As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1152
Chapter 1152 Nine Heavens!
“Senior Brother …”
Qianyu Nichang was also stunned. In that instant, even she could feel Xiao Chen’s murderous aura, which had suddenly grown much heavier.
Zhu Que, who was stopping Ghost Saint and the others, also seemed to pause for a moment. In the next moment, he no longer hesitated. He condensed his finger and a crimson profound light flew out, causing Xiao Chen’s Divine Wings on Zhu Que’s back to strengthen greatly. He immediately flew towards the ninth level of the sky with him.
“Senior Brother!”
Looking at Liu Wuxin, Xiao Meng’er instantly flew over and caught Liu Wuxin, who had fallen from the sky. Originally, he was dressed in white like snow, but now, he was dyed in blood and was shocking.
“Junior Sister, I… I’m fine. Hurry, hurry up.”
Blood gushed out of Liu Wuxin’s mouth. Not only had he been heavily injured by Di Gu Sword’s sword strike earlier, but his internal organs had almost been shattered by Xiao Chen’s palm strike.
Xiao Meng’er’s face was deathly pale. The moment she raised her head to look at Xiao Chen, her eyes were filled with cold killing intent.
At this moment, Xiao Chen borrowed the power of Zhu Que’s divine wings and continued to fly towards the ninth level of the sky. However, the moment he turned around, he saw Xiao Meng’er’s murderous gaze.
“Junior Sister … go …”
Liu Wuxin used her last bit of strength to push her towards the ninth level of the sky, while her body fell towards a floating boulder.
“Senior Brother …”
Xiao Meng’er turned around and looked at him. Finally, she gritted her teeth, raised the Unsullied Lotus Platform, and flew towards the Ninth Heaven.
But at this moment, Qianyu Nichang stopped him. Xiao Meng’er’s eyes were cold and his face was filled with killing intent. He said coldly, “Get out of the way!”
Normally, her face was still like water, and her anger was unchanged. It was rare for her to reveal such a murderous aura.
However, Qianyu Nichang remained unmoved. With a “zheng” sound, the white light on the Autumn Water Sword increased greatly, revealing an icy cold sword intent as it headed straight towards Xiao Meng’er!
At this moment, Xiao Meng’er’s aura also increased a lot. Suddenly, both of his hands formed a seal, and a profound light seal technique suddenly shot towards Qianyu Nichang.
A seemingly inconspicuous profound light actually contained extremely powerful profound energy. Even though Qianyu Nichang had three flowers gathering at the top, he did not dare to be careless at this moment. He turned his sword and blocked the incoming profound light seal art, but at this moment, another palm wind suddenly enveloped her. The Dao Art and Ancient Martial Arts circulated smoothly!
“This is …”
In the distance, many people were shocked. Xiao Meng’er’s left palm was dry, and her right palm was kun. Her two palms sent out at the same time. Her seemingly ordinary palm actually concealed unparalleled stamina. Every time he encountered resistance, he would be strong. He would release nine palm forces, one stronger than the other, and it would have the power to move mountains and topple seas!
“Nine Firmament Blue Falling Palm!”
At this moment, many people cried out in alarm, and Qianyu Nichang also reacted in an instant. This palm seemed to be weak, but he was afraid that he could not defend against it directly.
However, she was still a step slower. The palm force instantly arrived, and the palm wind also instantly blocked her path of retreat in all directions. If she did not use her strength to block, she would only be like the nearby boulders, instantly turning into powder.
At this moment, Qianyu Nichang had weighed the pros and cons and instantly condensed her strength. However, she did not know the power of the Nine Firmaments Blue Falling Palm. If she used her strength to block it so rashly, the second palm strength had already caused her heart to tremble.
The third palm force, the fourth palm force … were even more like violent winds and waves. One was stronger than the other, causing her to continuously retreat. Even the nearby boulders were shattered into powder by the impact of the palm force!
High up in the sky, Xiao Chen could also feel this terrifying palm force. He couldn’t help but look back at Qianyu Nichang. But now, the “cold sun” he had left for the Ninth Heaven was less than a hundred feet away.
At this moment, when the seventh palm strike came, Qianyu Nichang was almost unable to resist it. With a push from the Genuine energy all over his body, he circulated the Shangshan Ruoshui’s mental energy to the extreme, gradually dissipating the palm power of the Nine Firmaments Blue Falling Palm.
If it weren’t for the fact that she possessed a profound technique like the [Weak Water Three Thousand], she would have been able to suppress the strength of her opponent with softness, otherwise, she would have been injured by the Nine Firmaments Blue Falling Palm.
However, even so, when the ninth palm strike came, the violent and violent palm force still engulfed her in an instant, and it finally shook her so much that she continuously flew backwards.
The Nine Firmaments Blue Falling Palm was a peerless technique of the Xiao Clan. It was passed down from the Xiao Clan of the Central Plains in the Ancient Oriental Cultivation World. Unfortunately, many of its essence had already been lost. Only the remaining fragments were left for future generations to comprehend.
Obviously, Xiao Meng’er’s Nine Firmaments Blue Falling Palm had not reached the Transformation Realm. It was far inferior to Xiao Zhufeng’s. If Xiao Zhufeng had sent out the Nine Firmaments Blue Falling Palm earlier, even if Qianyu Nichang had the Three Flowers Gathering Summit and the Weak Water Three Thousand Cultivation Technique, it would still be extremely difficult to resist it at this moment.
At this moment, after pushing Qianyu Nichang back, Xiao Meng’er did not chase after him. Instead, he instantly lifted up the Unsullied Lotus Platform and chased after Xiao Chen in the ninth level of the sky.
