Celestial Refining Divine Scripture-Chapter 256 - 254: Execution

Elixir Demon?

I’ve become an Elixir Demon?

Looking at Wang Xiuniang’s message, Xu Yang rolled his eyes speechlessly.

"A defiant Pill Master, a ruthless killer demon—well, that kind of fits!"

Xu Yang snarked, not caring much about the nickname, and kept reading, his expression suddenly turning grave.

The news of an overwhelming storm slaughtering scores of the Chen Family’s experts had spread.

Inside the Purple Fire Celestial Prison Forbidden Land, winds and clouds were churning.

Chen Wanxing raised the bounty yet again!

And outside the Forbidden Land, numerous Martial Artists were flooding in.

Even Wuhou Hall was starting to stir.

After reading it all, a chilling glint flashed across Xu Yang’s eyes.

"Huang Hua, Huangfu Qing, and even folks from Wuhou Hall—once they hear the news, they’re bound to rush over!"

"Chen Wanxing surviving wasn’t exactly a surprise!"

"But now everyone’s in the Purple Fire Celestial Prison—sounds like a good chance to wipe them all out in one go!"

Kill them all!

Though right now, he still didn’t have that kind of power.

But it wasn’t going to be easy for them to find him either.

There was still plenty of time to get stronger.

With that thought, Xu Yang put down the Communication Jade Talisman and started tallying up his spoils.

Half a quarter of an hour later.

Xu Yang tossed a pile of Spirit Elixirs straight into the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant.

Dozens of astonishingly potent Spirit Elixirs—all could nourish and restore the soul!

This batch, though not enough to fully restore, would still make him a bit better off than when he’d just left King Beixuan’s manor.

As for the other treasures—the haul was simply immense!

By now, even just his stash of Spirit Stones had broken a hundred million!

He now had another ten or so Divine Weapons prepared for the Scarlet Jiao!

When the Scarlet Jiao eventually smelts them all at once, using the environment here and its own power to nurture them for a while—just imagine, they’ll be absolutely terrifying, probably rivaling the Demon Dragon Saber itself!

"Master, are there any more body fragments nearby?" Xu Yang asked the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant.

"No need to rush that—break through to Yang Realm Perfection first!"

"Once you reach Yang Realm Perfection, your power will be almost as strong as a Late Stage of Myriad Manifestation Realm. That’s enough."

Xu Yang nodded slightly.

Breaking through to Yang Realm Perfection was simply a foregone conclusion!

All that was left was time.

He had way too many resources on hand.

Then, he took all the resources out and dumped them into the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod, channeled the Celestial Refining Divine Scripture, and quickly entered a cultivation state.

The inside of the volcano was almost completely isolated from the world outside.

The terrifying aura from the Scarlet Jiao made this place seem like a secret realm of its own.

Within a perimeter of ten thousand feet in the Periphery Void Space, not a single sound; all was dead silent.

Occasionally, Martial Artists or monster beasts passed by, sensing the monstrous aura—they would frantically detour away.

Time quietly slipped by.

In the blink of an eye, more than a month had passed.

During that month, the Purple Fire Celestial Prison was anything but quiet.

Because of the chaos between Xu Yang and the Chen Family, countless Martial Artists had been drawn in!

Some came to watch the spectacle, some hoping to profit in the chaos, and plenty from Wuhou Hall as well.

But after more than a month, everyone had gained absolutely nothing.

Xu Yang seemed to have vanished into thin air!

On this day—

Three figures were rushing by, when suddenly all three faces changed at once, staring in terror at the massive volcano ahead.

"Shit, that’s definitely a Myriad Manifestations Realm Perfection-level monster beast!"

"Run!"

The trio quickly retreated; when they’d gotten far enough, they cautiously stopped.

"Damn it, where the hell is that little bastard hiding?" Huang Hua grumbled, scanning the surroundings warily.

"If he’s really hiding, finding him here in the Purple Fire Celestial Prison won’t be easy," the Myriad Phenomena expert beside him sighed.

Huang Hua, strong as he was, knew the Purple Fire Celestial Prison wasn’t ordinary. So, before coming here, he made sure to bring two Late Stage of Myriad Manifestation Realm experts as bodyguards.

"Huangfu Qing’s supposedly here too, but I haven’t seen a trace of him either," Huang Hua frowned.

He really didn’t want to see Huangfu Qing break through to Myriad Manifestations.

