Excluding Three Foot Mountain's Golden Crow Incinerating Heaven Sabre, Qing Shuzi's Dark Dragon Whip and Daoist Leading Mist's Bright Barbaric Daoist robes, Yan Zhaoge had obtained seven high-grade Sacred Artifacts from the martial practitioners of the south.
Not even mentioning the people he had killed, just taking these spoils of war from the south was already a great blow to the vitality of the southern Blazing Heaven Territory.
Under Golden Court Mountain's lead, the martial practitioners of the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory launched their follow-up attacks on the south very smoothly.
Not only did Golden Court Mountain completely suppress Wutong Slope, but the other southeastern martial artists also had the upper hand against the southern martial artists.
This was especially so as they followed the route of Circumference Mountain, the Announcing Peace Mountain Range and the Vast Yue Mound Plains all the way west, following the path that Yan Zhaoge had taken to return east once more. The martial practitioners of the southeast were relaxed and happy on their journey.
Having already been plowed through by Yan Zhaoge once, it would be very hard for the martial practitioners of the south to organise a strong resistance.
"The quality is very good." Looking at the Five Phoenix Fan in his hands, Yan Zhaoge could not help but laugh, "I'm used to being extravagant. A prodigal like me will probably incur the wrath of many."
After recuperating for some time, Yan Zhaoge gradually regained his vitality.
After feeling that he had finished his preparations once more, Yan Zhaoge sent the Five Phoenix Fan into the slot of the Dim Radiant Wheel where the Wilderness Devouring Art was inscribed.
At this moment, Yan Zhaoge no longer had to attack as he stimulated the Dim Radiant Wheel to counterattack.
Currently, he was already gradually establishing some sort of connection with the Dim Radiant Wheel.
With just a thought, the Dim Radiant Wheel shook slightly. While it was not completely obeying Yan Zhaoge's instructions, the Five Phoenix Fan that had been delivered to its doorstep was still swallowed of its own accord this time.
The concept contained within the Five Phoenix Fan manifested the silhouette of a phoenix amidst the cosmic space within the aperture of the Dim Radiant Wheel.
The Dim Radiant Wheel moved slightly, but not intensely.
Yan Zhaoge knew that it was the Ever Bright Art of the Dim Radiant Twelve Arts at work.
Everbright, the eighth art of the Dim Radiant Twelve Arts.
In the past, the scriptures of the Radiant Sect of the Sea of Imperial Reed, the Radiant Illumination Art, originated from this.
This included the Inextinguishable Radiant Body, the Endless Radiant Palm, and other secret arts.
Light always shines, eternal and inextinguishable.
A cultivator's breath was long and steady, and their true essence was vigorous. They were good at protracted battles, and at the same time, their defensive power was extremely strong.
Some of the characteristics of the concept were similar to Wutong Slope's Phoenix True Form Scripture. Although it was not as good as the Phoenix True Form Scripture, it was still very outstanding.
However, although the external characteristics were similar, the underlying principles were fundamentally different.
Therefore, after the initial tremors, the Dim Radiant Wheel fell silent once more.
The way to refine this Celestial Artifact was to figure out and refine the principles and intents of the other Celestial Artifact to improve oneself, not to dissect and dissect the other Celestial Artifact.
Therefore, when the target was unable to improve itself, it would not make any moves.
The current Five Phoenix Fan and the Purple Sea Sword were both because of this.
Still, Yan Zhaoge had only been using this Five Phoenix Fan as a medium and bridge in the first place, supplying his martial concept to the Dim Radiant Wheel.
However, it was not the Peerless Heavenly Scripture.
The reason was none other than the fact that the Peerless Heavenly Scripture was too profound.
Firstly, Yan Zhaoge himself was still in the midst of unceasingly studying and comprehending. Secondly, the Peerless Heavenly Scripture was far superior to the final art of the Dim Radiant Twelve Arts, the art of peerless infinity.
If they were to blindly merge them, it was very likely that the Peerless Heavenly Scripture would turn the tables on them.
However, the foundation of the Dim Radiant Wheel was the Dim Radiant Twelve Arts in the end.
With the Peerless Heavenly Scripture as the foundation, Yan Zhaoge who had yet to push open the door to Immortality would not be able to successfully forge an Immortal Artifact.
The final result of this would be both sides suffering heavy losses as they all parted ways.
Still, as Yan Zhaoge's cultivation base grew higher and higher, the Dim Radiant Wheel also nearing completion, it would be best if things could turn for the better at that final moment.
