Chapter 2571: Chapter 124: Divining Cause and Effect, What Is Wusheng!
The South Border of Great Qi Country.
Inside the Sī Xuán Underground Palace.
A cultivator with an extraordinarily youthful face suddenly opened his eyes.
In his eyes, starlight danced and star maps shifted, as if a vast Star River was flowing through the universe.
In a moment, everything settled and returned to the dark pupils. Endless mysteries were deeply hidden within.
In his pupils, the distant, ancient Knife Coin quietly cracked, losing all its spiritual power. Everything attached to it vanished, never to be seen again.
Finally, he closed his eyes, rolled up the Star Map Robe, and sighed, "The youth are formidable!"
It was unclear if he was referring to Marquis Wu’an of Daqi or to the Unborn Sect Founder.
...
In Linzi Giant City, atop the Star-Gazing Tower.
As the tallest tower in all of Linzi, and the entire Qi Country, this tower stood straight and tall, reaching into the clouds. Standing at the very top, it seemed one could touch the stars.
And at a certain moment, a slender figure fell from the highest point!
Before the whistling sound could be heard, only a flash of starlight was seen, and the figure disappeared.
...
Inside the Marquis of Bowang’s Mansion, Zhongxuan Sheng sat before a desk, his chubby hands almost flipping out afterimages. His small eyes, like soybeans, darted left and right, constantly shifting.
Spread across the desk were various categorized intelligence reports, containing almost all information about Zhang Linchuan. Shadow Guards frequently entered and exited, bringing the latest news from all regions of the living world.
Shisi silently stood beside him, occasionally taking away the intelligence reports that Zhongxuan Sheng marked off.
At this moment, Ruan Zhou landed outside the room door: "By order of my father, I have important intelligence to report to Marquis of Bowang!"
Inside, Zhongxuan Sheng pushed back his chair and stood up, shouting, "Come in!"
Ruan Zhou stepped into the study, nimbly walking through the small mountains of intelligence reports stacked around, moving to face Zhongxuan Sheng, then waved a hand—
Amidst flowing starlight, a complex and intricate map of the current world unfolded above the desk.
"According to my father’s divination, Zhang Linchuan’s Divine Skills manipulate the seven spirits for life substitution, involving the Netherworld Evil God, making it difficult to measure, but his secondary body is fated to be seen and can be determined. He currently has five lives outside, all undergoing tribulation. If all succeed, with Heavenly Will added, his future may be unstoppable."
Before Zhongxuan Sheng could grow worried, she straightforwardly stated, "I will show you the location of these five lives!"
Her delicate hand circled the starlight, constantly pointing on the map. Each point revealed specific details as it expanded and enlarged on the map.
Ruan Qin, as Qi Country’s pinnacle practitioner of Star Divination Technique, was capable of cutting off cause and effect and forever closing escape routes—not mere words. She calculated with precision the city, identity, name, appearance, and strength.
After Zhongxuan Sheng committed all to memory, he rushed out, smashing through the mansion gate, leaving only one sound in the room: "Miss Ruan, your efforts are appreciated, Jiang Qingyang will surely repay this grand favor!"
Ruan Zhou blinked, and the mountain of flesh before her had vanished.
The lady of the manor, who seemed somewhat timid, appeared from somewhere with a cup of plain water, making a great effort to maintain the manor’s etiquette: "Well, lady, have a cup of tea then."
...
Zhongxuan Sheng burst out of the Marquis of Bowang’s Mansion, flying swiftly through Linzi City, crashing into the Imperial City, and rushing directly into the Political Affairs Hall!
"How dare the Marquis of Bowang act so rudely!"
Though his rotund figure was still far, the purple-robed military commander guarding the Political Affairs Hall sternly reprimanded and even placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, inciting a killing aura.
Flight was not permitted within the Imperial City, so Zhongxuan Sheng began running from afar, his flesh rippling like water waves as he ran, raising his arms, one holding the State Marquis seal, the left for Wu An, the right for Bowang, shouting loudly—
"Where is the Imperial Court Adviser? Can we avenge the Great Qi Country’s enmity?!"
As the sound fell, a tall figure stepped out, waving away the Palace Guard generals who were gripping their swords.
The Adviser on duty at the Political Affairs Hall today was indeed Yi Xingchen.
Seeing his son-in-law act so rashly, he was about to rebuke him when a thought turned in his mind, and he asked, "Related to Marquis Wu’an?"
Zhongxuan Sheng eagerly nodded, "Yes, Father! The secondary body of the Unborn Sect Founder has been detected by Ruan Jianzheng. I need to use the channels of the Political Affairs Hall to spread the word across the world, for extermination. This matter cannot be delayed; Ruan Jianzheng said there would be changes if delayed!"
This call of Father was warmer than to Yi Huaimin.
The title made even the True Man of the Age Yi Xingchen somewhat numb in the ears, but eventually, the content behind it captured his attention.
What was the cost of Ruan Qin personally divining?
This was his first thought.
But the first thing he said was: "Then what are you waiting around for? Hurry and come in!"
...
...
Since mastering Facing Heaven’s Gate, Jiang Wang had almost been invincible in the Spirit world battles.
But today he met his match.
Zhang Linchuan not only resisted the suppression of Facing Heaven’s Gate but also launched a fierce counterattack amid the Corpse Mountain Blood Sea, sitting high on the White Bone Throne!
The spirit and soul power of a top-level God Arrives is extraordinary, and Zhang Linchuan himself is a master of soul manipulation, not to mention he once reached the True God Realm.
The Corpse Mountain towered to the sky, and the boundless Blood Sea surged wildly.
The White Bone Hand stretched forth, covering the vault of heaven, and already enshrouded the Gate of Heaven.
And in this portal, Jiang Wang transformed into the Six Desires Bodhisattva, emitting Buddha Light, with a dignified and majestic presence, stepping through the gate.
Turning his palm, the Brahma chant arose, Six Desires Jile, color thought sound, and the splendid Buddha palm, presenting an outlandish appearance, directly rose to support against the White Bone Hand.
