Chapter 1462 - 663: Heavenly Punishment! (Part 2)
Chapter 1462: Chapter 663: Heavenly Punishment! (Part 2)
And Qing Saint also came forward, saying that Spirit Saint had succumbed to a cultivation deviation and was punished by the Heavenly Dao, now having fallen into slumber.
This gradually calmed the matter down.
Artifact Refining Sect.
Chen Xuan coldly laughed upon hearing this news.
Artifact Saint looked at him in confusion.
"The Heavenly Dao wouldn’t interfere, right?"
After a moment of silence, Artifact Saint nodded, "As long as we Eight Saints don’t slaughter ordinary people indiscriminately, the Heavenly Dao shouldn’t intervene."
"So it was Qing Saint who acted?"
"Mostly likely."
Chen Xuan looked into the distance with deep eyes, "Time will wash away everything; it was the same back then, wasn’t it?"
Of course!
Many people are skeptical, but the Three Saints must be anxious to complete the flying boat soon.
"What now?"
Artifact Saint asked, feeling apprehensive, sensing that the completion day might be his own funeral; even if he doesn’t die, he will be thoroughly worn out.
"You continue crafting your flying boat, don’t worry about anything else."
With that, Chen Xuan’s figure gradually faded away.
Artifact Saint sat there quietly, let out a long sigh at the end, realizing his lack of strength made everything futile!
...
Spirit Sect.
Chen Xuan’s current identity is one of the Ten Great Elders, Gu Yu!
He was also one of Flower Saint’s people; his true self was hidden in the sea of consciousness through spatial isolation by Chen Xuan.
"Women can’t be underestimated!"
In the cave mansion, Chen Xuan couldn’t help but sigh, didn’t expect the Ten Great Elder of the prestigious Spirit Sect, with Emperor Realm Perfection, turned out to be one of Flower Saint’s people.
Seemingly harmless, yet more terrifying than anyone.
However... Spirit Saint is indeed injured, and the thunder penalty is real, this surprised Chen Xuan.
"Did the Heavenly Dao really descend?"
"Or was it... the old man?"
Chen Xuan speculated in his heart, having been in the Spirit Sect for quite some time now, yet the defenses were tightly guarded during this period, especially near the uppermost palace of Spirit Saint which is off-limits to anyone.
Even with the identity of one of the Ten Great Elders, he wasn’t allowed close.
"Hard to approach!"
...
"Ancestor, how are you?"
Inside the palace, the Sect Leader of Spirit Sect, Xiao Ran anxiously gazed up at Spirit Saint with a deathly pale face.
"Pfft..."
The response was a mouthful of blood from Spirit Saint.
"Ancestor!!!!"
Xiao Ran immediately became panicked.
"I won’t die!"
Spirit Saint said coldly, with a glimpse of fierceness in his eyes.
The Heavenly Dao didn’t care, and surprisingly, he acted; if not for Qing Saint’s intervention, he might have directly perished this time.
"Hasn’t he always been in slumber?"
"When did he wake up?"
Suddenly!
He had a slight thought and then looked at Xiao Ran, "Leave now."
"Yes!"
Though worried, Xiao Ran dared not defy, saluted, and quickly left the hall.
"Come out!"
With his voice falling, an old man in a purple robe slowly emerged.
"Quite severely injured!"
His first words upon appearing, yet his face showed little concern, rather a smile.
"Why are you happy I’m injured?"
Spirit Saint looked displeased at his smile.
"No less your master, that attitude won’t do."
The visitor was Cloud Saint.
And indeed, the rumors outside were true, he was Spirit Saint’s master.
"Humph!"
Spirit Saint snorted coldly, "Why have you come?"
If not for wanting to complete the flying boat soon, he wouldn’t be like this.
"For you!"
Cloud Saint sent out a spiritual light, landing in Spirit Saint’s hand, an elixir.
"Crafted by me, refined quite a bit from the Lower Domain, it’s beneficial for your soul."
Spirit Saint directly swallowed it.
The next moment, his broken soul slowly recovered, his complexion showing some redness.
"Hmm!"
Cloud Saint nodded in satisfaction, but his expression soon turned serious, "Didn’t expect the old man to awaken, now we can’t wantonly capture the Emperor Realm souls."
This directly affects the speed of flying boat crafting.
"In this case, then let’s go to war directly!"
If unable to act directly, then Spirit Sect, Cloud Sect, and Qing Sect should open war against those other sects.
"Qing Saint thinks so too."
Cloud Saint said.
Before coming, he had already gone to Qing Sect, "Just the timing might be slower."
Of course the target is the sects of the Lower Five Saints, for now avoiding the Artifact Refining Sect.
The other sects even combined, excluding the Saint Realm, aren’t much weaker.
"Do you have any other methods?"
Spirit Saint asked in return.
"You’re... too temperamental."
Then he slapped him, "Don’t move, let me help you smooth it out for faster recovery, but the old man indeed hit hard!"
Then his power of the Dao emerged, unexpectedly merging with Spirit Saint’s Dao at this moment.
Plus the earlier swallowed elixir.
Spirit Saint’s injuries recovered at a visibly fast pace.
In the cave mansion.
Chen Xuan, during cultivation, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Two types of Dao power!"
Then immediately focused on sensing.
"Spirit Saint... and another stronger!"
"Matching the aura of that sun back then!"
"Sure enough!"
Chen Xuan’s expression condensed; his speculation was indeed correct.
Even without having met Qing Saint, he could now be sure, the connections between the Three Saints were intricate, highly likely family-related.
Because although the Dao auras were different, their essence had many similarities.
Especially the fluctuations of their Dao.
Only through accumulated teachings would they be so similar; even if two people comprehend the same Dao Pearl’s Dao, the presentation wouldn’t be identical.
The Dao is ever-changing; each person’s comprehension differs and won’t be so similar.
He even suspected this aura was deliberate.
