Chapter 1809: Chapter 917: The Holy Master Arrives! The Oppressive Might Descends (Part 2)
Compared to the tiny array breach Yun Gucheng managed to tear open with his burning life force last night, this golden light’s display was like a force that crushed everything before it, treating those powerful arrays as if they were nothing!
The golden light suddenly paused above the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall, revealing its true form—a command arrow, about palm-sized, entirely forged from gold, with numerous mysterious runes and patterns of the sun, moon, and stars carved upon its surface.
At the same time, on the top floor of the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall, a cosmic aura burst forth like a star ocean! Tantai Mingjing’s figure instantly appeared above the hall, growing with the wind into a grand statue towering a thousand feet high, surrounded by chaotic aura!
The statue held an ancient inkstone, as if carrying mountains and rivers in one hand, and pointed its other hand across the void towards the direction the golden light came from—exactly where Wanxiang Imperial City was located! The statue’s face was cold, its eyes brimming with overwhelming killing intent, as if it would unleash a thunderous strike at any moment!
An aged, mellow voice, yet with indisputable authority, slowly emerged from the golden command arrow, echoing across the world.
"Mr. Tantai, calm your anger.
I have not come here to intentionally provoke the authority of the Tantai family."
The voice paused slightly, then continued.
"It really is because, yesterday in Wanxiang Imperial City, your daughter and an Eastern Desolate Martial Artist joined forces to cripple the grandson of an elder of Myriad Phenomena Holy Land! This matter involves the reputation of the Holy Land and its rules, and I had no choice but to appear. I have come here for that Eastern Desolate Martial Artist—Gu Sheng!"
Right at the instant the old voice mentioned "Gu Sheng," an overwhelmingly powerful, forcefully condensed spiritual force pierced through layers of space and precisely descended, firmly locking onto Gu Sheng within the Quiet Room!
Gu Sheng’s eyes flashed with cold light, he snorted coldly.
In his Sea of Consciousness, the vast spiritual power that had been refined twice and had nearly become tangible, violently shook like an awakening giant dragon, bursting forth with an unyielding sharpness and fierce struggle!
"Buzz!"
The spiritual lock imposed by the Master of Myriad Phenomena across space was forcibly broken free by him! Though only a fleeting moment, and Gu Sheng’s complexion paled slightly, clearly uncomfortable, this action had already showcased the extraordinary nature of his spiritual power.
"Hmm?"
A slight sound of surprise came from within the golden command arrow, evidently unexpected that a Sect Realm warrior could break free of his spiritual lock.
The aged voice sounded again, carrying a hint of scrutiny.
"You are Gu Sheng? There are indeed some tricks, no wonder you could harm someone from my Holy Land."
Gu Sheng raised his head, calmly gazing at the hovering golden command arrow outside the window, his tone neither humble nor arrogant.
"East Desolation, Gu Sheng."
"Hmph!"
The sound from within the token carried slight anger, along with the boundless majesty of a Holy Realm being.
"I am the Master of Myriad Phenomena Holy Land! Gu Sheng, though you are merely a Sect Realm, when seeing this Holy Master, it is proper etiquette to kneel in welcome!"
Before the words finished, the golden command arrow’s light intensified, a pressure far more terrifying and heavy than the previous spiritual lock descended upon Gu Sheng like ten thousand mountains and vast star domains, causing rumbling oppression!
This time, it was not merely spiritual pressure but contained the cosmic laws of the Holy Realm!
Gu Sheng’s face changed abruptly, feeling the space all around him solidify, with endless pressure crushing from all directions, threatening to turn every inch of his bones and flesh to powder!
The Qi-blood originally surging like a river within him seemed to boil and rage under this pressure, as if about to break through his veins and meridians! His knees slightly bent, his body violently trembling out of control, and his bones emitted a burdened "creaking" sound, with even a trace of crimson blood seeping from the corner of his mouth!
The might of the Holy Realm was terrifying indeed! Even across the void, it was pressure no ordinary warrior could bear!
"Wanxiang! You go too far!"
Just as Gu Sheng was about to be completely crushed by this pressure, the towering giant statue above the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall roared in a thunderous shout! Exactly Tantai Mingjing!
He suddenly gestured with the hand holding the ancient inkstone towards the direction of the golden command arrow!
