As the Universe Turns - Chapter 301
Chapter 301 Manifest
“It really is that ancient Heavenly Scripture …”
Suddenly, many people flew over from afar. Their cultivation levels weren’t low, but none of them had attacked just now. Because there were rumors outside that Xiao Chen was pregnant with the Diabolism Sutra, they had been quietly watching from the shadows today.
He had just seen Xiao Chen easily receive Xu Ling’s three swords. He possessed such a strange cultivation technique and was able to resist hundreds of people. He was completely unharmed. If he did not possess that ancient heavenly book, how could he be reasonable?
At this moment, a trace of greed flashed in many people’s eyes. Although the ancient Heavenly Scripture had always been regarded as the Diabolism Heavenly Scripture, there was no one here who didn’t know that it had become Diabolism’s Heavenly Scripture only because it had fallen into the hands of Ancestor Diabolism’s Heavenly Heart more than 3,000 years ago. In fact, this Heavenly Scripture was all-enly Scripture and contained peerless divine arts. Who didn’t want to peek at it?
Back then, Patriarch Diabolism’s Heavenly Heart had only occasionally obtained one or two fragments before he had cultivated a peerless divine art. No one in the world could defeat him. In the end, if it weren’t for Xuanqing Sect’s ancestor, Xuan Zhenzi, joining forces with the ancestors of the other sects to resist him, it would be very difficult to say whether the current Xianyuan Ancient Land was under Diabolism or under the Righteous Dao.
And now, even though more than three thousand years had passed, no matter if it was the great devils in Diabolism or the people from the Righteous Sect, who didn’t want to obtain this Heavenly Book?
Right now, Yue Feng’s situation was complicated. There were thousands of people gathered today, not to mention two more Void Refining and Dao Harmonization Realm experts. Heaven knows if there were people from Diabolism outside, so none of the people from the various sects dared to act recklessly at this moment. However, only one thing was clear: it would be very difficult for Xiao Chen to escape completely today.
At this moment, in the Wind Cloud Pavilion, Huisi also gradually frowned. He had expected the situation today, but he was still a step too late to stop Xiao Chen from going up to Zhongyue Feng.
Last month, when there were rumors that Xiao Chen was going to go to Zhongyue Feng, how could Xuanqing Sect be unaware of it? However, if Xuanqing Sect also came today, the situation would definitely become more complicated. That was why Poria had asked him to come to Zhongyue Feng earlier.
Liu Xuanyang took two steps forward and his gaze fell on Xiao Chen. He was also certain that Xuanqing Sect’s people would not come here today, and the Seven Mysterious Azure Paragons would not come here either. That was why he was so confident and fearless.
He said indifferently, “Xiao Yichen, this is all over. Do you know how to get out of here?”
At this moment, the crowd that had been discussing all of a sudden quieted down. Everyone stared at Xiao Chen without saying a word. This person was pregnant with an ancient heavenly book. How could he leave this place today?
Xiao Chen looked at Liu Xuanyang without any fear in his eyes. He said indifferently, “Second Valley Master Liu wants that Heavenly Book. Everyone here wants that Heavenly Book. I wonder who I should give it to?”
At this point, his expression became even calmer. He smiled faintly and continued, “If Xiao handed this Heavenly Book to the Second Valley Master of Liu, I wonder if Cangfeng Valley would be annihilated overnight just like Ning Village did a few months ago …”
After finishing his last sentence, his gaze suddenly became sharp, causing many people present to shiver. A chill gradually rose from behind them.
Everyone thought about this ancient Heavenly Book, but it became the source of the calamity. Even if Xiao Chen took it out today, who would dare guarantee that he would be able to bring it away alive? Even if they were to be taken away, they would probably be pursued endlessly in the future.
Thinking of this, some people finally trembled slightly and subconsciously retreated backwards.
Xiao Chen’s gaze continued to fall on Liu Xuanyang. At this moment, his gaze became even sharper. “I wonder if the Second Valley Master of Liu Xuanyang knows who annihilated Ning Village a few months ago …”
Liu Xuanyang looked at him indifferently, “Who would have known that you would provoke countless enemies outside?”
“Is that so …”
Xiao Chen smiled coldly and looked at Master Zi Xu. “Master, can you still remember what you said last month outside Lian Hua Palace?”
Hearing this, everyone looked at Master Zi Xu again. However, Master Zi Xu stood there, holding a whisk in his hand, and remained silent.
Xiao Chen said indifferently, “Master asked Xiao if he dared to come to Zhongyue Feng’s gathering today. Could it be that he had forgotten so quickly?”
Everyone nearby didn’t understand what he meant, but Master Zixu was still silent. Xiao Chen continued, “Master, do you still remember that you brought people to Lianhua Palace last month to set up the Immortal Sinking Formation of the Jade Void Temple? If Xiao’s expectations weren’t bad, Master Zixu’s goal should be me, right?”
As soon as these words were spoken, many people in the vicinity began to whisper. However, Master Zi Xu remained silent. Xiao Chen walked closer to him and continued, “But today, Master did not set up the Immortal Sinking Formation. Why? Because you are no longer Master Zi Xu.”
Wasn’t it Master Zi Xu?
Everyone looked at each other when they heard this inexplicable sentence. What did it mean? What? Zixuan Shangren’s not Zixuan Shangren anymore? This in front of him was clearly Zixuan Shangren, could it still be fake?
“Show yourself!”
Without waiting for everyone to think about what was going on, Xiao Chen flew backwards and quickly formed a seal with his hands. In an instant, he executed the Soul Watching Technique.
At this moment, everyone felt a warm breeze sweeping past their heads. Apart from that, there was nothing unusual about it, and they could not detect anything else.
But what Xiao Chen saw at this moment was different, The Soul Observation Technique was a primordial spirit insight technique. In that instant, wherever his divine sense swept past, everything had turned black and white ink. Everyone present, including Liu Xuanyang, had turned black and white ink in his eyes. Only Zixuan Shangren’s body glowed with a layer of red light. This was enough to show that Zixuan Shangren had been taken away or controlled by a human primordial spirit.
“As expected …”
Xiao Chen’s eyes narrowed as he thought to himself that this person was able to control Zixuan Shangren with a wisp of soul essence, and his strength could be imagined.
“Haha …”
At this moment, a strange smile suddenly flashed across Zixuan Shangren’s face. In the next moment, he actually attacked him. Xiao Chen was already prepared. He formed a seal with both hands and used the Soul Strengthening Technique in an instant. With a “clang” sound, the Zixuan Shangren in front of him only sent him flying, not injuring his primordial spirit.
“What’s going on …”
Everyone in the distance was shocked. All they saw was “Zixuan Shangren” suddenly attacking Xiao Chen. They didn’t know that Zixuan Shangren was already controlled by someone’s soul essence.
Xiao Chen stood firm, his hands sealed, and he still maintained his Soul Strengthening Technique. He used his spiritual will to say, “Who exactly are you? Why did you lure me into this trap?”
“Haha, guess what …”
Zixuan Shangren smiled craftily, but no one else could see or hear all of this. Xiao Chen’s eyes turned cold, “Don’t guess, I’ll see how long you can hide in Zixuan Shangren’s body!” As soon as he finished speaking, he instantly rode the Cold Xi Sword. At this moment, the Cold Xi Sword’s body flashed with light, and a terrifying sword qi pierced through the surroundings.
