Chapter 812: Chapter 810: Four Symbols Divine Stone

"If that sword wall is placed here to accumulate energy, its Slaughter Sword Intent will experience a startling increase."

Xu Yang observed the Minor Immortal Realm for a while.

Lord Mobai continued to stare at the blood-red sword wall with a calm yet eerie gaze, as sword intents intersected and slaughterous energy surged. Xu Yang couldn’t guess Lord Mobai’s current condition either. After taking only a couple of glances, he quickly retracted his focus and dashed toward the depths of the White Tiger Area.

BOOM!

A deafening explosion suddenly rang out from the left, accompanied by the crashing of energy waves and the clashing of Divine Weapons. Xu Yang abruptly stopped in his tracks, then spun around and darted toward the source like a bolt of lightning.

"Golden Immortals fighting?"

Sensing the increasingly clear commotion, a look of excitement surfaced on his face. Soon, he spotted two figures engaged in a fierce battle. They were indeed two Golden Immortals, both at the Early Stage of Golden Immortal. They looked to be in their thirties or forties. At this age, they definitely couldn’t be the prodigies of major immortal sects.

Moments after Xu Yang arrived, the Golden Immortal expert in the crimson robe gained the upper hand, inflicting heavy injuries on his opponent with the momentum of a thunderbolt.

Seeing that he was about to be defeated and killed, the other Golden Immortal cultivator acted decisively. He crushed an unknown talisman, conjuring a thick shield over his body. It forcefully blocked the incoming strike, suffering only a few cracks without completely shattering. Seizing this opportunity, he didn’t hesitate to turn around and flee.

And the direction he fled was exactly where Xu Yang was hiding.

A fleeing Golden Immortal expert covered the distance in an instant. Xu Yang didn’t even have a chance to dodge. Then again, he hadn’t planned on dodging in the first place.

As the cultivator closed in and spotted Xu Yang, a look of astonishment flashed across his face. He hadn’t expected someone else to be hiding here.

"Middle Stage of Celestial Immortal?"

The Golden Immortal cultivator was momentarily stunned. But without any hesitation, keeping his cracked shield intact, he burst forth with a mass of immortal light. Like a ferocious beast, he charged straight at Xu Yang. With such terrifying might, let alone someone at the Middle Stage of Celestial Immortal, even an expert at the Peak of Celestial Immortal would be smashed to pieces by this collision.

Xu Yang’s expression didn’t change. His bones vibrated, his immortal energy surged, and he charged forward like an equally enraged beast.

"You’re courting death."

Seeing this, a ferocious sneer twisted the Golden Immortal cultivator’s face. He felt a bit weird inside. "Is this kid crazy?" he wondered. But at this critical juncture, he couldn’t afford to overthink it. "How strong can he possibly be?" he thought.

BANG!

The moment they collided, it was as if two massive boulders had smashed together. A thunderous explosion rang out, sending shockwaves soaring into the sky and rampaging in all directions. The surrounding boulders and ancient trees were completely pulverized by the escaping energy.

"ARGH!"

The Golden Immortal cultivator was struck as if by lightning. The shield around his body shattered completely. His physical body felt like it had been violently slammed by a massive millstone; his skin cracked open, blood splattered, and his bones and tendons groaned before fracturing. The astonishing force plunged his consciousness into a momentary daze.

While the man was sent flying backward through the air, Xu Yang took a single step, moving like a flash of lightning. He swung his massive fist, smashing it straight through his opponent’s chest. The fierce, domineering force raged like a burning river, violently tearing the upper half of the man’s torso to shreds.

His miserable shrieks came to an abrupt halt. His mangled half-corpse plummeted to the ground, still twitching uncontrollably.

The moment Xu Yang landed, he casually swept up the Golden Immortal cultivator’s Storage Ring and looked up at the other man.

The crimson-robed Golden Immortal stood utterly dumbfounded, his eyes wide and bulging as if he had just seen a ghost. Witnessing a Middle Stage of Celestial Immortal instantly slaughter a Golden Immortal as easily as killing a chicken felt like a thunderbolt striking his brain. Even though that Golden Immortal had been severely injured, he was still not someone anyone in the Celestial Immortal Realm could mess with!

"The Four Symbols Divine Stone."

Xu Yang’s pupils constricted. Only now did he notice that in a crater beside the crimson-robed cultivator, a thick cloud of demonic fiend energy lingered. It was brimming with murderous intent. As it writhed, the ferocious phantoms of four ancient beasts—the Cyan Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise—could faintly be seen opening their bloody maws in silent roars.

The astonishing murderous aura caused Xu Yang’s mind to tremble. Through the demonic energy, one could see a fist-sized, oval-shaped stone. It was pitch-black as ink, with the crests of the four beasts branded on its surface.

