Chapter 851 - 793: The Unrestrained Brush (Seeking Yue Tickets)

Chapter 851: Chapter 793: The Unrestrained Brush (Seeking Yue Tickets)

Taiwei Star Alliance, Three Platforms Realm.

In the Lotus Platform Small World, after spending more than thirty days and nights, Jiang Yuebai finally imprinted her Divine Sense on the Unrestrained Brush, successfully completing the sacrificial refining.

At that moment, the tip of the Unrestrained Brush spewed out a large amount of ink, like tears bursting forth. And with a thought, the tortoise seals on Jiang Yuebai’s forehead, back, and throughout the Lotus Platform Small World vanished.

Rustle rustle~

The Old Rong Tree, without wind, began shaking its pristine leaves, merrily.

Jixiang covered its mouth and ran to the lakeside, twirling to catch its reflection, finding itself once again covered in clean white fur, happily squeaking.

Hongye cautiously led out two Fat Grass Dragons from hiding, squinting vigilantly at the surroundings.

Two Dragonfly Little Demons emerged from the flower basket, examining each other’s wings, crying tears of joy.

Yann Hongyu held the Flower-Furred Rat, followed by eight Mouse and the Long-Haired Water Ghost, all emerging from underground caves, watching the Thunder Beast Lieque leaping ecstatically into the sea.

"Finally, no more torment from that pen, so wonderful~~~"

Yann Hongyu sang out a long tune, falling to the ground, clutching a handkerchief as she cried with joy, knowing all too well the heartache and misery of being drawn a tortoise-face wherever she hid.

The whole Lotus Platform Small World was filled with Hongyu crying, Hongye shouting, monkeys jumping, swarm buzzing.

Clearing clouds to see the sun, raising brows in vindication!

The dark days were finally over!

Jiang Yuebai withdrew the Heaven Suppressing Seal, grabbing the surrendered Unrestrained Brush in hand, listening to the noisy commotion all around, shaking her head and sighing.

"Look at what you’ve done to everyone during this time?"

The Unrestrained Brush’s tip bent disdainfully, looking very dissatisfied and unimpressed.

"Alright, now let me see just how capable you are."

Jiang Yuebai gripped the Unrestrained Brush, channeling her Spiritual Energy into it, only to find that the inside of the Unrestrained Brush was like a bottomless pit; even pouring in a tenth of her Spiritual Energy produced not a ripple.

The Unrestrained Brush’s tip bent again, looking very indifferent and pleased with itself.

Recalling the Heaven Suppressing Seal’s liking for Chaos Qi, Jiang Yuebai bypassed the trial process, directly channeling Chaos Qi from within.

The Unrestrained Brush shivered in Jiang Yuebai’s palm; the previous Spiritual Energy was like clear water, but now the Chaos Qi was as intense as strong liquor, immediately intoxicating the brush, its once sturdy tip becoming soft and compliant, seeping a large amount of special ink, dripping steadily.

Taking the opportunity, Jiang Yuebai swung the brush. Ink dyed the clear sky, and droplets of concentrated ink morphed into small tortoises, writhing in midair.

Tortoises crawling the skies, Jiang Yuebai’s mouth twitched, "What is this, what is all this!"

With a bit of thought, Jiang Yuebai lifted the brush again.

With powerful strokes, she painted the cosmos, writing history in lively script!

She drew a Fire Bomb Talisman in the air, the talisman being one of the most commonly painted symbols by Qi Cultivation cultivators, typically requiring talismanic paper to activate and launch a fire bomb.

During the drawing process, Jiang Yuebai felt the Chaos Qi within her, dancing along with the ink from the brush tip, being forcibly and substantially drained. It was merely a simple rune, yet it consumed so much energy.

Jiang Yuebai persevered to complete the rune; as soon as the Fire Bomb Talisman succeeded, the atmosphere vibrated, with wild wind ripping, surrounding Spiritual Energy being crazily absorbed by the inky rune in midair, making the rune radiant and spectacular.

