Chapter 4812: Superior Dao Artifact

A colossal, towering peak with steep slopes dominated the landscape. The area above its mid-slope was shrouded in white mist, obscuring what lay within.

Wei stood at the foot of the mountain, gazing towards the towering peak.

"What is this place?" Wei murmured to herself.

"Your burial ground!"

A cold male voice resounded. No sooner had the words fallen than a colossal azure fist tore through the sky, heading straight for Wei. Simultaneously, countless blue seawater surged from the ground, generating monstrous waves. Gigantic blue water dragons flew out from the surging water, lunging at Wei.

Wei reacted quickly, striking out with a palm. A colossal golden palm flashed forth, meeting the attack. The golden palm collided with the azure fist, emitting a dull thud. The golden palm instantly disintegrated, and the azure fist struck Wei. Wei's body trembled, and she stumbled back several steps.

"Two supreme fundamental laws! How is that possible!" Wei exclaimed.

Eighteen blue water dragons swooped in, colliding with Wei. At the same time, two thick yellow chains burst from the ground, flying up from beneath the earth to coil around her feet. Wei let out a fierce roar, spewing a golden sound wave. It swiftly swept past the eighteen blue water dragons, whose bodies disintegrated, transforming into eighteen gigantic Sea Stabilizing Pearls that then shot straight towards Wei.

Wei hastily wielded two colossal golden axes, meeting the incoming attack. The golden axes collided with the Sea Stabilizing Pearls, producing dull metallic clangs. Wei was sent flying backward, and over a dozen small cracks appeared on the surface of her Chaos Battle Armor. Dazzling ten-colored immortal light erupted from her body, and the wounds healed.

A dense barrage of azure fist shadows flew in, repeatedly striking Wei's body and producing a series of dull thuds. Wei's body began to tremble, and multiple cracks appeared on the surface of her soul sea. She swung a golden axe, chopping at the yellow chains, producing a dull metallic clang. A faint hack mark appeared on the surface of the yellow chains.

One of the Sea Stabilizing Pearls slammed over, and Wei wielded a golden axe to meet it. The Sea Stabilizing Pearl collided with the golden axe again. Over a dozen tiny cracks appeared on the axe blade, and Wei, feeling a tremendous force assault her, was sent flying backward.

This time, before she could land, a colossal, towering peak, constantly swirling with blue light, appeared and slammed down directly at her. Wei's feet were still bound by the yellow chains, making evasion impossible. She could only wield her golden axes to meet the incoming attack.

With two dull "clangs," the two golden axes collided with the towering peak. Wei's massive body sank into the ground. A Sea Stabilizing Pearl then slammed into her, striking her body. She spat out a large mouthful of blood, and dozens of cracks appeared on her Chaos Battle Armor, continuously widening.

The Grand Expanse Spirit-Slaying Blade flew over, striking the Chaos Battle Armor. The armor could no longer withstand the attack, shattering into pieces. Wei's head was also severed by Wang Changsheng, and as soon as her spirit left her body, Wang Changsheng seized it.

Wang Changsheng found a golden storage bracelet on Wei's person. This was something Wei had confiscated from an immortal. Wang Changsheng's divine sense swept over it, revealing over thirty thousand pieces of fifth-tier immortal materials inside. He put away the storage bracelet and Wei's corpse. With a flick of his incantation, the eighteen Sea Stabilizing Pearls rapidly shrank, flying into his sleeve.

Wang Changsheng strode towards the towering peak. He felt a powerful gravitational pull, but having cultivated a Dao Body, he was largely unaffected. Upon reaching the mid-slope, Wang Changsheng strode into the white mist. From high above, a deafening roar sounded as thick bolts of nine-colored immortal lightning struck down.

Wang Changsheng summoned seven Lightning-Restraining Banners. With a flick of his incantation, the seven banners circled him once, transforming into a thick silver light barrier that covered his entire body. The nine-colored immortal lightning bolts successively struck the silver light barrier, vanishing without a trace.