Therefore, Yan Zhaoge was currently providing another supreme martial art to the Dim Radiant Wheel.
The Dark Moon Pill Scripture.
The target he was aiming for this time was the fifth art of the Dim Radiant Twelve Arts, the art of Extreme Yin.
This art was cultivated in by martial practitioners, using the cold, tranquil nature of Extreme Yin to cause life force to wither and the soul to wither. It was one of the few sinister arts of the Dim Radiant Twelve Arts, being close to the devilish dao.
When used against enemies, it would formlessly harm them.
It was worth mentioning that it was countered by the art of Extreme Yang of the Dim Radiant Twelve Arts to a certain extent.
Meanwhile, a portion of the Dark Moon Pill Scripture had a similar effect.
Yan Zhaoge's understanding of the internal history of the Dim Radiant Sect following the Great Calamity was comparatively limited.
Still, having read through the art of Extreme Yin of the Dim Radiant Twelve Arts, he vaguely had a feeling.
The seniors of the Dim Radiant Sect or Yin Tianxia himself had most likely obtained a remnant version of the Dark Moon Pill Scripture, combining it with their martial arts as a result, finally producing the art of Extreme Yin.
The Dark Moon Pill Scripture did not merely expound on those brutal, vicious concepts.
Still, the remnant version that the Dim Radiant Sect had obtained seemed to only touch upon these.
Now that Yan Zhaoge was providing the complete Dark Moon Pill Scripture, the fifth of the Dim Radiant Twelve Arts would be able to advance to the next level, its foundation becoming more robust as it would no longer be a completely unorthodox sword.
Seeing yet another hole on the black metal wheel from which a deathly pale, cold radiance was projected, the corners of Yan Zhaoge's mouth arched upwards.
Of the two holes that were right next to each other, one emanating vast, majestic sunlight while the other emanated cold, tranquil moonlight as they seemed rather unique in their own right.
Yan Zhaoge's following days were extremely fulfilling.
Or he would study and comprehend Yan Di's Grand Simplicity Splendour Cloud, concentrating on his cultivation.
Or he would attempt to refine the Dim Radiant Wheel.
Ever since returning to Broad Creed Mountain, Yan Zhaoge had virtually not left the Mountain at all as he had been fully focused on his cultivation.
Having just stirred up a storm in the World beyond Worlds, he instead quietened down.
Broad Creed Mountain seemed to have become low-key as well. Not only did they seldom participate in the attacks of the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory against the southern Blazing Heaven Territory, they did not make any major movements even in the Royal Reed Sea.
The only relatively major disturbance was that Broad Creed Mountain's Chief, Yan Di, had successfully ascended the Immortal Bridge.
Apart from that, it was exceptionally peaceful.
It was just that no one in the entire World beyond Worlds would underestimate Yan Zhaoge and Broad Creed Mountain now.
At the same time, many people were actually waiting.
Waiting for the Southern Exalt Zhuang Shen to return to Phoenix Ritual Mountain's Wutong Slope.
Waiting for the Heaven Emperor to return to Kunlun Mountain's Illusory Coming Peak.
At that time, whether Yan Zhaoge and Broad Creed Mountain were a newly risen legend or a short-lived shooting star would truly be revealed.
Whether it was Wutong Slope who was currently badly battered by Golden Court Mountain or Illusory Coming Peak who had remained silent after the deaths of Qing Shuzi and Daoist Leading Mist, they were probably all waiting for that moment as well.
In the World beyond Worlds, five years had passed since the battle at Circumference Mountain.
Within a cave manor on Broad Creed Mountain, Yan Zhaoge sat facing Yan Di and Yan Di.
"I intend to make another trip to the Vast Ocean World." Yan Zhaoge said calmly, "I cannot be sure when the Heaven Emperor will return or when the Southern Exalt will return. Still, I will do it as soon as possible."
Yan Di nodded, "Go ahead."
Yan Zhaoge said, "During this period of time, I will have to trouble you and the sect to help me investigate something."
He handed over a jade slip to Yan Di, "Carefully measure the flow of the earth veins of the Royal Reed Sea according to the methods and procedures laid out within. See if you can discover anything special."
"Similar to the Heaven Bearing Efficate Formation …" Yan Di raised his brows as he roughly read through it and saw some clues.
Yan Zhaoge lightly tapped his temple, "Many a time, returning to the very beginning, the solution to a problem might be hidden there."
