Chapter 595 - 559_2
No time left!
"No!"
The East Pole Celestial Venerable, unwilling to accept the outcome, sat down and turned into a withered tree, turning into a corpse.
Lu Xuanji said, "Friend, you’re still one move short!"
This time, victory was rather lucky.
The East Pole Celestial Venerable’s plan was brilliant, using the second type of Primordial Spirit to continuously deplete his strength, then delivering a fatal blow. His scheme almost succeeded, but he lost to the Withering and Flourishing Curse.
Lu Xuanji stepped forward to look at the first person of the Chu Country and couldn’t help but say, "If I refined his corpse into the Qi of Creation and absorbed it myself, it would be a great supplement... Forget it, it’s unnecessary!"
Saying this, he activated the Pure Yang True Flame to begin burning the corpse of the East Pole Celestial Venerable.
Without the support of magical power, his corpse only lasted a moment before turning into ashes and dissipating.
Rumble, rumble!
At this very instant, Lu Xuanji’s mind was booming, as if the void was fracturing, and the surrounding destiny converged towards him like rivers flowing into the sea.
Destiny was constantly rising, third layer, fifth layer, finally rising to the seventh layer.
Chu Country had ten layers of destiny, and seven layers returned to him.
At this moment, his destiny was so strong it could be compared to the son of destiny.
As destiny surged in, Lu Xuanji’s black destiny began to bottom out and rebound, slowly recovering, turning white, turning orange, turning yellow, turning green, turning cyan.
After reaching cyan, the speed of the rise of destiny slowed considerably, but it was much more stable.
"My destiny is recovering!"
Lu Xuanji felt the vigorous destiny, his mind excited.
At this moment, he had an unprecedented understanding of the importance of destiny.
In the early stages of cultivation, one relied on talent and aptitude; but in the mid-stages, it was about comprehension and mental realm, and by the final moments, it was about luck.
Cultivators who could reach the Golden Core would not have poor aptitude, and at this moment of differentiation begins, those with strong comprehension and outstanding mental realm can continue to advance to become a Nascent Soul Cultivator. Those with poor mental realm and weak comprehension will mostly be eliminated, stopping at the Golden Core, or turning to ashes.
After reaching the Nascent Soul, those with strong destiny directly become Divinity Transformation; those with poor destiny stop at Nascent Soul, or even turn to ashes.
That is to say, a Divinity Transformation master and a Golden Core Cultivator, though seemingly worlds apart in cultivation, in fact, belong to the same level.
It’s just because of the differentiation by comprehension, mental realm, destiny, etc., that the gap was made, some become True Dragons, others reduced to the ants on the ground.
"East Pole friend, your luck was still a bit short!"
Lu Xuanji said with a bit of thought.
Sensing his left ring finger, where there was an erosion representing an attack of the ninth layer of Refining Void.
Even without the Withering and Flourishing Curse, it would still be the East Pole Celestial Venerable who died.
Since the moment the East Pole Celestial Venerable became his enemy, his fallen fate was sealed.
But in this way, it saved Qingyan... After all, this was an attack of a ninth-layer Refining Void powerhouse, directly used to kill a half-step Void Refining, a bit like using a sledgehammer to kill a fly.
Swipe!
At this moment, a force surged in, the Yin Yang Qi split apart, and Ning Xue appeared in the void.
Ning Xue hazily said, "Master, we won, we really killed the East Pole Celestial Venerable!"
Lu Xuanji smiled and said, "This is real, couldn’t be more real!"
Ning Xue still found it hard to believe, "Years ago, I was just a little Qi Refining junior, thinking that becoming a Purple Mansion Cultivator would be the pinnacle of life. As for the Golden Core, that was something my ancestors might have earned through great luck. But who would have thought that following the master, not only did I achieve the Golden Core but also became a Nascent Soul, and even a Divinity Transformation Cultivator! Now we’ve even killed the East Pole Celestial Venerable!"
"All of this is fake, I must be dreaming! I’m daydreaming right now!"
Slap, slap!
Lu Xuanji patted Ning Xue’s behind a few times, saying, "That should wake you from this dream, no?"
Ning Xue said, "Master, no longer dreaming now!"
Lu Xuanji said, "Little Xue, this is just the beginning. In the future, we will become even stronger. I will take you, Xi’Er, Qinglian, Wanyi, and others, and we will ascend as immortals, live eternally, become Carefree Immortals, and lead a free, happy, and beautiful life!"
