Chapter 200: Arrest
Cloud Stream Spirit Master’s gaze was complex as he watched Xu Disheng fly down from the arena. “Zhang Yangui wins.”
He looked down at You Shao and paused for a moment before saying, “And now, the final match of the Sea of Qi division of the Eight Mountains Grand Tournament, deciding the title of Sacred Son. You Shao versus Zhang Yangui.”
You Shao revealed a bitter smile and said, “Spirit Master, Senior Martial Brother Zhang, I admit—”
Before he could even say ‘defeat’, a deafening rumble shook the entire Luminous Cloud Abyss!
A massive hand that blotted out the sky swatted down from the skies of the Luminous Cloud Abyss, smashing through the layers of mist and clouds. It lunged towards Xu Disheng, grabbing towards him as he left the arena!
“What is the meaning of this, Spirit Controlling Primordial Lord?” Almost all of the Primordial Lords sitting in the skies of the Luminous Cloud Abyss looked over at Spirit Controlling Primordial Lord the moment he suddenly let out an attack. Many of them let out exclamations of bewilderment.
Spirit Controlling Primordial Lord didn’t care a single bit about what other people thought. He continued to move the hand made out of profound qi, heavy like a mountain. It seemed like in the very next moment, Xu Disheng was about to be snatched up in his clutches!
As a Primordial Lord from the Yuluo Realm, he couldn’t wait until Xu Disheng returned to the Mingxin Mountain Range. It wasn’t convenient for him to deliberately make a trip to the Sixth Mountain just because a disciple violated sect rules. At that point, it shouldn’t have anything to do with him.
His current thoughts were to grab Xu Disheng, then reveal in front of everyone the ironclad evidence that he had violated sect rules. He would make sure the Primordial Lords remained silent, then take him back to his Domain and slowly refine the Profound Treasure out of him.
Xu Disheng had just flown out of the arena, and the profound qi in his sea of qi was exhausted. His face was pale, and he was on his way to his great hall to recover when he felt an extremely terrifying pressure above his head. He looked up and saw a massive hand made out of profound qi blotting out the sky as it smashed towards him through the layers of clouds.
Even with the Paramount Ancient Bell’s speed of recovery, his profound qi had hardly recovered to half by this point. He hardly had any time to react, and immediately took out the spell imbuement treasure that Celestial Tide Spirit Master had given him, and poured all of his remaining profound qi into it!
Capsizing Ocean!
The sound of roaring waves rang out as the phantom image of an enormous ocean appeared in the middle of the air!
Waves hundreds of meters tall surged powerfully, overflowing with extremely rich water elemental energy!
The aura of Celestial Tide Spirit Master’s Capsizing Ocean’s was incredible, but when it came into contact with the hand formed out of profound qi, it immediately burst apart!
The massive hand made of profound qi smashed through it like it was no more than a minor hindrance, making the enormous ocean phantom image look more like a small pond. It scattered back into water elemental energy, which dissipated throughout the Luminous Cloud Abyss.
This Capsizing Ocean spell hadn’t caused the slightest damage nor obstruction to the massive hand made out of profound qi. It bought him a single breath of time, but in that time, practically all of the Primordial Lords and Spirit Masters managed to grasp what was happening, drawing countless gazes.
Xu Disheng watched as the hand made of profound qi began to grab towards him again, and an insurmountable, life-threatening sense of terror filled his body. An inexplicable intuition told him that if he was caught by that hand, he would be cast into an endless hell with no hope of reprieve!
A cyan jade flute suddenly appeared in his sea of consciousness. The true artifact spirit of the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda spoke, its voice resounding directly in Xu Disheng’s mind.
“Master, release your mind completely. I will help you awaken your memories and resolve this crisis.” The voice echoed in his head, carrying an enticing allure.
Xu Disheng was bearing the full, restrictive pressure of the hand formed from profound qi. He was on the brink of losing his mind, and the profound qi in his sea of qi was now fully spent. It felt as if he would really sink into a bottomless abyss if he did as the voice said.
But…
If he completely awakened his past memories, would he still be himself?
