Chapter 285: Chapter 190: The Enemy Approaches (Overslept, making up for it now, first update)_1

“Void Spirit Monarch!”

Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.

This monarch was an Integration Great Power.

Although this world was a grand cultivation era, where not only Integration Great Powers existed but also Mahayana True Immortals and even some who dared not to Cross the Tribulation, or those unwilling to Ascend after doing so, it did not imply that Integration Cultivators were worthless.

The title of a great power was by no means in name only.

Those who crossed the Tribulation incurred the envy of the heavens, daring not to act rashly nor were they able to do so.

Mahayana beings, too, were limited by the Tribulations and could not easily make a move.

Only Integration was without any taboo, roaming the heavens and earth unbound.

Therefore, overtly and under normal circumstances, Integration Great Powers were already at the pinnacle of combat power in the Cultivation Realm, and the masters of the great Immortal Sects were nothing more.

The Void Spirit Monarch was not only an Integration Great Power but also the supreme leader of an Immortal Gate, who for some unknown reason, defected from the sect with a precious treasure thousands of years ago, sparking a great war that shook the Northern Domain.

Many forces from the Northern Domain, including Brahma Sect, Demon Path, Demon Race, and various Immortal Sects, were involved and affected, eventually even alarming a Mahayana True Immortal.

With a Mahayana joining the fray, the Void Spirit was defeated. Although he managed to escape with severe injuries, he ultimately succumbed to his wounds in the Barbaric Wastes, thus creating the Void Spirit Cave Heaven.

Therefore, as soon as True Monarch Tianshu discovered the Void Spirit Realm, he immediately set up a grand array, sealed off the news, and sent his disciples to explore inside.

A thousand years have passed since then, and not only has there been no result, but the news has also leaked out. The heroes of the Northern Domain heard the news and made their moves; within the realm, foes unknown stirred trouble, and True Monarch Tianshu along with the main combat power of the Big Dipper Immortal Sect were caught up in the Ten Thousand Star Sea, making the situation suddenly turn unfavorable.

The leak of the news was not sudden, but rather, the time had come.

In a hundred years, within the Void Spirit Realm, a great change was bound to occur.

The treasures of the Void Spirit Cave Heaven, Void Spirit’s Legacy, could not be concealed forever.

The heroes of the Northern Domain, and all forces, were already heading this way.

The Big Dipper Immortal Sect had no choice: either seize the opportunity ahead of others or withdraw completely.

In the end, the Big Dipper Immortal Sect chose the former.

After all, the treasures of the Void Spirit were too tempting; back then, the entire Northern Domain was in turmoil because of it, each power involved, but in the end, no conclusion was reached, allowing the Void Spirit Monarch to escape with heavy injuries, a matter of great regret.

Now with the opportunity before them, being an Immortal Sect’s sacred place, how could they pass up this chance?

Whether for the treasures of the Void Spirit or for the pride of the Immortal Sect, they had to make a move this time.

This was a unanimous decision between the Sect Master of the Big Dipper and the Seven Stars True Monarch.

However, due to the peculiar situation of the Void Spirit Realm, the decision at the top could only be executed by their middle-ranked personnel.

The responsibility was heavy.

But they had no choice.

“The Void Spirit Cave Heaven has changed; the spatial passage cannot be maintained indefinitely, we could only transmit the twenty-one of us first, the rest will arrive in subsequent batches.”

“Before then, we must ensure the Tianshu Great Array is secure!”

“As for that person, if he does not come, let him be; if he comes to attack, we will defend the Array to our deaths.”

“Meet the soldiers with soldiers and counter the flood with earth; we cannot underestimate the enemy, we cannot slack off!”

Dikui took the lead, instructing everyone, and formulating the strategy.

Yunji promptly spoke up, “Uncle, that person is powerful, has Spiritual Treasures at hand, and Divine Skills within. Although the Tianshu Great Array is a fourth-tier grand array, I fear it may not withstand his onslaught, especially the power of his Spiritual Treasure and Divine Skills. Uncle, have you brought the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper Flags this time?”

“Of course!”

Dikui’s expression remained unchanged as he spoke solemnly, “With the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper Flags and us seven, strengthening the might of the array, even if it does not reach the fifth tier, it is a definitive fourth tier. If that person does not know what’s good for him, he will come but never return!”

Yunji, hearing this, finally relaxed a little, “Then I’m relieved!”

The Seven Stars of the Big Dipper Flags were renowned throughout the world as the formal Spiritual Treasure of the Big Dipper Immortal Sect, generally of lower grade.

