Mysterious mirror hanging high

Chapter 898 Five-Line Millstone

Jing Yu's expression shifted, a plan forming in her mind, and she said:

"If that's the case, there might still be room for maneuver between us. Why don't we join together to overthrow the divine cauldron..."

"Hahaha!"

To his surprise, Li Fang burst into laughter: "Are you out of your mind? I'm about to take your head back for a reward. Cooperate with you? On what grounds?"

Jing Yu frowned and said, "Don't you hate the powerful and wealthy of the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty to the extreme?"

"Bullshit... Grandpa doesn't hate the powerful and wealthy, he hates that he himself isn't one of them!"

"Suffer to death!"

Li Fang was too lazy to waste any more words with Jing Yu, so he stopped talking and flipped his palms over, and five-colored light burst forth from his fingertips.

With his left hand forming the Yin Wood Seal and his right hand forming the Chen Earth Seal, he stepped out with the Li Fire Step, and a phantom image of the Five Elements Wheel appeared behind him—a unique law imagery of a Cave Heaven cultivator!

"The Five Elements Revolve—Gold and Fire Spread Like Wildfire!"

Li Fang roared, and the colors of gold and fire shone brightly in the Five Elements Wheel.

Thousands of flaming arrows, imbued with the sharp energy of Geng metal, materialized out of thin air. Before the rain of arrows even arrived, the intense heat waves had already caused Jing Yu's hair and beard to curl.

Jing Yu's pupils shrank suddenly. He took out a golden dragon crescent blade from his storage bag and held it horizontally in front of him. The dragon pattern on the blade suddenly lit up.

At the same time, a set of high-quality spirit armor appeared on Jing Yu's body.

The arrows struck the blade and exploded into bursts of fire. Each explosion forced Jing Yu to retreat several steps, and faint golden Dao patterns flowed across the skin of his arms that gripped the blade—a sign that the Bitter Crossing Body was operating at full power.

"Can a Nascent Soul cultivator withstand my Five Elements technique that combines the laws of metal and fire?"

Li Fang was filled with doubt and suspicion. He then looked at the crescent blade in Jing Yu's hand and the spirit armor on her body, and muttered to himself:

"This looks like just an ordinary magical artifact, so why is it so powerful in his hands?"

Li Fang was naturally unaware that a purple life bead called "Piercing Armor and Sharpness" had been secretly inlaid on the back of the Xuan Mirror in the center of Jing Yu's dantian.

The other two slots are occupied by two blue life beads, namely [Flesh and Blood Regeneration] and [Innate Divine Power].

With the blessing of three purely auxiliary combat power destiny points, coupled with Jing Yu's [Life Loss Burning Body] life-burning secret technique activated by the Law of Lifespan, his combat power has been elevated to an unimaginable level. Any Nascent Soul cultivator in front of him is almost powerless to fight back.

Unfortunately, he is now facing a cultivator at the Cave Heaven Realm.

The gap between major realms is not so easy to bridge, not to mention that Li Fangyuan in front of him is not comparable to that useless prince [Ying Jun] back then. He is also at the middle to upper level among the early stage of the Cave Heaven cultivators. With just a few spells, he made Jing Yu struggle and look very embarrassed.

"Good, good, good... I've lived for over 20,000 years and this is the first time I've ever seen a Nascent Soul cultivator who could withstand one of my spells. It's a pity that such a prodigy has fallen here today."

Li Fang shouted, "Let's see how many moves you can withstand!"

The Five Elements Wheel suddenly rotated in reverse, with the colors of water and wood intertwined.

Dozens of dark blue vines covered with poisonous thorns broke through the soil, and the sap dripping from the vines corroded the bluestone ground, producing wisps of white smoke.

"cut!"

For the first time, Jing Yu had no choice but to take the initiative, his crescent blade slicing through an arcane path.

As the blade flashed, the vines were barely severed. Jing Yu then pushed off the ground and charged forward, aiming the blade directly at Li Fang's throat.

"Innocent!"

Li Fang sneered, neither dodging nor avoiding.

