Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 548 – Stability

From what Yang Junshan could tell, the moment that rock was spat out from its mouth, all the divine abilities and techniques he could control immediately lost their effectiveness, and the Earth Stealing Mouse that was originally trying to escape using its innate divine ability did the same thing as when Yang Junshan was using the Earth Escape Technique. It directly dove into the ground.

At the same time, in the instant that this dirt like rock appeared, in Yang Junshan’s dantian, the origin energy that was like an enormous funnel cloud was about to completely scatter, and the treasured pellet, Origin Setting Pellet that Yang Junshan had refined earlier, which was used to consolidate his cultivation, was about to lose its effectiveness.

“This rock …” He had to get it!

Moreover, it looked like a mystical rock that could restrain Yang Junshan’s abilities, so how could Yang Junshan possibly let it fall into the hands of another person, even if it was just a desolate beast without intelligence. It was a giant mouse that was hiding its secrets behind its back.

After the Earth Stealing Mouse entered the ground, Yang Junshan immediately lost track of it. This time, he couldn’t even sense the fluctuations of earth elemental energy.

However, the Gangster Mouse could dodge Yang Junshan’s senses, and at the same time, Yang Junshan could take the initiative to include the Gangster Mouse into his perception range.

At this time, his vision was already unable to see anything. He could only rely on his nine tenacious true essence to sense the earth spirit energy that existed around him underground, and the funnel-shaped astral cloud that was condensed in Yang Junshan’s dantian trembled yet again.

To the east!

At the same time, Yang Junshan unleashed his Earth Escape Technique. His entire body immediately advanced underground, and chased after the strange energy that could affect the True Divine Cloud in his body.

As Yang Junshan closed in on him, the strange energy within his dantian that could make his Astral Gathering Cloud collapse became more and more intense. Yang Junshan knew that he had already gotten closer to the Stardust Mouse.

Yang Junshan did his best to control the True Divine Cloud in his dantian. As he got closer and closer to the Earth Shaman, the precious medicinal pellet he had used to protect the Congealed Origin Pill seemed to have lost its effectiveness. He was almost risking his cultivation to collapse to chase this Earth Shaman, but it was precisely because of this that he became more and more determined to get the strange stone on the Earth Shaman’s body.

After all, it didn’t know how to use the earth escape technique, so its speed naturally couldn’t be compared to Yang Junshan’s Earth escape technique. In fact, its distance was also far less than fifty kilometers away from Yang Junshan.

Thirty miles away, in the forest, a huge, fat rat that seemed to be holding something in its mouth sneakily crawled out from the ground. After that, it cautiously looked around and found that there was no danger, only then did this huge rat open its mouth, and a yellow rock that was covered with cracks fell out of its mouth onto the ground.

Just as the giant rat wanted to put the stone away, a hand suddenly came from deep underground and grabbed it right under its nose. The hand immediately retracted back into the ground, and the stone disappeared along with it.

“Zhi zhi.” The moment the hand appeared, the huge rat opened its mouth and bit at it. Unexpectedly, with a “gabeng” sound, it bit into empty air, and the hand had already disappeared from the ground.

The giant rat became flustered after losing the strange rock. Its two front claws dug crazily into the ground where the palm had appeared, forming a hole in the ground. However, the giant rat did not know which direction to go.

A few meters away, Yang Junshan easily jumped out of the ground, with a strange expression of puzzlement in his eyes as he sized up the strange rock in his hand. The moment the strange stone appeared, the huge rat at the bottom of the cave also felt its miraculous power, and its fat body didn’t slow down in the slightest, as though it had flown out of the hole in the ground.

Looking at the strange stone in Yang Junshan’s hand, the giant mouse seemed to have forgotten its previous fear of Yang Junshan as it cried out and rushed towards him.

Yang Junshan flipped his palm, the strange stone had already disappeared from his palm, and the giant mouse became even angrier seeing that, it jumped up from the ground and pounced towards Yang Junshan.

Yang Junshan let out a cold snort and pushed at the giant mouse with his palm. An invisible giant force immediately sent the giant mouse flying into the ground, and his fat body opened up a long ravine that was a foot deep. The giant mouse struggled on the ground, but was unable to take a single step forward.

The fear of death had finally overcome its greed for the strange stone. At this time, the giant mouse finally felt Yang Junshan’s tyranny, and actually turned around and ran away.

However, Yang Junshan’s [Earth Shattering Seal] was not only used to block the attack of the giant rat, the true power of this ability was suppression!

