Chapter 602 - Nine-Sky Star-Breaking Array Formation
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Time slowly went by, and Hao Ren slowly recovered in his cave.
His body wasn’t affected by advancing into top-tier Gen-level. However, the three enhancement pills brought some damage to his meridian.
It was late at night, and the valley returned to its peacefulness. The golden shield and Little White didn’t fight anymore; the golden shield laid on the top of a mountain, and Little White snuggled in its cave.
Like always, the purple gold hairpin stood in the soil quietly as if it were a lost hairpin.
Inside Xie Yujia’s cave abode, Xie Yujia was patiently drawing dharma notes, Zhao Yanzi was sound asleep while she snuggled in a blanket, and Duan Yao’s arms and legs were tied so that she could only glare at Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia.
Duan Yao initially thought that they were scared of Sky Mountain Sect and wouldn’t dare to kill her.
However, now she found that Hao Ren was strong, Xie Yujia was good at creating dharma notes, and Zhao Yanzi was of pure water body type; they were all mysterious to her.
The valley that they stayed in had abundant nature essence, and the fact that Zhao Yanzi could still sleep at a time like this proved they weren’t scared of Sky Mountain Sect.
Zhao Yanzi flipped her body on the stone bed. When she looked up and saw Xie Yujia still drawing dharma notes, she thought for a few seconds and asked, “Why don’t you sleep for a bit?”
“It’s ok. I’m not tired,” Xie Yujia responded.
She had been continuously drawing essence-locking notes in the past few hours; she had created more than 100 of them. It took nature essence to draw dharma notes, but that amount of nature essence would be recovered quickly. The key thing was that it was really energy consuming.
Hao Ren might use all the dharma notes she drew in a few seconds even though she had spent hours on making them. However, if they were useful for Hao Ren, then it was all worth it.
Zhao Yanzi looked at Xie Yujia and thought for a while before saying, “Thanks… for saving me this time.”
“Hehe.” Xie Yujia smiled softly.
“However…” Zhao Yanzi paused and continued to say, “I won’t give Hao Ren to you.”
Xie Yujia also paused and then nodded. “Okay.”
She understood Zhao Yanzi and secretly admired her for declaring her stance so clearly. She liked how direct Zhao Yanzi was. She wanted to be more direct like her, but she just couldn’t.
Xie Yujia secretly started to compare herself with Zhao Yanzi. She tried to simulate a situation where Zhao Yanzi risked her life to save her, and she felt like she would probably give up on Hao Ren.
Duan Yao opened her eyes wide and was listening to the conversation between Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia attentively. She guessed that they weren’t Hao Ren’s concubines but junior sisters.
“If that is true… then their master, the Herb King Master, must be unbelievably mighty…” she thought.
Then, she said to them, “I think you guys don’t need to fight for him because both of you don’t deserve him.”
Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia both turned to look at Duan Yao.
“Your senior brother won’t even look at you guys. He’s going to reach the Nascent Soul Realm soon. If he were to find a partner, he would find one who is at least in the Core Formation Realm,” Duan Yao said.
When Zhao Yanzi heard Duan Yao’s words, she looked at her angrily. For Xie Yujia, she only looked at her with frustration and didn’t know what was going on in Duan Yao’s head.
“If you guys put enough effort into cultivation and reach the Core Formation Realm, then maybe you guys would deserve him. But… I think he’d reach at least mid-tier Nascent Soul Realm. If you guys are still only at low-tier Core Formation Realm cultivators, it wouldn’t be a match,” Duan Yao said.
What she said was indeed the standard rules across the cultivation world. Those mid-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were only one step away top-tier Nascent Soul Realm, so they weren’t willing to keep a low-tier Core Formation Realm concubine by their sides.
Duan Yao felt sorry for Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia since they were only at the Foundation Establishment Realm and had to look up to their senior brother who was at Core Formation Realm and had hopes of charging at the Nascent Soul Realm.
Duan Yao thought back to the fact that she was at the Core Formation Realm, so she had a sense of superiority. Also, she was happy that she could strike them mentally.
“Jerk!” Zhao Yanzi picked up a bag of snack and threw it at Duan Yao.
Duan Yao leaned her head to one side and dodged. Although she couldn’t use nature essence, she was still very agile since she had practiced martial arts.
Zhao Yanzi looked at Duan Yao in anger. However, she suddenly thought that Duan Yao was a pitiful person who didn’t have chips to eat, television to watch, and computers to play with…
When Zhao Yanzi thought about these things, she felt like Duan Yao’s life was very boring!
Duan Yao was feeling uncomfortable because Zhao Yanzi was looking at her funny. She suddenly thought that maybe she had gone overboard with her words and destroyed Zhao Yanzi’s love fantasy. What if Zhao Yanzi was so mad that she would do something to her?
“Hao Ren said that he left you with us. I almost forgot that,” Zhao Yanzi said.
Duan Yao’s little face suddenly turned stiff.
Hao Ren wouldn’t do anything to her, so he left her to Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia.
After all, only they understood what had happened between them.
Now that the Sky Mountain Sect cultivators surrounded Ethereal Summit, Hao Ren had no interest in dealing with the arrogant Duan Yao.
“You almost killed the both of us.” Zhao Yanzi walked up to Duan Yao with a wry smile.
“Kill me if you want!” Duan Yao looked up proudly.
Zhao Yanzi had viewed Fifth Heaven as a tourist spot, but that was the wrong perception.
Duan Yao wanted to kill Zhao Yanzi because Zhao Yanzi took her stuff. If it were other stronger cultivators, they would have murdered Zhao Yanzi because of the dharma treasures she owned!
Zhao Yanzi looked at Duan Yao and thought that the latter lived a pitiful life; she now knew that Fifth Heaven wasn’t as safe as she had thought.
