As the Universe Turns - Chapter 833
Chapter 833 An Unparalleled Calamity
At this moment, Xiao Chen circulated the Jade Light Heart Technique, causing his heart to completely calm down. He looked at him and said, “Senior, I misunderstood. I am just remembered … that there was once someone in the world who could not accommodate me and her …”
“Oh?”
Guan Zhen looked at him and smiled meaningfully. He didn’t continue to ask. At this moment, Qianluo stood by the side, listening to what he had just said over and over again. Was that the person he had worked so hard to save, even if he didn’t want to die?
Xiao Chen took two steps forward and asked, “I am just heard Senior say ‘Heavenless Palace’. I wonder where this Heavenless Palace is …”
“Heavenless Palace …”
Guan Zhen took a deep breath and shook his head, “That is one of the most mysterious forces in Spirit Ruins Realm. Legend has it that it was originally founded by the six great families. Of course, this is only a legend. As for who really controls Heavenless Palace behind it, no one knows …”
“Thank you for telling me, Senior.”
Xiao Chen roughly understood. It was like the Heavenly Gate outside Xianyuan Five Realms. However, this Heavenless Palace was much more mysterious than the Heavenly Gate. There was no doubt about its strength.
“Alright, the shock just now has probably caused the people above to be alarmed. Little friend, you can go down now. I’ll wait for good news …”
Guan Zhen slowly said as he closed his eyes.
“Luo Die, let’s go.”
Xiao Chen no longer hesitated. He looked at Qianluo and immediately went forward. He didn’t know where the front was, but it was still in this illusion. However, the terrain was low. He had to find a cave, then lay some defenses outside the cave, and then let Luo Die guard outside. Only in this way would he be able to use his cultivation peacefully.
About half an hour later, the two of them arrived at the top of a valley. Spiritual Energy was constantly seeping up from the bottom of the valley. Even though Xiao Chen’s perception of Spiritual Energy wasn’t as good as Hua Weiyang’s, they could still clearly sense that there should be the gathering point of Wushuang City’s ancestral vein power below.
“In the illusion, even if there are a hundred places that are empty, there is still one place that is real … It seems like this is the place.”
As Qianluo spoke, he turned to look at Xiao Chen and said, “Childe Xiao … are you going down now?”
“Mm …”
Xiao Chen nodded slightly. Without hesitation, he jumped down the valley and felt a surge of Spiritual Energy pounding towards his face. In a moment, it had already fallen to the bottom of the valley.
Qianluo also flew down. The two of them observed the surroundings for a while. Xiao Chen arrived at the deepest part of the valley. This should be the place closest to the power of the Unparalleled Ancestral Meridian.
The two of them found a cave and placed layers of illusion array restrictions outside. After that, Xiao Chen entered the cave and threw two more talismans at Qianluo: “If they are defeated, they can use this talisman to kill the flames in their hearts, or they can resist for a moment.”
Qianluo clenched the seal in her hand tightly and nodded. Without further ado, Guan Zhen had just passed on 30% of her internal strength, causing her ‘Thousand Day Heavenly Dipper Technique’ to directly break through to the third layer. Combined with the profound techniques she cultivated and her illusion skills, almost no one below the Harmonious Stage could be her opponent.
After Xiao Chen entered the cave, he immediately set up a barrier at the entrance of the cave. Then, he sat down cross-legged and began to slowly breathe.
If a cultivator breaks through their cultivation, most of the disciples with shallow cultivation will be guarded by their master or elders to prevent them from going into the Devil Realm. However, if their cultivation has reached the Transformation Realm, they will often go out to search for places rich in landscape spiritual energy and use the spiritual veins of mountains, rivers, and the spiritual energy essence of heaven and earth to break through their cultivation.
Previously, Xiao Chen had fused with that strand of Primordial Chaos Purple Qi and his cultivation had greatly improved. Now, if he could fully utilize Wushuang City’s ancestral vein, it was not impossible for him to break through to the True Cave Stage.
About an hour later, he had already finished breathing. Suddenly, he raised his palms and placed them in his dantian. Traces of true energy flowed endlessly from his body. The cultivation technique from the remnant of the book instantly appeared in his mind, causing the entire cave to instantly erupt with strong winds. An extremely powerful Spiritual Energy surged out from the ground towards him.
Outside the cave, Qianluo was slightly stunned. She could clearly feel the ground trembling. An extremely powerful Spiritual Energy was constantly surging upwards. This was the power of Wushuang City’s ancestral veins! Childe Xiao, he succeeded …
The ancestral vein was the fate of a clan. It was condensed from countless generations of people. Not to mention that it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to find the ancestral vein of a clan, even if they found it by chance, they would not be able to use it.
This time, not only did Xiao Chen find the ancestral veins of Beigong Changfeng’s bloodline by coincidence, he could also use the remnants of the Heavenly Book to absorb them for his own use, using the power of his ancestral veins to make a breakthrough in his cultivation. Perhaps, this was something that Beigong Changfeng would never have imagined.
Several hours later, the Spiritual Energy below the valley surged more and more violently. The entire valley trembled. Inside the cave, Xiao Chen closed his eyes and several streaks of brilliant light flowed around his body. He was like a celestial, illuminating the entire cave with exceptional brightness.
Qianluo knew that he was in a critical period of cultivation, so he didn’t dare to disturb him. He could only use this place to strengthen his Spiritual Energy and strengthen the restrictive magic array around the cave once more.
