Lord of the Starry Sky - #228 - Two hundred and twenty. Failure and success
The mastermind is a ghostly sorcerer, and his goal is self-evident. ?шщЩ.suimEnG.1a
He set his sights on Fentianke’s tomb, not to obtain the sword demon and the funerary treasure Fentian Sword, like Wen Peng, but to refine Fentianke into his ghost puppet.
This was also the reason why he still took the risk even though he knew that Dong Jun and other powerful people from the Yanhuang Federation might arrive.
This person does not worry about how to take the tomb objects out, because the tomb itself will become his most powerful helper and weapon.
It is difficult for Wen Peng or other monks to obtain the sword evil and use it to refine and absorb it for their own use to enhance their strength. It is not something that can be solved today. They can only try to take it out and slowly plot. If they cannot take it out, everything will happen. Rest.
But this Nether Magician can try to refine Fentianke’s remains into Nether Puppet on the spot, recall them from the underworld, and immediately have ready-made fighting power.
Fentianke was one of the most powerful sword cultivators in Bashu in the past. He had gone through hundreds of battles and killed countless powerful enemies with his sword.
His physical body was transformed into a ghost puppet, regaining most of his previous strength, and the Heavenly Sword returned to its owner’s hand right next to him. The sword’s edge was so tyrannical that it was earth-shattering.
Even if Dongjun’s Taoism can restrain the Netherworld Curse, there are limits. Facing a powerful opponent like Fentianke, he may have to avoid the edge for a while.
With such a ghost puppet helping to clear the way, the ghost magician would have a chance to get out.
Even if he can kill more enemies and the deceased meets the conditions for the Netherworld to be recalled, he can also refine the corpses of the previous enemies into Netherworld puppets on the spot for him to drive and become his assistance.
This is where the Netherworld Curse is overbearing.
However, in order to avoid delaying too much time and attracting more high-level powerful people from the federation to come to encircle and suppress him after hearing the news, if the Nether Master is wise, he will try his best to escape first.
Being able to recall Fentianke from the Netherworld was already a great gain for him.
Even if he had to sacrifice all the puppets he had accumulated before, he would not hesitate to do so.
It’s pitiful that Senior Fen Tianke was sincere. After his death, he still used his body to suppress the earth’s veins to ensure peace. But now he is coveted by the people in the Netherworld. Ye Jue said while looking at the tall tower.
Although the Netherworld Recall is strange and overbearing, it cannot turn dead monks into puppets at will, especially for a powerful person like Fen Tianke.
From ancient times to the present, all dynasties have severely cracked down on the Netherworld Dao. Their living space has become increasingly narrow, and there are few top-notch Netherworld puppets that can be refined.
Targeting Fentianke this time can be said to be a rare opportunity in hundreds of years.
Shen Jian was also staring at the tower. While paying attention to the movements of the Nether Master, he asked Ye Jue: Is the foundation-building elixir cauldron in your body also contaminated with sword evil?
Yes. Ye Jue replied: It’s very different from the ordinary evil spirits. I was still surprised before, but when I came here, I realized that there was a Nether Magician secretly causing trouble.
Both of them could feel at this moment that the black patterns on their own alchemy cauldrons were becoming more and more vivid.
This also means that the Nether Master is getting closer and closer to success.
Fen Tianke’s remains will soon turn into powerful ghost puppets.
The glorious sun coming to the underground world was already very close at this time, and it was about to reach the top of the tower.
The intense heat swept through the entire formation, destroying it.
The yellow mist completely dissipated, and Shen Jian and Ye Jue had to retreat to avoid being affected by the aftermath of the battle between the Nascent Soul masters in front of them.
Fortunately, Dong Jun took action in a measured manner, and the sunlight made the surrounding underground rock formations stabilize and no longer vibrate.
Shen Jian and the others can go back to the cave they came from.
The cave that was originally crumbling was now stabilized again, allowing people to shelter temporarily.
As for the Nether Master on the tower, the sun is not so friendly.
Under the terrifying high temperature, the shining tower even began to twist and deform, showing signs of melting.
The Nether Master seemed to have been prepared, and he kept casting spells under his hands, but suddenly a small umbrella appeared above his head, shielding himself and the altar tower.
Dark light circulates on the umbrella surface, absorbing a large amount of flames and high temperatures falling from the sky.
With such a strange magic weapon to help resist, the altar tower was immediately safe again.
The Nether Master didn’t have any intention of counterattack, but just took the opportunity to seize the moment and continue his Nether Summoning Ritual.
The blazing sun above had completely crashed down and rested entirely on the small umbrella.
The umbrella surface emits streaks of black light, constantly rotating around, struggling to withstand the pressure brought by the glorious sun.
Dongjun’s attacks kept shattering the black light, causing the small umbrella to sway constantly, as if it might break at any time.
However, this magic weapon has bought precious time for its master.
On the high tower, streaks of black energy rose up, getting thicker and thicker.
Shen Jian and Ye Jue could feel a chill growing in their hearts while they were within the earth’s veins.
It was as if a peerless sword was slowly pulling out of its scabbard, revealing its edge.
This feeling is illusory yet real. It does not come from the scene in front of you, but from the other side, Fentianke’s tomb.
The great sword cultivator who used to wield swords all over the world is about to return to the world in another form.
But at this moment, Shen Jian and both of them were shocked to see the second fierce sword intent appear.
From above!
A crack suddenly opened in the rock, as if the upside-down world had been cut through with a sword.
Not as vast and majestic as the bright sun, but more sharp and killing, a sword light descended from the sky.
Stirred by the torrential sword intent, the swords carried by Shen Jian and Ye Jue even automatically popped out of their scabbards and kept shaking.
It’s the principal. Ye Jue let out a long breath.
Compared with this sword light, the shots taken by Wen Peng and others were like the light of grains of rice under the sun and moon, completely incomparable.
The umbrella-shaped magic weapon above the tower had already been weakened by Dongjun’s pressure. At this time, it was slashed by the sword light and was instantly shattered!
The bright sun took advantage of the situation and hit the high tower.
The black energy was immediately burned and destroyed.
The Nether Master looked up to the sky and sighed.
This is what he fears.
Before he succeeded in summoning him from the underworld, in addition to Dong Jun, other high-level powerful men from the federation arrived.
Although the Nether Master tried his best to hold on, his race against time still ended in failure.
Two powerful men, Dongjun and the president of Longling University, arrived at the same time, and the ritual of summoning from the underworld here could not be carried out at all.
The Nether Master didn’t hold back, and made a decisive decision, smashing the tower into pieces with one palm of his hand.
As soon as the tower was broken, the entire ritual and the mother-child chain collapsed. Thousands of rays of light shot straight into the sky, and the earth’s veins began to vibrate greatly again.
When the earth shook, the Nether Master took the opportunity to escape.
But Taiyang and Jianguang obviously didn’t intend to let him go. The two sides chased and fought, rushing out all the way.
The rock cave where Shen Jian and others were hiding began to shake and collapse again.
