Chapter 509: – Ninesilver Astral Ar

Dazzling City, Moonseeker Pavilion .

There was no rain today .

In a large piece of land to the east of Moonseeker Pavilion, where the flora and fauna thrived and the air was thick with spiritual energy, were many treasures . A circular wall surrounded the fairyland-like location, which was sealed inside a heavenly pattern formation . The place seemed like an enclosed peach blossom garden .

Outsiders knew it as the headquarters of the Dazzling Pavilion . However, no one knew there were hundreds of thousands of common folk at Spiritsource and Beast Vein stages living there .

For those people, it was paradise . The unlimited supply of spirit herbs and treasures made them reluctant to leave . They were often visited by a beautiful woman they called Supreme God . And the servants around her were known as pavilion lords .

On the top floor of the Moonseeker Pavilion, one could see everything in the Siege City and hear the laughter of children . An old man leaned against a pillar, smiling down on the happy citizens of Siege City .

“They look very happy, and happy souls have unlimited possibilities, unlimited dao . ” The old man stroked his beard .

When he spoke, the woman they called “Supreme God” walked up to him, looking pale .

“Your Majesty returned from the tomb?”

“Yes . “

“Did you find anything?”

“It’s strange . It disappeared into thin air,” said the old man .

“If Your Majesty hasn’t got a clue, then no one in the world can solve the mystery,” said Meng Tingyu .

“You returned to the Divine Capital . What’s the situation over there?” the old man asked .

“Something important happened today . “

“Speak . “

Meng Tingyu described what had happened in front of the Decimo Dao Palace .

“So my grandson, Fengchen, is dead?!” The old man gritted his teeth, eyes turning bloodshot .

“My condolences, Your Majesty . “

“Alas, yet another descendant’s death . First came Li Muyang, who killed Jing’er, then Tianming, who murdered Fengchen! Why is my life so miserable? How many years must I persist before I can find another Fengchen?” sighed the old man .

“Your Majesty, the Theocrats are flourishing with countless talents . Your Majesty will bring glory to the Theocrats for hundreds of years more . As long as you live, the Theocrats are invincible . Why worry about a successor?”

“That may be so, but I’m exhausted . Forget it . Now that the big fish is hooked, as long as we do this well and eradicate them, no one can stop the rise of my descendants . “

“I’ll put an end to the Li Saint Clan as revenge for Fengchen . That poor child,” the old man lamented .

He sighed and shook his head . Meng Tingyu couldn’t tell if he was really sad; although he sounded sad, it was just a passing remark .

“Yu, tell me about the monster,” said the old man .

Meng Tingyu reported what everyone else had mentioned .

“Your Majesty, Tianming may not have the strength to defeat Fengchen . My guess is the monster did it . After all, it comes from the Tomb of the Ancients . ” Meng Tingyu’s thoughts were shared by the people of the Divine Capital .

“That’s impossible . Even a Supreme God can’t survive for a hundred thousand years, let alone a monster,” the old man replied .

“It’s just a guess . Perhaps their race managed to survive to this day?”

“It is possible . In any case, keep an eye on it for me . When the time is right, I have to study it . “

“Yes, I’ll make sure it won’t escape Your Majesty’s hands,” said Meng Tingyu .

“When will the remaining three hundred thousand little fish arrive?” the old man asked .

“I’m doing my best to handle it . Transportation needs to be kept confidential, especially at this critical time . This matter must be well-concealed—”

“Give me a time,” the old man interrupted .

“I’m striving for two months,” she said nervously .

“Hurry up . I won’t be happy if you fail . ”

“I will!”

The old man nodded and smiled . Staring down at the people in Siege City, he muttered, “As expected, they’ve begun helping the ninth prince deal with the thirteenth . For an effortless victory and the death of my clan, they’ll certainly change the state of that thing . And once that happens, haha! I’ll succeed in doing what generations of my ancestors failed to do!”

Like a child, the old man bounced happily, having completely forgotten Dongyang Fengchen’s death .

……

The Nature Arts Hall .

Tianming guided Weisheng Yunxi along the long hallway, his feet tapping on the slab with each step .

“Palace Lord, how is Jiang Ling?” Tianming asked .

“He’s fine, emotionally stable, gentle, generous, and has his limits . He’s completely different from Dongyang Yun . His gentleness makes him unlike the rest of the Theocrats,” said Weisheng Yunxi .

“Is that why the Dao Palace is ready to support him as autarch?” asked Tianming .

“No . “

“Then why?”

“Because he’s weaker than Dongyang Yun . “

“So the plan is to support the weak first, defeat the strong, then destroy the weak?”

“You’re very clever . “

“Jiang Ling has guessed it too, hasn’t he?”

“Sure, but he must take the risk . He has no other choice . If he refuses, we’ll support Dongyang Yun instead . The Dao Palace is now stronger than Dongyang Yun’s party . Now that we’ve entered the game, Jiang Ling can only hope we won’t have the courage to take the last step . Anyway, he’s confident in his strength . After all, he doesn’t know that we have other cards up our sleeves,” said Weisheng Yunxi .

