Chapter 4818: Treasure Hunt

After refining the Sky-Severing Blade, Wang Changsheng stood up and looked towards the towering green light in the distant sky. "It's so conspicuous," he said, "the Chaos Beasts have probably spotted it too. Let's hurry over first. Hopefully, we can get there before them and secure the treasure."

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan transformed into two streaks of light and flew towards the towering green light.

Not long after, they arrived at their destination, both drawing a sharp breath in surprise.

Following their gaze, they saw a magnificent, towering peak. This peak stretched from heaven to earth, standing proudly like a pillar supporting the sky.

The area above the mid-slope was enveloped in a bright green light, making it very conspicuous. At the foot of the mountain stood a green stone stele over a hundred zhang tall, inscribed with the three golden characters "Gathering Immortal Peak." A flight of green stone steps extended from the base to the summit.

A ten-colored Chaos Beast, with the head of a rat, the body of a human, and bat wings, was slowly ascending the green stone steps towards the summit.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan flew towards Gathering Immortal Peak. As soon as they approached within ten thousand zhang of the peak, their bodies uncontrollably plummeted towards the ground, eventually stopping just ten zhang above it.

Wang Changsheng’s face showed a look of sudden understanding. "The restriction is so strong," he said, "no wonder it didn't fly up."

"Let's go up too! We can't let it get there first," Wang Ruyan said.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan flew towards Gathering Immortal Peak, landing on the green stone steps. Immediately, a powerful gravitational force emerged, as if a colossal mountain were pressing down on them.

They strode up the mountain rapidly.

After reaching the mid-slope, the ten-colored Chaos Beast's pace slowed.

It also spotted Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan. It threw a punch, and a massive green fist, imbued with the power of six fundamental laws, shot forth directly at Wang Changsheng.

Wang Ruyan countered with a palm strike, and a colossal black palm, carrying the power of five fundamental laws, appeared instantly to meet it.

The black giant palm collided with the green giant fist; the latter disintegrated instantly, like paper. The black giant palm then struck the ten-colored Chaos Beast, causing its body to tremble.

Seizing this opportunity, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan accelerated their pace. Having cultivated Dao Bodies, their physical strength was considerable.

"'You've opened two Supreme Fundamental Laws!'" the ten-colored Chaos Beast exclaimed in surprise, a hint of fear appearing in its eyes.

Its body erupted with dazzling ten-colored spiritual light as it rushed towards the summit.

After taking several hundred steps, its speed progressively slowed. Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan's pace also decreased.

Wang Changsheng took out a jade ruler, shimmering with golden light, and gave it a gentle shake. A wave of golden radiance swept out, enveloping both of them. The pressure on them eased, allowing them to quicken their steps and catch up to the ten-colored Chaos Beast.

Wang Changsheng, wielding the Ice Soul Spear, charged directly at the ten-colored Chaos Beast. Wang Ruyan activated her fundamental laws to attack it.

In the confined space, the ten-colored Chaos Beast had no escape. It swung the green long saber in its hand, parrying the Ice Soul Spear.

The Ice Soul Spear clashed with the green long saber, producing a dull clang of metal. Several small cracks appeared on the blade.

The Golden Glazed Blade shot forward, severing the green long saber in half. It then struck the ten-colored Chaos Beast with a dull thud, leaving more than a dozen small cracks on the surface of its Chaos Armor.

Knowing it was outmatched, the ten-colored Chaos Beast steeled itself and leaped away, intending to jump down to the ground.

Countless thin green lights appeared in the void, like countless sharp blades, slicing its body into innumerable chunks of flesh.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan's expressions grew solemn, and they involuntarily swallowed.

"Chaos Beasts are coming over," Wang Ruyan said, frowning.

Wang Changsheng looked into the distance and saw three streaks of light: Long, Zhu, and Jiao.

"Azure Lotus Immortals! Haha, this time, let's see where you can run! Come on, let's catch them and destroy them!" Jiao said excitedly, flying towards Gathering Immortal Peak.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan immediately quickened their pace, ascending the mountain rapidly.

A large number of immortals and Chaos Beasts arrived, including Wang Qingshan, Mo Yinyin, Zen Master Mingren, Dao Ancestor Tianwu, and Master Miaode.

"Stop them; don't let them interfere with us destroying the Azure Lotus Immortals," Long commanded.

The Chaos Beasts responded and attacked Mo Yinyin and the others.

Immediately, continuous roaring sounds filled the air, and various immortal lights flared brilliantly in the sky, a conspicuous sight.

At Gathering Immortal Peak, Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan also reached the summit, appearing in a vast bluestone plaza. In the center of the plaza was a massive nine-colored light cluster, containing ten items: five high-grade Dao artifacts, two green porcelain bottles, a golden storage bracelet, and two immortal talismans.

Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan's faces lit up with joy, and they both moved to attack the nine-colored light cluster.

He threw a punch, and a massive green fist appeared instantly, striking the nine-colored light cluster, causing it to indent.

Wang Ruyan conjured the Golden Glazed Blade and cleaved the nine-colored light cluster, causing its spiritual light to dim.

Wang Changsheng flicked his wrist, sending the Ice Soul Spear directly towards the nine-colored light cluster.

The Ice Soul Spear struck the nine-colored light cluster with a dull thud, and the cluster shattered.

Wang Ruyan flicked her sleeve, collecting all ten items.

At this moment, the three Chaos Beasts also caught up.

"'Gathering Immortal Peak! Humph, more like Burial Immortal Peak! Let's all go at once and kill them!'" Jiao said with a cold tone, swinging a massive yellow axe to attack them.

Long and Zhu either activated their fundamental laws or manipulated their high-grade Dao artifacts to attack them.

A series of booming explosions erupted, filling the void with cracks that rapidly expanded, causing the entire space to shake violently.

"The Azure Lotus Immortals are fiercely battling Dao Ancestors who have opened eight fundamental laws; this space is about to collapse," Mo Yinyin said, frowning.

The cracks in the void grew larger and larger. Wang Changsheng was fighting two Chaos Beasts alone, and multiple bloodstains appeared on his body.

Eighteen Sea-Stabilizing Beads orbited around him, creating an astonishing display.

Wang Ruyan, fighting a single Chaos Beast, was under less pressure.

"This space is going to collapse!" Long said.

"Let it collapse then! We must kill them today. If they escape, they'll surely become another Zhou Dian—no, their threat is even greater than Zhou Dian's!" Jiao said, his voice icy.

Wang Changsheng formed a hand seal, and the eighteen Sea-Stabilizing Beads erupted with dazzling blue light. They transformed into eighteen massive blue dragons, surging in all directions, rapidly expanding the cracks in the void.

Wang Changsheng knew he was no match for two Chaos Beasts that had opened eight fundamental laws. Thus, he decided to shatter this void and seek an opportunity to escape.

The void emitted a dull "buzzing" sound as the cracks continued to widen.

Jiao activated his spatial fundamental law, attempting to restore the space to normal, but it was futile. Wang Ruyan also took action, further disrupting the space.

"This space is collapsing fast! Run!" Zen Master Mingren exclaimed. A collapsing space was extremely dangerous; one would be fortunate to survive without a high-grade Dao artifact for protection, otherwise, death was almost certain.
