Yu Ziqing didn't have the heart to expose King Xiang, and clearly, the County Magistrate of Jiayin City, Xu Yang, also had no intention of dwelling on it further since he would need King Xiang's help later on.
When Yu Ziqing, an outsider, asked that question, it brought many things to Xu Yang's mind.
To stop that teor, it would take at least a Ninth Tier Strong one to take action.
And it had to be done by finding a way to stop it in advance.
Otherwise, when the teor, enveloped in flas and moving as fast as tunneling light, fell to the ground, not even a Ninth Tier Cultivator could stop it.
On their way back to Jiayin City, Yu Ziqing took the opportunity to explain to King Xiang.
"Everything here is actually within a Sealing, either break through the Sealing to leave, or resolve the impending disaster that will occur."
Yu Ziqing didn't ntion the An History Book, nor did he let on that he had actually received the Big Seal from the County Magistrate of Dinghai City.
This matter had extensive implications.
And after all, King Xiang was the King Xiang of Dazhen.
He had to consider issues from his own perspective, from the standpoint of Dazhen, just as his decision to help was because it was sothing he had to do from his own perspective.
To prevent certain issues that shouldn't arise, Yu Ziqing could only keep this matter to himself, not wishing anyone outside of Jinlan Mountain's own to know.
Otherwise, it might create difficulties for everyone involved in case sothing happened later.
Following their return to Jiayin City, Xu Yang had already rembered many things.
"I rember now, I seem to have died, right?"
Yu Ziqing was silent for a mont before nodding.
"Yes."
Xu Yang showed no sign of sadness on his face; looking at everything around him, he even seed sowhat relieved.
"I died but am still living within the Sealing, which proves I succeeded, thus allowing to wait for your arrival."
"Do you rember anything else?"
"I do. I rember that teor suddenly appearing in the nine heavens, completely undetected by anyone beforehand. By the ti I noticed, it was too late.
That teor, after being tempered through the nine heavens, beca nearly indestructible. When it swept down from the sky, wrapped in formidable power, like a streak of tunneling light, so fast we were unable to prevent it.
I burned all my lifespan to finally seal it, leaving behind a glimr of hope."
Xu Yang calculated the ti and extended two fingers.
"In two days, at 15 minutes past midnight, that is when the teor will appear. The only chance is within three breaths after its appearance; any later than three breaths, and it will be tempered to the point of indestructibility.
Once it lands, it will be refined to an extent that it can hardly be shattered. I don't know what material it is made of, so be careful."
Yu Ziqing actually wanted to ask if anyone else had co before.
If there was a way to know the ti of the teor's appearance in advance, a Ninth Tier Strong one might have a great chance of stopping it.
Yet, so many years have passed, and according to records, the timing of this teor's appearance was still in the first half of the An History Book; why hadn't Dadui resolved it yet?
Yu Ziqing was puzzled, but he grew more vigilant.
It definitely wasn't that simple.
Two days later, King Xiang soared high into the sky, crossing the Gang Wind Layer to reach above the nine heavens.
Yu Ziqing didn't go up to drag him down, as the Gang Wind there was as sharp as knives and an absolute Forbidden Land. His physical body, if it were to endure the Gang Wind of the nine heavens, might not last long even against the weakest of them.
Xu Yang, along with hundreds of Cultivators, also set up a Heaven and Earth Net in the high sky, waiting to intercept the teor.
By midnight, even before the 15-minute mark, the expression on King Xiang's face in the Nine Heavens Gang Wind Layer suddenly changed.
He saw a teor with a diater of tens of miles suddenly reveal a corner, as if it had broken through a boundary, bringing great power with it as it squeezed out of an unknown space and erged high in the air.
Without hesitation, King Xiang didn't wait for the formidable power wrapped around the teor to burst forth, speeding up to a terrifying degree. Golden light flickered at his fingertips, the sharp aura emanating powerfully as his whole being beca like a sword, rushing towards the teor from the side.
The best thod of interception was to use all his strength to directly shatter the teor before it had been tempered.
If it were to break apart, then even if the remaining fragnts were tempered by the Nine Heavens Gang Wind, the ones that could possibly make it to the ground would be very few, and the destructiveness would drop to an acceptable level.
However, as he turned into a golden arrow and struck the teor, his strength began to rapidly decline. A full-force strike only managed to bore a gouge about a mile deep into the teor.
The mont his body made contact with the teor, his strength seed to be greatly suppressed. The True Yuan overflowing from his body shattered into smithereens, and his Secret Technique crumbled into Geng tal Qi.
Unable to stabilize his form, he plumted downwards.
In an instant, his body was covered in wounds, and so protective magical treasures he couldn't even use automatically activated, shielding him from the knife-like Gang Wind.
After falling for tens of miles, the True Yuan within him finally returned to normal, sufficient to overflow from his body and enable him to use his Escape Skill.
By this ti, the teor, tens of miles in diater, had already started to brighten up, resembling a gigantic flaming fireball.
The teor began falling from the nine heavens into the Gang Wind Layer, shrinking as it underwent the tempering of flas and Gang Wind.
King Xiang sighed, looking at the teor as it effortlessly breached Xu Yang's blockade, and then he transford into a tunneling light, zooming toward the ground.