Just as the blade was three inches away from him, five spirit shields of different attributes suddenly appeared in front of him.

The moment the outermost earthen shield was shattered, the inner water shield had already deflected seven-tenths of the incoming force. As the last three shields flashed, they even reflected some of the sword energy back!

"puff……"

Jing Yu was jolted back by the thirty percent of his own sword energy, and a metallic taste rose in his throat.

He retreated more than ten feet, slamming his sword hilt heavily on the ground to steady himself. He thought to himself with a chill, "The five elements interact and restrain each other in an endless cycle... This is the power of a cultivator in the Cave Heaven to control the laws..."

Li Fang, seizing the advantage, pressed his advantage. Five-colored spiritual light gathered in his palm, coalescing into a massive Five Elements Millstone, which pressed down on Jing Yu with overwhelming force.

Upon seeing this, Jing Yu's pupils shrank sharply, and the oppressive aura emanating from the Five Elements Millstone made his bones creak.

However, the space in this immortal palace was cramped, and the Five Elements Millstone was so huge that it almost filled the entire immortal palace, leaving Jing Yu with no room to hide.

boom--

The Five Elements Millstone relentlessly ground down, finally crashing into the wall of the hall, disappearing without a trace, and stirring up a cloud of dust.

"ended."

Li Fang's face paled slightly. The [Five Elements Great Millstone] technique he had just used was his trump card, extremely powerful. The Nascent Soul cultivator in front of him was surely doomed.

"Unfortunately, I was only born with a five-aperture nascent soul, and could only cultivate the Five Elements Laws... If I had formed a seven-aperture nascent soul back then, and cultivated the Yin-Yang Laws, I could have learned the [Yin-Yang Five Elements Great Millstone]. This divine power is truly earth-shattering, and at that time, what cultivator of the same level could be my match?"

Li Fang felt a pang of pain in his heart, secretly regretting that the lack of resources in the past had delayed his path, and now his achievements were mediocre, and it was too late for regrets.

But after the smoke cleared, Li Fang's eyes widened in surprise.

Jing Yu was leaning against the wall, his body almost entirely covered in unscathed flesh, with some areas even revealing his bare bones.

He leaned on his crescent blade, looking rather disheveled, and gasped for breath.

Amazingly, as he took deep breaths, his skin and flesh rapidly grew and repaired. In just a few breaths, Jing Yu's injuries were completely healed—at least outwardly, there was no visible damage.

"Ok?"

Li Fang was horrified: "What kind of monster is this...?"

"Even if you achieve mastery in body tempering, each recovery requires a large amount of vital essence. Let's see how many times you can withstand that..."

Li Fang once again conjured a five-colored millstone in his palm, only to see Jing Yu staring fiercely at him from the opposite side, thinking to himself:

"Come, today I'll see if the true essence of a Cave Heaven Realm cultivator is truly inexhaustible!"

After thinking it over, he actually took the knife and went to meet them!

The two fought back and forth for a full hour. Li Fang, after all, was a cultivator of the Cave Heaven Realm with abundant true essence, and at this moment he was still far from exhausting his true essence.

However, Jing Yu's spirit armor was already tattered and her face was slightly pale.

Even though her Jade Marrow Realm physique could continuously generate blood, the massive amount of essence and blood consumed in restoring her physical body for a full hour was still too much for Jing Yu to handle.

"This person only uses the same few Five Elements techniques over and over again, so he is just an ordinary cultivator who has attained enlightenment through the Five Elements Laws... He is just older, but he is so difficult to deal with! The gap between the Cave Heaven Realm and the Divine Transformation Realm is still too big."

Jing Yu gritted his teeth and thought, "Damn it, if I had the [Supreme Ruler] destiny right now, would this old man still be so arrogant in front of me?"

He pondered, "Should I use the [Nine Lives of a Tanuki] technique to fake my death and escape? But I don't know what's going on with this Immortal Palace. If it's truly a fight to the death between the two of us, and only one of us can survive to open it, then faking death won't be of much use, and it certainly won't fool him."
