Chapter 359: Nine-Nine-to-One Infinite Array Formation
Cang Xuan’s killing intent was raging unprecedentedly.
Even since his birth, there had been very few instances where he had such terrifying murderous intentions.
The foundation that he had been managing for hundreds of millions of years had been destroyed in just a glimpse of an eye.
Moreover, that was his chance of sanctioning the way of Dao as well.
Anyone would’ve gone crazy if they were in the same shoe as him.
As he pointed into the sky, the sky started to tremble as the tens of thousands of laws were in resonance. The peerless Laws Net was seemingly materializing, entrapping Jiang Ming in the middle layer by layer.
Right on top of Jiang Ming’s head, the thunderous storm formed an eye of tribulation.
“Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation! The judgment of good and evil! Fall!” Cang Xuan swiped down, as if slashing the sky and revealing the injustice. At the same time, his primal spirit vibrated, radiating with the essence of this special ability. “This technique is the pinnacle of strength and Yang. It integrates the laws of heaven and earth, mobilizes the power of authority, judges the good and evil of the living beings in the world. If deemed to be of the good, not only does it bring no harm to the person, the technique will temper the person’s body, strengthen the person’s essence and enhance the person’s aptitude as well; as for the ones deemed evil, the destructive energy will naturally destroy the person’s body, annihilating their very soul. Its power varies with the degree of evil deeds the person has committed. Jiang Ming…”
Schadenfreude flashed through Cang Xuan’s face as he remarked, “You destroyed the Heaven Court and slaughtered more than ten thousand Immortal officials. Your crime is of the extreme that even heaven couldn’t tolerate without punishment. All the evil in the world is not enough to describe your sins. As such, this blow to you is comparable to the power of destroying a whole world in one strike!”
The voice reverberating from his primal spirit was so fast that it spread throughout in the blink of an eye.
However, when he thought of Jiang Ming being safe from the detonation of so many Great Overarching Dao vessels, his heart sank.
‘This is the law of order, the law of rules, and the law of heaven!’ Jiang Ming raised his head and looked at the terrifying eyes of tribulation, his heart trembled.
An inexplicable thought flashed his mind.
What would happen if he rushed into it and refined his body with the power of the thunder tribulation?
He would become ashes. There would be absolutely no other possible outcome.
To block it off with his accumulated points from the Supreme Pagoda?
God damn it! He had already wasted ten thousand points already.
Was there any benefit for staying here any longer?
There was none!
If he were to fight against the Heavenly Emperor, it would be meaningless because the other party was too strong and that he was too weak himself.
Apart from self-destructing the Dao vessels, what else could he do?
After all, there was still the Laws Net here.
His opponent would have at least a Demi-Sage level weapon as well.
“Cang Xuan! I will definitely kill you when I return to this place!” Looking at the power of thunder tribulation still brewing above his head, and feeling the solidification of the surrounding space, Jiang Ming also understood that the normal method of escaping was futile.
Not only was the surrounding area sealed, even his body was locked on by the technique.
He looked at Cang Xuan indifferently.
“Do you think you can still escape...” Before Cang Xuan even finished speaking, Jiang Ming disappeared into thin air, leaving no traces behind.
‘He’s gone?’ Cang Xuan was bamboozled.
‘This is the Heavenly Punishment Thunder Tribulation that has already been evoked and brewing. He was even locked on by the power of the heavens. How can he still escape?’ Cang Xuan was shocked.
The Eye of Thunder Tribulation also began to dissipate quickly. This meant that all traces of the target had been lost.
Cang Xuan was not the only one that was soaked, so were Dongfang Changqing, and all the experts who arrived.
For a brief moment, they were in dead silence.
“Everyone!” After a long time, Cang Xuan glanced at those of the Tai Xuan Gate, Sacred Sect and the God Clan that rushed over and said solemnly, “The Saint Lord is in cultivation retreat, and he won’t be coming out of it unless it is the last resort. But now, we are facing a powerful enemy from the outside world. Although he is merely of the feeble generations, he destroyed the Heaven Court in one blow. Moreover, he even managed to silently flee even when he was locked on by the power of heavens. This shows a fact that the opposing party has terrifying special abilities and are of great background. It is likely that he will be returning in the future, leading an army to attack our chiliocosm!”
“I need to rebuild the Heaven Court! I also need the help of fellow Taoists!”
Cang Xuan cupped his hands.
“The ministries are with Your Majesty!”
Dongfang Changqing was the first to make a statement.
The experts of the three major forces pondered for a long time, took in various information of what had transpired and finally nodded in agreement.
…
Jiang Ming returned to Chuyang Peak.
As he stood on the balcony and looked at the sunset, he let out a breath of relief.
To go out in the early morning and return in the evening.
