Chapter 527: Chapter 321: The Dagger Appears
After breaking through the encirclement, Xu Yang fell once again into a formation trap.
It was the Five Elements Immortal Sect!
There was more than one wise person in the world. What the Big Dipper Immortal Sect could think of, the Five Elements Immortal Sect naturally could too, and they knew the Void Spirit Lord’s foundation even better. They were certain that the Big Dipper Immortal Sect could not stop him, so they had set up an ambush outside the Tianshu Great Array, waiting silently like a hunter for the enemy to appear.
Xu Yang had broken through the Void Spirit Cave Heaven only to throw himself into the net, crashing into the Five Elements Formation they had meticulously arranged.
The sight was that of resplendent five-colored rays blossoming, the powers of the Five Elements revolving to form the array, revealing several figures who charged with an overwhelming momentum, unclear whether they were of Return to Void or Integration tier.
Xu Yang’s eyes narrowed sharply, harboring no thoughts of entanglement, directly activating the Immortal Spirit Mech Armor. A vast amount of Spirit Stones vaporized into gas, and the tremendous mana burst forth, with millions of mecha-grade magic artifacts simultaneously springing into action, ready to perform the “Void Shift” escaping technique.
Void Shift, like the Great Five Elements Divine Light, was one of the top divine powers in this world, impossible to use without the power of an Integration Great Power. With the help of the Immortal Spirit Mech Armor and skill characteristics, Xu Yang barely reached the threshold to wield such divine powers.
It was also the reason he dared to take such risks. With this divine power, space could shift, and as long as he did not encounter someone from the Mahayana Realm or fall into a Seventh Rank Immortal Formation, he could travel unhindered anywhere in the world.
Now was no exception, as the Void Shift was initiated, Xu Yang’s figure became increasingly ethereal, about to fade into the air and shift away.
Just at that moment…
“Fiend, where do you think you’re going!”
A cold shout sounded like the chill of ages that could make one feel like falling into the abyss.
Moreover, a beam of divine light shone forth, instantly stealing all brilliance, making heaven and earth lose their color.
The divine light was dazzling, but it was not the luster of the Five Elements; instead, it was the color of ice crystals. Lines of silver light shot through space, containing an extreme coldness capable of freezing even time and space.
“Crack! Crack! Crack!”
With the emergence of this divine light, the void cracked with the sound of freezing, solidifying inch by inch into ice. The Five Elements Array followed suit, the five-colored rays turning into silver-white, creating a world of ice crystals, forbidding the Five Elements and freezing time and space.
“Boom!!!”
With one final explosive sound, the void shattered, and a figure tumbled out with a rapidly solidifying spiritual body and encrusted with a layer of silver frost, freezing his mana and immobilizing his machine body.
“This…”
At the same time, the Tianshu Great Array opened, and a figure dashed out. Seeing this scene, he gasped in shock and uttered, “The Great Five Elements Ice Soul Divine Light?”
It was none other than Beidou Holy Son Zhou Tianshu.
A Saint Heir of the Immortal Sect, an Integration Great Power, and yet to lose his composure so greatly, it showed how astonishing the origin of this divine light was.
As he gasped in shock, in the Five Elements Array now turned into a silver crystal world, a figure suddenly materialized. Without saying a second word, he reached out a huge hand towards Xu Yang, whose body was covered in silver frost and machine body frozen.
Just at that moment…
“Boom!!!”
A loud noise echoed as the frost shattered, Xu Yang broke free from the ice, quickly retreated backward, shrinking the ground into inches, his form shifting unpredictably, just barely dodging that grasping hand.
“Huh!?”
Seeing this, the man expressed surprise, his eyes shifted, and he spoke in a deep voice, “You’re not that wretch!”
Xu Yang did not respond, merely watching the situation with a cold gaze.
Behind him, Zhou Tianshu’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, looking at him and that man with astonishment and uncertainty.
That man, dressed in a white robe, looking middle-aged with a stern face and a somber expression exuded an authoritative pressure from inside out, ranking above even the Integration Great Powers like the Mysterious Spirit Lord Zhong Yin Zhi and other Immortal Sect Saint Lords.
It was…
“Dustless!”
Zhou Tianshu’s gaze grew intense as he recognized the man’s identity.
It was the previous generation’s Saint Lord of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, a top figure who had ascended to the Mahayana Realm—Dustless!
“This man is the master of both Mysterious Spirit Lord and Void Spirit Lord. When Void Spirit Lord defected from the sect, he already possessed the cultivation of an advanced Integration. This man had also just ascended to the Mahayana Realm and was preparing to hand over the position of the Five Elements Saint Lord to Void Spirit Lord. However, he didn’t anticipate that Void Spirit Lord would become a renegade for that Five Elements Immortal Root, turning traitor and leaving the sect…”
“A teacher’s failure is his student’s conduct; the incident of Void Spirit Lord’s escape shocked the entire Five Elements Immortal Sect, enraging Dustless, who, together with another Mahayana, pursued him to the ends of the earth, eventually cornering Void Spirit Lord into a desperate situation.”
“But unexpectedly, Void Spirit Lord still managed to escape severely wounded. It seems that the rumors were true, that Void Spirit Lord had a Heavenly-grade Void Spirit Root in addition to the Five Elements Spiritual Body, making Dustless feel self-blame after returning to the sect. He then devoted himself to the arduous practice of the ‘Great Five Elements Ice Soul Divine Light,’ a divine power capable of binding the void.”
“But during the previous battle in the Ten Thousand Star Sea, this man had already fought once, facing none other than the old Saint Lord of my Big Dipper Immortal Sect. Now, instead of recuperating within the sect, could it be that he wants to risk damaging his foundation to seize back Void Spirit Lord and that Five Elements Immortal Root?”
“But this person doesn’t seem to be Void Spirit Lord…”
Zhou Tianshu’s eyes flickered, his mind swiftly calculating, quickly untangling the whole sequence of events and their connections.
Looking again at Dustless, this former Saint Lord of the Five Elements Immortal Sect, a pinnacle being of the Mahayana Realm, he stared down at Xu Yang with iciness: “No matter who you are, today you shall be beheaded!”
With that, he struck again. His five fingers each manifested a strand of silver light that transformed into a resplendent beam, aiming at the spaces around Xu Yang.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
The Great Five Elements Ice Soul Divine Light!
This was an ultimate divine power from the Five Elements Immortal Scripture, which transformed the Five Elements through mutual enhancement and life interactions into the water element, all pushed to the limit, turning water into ice, and ice into soul, resulting in this divine light of extreme cold capable of freezing time and space.
As the master of Void Spirit Lord, humiliated by his disciple’s defection, Dustless spent ten thousand years cultivating this divine power. Now, with his mastery nearly complete and utilizing Immortal Spirit Mana, he possessed the power to freeze time and space—a killer blow aimed at Void Spirit Lord.