Even though they were of lower grade, as a set of Array Treasures, their might and value were comparable to Middle Grade Spiritual Treasures, even High Grade Spiritual Treasures, a culmination of the “Array of the Big Dipper Law” and “Star Refining Art” of the sect, only held by elders in the Divinity-Transformation Realm.

Although Dikui only had a Nascent Soul Cultivation now, he was once a Deity Transformation Venerable. Additionally, as a fourth-tier Array Master, the sect had made an exception by granting him a set of the Seven Stars of the Big Dipper Flags, allowing him to lead a team of Nascent Soul Realm Array Masters.

Indeed, an Array Master team, the six people with him were all third-tier Array Masters, each over a thousand years old; Dikui had even been reborn from body snatching, enjoying a lifespan of two thousand years.

Ginger gets spicier with age; similarly, an Array Master becomes stronger. As time accumulates and years add up, even if they could not break through their realms, their understanding and grasp of the Array principles become increasingly profound and sublime.

The seven people with Dikui were all Array Masters; one Grandmaster leading six Masters, together with seven pieces of the Big Dipper’s set Array Treasure Seven Stars of the Big Dipper Flags, once the Array was formed, even a Divinity-Transformation practitioner would have to give way and dare not clash.

“The sect sent me here; we must prevail by all means!”

Dikui looked calm and composed, “We, the seven of us, each holding a flag, operating the Seven Stars, are enough to stabilize this place’s Earth Yuan. Regardless of that person’s depth of knowledge in the Array Formation, as long as he holds no Array Spiritual Treasure in his hands, he would have no chance to break the Array with an Array.”

“The Array is without worry, inherently unbeatable!”

“What other methods does that person have left?”

“This…”

Under Dikui’s gaze, Yunji hesitated, but ultimately, he said, “Apart from Array Formation, he masters the Sword Dao and claims kingship with the Thunder Series. The Spiritual Treasure Divine Skills he developed during his Tribulation are not unrelated to these.”

“Sword Dao?”

“Thunder Series?”

“Not bad at all!”

Dikui laughed upon hearing this, “But our Big Dipper Immortal Sect has never been outdone. Meet the soldiers with soldiers, counter the flood with earth, it’s perfect to have a showdown with him.”

Yunji’s expression grew tense, “Uncle, you mean…”

Dikui did not reply, merely turning his gaze towards the woman known as “Yuyao.”

Yuyao smiled enchantingly, full of allure yet maintaining dignified grace, “This time, the sect has its orders, and our Master cares greatly, bestowing upon me twenty-one Cycle of Heaven Constellation Mirrors!”

“Cycle of Heaven Constellation Mirror!”

Yunji was shocked, looking at Yuyao, “Uncle Taihua even bestowed such a treasure?”

Yuyao smiled and calmly said, “Twenty-one Star Mirrors, arranged within the Array, drawing starlight, in conjunction with our sect’s Wonderful Skill, Cycle of Heaven Star Art, do you think they can compete with his Thunder Series Divine Skills?”

“This… certainly, they can.”

Yunji listened and, at a loss for words, could only respond with a wry smile, “It seems the sect is truly determined this time.”

The Star Dust Mirror was a Sacred Treasure of the Big Dipper Immortal Sect, bestowed by True Man Taihua’s lineage from the Tianshu branch.

This treasure is ranked as a middle-grade and, when assembled as a set, contains twenty-one Star Mirrors that can form the “Cycle of Heaven Starlight Array,” calling upon the starlight of the heavens to strike down enemies with power comparable to a single upper-grade spiritual treasure.

Sister Yuyao and the six behind her hail from True Man Taihua’s lineage, and True Man Taihua’s lineage is a well-known legal cultivation inheritance within the Big Dipper Immortal Sect, practicing one of the three great sacred texts of the sect, the “Cycle of Heaven Constellation Jue.”

Their full appearance, bringing treasures with them, clearly conveys the intentions of the Immortal Sect without words.

Cycle of Heaven Constellation, whether this treasure and technique can contend against that person’s Divine Skills?

Yunji really wanted to say it could, but recalling the might of the 99 Heaven Tribulations that day, he found the words difficult to utter.

Helpless, he could only give a bitter smile, turned his gaze, and looked towards the young man: “Uncle Dikui, Sister Yuyao, you have all brought treasures, so would disciple Chen Zhang not fall behind, right?”

“Hmph!”

Chen Zhang snorted coldly, pridefully remarking, “You ask even though you already know!”

Seeing this, Yunji did not mind and simply turned his gaze towards Yuyao.

“Hehe.”

