Chapter 610: Celestial Thievery Sect and the Ziwei Emperor
Chapter 610: Celestial Thievery Sect and the Ziwei Emperor
Under the cover of night, countless white-robed figures drifted across the mountains and fields, their silhouettes appearing ethereal and phantom-like, not making a sound.
In the forest, Zhu Xi witnessed this scene, her brows furrowed in concern.
She slowly retreated into the darkness, turning to walk deeper into the woods.
Moonlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, illuminating her figure. She wore a deep purple robe, her hair neatly coiled atop her head, exuding an air of dignity.
Having left the Heavenly Spirit Grand World for tens of thousands of years, her experiences had already transformed her.
She approached a stone statue in the forest, reaching out to caress it while murmuring an enigmatic incantation.
After a few breaths, a faint green figure flew out from within the statue. It was an old woman in a Daoist robe, appearing like a soul, her face covered in black spots that were particularly frightening.
Looking at Zhu Xi, the old woman chuckled, "Out of options?"
Zhu Xi took two steps back and asked, "Tell me, how should we cooperate, and what do I need to offer?"
The old woman fixed her gaze on Zhu Xi, her expression filled with mockery, and said, "It's simple. Let me temporarily possess your body, and once we're out, I'll leave your body."
At these words, Zhu Xi's brows furrowed deeply.
"Each of those departed souls has cultivation surpassing yours. They just can't enter this forest. Unless you want to stay here forever, this is your only chance, as long as you trust me." The old woman continued to persuade her, her eyes burning with intensity as she stared at Zhu Xi.
She paused, then added, "Don't forget, without me, you'd be dead by now."
Zhu Xi's eyes flickered with hesitation, torn with indecision.
After a long while, Zhu Xi lifted her gaze to the old woman and said, "I can agree to your request, but first, tell me your name and the origin of this Dao Ground."
The old woman revealed a smile and said, "I'm known as Dao Xuan Tian Ji, and this Dao Ground was left behind by the Ziwei Emperor. He set up this place as a seal, and the most terrifying thing here isn't those departed souls. He left behind a part of himself here, and based on my observations, this part was meant for his revival."
Ziwei Emperor? Zhu Xi silently noted the name and followed up, "Then let's begin."
Dao Xuan Tian Ji asked with a smile that didn't quite reach her eyes, "Do you want me to help you seize some opportunities? I know where those good treasures are hidden."
Zhu Xi shook her head, "No need. Let's get out of here quickly."
Dao Xuan Tian Ji's lips curled upward, and she entered Zhu Xi's body. Instantly, the stone statue burst into green light, swiftly illuminating her.
Zhu Xi closed her eyes, accepting what was about to happen.
Far away, in the Primordial Dao Ground, Gu An raised an eyebrow slightly.
This Dao Xuan Tian Ji was from the Celestial Thievery Sect!
The Celestial Thievery Sect was the sect of the Eternal Emperor, even though he had taken over the position. The Eternal Emperor had left his mark in the sect's cause and effect and fortune.
The Eternal Emperor's Immortal Emperor's Pupil was inherited from the previous sect leader, which allowed Gu An to cultivate the Immortal Emperor's Pupil as well. This unique ability was incredibly versatile, and at the very least, his Immortal Emperor's Pupil could reverse everything.
Gu An could sense that a portion of the cause and effect within Dao Xuan Tian Ji belonged to the Eternal Emperor.
Before leaving the Celestial Thievery Sect, the Eternal Emperor had left behind numerous legacies, and Dao Xuan Tian Ji had received one of them.
Could it be that all the departed souls in this Dao Ground were from the Celestial Thievery Sect? Gu An also wondered about the well-being of the Dark Demon Emperor, a figure who had always assisted the Eternal Emperor, leaving a deep impression on Gu An.
The Dark Demon Emperor was the most loyal disciple of the Celestial Thievery Sect, dedicating his entire life to finding ways to restore the sect.
Speaking of which, the Celestial Thievery Sect had offended the Heavenly Court and had to flee, only to be suppressed by the Ziwei Emperor. Could this be the will of the Heavenly Court?
Gu An recalled that the Ziwei Emperor looked identical to the Ziwei Immortal Emperor, who was the master of the Immortal Palace when the Celestial Spirit Deity and the Heavenly Spirit Immortal Sovereign met. He was a deity of the Heavenly Court.
Gu An continued to observe Zhu Xi's actions.
In his memory, Zhu Xi was always cautious and wouldn't easily entrust her fate to others.
After being possessed by Dao Xuan Tian Ji, Zhu Xi used a special secret technique and quietly left the forest.
