Chapter 514: Chapter 514: Dumbfounded Qingyun Zhenren, Dialogue between the Two Ancestors
Reinforcements?
Zhu Yongfu and Xiao Fangu’s eyes flickered.
Could it be that a Great Power from the Prophet Clan was about to descend upon the Shenzhou Continent?
Thinking of this, the two of them became excited at once.
Paper Fan Young Master said nothing, his expression indifferent.
He had already contacted the “reinforcements” through a secret technique, confident that it wouldn’t be long before there was a response.
At that moment, Xiao Fangu thought of something and said,
“Pavilion Master, I plan to return to Qingyun Sect to see if anything has happened recently.”
“You may,” agreed Paper Fan Young Master.
…
Several hours later.
Inside the Sect Master’s Grand Hall of Qingyun Sect.
“What did you say? Qingyun Zhenren took the sect’s only Spirit Tree and ran away?” Xiao Fangu grabbed an elder by the collar, lifting him into the air, his eyes full of astonishment.
The Sect Leader of Qingyun Sect was so cowardly that he had fled in the night?
This news truly infuriated Xiao Fangu.
After all, he was the leader of a Star-Level Sect. Yet, before Misty Sect had even hinted at attacking, Qingyun Zhenren had already run away overnight, like a scared mouse!
“Foolish, cowardly, cannot be relied upon!”
Xiao Fangu flung the elder out, standing at the door, too angry to speak.
The elder fell to the ground, his face full of grievance.
The one who ran away was Qingyun Zhenren; go find him, what skill is there in bullying a minor elder like me?
He grumbled to himself.
…
At this moment, in the Nanwen Thirteen States.
After a long journey, Qingyun Zhenren finally reached the destination he had been longing for.
“After bypassing the mountain ahead, we should see the bustling mortal realm kingdom, the Nanwen Thirteen States,” he said.
“The beauties there, you must be anxious, right?”
“Hehehe!”
“Tonight, I, Qingyun Zhenren, want eighteen!”
“Hahahaha…”
Qingyun Zhenren laughed heartily to the sky.
But the next moment.
As he climbed over the mountain and looked down, he was stunned.
Why was the Nanwen Thirteen States, rumored to be densely populated and rich in lower-grade products, nothing but ruins?
Rubble lay everywhere.
All that was visible were skeletons.
There was a stench so foul it made one shiver.
“How could this be?”
Qingyun Zhenren’s eyes widened.
He refused to believe it and took out a map, checking it several times before confirming that this place was indeed the Nanwen Thirteen States.
“Damn it, who did this?”
Qingyun Zhenren became furious.
The Nanwen Thirteen States stretched for thousands of miles and had a population exceeding one hundred million, but as a mortal realm kingdom, it had few cultivators.
Among them, not even a Spirit Sea Realm existed.
Thus, any cultivator who had surpassed the Element Gathering Realm could annihilate the entire Nanwen Thirteen States.
“If I find out who did this, I’ll make sure they’re torn to pieces!”
Qingyun Zhenren was very angry.
He wandered around the Nanwen Thirteen States and realized that this place was not suitable as a new address for the sect.
Otherwise, if Qingyun Sect really moved here, they might encounter the terrifying power that had annihilated the entire Nanwen Thirteen States.
“Let’s head back!”
With a whoosh.
Qingyun Zhenren changed direction and sped towards the Southern River Basin.
He decided not to relocate.
…
In Jiaoyang Holy City.
The news of the battle for Mystique Kingdom had spread here, drawing the attention of many powers.
But to many Elder Ancestors of the Void Break Realm, the fight for Mystique Kingdom was trivial, not even reaching the third level of the Void Break Realm, and for them, it was child’s play.
Still, there were those who were highly concerned.
Within a dark and eerie palace,
“Misty Sect’s Sect Master Ye Feng, who can perfectly execute Emperor Beihe’s “Seven Steps to Heaven”, must have connections with him. This matter must be thoroughly investigated!”
“How shall we investigate?”
“Let’s not push too hard just yet, let’s play the long game… after all, this involves the legendary Emperor Beihe!”
“Yes.”
Soon, a young, handsome figure left the gloomy grand hall and headed toward the Teleportation Hall.
…
In the Mystique Kingdom.
Ancestor Jinling Avatar was sitting under a Divine Origin Realm ancient tree with Ancestor Lingmiao, chatting merrily.
