Chapter 734: Seeing the Splendid Rivers and Mountains Again

It had been a month since the innate divine object emerged, and until now only the mysterious woman from the Immortal-Mortal Path had resonated with it. Now another one appeared, and many could no longer stand by.

No one was willing to let the divine object fall into an outsider's hands. If it were truly obtained by someone else, it would surely invite a collective attack.

Several terrifyingly powerful prodigies advanced through the void, each undefeated, each harboring an invincible heart.

Yang Tian sat cross-legged in the ninth heaven, his body flowing with supreme yang aura as he continuously communicated with the innate divine object.

The innate divine object was born alongside the Heavenly Yang Divine Pool. Yang Tian was now refining its companion substance, and his body carried a familiar aura of the divine object, making his chances of claiming it very high.

With a bang, a terrifying killing light struck, blindingly bright, every ripple dreadful, crossing the void toward Yang Tian's head.

The strike was so swift that Yang Tian didn't even turn around. Many felt relieved, thinking this human was too absorbed and his death a pity.

Just then, a colossal finger wreathed in brilliant divine radiance descended from the sky, shocking all onlookers as it directly shattered the incoming divine light.

"What's happening?" Many experts were astonished. Yang Tian hadn't moved at all—who was this intervening?

The Three-Eyed Saint's gaze wavered. His vertical eye glowed with hazy divine light, peering through the ages, and he saw a terrifying shadow hidden in the void.

Strands of dreadful soul pressure filled heaven and earth, causing even the Three-Eyed Saint's soul body to tremble, nearly forcing his soul out of his body.

"How is this possible?! There's a terrifying soul body hidden inside!" The Three-Eyed Saint found it unbelievable. The indistinct soul body filled him with dread.

Yang Tian's eyes flickered. He sensed a trace of mysterious divine light seeping in and, noticing the three-eyed man, a look of understanding appeared in his eyes.

With a light snort, the Divine Dragon Soul-Calming Seal hovering above his head suddenly burst forth with supreme divine might, like a god descending, pressing down on all of heaven and earth.

The Three-Eyed Saint's entire body trembled violently, as if facing a supreme being of the universe, nearly unable to resist kneeling.

"Pfft..." Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of blood, his aura withering, his vertical eye dim and lifeless.

A foreign prodigy suddenly spitting blood drew many strange looks. This was no ordinary person—he was a prodigy of the Three-Eyed Saint Clan.

A sacred eye that sees through heaven and earth, seeing through countless enemy killing moves, nearly invincible—a truly fearsome clan.

Several members of the Three-Eyed Saint Clan changed color. None of them had sensed what had just happened, yet the saint was already severely injured.

"Damn it..." The Three-Eyed Saint's face turned icy cold. The one who struck was a soul body, and it wielded a great soul-type killing weapon.

The divine thought he had just sent out was annihilated by that treasure, causing him to spit blood and his sacred eye to suffer considerable damage.

Yang Xiao awakened the Divine Dragon Soul-Calming Seal. Under the Great Path of the Primordial Spirit, all were invincible; a soul treasure was too powerful.

The Three-Eyed Saint's condition did not alarm the others. The Vermilion Bird was the first to charge in, its body ablaze with divine flames, every inch of its skin radiating scorching heat that kept others at bay.

It struck through the air, aiming directly for Yang Tian's brow, seemingly intent on killing him outright.

The Three-Eyed Saint watched with glee, knowing that Yang Tian had a soul body protector wielding a great killing weapon. The Vermilion Bird's soul body would likely be driven away.

A towering blood light descended from the sky, radiating fluctuations that could destroy all things, each strand making one tremble.

"What is this?" Some people's soul bodies shivered, nearly collapsing to the ground. The mass of blood light was soul-shaking.

The Vermilion Bird's expression changed. A small black seal emerged and shot toward the blood mist at incredible speed.

With a hum, the moment they collided, an overwhelming wave of soul fluctuations swept out, filling heaven and earth with invincible divine might.

"This fluctuation... a soul fluctuation at the Manifest Saint level!" the Golden Beast growled, its face full of disbelief. Was Yang Tian's soul body at the Manifest Saint level?

Many were alarmed. If his soul body truly was at the Manifest Saint level, then he was too terrifying.

"Get lost!" the Vermilion Bird roared, unleashing its kingly might. It manifested its true form, every feather clanging, a slight tremor sending down endless divine flames.

But Yang Xiao did not meet it head-on. A soul pressure that looked down upon all living beings suddenly pressed down on the Vermilion Bird's entire body, making its soul body tremble uncontrollably.