What happened that day was quite eventful.
Originally, he felt that Ye Qingxian was in danger. Upon arriving there, the Stone Mansion that was located over there was destroyed; he was then invited to the Heaven Court, but ended up destroying the Heaven Court.
“I’m really a star of disaster!”
A strange expression flashed through Jiang Ming’s face.
As he looked into the sky, he saw the Auction House on top of Tianyuan Sea. There were many experts who came out of it one after another. Some were happy and nervous as they turned into light streams, swiftly leaving the place right after. Some of them were gloomy, as they locked on to those who initially left and went on a chase.
“The auction has actually ended!” Jiang Ming was speechless.
“Senior Brother!” Junior Sister Phoenix came over and hugged his arm, swaying his arm between her two humps as she pouted, “Why did you go off so long this time? I’ve been waiting for you and didn’t even attend the auction! You have to compensate me!”
“What sort of compensation?”
“Senior brother, you know well how to!”
“I don’t!”
“You do!”
“I really don’t!”
“Then I’ll teach you how!”
Junior Sister Phoenix’s eyebrows perked up. Just as she was about to sit on top of Jiang Ming like Yu Ji on a lotus, she saw Mountain Master Tian Yuan rushing over with a shocked expression on his face.
She pouted in dissatisfaction, turned her head and returned to her room.
“What’s the matter with your Junior Sister today?” Mountain Master Tian Yuan didn’t know what happened, “Brother, could it be that you two are in a fight?”
“She’s just throwing a tantrum. Just ignore her!” Jiang Ming smiled, motioned for him to sit down. He brewed a pot of Immortal tea, poured two cups, and asked, “Big brother, I didn’t go up into the auction house. How was it?”
“Brother, to think that you didn’t attend such a big event! This surprised me!” Mountain Master Tian Yuan knew that Jiang Ming was mysterious and unpredictable. As such, he didn’t ask any further questions, but smiled and said, “The items auctioned are really unique. Some of them are unheard of, some of the elixirs auctioned had unimaginable effects and they even took out a Demi-Sage weapon. Unfortunately, there weren’t any forces that could afford the price.”
He continued to slowly explain while drinking the Immortal tea.
For example, there was the Nine-Reincarnation Golden Pill. Once a person consumed the pill, it would allow the person to directly reach the Great Overarching Realm but the person could never improve further after that. His cultivation realm would stop there for the rest of his life and would be the weakest Great Overarching Golden Immortal at that. Even so, it made many experts go crazy for it.
There was also the enslaved Bi Jiu. Although he was a demon Venerate, he was still placed in auction and was bought off by the Vermillion Bird with great hatred.
“The most special item of all was a set of Nine-Nine-to-One Infinite Array Formation. Based on the introduction, it is necessary to use complete sets of Dao Vessels to be evoked and that the units need to be in the multiplications of nine. The more Dao vessels used to evoke the array formation, the greater the power it produces. If nine Great Overarching Dao Vessels were to be used to form the array formation and that they fit perfectly, there is even the possibility of killing a Demi-Sage with it; if 81 Great Overarching Dao Vessels are used to evoke the array formation, it can entrap those of the Saint Lords; if nine Venerate Dao Vessels are used, then it can even kill a Saint Lord!” As Mountain Master Tian Yuan explained, his face was filled with shock. “I don’t know whether the specific effect is true, but it was auctioned off to the Heavenly Buddha.”
“By the way, Yu Fei asked me to send you a message that there will be a Venerate Conference held tomorrow on the Southern side of Tian Yuan Sea. She was hoping that you will attend!”
As he passed the message, Mountain Master Tian Yuan had a weird look on his face.
“Yu Fei?” Jiang Ming couldn’t help laughing, “Why? Is she going to be inheriting the throne of the Heavenly Emperor? Will those old people even agree to it?”
“From the looks of her confident demeanor, they might really agree!” Mountain Master Tian Yuan smiled. “After all, Yu Fei is recognized as the number one beauty in the infinite worlds and has many great friends in the Fo Sect, the Dragon Clan, the Demon Holy Palace and many more!”
He emphasized the word “great friends” a lot.
“If that’s the case, let’s just go and enjoy the fun!” Jiang Ming replied with a smile.
If Yu Fei really ascended onto the throne of the Heavenly Emperor, it would be a great joke to the world.
No, it should be that there would be loads of eventful happenings from it.
“Haha! It will definitely be very lively!” Mountain Master Tian Yuan couldn’t help laughing.
They agreed to go together tomorrow and Mountain Master Tian Yuan returned to his residence.
‘Ascending to the throne of the Heavenly Emperor by throwing yourself to the world?’
As he thought of this, Jiang Ming couldn’t help shaking his head even with his temperament.