Wang Changsheng could see a magnificent azure hall. Above its entrance hung a square golden plaque, inscribed with the three characters "Azure Plum Hall." The main doors were tightly shut.

"Azure Plum Hall, it doesn't seem like a crucial place!" Wang Changsheng muttered with a frown.

Wang Changsheng strode towards the Azure Plum Hall. As soon as he approached within a hundred feet of it, countless mysterious azure runes emerged from the ground, transforming into thick azure chains that coiled around Wang Changsheng's feet. The main doors of the Azure Plum Hall automatically opened. Nine azure-glowing flying daggers flew out from within, instantly merging into one colossal azure blade that slashed towards Wang Changsheng.

Wang Changsheng flicked his sleeve. The eighteen Sea Stabilizing Pearls flew out, transforming into eighteen gigantic blue water dragons. They entwined with each other, merging into one massive blue dragon that opened its gaping maw and swallowed the azure blade. The massive body of the blue dragon slammed into the ground. The ground collapsed, the azure chains shattered, and Wang Changsheng was freed.

The blue dragon thrashed its tail and head, lunging towards the Azure Plum Hall. The main doors of the Azure Plum Hall automatically closed, but the blue dragon crashed into them, shattering the doors and revealing a spacious and bright hall within. A gigantic ape puppet beast walked inside, finding nothing unusual.

To the left of the Azure Plum Hall was a bluestone corridor, its destination unknown. The gigantic ape puppet beast walked towards the bluestone corridor, finding nothing unusual. Wang Changsheng followed. Before long, he reached the end, where four stone chambers came into view.

The gigantic ape puppet beast punched the door of the first stone chamber, producing a dull thud, but the door remained motionless. Wang Changsheng struck out with a punch, and the door shattered into pieces. Inside was a formation spanning several hundred feet, with each groove holding top-grade immortal essence stones. In the center was a gigantic Immortal Gathering Jade, the size of a water vat.

"Such a large piece of Immortal Gathering Jade!" Wang Changsheng exclaimed in surprise, then put away the Immortal Gathering Jade.

He opened the door to the second hall, and a rich aroma of wine wafted out. Dozens of wine jars were visible, each with a red seal on top bearing the name of the wine. He opened the third stone chamber, and a golden fruit tree, over two zhang tall, came into view, bearing over twenty golden fruits.

"Golden Apricot Jade Yuan Fruit! Such an immortal fruit actually exists," Wang Changsheng marveled. According to the Chaos Era texts compiled by Wang Qiuting, the Golden Apricot Jade Yuan Fruit had a growth cycle of nine hundred million years. Its healing effects were excellent, earning it the moniker "Holy Healing Fruit" in the Chaos Era. It could be used for alchemy or brewing wine.

Wang Changsheng released Wang Shen and Wang TunTian. Wang Shen carefully picked over twenty Golden Apricot Jade Yuan Fruits, then cooperated with Wang Changsheng to transplant the Golden Apricot Jade Yuan Fruit tree.

Opening the door to the fourth stone chamber, a hundred-zhang-wide stone chamber came into view. To the left was an azure stone shelf with over a dozen Dao artifacts placed upon it. Two were high-grade Dao artifacts, while the rest were mid-grade. The two high-grade Dao artifacts were a golden short sword and a white long spear. Wang Changsheng picked up the white long spear; it felt feather-light. Upon injecting his fundamental power, the long spear became incredibly heavy.

He nodded with satisfaction. After the Heaven-Shaking Staff was destroyed, he had lacked a suitable Dao artifact, and this Ice Soul Spear was excellent. He sat down cross-legged and began refining the Ice Soul Spear. With these two high-grade Dao artifacts, Wang Changsheng would not be in such a sorry state if he encountered a Dao Ancestor who had opened eight fundamental laws again.
