History’s Number 1 Founder - Chapter 1440

Chapter 1440: 1440

This tremor surprised even Heavenly Born Holy Man . Looking at Mount Baiyun’s direction, his gaze was full of curiosity and bemusement .

Chu Yang and Tang Jun were the same . Then they discovered that Luo Qingwu’s expression was somewhat odd .

“Fellow Luo?” Chu Yang said, after a moment of hesitation . Luo Qingwu let out a long sigh and said, “not only Mount Baiyun, but also over at the Barren Expanses, there were disturbances . The two events are correlated and no mere coincidence .

Chu Yang and Tang Jun both frowned, as Luo Qingwu thought to herself, “so this is what master was talking about . But why…”

She snapped out of it, looked at Chu Yang, then at Tang Jun, and said evenly, “this development arises from junior Tian Jin slaying Great Void Sect follower, Chen Xingyu . ”

“What?!” Chu Yang and Tang Jun exclaimed upon hearing this, as the both of them were shocked .

The both of them are calm and decisive men, who would have even been unfazed by an avalanche, but right now, they were surprised by what they heard .

The junior Tian Jin whom Luo Qingwu mentioned is Zhou Yuncong, who is familiar to the both of them . He was as famous as Tang Jun in Celestial Sect of Wonders’ second generation .

Although the motive for Zhou Yuncong to vanquish Chen Xingyu was unknown and the process was unclear, but they were not especially surprised by the outcome of it .

Zhou Yuncong, an elite in Celestial Sect of Wonders’ second generation, one of the top three in combat and spellcasting . In present day, not many cultivators in the same Immortal Soul Avatar stage could put up a fight against him . Moreover, most of them were from his clan .

Zhou Xingyu, with an extreme Yin body, and a pureblood Great Void successor, was widely recognized as the most outstanding cultivator of his generation in Great Void Sect .

But the act of Zhou Yuncong slaying Chen Xingyu causing such a huge commotion really perplexed Chu Yang and Tang Jun .

Afterall, both Zhou Yuncong and Chen Xingyu, despite being very powerful, were limited by the fact they were at just Immortal Soul Avatar stage . They were not Vipralopa stage, or at an even higher stage .

That was why it was so unexpected for Chu Yang and Tang Jun .

Compared to this, the reason behind why Chen Xingyu would suddenly fight with Zhou Yuncong, or how this brightest star of Great Void Sect just perished like that, all seemed rather insignificant .

The cause of the fight and how Zhou Yuncong slayed Chen Xingyu could be investigated and discussed later .

The consequence of their battle, causing the big rift in the heaven and earth, was the top priority right now .

It was not in Chu Yang place to ask about this directly . Tang Jun asked Luo Qingwu through telepathy, “ma’am, what’s going on?”

Luo Qingwu said, “the disturbance there is related to the one at Mount Baiyun . I’m afraid all these are part of a big scheme . ”

After finishing her sentence, Luo Qingwu paused briefly, then continued, “not to worry . Although the development was unexpected, it’s within master’s control . It’s just a bit difficult for myself to get ahold of the situation . ”

Simultaneously, in the Barren Expanses’ realm of the demons, Luo Qingwu’s Soul-Imprinted Avatar said to herself, “so this is what happened…”

Looking at a distance, the still shattered void and heaven and earth told a story of the great battle that took place here just a while ago . A duel between two Immortal Soul Avatar cultivators .

A big fight like this made a mess in the surrounding areas in the Barren Expanses .

But compared to the remnants of war, what more attention grabbing was a straight pillar of light .

It soared towards the sky and pierced through the atmosphere, disappearing into the infinite void and was then nowhere to be seen .

Shockingly that light pillar was half black and half white . Within the black half of the light pillar, there was a faint figure . It was a man with handsome facial features, gentle and scholarly, but there was an underlying coldness in his expression .

While on the white half if the light pillar, there was a levitating teenager, with an expression of indifference, but he was visibly shocked as he stared at his enemy ahead . It was Celestial Sect of Wonders’ second generation disciple – Zhou Yuncong .

Naturally, the man before him was Chen Xingyu, only that during the battle previously, Zhou Yuncong has completely incinerated Chen Xingyu’s Immortal Soul .

It was only because of the sudden appearance of this humongous light pillar and under the envelope of the light, Chen Xingyu’s Immortal Soul was temporarily suspended .

He and Zhou Yuncong stared at each other . The even and tranquility in his gaze betrayed a mixture of colors . There seemed to be regret, liberation, pleasure, all contradicting one another but all appearing in his gaze at once .

Luo Qingwu looked at Chen Xingyu and fell silent .

Although his presence was slowly taken over by the glow of Celestial Sect of Wonders, but he was widely regarded to be Great Void Sect’s younger generation’s most powerful . Besides the pureblood descendants of Celestial Sect of Wonders, in the entire world, not many other Immortal Soul Avatar stage cultivators could hold a candle to him .

Not counting Shi Xingyun due to special circumstances, others who could confidently defeat Chen Xingyu include Luo Qingwu herself, as well as her ally, Chu Yang . Even Xiao Zhener, who had been hard at work for many years and learning much from Xiao Yan, would not be perfectly confident in a fight with Chen Xingyu .

