Free Web NovelChapter 1847: Chapter 1832: Hamstrung by Fear
It was like a gentle breeze passing by, as a subtle tremor appeared in the void. Xuan Sheng, a half-step Creation Realm expert from the Heavenly Temple, abruptly emerged from the void.
The moment he appeared, Xuan Sheng activated the mother-child conch in his hand and said, "Nuolu has already cornered that little thief; you can gather in this direction..."
Halfway through his sentence, Xuan Sheng paused in astonishment.
Why is there no one here?
Xuan Sheng’s eyesight was incredibly sharp, and being high in the sky, his divine sense was immensely powerful. The moment he arrived, Xuan Sheng confirmed one thing—there was not a single person within a hundred-mile radius.
Moreover, there was no intense Spiritual Power Wave within a thousand-mile radius.
But the problem was, earlier, Xuan Sheng had discovered through the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror that the Heavenly Temple Great Divine Master Nuolu had cornered their target right here.
A little guy at the sixth stage of the Dark Palace Realm, once cornered by a Great Divine Master of the Heavenly Temple, there would be absolutely no second outcome.
However, considering Ye Zhen’s extraordinary speed, Xuan Sheng thought that perhaps continuous fighting and fleeing were possible.
With a thought, the innately spiritual treasure Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror avatar in Xuan Sheng’s palm lit up.
In the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror, anyone not of the Heavenly Temple glowed red.
And at this moment, in the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror, there was only one point of red light, which must be Ye Zhen.
At this moment, this red light was flashing, rapidly advancing forward, presumably still escaping.
This made Xuan Sheng’s brow furrow; why was this kid still being so arrogant?
He had just taken a little time to organize and deploy forces to surround Ye Zhen, so he arrived a little slower.
But the problem was, hadn’t Nuolu already cornered him?
Thinking of Grand Divine Master Nuolu, Xuan Sheng suddenly snapped awake. Right, where’s Grand Divine Master Nuolu?
Wasn’t he the one who cornered Ye Zhen? Where did he go?
Instinctively, Xuan Sheng turned his gaze to the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror avatar.
With just a glance, Xuan Sheng’s eye corners twitched violently, breaking into a cold sweat. freewёbnoνel.com
His heart was sinking rapidly!
One was missing!
On the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror avatar, there were originally seven light spots, six Heavenly Temple Great Divine Masters, and their target.
But now, there were only six!
The Great Divine Masters of the Heavenly Temple had long left their Divine Soul Imprints in the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror avatar, and with a sweep of his divine sense, Xuan Sheng knew that the missing one was the Grand Divine Master Nuolu who intercepted Ye Zhen.
Under normal circumstances, there are only two reasons to shake off the surveillance of the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror.
One is that the one being monitored left this realm or walked out of the surveillance range of the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror, but that’s impossible.
The spatial passages within tens of thousands of miles radius have already been sealed off by the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror, and this world is now under the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror’s surveillance.
Neither Ye Zhen nor Grand Divine Master Nuolu could have left here in such a short time, and it’s even less likely that Grand Divine Master Nuolu left here voluntarily.
The other possibility is—demise!
If Grand Divine Master Nuolu had already fallen, with his soul dispersed, he died. The Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror is an innate spiritual treasure, no matter how powerful, it cannot monitor someone who no longer exists.
"In such a short time...."
Cold sweat instantly dripped down Xuan Sheng’s forehead. From the moment Nuolu notified him until he arrived here, less than ten breaths had passed.
In less than ten breaths to take down a Heavenly Temple Great Divine Master, even for Xuan Sheng himself in the half-step Creation Realm, it posed some difficulty.
"Be careful!"
"Immediately notify everyone to be cautious; there might be an extremely mysterious expert behind the opponent, who can evade the surveillance of the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror!"
"Everyone, pair up nearby immediately, lest you be defeated one by one!"
These words, Xuan Sheng spoke with utmost gravity.
And this, Xuan Sheng felt, was a reasonable judgment.
The Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror is an innate spiritual treasure, but in this world, there are also some treasures that can obscure the surveillance of the Heavenly Domain Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror.
A hundred breaths later, under Xuan Sheng’s guidance, the five Great Divine Masters first gathered with Xuan Sheng.
"Supreme Elder, we found nothing!"
Xuan Sheng’s face was as dark as charcoal, extremely sullen and extremely unsightly.
Before accomplishing anything, they had already lost one Great Divine Master, and they didn’t even know where the enemy was.
Even more troubling, the sudden disappearance of this Great Divine Master gave Xuan Sheng a rat-in-a-hole feeling of trepidation.
Previously, he felt their target was merely a cunning little mouse.
The Great Divine Masters he brought were all tigers; once cornered, it would be over.
But now, he dared not let these Great Divine Masters disperse to corner Ye Zhen.
Even to the Heavenly Temple, Great Divine Masters are extremely valuable and cannot be sent to die.
But if they paired together, the five Great Divine Masters he brought could only blockade two directions, which would be meaningless.
This feeling of being restrained made Xuan Sheng very unhappy.
So many resources were used for such an ant, even an Innate Spiritual Treasure was employed, yet unexpectedly, it claimed the life of a Grand Divine Master first.
This ignited an inexplicable evil fire in Xuan Sheng’s heart.
"No matter the cost, capture that boy. Beware, do not split up before reinforcements arrive."
With a cold snort, the Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror in Xuan Sheng’s palm suddenly erupted in dazzling brilliance, and all six of Xuan Sheng’s party vanished.
