Spirit Vessel - Chapter 744

Chapter 744: 744




The ruin was an independent space with many seals, the destination for many Buddhist pilgrims .

“Yun Yang, this is Heartlost Pagoda . It used to be a city that spanned thousands of miles . Alas, nothing is left after the storm ten thousand years ago . People and places destroyed . The end of this golden age signaled the start of a dark era . Ninety-nine percent of all the treasures have been excavated . ”

The tenth lord, Lu Fengxian, stood on top of a twin-headed python seven meters in the air . He wore a black robe, looking vigorous and mighty . His eyes, in particular, forced others to lower their head .

Another wore the same outfit with the addition of a black hat walked behind him .

“Hall Lord, this place still isn’t ashes after ten thousand years? There are still so many ruins left with Buddhist affinity . ” Yun Yang replied .

Each broken piece in the ruins still had a glow to them . The broken statues maintained the sounds of Buddhas .

Lu Fengxian smiled and said: “The age of Buddhism is over but this place still produces many Buddhist Enlightened Beings, it’s really incredible . These beings would come here for their pilgrimage and leave their dao and enlightenment . In fact, breaking a single tile here is difficult if one is not at the Giant level . Plus, destroying a shrine here can result in bad karma . ”

Yun Yang’s eyes narrowed as he thrust his spear with lightning speed, piercing through a red wall in the process .

“Boom!” Dust scattered everywhere .

He pulled back and nodded: “My thrust earlier can destroy a mountain outside . Here, it can only make a hole on this wall . You’re right, many monks have come here in the last ten millennia to protect this place . ”

“Yun Yang, don’t do that again or you might enrage the protector here . That’s death . ” Fengxian grimaced and said .



“Protector?”

“Yes, maybe one or two Enlightened Monks might still stay in this place, choosing to guard it for the rest of their life . ”

Fengxian then leaped on top of a high vantage point to look towards the great hall . He saw flashes and explosions along with chaotic moving figures . Formations would also explode occasionally .

Yun Yang did the same and said: “It’s the famous characters from Earthchild, Solar’s Wu Yangsheng, Myriad Laws’ Chen Mojin, Sun Moon’s Li Xingtian, and Geezer Liu, all top experts . ”

“You’ve fought them before?”

“No, but that Wu Yangsheng is at the eighth-level in less than a hundred years . That’s about the same as the other historical geniuses . ” Yun Yang shook his head .

“Chen Mojin can do a twenty-sevenfold attack before reaching the eighth level . He’s not at the historical level but can actually be stronger than a few . ”

“Li Xingtian… this person is crafty and good at hiding his actual abilities . His talents might be inferior compared to the first two but in an actual fight, I would bet on him over them . Need I say more about Geezer Liu? That’s a high elder under White Moon Messenger, he’s been a Super Giant for a while now and is probably here because of the messenger’s daughter . ”


“Yun Yang, you can also reach the eighth level within a century, Wu Yangsheng can’t compare to you . ” Fengxian disagreed .

Yun Yang didn’t act falsely humble either: “Yangsheng doesn’t understand the bigger picture and only cares about speed . His foundation is unstable and he won’t be more than a peak eighth-level without a great fortune . ”



“On the other hand, you have accumulated your foundation for a century longer and have the potential to reach the Enlightened Being realm . ” Xingtian had a high evaluation of his disciple . The guy had a mindset far exceeding regular geniuses .

“I’m more interested in this Yi Zhenfeng compared to these two . Does the court actually have someone so capable? These four masters can’t suppress him after one thousand moves . ” Yun Yang stated .

Xingtian nodded in agreement: “True, an exceptional genius indeed but we have at least four guys like him in Senluo Temple, three in Mount Potala, probably two or so in the four clans . The Dao Gate and Wanxiang Pagoda might have some too . It’s not too surprising that the court would have one like him . ”

“How long can you last against these four?” He asked .

“The exact number is difficult but half a day should be fine . ” Yun Yang contemplated .

“Go if you wish to fight against Yi Zhenfeng . There’s no need for fairness here, let’s see how long he can last against five masters . ” Fengxian nodded .

However, he didn’t join just yet because others have taken the initiative - three heretical lords hidden in the shadows .

They have made their way into the shrine now, shrouded with a corrosive aura of death .

“Those are corpses, about as strong as Super Giants . Who can control three of them at the same time?” Yun Yang stopped and tried to find the corpse controller .

Lu Fengxian remained calm as his eyes flashed with wisdom, seemingly capable of seeing every corner in this ruin . He finally stopped at a broken pagoda and saw an old man dressed in a purple uniform . He held a corpse-control bell while standing there with a mighty aura .

He also stared back at Fengxian with a sneer on his face .



“The cave lord of Violetsea, Violetsea King . ” Fengxian withdrew his gaze without pursuing the matter since they had no feud between them .

Plus, this person was extremely strong . He didn’t know if he would be able to defeat the guy .

“I thought Violetsea had been destroyed by the army . ”

“Some managed to escape, it’s not that easy to completely wipe out a corpse cave that has lasted for thousands of years . ”

“Ah, so this king most likely thinks Yi Zhenfeng is a pawn of the court so this is an act of revenge . ” Yun Yang deduced .

“Let’s make him owe us a favor then . ” Fengxian smiled and turned his gaze towards the great hall .

***

This was definitely a shocking battle . If it were happening outside, it would reduce hundreds of miles into nothing but scorched earth .

Wu Yangsheng’s eight beasts turned into a massive one with sharp fangs and crystal eyes, a shape similar to that of a dragon-tiger . It had a primal power that ravaged the spatial fabrics .

Chen Mojin’s plates continued to unleash twenty-sevenfold attacks just like falling meteors .

Li Xingtian and the protector continued using “Sun and Moon” . They changed the momentum of heaven and earth with the sun and moon rising and descending . This added immense pressure to Feiyun .

The four were special; one in ten million . Thus, their combined effort was impressive indeed .

The spirit treasures stolen by Feiyun before have been broken by them . Only the second-ranked Dao Pagoda remained intact . However, this second-ranked treasure wasn’t good enough anymore . His punches did a better job .

“Boom!” Suddenly, three figures wrapped in cloth and haunted by spirits joined the fray . They have been refined for many years so they were extremely efficient in battle .

Just one punch was enough to create a true dragon spanning more than one hundred meters - this was the force of one dragon .

Only a few could tell that they were battle corpses; most would confuse them for heretical lords .

Feiyun didn’t retreat at all against the seven . Due to their extreme speed, they left remnant images all over the sky . It was as if a thousand cultivators were fighting .

“Rumble!” Feiyun’s speed continuously increased like a dragon . His left hand possessed the power of an evil dragon; his right hand contained the might of the myriad beasts . This allowed him to fight evenly against his foes .

Meanwhile, the three girls were slack-jawed in the shrine, not knowing what to think . They thought they were watching a legend and hoped that Feiyun would be able to sweep through the seven masters to establish his dominance .

“I heard the sisters back in the sect talk about how tough Wu Yangsheng is all the time, that he’s a supreme genius . I guess he’s no big deal compared to Feiyun who is only twenty . I will have to teach those girls once I get back . ” Liu Ruixin looked quite innocent but spoke as if she was an old man .

Mu Xirou wasn’t as optimistic: “Fighting against four was tough already, he’ll lose quickly against seven . Master Zhi Zang still needs another hour to heal completely . He might not last for this long, plus, stronger masters might join too . ”

The girls’ souls were in Feiyun’s possession right now . If Feiyun were to die, those strands would be destroyed too . That’s why they sounded worried about him but in actuality, they were more worried for themselves .
