As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1069
Chapter 1069 Incoming Attack
This suffocating feeling lasted for about a cup of tea, and then it quickly disappeared. It was like a tidal wave, and also like a tidal wave. The dark clouds in the sky also began to dissipate, as if nothing had happened. Everything returned to calm once again.
“Alright, what exactly is going on …”
At this moment, many people’s faces were still slightly pale. A layer of cold sweat condensed behind them. Looking in the direction where the dark clouds dissipated, they were unable to regain their senses for a moment. This time, it was the same as yesterday. What was going on?
A few days passed like this. Every time the aura enveloped them, it would soon dissipate. Sometimes at noon, sometimes at midnight. Every time, it made the people in Celestial Pogoda extremely nervous.
Over the past few days, everyone’s hearts had been tense. Under such a long period of high tension, it was inevitable that some people with lower cultivation levels would eventually collapse and go crazy. They even ignored the mountain pulse to the north, but they would be brought back in time by the Elders of Celestial Pogoda.
During this period of time, the cultivators of Heavenly Peak City were still searching in the central Heavenly Peak Mountain Range. Although they had noticed something strange on Celestial Pogoda’s side, very few people came over to take a look.
On this day, at noon, the originally clear sky suddenly became cloudy. All the disciples immediately became vigilant. It must be the aura from a few days ago that enveloped them. However, this time, I wonder if the people from Xuanxiao Palace really attacked.
As the clouds got closer and closer, everyone became more and more nervous. At this moment, a cold voice suddenly came from Celestial Pogoda, “Don’t leave this time.”
Hearing this voice, all the disciples were shocked. It was … Senior Brother Wu Chen!
The moment he finished speaking, a golden palm shadow stretched out from the pagoda and grabbed towards the depths of the dark clouds.
“That’s …”
Many disciples were shocked when they saw the palm shadow stretching out from the pagoda. Obviously, they recognized that it was Daoist Gudeng’s “Great Freedom Hand”.
However, Daoist Gudeng’s Great Freedom Divine Ability was truly too profound. They were simply unable to comprehend it, unable to comprehend how to cultivate, and Senior Brother Wu Chen had actually … cultivated to such an extraordinary level!
The 10,000-meter-long palm shadow suddenly flew away, as if it was overturning the rivers and the seas, causing the dark clouds in the sky to immediately surge up. At this moment, the suffocating aura was also shattered.
After the dark clouds dissipated, the distant sky was densely packed with figures. In recent years, Xuanxiao Palace’s influence had been expanding in the dark. Thirty-six islands, seventy-two domains … Obviously, these people were the experts inside.
“What? Is there only such a small number of people here today?”
Just as everyone was nervous, a figure flew down from the tower. His white hair was drifting like ice, and it was Xiao Chen.
“Senior Brother Wu Chen …”
After seeing him descend from the pagoda, many disciples calmed down and quickly surrounded him.
As for Xiao Chen, he still looked at the figures in the distance. His divine sense did not discover the abyss-like aura he had unintentionally sensed that day.
At this moment, many people from the other factions thought to themselves. Indeed, as the rumors had it, True Monarch Xuanxiao had already secretly controlled a lot of factions … This time, it would probably be difficult to deal with.
“Lord Lustless Heaven, we … have finally met.”
Just as everyone held their breath and focused, a faint voice finally came from the distant horizon. It was like a celestial realm in the clouds. At first, it sounded like it was far away from the horizon, but in the end, it sounded like it was ringing in everyone’s ears, causing their hearts to tremble … It was True Monarch Xuanxiao!
“What a strong aura …”
Even Murong Xi, Qin Tianzong, and the others present felt their breathing stifled at this moment. It could be seen that the strength of the person who came far exceeded their expectations.
As for those with lower cultivation, if it weren’t for the fact that Celestial Pogoda still had a defensive formation, they probably wouldn’t be able to withstand this terrifying aura anymore. True Monarch Xuanxiao’s cultivation was completely different from theirs.
That terrifying aura was getting closer and closer. In the distance, the dense figures in the air quickly moved to both sides. The clouds surged endlessly. Within the clouds, a scarlet sword light was getting closer and closer. In the end, it turned into a figure that hung in the air.
At this moment, everyone in Celestial Pogoda held their breath. Four Daoists came out of the tower at some unknown time and stood side by side with Xiao Chen. He looked at the figure in the sky and remained silent.
It was a man dressed in red. There was a scarlet mark between his eyebrows. His eyes were as cold as ice. His aura was extremely deep, giving off an abyss-like feeling. Even if he was just heading there, it instantly intimidated many people.
“Is that person True Monarch Xuanxiao?”
Actually, there were many people present who had never seen True Monarch Four Seas before. At this moment, seeing True Monarch Xuanxiao, many people’s hearts trembled. It was hard to see how powerful this person’s cultivation was.
During this period of time, the cultivators of Dongcheng City had already left Celestial Pogoda. At this moment, Celestial Pogoda was like a lonely peak that stood here, ready to defend against enemies from all directions.
“Since ancient times, Celestial Pogoda and the Four Seas and Eight Desolates have never offended each other. Why does True Monarch Xuanxiao insist on making things difficult for me, Celestial Pogoda?”
