Chapter 439: The Saboteur
The breakthrough came without warning.
A change occurred in Pang Jian's spiritual sea as the honey-like soul essence within the beehive nurtured and tempered his divine soul.
His spiritual sea swelled with waves, and a massive whirlpool appeared at its center.
The whirlpool swirled and twisted, repeatedly refining the spiritual power within Pang Jian's spiritual sea as if subjecting them to cycles of intense purification.
A fist-sized green stone soon took form.
At that moment, Pang Jian experienced an epiphany.
In his mind's eye, he could almost see how spirit veins formed spirit stones, spirit jades, and spirit crystals.
Spirit veins accumulated and refined the spiritual qi of heaven and earth through underground networks, gradually infusing the surrounding rocks with abundant spiritual power.
These rocks, enriched with dense spiritual power, first transformed into spirit stones, then into spirit jades, and finally into spirit crystals.
A similar phenomenon was now occurring within his spirit sea.
Pang Jian could see the whirlpool refining the spiritual power in his spiritual sea over several cycles, triggering a qualitative transformation that solidified his spiritual power into a green stone.
The mist-like spiritual qi condensed into his spiritual sea before turning into stone.
Gas, liquid, solid—these transformations aligned with breakthroughs in cultivation realms.
After reflecting on this discovery, Pang Jian retrieved spirit jades and spirit stones from his spatial bracelet and placed them around his body.
He then absorbed the surrounding spiritual qi with the Qi Nurturing Divine Cauldron Art, while simultaneously drawing on the rich spiritual power within the spirit jades and spirit stones.
His spiritual sea slowly shrunk.
The whirlpool at the center of Pang Jian's spiritual sea continuously devoured his spiritual power, causing the green stone to grow larger and larger.
Pang Jian keenly sensed that the spiritual power within the green stone was incredibly pure and refined.
It was at least ten times purer and more potent than the spiritual power in his spiritual sea.
Before long, the green stone at the whirlpool's base had grown to the size of a millstone.
The whirlpool at the center of his spiritual sea continued to spin and consume spiritual power, and the green stone kept growing with it.
The Profound Abode Realm, the Spirit Condensation Realm, and the Soul Wandering Realm all focused on the tempering of one's divine soul.
The Nirvana Realm, on the other hand, marked a transformation in one's spiritual sea!
Energized at this realization, Pang Jian turned his attention to his divine soul.
As part of advancing through the stages of the Soul Wandering Realm, Pang Jian's divine soul had endured harsh astral winds, scorching flames, and immersion in magma. These repeated temperings left behind impurities and hidden injuries on his divine soul.
The honey-like soul essence from the Nether Abyss Spirit Bees was now cleansing his divine soul, healing these hidden injuries and washing away any lingering impurities.
Throughout this process, he experienced a refreshing clarity of mind and an unprecedented sense of enlightenment.
Even his intelligence seemed to improve.
This unexpected breakthrough is the natural culmination of my progress.
His persistent efforts in tempering his divine soul had allowed him to reach the peak of the Soul Wandering Realm. This drove the remarkable transformation of his spiritual sea, propelling him toward the Nirvana Realm.
As time passed, Pang Jian's spiritual sea eventually shrunk to one-fifth of its original size.
The massive green stone at the base of the whirlpool had since grown to the size of a tiny fragmented land.
"Curse you! You only ascended to the True God Realm through the Dao of Metal before me through sheer luck!
"You were never superior to me!
"Once I ascend to the rank of a Fey God, I'll be able to kill you, Fan Ao, three times over!
"The heavens are unjust for allowing you to monopolize this Heavenly Dao for so long!" Long Zhan cried.
"Hasn't the ancient Thunder Dragon of your Dragon Race occupied the Dao of Lightning for tens of thousands of years?" Fan Ao scoffed. "I've only occupied the Dao of Metal for three thousand years. How does that count as monopolizing?"
Nearly a hundred rays of golden divine light, imbued with the sharp Dao of Metal, shot out from the golden platform beneath Fan Ao.
"Gold, iron, copper, silver!" Fan Ao shouted.
The divine light transformed into chains of gold, iron, copper, and silver, akin to the mineral veins found within the landmasses of the Abyss.
Infused with the profound mysteries of the Dao of Metal, these chains of gold, silver, copper, and irons locked onto Long Zhan as he attempted to flee once more, trapping him within a cage.
"Fan Ao! Even in death, I refuse to submit to you!" the Five-Clawed Gold Dragon roared madly.
His golden scales split apart one by one, and his blood rained down like torrential rain.
Boom!
A towering figure clad in silver armor suddenly appeared.
His equally imposing Divine Dharma Idol grasped the cage formed from the chains and tore it apart.
"A True God!"
Long Zhan did not hesitate to flee from the shattered cage, repeatedly unleashing the Dragon Race's blood escape technique without pause, hoping to put as much distance between himself and Fan Ao as possible.
He had no idea what had transpired in the outside world that would cause a True God of the human race to conceal their identity and rescue him from Fan Ao's relentless pursuit.
Regardless, he knew he had to seize this opportunity to cling to survival.
As long as the newly arrived True God could stall Fan Ao for a while, Long Zhan could use the Dragon Race's blood escape technique to leave the range of Fan Ao's perception.
The bizarre mist was vast and boundless. Finding him again would be like searching for a needle in a haystack once he was out of range.
***
After his pursuit was thwarted, Fan Ao knew it was no longer possible to lock onto Long Zhan.
"I never expected one of my own to prevent me from killing Long Zhan." Fan Ao looked at the silently departing man. "Why?"
He knew that man was one of the True Gods.
There were only fifteen True Gods, and he had seen each of them countless times during their councils through the Stargazing Platform's white jade pillars.
However, despite probing several times, he could not discern the man's identity.
The technique the other party employed, the aura of his divine soul, and the nature of their divine power all felt unfamiliar. It was clear the other party was deliberately concealing their identity.
Whoosh!
The man clad in silver armor vanished, leaving only a piece of yellow parchment drifting in the bizarre mist.
Fan Ao swiftly withdrew his Divine Dharma Idol and reverted to his original appearance on the golden platform.
Shifting from a standing posture to a seated one, he sucked the yellow parchment into his palm and lowered his head to examine it closely.
"So, the Dragon Lair Sect aims to use my death and Long Zhan's ascension to Fey God as a bargaining chip for securing an alliance."
