Chapter 664 Divine Weapon Sighs

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

In the Cloud Tower of the Lingxiao Sect, Bai Qi and Empress Xiaohe were drinking tea.

“Tsk tsk, I didn’t expect Mysterious Fate to suffer such a calamity. Back then, the three great transcendent orthodoxies were existences that we immortals looked up to. Every time I think of this, I feel that the development speed of the immortal Dao is unimaginable. Usually, I feel that time passes so slowly. As expected, many things have to be compared.”

Bai Qi sighed. Recently, a major event had spread from the boundless to the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm, causing many mighty figures to sigh.

Mysterious Fate was destroyed by an unknown force!

Town Hall escaped into the depths of the boundless world!

The three transcendent orthodoxies of the past no longer existed, and Dao Yan had also been integrated into the Immortal Dao. Right now, there was only one overlord in this vast domain, and that was the Immortal Dao. Moreover, the reputation of the Immortal Dao had surpassed the three overlords of the past, and their name could intimidate the surrounding domains.

Empress Xiaohe asked, “Could this be a scheme against the Immortal Dao? After all, Zhou Gua is about to arrive. Anyone with discerning eyes can see that Mysterious Fate and Town Hall will be assimilated by the Immortal Dao sooner or later. But right now, we have lost the strength of both transcendent orthodoxy. The losses are not small.”

Bai Qi nodded and said, “That’s what I thought too. The Dao Sect has sent someone to investigate.”

Speaking of the fall of Mysterious Fate, Bai Qi felt extremely emotional and began to recall the structure of the void back then.

Empress Xiaohe listened for a while and asked at the right time, “Is the Dao Ancestor still in seclusion?”

When she heard her mention the Dao Ancestor, Bai Qi revealed a smile and said, “That’s right. He has been in seclusion for longer and longer, but every time I see him, I can sense that he has become stronger. He is really unfathomable. Even someone as strong as the Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Immortal would probably feel that they are still mortals when they see him.”

Such a description made Empress Xiaohe look forward to it.

Bai Qi seemed to have thought of something and asked, “Did you have a relationship with the Dao Ancestor in the past?”

Empress Xiaohe shook her head. She had only met the Dao Ancestor a few times, and no one recognized his identity. Since the Dao Ancestor did not want to admit it, she would not tell anyone.

However, when she thought of her fate with the Dao Ancestor, she also found it strange. She could not tell if she had met the Dao Ancestor first or if the Dao Ancestor had taken a fancy to her. Perhaps they had chosen each other along the path.

Even though she usually could not see the Dao Ancestor, she believed that he was paying attention to her. Therefore, she had been cultivating diligently, as she did not want to disappoint him.

“By the way, are you confident that you can reach the Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Immortal?”

Bai Qi changed the topic and asked. Right now, on the surface, there were still only the Three Saints of the Immortal Dao in the Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Realm. Everybody was waiting for the birth of the fourth Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Immortal.

She knew that Mu Lingluo had become a Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Realm Immortal, but Mu Lingluo did not like undeserved fame, so she only recognized the three Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Immortal. In fact, there was a rumor circulating in the myriad worlds that the Dao Ancestor’s Dao companion was also a Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Immortal.

Empress Xiaohe shook her head and said, “I’m still far from it. The Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Realm is too difficult to reach.”

The higher the realm, the more difficult it was. However, the difficulty of reaching the Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Realm was even more terrifying. At the very least, a Zenith Heaven Immortal could be born every ten thousand years, but it was hard to produce a Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Immortal in three million years. Ever since the Three Saints of the Immortal Dao, no one had reached the Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Realm. There was not even a trace of opportunity to break through.

Bai Qi shook her head and said, “The Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Realm is indeed difficult, but you are one of the Nine Absolute Beginning Saints, so you must have high hopes. Perhaps you should think about which Great Dao is most suitable for you.”

When Empress Xiaohe heard that, she fell into deep thought.

Bai Qi had stayed by the Dao Ancestor’s side for the longest time, so her words were obviously a reminder to her.

Studying one path…

Empress Xiaohe recalled her techniques and pondered about what was suitable for her.