"Not good..." Zhuque's expression changed sharply, and without any hesitation, he immediately retreated.

The surrounding experts looked at each other in bewilderment. Could this person be so invincible that no one dared to approach?

"What a powerful soul treasure—could it be a supreme treasure?" Zhuque's eyes were unsettled. The brief fluctuation just now was clearly a warning.

If the hidden expert made a move, his soul body would surely suffer a devastating blow.

Many were uneasy. Ba Wujiang's eyes narrowed as the celestial dharma manifestation in the void dissipated, but Zhuque's retreat made him uncertain.

Given Zhuque's proud nature, he would not back down unless faced with a troublesome situation.

All these people had ulterior motives, and none wanted to rush forward. Besides, Yang Tian's chance to claim the divine object was not that great.

After nearly the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Yang Tian's brows were tightly furrowed. The divine might, though lacking in intelligence, was not easily persuaded to leave.

"Try using the War Heaven Art; it might work." Just then, Yan Long's voice sounded.

Hearing this, Yang Tian's brows lifted. He couldn't fathom the use of the War Heaven Art, but since Yan Long suggested it, there might be some reason.

In the Ninth Heaven, the sky that had just calmed was now filled with a murderous aura. Divine sounds resounded through heaven and earth, each note brimming with powerful battle intent.

"What is he doing?" Someone was utterly puzzled as the man sat cross-legged in the void, chanting scriptures.

The roar of war chariots began to echo across the sky, and scenes of thousands of troops charging into battle emerged in the void. Each note transformed into ancient war characters, manifesting in the air.

"A supreme scripture... This is definitely a supreme scripture!" Someone shouted, eyes reddening. Just reciting the scripture could manifest such terrifying phenomena—the scripture's level was unimaginable.

Eyes turned red, even purple. This human had mastered a supreme scripture and was now flaunting it by chanting loudly. Was he showing off?

Just as the surrounding figures were going mad, the floating divine object trembled slightly, emitting a joyful thought. The surrounding aura was exactly the same as when it had first encountered the one who enlightened it.

Back then, its intelligence had not yet awakened. The white-robed supreme had chanted scriptures here, helping it open its spiritual nature. The innate divine object had never forgotten this.

"It worked..." Yang Tian rejoiced inwardly. He reached out his hand, conveying the thought for the innate divine object to follow him, free to leave later at will. He also mentioned that he had enlightenment divine flowers to help it cultivate a spiritual body and perfect its path, requiring very little time.

Innate divine objects differ from other treasures; they are born from heaven and earth. The Sun Yang Divine Stone had gestated for a full million years, making it a flawless divine object.

With Yang Tian's strength, trying to activate the divine object was a pipe dream. Forcibly using an innate divine object would most likely drain his essence blood or cause backlash.

Only the strongest cultivators could wield such a heavenly treasure, as its intelligence was incomplete. Just like when Yang Tian obtained the Divine Dragon Soul-Calming Jade—if not for the Ancestral Dragon Ring, his essence blood would have been drained...!

Under countless stunned and incredulous gazes, the divine object appeared in Yang Tian's hand and then vanished instantly...

"Ouch!" It was a scream like a pig being slaughtered. The Golden Beast felt incredulous, rubbing its eyes vigorously.

Rumble! The surrounding figures moved frantically. Who still cared about mutual wariness? They charged over like madmen.

Overjoyed, Yang Tian activated the formation disk directly, stepping into it to cross the void.

"Stay!" The Three-Eyed Saint Son shouted, his holy eye emitting a boundless divine light, locking onto the void trajectory and piercing the passage.

"Damn it..." Yang Tian's face darkened. Glancing back at the frenzied experts, he couldn't help wiping cold sweat. These people had gone mad.

They had guarded the divine object bitterly for half a month, each treating it as their own treasure. Now a human had taken it away...

How could they bear it?

In the hazy world, a splendid scroll unfurled: green peaks and emerald valleys, heaven and earth nurturing spiritual energy, colorful divine radiance shimmering faintly.

The great river surged, waterfalls hung like silver ribbons from the void. In the distance, auspicious beasts flew across the sky, as if a celestial realm had emerged. This world had completely transformed, arriving in another great era.

"What's going on?!" The Three-Eyed Saint Son's vertical eye narrowed. This was too abnormal, utterly inconceivable.

The group erupted into chaos. Arriving in another world—such means were too terrifying.

"Splendid Mountains and Rivers..." Yang Tian was stunned. He had just thought of this supreme treasure, and now it had materialized so quickly.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and leave..." Just as Yang Tian was in a daze, a gentle voice, tinged with many complex emotions, sounded in his ear.
