Chapter 1794: Yuan Magnetic Assimilation

Two emperors, each no weaker than him, and because of their imperial status, they had countless followers. Going against them...

To obtain a cultivation technique, seeking death... He wasn't that desperate.

"Is Ancient Saint Boxun afraid?"

Zhang Xuan said with a faint smile.

"I have no desire to participate in conflicts between emperors, nor am I interested!" Ancient Saint Boxun waved his hand. "If you think I'm afraid, so be it!"

To become an ancient saint, one's state of mind must at least reach 30.0, and it would not be swayed by a few words of encouragement.

"Since Ancient Saint Boxun says so, we won't force you. However... Yuan magnetic force is a special power born between heaven and earth. It's understandable that you want to comprehend it to break through to the Void Transcendence realm, but... doing so is equivalent to confronting the Heavenly Dao head-on. Both your soul and body will be suppressed... If I'm not mistaken, it's not that you don't want to leave this abyss, but rather that it's very difficult for you to leave, isn't it?"

Zhang Xuan raised his eyes.

When the other party had controlled the yuan magnetic force and flown out from below earlier, he had taken the opportunity to investigate using the library.

The person before him appeared powerful, but in reality, he had been assimilated by the yuan magnetic force. Once he left, he would inevitably attract heavenly tribulation, making life worse than death.

Thus, a mighty ancient saint at the Blood Drop Rebirth level had been holed up here, unwilling to leave.

"Though the heavenly tribulation is formidable, with my current strength, it won't be too difficult to withstand it! If I truly wanted to leave, no one could stop me!"

After a moment of surprise, Ancient Saint Boxun snorted coldly.

He was an ancient saint; even if he had to endure injury, he could still survive it. It was just a matter of willingness and how much he would lose.

"That's good to hear. Still, I'd advise you: although yuan magnetic stones are beneficial, it's best not to integrate them into your bloodline, or the consequences will be endless... By then, your meridians will transform, and no one can control it!"

Shaking his head, Zhang Xuan said no more and called out to Emperor Chenyong, "Let's go."

"Go?"

Emperor Chenyong was startled.

They had come here to recruit Ancient Saint Boxun to their side. They had only said a few words, and without any result, they were leaving. Losing such a powerful ally, going to find the other two would be certain death!

Whoosh!

Still puzzled, he saw Zhang Xuan already flying into the distance. After a pause, he followed.

He had entered Baixi Mountain with this young man before and knew he possessed extraordinary abilities. Saying a few words and leaving must have been intentional.

After flying for a while, he indeed saw the youth stop, hover in the air, and look back in the direction they came from with a smile.

"We..."

Frowning, Emperor Chenyong looked at him in confusion.

"Wait a moment. This Ancient Saint Boxun might change his mind."

Zhang Xuan said.

Emperor Chenyong was very puzzled.

It was said that if the other party left the abyss, he would be backlashed by the Heavenly Dao. How could he change his mind and risk helping them?

However, since the young man said so, he must have a plan. Not daring to ask, Emperor Chenyong stayed put and also looked toward the abyss.

...

"How does this fellow know that I am refining the yuan magnetic stone?"

Seeing Zhang Xuan and his companion leave without finishing their words, Ancient Saint Boxun was full of doubt.

The reason he could control the primal magnetic force here was not due to extraordinary talent, but because he had hidden in the deepest part of the abyss, refining the primal lodestone.

This stone, like a magnet, could emit primal magnetic force. Mastering this force allowed one to control an opponent's true qi, rendering them unable to fight.

"No matter how he plays tricks... I'm only one step away from refining the primal lodestone now. I need to speed up..."

After thinking for a moment, unsure of the other's intentions, Bo Xun Ancient Saint shook his head, ignored it, and his figure melted back into the darkness. The next moment, he had arrived at the deepest part of the abyss.

A five-colored stone appeared before him, its surface shimmering with light, as if the surrounding primal magnetic force emanated from it.

Placing his palm on the stone, he took a deep breath. Bo Xun Ancient Saint's power surged out, rapidly refining it.

It had taken him a thousand years just to get close to this stone, and another thousand to place his palm on it. Now, he only needed his true qi to transform into primal magnetic force, and he would succeed in refining it!

And he was just one step away from that.

It was foreseeable that once successful, he would carry the entire abyss within his body, no longer fearing heavenly tribulation attacks, and could easily crush opponents of the same level.

Gurgle gurgle gurgle!

The more true qi he infused, the more it resonated with the primal magnetic force. Suddenly, the primal lodestone before him seemed to be completely refined, gradually merging with his palm.

"Success..."

His eyes lit up. Bo Xun Ancient Saint quickly controlled the power, slowly merging.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle!

The stone emitting five-colored light completely merged into his palm. In an instant, his entire body was enveloped in light, like a colored figurine.

Feeling that he had indeed mastered the primal magnetic force, Bo Xun Ancient Saint laughed heartily. Just as he was about to test his combat power, his body suddenly stiffened, and his true qi became mired in mud, no longer flowing smoothly as before.

"What's happening?"

His pupils contracted. He quickly looked toward the source of his true qi, and his face turned pale.

His meridians had lost their former suppleness, instead becoming like steel, emitting a bronze color, so hard that true qi could barely pass through.

"It's the stone... Am I turning into stone?"

Not only his meridians, but his muscles and blood also began to stiffen, as if losing sensation.

At this point, even a fool would understand what was happening.

In his attempt to refine the primal lodestone, he had transformed his true qi into primal magnetic force, but in reality, the primal magnetic force had also subtly transformed him, seemingly trying to turn him into a giant primal lodestone!

Just like a magnet, iron that stays close for a long time will also become magnetized.

That is, its internal structure is altered.

But... if it were an ordinary stone, it would be one thing, but he was a living being. Once his flesh and meridians turned to stone, could he still fight, speak, and possess independent consciousness?

"My soul is also being invaded..."

Cold sweat continuously dripped from his head.

In a short time, not only his meridians and flesh, but even his blood and soul were being invaded, growing stiffer and stiffer, losing their former essence, energy, and spirit.

"Endless troubles, meridian transformation... That person must have known something..."

Just as he was about to collapse, feeling he might die at any moment, Bo Xun Ancient Saint suddenly recalled the words of the young man earlier, and his fist clenched tightly.

The other had not only seen that he was refining the primal lodestone but seemed to have perceived something more. Now, to resolve his predicament, he probably had to seek out that person.

Boom!

Realizing this, he did not hesitate. He immediately flew out of the abyss and charged straight in the direction where Zhang Xuan and the others had disappeared.
