spirit Treasure, the Profound Soul Bowl," Hai stated.

"Who knows?" Teng Xiao replied. "Claiming it's the Profound Soul Bowl might just be a smokescreen. It's also possible that another immortal acquired that Dao artifact and used it against you. Send word for other tribes to join in. If that individual appears again, I will personally annihilate it."

"Yes, Lord Teng," Hai affirmed, accepting the command and departing.

"Last time, those three fellows kept me occupied, allowing you to merely be injured. This time, without their interference, I'd like to see you escape," Teng Xiao muttered to herself.

In Immortal Fall Valley, a colossal, interconnected network of ravines, three Dao artifacts floated high in the air.

Within the Hall of Unwavering Words, three artifact spirits, including Yan Yinuo, were in discussion.

"That individual is on the Chaos Continent; there's no mistake," Yan Yinuo stated excitedly.

"He dares to show himself on the Chaos Continent, unafraid of detection by that yin-yang oddity. We must go and assist, or that oddity will slay him," said the yellow-robed elder.

This was Meng Kun, the artifact spirit of the Primordial Chaos Ranking.

"I have no objections; let's proceed," the silver-clad youth agreed.

This was Qian Xiao, the artifact spirit of the Qiankun Pagoda.

The three Dao artifacts departed from Immortal Fall Valley, heading swiftly towards the Qilin Clan's territory.

Wang Qingxiao is now a true dragon, but there's no need to use his essence blood to cultivate the Nine-Turn True Dragon Fruit trees and Heavenly Dragon Tea Trees. It's better to use the essence blood from other Grand Luo Golden Immortal true dragons.