To be precise, it should be called the Four Symbols Demonic Stone. Every Four Symbols item here had been corrupted and demonized by the local fiend energy. To absorb the Four Symbols energy within it, one first had to withstand the intense corruption of the demonic aura, or use special methods to purify it. However, even so, it was still an incredibly precious treasure—whether here or out in the outside world—and it would be highly beneficial to Golden Immortals.

The two Golden Immortals had obviously been fighting to the death over this Four Symbols Divine Stone.

"Kid, who are you?" The Golden Immortal cultivator suddenly snapped back to his senses, forcefully suppressing his shock as he glared at Xu Yang.

Xu Yang tore his gaze away from the Four Symbols Divine Stone and grinned. "I’m taking this Four Symbols Divine Stone."

"Arrogant!"

The crimson-robed Golden Immortal flew into a rage. With a sweep of his sleeve, he raised the golden short sword in his hand, which instantly transformed into a golden thunderbolt that pierced through the sky, incredibly fierce and sharp.

Xu Yang neither dodged nor evaded; instead, he met the attack with a punch.

CLANG!

His body trembled, and a bloody scratch was left on the surface of his fist. On the other hand, the golden sword was knocked back, its surface sword aura completely shattered by the force of the punch.

"How is this possible?" The crimson-robed Golden Immortal’s eyes bulged. This was a head-on clash! Yet...

Suddenly, a fierce wind assaulted him, freezing and violent.

SWISH!

A dense barrage of saber light surged toward him, blotting out the sky. The crimson-robed Golden Immortal felt a chill run through his entire body. His hair stood on end as a sense of deadly crisis engulfed him. With no time to think, he let out a furious, low roar and sprang forward with his sword.

BOOM!

CLANG CLANG CLANG!

Sparks flew wildly amidst a series of explosive clashes. The golden short sword trembled continuously under the fierce impact, its light dimming.

The Daluo Saber was unparalleled in its ferocity. It stirred up a majestic saber momentum that felt like a raging storm, crushing the spirit. The crimson-robed cultivator was forced into a miserable retreat, constantly parrying without a single chance to counterattack.

"Damn it, who exactly is this kid? How can he be this strong?" he cursed inwardly. The ability to fight across several minor realms was simply unimaginable to him.

BANG!

Xu Yang violently pressed his advance. The Daluo Saber erupted with a resounding clang, its saber light multiplying rapidly with the intensity of a torrential tempest. In an instant, the crimson-robed cultivator let out an agonized howl.

SPLURT!

He coughed up a mouthful of blood as the webbing between his thumbs and forefingers tore apart, and a crisp CRACK echoed from his arm.

"Stop!

"Kid, the Four Symbols Divine Stone is yours!"

Unable to hold on any longer, the crimson-robed cultivator wanted to flee. But Xu Yang acted as if he hadn’t heard a thing, refusing to give him a single chance.

The saber momentum suddenly transformed mid-air, shifting from a raging storm into a perfectly straight bolt of lightning. The profound essence of the wind and rain was entirely condensed and accumulated, erupting explosively just as it reached the crimson-robed cultivator’s face.

The crimson-robed cultivator’s eyes practically split open in terror. In his haste, he desperately raised his sword to block.

BANG!

The short sword was sent flying. The crimson-robed cultivator plummeted with a miserable shriek, a bloody gash torn across one side of his chest, so deep his internal organs were visible. Just as he tumbled and prepared to flee, a golden streak of immortal light shot out, piercing straight through the center of his forehead.

It was none other than one of the Golden Immortal Talismans Xu Yang had previously obtained. These talismans were already becoming somewhat useless to him now. If he waited any longer, they would completely lose their effectiveness. It was better to use them now, just in case the crimson-robed cultivator had any hidden tricks up his sleeve. Of the three Golden Immortal Talismans, only one defensive talisman remained.

Xu Yang strode up to the crimson-robed cultivator and flicked his sleeve, sweeping up the Storage Ring. At the same time, he gained a clear understanding of his own strength. Although these two Early Stage Golden Immortals weren’t particularly strong, they were undoubtedly genuine Golden Immortals. Killing them wasn’t very difficult. Moreover, he hadn’t even used all of his trump cards yet.

The leap in strength from the Early Stage of Celestial Immortal to the Middle Stage of Celestial Immortal was undeniably massive.

Xu Yang smiled faintly, then turned and walked toward the Four Symbols Divine Stone.

SWISH SWISH SWISH!

The wind howled like arrows piercing through the air, tearing through the forest and kicking up a wave of dust and demonic fiend energy. Xu Yang paused his steps and looked up. He saw three figures speeding over like lightning.

A dense, flood-like pressure of the Golden Immortal level, carrying a fierce and violent intent, instantly overflowed the area.
