Shrouding the Heavens

Chapter 314 - 315 Chapter 320 The Weapon Interwoven of Dao and Reason

315: Chapter 320: The Weapon Interwoven of Dao and Reason 315: Chapter 320: The Weapon Interwoven of Dao and Reason All of this happened in a flash.

Ye Fan had taken a risk to fight and kill the two powerful enemies.

He had intended to hone himself against the top ten experts, but only if his life was not threatened.

The situation moments ago had been unfavorable, and he had been forced to use all his means.

BUZZ.

The Vajra flew over.

Its form was radiant, adorned with natural Dao Glyphs, as if carrying the divine might of the heavens, making the very ground tremble with its power.

Ye Fan’s heart and spirit stirred; he wanted to test just how hard this Vajra was.

He offered up the Origin Qi Cauldron above his head.

This was a holy divine relic; although it had not yet woven its ‘Dao’ and ‘Principle,’ it was indestructible and impossible to shatter.

CLANG!

When the two collided, the reddish-brown earth roared.

Sand and stone, like a torrential flood, swept in all directions.

Between them, the earth seemed to transform into a vast ocean, with layers of sand and soil surging like colossal waves.

The void rippled like a scroll being vigorously shaken, causing this part of the world to quake violently.

The Vajra was truly terrifying, possessing tremendous power.

Even the Origin Qi Cauldron could not shatter it.

Ye Fan was shocked.

Could it really be that divine artifact from the other side of the starry sky?

SWOOSH.

He transformed into a shadowy figure and vanished from his spot, retreating hundreds of meters.

The Origin Qi Cauldron flew over to hover above his head.

BOOM!

The Vajra charged over as well, possessing the power to split mountains and cleave the sky.

It caused the ground beneath Ye Fan to collapse and sent him flying.

After this strike, the expert from Flickering Light finally stopped.

Holding the gleaming treasure, he stared coldly at Ye Fan and said, “We underestimated you.

For an Ancient Desolation Sacred Body of the Fourth Layer Heaven to possess such combat power, to kill our Flickering Light experts…” Ye Fan responded, “The ‘Ye with ten lives’—you ten came into this world for me.

If you want to kill me, you must be prepared to be killed.” Yang Yi’s expression turned grim as he held the Vajra.

“‘One Ye with ten lives’—such arrogance!

Thinking you can kill the ten of us alone?

Do you think this is before the Ancient Desolation?!” Ye Fan replied calmly, “Whether before the Ancient Desolation or now, it’s all the same to me.

I’ve already slain five.

Are the remaining five far off?” Yang Yi was somewhat shocked.

“What?

You’ve actually killed five of us?

Does that mean Gu Litian wasn’t the only one killed before we arrived?” “Correct.

Three had already been killed by then.

You will be the sixth.” “Truly beyond my expectations.

Although the Ancient Desolation Sacred Body has declined, it still possesses extraordinary aspects.” Yang Yi’s expression grew colder.

Ye Fan said, “I have a question I’d like to ask you.” “What is it?” Yang Yi asked coldly.

“Where did you get your Vajra?

Does it have any particular origin?” Ye Fan stared at him.

“Why do you ask?” Yang Yi stood there, the Vajra in his hand shimmering with a dreamlike radiance.

Ye Fan said, “Just curious.

This kind of weapon is rare in this world.

Today is the first time I’ve encountered one, and even my cauldron couldn’t crush it.” HMPH.

Yang Yi snorted coldly, mocking, “Don’t think that having a holy divine relic means you can overcome all weapons in the world.

Before weaving your own worldly patterns, even Origin Qi is nothing special.” The blood-red sunset completely disappeared.

Night descended, and stars dotted the sky.

The night wind blew across the scarred land, making a wailing sound.

“So your Vajra really has quite an origin?” Ye Fan asked.

“Naturally.

It is the secret treasure of my Ancestor Master, specially bestowed upon me to come out and capture you!” Yang Yi’s voice was cold.

