Chapter 558 Perfect Breakthrough, Transformation Void Martial Stage!
Bao Bao and Lone disguised themselves among these spiritual beasts and concealed their talents. When they arrived at the gate, they discovered that a defensive line had been set up, in spite of having been destroyed.
Shakyamuni Jin Xu took two Elders of the Profound Void Martial Stage and ten Core disciples to set the defense line and were to guard it.
When they saw large groups of spiritual beasts were rushing to get out of the Heavenly Sun Mountain, of course they would not allow them to break through the checkpoint.
Being an elite warrior of the Perfect Void Martial Stage, Shakyamuni Jin Xu held a high position at the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. Certainly he had ranked in the top ten.
As he straightened up a giant wolf ivory club, he displayed the formidability of how one man could hold the pass against ten thousand enemies.
At least several hundred spiritual beasts continued their charge. When they saw Shakyamuni Jin Xu blocking the pass, all of them spoke loudly and became noisy. They roared at the Shakyamuni in protest.
"What are you guys doing?"
"Get away from there, we are leaving here!"
"Get lost, don’t block the path! The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect is powerless to defend itself, why would you care about us?"
There were many elite warriors among these spiritual beasts and they could also speak the language of human beings. Clearly, they were annoyed when they saw Shakyamuni Jin Xu blocking their path.
"Everyone, the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect has settled down and are on the pursuit of the perpetrators. In the event of a disaster, we should work together." Shakyamuni Jin Xu had deliberately dispersed his spiritual qi to intimidate these spiritual beasts.
Among these spiritual beasts, some were also at the Profound Void Martial Stage. Some of them even possess the strength to break into the Perfect Void Martial Stage.
Of course, they would not be cowed by the temperament of Shakyamuni Jin Xu.
The Tiger King of the Profound Void Martial Stage said with a cold sneer: "Bear the disaster together, but what are the benefits? How come the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect takes all the benefits for themselves?"
"That’s right, you are Shakyamuni Jin Xu, we know who you are. You do possess good strength. But do you think with you few people alone, you are able to stop an attack from all of us?"
Inwardly, Shakyamuni Jin Xu truly lacked confidence. He could deal with a few spiritual beasts at the Profound Void Martial Stage. But if all hundreds of spiritual beasts charged at them like a stormy tide, he would not be able to stop them by himself.
Besides the two Elders, the core disciples did not possess the power to kill them for the time being.
Normally, these spiritual beasts would not be able to get out of the Nine Refined Mysterious Wind Valley and the Wolf Ivory Peak. Each place had its’ own formation that controlled and restricted the movements of the spiritual beasts.
However, with the Subduing Devil Stone Tablet destroyed, all the formations had self-destructed. These spiritual beasts were free of restraints. To them, it was an opportunity for freedom, how could they miss it?
"Jin Xu, if you are to stop us by force, then don’t blame us for not holding back!" Now, these beasts were incredibly impetuous.
Apparently, the fear of the recent great calamity and their longing for freedom had made them incredibly violent. It appeared as if they would become hostile immediately if something did not go according to their will.
Shakyamuni Jin Xu immediately contacted Zuo Lengshuang and asked for reinforcement.
As soon as Zuo Lengshuang heard how several hundred of the spiritual beasts were trying to break through the checkpoint, he drew a breath of cold air. Then, he ordered: "Stop them, you must stop them!"
Shakyamuni Jin Xu also felt irritated. Stop them? That was easier said than done. With several hundreds of spiritual beasts rushing at them like a flood, who would be able to stop them?
In the worst case scenario, these ten core disciples, and even the two Elders would die in this place. When he turned around to look at them, although the two Elders tried to appear calm, the ten core disciples all revealed a pale expression. Despite trying to conceal their fear, through a glance at their eyes, he could see that they were terrified from the bottom of their heart. Clearly, they did not hold any confidence nor fighting spirit in this situation when they had just escaped from a major disaster.
Shakyamuni Jin Xu held the wolf ivory club tightly and was about to speak. Suddenly, Elder Luo Shu from behind sent a message through his spiritual perception: "Shakyamuni Jin Xu, those core disciples are on the verge of collapse. They cannot fight against them. I am afraid they cannot even hold back the first wave of attacks!"
Bao Bao and Lone shouted from the beast groups: "Let’s go everyone, Jin Xu is delaying for time. If we do not go for it, when those elite warriors of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect come back, we will not be able to escape!"
"Let’s go, it would be death if we don’t! If we do, everyone will have the hopes of becoming free! Could it be all of you wish to stay at the Heavenly Sun Mountain, and remain enslaved by the sect?"
"Go, go."
Indeed, the temper of the beasts had reached the brink of explosion. The slightest little thing could completely unleash their urge and their natural instincts.
With the encouragement of Bao Bao and Lone, all the beasts charged forward carried a formidable might like a tide breaking through a dam.
Each of the beasts were intelligent. As if the powerful current was divided into two waves, all of them stormed forward while keeping away from Shakyamuni Jin Xu.
Shakyamuni Jin Xu tightly gripped the wolf ivory club and made up his mind: "Do not move, let them go!"
