Chapter 1055: A Strand Of Energy From A Pseudo Saint

Feng Feiyun summoned his weapon essence. It exuded blinding and crackling white rays, easily refining the three spirit treasures and reducing them to scrap metals.

It absorbed the spirits and became brighter than before, looking like a moon floating above Feiyun.

“Whoosh!” It shot out a beam to kill that guardian. The corpse fell down and was devoured by the lava.

He pointed at the remaining guardian and said: “You cannot defeat me. Leave if you want to live.”

“My pride as a guardian will not allow that.” The expert activated his domain and his fist turned into bronze.

His target was not Feng Feiyun but the ground beneath him.

It cracked and revealed divine runes. The hidden formations in the volcano became active and instantly turned him into blood.

At the same time, Feiyun found himself in a tough situation. That guardian chose to die in order to bring Feiyun down with him.

“Boom!” Numerous murderous rays shot for Feiyun.

The heaven moat turned into a figure. This was an intent left behind by a pseudo saint. Though it was only a shadow, its power shouldn't be underestimated.

It swung its hammer downward and split the volcano’s wall. Sparks splashed everywhere.

Feiyun has already been retreating the moment that figure started to form. Alas, the hammer still struck his chest ever so slightly, breaking several ribs. He would have been pulverized if it wasn’t for the dragon-phoenix armor.

He channeled his Golden Silkworm Scripture and healed the bones while continuously running away.

This shadow was extremely fast and could surpass Feiyun’s Swift Samsara. It didn’t take long before another smash came down for him.

He became alarmed and used all five domains at the same time while unleashing one technique after another.

“Cosmic Seal!”

“Phoenix Incineration!”

“Myriad Beast Force!”

He performed thirteen different techniques but couldn’t stop the hammer. The disparity was insurmountable.

It broke through the techniques and crushed the ground beneath. The incoming smash aiming at his back suffocated him.

“Saint energy!” He gathered all of them and released them at the target. They resembled shiny spider strings but this was still not enough.

“Boom!” He was sent flying again and vomited blood.

Nonetheless, he managed to weaken the blow enough to prevent a fatal injury. He healed again and used his phoenix wings to run to another volcano.

Alas, the shadow was simply faster and another swing came down. Its power shook the entire treasury.

‘Just one strand of intent is still too much right now. This is the power of a pseudo saint.’ He gritted his teeth and turned into a large phoenix, flying toward the hammer.

Running was impossible. The only chance to survive was to obtain the phoenix bone.

“Bam!” The hammer struck his dragon scales and didn’t break them down.

Nonetheless, the impact still affected his veins and bones, reverting him back to his human form. He vomited blood again, looking rather sorry.

The armor stopped the brunt of the attack but his veins have been obliterated along with his bones. Only the phoenix bones were intact.

‘I can’t fall or it’s all over. This can’t be my end!’ His indomitable will kept him flying toward the damaged volcano.

At the top was a red bone the size of a grind mill, looking like a flawless ruby. It exuded extreme heat and light.

The shadow also gave chase, becoming rather livid after failing to kill this puny cultivator. Its radiance intensified and resembled a blinding sun. Its footsteps resulted in violent quakes.

However, the bloodied Feiyun managed to reach the phoenix bone. It was taller than him and had numerous natural runes. Only a high-level phoenix had runes in its bones.

The runes were still faint and illegible, meaning that the phoenix has yet to become a saint.

“Come!” Feiyun shouted and sucked the bone into his cauldron. He then jumped inside as well.

“Boom!” The hammer smashed the cauldron just a split second later and slammed it underground.

“Shit, we’re late, he’s ashes now, not even one hair is left behind.” The turtle arrived and stood on top of a broken palace, looking at the volcanoes nearby.

The shadow noticed it right away and gazed in its direction.

The turtle got chills all over and immediately fled.

“Bam!” The hammer smashed its shell and sent it shooting into the ground, creating pits and cracks.

Strangely enough, the shell was extremely hard. It climbed out of the ground and slowly peeked out of its shell.

It saw the Evil Woman fighting with the shadow. She captured it using the Immeasurable Tower. It roared and tried to get out to no avail.

“Just a strand of energy, don’t even think about escaping. Suppress!” Her eyes became as black as ink while her skin became resplendent. She stood on top of the tower and channeled more energy into it.

Grandpa Bi and Bi Ningshuai climbed out of a cave with two big bags. They saw corpses everywhere and became afraid.

Grandpa Bi’s mouth twitched as he said: “We have to leave now, this woman killed one-third of the guardians at this point, the old monsters will awaken soon and no one will be able to leave then.”

“What about Feng Feiyun?” Ningshuai asked.

Grandpa Bi thought about the event back in Nine Abyss and said: “He’s an auspicious soul with a big shot protecting him, no need to worry.”

The turtle landed next to them and said: “She’s crazy and I don’t want to go down with her. Mao Laoshi, open the way.”

A black light appeared and turned into a fruit. All three sat on top of the fruit and it started flying. There were attackers along the way but none could catch up.

As for the Evil Woman, she stopped her assault after taking down the shadow. She looked around the treasury for Feng Feiyun but couldn’t find him.

“Raa!” Finally, a monstrous aura manifested into reality inside the treasury.

She immediately summoned her vessel to escape.

Leaving was far easier than entering since most of the formations only activated in one direction.

***

The treasury was built in a separate dimension connected to their world. Beneath the treasury was a spatial storm. Even paragons would be torn apart here.

A fiery tornado could be seen underneath, moving around without any direction. Inside was a cauldron.

Two great yet opposite forces were contending within the cauldron - life and death. They were being forced to fuse.
