Chapter 222: The Fairy Spirit is Mine!
"Mother is watching to see who has perished."
The woman in the purple skirt spoke slowly, her voice ethereal as it echoed within the hall, like the sound of a mountain spring bubbling to life.
The boy on her shoulder asked curiously, "What's so interesting about that? People die all the time, don't they? As long as half of the lamps on the wall don't go out, the spiritual fortune of the Seven Star Spirit Realm won't be cut off."
The purple-skirted woman replied, "Recently, three wandering immortals have died, all of them from the same place. This place is close to the Star Sea Group. I don't know if it's their scheme or if someone else is causing trouble in secret."
The boy followed her gaze to the oil lamps on the wall and fell into thought.
At that moment, footsteps approached from the darkness behind them, accompanied by a hoarse voice:
"Cave Master, there are spiritual fluctuations in the Spirit Mirror."
At these words, the purple-skirted woman turned and walked into the darkness.
The boy on her shoulder twisted his head to look, his clear eyes fixated on the oil lamps on the wall.
...
Beneath the cover of night, within a dilapidated city.
The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord meditated in front of a bonfire, with Chu Jingfeng by his side.
Chu Jingfeng occasionally glanced into the distance, where the moonlit night was enveloped in thick fog, and terrifying ghostly silhouettes loomed.
"Do you sense it?" The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord suddenly asked.
Chu Jingfeng's thoughts snapped back, and he cautiously asked, "Master, what should I sense?"
"It's drawing near," the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord whispered.
"Who is it?"
"It's the fairy spirit of the Divine Wonder City."
Chu Jingfeng's eyes widened, and his breathing quickened.
After spending so much time in Divine Wonder City, he had learned about the fairy spirit from the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord.
As long as the fairy spirit acknowledged a master, they could wield the formidable power of Divine Wonder City!
The acknowledgment of the fairy spirit as a master was not solely dependent on cultivation but also on a connection of fate, which was why countless beings below the immortal realm had ventured here.
Chu Jingfeng dared not entertain the hope of obtaining Divine Wonder City for himself, but he fervently wished for his master to attain it.
The stronger his master became, the more he would benefit, and he genuinely appreciated the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord for giving him a chance at a new life.
The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord fell silent and continued to absorb the energy around him.
Chu Jingfeng, on the other hand, began to fantasize about what would happen next.
Ever since he had entered the city with his master, he had witnessed countless battles. No matter how powerful the demons and monsters were, they had all fallen before his master.
He believed that as long as the fairy spirit appeared, his master would surely be able to control it and, thus, dominate Divine Wonder City!
The moon set, and the sun rose.
In the east, beyond the city gates, the sun climbed high in the sky.
Chu Jingfeng was in the midst of cultivating when he suddenly felt the ground tremble. He opened his eyes and saw the surrounding buildings shaking.
The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord, who had been sitting across from him, slowly stood up. Before Chu Jingfeng could ask a question, his master raised his hand, and the two of them soared into the sky.
Chu Jingfeng looked down, his eyes widening in fear as he saw endless demons and monsters surging forth like black waves, devouring the city's structures in their path. The sight overwhelmed his senses.
"This is the true power of Divine Wonder City—the divine and strange ghosts. Over countless years, innumerable divine and strange ghosts have accumulated here, forming a force capable of overthrowing the mortal realm."
The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord gazed into the distance, his expression indifferent as he spoke.
Before Chu Jingfeng could respond, his master raised his right hand and brought it down in a mighty palm strike.
Boom—
The city below instantly collapsed, countless divine and strange ghosts dissipating into ghostly mist. The entire earth seemed to be crumbling, sending clouds of dust into the sky, obscuring the heavens.
Chu Jingfeng faintly heard the playful laughter of a child, eerie and ghostly, sending shivers down his spine.
...
Divine Wonder City, East Gate.
The massive gate stood open, and from the outside, the streets within appeared deserted.
Suddenly, the space beyond the gate rippled, and three figures stepped out: Chi Bei, Chi Jiuxiao, and An Hao.
They took ten steps forward, and then An Hao turned back to look at the majestic gate of Divine Wonder City, a sense of relief washing over him.
Finally, they had made it out!
"An Hao?"
A voice called out from a distance, and An Hao focused his gaze to see a group of cultivators standing there, including Lu Baitian.
"Master!" An Hao called out, eager to approach.
However, Chi Bei stopped him.
"From now on, you must not acknowledge your connection to the Tai Xuan Gate," Chi Bei said in a low voice, his eyes fixed on the distant figures.
"Why?" An Hao frowned, confusion furrowing his brow.
"They're here!"
Chi Bei's expression turned grave, and he raised his hand to produce a magical artifact, ready for battle.
Chi Jiuxiao also brandished his Dragon-Slaying Spear, muttering, "Being in the territory of the Seven Star Spirit Realm is troublesome. These guys are certainly quick to act."
"After all, seven days have passed. With the demise of two wandering immortals, it's impossible for the Seven Star Spirit Realm not to have noticed," Chi Bei said calmly.
Chi Jiuxiao looked at him and asked, "Master, what should we do now?"
Chi Bei snorted, "If the Seven Star Spirit Realm is making a move, then our Star Sea Group will not stand idly by!"
At these words, a delighted expression spread across Chi Jiuxiao's face. He turned to look into the distance, a smile of excitement playing on his lips.
"I thought it was someone else, but it turns out to be Chi Bei of the Star Sea Group's Chi family, daring to kill our sect's disciples in the territory of the Seven Star Spirit Realm. Do you know the consequences of your actions?"
