Chapter 1342: In Hand
Though Yang Yan bore immense pressure and slowly entered the Land of Primordial Magnetism with the help of various forces, he did not know where the Magnetic Marrow was located.
Fortunately, after gradual exploration, Yang Yan realized that this place had the strongest repulsive power against magical artifacts, but less so against his body.
As he continued to adapt, Yang Yan locked onto the area with the most concentrated Primordial Magnetic Power and gradually approached it.
While Yang Yan was exploring, a peak eroded by Primordial Magnetic Power, filled with dense Primordial Magnetic Power, roared towards him.
Faced with the sudden crisis, Yang Yan was not surprised. He quickly used his corporeal strength, gathered power in his feet, and suddenly soared into the air, swinging his iron fist towards the peak.
As he soared, the ground beneath his feet cracked and exploded, instantly forming a giant pit.
In contrast, Yang Yan had already reached the vicinity of the Primordial Magnetic Peak ahead of time, using all his strength to shatter it with a single punch.
Whoosh—
A flash of light, a shadow darted out from the center of the explosion.
Yang Yan quickly reached out and grasped it firmly in his hand.
Once he landed, Yang Yan slowly opened his hand to find something resembling a Crystal Stone, infused with Primordial Magnetic Power.
Magnetic Crystal!
A gleam of joy flashed in Yang Yan’s eyes, as he possibly tucked it into his pocket.
With newfound experience, Yang Yan gazed intensely at the Primordial Magnetic Peaks in the sky.
He licked his somewhat dry lips and suddenly exerted force with his feet, flying towards the peaks.
Yang Yan moved like a swift monkey among the peaks, constantly striking and shattering them one by one.
As more peaks were shattered, Yang Yan gradually discovered a pattern.
The more concentrated the Primordial Magnetic Power on a peak, the better the quality of its Magnetic Crystals.
After collecting some Magnetic Crystals, Yang Yan couldn’t help focusing on the peaks containing concentrated Primordial Magnetic Power.
Yang Yan directly used his corporeal strength to rush towards those peaks, but unexpectedly encountered difficulties in front of a peak with especially intense power fluctuations.
Yang Yan exerted eighty percent of his strength, but only left a deep fist mark on it and was bounced away by a terrifying countershock, forming a half-meter deep pit on the ground.
Yang Yan steadied his mind, preparing to mobilize spiritual power to heal, when suddenly a surge of Primordial Magnetic Power erupted inside him.
Yang Yan’s vital energy and blood were suddenly in disarray, causing his mind to reel.
Realizing the danger, Yang Yan quickly suppressed his vital energy, randomly grabbed handfuls of pills, and swallowed them.
However, as he spent more time in the Land of Primordial Magnetism, his body was significantly affected. Though no obvious damage appeared, the absorption speed of the pills slowed considerably.
After spending half an hour recovering, Yang Yan again focused on the peaks with the most intense power fluctuations.
Since he was here, there was no reason to leave the Treasure Mountain empty-handed.
Thus, Yang Yan once more charged at one of those peaks.
With prior experience, Yang Yan abandoned the assistance of spiritual power and even refrained from using Wish Power, attacking solely with physical strength.
Indeed!
Though his iron fist still suffered immense recoil, it was clearly better than before.
Without further hesitation, Yang Yan struck with both fists, continuously pounding his target.
After a full half hour, when Yang Yan’s whole body was cracked and the Primordial Magnetic Power within was barely suppressible, he finally successfully blasted the peak apart, obtaining a palm-sized piece of Magnetic Marrow.
Yang Yan rubbed the hard-won treasure, a deep smile appearing on his face.
Knowing he couldn’t linger here long, he quickly took some more pills, then contentedly carried the Magnetic Marrow towards the outside world.
...
Vast Sea, where the Thousand Feather Sect’s headquarters is located, at the place where the Life Tokens are stored.
The Golden Core cultivator guarding the Life Tokens was cultivating when he suddenly heard something shattering.
The Golden Core cultivator quickly opened his eyes and looked towards the source of the Life Tokens.
He saw the thin Life Token suddenly shatter, the soul fluctuation vanished completely, causing the old man’s expression to dramatically change.
He immediately sounded the alarm, informing the high-ranking members of the Thousand Feather Sect.
Soon after, another hunchbacked elder’s Life Token also exploded, with soul fluctuations weakening, leading Sect Leader Ning Tianya to rush over personally upon hearing the news.
As soon as Ning Tianya arrived, all the elders present prepared to salute, but Ning Tianya waved them off, indicating it was unnecessary.
Seeing Ning Tianya look intently at the seemingly breaking Life Token, no one dared to breathe too loudly.
The elder in charge of the tokens was about to say something when he suddenly noticed the hunchbacked elder’s not-yet-completely-shattered Life Token’s soul fluctuations suddenly strengthening, making his face sink.
Indeed!
As a brilliant light shone, the Life Token suddenly shattered entirely, turning to powder and causing the soul fluctuation to vanish without a trace.
Ning Tianya’s face darkened, then he solemnly said, "Summon all elders to the main hall for a meeting. If any elder refuses to comply, execute them!"
Then, with a ripple in the Void, Ning Tianya disappeared from sight.
Meanwhile, urgent bell rings echoed throughout the sect.
Moments later, inside the Thousand Feather Sect’s council hall, numerous elders had already gathered.
Their expressions varied, each secretly transmitting thoughts, guessing the reason for the urgent meeting.
Seeing everyone present, Ning Tianya’s voice was low as he said, "A hundred years ago, during conflicts with opposing forces, our sect was severely weakened, the Nascent Soul cultivators fell and suffered losses, leaving only four Supreme Elders. Now, the Extinct Elders went to explore the reasons for the disturbances in the Chaotic Star Sea but have now both perished. How can our sect tolerate such rampant forces?"
As Ning Tianya saw the expressions of the people in the hall change, he continued, "The Thousand Feather Sect’s prestige cannot fall; I intend to unify the Chaotic Star Sea, to honor the Extinct Elders."
With the sect leader’s decree and the incident with the Extinct Elders causing sympathetic distress, the elders naturally raised no objections, all displaying a unified resolve against a common enemy.
Ning Tianya nodded approvingly, then gathered the sect’s cultivators, assembling the remaining forces of the Zheng Family, and deployed formations to attack the Li Family and Mo Family...
At this time, Yang Yan was on the edge of the Land of Mist healing, unaware of this.
Once Yang Yan expelled the Primordial Magnetic Power from his body and restored his injuries, he finally had the mind to take out the Magnetic Marrow for careful examination.
The Magnetic Marrow shone like a beautiful gem with brilliant light, its surface periodically glimmering with a trace of Primordial Magnetic Power.
Yang Yan nodded in satisfaction, carefully tucking it away, then displayed his form, transforming into a streak of light headed towards the Chaotic Star Sea.
Two hours later, having hurried along at full speed, Yang Yan finally emerged from the mist.
Yang Yan glanced back, feeling a bit apprehensive.
He saw a place not covered by mist, where armored puppets emitted the aura of Divinity Transformation cultivators.
And there was a blood-stained coffin; just a glance made him feel as though facing a prehistoric beast.
Yang Yan steadied his mind, discerned his direction, and flew towards Chaotic Star Island.
