Divine Brilliance

Chapter 728 - Master Fell



Chapter 728: Master Fell

“He actually really died!”

On the Gantian Mountain Peak Heaven Worshipping Platform, Kong Rui was looking into the distant night sky.

Only to see that a blood glow flashed among the bright stars, many other stars became dimmer.

Normal people couldn’t notice such changes, even Celestial and God Realm experts might not pick it up.

Kong Rui used the Wen King Copper Coin to see and thus he missed nothing out.

“Taoist Faction blood calamity…”

Although it was small, not enough to heavily affect them, this was the first time he had seen such a star scenery since he came into contact with divination.

“Imperial Astronomer Kong!”

Zong Ling’s voice broke his thoughts. His tone was filled with awkwardness and anxiousness.

“It is already late, it is best if we return! Although those Daoling Vast Habitat people didn’t attack us recently, they have many Spirit Realm experts. Who knows there might be some hiding within the city? It is best if we are more careful…”

If he wasn’t worried about Zong Shou’s safety, and if he didn’t want to know about the situation there, then he wouldn’t have allowed and followed Kong Rui over here.

This person was not only the Imperial Astronomer but also the Country Father in Law. He was also the Father of the Left Army Inspector Kong Yao who was currently in charge of the Gantian Mountain war arrangements.

If anything happened to him, how would he be able to answer?

However, Kong Rui shook his head.

“It is okay!”

He was still using the Wen King Copper Coin to look at the Heavens. He was fully focused.

“Their Master has fallen! It is already over…”

Zong Ling exclaimed, his eyes filled with confusion. Their Master had fallen? What did that mean?

Oh right, didn’t Kong Rui mention that it referred to Wu Xu?

“Taoist Faction blood calamity, Wu Xu will die! At this moment, Daoling Vast Habitat can’t even protect themselves so why would they have the strength to attack Donglin? They would probably retreat today!”

Kong Rui’s words continued. However, Zong Ling’s eyes were opened wide in total disbelief.

Taoist Faction blood calamity, Wu Xu will die? How is that possible?

However, looking at Kong Rui’s expression he seemed to be serious.

He thought that it was either this Imperial Astronomer being crazy or this was the case.

He calmed down. Anyways he would find out about the outcome tomorrow.

The death of the Head of a Vast Habitat was such a huge matter and definitely couldn’t be hidden.

※※※※

Within Daoling Vast Habitat, Wu Xu was still and standing on the spiritual formation.

A dozen of Taoists beside him all flashed and travelled through the air. After taking a look at Wu Xu they were all silent.

They were all people who had some status within the Vast Habitat. Wuji was also within. When he looked at Wu Xu, he couldn’t help but sigh.

After he revived, the two of them had a sour relationship. However, when he looked at Wu Xu now fallen to such a state, he couldn’t help but find it tragic and sad.

More and more Vast Habitat disciples crowded over. None of them got too close, just standing solemnly a thousand feet away. Most of them had a serious expression as they knelt on the ground. These were all junior disciples who had been given some help and kindness from Wu Xu.

A full ten breaths passed before a thread of sword energy surged out from his body.

It was just the remnant energy but one could imagine how strong and sharp that sword just now was.

Within a thousand feet, everything was covered in sword marks.

Wu Xu’s face was ashen white, fresh blood seeped out from his lips.

After the sword was placed back into its sheath he laughed bitterly.

“I am sorry! Call back, Absolute Beginning, Blooming Cereus, three years…:

Everyone was stunned. He was sorry because he couldn’t block that sword.

He wanted to call back all the Spirit Realm experts from Donglin.

As for Absolute Beginning, was that the Sword Intent that Zong Shou grasped?

Actually from the remnant sword energies, they could sense what it was.

However, what did this Blooming Cereus refer to? What did three years mean?

Everyone was really curious, just as they were about to speak up and ask, threads of sharp sword energy surged out from Wu Xu’s body.

At the start there was very few, then there were thousands and millions of them which began to shoot out. Wu Xu’s body instantly turned into dust and floated in the air.

The Vast Habitat was silent once more. No one spoke a word. Even Wu Xu’s past rivals showed sadness in their eyes.

Xiao Xiangzi wished that he could roar out in anger to vent the disbelief and fury in his heart.

Qiuhua was dead, so was his Master Wu Xu. How did this happen? He was definitely dreaming…

His fists clenched tight as his fingernails stabbed into his flesh and bone. The stabbing pain reminded him that he was, in fact, not in a dream!

Instantly two streaks of blood tears flowed down. From today, on only one of Zong Shou and he can exist in this world!

Suddenly Xiao Xiangzi felt several cold gazes look over towards him.

He was shocked, lowered his head and looked over. His heart was totally cold, the chill of a dead person. His Master had just died and they were already ready to create problems for him?

He looked behind him at the tens of thousands of Vast Habitat cultivators, his face turning grey from defeat, his heart sank.

Xiao Xiangzi couldn’t help but scoff. Most of the people here probably blamed his Master.

