Chapter 407: Five Elements Heaven-Binding Net
In the sleeping hall, Li Quanqing sat cross-legged at the highest place, with five spiritual pearls rotating in his palm, each emitting light of green, red, yellow, white, and black colors.
Since parting from the Five Elements Sect decades ago, this set of spiritual pearls has finally gathered again, seeing the light of day once more.
Bright light flickered, the five elements mutually generated and restrained each other, colliding and evolving into various manifestations of the five elements, eventually transforming into a colorful lotus, with Dao traces flowing, elucidating the most primordial Tao of the world.
Threads of power flowed, permeating throughout the entire hall, as if turning back into the majestic, vast Five-Colored Mountain, suppressing all things.
In terms of power alone, it is definitely a fine example among Fourth Rank Spiritual Treasures, comparable to the Five Elements Ring that Zhao Qian resides in.
Li Quanqing waved his sleeve, instantly capturing a demon beast from the bowl, which was precisely the Wooden Peacock, with a proud demeanor and aura at Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.
Over the years, this fellow has been studying the True Scripture left by the Old Ancestor of the Five Elements, attempting to awaken its bloodline, even though its Core Formation cultivation was delayed.
At this moment, the peacock demon's once emerald-green feathers had already started to grow five-colored feathers, appearing quite extraordinary.
The tail feathers spread open one by one, constantly manifesting visions of flames, leaves, water flows, rocks, and gold pieces, with demon energy flowing as if about to merge into one.
Unfortunately, it was still missing the most crucial step, unable to unify the five elements and operate smoothly.
Now with the Five Elements Spirit Pearls in hand, there was no need for words; the peacock demon's gaze was fixed on these pearls unwaveringly.
"I hope you won't disappoint me, five essences in unification, bone cleansing!"
As Li Quanqing formed seals with his fingers, the spiritual pearls immediately hummed, like a necklace, landing on the Wooden Peacock.
Meanwhile, a vast and pure Five Elements Essence Qi was released, like a torrent, washing over the peacock demon's body, cleansing impurities and beginning a deep-level bloodline awakening.
Visibly, the emerald green on the Wooden Peacock began to fade, with feathers shedding and new ones growing in, red, gold, yellow, colors vastly different.
"Caw!"
The peacock demon opened its mouth and cried out joyfully, filled with an indescribable comfort, truly beginning its bloodline reversion.
Eventually, its entire plumage fully transformed into vibrant five colors, especially the few tail feathers, where the five colors fused into one, becoming a colorful kaleidoscope.
This is truly the Feather of the Five Elements, containing the essence of the five elements unified, which is the most crucial lifebound true feather for demon birds.
The Wooden Peacock flapped its wings and cried out, with demon energy surging all over, carrying its body into the sky, directly flying out from the hall.
Rumble!
In the clouds of the heavenly vault, tribulation clouds began to gather, pitch-black, oppressive, interspersed with silver lightning, filled with overwhelming heavenly might.
The peacock demon fearlessly spread open its feathers, releasing five-colored radiance, like a lotus pattern shield, protecting itself.
Each tribulation thunderbolt fell, washed by the Five Elements Essence, returning to origin, becoming the purest spiritual energy in the world.
Such commotion naturally attracted many prying eyes, but a thread of Nascent Soul pressure emanated, instantly dispelling these thoughts.
"This fellow finally broke through to the Golden Core, even later than the Jade Qilin Beast, lagging behind it slightly."
Li Quanqing gazed at the tribulation clouds, amidst the entangled lightning, a Five-Colored Peacock soared high, with demon energy like clouds, easily facing the tribulation.
The Wooden Peacock actually had quite good talents, having reached Foundation Establishment Great Perfection over a decade ago, but was delayed for so long, only achieving perfection today.
[Acquired a Golden Core Early Stage Five-Colored Peacock, rewarded with Fourth Rank Nascent Soul Spiritual Treasure "Five Elements Heaven-Binding Net"!]
[Five Elements Heaven-Binding Net: A lower-grade Fourth Rank Spiritual Treasure, engraved with Five Elements Escape Technique patterns, can travel through mountains, rivers, plants, metals, stones, water, and fire, capturing various birds, beasts, snakes, mice, and can break through the world's five elements magic powers and divine skills.]
