Chapter 1610: Chapter 676: Where Is My Medicinal Power?!

The colossal Divine Statue on the dome slowly turned expressionless; the Earth Guardian True Monarch had already advised him, and now drew back his Divine Power and retreated in silence.

The hammer blows in the field still sounded dull and heavy.

Ning Zhuo stood at the Array Heart, sleeves hanging loose. His face was slightly pale from having just woken from unconsciousness, yet his gaze was clear and bright.

He raised his hand and beckoned; the many piled-up Flying Messages and Intelligence Jade Scrolls flew over from afar.

Most of these Flying Messages spoke of one thing—the battle between Chun Yangzi and Liang Ming!

"The fifth battle—Chun Yangzi finally made a move himself."

"Very good. He won the most crucial battle. Oh? Nanming Village has already occupied the Sun Raising Yang Locking Cloud Altar; this charge to seize the peak and establish the village is now accomplished!"

Ning Zhuo smiled faintly, then began to closely examine the combat footage.

The scene of the Dawu Heavenly Plaza Martial Arts Arena spread out with a thunderous rush.

The Noon Sun Patrol Vehicle hung high beneath the firmament, like a great sun forcibly propped up. For six days and six nights, it was almost always in the sky, shedding exhausted yet tenacious sunlight, contending against the Yin Earth Tomb Country that Liang Ming slowly spread forth bit by bit.

Liang Ming Summoned Gods and raised tombs.

The Bone-carrying Child, the Light-Hiding Tomb Woman, the Old Official Furi, the Grey Fetus Corpse Mother, the Erosion Mirror Nether Official, the Earth Belly Fire Swallowing Lord, the Burial Sun Jade Lord—one Little God of the Netherworld after another manifested, Yin Qi surging like tide, grave soil rolling like waves.

Chun Yangzi for his part repeatedly employed the Three-Time Yang Body Technique.

Rising Sun Body, Noon Sun Body, Dusk Sun Body.

The Cloud Gathering and Sun Supplementing Lamp was lit multiple times.

The Red Jade Lamp was as thin as cicada wings; the lamp wick’s rosy threads burned from their initial bright purple-gold, gradually falling to a weary scarlet red, until in the end only a single, wavering thread of light remained.

The Golden Crow Carrying Pill Ring opened its eyes again and again.

That Red Gold Arm Ring transformed into a Three-legged Golden Crow, carrying different Elixir Pills in its beak. Different pills, different might: some replenished Pure Yang Qi, some suppressed Yin venom, some enhanced the Nine Yang Knocking Finger, some shielded the Dao Heart, some forcibly raised Mana fire control.

The Bright Heart Evil Mirror was in the end densely blotched with black stains.

The Three Thousand Scripture Burning Fire burned until the Daoist robe’s Scripture grew dim, on the verge of being scoured away.

The Burning Night Returning Light Sword remained ever keen, as though cleaving open the black night again and again.

When the Nine Yang Knocking Finger reached the seventh finger, Ning Zhuo saw Chun Yangzi’s fingers with skin and flesh all split open, even the finger bones fracturing.

...

Ning Zhuo watched three times in succession.

"Senior Chun Yangzi’s tactics are one of the correct choices."

"Liang Ming has the Heaven-reaching Hook in hand. If Senior Chun Yangzi had gone all out in a fierce assault from the beginning, forcing him into a one-thread-from-death situation, he would have triggered the Taoist Artifact in advance. Then Liang Ming would have thrown out a brand-new method, such as rapid recovery; at that time Chun Yangzi would have been in real trouble."

"Therefore, he had to fight a war of attrition, had to probe out Liang Ming’s methods as much as possible, so that he could prepare himself."

"It looks as though Liang Ming was leading him by the nose, yet in truth Chun Yangzi was forcing Liang Ming to raise up all seven tombs one by one, to flip his trump cards face-up one by one."

Ning Zhuo’s eyes narrowed slightly.

"This is like the two of them locked in close-quarters combat. When the enemy’s fist is hidden behind his waist, it’s the hardest to guard against. Once he truly throws the heavy punch—his shoulders, waist, legs, and breathing all driving power together—in that instant, he no longer has the leeway to kick, to leap, to change direction."

"When the heavy punch is heaviest, the situation is also clearest."

"When strength is at its peak, it is also at its weakest."

"Just as the Seven Gui Sacrifice to Destroy the Body was on the verge of completion, Liang Ming pressed all his focus onto the gathering of his Divine Skills. At that precise moment Chun Yangzi countered—his chance of victory was greatest, and his confidence highest."

"Only, the Heaven-reaching Hook’s might is so great that even the Yang Fish couldn’t block it."

"I was hemmed in by my prior layout; retreating a step was indeed to find the sea broad and sky vast. If I were alone, facing the Three Brave of Xiang Sect, and they also held this Taoist Artifact in their grasp..."

Ning Zhuo gave a bitter smile and shook his head.

"The Humbleheart Broken-Blade Guard was destroyed?"

"Tsk."

Ning Zhuo lightly stroked his Mechanical Ring with his fingertip, a trace of regret flashing in his eyes.

"Fortunately, it can be mass-produced."

"Sacrificing this Humbleheart Broken-Blade Guard in exchange for invisible political gains is still a profit."

The Mechanism he had lent, before countless watching eyes, blocked the Heaven-reaching Hook’s final residual force for Chun Yangzi.

Even if Chun Yangzi did not acknowledge it, others would remember.

Ning Zhuo’s attention ultimately focused on the Sun Raising Yang Locking Cloud Altar.

He read and reread the information on the transfer of this Feng Shui Treasure Land.

"Chun Yangzi’s Yang Dao stands alone, far too extreme. In battle, Liang Ming criticized him for ’solitary Yang cannot give birth’; the words were harsh, but the reasoning struck the vital point."

"Chun Yangzi is cursed in his learning; the Yang Fish has been at his side for years, yet he has never been able to touch the realm of ’Yang to its utmost gives birth to Yin’."

"But the Sun Raising Yang Locking Cloud Altar... the altar face bears the sun, the altar waist swallows cloud, the altar base suppresses fire."

"Within the Locking Yang Well are three Stabilizing Vein Copper Wedges, corresponding to sunlight, Fire Vein, and cloud root."

"Sunlight into the clouds, Fire Vein generating Yang, Cloud Qi supporting Sun."

Ning Zhuo’s expression grew ever more grave.

He now possessed the Grandmaster Realm of the Yang Dao, and within the Medicinal Power of the Pure Yang Ancestor Master Pill was contained the full text of the Pure Yang Pill Scripture—Ning Zhuo knew it inside and out!

"For Chun Yangzi, this place is absolutely not a mere Yang Dao cultivation treasure."

"What Chun Yangzi lacks is harmony."

"He needs to lock down Yang that is too blazing."

"He needs to keep Yang from dispersing or becoming agitated—able to be stored, nourished, and transformed—so that in its utmost flourishing it can finally give birth to a trace of Yin."

Chun Yangzi’s current realm is like a thick, heavy leg jumping, yet unable to clear a towering threshold. He needs assistance to help him cross this layer.

"But once he crosses this layer, exactly how much benefit can he harvest?"

In the end, Ning Zhuo still had no way to make a concrete estimate.

"Chun Yangzi and Liang Ming fighting so bitterly has already gone beyond the duties of a Great Village Chief. This precisely shows his desire for this place!"

"The real answer is not hard to find. As long as I explore the Sun Raising Yang Locking Cloud Altar thoroughly, I will be able to understand the true significance of this land to Chun Yangzi!"