Ning Xue dreamily said, "If this is a dream, I would rather stay asleep in this dream forever!"
Lu Xuanji said, "Let’s return to the Lu Family!"
Ning Xue said, "Master, the battle at the Lu Family is about to end. Celestial Spirit Sect is heading towards destruction, and in the future, Chu Country will be the Chu Country of our Lu Family!"
Lu Xuanji looked into the distance, yet saw the scene of the battle nearing its end, and couldn’t help saying, "The battle is about to end!"
...
Rumble, rumble!
A terrifying battle erupted at the Lu Family.
No one could have predicted why this battle broke out.
But on this day, the Celestial Spirit Sect descended here, and along with it, its affiliated Cultivation Immortality Clans also descended, surrounding the Lu Family and beginning to announce the Lu Family’s crimes.
"The Creation Celestial Venerable colluded with the Demon Race, colluded with the Demon Race’s Seven-tailed Spirit Fox Bai Ling’Er, repeatedly leaking secrets to the Demon Race, causing our frontline checkpoints to fall, resulting in the annihilation of hundreds of thousands of cultivators. The Creation Celestial Venerable is guilty, colluding with the demoness is guilty, leaking the Human Race’s secrets is guilty, the Celestial Venerable has struck, and is pursuing Lu Xuanji!"
"At the same time, we are ordered to take action, eradicate the Lu Family, kill all Lu Family cultivators, all Foundation Establishment and above must be killed, those below Foundation Establishment are allowed to leave!"
The Celestial Spirit Sect Leader arrived, beginning to announce the crimes.
Then with a sweep of his hand, countless flying ships appeared in the void, the Thunder Cannons on the ships activated, the runes on them flashing, the brilliant thunder radiating down, transforming into massive light columns for attack.
The Lu Family’s array began to operate, like waves surging, countless runes soaring, golden light flashing and changing, illuminating the boundless void.
Rumble, rumble!
Then, cannon after cannon flashed, Spirit Stones were consumed intensely, transforming into the Power of Annihilation, bombarding towards the Lu Family’s arrays.
The Lu Family’s array began to operate, beams of light soared one after another, about ten thousand arrays operating simultaneously to resist the bombardment of the Thunder Cannon. The Array True Qi circulated rapidly, but also consumed the Spiritual Qi from the Spirit Veins vigorously, forming a massive match, vaguely showing signs of being unsustainable.
Clang, clang, clang!
At this moment, bells tolled, ringing nine times in succession, indicating that the Lu Family was in a life-and-death crisis.
Many of the Lu Family’s closed-door cultivators awakened one by one, stepping out from their secluded cultivation places.
They emitted terrifying auras, beginning to face the enemies.
Some elders began persuading, speaking of misunderstandings.
The Celestial Spirit Sect Leader smiled and said, "Your only chance of survival is to open the arrays and accept forgiveness!"
An elder said, "Waiting for our Patriarch to return, he will surely explain to you, friend!"
The Celestial Spirit Sect Leader sneered and said, "Attack!"
The Thunder Cannon’s bombardment became even more fierce, the void resonating violently, silver thunder sweeping everything, annihilating the void.
Lu Family cultivators also activated the arrays, beginning to counterattack, annihilative ripples flashing, the Pure Yang Celestial Fire Array, Ice Annihilation Array, Elemental Magnetic Killing Array, Star Annihilation Array, Yin Yang Void Array and many others, each Annihilation Array began to operate, counterattacking.
Both sides opened fire, entering a fierce battle.
As for who was right or wrong, whether there was a misunderstanding or not, it was no longer important.
The Celestial Spirit Sect’s cultivators took action one after another, the Divinity Transformation, Nascent Soul, Golden Core, etc., all took action to strike down the enemy, carrying out the orders of the East Pole Ancestor without question, even if it was wrong.
Similarly, the Lu Family’s cultivators were united, together launching a counterattack.
Perhaps the Lu Family was innocent, wronged wrongfully.
Or maybe they really colluded with the Demon Race, but no matter what, they had to fight to the end in blood.
Only the choice to help reason and not relatives, was it even possible to stand on the enemy’s side for outsiders!
Impossible, and impractical!
Only fight to the end.
