Chapter 725: Chapter 475: Depriving Magical Treasure, Netherworld Old Ghost

Watching as the sinister gray demonic claw, emanating an evil aura, was gradually extracted from Meng Dian’s body.

Everyone who witnessed this scene felt a chill down their spine.

This thing, at first glance, was clearly not a righteous object.

Is it possible that the artifact Meng Dian wielded just now was this evil magical treasure?

Even though Meng Dian resisted with all his might, how could he withstand Lu Qing’s power?

Soon, the gray demonic claw was completely removed from his Dantian by Lu Qing.

With the gray demonic claw extracted, Meng Dian’s aura instantly plummeted, and a look of despair flashed in his eyes.

But at this moment, no one had the time to pay him any attention.

Because everyone’s gaze had been captivated by that gray demonic claw.

They saw that once the gray demonic claw was extracted by Lu Qing, it hovered mid-air but did not settle down peacefully.

Instead, it began to wriggle frantically, as if it were alive.

The gray energy on the claw morphed into layers of sinister skulls, and invisible screams emanated from it, piercing through the Divine Soul, sending chills down everyone’s spine.

It was unimaginable where Meng Dian had found the courage to refine such an evil object into his body.

However, no matter how much the gray demonic claw struggled and twisted, under Lu Qing’s power, all was in vain.

It was firmly suppressed, unable to do anything.

“The Netherworld Ghost Claw, so it truly is this evil treasure!”

At this moment, an elderly voice sounded, tinged with surprise.

The crowd, upon hearing it, turned to look.

The speaker was an old Daoist, clad in a Daoist robe, exuding an immortal aura, with white hair and beard.

They all gasped in shock.

Because they recognized the location as Qingyang Temple, one of the Three Great Secret Places.

Evidently, this must be a Taoist master from Qingyang Temple.

This time at the Holy Gathering, the Three Great Secret Places had been very low-key.

But being low-key does not mean everyone will ignore them.

Now seeing this ethereal old Daoist speak, everyone felt a shiver inside.

“Oh? Senior knows the origin of this object?”

Lu Qing looked at the elderly Daoist.

Meanwhile, he also nodded slightly in acknowledgment to Yangming Taoist standing beside the old Daoist.

This nod made Yangming Taoist feel a bit excited.

He didn’t expect Lu Qing to actually greet him.

“The Netherworld Ghost Claw is the name of the evil treasure in your hand, young friend. It’s the signature magical treasure of an evil path Primordial Spirit expert from the previous Cultivation Era.

In the cultivation world of the last Cultivation Era, it was also a well-known evil spiritual artifact.”

An evil spiritual artifact from the previous Cultivation Era!

Hearing this name, everyone was shocked at heart and spirit.

For so long the world had been reviving, stories of the previous Cultivation Era were no longer secrets.

Those who could attend the Holy Gathering were all from reputable and powerful sects, naturally having some knowledge of this.

Upon hearing that the gray demonic claw was an evil treasure passed down from the previous Cultivation Era, and that it was also a legendary spiritual artifact, how could they not be shocked?

At the same time, they finally understood why Meng Dian was so strong; it turns out he possessed such an evil spiritual artifact.

“Young Master, this is indeed the signature magical treasure of an evil path Primordial Spirit named Netherworld Old Ghost from the Ancient Immortal Cultivation Era.”

At this moment, “Yan” also communicated to Lu Qing’s Divine Soul.

Lu Qing nodded slightly but still presented another question to the old Daoist.

“An evil spiritual artifact from the previous Cultivation Era?

If this is so, why did it pass down?

There are rumors that towards the end of the last Cultivation Era, all Primordial Spirit great powers left this world.

Senior, is it possible that the original owner of this evil treasure didn’t make it onto the Breaking Realm Ship?”

Lu Qing could naturally use his superpower to probe the origins of the gray demonic claw.

But the informational notes his superpower could detect were ultimately limited, unable to clarify all the details.

“Regarding this matter, there are indeed records in the ancient texts passed down in our Qingyang Temple,” the old Daoist said.

“Towards the end of the Ancient Immortal Cultivation Era, indeed, many Primordial Spirit great powers in the cultivation world boarded the Breaking Realm Ships and left this world.

Even those from the Demon Sects followed them out.

But some Primordial Spirit great powers did not make it onto the Breaking Realm Ships.

Among them was the owner of this Netherworld Ghost Claw, a Primordial Spirit great power named Youming Elder.

“This Youming Elder was an evil path loose cultivator Primordial Spirit great power from the Ancient Immortal Cultivation Era, solitary and solitary, disliking interacting with others.

Moreover, he was cruel by nature, finding pleasure in tormenting living creatures, feared by everyone in the cultivation world as a Demon.

These evil path loose cultivator Primordial Spirits, most of whom were unencumbered and solitary.

Thus, their actions were even more extreme than those of the Demon Sects.

This caused the Righteous Immortal Sects to loathe them, but they were also wary, not daring to offend them too much without absolute confidence.”

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded, feeling understanding.

Even for these righteous sects, with vast resources and vast influences, when faced with powerful cultivators who were unencumbered, they generally wouldn’t excessively offend them.

Otherwise, once vengeance is brewed, it might be a matter of life-and-death feud.

Even if they were able to kill their opponent, they might suffer significant losses themselves, making it more trouble than it’s worth.

Thinking of this, someone inconspicuously glanced at Lu Qing.

Just like the Suspended Mountain, being one of the Four Great Secret Places, with a long-standing heritage and deep foundation.

In the end, wasn’t it also destroyed because it offended this one, and even the secret realm was annihilated?

“But this is only under usual circumstances.”

While everyone was lost in thought, the white-haired old Daoist continued to speak.
