Unstoppable Martial Arts: Starting from Attribute Points Allocation-Chapter 957 - 473: Deduction, Backlash

Chapter 957 -473: Deduction, Backlash

“Patriarch, could the Divine Bone really be gone?” the elder looked into the Void, speaking respectfully.

His name was Cang Wu, one of the oldest existences within the Blue Sky Sect, possessing heaven-reaching abilities.

He was once a celebrated Heavenly Pride in the True Fire Domain, with potential enough to realize immortality.

However, it was unknown why, after becoming an Original-level World Master, his cultivation level ceased progressing further.

Even so, he remained one of the most eminent World Masters of the Blue Sky Sect, representing the pinnacle of combat power in both the sect and the entire True Fire Domain.

At this moment, however, there was no hint of the poise expected of a powerful being, only the meekness of a servant.

“Damage is certain, but the core parts should still be intact.” In the Void, a thin old man sat cross-legged, his facial skin rough like tree bark, but the moment his eyes opened, the purple light within flashed like lightning, sharp and startling, making the elder shudder.

His hair was sparse, like wild grass, very few strands left, fully displaying his agedness.

“That is a bone of the gods and the most critical piece, its hardness comparable to peerless Dao Weapons, even I cannot destroy it with full force.”

“However, if that incompetent used the Divine Ability he learned from it, it is true that it would indeed cause some damage to the Divine Bone.”

“If I had known earlier, ah…”

Cangqiong Ancestor sighed gently.

“The damage to the Divine Bone, hopefully, it won’t affect your plans, Patriarch,” Cang Wu asked.

“The effect will definitely be greatly reduced, but it will be easier to control when the time comes.”

Cangqiong Ancestor’s aged eyes flickered slightly: “The Divine Bone must not be lost, allow me first to make some calculations.”

As he spoke, the skin on Cangqiong Ancestor’s face began to change, gradually becoming smooth and delicate, like that of a youth in his twenties, full of vitality and vigor, yet his white hair and aged eyes remained unchanged.

Seeing Cangqiong Ancestor in this state, Cang Wu was slightly moved.

Not only was Cangqiong Ancestor proficient in refining tools, but he also excelled at divining the secrets of Heaven.

The will of Heaven is unpredictable, and fate can be fickle, foretelling it could invite backlash, and without significant reasons, Cangqiong Ancestor did not often divine such secrets.

Yet the Divine Bone was crucial, involved in the major plans of Cangqiong Ancestor.

For instance, finding a suitable carrier to nourish the Divine Bone.

Before Han Zhong, there had been a dozen carriers.

However, previous carriers either died from backlash from the Divine Bone or lacked the talent to unlock its potential.

But these carriers, undoubtedly, all provided “nourishment” for nurturing the Divine Bone.

And Han Zhong, with his constitution most suited to nurturing the Divine Bone and his considerable talent, was actually able to nurture his bloodline through the Divine Bone and even uncover secrets on it, cultivating numerous Divine Abilities.

Because of this, Cangqiong Ancestor personally crafted the Divine Dawn Battle Armor to protect this carrier, waiting for him to mature and reap the fruits.

But unexpectedly, this much-anticipated carrier had perished in the Heavenly End Secret Realm.

Most importantly, Han Zhong had used a Divine Ability, sacrificing the Divine Bone, causing it to be damaged and disrupting thousands of years of planning.

No one could understand the fury in Cangqiong Ancestor’s heart; now, he only hoped the Divine Bone wasn’t lost in the Heavenly End Secret Realm.

Such minor realms can only accommodate cultivators below the Saint Realm entering, and if the Divine Bone were to be left there…

A trace of barely perceptible anger flashed through his eyes, and Cangqiong Ancestor, having regained his youthful vitality, began using his Divine Ability to divine.

After a while, his brows furrowed tightly, “The will of Heaven is obscured and unclear, impossible to discern.”

Following that, he raised his hand and traced through the Void in front of him, a gleam flickering, and an ancient, dusky Daoist Device appeared.

This Daoist Device was oval-shaped, like a Star Plate, adorned with various mysterious and complex Runes, clearly not an ordinary Daoist device.

Cangqiong Ancestor cast several streams of Mysterious Light into the Void, which fell upon the Star Plate, and then he clasped his hands in a seal, chanting intonations.

Suddenly, the Star Plate began to rotate, releasing beams of multicolored light, shooting straight into the sky, its divine might truly inscrutable.

“This Star Plate is the Xuanji Star Plate of the Ancestor, able to obscure the will of Heaven, extinguish divine punishments, find spiritual nodes, and seek destiny. With the help of this Star Plate, we should be able to divine the whereabouts of the Divine Bone.”

Watching the Star Plate continually rotating and releasing numerous beams of light, Cang Wu thought silently.

Cangqiong Ancestor’s capability and profound mystery in divining the secrets of Heaven were already immeasurable, and now, assisted by the Xuanji Star Plate, a treasure of Heaven, there was little within the expansive True Fire Domain that could evade detection.

Indeed, the very next moment, a change occurred.

From the Star Plate, intertwining beams of mysterious light spun out, evolving a scene within the Void.

