Chapter 422: Artifact Fragments Appear
Those who can cultivate to the Yuanxian realm and are at the pinnacle of Yuanxian are of course no pushovers.

Once a person like this makes a decision, he will not change it easily.

Even though they could feel that the True Dragon Yuanxian seemed to have the intention to retreat, the seven Yuanxian strongmen had already made up their minds to kill him and of course were unwilling to end it so hastily.

"Want to take my life? Before I die, I will drag a few people down with me!"

Zhenlong Yuanxian gnashed his teeth, his huge eyes revealed an extremely fierce look, and his tone was full of cruelty.

"Besides, I am a descendant of the true dragon, and I have a high status in the clan, so I naturally practiced the extremely advanced art of splitting my body! But most of you are probably dead, and there is no hope for you to survive!"

His words seemed to indicate that he was determined to fight for his life in a desperate situation, but in fact, he was retreating in order to intimidate the powerful Yuanxian warriors who were fighting with him.

Even if I die, I still have a clone. If you die, I'm afraid everything will be in vain!
However, he didn't know that the seven Yuanxian powerful men had already made up their minds and turned a deaf ear to their threats.

"Even if you have another clone, this one is the body of a real dragon. If you want to condense it again, the price will be unimaginably high! It's even unknown whether your clan will support you in reuniting the real dragon body!"

Immortal Master Mo Yun spoke in a cold voice, and it was obvious that he knew a lot about the rules within the dragon clan.

"This old man is about to die, but he still wants to shake our hearts. He is so cunning. He doesn't look like a dragon at all, but an old fox!"

"No matter how eloquent he is, he will be defeated today!"

"Without this true dragon body, even if he still has clones, his overall combat power will be greatly reduced. Coupled with the mistakes he made this time, his status in the dragon clan will also decline."

The seven powerful Yuanxian warriors were not ordinary people. They started to talk to each other and began to shake the fighting spirit of Zhenlong Zuxian.

Zhenlong Yuanxian has indeed reached a critical juncture at this time. When competing with people of the same realm, a sudden increase of 10% or 20% in the opponent's strength will cause a change in the situation.

What's more, the strength of Immortal Master Mo Yun and True Lord Yuan Ye has suddenly increased by nearly 50% on the basis of their previous strength!

"No, if this continues, I will be trapped in a cage in less than a quarter of an hour. I must escape first and wait for an opportunity to strike again."

The True Dragon Yuanxian felt the pressure like a mountain and finally didn't dare to continue wasting time. He immediately swept over with his huge dragon tail, trying to force the leading Immortal Mo Yun to retreat a distance.

"He wants to escape, Mo Yun, don't retreat, I will block the dragon's tail for you!"

True Lord Yuan Ye had a sharp gaze and immediately saw through the intention of True Dragon Yuanxian. While transmitting his telepathic message, he rushed forward and waved the top-grade immortal weapon in his hand to block the whistling golden dragon tail.

"It's really lively! Mo Yun, Yuan Ye, you came so quickly, it's really unexpected!"

"Seven great masters surrounded and beat up a powerful dragon clan warrior. Wow, what an intense battle! It makes people look forward to it!"

"As expected of a senior figure who became famous millions of years ago, he was able to suppress a real dragon and beat it up. I, the younger generation, really admire him very much!"

Just as the two sides were fighting fiercely, three loud voices suddenly rang out in succession and instantly spread throughout the entire secret space.

"Damn it! Yuhua Sect's Hong Mingzi, Taiqing Tianxuan Qing Xianzun, and Muye Clan's Muye Zhou, these three guys are here too!"

"These three major forces have been colluding with each other recently, and seem to be secretly plotting something, pretending to obey the Heavenly Court but secretly disobeying it... It turned out that they arrived first, we are really unlucky!"

When the seven Yuanxian powerful men heard these three voices, their faces immediately turned a little ugly.

"It seems that the three newcomers are not on good terms with them. But my luck has come... Good times come after bad times, as the saying goes!"

On the contrary, sensing their unhappy expressions, Zhenlong Yuanxian immediately realized that a turning point had occurred, and immediately changed his original intention to explode and retreat.

At the same time, in the core formation's central space.

Chai Xin has released Zhou Ling again, and is hiding in his divine kingdom, using all his strength to accelerate time and refine the essence of the many dragon ancestors he has harvested.

Although he was concentrating on refining the origin of the ancestral immortal in an attempt to reach a higher level, he did not forget to separate a trace of his spiritual thoughts and keep an eye on the movements of the myriad worlds.

