Chapter 492: Chapter 492 Still Thought Temple
Seeing that the enemies are coming toward him, Zhou Xuanji could not care to speak. He immediately took out the two Ancient Gazing legendary swords.
“Howl…..”
“Roooarrr—”
Ten Billion wolf howls shook the sky.
Two powerful flames inundated Zhou Xuanji’s body, black on one side and blue on the other.
Without a word, Zhou Xuanji slashed with all his might.
In an instant, he felt that all of his Heavenly Law’s Celestial Power was drained.
Boom–
The two waves of sword Qi swirled together and swept forward like a tornado with a radius of 10,000 meters. Its impetus was so ma.s.sive that the sky seemed to be torn apart.
The red-haired man opened his eyes wide. Since they were close to each other, he could not evade in time but was engulfed by the sword Qi. He could not even let out a miserable shriek in time.
The Tianxia Map supplied abundant celestial power to Zhou Xuanji. He immediately flew upwards just in case there were more enemies.
He flew with his full speed, and his face turned extremely pale.
He had always deemed the Great Emperor Dao Court an underground faction without many members who dared not appear in the world because of their ident.i.ties. He did not expect the Great Emperor Dao Court to invade the Center G.o.d Province in such madness.
Soon, he flew up to the 15th Heaven. He saw many floating islands and palaces along the way.
He saw people gardening in their courtyards.
These were all powerful cultivators, or else they could not have built their residence at such a high place.
At the same time.
Where Zhou Xuanji swung his swords, the sword Qi dissipated, and the red-haired man reappeared.
At this moment, the red-haired man was in a miserable state. He was covered in blood, and bones could be seen at various places of his body. Half of his hair was burnt.
He looked upward furiously and said with gnas.h.i.+ng teeth, “Zhou Xuanji, I will surely shred you into pieces!”
After that, he transformed into a sword and flew ahead.
He pursued after Zhou Xuanji.
Zhou Xuanji continued to move quickly with the Ten Thousand Ultimate Steps.
But the red-haired man who was badly injured was still on the chase, and he was catching up to Zhou Xuanji.
20th Heaven!
Boooom!
The heavenly lightning bolt struck Zhou Xuanji because he trespa.s.sed the heavens. The Thunderclap Sword on Zhou Xuanji’s head absorbed the heavenly lightning and opened a way for him.
The red-haired man was not that fortunate. He was struck consecutively by bolts of heavenly lightning. Blood was oozing endlessly from his body.
21st Heaven!
22nd Heaven!
23rd Heaven!
24th Heaven!
Zhou Xuanji sped up as much as he could and dared not to be careless.
The high he went, the more powerful the heavenly lightning.
The sky dimmed down, and it was not as bright as the 9th Heaven.
The red-haired man’s injuries worsened. He began to have the thoughts of giving up in his heart.
One must know that a bunch of old monsters resided in the higher heavens.
When they reached the 27th Heaven, he finally gave up. Stopping in midair, he stared at Zhou Xuanji furiously.
He could not even vent his anger by crying out, in case he might draw the attention of the powerful cultivators who resided here.
Zhou Xuanji was continuing ahead.
With the help of the Thunderclap Sword, he had no fear.
Soon, he came to the 30th Heaven.
Having reached here, he suddenly sensed a very powerful aura, which slowed him down drastically.
Even his Heavenly Law Immortal Const.i.tution was affected by this aura. It just showed how powerful this powerful aura was.
Zhou Xuanji pressed on.
31st Heaven!
32nd Heaven!
He suddenly felt dizzy, and he felt like he was going to fall at any time.
“How did this happen…”
He mumbled with gritted teeth. Heading into the 33rd Heaven was much harder than he imagined.
But he did not give up.
If the G.o.d Palace was destroyed, the Divine Cliff would be in danger, impacting Emperor Sword Court.
He must find the Heavenly Saint as soon as possible.
However, the 33rd Heaven seemed so unreachable.
He looked up and saw dark and dense clouds that had no lightning. It seemed like a billowing wave of despair that struck him with hopelessness.
Having reached this place, he became very slow.
Like a kite, he swayed in the air.
His consciousness slowly deteriorated into unconsiousness.
“You, why are you here?”
A voice came. He thought he was hallucinating, but he still tried to reply with much difficulty, “To ask for the Heavenly Saint’s… help…”
Boooom!
He felt a sudden wave of severe dizziness, and he closed his eyes instinctively.
He sat down on the ground.
Shaking his head, he quickly regained his consciousness.
He opened his eyes and saw that he was sitting on the ground before a temple. It had the layout of a traditional courtyard house and was veiled by dark clouds and mist.
Looking up, he saw a host of stars with a bright radiance. The view looked extremely similar to the starry night sky.
Just that this place was higher than the night sky.
A boy was sweeping the ground before the temple gate. The ground was apparently clean, but he still focused on sweeping.
Zhou Xuanji got up and gazed at the plaque on the temple.
Still Thought Temple.
An ordinary name.
“Is the Heavenly Saint here?” he walked up and asked.
The boy was merely a little more than ten years old. He was clean and ruddy with small eyes, which made him look like an honest person.
Without looking at Zhou Xuanji, he replied, “The Grand-Teacher has descended.”
Descended?
Zhou Xuanji was stunned. Was he going to help G.o.d Palace?
He could not help but hesitate in doubt as to whether this was real.
If the Heavenly Saint really went down, should he return as well?
But what if after he left he realized that the Heavenly Saint did not go to help?
At this moment, a man ran out from Still Thought Temple.
He was wearing a green robe, and his hair black and white hair was coiled up with a wooden hairpin according to hair color. His face looked like he was in his 30s.
“I’m finally free!” he cried out in exhilaration and lunacy.
“HAHAHAHA—”
He jogged along as he laughed wildly as though he went nuts.
Brus.h.i.+ng past Zhou Xuanji, he did not stop.
Soon, he jumped into the cloud sea and was no longer to be seen.
Zhou Xuanji could not help but ask, “Who is he?”
The boy replied, “I think he’s called Dragon Sovereign. I’m not sure.”
Dragon Sovereign?
Zhou Xuanji frowned. He had never heard of this t.i.tle before. Could that man be related to the dragon race?
“May I go in?” He asked.
The boy stopped sweeping and looked at him with a peculiar expression. “Are you sure?” He asked.
Zhou Xuanji frowned even deeper. The boy’s expression and the behavior of the Dragon Sovereign seemed to suggest that the Still Thought Temple was not a good place to go in.
The boy saw that he fell into deep contemplation and continued sweeping.
“Contest is inevitable for the Way of the Saint,” the boy said something mysterious, and Zhou Xuanji looked at him again.
Taking out the Ancient G.o.d Sword, he began communicating with the nine souls.
“Still Thought Temple! Why are you here? Run!”
Sovereign Xuan cried out, which made Zhou Xuanji shudder.
He quickly asked in his heart, “What is Still Thought Temple?”
Ghost Emperor Zhangtian sighed, “The place of the Heavenly Law. If you carry karma with you, your soul will be destroyed, and you will die when you step into this place.”
Karma!
Zhou Xuanji trembled and took three steps backward.
No!
Although he was killed, he had also received many blessings from the Heavenly Law. It was considered as merit before the Heavenly Law. What was there to be afraid of?
“If you were to step inside, you will be trapped tens of thousands of years inside,” Ghost Emperor Zhangtian explained again. This totally dissuaded Zhou Xuanji.
He turned around to leave, but a finger tapped on his forehead and immobilized him.
