Chapter 3213: Chapter 3990: Messengers from the Upper Realm
Last time, he used the shadowy avatar but failed to kill Ye Chen, an enduring regret for Xuanyuan Moxie. This time, he has mastered the Heaven Punishment Divine Sword Technique, can communicate with the energy of the Chong Guang Divine Radiance Palace, and his subordinate, the Yan Tian Dragon God, has fully transformed. As long as he knows where Ye Chen is, he will definitely be able to kill him.
"Ye Chen is a predestined person, I will not tell you. You better let go of this idea."
Tianji Daoist’s gaze was indifferent. The reason he so diligently protected Ye Chen, besides Ye Chen refining the Chaos Star Tree and thus becoming his martial uncle, was because Ye Chen had great Qi Fortune and was key to saving the Divine Kingdom in the future.
For the billions of lives in the Divine Kingdom, he absolutely could not expose anything about Ye Chen.
Xuanyuan Moxie burst with anger, eyes nearly popping out, saying, "You think if you don’t tell me, I can’t find out myself? Chong Guang Shadow Viewing Technique, reveal it to me!"
A trickle of divine light flowed from Xuanyuan Moxie’s palm, forming into an ancient scroll of radiant colors. On the scroll, numerous images kept flashing by, various heavenly mechanisms and the Nine Palace Eight Trigrams continuously emerging.
The Chong Guang Shadow Viewing Technique is a divination technique that emerged from the Chong Guang Divine Radiance Palace. It is much more powerful than any spells Xuanyuan Moxie had previously mastered.
However, using this divination technique requires bearing the unimaginable Hongmeng Pressure.
This pressure, stemming from the Chong Guang Divine Radiance Palace, imposed a massive burden on the body.
Previously, Xuanyuan Moxie had used it only once to calculate the burial place of Emperor Gouchen. Now, to find Ye Chen’s whereabouts, he was using it a second time.
Suddenly, waves of immense Hongmeng Pressure made Xuanyuan Moxie’s face look grave.
He stabilized his mind, withstanding the impact of the pressure, and focused on the scroll’s images, searching for Ye Chen’s trace.
But the images on the scroll kept flashing by, yet there was no sign of Ye Chen.
It seemed Ye Chen’s heavenly mechanism destiny had completely vanished; no method could uncover it.
"Xuan Tianji, you’ve tampered with it!"
Xuanyuan Moxie’s eyes widened in fury as he glared at Tianji Daoist.
He couldn’t discover Ye Chen’s whereabouts despite his celestial calculations, clearly indicating that the karmic visions around Ye Chen had been concealed by someone.
And within the Divine Kingdom, only Tianji Daoist possessed such a powerful means of concealment.
"Do you really defy me?"
The Yan Tian Dragon God was also enraged, unsheathing his blade and holding it against Tianji Daoist’s neck.
Buzz!
His blade, with a white tiger engraved at the hilt, was thin as a cicada’s wings and so polished you could see your reflection in it, emanating murderous intent, with many ancient tiger-shaped totems engraved upon it. It was actually one of the Four Symbols Secret Treasures, the White Tiger Soul-cutting Saber!
"Hehe, originally when you robbed Emperor Gouchen’s tomb, you obtained the White Tiger Soul-cutting Saber, did you? Yan Tian, no wonder you’ve advanced so much."
Tianji Daoist’s expression remained unchanged as he looked at the White Tiger Soul-cutting Saber, understanding many things.
It turned out the reason the Yan Tian Dragon God could advance so rapidly into the Heavenly God Realm Eighth Layer was, aside from merging with Emperor Gouchen’s remains, he had refined the White Tiger Soul-cutting Saber.
This saber, one of the Four Symbols Secret Treasures and also a Thirty-Three Heavens Hongmeng Treasure, was as famous as the Azure Dragon Soul Stabilizing Mirror, Vermilion Bird Flying Cloud Hairpin, and Xuanwu Sky-opening Axe; its killing aura exceedingly fierce.
If the white tiger were still alive and fused with this saber, taking souls and blade as one, it would surely dominate the world.
Unfortunately, the Heavenly Dao Palace did not have such good fortune. The white tiger was long killed by Ye Chen and finally devoured by Little Gold. The Heavenly Dao Palace, possessing this saber, could only bestow it upon the Yan Tian Dragon God.
