Chapter 307: Chapter 276: Divinity Transformation Confrontation_1
Boom!
A white rainbow slashed across the void, causing a deafening blast of white sound that swept out in all directions in the next instant.
“Ah!”
Those on the ground who were caught in the blast let out horrific screams as their minds went blank and fresh blood flowed from their orifices.
In an instant, countless innocent people lost their lives.
The white rainbow skipped across the sky, heading straight for the large energy hand condensed by the Divinity Transformation elder ancestor.
“Who dares?!”
A Nascent Soul cultivator flew up, blocking the way and unleashing a defensive artifact in an attempt to stop the white rainbow.
Bang!
The tier ten defensive artifact was shattered instantly, and the momentum of the white rainbow did not lessen as it crashed into the Nascent Soul cultivator. A loud noise echoed, leaving behind only a headless corpse.
After killing a Nascent Soul elder ancestor, the speed of the white rainbow was not reduced in the least as it continued to crash towards the energy hand.
No one else could stop it in time, nor did they dare to. They could only watch the two collide, and everyone’s heart was lifted.
Boom!
Like a spark hitting the earth, fear swept out in all directions. All Nascent Soul cultivators were swept off their feet, and the buildings on the ground were wiped clean.
The originally bustling Imperial Capital was suddenly replaced by a wasteland, looking like a patch of ringworm.
“Who are you? How dare you meddle with the affairs of the Da Yuan Royal Family!”
The voice of an elderly man roared from the palace.
As the smoke and dust cleared, a young man in a black robe was seen floating in the void.
“Hehe!”
The young man grinned in response to the Divinity Transformation elder ancestor’s inquiry, offering no words.
After this delay, Prince Jade on the ground had already recovered, transforming into a beam of light and soaring into the sky, standing side by side with the young man.
“Fellow Daoist, you indeed possess immense strength!” Prince Jade spoke up.
He didn’t seem surprised by the emergence of the young man.
“Fellow Daoist, you flatter me! Let’s go!” said the young man dismissively.
“Where do you think you’re going!”
The Divinity Transformation elder ancestor roared in fury, and another huge hand appeared, crashing down onto the two like the sky was falling.
“Fellow Daoist, why bother! Do you really think you can keep me here with just an avatar?”
The young man in the black robe chuckled and waved his fist at the sky, causing violent winds and a terrifyingly pure demonic Qi to rise into the sky, instantly shattering the giant hand.
“What exactly are you?”
The elder ancestor from the royal family, who seemed to be under some kind of restriction, continued to attack from afar and never revealed himself.
“I am Tongyou from Southern Domain! Fellow Daoist, if you wish to take revenge, feel free to find me! Hahaha!”
The young man laughed heartily, transforming into a beam of light and flying off into the distance.
“Old codger, as soon as I make the Divinity Transformation, it will be your day of death! As for you royal dogs!”
Prince Jade left behind a cold threat and also turned into a beam of light, following the young man’s departure.
The speed of the two was extremely fast. They disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye, and the great array of the imperial capital could not stop them in the slightest.
Just as the others were about to get up and chase after them, they were stopped by the Divinity Transformation elder ancestor.
“No need to chase! You are not his match!”
After he spoke, the sky returned to its normal state, with everything quieting down. Only the debris and corpses strewn about told the tale of the fierce battle that had just taken place.
People began to clean up the aftermath, and soon someone discovered something unusual within the Imperial Prison.
“The God Refining Tripod is gone!!!”
…
Xu Mu cautiously stepped out of the ruins of the heavenly prison, shocked that he had actually managed to bluff his way through.
After the disappearance of the God Refining Tripod, all surviving people were subjected to intensive interrogation, but they had either been sealed inside the space of the tripod or were unconscious, not knowing what had happened.
They didn’t even know when they were thrown out.
In the end, the Palm Immortal Office could not deduce anything and after checking their storage bags, they let them go.
Xu Mu had been terrified, but they didn’t discover the anomaly of the bronze halberd. When they checked his body, he manipulated the spatial power of the God Refining Tripod and fooled them.