Yuyao covered her mouth with a laugh, stepping forward to say, “Disciple Chen Zhang is the most outstanding disciple of Tianshu Sword Peak in nearly a thousand years. Although he lost half a move against the Brahma Sect in a sword fight previously, that Purity Temple heir is of Brahma Sect’s orthodox lineage, and has always been passed down individually, with each heir being a peerless and stunning talent.”

“Losing half a move to her is not a shame!”

Confronted with Yuyao’s sarcastic and barbed words, Yunji could only remain silent.

Rumors within the sect said that Yuyao and Chen Zhang once had an affair, almost becoming Taoist companions, but somehow they went their separate ways and even turned love into hatred. Apart from some important occasions, she would always have a few harsh words for Chen Zhang whenever she encountered him elsewhere.

For this, Yunji too was helpless, only allowing her to speak her mind.

Fortunately, Yuyao knew her limits, “Uncle Dongcang bestowed the Tianshu Sword, which shows his expectations. Disciple Chen Zhang, do not disappoint!”

“The Tianshu Sword!”

Yunji’s eyes sharpened as he inwardly marveled.

The Tianshu Sword, an upper-grade spiritual treasure, is a replica of the “Tianshu” Immortal Artifact of the Big Dipper Immortal Sect.

An Immortal Artifact is the potentiality of an Immortal Sect; it should not be deployed lightly. This Tianshu Sword is already the first treasure of the Tianshu Sword Peak in plain sight.

With Chen Zhang having this treasure in hand, his sword cultivator prowess would be even greater, facing that person…

Yunji’s heart skipped a beat, a nameless unease rising within him.

Uncle Dikui glanced at him, without leaving a trace, and no further words were needed: “Let’s settle on this then, and see if that person dares to come!”

“Hmm~!”

Within Green Jade Mountain, inside a cave mansion.

Xu Yang sat on the couch, with the Heavenly Eye opened on his forehead and the Mysterious Mirror in his hand, observing everyone inside, especially Dikui, who had the highest cultivation and the strongest power, and he couldn’t help but laugh.

“Is this the foundation of the Immortal Sect?”

“Indeed, there is no pure goodness in the world; the human heart is treacherous.”

“However, it’s also good. You set the stage for me to make my entrance.”

“Ha!”

With a laugh, the Heavenly Eye closed and the Mysterious Light faded.

Xu Yang stood up without saying much, mounted the Thunder Cloud, and headed toward Medicine King Valley.

The final battle was at a critical point, and he needed to withdraw while he had the momentum.

If he were to withdraw, there was no reason to leave the Medicine King Valley’s spirit vein behind for the enemy or to nurture others.

It was just the right time as the cultivation of the Earth Deity Law was also at a critical juncture. If the third-tier spirit vein of Medicine King Valley could be integrated into Fish and Dragon Island, it would be enough to elevate Fish and Dragon Island to an upper-grade Spirit Land, comparable to the Divine Demon World’s Blackwater River.

With such a Spirit Land, combined with the newly-added “Escaping One” feature, even if the Void Spirit Realm were to undergo great changes and various forces converged, he would be able to hunker down on Fish and Dragon Island with his Spirit Monsters, waiting for the storm to pass and turmoil to subside.

Therefore, there was nothing to fear, just be bold and do it—succeeding would be best, but failing would not impact the overall situation.

Besides…

“The Brahma Sect?”

“Purity Temple!”

“Is it coincidence, or…”

Above the Thunder Cloud, Xu Yang stood with his hands behind his back, his thoughts slightly divided.

In ten years, he had searched every hill and river of the Liang Kingdom Cultivation Realm, yet he still had not found the two of them or the other reincarnated beings.

Clearly, their reincarnation was not within this Void Spirit Realm, but in a broader world beyond the Void Spirit Realm.

Now, upon hearing the name of the Brahma Sect’s Purity Temple from the Tianshu Sect people, Xu Yang couldn’t help but recall the past.

How many years had it been since the Bodhi Tree’s reincarnation spell? Seventy years, it had been seventy years!

Back then, when the second life ended and he awoke from the dream, he was forty-six years old.

Now, after several dreamlike cycles and successful cultivation, he was over a hundred years old and ten more years had passed.

Adding up the years spent in dreams, it amounted exactly to seventy.

For cultivators who transcend the ordinary, seventy years are but the blink of an eye.

How was she doing?

The Brahma Sect?

Purity Temple?

Was it fate, or just a coincidence?

Xu Yang couldn’t say for sure.

But being a man of resolute character, he soon suppressed these tumultuous thoughts.

The current priority was still the Tianshu Sect.

He would resolve this issue first, and any other matters could be addressed later.
