Chapter 1300 The primordial treasure chooses its master, the one most likely to become the Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue!
The Divine Kingdom was very big, so Song Shuhang could not directly transfer it into his ‘Inner World’.
Moreover, the fragments of the Heavenly City were only a small part of the Divine Kingdom, so they would need to be separated from the rest before getting moved into the Inner World.
Song Shuhang only needed the fragments of the ancient Heavenly City. As for the other parts of the Divine Kingdom that were filled with the ‘hateful’ energy of the flaming eye, he didn’t want to bring those into his Inner World.
In the past, when he’d transferred the various fragments into his Inner World, he’d always been a.s.sisted by Senior White Two or some other senior.
Song Shuhang thought to himself, Should I ask for Senior White Two’s help again?
While he was in thought, a huge area of the Divine Kingdom suddenly collapsed. A spatial storm came rolling in, and the soil, water, plants, and rocks inside the Divine Kingdom were sucked into the whirlwind, getting smashed into pieces.
The Divine Kingdom had already slowly begun to collapse when the flaming eye had fallen, but now the speed of its collapse greatly accelerated. The fall of the Divine Kingdom looked just like a scene in one of those doomsday films.
“If this scene was recorded, it could directly be used as the material for some doomsday movie by any of the seniors in the group.” Song Shuhang’s imagination ran wild as it a.s.sociated the current scenes with the shooting of films.
Scarlet Heaven Sword echoed, “Indeed, a scene like this is pretty rare.” Although it had already been swallowed into the virtuous lamia’s belly, it could still transmit its voice.
Song Shuhang turned his head and saw that his phone had been unknowingly taken out by the virtuous lamia. She was holding it steady as she filmed the Divine Kingdom’s collapse.
Song Shuhang: “…”
Scarlet Heaven Sword explained, “The remaining ‘fanatics and believers’ in the Divine Kingdom are detonating themselves. After losing their G.o.d, the flaming eye, they can no longer exist. Their detonation has hastened the collapse of this place. This is the ‘immortality’ of the lives in the Divine Kingdom, hehe.”
Song Shuhang asked, “What cultivation system do the Divine Kingdom and that Deity belong to?” At the same time, he called for Senior White Two in his mind.
However, Senior White Two did not respond.
Although the door to the Divine Kingdom was closed, it would certainly not be able to stop Senior White Two.
Did Senior White Two start another round of hide and seek?
After giving it some thought, Scarlet Heaven Sword replied, “Which system it belongs to? Perhaps it can be said to belong to the experimental department.”
The corners of Song Shuhang’s mouth twitched. “The experimental department? Is it like how I’m in the Department of Mechanical Engineering?”
Scarlet Heaven Sword replied, “You should have heard it yourself, these guys were the result of an experiment of a ‘creation G.o.d.’ It is no longer important which system they were a part of before becoming deities, they are all experimental products.”
Song Shuhang nodded in understanding.
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Do you really have the time to be chatting with me? Didn’t you want to transfer this Divine Kingdom into your Inner World?”
Song Shuhang replied, “I was calling for a senior just now, but he seems to have gone to play hide and seek with some other guy and did not reply to me. We’re going to have to look for a way to do this ourselves.”
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “This Divine Kingdom is too huge. Even I won’t be able to cut it into pieces and send it to your world. Of course, that is unless Scarlet Heaven personally came over and swung this saber… bah, I mean this sword.”
Song Shuhang said, “If I really can’t do anything, then I can only let the Divine Kingdom collapse first. After it collapses and falls into the main world, I will take out the ancient Heavenly City fragments.”
After the collapse, only the parts that were fragments of the ancient Heavenly City would remain.
At this moment…
“Shuhang, Song Shuhang~ Are you free right now? Can you move me out of your Inner World?”
It was Lady Onion’s voice.
Previously, she was scared of Dharma King Creation’s singing, so she begged Song Shuhang to transfer her into his ‘Inner World’ while promising him a series of conditions that were unfair to herself.
Song Shuhang asked, “What’s the matter?”
Lady Onion replied, “There seems to be something calling out to me. I’m getting a very strong feeling, so I want to come out and take a look.”
Song Shuhang heard this and his thoughts perked up.
Could it be that Lady Onion is resonating with the ancient Heavenly City fragments?
Song Shuhang believed that Lady Onion was no ordinary monster onion.
At that time, Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven took great care to set up a large formation, and planted Lady Onion on top of the mountain, all so that she could have the strongest monster body and unprecedented cultivation potential.
Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven had great expectations for Lady Onion.
Therefore, Lady Onion possibly had an extraordinary origin, one that was worthy of Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven’s attention.
Perhaps she is the reincarnation of a great existence from the era of the ancient Heavenly City, or one of their descendants…
As his thoughts reached this point, Song Shuhang stretched out his hand to bring Lady Onion out of the Inner World.
