1978 Wu Mian Refines the King’s Mark, The Black Heaven Nine Star’s Justice
“Heavenly Sword, are you really alright?”
The Heavenly Shadow, who was still a little concerned, asked again.
Chu Kuangren’s act earlier was just too believable.
“Do you think a mere Nether God is strong enough to injure the Heavens? That act earlier was just to trick An Zhixun,” Chu Kuangren explained.
“Master, are you planning to spread false intel?”
The Heavenly Shadow’s eyes lit up.
Chu Kuangren’s lips curled into a smile. “I’m just setting up some bait, that’s all. As for who it will attract, I have no idea.”
Then, he said, “Heavenly Shadow, I’ll leave the Ninth Continent in your hands. An Zhixun is nothing but a fence-sitter. With you around, the Heavens can rest assured and focus on other matters.”
“Very well, Master.”
With that, Chu Kuangren returned to the General’s Residence and continued his closed-door meditation.
He had gained a lot this time, so he needed to refine the Nether God’s soul energy.
Several months later, Chu Kuangren’s soul energy had increased a lot, and it was now an inch away from reaching the Chaos Realm. Furthermore, he also obtained many useful things when refining the Nether God’s soul energy.
For instance… The Abyss of Darkness!
Besides being an extremely powerful divine ability, it was the essence of the Nether God’s soul cultivation techniques. Once mastered, he could use it to drag his opponents into the Abyss of Darkness.
Not only that, but he could absorb his opponent’s soul energy after defeating them.
That was the biggest gain Chu Kuangren got.
It was more valuable than the Nether God’s soul energy too. With the Abyss of Darkness and his soul energy, which was extremely close to the Chaos Realm, Chu Kuangren would not have to be afraid of fighting anyone below a Primordial’s level one-on-one.
…
“So, is this the King’s Mark?” Wu Mian looked at the King’s Mark that he stole from the Nether God’s corpse with curiosity.
He could sense a blank and white Dao contained inside that item. Once refined, the Dao would change into one that suited him the most.
With that Mark, his cultivation could now improve rapidly.
“No wonder so many people were fighting over this.”
“If I refine this, my cultivation speed will increase further. And if I become one of the Nine Kings, I bet I’ll be more valuable to my master,” Wu Mian thought out loud.
Shen Tian once said that the key to defeating Pan Gu Universe could only be found in the Nine Kings and the Heavenly Sword, so he wanted to prove that he was on par or, if not, stronger than them. However, he had a new idea now.
Instead of struggling to prove himself, he might as well become one of the key pieces!
At that thought, Wu Mian found somewhere and started refining the King’s Mark. After he was done, he learned about the manifestation of the Great Dao. “So, that’s why the Master said that the Nine Kings are so important…”
…
Another decade passed.
Ever since the Nine Kings arrived at the Void Battlefield, they were extremely active.
Their presences were on almost every battlefield, which overwhelmed the Pan Gu Universe’s forces.
On top of that, an ancient planet would also appear on every battlefield, collecting rage qi everywhere.
Some cultivators wanted to investigate it.
However, regardless of which universe they came from, any cultivator who dared to get close was reduced to shreds by the ancient planet’s mysterious red light beams.
Even the Embodiers and God Kings were no exception to that.
Fortunately, the Ancient Armament Destruction Planet was only focused on collecting rage qi on the battlefield and had never intervened in the battle between the two universes.
Hence, everyone soon learned to ignore it.
For the Central Heaven Universe’s and Pan Gu Universe’s forces, the most important thing now would be to defeat the enemy, and everything else could be placed on hold for now.
On that very day, somewhere on a continent, the Central Heaven Universe and Pan Gu Universe cultivators were engaged in a bloodbath of a battle. Rivers of blood flowed, storms of rage qi rose into the air, and mists of ferocious qi enveloped the surrounding skies.
At that moment, on the Central Heaven Universe’s side, a powerful aura suddenly appeared on the battlefield. It was a tall figure.
That person was shrouded in colorful Immortal Sparks, and his every movement contained the power of various elements.
His Daoist laws intertwined and shot across the sky.
