Hao Ren flew up with this treasure slowly and was astonished when the magnificent Dragon God Shrine collapsed into debris.

The Dragon God Shrine which had been the unrivaled and magnificent organization of the Dragon Tribe collapsed in the blink of an eye.

Even if the Dragon Tribe established another central organization, it would never be as magnificent as the Dragon God Shrine.

With Hao Ren taking out this treasure, the Dragon God Shrine lost its support since all the nature essence supporting it was from this treasure.

All the array formations lost the power that propelled them.

All the Dragon God Shrine’s laws, inspectors, contribution points, dharma treasures, techniques, and heavenly prison became history.

Swoosh! Swoosh… The nine Deputy Shrine Masters dashed out from the debris and watched the quick collapse of the building with regret.

The price of returning this ultimate treasure to the East Ocean Dragon Palace was the collapse of the Dragon God Shrine!

With the treasure gone, the emerging Dragon God Shrine which could recruit all the talented dragon cultivators and overpower other dragon clans collapsed with all its glory.

Boom… The large platform hovering in the high sky lost the support and fell into the nearby sea.

The huge waves surged up and flooded the nearby hills!

In the distant villages, people saw water suddenly flowing up the rivers from the sea and destroying ancient stone bridges.

Hovering in the air beside Hao Ren, Xie Yujia was astonished at the scene as well.

“Shrine Master!”

When the nine Deputy Shrine Masters saw the Shrine Master falling with the Dragon God Shrine into the sea, they cried out in alarm.

Ever since the establishment of the Dragon God Shrine, the mighty Shrine Master had been cultivating quietly in the secret chamber on the top floor and never set his foot outside of the building.

“Did he…” Alarmed, they were about to dive into the sea to find him when a black figure dashed out from the ocean!

“Shrine Master!” The nine Deputy Shrine Masters cried out in surprise.

A few days ago, the Shrine Master had sent out all the inspectors and delivered all the prisoners in the Heavenly Prison to their respective dragon clans.

It seemed that he had expected Hao Ren to come and take back the ultimate treasure. Otherwise, Hao Ren wouldn’t be able to take back this treasure with such ease!

“Kui who never comes out of the shrine is finally out!” A dash of light appeared, and the teasing words resonated in the sky.

“There is no Dragon God Shrine left. How can I come out if the shrine doesn’t exist? The Shrine Master flew up into the clouds in a black light while he answered.

“Hahaha! That’s a good excuse. You technically didn’t come out of the shrine; the shrine just collapsed around you!” The pleasant voice resonated in the sky before she continued, “Hao Ren, I got a message from Congming, and he asked me to sustain your grandma’s life. As to this little stick, you must refine it into your natal dharma treasure if you want to use it freely!”

Swoosh! With these words said, the light vanished in the direction of East Ocean.

“Auntie, thank you for the tip!” Hao Ren shouted out in a loud voice even though Lady Zhen might not hear him.

After reaching the Four-Petal Realm, he now truly understood the great power of Lady Zhen who was at the Six-Petal Realm

Shrine Master whose name was ‘Kui’ paused in the high sky for a second before flying toward East Ocean as well with high speed.

Heavenly Dragon!

Judging by his speed and aura, Hao Ren knew that the Shrine Master was as powerful as him if not stronger!

The nine Deputy Shrine Masters followed the Shrine Master, flying toward East Ocean at full speed.

Although the Dragon God Shrine was gone, the Shrine Master was still their leader!

” Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar 1 …”

Standing beside Hao Ren, Xie Yujia read the characters in a low voice.

Hao Ren followed her gaze and saw these ancient golden characters appearing on the silver surface of the huge pillar – Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar!

It was the legendary ancient treasure left by Da Yu 2 after controlling the giant floods! The weapon of the legendary Monkey King!

It was an ancient sacred item no less than the ten godly items stored in the Nine Dragon Palace! However, since it wasn’t a real dharma treasure and must be used to suppress the devil essence in the East Ocean Dragon Palace, it hadn’t been taken into the Nine Dragon Palace!

Without any superpowers, the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar was only a massive pillar that emitted primitive nature essence and could pacify the ocean!

It was more of a giant ancient pillar than a dharma treasure; it was the perfect material for making dharma treasures since no other treasures could break it!

Xie Yujia was more surprised than Hao Ren since this famous legendary treasure had landed in Hao Ren’s hands. Lady Zhen even suggested Hao Ren refine it into his natal dharma treasure!

This legendary weapon didn’t have any unique powers except for changing its size. The only other feature was its great weight.

In terms of superpowers, it was no match for the Kunlun Godly Lamp which was once used by Duan Yao!

“Withdraw!”

