Lord Shenxiu-Chapter 490: Many Treasures (Request for Monthly Pass)
Chapter 490: Chapter 490: Many Treasures (Request for Monthly Pass)
"Damn it... how are there more demons, assassinating the Daoyuan Pavilion?"
Outside the Daoyuan Pavilion.
Bai Yunxian casually crushed a Demon Dao Divine Ability Practitioner to death and looked at the pavilion filled with ordinary servants, yet a few key people were missing. She was absolutely furious.
"Bai Lingguan!"
Han Shanggong shrieked, "Why were our County Lord and the Fourth Prince dragged into Yin City? Could it be that this great array has been infiltrated?"
Bai Yunxian’s face was incomparably gloomy, and she did not refute.
Moreover, there was an even more terrifying speculation in her heart.
The Demon Sect’s sixth path had no use in killing a Prince, and if they were to assassinate someone, they would go after the old emperor.
The death of the Fourth Prince would only benefit those Princes who coveted the throne, such as the Second Prince and the Eighth Prince!
Only with the direction of someone from the high ranks of the court could parts of the array be activated without her knowledge, despite her being the Spirit Official in charge of Daze City.
’With the nation in such dire straits, there’s still this struggle for power and profit...’
’Even, collusion with the enemy to plot against one’s own blood!’
She looked at her own subordinates but had no idea who might have done such a thing, feeling so bad that she wanted to kill someone.
"Spirit Official, do not be angry!"
A Golden Que Doctor from the Mystic Sky Bureau stepped forward, facing Bai Yunxian’s murderous gaze, and said with a trembling scalp, "It will only take thirty minutes for the array to return to normal and release those who were pulled into Yin City..."
"Thirty minutes? The Fourth Prince and Lord Qingyuan could have died numerous times by then."
Bai Yunxian let out a cold hum.
Just then, she saw the overlap of the yin and yang realms.
A beam of light containing the five elements in five colors, yet transcending the five elements and filled with a sense of great annihilation, suddenly burst forth from the void, almost with the power to split the two realms!
The Daoyuan Pavilion’s structures shook, and countless bricks and tiles shattered.
The void seemed to have broken a hole, from which two people fell out — it was the Fourth Prince and Lord Qingyuan!
"Is this... cultivators clashing, breaking the barrier of the array?"
Bai Yunxian hurriedly moved forward to protect the two nobles, yet incredulously said, "This yin and yang twin cities’ array was intended to protect civilians during a great war... Once someone is pulled into Yin City, even a Primordial Pill Cultivator would find it difficult to break through... It is said that it can withstand fighting of Primordial Spirits at its highest limit, so why... has it cracked in one corner?"
As she was astonished, she heard the Fourth Prince’s voice, "Quick... send word to Changluo, it was the Faceless Buddha!"
"An Evil Dao Primordial Spirit Ancestor!"
Bai Yunxian felt a chill run down her limbs and her first instinct was to flee.
Fortunately, she remembered that if the Fourth Prince was alive, there must also be a Primordial Spirit Ancestor siding with the Imperial Family protecting him, so she didn’t abandon her post and run for her life.
This was because the might of the Primordial Spirit was too terrifying!
It was widely known that during times of peace, neither the Immortal Strain nor the Dharma Body Sect Master level figures would appear, and the highest activity was from Primordial Pill and Primordial Spirit Practitioners.
Even a Primordial Pill Cultivator who had reached Three Calamities Perfection would not be a match for any Primordial Spirit!
Upon refining a Primordial Spirit, not only was their lifespan extended, but they also became almost indestructible!
Most of the spells and Divine Skills in this world, even Spiritual Treasures... were incapable of truly harming a Primordial Spirit!
This was the consensus among all the cultivators in this world.
The only ones who could contend with Primordial Spirit Ancestors were those of the same rank or higher, mightier beings!
In the high sky, a sinister monk suddenly appeared.
He was dressed in a large red monk’s robe embroidered with countless strange symbols, with a tall stature. Even more important... his face was blurred, with no distinguishable features!
The Evil Dao Primordial Spirit Ancestor — the Faceless Buddha!
"Who dares harm my Primordial Spirit!"
At this moment, the Primordial Spirit Ancestor let out a cry of alarm and fear.
