Chapter 69: Change in the Silver Moon



Chapter 69: Change in the Silver Moon

The giant golden ape thumped its chest with its fists, and a violent aura erupted out of its body, causing the yellow light barrier to sway and quiver.

Inside the hall on the Heaven Stunning Peak, Daoist Closed Mountain and the other cultivators of the Origin Realm Temple were all greatly alarmed by the sight of the terrifying giant ape outside the light barrier.

Sweat was beginning to bead up on Daoist Closed Mountain's forehead, and he sped up in his chanting as he pointed his fingers at the pillars around him in quick succession.

All of the pillars began to glow with yellow radiance, and the yellow light barrier encompassing the Heaven Stunning Peak became even thicker and denser.

The giant golden ape threw its head back and let loose a long roar, then swung a furry violently at the light barrier up ahead.

Dazzling golden light erupted from its massive fist as it sped through the air, sweeping up gusts of fierce golden wind before crashing into the yellow light barrier with ferocious might.

An earth-shattering boom rang out as dazzling golden and yellow light erupted forth in a blinding explosion of radiance.

The surface of the light barrier trembled violently, and the section that was struck caved in significantly amid a string of loud cracks. A series of fissures appeared on the light barrier around the giant golden fist before quickly spreading in all directions.

Inside the hall on the Heaven Stunning Peak, all of the pillars around the three-level platform trembled violently, and even the platform itself was displaying some signs of cracking as it flashed erratically.

The Body Integration cultivators situated around the platform all felt their dantians quiver violently alongside the platform, and they each threw up a mouthful of blood as astonished looks appeared on their faces.

The Divine Dense Earth Array encompassing the Heaven Stunning Peak was an array that had taken several array masters of the sect an entire century to construct under the guidance of Patriarch Clear Bright countless years ago, yet it had almost been destroyed by just a single punch!

A hint of panic flashed through Daoist Closed Mountain's eyes as he yelled, "Stabilize the array!"

He then gritted his teeth before opening his mouth to release a mouthful of blood essence, which transformed into a cloud of blood mist that fused into the nearby pillars. At the same time, he made a rapid series of hand seals as he injected his magic power into the platform in a frenzy.

The Body Integration cultivators around the platform hurriedly did the same upon seeing this.

Under their combined efforts, all of the pillars in the array lit up in unison, and the cracks that had been smashed into the yellow light barrier by the giant golden ape's fist quickly began to seal.

The giant golden ape harrumphed coldly upon seeing this, and its other arm also began to glow with radiant golden light before it unleashed another devastating strike.

The massive golden fist struck the exact same spot as before, and a series of golden shockwaves erupted from the fist, sweeping up gusts of fierce wind that blew through the air in all directions.

The entire array trembled and churned violently, and pillars of yellow qi rose up in a chaotic fashion in all directions.

As a result of the second strike, the indentation on the light barrier deepened by twofold, and the cracks began to spread over its surface again, with these ones even wider and deeper than the cracks from before.

Finally, the entire array completely shattered with a dull thump.

The hall on the Heaven Stunning Peak swayed violently while a massive crack appeared on the three-level platform, splitting it into two.

Seven or eight massive rifts also appeared on the ground in the hall, and all of the Body Integration cultivators shuddered uncontrollably as they almost fell off the platform.

At the same time, blood was gushing out of their mouths, and their auras were quickly waning.

Daoist Closed Mountain's complexion also paled significantly as he instantly rose to his feet.

However, before he had a chance to do anything, a resounding boom rang out, and countless cracks appeared on the roof of the hall before it collapsed forcefully, even though it was also bolstered by an array.

A golden fist projection the size of a house then came crashing down directly upon Daoist Closed Mountain.

A faint buzzing sound rang out as Daoist Closed Mountain flipped a hand over to produce a silver horsetail whisk, which he swept through the air to release countless silver threads.

He then made a seal with his other hand, and all of the silver threads instantly converged at his behest to form a silver Qilin projection, which clashed with the golden fist projection.

An earth-shattering boom rang out as golden and silver light intertwined, sweeping up a ferocious hurricane that erupted all the way up into the heavens before sweeping fiercely in all directions.

The entire hall was completely destroyed, and all of the Body Integration cultivators were sent flying by the ferocious gusts of wind. Thankfully, all of them reacted extremely quickly, frantically summoning all types of defensive treasures to protect themselves, so they remained relatively unharmed.

A portly figure shot back in retreat out of the fierce wind in an unsteady manner, and it was none other than Daoist Closed Mountain. He was holding a ruined horsetail whisk in one hand, and there was a look of horror and panic in his eyes as he hurriedly yelled, "Please wait, Fellow Daoist Han!"

Before he had a chance to say anything further, the giant golden ape appeared before him in a wraith-like manner amid a flash of golden light, then swung a massive golden palm down toward him.

The golden hand didn't appear to be moving very quickly, but in reality, it was rapidly descending and releasing a burst of terrifying power that threatened to flatten the very space itself.

Daoist Closed Mountain hurriedly opened his mouth in a frantic manner to release a ball of white light, which contained an antiquated black inkstone.

There was a faint layer of light surging over the inkstone's surface, and it was clearly a treasure of quite a high caliber.

The inkstone revolved in mid-air as it rapidly expanded, and countless runes emerged on its surface. At the same time, it released a thick pillar of black light that managed to keep the giant golden palm at bay.