Boom! Boom boom!

Fire bombs continually discharged from the rune, fiercely bombarding deep within the forest, instantly blasting out several pits over ten feet deep, exceeding the original fire bomb technique’s power by tenfold.

Moreover, the airborne Fire Bomb Talisman showed no sign of diminishing, still continually extracting surrounding Spiritual Energy, with the fire bombs growing increasingly powerful.

"Is this a Small Divine Power?"

Jiang Yuebai’s eyes shook; just as she intended to investigate further, the rune in midair seemed unable to withstand the mad influx of nature’s spiritual energy, shattering from within.

Boom!

The shockwave swept across, ink flying chaotically, Jiang Yuebai raised her sleeve to shield her face.

When she lowered her sleeve, she realized her white garments were covered in ink dots, which upon spreading once again morphed into tortoise seals of varying sizes.

Jiang Yuebai: ......

Not much damage but immense insult!

Jiang Yuebai let out a long breath, continuing to experiment various attempts with the Unrestrained Brush.

After a tumultuous half-day, the entire forest was nearly razed to the ground, potholes scattered everywhere, with fire, ice, electric arcs splattering, fragments strewn across.

Jiang Yuebai, covered in tortoise ink marks, slumped to the ground, dark circles under her eyes, looking weary.

She tossed the ’drunken’ Unrestrained Brush aside, finally understanding that this brush, truly in the Fang Family’s hands, might have demonstrated greater ability.

But after so many years, it hasn’t been taken away by the Fengg Family, surely because activating it requires consuming a massive amount of Chaos Qi.

If it weren’t for her having picked up the "Three Realms Ancient Artifact", she wouldn’t have known that the Unrestrained Brush and the Heaven Suppressing Seal might very well be Chaos Ancient Treasures from ancient times.

Generally, the power of ancient treasures is comparable to current spiritual artifacts; for example, an ancient treasure like the Condensing Light Mirror, if used well, can reach the power of a top-grade spiritual artifact.

During ancient times, Chaos Qi had not completely dissipated, making Chaos Ancient Treasures the pinnacle power among ancient treasures.

This brush can independently absorb surrounding spiritual energy to replenish consumption, whether in talisman painting or drawing like a sketch. As long as there’s sufficient spiritual energy, the drawn item won’t disappear on its own, can persist indefinitely, and its power might even grow stronger.

But there’s one issue; the runes she currently mastered cannot withstand too much of Heaven and Earth’s Power. Right now, she doesn’t have that much Chaos Qi to paint very strong or complex runes.

Even the simple runes at the Qi Cultivation Stage require quite a bit of Chaos Qi to be consumed.

Jiang Yuebai speculates that to maximize the potential of the Unrestrained Brush, she must learn ancient runes from ancient times. These runes are not Ancient Cloud Seal Characters and are even older than Turtle Shell Script, with fewer and simpler strokes, which she has only seen mentioned in some books.

People from ancient times referred to them as ’Great Dao Erosion Text,’ the earliest characters between heaven and earth, capable of bearing the supreme principles of the Great Dao and Heavenly Dao Laws.

Much like the erosion between now and the Dao Fruit, contemplating Great Dao Erosion Text will gradually subject one to the erosions of the supreme principles and Great Dao Rules they represent, affecting the direction of one’s cultivation.

The Great Dao Erosion Text consists of twenty-eight characters. The later Turtle Shell Script of the Human Clan, Cloud Seal Characters, up to today’s Simplified Characters and runes, all evolved from these twenty-eight characters.

Even the Demon Clan and Demon Clan’s text bear shadows of these twenty-eight Great Dao Erosion Text.

Unfortunately, the most original twenty-eight characters are nearly lost; perhaps there are still records in the Observatory, but Jiang Yuebai currently has no way to go study.

Though she can’t maximize the brush’s capability at the moment, the brush itself has outstanding abilities.