Though the Yan Tian Dragon God couldn’t achieve the realm of soul-blade unity, his dragon pride and tiger arrogance, with murderous aura soaring to the skies, created a sharp, vibrant aura.
"Elder Tian, tell me where Ye Chen is, don’t force me to act."
The Yan Tian Dragon God pressed the blade, and at once, a blood mark appeared on Tianji Daoist’s neck.
Xuanyuan Moxie watched the Yan Tian Dragon God’s actions without a word, coldly observing.
"Xuanyuan Moxie, you wish to kill me?"
Tianji Daoist said in a deep voice.
"I’ll ask you once more, are you willing to tell the truth?"
Xuanyuan Moxie’s voice was extremely cold.
"No comment."
Tianji Daoist’s gaze shifted elsewhere.
"Very well, very well."
Xuanyuan Moxie’s heart was raging with anger, but his face appeared calm and settled, shouting, "Yan Tian, do it! In ancient times, I defied heaven to slaughter my master, intending to kill Chong Guang Emperor to prove the Dao. Today, I will again slay my master to prove the Dao! Xuan Tianji, this path is your choice, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"
"Yes!"
The Yan Tian Dragon God replied in acknowledgment, gripped the White Tiger Saber tightly, and was about to slash off Tianji Daoist’s head.
Tianji Daoist snorted, face resolute, closing his eyes to face death.
"Report!"
At that moment, a Heavenly Dao Palace disciple rushed in.
"What’s the matter?"
Xuanyuan Moxie asked in a deep voice.
The Yan Tian Dragon God also paused his action, with the blade edge tightly against Tianji Daoist’s neck.
"The Upper Realm Venerate Clan has sent someone, waiting outside."
The disciple reported.
"Someone from the Upper Realm?"
Xuanyuan Moxie frowned, saying, "Let her in."
"Yes."
The disciple turned and left, shortly bringing in a woman in black, bearing a great sword, into the hall.
"Xuanyuan Palace Master, I trust you have been well since we last met."
The Black-clothed Sword Woman gave a brief salute, glanced at the tense scene in the hall, and said with a smile, "Such heavy killing intent, is Xuanyuan Palace Master intending to slay his master to prove the Dao?"
"Haha, just some trivial affairs within our sect, I apologize for amusing Lady Xuanfei."
Xuanyuan Moxie chuckled. The Black-clothed Sword Woman was Xuanfei, an attendant beside the Upper Realm Empress.
"Xuanyuan Palace Master slaughtering his master to prove the Dao, this is a grand defiance of heaven. If he succeeds, and breaks through the division of realms to ascend, I fear even my Empress’s position will be at risk for you."
Xuanfei raised her eyebrows in a crescent shape, a half-smile playing across her face.
Tianji Daoist was renowned, and she naturally recognized him, aware that the former was Xuanyuan Moxie’s master. Now, the hall brimming with killing intent clearly indicated Xuanyuan Moxie’s intent to slay his master.
Once he successfully proved his Dao, ascended to the Upper Realm, even Xuan Jiyue might lose sleep.
"I dare not; the Empress Supreme reigns over all, governing the Ten Thousand Realms, her light shining throughout the ages. How dare I defy her? If I am fortunate enough to ascend one day, I hope the Empress Supreme will guide and assist me."
Xuanyuan Moxie smiled slightly, yet his demeanor was entirely respectful and compliant.
"Haha, Xuanyuan Palace Master is much too humble. With the Chong Guang Divine Radiance Palace in your hand, nurtured by the Star Emperor’s Vast Energy, your Qi Fortune is boundless, your divine power unrivaled. Should you ascend to the Upper Realm, I fear your might may overshadow my Empress Heavenly Palace," Xuanfei laughed.
"Not at all, with my limited cultivation, how can I rival the Empress Supreme? May I know the reason Lady Xuanfei visits us today?" Xuanyuan Moxie changed the subject.
"Haha, does Xuanyuan Palace Master still remember your agreement with Elder Han of the Emperor Abyss Palace?" Xuanfei straightened her expression and asked.
"Elder Han? Of course, I remember. He entrusted me with investigating various karmic matters of the Divine Kingdom, which I have thoroughly investigated, yet Elder Han is nowhere to be seen. Is this the reason for Lady Xuanfei’s visit?"