The artifact spirit of the Black Sky Yellow Earth Pagoda had once said, “Now that you have completely broken away from Sahā Heaven, as long as you have my protection, your true spirit will never die, and you will continue to reincarnate.”
Clearly, the person that the artifact spirit was referring to as ‘Master’ was not him, but that lofty Bodhisattva!
If he reincarnated once more, it was certainly true that his true spirit wouldn’t be extinguished.
But then would I, Xu Disheng, still exist?
This was Xu Disheng’s only life!
.
On the other hand, that peerless Bodhisattva possesses an eternal true spirit!
His life was no more than a small splash in the nearly indefinitely long river of memories that belonged to that Bodhisattva.
I refuse to yield!
If he completely released his mind, the Bodhisattva might genuinely awaken a bit through the true spirit planted in the depths of his mind. Sure, it might help him through this crisis, but his short 20 years of memories would be completely drowned out. A fate like that was no different from death!
But how do I resolve this crisis?
In the span of this one breath of time, a powerful vortex of Soul Force began to revolve madly in Xu Disheng’s sea of consciousness. His thoughts spun thousands upon thousands of times, searching for a way to break out of this situation.
This was the Luminous Cloud Abyss, in the central sea of clouds!
How could a Divine Core stage Spirit Master, or even a Primordial Lord dare to attack a disciple of the sect here?
Unless the person who attacked had proper grounds to do so.
There was only one justifiable reason for them to attack at this moment, and that was under the pretext that he had violated sect rules!
In the Zhao Realm, he had slaughtered fellow disciples of the sect!
However, Celestial Tide Spirit Master was aware of this long ago, and had forcefully quelled the matter. That being said, the Zhao Realm was a place where the Mountain of Law’s Zhao Clan had been raising ghosts. If the Zhao Clan wanted to find out the details regarding the matter, it wouldn’t be difficult for them to do so.
But for them to delay this long, only to brazenly attack now under these circumstances… It must be because it would be inconvenient for them to take action once he returned to the Mingxin Mountain Range.
In that case… as long as he could hold out for another breath of time, someone would definitely intervene!
In the heights of the Luminous Cloud Abyss, Primordial Lord Yangze seemed to suddenly understand everything. When he spoke, his voice was full of anger. “Spirit Controlling Primordial Lord! What is the meaning of this?!”
He immediately swept his sleeves and spilled forth a stream of gray divine light, which swept towards the enormous hand made of profound qi below!
But he was a step behind. It was already a bit too late.
In Xu Disheng’s resplendent eyes, black vortexes of Soul Force raged. He looked up at the hand formed from profound qi above his head and let out a low roar that reverberated throughout the entire central sea of clouds. “Powerful… But you won’t be able to stop me!”
It seemed as if in the next moment, a certain layer had been broken through. Clad in the fully transformed White Heron Robe, Xu Disheng’s profound qi aura suddenly skyrocketed!
The phantom image of the Paramount Ancient Bell behind his head began to shine with an intense radiance, materializing from illusory to reality!
All of the power of heaven and earth within 10 li surged towards him, pouring into his body. The small golden bell in his Jianggong meridian point glowed with a lustrous golden brilliance, fully condensing into physical form!
The Dao Foundation stage!
Xu Disheng didn’t even have time to fully stabilize the Shangqing profound qi revolving crazily in his body. He gritted his teeth, then took out the Fierce Specter War Chariot and boldly ignited it!
At the Dao Foundation stage, it was possible to exert 70% of the might of a Psychic Magic Treasure. Although the Fierce Specter War Chariot had lost all the seals on it and thus lost most of its combat capability, it was still a genuine Psychic Magic Treasure ranked treasure!
Xu Disheng used his Dao Foundation stage cultivation to fully ignite the origin of the Fierce Specter War Chariot. It instantly erupted with an incomparably powerful impact force, blocking the hand made of profound qi!
The power that exploded from the Psychic Magic Treasure only managed to block the hand for an instant before being destroyed and fading away, leaving Xu Disheng in dismay.