That person was a God King.
“That’s one of the Nine Kings, Luo Yunxiu!”
“This is bad! Quick, fall back!”
Everyone on Pan Gu Universe’s side started panicking.
The Nine Kings had a great reputation on the battlefield.
They had seemingly become the symbol of victory. If there were no ancient Embodiers around, ordinary Embodiers would not even stand a chance against them.
“Amitabha, take the others and leave. I will hold him back.”
A Buddhist chant sound.
It was Buddha Yun Lan from the Euphoria Pure Land.
She looked kind and was surrounded by Buddhist Light, giving off an air that she had a deep compassion for all beings. She raised her hand and released waves of Buddhist Light that blocked Luo Yunxiu’s attacks.
“Oh, a Buddhist cultivator? The Buddhist cultivators from the Pan Gu Universe are known for being merciful and compassionate. How did you end up here on the battlefield? Buddhism and slaughter do not go hand in hand, you know? How can you call yourself a Buddha?” Luo Yunxiu sneered.
“The Buddha is indeed compassionate. However, there are times when its fiery and wrathful[1] form is necessary.”
Buddha Yun Lan raised her hand and channeled her Buddhist Light.
“Alas, you’re still no match for me!”
Brilliant colorful light radiated from the Daoist law surrounding Luo Yunxiu. The power of earth, wind, water, fire, and the four elements swirled and transformed into Titan power.
That was a cultivation technique he had learned after joining the Titan Tribe.
His attack was so powerful that it instantly injured Buddha Yun Lan and forced her back with blood spewing from her mouth.
“Have a taste of my Four Elemental Titan power!”
Luo Yunxiu laughed and unleashed his four elemental powers once again. Soon, the sky was dyed with a mix of colors. It was a beautiful but violent sight to behold.
Beneath him, Pan Gu Universe’s cultivators were being hunted down one by one.
Their forces were dwindling rapidly like a crumbling mountain.
However, at that moment, a gigantic astral diagram appeared in the void.
Nine stars lit up and twinkled in the astral diagram.
In particular, the brightest star among them unleashed a vast burst of Buddhist Light that flowed outward like water, enveloping millions of Central Heaven Universe cultivators wherever it went.
The Central Heaven Universe cultivators were in bubbles formed by the Buddhist Light, hovering in the air. The cultivators trapped within tried to escape, but their efforts were futile. The same thing could be said for Arch Gilded cultivators.
“Phantasmal Bubbles.”
A cold and indifferent voice came from the astral diagram.
The bubbles that filled the sky burst open one by one, revealing scraps of blood and flesh that splashed on the ground. Tens of millions of Central Heaven Universe cultivators were all killed!
Everyone was stunned by what happened.
“Who is it?”
A general from the Central Heaven Universe looked at the astral diagram in the air and saw a graceful figure in white robes.
She was holding a white jade bottle with a willow branch inserted inside it. Coupled with her exquisitely gorgeous appearance, she carried a serenity and peaceful presence.
No one would be able to imagine that someone like her had eliminated millions of cultivators with a single move, single-handedly causing a shocking massacre!
“I’m one of the Black Heaven Nine Stars… Justice!” the white-robed woman said indifferently.
She then looked into the distance, where Buddha Yun Lan was still battling Luo Yunxiu. However, Buddha Yun Lan had fallen into a disadvantage and was now in danger.
She reached out and wiped her hand on the willow branch. Subsequently, a dewdrop containing shocking Daoist law energy shot out from her fingertips.
The dewdrop traveled thousands of kilometers in the blink of an eye. When it arrived before Luo Yunxiu, it had turned into a vast ocean!
“Oh? An elite!”
Luo Yunxiu’s gaze narrowed, and he raised his hand to let out a punch at the incoming ocean.
He was eventually forced back several kilometers from the raging ocean.
“It’s Shi Ying!”
Buddha Yun Lan looked at the white-robed woman behind her.
It was Shi Ying, the Buddhist Guanyin’s successor.
“Fall back,” Shi Ying said lightly.
Buddha Yun Lan understood her plan with a single look and immediately left the battlefield with the others.
