Bang!
The giant azure fla hand opened, and the corpse fell, smashing in front of Su Chen. Its entire body was already scorched black beyond recognition, and the sll of burning ca Rushing Toward One. The black Armor on the surface was already covered in cracks, but it still maintained a complete corpse.
"It still has to be the Heavenly Venerable." Su Chen couldn't help but sigh with emotion. Under these circumstances, the Heavenly Venerable would grant him the greatest convenience within the scope of his abilities.
The corpse of a Morning Star was quite precious, even more so for him. It could be refined into Morning Star Embers to enhance himself.
"I can also extract Sky-Scars from the Morning Star Artifact." Su Chen swept his gaze over it, and the displeasure in his heart dissipated sowhat.
This guy was probably a watcher left outside by that Huang Pan or sothing similar. If he didn't have the Heavenly Venerable Trump Card on him, he would have perished at this guy's hands.
"However, bringing this thing away will still require so effort." Su Chen frowned. The Heavenly Venerable's Phantom Image gradually disappeared.
Bringing things out of the Nether Realm required consuming a certain amount of Psionic Power. After all, within the Nether Realm, he couldn't open his portable space.
He couldn't open it in the Flare Realm either; only in that Cultivation Sanctum could he do it.
In the past, things like Divine Blood and the like were basically no problem for him. But right now, it was, after all, the corpse of a Morning Star and a Morning Star Artifact.
"There's still a little bit of the Great Heaven Pill left. Coupled with the Eternal Physique Doppelganger layering, it should be enough."
He also didn't know how the Great Heaven Pill was actually manufactured... Su Chen's heart stirred slightly. The people of Great Heaven were truly eerie. Such a formidable thing, who knew what it was made out of.
"Forget it, I already ate it, thinking so much is useless." Su Chen shook his head. But he felt the coercive might transmitting from overhead becoming increasingly intense. Looking up, that Solar Fla was already nearly invisible to the naked eye.
"Gotta go quickly."
The Purple Flas lingering around his body also faded, and Su Chen regained his sensory connection with reality. Not daring to delay, he grabbed the corpse, his Psionic Power surging wildly to wrap around it.
He vanished abruptly.
.........
At the core of the Solar Fla, the rumbling was incessant, the vibrations continuous. Light and fla intertwined, and torn spatial rifts were everywhere.
Who knew how much ti had passed before it gradually stopped.
The brilliantly burning Starfire from before had already vanished Without a Trace.
The Statue also beca dim and lightless, covered in cracks. Accompanied by a wail, the Spirit of the Vast Sun darted out of the Statue, also looking very dispirited.
Crack, crack—the Statue crumbled, turning into Pulverized to Dust.
The Spirit of the Vast Sun let out a whimper, its angry eyes staring fixedly at the blurry black shadow before it. Bulges constantly appeared on the surface of its body.
It was as if sothing wanted to escape from the black shadow, but was firmly held down, unable to leave.
"Quite nostalgic, aren't we?" A drifting, uncertain voice sounded. Huang Pan's figure appeared beside it, speaking respectfully, "Great Heaven, this Spirit of the Vast Sun has been sacrificed to by the Taixuan Family for tens of thousands of years, so it naturally favors them. It will be fine once we take it back and wash it."
"Hmm." Great Heaven's tone was indifferent. His gaze fell upon the Spirit of the Vast Sun harboring hostility. "How could that Taixuan Hong be chosen so suddenly?"
Hearing this na, Huang Pan's expression beca sowhat unnatural. He said in a low voice, "This person is indeed sowhat unusual. He defeated Kong Ming head-on."
"Oh?" Hearing this, Great Heaven also seed sowhat surprised. "To be able to defeat Kong Ming of the Buddha Land head-on, does this person also have the Azure God Talent?"
"Nine out of ten." Huang Pan nodded. In his view, this was almost Set in Stone. It was just that words couldn't be spoken in absolutes; he had to leave so leeway.
