Tong Huoyin was immersed in the excitement. The furnace had burned for fully thousands of years. Who knew what precious elixir was being refined inside exactly!
He had not expected to stumble across such a great treasure, and he might even dig out an elixir. Yet the Eight-trigrams Furnace was too heavy, which he tried so hard to open but failed.
"Ha-ha-ha, my dear treasure. Come out! Let me see what you really are!"
Tong Huoying laughed out loud. At this point, he broke out his strongest force and his power in Implement Constructing Realm revived to the best state. He intended to open the furnace with all his strength.
But the two growls came suddenly, which shook the universe and smashed the void.
The growls also made Tong Huoyin almost lose his mind. With all his force pouring out all of a sudden, he stumbled, and nearly crashed into the Eight-diagrams Furnace!
"Who the hell is that?"
Tong Huoyin turned livid as if he had eaten shit. He turned his head wrathfully and saw Su Yan, who was rushing toward him furiously!
Seeing this, Tong Huoyin felt both surprised and angry, for he had never expected that Su Yan dared to come here!
As he was about to suppress Su Yan, he didn't notice that Tie Baocai rolled over like a big meatball.
Although its breath was originally weak, it erupted to the strongest state in a second!
Su Yan was stunned, as Tie Baocai’s timing of the raid was exceptionally accurate and eye-opening.
"Rumble!"
At this moment, Tie Baocai was so mighty like a giant bull that trampled upon the ground with its big head held up high and its hair standing on end, striking against Tong Huoyin severely!
"Ah!"
Tong Huoyin roared hysterically. He had been injured seriously, now hit by Tie Baocai, he shivered painfully with the bones in his body broken. Then he spitted out one mouthful blood and flew out backward.
Jumping to the air, Su Yan took out the Iron Rod and smashed madly at Tong Huoyin who flew away!
Tong Huoyin tried crazily to dodge the lethal attack but was still hit on his other shoulder.
"Crack!"
His shoulder collapsed at once with half of his body spurting out blood. His entire arm was knocked off by Su Yan with one rod.
"Ah!"
Tong Huoyin fell down to the ground and writhed, screaming ferociously like a beast. It was so painful that he almost fainted with cold sweat all over his body. Without two arms, he became an armless man.
"The Bronze Tripod! Come on!"
Tie Baocai shook the furnace vigorously and found that he couldn't open it at all. So he hastened Su Yan to move quickly, in case any accident would happen.
"Got it."
Su Yan took out the Bronze Tripod at once, which, shabby as it was, floated and rotated over the Eight-diagram Furnace, rumbling!
Tie Baocai stretched out his fat claws rapidly creating a series of hand seals and cast them into the Bronze Tripod. Upon which, the shabby Bronze Tripod shined, scattering holy glow on the Eight-diagram Furnace!
"Buzz!"
At the moment the Eight-diagram Furnace was opened, gusts of life essence, vast and exuberant, soared to the air, emanating dazzling golden glow that pervaded the sky!
"Gosh, there is an elixir! Is this the immortal elixir?"
Su Yan was shocked. There was really a golden elixir inside, which flew out from the furnace and floated in the air with divine glow all over!
"Su Yan, I will kill you!"
Tong Huoyin's eyes were so red as if somebody had taken away his wife. He endured the sharp pain, rushing toward them to rob the golden elixir.
However, Su Yan had already grasped the golden elixir in hand. Seeing Tong Huoyin coming, he sneered and closed his eyes. Then he communicated with Source Seed which brightened suddenly, carving bright formation lines quickly that fell down on the ground along Su Yan's feet!
"Qi of Earth Vein, come out!"
Su Yan drew the Qi of Earth Vein under the Alchemy House. Then the Fire of Earth Vein gushed out like a fire snake and immediately swallowed Tong Huoyin!
"Ah!"
Tong Huoyin gave out an extremely miserable sound. The thousands of years of fire was so scorching that, even with a body of fire property, he was almost burnt apart by the fire!
"Tie Baocai!"
Su Yan shouted abruptly, as he just found that Tie Baocai dived into the Eight-diagram Furnace with two strong legs outside kicking the air hard.
Su Yan felt he was cheated. How did Tie Baocai leave the golden elixir alone but search for other treasures? Was there some treasure better than golden elixir in the furnace?