In this scene, Han Zhong’s Cave Heavens and Heaven and Earth merged as one, his expression maniacal, recklessly deploying a great Divine Ability, summoning a towering phantom.

The scene was incredibly blurry, the phantom’s face indiscernible, only its figure filling the Void, then striking down with a palm from the skies.

As this palm struck, heaven and earth shattered, the sun and moon darkened; at the center of the scene, Han Zhong’s physical body exploded, the Divine Bone within also shattering violently, releasing endless Divine Light.

At the end, only a small segment of the Divine Bone, turning into Rainbow Light, soared upward and disappeared from the scene.

“Damn, the Divine Bone has suffered such heavy damage.” Cangqiong Ancestor wiped a trace of blood from the corner of his mouth, his voice chillingly cold.

“Ancestor, are you alright?” Cang Wu was startled by Cangqiong Ancestor’s appearance.

In the past, he had seen the other person use the Xuanji Star Plate without any backlash.

But this time, before he could even deduce the whereabouts of the Divine Bone, he was counterattacked so severely that he vomited blood and even his normally smooth skin became somewhat rough.

“It’s no big deal. The deduction just now involved the gods, some backlash is normal and bearable.” Cangqiong Ancestor waved his hand, took out a purple-golden pill, and swallowed it, his pale face somewhat recovering.

Then, he restarted the Xuanji Star Plate and began to use his Divine Ability to deduce the whereabouts of the fragment of the bone.

A column of light shot up into the sky, weaving together a scene.

It was an area like ruins, where one could vaguely see the outline of mountains and dangerous peaks.

In a relatively hidden corner, there was a flicker of golden light.

Seeing this, Cangqiong Ancestor’s expression tightened.

This place was clearly the area destroyed by the palm of a divine shadow, a wilderness and ruins for hundreds of thousands of miles. If the Divine Bone fragment had fallen here, it would likely never see the light of day again.

Cang Wu’s heart also felt uneasy, well aware of how much his ancestor valued this Divine Bone and the price he had paid for it.

Fortunately, the result did not disappoint them, and soon a person staggered over.

The man’s face and body were unclear, as if a mysterious veil covered him.

But that didn’t matter; the important thing was that a person was present, which meant the Divine Bone would not be buried in the Heavenly End Secret Realm and there was a chance to retrieve it.

However, the person seemed to be severely injured. Could he withstand the impact of the energy of the Divine Bone?

If he was carelessly blasted by the dispersing Divine Power of the Divine Bone…

The worst-case scenario did not occur, and the man slowly bent down, picked up the fragment of the Divine Bone, and held it like an ordinary piece of bone with no anomalies occurring.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

Seeing this, Cangqiong Ancestor’s pupils shrank and his face was full of disbelief.

“Who is this person, that even his compatibility with the Divine Bone surpasses that of Han Zhong!” the Cang Wu Realm Lord exclaimed in his heart.

Normally, if a person touched the Divine Bone, even if they were not blasted by its Divine Power, they would be severely injured.

Yet this person was able to safely pick up the Divine Bone without any anomalies.

Could it be that because of the sacrifice, the Divine Bone was severely damaged and had lost its former power?

While Cang Wu was astonished, Cangqiong Ancestor once again used his Divine Ability to deduce the background of this person.

At that moment, the Xuanji Star Plate shook violently, and the emitted mysterious light column was very strange, forming an obscure and unclear scene.

“Crack!”

Suddenly, a crisp sound rang out, and a fine crack appeared on the Xuanji Star Plate.

Following that, Cangqiong Ancestor’s figure violently shook, and a mouthful of old blood spurted out. His rosy and lustrous face slackened and aged, and his entire being seemed to have received a terrible blow.

In the depths of the Secret Realm, the sky was a deep blue, endless.

A figure swiftly flew through the high sky, landing on a large tree.

Not far away, waves surged, and mist curled up, revealing a vibrant blue spiritual lake.

The lake’s surface rippled, and spiritual birds frolicked, with white clouds reflecting on the surface, making it resemble an Immortal Realm.

By the lake, various fierce birds lounged, lazily soaking in the warm sun and the nourishment of the spiritual lake.

Lu Yun retracted his Demon Wings, his body lightly landing on a piece of green stone by the lake, the fierce birds and beasts frightened away by his powerful aura.

With a thought, dozens of strands of Golden Light flew out, transforming into blades and piercing through the bodies of various fierce birds and beasts.

Following that, the Hell Furnace rose and sucked in all the corpses on the ground, beginning the smelting process.

Although the smelted Primordial Essence could no longer awaken the micro-particles of his physical body, it could merge with his body to further strengthen it, breaking the limits of the physical body.

Before long, the bodies of dozens of fierce birds and beasts were completely refined, and his Luck Value soared.

“The Heavenly and Earthly Spiritual Qi here is several times denser than in other places; could there be treasure medicine growing here?”

Thinking this, Lu Yun used his Eyes of Aurora to observe the lakebed.

The lake was deep and clear, various fish and shrimp visible, with beautiful Crystal Stones twinkling on the bottom.

Suddenly, Lu Yun frowned slightly, looking up into the sky.

He faintly felt as if a pair of eyes was watching him from the sky.

However, this sensation quickly disappeared.
