1893 Chapter 1788, Space Lotus
The location of the windcloud ancient tomb was not a secret. Almost everyone in the windcloud Villa knew about it.
It was right under their feet!
Before the first windcloud Villa Master died, he used his great magic power to retrieve 18 huge meteorites and melted them into one before splitting them into two.
Half of them floated in the sky, which was the windcloud villa that they saw today.
The other half sank underground, which was the empty space right below the wind and cloud villa.
One of the two halves of the meteorite was in the sky, while the other was on the ground.
One was left for the living, while the other was left for the dead.
The two halves of the meteorite corresponded from afar, forming a passageway that could not be seen by the naked eye.
If one wanted to enter the ancient tomb, they could only use this passageway.
There had been people who wanted to break into the ancient tomb from the outside world over the years, but none of them had succeeded. To be exact, those who dared to try did not come back alive.
This was because the meteorites in the ancient tomb formed their own body, and the surface of their bodies was flowing with nothingness. The slightest contact with it would immediately be devoured by nothingness.
The method of forcefully breaking through the meteorites did not work at all.
The only way was through the passageway.
At this moment, Su Yu and the others were right above the passageway.
It was also the small courtyard of the manor head, a well-preserved ancient restriction.
After using a hundred precious high-grade divine stones, the restriction was finally activated, and they were instantly teleported away.
When they reappeared, they had already arrived at the surface of the meteorite from the sky through the passage.
A layer of light-filled seal appeared before everyone’s eyes.
Looking at this seal, Su Yu was secretly astonished.
The Master of the Azure Underworld Mansion also revealed a look of surprise as he praised, “I’ve long heard that the first generation Windcloud Manor’s manor head has heaven-defying laws, and his strength is heaven-piercing and earth-shattering. He’s on par with the Dark King. Now that I’ve seen it, it’s as expected!”
There was one thing that he did not mention in order to avoid unnecessary conflicts.
That was, the first-generation master of the windcloud Villa was the only non-member of the Dark Moon clan among the ten great factions.
One could imagine how difficult it would be for a non-member of the Dark Star clan to establish a foothold in the dark star civilization without a powerful and invincible faction?
It was also because of this that the ancient tomb had been preserved for so long that even the three crowns were unable to shake it.
The seal before them was a four crowned emperor level seal. Under normal circumstances, even if the leaders of the ten great factions gathered together, they would not be able to forcefully break it open.
Now, there were some problems that allowed them to barely open it.
“Look, there is a gap in the middle of the seal, and that is the weak point of the seal. If it was in the past, I could have directly used my ancestral technique to remove the seal and expand that weak point, forming a passage for one person to pass through. But now, look...”the manor head took out an extremely ancient jade ruyi, he pointed at the weak point across space.
Immediately, the seal shook and the weak point rapidly expanded to the height of half a person.
But then, it trembled unstably and closed again.
“That’s it. The ancestral method to open the seal is no longer effective.”The manor head frowned deeply, he said helplessly, “The only way is for me to open the level of half a person. Then, the five of us will work together to stabilize it and give all of us time to pass through.”
Other than the five leaders, there were also the Saintess, Gu Xing, and the Manor Head’s wife who would enter.
There were a total of eight people.
The people present did not hesitate much about this.
The only person that the wind and Cloud Manor Head was worried about was the moon worship sect master, he said, “Your cultivation base is the weakest among us. If you can’t hold on, please let us know in advance so that we can be prepared. Otherwise, if anyone is stuck in the middle of the seal, they will be turned into ashes.”
No wonder he was indifferent to the moon worship sect master. It turned out that the moon worship sect master had become a burden when the seal was opened.
“I understand.”Su Yu didn’t say anything more.
The Sword Sealing Pavilion Master was also a little worried. He frowned and said, “Sect master, why don’t you postpone it?”
What if the Moon Worship Sect Master couldn’t hold on and caused the seal to shrink? The one who would be hurt would be himself and not others.
The saintess said coldly, “Why? Everyone has signed the five sects alliance. Why should our moon worship sect fall last?”
Who knew if they would harbor evil intentions and close the seal after they entered first.
“Let’s postpone it then.”Su Yu patted her shoulder and said calmly, “Don’t worry too much. We already have the advantage by entering two people. What’s the harm in being a little behind?”
The Holy Maiden rolled her eyes at him. She had to give way to everything!
“Let’s do it this way,”Su Yu said.
Just like that, everyone prepared for a while. They looked at each other and attacked at the same time.
In an instant, four majestic waves of primal energy surged like a raging sea, rolling endlessly.
The most powerful one was the Windcloud Manor Head. His primal energy alone was equal to half of the total energy present.
Next was the sword sealing pavilion head, who was on par with the Green Nether Manor Head.
Next was master Bao Kun. His primal energy was the weakest, just a tiny bit.
After all, he was just a puppet. What made him strong was his physique, not his primal energy.
Only Su Yu did not emit any primal energy from his body.
The other three looked at the moon worship sect master and Master Bao Kun in surprise. Something was not right with these two.
However, the primal energy was only a symbol of one’s realm. Their true abilities still depended on their grasp of the laws.
Chi --
The Wind Cloud Manor Head was the first to act. After Yu Ruyi opened up the half-man passage, a law chain the size of a human condensed in his palm and flew over, holding up the passage that was about to compress. It even expanded by a third!
The Sword Sealing Pavilion Master and the Green Nether Manor Head acted at the same time. Their law chains were much thinner than the wind cloud manor Head’s. However, when they worked together, they were comparable to the wind cloud manor head and expanded the passage by another third.
Afterwards, it was master Bao Kun who attacked. He did not use his nomological laws. Instead, he laughed loudly and said, “I’ve recently gained some insights from cultivating my physique. I’ll show them to everyone.”