Feeling the changes in the outside world, he immediately realized that three more powerful Yuanxian masters had arrived.

"Very good, the more chaotic the situation is, the better... It would be best if I could keep that old dragon. The Yuanxian origin of him alone is equivalent to dozens of ordinary Yuanxians!"

Not only did he not show any anxiety or panic about this, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

“Even if it’s not enough for me to enter the Yuanxian realm, it’s not far away. Plus, the other Yuanxians here are all top figures. If I can devour a few of them… maybe I’ll have a chance to break through two realms today and become a Yuanxian directly!”

His current strength is already comparable to that of the most powerful Yuanxian, even the real dragon outside is not stronger than him.

If he could enter the realm of Ancestral Immortal, his strength would surely surge again. Even if he could not compare with the legendary Saint Immortal by then, he should be truly invincible in the Yuan Immortal Realm!
In this way, if he could capture the True Dragon Yuanxian and a few Yuanxians, it would not be a fantasy for him to enter the Yuanxian realm in one fell swoop.

It is a rare event in ten thousand years to have so many talented Yuanxian people gather together at one time. It can be said that Chai Xin is very lucky to be able to encounter it.

"In a few minutes, I will be able to refine all of them and reach the Ancestral Immortal realm. Then I can hunt as I please..."

After suppressing his somewhat restless thoughts, Chai Xin calmed down again and continued to move forward towards the realm of Ancestral Immortal with determination.

At this time, the situation outside had completely changed.

With the arrival of three Yuanxian powerful men from Yuhua Sect, Taiqingtian and Muye Family, the seven Yuanxian under the Jade Emperor immediately realized that the situation was hopeless.

Even though they had completely suppressed the True Dragon Yuanxian, it would still take some effort to suppress it.

During this process, there is no guarantee that those three will not take the opportunity to interfere.

For a strong man in the Yuanxian realm, a breath is enough to do many things, not to mention the gap between the fierce battles between the two sides.

The seven great immortals withdrew from the battle unwillingly and cautiously, and the formation of the Jade Emperor's Seven Absolute Formations returned to its original state, becoming harmonious and perfect, integrating offense and defense.

For a while, the core area became a three-way confrontation, and unexpectedly ushered in a rare peace.

This kind of calmness may seem incredible, but it is actually inevitable. The three parties are wary of each other, and no one is sure to take down the other party in an instant, so of course they will not act rashly.

However, this is just the calm before the storm.

Everyone knows that once the fragments of the artifact of creation appear in the world, this delicate balance will be immediately broken.

Even as more and more powerful people from various forces gather, the fighting between them will become more brutal.

In this situation, the happiest person is naturally the True Dragon Immortal.

He had been at the end of his rope, and was even on the verge of losing his true dragon body. But now, not only did he survive, but he also once again had the opportunity to participate in the fight for the fragments of the artifact of creation.

Although I am already an expert, but in terms of individual strength, it is really difficult to find someone who can match him in the same realm.

If the final battle comes, there may be a chance. Now, the figure of the True Dragon Yuanxian has disappeared in the core area.

But everyone knew that he could not retreat just like that. He must have hidden deep in the void, ready to launch a thundering attack at any time.

At this time, it has been nearly an hour since the secret realm was opened, and more than half an hour since the dragon army arrived.

Soon, strong men from various forces began to arrive one after another.

Sanqing Mountain, Taixuan Dao, Hunyuan Sect, Cangxuan Sword Sect, Xuanyuan Family...

Each of them is an almighty force that has produced a Heavenly Sovereign. The Yuanxian they sent are naturally the best of their level and are extremely powerful.

Among these people, there are even some who can rival Immortal Venerable Mo Yun and True Lord Yuan Ye.

At this time, the only remaining advantage of the seven Yuanxians under the Jade Emperor was the relatively high level of trust among them.

However, it is also impossible to predict whether the other factions can reach an agreement and trust each other.

And because of the attitude of the seven of them advancing and retreating together, some powerful people from other major forces have begun to secretly look for old friends to form an alliance.

Although there are many grudges between the major forces, there are also some that are close to each other.

As for individual monks, it is possible that they have close personal relationships with each other, and it is normal for them to form alliances at critical moments.

Moreover, they all learned from their respective disciples that there was a True Dragon Immortal hiding in the dark, so they naturally became more vigilant.

No matter how conceited a genius is, he cannot ignore a true dragon of the same level.

The fragments of the artifact of creation should not have such a strong attraction. Even though they are priceless treasures to Yuanxian, many powerful people are not idle people and have a lot of things to deal with.