Of course, the reason he was able to get through so easily was also because they weren’t very thorough.
Everyone instinctively felt that the God Refining Tripod had been taken away by “Prince Jade” and didn’t think to investigate them, merely conducting a routine check.
They were merely at the Golden Core Stage and even if they wanted to take it, they wouldn’t have the ability to do so. The fact that they had survived was already a stroke of luck.
“I’m so glad that you two are safe!”
Li Youlan personally came over in a carriage to meet the two of them. Seeing them unharmed, she smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.
After learning the whole situation of this mission, she felt even more relieved.
“Your Highness, do you know who Prince Jade’s father is?” Xu Mu asked curiously about the series of unexpected events in the heavenly prison.
“He would be considered my Seventh Imperial Uncle. Back then, he competed with my father for the throne. He was extremely talented, especially with his proficiency in puppet skills, claimed to be invincible at his level. However, due to researching evil practices, creating human puppets, and practicing demonic skills, he was imprisoned deep within the heavenly prison by our ancestor! Prince Jade is his son, who was still young at the time and therefore did not get implicated. It’s just that I never thought… sigh!”
Speaking of this, a worried expression crossed Li Youlan’s face.
The disaster this time not only caused the imperial family to lose several Nascent Souls, but it also destroyed the heavenly prison, and the Palm Immortal Office was ruined with countless normal cultivators being killed.
But what was most headache-inducing was her runaway Seventh Imperial Uncle.
He was extremely talented, and if he truly achieved Divinity Transformation Stage, the Da Yuan Dynasty would be in danger of extinction.
“It is said that another cultivator at the Divinity Transformation Stage has stepped in and saved him. Your Highness, do you know who it is?” Xu Mu asked with a glint in his eyes.
“The person claimed to be from the Southern Domain’s Tongyou! Unexpectedly, he already possesses the strength of the Divinity Transformation Stage! According to my master, he might have achieved the Body Refinement of Divinity Transformation! Then again, he could also have falsely reported his name, but among those in the world who can reach the Divinity Transformation Stage as a devil cultivator, I think it can only be him!” Li Youlan replied.
Bullshit body refinement of Divinity Transformation, it’s just borrowing someone else’s body! Xu Mu thought smugly.
When the opponent revealed his demonic Qi, he had a vague sense of familiarity, and after he reported his name, Xu Mu was almost certain.
With Li Youlan’s confirmation now, he was absolutely certain.
It was undoubtedly the Old Ancestor of Tongyou!
The opponent had taken over the celestial puppet and could easily unleash the power of Divinity Transformation Stage. His powers would only be stronger if he had actually reached that stage.
Hearing from Li Youlan, her Seventh Imperial Uncle was skilled in puppet art, so the Old Ancestor of Tongyou might want to use him to repair his puppet body.
It seemed that over the years, the Old Ancestor of Tongyou hadn’t been idle, otherwise he wouldn’t have traveled halfway across the land to this place.
Or perhaps, what happened in the imperial capital was just one of the many things he had been doing in these years.
Luckily, he didn’t find me, otherwise who knows what would happen!
Xu Mu felt a lingering fear.
After discussing the matters at hand, Xu Mu then revealed his intention to go into seclusion.
“You really want to go into seclusion? Why not wait a bit longer, I could help you find some other auxiliary pills!” Li Youlan said with concern.
She originally planned to use the Sin Refining Pill to help Xu Mu break through, but without it, there was a certain risk of failure.
If he failed, it wouldn’t just be his life at risk, he wouldn’t be able to participate in the upcoming magic fight either.
“Your Highness, don’t worry! Actually, I’ve already made many preparations before coming here. It would naturally be better if there were Sin Refining Pills, but it’s fine even if there aren’t,” Xu Mu assured with a smile.
He had hundreds of Sin Refining Pills, which could easily help him break through to the late stage of Golden Core. He wouldn’t even mind giving a few to her, given that she doesn’t grow suspicious.
“Since you’ve made up your mind, then I won’t stop you. But be careful in everything you do! I’ll be waiting outside for the good news!”