If he couldn’t find Xu Yang, running into Huangfu Qing would be a good thing too!

The two guards glanced at Huang Hua; since it involved the top Marquis Wu of the Wuhou Hall, they didn’t dare meddle.

"Going any deeper in here is seriously dangerous!" one of them cautioned.

Huang Hua frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let’s find a spot nearby and wait for now!"

After searching for so long and turning up nothing, he could only admit defeat!

Suddenly—

The Periphery Void Space abruptly twisted!

"Who’s there?"

The two Late Stage of Myriad Manifestation Realm experts shouted, their eyes wary.

"Xu Yang?"

"You were hiding here all along?"

Huang Hua’s eyes popped out, pleasantly surprised as though he’d found a needle in a haystack.

Xu Yang was equally surprised.

He hadn’t broken through to Yang Realm Perfection yet, but with Gu Jun’s sudden warning, once he saw Huang Hua, he appeared directly.

"I told you last time—next time I saw you, it’d be your death day!"

"My pills aren’t so easy to take!"

Xu Yang’s murderous intent surged.

He showed up precisely to kill Huang Hua!

Huang Hua flew into a rage, "You think you can beat me?"

"You still haven’t reached Myriad Manifestations, and you dare challenge me?"

"The reason the Chen Family fell was because of the Purple Fire Celestial Prison!"

"Beat you once, I’ll beat you again!" Xu Yang sneered.

"Looking for death!"

Huang Hua’s face was iron-gray as he erupted into a frenzy.

Boom!

Xu Yang didn’t back down, stepping forward and throwing a punch to meet him head-on.

With a muffled grunt, Huang Hua staggered backward, battered and shaken.

"How is this possible?"

He stared wide-eyed, as if dreaming!

Last time they met, Xu Yang was at Middle Stage of Yang Realm—and after Huang Hua’s breakthrough, Xu Yang hadn’t even had a chance to fight back!

But now, Late Stage of Yang Realm, and he’d forced Huang Hua back with a single punch!

What kind of joke was this?

"Go together!"

"I want him alive!"

Huang Hua roared through gritted teeth.

Even if he didn’t want to admit it, to Xu Yang, he felt a pang of dread!

Sure, most of the Chen Family deaths were due to the local conditions, but to pull off something like this—Xu Yang’s terrifying skills were clear as day!

The two bodyguards didn’t hesitate; left and right, they darted like lightning straight at Xu Yang!

"Let’s see what you can do this time!"

Huang Hua bared his teeth in a cruel grin, full of confidence.

As far as he was concerned, Xu Yang was a trapped rat!

No matter how many tricks up his sleeve, against absolute power, it was all just an illusion!

Xu Yang smirked, a mocking glint in his eyes.

Two Late Stage of Myriad Manifestation Realm opponents were indeed dangerous!

"Who said I didn’t have any help?"

"What?"

Huang Hua blurted out in shock.

Then—

The fabric of space all around froze, a fissure on the verge of forming!

From high above, the vast fireclouds shattered to pieces!

On a distant volcano peak, a gigantic head emerged, its hellish eyes burning like grinding wheels of blazing fire!

The two Late Stage of Myriad Manifestation Realm experts looked as if struck by lightning, faces instantly drained of all color!

"Myriad Manifestations Realm Perfection!"

"Scarlet Jiao!"

The two shivered uncontrollably, utterly terrified, and without a second thought, turned and ran for their lives!

ROAR!

The Scarlet Jiao howled to the heavens, a deafening, earth-shattering roar!

Within ten thousand feet, wild storms tore through the fireclouds, shattering ancient trees all around!

The two Late Stage of Myriad Manifestation Realm experts had barely made it out when, as if struck by thunder, they spat blood and collapsed face-first.

The Scarlet Jiao hadn’t even needed to strike, just one roar!

Beyond the forbidden area, the Scarlet Jiao was almost peerless.

Only other peak-level monster beasts outside the forbidden area could possibly compete!

For Late Stage of Myriad Manifestation Realm, the pressure was simply crushing!

Xu Yang’s body shimmered, ghostlike, appearing behind the two, the Demon Dragon Saber slashing down like a gleaming arc.

Spurt!

Spurt!

The Late Stage of Myriad Manifestation Realm experts were butchered like pigs and dogs!

The splattering blood made Huang Hua shudder, scalp tingling!

In this moment, he didn’t even have time to wonder how Xu Yang had gotten such a terrifying monster beast to help him.

He fled in panic!