At this moment, Daoist Taiwu took a step forward and stared at True Monarch Xuanxiao in the distance. Even though his cultivation was far inferior to True Monarch Xuanxiao’s, his words at this moment were neither humble nor arrogant.
The other three Daoist Priests also frowned. They knew that this battle was inevitable, but they still hoped that the two sides could stop fighting.
“I’m in a dilemma. What’s in a dilemma?”
True Monarch Xuanxiao took two steps forward and his gaze landed on Four Daoists. He was like two sharp unsheathed blades, “Great Xiamen will fall, and it will be difficult to survive on its own. However, how can the four of you resolve Celestial Pogoda’s fate overnight? Since that’s the case, why are you still forcefully occupying the underground spirit veins …”
Hearing what he said, the four of them frowned even deeper. Indeed, it was for Celestial Pogoda’s Spiritual Bloodline Force.
Although the earth vein power beneath Celestial Pogoda was not the main vein of the seven earth spirit veins in the human realm, it was also related to the lifeline of the entire Celestial Pogoda.
Celestial Pogoda was able to stand here for thousands of years without collapsing. It was all thanks to this earth vein. If he handed over this earth vein, then Celestial Pogoda’s survival would truly be a one-day change.
True Monarch Lonely Lamp said, “If True Monarch is here for the Earth Vein of Celestial Pogoda, then forgive us … we cannot hand over this Earth Vein.”
“Even if you resist desperately, it will only be futile in the end.”
True Monarch Xuanxiao’s gaze finally fell on Xiao Chen. “Looks like the Lord of Lustless Heaven is determined to make an enemy of Xuanxiao Palace today.”
At this moment, Xiao Chen also looked at him with a cold and indifferent gaze. “When you came to Lustless Heaven that day and wanted to kill me, did you ever think that you and I would be enemies today?”
As soon as these words were spoken, many people in the distance were shocked. They were all thinking in their hearts, it turned out that the two of them really had a grudge against each other a long time ago, not overnight.
“Twenty-four years ago, in order to obtain the Nine Transformations, True Monarch Xuanxiao killed my master and slaughtered my entire Miraculous Pivot Palace Clan. Today, is True Monarch finally willing to show up?”
Right at this moment, a cold voice sounded from behind the crowd. Such a cold voice instantly caused people to feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar. Looking back, they saw a woman from Zi Yi slowly walking up. It was none other than Shen Jing.
However, her face was covered in dark clouds and her eyes were filled with hatred and killing intent. At this moment, she was as if she had fallen into an icy abyss. It was really difficult for people to associate her with the benevolent heart of a doctor.
Suddenly, a purple aura of coldness wrapped around her body. Even people with cultivation levels like Qin Tianzong and the others couldn’t help but feel stifled. What kind of cultivation method was this? It was so frightening …
And what she said just now, Miraculous Pivot Palace’s entire sect was annihilated …
At this moment, many people looked at True Monarch Xuanxiao, their faces more or less shocked. Twenty years ago, Miraculous Pivot Palace was annihilated overnight. This caused a huge uproar in Immortal North Ancient Realm, and it was unknown who the murderer was.
But who would associate this murderer with True Monarch Black Firmament? In the eyes of the world, True Monarch Xuanxiao was still an extraordinary expert from the outside world. How could he do such a terrifying thing?
Outside Celestial Pogoda, there were quite a few cultivators on some of the mountain peaks. Obviously, they were attracted by the commotion here. When they saw what was happening in Celestial Pogoda, many people revealed expressions of shock.
Just now, they had heard what was said with their divine sense. Twenty years ago, Miraculous Pivot Palace was annihilated overnight. Who was the murderer? It was actually True Monarch Xuanxiao? How is this possible …
“Nonsense!”
True Monarch Xuanxiao waved his sleeves and his voice shook the surroundings. At this moment, he looked as if he was still the extraordinary True Monarch.
“Whether you admit it or not, it doesn’t matter anymore.”
Shen Jing’s expression was gloomy. Suddenly, her profound arts were activated, and she activated the Nine Transformations of the Mysterious Book. At this moment, a cold aura pervaded her body, causing everyone’s hearts to tremble. This was …
True Monarch Xuanxiao’s eyes narrowed as he thought to himself, “As expected of that ancient book, the Nine Transformations. It is indeed formidable. In just twenty years, this woman has actually become so …”
Shen Jing’s Nine Transformations were already very powerful. In addition to Ku Lingzi’s guidance over the years, it caused her to travel thousands of kilometers. Especially last year, before Ku Lingzi was captured, she even wrote down everything she wanted. In this past year, no one had seen how she had risked her life to cultivate.
Even Xiao Chen didn’t expect that she would actually …
It was hard to imagine that this year, he would often be away, and Shen Jing had spent ten times as much effort as others in order to avenge herself and save Ku Lingzi, and she had suffered a hundred times more than others.
He didn’t know all of this, only today did he see it.
“So Miss Shen’s cultivation is actually like this …”
Far away, Feng Ren Sect couldn’t help but feel stifled. For the past few days, he had always thought that the other party was only skilled in medicine. He never expected that the other party’s cultivation … was actually not inferior to any of them!