Lady Onion, who was on the ‘enlightenment stone’, had green onion sprouts growing again.
Her thin arms and legs came out of enlightenment stone.
Song Shuhang asked, “What is it? Did an ‘ancient Heavenly City fragment’ cause you to feel something?”
Lady Onion frowned for a moment before shaking her head, and replied, “No, I didn’t resonate with these ancient Heavenly City fragments.”
Scarlet Heaven Sword secretly looked at her after seeing her appear. Daoist Priest Scarlet Heaven had once told it that this little monster onion was likely to become the next Wielder of the Will. He had said that she had the qualifications to suppress the entire universe.
However, ever since he first met Song Shuhang, it truly could not see how this monster onion had the qualifications to become the Wielder of the Will…
Scarlet Heaven Sword really could not imagine Lady Onion becoming someone like the Scholarly Sage. It couldn’t see how she was going to suppress the entire universe, surpa.s.s all the Immortals, and set foot on the throne of the ‘Wielder of the Will’.
Everything felt so wrong.
Unless all the other Immortals in the universe suddenly died and Lady Onion somehow managed to become an Immortal, it simply did not seem possible.
…F*ck, that can’t be what’s actually going to happen, right? Scarlet Heaven Sword’s mind suddenly moved.
In the future, could it be that the universe was going to cleanse itself of all the Immortals? Then, after a long period of time, Lady Onion would step onto her own path and become the only Immortal, as well as the Wielder of the Will…
If it were to a.s.sociate this thought with the recent events taking place in the world of cultivation, everything made sense. It was well known that the current Wielder of the Will was about to retire, so all Immortals and Tribulation Transcenders had gone into hiding.
The current Wielder of the Will couldn’t be planning to erase all of the Immortals in the universe before he disappears, right?
Scarlet Heaven Sword couldn’t stop its body from trembling.
The more it thought about it, the more fear it felt!
It felt the urge to report this possibility to Scarlet Heaven to keep him vigilant. Even if he was among the top Immortals, he could still easily die in the hands of the Wielder of Will.
At this moment, Lady Onion happily said, “I can feel it!”
Then, she lifted her tiny arms up high. “I’m here!”
At the next moment, a spatial fissure appeared right in front of her.
The originally sealed Divine Kingdom had been broken through.
Afterwards, a long saber that appeared to be both real and illusory emerged from the spatial fissure.
Lady Onion said, “This is it. It’s what was calling out to me.” After saying that, she took her human form.
It had been a long time since she last a.s.sumed her human form. Afraid that Song Shuhang would be captivated by her beauty, which would bring him to do indescribable things to her, she had not taken on her human form for a long time.
She had long green hair that was tied into a pair of cute ponytails. Besides that, she was dressed in a cyan cheongsam, which accentuated her slim and hot figure.
She was wearing embroidered shoes as she stepped on Song Shuhang’s palm.
After a.s.suming her human form, Lady Onion stretched her hands horizontally.
The saber, which was both real and illusory, fell into her hands.
Following that, a terrifying flame blazed and wrapped around the saber.
Lady Onion’s figure was wrapped in flames, making it impossible for others to clearly see the appearance of the saber.
“The Nine Virtues Phoenix Fire!” Song Shuhang recognized the flame at a single glance.
His ‘Defiant Whale Warrior Glove’ had been forged with the ‘Nine Virtues Phoenix Fire’, so he could naturally recognize the flame at a glance.
With that said, this long saber that appeared to be in a state between reality and illusion should be that famous primordial treasure, the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber.
A primordial treasure exceeded the level of an Immortal’s divine weapon. It was the strongest magical treasure in the world as it was created by a Wielder of the Heaven’s Will.
Song Shuhang immediately realized something.
This process… It might be the primordial treasure choosing its master.
If there was no accident, Lady Onion should have been chosen by the primordial treasure as its next master. Consequently, following the Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue, she had become the Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue!
The Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue, Lady Onion.
Scarlet Heaven Sword suddenly realized this as well.
F*ck, a shocking development like this actually took place.
She was the monster onion with the greatest potential in history, and she had been granted the strongest foundation by Scarlet Heaven. Now, she even got the strongest magical treasure.
She really was destined to take off!
Lady Onion quietly stood on Song Shuhang’s palm, her hands holding the burning saber. The horrifying Nine Virtues Phoenix Fire did not hurt her one bit.
While the flames were wrapped around her, the volume of a very profound cultivation technique appeared in her mind.
It was the ❮Nine Transformations Phoenix Technique❯, a set of divine skills that could be used to practice with the ‘Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’. It was a set of skills that guided one all the way to the Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender Realm. Within it were exceptional offensive and defensive saber techniques.
This cultivation technique covered all aspects.