"Interesting. The Taixuan Family has been hunted for so many years, its population withered, yet they can still give birth to an Azure God Talent." Great Heaven seed to sigh with emotion.
"It was my incompetence." Huang Pan said hurriedly, "Had I found this place earlier, I wouldn't have let that Taixuan Hong beco The Chosen One."
"It's a Fickle World, no one can predict everything. Besides, there should still be quite a lot of Human Stock from the Taixuan Family left in the garden. It's nothing more than expending so effort to find him."
Great Heaven didn't seem to care about the matter of The Chosen One. Finding soone out of thin air with absolutely no ties to the Abyssal Domain would naturally be fraught with difficulties.
But since his surna was Taixuan, then it was completely not a problem. The simplest and most direct way was to search by bloodline.
With the Taixuan Family declining to this extent, almost all the Pillars of the Abyssal Domain stored the fresh blood of the Taixuan Family.
"Understood." Huang Pan nodded. He naturally knew of this thod, but he wasn't feeling that comfortable in his heart. After all, in his view, everything was originally supposed to fall into his hands, but the result was A Total Loss.
Although there were bloodline sacrifice thods to search for him, Taixuan Hong wasn't the only one left in the Taixuan Family. Being hunted to this extent, they were scattered everywhere.
So had already changed their appearances and joined other Factions, like the Buddha Land which had quite a few, and they had so within Great Heaven too. There were even so who had delved deep into the Nether Mist.
If they really wanted to search, they still had to eliminate these interference items. The manpower and material resources consud would not be a small number.
Unless they had Taixuan Hong's direct blood relatives in their hands, or could confirm which lineage of the Taixuan Family's ancestors this person ca from, which could eliminate a lot of interference items.
"I know nothing about this person. If I want to find out, I'm afraid I have to rely on those Radiant Moons."
Huang Pan frowned. Those few Radiant Moons had already fled Without a Trace while Great Heaven and Taixuan Ye were fighting.
But he estimated that the so-called Dust Star Sea couldn't be far from here. If he found so people, he should be able to find it very quickly.
He was already calculating this matter, while the Spirit of the Vast Sun continued Grimacing and Baring Teeth, blocking the Tower of Spirit.
"Right." Huang Pan suddenly reacted and said hurriedly, "Kong Ming is still in this tower. He is a Buddha Heir of the Buddha Land with the potential to compete for the Master's position. If we capture this person..."
Before his voice faded, his eyelids suddenly twitched, and Great Heaven beside him couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation of surprise.
They only saw that on the sixth layer of the Tower of Spirit, Buddha-light lingered and flickered, turning into a long rainbow. A figure gradually erged. Buddha-light swirled around him, as if there was the sound of chanting scriptures, reflecting Phantoms Images of various Buddhas.
That figure was wearing a crisp white suit, yet sporting black sunglasses, his bald head shining brightly.
"World-Honored One?" Huang Pan's heart ran cold, feeling a chill run all over his body.
Great Heaven fed on Devious Gods. The entire Abyssal Domain knew their terror was apparent on the surface.
But the terror of the Buddha Land was hidden beneath the water.
Especially this World-Honored One, simply an Unworthy Scoundrel. Ordinary concepts of morality and honor completely couldn't be applied to him; he would act At Any Cost to achieve his goals.
Let alone a Radiant Moon, even if it was a Morning Star, or an even lower-tier Professional facing off against the Buddha Land, he might even personally make a move, because all living beings are equal.
A Vast Sun and an ordinary Professional were also equal. Naturally, there was no such thing as the strong bullying the weak.
Seeing this attire, who knew where he was playing tricks again.
"World-Honored One..." Great Heaven's figure seed to solidify a bit, appearing cautious.
The Spirit of the Vast Sun blocking between the two looked left and right, snorted a stream of fire from its nostrils—both angry and helpless—and turned into Streaking Light, subrging into the small Flalet suspended In the Void.
"How many years has the Sovereign of the Purple Zenith been lost?" The World-Honored One started settling accounts right away, pondering, "It has been over thirteen thousand years since Taixuan Ye's death was confird."
