Chapter 257: Elder Lei and the Celestial Master Sword (Part 2)
Chapter 257: Elder Lei and the Celestial Master Sword (Part 2)
At first glance, nothing seemed out of the ordinary.
He raised his eyebrows slightly and took out the Mysterious Darkness Mirror.
The brighter side of the mirror flashed with light.
Although the light faded quickly, the scene reflected in the mirror had already changed.
Above Tianle Mountain, strands of spiritual light soared into the sky, piercing through the clouds, and their destination was unknown.
In the depths of Lei Jun's eyes, glowing talismans condensed, and a faint light shone from between his eyebrows.
In his vision, the scene of Tianle Mountain transformed before his eyes.
The mountain peaks seemed to turn into a formidable pass, black in color with a faint red glow seeping through.
Lei Jun recognized it as the Iron Heavy Pass, a secret technique passed down within the Ye Clan of Jinzhou for many generations.
Its defensive capabilities on all fronts were quite extraordinary, and it also served as a warning system.
Without touching it, simply approaching it could cause one to fall into a trap, as the opponent would sense their presence, putting themselves in a dangerous situation.
What drew Lei Jun's attention even more was the spiritual light soaring into the sky above the Iron Heavy Pass.
'Carefree Calamity'... Lei Jun observed and understood its nature.
It was the 'Carefree Calamity' personally arranged by Ye Moquan.
The 'Carefree Calamity' of the Ye Clan of Jinzhou was a profound technique that went beyond the chessboard and into the real world. When arranged properly and used appropriately, it could have a significant impact, hence the saying of having a "peace of mind."
Judging from the scale of the spiritual light soaring into the sky, Lei Jun could clearly determine that it was not something that an Eight Heavens cultivator of the Ye Clan could achieve.
At this moment, the 'Carefree Calamity' had already started to operate and transform.
Apparently, Xu Yuanzhen was putting considerable pressure on Ye Moquan, forcing him to make his moves.
As for the Iron Heavy Pass surrounding and protecting the heavenly light above, it seemed to be the work of an Eight Heavens grand scholar of the Ye Clan.
Lei Jun was not sure who it was for the moment, but an Eight Heavens grand scholar with a focus on scholarship would undoubtedly have keen perception.
The line of spiritual light was the key, and it was protected by the Iron Heavy Pass.
Lei Jun could bombard it from a distance with several Xuanjin Sword Pills.
However, he needed to break through the Iron Heavy Pass as soon as possible, and ideally, he would also cut off the 'Carefree Calamity's' connection to the sky.
If he was hindered by the Iron Heavy Pass, the opponent might have time and means to react.
Fortunately, Lei Jun had just received the Heavenly Master Sword.
Under Lei Jun's control, the purple magic sword now looked quite calm, unlike its previous boisterous state.
He reached out and held the magic sword, and his mind became clear once again.
The nine heavenly godly thunders, purple in color, began to gather and vibrate around Lei Jun.
Surrounded by the dancing electric snakes, Lei Jun seemed to transform into the Thunder Emperor himself, and his already tall figure appeared even more imposing at this moment.
As Lei Jun raised the Heavenly Master Sword in his hand, pointing it towards Tianle Mountain in the distance, the rolling purple thunderbolts converged and transformed into a thunder dragon, with its head protruding forward as if piercing through the clouds.
The Mysterious Darkness Mirror rotated, and the darker side now illuminated Lei Jun, working in tandem with the Yin Xing Shu, a technique for stealthily moving through the heavens. This caused the area to be filled with thunder and lightning without any sound, and there were no fluctuations in spiritual energy either.
Then...
Lei Jun did not command the Thunder Dragon to charge forward.
Under his mental control, the Thunder Dragon coiled back.
The Celestial Master Sword left his hand and hung in the air alongside the Thunder Dragon.
The Nine Heavenly Godly Thunders were already majestic, and now they surged with a vibrant purple aura.
At this moment, amidst the rolling sea of thunder, two Taiji Heavenly Primal Talismans appeared, one in the south and the other in the north, complementing each other with their radiant brilliance.
An unprecedented surge of primordial magnetic force erupted in this instant.
The Celestial Master Sword, amidst this power, trembled slightly, its tip pointing towards Tianle Mountain in the distance.
"It's been a while since I've fought such a luxurious battle..." Lei Jun mused.
With one hand, he performed intricate hand seals in front of his chest, while the other hand waved gently towards the sky.
In the next moment, the Celestial Master Sword abruptly shot forward!
Today, the Heavenly Master's Mansion finally possessed a long-range flying sword that could rival the Confucian School's divine archery and the Taoist School's external elixir.
As the Celestial Master Sword flew out, it left almost no trace in its wake.
Only the fierce wind, like a plow, carved out a terrifying gully.
The primordial magnetic force and the spiritual power of the Celestial Master Sword converged to their peak, and even with Lei Jun's cooperation with treasures like the Mysterious Darkness Mirror, they couldn't completely contain it.
At the current distance, it immediately attracted the attention of the Ye Clan's Grand Scholar who was overseeing the Carefree Calamity here.
But just as she was about to react, the Celestial Master Sword had already flown out.
It struck the Iron Heavy Pass directly.
And pierced through it! The Iron Heavy Pass, constructed from the Grand Scholar Ye Han's noble and righteous qi, instantly began to crumble and dissipate.
The Celestial Master Sword showed no signs of stopping and continued to strike the ritual vessels hidden behind the Iron Heavy Pass.