As a Primordial Spirit Ancestor, the Great Five Elements Annihilation Light emitted by Zhong Shenxiu was without a doubt capable of destroying a Primordial Spirit!
"Disturbing the peace in the middle of the night, you deserve a beating!"
Zhong Shenxiu appeared calm and composed, stretched languidly, and suddenly, a flag appeared in his hand.
The Ancient Seven Flames Banner!
This Spiritual Treasure itself possessed the might of a Primordial Spirit and in the hands of a Primordial Spirit Practitioner, its power was unleashed to the fullest extent.
Flames blazed furiously, sweeping across the heavens instantaneously.
The red glow spread for thousands of miles, the Seven Ancient Spiritual Flames covering the sky and earth, with the power to burn mountains, boil seas, and destroy the heavens and earth!
The endless inferno turned into massive, surging waves that instantly engulfed the Faceless Buddha...
The next moment, infinite chanting arose from the sea of fire, transforming into pitch-black swastika characters, dense and numerous, resembling a flat boat, traversing atop the sea of flames.
The silhouette of the Faceless Buddha reemerged, already half his clothes burned away, his face ashen and dusty, thoroughly embarrassing.
"When did such a Primordial Spirit like yourself appear in the world?"
The Faceless Buddha’s voice conveyed his wariness.
At the same time, he swiftly pondered whether among the sects of the world or the Loose Cultivators overseas, there was such a Primordial Spirit expert in fire spells?
On the ground below, Bai Yunxian protected the Fourth Prince and Lord Qingyuan behind him, solemnly warning, "Although the Primordial Spirit is not a Dharma Body, revealing even a part of the Immortal transformation is very dangerous. It’s best for both of you not to watch the battlefield anymore..."
"I have an imperial protective charm..."
Lord Qingyuan looked toward the battlefield with concern, while the Fourth Prince, visibly shocked, asked in a hoarse voice, "The Faceless Buddha seems to be a Primordial Spirit Ancestor, right? So Young Master Shen Xiu..."
Bai Yunxian showed a bitter smile: "He’s naturally also a Primordial Spirit, and moreover, I heard that when the Faceless Buddha defected from Vajra Temple, he had already transcended one tribulation. By now, he probably has transcended two... He practices both Buddha and Demon arts, and even among Primordial Spirits, he is known for being difficult to deal with."
Seeing Young Master Shen Xiu, who just a few years ago had formed his Primordial Pill and was now already a Primordial Spirit, and not just any Primordial Spirit but one with high Mana,
Three Calamities True Man Bai Yunxian felt his entire life was practically lived in vain.
No, saying he lived in vain would be an insult to dogs!
"Primordial Spirit!"
"This person just formed his Primordial Pill a few years ago..."
The Fourth Prince exclaimed with great surprise, "There must be a huge secret upon him... No, Young Master Shen Xiu came from unknown origins; perhaps he has always been a Primordial Spirit Ancestor, disguised as a Divine Power Practitioner, a Primordial Pill Cultivator, playing in the dust and wind of the world..."
"No matter what, with an assassination attempt first occurring in such a critical area and now a Primordial Spirit showing up, this matter will surely be sent to our father the Emperor’s desk... Might this Young Master Shen Xiu be recruited by the Imperial Family?"
...
Zhong Shenxiu couldn’t care less about what the people below thought.
Since he dared to reveal his name and strength, he naturally had made subsequent plans.
With his current strength, he might not be able to defeat a Dharma Body, but he should be able to escape.
Even if the corpse of an Immortal’s kin personally made a move, then at worst, he’d simply die...
*Cough cough*... it would be feigning death to escape.
In that case, why bother being overly cautious?
"The power of the Primordial Spirit Practitioners in this world does indeed far surpass Little Taihuangtian by quite a bit... This Faceless Buddha is stronger than Yi Tianchou!"
"Alas... he met me!"
Zhong Shenxiu didn’t use any Immortal Qi Divine Light; he looked at the Faceless Buddha scrambling desperately in the sea of fire and cheerfully took out a Yellow Gourd, yelling, "Please turn around, treasure!"
The Faceless Buddha suddenly felt an overwhelming sense of palpitations, his Primordial Spirit frantically warning him, as if facing a destructive, terrifying crisis!
Whoosh!
The next moment, a supremely fierce Sword Qi violently burst forth from the Immortal Slaying Gourd!