When one reached the world emperor stage, the most powerful thing would be the nomological chains. A casual attack would have the power to destroy the world.
There were some who cultivated their physique alone. However, they were extremely rare.
Feng Yun Villa Master and the other two had strange expressions on their faces. They actually cultivated their physique?
The sword sealing pavilion master growled, “It’s still safer to use the law. If we use our physique now and spoil our plans, what should we do?”
Master Bao Kun didn’t say anything. He rushed to the front of the seal. His wide sleeves revealed a pair of metal-colored fists that supported the tunnel. With a creak, one-third of the tunnel was opened.
Thus, the tunnel that was half the height of a person became two people’s height. It was enough to allow others to pass through.
The eyes of the wind and Cloud Manor Head and the others narrowed slightly, revealing a trace of vigilance. With such a strong physique, coupled with the laws, wouldn’t master Bao Kun’s overall strength increase by leaps and bounds?
Without the moon worship sect master taking action, the tunnel was completely opened.
The manor head said, “The three of you go first. We’ll follow.”
The saintess, Gu Xing, and the Manor Head’s wife nodded and quickly passed through the tunnel in turn.
The Manor Head took the lead and immediately rushed over. However, he was still maintaining the support of the nomological chains at the other end, ensuring that the tunnel would not compress.
However, he could already see traces of pressure on the Manor Head’s face. It was somewhat strenuous to hold on for such a short period of time.
After all, this was a seal at the level of the four crowns. The four of them were working together to withstand the pressure.
“Quick, this seal is no trifling matter. We can’t delay it for too long,”the Manor Head of the plain wind cloud manor shouted.
The pavilion head of the sealed sword pavilion shouted loudly and immediately flew over. He was also trying his best to hold on, and traces of difficulty appeared on his face.
Next was the Master of the Azure Underworld Palace, followed by Master Bao Kun.
When only Su Yu was left, the entire tunnel started to tremble, and the three chains started to creak, showing signs of being compressed.
Master Bao Kun continued to growl, and the compressed tunnel continued to suppress him.
“Quick!”The wind cloud villa master roared, “We can’t hold on much longer!”
Su Yu nodded and instantly flew towards the tunnel.
However, just as he was about to pass through the passageway, the people inside cried out in alarm, “Retreat quickly, we can’t hold on much longer!”
The Windcloud Manor Lord was the first to withdraw the law chains that he could no longer bear. If he continued to hold on any longer, his chains would completely shatter, causing law damage to appear.
Once he withdrew, the sword sealing pavilion master and the green underworld mansion master naturally wouldn’t hold on any longer and withdrew their chains as well.
Only Master Bao Kun was able to hold on for a moment before he had no choice but to withdraw and retreat.
Instantly, the human-sized passageway bounced back almost instantly and closed once more.
As for Su Yu, he had just stepped into half of his body. He could neither retreat nor advance. He was stuck in the middle.
“Ah!”Seeing this scene, the Holy Maiden cried out in shock. Her heart was filled with fury.
As expected, the worst had happened!
They were unable to hold on until the end!
Moreover, it just so happened that the moon worship sect leader was stuck in the middle. He was about to be crushed into nothingness by the seal.
Everyone watched helplessly as the seal closed up.
It was truly a pity that the first moon worship sect leader had died in such a muddled manner.
However, what made their eyes widen was that the passageway that was about to close up was actually forcefully opened up!
They fixed their gaze and saw a lotus flower that was filled with the power of space, its petals blooming one after another.
Every time it bloomed, it would prop up the collapsed sealed passageway by an inch.
When more than a hundred petals bloomed, the entire passageway would be able to prop up a person’s height!
However, the moon worship sect master’s figure was already nowhere to be seen.
“Where is he?”The Palace Master of the Azure Underworld Palace asked in shock. At this moment, even his aura had disappeared without a trace. He had completely disappeared.
The Pavilion Master of the sword sealing pavilion stared at the lotus flower with a profound gaze. His eyes were filled with shock and bewilderment. “He wasn’t able to open the passage in time and was crushed, right?”
The Master of the Wind Cloud Manor stared at the lotus flower with even more shock.
Those layers of blooming space flowers should be a sign of the great success of space laws, right?
The moon worship sect master actually had such terrifying attainments in space laws!
Fortunately, he should be dead. Otherwise, he would be a big trouble in the future.
The completion of any one of the eight profound meanings had unlimited potential.
He died well!
Crack --
After ten breaths of stalemate, the seal suddenly shrank, crushing the space lotus into nothingness.
The Moon Worship Cult Master never appeared again. His aura also disappeared from the human world.
Without a doubt, he should be dead.
The Holy Maiden’s expression was quite unsightly. He was actually... dead.
She was the only one left. Wouldn’t it be as difficult as ascending to the heavens to obtain all the star stones?
The atmosphere suddenly became heavy, and it also became much gloomier.
The Master of the Wind Cloud Manor let out a long sigh. “Everyone, let’s go. We can’t let the Moon Worship Sect Master’s death be in vain!”
The other people nodded one after another, and they looked at the ancient tomb squarely.
The ancient tomb wasn’t big. In the pitch-black stone room, eighty-one grooves had been dug out, and in each groove was a bronze coffin that stood upright.
The ages were different, many of them had already decayed, and some of them could be considered brand new.
Inside were all the past Windcloud Manor heads.
The holy maiden surveyed her surroundings and said, “What a mystical arrangement. Every groove is connected, and it actually formed the sixty-four transformations of Heavenly Dipper. With the help of the eight trigrams, it can be said that with just a single step, there would be a transformation.”