For example, it is unfettered and loves freedom, able to disregard most defenses and arrays. This way, she can maneuver the brush to breach enemies’ defenses and arrays, drawing runes on them.

The runes don’t have to transform into Small Divine Power to always exist, as long as they can be silently painted on, exerting an instant effect, she’ll gain the winning opportunity.

Then there’s the Turtle Shell Array of the Five Mountains Immortal Sect, which she previously couldn’t break through. Now with the brush, perhaps she can charge in and paint turtles all over their faces, thereby breaking the array from the inside.

Moreover, Jiang Yuebai discovered a special ability of the brush.

It can endlessly grow larger with the infusion of Chaos Qi; as long as she has enough Chaos Qi, she can make the brush grow into a Heaven Pillar and even perforate the heavens.

Previously when experimenting, she did transform the brush into a convenient long writing brush spear; although not as sharp as the Candle Dragon Spear, it can draw runes and paint turtles.

Additionally, the brush body cannot be smashed even by the Heaven Suppressing Seal; its hardness is sufficient to withstand most spiritual artifact attacks.

Thus Jiang Yuebai says that this brush might be more suitable in Fengg Zhuxin’s hands, whose weapon is a large brush resembling a spear.

With Chaos Qi within nearly exhausted, Jiang Yuebai rose to sit cross-legged in place.

Currently, the Lotus Platform has already fully integrated the fragments of the Heaven-Swallowing Cauldron from before, coupled with the power of Kunpeng Eye, it can independently absorb the energy between heaven and earth, converting it into Chaos Qi.

Jiang Yuebai’s main body absorbs Chaos Qi to recover, white hair trailing to the ground, quickly transforming into a White Vine Avatar, slightly filling the surrounding pits.

She practiced three hundred times her Spiritual Stone Edition Three Thousand Water Strike, practiced three hundred times the "Burning Thirteen Spears," and once the clone exhausted its energy, she sat down to study the two Jade Scrolls left by the Iron Palm Master.

Despite being on the run during this time, she hasn’t neglected cultivation and learning.

She discovered that the Fang Family’s Barbarian God Skill and Dragon God Transformation both cultivate Dharma, but Fang Family’s Barbarian God Dharma utilizes self’s blood energy, making the Dharma substantial like a flesh and blood body.

Before the Ninth Layer when the true transformation to a dragon occurs, the Dragon God Dharma remains illusory, with only light and shadow plus partial dragon might.

Having flesh, blood, and bones is surely stronger in power and defensive capability than just an apparition.

If she combines both, complementing each other, perhaps her current Fourth Layer Dragon God Transformation can materialize into a flesh Dharma.

When in action, a true Dragon Claw could crush enemies like the big stinky foot of the Fang Family’s Old Ancestor.

Moreover, Iron Palm Master’s cultivation insights on palm techniques also greatly benefited Jiang Yuebai.

Previously in the Iron Palm Realm, she obtained the three palm techniques Iron Palm Master left for Iron Palm Sect, the weightless "Vajra Demon Suppressing Power," the blood-sucking venomous "Blood Transformation Heart-Pushing Claw," and the agile "Golden Snake Sword Palm."

These three palm techniques are all passed on to Bai Jiuyou for learning; they also use the Great Derivation Scripture’s algorithms to combine them into one "New Golden Snake Sword Palm."

Jiang Yuebai’s strength isn’t as great as Bai Jiuyou’s, and after the bone of Chaos Devouring Heaven Python integrated into her body, her palms always come out soft, able to absorb spiritual energy of others, yet lacking power.

After going through Iron Palm Master’s insightful Jade Scroll, Jiang Yuebai has a new idea; perhaps she could create a Martial Arts Palm Technique suited for herself, one that can kill despite being soft.

Just as Jiang Yuebai was preparing to begin attempts, the puppet avatar outside suddenly sensed the earth vibrating, like galloping horses were approaching.

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

The Copper Bell at the workshop’s center was heavily rung.

This is... a Demon Clan attack!
