Zhao Yang picked up the ice blade from the ground and severed the sheep's head.
Qin Lei would never understand what had happened, but he knew that it was a method of cultivation that could turn a person into a powerless sheep, regardless of their cultivation level. Such a method was something he had never even imagined. No wonder Zhao Yang sought a secluded place for their duel; he simply wanted to keep his cultivation method a secret.
After dealing with Qin Lei, Zhao Yang calmly took out the treasure map from his pocket and began to compare it with his current location.
"This is it. The leaves on the scroll fly north, but the incense smoke drifts south. Looking at the direction of its collapse, the stone path is flanked by cliffs, and beside the cliffs is a well. However, there is no well here, which means this is an 'open' character; it must be here." Zhao Yang quickly analyzed and concluded, pointing at a section of the cliff. He was not in a hurry to seize the Jade Crawler's inner core because he had already guessed that the higher-ups of the Myriad Spirit Sect had likely arrived. The Inner Courtyard was filled with countless experts; even if he caught the Jade Crawler, it might not belong to him. A Perfect Foundation cultivator was rarely seen in a millennium. He possessed the Chaotic Root that suppressed all Spiritual Roots and had Sun Wukong's Seventy-Third Transformation. There was no need to expose himself for something so elusive, which would only invite envy and trouble.
With this thought, Zhao Yang stopped hesitating and took out the Stone Hammer, striking it against the cliff.
With a loud rumble, the cliff trembled violently, and a crack suddenly appeared, slowly spreading outward from where the hammer struck until it grew larger and formed a door covered in fine cracks. Zhao Yang lightly touched it with his fingertip, causing the cracked mountain door to collapse with a thunderous sound, sending dust flying. What came into view was a cave filled with azure mist.
Standing at the entrance, Zhao Yang could see clearly into the cave. It seemed ancient and desolate, as if no one had ever been there. Yet astonishingly, everything was spotless and looked brand new; the walls of the cave gleamed brightly with dazzling colors.
"Gold does not rust; jade does not gather dust. Such a large cave can't possibly be made entirely of jade..." Zhao Yang startled himself with his own thoughts. The Spirit Energy within was overwhelming; if everything were indeed made of warm jade, just how large must that original piece of warm jade have been? The essence within this green mountain must all be warm jade!
Suddenly, Zhao Yang's gaze fell upon a small, round piece of jade floating in mid-air. This jade was unique, surrounded by radiant light that obscured it from view when he first entered. Its color was much brighter than that of the surrounding jade walls; it resembled a drop of crystal-clear tear—flawless and perfect—and it seemed to possess awareness as it shifted slightly backward.
"Jade Essence? Conscious? Communicating? Spirit Pearl?" Zhao Yang swallowed hard as he spoke to himself, his eyes sparkling with fascination as he rubbed his hands together and reached out toward the Spirit Pearl.
The Spirit Pearl swiftly retreated, evading Zhao Yang's grasp. He was increasingly astonished and shaken but felt even more excitement. As he focused on where the Spirit Pearl had dodged to, he noticed that the entire jade cave resembled a swirling vortex filled with mysterious runes, with the center being where the Spirit Pearl had previously been located—as if all the jade spirits in this cave were converging there. Zhao Yang felt a chill run down his spine.
"Could it be that this Old Guy is actually a piece of jade heart formed from countless essences of this entire jade mountain? And it's not like those Divine Artifacts or Spirit Pearls worn by others; this is an untouched primordial Spirit Pearl that has just awakened! How did I get so lucky?" Zhao Yang thought to himself, unable to help but intertwine his fingers under his chin with an expression of blissful intoxication, spinning around like a woman who had just bought a diamond ring for ten dollars.
The Spirit Pearl emitted a soft whimpering sound, as if it were about to be sickened by Zhao Yang's antics.
When Zhao Yang looked at the original Spirit Pearl again, his eyes had turned into two hearts, and he sweetly said, "Little treasure, come here to your brother."
The Spirit Pearl buzzed and trembled, like a child clutching a blanket being eyed by a lecherous wolf, shivering in fear.
Zhao Yang's saliva dripped out, and with a slurp, he sucked it back in, swallowing hard as he chuckled, "Don't be afraid. I'm not a bad person. Follow me, and we'll conquer the Cultivation world together, defeating all opponents, stepping on handsome men everywhere, sleeping with beautiful women all over the world, collecting treasures, tasting elixirs, and reigning supreme!"
As Zhao Yang spoke enthusiastically, the Spirit Pearl slowly began to inch away from him. Suddenly, with a whoosh, it darted toward the cave entrance. However, just as it reached the mouth of the cave, it shrank back in as if it had never seen the world outside for millions of years and was somewhat afraid.
"Don't run away, little treasure! Your brother will take good care of you!" Zhao Yang exclaimed joyfully as he chased after it to the cave entrance, fearing that the Spirit Pearl would escape.
But just as he reached the entrance, he saw countless Jade Crawlers flying in all directions from the direction of the Outer Sect's Fish Pond. A few were heading toward him, each followed closely by several cultivators riding Flying Swords or magical artifacts in hot pursuit.
"How can there be so many? This Jade Crawler is quite capable," Zhao Yang murmured to himself.
Seeing so many strange creatures approaching startled the Spirit Pearl into spinning in place as if contemplating what to do. Suddenly, it radiated an incredibly gentle light that swiftly spread outwards in all directions. Except for Zhao Yang, no one else noticed this soft jade-like energy. Zhao Yang realized this too; everyone else appeared normal while he distinctly felt the vast serenity emanating from the Spirit Pearl.
"So the Chaotic Root not only encompasses Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Rain, Thunder, Lightning, Ice but includes all attributes. The Spirit Energy emitted by this Spirit Pearl must be of the jade attribute," Zhao Yang confirmed his judgment and then thought of Long Xiao Wu's Spiritual Root attribute. "It's a Dragon Spiritual Root..."
In an instant, the light from the Spirit Pearl extended for hundreds of thousands of miles. The next moment it swept over Three Thousand King City and all of Zhongzhou. As it passed over several farms, the light paused briefly over a few children and elderly people before continuing its journey into the distance.
After two or three breaths, the light from the Spirit Pearl dissipated and circled around Zhao Yang twice as if assessing something before emitting a buzzing vibration as if critiquing him.
Zhao Yang realized that the Spirit Pearl was seeking a master, and he proudly puffed out his chest, saying, "A genuine fighting genius, the owner of the Chaotic Root. So, how about following me?"
The Spirit Pearl, being a naturally born Divine Artifact, seemed to understand Zhao Yang's words. It buzzed and vibrated with a disdainful sound before flying off into the distance.
Seeing the Spirit Pearl about to fly away, Zhao Yang's expression turned anxious as he took off in pursuit. However, after just a few steps, the Spirit Pearl returned, followed by several Jade Crawlers. The Spirit Pearl buzzed around Zhao Yang's face, seemingly trying to say something in a showy manner.
Zhao Yang nodded in confusion, and then the Spirit Pearl swiftly darted into his collar, swimming along his clothes until it settled at his chest.
Zhao Yang laughed heartily, feeling an itch that was hard to bear. Suddenly, his Chaos True Qi trembled and faintly glowed. He felt a gentle jade thread wrap around his neck, hanging the Spirit Pearl at his chest. As he touched the Spirit Pearl on his chest, the Enlightenment Realm descended upon him.
When Zhao Yang looked up at the world again, everything had changed.
