Mystery Descends: My Exchanges Are Not Equal

Very quickly, Wang Teng stepped onto the Sealing Altar.

The Sealing Altar had four Heaven-Reaching Stone Pillars, piercing the clouds, inscribed with mysterious talismans, exuding an ancient atmosphere.

Wang Teng walked to the nearest Heaven-Reaching Stone Pillar and saw that among the various talismans, all were composed of Divine Dragons, exuding an aura strikingly similar to the Cyan Dragon.

He felt a stirring in his heart and gently placed his palm on the talismans.

A surge of the Power of Cyan Dragon naturally arose from his body and transmitted to the pillar.

"Buzz~!!"

A clear sound rang out.

The Heaven-Reaching Stone Pillar trembled slightly as the Power of Cyan Dragon flowed between the talismans.

The next moment, a cyan light erupted from the lowest end of the pillar, rapidly spreading to the entire stone pillar, lighting up with a cyan spiritual glow that stretched to the heavens.

The Cyan Dragon Stone Pillar was fully activated!

High above in the sky, a layer of cyan light shield could faintly be seen, rippling with waves.

This was the World Seal.

Wang Teng was overjoyed and quickly moved to the second pillar.

The second Heaven-Reaching Stone Pillar was engraved with Vermilion Bird talismans.

Wang Teng placed his palm on it and activated the Power of Vermilion Bird.

The next moment, the Vermilion Bird Stone Pillar was activated, erupting with a towering red spiritual light.

In the distant sky, red ripples appeared once again.

Subsequently, he continued towards the next pillar...

"Buzz~!" "Buzz~!"

In this way, Wang Teng used the Power of Black Tortoise and the Power of White Tiger successively to activate each Heaven-Reaching Stone Pillar.

When the Heaven-Reaching Stone Pillars with the Power of the Four Symbols were fully activated, the entire Sealing Altar was completely initiated, dazzling with incomparable divine radiance.

"Boom~!" "Boom~!" "Boom~!" "Boom~!"

Subsequently, four heaven-piercing pillars of light connected the sky and the earth, continuously expanding and contracting.

Waves of energy with different colors spread across the sky.

"Rumble~!"

The sky and the earth resonated simultaneously!

The wind and clouds changed!

"Crack~!" "Crack~!" "Crack~!"

At the same time, the Sealing Altar began to crack inch by inch.

Seeing this, Wang Teng quickly jumped off the Sealing Altar.

"Boom~!"

At the moment he jumped off, the Sealing Altar exploded instantly, with debris flying everywhere.

A hundred-zhang dragon head slowly emerged from the bottom of the Sealing Altar, its house-sized golden vertical pupils sweeping over the world with disdain.

"Roar~!"

A dragon roar rang out through the sky and the earth!

The entirety of Mount Tai trembled.

Wang Teng's figure dashed away, narrowly avoiding the shockwave of the dragon's roar.

At the same time, black ripples appeared in his eyes...

[Character: Long Zong Evil Spirit]

[Origin: A thousand years ago, the Long Zong was slain and sealed, with its soul severed and disintegrated, but one spirit remained, entering the Sealing Altar as the Power of Sacrifice, combined with the Power of the Four Symbols, sealing a world.]

[Hint: A thousand years of bitter guarding has left it stripped of reason, completely transformed into an embodiment of evil.]

[Traits: Evil, Brutal, Resentful]

It turned out to be just one of the seven evil spirits of Long Zong, sealed for a millennia.

However, even after being sealed for a thousand years, its presence was still extremely terrifying.

"Roar~!"

The Long Zong Evil Spirit roared to the sky, then looked down upon the earth, merely sweeping over Wang Teng without stopping.

Finally, its gaze landed on the Dragon Bone not far away, its eyes immediately showing grief and anger.

The accumulated resentment of a thousand years completely erupted at this moment!

It wanted to slaughter all living creatures in this world!

"Roar~!"

Another dragon roar sounded, and the thousand-zhang dragon body rose from the ground.

The Long Zong Evil Spirit dashed towards the Dragon Bone and attached itself to it.

"Rumble~!"