The reason for Xuan Sheng’s caution is that their Heavenly Temple’s Grand Divine Master, Nuolu, disappeared, inferred to be more than likely fallen.
It’s important to know that within less than ten breaths, eliminating a mid-Dao Realm Grand Divine Master, even for Xuan Sheng as a half-step Creation Realm, posed some challenge, hence the caution.
However, if Xuan Sheng knew that the Grand Divine Master Nuolu fell at Ye Zhen’s hands, he would probably spit blood.
To be accurate, Grand Divine Master Nuolu fell victim to Ye Zhen’s scheme.
Nuolu never expected that Ye Zhen would possess such a terrifyingly powerful Divine Skill Secret Technique as the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder.
However, the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder merely created an opportunity for Ye Zhen to strike.
That Grand Divine Master Nuolu was beaten to death by all the forces at Ye Zhen’s command, taking turns to gang up on him.
The Sky Wing Three Saints, senior sister Liao Feibai, and the Nine-Headed Beast as well as the Purple Spirit Immortal Sword, including Ye Zhen himself, within just two or three breaths, each made hundreds of attacks, using their most adept and the only Divine Skill Secret Techniques capable of harming Nuolu.
And as for Grand Divine Master Nuolu, he was rather unfortunate.
From the moment he encountered Ye Zhen and was bombarded by the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, Grand Divine Master Nuolu was caught in a chain of blows, unable to retaliate.
Especially with the Sea-Breaking Great Saint, who used his Innate Divine Ability to trap Grand Divine Master Nuolu tightly, making him like a target for a beating.
Grand Divine Master Nuolu from the start of the battle to its end had no opportunity to strike back.
If Grand Divine Master Nuolu had managed a single counterattack, the result would have changed.
Ultimately, it came down to Grand Divine Master Nuolu underestimating Ye Zhen too much, allowing Ye Zhen to exploit the opportunity.
If Grand Divine Master Nuolu had been slightly more cautious, it might have been Ye Zhen who was unfortunate.
Of course, it was also unfortunate for Grand Divine Master Nuolu, who could have imagined that a small guy in the Sixth Stage of the Dark Palace Realm could unleash a Thunder Technique like the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, which only Dao Realm experts could master.
Previously, Wang Baimu also suffered this loss from Ye Zhen.
Nuolu never thought, though it was seemingly just one person, Ye Zhen could instantly summon a team to gang up on him.
It was truly unforeseen.
It can be said, achieving victory against Grand Divine Master Nuolu was exceptionally fortuitous for Ye Zhen.
Initially, Ye Zhen’s plan was simply to hit Nuolu hard with the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, then use the time to flee.
Ye Zhen never expected that Grand Divine Master Nuolu would be so careless, directly caught in the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, and simply, with nothing to lose, Ye Zhen brought out the Sky Wing Three Saints and others.
It’s known that over the years, the Sky Wing Three Saints and others had been diligently cultivating within the Mirage Dragon Pearl, with their cultivation time exceeding even Ye Zhen’s.
Their cultivation had long since broken through to the Realm King Realm.
More importantly, due to the Spirit Void Fruit provided by Ye Zhen, the bloodlines of the Sky Wing Three Saints had each improved, and they had awakened the Ancient Bloodline, awakening incredibly powerful Innate Divine Abilities.
The Innate Divine Abilities they awakened were comparable to the Void-Breaking ability of Little Cat.
How powerful is Little Cat’s Void-Breaking?
By simply relying on this single Innate Divine Ability, Ye Zhen could escape Xuan Sheng’s relentless pursuit, a half-step Creation Realm warrior.
The formidable power of the Innate Divine Abilities awakened by the Sky Wing Three Saints can be imagined.
In a scenario where Grand Divine Master Nuolu was unable to counterattack, their full-scale assault was unsurprisingly effective.
Of course, the precondition was that Grand Divine Master Nuolu was in a state of continuous attacks without respite.
If Nuolu had a chance to strike back, with his ability to manipulate some Heaven and Earth Law Power, he would certainly have left Ye Zhen with an incredibly profound memory.
Moreover, the difficulty of repeating such an event is exceedingly high!
Nonetheless, it successfully served as a warning to Xuan Sheng!
It was also part of Ye Zhen’s scheme, making those from the Heavenly Temple cautious about freely spreading their nets to capture him.
Only in this way did Ye Zhen have a chance to narrowly escape!
.....
In the distance, while Ye Zhen was sprinting madly with Little Cat, the Void-Slaughtering Radiance within the Dark Palace quivered slightly.
Ye Zhen’s gaze fell on a certain point in the void ahead.
In the instant his gaze swept over, Little Cat, in heart alignment with Ye Zhen, immediately activated the Void-Breaking Divine Power, taking Ye Zhen away.
Just as Xuan Sheng, who had just utilized the Innate Spiritual Treasure Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror to appear with five Grand Divine Masters, found no trace of Ye Zhen, at a glance at the Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror, his face darkened.
He had calculated Ye Zhen’s position moments ago and, using the spatial might of the Innate Spiritual Treasure Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror, sent them ahead of Ye Zhen.
But to his frustration, making him want to spit blood, Ye Zhen was simply too slippery.
As soon as they arrived, Ye Zhen appeared far away in another direction.
The whole process took less than half a breath of time!
"Continue the chase; I don’t believe it!" Xuan Sheng stomped angrily, once again activating the Innate Spiritual Treasure Ten Thousand Sky Divine Mirror, disappearing with the five Grand Divine Masters!