Countless purple Nine Heavenly Godly Thunders then exploded on Tianle Mountain, filling the sky with dazzling thunder and lightning.
Lei Jun no longer concealed himself and leaped onto the mountain.
The ritual vessels on the mountain peak were thrown into disarray.
A sword glowing with purple lightning was stuck in a huge illusory chessboard.
A middle-aged woman in palace attire stood there, her face pale, her body swaying back and forth as if she were drunk.
Lei Jun glanced at her and recognized her as an acquaintance.
An acquaintance he had never met.
Ye Han, the second daughter of Ye Moquan, the former patriarch of the Jinzhou Ye Clan.
Four years ago, Ye Han and her daughter, Ye Lingxi, had traveled to the Southern Wasteland, joining forces with the experts from Jin City Fortress to plot against Yuan Mobai and Lei Jun, master and disciple.
However, after Lei Daochang learned of the incident, he arranged for them to go elsewhere, only to encounter Wei Ancheng, the leader of the Blood River Sect, who was at the Nine Heavens realm.
During that encounter, Ye Lingxi perished.
Ye Han herself was severely injured and had to spend a significant amount of time and effort recuperating. Now, she had finally recovered.
This time, as Xu Yuanzhen led the "barbarians" to challenge Ye Moquan, the matter was of great importance, and the Jinzhou Ye Clan could not afford to be careless. Ye Han, who had been recuperating, also emerged from seclusion to join the battle.
Who would have thought that they would cross paths with Lei Jun again in this inconspicuous place, Tianle Mountain?
And who would have guessed that the Celestial Master Sword was not in Xu Yuanzhen's hands or Tang Xiaotang's, but in the hands of Lei Jun, who had just broken through to the Seventh Heaven not long ago?
How highly must the Longhu Mountain value him to entrust him with such a crucial task?!
Ye Han's vision darkened, and her eyes began to swirl with stars.
Although her father, Ye Moquan, had set up the Carefree Calamity, once it was activated, she was responsible for maintaining it from the sidelines, ensuring a continuous supply of soaring spiritual light.
However, on the flip side, if the ritual vessels were destroyed, the spiritual light would be cut off, and while it would have little impact on Ye Moquan, who was no longer present, the backlash affected Ye Han, shaking her soul as if it were about to shatter.
Far away in the ancestral land of the Jinzhou Ye Clan, Ye Moquan was already injured and did not have the clan's heirloom, the Yi Star Seal, with him. He was at a disadvantage against Xu Yuanzhen.
Fortunately, the ancestral land's restrictions and the remote connection to the heavenly light allowed Ye Moquan to hold his ground.
But soon, the starlight descending from the sky, like a starry waterfall, suddenly flickered.
Then, it began to weaken! Ye Moquan felt a sense of unease in his heart.
The Four Seasons Military Rites and the Dan Xinshui had already failed.
Now, even the Carefree Calamity seemed to be faltering?!
Xu Yuanzhen showed no mercy as she swung the Li Heng Spear, slicing through the air and completely severing the intermittent connection to the heavenly light. She then continued her attack towards Ye Moquan.
With a casual strike, she not only disrupted the ritual vessels on Tianle Mountain but also affected Ye Han, who was nearby.
Ye Han was still reeling from the backlash of the Celestial Master Sword's attack on the Carefree Calamity, and now her soul was shaken once more.
The soaring spiritual light generated by the Carefree Calamity was completely cut off.
The illusory chessboard floating in the sky, already damaged by the Celestial Master Sword, instantly vanished into thin air.
The abundant spiritual energy gathered from the four directions also scattered.
In the sky above, something seemed to flash with a faint light as it descended towards Tianle Mountain.
On the mountain, Ye Han, in her palace attire, staggered and fell to the ground in an undignified manner.
As soon as she fell, someone rushed forward to catch her.
It was Lei Jun.
Lei Jun wasted no time and rushed up the mountain. His first priority was to find Ye Han, the only one who might correspond to the Upper Realm's mention of impending danger.
With the Starlight Talismans swirling around him, Lei Jun seemed to transform into a giant composed of starlight as he struck out with a palm towards his opponent.
Ye Han was still trying to nurture and stabilize her soul and couldn't dodge in time.
Fortunately, her body was overflowing with radiant light, and her wide sleeves glowed with a star chart.
The star chart flashed, protecting Ye Han from Lei Jun's strike.
The stars collided violently, rising and falling in that instant.
"Flying Star Wide Sleeves," Lei Jun immediately recognized the technique.
He waved his hand, and the Celestial Master Sword returned to his grasp.
Lei Jun then brandished the sword, slashing at Ye Han once more.
Luckily, after the initial impact, although Ye Han's soul was heavily damaged and she was currently weak, the Flying Star Wide Sleeves bought her some breathing room, and she quickly dodged.
With the Celestial Master Sword in hand, Lei Jun channeled the surging purple Nine Heavenly Godly Thunders, attacking Ye Han while the lightning engulfed the other Ye Clan disciples assisting her.
Ye Han paid no heed to the pain in her heart. Now that the Carefree Calamity had been destroyed, there was no point in her staying any longer.
Although the sight of Lei Jun reminded her of her daughter Ye Lingxi's unfortunate demise, Ye Han had no intention of continuing their battle.
And then...
Lei Jun did not command the Thunder Dragon to charge forward.
Under his mental control, the Thunder Dragon coiled back.
The Celestial Master Sword left his hand and hung in the air alongside the Thunder Dragon.
