Seven Mysterious Spaces: My Rise to Power in the Cultivation World

Chapter 203 Returning with a Full Load



Chapter 203 Returning with a Full Load

Zhuang Yu was at the center of the restrictive light, and the ancient and majestic warning echoed in his ears, like ancient thunder shaking his soul.

The invisible force pressed down on him like a giant mountain, making it difficult for him to breathe.

The blood that spilled from the corner of his mouth stained his white robe like a glaring red flower, but it only highlighted the determination in his eyes.

The secrets and rare resources within the celestial palace seemed so close at hand; he would never back down now!

He gritted his teeth, his spiritual energy surging like a mighty river.

That yearning burned like a raging fire in every inch of his flesh and blood.

Just then, two angry roars broke the silence.

Jin Yangzi and Mu Zi finally recovered from their shock. Their eyes, filled with resentment and anger, glared at Zhuang Yu with a sinister malice.

They would never allow this unknown kid to steal the opportunity that should have been theirs!

"Boy, don't even think about succeeding!" Jin Yangzi roared, and the long sword in his hand burst out with dazzling light, whistling as it pierced straight into Zhuang Yu's back.

Mu Zi was not to be outdone. She flashed and transformed into a black shadow, attacking from the side, her short blade gleaming with a cold, eerie light.

Faced with the two attacking him from both sides, Zhuang Yu curled up a disdainful sneer.

He stood motionless within the protective light, like a rock.

Previously, he could easily crush the two of them; now, he no longer needs to tolerate it.

It's time to finally deal with these two clowns.

He suddenly looked up, his deep eyes flashing with a bloodthirsty light, like a sleeping beast that had finally opened its eyes.

He stopped defending himself and instead went to meet them head-on.

He raised his hand, and a ball of blazing flame suddenly condensed in his palm. The flame had an eerie purple color and emitted a chillingly hot aura.

Jin Yangzi and Mu Zi were startled; they had never seen such a bizarre flame before.

But with the arrow already on the bowstring, they had no choice but to charge forward, gritting their teeth.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two loud bangs, accompanied by shrill screams, echoed outside the empty celestial palace.

Flames clashed with swords, sparking dazzling sparks that illuminated the surrounding space.

Jin Yangzi and Mu Zi were sent flying backward like kites with broken strings, spitting out blood and their faces as pale as paper.

"You are too weak." Zhuang Yu's tone was calm, yet it carried a suffocating sense of oppression.

He slowly raised his hand, purple flames dancing in his palm, as if they could devour everything at any moment.

His gaze fell into the depths of the celestial palace, and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

"Now comes the main event," he muttered to himself, his tone filled with excitement and anticipation. Then, he moved.

Purple flames surged in Zhuang Yu's hand, like a nimble dragon, emitting a deep roar.

His eyes were slightly closed, and he was chanting incantations. Ancient and obscure spells came from his mouth, each syllable containing powerful energy, as if they were mysterious chants from ancient times.

The surrounding air began to distort, and a suffocating pressure spread out. Even the space itself seemed unable to withstand this power and began to tremble slightly.

Suddenly, Zhuang Yu opened his eyes, his gaze flashing with a sharp light. The purple flames in his hand suddenly expanded, transforming into a giant fire dragon that roared as it charged toward Jin Yangzi and Mu Zi.

Wherever the fire dragon passed, space distorted, leaving behind streaks of pitch-black cracks.

Jin Yangzi and Mu Zi's expressions changed drastically. They tried to dodge, but found that their bodies seemed to be imprisoned and they could not move at all.

He could only watch helplessly as the fire dragon hurtled towards him, feeling its destructive aura drawing ever closer.

"No! No!" Jin Yangzi roared in despair, her voice shrill and piercing, like a wail from hell.

The fire dragon instantly engulfed the two, and a huge explosion resounded through the heavens and earth, illuminating the entire celestial palace with blinding flames.

When the firelight died down, Jin Yangzi and Mu Zi were found lying on the ground, barely alive. Their bodies were charred black and emitted a nauseating smell of burning.

Just then, the guardians of the Celestial Palace made their move.

It let out a deafening roar, and its body shot towards Zhuang Yu like lightning. The huge stone sword in its hand carried the power to split the heavens and the earth, and slashed fiercely at Zhuang Yu.

Zhuang Yu remained calm and dodged the stone sword's attack with a swift movement.

A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips, and he once again conjured a ball of purple flame in his hand, heading towards the guardian of the celestial palace.

The collision of their spiritual energies produced a deafening roar, and the surrounding space trembled violently, as if it were about to collapse at any moment.

The dazzling light illuminated the entire celestial palace, making it impossible to look directly at it.

The fierce battle lasted for a long time, with Zhuang Yu and the guardians of the Immortal Palace exchanging blows, neither able to gain the upper hand.

Just then, Zhuang Yu

Zhuang Yu, a confident smile playing on his lips, slowly opened the wooden box.

Inside the box lay a jet-black dagger, its body crackling with purple arcs of electricity, emanating a chilling aura.

This is the artifact he obtained in the mysterious space—the Soul Destroyer.

