Chapter 636: Robbing the Energy Veins
Translator: StackThatCoin Editor: Hitesh_
A hazy mist veiled the ocean, with the moon shining brightly up above, smearing the rippling water surface silver . Some aquatic creatures were floating in the ocean and quietly absorbing the essence of the moon and stars, dreaming about gaining their sentience someday and becoming demons .
The island where Wu Qi and Princess Zhang Le had constructed their cave abode was taken over, now occupied by a few elite junior disciples of Yuan Hua Sect . All the restrictive spells were destroyed, and the immortal energy veins Wu Qi had hidden were exposed . Nowadays, the island had become one of the best cave abodes that the sect owned, and only those who received favor and had the best innate talents were allowed to come here .
But, with the ringing of the alarm, all the disciples who were meditating in the cave abode had rushed back to Green Cliff Mountain, leaving behind only a few servants and apprentice Daoists . The defensive barrier on the island had also been activated, though it was far weaker than the one Wu Qi had constructed in the past .
After giving the island a brief glance, the couple exchanged a smile . Pointing at the ocean with one finger, Wu Qi said leisurely, "Why don't you do it, Zi Xuan? Your divine ability is perfect for a job like this, and it's not so convenient for me to use my chaotic energy here!"
The princess nodded cheerily . She rolled up her sleeves and a gleam of five-color swirled around her fingertips . As she let out a sonorous cry, dozens of colorful specks shot whistling out . Suddenly, plumes of blue smoke and cloud gushed out of the rifts on the screen-shaped island, turning into a thick layer of cloud that enveloped everything . Rapid explosions rang out as the colorful specks shot into the layer of clouds .
Hundreds of feet tall, massive waves suddenly rose and swept across the surface of the ocean . The blue clouds that protected the island were ripped and shattered to pieces, the mountains on the island were cut in half at the middle, and boulders were hurtled tens of miles away in all directions . The sudden explosion terrified those aquatic creatures, causing them to let out sharp and unpleasant cries while fleeing desperately into the distance .
The few servants and apprentice Daoists guarding the island screamed in fear as they bolted out of the cave abode, crawling and rolling along a flight of newly constructed stairs down to the beach, and quickly hiding under a big rock that looked safe . Wu Qi only gave them a brief glance, and was too lazy to pay them any heed . Reaching out his hand toward the ocean, he drew a circle in the air . With that, the rocking ocean calmed down instantly; the water surface thousands of miles in circumference looked as smooth as a mirror, with the reflection of the moon shining gently like a crystal .
After that, the princess chuckled as ten fine five colored divine rays shot out of her fingertips, streaking across the air like lightning and stabbing into the ocean surrounding the island . Before long, a deep rumbling began to echo from the depth of the ocean . The divine rays had pierced through the thick layer of rock and bound up the few large energy veins that passed under or around the island .
No ordinary Heaven Immortals had the ability or power to extract an underground energy vein . But, as Princess Zhang Le was cultivating the Primordial Dao of Divinity, a profound technique that matched the natural order, and with her cultivation base touching the Gold Immortal realm, every more she performed was blessed with a great power of nature . So, as soon as the divine rays made contact with the energy veins, they began to twist obediently and vigorously as if they were some pet dogs .
Most of these energy veins measured about a hundred miles in diameter and tens of thousands of miles in length . The largest one, which was also the primary energy vein, had its root at Green Cliff Mountain and stretched all the way into the ocean, spanning hundreds of thousands of miles . Therefore, when they moved, the ground shook violently as a result . Half of the planet experienced strong earthquakes; numerous mountains and hills collapsed and lands caved in, as many deep valleys rose to form new mountain ranges .
In just the fraction of a second, the landscape of half of the Green Cliff Planet had changed forever .
Blinding lights radiated from under the ocean while the air rang with faint dragon roars, and a terrible energy wave swept whistling across the void . The energy was so strong that it made even Wu Qi and Princess Zhang Le feel difficulty in breathing . If he had not restrained the ocean with a spell, they would have already been surrounded by hundreds of miles tall waves .
All of a sudden, the rock layer at the bottom of the ocean, tens of thousands of miles in circumference, shattered along with a deafening boom . Amidst a dreadful rumbling, a dozen energy veins leaped out from under the ground and soared high up into the sky .
The dozen energy veins, ranging from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of miles in length, and all measuring at least a hundred miles in diameter, flew into the sky like some colossal dragons . Flashing with strong light and looking hazy, these energy veins did not have physical shapes-they were entirely composed of highly compressed immortal energy . Vaguely, there were dozens of shadows that were shaped like dragons blinking inside each energy vein . They were actually the cores of the veins, and it was them who absorbed the natural energy and stored them under the ground, eventually forming the energy veins .
The five-colored divine ray was racing around the princess as she separated her palms and cried out softly, "We'll have half each . Let's quickly devour them!"
While laughing, Wu Qi slapped the back of his head with his right hand, and a giant hand shrouded in a towering dark mist rushed out of him . Upon making its appearance, the palm measuring ten thousand miles in circumference grabbed hold of a few energy veins, followed by a beam of chaotic light that shot out of Wu Qi's forehead, pulling them into his body . Suddenly wisps, of bright light radiated out of his entire body, and the interstitial world inside him started going through a tremendous transformation .
As soon as the few energy veins entered his body, they were sucked into the interstitial world, then quickly digested and transformed by the chaotic energy . In the blink of an eye, his interstitial world had expanded by at least a hundred folds, and the total amount of energy in the chaotic world had skyrocketed by ten thousand folds . Energy spread out tumbling in his body, then quickly transformed into chaotic energy and filled up his meridians .