Amidst the thunder and lightning, the peacock demon suddenly emerged, breaking through layers of dark clouds, swallowing and exhaling resplendent demon core, with a light group shimmering on its forehead.
This light group reward was quite decent, considered a very rare and powerful spiritual treasure, specifically targeting various five elements magic.
What caught Li Quanqing's attention the most was the Wooden Peacock's race name, which had evolved into a brand-new Five-Colored Peacock.
Evidently, its true spirit bloodline within has further revived, truly stepping onto the path of bloodline reversion, transforming towards a Five Elements Peacock.
Truly, its future is promising.
"Caw!!"
The Five-Colored Peacock devoured all the essence qi in the sky, using it to hone its flawless golden pill, with five-colored radiance blooming continuously, resembling a brilliant treasure bead.
It retracted its body, descending elegantly and nobly through the clouds, like a noble among demon beasts, with its entire plumage covered in a layer of radiance.
Li Quanqing let it roam around near the hall, venting its joy, only to take hold of that light group and crush it in his hand.
After the light dispersed, a small spirit net appeared, displaying five colors, seemingly ready to merge with the surrounding space at any time, dreamy and elusive.
Li Quanqing considered fusing this with the other powerful spiritual treasures he had into an even stronger spiritual treasure.
However, he had too many Fourth Rank Spiritual Treasures, his main battle artifacts were but a few.
"There are many experts in the Immortal Realm; just in the Four Seas Sect, there are over a hundred Divinity Transformation Venerables... and perhaps, I can try to obtain a damaged Fifth Rank Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure…"
Li Quanqing was making plans in his heart.
Three days later, numerous Nascent Soul True Monarchs gradually arrived, and the Nascent Soul grand ceremony began, which was considered quite joyous and grand.
Though most of the attendees were righteous cultivators, many of the great cultivators of the East Sea were present, sitting and discussing, watching their disciples and grandchildren perform with great gusto, and it was quite a joyous occasion.
Though most of the guests were righteous cultivators, the two paths of righteousness and demon were not as irreconcilable as in ancient times, where life and death were at stake.
Among them, what particularly caught Li Quanqing's attention was that the Blood River Sect had given birth to a Demon Dao True Monarch who had inherited the title of the sect's predecessor, calling himself Blood River Ancestor, also a handsome young man in appearance.
The Blood River Ancestor was truly the shame of the Demon Path, behaving fawningly towards Li Quanqing, with a face full of smiles, practically written with the words "wants to curry favor with the Four Seas Sect", with a strong desire to survive.
Nonetheless, Li Quanqing still had his eyes on finding the whereabouts of the Yellow Springs Sect through the Blood River Sect, so that he could achieve his aim as soon as possible.
Additionally, the True Demon Sect also sent Nascent Soul True Monarchs to show their goodwill.
The three top sects of East Sea, Four Seas Sect, and Beast Taming Sect stood shoulder to shoulder, now the Demon Ancestral Court is the last, a Holy Land in the hearts of all the demon spawns, currently boasting a solid foundation with three Nascent Soul Cultivators, not to be underestimated.
As for the Corpse God Sect, they too sent a Nascent Soul True Monarch to demonstrate goodwill, but eventually left disappointed after failing to obtain the Drought Demon Puppet from Li Quanqing.
After the grand ceremony concluded, it let Li Quanqing witness a multitude of East Sea True Monarchs altogether, attending diligently, which was quite a lively and joyous gathering.
This event allowed Li Quanqing to truly integrate into this circle and gain recognition.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Four Seas Sect officially announced Li Quanqing's appointment as their tributor, and everything went joyously.
As a result, the Four Seas Sect, as the number one sect in the East Sea, now holds a total of six Nascent Soul cultivators, including Li Quanqing, far exceeding the Beast Taming Sect and the True Demon Sect, each with only three Nascent Soul cultivators, even counting their hidden forces.
Li Quanqing was naturally aware of these undercurrents but paid them no mind, recognizing it as the trend of the time.
With his own strength, donned in the Whale Emperor Sacred Armor, Li Quanqing was strong enough, and coupled with the company of powerful Nascent Soul Clan, it boded well for the future.
Among whom was the long-heard-of, finally seen, a chance encounter with Patriarch of the Yellow Springs sect, Tian Gui Ancestor.