A chilling voice reverberated through the heavens and the earth, the killing intent within sending shivers down the spines of all living beings in the vicinity.
The disciples of the Tai Xuan Gate quickly rose to their feet, their eyes filled with tension as they gazed into the distance.
Terrifying auras erupted from all directions, causing the mountains and rivers to tremble.
An Hao looked up and realized that they had been surrounded.
Could these terrifying auras also belong to wandering immortals? He wondered, his heart pounding as he looked at Chi Bei, unsure if the senior could withstand this onslaught.
When would the wandering immortals of the Star Sea Group arrive?
"Oh? So this continent belongs to the Seven Star Spirit Realm. I thought you had already abandoned this land!"
A domineering voice rang out, challenging the wandering immortal from the Seven Star Spirit Realm.
Chi Bei immediately recognized the owner of the voice, and a smile appeared on his face.
The true battle between wandering immortals was about to erupt!
...
In a desolate world, thick ghostly fog shrouded the earth. Chu Jingfeng stood on a gourd, his body enveloped by a faint luminous shield.
His gaze was fixed on the figure before him.
The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord stood bare-chested, his body surrounded by fiery aura and wild, dancing hair. He resembled a formidable war god, exuding an overwhelming presence.
Hovering in front of the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord was a fiery-red phoenix with a thousand-foot wingspan. As it flapped its wings, fierce flames surged forward like rampaging dragons, engulfing the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord.
"Hmph! Since you refuse to yield, I can only suppress you!" The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord declared, his eyes icy cold as black runes writhed across his body, sending shivers down one's spine.
As his words landed, he suddenly charged towards the phoenix.
The phoenix let out a piercing cry, and with another flap of its wings, the surrounding dust waves were scattered. Countless terrifying ghostly silhouettes, each a hundred feet tall, leaped out. Adorned in battle armor and wielding ancient weapons, they resembled divine warriors from the primordial era, exuding an air of unmatched might.
In the blink of an eye, the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord was engulfed by these ghostly figures.
Boom—
A violent gust of wind erupted, dispersing the ghostly silhouettes. The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord took a step forward and unleashed a punch, causing the mountains and rivers to tremble.
This punch shattered space itself, and an ancient bell, seemingly from the river of time, burst out from the rift and collided with the phoenix.
The massive phoenix looked minuscule in front of the ancient bell, like a sparrow before a towering tree.
The phoenix let out a mournful cry as chains appeared on the surface of the bell, swiftly binding it.
No matter how it struggled, the phoenix couldn't break free from the chains' hold.
A frenzied aura filled the heavens and the earth as countless divine ghosts of varying sizes and forms surged forward from different directions. Even a thousand-foot-tall divine ghost descended from the sky.
The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord stood alone against this overwhelming force, his fists and feet moving like the wind, shaking the very foundations of the world with his unstoppable might.
Chu Jingfeng, standing on the gourd, felt his blood boil. Although he couldn't see the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord's figure clearly, he could sense his master's power as the divine ghosts were annihilated one after another.
Too strong! At that moment, Chu Jingfeng even felt that the path of the sword was not the ultimate path; the path of the physical body was the strongest!
The heavens and the earth roared, and the ground churned up clouds of dust. No matter how many divine ghosts the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord destroyed, more continued to swarm in relentlessly.
Boom-boom-boom—
At the end of the world, a colossal shadow rose, like a mountain emerging from the earth, a stunning sight to behold.
Chu Jingfeng gazed into the distance, sensing an aura that made his heart tremble.
"What is that...?" he wondered, his heart filled with apprehension.
Before he could think further, the mysterious giant stepped out from the dust that obscured the heavens and the earth. It was a figure standing a hundred feet tall, its body muscular and robust. Each muscle seemed to be crafted from rocks, exuding a power that struck fear into the hearts of all creation.
Its body was pitch-black, with unruly hair and only a loincloth to cover its lower half. In its hands, it held a massive axe.
With both hands gripping the axe, it swept forward. The force of its swing sent a powerful gust of wind that swept away everything in its path, even tossing the gourd under Chu Jingfeng's feet into the air.
The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord appeared in front of the gourd, punching out.
Dong—
A deafening boom reverberated, as the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord's fist clashed with the giant's axe, his physical strength against the weapon.
Both combatants retreated, the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord's brow furrowed as he felt a tingling sensation in his right fist.
The mysterious giant stabilized its stance after retreating several steps and readied its axe once more. This time, mysterious forces from the heavens and the earth gathered on the axe's blade, and with a mighty chop, it unleashed a strike that seemed capable of splitting the world apart!
The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord raised his hand, now with only four fingers, and extended two fingers. A golden beam burst forth, piercing through the murkiness of the heavens and sweeping away all obstacles in its path!
Boom—
The mysterious giant, towering at a hundred feet, was obliterated by the golden light, leaving behind a vacuum in the heavens and a massive canyon on the earth below, a sight that shocked Chu Jingfeng to his core.
The Nine-Fingered Divine Lord turned and immediately flew towards the phoenix.
The phoenix was still trapped by the ancient bell and couldn't move.
As the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord approached the phoenix, a figure appeared out of thin air and reached out to capture the phoenix, reducing it to the size of a palm!
"Who are you?" the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord asked in a deep voice, not daring to act rashly as he couldn't see through the stranger's strength.
Gu An, who had been using the Nine Extremes Yin-Yang Body, turned to face the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord and said, "The fairy spirit is mine."
Upon hearing this, the Nine-Fingered Divine Lord's face twisted with rage, and he roared, "Arrogant!"
