Chapter 285: The Galaxy Sect’s Defense Array

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Skygold Protectorate Lord had no plans to enter the Galaxy Sect. Huan Mingzi and Xian Ze had to head out of the sect and bow down before him personally. “Huan Mingzi would like to pay his respects to the Skygold Protectorate Lord.”

The Skygold Protectorate Lord smiled. “Both our surnames are Huan, but you are lagging behind a little. Given your gifts, you are indeed being limited by staying in the Small Central World. Why don’t you come to the Skygold Protectorate with me?”

Huan Mingzi cupped his fists again. “Thank you for believing in my abilities, Protectorate Lord, but I am already used to staying here.”

He was well aware of what the Skygold Protectorate Lord meant. Although he was very close to attaining the actual Domain Realm, he was the least respected person amongst the three Pavilion Lords of the Prophecy Pavilion. After all, everyone knew that he would never get the chance to attain the Domain Realm in his entire life.

His lifespan was almost up. He was currently weak in both Qi and blood, so even if he finally gained insight into the real Domain Realm, he wouldn’t have the ability to break into it.

Therefore, although there were three Pavilion Lords in the Prophecy Pavilion, only Huan Mingzi had to spend his time wandering outside and handling issues, while the First and Second Pavilion Lords got to enjoy the fruits of his labor.

“Chang Xiao from the Prophecy Island would like to pay his respects to the Skygold Protectorate Lord. I hope I am not too late,” said a coarse, bold voice before a man in gray clothes appeared.

When the Skygold Protectorate Lord saw the man, his eyes twinkled and he laughed. “Pavilion Lord Chang, I have not seen you in only a short time, yet you have already attained the fourth stage of the Domain Realm. Congratulations, congratulations…”

Although the Skygold Protectorate Lord was congratulating him, he was also very surprised at the same time. He was at the seventh-stage Domain Realm, so he knew that it was very difficult to advance through the stages of the Domain Realm. Chang Xiao had been stuck at the third-stage Domain Realm for many years, so he must have had an incredible encounter if he had been able to advance to the fourth stage so suddenly. It was particularly difficult to advance through the Domain Realm in the Small Central World. He was at the seventh-stage Domain Realm, so he naturally didn’t fear Chang Xiao. However, it was also quite impossible to overpower Chang Xiao.

“Thank you, Brother Changzhu. I pale in comparison to you.” Chang Xiao smiled and cupped his fists again.

Chang Xiao had addressed the Skygold Protectorate Lord first before he moved on to Huan Changzhu. This was how he poised himself. He was not afraid of the Skygold Protectorate Lord. Actually, based on what he had said, he considered himself to be on par with the Skygold Protectorate Lord. The Skygold Protectorate Lord didn’t say anything. As long as this didn’t result in any conflicts of interest between him and Chang Xiao, he wouldn’t mind. Given his current level, the only thing he wanted was to enter the Immortal World.

After Chang Xiao greeted the Skygold Protectorate Lord, he suddenly turned towards Huan Mingzi and said, “Brother Huan, we are both Pavilion Lords of the Prophecy Pavilion. This is between us brothers. In the past, Yue Jian betrayed the Prophecy Pavilion and got both of us kicked out. Now that I am in charge of the Prophecy Pavilion again, why don’t you come with me? Besides, you have a share of the Prophecy Pavilion.”

Huan Mingzi replied coldly, “Pavilion Lord Chang, you are too polite. I have nothing to do with the Prophecy Pavilion anymore.”

He had already seen through Chang Xiao. Chang Xiao only wanted him to go back so that he would continue to slog for him.

Chang Xiao’s expression changed. He was about to continue speaking, when Genesis Sect Elder Qin Ku suddenly said, “Skygold Protectorate Lord, you are our guest. The Small Central World doesn’t have anything to offer, but we did coincidentally discover a few supreme-grade spirit meridians. If you don’t mind, I would like to give you the supreme-grade spirit meridians that we picked up.”

Xian Ze’s cultivation level was the lowest. Thus, he could not stand this any longer when he heard this shameless speech.

“Ha ha! I have seen faceless people, but I have never seen anyone with a face like a pig’s ass like you!” Di Jiu laughed out loud, interrupting Xian Ze.

Before the Skygold Protectorate Lord had come, Huan Mingzi had wanted to see Di Jiu as soon as possible. However, now that he had been hoping that Di Jiu would not return, he had unfortunately decided to return.

When Di Jiu spoke, the Skygold Protectorate Lord’s and Chang Xiao’s expressions changed slightly. Their Spiritual Force had been guarding the space around the Galaxy Sect’s encampment. Therefore, they hadn’t detected Di Jiu’s arrival. Or maybe, they hadn’t detected that Di Jiu had been around all this while.

“Di Jiu, you sneaked an attack on Yue Henghe from the Genesis Sect on the Small Central Planet. The disappearance of the Genesis Sect Master was also part of your evil plan. How dare you show up!” shouted Qin Ku harshly.

“You are Di Jiu?” a big, tall and bald cultivator who stood beside Qin Ku asked very calmly as he looked at Di Jiu.

“And who are you, kid?” Di Jiu was impolite to the man because he felt that the people who came from the Galaxy Sect were up to no good. This man was a seventh-stage True Form, yet his cultivation level was still fluctuating, which meant that he had attained the seventh-stage True Form Realm not too long ago.

