Chapter 276: A Change in Spiritual Force
TL: Sponsored chapter (4/5)
Xu Disheng lowered his gaze and glanced at Zhang Duoyu, who was barely alive amidst a pile of corpses. With a gentle wave of his gilded moon-white sleeve, a stream of extremely pure violet Spiritual Force enveloped Zhang Duoyu.
At this moment, Xu Dishengs body had been reshaped into an Immortal Body by that sliver of consciousness belonging to the heavenly spirit of Floating Immortal Heaven, utilizing the innate violet qi of the Immortal Race. Though his soul, born from the Spirit Race, was anchored to his true spirit, the Spiritual Force he wielded now carried an exceedingly subtle trace of Immortal qi. This transformed Spiritual Force, manifesting in a light purple hue, was constantly fluctuating, mystical to the extreme.
As he stood there in midair, Xu Disheng's remarkable appearance quickly caught the attention of many. Several Sea of Qi stage geniuses displayed strong signs of wariness, quietly steering their Magic Treasures away from him.
That Dao Foundation stage rogue cultivator who had previously kicked Zhang Duoyu looked particularly uneasy, staying rooted to the spot, not daring to make a move.
Being so close to Xu Disheng, merely a dozen yards away, allowed him to feel Xu Disheng's unfathomably deep and vast aura all too clearly. Therefore, he didn't dare to act rashly, fearing a casual strike from Xu Disheng might obliterate him without even giving him a chance to argue his case.
There were many people in the Profound Sky Sword Sect scavenging corpses, but even the most powerful among them were merely a few Divine Core stage Spirit Masters from medium-sized forces. Xu Disheng's sudden appearance out of thin air amid spatial distortions, was already terrifying enough. His overwhelming presence at the peak of the Divine Core stage made even other Divine Core stage Spirit Masters wary of provoking him. They instructed their followers to gradually move away as they watched from a distance.
The violet Spiritual Force enveloped Zhang Duoyu, causing his bodily injuries to rapidly heal under the glow of the violet light. However, his Jianggong acupoint had been severely damaged by that kick, making a full recovery extremely challenging.
After a while, Zhang Duoyu slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw were the three suns high in the sky and a young man in a moon-white robe standing in midair, surrounded by two beautiful halos of light, looking down at him.
Struggling to his feet and kneeling on the corpse of a Profound Sky Sword Sect disciple, Zhang Duoyu's mind was flooded with thoughts. He bowed deeply, expressing his gratitude, "Thank you, Spirit Master, for saving my life."
Xu Disheng lightly flicked his sleeve and said, "I am from the Administration Hall of the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance. Would you like to follow me from now on?"
Looking at the shattered state of his Jianggong acupoint, Zhang Duoyu revealed a self-deprecating smile, "I am deeply honored by your high regard, Spirit Master. However this Zhang Duoyu is unable to return your favor. I am now crippled and unable to continue cultivating, so I am unworthy of following you."
Under normal circumstances, being noticed by such a powerful Divine Core stage Spirit Master would have delighted Zhang Duoyu. But now
When he tried to sense his profound law foundation in his sea of qi, he found that he was unable to move any profound qi. He realized that a former Dao Foundation stage cultivator like himself was now no different from an ordinary mortal. Zhang Duoyu's demeanor darkened further, wishing he could just end his life right there.
"It's fine. The shattered Jianggong acupoint can be healed with spiritual items, and the profound law foundation can be reestablished through comprehension. As the saying goes, break and rebuild. Starting anew from the Cleansed Meridians stage isn't an issue."
Clearly, Xu Disheng wasn't leaving the matter open for discussion. With a casual wave of his sleeve, he effortlessly moved Zhang Duoyu next to him with a wave of Spiritual Force. He summoned a projection of a giant sword Psychic Magic Treasure beneath their feet. In an instant, they shot off into the sky in a dazzling beam of light.
"Thats the aura of a Psychic Magic Treasure!"
"That handsome young Spirit Master definitely has a significant background!"
There were many onlookers watching from afar. After Xu Disheng departed, they swarmed towards the site, marveling at the departing brilliant white beam of light. They sensed the formidable might of the Psychic Magic Treasure and began to openly express their admiration amongst each other.
A Divine Core stage Spirit Master from a medium-sized force remarked solemnly, "If my guess is correct, that young man might very well be Supreme Spirit Master from the Administration Hall of the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance."
"What?
Supreme Spirit Master? That unparalleled genius who slaughtered BranDisheng Sword Primordial Lord Qi Taiqing all by himself?"
The surrounding crowd was visibly shaken, their voices filled with astonishment.
That Divine Core stage Spirit Master who spoke just now noticed all eyes in the vicinity turning towards him. He paused before saying in a deep voice, "Supreme Spirit Master fought above his rank, slaying BranDisheng Sword Primordial Lord Qi Taiqing. He then vanished without a trace. Its been several days without any sighting of him, but the most telling proof of his identity was the Spiritual Force he wielded just now. As everyone knows, that Supreme Spirit Master who recently rose to fame is indeed a member of the Spirit Race from the Profound Depth Spiritual World!"
Another Divine Core stage Spirit Master immediately countered, "The Spiritual Force used by the Spirit Race of the Profound Sky is either a blazing white or a pale blue color. But the Spiritual Force he used just now was violet. Thats something completely unheard of."
The crowd was abuzz with discussions, yet no one noticed a rogue cultivator at the Dao Foundation stage standing quietly below, his face deathly pale, filled with the fear of having narrowly escaped a catastrophe.
