Divine King of Honour-Chapter 756 - 755: The Enemy of the Divine Demon Sect
His breath had completely vanished.
The people around him all revealed solemn expressions.
Could it be that Xu Nian had truly died?
"He's not dead, but his current state seems somewhat special. If I'm not mistaken, the attack contained in that spherical thunder just now was not so simple; it must have included a soul attack," said the Dark God Island Master.
"Soul attack?"
The people around were all surprised.
The power of that spherical thunder was already fierce enough, yet it unexpectedly contained a soul attack.
If that was the case, even peak powerhouses at the Zifu Stage might not be able to withstand it.
And just now, the Dark God Island Master had actually said,
Xu Nian had suffered such an attack and hadn't died.
This filled them with great astonishment.
Was Xu Nian's life really that tenacious?
...
At this moment, Xu Nian kept sinking.
His mind had entirely submerged into the Mud Ball Palace.
A moment ago, a terrifying soul attack surged within the spherical thunder.
Had the Wordless Heavenly Scripture within Xu Nian's body not automatically activated its protective ability in that instant, shielding his entire soul,
he might have already perished both in body and Tao by now.
After all, even the Heavenly Gang Pearl in Xu Nian's Mud Ball Palace could not fend off that fearsome attack.
"That was close!"
Xu Nian sighed silently in his heart.
In that instant, a light character appeared, shattering the terrifying soul attack.
However, as a result, the light character also shattered.
This also meant that Xu Nian had used up another light character.
"How peculiar, this Wordless Heavenly Scripture, what exactly is the function of this golden light character?" Xu Nian mused to himself.
However, he was unable to grasp it and eventually had to resign.
To uncover the secrets of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture, he would need to know its origin.
Perhaps if he had the chance to meet the previous Divine River Palace Master in the future, he could ask and learn the truth.
"Buzz!"
His mind returned.
Only then did Xu Nian realize that his body had been severely injured.
"Damn, my internal organs are a mess, I was almost roasted alive," Xu Nian cursed under his breath.
He had no choice but to try and mobilize the true essence within his body to repair his injuries.
Fortunately, Xu Nian's true essence was now far more powerful than before in terms of healing his flesh.
Thus, his injuries were quickly suppressed.
"Buzz!"
Xu Nian burst forth from the sea and streaked back to Dark God Island.
Seeing Xu Nian fly back, everyone let out a heavy sigh of relief.
Even Hong Xiang's eyes settled down, and though her expression did not fluctuate much, there was a sense of immense relief in her heart.
In truth, she did not harbor feelings for Xu Nian.
He couldn't help but feel that Xu Nian's talent in Formation was too astonishing.
If he were to die just like that, it truly would be a great pity.
"Xu Nian, congratulations on your breakthrough to the Zifu Realm. I didn't expect you to also have the blessing of dragon veins and to possess such high strength right after the breakthrough. It is indeed rare in this world," the Dark God Island Master said with a smile.
"It's all thanks to Uncle-Master's Token. Without it, and the Spiritual Jade Fruits it allowed me to obtain, I could never have broken through to the Zifu Realm so quickly," Xu Nian replied with a smile.
Without those four Spiritual Jade Fruits, his strength after the breakthrough would have at best been comparable to someone at the Zifu Middle-Stage.
Even with his Talent Phenomenon triggered, it would only amount to Late-stage Zifu power.
Thus, the effects of the Spiritual Jade Fruits were clearly evident.
Moreover, as his cultivation progressed, the benefits of the Spiritual Jade Fruits would continue to manifest.
In other words, no matter which realm Xu Nian would break through to in the future, he would always be far ahead of his peers.
"Haha, you deserved it, but I am also very relieved to see you achieve this. Now I can rest assured when leaving Hong Xiang with you and enter secluded cultivation," the Dark God Island Master laughed heartily.
"Uncle-Master, rest assured, I will definitely ensure the safety of Senior Sister Hong Xiang," Xu Nian immediately responded.
The Dark God Island Master nodded.
"Come, Xu Nian, come with me, I have a few words to say to you," the Dark God Island Master said, suddenly serious.
After speaking, he summoned Xu Nian to his side.
Then, the two walked side by side along the main pathway of the Dark God Island.
"Uncle-Master, are you going to tell me about Master's situation?" Xu Nian guessed, initiating the conversation.
The Dark God Island Master smiled faintly, "You guessed right. I wanted to talk about Bai Tianhan. The reason I tested you all with the Formation challenge was actually a bet I made with your master. He said you could comprehend the basics of Formation within three days."
Hearing this, Xu Nian finally understood.
He had been puzzled before.
The Dark God Island Master had set them to grasp the basics of Formation and yet only gave them three days.
For someone proficient in Formation, this was obviously a very unreasonable demand.
Now hearing what the Dark God Island Master said, Xu Nian understood.
That challenge had been set specifically for him.
"Uncle-Master, can you tell me where my Master is now, and how he is?" Xu Nian asked.
Ever since he parted ways with the Qin Family, he had not seen Bai Tianhan again.
But Xu Nian knew that his master's life could not have been easy.
"That's right, your master is indeed a fated person, burdened with his Sect's blood feud and living in great agony. As for his current whereabouts, I do not know either; that's something you'll have to investigate after entering the Cultivation World," the Dark God Island Master said with a sigh. ƒreewebɳovel.com
"Then, Uncle-Master, can you tell me who my Master's enemies are? Why was the Divine Demon Sect destroyed?" Xu Nian urgently asked.
"Actually, even if I don't tell you, you will find out once you enter the Cultivation World. The ones who annihilated your Divine Demon Sect, aside from those Independent Earth Immortals, were the Four Great Sects. Essentially, the entire Cultivation World is the enemy of your Divine Demon Sect," the Dark God Island Master explained.
"The Four Great Sects?" Xu Nian's eyes suddenly darkened.
He had not expected that the Four Great Sects had been stained with the blood of the Divine Demon Sect.
"Young man, don't act rashly. The foundation of the Four Great Sects is something beyond your imagination. Your master, with Cultivation rivaling that of an Earth Immortal, was still unable to seek vengeance. So, until you have absolute power, it's best you learn to be patient," the Dark God Island Master advised.
"What was the reason the Divine Demon Sect was destroyed then?" Xu Nian asked again.
"It is said to have been for an Immortal Treasure, but the specifics remain unknown," the Dark God Island Master replied, shaking his head.
Xu Nian clenched his fists tightly.
He had promised Master Bai Tianhan to restore the Divine Demon Sect to its former glory.
Thus, his mission entering the Cultivation World was not a light one, aside from finding Murong Xue.
"By the way, Uncle-Master, could you list the Independent Earth Immortals who fought against the Divine Demon Sect?" Xu Nian asked, his eyes steeling with resolve.
The Dark God Island Master looked at Xu Nian and finally nodded his head.
"Young man, these are Earth Immortal Experts, don't blame me for not warning you," the Dark God Island Master said as he waved his sleeve and a Jade Scroll appeared in his hand.
"Thank you, Uncle-Master. I'll heed your advice. But one day, those people will pay the price," Xu Nian said, gripping the Jade Scroll, his eyes filled with Killing Intent.