“What cards?” Tianming asked curiously .

“You’ll know when the time comes . ” Weisheng Yunxi smiled .

“Palace Lord, I’d like to fight for the dao palace,” said Tianming .

“Of course . You’re strong, and a pillar for the younger generation of the Decimo Dao Palace . Naturally, you’ll have to fight,” laughed Weisheng Yunxi .

“I’ve long been displeased with them,” he added .

Theocrats? They were nothing more than the vicious and greedy Nineshades Clan . The Divine City was a leech . While they grew ever more prosperous, the territories of the Theocracy continued declining . The Theocracy seized the resources of others for their own cultivation .

“We’re here . “

Weisheng Yunxi led him through a blue door . As soon as the door was closed, the world fell into darkness .

“This is the Night Reflection Room? It’s so dark,” said Tianming .

He couldn’t even see with his third eye, and was completely blind upon entering the room .

“It’s alright . My world has always been black,” replied Weisheng Yunxi .

“Master, when did Autarch Qian ruin your eyes?”

“When I demonstrated the ability to break through to Empyrean Saint . I was in my thirties and my parents were still alive . Unfortunately, I was too young and threatened his dao . Autarch Qian will not allow anyone to threaten the rule of the Theocrats . There are too many in the Decimo Dao Palace who have been harmed by him, like Ye Yi’s elder brother, who died in his hands,” Weisheng Yunxi explained .

“He really deserved to die . ”

“Well, let’s not talk about him . Now that you’ve entered the Night Reflection Room, pull out the Three-Thousand Starfield . I’ll teach you the Ninesilver Astral Art,” said Weisheng Yunxi .

“Palace Lord, this is one of the top empyrean battle arts in the Dao Palace and a secret of the Weisheng clan . I’m a little nervous to learn it,” Tianming admitted .

“Are you afraid you won’t be able to master it?”

“No, I’m afraid I’ll master it so quickly I’ll crush your self-esteem!”

“Hahaha . “

It wasn’t so often a gentle woman like Weisheng Yunxi burst out laughing .

“Don’t be a smart aleck . You were able to cultivate the Invincible Sword Body due to your superior physique and ability to endure hardships . However, extraordinary comprehension is required for an Earth Saint to cultivate an empyrean battle art . The pitch-black environment allows you to see your weapon and the starry sky more clearly . The Weisheng clan’s Ninesilver Astral Art is the supreme whip art throughout the entire Theocracy . You like the whip and possess a saint beastial weapon with ninety-nine saintly heavenly patterns . Its power is no worse than the Shenxiao Sword Art and the Invincible Sword Body put together .

“The Ninesilver Astral Art can also combine with the Invincible Sword Ki . Hence, your whip will be comparable to the Grand-Orient Sword and can even achieve a miraculous effect that the sword lacks . After all, different weapons have different strengths . Both you and Qingyu are smart to have chosen two types of weapons to cultivate,” she praised .

“After hearing you speak about it, I can’t wait to try,” Tianming said excitedly .

“Having desires is a good thing . But if you’re still as determined after learning the difficulties, then you’re one with a fierce will,” said Weisheng Yunxi .

“I understand!”

“Tianming, the Ninesilver Astral Art has three stances, namely Brilliant Stars, Chaos Galaxy, and Nine Stardust . The meanings of the three are completely different, each stance transcending the one before . This battle art can fully exert the power of the Three-Thousand Starfield . Even my Radiant Astral Chain only has ninety saintly heavenly patterns . You’re a lucky one,” she said .

“Apparently, good-looking people have good luck . I guess it’s because of my looks,” Tianming said .

“Stop fooling around . Soon, you’ll have to suffer . ”

Right then, the dark room turned as bright as day . A chain with white stripes that shone like stars appeared in Weisheng Yunxi’s hand . The darker the surroundings, the more the Radiant Astral Chain shone .

“Take a good look!” Weisheng Yunxi swung the chain .

Ninesilver Astral Art—Brilliant Stars!

At this point, Tianming mourned the fact that he had three eyes . Before he could glean anything, he was about to be blinded .

However, he was soon excited . Once he mastered the Ninesilver Astral Art, the Three-Thousand Starfield would be even more powerful . He stretched out a hand and the weapon appeared .

The blue beastial weapon resembled ninety-nine starfields, all connected together . The dazzling starlight completely surpassed the Radiant Astral Chain . From this day on, Tianming would cultivate the Invincible Sword Body and the Ninesilver Astral Art as the palace lord herself personally guided him in them .

The day the Decimo Dao Palace entered battle wasn’t far away . Since the Three-Thousand Starfield could kill across three kilometers, it would be of great use in the battlefield .

Amidst the large armies, beheading his enemies would be child’s play .
