Chapter 1036: A Contest of Wills
there was a hint of lustful light.This old man was, within the Qianqiu Fen Zong, second only to Liu He in strength. He was at the middle stage of the Daoist path.The old man sneered and said, “Apart...Dongfang Bo, using his own soul as a sacrifice, finally completed nine celestial offerings.
And as for what burst out of his body, it was actually the soul of the Dao Sovereign. The crowd wasn't too surprised either.
By this time, it was clear to everyone that Dongfang Bo had been refined into a clone by the Daozun. Therefore, his body was actually the soul of the Daozun in control.
But what truly shocked and baffled everyone was the posture of the soul of respect that appeared at this moment.
The Soul of the Daoist Venerable wasn't standing, but rather like Dongfang Bo's posture, kneeling on both knees before the altar, facing the nine stone tablets which had all been fully lit!
To be honest, this kneeling posture is obviously an insult to anyone!
Needless to say, the aloof and arrogant Daoist master.
It looks as if a sinner were kneeling before this altar, prostrating himself to the entire race of the Silent Ones!
"Boom!"
With the completion of the nine sacrificial rites, that celestial altar began to rotate on its own. And under this rotation, the soul of the Daoist Venerable, who had originally been facing away from the crowd, slowly turned towards them.
At first glance, everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes again. Some even reacted quickly, their eyes suddenly lit up with a hint of comprehension on their faces.
At this moment, the Dao Sovereign's soul was no longer filled with its usual calmness and aloofness. Instead, it was brimming with shock, fury, and helplessness!
Before everyone could figure out why the Dao Zun's soul was expressing such an emotion, the speed of the celestial altar suddenly accelerated and it rushed toward Jiang Yun.
Besides, a terrifying power also emanated from the nine lit stone tablets as the celestial altar spun.
This power is truly immense, beyond any description.
Because they were under the pressure exerted by this power, they were all unable to move.
As a result, they all had a strong feeling that if the attack on this altar of heaven and earth were to begin, then they would probably all become victims under this power.
No exceptions!
Naturally, this caused most of them to show terror on their faces, and they each desperately tried to move their bodies away from here.
Unfortunately, no matter how hard they tried, their bodies were as if fixed in nothingness. They could only watch helplessly as this celestial altar approached Ginger Cloud with terrifying power.
Now, they can only pin their hopes of survival on Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun did not disappoint the crowd either. At least at this moment, his shaking body had stabilized, and he took a deep breath and said word by word: "The Five Peaks of Dahuang!"
"Wow!"
The sacred artifact of the Wilderness Tribe, the Five Peaks of Chaos, trembled violently. Ginger Cloud continued speaking non-stop, “The Samsara Tree, the Primal Yang, and the Demonic Figure of Annihilation!”
With every name called out, the corresponding artifact of the Nine Clans would tremble violently. From the imposing display, it was clear that they had received orders, poised and ready to move like soldiers awaiting deployment!
"No Fixed Soul Fire!"
"Bang!"
Ginger Cloud's life fire once again rose, transforming directly into a boundless soul fire suspended in the sky.
Thus far, the Five Races Sacred Artifact has once again been summoned forth by Jiang Yun.
Of course, everyone understood why. No wonder Jiang Yun had been seriously injured twice when facing Dongfang Bo's attacks on the steles, yet he never used the power of his nine clans.
It turned out to be Dongfang Bo who was resisting this very moment and completing the Nine Heavenly Sacrifice Ritual.
However, some people still had doubts. With these five artifacts of the Five Clans, Jiang Yun was probably no longer a match for Dongfang Bo, who had already completed nine celestial rites.
After all, whether it's Dongfang Bo or the soul of that venerable one, the aura they emit at this moment is so powerful that even this void cannot bear it.
That kind of cultivation level has absolutely surpassed the realm of human analogy, and it's even possible that it has exceeded the Ten Desolation Realm of the 荒君彥 (Huāng Jūn Yàn).
However, as the five artifacts trembled one after another, Jiang Yun unexpectedly continued, "Mirage City, Cauldron of Robbing the Heavens, Swallowing Realm of Yin Spirits!"
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
Just as before, each time a name was called out, a gigantic dark shadow appeared behind Jiang Yun. And everyone knew that these were the sacred artifacts of the other clans!
"Heavenly Altar!"
As soon as the four characters "Ginger Cloud" left his mouth, a sacrificial altar appeared abruptly behind Ginger Cloud.
To this point, the sacred artifacts of the Nine Extinct Clans had all appeared under Jiang Yun's summons!
Gazing upon the nine holy relics, a deathly silence descended upon the vast expanse of the dimensional rift.
Not to mention foreign cultivators, even if it were members of the Nine Clans, such as the clan leaders like Huang Junyan and Lü Piāomiào, or even the ancestors of each clan in the Nine Clans, none of them could have witnessed the sight of all nine sacred objects appearing at the same time!
Although the last four artifacts are illusory, the aura they emit is no less potent than that of the other five tribes' artifacts.
The power generated by the Sacred Relics of the Nine Clans was naturally also powerful to an extreme, standing shoulder to shoulder with the increasingly close Altar of Heaven and Earth.
"Go!"
Jiang Yun spoke again, and the nine ancestral artifacts trembled violently, surging towards the altar in the heavens and earth.
...at this moment, Ginger Cloud gritted her teeth, enduring the terrifying pressure that shattered even nothingness. She ignored the imminent collision of the Nine Clan Sacred Objects and the Heavenly Altar, and instead took a step forward, trudging towards Eastern Scholar who lay prostrate on the ground, devoid of any life.
"I understand!"
At this moment, Lu Lun's eyes flickered with a light that shone brighter than any other. Compared to the worries of others, he was the most composed one.
Of course, this also allows him to see the whole process more clearly.
Although Dongfang Bo was refined into a clone by the Dao Sovereign, he himself said that he had two strands of divine consciousness, one strand hidden within his own body, and just now he spoke to Jiang Yun.
"The divine spark within the Oriental Treasure Trove had never truly vanished."
And the reason he used the Nine Sacrificial Heavenly Art was simply to secretly help Jiang Yun.
Because his previous six sacrifices were essentially using the power of the Six Clans possessed by the Daozun as offerings, which was equivalent to depriving the Daozun of the power of the Six Clans!
“Especially the last nine sacrifices were not to attack Jiang Yun, but to force the soul of Dao Zun who controlled his body out!”
This way, his body would become a vessel without an owner again. Then, as long as Jiang Yun sent the divine consciousness on his body into Dongfang Bo's body, Dongfang Bo could be reborn!
"It seems that Jiang Yun already knew this, so he deliberately allowed Dongfang Bo to complete nine celestial sacrifices. He also placed his strongest power of the Nine Clans last, intending to kill Daozun while taking the opportunity to save Dongfang Bo!"
Even if the Daozun remained immortal, without the power of the Six Clans, he would be absolutely incapable of facing opponents like Jiang Yun or Huang Junyan again!
"In this way, Jiang Yun was finally able to complete the mission in his dream!"
These two, they truly are worthy disciples of the same master. To have schemed to this extent!
Just as Lü Lun was feeling sentimental, the Nine Clans Relic and the Heavenly Altar were about to collide.
And the soul of the Daoist on the altar, kneeling in supplication, also wore an expression of despair.
It is clear that the Daoist master understands that in this battle, he has been thoroughly defeated!
Just then, another change occurred!
Always an outsider like the King of Desolation, Huang Junyan suddenly strode forward and appeared on the Heavenly Altar, beside Dao Zun's soul!