The direct reason why so many powerful people came here at once was the invasion of the dragon army.

In addition, there are rumors that the inheritance of Saint Emperor Guiyuan is stored in this fragment of the artifact of creation.

If this is true, then the value of this fragment is even more astonishing.

The inheritance of a half-step Heavenly Monarch is naturally very attractive. If the rumor was not too vague and unfounded, I am afraid that even some saints and immortals would come to hear the news.

After a short while, the number of Yuanxian powerful warriors gathered in the core area had reached sixteen.

These people have basically found companions and formed alliances with each other to avoid being at a disadvantage in the subsequent battles.

"Boom..."

Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, a roar of thunder suddenly sounded from the depths of the void.

Even though the Golden Immortals and Ancestral Immortals had retreated far away, they were still shocked by the thunder and saw stars in their eyes and their blood was boiling.

"It is about to be born. Just a trace of its aura makes our hearts beat faster! If we can get the fragments of the divine weapon of creation, we may be able to comprehend the realm of unity between heaven and earth..."

“Hehe, the world is one… That is a realm that many king-grade immortal tools and supreme immortals aspire to reach. If anyone can truly comprehend it, he will surely be immediately appointed as the sect’s deputy headmaster and receive endless resources!”

"You are dreaming. You are lucky to be able to comprehend a little of the true meaning of destiny through the fragments. How can you still dream of becoming one with heaven and earth? If you have that kind of understanding, would it be so difficult for you to break through to become a saint?"

All the powerful Yuanxian masters focused their attention and stared at the void behind the king-level spiritual vein.

The reason why the fragments of the artifact of creation are precious is that they carry the true meaning of creation and the mysterious realm of the unity of heaven and earth.

Of course, being able to comprehend the true meaning of creation is already a one in a million opportunity; as for achieving unity of heaven and earth, that is something that only one person can achieve once in tens of millions of years.

If one can cultivate the unity of heaven and earth, as long as there are sufficient resources, in time one will surely become a Half-Step Heavenly Monarch and be able to live as long as heaven and earth.

The so-called unity of heaven and earth is the basis for living as long as heaven and earth.

Even achieving the level of Supreme Heavenly Sovereign is not impossible.

Which major power would not value such a peerless genius? Even the Lingxiao Palace, the first fairy palace in the heaven, would treat him as a treasure!

Although these Yuanxian powerful men are very familiar with their own situations, who can help but have some thoughts about the future?
If they did not have this thought, they would not have to participate in various open struggles. They could just entertain themselves in the vast world of God and live out their lives.

The lifespan of a powerful Yuanxian, even in the fairy world, has reached hundreds of millions of years!
However, it is extremely rare for a Yuanxian to actually die of old age, one in ten thousand.

After all, it is almost impossible for someone to cultivate to this level and yet not be competitive at all.

Unless due to some changes, one completely loses the desire to practice Taoism, one will seek a safe place to spend the rest of his life quietly.

Most of the cultivators have an endless desire to reach a higher realm, so they are bound to fight and contend, and premature death becomes the norm.

During the long years, even if you don't wander around, accidents will still happen to you, not to mention fighting everywhere?

So much so that the immortals who can live for tens of millions of years can be called antiques.

Beings like Immortal Master Mo Yun and True Lord Yuan Ye, who have lived for millions of years, are already great seniors in the same realm.

"Buzz!"

Just as everyone was holding their breath, the void deep in the royal spirit vein suddenly twisted violently, erupting with extremely violent space fluctuations.

The next moment, countless divine clouds spread out from the depths of the void, and endless light instantly enveloped the entire secret realm. Everyone felt a breath of ancient and wildness coming towards them.

“It is indeed a fragment of a divine artifact of creation!”

"It's out in the world! The fragments are really out in the world!"

"Don't be impatient. He hasn't fully emerged yet. If you rush over now, you will be hurt by the residual power!"

In an instant, the core area, which was originally silent and could hear a pin drop, erupted into excited shouts.

Even though those present were all geniuses among the Yuanxian, they could not help but feel unable to control their emotions when faced with a fragment of a divine artifact that could change their fate.

But overall everyone remained calm, and no one rushed forward frantically to collect the debris.

Not only are they afraid of the residual power that the fragments will bring when they are released, but more importantly, everyone knows that everyone is eyeing them covetously. Whoever steps forward first will inevitably be surrounded by enemies.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to be so humble in front of such a treasure. I won't be polite then!"
