Chapter 320: Chapter 265: The Cost of Being Awake
Even before Wang Sheng and the two Spirit Kings had entered the place, the White Lotus Spirit King had already been preparing, sothing Wang Sheng had discerned through his Divine Thought.
The words of the White Lotus Spirit King were rely to stall the three of them.
Of course, the Divine Sparrow King and the Golden Monkey King were no pushovers. After confirming the condition of the White Lotus, they, too, had promptly prepared for battle, ready to strike at any mont, as the Qi-Blood within them began to surge, seemingly gathering strength for their strongest attack.
The reason Wang Sheng had not made a move was mainly because the White Lotus’s words were laden with information, and he wanted to know more. However, the Golden Monkey King interrupted him.
It was sowhat regrettable!
Nevertheless, since the White Lotus Spirit King was ready, Wang Sheng naturally wouldn’t just stand by.
...
“God-slaying Sword!”
He wasn’t clear about the exact tactics the White Lotus Spirit King might have hidden, but since she had cultivated the “Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter,” it was highly probable that she had switched to the path of Spiritual Cultivation.
The God-slaying Sword, used against her, was undoubtedly going to be effective.
“What can a single sword do? Since you’ve co here, all of you shall remain!”
The White Lotus Spirit King didn’t hesitate, as a strong spiritual power erupted from her body. Imdiately afterward, a white lotus shooting up into the sky appeared before Wang Sheng.
This white lotus seed to sway through the Chaos, illusory yet real, fake and yet true. Upon appearing, it directly blocked the flying sword, rendering its attack ineffective.
Not only that, Wang Sheng could clearly see that the white lotus seed to be engulfing sothing, as countless powers continuously rged into the lotus.
“This power…” Wang Sheng felt this power was sowhat miraculous.
Just as he was about to investigate further with his own Divine Thought, the White Lotus casually rippled, sending forth an invisible wave of spiritual power. The aura was terrifying and could easily flatten mountains.
At this mont, the Divine Sparrow King and Golden Monkey King also made their move!
Their Qi-Blood Power erupted, trying to withstand this extrely powerful wave of spiritual power.
They managed to hold their ground; although the spiritual power currently had the upper hand against the Qi-Blood Power, it was not invincible.
But this spiritual fluctuation was rely the first wave. A second wave followed closely after.
However, after withstanding the first wave, both the Divine Sparrow King and Golden Monkey King seed to find so patterns in the attacks; the second wave proved not to be too much of a problem.
Naturally, Wang Sheng had even less of a problem.
Although they managed to withstand the waves, the Divine Sparrow King and Golden Monkey King temporarily had no effective solution to handle them; they could only fully contend with these attacks.
Wang Sheng glanced at the giant white lotus.
“At first, I thought the Heavenly Father might appear. Now, it seems the ‘Lifeless Vacuum Sensing Chapter’ has so tricks.”
Without any hesitation, he imdiately summoned the Black Dragon Spear.
Shocking World Dragon Spear!
Just as with confronting the Heavenly Father, the power of the Shocking World Dragon Spear was beyond imagination.
If the Heavenly Father couldn’t block it or even feared it, how could the White Lotus Spirit King possibly stop it? She was indeed more powerful than before, but by how much was uncertain.
Boom!
The phantom of the Black Dragon Spear directly penetrated the giant white lotus, its montum, and Qi Blood Power bursting forth, beginning to eradicate everything. It didn’t take long for the white lotus to completely disappear.
At that mont, Wang Sheng also withdrew his observing Divine Thought.
After the giant white lotus disappeared, the energy it had absorbed also vanished, as if it had never existed.
But during this brief mont, Wang Sheng was indeed able to discern so of the essence of that energy.
“Pure, flawless energy… is this the ‘free-floating spiritual power’ ntioned by Huangtian?”
Wang Sheng wasn’t sure, but he knew that if it was true, just a bit more ti might allow him to capture that kind of energy again.
Having seen it once made capturing it again much easier than if he were only aware of its na.
But that wasn’t the focus at this ti.
It was the White Lotus Spirit King.
Once the massive white lotus disappeared, the battle had already ended.
The Divine Sparrow King and the Golden Monkey King ca directly to Wang Sheng’s side; even though they were both in animal forms, the complexity of their expressions was apparent.
They had thought it would be a fierce battle, but it ended so easily?
Just how strong was this human, who, from start to finish, had only made two moves and defeated the Demonized White Lotus Spirit King, whom they thought they’d have to risk their lives against? They were afraid of his strength.
However, they and Wang Sheng thought the sa thing—now was not the ti to deal with this matter.
The mist over the lake had already vanished, leaving nothing behind, revealing the scene inside.
Almost all were withered lotuses, only a few retained so vestiges of life. Clearly, the White Lotus Spirit King had drained her kin completely, leaving not even their origins.
And the three white lotuses, who had been of no help during the battle, approached the lakeside, sowhat desperate.
From the beginning, they knew their mother might not survive, and they only wanted to save more of their siblings, but now it seed that few of their siblings remained, and those that did were barely alive—it was less being alive than a final flicker before death.
They three had seemingly beco the last remnant of the White Lotus Spirit Clan.
Wang Sheng paid no heed to these matters, since the White Lotus Spirit King was still alive.
“Still alive, then? Tell what happened.”
“There’s nothing much to say, just couldn’t resist the temptation. The Spirit Clan, life was too harsh. The words I spoke before were not empty; this is what your Human Race owes our Spirit Clan…”
The fall of the White Lotus Spirit King was unforeseen, but it was also her own desire. Since returning, so experiences had made her defenses crumble, turning her directly into the Demon King.
“I don’t want to bear those inexplicable responsibilities anymore. Being a Demon King is so much better, no need to care about anything, living capriciously, and even gaining back interest…”
Shattering the Heavenly Father’s illusion had restored Qiao Nian’s clarity for a short while, but now, the situation of the White Lotus Spirit King was entirely different from that of Qiao Nian.
Her choice was entirely her own.
Wang Sheng, the Divine Sparrow King, and the Golden Monkey King were all silent.
They had contemplated many possibilities, but if it was this kind of situation, there seed to be nothing left to say.
Then, at that mont, one of the three white lotuses that had led them here spoke up, “If that’s the case, Mother, why did you let us go?”
“Letting you go? Speaking of which, I should thank you, human. After cultivating my inner self, I absorbed a strange energy that reverted my mindset to what it was before, releasing three of you and even letting you seek help.
I thought using it this ti, absorbing that energy would maintain that mindset; unexpectedly, you destroyed it. Well, it’s good, leaving with no regrets. Hahaha…”
Wang Sheng had not expected that paralyzing that giant white lotus was actually what had awakened the White Lotus Spirit King.
But if he hadn’t destroyed it, they could only have been passively beaten.
This was completely unexpected to him.
Before he could speak, the White Lotus Spirit King laughed again, her laughter eerie and chilling.
Imdiately after, a familiar scene erged.
A cultivation technique appeared in mid-air!
