Divine Brilliance - Chapter 482
Chapter 482: Vast Habitat Snowing
Returning into the courtyard, Zong Shou left the spiritual fruit, spiritual wine, etc. in the main hall. Then, he walked alone back towards his room.
There, he saw that this 400 feet space had already become a dual light and dark worlds.
On the dark side, there wasn’t even a single bit of light. On the side of the light, it was eye catchingly bright.
The 2 pearls which had, in a day, turned into the rough embryos of the white and black holes, couldn’t be looked directly at anymore. Even if he reached out with his spiritual sense, half of it was repelled. The other half was absorbed, unable to release them from their positions.
He could also clearly feel that between the two of them there was a spiritual bridge that was built up.
The extreme dark chill energy pearl could not only absorb spiritual energy like before and store in the depths of the pearl. As for the blazing glass pearl, it didn’t need to burn its source anymore.
The 2 sides formed a cycle, filled with unlimited energy, the cycle never-ending.
Looking at the sight in front of him, Zong Shou slightly hesitated.
The moment he stepped in, it was either he would become grade 7, using the power of external items to directly form the dharma. If not, his foundations would be destroyed, his soul ocean abandoned, and his life would even be in danger!
There was probably only a 30% chance of succeeding.
His brows furrowed. A moment later, Zong Shou laughed coldly. He suddenly moved forwards and sat down where the black and white intersected.
A few spells cast out, and Zong Shou said, “Retract”.
Instantly, this black and light spiritual light, which one couldn’t look at, directly covered over. It charged in through the center of his brows, merging into the depths of his soul.
Zong Shou’s face turned ashen white. He felt that his soul ocean was half cold and half hot, about to cause his soul to instantly collapse.
Without hesitation, Zong Shou reached out with his hand and a glass jade bottle appeared in his hands.
A few drops of jade white liquid flew out. It was the magnificent spirit jade marrow that Dragon Shadow helped him ask for from Lingyun Sect. These few drops of spiritual liquid also entered from the center of his brows.
Then his soul instantly relaxed. His thoughts, which were so close to stopping, became active once more.
The 2 soul ocean whirlpools which were on the brink of collapsing, started rotating once more.
The soul ocean built up once again. One side was scarily dark and the other was eye catchingly bright.
A long while later, after the situation in the soul had stabilized, Zong Shou heaved a sigh of relief. He knew that he had already completed this step.
However, he didn’t dare to relax. Charging to grade 7 and forming the dharma was just the start. The most dangerous part had still not passed.
※※※※
7 days later, within common people path vast habitat at the main hall of the palace.
Fangwen furrowed his brows as he looked forward.
There was a bright illusionary image that showed them the wide space fissure outside of the vast habitat. A huge number of cultivators were gathered here, closely packed together. On a rough count, there were 4,300 of them.
Pretty much all their cultivation was at least grade 6 and above. There were 400 grade 7 and above.
¼ of them were random cultivators whilst the rest were cultivators from the other sects of the cloud world.
“Jueyu is a headache!”
Fangwen felt his head hurt, throbbing in pain. Around him, the few palace elders brow’s furrowed, frowning in frustration.
“It isn’t much of an issue for them gathering here. I am afraid that some people have bad intentions and want to harm us. We need to think of a method to solve this…”
Fangwen looked at the person who spoke. It was a 20-year-old woman who was looking at the illusion in the center, a worried look on her face.
This was a spirit realm expert who was the elder of Taiyuan Sect. In recent years, due to him cultivating a technique that needed him to rebuild his foundations, the reason he returned to the cloud world to seek protection from his sect, his cultivation was too strong. He could only remain in the vast habitat and take up the role of the palace elder.
The cloud world had low spiritual energy, and even grade 8 cultivators weren’t able to spend too long outside.
If they couldn’t find a suitable cultivation area. It would harm their foundations.
This was why these shrines and spiritual houses as well as the many spirit mountains were so important and seen as the foundations of a sect.
Without a spiritual area to cultivate, not to mention improving, but even maintaining their current realm was difficult.
“Jueyu’s identity is unusual. We can’t forcefully chase him away…”
“Scoff! Even if he has a saint realm end realm expert behind him, why should our common people path need to fear anything?”
“When the spiritual wave rises, it will be where the war for the worlds are fought. The sects won’t stop fighting, and we will undoubtedly be dragged in. Unless we have no choice, we shouldn’t make strong enemies!”
“This is just a short term solution! Allow me to be direct! Ten thousand years of common people path, we did what we want, facing enemies on all 4 sides. When were we ever afraid of anyone?”
