Chapter 589: Chapter 397: Peach Blossom Species! Venerable Peach Blossom on the Verge of Divinity Transformation! A Thread of Vitality_2
A short-tempered Nascent Soul Cultivator looked extremely displeased.
Numerous Nascent Souls used their True Essence to set up an exceptionally thick True Essence net, ensnaring Venerable Azure Dragon.
"He is no longer Venerable Azure Dragon."
Zhong Heng’s voice rang out among the crowd.
Everyone turned to look at him.
"Am I right, Venerable Peach Blossom?"
Zhong Heng fixed his gaze on Venerable Azure Dragon.
Then he suddenly turned his head, looking in another direction.
A sword shadow shot out from behind him.
"Celestial Maiden Sword!"
"Five Elements Chaos!"
"Nine Swords of Wandering Dragon!"
Three arrays flew out from Zhong Heng.
The Celestial Maiden’s figure merged with hers, the Qi of the Five Elements entwining, with shadows of the Wandering Dragon flickering.
This person was Yunmiao.
Yunmiao slashed with his sword, striking silently at an unremarkable person in the corner.
"Boom——————"
A violent storm engulfed everything here except the Nascent Soul cultivators.
Even many of the Nascent Soul cultivators’ expressions changed involuntarily.
Because they saw that facing such a fierce Sword Cultivator, the opponent still stood motionless.
Yunmiao held the sword with both hands.
His face reflected on the smooth blade.
Yunmiao sensed the change in the figure before him.
An aura like an abyss emerged, and the inconspicuous figure before him blossomed like a bright red flower.
An unrivaled face appeared.
If ordinary women were in front of her, they would undoubtedly feel inferior.
Yet, Yunmiao’s eyes held only battle intent.
His aura exploded again, Sword Qi bursting open behind him like two wings.
Yunmiao’s lips curled slightly.
"Good!!"
A sword mark on his forehead began to flicker.
"Void Sword!"
"Boom——————"
Cracks appeared on the red True Essence Shield in front of Venerable Peach Blossom.
"Oh? I didn’t expect such a genius in the West."
"But I do not wish to entangle with you further."
Venerable Peach Blossom’s voice was quite androgynous.
She stepped into the air.
With a wave of her hand.
"Peach Blossom Species! Gather!"
Nacent Soul cultivators who hadn’t been stripped of their Dao Seeds turned pale.
Their backs exploded, flesh mangled.
Countless pink seeds shot into the sky, converging into Venerable Peach Blossom’s hand.
She swallowed these seeds whole, her aura surging abruptly.
"Over seventy seeds are missing!?"
Venerable Peach Blossom’s charming eyes opened, a trace of gloom flashing within them.
She couldn’t even sense the aura of the Peach Blossom Species.
Yet she dared not linger, her figure disappearing in an instant.
"Do you think you can come and go as you please in the West?"
Venerable Peach Blossom faced dozens of enraged Nascent Soul cultivators.
But dozens of people couldn’t intercept her!?
Someone even fell from the sky under her counterattack.
Zhong Heng stood quietly on the already ravaged ground, watching Venerable Peach Blossom’s departing figure.
"Brother Zhong, why not take action?"
Lvx Mu seemed anxious.
Others didn’t know, but Lvx Mu was aware that Zhong Heng had set up a grand array around upon learning of the Dao Seeds.
With the help of a Mid-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Qingcang Cultivation Realm and Lvx Mu, and Zhong Heng’s astonishing array skills, a new Tier Eight Array was arranged around.
Although Lvx Mu was somewhat puzzled about what the Array Core of this Tier Eight Array was, enabling it to sustain and supply energy continuously in such a situation.
If Zhong Heng wished, this Tier Eight Array could be activated immediately.
Yet, Zhong Heng shook his head.
"Dozens of fellow cultivators couldn’t stop her from leaving, what merit does Zhong possess..."
"Venerable Peach Blossom... She has already touched upon the Divinity Transformation Dao..."
"That is... the Space Shifting Technique..."
Zhong Heng gazed at the sky.
The Spiritual Qi in the sky had been utterly disrupted.
In the sky, Karma Lotus bloomed, Wind Dragon roared, Sword Light pierced the sky, Divine Beasts howled...