Tie Baocai came out quickly and carried the Eight-diafram Furnace on its shoulder at once, grinning excitedly.
"Su Yan, stop! I’ll make you pay for this!" Tong Huoyin was still alive, roaring hysterically. After all, he reached the Implement Constructing Realm. With his power of the Destiny Spring spurting out thoroughly, he suppressed the flames around his body by force, rushing to Su Yan as fast as lightning!

Not willing to stay here for long, Su Yan drew the Qi of Earth Vein and flashed outside the Alchemy House.
"Let's go! Someone powerful is coming, I can feel him!"
Tie Baocai closed the door of Alchemy House with a spank, and said in hurry, "I didn't expect that you are capable of Taoist martial arts. Teach me later. Now, let's get out of here! Hurry up!"
Su Yan also felt a familiar breath faintly. It was Zu Yan!
He mounted Tie Baocai’s back again, drew the Qi of Earth Vein with all his might, trying to leap the space and leave this area as soon as possible!
"Baocai, let’s go!" Su Yan urged, "Hurry up, I'm out of strength."
Tie Baocai almost stood up out of rage and said with face darkening, "Shut up! The guy pursuing behind us is mighty. Get out of here first!"
Su Yan also looked worried and solemn as Zu Yan was getting closer and closer!
"Warlord Zu Yan is coming!"
All the people in the huge underground palace were in sensation. They saw a golden Warlord coming over, who wore golden armor, purple cloud boots and golden purple crown!
The Warlord Zu Yan looked very valiant and heroic. When he broke into the huge underground palace, he was furious with what he saw!
The Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Qin should have been his own treasure, while now so many people were here. Obviously, Zu Yan felt rageful.
"Boom!"
His energy emitted entirely, causing billowy waves that swept all around!
The underground palace was shaking and countless cultivators paralyzed to the ground because they could hardly stand Zu Yan's power!
Zu Yan rushed to the depth of the huge palace in a flash, smelling an exceptionally unique fragrance. When he saw the Alchemy House, he kicked the door open with a scowl!
Then screams like that of a pig being slaughtered came through, which astonished all the people following after Zu Yan. They all saw Tong Huoyin, who was so poor that he had lost both arms, burnt black all over with bloodshot eyes. He was nearly insane!
Tortured by Su Yan like this, one could only imagine how infuriated Tong Huoyin was!
Tong Huoyin was one of the top ten overmatches. But now his miserable look made people shudder. Even if there was a rare elixir that could help him regrow his arms, with his health and cultivation foundation severely damaged, Tong Huoyin would probably stop in the Implement Constructing Realm.
"Tell me!"
Zu Yan's dignified voice contained thundering anger. Tong Huoyin shivered and sobered up a bit at Zu Yan's wrath, hastening to tell the whole story promptly. When he described the golden elixir, Zu Yan became angrier!
"Golden elixir! Su Yan!" A piercing killing intent filled Zu Yan's eyes! Since his very appearance, Su Yan had wrecked all his great plans. And if it weren’t for the Martial Lord’s intercept, Zu Yan wouldn't be so late!
Zu Yan even hadn't expected that Su Yan could find his way into the Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Qin successfully.
"You can’t escape from me anymore!"
Zu Yan released billowy and purple light that penetrated a dozen miles, which made the huge underground palace shake violently along.
With an aura so stunningly amazing, Zu Yan rushed into the depth, trying to find the golden elixir taken by Su Yan.
Certainly, Zu Yan's true target was not the golden elixir but the superb martial art Su Yan mastered, the Incipient Scripture. If Zu Yan obtained this scripture, he would have the confidence to be the overlord of the young generation!
"He is so fast!"
Su Yan had felt that Zu Yan's aura was approaching like a big furnace. Zu Yan nearly caught up with them.
Cultivators in this place were few but there were many corpses.
Then Tie Baocai suddenly stopped running and fell down on the ground. He grabbed blood with its huge claws and painted it on his body casually. After that, he stretched his big tongue out, disguised a dead face and stayed breathless!
"Holy shit!"
Su Yan's face was as black as the bottom of a pan. It was playing dead. Even Su Yan couldn't discover its breath, he had thought that Tie Baocai was really scared to death.
"Don't touch me! Don't you have the Taoist martial arts? Draw the Qi of Earth Vein now to hide our signs of life. The guy chasing us is not weak at all!"
