Chapter 235: The Power Of The Holy Lord
The realm of Qi Refining focuses on cultivating the body through the circulation of qi and accumulating spiritual energy. Those who reach this realm transcend the mundane and cultivate themselves to attain truth.
In the realm of Foundation Building, one forges a spiritual foundation and harnesses the power of heaven and earth, responding to the forces of the Five Elements and Yin and Yang.
In the realm of Spirit Gathering, the meridians of qi transform into spiritual meridians, connecting with the spirits of heaven and earth, manifesting the laws of cultivation.
Upon reaching the realm of Gold Core, the spiritual foundation transforms into a Gold Core, bestowing the power of law manifestation. Cultivators in this realm possess formidable strength, capable of commanding wind and rain, and moving mountains and seas with ease.
Beyond the realm of Gold Core is the realm of Nascent Soul. The Gold Core, imbued with spirituality, takes form outside the physical body, allowing cultivators to traverse the vast void and manifest their presence. In an instant, the Three Mountains and Five Peaks converge, displaying the aura of immortals.
And then there is Spiritual Ascension, where the Nascent Soul becomes true, resembling a second life for cultivators. It touches upon the principles of heaven and earth, although not yet reaching the level of merging one's heart with the heart of heaven. At this stage, cultivators enter the initial realm of resonance between heaven and man, possessing a mighty power that ordinary people cannot bear.
At this moment, Chen Danzi was truly angered, triggering a resonance with heaven and earth. The imposing aura was astonishing, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged like a mighty river, overwhelming Chu Shen and the others.
Qiongshan Lao Mu, who stood in front of Chu Shen and the others, was not to be underestimated. With a cold snort, her white hair moved without wind, and an invisible power formed a solid barrier, blocking Chen Danzi's imposing aura.
"Qiongshan old hag, are you really going to turn against me?" Chen Danzi's face grew even darker.
Qiongshan Lao Mu angrily shouted, "Chen Danzi, how dare you act recklessly? Where are the law enforcement disciples? Is this how you uphold the laws of the Heavenly Palace?"
The law enforcement disciples felt their scalps tingling. Although their cultivation was not weak, it was incomparable to the two elders in the realm of Spiritual Ascension. They had no part in the battle between the two elders.
Unfortunately, the person in charge of the law enforcement team was not present in the Heavenly Palace, and the deputy palace manager who could mobilize them, Yan Shu, was also absent. They didn't even have a capable leader to rely on.
This was truly frustrating.
Someone nearby couldn't bear to watch.
An elder from Lingjian Peak stepped forward. The ordeal of Gong Liusu and her master had long made these hot-blooded men and women indignant. Now that Qiongshan Laomu was helping their disciples, if no one stood up for them, they would lose face in the future.
"Chen Danzi, do you think there is no one in Lingjian Peak?"
However, Chen Danzi of Lingdan Peak was not alone. Seeing Lingjian Peak and Lingjue Peak intervening, people from Lingqi Peak and Lingfu Peak, who had closer relations with Lingdan Peak, also stepped forward.
The atmosphere on the scene became even more tense. The disciples of those sects retreated in panic, while the experts from various peaks with some prestige silently took sides.
They had to take a stand. At this moment, the situation had shifted from Gong Liusu's speech issue to a burst of conflicts between the peaks.
Moreover, more and more people were coming out of the ruins, but most of them were grassroots disciples, and there were very few disciples from prestigious families and factions. This situation inevitably raised suspicions—did the orthodox faction play dirty tricks?
Tianjiao faction?
Those were ignorant young people. When they came out to mix, they had to rely on background and power. Those Tianjiao might become a threat in the future, but before they grew up, how many dissatisfactions could they pose to these old guys who truly held power?
Chu Shen's expression was solemn. Not only did he use numerous talismans to protect himself, Gong Liusu, and Gong Liusu's master, but he also put on various equipment.
Armor, helmet, shield, and other protective gear were essential. The wind and fire wheel was already under his feet, ready to run away at any time. Even the merit treasure bead was prepared. If something happened, he would rather consume merit to curse and kill Chen Danzi.
He looked completely armed.
Just then, Chen Danzi finally let out a roar and launched an attack.
A group of newcomers emerged, carrying several corpses, including his only heir.
Already an elderly man with a son, now he was sending off the younger generation. He had gone mad, unable to reflect on the fact that it was his own decision to let his son enter the ruins for exploration. Instead, he transferred this pain onto others.
Amidst the roaring thunder, a massive palm formed by gathered spiritual energy pressed down towards Chu Shen and the others. The rolling dark clouds were affected by the immense power of the Spiritual Ascension realm, forming a funnel-shaped cloud.
This caught the attention of several peak masters in the clouds who were focused on suppressing the illusion of the Thunder Dragon. The peak master of the Lingdan Peak was shocked to see his own elders fighting with the Qiongshan Peak's Qiongshan Old Mother.
"Chen Danzi, what are you doing? Stop!" he shouted.
But Chen Danzi, in his anger, couldn't hear the advice.
...Flowers are requested...
His most proficient palm technique was unstoppable as it descended.
Qiongshan Old Mother, however, remained calm. With a cold snort, she lightly tapped her wooden staff on the ground, causing countless fibrous materials to gather above her, resembling blooming wooden lotus flowers. They managed to block the descending giant palm.
Upon contact, a tremendous explosion of energy occurred. The giant palm distorted in the dim glow, and the wooden lotus flowers were shattered.
The aftermath swept across all directions, with weaker individuals being swept up into the air by the hurricane.
Chu Shen and the others didn't encounter major issues. With Qiongshan Old Mother defending in front and the protection of giant shields and other magical tools behind them, they were unharmed. They were only pushed back by the strong wind, almost turning into rolling gourds.
Spiritual Ascension cultivators were truly terrifying!
Chu Shen tightly held the "Fake Pill" three-minute superman experience card, ready to use it at any time.
He witnessed for the first time what it was like to face an opponent he couldn't surpass.
Just as Chen Danzi and Qiongshan Laomu were about to engage in a formal battle, several peak masters in the sky shouted to stop them from fighting. At the same time, a majestic power descended from the sky along with a sword, piercing between the two.
The ordinary long sword directly severed the momentum of their battle and created a huge barrier of power, separating them.
A indifferent voice immediately came from the sky.
"Chen Danzi provoked internal conflict in the Heavenly Palace and is demoted from the position of Elder of the Lingdan Peak.
Qiongshan Laomu is rewarded with a jug of Langhuan Qiongjiang for protecting her disciple.
Yan Shu, acting in place of the palace affairs, is temporarily punished and will immediately mediate the disputes among the peaks.
Also, no one is allowed to explore the ruins without authorization. End this exploration of the ruins and return to your respective peaks. Disciples of each peak should remember to cultivate their hearts along with their cultivation."
With the appearance of this voice, everyone, including Chen Danzi, stopped their actions and showed expressions of awe on their faces.
Qiongshan Laomu and others loudly exclaimed, "We obey the orders of the Holy Lord!"
Even Chen Danzi had a grim face at this time and reluctantly accepted this command.
After all, it was the Holy Lord who made the move.
It's unclear whether someone reported or if the changes here alarmed the Holy Lord who was in seclusion.
