Capítulo 1274: Chapter 1259: Heavenly Temple Spirit Master
Re-entering through the deep city gate passage of Luoyi and stepping onto the Dragon Swimming Plain outside the city, an indescribable sense of ease surfaced in Ye Zhen’s heart.
Although Luoyi was incomparably bustling and the concentration of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi was more than ten tis that of the Dragon Swimming Plain, there was an omnipresent sense of oppression, as if even breathing was being suppressed.
Traveling swiftly on the Dragon Swimming Plain, where the air was perated with a refreshing fragrance, Ye Zhen searched for a suitable place to conceal himself.
Suddenly, on the road ahead, appeared a Daoist dressed in a robe, barefooted, and flying along with wide sleeves fluttering, instantly drawing Ye Zhen’s attention.
As the Daoist advanced, it was as if there were thunder beneath his feet; with each step he took, there was a faint sound of wind and thunder. His pace was extrely rapid, yet this Daoist saluted the descendants of ancient relics working in the fields on either side of the road, causing the old farrs to return the gesture one after another.
“A mysterious Taoist!”
This was Ye Zhen’s first thought upon seeing the Daoist. Moreover, in Ye Zhen’s perception, this Daoist was not just a mysterious figure but an incredible master.
Because Ye Zhen could not sense this Daoist’s cultivation aura at all.
Shocked, Ye Zhen proactively stepped aside to the roadside, giving way to the Daoist.
But to Ye Zhen’s surprise, this Daoist, as he passed by, stopped beside Ye Zhen and gracefully gave him a ceremonial bow.
“May I ask if you are General Ye Zhen, known as the Peace General?” The Daoist’s voice was firm, each word seed like a thunderclap, piercing into Ye Zhen’s Spirit Mansion, making him dizzy.
Speaking out Ye Zhen’s full na imdiately made Ye Zhen extrely vigilant. Ye Zhen suddenly had a premonition that this Daoist possibly ca specifically for him.
“I am he. May I know who you are, master?” Ye Zhen cautiously returned the salute.
“I am Spirit Master Hexiao from the Heavenly Temple, here to et General Ye!”
The words ‘Heavenly Temple’ instinctively made Ye Zhen take two steps back.
Since Ye Zhen ca to the Primordial Continent, he had heard countless legends of the Heavenly Temple. This was the first ti he encountered a revered Spirit Master from the Heavenly Temple as spoken of in legend.
It is said every Spirit Master of the Heavenly Temple is an envoy of the divine, walking the world, espousing the path of supre goodness and spreading the radiance of the gods.
Of course, such words might fool ordinary common folk, but they cannot deceive soone like Ye Zhen. As a force influential enough to impact the Great Zhou Empire, one with significant sway within it—the Heavenly Temple—is certainly not as simple as legend makes it out to be.
“Master, what is your purpose in seeking ?” Ye Zhen cautiously inquired.
Hexiao’s wide sleeves folded together, “A month ago, General Ye displayed divine prowess and slew 937 of our Heavenly Temple’s Thunderclap Sacred Guards, causing the grievances of those 937 souls to wail nightly within the Heavenly Temple.
Recently, His Highness from the Thunder Hall sent word for to co to the secular world, and invite General Ye to the Heavenly Temple to dispel the grievances of the 937 Thunderclap Sacred Guards!”
Ye Zhen’s expression suddenly beca extrely unpleasant. He hadn’t anticipated that his first encounter with the Heavenly Temple’s people was to be trouble for him.
Even more laughable was Hexiao’s excuse. The Thunderclap Sacred Guards slain by Ye Zhen, the majority didn’t even have their Divine Souls escape, let alone grievances wailing.
The fact that such an excuse could even be used shows just how shaless the Heavenly Temple’s conduct could be imagined to be.
Ye Zhen, having been through countless storms, with a cold deanor asked, “You want to go to the Heavenly Temple to dispel grievances, may I ask, Master, how should it be dispelled?”
“Those Thunderclap Sacred Guards were the most faithful protectors, the most steadfast believers of the Heavenly Temple. Everything about them was to protect the Heavenly Temple.
If General Ye is willing to inherit their will and accept our Heavenly Temple’s secret technique refinent, becoming our Heavenly Temple’s Thunderclap Battle General, naturally, their grievances could be cleansed!” Hexiao said.
Upon hearing this, anger flashed wildly in Ye Zhen’s pupils.
He knew what the Heavenly Temple’s Battle General ant.
It was a thod the Heavenly Temple used to refine and cultivate strong martial artists into puppets through secret techniques.
Once martial artists were refined into such puppets, despite retaining their cultivation aptitude and being able to enhance their cultivation, their physical bodies would beco imnsely powerful.
However, during the refinent and cultivation process, these martial artists would completely lose their emotions and desires, becoming Heavenly Temple Battle Generals who retained consciousness but were unwaveringly loyal to the Heavenly Temple.
In the docunts within the Marquis Xingqing, these Heavenly Temple Battle Generals are labeled as Battle General Puppets.
“What if I refuse?” Ye Zhen’s Spiritual Power surged to the extre in an instant.
Hexiao glanced disdainfully at Ye Zhen, as if Ye Zhen’s act of mobilizing spiritual power for battle preparation didn’t concern him in the slightest.
“If General Ye refuses, then I will take General Ye’s heart, liver, and lungs, along with a bucket of warm blood, to water the Thunderclap Sacred Peak, and grievances shall be dispelled!”
As these murderous words were spoken, Ye Zhen’s Spiritual Power imdiately surged to the utmost, his eyes flashing with ferocity.
Regardless of how Ye Zhen’s Spiritual Power surged around him, Hexiao rely watched him quietly as if looking at a pig awaiting slaughter, performing its final struggle.