Hao Ren released a violent wave of nature essence from his arm, but the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar remained motionless as if the nature essence had sunk into the ocean without a trace. Aside from pulling it up, Hao Ren couldn’t do anything with it.

Thinking back to his grandma who was still in danger and the vortex of devil essence in East Ocean, Hao Ren got anxious and activated all of his nature essence!

However, as a godly metal pillar which was on par as the ten ancient godly items, it was more than what a Four-Petal Realm cultivator could use.

It would be easy if he just moved it to the East Ocean Dragon Palace and returned it to its original position. However, it was wishful thinking if Hao Ren wanted to tame it and turn it into his natal dharma treasure!

Thousands of years ago, it had been used by that Monkey King for a while, but not as a natal dharma treasure. Instead, it was like the kind of partnership similar to the relationship between Hao Ren and the golden shield!

Not able to keep the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar in control, Hao Ren was dragged toward the sea by it.

“Hao Ren!” Worried, Xie Yujia followed him.

If Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were with him, they would surely find a way for him to refine the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar. But now, he had to tame this treasure with his own will and strength!

If he failed, this treasure wouldn’t fly away due to its firm character.

“Go! Go…”

Hao Ren shot out many sword energies.

The dense sword energies surrounded the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar!

Hao Ren had never thought about battling this treasure before, but Lady Zhen’s words piqued his interest!

Since the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar didn’t have any superpower except its toughness, Hao Ren had a chance to tame it!

If it were a treasure like the Kunlun Godly Lamp, Hao Ren would have his soul sucked out by before he could tame it!

However, if the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar struggled with him, the worst that it could do was hit him, and Hao Ren was sure that he could withstand it since his body had been tempered by heavenly lightning.

“Tiangang!”

Hao Ren brought his palms together.

The many sword energies formed a giant lightning array formation.

It could even trap a Five-Petal Realm cultivator.

With his Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll and the power of sword array formations, Hao Ren could defeat cultivators who were in higher realms. He could even kill Five-Petal Realm cultivators if everything were aligned!

The book on sword array formation that Old Grandma gave him had stunning power!

The Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar stood firmly in the ocean and released waves of suppression, blocking Hao Ren’s sword energies.

“Go!”

Xie Yujia shot out two Life-Death Notes and held the top and the bottom of the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar.

They were the original Life-Death Runes that Qingfeng Hermit gave to her, and they could transform nature.

Hum… The golden shield hesitated for a moment and released many golden lights. Despite its fear of the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar, it must do its share at this moment!

If Hao Ren could tame the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar, it would become this ancient treasure’s senior since it had been with Hao Ren longer!

Hua! Hua…

Suddenly, the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar turned horizontal and began to spin like the propellers of a helicopter.

It had been activated by Hao Ren due to his five-elemental nature essence that contained the Tiangang energy which was common in ancient times.

However, it wasn’t easy for Hao Ren to tame it at the mere Heavenly Dragon Realm!

The ocean water surged up violently, and the violent currents almost destroyed Hao Ren’s sword array formation.

Xie Yujia furrowed her eyebrows while she controlled the Death Note and Life Note, trying her best to steady the pillar.

If it were a godly item such as the Pangu Axe and the Nuwa Stone, the cultivators who tried to control its movements would have spat out blood.

However, the Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar didn’t have such superpowers; it was only a pillar of sacred iron from the ancient times, and it hadn’t even been forged.

Without exquisite adjustments made by immortals or any miraculous spells, it had gained some spirit intelligence by absorbing nature essence!

Compared with the ten godly items, it didn’t have an outstanding background or mysterious strength. Despite its age which was as old as the ten godly items, it was grassroots compared to its aristocratic counterparts. It had just stood in East Ocean while cultivating silently with its weak spiritual senses.

If that Monkey King hadn’t pulled it up, no one would have known about it.

That was why it didn’t want to be tamed by a random cultivator after it showed its radiance! Even the sages couldn’t tame this iron pillar!

Boom! The ocean waves surged toward Hao Ren.

The undercurrents beneath the surface of the ocean were more powerful than those energy surges above the ocean. Hao Ren moved his hands and tightened the sword array formation!

The sword energies let out humming noises while each of them was equivalent to a slim heavenly lightning bolt!

“I don’t care if you want to submit or not; I must tame you to save my grandma!” Hao Ren roared in rage, getting more furious while he pondered about the whole thing. “If the Queen Mother of the West refuses to save my grandma, I’ll battle my way up to the Heavenly Realm!”

” Battle my way to the Heavenly Realm 3 !”

These words made the ocean waves surge up even more.

The Ocean-Pacifying Godly Pillar which had been tumbling violently in the ocean waves suddenly stopped moving.
