Chapter 329 - Bloodline Soul Summon
When Liu Wuxie threw his punch, it transformed into a gigantic star that eclipsed the sun. It seemed as if the sky would shatter, unable to withstand the immense power of his strike.
A series of explosions occurred on the ground, and even the trees a hundred meters away weren’t spared.
Qian Zhou's attack, empowered by a spiritual treasure, was formidable enough to force even low-level Heavenly Dipper Realm cultivators to evade. Yet, his sword aura crumbled under the force of Liu Wuxie's punch.
“Time to end this!” Liu Wuxie remained expressionless, maintaining his composure.
The gigantic star descended on Qian Zhou, making it tough for him to breathe and causing discomfort throughout his body. He did his best to break free, but an invisible force locked his feet in place, rendering him immobile and leaving him to be crushed by the descending star.
“This is impossible! You’re only in the fifth level of the True Core Realm. How can you possibly unleash such power?!” Qian Zhou roared like a wild beast as the sword aura released by his spiritual treasure gradually faded.
Shortly after, a mighty tidal wave slowly engulfed him. The faces of the four Azure Crimson Gate disciples standing far away turned pale because their comprehension had been overturned.
“How can mere fireflies compare to the light of the bright moon?” Liu Wuxie sneered, and the Primordial Astral Fist descended.
It felt like heaven and earth were going to collapse with a powerful shockwave spreading out. The surroundings within a few hundred meters of radius were leveled to the ground.
The heart of the battlefield exploded like a scorching sun, blinding everyone with a powerful heatwave evaporating the lakewater in the surrounding craters, causing steam to rise into the air.
The longsword in Qian Zhou’s hand fell to the ground, and he was blown to smithereens by Liu Wuxie’s punch. He was killed before he could even let out a scream.
After killing Qian Zhou, Liu Wuxie descended from mid-air and stood in the ruins. When he picked up the longsword, it was filled with spirituality, and Liu Wuxie observed that a master had forged it. Regardless of the material used or the quality, it was top-notch.
“Brat, you’re dead! Do you know who Senior Brother Qian is? He’s the illegitimate son of the Azure Crimson Gate’s outer grand elder!” The Azure Crimson Gate’s disciples screamed as if their tails had been stepped on.
Liu Wuxie had killed Qian Zhou, but the four forgot to run for their lives because they couldn’t accept this outcome.
“All of you will also die!” Liu Wuxie swept out with the spiritual treasure longsword, decapitating the four Azure Crimson Gate’s disciples. After he was done, he kept the longsword in his interspatial pouch.
“Junior Brother, are you alright?” Bai Lin and Tang Tian ran over with concern.
“This place isn’t safe. We must leave quickly!” The earlier battle had caused a considerable commotion, and several auras were approaching from afar. Thus, they had to leave quickly to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Performing their movement techniques, the group of three ran for an hour before stopping after they left the perimeter of Azure Mountain Lake. for new novels
Bai Lin and Tang Tian panted heavily, still shocked.
“I didn’t expect Qian Zhou to be the illegitimate son of the Azure Crimson Gate’s outer grand elder. This is going to be troublesome.” Tang Tian frowned. The cultivation of this outer grand elder was at least in the Heavenly Phase Realm, which was frightening.
“What are you afraid of? Who will know if we don’t say a thing?” Bai Lin was somewhat optimistic. He believed no one would disclose the truth about Qian Zhou’s death.
Bai Lin and Tang Tian had only ordinary talents, and their limit was becoming an inner disciple. They were already satisfied that Liu Wuxie considered them brothers.
“It’s precisely because I consider you two brothers, which is why I’m saying this. The Snow Lotus Roots aren’t anything special; I have collected many of them. I’ll leave you two to protect me during my seclusion.” Regardless if they agreed, Liu Wuxie shoved the Snow Lotus Roots into their hands.
Bai Lin and Tang Tian couldn’t refuse Liu Wuxie and had no choice but to accept. After that, they went outside the cave to stand guard for Liu Wuxie.
They took several array flags and set them in the surroundings. After all, it would be troublesome if someone more powerful than them came.
After making all the preparations, Liu Wuxie took out the Snow Lotus Essence. It was only the size of a fist, emitting a gentle glow, releasing rich energy seeping into Liu Wuxie’s body through his pores.
“What a treasure!” Liu Wuxie thought to himself. The Snow Lotus Essence was a treasure that required a thousand years to grow.
Liu Wuxie tossed the Snow Lotus Essence into the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron, and demonic flames swiftly dissolved it. This refining speed was astonishing because an ordinary person would take ten days to half a month to refine it, but Liu Wuxie only took three breaths.
The pale green liquid flowed into the world in his dantian, and each drop weighed over five hundred kilograms.
The mysterious tree began to grow rapidly when the liquid was poured into the world in Liu Wuxie’s dantian. This was because the Snow Lotus Essence contained powerful wood-attribute energy. When absorbed into his dantian, it made the world greener.
Liu Wuxie had just made a breakthrough recently and was already going to make another breakthrough. The energies devoured from Qian Zhou were stored in the Sky Devouring Divine Cauldron for Liu Wuxie to make his breakthrough to the sixth level.
Intense pain came from Liu Wuxie’s meridians because they were being cleansed with true essence. The Desolate Devouring Art circulated by itself to devour the surrounding spiritual energy.
Bai Lin and Tang Tian raised their heads abruptly and could see spiritual energy forming into a cloud above them.
“Junior Brother Liu created such a terrifying phenomenon during his breakthrough?!”
The phenomenon Liu Wuxie had created back at Azure Mountain Lake was not as terrifying as this, and his breakthrough had been smooth.
“Junior Brother Liu’s talent is beyond our comprehension. We must stand guard for him and hope he gets promoted to an inner disciple in two months,” Bai Lin said quietly, careful not to disturb Liu Wuxie.
“The assessment to become an inner disciple is too difficult. Only the top ten outer disciples are eligible unless we reach the Heavenly Dipper Realm and advance to the inner sect automatically.” Tang Tian smiled bitterly. They had joined the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion two years ago, and their scores in the previous two assessments were poor, resulting in terrible placements.
If they still couldn’t advance into the inner sect, their chances of reaching the Heavenly Dipper Realm would decrease as they aged.
Liu Wuxie heard their conversation, as he wasn’t fully immersed in his cultivation. He kept a wisp of consciousness and was alert to monitor his surroundings. It wasn’t because he didn’t trust Bai Lin and Tang Tian, but caution was necessary no matter what.
Spiritual energy condensed into spiritual rain and fell into the cave. A vortex appeared above Liu Wuxie to devour the spiritual rain, and Liu Wuxie’s cultivation continued to rise. He had already reached the mid-phase of the sixth-level True Core Realm.
Liu Wuxie’s true essence began to rise rapidly, and the Heavenly Dao Book unfolded in Liu Wuxie’s soul sea to record the laws of the sixth level, and the content on it became even clearer.
It didn’t take long before all the spiritual energy within ten thousand meters of radius vanished. As Liu Wuxie continued to devour, all the spiritual energy within tens of thousands of meters gradually dried up.
This alarmed many people in the Scarlet Sun Mountain Range, who rushed over, believing that a treasure had emerged.