Like him, that person had totally destroyed the heroism and pride of the Taoist Faction.

This battle had pretty much broken the spine of the Daoling Vast Habitat…

※※※※

While the atmosphere within Daoling Vast Habitat was serious and quiet, Zong Shou was closing his eyes and thinking on the peak of Yugang Mountain.

Half of the mountain was already gone. Which was why he could only hang in mid air.

“That Heaven Barrier seemed to have been broken just now?”

Zong Shou muttered and then opened his eyes, a bright glow flashing within.

The moment he used the third Darkness Blooming Cereus, the vital energy of tens of thousands of souls to use the One Origin Absolute Beginning Sword. It not only caused his heart and mind to become free: the depressed and frustrated feelings were all gone. He could also sense that the layer which affected his spiritual sense from connecting to Heaven and Earth had several cracks, forcefully torn open by his Sword Intent.

It was showing no signs of healing. If he added in more strength he could totally destroy that layer.

He could sense that his tribulation was about to arrive. If he could display as much power as the Absolute Beginning Sword like just now, there would probably be tribulation lightning descending

Zong Shou laughed and retracted his spiritual sense. Now wasn’t the time. Even if he was totally confident to ascend for the Spirit Realm, he couldn’t do so in the core land of the Taoist Faction.

He thought back to the sword Wu Xu displayed. A weird glow appeared on his face.

Although Zong Shou hated that person, he couldn’t help but admit his brilliance.

If it wasn’t for him using the strength of a country and also using various advantages he had, he wouldn’t have been able to kill him with one strike.

The Time Sword Intent was really amazing…

Just one strike which was suppressed by his sword intent had managed to take ten years off his lifespan.

Now he was only left with three years.

However, that was just normally speaking. Zong Shou turned around and looked towards Hanxi with a weird look.

At this moment his life force within his body was starting to recover.

In a blink of an eye, he recovered to around ten years of lifespan.

He then remembered that he was in a life and death contract with this Saint fire Ant Queen.

If he lived then it would live, if he died then it would die. Anyways if Hanxi died, he would also suffer heavy damage to his soul.

They were connected and shared their lifespan. It finally came to use when his lifeforce was about to be used up.

He had a great idea since that was the case, then couldn’t he just read that Universe Book without worry?

Anyways with Hanxi’s life force supporting him, he didn’t need to fear himself dying…

The moment such a thought rose up, he shook his head. If he really did that then won’t it just kill him!

While he was having all these random thoughts, Hanxi had already survived the strikes of the tribulation lightning. Its entire body was perfectly fine.

Zong Shou could also sense Little Gold’s jealousy.

…From start to finish, there were only three. The strength was also much weaker than when Little Gold was going through his tribulation.

Natural Variants were born from the vengeful and killing intent of Heaven and Earth. Even if they killed a lot, they were still protected by Heaven and Earth.

This was the gap between stepmom and actual mom…

Little Gold was obviously being treated worse than Hanxi.

The moment the white light scattered, Hanxi’s body once again had silver threads spreading out, turning into a cocoon shape once more.

The other six ants also flew over. They rested on the cocoon and were also wrapped up by the silver threads.

Right as Zong Shou didn’t know what was going on, he saw the little puppy drill out of the ground.

It dashed to him with something in its mouth. It spat it out. However, there was something else within that it wasn’t willing to spit.

“Mixed Essence One Energy Pearl?”

It was a fist-sized pearl which was yellow in color.

Zong Shou had heard about this item before. The core of the Mixed Energy Formation, the pillar of it, the key was being able to absorb and repel true qi and spells.

It was said that this item was a High Earth Grade item made during the Cloud Desolate Era.

Ping An Temple Ancestor wanted to use it to craft a Celestial Treasure but was unable to use his spiritual sense to melt it.

In the end, he was helpless and used the pearl as the foundations to make the formation.

Zong Shou couldn’t help but smile. Just as the city protecting spiritual formation in Gantian Mountain was still being built.

With the pearl as the foundations to build the Mixed Essence One Energy Formation, Gantian Mountain City would be so safe and need not to worry about cultivators causing problems within.

Naturally, the formation also needed to be changed and improved. However, Gantian Mountain’s resources were far from something a Ping An Temple could compare with.

The other thing in Xiaori’s mouth was also a pearl. It was also yellow, much lighter than the other pearl. The color was also not pure.

“This is Heavy Earth Pearl?

A high Xuan Grade spiritual item. If you were more specific it was Grade-8 Xuan Grade.

With a thought, Zong Shou knew that this was the item that Xiaori was interested in.

He found it weird. Why didn’t Ping An Temple notice this item?

In the next moment, he shook his head and laughed. This pearl was right next to the other and should have been born due to it.

Ping An Temple probably wanted to raise this item for a longer period before making use of it.

However, wasn’t Xiaori a mutated Fire Qilin? Why did it need this item?

Curiously looking over at Xiaori only to see it roar softly. Zong Shou broke into a laugh and patted its head.