All the Nascent Soul cultivators were not weaklings, but Venerable Peach Blossom managed to find a way to leave among a group of Nascent Soul cultivators by leveraging her unique Space Shifting Technique and profound cultivation.
Zhong Heng looked at the cultivators planted with Dao Seeds, sitting cross-legged, pale faced, healing.
A Spirit Pill Master was handing out pills to them, but despite the top quality pills, they couldn’t replenish them.
"How much cultivation did those Dao Seeds absorb..."
"How much benefit will Venerable Peach Blossom gain..."
"Here... sixty-three people, fifteen Mid-Stage Nascent Souls, forty-eight Early-Stage Nascent Souls..."
"Such immense energy..."
"It seems she is determined to break through to Divinity Transformation..."
Lvx Mu could not help but say: "Brother Zhong, didn’t you recover over seventy Dao Seeds?"
"Divinity Transformation... perhaps it’s not that simple?"
"Don’t forget, in the East, there are Nascent Soul cultivators in numbers close to the West..."
"If she was desperate enough, she could fully achieve her planned numbers..."
"I don’t know what Venerable Peach Blossom’s Divine Techniques are, but if she wasn’t confident in breaking through to Divinity Transformation, she certainly wouldn’t dare provoke all the Nascent Soul cultivators in the West..."
"Venerable Peach Blossom... must have already gained quite some confidence..."
Zhong Heng’s tone was somewhat heavy.
The multitude of Western cultivators had already developed a feud with her.
Zhong Heng had moreover thwarted Venerable Peach Blossom’s plans.
That meant a Divinity Transformation Cultivator might very well arrive in the Western Wanlang Mountains seeking trouble in the future.
Lvx Mu and the nearby cultivators also looked grim upon hearing this.
The battle in the sky had completely ended.
"Damn Easterners."
"Causing such harm to so many peers."
"He... is definitely not simple, mastering the Space Shifting Technique of Divinity Transformation Cultivators..."
Various cultivators now looked displeased.
However, upon hearing Zhong Heng’s explanation, their expressions changed.
Seeing the injuries on the seated cultivators only added to their dread, as these injuries had affected the essence, it would take at least three to four hundred years to recover, far before any progression.
Nascent Soul cultivators had lifespans of only two thousand years, three to four hundred years was not short.
"Before then, he must be stopped!"
"But is it really that easy? Don’t forget how many are in the East!"
"Even if conflict erupts, it’s enough to delay until Venerable Peach Blossom breaks through!"
"Then let’s inform them."
"Do you think he believes us or the East’s first, Venerable Peach Blossom?"
"And what about the West’s first, Venerable Azure Dragon?"
"Had he not been swapped, would we have fallen into this trap..."
"He’s... dead..." Zhu Xing walked over from afar.
In his arms lay the lifeless Venerable Azure Dragon.
Venerable Azure Dragon’s face was pale and gaunt, devoid of vitality.
A deceased Nascent Soul cultivator would ordinarily retain some spiritual mechanism.
"He... was drained."
"His essence completely absorbed, even that drop of Azure Dragon True Blood..."
Zhu Xing was tasked by Zhong Heng to seek the true body of Venerable Azure Dragon.
Now, his expression was as grim as could be.
Venerable Azure Dragon was, after all, the first in the West.
Invincible relying on the Azure Dragon Demon Body.
Top in combat strength in the West.
Yet he had died, perished under such Replenishment Technique.
Venerable Peach Blossom’s prowess indeed fearsome...
For a moment, the oppressive aura circulated among the people.
Even Zhong Heng felt enormous pressure.
Venerable Peach Blossom’s plan failed, and he took the brunt.
If Venerable Peach Blossom with Divinity Transformation Cultivation came for revenge, he would be the first.
However...
There was still one plan left.
"True Immortal heritage..."
Not the missing or deceased True Immortals’ heritage, but heritage from a True Immortal still living.
With heritage gained, one became a True Immortal Disciple.
Even Divinity Transformation Cultivators dared not touch a True Immortal Disciple.
In front of Zhong Heng lay an opportunity.
Five Elements True Immortal!
Zhong Heng could not help recalling the map he obtained...
"First, I must deduce the method to activate the map..."