Along the way, she encountered numerous departed souls, all of them powerful, and some even had the aura of Golden Immortals. However, none of them noticed her.
In the blink of an eye, time passed.
The next day, at noon, Shen Zhen finally woke up.
Gu An stood up, not bothering to ask what she had realized. Instead, he left with a single sentence, "Don't be too fixated. Sometimes, taking a break can be more helpful."
"Shen Zhen came back to her senses, but he was nowhere to be seen.
'It seems I've been too focused on enlightenment lately. That Tian Hao really got to me,' Shen Zhen muttered to herself as she stood up and began to tidy up the easel.
Her mood wasn't too bad, even though she hadn't made any progress yet. She had all the time in the world to gain insight.
Within the Primordial Dao Ground, she never had to worry about danger, and time seemed to stretch endlessly.
As she pondered whether to write or go shopping at the Heaven and Earth Sect, Zhu Xi was facing a life-and-death battle.
In the vast cosmic void, Zhu Xi stood suspended, gripping a long sword and staring expressionlessly at the Celestial Thievery Fairy in front of her.
The Celestial Thievery Fairy looked younger than before, with a seductive and demonic appearance, only a few dark spots remaining on her face.
She glared at Zhu Xi, grinding her teeth and asking, "What cultivation technique do you practice? How can you protect your origin soul?"
Zhu Xi lifted her sword, pointing it at the fairy, and said, "Have you heard of the Great Dao Solemnity Skill?"
The Celestial Thievery Fairy's face paled, and in an instant, the void around them changed color. Twisted green light appeared in all directions, making the void seem like an illusion.
"Whose disciple from the Heavenly Court are you?" the fairy asked in a deep voice, her eyes filled with hatred.
Zhu Xi coldly snorted, "I have no connection to the Heavenly Court. I'm just an ordinary person from a mortal realm. If you insist on occupying my physical body, then let's have a fight to the death. It's either your soul's destruction or my demise, and may the better one prevail!"
As she spoke, she exuded the aura of the Holy Court, an aura cultivated through years of being invincible, fearless of all.
Suddenly, the Celestial Thievery Fairy flung her arms wide, and in an instant, countless shadows appeared amidst the writhing green light in the void, like countless arrows raining down on Zhu Xi.
Before Zhu Xi could react to these shadows, a green pillar of light descended from above, enveloping her.
Everything happened so fast that Zhu Xi didn't have time to dodge.
'Dare the Profound Origin Freedom Realm Immortal defy me?' the Celestial Thievery Fairy said disdainfully.
The shadows rushing towards Zhu Xi quickly surrounded the green pillar of light, forming circles upon circles, resembling a formation.
Upon closer inspection, these shadows resembled the spirits from the secret realm.
Zhu Xi was unable to move, feeling as if her body was being devoured by countless ants.
She didn't despair; instead, strands of vigorous energy emanated from her, encircling her body. Gradually, golden threads appeared on her forehead, intertwining to form a golden lotus that blossomed there.
The Celestial Thievery Fairy's pupils dilated, and just as she was about to speak, a dazzling golden light burst forth from Zhu Xi's golden lotus, piercing through the green pillar and annihilating the souls in its path.
In an instant, the Celestial Thievery Fairy dodged, teleporting to another location.
As soon as she appeared, she saw that Zhu Xi's figure was no longer within the formation she had created.
A sword light suddenly struck, and Zhu Xi appeared behind her, beheading her with a single strike. The sword light stretched infinitely long after the strike, eradicating the twisted green light in the void and restoring the darkness.
The Celestial Thievery Fairy's head spun in the void, and she saw Zhu Xi's sword-wielding figure.
'You...'
The Celestial Thievery Fairy was enraged, her seductive face contorting.
Just as she was about to counterattack, a hand suddenly grabbed her head, immobilizing her.
Her eyes widened in shock, and she cried out, "Who?"
Zhu Xi stopped and saw the figure holding the Celestial Thievery Fairy's head, her eyes filled with apprehension.
It was a man dressed in a purple robe adorned with dragon patterns, wearing a diadem with bead curtains, and with eighteen purple-scaled dragon spirits writhing behind him. His expression was cold and detached.
'Purple Microcosm Emperor! How is this possible? You...'
The Celestial Thievery Fairy exclaimed in shock, but before she could finish, the Purple Microcosm Emperor crushed her soul, causing her spiritual body to vanish without a trace.
After doing this, the Purple Microcosm Emperor's indifferent gaze fell upon Zhu Xi, making her tremble with fear.
She was horrified to realize that she couldn't find an escape route, and her intuition told her that if she dared to move, she would immediately face death.