For some reason, she remembered the dojo where she first met the Dao Ancestor. Speaking of which, at that time, she was still listening to Kunlun Dao. Now, Kunlun Dao had also reached the Zenith Heaven Divine Idol Realm.

Somehow, she seemed to have grasped something.

Seeing that she was deep in thought, Bai Qi did not disturb her. She drank her tea and savored the scenery of the Lingxiao Sect.

In the Dao Sect, a floating island hung on the horizon, surrounded by a sea of clouds. It was as beautiful as a painting.

There was a platform made of white jade on the floating island, and four figures were meditating there. They were Dao Lord Nirvana, Supreme Kunlun, and the other two Zenith Heaven Immortals.

Currently, with the addition of Kunlun Dao, there were five Zenith Heaven Realm experts in the Dao Sect. With this number, they were considered the number one merit sect, and the Buddhist Sect was inferior.

“Zhou Gua is about to arrive. The Dao Sect should prepare to accept disciples,” Dao Lord Nirvana said.

This was also the strategy of all the Zenith Heaven Sects. Recruiting disciples among the various races could allow the sects to have a deeper foundation in the Immortal Dao. Even though they had not come into contact with the Zhou Gua cultivators, they were people who came from a transcendent orthodoxy that the Dao Ancestor had personally taken action against. Their talent was definitely not bad.

Furthermore, the Karma Dao was very compatible with the Dao Sect!

The Supreme Kunlun said with a calm expression, “There’s no problem with recruiting disciples from Zhou Gua. However, compared to them, I’d like to know how the Heavenly Court will deal with the Great Dao Divine Weapon and if Zhou Gua has a second Great Dao Divine Weapon.”

Ever since Jiang Jian brought back the Great Dao Divine Weapon, all the Zenith Heaven Immortals could sense the vast aura of the Great Dao that it emitted.

Even the Supreme Kunlun was tempted by the powerful aura of the Great Dao.

Dao Lord Nirvana’s expression did not change as he said indifferently, “Since it was obtained by the Heavenly Court, it should be decided by them.”

The Supreme Kunlun frowned and said, “The consequences of accepting Zhou Gua is not something the Heavenly Court will face alone, but the entire Immortal Dao. As the number one sect, the Dao Sect will naturally shoulder more responsibilities and pressure. Why can’t the Dao Sect have a fair chance to compete for the Great Dao Divine Weapon?”

The moment he said that, the two other Zenith Heaven Immortals nodded.

In the past, when faced with important matters related to the future of the Immortal Dao, the Celestial Emperor would discuss it with the Zenith Heaven Sects from all sides. Now that Great Emperor Ziwei was in power, he would do whatever he wanted and only care about the Heavenly Court. Even though it was more efficient to do this, it would also harm the interests of the Zenith Heaven Sects.

Dao Lord Nirvana frowned and did not answer immediately.

Great Dao Divine Weapons were of great importance. How could the Heavenly Court give up?

Furthermore, if they wanted it, did the Buddhist Sect not want it?

How could the other Zenith Heaven Sects let the matter go when they saw their actions?

At the same time, the Buddhist Sect was indeed discussing this matter. Right now, the Buddhist Sect was under the sole control of the Future Buddha. There were also two more Zenith Heaven Buddhas. There were a total of three, and they respectively called themselves the Past Buddha, Present Buddha, and the Future Buddha.

Even though the Dao Sect and the Buddhist Sect had been established for a long time, the number of Zenith Heaven Immortals had not increased. That was because those who had become Zenith Heaven Immortals wanted to establish their own sects and enjoy great luck. Therefore, the existence of Great Dao Divine Weapons was hard to ignore for the Dao Sect and the Buddhist Sect.

Ultimately, the pressure fell on Great Emperor Ziwei, Jiang Xiu.

However, Jiang Xiu revealed an even more unyielding attitude than the Celestial Emperor, claiming that the Great Dao Divine Weapon could only belong to the Heavenly Court. When the matter reached the Celestial Emperor, he had no choice but to come out of seclusion and teach Jiang Xiu a lesson. He told Jiang Xiu to be more polite to the Zenith Heaven Immortals, and after that, the matter was left unsettled.

However, the Heavenly Court was also in a dilemma.