She was able to rob the evil cultivators on Fifth Heaven because they were all weak cultivators. However, she would not be able to withstand those cultivators from Sixth Heaven.
If it weren’t for the explosion of the golden bell on Little White’s neck, she would have either died in the hands of Duan Yao or the hands of that black-faced cultivator.
After some more thoughts, Duan Yao’s rudeness and unreasonableness were understandable since she grew up in such an environment. In reality, she was just cautious and looked after herself.
The cultivation world was indeed so. You would not know whether another person was going to start attacking you.
Foundation Building Realm cultivators looked scared in front of Core Formation Realm cultivators, but they might have tricks up their sleeves. If something went wrong, and they felt like their lives were in danger, the Foundation Building Realm cultivators would attack the Core Formation Realm cultivators without mercy!
Hao Ren was able to strike back at Hongyuan Master because of the same logic; he had secretly hidden three enhancement pills and six essence-locking notes on him to kill the Nascent Soul Realm master in one shot!
“It’s ok. I won’t fuss with you!” Zhao Yanzi suddenly turned around and sat on the stone bed.
Duan Yao looked at Zhao Yanzi with shock and was confused.
Xie Yujia also looked at Zhao Yanzi with confusion because she couldn’t guess what Zhao Yanzi was thinking.
Hao Ren left Duan Yao to them, but both Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia were not ruthless.
The room turned silent again.
Zhao Yanzi cultivated the Big Dipper Constellation Scroll while Xie Yujia continued making dharma notes.
Duan Yao sat there doing nothing. She thought for a while and suddenly said, “If you guys want to escape, then you have to escape fast. After tonight, my grand uncle-master will come out of seclusion cultivation.”
She looked very serious and wasn’t threatening at all.
Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi looked at each other before turning back to Duan Yao, but the latter had shut her eyes and didn’t say another word.
Bam!
An explosion shook the valley.
Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi rushed to the cave entrance and saw that over 200 cultivators were riding on snow lions and attacking from all directions.
Bang! All sorts of colorful lights lit up the valley as it shook violently again; it shook so violently that Zhao Yanzi and Xie Yujia almost fell outside the cave.
Over 200 Core Formation Realm cultivators attacked Ethereal Summit with over 200 snow lions that were at least level 3!
Over 200 dharma treasures were thrown at the valley. Every time they attacked, the mountains on the sides would be shortened a little.
Almost all the mid-tier Core Formation Realm cultivators of Sky Mountain Sect came here and surrounded Ethereal Summit!
Bang! There was another attack, and the outer energy sphere immediately cracked!
The mountains around Ethereal Summit were all exploded!
The mountains were falling, and the ground was cracking!
Many cultivators in the three small sects around Ethereal Summit died!
Hua… A beam of light was shot out from Hao Ren’s cave.
The purple gold hairpin that was stuck to the ground flew up with the wind, and the golden shield which was sleeping on the peak of a mountain followed the light as well.
“Die!”
Hao Ren was furious. As he flew into the sky, he shot the 640 sword energies in all directions.
In reality, he was confident that he could have taken Xie Yujia and Zhao Yanzi with him and escape from Fifth Heaven.
However, he was afraid that the three small sects around here would be exterminated, and the spiritual fields that Xie Yujia put a lot of effort into would be wasted. Therefore, he decided to stay in the valley. He wanted to use his power of peak Qian-level to defeat the Grand Uncle-Master of Sky Mountain Sect and try to negotiate.
However, just when he was cultivating, Sky Mountain Sect came suddenly and attacked!
The cultivators in the three small sects ended up being sacrificed!
The Sky Mountain Sect cultivators didn’t care about the lives of these cultivators of small sects. Since they were affiliated with the Herb King Master, Sky Mountain Sect treated them as pure enemies and didn’t mind killing them all!
As sword energies dashed toward the hundreds of Core Formation Realm cultivators, Hao Ren crushed the Five-Mountain Bracelets.
“Nine-Sky Star-Breaking Array Formation!”
Over 200 Core Formation Realm cultivators shouted simultaneously.
Nine white beams of light shot up high into the sky from the ground, and the nine circular light beams which had diameters of hundreds of meters moved around in a circular pattern. The mountains they touched immediately got crushed!
“Ultimate strike!” over 200 Core Formation Realm cultivators shouted again in unison.
This great array formation could kill any cultivator below mid-tier Nascent Soul Realm. The Sect Master had ordered that they needed to flatten Ethereal Summit before the Grand Uncle-Master finished his seclusion cultivation.
The nine light beams merged into one in the sky, forming a pillar with a radius of 500 meters; it was aimed toward Hao Ren!
Under such pressure, any cultivator below mid-tier Nascent Soul Realm would not be able to escape! This strike would be similar to the power of top-tier Nascent Soul Realm.
Under such a blow, it could flatten Ethereal Summit and crush Hao Ren so that nothing would be left!
Duan Yao could see the blazing white light in the sky, and her face turned pale.
Although she had her grand uncle-master’s lifesaving token, she might still not be able to live with her Core Formation Realm powers under such an earth-shattering attack!
Her nature essence was also locked, so she was like an ordinary person. If the Nine-Sky Star-Breaking Array Formation was fully unleashed, she would die for sure!
“Dad is too cold-hearted! To save the reputation of Sky Mountain Sect, he doesn’t even care about my life and wants to end the fight before tomorrow!’
Bam!
The 640 sword energies turned into 1280 sword energies!
Bam!
The 1,280 sword energies turned into 2,560 sword energies!
Bam!
The 2,560 sword energies turned into 5,120 sword energies!
Bam! Bam! Bam!
There were now 40,960 sword energies!
Peak Qian-level!