Tie Baocai kept his tongue out, speaking to Su Yan by soul.
Su Yan could only lie beside Tie Baocai, also wiped some blood on his face and drew the Qi of Earth Vein to hide their life tracks.
Thank god there were lots of corpses here!
"Rumble!"
Shortly after Su Yan disguised himself, Zu Yan arrived, so domineering that he could see through every living creature everywhere he passed!
His formidable soul swept forcibly all over.
Su Yan perceived that a trace of power of soul had scanned around him several times and left quickly like falling tide.
Then Zu Yan brought his forces passing by.
Tie Baocai got up immediately. Shaking its hair and watching Zu Yan’s back, it said enviably, "Do you want to snatch some treasures?"
"I bet you want!" Su Yan snorted. He didn't forget that Tie Baocai had almost tricked the Bronze Tripod from him.
"Come on man, don’t hold the grudges. You can't take away the golden elixir without me!" Tie Baocai was a little embarrassed, he continued, "And you can't even drive the Bronze Tripod. Look at it. It's so shabby and defective. It’s useless for you!"
"Humph, Baocai, that's easy for you to say." Su Yan straightened his face, "Put this thing behind first. What should we do now?"
"This man is really powerful. Maybe he could open the secret door. Follow him and we’ll definitely get a share!"
Su Yan certainly wouldn't give up this opportunity. He had a deal with Tie Baocai to spilt the treasures they got fifty-fifty.
They started following Zu Yan and his companies, rushing inside toward the depth of the mausoleum!
The underground palace was so huge with corpses everywhere.
Zu Yan was extremely domineering. Wherever he passed by, everyone must bow.
This scene made Tie Baocai sullen, he asked Su Yan, "So fucking horrible! Who is he?"
"That's exactly what I want to ask you." Su Yan looked at Tie Baocai in disbelief. Had this panda stayed all his life in the Mausoleum of the First Emperor of Qin? Given that he didn't even know Zu Yan, it was highly possible.
Tie Baocai changed the topic, "No matter who he is, the guy is so cocky like a local despot. I will fix him some day!"
Su Yan sneered, "No way. Fix him? Come on, don’t brag yourself!"
Tie Baocai got angry, "I'll see how invincible he is. How dare he offend me, a matchless beast God? I will execute him!"
"A big iron bull is flying in the sky, and a big Tie Baocai is bragging on the ground!"
Su Yan sat on Tie Baocai’s back comfortably, mumbling casually with disdain.
"Boy, trust me. I will fix him some day. Wait and see!"
Tie Baocai straightened his big fat face, carrying Su Yan on his back and running quickly after Zu Yan.
"Warlord Zu Yan is coming!"
At the point when Zu Yan rushed all the way to the depth of the palace, everyone's face changed. There was a giant stair consisting of exactly nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine steps, with blood flowing down every step.
Above the steps stood a grand palace, emitting emperor's domineering aura!
Some people had already arrived here, so did Liu Chengtian and his companies. They had gained a lot like many ancient books and some valuable antiques.
"What’s that?"
Now people who just arrived here were all thrilled!
The palace was very grand, above which tens of thousands of holy glows cascaded down like a falling waterfall!
Above the palace floated a giant black meteorite that looked extremely horrible as if it could draw the power of stars all over the sky, releasing devastating energy that nearly suffocated all overmatches approaching here!
"What is it?"
Su Yan was surprised that this was much superior than the big rhinoceros's treasure he had stolen before!
Zu Yan’s eyes went red out of greed. It was a precious heavenly material!
When Su Yan glanced at Tie Baocai, he was shocked to see Tie Baocai breathing heavily with smoke coming from its nose and bloodshot eyes. It was so excited that it nearly fainted!
"Tie Baocai, calm down!" Su Yan said hurriedly, "Take it easy, man. Calm down!"
"Fuck, I’m so lucky!" Tie Baocai took a deep breath and said, "No matter what will happen later, we must take it away. It can be refined into extremely horrible weapon. It should be the legendary Star!"
"What Star?" Su Yan was confused, "Isn't it a meteorite?"
"Meteorite? You are so inexperienced. The Star is the treasure refined from a living primordial planet by a universal overmatch! The power of the Star was super unnatural. It must have been the work of some invincible master. We must have it. It's a precious material to build a weapon. We got luck today!"
Tie Baocai was ready.
