In an instant, a dazzling light erupted, like a blazing sun exploding on the black cat. The powerful impact swept outwards, raising clouds of dust. Trees were uprooted, sand and stones flew everywhere, and chaos reigned.
In the blinding light, the black cat's painful howls echoed through the sky, filled with anger and resentment.
Jiang Wanwan rushed to the scene with Lin Weiguo. They saw that the black cat's body was already broken and mangled, a terrible sight, with its fur charred and its flesh mangled.
The black mist was preparing to escape during the chaos.
Lin Weiguo waved his hand, and a beam of light shot out instantly, binding the black mist with an invisible force, rendering it unable to move.
Seeing that the black mist couldn't cause any big trouble, Jiang Wanwan went to check on Huang Sicong, who was lying unconscious on the ground. She was relieved to find that he only had some minor injuries and was not seriously hurt.
After feeding him a healing pill, she walked over to Lin Weiguo and carefully examined the black mist.
It was exactly the same black mist I encountered last time when I was trying to obtain the source of gold; even the primordial spirit was the same.
Jiang Wanwan stroked her chin and said to the dark figure, "You must be Jun Ye from the Nine Heavens Continent! I heard you're like a stray dog now, homeless!"
The black mist trembled violently, as if trying to break free of its confinement, but it was powerless to do so.
Jiang Wanwan sneered and continued, "You have committed numerous evils. You must be a demon that everyone in the Nine Heavens wants to kill!"
At this moment, the atmosphere was heavy and oppressive, with only Jiang Wanwan's voice echoing in the air.
"Forget it, you can't go back anyway! What's the point of telling you all this? Brother Lin, just kill him!"
Lin Weiguo formed a hand seal, and instantly, the black mist seemed to be tightly gripped by an invisible giant hand, constantly twisting and deforming.
The black mist emitted a desperate and shrill scream, its sharp and piercing sound seemingly about to puncture one's eardrums.
"Bang!"
With a muffled thud, the black mist completely shattered under Lin Weiguo's powerful force and vanished without a trace.
As the black mist was crushed, a shrill scream rang out: "You wait, I, Jun Ye, will fight you to the death!"
Jiang Wanwan rolled her eyes dismissively, secretly vowing that one day she would take up her sword and fight her way to the Ninth Heaven, tearing Jun Ye to pieces.
When Ji-soo arrived, she saw that the scene was filled with the smell of gunpowder and blood. She scrambled to Huang Sicong's side and saw that his face was covered in blood and his eyes were closed.
Ji-soo was extremely anxious. With trembling hands, she reached for his breath and felt his pulse, only to find that he was alright!
"Don't worry! This kid is very lucky and will be fine. He should wake up soon!" Jiang Wanwan comforted him from the side.
Ji-soo nodded quickly, finally relieved. She secretly vowed to train hard, instead of being unable to do anything like she was today.
At this moment, the sky began to lighten, and the faint morning light shone on them.
The Nine Heavens Continent, Northern Plains.
Jun Ye's body suddenly trembled, and with a "poof," he spat out a mouthful of blood, which splashed several feet away.
The destruction of his clone was like a fatal blow, causing his already fragile and just-stabilized injuries to collapse instantly, resulting in a violent backlash.
His eyes were bloodshot, his expression fierce, and his狰狞 (zhengning, meaning ferocious or hideous) face seemed capable of frightening away evil spirits. "Xiaoyao Sect! Jiang Wanwan! Lin Weiguo! You just wait!"
At this moment, Jun Ye's aura was chaotic, and the spiritual energy in his body was surging uncontrollably through his meridians, causing him to feel excruciating pain as if he had been pierced by a thousand arrows in every acupoint.
He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug deep into his palms, but he was completely unaware of it. All he felt was burning anger and deep hatred towards Jiang Wanwan, Lin Weiguo, and the others.
At the same time, the Star God Sect on Guxi Avenue received an anonymous letter.
The Star God Sect is a super sect in the Nine Heavens Continent. They are known for their exploration of the mysteries of the stars and their powerful star magic.
They believe that the power of stars is the strongest energy in the universe because their ancestor, the "Star Emperor," once broke through and ascended to heaven while traveling through the vast sea of stars!
The council hall of the Star God Sect is solemn and majestic. The interior is spacious with a high dome and several thick stone pillars that support the entire building.
The walls are inlaid with gemstones that emit a faint starlight, giving the hall a soft glow even in the dim light. The floor is paved with smooth, mirror-like bluestone, with subtle, mysterious patterns.
The tables and chairs in the hall are all made of precious starwood, with grain patterns resembling a dazzling galaxy. On the wall directly in front hangs a huge star map, with countless stars twinkling in it, as if containing endless cosmic mysteries.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the hall was heavy, and the elders were arguing endlessly about an anonymous letter.
The anonymous letter read: "Do you want to know the power of the stars and the sea? Do you know the world beyond the Nine Heavens Continent, a place once visited by the Star Emperor—'Ancient Blue Star'?"
The elders engaged in a heated discussion, each offering their own perspective, in this solemn and respectful setting.
An elderly elder with white hair stared wide-eyed in disbelief, his voice trembling as he said, "How could this news come so suddenly? Could it be that someone is deliberately playing a trick on my Starry Sky Divine Sect?"
Another burly elder suddenly stood up, clenched his fists, and said excitedly, "Whether it's true or not, this may be a major opportunity for us to explore the mysteries of the stars!"
Another elder frowned, lost in thought, and muttered to himself, "Ancient Blue Star? Never heard of it before. This matter needs to be considered carefully."
"Father! The exact location to Ancient Blue Star is written on it, why don't we give it a try?"
A young man in blue suddenly spoke up, his urgent tone breaking the brief silence in the council hall.
The young man had striking features, fair skin, and a tall, upright posture, though still bearing a hint of youthful inexperience. He stared intently ahead, his eyes filled with anticipation and a burning desire to try.
"Feiyu, don't be silly!"
Elder Qin rebuked him. Although he rebuked him, there was no blame on his face. Instead, he stood up, bowed to the sect leader Zhou Tianxiang at the head of the table, and said, "My son was unruly. Please do not take it to heart, sect leader."
The council chamber was so quiet that you could almost hear everyone breathing.
The sunlight streaming in through the window illuminated Elder Qin's apologetic face and clearly outlined his slightly hunched figure.
Sect Leader Zhou Tianxiang sat upright at the head of the table, his expression unchanged. He simply waved his hand slightly to indicate that it was alright.
After Qin Feiyu suggested giving it a try, the elders' discussion became less enthusiastic, and in the end, they didn't reach any conclusion.
After all, it was just an anonymous letter. Who could be sure it wasn't a trap? Besides, the sect leader's lifespan was nearing its end, and internal factional strife was rampant. Who would give up their current position to travel to the ends of the earth to seek an uncertain opportunity?
