A Sect from a Spirit Vein

Chapter 488: Chapter 437: Merciful Propagation of Miao Fa Celestial Monarch (Part 2)

Even the entire Mizar Continent once collapsed, with most of it sinking into the Star Sea, and some fragments becoming today’s Immortal Fall Islands in the Star Sea.

The outcome of the great battle seemed to be the defeat of the Ten Celestial Monarchs, as all of their Immortal Temples were ordered to be destroyed, forbidding people from worshiping them. However, at the same time, immortals went into hiding and ceased appearing in the Cultivation Realm. For tens of thousands of years after, those who successfully ascended to the Immortal Realm were also never seen again.

Never would one have thought that there would still be a shrine to the Seventh Celestial Monarch here, whether it was secretly built by future generations or a remnant from that battle.

But no matter what, the eerie changes happening before us are completely different from the legendary image of the True Immortal Divine, merciful, propagating the Dao and teaching, saving the world and helping the people—the Seventh Celestial Monarch!

At the moment when Master Cangfeng, Ye Xiao, and Lu Qian’s gazes fell upon the statue, the eyes of the Celestial Monarch, which should have been just a statue, suddenly moved!

”Offer your flesh, and ascend to bliss.”

”Sacrifice your Divine Soul and journey to the Immortal Court.”

This is the voice of the Celestial Monarch!

In the next instant, the originally delicate and handsome cheeks of the Celestial Monarch slightly twitched, and the skin gently flipped over, with two more eyes growing respectively on both sides!

Three pairs of eyes rolled around, and their gazes diverged, each fixing on Master Cangfeng, Ye Xiao, and Lu Qian.

The corners of the Celestial Monarch’s mouth slowly curled up.

”I see you.”

At this moment, overwhelming fear enveloped the three!

Lu Qian felt his whole body hair stand on end, the deepest, most terrifying, darkest despair gripped his soul!

The three stood there dumbfounded, their breathing seemingly frozen and unable to move.

The Celestial Monarch slowly turned his head, with the three pairs of eyes spinning rapidly, slowly sweeping over the three.

His arm slowly lifted.

Frantic shouts resonated in the ears of the three, as if countless people were worshipping zealously, knocking their heads hard, with the voices of men and women, young and old, blended together, and the harsh sounds of trumpets, suonas, and cymbals eerily playing, forming a mind-shaking, soul-bewitching magic sound.

”Offer your flesh, and ascend to bliss!”

”Sacrifice your Divine Soul and journey to the Immortal Court!”

”Offer your flesh, and ascend to bliss!”

”Sacrifice your Divine Soul and journey to the Immortal Court!”

...

In an instant, Lu Qian only felt his Niwan Palace abruptly shake, his Divine Soul irresistibly drawn, as if a traveler parched to the extreme suddenly discovered a pool of clear springwater ahead.

Every part of his body wanted to respond loudly, answering this summons. Just by responding, he could attain bliss, and ascend to the Immortal Court.

Lu Qian bit hard on his tongue, using all his strength to suppress his already completely agitated Divine Sense; at this moment, the state of the Mirror Lake was completely disrupted.

His lips trembled uncontrollably, his throat started to engender a syllable.

The other two Golden Cores also flushed red, trembling all over, desperately resisting this summon, but their defenses had been broken down layer by layer.

But someone reacted faster than them, none other than the originally unconscious Yan Beixing!

At some point, he had woken up, a flicker of struggle crossing his face, finally transforming into a relieved, ecstatic smile.

He grabbed his own throat, tearing it fiercely!

The just-closed wound was abruptly torn open, blood splashed into the air, turning into a pervasive blood mist.

His eyes were full of the light of madness, and from his throat came a final whimper: ”...Bliss.”

His entire body’s blood was drawn to the altar, the eerie red light growing even more dazzling. This disciple of the Mingyu Sword Sect’s Sect Leader died on the spot.

Master Cangfeng, fiercely resisting the magic sound, let out a roar, the intense anger in this moment breaking through the magic sound’s shackles, his Spiritual Power raging like boiling water, his spiritual pressure fiercely exposed.

A beam of light slowly rose from his body!

With an explosive clamor, the rocks began to continuously disintegrate in mid-air, turning to powder, with the three as the center, countless hairline cracks appeared on the rock walls of the entire cave.

The mountain began to collapse, this sword force was overwhelmingly fierce!

Divine Power: Tiger and Rhinoceros Cage!

Master Cangfeng, having attained Clear Sword Heart, reaching the realm of Free Will, unlike ordinary Sword Cultivators blatantly exposuring edge and intent to kill.

Originally calm and lively by nature, after Cultivating in the Sword Dao, he slowly walked a path of his own.

The sword is certainly important, but the scabbard is important too.