Just as he saw Xu Disheng take Zhang Duoyu away, he feared that Zhang Duoyu might take the opportunity for revenge, striking fear into his heart.
However, he was overthinking it. Zhang Duoyu could hardly manage himself, let alone seek revenge on a Dao Foundation stage rogue cultivator who had casually kicked him.
Hearing that the youth with the cold and detached gaze might be Supreme Spirit Master, who recent achieved legendary fame, the Dao Foundation stage rogue cultivator couldnt control the terror and fear in his heart, causing his body tremble.
It wasnt that he was mentally weak, but at this moment, the figure known as Supreme Spirit Master of the Administration Hall had the power to instantly silence anyone within tens of thousands of miles! contemporary romance
Rumors said that the Supreme Spirit Master was a cold-blooded killer, leaving seas of blood churning behind him. He supposedly exterminated millions of living beings in several of the large cities of the medium-sized Zhang family, leaving no survivors!
Later, he even defeated a Primordial Spirit stage cultivator on his own while his own cultivation base was only at the Divine Core stage. He had sealed and annihilated the extraordinarily powerful BranDisheng Sword Primordial Lord, Qi Taiqing. After this battle, his name spread like wildfire throughout the Dawndusk Territory.
How could he have ever imagined that the person from the rumors was so close to him? Given his murderous nature, it was a wonder he hadnt been killed on the spot!
With these thoughts running through his head, the fear on the rogue cultivators face deepened, and he no longer cared about scavenging for remains. He turned heel, activated his escape technique, and stealthily fled the territory of the Profound Sky Sword Sect.
While many details in the rumors were inaccurate, Xu Disheng, as a Supervising Spirit Master from the Dawndusk Alliances Administration Hall, was naturally held responsible for the actions he carried out as a proxy of the Alliance. Thus, the rumors werent entirely false, though many of the deeds were not personally carried out by Xu Disheng.
Two celestial turtles traversed side by side through the clouds, casting large, swiftly moving shadows on the ground below as they headed towards the border between the Profound Yin Territory and the Dawndusk Territory.
Shao Huangnian took out his Dawndusk Spiritual Essence, examining the detailed map of the Profound Yin Territory within it, comparing it carefully with his surroundings. "Supreme Daoist Brother might still be unaware and trapped somewhere. Perhaps he hasnt even received the orders from Administration Hall yet."
He was certain that Xu Disheng had not perished because his name still appeared on the Daoist Ranking of the Administration Hall and had not faded away.
With the rapid expansion of the Dawndusk Daoist Alliances influence, the impact of the Administration Halls Daoist Rankings for both Territories was also growing rapidly, becoming well-known throughout the Dawndusk Territory and the Mang Mountain Territory. freeweb . com
The Divine Core stage Daoist Ranking was named the Dawn Daoist Ranking, listing over thirty Supervising Spirit Masters from Administration Hall and thousands of ordinary Divine Core stage Spirit Masters. As the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance grew stronger, the number of Divine Core stage Spirit Masters on the ranking increased, including several golden titles representing membership in the Administration Hall.
The Primordial Spirit stage Daoist Ranking, known as the Sunset Daoist Ranking, was named after the Administration Hall, established by the leader of the Dawn Sunset Daoist Sect. Each golden title on it represented a Supervising Primordial Lord, who would almost certainly become a Clone Avatar stage Greater Lord in the future.
The first name on the Sunset Daoist Ranking, Falling Meteor Primordial Lord, had the astonishing achievement of slaying a Clone Avatar stage Greater Lord from Boundless Sword Sect on his own!
On one of the celestial turtles, Lu Xiuzhu suddenly sensed something. He turned his head and saw a giant sword shadow emitting a fiery white glow rapidly approaching their position. Judging by its current speed, it would catch up with the celestial turtles in a few breaths of time.
After a closer look, Lu Xiuzhus face suddenly lit up with joy, and he called out loudly to Shao Huangnian, "Passing Epoch Spirit Master, the person coming behind us is Supreme Spirit Master!"
Hearing this, the hundreds of people on both celestial turtles changed expressions and looked back.
The giant sword shadow, clad in violet Spiritual Force, cut through the clouds and mist, arriving in front of everyone within three breaths, where it stopped in midair.
The two celestial turtles also came to a halt. One of them started growling softly at Xu Disheng, as if showing affection. This turtle was brought out from the Dawndusk Daoist Alliance by him, and although Shao Huangnian could command it with the Dawndusk Spiritual Essence, it was still more familiar with Xu Disheng.
"Are you really Supreme Daoist Brother?" Shao Huangnian hesitated, struck by the young mans unparalleled beauty. Although he also had the Spiritual Force of the Spirit Race, his appearance was not the same as before, and there were slight differences in cultivation base. His aura felt somewhat familiar, yet also significantly different, making him hesitant to jump to conclusions.
Lu Xiuzhu, however, was utterly confident. After looking around at the somewhat puzzled crowd, he stepped forward and smiled. "This person is Supreme Spirit Master, without a doubt. I recognize Supreme Spirit Masters unique gaze."
Xu Disheng extended a wave of violet Spiritual Force, enveloping Zhang Duoyu beside him and gently placing him on the celestial turtle where Lu Xiuzhu was. He asked, "Daoist Brother, did you receive the order from Administration Hall?"
Shao Huangnian, looking intently into Xu Dishengs cool and indifferent gaze, finally connected this young man with the Supreme Spirit Master in his memory. He smiled broadly and replied, "Daoist Brother, after you killed Qi Taiqing, you disappeared without a trace. We searched for you for several hours and were very worried."