Actually, it wasn’t just a cultivation technique… Along with the ‘Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’, Lady Onion also received all the experiences of the previous seven cultivators of true virtue in regards to the ❮Nine Transformations Phoenix Technique❯.
With this saber in my hand, I’ll conquer the world!
Experience, insight, and skills! It was a cheat that was fitting for a true protagonist.
Scarlet Heaven Sword could already see the ‘luck value’ above Lady Onion skyrocketing.
The process did not take long.
After about ten breaths of time, Lady Onion opened her eyes.
“From this day forth, I’m the Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue,” Lady Onion announced. “The Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue, Lady Onion!”
Song Shuhang said, “Congratulations.”
However, he remembered that ‘Lady Onion’ had never signed her name on the ‘contract scroll’.
How had she become a candidate for the Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue? Did she just directly bypa.s.s all of the cultivators who left their names on the contract?
“After this, I shall begin my journey against the heavens!” Lady Onion waved the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber.
Song Shuhang said, “Hey~ Lady Onion, how are you going to go against the heavens?”
Lady Onion stopped; she glanced at Song Shuhang and fell into contemplation.
That’s right, how am I going to go against the heavens?
What should I do? Should I go to the ‘Nine Provinces Number One Group’ and ask for help?
Maybe I should use Song Shuhang’s account to ask the seniors to guide me on how to go against the heavens?
However, Song Shuhang’s current phone had not been magically modified yet, and there was no signal in this weird s.p.a.ce. Moreover, it was now in the virtuous lamia’s hands, and Lady Onion did not have the ability to beat the virtuous lamia and take hold of the phone.
As such, she could only rely on herself.
It’s only going against the heavens… I should be able to come up with a plan by myself if I use my head a bit.
Lady Onion thought for a moment, and her eyes suddenly lit up.
She said to Song Shuhang, “The first step in my journey against the heavens is… from this day onward, I won’t let you easily take my onion sprouts!”
Song Shuhang: “…”
Scarlet Heaven Sword: “…”
This monster onion really is hopeless, such a small thing actually matters so much to her. It seems that there’s no hope for her to ever acquire the power to ‘suppress the universe’ like the Scholarly Sage.
It seems that something has to be added to the previous claim. Unless all of the Immortals and Tribulation Transcenders in the universe were to inexplicably die, and no other Immortal appeared in a short time, only then Lady Onion might become the ‘top Immortal’ in the future. Of course, he would also need several fortuitous encounters.
If Scarlet Heaven’s prophecy is true, then things truly are looking grim for the various Immortals and Tribulation Transcenders.
Song Shuhang said, “Lady Onion, after this, you should watch less love dramas and fantasy stories. Those kinds of dramas that are centered around a protagonist who always seems to be able to control their destiny aren’t suitable for you to imitate right now.”
Lady Onion: “…”
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Alright, you should stop with the idle chat. The ‘Divine Kingdom’ is about to fall into the main world. We should do something to escape this disaster and avoid getting affected by the impact.”
It was suggesting for Song Shuhang and the others to first hide in the Inner World to avoid the impact of the fall.
Song Shuhang said, “Okay, let’s go.”
Shuhang willed and was just about to bring Lady Onion and himself into Inner World when the burning ‘Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’ suddenly jumped from Lady Onion’s hands to Song Shuhang’s free hand.
Song Shuhang held the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber.
Flames rose from the saber, and the cry of a phoenix clearly resounded from the blade.
The Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber seemed to be very happy right now.
Lady Onion was puzzled, “Eh? Eeeeeh?”
I’m the Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue, why did the Phoenix Saber suddenly jump into Song Shuhang’s hands? Also, the Phoenix Saber seems to be happier in Song Shuhang’s hands than when it was in mine!
Is there a mistake of some sort?
When Song Shuhang held the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, he already knew what had happened.
It was due to the aura that had leaked out when he opened the Inner World. That aura had resonated with the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber.
The Inner World was the work of the third Wielder of the Will, Striped Dragon.
As for the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, it was also a primordial treasure of [Wielder of the Will Striped Dragon.]
The two had the same source, so when it sensed the ‘Inner World’, the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber felt thrilled.
At the same time, it was as if it could sense Song Shuhang’s troubles.
[Swing!] The saber transmitted this thought to Song Shuhang’s mind.
Swing what? The saber?
Song Shuhang held Lady Onion in one hand and the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber in the other, and slashed forward.
Saber qi burst out, and the Nine Virtues Phoenix Fire turned into a lifelike phoenix as it swooped forward.
Wherever the phoenix pa.s.sed, flames descended, causing the ‘Divine Kingdom’ below to become a sea of flames.
Whether it was the rocks, the mud, the trees, or even the black river, they became fuel for the fire and burned wildly when they came into contact with the Phoenix Fire.