The moment he obtained the Soul Extinction, Zhuang Yu felt a powerful force surge into his body. His blood seemed to boil, and an unprecedentedly powerful feeling filled his entire body.

He raised the Soul Extinction dagger high, and the purple arcs of electricity on the dagger instantly surged, transforming into ferocious thunder dragons that roared as they charged toward the guardians of the Immortal Palace.

The guardian of the celestial palace felt the pressure of Soul Extinction; however, the power of Soul Extinction far exceeded its expectations.

The thunder dragon swept through the stone sword's defenses with unstoppable force, shattering it instantly and slamming into the guardian of the celestial palace.

With a deafening boom, the Celestial Palace Guardian's massive body was blasted away, crashing heavily to the ground with a painful howl.

Its body was covered in charred marks and emitted a strong smell of burnt flesh, clearly indicating that it had been severely injured.

Holding the Soul Extinguisher, Zhuang Yu walked step by step toward the guardian of the Immortal Palace, each step seemingly treading on its nerves, instilling deep fear in it.

His eyes were icy as he looked down at the guardians of the Celestial Palace as if they were ants, and he said in a chilling tone, "Submit, or die."

The guardian of the palace struggled to stand up, but its body was so badly damaged that it could not move at all.

Zhuang Yu nodded in satisfaction and put away the Soul Extinction device.

He turned to look into the depths of the celestial palace, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

He knew that the true treasures of the celestial palace were still waiting for him.

Upon entering the Immortal Palace, Zhuang Yu's mind conjured up the image of Wang Yao.

That gentle and kind girl always silently stayed by his side, giving everything for him.

A warm feeling welled up in his heart, and a sense of responsibility arose spontaneously.

He secretly vowed to obtain enough resources to give Wang Yao the best life.

Thinking of this, Zhuang Yu vaguely sensed that something was waiting for him in the deepest part of the Immortal Palace...

"What secrets does this celestial palace hold?" Zhuang Yu murmured to himself, pushing open a heavy stone door...

Pushing open the stone door, Zhuang Yu was stunned by the sight before him.

The treasures, piled high like mountains, shone with a dazzling array of colors, illuminating the entire treasure pavilion.

The air was filled with a rich spiritual energy that was refreshing and invigorating.

He took a deep breath and felt the spiritual energy within his body stirring, as if it were about to burst out.

He strode to the front of the treasure mountain, his gaze sweeping over the precious magical artifacts one by one, finally settling on three treasures that exuded a powerful aura.

The first item was a long sword that was pure white, with a chilling aura emanating from its blade. The hilt was engraved with a lifelike ice phoenix pattern, and a sharp sword intent emanated from it.

The second item was an antique bronze mirror, its surface smooth as jade, reflecting Zhuang Yu's slightly excited face.

Mysterious runes surround the bronze mirror, giving it an ancient and weathered aura.

The third item was a crystal-clear bead, inside which seemed to contain a miniature universe, twinkling with starlight, and exuding an aura of vastness and immensity.

Zhuang Yu was overjoyed. He knew that these three treasures were all top-tier magic weapons, each of which was enough to drive a Nascent Soul cultivator crazy.

Besides these three magical treasures, he also discovered an advanced cultivation technique.

This cultivation technique is called the "Chaos Technique," and it is said that one can cultivate it to the Tribulation Transcending stage.

Zhuang Yu carefully put away the cultivation technique, his heart filled with anticipation.

With this technique

After acquiring the three magical treasures and the "Chaos Technique," Zhuang Yu wore a satisfied smile.

This trip to the Celestial Palace was very fruitful, far exceeding his expectations.

He was in a good mood as he prepared to leave the treasure pavilion.

Just then, an aged voice suddenly rang out in the treasure pavilion: "Young man, having obtained so many treasures, do you think you can just leave like this?"

Zhuang Yu's heart tightened, and he turned around abruptly. He saw an old man in a gray robe with white hair and beard appear behind him at some point.

The old man had a kind face, but there was a subtle glint in his eyes.

The old man slowly walked up to Zhuang Yu, looked him up and down, and said slowly, "You are quite good. You have reached the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm at such a young age, and you have also gained the recognition of the Immortal Palace."

Zhuang Yu was wary inside, but outwardly remained calm and respectfully asked, "Who are you, senior?"

The old man smiled slightly and said, "I am the guardian of this celestial palace."

"A guardian?" Zhuang Yu wondered. The guardian of the Immortal Palace he had encountered before was a huge stone statue. How could it have turned into the old man in front of him?

The old man seemed to see through Zhuang Yu's doubts and explained, "That stone statue is just an avatar that I created with my spiritual power. The true guardian has always been me."

Zhuang Yu suddenly realized what was going on, and felt even more awe for the old man's identity.

The old man continued, "Young man, you have received the inheritance of the Immortal Palace and will surely become a powerful figure in the future. I hope you will make good use of these treasures and not disappoint the expectations of the Immortal Palace."

Zhuang Yu nodded in agreement.

The old man nodded in satisfaction, then changed the subject, saying, "However, these treasures aren't given to you for free; you need to complete a task..."