Yang Junshan who was originally pushing it with his palm suddenly pushed downwards, the force of the fear immediately descended onto the huge rat’s body, suppressing it onto the ground and preventing it from moving. The huge round belly that was originally pressed tightly to the ground became flat.

The threat of death became more and more intense, but the giant rat was unable to escape from the suppression of the Overlapping Earth Seal. At first, it wanted to dig the ground under it, but when the soil under it started to churn, no matter how many times it tried to dig, there would be a lot of earth to fill it up. However, the hole was unable to form, and the pressure on its body continued to increase, until its four limbs could no longer withstand its weight.

Although Yang Junshan’s [Overcast] divine ability was mainly used for suppression, and although this divine ability had helped him greatly in normal battles, he still treated it arue killing technique. Like now, it was actually able to suppress a dire beast to its death, which was why the True Essence in his body was able to condense the True Essence into astral clouds.

Although Astral Transformation Realm allowed the cultivator’s own true essence to produce astral energy, it was only nurturing astral energy. Although it allowed the cultivator to greatly increase the divine ability’s power when controlling it, it was still very shallow on how to use true essence astral energy.

Now that Yang Junshan’s cultivation had advanced to the Gangli Accumulation Realm, the True Essence could be used to nurture the True Divine Spirit that was even better when combined with the innate ability. With the same amount of power, Yang Junshan could easily control the condensation of the True Essence True Divine Spirit, which would greatly increase the innate ability itself.

This was perhaps the fundamental difference between Astral Transformation Realm and Gangli Accumulation Realm. Other than the increase in the total amount of true essence, the most important thing was the increase in quality, and this kind of increase in quality was reflected in the cultivator’s control over the origin energy.

This was the first time Yang Junshan killed a giant dire beast. Although the dire beasts were treasures everywhere, at Yang Junshan’s level, the only thing that could be seen were the two front teeth in the rat’s mouth.

Yang Junshan flipped his hand, and the strange rock that was filled with cracks appeared in his palm once again. And at this time, under the wrapping of the strand of origin energy from Yang Junshan’s palm, the strange energy that was initially trying to destroy the astral cloud suddenly disappeared from his dantian. On the contrary, a wave of energy that was the same as the Mountain Nine Piercing Technique, was unceasingly being fused with the origin energy, and after entering his dantian, it actually began to stabilize Yang Junshan’s cultivation realm.

Yang Junshan even had a feeling that with this strange stone in his hands, he could even completely stabilize the state of his Gangli Accumulation Realm within three days.

Furthermore, unlike the Origin Setting Pill, which temporarily turned into external support for the True Divine Cloud, it required the cultivator to continue cultivating in order to re-stabilize their cultivation. This strange stone’s faster strengthening stage allowed the cultivator’s Gangli Accumulation Realm to completely stabilize.

Just what kind of stone was this? How did it end up in the hands of the Earth Stealing Mouse, a desolate beast that had yet to awaken its intelligence? Where did this desolate beast find such a strange stone?

Yang Junshan’s mind flashed with this thought. The moment he had obtained this strange stone, he had attempted to send his spirit sense into this strange rock. Unfortunately, even though this strange rock looked like it was about to shatter on its own, his spirit sense was unable to penetrate it at all.

On the hill formed by his dantian, the spirit of the rock mace, Pangolin, was crazily running away from the top of the mountain. At the same time, it was clamoring for Yang Junshan to give it this strange stone in his hand.

“I can feel it, as long as you give it to me, my source energy will recover by a large amount. This stone is extremely good for my body, give it to me, give it to me, my body has already been refined by you, don’t you want it to become stronger?”

Yang Junshan completely ignored the wild hooting of the Pangolin. It was true that the mace was extremely powerful, but Yang Junshan had an absolutely clear understanding of it.

From his point of view, all the treasures and resources were mainly used to increase his own cultivation, only after that would he use them to cultivate his Divine Arts, and treasures would only be considered external strength to increase a cultivator’s strength. Although it would greatly increase a cultivator’s strength, they would only be placed third to Yang Junshan.

Before Yang Junshan could confirm if this strange stone was useless against his cultivation and the sacred art he was training in, even if the Pangolin could confirm that this strange stone was extremely useful for repairing its body, it could only stare and wait.

Ten kilometers away, after Yang Junshan killed the White-headed Giant Hawk and chased after the rodent, the pressure on Nan Wang County suddenly lessened. First, Spiritual Master Zhou had finally tired out his heavily injured Mountain Crashing Bull, followed, Adept Jing Chen had unleashed his might, killing the Wolf King and the majority of the wolves.