As soon as the evil spirit attached to the Dragon Bone, the sky and earth changed color instantly.

The spiraling Dragon Bone lit up with a profound yellow light.

"Crack~!" "Crack~!" "Crack~!"

The broken bones that were originally severed reconnected and healed under the effect of the evil spirit, with the thousand-zhang skeleton beginning to slowly wriggle.

Mountains crumbled and earth shattered!

"Rumble~!"

The entire mountain peak was trembling!

Furious winds arose between heaven and earth.

The Dragon Bone ascended to the sky!

Its claws stepped on auspicious clouds!

Lightning and thunder roared!

"Crack~!" "Crack~!" "Crack~!"

"Rumble~!"

Subsequently, in the clouds and mists of the sky, there came the crisp sound of bones snapping and a rumbling noise.

This commotion lasted for a full quarter of an hour before it stopped.

The skies were shrouded in mist, with a thousand-zhang Flood Dragon, its entire body emitting black gas, its eyes filled with brutality.

Wang Teng was taken aback and quickly looked over.

[Character: Long Zong Evil Spirit Corpse Puppet.]

[Level: Half-Step Profound Tier.]

[Martial Arts (Skills): ???.]

[Talent: B-level Three Thousand Flames, B-level Wind Profound Ultimate]

[Comprehensive Combat Power: 12880.]

[Origin: The Long Zong Evil Spirit resurrected by borrowing the Dragon Bone, its intellect completely obliterated, leaving only evil and resentment, it will slaughter all living creatures.]

Holy shit~!

This had actually reached Half-Step Profound Tier strength!

Its comprehensive combat power exceeded his by 2000 points!

Wang Teng was somewhat surprised.

He didn't know that only in the Celestial Court World could bounties reach the level of Half-Step Profound Tier.

In other worlds, it was merely Yellow Tier, not even reaching the peak of Yellow Tier in most cases.

"Roar~!!"

An earthshaking dragon roar!

The massive body of the Long Zong Evil Spirit Corpse Puppet suddenly swung towards Wang Teng.

The thousand-zhang dragon body, like a deity, spanned the heavens and the earth.

In an instant, the dragon's tail swung close.

Its violent aura blotted out the sky and engulfed the sun, terrifying to the extreme.

And Wang Teng, in front of it, was like an ant standing before an elephant, incomparably small.

"Whoosh~!"

The Long Zong Evil Spirit Corpse Puppet swung its tail.

Its dragon tail, as thick as a house, fiercely slammed towards Wang Teng's body, stirring up gusts of wind and creating a tempest.

"Whoa~!"

The cyan flag fluttered and instantly wrapped around Wang Teng's fist.

Unparalleled Divine Power, activate!

Immediately, the fist's momentum soared to the sky, meeting the gigantic dragon's tail!

"Boom~!"

A thunderous, earth-shattering explosion!

Fist and tail collided!

An immense tidal wave of air surged for miles!

In the next second, the Long Zong Evil Spirit Corpse Puppet let out a muffled groan and was blasted back by a punch.

In this round, Wang Teng surprisingly gained the upper hand.

"Roar~!"

The Long Zong Evil Spirit Corpse Puppet's dragon tail kept retreating in the air, barely stabilizing its posture.

At this moment, its heart was incredibly shocked and extremely angry.

It had actually been blasted away by a mere human!

This was utterly humiliating for a dragon!

This absolutely couldn't be allowed!

"Roar~!"

Another furious roar erupted!

"Boom~rumble~!"

Immediately after, heaven and earth were in turmoil!

Countless blood-red mists surged from the soil.

The world lost its color!

Everything in sight was replaced by crimson.

A wild and primitive aura slowly emerged.

"Boom~!"

At the peak of Mount Tai, the mountain exploded.

Inside the hundred-foot mountain peak, fine fingerprints were revealed.

That's right! Fingerprints.

The hundred-foot mountain peak was nothing but a segment of a finger.

"Boom~rumble~!"

A gigantic hand rose from the ground, grasping the Long Zong Evil Spirit Corpse Puppet in the air.

