Chapter 1616 Star Plucking Hand

After the Martial Dao Prime Body said that, the entire library fell into silence.

“Hehehehe…!”

A long time later, a sinister laughter sounded from the library.

The old man raised his head slowly and revealed a pair of hazy eyes. Grinning, he revealed a yellow tooth and his face was filled with wrinkles. With a menacing smile, he looked like a malevolent ghost! “Young man, do you know who you’re talking to?”

The old man glared at the face of the Martial Dao Prime Body and asked slowly. Although the old man was already in his twilight years, his gaze was still sharp and he wanted to see through the fog on the face of the Martial Dao Prime Body.

However, the fog was extremely mysterious and he could not see through it no matter what!

“A Patriarch on the brink of death,”

The Martial Dao Prime Body replied blandly.

“Mmm?”

The old man’s heart skipped a beat as he asked with a narrowed gaze, “You’re able to see through my cultivation?”

He had been hiding his cultivation realm the entire time. In the eyes of outsiders, he was just an ordinary Conjoint Body Mighty Figure.

To think that his background would be exposed by a single sentence of the Martial Dao Prime Body!

Actually, the moment the Martial Dao Prime Body descended above Heavenly Dipper Sect and released his spirit consciousness, he had already discovered the Patriarch hidden in the library!

To be precise, after the Martial Dao Prime Body released his spirit consciousness and scanned the place, he knew how many Half-Martial Ancestors and Conjoint Body Mighty Figures Heavenly Dipper Sect had. In fact, he even knew how many of them were in seclusion!

Nothing about Heavenly Dipper Sect could be hidden from the eyes and spirit consciousness of the Martial Dao Prime Body!

“Who are you?!”

The old man’s gaze turned increasingly cold as he asked slowly.

“I’m Desolate Martial,”

The Martial Dao Prime Body replied blandly.

“Impossible!”

The old man said resolutely, “I heard that Desolate Martial’s two true bodies are already gathered at Enigma Palace and can’t escape at all. How can you be him?!”

The Martial Dao Prime Body smiled and ignored it. His spirit consciousness moved and he was prepared to collect all the ancient books in the place.

Suddenly!

The old man hollered softly, “Astral Illumination!”

A powerful divine power spread and a gigantic star appeared above the old man’s head. It descended with a bedazzling starlight and stabbed towards the Martial Dao Prime Body!

“Fu…”

The Martial Dao Prime Body chuckled and shook his head. “You truly have a death wish.”

Against the descending starlight, the Martial Dao Prime Body reached out against the starlight and grabbed towards the firmaments!

A massive hand blanketed the skies, threatening to disrupt the galaxies!

Piak!

The next moment, the heavenly-encompassing palm grabbed the star above the old man’s head and yanked it down from the firmaments!

The old man’s eyes were widened with deep shock.

In his heart, while the Martial Dao Prime Body was mysterious, he was only a Half-Martial Ancestor.

Although he was old, if he released his divine power, he would definitely be able to severely injure the purple-robed mysterious man or even kill him!

However, the old man had not expected that his divine power would be destroyed by this mysterious person barehanded!

The Destiny Star that he cultivated was captured from the firmaments by this mysterious person!

Most importantly, the technique released by that mysterious person earlier on was clearly the strongest secret skill of Heavenly Dipper Sect—the Star Plucking Hand!

Only a Half-Martial Ancestor of Heavenly Dipper Sect was qualified to cultivate the Star Plucking Hand.

How did this purple-robed mysterious man know about it?

Back then, Di Fan, Half-Martial Ancestor Di Jue and the others went to Ping Yang Town to take revenge on Desolate Martial. However, they were all killed by the Martial Dao Prime Body.

Among them was a Half-Martial Ancestor of Heavenly Dipper Sect, Illumination. That secret skill was obtained by the Martial Dao Prime Body from the storage bag of Half-Martial Ancestor Illumination.

The reason why the Star Plucking Hand was the strongest secret skill of Heavenly Dipper Sect was not merely because of how strong it was.

More than that, it was because a supreme divine power was hidden in the Star Plucking Hand!

If one were to cultivate the Star Plucking Hand to its peak, they might be able to comprehend the supreme divine power… the true Star Plucking Hand!

When released, that supreme divine power could truly pluck the stars in the firmaments and use them as his weapons to fight against enemies!

“Y-Y-You…”

The old man was already speechless and his expression was dark.

His lifespan was about to end and his Essence Spirit became extremely weak after releasing that divine power.

To think that the divine power would be destroyed by the Martial Dao Prime Body with ease!

The Martial Dao Prime Body had a calm expression. After plucking the star that the old man condensed, he exerted strength in his palm.

Snap!

The star was crushed by the Martial Dao Prime Body in front of the old man!

The old man shuddered as though he was struck by lightning and his expression turned even more terrible as his lifeforce drained rapidly.

His remaining lifespan could not sustain the consecutive losses and attacks.

This Mahayana Patriarch was going to die even without the Martial Dao Prime Body attacking!

Outside the library, above Tian Kui Peak.

Elder Zhan Long and the other two Half-Martial Ancestors did not leave and waited for the final outcome patiently.

Before long, a shuddering aura spread out from the library!

Even through the tightly shut door, the three Half-Martial Ancestors in midair could sense the fluctuation of the divine powers in the library!

“Elder Sun has attacked!”

Elder Zhan Long was delighted and could not help but laugh.

Another Half-Martial Ancestor heaved a sigh of relief as well. “No matter how strong that purple-robed mysterious man is, he’s only a Half-Martial Ancestor. He’ll definitely die against the descent of a divine power!”

True enough.

After a fight broke out in the library, everything returned to normal and there were no signs of life.

“Let’s go down and see just who that purple-robed mysterious man is!” Elder Zhan Long smiled gently and descended in front of the library with the two Half-Martial Ancestors beside him.

Creak!

The moment the three of them arrived at the entrance, the door to the library opened on its own!

The library was dark and deep, exuding a sinister and calm aura that even the spirit consciousnesses of Elder Zhan Long and the other two could not penetrate.

Suddenly!

A figure flew out.

“Watch out!”

The expressions of Elder Zhan Long and the other two changed. They did not dare to take it head-on and retreated one after another to dodge.

Bang!

The figure fell to the ground motionlessly.

The door to the library closed once more, shutting slowly. The three of them focused their gazes and saw that the figure lying on the ground was the Mahayana Patriarch of the library, Elder Sun!

At that moment, Elder Sun’s eyes were widened with endless fear in them. There was no longer any life within his body and he could not rest in peace.

Dead!

The Mahayana Patriarch guarding the library was dead!

“Ah!”

Elder Zhan Long and the other two exclaimed as they felt chills run down their spines.

“H-Hurry and inform the sect master!”

A Half-Martial Ancestor said hurriedly with a trembling voice.

Even without his reminder, Elder Zhan Long had already slapped his storage bag. He withdrew a talisman, ripping it apart!

The talisman shattered and a beam of light shot into the void, vanishing.

This was a distress talisman for reinforcements from the sect and would definitely not be used unless the sect was at risk of being annihilated!