After Qianyu Nichang stabilized his body, he couldn’t help but frown. That palm technique just now was truly astonishing. Indeed, there was something in the Ancient Martial Dao that even a single profound sect couldn’t compare to.
Seeing that Xiao Meng’er was flying towards the sky, he was about to rush into the cold sun in the blink of an eye. Qianyu Nichang did not hesitate, and his Genuine energy turned into a ray of light as he rushed up.
In the end, under everyone’s breath-holding gaze, Xiao Chen rushed into the cold sun first. The Zhu Que Divine Wings on his back helped him defend against the strong winds and restrictions outside the cold sun. In an instant, they dissipated, turning into specks of fiery red starlight that circled around him. Finally, as he flew into the cold sun, the fiery red starlight also dissipated.
Immediately after, the lotus platform beneath Xiao Meng’er’s feet suddenly bloomed with lotus shadows, covering her entire body. It also helped her resist the strong winds and restrictions outside the cold sun and rushed in.
Finally, Qianyu Nichang swept his sword horizontally, and the Autumn Water Sword Intent immediately circled around her body, protecting her for an instant and flying into the cold sun.
After the three of them rushed in, the cold sun in the sky disappeared and the only passage to the Ninth Heaven was temporarily closed.
At this moment, the cultivators below also stopped fighting. Many of them were still staring blankly at the sky, recalling the scene just now. It was as if they were still in a dream.
Liu Wuxin landed on a huge boulder, her body drenched in blood, shocking to the eye, and many people in the distance began to whisper.
Liu Wuxin was a disciple of the Immortal Joan Sect’s Immortal Monarch Donghua, while Xiao Yichen was a disciple of Xuanqing Sect’s Fairy Miaoyin, yet Liu Wuxin was injured so badly that he almost lost his life … Does this mean that the Immortal Joan Sect’s Dao Art is inferior to Xuanqing Sect’s Dao Art?
The discussion grew louder and louder, spreading from ear to ear. All of them began to discuss. Behind a dark stone, King Qinguang of the Abyss of Ten Thousand Ghosts was standing there. The Abyss of Ten Thousand Ghosts was a terrifying place. Many sects were afraid of them, but of course, there were also people who were not afraid of them. The Immortal Qiong Sect was one of them …
At this moment, a cold light suddenly flashed in King Qinguang’s eyes. If the Immortal Qiong Sect were to fight against the Xuanqing Sect …
Thinking of this, he quietly sent a finger force towards the severely injured Liu Wuxin. No one noticed this finger force nearby, but in the distance, Zhu Que instantly noticed it. He also condensed his finger and with a “whoosh” sound, a finger force flew over, and a “bang” sound cancelled out King Qinguang’s finger force.
Then, Zhu Que’s figure moved and he instantly arrived beside Liu Wuxin. Genuine energy’s palm condensed and rested on his shoulder, helping him recover from his injuries. At the same time, he looked at the dark stone in the distance and said indifferently, “How did we do this to injure someone with a hidden arrow?”
At this moment, many people in the vicinity regained their senses and looked towards the dark stone, but they had long since disappeared without a trace.
“Uh …”
Under Zhu Que’s merit, Liu Wuxin gushed out a mouthful of blood and said with a deathly pale face, “Thank you for saving me, Your Excellency.”
Zhu Que wore a mysterious mask. No one could see his face, nor could they see his expression, nor did they know what he was thinking.
After a while, after Liu Wuxin’s injuries stabilized, he stood up and looked towards the Ghost Saint and the others in the distance. He said indifferently, “How about this? Do you guys from the Heavenly Curtain still want to continue to compete with me here?”
Everyone immediately looked over to where the six Ghost Saint cultivators were. Ghost Saint Feng Jingyun’s expression was gloomy, his hands behind his back, and his clothes were calm, looking especially deep.
At this moment, in his heart, he naturally already knew the strength of this Zhu Que in front of him. With just one person’s strength, he could stop the six of them. One could imagine their cultivation. However, in his heart, he did not know what kind of ulterior motives Tianzhu City had this time …
…
The nine heavens were completely silent. However, this silence was not deathly lifeless, but rather … it was extremely cold from a high place.
Back then, the world knew that there was only one person who had come to the ninth level of the heavens. That person was Xiao Zhufeng, who had betrayed the Xiao Clan.
As for whether anyone else had arrived at the ninth level of the heavens like him that time, it was unknown.
In front of him, a dense fog slowly gathered. Xiao Chen walked in this dense fog and gradually felt as if he had fallen into a dream. In the entire nine heavens, it was as if he was the only one left. There was no one else.
Although Xiao Meng’er and Qianyu Nichang rushed up with him almost at the same time, at this moment, he could not sense the aura of the other two people. He did not know where they were.
After walking for about half an hour, the thick fog in front of him was about to disperse, but it gathered again, one layer at a time, not knowing where to take him.
Why was there an indescribable strange feeling in the nine heavens?
At this moment, the thick fog in front of him suddenly dispersed to both sides. A strange path slowly appeared in the middle. Xiao Chen held his breath and stepped into the path. As he stepped in, the fog on both sides dissipated even faster. However, he did not know what was waiting for him at the end of the thick fog.
“Haha …”
Suddenly, a strange and gloomy laugh came from the depths of the thick fog. In such a quiet place, there was actually such a strange laugh. It was truly unexpected that there was actually someone who arrived at the ninth level of the heavens before him.
However, at this moment, Xiao Chen’s face did not reveal much surprise. His gaze was similarly cold as he coldly looked in the direction of the voice, “Who is this person pretending to be a ghost?”