In Wushuang City above, the entire Wushuang City was shaking endlessly during these few hours. Spiritual Energy was rapidly losing its energy. The most serious place was the green peak where Beigong Clan was. The mountain was originally surrounded by spiritual energy all year round, and the vegetation did not wither. However, in these few hours, the spiritual energy on the mountain had actually greatly weakened. Many flowers, plants, and plants had withered and withered.
The cultivators in the city were puzzled. Why did the Spiritual Qi of Wushuang City suddenly start to disappear? Could it be because of the formation on the Thunder Heaven Prison side? In such a short period of time, how could they have imagined that something was wrong with the Unparalleled Ancestral Veins deep underground in Unparalleled City?
The disciples of Beigong Clan were even more panicked. The other cultivators of Wushuang City could only feel the spiritual energy around them rapidly disappearing. However, they could clearly feel that their own strength was also slowly being lost. It was as if the fate of the entire clan was constantly declining.
“Shit … it’s the ancestral vein!”
In the main hall, Beigong Changfeng’s expression suddenly changed. He was as pale as paper. It was as if he had finally thought that something was wrong with his ancestral veins. No wonder he was so slow to realize that most ordinary people thought that something was wrong with the formations in the city. How could he have imagined that Xiao Chen would be able to use the ancestral veins of other people’s families?
With a movement of his body, Beigong Changfeng instantly turned into a streak of light and went outside. When he arrived outside, he happened to meet three other people. That Old man Zi Yi noisily said, “Brother Changfeng, what’s going on here? It’s been several hours …”
“It’s too late to explain. Hurry up and go to the Thunder Heaven Prison!”
Beigong Changfeng’s expression was anxious. As soon as he finished speaking, he instantly headed towards Thunder Heaven Prison. The three people behind him exchanged glances and vaguely sensed that this matter had become somewhat serious. Without hesitation, they immediately chased after him.
The four of them arrived near the Thunder Heaven Prison. Beigong Changfeng’s face was still as pale as paper. He looked at the formation outside the Thunder Heaven Prison in disbelief and muttered, “It’s Wushuang City’s ancestral vein. The ancestral vein was touched by that brat …”
“What did you say …”
Old man Qingyi’s expression froze, and this time, even the usually unserious Old man Zi Yi’s expression changed. How could the ancestral veins here in Beigong Changfeng be moved by that brat …
“Shit …”
Looking at the imbalance in Spiritual Energy’s surroundings, the Spiritual Qi of the entire Wushuang City was rapidly dissipating. Beigong Changfeng’s expression became even uglier. “That kid, that kid is actually borrowing the power of his ancestral veins to break through his cultivation!”
“What?”
This time, even Old man Zi Yi was stunned. The ancestral vein was hidden deep underground. How could that brat … If the ancestral vein’s power were to be exhausted, the entire Wushuang City would become a dead city, covering a radius of several hundred kilometers with yellow sand, and not a single blade of grass would grow for a hundred years.
“Hurry! Maintain the formation … in case Spiritual Energy continues to dissipate!”
Beigong Changfeng had never panicked like this. In the past, no matter what happened, he could always treat it calmly. However, the matter of his ancestral bloodline was no small matter. From a smaller perspective, it was only his bloodline that had declined since then. But from a larger perspective, it would affect the entire Beigong Clan. If that was the case, then even if he died a hundred times, it would not be enough for him to apologize.
“Quick!”
Old man Qingyi did not hesitate and immediately returned to his previous position. The four of them worked together to stabilize the formation.
This time, even the three of them were so nervous. That was because their place was too close to Beigong Changfeng. Once the ancestral veins here in Beigong Changfeng collapsed, their place would definitely be affected.
Until nightfall, the spiritual energy in Wushuang City was still being drained away. The power of the ancestral vein was already being pulled, and it seemed that it could not be stopped.
“Shit …”
Beigong Changfeng’s face had long since turned ashen. How could he have imagined that Xiao Chen would be trapped beneath it, yet the other party would actually be able to touch his Wushuang City ancestral veins? What should he do this time? Why didn’t Mr. Ghost Mist count as having touched his ancestral bloodline back then?
“Brother Changfeng, quickly think of a way!”
At this moment, that Old man Zi Yi was also anxious. If he had known earlier, he wouldn’t have been involved in this muddy water. But now that he was already deep in mud, how could he escape? If something happened to the ancestral bloodline of Beigong Changfeng’s bloodline this time, then he would probably be severely punished by the clan. None of the people present today would be able to escape.
“Forget it …”
At this moment, Old man Qingyi was the first to calm down. He looked at Beigong Changfeng and said, “Changfeng, let that brat come up. You promised to swear a blood oath and never violate his Lustless Heaven again. The past grudges will be written off.”
“Blood oath …”
Beigong Changfeng was stunned and his heart ached. Once he swore a blood oath, Wu Yin’s vengeance would never be able to be avenged …
But right now, he couldn’t care less. He could only protect his ancestral veins. If he lost his ancestral veins, it wouldn’t be enough for him to die ten thousand times.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated and immediately sent a secret message to the illusion on the ninth floor of the Thunder Heaven Prison. “Xiao Yichen, hurry up and come up. I swear with you that I will never be your enemy, never touch a flower or tree of your Lustless Heaven, and never hurt anyone around you. If you break the oath, your soul will dissipate!”