The bald man replied coldly, “I am not a kid. I am Peng Yun, the Grand Elder of the Genesis Sect.”

“Young Master Red Embellishment, we meet again.” Chang Xiao chuckled. He was well aware of Di Jiu’s strength. Di Jiu had killed Yue Jian, who had been at the first-stage Domain Realm. This implied that Di Jiu’s abilities were approximately equal to someone who was at the first-stage Domain Realm.

He considered Di Jiu a frightening individual. Although he was sure that Di Jiu hadn’t entered the Domain Realm, he had been able to kill a first-stage Domain Realm expert, which was appalling.

Di Jiu took one look at Chang Xiao and said, “Not bad. You have made great improvements in your cultivation. It’s no wonder that you have come to the Galaxy Sect. However, you should be aware that I am someone who drinks with friends but fights with foes.”

As soon as he spoke, Di Jiu looked at Qin Ku. He had wanted to kill him for a long time, yet he had finally gotten the chance today. “Old fogey, were you the shameless person who wanted to extract the Galaxy Sect’s spirit meridians?”

“The Galaxy Sect’s spirit meridians? Ha ha ha! I have lived for many years in the Small Central World, yet this is the first time that I’m hearing that the Qin Qian Mountain Range belongs to the Galaxy Sect. I am definitely going to extract the Qin Qian Mountain Range today. What can you do to me?” Qin Ku shouted forcefully. He had gone there that day to exterminate the Galaxy Sect, no matter what.

Extracting the Galaxy Sect’s spirit meridians for the Skygold Protectorate Lord was only a bribe that must have motivated him to go there. Qin Ku took the initiative to do this so that the Skygold Protectorate Lord would not ruin his reputation.

“Extract it if you dare,” Di Jiu replied coldly.

Before Qin Ku could speak, Peng Yun said, “Elder Qin Ku, since this is something he picked up, go ahead and take it! Why stand on ceremony? I will lash out at whoever dares to move.”

As Qin Ku went over to extract the spirit meridian, Peng Yun kept staring at Di Jiu. If Di Jiu dared to strike, he wouldn’t hesitate to retaliate.

Huan Mingzi and Xian Ze’s faces turned green. They knew that if they dared to hinder Qin Ku, all hell would break loose. Even if they didn’t stop him, everybody else would make a move once the eight supreme-grade spirit meridians were extracted.

Di Jiu didn’t stop Qin Ku. He simply took out an array flag and sent it directly into the sky.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! A booming sound rippled through the sky as the whole space seemed to vibrate. The Skygold Protectorate Lord immediately stepped back a few thousand feet. So did Chang Xiao and the others. No matter how meticulously they permeated the area with their Spiritual Force, they could not find the source of the booming sound.

As this sound continued, the encampment of the Galaxy Sect became blurrier and blurrier. Suddenly, a continuous stream of Spiritual Aura mist appeared and the entire Galaxy Sect became invisible.

“This is a sect’s Defense Array?” exclaimed the Skygold Protectorate Lord, who had seen many things before. This was not just a simple sect Defense Array—it was a top-notch one. Nobody, not even someone from the True Dominion, could set up such a Defense Array.

Chang Xiao and the others were staring in awe at the Galaxy Sect, which became obscure as three big words appeared clearly in the sky—The Galaxy Sect… These three words had an aura as vast as several galaxies combined.

Then, Di Jiu said loudly, “Starting today, the Galaxy Sect will officially be known as the Galaxy Master Sect. I, Di Jiu, will assume the position of its first Sect Master temporarily. In the future, you will have to use your identification cards to enter and leave the sect. Anyone who attacks the sect will be considered our greatest enemy.”

“Okay, okay…” Huan Mingzi laughed out loud. He wasn’t as well-versed in the Array Dao as Di Jiu, but he could still feel the prowess of Di Jiu’s sect Defense Array. Once this Defense Array was activated, even a group of True Form experts would find it difficult to overcome it.

“Where is Genesis Sect Elder Qin Ku?” Peng Yun suddenly felt that something was wrong. When Di Jiu had activated the sect’s Defense Array, everyone had stepped backwards. Only Qin Ku, who had extracted the spirit meridians, was missing.

“Maybe your Sect Elder came across a huge pile of spirit meridians,” Di Jiu said coldly. “He will turn up soon. I didn’t expect that one could find spirit meridians at the doorstep of a sect. I heard that the Genesis Sect was a large sect. Maybe I should try searching one of these days and see if I come across any treasures…”

Suddenly, a bloody mist exploded from the Defense Array and Qin Ku’s tattered body was thrown out. His ring was already gone.

Peng Yun, Ao Huang and Yan Xuanxiang felt their scalps go numb. They had just seen Di Jiu activate the Galaxy Master Sect’s Defense Array. Within a short span of time, Qin Ku, a fifth-stage True Form expert, had already been reduced into a bloody mist. Even his soul had dispersed.

However, they hadn’t seen Di Jiu, Huan Mingzi or Xian Ze strike. They hadn’t witnessed any part of Qin Ku get killed either. How scary was this Defense Array?

If they had stayed in the Galaxy Master Sect instead of leaving, then when Di Jiu had activated the Galaxy Master Sect’s Defense Array, wouldn’t they have been…

They didn’t dare finish that thought.