A silhouette appearing, Ye Zhen imdiately conjured six Mirage Avatars!
“Under the glory of the Lord of Thunderclap, all illusions are but bubbles!” As the Mirage Avatars just appeared, Hexiao softly chanted, causing the five Mirage Avatars conjured by Ye Zhen to burst like bubbles simultaneously.
“Master, is this the divine skills of the Heavenly Temple?” Ye Zhen sneered.
“General Ye, you’d better not resist! Beco the Thunderclap Battle General of our Heavenly Temple Thunder Hall, accumulate enough achievents, and you might beco an immortal being!” Hexiao advised again, with a sincere look.
“An immortal puppet, right?” Ye Zhen retorted.
“Since General Ye already knows, then why resist? It’s better to return to the Heavenly Temple with ; the Thunderclap Battle General, after all, is an immortal Primordial Soul!”
With a long shout, a Thunderclap giant hand suddenly extended from behind Hexiao’s head, with a booming thunder sound, reaching out to grasp Ye Zhen like a canopy.
“Immortal your old mother!”
With a roar, Ye Zhen retreated, and the Black Scale Dragon Whip, forged from dragon scales, lashed out toward the Thunderclap giant hand like a black lightning bolt.
An unimaginable force transmitted from the tip of the Black Scale Dragon Whip, causing it to bounce high, and blood flowed from Ye Zhen’s tiger mouth.
“Speaking such foul words surely deserves tongue punishnt, General Ye!” Hexiao sneered, rushing toward Ye Zhen.
“That would require soone capable of pulling it out!”
A Fire Dragon, entirely condensed from Green Fla Skyfire, roared fiercely as it t and clashed with the Thunderclap giant hand.
But the Thunderclap giant hand casually crushed Ye Zhen’s Green Fla Skyfire in a re instant.
“Such ager thods?” Hexiao sneered coldly, continuing to press the Thunderclap giant hand down towards Ye Zhen.
After weighing the situation, Ye Zhen abandoned the idea of using physical attacks. Hexiao’s cultivation was terrifying; if caught by that Thunderclap giant hand, escape would be troubleso.
With this thought, all the Spirit Pillars within Ye Zhen’s Mansion began to flicker madly. Under the frenzied conversion of the Five Elents Yin Yang Spirit Mansion, all the spiritual power instantly transford into a massive amount of Thunder Spirit Power.
It was then completely infused into the Acquired Spirit Treasure Thunder Light Pearl.
If the mid-grade suppressing device level, with its thousand Dao Patterns, Thunder Light Pearl couldn’t harm Hexiao, Ye Zhen was uncertain what thod could injure Hexiao.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Thick, faint purple Thunderclaps surged like torrents, bombarding Hexiao’s Thunderclap giant hand, shattering it instantly.
Hexiao’s eyes bulged out in disbelief, “Acquired Spirit Treasure!”
“An Acquired Spirit Treasure that has reached the suppressing device level—this must be the real reason you could kill those Thunderclap Sacred Guards! Bring it to the Daoist!”
Unimaginable Thunderclap brilliance suddenly rose around Hexiao, and within monts, a Daoist robe entirely composed of Thunderclaps ford around him, radiating thunderous light.
In Hexiao’s hand, a strangely shaped hamr wrapped in thunder suddenly appeared; a light shake, and it reford into a giant Thunderclap hand, covering Ye Zhen overhead.
Ye Zhen gasped.
The strange hamr in Hexiao’s hand was clearly a low-grade suppressing artifact, and the Thunderclap hand ford by Hexiao wielding the suppressing artifact was more than twice as powerful as the casual Thunderclap hand from before.
With a thought, the Thunder Light Pearl unleashed a thick purple Thunderclap brilliance, instantly causing countless cracks on Hexiao’s Thunderclap hand.
Hexiao lightly shook the suppressing artifact hamr, and countless Thunderclaps surged out, causing the Thunderclap hand to radiate intensely.
Almost simultaneously, the Thunder Light Pearl above Ye Zhen’s head withdrew, and Ye Zhen vanished from the ground.
After exchanging a few rounds with Hexiao, Ye Zhen was only left with a deep sense of powerlessness.
Thus, Ye Zhen wisely chose to flee.
The Five Elents Infinite Escape Technique was exceedingly quick; once underground, Ye Zhen rapidly escaped forward. Ye Zhen did not believe that once underground, Hexiao would be helpless against him.
Above ground, Hexiao sneered coldly as Ye Zhen disappeared, “Divine Power thod, indeed it has so rit! But before this Daoist, it’s not enough!”
With a cold laugh, Hexiao raised the Thunderclap Hamr, his entire being transforming into a strand of thunder light, violently drilling underground following Ye Zhen’s aura.
Just as Ye Zhen was pondering how to shake off Hexiao, an overwhelmingly domineering aura emanated from behind him. Turning back, Ye Zhen saw the thunder light rapidly closing in on him.
By Ye Zhen’s estimate, at this speed, Hexiao would catch up within ten breaths.
Panic-stricken, Ye Zhen suddenly felt emptiness beneath his feet, as he descended into the space above an underground river.
Without hesitation, Ye Zhen dived headfirst into the underground river.
Entering the dark river, Ye Zhen instantly felt a sense of a dragon returning to the sea, as the aura of Black Dragon Water Spirit Power slowly dispersed; Ye Zhen’s speed in water reached its peak.
The sizzling eruptive sound resonated as Hexiao, transford into thunder light, also plunged into the underground river, spreading thunder through the waves, imdiately causing a layer of dead fish and shrimp to float atop the water.
In the water, Ye Zhen held a great advantage, and for the short term, Hexiao couldn’t catch Ye Zhen.
While fleeing for his life, Ye Zhen quickly calculated how to deal with Hexiao!