Daoist Closed Mountain immediately seized this opportunity to rush back in retreat while simultaneously flipping a hand over to produce a white jade pendant amid a flash of white light.

The giant golden ape let loose a low roar as it spread the fingers of the hand that was being kept at bay by the pillar of black light, and a series of golden spiritual patterns appeared on its palm.

The power that was being released by the hand was instantly enhanced by almost threefold, and it crushed the pillar of black light with ease before grabbing ahold of the black inkstone and tightening its grip.

The inkstone was completely pulverized with a dull thump, immediately following which the giant golden ape vanished on the spot before appearing not far behind Daoist Closed Mountain.

A furry golden hand reached out like lightning, and golden spiritual patterns instantly lit up on its surface as a burst of golden light swept forward with ferocious might.

Daoist Closed Mountain immediately turned around before sweeping an arm through the air, tossing the white jade pendant upward.

Red, yellow, and blue light surged over the jade pendant's surface, following which a burst of three-colored spirit flames erupted forth. The three-colored flames transformed into a three-colored phoenix that was over 100 feet in size in the blink of an eye, then flew directly toward the giant ape's oncoming fist.

Scintillating three-colored light radiated from the phoenix's body, illuminating the entire sky, causing everything around it to pale into insignificance in comparison.

An earth-shattering boom rang out in mid-air, instantly resounding throughout the entire Origin Realm Temple. All of the disciples in the temple instantly flew out of the buildings that they were in with alarmed expressions, then directed their gaze toward the Heaven Stunning Peak in the distance.

There, the entire sky had been split into two, with golden light dominating one side, while the other side was filled with scorching red, yellow, and blue flames. The two sides were locked in a fierce tug of war, and bursts of thunderous rumbling were ringing out incessantly.

The Heaven Stunning Peak and the entire area in a radius of hundreds of kilometers around it shuddered violently as gusts of destructive wind swept through the surrounding area.

All of the trees near the Heaven Stunning Peak were completely uprooted, and some of the giant rocks were also swept away by the ferocious wind, while everything else was razed to the ground.

The clash between the two bursts of terrifying power only raged on for a few seconds before the golden light quickly overwhelmed the three-colored flames, and the latter was completely crushed.

The three-colored phoenix let loose an anguished cry, and its body was also destroyed by the golden light.

Daoist Closed Mountain was sent flying back by the ferocious shockwaves, and the jade pendant in his hand was shattered with a dull thump.

He flew all the way back for several kilometers before crashing heavily into a mountain, then plummeted down onto the ground with countless rocks raining down all around him.

The giant golden ape also descended from the heavens, landing not far in front of Daoist Closed Mountain. The ground trembled violently, and rock fragments flew in all directions as a pair of huge craters were stomped into the ground by the ape's enormous feet.

The golden ape then lowered its head to look down at Daoist Closed Mountain with a cold look in its golden eyes.

Daoist Closed Mountain was absolutely horrified, but seeing as Han Li didn't immediately land the killing blow, a glimmer of hope welled up in his heart as he hurriedly said, "Fellow Daoist Han... No, Senior Han, please let me explain! It's not what you think!"

At this point, his heart was filled with nothing but remorse. If he had known that this was going to happen, he would've fled the Origin Realm Temple right away after leaving the domain. Perhaps he would've at least had a slim chance at survival then.

Right at this moment, a string of resounding booms suddenly rang out from the distance, and it was coming from the Star Gathering Platform's direction.

The giant golden ape raised an eyebrow as it turned toward the Star Gathering Platform, and Daoist Closed Mountain also hurriedly cast his gaze toward the same direction.

The eight mountains near the Star Gathering Platform were swaying in unison, and the peaks of the eight mountains exploded, while the eight pillars of light rising up from the mountains also vanished in a flash.

The massive light barrier overlooking the Star Gathering Platform then abruptly brightened before disintegrating.

However, the giant silver moon hanging over the Star Gathering Platform didn't fade. Not only that, but it had become even brighter than the sun and was trembling incessantly.

Bursts of invisible shockwaves erupted forth in all directions, and the surrounding space in a radius of several hundred kilometers was stirred up once again as trees were felled and mountains collapsed.

Immediately thereafter, all of the light radiating from the surface of the silver moon converged toward the center to form an enormous vortex. At the same time, lights of different colors appeared in the surrounding area, intertwining with one another as violent tremors ran through the nearby space.

All of the Origin Realm Temple disciples were staring at the scene unfolding in the sky in a slack-jawed silence.

The giant golden ape was watching the massive vortex in the sky with blue light flashing in its eyes, and it suddenly reached with one hand to make a grabbing motion, releasing a burst of immense suction force.

"Spare me!" Daoist Closed Mountain yelled as he tried to struggle frantically, but he was completely powerless to resist as the giant golden ape drew him into its grasp with ease.

The giant ape then opened its mouth to release the silver Essence Fire Raven, which transformed into a fiery silver rope in a flash before quickly winding itself around Daoist Closed Mountain's body several times.

With a casual swipe of the golden ape's hand, Daoist Closed Mountain was tossed away, following which the giant ape directed its gaze back to the spatial vortex in the sky with a grim look on its face.

Daoist Closed Mountain crashed heavily down onto the ground, and stars were dancing in front of his eyes.

His heart shuddered as he felt the terrifying power imbued within the fiery silver rope around him, and all he could do was lay obediently on the ground, not daring to move even a single inch for fear of irking Han Li.
