441: Chapter 99: Deity Takes a Seat_1 441: Chapter 99: Deity Takes a Seat_1 Actually, after Qing Qishu left, Jiang Wang did not go to sleep either.
Although Qing Qishu had said that sleeping in the fruit house could prevent one from being attacked by the “night” of the Forest Sea Source Realm, and that the naturally ford fruit house did not repel the Holy Tribe’s Heroic Spirits,
and although he indeed felt so fatigue after passing through the Hidden Snake territory and arriving at the Divine Shade Land, which needed to be alleviated by rest…
Jiang Wang still insisted on spending the rest of the night in cultivation.
It was not his first ti dealing with “Jade Balance”; originally, the Jade Balance Peak in San Shan City was also nad after Jade Balance.
At first, he simply thought that it was the root of San Shan City’s troubles; later, he discovered that people from the Procuratorate in Zhuang Country were stationed at Jade Balance.
What was supposedly a den of Fierce Beasts actually had the shadow of Zhuang Country behind it.
He then learned that the production of Channel-opening Pills might be related to Fierce Beasts.
Everything Zhuang Country did at Jade Balance Peak seed to be out of righteousness, but in reality, it devastated the citizens of San Shan City.
With Miao Yu’s guidance, Jiang Wang toppled Jade Balance, seemingly achieving justice and saving the people of San Shan City, but the result appeared to be detrintal to the entire Zhuang Country.
Real or fake, good or evil, it was hard to distinguish.
Upon reflection, it truly matched the unpredictable temperant of the star of Honesty.
The experience in San Shan City was very important for Jiang Wang, greatly impacting his understanding of the world.
Therefore, he naturally had more vigilance towards the Forest Sea Source Realm under the illumination of the Yuheng Star.
And now, on the tree altar, the previously kind and benevolent priestess showed not a hint of a smile today, appearing extrely solemn.
Qinghua stood with hands hanging at her left and rear, not glancing sideways.
When Jiang Wang arrived with Qing Qishu, Wu Quji and Su Qi also ca from two other directions.
Today, Su Qi evidently had taken great care with his appearance, dressed cleanly and neatly, with his hair ticulously pinned up in a Daoist bun.
This showed that under the right conditions, he was a person who valued living standards.
However, Wu Quji was bruised and battered, covered in dust and dirt, almost as if Qing Bazi had directly dragged him here.
Qing Bazi arrived at the tree altar with a dark face, setting down the person, and complained to Qing Qishu, “This kid ran around all night long.
For his safety, I’ve been guarding his room the entire night.”
After being tutored by “Mr.
Zhang” for half of the night, Qing Qishu now indeed felt a sense of superiority at the intellectual level.
Whether the outsiders run away or not is not important, and neither is sothing like a Dragon God envoy; capturing Qinghua’s heart is the crucial point.
And now, he, Qing Qishu, was brimming with confidence!
Hearing this, he only gave Qing Bazi a disdainful glance, deeming him not worth a response.
Which left Qing Bazi utterly baffled.
The tree altar was quite a distance from the habitation area of the Holy Tribe; at this mont, apart from these few Holy Tribe warriors, no one else appeared at the altar.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, the priestess did not give any instructions but imdiately clasped her ten fingers and closed her eyes in prayer.
Ultimately being one who had also suffered punches from Qing Bazi, Su Qi felt a sense of empathy and couldn’t help asking, “Brother Wu, they said that after verifying the Dragon God envoy today they would let you go.
Why did you run off last night?
Why endure a beating unnecessarily?”
Wu Quji indignantly responded, “That old lady tricked yesterday, so I wanted to trick them back.”
But did you manage to trick them?
Su Qi probably wanted to roll his eyes, but forcibly held back his eyelids.
Jiang Wang, on the other hand, quite liked this straightforward personality: “Brother Wu is truly a man of temperant.”
“Hey, let’s not talk about that,” Wu Quji waved off the subject and continued, “As foreigners in this realm, we’re fellow countryn.
Just call Qu Ji.”
As he spoke, he wiped away the blood trickling from his nose, just in ti to see Jiang Wang’s amused expression.
Being a blunt person, he asked directly, “Brother Zhang, do you find it amusing to see get beaten up?”