At the most crucial moment, Shakyamuni Jin Xu suppressed the urge to fight them. He knew that if he were to make a move, he was capable of taking down many of the beasts.
However, even if he could kill ten or twenty beasts, with regards to their numbers that was in the hundreds, his actions would be insignificant. Yet, if they rushed to fight them, certainly none of the ten core disciples would survive!
The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect in the present moment could not afford any more losses! Shakyamuni Jin Xu held the wolf ivory club and gritted his teeth. He watched those beasts rushing forward with a pair of fiery eyes.
Since people of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect did not initiate an attack, of course the beasts would not invite troubles onto themselves. In the end, this battle that was on the verge of breaking out had ended without any casualties.
Elder Luo Shu walked up and said in a low voice: "Shakyamuni, if you are to get punished for letting them go, I am willing to bear the punishment with you."
Luo Meng, the other Elder also walked over: "Count me in."
Those ten core disciples also walked over with a face full of embarrassment and gratitude. Although it was inappropriate for them to voice their gratitude out loud, they were extremely thankful to Shakyamuni Jin Xu.
If he had not given the order to stay put, they would have had to stop the beasts. Even if would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, or throwing the eggs at the stones, they would have to execute the order.
The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had instilled in their members a set of strict and impartial discipline. When an order was given, as long as they were still breathing, they had to carry out the order. However, if they had attempted to stop the beasts, it was clear that they would have been powerless when facing several hundreds vicious beasts. The only outcome for them would be getting torn into pieces!
Therefore, when Shakyamuni Jin Xu had ordered them to not stop the beasts, he had saved their lives. To the Shakyamuni, he had defied the order of the Fourth Dao Warrior.
...
Inside that deep abyss, the movements of the surrounding spiritual qi did not seem to slow down. Instead, the qi continued to move even more violently and press against Qin Wushuang’s wall of protection.
He felt that in general, he was like a lonely boat drifting in the vast sea. At the same time when the movements of the spiritual qi was squeezing Qin Wushuang, it also made him aware of being in a training environment filled with the highest purity of spiritual qi.
This secluded space resembled as a spiritual qi container. Despite shutting him inside, the container had an unimaginable amount of rich and pure spiritual qi.
Qin Wushuang had never heard or seen such environment filled with spiritual qi. Initially, he had utilized his own power to resist the qi coming from all direction.
The more he resisted, the more violently the qi had moved. He decided to change his method and instead guide them into his body.
Qin Wushuang had never imagined that this new method he chose would present such unusual results. Under his guidance, the rich spiritual qi started to fuse with his Dantian. This fusion continually made his Primordial Spirit stronger. It resembled a silkworm extruding silk. When silk were extruded continuously, the cocoon formed also becomes bigger.
Qin Wushuang’s Primordial Spirit was precisely the same. Suddenly, a familiar feeling gave rise to an exciting thought—He was about to break through!
Indeed, with the spiritual qi rushing into Qin Wushuang from all directions and fusing with his Dantian, it had pushed his Primordial Spirit to a new stage and height.
Transformation Void Martial Stage!
Finally, it had arrived at last! A stream of warm currents flowed all around Qin Wushuang’s body and made all of his limbs feel incredibly comfortable. Above the Refined Void, there was the Transformation Void.
Although it was a small breakthrough within the Void Martial Stage, to Qin Wushuang, it was one of the greatest obstacles in his life. This event seemed especially significant at today’s crucial juncture.
Perhaps, the difference between one stage and one layer of strength meant the difference between life and death. Qin Wushuang enjoyed the pleasure brought to him by the breakthrough. While the spiritual qi inside his body set off his Primordial Spirit, it allowed Qin Wushuang to experience the wonderful part of the Transformation Void Martial Stage.
At this moment, Qin Wushuang had pushed all his worries and lingering thoughts to the back of his mind. He had to seize the opportunity and consolidate his Transformation Void Martial Stage. Especially since he was in this environment filled with abundant spiritual qi, some extra hard work could result in a rich harvest.
This environment could be said to be the most unique reward to Qin Wushuang. It was a rich reward bestowed to him in the event of a setback.
"It seems that the Subduing Devil Stone Tablet is the place with the most abundant spiritual qi in the Heavenly Sun Mountain. It’s truly strange. The difference between each place at the same mountain has such a gigantic difference?"
The movements of the spiritual qi beneath the Subduing Devil Stone Tablet had left Qin Wushuang stunned. He almost could not believe that a place with such rich spiritual qi existed in the world. Each strand of air in this place seemed to be filled with spiritual qi.
What he didn’t know was that the Subduing Devil Stone Tablet was located on the ruins of an ancient battlefield. It was a sealed formation and known as the eye connected to the spiritual source under the ground!
This unexpected harvest had helped Qin Wushuang to achieve a perfect breakthrough! One must say that all things in nature were magical as the gains and losses could not be predicted.
After the Subduing Devil Stone Tablet had collapsed, Qin Wushuang was certain that he would be dead when he had been instantly swallowed by that vortex of power. How could he know that something like this would happen?
One was bound for good fortune after surviving a great disaster!
Inside Qin Wushuang’s head, he suddenly thought of these words.