“This plan is not appropriate. However, forcefully chasing Jueyu away is the worse solution we have to consider.”
“In my opinion, we should still let Zong Shou fight with him!”
“However, senior master isn’t willing, so what can we do?”
Fangwen rubbed his temples and looked towards Hanfang. Since the Chuxue and Jueyu battle, he had been frowning. At this moment his face was dark and sunken, holding a golden message talisman he received not long ago. He was deep in thought.
Seemingly feeling Fangwen’s gaze, Hanfang came back to his senses, following which he gave out an awkward smile, “It is from senior masters Xuanjing and Xuanxuan who are discussing Chuxue.”
The entire main hall was silent. Everyone obediently looked down and listened.
Lin Xuanjing, Lin Xuanxuan.
One was the Taiyuan Sect ancestor, the other the Seven Spirit Sect ancestor. In the past, they were soulmates of Xi Zi, and at the moment, the only 2 first-generation ancestor level people.
Hanfang looked coldly at this group of palace elders. He knew who, out of all of them, leaked the news. He said, “They said that within this year, they would return to the cloud world to look and test the junior generation. The two senior masters rarely return, so we must receive them well and not disappoint them. This is also a great opportunity for the disciples that newly entered our sect…”
Fangwen hesitated. One Jueyu was giving him enough of a headache. Before he solved it, why did these 2 senior masters pop up?
He wished that he could just give up his position as palace head. Even if it was to that unreliable Shui Lingbo, it was fine.
Just as he was thinking about that, he was suddenly shocked as he looked outside of the hall. He suddenly stood up and took big steps out.
“It is snowing!”
Looking up at the sky, he saw a rumbling dark cloud that gathered. Snowflakes were slowly floating downwards.
Hanfang and the others also walked out of the main hall. They looked at the sky with a shocked expression.
“What is happening?”
“Why is there be snow within the vast habitat? Did someone cast a spell?”
The few elders exchanged glances with one another, and their faces looked weird.
Within this vast habitat, it replicated the sun and the moon, the change of night and day. However, it wasn’t the real world, and all 4 seasons were like summer. There were no seasonal changes and thus it definitely would not snow.
What was happening? This was pretty much unbelievable…
“It is not only snowing. Do all of you feel the changes in heaven and earth’s spiritual energy?”
“Oh! They all stopped…”
Pretty much all the spiritual energy stopped flowing, seeming stale with no signs of life. Like it was locked down by a certain power.
Hanfang’s expression sunk. He had never seen such a situation before. He swept about with his spiritual sense but he couldn’t find out where the source was.
In the end, he could only look in the direction of 1st Courtyard A. Did this weather change have to do with that fellow.
Then, he laughed involuntarily. How was that possible? Stopping 100 thousand feet of spiritual energy. Even he, himself, only barely had such ability.
Rather than say it was done by people, it might be man-made. It shouldn’t be only restricted to the common people’s vast habitat.
He also found it weird and thought, which person…what thing caused such a huge commotion?
Was it the birth of the legendary god-emperor who would command tens of millions of worlds? But didn’t that need to wait till tens of years later?
“Why is it snowing?”
“This is the first time I have seen something like this…”
At the same time, the disciples of the common people path who were in the lecture halls all surged out of the halls.
Those ten over lecturers didn’t stop them, walking out to take a look.
Yuanfei also walked out of the lecture hall. He had a really tense expression on his face. He seemed a little suspicious like he was afraid of people noticing him.
Since his battle against Jueyu, the arrogance in his eyes had disappeared greatly.
To be weaker than Jueyu was something he could console himself about. Jueyu was simply too strong, sweeping numerous sects in the cloud world. The sword prince who had nearly invincible sword techniques used his grade 8 strength, going all out, not caring about anything. Naturally, he would fully suppress him!
However, even Xuechu was much better than him. With her initial grade 7 strength, she wasn’t at a disadvantage at all. That was something that he couldn’t accept.
He thought that he was a child of good fortune. However, this was the first time he knew that there were numerous people stronger than him.
Entering the peak of grade 7 at 20 years old was nothing to be proud of. Compared to these people, he was nothing. His master always told him to be humble and stop bragging, but he was always unable to do so and never cared much about it.
It wasn’t until that day, did he come to his senses. If he continued like that, he would cause huge trouble. Even if he was lucky and no one targeted him due to his arrogance, some situations would occur. Either he hurt his foundations, or he would die from his carelessness.
Following the group of people to walk out, Yuanfei took a look upwards and then he was at a loss.
It was snowing…
