Chapter 1384: Chapter 554: Successor of the Seven Killings
Within the Celestial Golden Pillar of the Eight Desolate Royal Court.
The King of Eight Desolates, Ju Zhang, who was currently activating the array to contact his father, Golden Shuo True Monarch, was somewhat anxious.
In front of a group of Alien Races, he was the overwhelmingly powerful King of Eight Desolates.
But in front of Golden Shuo True Monarch, he was always the not-so-excellent, easily mistake-prone child.
After the last failure, he had said that this second action was meticulously planned, and it was certain he could capture that Human Clan thief and retrieve the lost core of the Limit Breaking Secret Realm.
He had prepared thoroughly enough.
In the previous battle, he had brought over two-thirds of the Eighth Tier forces that could be mobilized from the Eight Desolate Royal Court.
But unexpectedly, he still failed.
The unicorn atop Ju Zhang’s head pulsated in sync with the Celestial Golden Pillar, and in just a few breaths, a golden light shot straight into the sky.
[I still haven’t sensed the return of the core law of the Limit Breaking Secret Realm, and your mission is already over, have you captured the target?
Don’t tell me your second operation failed again?]
The sudden authoritative voice within the Celestial Golden Pillar made Ju Zhang’s expression instantly tense, unable to voice the reasoning he’d prepared beforehand.
[Is it true that you’ve failed again?] Golden Shuo True Monarch’s tone suddenly grew heavier, becoming stern with a tinge of disappointment.
Upon hearing this, Ju Zhang looked ashamed, [Father, I have let you down.]
Silence.
The long silence deepened Ju Zhang’s feeling of shame, making it almost unbearable.
He knew his father’s status and duties, how busy his father was, and how much it cost Golden Shuo True Monarch to take time across such a distant Star Domain to help him.
In his shame, for a moment, he didn’t know what to say.
After a long time, a sigh came from within the Celestial Golden Pillar, [Zhang’er, when will you truly grow up? Can’t you learn to be a bit more prudent like your elder and second brother?
Do you realize how rare the opportunity your father fought for is?
Do you understand the importance of the Limit Breaking Secret Realm to our family?
Even for your father, intentionally trying to recreate a Limit Breaking Secret Realm would take a hundred years, and that’s with some fortune.]
Upon hearing about his elder and second brothers, the original utter disgrace on Ju Zhang’s face was immediately replaced by a complex expression, washed over by an indescribable emotion.
[Father, it’s not that I am imprudent, but the situation was specific.] Ju Zhang defended himself.
[A peculiar situation?]
Golden Shuo True Monarch chuckled coldly, [It seems being the King of Eight Desolates has made your wings grow sturdy enough that you even learned to argue.]
[Father, I am not arguing.]
Ju Zhang grew more resolute, the previous shame had long vanished, replaced by a hidden anger.
He had volunteered for this mission to prove that he was no less capable than his elder and second brothers.
[Oh? Let’s hear it then.] Golden Shuo True Monarch finally gave his most concerning son a chance to explain himself.
[Father, you once told me that Heaven and Earth Authority cannot be deceived, but the Human Clan person I was pursuing disappeared when I invoked the Heaven and Earth Authority sensed from the Great World Primordial Will granted to me by the Eight Desolate Continent.
The Great World Primordial Will of the Eight Desolate Continent did not reject this Human Clan?
Child can’t ascertain the reason.] Ju Zhang inquired.
After a brief pause, Golden Shuo True Monarch provided an answer, [It’s not that you can’t find it, but you’re unwilling to find it.]
[Father, that should not be possible.]
[Did you not report losing one-tenth and four of the Great World Primordial Will when connecting with the Star Domain?
Only if this Human Clan refined the Great World Primordial Will of the Eight Desolate Continent could he avoid its rejection.
That is the reason.
You now have another reason to pursue and kill this Human Clan target.
However, this is not an excuse for failure.] Golden Shuo True Monarch scolded sternly, [Even without the Heaven and Earth Authority’s sensing, the resonance sensing I provided should still lock onto his position.]
[Father, this person’s strength is immensely formidable, highly skilled in Killing Star Skill!]
[You are Ninth Tier!]
Ju Zhang pressed his lips together tightly and continued, [Father, this person is extremely adept in Thunder Series Star Skill and Space Star Technique, his Thunder Series Star Skill even able to directly.... ]
[You are Ninth Tier!]
Before Ju Zhang could finish, he was abruptly cut off by Golden Shuo True Monarch, feeling utterly stifled.
During the confrontation, Ju Zhang felt that Xu Jin’s strength wasn’t much inferior to his own; initially wanting to communicate this with his father, yet his father offered no opportunity for dialogue.
After a few silent breaths, Ju Zhang spoke dejectedly, [Father, this person threw a wooden sword, yet it transformed into an Eighth Tier Peak sword-wielding expert, holding me back for two breaths.]
[What was it? A wooden sword transformed into an Eighth Tier Peak illusion, restraining you for two breaths, where is it?]
Ju Zhang was equally surprised, not expecting this to catch his father’s attention, promptly took out the ironwood sword he previously acquired and placed it under the shimmering light of the Celestial Golden Pillar.
In an instant, the golden light cascading from the Celestial Golden Pillar began to wave like a resume’s ripple.
[This aura... seems familiar, and still uses a sword, can you recall the form of the illusion?] Golden Shuo True Monarch inquired.
Ju Zhang projected the encountered illusion using Starlight, with a ninety-nine percent accuracy.
In the next moment, a shout came from within the Celestial Gold Pillar.
[Qi Sha!]
[This modern Human Clan is the heir of Qi Sha!
According to legend, Qi Sha only accepted disciples who were peerless geniuses, it seems what you said is true, this modern Human Clan is indeed a formidable foe.] Golden Shuo True Monarch stated.