"Boom——!!!"
Though no direct energy collision occurred, the entire world’s rules seemed to be stirred and altered! An invisible, vast force emerged from nothing, like an intangible barrier, boldly clashing with the pressure imposed on Gu Sheng by the Master of Myriad Phenomena!
The two Holy Realm powerhouses engaged in an invisible confrontation across tens of thousands of miles of void!
Vroom——!
The grandeur and vast Tianyuan Emperor City subtly trembled at this moment, countless warriors raised their heads in shock, feeling the soul-chilling law fluctuations.
Gu Sheng suddenly felt the pressure on him like mountain tops ease significantly, though he still sensed the lingering threat, at least not the crushing sensation threatening to pulverize him.
Seizing the chance, he circulated his cultivation technique, forcibly suppressing the turbulent Qi-blood and steadied his posture.
Almost simultaneously, a surge of Qi Blood Power erupted from the core area of Tianyuan Emperor City like wolf smoke into the sky, stirring the winds and clouds! That Qi blood, so vigorous and fierce, was like a sun-shaped human!
Amid the swirling Qi-blood, it likewise revealed a grand figure towering a thousand feet! That was a burly warrior clad in black armor, muscular and explosive in strength!
His appearance was rugged, sharp eyes like an eagle, stifled in dominion and ferocity, maliciously stared at the golden command arrow, his voice like a clanging bell, shaking the surroundings.
"Old Wanxiang! Daring to act wild in my Tianyuan Emperor City, do you truly think my Heavenly Treasure Sacred Land is made of mud? If not retreat from my Tianyuan Emperor City, believe it or not, I will rally my troops now and sweep through your Myriad Phenomena Holy Land’s mountain gate!"
This was clearly a master-level being of Heavenly Treasure Sacred Land!
The voice from the golden command arrow paused slightly, revealing a hint of surprise due to the successive appearances of Tantai Mingjing and the Heavenly Treasure Sacred Land’s master defending Gu Sheng, even threatening war!
Evidently, he did not expect a mere Sect Realm boy from East Desolation to cause two Holy Realm powers to firmly defend him, risking conflict!
For a moment, he found himself riding the tiger.
Tantai Mingjing, embodying the towering giant statue, rotated the quaint inkstone in his hand, emitting a terrifying pressure covering the Eight Desolations and Six Harmonies, aimed at the golden command arrow.
He did not immediately act, but his cold voice carried undeniable strength.
"Wanxiang, speak plainly, what exactly are your intentions? If you can’t explain, today my ’Mountain and River Inkstone’ will surely pay your Myriad Phenomena Holy Land’s gate a visit!"
The Master of Myriad Phenomena paused for a moment, clearly weighing the pros and cons rapidly. Hard confrontation won’t yield well, potentially triggering all-out war between the two Holy Lands and the Tantai family, consequences beyond what he can bear.
He snorted coldly, going along, but remained assertive in tone.
"Tantai Mingjing, Yuan Batian! I am anything but afraid of you! This event is a private grievance between Myriad Phenomena Holy Land and that Eastern Desolate warrior!"
His words shifted focus back to Gu Sheng.
"This child, in Wanxiang Imperial City, rampantly struck and gravely injured Elder Lu’s grandson Lu Chensong, nearly a cripple! Such behavior equates to slapping Myriad Phenomena Holy Land’s face! Without explanation, how will my Holy Land maintain its dignity?"
His voice rose with a declaration-like significance.
"This time, I represent Myriad Phenomena Holy Land to officially challenge Eastern Desolate Martial Artist Gu Sheng to a duel!"
"Tomorrow at noon, Myriad Phenomena Holy Land’s Saint Heir will set up a ring outside Tianyuan Emperor City to challenge Gu Sheng in a fair fight! This battle will only determine winner and loser, without interference! Gu Sheng, dare you accept this challenge?!"
Upon hearing this, Tantai Mingjing’s brows furrowed, reproaching.
"Rubbish! Your Myriad Phenomena Holy Land’s so-called Saint Heir aged long past a hundred years, cultivation reaching the peak of Earth King Realm, yet shamelessly claim the younger generation? Issuing a challenge to a Sect Realm junior, Wanxiang, have you no shame?"