Could this Vajra be the treasure of an Ancestor Master-level figure?!

Ye Fan was stirred.

Indeed, Flickering Light Sacred Land is not peaceful.

With the disappearance of the Saint Heir, all factions want their disciples to advance further, not hesitating to bestow mighty treasures.

“This is one of the important artifacts of Flickering Light, forged from the peak weapon, the Dragon Cauldron, with Daluo Silver Essence.” Ye Fan’s heart skipped a beat.

What is Daluo Silver Essence?

It is definitely an excellent material for refining Vessels, loved by all Sacred Lords, solid and imperishable.

In the past, when I saw Daoist Crow in the Flame Region, the Mutton Fat Jade Divine Iron he used for refining Vessels was of the same tier as Daluo Silver Essence and just as precious.

This Vajra, not much larger than a bracelet, meant its material consumption was limited, yet it was still incredibly extravagant.

Such excellent material is rarely seen in the world.

“So your Ancestor Master must be quite a notable figure.” What Ye Fan was most concerned about was that this item was refined in the peak weapon, the Dragon Cauldron, and was not the Vajra from the other side of the starry sky.

Upon reflection, that made sense.

How could such coincidences keep happening?

It was impossible to always hear news related to the Pre-Qin Qi Refiners.

Besides, if it were the Vajra from ancient times, from the other side of the starry sky, its power would be unrivaled, capable of shaking the heavens and shattering the earth.

Such a Supreme Weapon could not fall into the hands of a disciple merely at the Four Extremes secret boundary.

However, Ye Fan was still intrigued.

Since this was a weapon refined from the peak weapon, the Dragon Cauldron, it must be a significant treasure even in Flickering Light Sacred Land.

“I’ve heard that Flickering Light’s peak weapon, the Dragon Cauldron, rarely appears because it’s suppressing their so-called ‘foundation’.

What exactly is that?” Yang Yi snorted heavily.

“You certainly know quite a bit!” If Ye Fan was most curious about any peak weapon, it was undoubtedly the Dragon Cauldron.

This wasn’t just because Flickering Light had made the same choice as him—casting a cauldron as their weapon.

It was also because Flickering Light had never produced a Great Emperor, yet had successfully forged a peak weapon—a definite anomaly.

From ancient times to the present, this was the only such instance in the world: no Great Emperor had appeared, yet a peak weapon was forged.

No one else had managed to replicate this miracle.

However, it couldn’t be said that this was merely Flickering Light’s luck; it was still a testament to their strength.

Before the Ancient Desolation, although their lineage had produced no Great Emperors, it had consecutively brought forth twenty-eight Sacred Sages.

During that period, each generation saw the birth of extraordinary individuals.

These twenty-eight Sacred Sages followed one after another.

As each old sage passed, a new one would take their place.

They dedicated fifty thousand long years to consecrating the sacred material—Dragon Pattern Black Gold.

This was the result of the combined efforts of twenty-eight Sacred Sages and countless Sacred Lords and Grand Elders.

Before passing away, each old sage would engrave their lifetime of insights as Dao Glyphs and brand them into the Dragon Cauldron.

For over fifty thousand years, before it became an Extreme Dao Holy Weapon, the Dragon Pattern Black Gold rested atop the Flickering Light Sacred Mountain and was never moved.

It endured wind, rain, thunder, and lightning; absorbed Sun and Moon Essence and All Heavens Star Power; and was imprinted with the heavenly rhythms of the Dao.

During this period, countless disciples prayed and worshipped before it.

Then, on a stormy night filled with lightning and thunder, it finally intertwined with the ultimate principles of heaven and earth, transforming into a peak weapon and becoming a supreme treasure of the Eastern Wastelands.

This also illustrated, from another perspective, just how terrifying an Extreme Dao Holy Weapon is: it cannot be forged without a Great Emperor.

Flickering Light was merely the sole exception.