“Not at all,” Jiang Wang hastened to clarify.
“Then is it my na that seems funny to you?”
“No, it’s not that; it’s just that I also know soone nad Qu Hei, and I found it strangely familiar.”
Wu Quji accepted this explanation: “Well, that’s quite the coincidence.
I’d like to et them if I get the chance.”
Jiang Wang’s expression turned odd: “Sure, if there’s an opportunity.”
The Gold Needle Sect is a dical sect within Qi Country that is quite famous, although of course, it cannot compare in strength to top-tier sects like East King Valley or Renxin Pavilion.
The environnt in Qi Country also wouldn’t allow for such high-level sects to erge.
In fact, tracing back the history of the Gold Needle Sect, the sect itself was founded by disciples discarded by East King Valley.
The founding master of Gold Needle Sect was inspired by the East King’s twelve needles and found his own path.
The Golden Needle Sect’s art of passing through adversity with the golden needle was also a unique practice in the realm of cultivation.
The cultivators who erged from the Golden Needle Sect all possessed the temperant of dical practitioners.
Among them, people as forthright and direct as Wu Quji were rare.
Another nad Su Qi, in fact, garnered Jiang Wang’s attention even more.
This person was deeply hidden, and his thods were unknown.
But what Jiang Wang could ascertain was that he had observed all the people in the Seven Stars Valley at that ti, and he was certainly not the only one to have done so.
He was standing beside Li Fengyao at the ti.
It could be said that a character like Wu Quji might lack this attention to detail, but soone like Su Qi who preferred to hide and hoard information could not have escaped notice.
A few people chatted idly here.
The priest who had been silently praying suddenly chanted out loud.
The syllables were obscure and archaic, but when connected together, they brought forth a mysterious charm.
As the chanting began, Jiang Wang and the others almost subconsciously fell silent.
Each sound was incomprehensible, but a sense of grandeur, solemnity, and mystery arose at the tree altar.
Body and spirit were both tidied.
Whether it was the holy Qinghua, the violent Eight Branches, the slow and erratic Seven Trees, or the inherently still Nine Leaves.
Every mber of the “Holy Tribe” present turned toward the tree altar, knelt three tis, and kowtowed nine tis, their sincere prayers rging with the priest’s chant.
In this sacred atmosphere, a ray of light shone from beneath the wood grain of the tree altar, extending out into beams of light.
The light spread, but it had endpoints in the sky, varying in length.
Light coalesced into a strange pattern that projected onto the firmant.
It was only then that Jiang Wang saw, the wood grain patterns on the altar, when reflected and magnified, faintly ford the shape of a throne!
It stood void-like, suspended above the tree altar, with light flowing around it.
After its appearance, the light from the altar then receded.
anwhile, the star in the sky, the star representing Jade Balance, moved slowly but unmistakably!
What surprised Jiang Wang was that when the Yuheng Star moved, the light and darkness of the Divine Shade Land’s sky did not change at all.
He had always thought the Yuheng Star illuminated this world.
But from this movent, it was clear that while Yuheng Star was the only star visible in the sky of this world, the light and darkness of this world did not change with Yuheng Star!
Could it be that the Yuheng Star hanging in the Divine Shade Land’s sky was different from the one in the Forest sea source realm outside?
After entering the Divine Shade Land, Jiang Wang had observed carefully that the Yuheng Star’s position here was exactly the sa as in the Forest sea source realm outside.
What exactly did this signify?
Jiang Wang vaguely felt that he had touched upon an incredible secret.
But the anomaly of Yuheng Star was not influenced by his will.
The celestial light remained unchanged, yet Yuheng’s position shifted.
The tiny point of light in the firmant moved gradually, appearing very slowly.
But even at such a great distance, being able to see its movent indicated that its actual speed had to be terrifying!
At the sa ti, the throne above the tree altar began to rise and expand.
The “throne” constructed by the light of the altar grew larger, but as it rose higher, it appeared smaller from the perspective below.
The speed of ascent outpaced the expansion, creating this paradoxical visual experience.
Finally.
In the holy and solemn prayers.
Jiang Wang strained his eyesight and could just barely make out.
In the distant firmant, that Yuheng Star seed to rest upon that throne.
As if…
A deity had taken its seat!
