Chapter 21: The Fortune Child Attendant
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
Minghe was stunned as the last 10 percent merit struck down on Blood Sea. He had not partic.i.p.ated in the Cultivation Tribulation, had he? Minghe now understood the reason for Karma. The Enlightenment Tablets he had placed in Untainted Lands had caused the Cultivation Tribulation to be brought forward. Stealing from the various tribes had caused them to suspect each other. The movements from Blood Sea exposed Luohou, which in turn had caused the Cultivation Tribulation to end earlier. the Way of Heaven witnessed everything that occurred, thus resulting in the 10 percent Merit of Cultivation Tribulation.
Minghe was elated about getting the merit. This 10 percent merit of Cultivation Tribulation cla.s.s was equal to 30 percent Merit of Creation. Using it to power the Golden Lotus of Merit could not have been better and by absorbing the merit, Minghe"s Original Spirit multiplied in size on the Golden Wheel of Merit above his head. How could he not be happy!
Just as he was celebrating, Minghe suddenly received Spiritual Thoughts from the Clone of Blood G.o.d and frowned. Through the protective formation of Sacred Island, he saw a black lotus and a long spear appear in the midst of Blood Sea. Minghe recognized the two items the moment he saw them. It was the two spiritual treasures: the Black Lotus of Destructions and the G.o.d-killing Spear. They had disappeared without a trace once Luohou self-exploded.
How had they materialized here? Minghe was suspicious. He looked at the two spiritual treasures, they were sucking in the Evil Blood Aura from Blood Sea in an effort to recover. Minghe had been keeping an eye on the battle of Hongjun and Luohou. Luohou had been dependent on these two spiritual treasures for days when battling against Hongjun, causing the two treasures to suffer trauma.
Both the Black Lotus of Destructions and the G.o.d-killing Spear could absorb the Killing Intent of Heaven and Earth for self-recovery. Now that the Cultivation Tribulation was over, the sky was clear and if anywhere else was said to have an abundance of evil aura, sadly, they were only left with Minghe"s Blood Sea. These two magic weapons wanted to quickly return to their normality, so Blood Sea was the best choice.
Though it seemed logical on one hand, it was freakishly odd on the other. At one time, Luohou, a renown, cruel man had been their owner. He was a master on par with Hongjun, a sinister and evil man, who had lost the battle to Hongjun and then self-exploded, ruining the whole western area. The only things missing were these two spiritual treasures.
With the precious treasures in front him Minghe hesitated. Luohou was not a kind man. Even if he died, he would not make it easy for others. The ruin of the west and the shocking Karma prowess Hongjun had received were proof. It was difficult to ensure that these two magic weapons did not retain any hidden tricks from Luohou.
But if he did not retrieve them and allowed both the Black Lotus of Destructions and the G.o.d-killing Spear to recover, it would not be a smart thing either, as they would be a pain to deal with after recovery. This became a troubling quiz for Minghe, to retrieve or not to retrieve. That was the predicament Minghe was faced with. After some thought, his eyes glinted. When he looked at the Black Lotus of Destructions and the G.o.d-killing Spear floating atop Blood Sea, a sinister leer appeared on his face.
Some time pa.s.sed. Minghe left Sacred Island and landed right in front of the Black Lotus of Destructions and the G.o.d-killing Spear, checking the two rare treasures with care. Not even the slightest hint of Original Spirit was left. They were just like normal treasures without an owner, but all the more, this caused Minghe to be anxious.
Treasures without a master would not act in such way. Just as when Minghe"s Blood G.o.d Doppelganger released the seal on the Wuji Apricot Flag and killed the Ancestor of Heaven and Earth. The Wuji Apricot Flag, the Cauldron of Heaven and Earth and the Ruler of Heaven and Earth wanted to break free and run. All magic weapons had thoughts of their own. Naturally, they did not wish to be converted by humans. They might even have intelligence and be able to shapeshift into human form.
If something was out of the norm, then there must be a hidden motive. The Black Lotus of Destructions was a Highest Grade Primordial Spiritual Treasure and the G.o.d-killing Spear was a Top Grade Primordial Supreme Treasure. How would they simply recognize just anyone as their master? Minghe did not have the confidence or the arrogance, so the only way was to let the two treasures recognize Blood Sea as their master and this was the only reasonable explanation.
Minghe looked at the two treasures in front of him and his heart itched. When watching the battle of Luohou and Hongjun, he had seen the prowess of the two treasures, and now the two treasures were right in front of him. Although they were damaged, it did not affect Minghe"s appreciation for the majestic power of the two treasures.
Stretching out, Minghe picked up the G.o.d-killing Spear first. Cracks could be seen on the spear, but Minghe was familiar with the Law of Killing and he could feel the malice killing intent hidden within the spear. No wonder the attack power was on par with the Pangu Banner.