The thousand-foot dragon body appeared like a toy in front of that hand.

"Amitabha Buddha~! My presence has finally returned to the world of the living!"

In Wang Teng's gaze, amidst the clouds in the sky, a gigantic Buddha statue was revealed.

However, this Buddha statue's left half bore a kind and benevolent visage, exuding the Buddha's aura of universal salvation.

The right half of the body was malicious and sinister, exposing gleaming white bones, the right arm was severed at the shoulder, and decaying flesh threatened to fall at any moment, emitting a tremendous corpse aura.

Two extremes, evil and Buddha nature, appeared simultaneously on this Buddha statue.

At this moment, the Long Zong Evil Spirit Corpse Puppet was coiling on his right shoulder.

Soon after, the gigantic Buddha statue began to shrink, and then a massive fireball descended from the sky!

Carrying destructive might!

"Boom~!"

Within a hundred miles, sand and stones flew, and dust arose.

The massive shockwave nearly blew Wang Teng away.

The smoke cleared, and a Buddha, restored to the size of a normal human, appeared in the original Sealing Altar spot, with a reminiscing look in his eyes.

"A thousand years ago, I failed~! This world ultimately could not escape reincarnation!"

"A thousand years later, is it you who will tread this path?"

The Bald Buddha looked up coldly at Wang Teng.

Meanwhile, Wang Teng was also observing the Bald Buddha.

Black ripples quickly surfaced in his eyes.

[Character: Buddha's Legacy.]

[Level: Profound Tier (Low-grade Foundation Establishment).]

[Martial Arts (Skills): ???.]

[Talent: ???]

[Comprehensive Combat Power: 15000.]

[Origin: Once the Realm Master of this world a thousand years ago, transformed by the persistence after death.]

What the heck~!

This is actually a Profound Tier character!

A character modified by the Cosmic Power!

The combat power surpasses him by 5000 points!

No wonder there are so many Buddha's Karmic Fruits here.

It turns out, not only Long Zong's bones are buried here, but also a real Buddha!

However, this Buddha had died a thousand years ago, with only a tenth of its power remaining.

"Hmm? Low-grade Foundation Establishment?"

Wang Teng's eyes lit up.

He found some useful information from those details.

Low-grade Foundation Establishment.

Could it be that breaking through from Yellow Tier to Profound Tier is a Foundation Establishment process?

The higher the degree of modification by Cosmic Power, the higher the Foundation Establishment tier, and naturally, the higher the strength and potential.

This is quite interesting!

Wang Teng's eyes sparkled.

He finally knew how to become stronger for the next step.

It was at this moment that the familiar mechanical voice brought new information.

[Bounty Task Tip: Buddha's Legacy has appeared, with good and evil only a thin line apart. If its evil intentions take over completely, all living beings in this world will be slaughtered.]

[Bounty Task Tip: Slay Buddha's Legacy, let it resolve its inner conflict, and completely sacrifice to the world between Heaven and Earth, and this bounty task will be completed. You will receive extremely generous bounty rewards!]

"I see!"

Wang Teng suddenly realized.

It turns out, only by slaying the Buddha's Legacy, can the bounty task truly be completed and the World Seal be unlocked.

At this moment, the Bald Buddha coldly looked at him.

"At this time, I only have a tenth of my strength."

"To lead this world, you must first prove you are stronger than me!"

As he finished speaking, the power of the wind and fire attributes in the world surged towards the Bald Buddha.

Instantly, the Bald Buddha's aura was tremendously boosted.

The Long Zong Evil Spirit Corpse Puppet roared wildly on the right shoulder, dancing with excitement for its master's rebirth.

"Crack~!"

The Long Zong Evil Spirit Corpse Puppet merged with the right shoulder, becoming the Bald Buddha's right arm.

In the blink of an eye, the Bald Buddha's comprehensive combat power skyrocketed to twenty thousand, terrifying to the extreme.

Harnessing the power of heaven and earth for one's own use is the fundamental method only available at the Profound Tier Realm.

This is the biggest difference between the Yellow Tier Realm and the Profound Tier Realm.

This scene left Wang Teng dumbfounded...