"I never expected it. Today it is finally lost and found," the World-Honored One sighed with emotion.
Lost and found? Hearing these words, Huang Pan felt a twitch in his heart.
This wasn't sothing the Buddha Land lost, so where did "found" co from?
"Naturally, the Abyssal Domain found it..." Huang Pan's heart jumped, only to find the World-Honored One staring straight at him, seemingly having read his thoughts.
His scalp went numb, but he heard Great Heaven say indifferently, "Let's skip the nonsense between you and . Since you are also here, then let us jointly control this Sovereign of the Purple Zenith."
"Jointly control?" The World-Honored One pondered. "How so? The Spirituality can only choose one person, and only one person can Job Entry it. How can it be jointly controlled?"
Great Heaven said, "Naturally, each relies on their own abilities."
"But if soone from my Buddha Land is chosen, I'm afraid you won't let it go easily. How should it be handled then?" The World-Honored One kept pressing the question.
If soone from my Great Heaven is chosen, you, the World-Honored One, would probably be even more shaless, Huang Pan muttered in his heart, but said aloud:
"World-Honored One, right now Taixuan Hong hasn't been found yet, and the position of The Chosen One hasn't been vacated. Isn't it too early to consider these things..."
Before he could finish his words, he felt two almost substantial gazes staring straight at him. Huang Pan's words stagnated, his scalp involuntarily going numb.
Taixuan Hong, The Chosen One has already been born, and is actually still a mber of the Taixuan Family?
The mont he descended, he ca directly to face Great Heaven, completely unaware of what had happened here.
No wonder Great Heaven had this attitude. Before killing the previous Chosen One, there was indeed no need to discuss these matters.
The World-Honored One remained calm on the surface, saying, "What you say makes so sense. It seems you already have a draft in your mind. How do we find that Taixuan Hong?"
Huang Pan could only bite the bullet and say, "We know very little about him. But previously, there were a few Radiant Moons staying here who claid to be from sowhere called the Dust Star Sea. They should know quite a bit about Taixuan Hong."
"Moreover, they know about the Sovereign of the Purple Zenith, and also know about our Great Heaven and the Buddha Land. If we let them leave and the news spreads in the Abyssal Domain, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of the other Factions."
"Hmm." The World-Honored One nodded, praising, "Ghost King Huang Pan's thods are quite extraordinary. Then let's do as you say."
Huang Pan felt Anxious and Apprehensive in his heart. Being praised by this World-Honored One was not a good thing.
With a flick of a finger, a wisp of Buddha-light fell onto the Flalet anchoring the Spirit of the Vast Sun. He turned back and walked into the Tower of Spirit, falling into Dormancy.
"He took Kong Ming and left." Great Heaven suddenly said.
"Just left like that?" Huang Pan was stunned. Looking at that Flalet, wasn't he afraid their Great Heaven would swallow this Spirit of the Vast Sun alone?
But on second thought, he suddenly understood. Nowhere to Hide; the lair of their Great Heaven was right in the Abyssal Domain.
"Do as you suggested. Now construct a Path of Guile nearby; I will send soone to help you." Great Heaven's Phantom Image also tossed out a gleam of dark light, which also attached to that Flalet, and returned into the rift.
"Yes." Huang Pan watched Great Heaven leave, his gaze falling on the Tower of Spirit close at hand.
He estimated that before finding Taixuan Hong, this thing would still stay here. Neither the Buddha Land nor Great Heaven would take it back.
"It actually turned out like this." Huang Pan surveyed the surroundings, finally letting out a cold snort. Shadows appeared around him, attempting to tear through Space. A mont later, his figure disappeared, having arrived in the Nether Realm.
Who knew what thod he used, but he didn't appear randomly in the Nether Realm. Instead, he arrived directly on the warship he had ridden previously.
"Ghost King Huang Pan!"