He was the sole disciple of Great Void Sect’s current leader, Lin Daohan . He was also the strongest of his generation . Aside from another Great Void Sect new generation follower named Guo Chaoyang, nobody else in his generation even comes close to him .

The future of Chen Xingyu was undoubtedly very long and bright . His rise mirrored that of Lin Daohan’s own, many many years ago .

Barring exceptionally bizarre circumstances, he was destined to become a core presence in the new generation of Great Void Sect followers .

From when he was young, he had been nurtured with the end goal in mind – as the successor to the sect’s leader .

But this unbelievably gifted individual was vanquished today by Zhou Yuncong and Luo Qingwu witnessed first hand the process of it .

Cheng Xingyu suddenly appeared in the Barren Lands and revealed an information that Zhou Yongcong could not resist, and asked him out alone .

Even few people in Celestial Sect of Wonders knew that before Zhou Yuncong was brought to the Sect by Zhu Yi and Yang Qing, he went through great trauma – everybody in his hometown was murdered, leaving him as the sole survivor . To date, nobody had any leads on the case .

When Zhu Yi and Yang Qing went back there to investigate, the place was already completed destroyed and the truth was nowhere to be found .

This event had always been the worst nightmare for Zhou Yuncong in years to come . Everytime he left the Sect to the outside world, he would try to ask around . However, all his efforts had been in vain .

But today, unexpectedly, he got a truth that was much too shocking .

“I did it . ”

That was Cheng Xingyu’s reply to Zhou Yuncong .

It was not necessarily a bluff, as he could provide many details, which matched that of Zhou Yuncong’s own memories . And these things, unless one was present at the scene, would be impossible to fabricate .

What happened afterwards needs no further explanation .

Luo Qingwu looked at Cheng Xingyu, whose Divine Soul was seemingly fading into the black half of the light pillar . She felt that his thoughts were completely concealed from her .

“Initially, I thought that Great Void Sect’s followers meant to harm Yuncong . Master asked me to look after Yuncong and even had aunt Xuan Li follow him, to ensure nothing was to go wrong . However, nobody knew that if Cheng Xingyu died in the hands of Yuncong, something like this could also happen!”

“Or rather, no matter which one of those two dies first, as long as they are killed by each other, something like this would happen?” a thousand questions lingered in Luo Qingwu’s mind . “But Cheng Xingyu was clearly no match for Yuncong . Yet he dared to rendezvous with Yuncong alone, additionally, angering Yuncong . This kind of behavior was tantamount to suicide .

“”What was the reason that compelled him to resort to this? If it was for Great Void Sect and his master Lin Daohan’s order, why did it seem like he did it absolutely out of his own will, as if he was glad this happened? Even the regret he had was because he eventually lost to Yuncong, instead of mourning over his own death?”

Luo Qingwu aside, after the fire of rage extinguished in Zhou Yuncong, he was also very puzzled . Looking at Cheng Xingyu, there was no telling what was going on in his head .

Clearly, Cheng Xingyu did not intend to explain . Well, in his current state, even if he wanted to, it would not have been possible . The hologram of his divine soul slowly vanished . A second before his face disappeared, he revealed a wicked smile .

Zhou Yuncong frowned and focused on the light pillar that enveloped him and Cheng Xingyu . It would seem that therein lies the key to the problem .

As soon as the light pillar surrounded him, Zhou Yuncong felt that even with his ultimate level spell, he could not break free .

The half black and half white pillar of light soared through the clouds . Besides where Zhou Yuncong and Cheng Xingyu were at in the Barren Expanses, at the same time, in the Divine Lands, clouds and mist surrounding Mount Baiyun dispersed and another colossal light pillar shot up towards to the sky .

That light pillar was also half black, half white, and exactly the same as the one which engulfed Zhou Yuncong in the Barren Expanses .

At the peak of Mount Baiyun, Kuang Heng and other Great Void Sect elders surrounded the black and white pillar of light, with a slightly thrilled expression .

Although Heavenly Born Holy Man ravaged the Sect just now, but the morale of Great Void Sect followers were high . The previous commotion seemed all too trivial now .

Qing Ning Holy Man let out a deep breath, and said, “elder Taiyi’s prediction was accurate, our spell worked”

Kuang Heng said, “it’s too early to celebrate . That was barely the first step . Whether success would ensue, or things would pan out as we expected, is still unknown . What happens next is anyone’s guess . We must not let our guard down . ”

Everyone around nodded unanimously . Kuang Heng stared at the black and white pillar of light, then turned around to look at a coldly woman, who was a fellow Great Void Sect elder – Yu Yuan Holy Man .

Yu Yuan Holy Man then nodded her head and without saying a word, used one hand to cast a spell, which changed constantly, while raising the other hand to expedite a spell tag .

The spell tag flew up, landing into the black and white pillar of light . Immediately, a hologram of a person appeared within the light pillar, fluttering continuously, fading into and out of existence .

Two light pillars rose in the Greater Worlds, as if extending endlessly into space, disturbing even the heavens above .

Consequently, between the heaven and earth, layers of light seemed to shine . Those radiant pathways originated from the Spirit Sea .

In that moment, Spirit Sea, which was tightly bonded to the Greater Worlds, seemed to be even closer . It was as if the divide between the Spirit Sea and Greater Worlds were thinning out and that the two worlds are fusing into one .