Since my nature is like this, I should just go with the flow, using gentleness and kindness as the scabbard to sheathe this sword that can sever rivers and seas.

In ordinary times, show the scabbard; if truly unavoidable, then the sword must be drawn.

This is a fierce weapon sheathed in the scabbard, buried deep, continuously accumulating energy at every moment.

Now, activating the divine technique, the sword is drawn!

The ferocious beast of Tiger and Rhinoceros, long locked away, is released from its cage today, naturally fierce and furious, ready to devour everything before it!

The dazzling sword light, with an unstoppable momentum, slashes toward the Celestial Monarch Statue, its bright piercing light engulfing the statue, drowning the entire cave. At this moment, the hypnotic music of enchantment fades away.

Without a second glance after his sword strike, Master Cangfeng grabbed Lu Qian and transformed into a streak of escape light, sprinting outward.

”Hurry!”

Five-colored light emerged around Lu Qian, protecting the two of them within. The Geng Metal Divine Sword, Bing Fire Divine Crow, and Gui Water Divine Thunder also shot toward the position of the statue.

Finally breaking free of enchantment, Ye Xiao pushed off with her legs. With a booming sound, the ground shattered, and the entire cave suddenly collapsed.

Using the recoil, she closely followed behind Master Cangfeng. In the blink of an eye, the three had burst out of the cave, darting into the vast black and brown plains of Tieyuan County.

Behind them, the hills emitted a deafening sound of collapse, the entire mountain disintegrating and crumbling. Billions of pounds of rock and earth fell with a roar, burying the eerie altar and dreadful statue within.

But before the three could even catch a breath, they heard a faint sigh echo beside their ears.

Master Cangfeng and Lu Qian glanced sharply to the side, breaking out in a cold sweat. They saw that the Celestial Monarch Statue was tightly attached to Ye Xiao’s back as she ran forward!

It was completely unharmed, and Ye Xiao, wielding the power of the Golden Core, was completely unaware, having carried it out on her back all the way!

Ye Xiao also heard the sigh, abruptly turning her head, meeting the gaze of the Celestial Monarch’s six swirling eyes.

In that instant, her body tensed, blood turned cold as ice. Startled, Ye Xiao spun around, the Golden Core in her Dantian radiating light, her hand grasping her prized magical treasure, ready to strike with great force.

However, a faint green flash appeared in the Celestial Monarch’s eyes.

Ye Xiao stood frozen, her arms dropping powerlessly.

Seeing that her mightiest divine sword technique was as ineffectual as a breeze brushing past this bizarre Celestial Monarch Statue, Master Cangfeng fell into deep helplessness and despair.

As the Celestial Monarch looked toward the two, the ear-piercing hypnotic music began anew.

”Offer your flesh and blood, join in eternal bliss!”

”Sacrifice your divine soul, journey to the Immortal Court together!”

...

With the rise of the hypnotic music, soul-stirring and spirit-seizing, Master Cangfeng’s escape light dispersed, unable to advance. Lu Qian gritted his teeth, but as the array realm just began to rise, his own divine sense got drawn and collapsed, rendering him incapable of executing any array transformations.

Master Cangfeng and Lu Qian stood together on the barren plain; even with their feet deeply buried in the ground, they couldn’t resist the urgent desire from the depths of their souls to rush forward.

Blood trickled from the corners of their mouths, as they watched helplessly as the Celestial Monarch slowly and leisurely, with a sway in each step, walked toward them.

Every possible move went through Lu Qian’s mind, but as the hypnotic music grew louder, their resistance weakened, and everything seemed a futile dream.

Give up, give up...

Exhausted weariness arose from the heart. For his divine sense, surpassing Foundation Establishment Perfection, to hold on until now was already drained beyond measure, unable to continue. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ

Every part of his being longed to relinquish resistance and fall into boundless beauty.

The Celestial Monarch had already reached the two, his six eyes scanning between them, slowly extending an arm to touch Master Cangfeng’s cheek.

Today, we face our demise!

Just as the last thread of sanity in Master Cangfeng and Lu Qian snapped, suddenly from the sky, thunder exploded!

Rumble!

Silver serpents danced wildly, thunder dragons soared, all evil retreated, demonic miasma cleared!

The hypnotic music of soul seizure suddenly paused, Master Cangfeng and Lu Qian collapsed to the ground, gasping, drenched in sweat from head to toe.

The Celestial Monarch Statue lifted its head, its six eyes gazing toward the clouds. Layers upon layers of purple cloud were gathering, forming a massive vortex covering half the sky, spinning above his head.

For the first time, fear and panic appeared on his face. He opened his pitch-black mouth wide, emitting a sharp sound, beyond anything a human could produce.

”Nine Heavens Thunder Killing Celestial Monarch!”