No Zenith Heaven Immortal in the Heavenly Court could subdue the Great Dao Divine Weapon, so they could only continue to wait.

Jiang Jian had only brought it back, so it was not difficult to drive its power.

In the Forbidden Prison of the Heavenly Court.

Thunderclouds surged and eight white jade pillars surrounded it. Eight chains wrapped around a huge divine weapon that was plastered with various talismans.

This divine weapon was a huge halberd. It was completely silver in color and flowed with traces of lightning and strange light.

The halberd’s blade was domineering, similar to an azure dragon that resided in its territory. Its body was magnificent and emitted an endless aura. It was similar to the pillar of the god of creation, unmoved and immovable, causing all beings who gazed upon it to be fearful.

Outside the formation, two Heavenly Soldiers were waiting. They were used to this scene and were currently meditating.

Suddenly, one of the Heavenly Soldiers opened his eyes and frowned as he looked at the Great Dao Divine Weapons in the distance.

“Hey, did you hear anything?”

The Heavenly Soldier looked at his companion and asked in a deep voice. When he heard that, his companion opened his eyes and looked over.

The two of them stared at the Great Dao Divine Weapon for a long time but did not see anything unusual.

“Don’t tell me you misheard?”

“No, I definitely heard it. Someone is sighing.”

“Sigh? Could it be that someone has snuck in and we are too weak to notice?”

“No, it’s the Great Dao Divine Weapon sighing… Should I report this?”

“This concerns the Great Dao Divine Weapon, so it’s better to report it. I would rather make a small mistake than commit a huge crime.”

“Alright! I’ll go, you keep watch!”

With that said, both the Heavenly Soldiers stood up and one of them quickly left the prison.

After a while, just as the other Heavenly Soldier was about to sit down, a voice suddenly sounded in their ears.

“Alas!”

This sigh made his whole body tense up and he immediately turned around.

The Great Dao Divine Weapon in the formation did not move, and there was nothing unusual around it. However, he was sure that he did not hear wrongly. The voice came from the Great Dao Divine Weapon.

“Could it be that there’s an artifact spirit?”

The Heavenly Soldier frowned as he thought about it. It was not rare for a powerful magical weapon to give birth to an artifact spirit, let alone a Great Dao Divine Weapon.

However, the artifact spirit nurtured by a Great Dao Divine Weapon could not be a God of Great Dao, right…

Just as he was nervous, the sigh sounded again, clearer.

“Alas!”

Every time the sigh sounded, it was stronger. Towards the end, it was as deafening as thunder to the Heavenly Soldier.

Gradually, the Heavenly Soldier was stunned. His eyes lost their luster and he subconsciously flew towards the Great Dao Divine Weapon.

Just as he was about to reach the edge of the formation, a figure appeared out of thin air and pressed down on his shoulders. At the same time, a stream of magic power shocked him awake.

When the Heavenly Soldier woke up, he trembled and subconsciously turned around. He immediately bowed in panic and said, “Greetings, Saint!”

It was Jiang Jian.

Jiang Xiu followed behind. The Heavenly Soldiers hurriedly bowed to him.

“All of you may leave.”

Jiang Xiu waved his sleeve and the two Heavenly Soldiers immediately left.

Very soon, only Jiang Xiu and Jiang Jian were left in the prison.

“Does this weapon really have an artifact spirit?” Jiang Xiu asked in confusion.

If there was an artifact spirit, it would be even more difficult to subdue.

Jiang Jian stared at the Great Dao Divine Weapon and said, “I don’t think it’s an artifact spirit. That sigh just now might have been released by someone when they faced it in the past and recorded it.”

Jiang Xiu’s frown deepened and he sighed. “We have a Great Dao Divine Weapon but we are unable to subdue it. What is this? I knew that Zhou Xiao was not that kind-hearted.”

Speaking of this, he felt great anger towards Zhou Gua and felt as if he had been toyed with.

At present, the Great Dao Divine Weapon only brought trouble and did not bring any benefits to the Heavenly Court.

Jiang Jian narrowed his eyes and said, “I have a feeling that it might be summoning someone. Perhaps it has found its master.”
