Chapter 419: Chapter 425: What a Despicable and
Shameless Scoundrel! (One more update)
Angry?
Had he had time, Yang Zhen would have beaten the bastard into a pulp.
He had never seen such a shameless man before. Yang Zhen pondered, he still needed to hold on to his title as a scoundrel. Otherwise, any stray sect leader who crawled out would make him look good. What was the point then?
When the ice cave was destroyed, Yang Zhen, along with the jerk cat and the cocky chicken, once again entered the grand hall. The terrifying void power was still there, and just as Yang Zhen had thought, this ice palace was a treasure cultivated by humans.
Yang Zhen was thrilled. Such a large ice palace, and one that had been cultivated too, if he found a way to get it out, it was an excellent tool for showing off. A mobile palace! When others were out in the wild, living with bugs and beasts, he could pop the palace out, wouldn’t that be glorious?” Naturally, effective cultivation requires a good mood!
Yang Zhen was in a great mood, and despite the impending destruction of the ice cave, he shared his plan with the jerk cat and the cocky chicken.
The cocky chicken didn’t react much, it always had this morose look on its face. The jerk cat, however, seemed to envision what it would be like to show off in the ice palace once they got out, and instantly became energized, like a cat in heat meowing incessantly in the middle of a spring night. Yang Zhen didn’t even need to urge it on, it was already raring to go.
The jerk cat was always enthusiastic about every possibility to show off.
Yang Zhen spent quite some time, about the time it takes for a cup of tea to steep, to get a clear idea about the ice palace. Then, he spent another cup of tea’s worth of time laying down the Ksitigarbha Skill around the palace, including the burial process.
As it turned out, the lady was right. Not only could void power be taken away, but the ice palace itself could also be taken.
After Yang Zhen applied the Ksitigarbha Skill to the ice palace, a wave of blue light erupted from the palace, and it burst out of the ground with a rumble.
Such an enormous ice palace, how could mere earth and ice contain it?
As the chicken, the cat, and Yang Zhen emerged with the ice palace, they were all delighted. However, just when it seemed like they were going to successfully collect the ice palace, this shameless jerk appeared, acting as if he could casually seize the ice palace, which was rightfully theirs.
So all the hard work Yang Zhen put in was for naught? Wasn’t he going to be mad?
The moment he saw this despicable man about to lay his hand on the ice palace, Yang Zhen decided to make this shameless miscreant regret coming to the ice cave.
Boom !
Bursts of raging void power surged in all directions, enveloping the entire ice palace in an instant, trapping everyone within, including Yang Zhen and Liang Lie.
Liang Lie seemed truly terrified. He was swearing so violently that his voice was twisted.
On the other hand, Yang Zhen was unperturbed. As the void power erupted, he settled atop the ice palace and began trying to interact with the void power.
Even the avatar of the Sky Crying Great Saint didn’t dare touch the void power lightly, let alone anyone else. This was an extremely peculiar power, even more terrifying and mysterious than the power of inscriptions and stellar talent. Supposedly, it had existed since the birth of heaven and earth.
Even the well-informed jerk cat heard of less than five people who had successfully comprehended the void power, and each one of those was a world-shaking powerhouse who could impact the world with his every move. Terrifying as hell.
That alone testified to the terrifying nature of void power.
Actually, one could realize it just by looking at Liang Lie’s expression at this moment, his face was sheet-white. He didn’t even curse and roared ragingly, rushing to escape the covering of the void power.
However, the void power wasn’t something that Liang Lie could just escape from at will. Almost right after the void power touched him, his clothes were thoroughly turned into dust. He was bathed in blood within an instant, grotesque and ominous, his roar distorted.
Crazy, world-shattering waves of terror erupted within Liang Lie, forming a light screen around his body, battling against the void power.
At this point, Liang Lie had no option but to concentrate entirely. Even the slightest distraction could see him torn apart by the void power!
