Chapter 225: The Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain Is This Terrifying?

"The Profound Magnetite Divine Iron has appeared? The Great Chu Dynasty really is throwing in everything they’ve got!"

"If I remember correctly, that’s a Holy level material, isn’t it? And they actually used it to refine only a High-Grade Dao Weapon? What a waste of heavenly treasure!"

"Doesn’t matter what it was refined into—the nature of the Profound Magnetite Divine Iron remains. As long as the opponent wields a weapon forged of divine iron or immortal gold, it will be suppressed."

"Then doesn’t that mean Li Xun’s supreme Dao Weapon is crippled?"

"Without his weapon, Li Xun is going to have a hard time. After all, fists alone can’t overcome many hands—let alone ten hands working together."

All around, spectators sighed one after another.

They believed the outcome was already sealed. Without another kind of weapon, Li Xun could never shake free of the suppression of the Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain. Even if he managed to knock it aside, it would simply cling to him again.

At the side, Qin Xueyi and the others frowned slightly.

Qin Xueyi especially had already pulled out a formation material in her palm. The moment things went wrong, she would immediately lay down a trapping formation.

With her current cultivation, if she set up a proper great formation, it could trap and even slay several Divine Palace experts at once!

"The Great Chu Dynasty sent you here—was it just to deliver me a gift?"

Li Xun suddenly spoke.

He had long intended to upgrade the Azure Dragon Halberd into a Sacred Weapon, but he was lacking several Holy level materials. Even after investing heavily in Zheng Huang and the others to collect resources, the gap remained.

And now, a Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain made from a Profound Magnetite Divine Iron had been delivered to him.

Boom!

Li Xun formed a seal with one hand, and a square, ancient-looking seal plummeted from the heavens, crashing violently into the Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain. Under boundless force, it blasted the mountain thousands of meters away.

"As expected of the Scarlet Flame Divine Body..."

Xuan Yi sneered coldly.

The magnetic force of the Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain was terrifying. Once it bound to a weapon, even innate divine strength couldn’t break them apart. Yet Li Xun had done so—an outcome that left Xuan Yi momentarily shocked.

But that was all.

As long as the Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain remained, Li Xun would be unable to freely wield his weapon.

With a wave of his arms, the mountain that had been blasted away trembled, buzzing loudly as it returned through the air, rushing once again to suppress the Azure Dragon Halberd.

"You think I only rely on the Azure Dragon Halberd?"

Li Xun stepped forward—and in the same instant, his figure vanished, his speed reaching the extreme. No one had time to react.

"What movement technique is this?!"

Xuan Yi’s face turned ashen, panic in his eyes. His spiritual sense spread out, searching for Li Xun’s trace.

And in the next second, a golden divine light descended from the sky.

Using the Heavenly Dragon Cloud Soaring Technique, Li Xun appeared in front of the Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain, clenched his fist, and slammed it down.

That fist was like golden iron cast into form, blazing like a radiant sun, rolling with unstoppable might. It crashed down upon the divine mountain, shaking it until it wailed mournfully.

The massive peak shook madly, its glow dimming rapidly.

Pfft!

Xuan Yi’s face went pale, his spirit wounded. Li Xun’s punch hadn’t shattered the mountain, but it had devastated the soul imprint within it.

Xuan Yi had spent hundreds of years refining this Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain. Its injury rebounded directly upon him, leaving him lightly wounded as well.

"He’s trying to steal the Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain! Fellow Daoists, lend me a hand!"

Xuan Yi roared in fury.

But on the other side, Li Xun moved even faster. His fist became an open palm, slamming down with a deafening bang!

He seized the mountain in his hand.

"Rise!"

Li Xun let out a low shout. Grabbing hold of the mountain at its base, his blood energy surged skyward. Crimson radiance blazed, like celestial robes draped across his body, dazzling the world. His divine might was peerless—so radiant and majestic that none dared look directly at him.

The Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain was not Li Xun’s weapon, but at this moment it was gripped in his hands. With a powerful heave, he hurled it outward.

Buzz!

The mountain rumbled thunderously, swelling rapidly as if an ancient demonic mountain had descended upon the world, crashing toward the three elders of the Star-Moon Divine Sect who were rushing over.

"Xuan Yi, quickly recall your treasure!" Wei Qiong roared.

But it was already too late.

The mountain was colossal—towering thousands of zhang high, weighing billions of jin. Its descent was like a continent falling from the heavens, an unbearable calamity.

Even some distant onlookers bled from their ears and noses under the sheer force of the impact.

As for the three elders of the Star-Moon Divine Sect—

Boom!

A deafening explosion echoed.

The already immensely heavy mountain, further empowered by Li Xun’s boundless strength, unleashed a terrifying might beyond imagination. Of the three, only Wei Qiong narrowly endured. The other two had barely enough time to let out a scream before they were crushed into blood mist.

Only their souls managed to escape, flickering as fragile phantoms. They stood trembling in the air, their faces etched with lingering fear. If even Body Refining cultivators could not withstand it, what chance would ordinary cultivators have had?

"The Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain... is it truly this terrifying?"

A shocked exclamation echoed from the distance.

The words fell upon Xuan Yi’s ears, making his face darken. This mountain was his life-bound treasure. Normally, such praise should have pleased him.

But the truth was brutal—

That devastating blow which had annihilated two Divine Palace cultivators... had not been his doing. It was Li Xun who had turned his own treasure against his allies.

"Xuan Yi!"

Wei Qiong snapped coldly, his face grim. Never in his worst imaginings did he think his two junior brothers would perish beneath the very weapon of an ally.

"Their souls are intact. They can rebuild their bodies in the future. For now, the priority is to defeat Li Xun!"

Xuan Yi spoke quickly, though his heart trembled as he watched Li Xun rush toward the mountain once more. Terrified, he hastily formed seals, commanding the mountain to soar skyward.

But just as the mountain began to rise, Li Xun’s speed outstripped it. In an instant, he landed atop it, stomping down heavily. The mountain groaned miserably as though it could not bear the weight. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Pfft!

Xuan Yi’s face paled further, blood surging in his chest. He shouted, "Li Xun! This is a treasure bestowed upon me by the Emperor! If you dare seize it, the Great Chu Dynasty will never rest until you are dead!"

"Hah! What a joke."

"As if we weren’t already enemies of life and death."

Li Xun sneered. His spiritual sense surged like a tidal wave, condensing into a divine sword that slashed downward upon the mountain.

Crack!

A shattering sound resounded from the void.

The Profound Magnetite Divine Mountain instantly became a masterless object. Its brilliance dimmed rapidly, its vast bulk shrinking until it was no larger than a clenched fist, plummeting weakly toward the ground.

Li Xun reached out, catching it with ease. He weighed it in his palm, examining it closely, and sighed, "A fine treasure indeed... it’s just a pity the refinement was so crude."

Pfft!

Xuan Yi’s fury and grief boiled over, and he coughed up another mouthful of blood, staining his robes scarlet.

From the day he had stepped onto the cultivation path, he had never suffered such humiliation. First, his own treasure was turned against his allies, gravely injuring them. And now, he could not even protect his own treasure from being taken away.

This consecutive attack led an unbearable blow to his heart.