Dripping his blood and injecting his Original Spirit, Minghe could actually refine the G.o.d-killing Spear as his own easily. "What"s going on? Don"t tell me I"m wrong?" Luohou had not actually done anything to the G.o.d-killing Spear! This was just too strange, unless Luohou had changed for the better?
Soon after that, Minghe got ready to convert the Black Lotus of Destructions, only to see a black glow shoot out from it. Unable to react, Minghe was sucked into the center of his Sea of Knowledge. Entering the Sea of Knowledge, a menacing shadow figure clad in black began to form. Was that the Lord of Demons, Luohou? More accurately, it was a residual spirit.
Luohou looked at Minghe"s Original Spirit and laughed out heartily. "Hahaha! Kid, despite your restraint, in the end, you were still tempted by the G.o.d-killing Spear and the Black Lotus of Destructions. If it weren"t for your actions in Blood Sea, I wouldn"t have been exposed. Now it"s time for payback. Come, let me eat you and reincarnate using your body."
Minghe looked at Luohou happily talking away and snickered sinisterly. "Is that so? Luohou, if you want this body, I"ll give it to you. Goodbye!" Waving his hand, Minghe left the body of the Original Spirit, leaving Luohou staring at the empty sea, dumbfounded and lost.
Luohou was stunned. Who was it that he had tried to rob the body from? By giving up his body when threatened, the owner was too spineless. Before he obtained the body, Luohou found out that Minghe had the cultivation realm of Sage-to-be Early Stage. Luohou"s Original Spirit realm had been Sage-to-be Peak, now he was just a mere soul residue. If he wanted the body, he was prepared to fight to death for it. It was unbelievable that he could get it so easily.
"Hold on, what the h.e.l.l is this?" A frightful expression crept onto Luo Hou"s face. "Primordial Unity Golden Immortality Early Stage, what happened? Why is it only a cultivation realm of Primordial Unity Golden Immortality Early Stage? It was definitely the Sage-to-be Early Stage just now. Unless..." Luo Hou glared at Minghe, who appeared before him again.
Luohou had not expected to be cheated by someone else. The Minghe before him definitely had the cultivation of Sage-to-be Early Stage. Staring at the sneering Minghe, Luohou gritted his teeth. "Kid, you dare play with me, I"ll have you..."
Minghe interrupted Luo Ho. "Hehe!" "Luohou, this is called Karma. You reap what you sow. Who told you to rob me, to rob my body? Stop dreaming. Now your G.o.d-killing Spear and Black Lotus of Destructions belong to me, and you"ve only robbed one of my doppelgangers, one with only the cultivation of Primordial Unity Golden Immortality. Let"s see what else you have up your sleeves?"
Luohou was stunned. He tried telepathic communication to both the G.o.d-killing Spear and the Black Lotus of Destructions but there was no movement. He roared, "What did you do, kid?" Minghe rubbed his hands together gleefully and grinned. "Nothing much. Although you left a plan B in the G.o.d-killing Spear and the Black Lotus of Destructions, you should never have let me insert my Original Spirit into them."
Luohou stared as he saw the Divine Law on Minghe tremble. "Law of Spiritual Beings! I did not expect you to learn the Law of Spiritual Beings. You must have used it to make me think that doppelganger was your true self. My Original Spirit insignia must be sealed by your Divine Law, am I right?"
Luohou guessed correctly. What he had taken from Minghe was a clone of Blood G.o.d, nothing more. Minghe snapped his fingers sharply. "Bingo, correct answer. Too bad, there was no price to be given. Now allow me to send you on your merry way." Despite the fact that the stage was set, he needed to prevent any more unexpected occurrences. If Luohou managed to escape, it would be bad.
Luohou looked around, the formation above Blood Sea moved. The s.p.a.ce had been locked and there was no way out. Luohou sighed deeply. "The heavens have abandoned me. The heavens have abandoned me! Kid, although I"ve lost, I"ll never die in your hands. Explode!"
Luohou exploded. With the Red Lotus of Fire beneath Minghe"s feet, Luohou"s explosion could not touch him or much more injure him. Luohou was really dead this time, his spirit had disintegrated and vanished completely. Minghe used the Law of Spiritual Beings and locked onto the spirit of Luohou, and when Luohou committed suicide, the remaining spirit faded into smoke and disappeared into thin air. Minghe was relieved.
Luohou died and Heaven sent down another merit. Even though it was not much, there was 1 percent Merit of Creation. Getting two rare treasures and gaining the merit again, Minghe was beyond delighted. "Ah, Luo Hou! Luo Hou, you really are a servant!" If Luo Hou were still alive and could read Minghe"s thoughts, he would have died from anger, the Lord of Demons being treated as a servant!