Seeing Liang Lie in this miserable state, all the disciples of the Separation Star Sect roared in unison, ready to rush forward, only to be stopped by an elder.
“You scoundrels, do you really think you can contend with the Void Power? All of you will wait here for me. No one is to leave.”
“the Sect Leader is still inside, Elder Ma!”
Some were anxiously on fire, others were incandescent with rage, and still, others were swearing their heads off. However, no one dared to charge forward anymore.
Gimme a break! If the sect leader, with such formidable cultivation, could be so heavily injured in an instant, it would be silly for them to charge in with their pitiful cultivation level. They’d probably be vaporized instantly.
Elder Ma looked grimly at Liang Lie hovering in mid-air, then glanced at Yang Zhen who looked equally haggard. He said in a deep voice, “The sect leader is harnessing the power of the stars, all we need to do is wait. This is not entirely a bad thing, it may be a great opportunity for the sect leader.”
The crowd was alarmed at his words. As they exchanged glances, they all turned to look at the terrifying Void Power in the sky.
“Yes, the sect leader is obviously assimilating the Void Power. Once he comprehends the Void Power, his strength would surely increase significantly.
That would position our Separation Star Sect towards continental fame and there’s a chance we could be more powerful than those ancient tribes who inherited their power.”
“True to the sect leader’s style, he’s indeed absorbing the Void Power. I initially thought he was trapped by it.”
“Scoundrels, the sect leader is so clever. Why would he be trapped by mere Void Power?”
Upon hearing the discussions among the members of the Separation Star Sect, ScumCat stood aside, dumbfounded, and mumbled to itself, “Motherf**ker, how great these bullshitters are. They can lie with their eyes wide open. It’s now clear what these Separation Star Sect members truly are.”
“You scoundrel! ScumCat, what are you saying?”
“I’ve been hating that sneaky cat for a long time. Should we capture Yang
Zhen’s bastard cat first, and wait for the sect leader’s punishment?”
“I couldn’t agree more, let’s go senior brother!”
A group of people started approaching ScumCat. But after just a few steps, their bodies shook violently.
The Sha Clan Elder gave them a fleeting glance. Gu Nuoyu slowly walked up to ScumCat, his long sword gleaming coldly in his hand.
Almost as soon as Gu Nuoyu moved, both Hua Youyue and Han Yan’er took action at the same time, their Sun and Moon Dual Swords causing faces to change.
“Let me do it!” Han Yan’er had been a bit impatient for a while. She looked back at Yang Zhen, still sitting cross-legged, gave a soft scolding, and the Sun Shadow Longsword abruptly burst forth a dazzling light, charging towards the crowd of the Separation Star Sect.
“How dare a girl from the Divine Travel Stage be so presumptuous. Let me teach you…”
“Sun Shadow Blazing Eye!”
With a crisp voice, Han Yan’er danced with the long sword, her long legs drawing a picture-perfect arc in the air. Suddenly, a blinding light burst forth, engulfing the crowd in front of her.
Screams echoed out, filled with agony. Even the Tribulation Crossing Period cultivators were instantly wounded in the face of the star-studded Sun Shadow Blazing Eye.
“Holy weapon!” someone in the crowd exclaimed: “The long sword in her hand is a Holy weapon!”
Elder Ma, with a grim expression, walked toward Han Yan’er. Han Yan’er looked at Elder Ma indifferently, and as soon as she saw the momentum bursting from Elder Ma’s body, she instantly showed a strong will to fight.
“Let me do it!” Hua Youyue suddenly said with the same gentle smile at the corner of her mouth, seemingly not worried about Yang Zhen at all.
Only Han Yan’er seemed a little surprised. Given Hua Youyue’s character, if she weren’t worried about Yang Zhen, why would she take action against Elder Ma?
Elder Ma turned ghoulishly grey and was just about to say something when two muffled groans were heard. On top of the ice palace, both Liang Lie and Yang Zhen spat out a mouthful of fresh blood at the same time..