Twenty-eight Ancient Sages poured their heart and soul into it; countless Sacred Lords, Elders, and disciples expended their youth; using the full power of their Sacred Land for fifty thousand years, they finally consecrated—the Dragon Cauldron.

Suddenly, Ye Fan felt an immense sense of danger.

A very ominous premonition surfaced in his heart.

He transformed into a flash of lightning and retreated swiftly, desperate to evade.

Yang Yi smirked coldly.

He had been happy to stall for time, allowing him to imbue the Vajra with divine energy.

“It’s too late!

You should never have given me so much time to prepare.

You want to hear the secrets of Flickering Light?

No problem.

I can continue telling you—provided you live long enough to hear them!” BOOM!

He raised his hand and hurled the gleaming Ring-shaped Jade.

It transformed into a silver lightning bolt, seemingly capable of shattering heaven and earth.

The silver light was dazzling and rumbled loudly, violently shaking the black sky as if it would dislodge all the stars.

The crimson earth below was instantly shattered, the destruction continuously spreading and collapsing as shattered stones pierced the sky.

The Vajra pursued Ye Fan, growing as large as a Grinding Disc.

While not excessively huge, it was terrifyingly imposing, possessing incomparable power.

CLANG!

Silver light, dazzling as snow, erupted as the Vajra descended, striking the Origin Qi Cauldron with a deafening roar!

The earth collapsed, surging like a violent ocean!

Countless huge rocks and endless tons of sand were blasted a thousand meters into the sky, a scene resembling the apocalypse.

Under this earth-shattering strike, Ye Fan was knocked back three or four miles.

The Origin Qi Cauldron above his head hummed and buzzed violently, and his own qi and blood churned within him.

This weapon is too terrifying!

It must be something that has intertwined its own ‘Dao’ and ‘Principle’!

Ye Fan shivered internally.

Moreover, realizing this Vajra was forged from Daluo Silver Essence and had emerged from a peak weapon made him even more uneasy.

BOOM!

An earth-shattering crash!

The second strike arrived.

Within a radius of thousands of meters, furious shockwaves blasted all earth and stone into the sky, where they turned to ash.

On the ground, a bottomless pit, thousands of meters wide, appeared.

It was pitch-black and utterly terrifying.

A single strike of such terrifying might…

Ye Fan gasped.

It was truly enough to make one shudder.

Ye Fan’s cauldron was instantly sent flying into the sky, separated from him.

It was flung by an unparalleled Holy Power that he could not control at all.

At this moment, he realized the gravity of the situation.

The terror of the Vajra far exceeded his expectations.

The All Secret, one of the Nine Secrets, triggered, increasing his speed tenfold!

He dodged the third strike and rushed into the sky.

Finally, just as the Vajra was about to catch up, he managed to regain control of the cauldron.

This won’t work…

He wielded the God-beating Whip, striking towards the snow-white silver light in the sky.

CLANG!

An earth-shattering sound reverberated, making his eardrums feel as if they would split.

His arms went numb from the Vajra’s overwhelming power.

Its material was too special; even the God-beating Whip could not shatter it.

It really makes one wonder if this is the Vajra from the other side of the starry sky…

Ye Fan was once again blasted several miles away.

With such terrifying divine might, slaying cultivators at the First Layer Heaven of Four Extremes would be effortless.

If it weren’t for Ye Fan’s unique physique, that last strike wouldn’t have just numbed his arm—it would have completely shattered it.

He hurriedly checked the God-beating Whip, fearing it might be damaged.

Thankfully, it remained simple and unadorned, showing no signs of damage.

Damn it!

Did your Ancestor Master mistake me for some Sacred Land’s Saint Heir, giving you such a terrifying weapon?!

Ye Fan was filled with resentment.

Yang Yi ignored him and once again activated the Vajra, which released a dazzling silver light as it struck down.

BOOM!

The earth shattered once again!

Stones pierced the sky.

Within a radius of thousands of meters, the land was turned into a desolate waste, with a pit so deep it seemed bottomless!