Suddenly, Ancestor Lingmiao changed the subject:
“Jinling Daoist, do you know about ‘Seven Steps to Heaven’?”
When Ye Feng displayed this Divine Skill, Ancestor Lingmiao had already been very curious.
Now, having heard plenty of rumors from the Jiaoyang Holy City, he was gradually paying attention to the figure known as Emperor Beihe.
“This matter is of great significance!”
Ancestor Jinling Avatar finally spoke.
After pondering for a moment, he said:
“Long ago on the Shenzhou Continent, there emerged an exceptional genius, a monster in talent, who within a mere century, broke through to the peak of the Void Break Realm, known as Emperor Beihe.”
“This man, with extraordinary talent, created the Divine Skill ‘Seven Steps to Heaven,’ which could summon the Power of Heaven and Earth to aid him, unmatched in might.”
“In battles against those of the same realm, he was never defeated.”
“Even Quasi-Saints, when facing a slightly lower realm Emperor Beihe, would feel pressure.”
“However, many years ago, Emperor Beihe mysteriously disappeared, seemingly venturing into the vast and mysterious starry sky, and has not returned to this day.”
“Some say he met his demise.”
“Yet, others claim he has broken through to the Quasi-Saint or even the true Saint Realm, where his might pressures eons.”
Hearing this, Ancestor Lingmiao had an epiphany.
No wonder this Divine Skill was so formidable that it enabled Ye Feng to seriously injure the Ancestral Tree Demon’s Split Soul while only being in the Half-step Void Break Realm; it was because this spell was created by Emperor Beihe himself.
“Sect Master Ye’s fortune is as vast as the rainbow, truly the Chosen One!” Ancestor Lingmiao couldn’t help but exclaim.
Hearing this, Ancestor Jinling Avatar’s gaze flashed.
“Could it be that this Lingmiao fellow has also seen the secret that the Misty Sect is enshrouded by great destiny?”
He rolled his eyes and muttered to himself.
“By the way, shouldn’t we visit the Misty Sect and meet Young Friend Ye? I’ve heard he’s a Great Master of Magic with a high level of understanding of spells; perhaps we could have an exchange with him.”
Ancestor Lingmiao suddenly suggested.
Ancestor Jinling Avatar’s eyes lit up: “Good idea!”
The next moment, the two vanished through Instantaneous Movement.
For those in the Void Break Realm, tens of thousands of miles were but a few instant movements away.
Before long, the two appeared above the Misty Sect.
“Ah!”
Both exclaimed in surprise.
They exchanged glances and looked up at the sky, sensing the extraordinary atmosphere above the Misty Sect.
“It seems that the Misty Sect has set up a large formation that could threaten the lives of those in the Divine Origin Realm.”
Ancestor Jinling Avatar was the first to speak.
He had Opened the Sky Eye.
Therefore, he could see that the sky above the Misty Sect seemed to be covered by a second layer of starry sky, adding a sacred aura.
Of course, beneath the beauty, there lurked danger.
“This formation is very intricate; it seems to have a storing energy effect. If it’s not used for a long time, once it’s fully unleashed, no one below Half-step Void Break could withstand it.”
Ancestor Lingmiao also spoke up.
He didn’t Open the Sky Eye, but after all, as a Void Break Realm Ancestor, he soon uncovered some secrets.
“It looks like a very strong formation,” added Ancestor Jinling Avatar, admiration filled his eyes.
“Let’s not worry about the formation for now, let’s go see Sect Master Ye.”
With a flicker of their bodies, they landed on the summit of Misty Peak.
Although the Black and White Chessboard and the Five Elements Continuous Array were constantly active, they were virtually nonexistent in the presence of two Void Break Realm beings.
“Sect Master Ye.”
The two saw Ye Feng, who was lying on a recliner, sipping a brown, bubbly liquid with a look of contentment.
“Ah!”
Ye Feng looked at the two and immediately sat upright.
“How did you two come here?”
He hastily invited them to sit on the wicker chairs and filled their cups with Happy Water.
“Please, have some tea!” Ye Feng welcomed both.
“What is this?” asked Ancestor Jinling Avatar.
“Happy Water,” replied Ye Feng. “After drinking it, it makes one very happy.”
“Is that really so?”
The two Void Break Realm Ancestors looked at each other, skepticism in their eyes.
Clearly, they didn’t believe what Ye Feng was saying.