The mont he appeared, soone hurriedly ran over, looking panicked. "Your Excellency Luo Shuo... Your Excellency Luo Shuo... He has perished!"
"What?" Huang Pan's expression drastically changed, his Aura growing heavy. Within the shadows, twisted tentacles seed to spread out. He shouted in a deep voice, "What happened!"
"The specific situation, we aren't too clear either..." The subordinate didn't dare to delay, hurriedly pulling up a Virtual Screen. "Not long ago, a high-energy heat spot suddenly appeared nearby. Your Excellency Luo Shuo imdiately went to investigate."
"Soon, that place was enveloped by dazzling lightning. Faintly, a sentence could be heard: 'Sacrifice my deceased Tianyi Brothers.' After that, no life traces could be detected."
"Tianyi Brothers?" Huang Pan looked coldly at the screen. Due to the influence of the energy Aftermath, the captured scene was extrely limited. He could only see a tall figure faintly erging, intertwined with cyan light.
"Radiant Moon thods, what a Taixuan Hong." Huang Pan's face was deadly silent. "What a deep bond of brotherhood!"
............
In another void, Kong Ming's figure tumbled out. The Buddha-light wrapping him turned into the shadow of the World-Honored One.
"World-Honored One!" Kong Ming hurriedly bowed, but was held up by an invisible force. "No need for so many formalities. Let ask you... you..."
Before the World-Honored One finished his sentence, his brows couldn't help but furrow: "...Where is your Seven-Branch Wondrous Tree?"
Upon hearing this, Kong Ming's expression also changed slightly. After being defeated by Taixuan Hong, the subsequent events were overwhelming, and he had actually forgotten about this matter.
Only now did he suddenly rember. Setting everything else aside, just losing the Seven-Branch Wondrous Tree was a massive sin.
Kong Ming felt tight in his heart, but didn't dare to conceal it, explaining: "Not long ago, while my Master and I were watering it as usual, for so unknown reason, that Seven-Branch Wondrous Tree abruptly disappeared right before the two of us."
"Disappeared?" Hearing this, the World-Honored One remained silent for a mont before saying, "Your Master didn't discover any anomalies?"
Kong Ming said hurriedly, "Master thought of every possible thod, but couldn't find the cause."
This matter was truly eerie. When he spoke, he even felt a bit of guilt out of nowhere, afraid that the World-Honored One wouldn't believe him.
The World-Honored One didn't press the matter, his voice not even betraying any emotion: "Why are you chanting scriptures to ? Where is your Master?"
"This..." Kong Ming hesitated, feeling helpless. "Master seed to have gone looking for that Dust Star Sea."
"Dust Star Sea..." The World-Honored One nodded. "No need to be nervous. Tell the ins and outs of this matter."
Kong Ming naturally didn't dare to refuse. "It's a long story. More than half a year ago..."
The World-Honored One listened to Kong Ming's narration, remaining unresponsive the entire ti. Even when Kong Ming finished speaking about the blood sacrifice and Taixuan Ye, he still didn't say a word.
Kong Ming felt sowhat nervous in his heart, unable to help but say, "Master must have discovered so abnormal situation, which is why he didn't report to you..."
"No matter." The World-Honored One interrupted, chuckling. "I naturally understand. You are a pillar of my Buddha Land. Choosing to report to imdiately was not a mistake."
"Taixuan Hong... This person sure has good luck. Once we kill him, the Buddha Land will fully support you in competing for the position of the Sovereign of the Purple Zenith."
Kong Ming stagnated, the sha on his face flashing away.
Just now, during the narration, so things weren't necessary to explain in detail, while other things he deliberately omitted, including losing to Taixuan Hong.
But with this ntioned, he could only say helplessly, "World-Honored One, I have already lost the qualification to compete."
The World-Honored One's sunglasses suddenly shattered. In those indifferent, dead-water-like eyes, a hint of astonishnt actually surfaced: "You lost to that Taixuan Hong? Didn't he just enter the 8th-Tier, and only has the True Brilliance Talent?"
