Invincible Kungfu Healer-Chapter 957 - Great Ambitions
Chapter 957: Great Ambitions
Thousands of sparks fell from the sky like fireworks. Mo Wen stood quietly in the air, enduring the shock from the power of destiny.
The power of destiny could not be avoided but could be warded off and resisted. Cultivators were meant to fight for their lives and go against destiny. Mo Wen was all alone in this world, so why should he fear the power of destiny? If he were to yield to the power of destiny, how would he be able to walk through the long path of cultivation?
State Preceptor Fang had a solemn look. Once the country’s destiny power was released from Chuan Country Jade Seal, some things were bound to change due to the influence. Originally he was no match for Mo Wen, but because of destiny, he was able to defeat him.
Of course, the power of destiny was unpredictable, unlike other forms of power. Some people were born with strong vitality. The normal power of destiny would assist them in growing instead of threatening them.
State Preceptor Fang stared intensely at Mo Wen. He was curious about what would happen to the young man when suppressed by Fengyu Country’s millennia destiny.
To Mo Wen, the whole sky seemed to have crashed. The wind blew and clouds tumbled as a turbulent heavenly force struck from the darkness, which seemed to carry the weight of a country and cumulation of the beliefs of a billion people.
Pfft!
Mo Wen moaned like he was struck by a hammer, and blood oozed out from the edge of his mouth. His soul was shocked and unstable, with his mind continuously rumbling. Massive country pressure inflicted him like a heavenly force.
“I’m a cultivator who wishes to compete against destiny to determine who is stronger. Why would I be suppressed by the so-called destiny?”
Mo Wen wiped off the blood from the edge of his mouth. Confronting the terrifying destiny’s heavenly force, Mo Wen still held his body upright. A source of terrifying power emerged, and his body suddenly expanded by three or four meters.
The Celestial Body!
Under extreme pressure, the Celestial Body automatically released itself, emitting a terrifying aura that seemed like a giant who could break through the sky. Although Mo Wen’s body was not as massive as a giant, he was akin to a giant standing between heaven and earth.
Two heads and four arms were the first transformations of the Celestial Body. With Mo Wen’s initial cultivation, the Celestial Body, which he could show, was only a blurry illusion of an extra head and two arms. However, under the pressure of the destiny of heavenly force, it seemed to have solidified.
At the same time, a terrifying force emerged. The Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear in the hands of Mo Wen suddenly gave out blinding lights, giving off a spectacular show of lightning and thunder like a radiant sun.
“Kill!”
Roaring to the sky, Qi rushed through the clouds and shook heaven and earth. The power that had been binding Mo Wen was instantly released like a gushing river and beasts let out of the cage. A silhouette stepped out, and merely a spear sent the Qilin Jade Seal that was hanging in the air flying.
Pfft!
“How could this be possible?”
State Preceptor Fang instantly became pale as if he had been seriously injured. He gazed over unbelieving as though he had just seen a ghost.
The Chuan Country Jade Seal! An important national weapon that contained Fengyu Country’s destiny was flung into the air!
“What a fearsome young man. Who is he exactly? Fengyu Country’s Chuan Country Jade Seal, which even normal Primordial Soul Realm mighty ones in the advance stage would not dare to provoke, could not suppress him?”
Xiang Yuanjiu and others standing outside the city were in disbelief. Who was that strong man who could send the Chuan Country Jade Seal flying?
“What a terrifying young man with great ambitions and noble aspirations,” Zhang Huishan mumbled to himself. Who exactly was the young man who could suppress the country’s destiny of Fengyu Country with his ambitions and will?
While taking each step in the air, Mo Wen dismissed the country’s destiny power and looked at State Preceptor Fang expressionlessly as he said, “Relying on external power for help when you lack individual ability weakens one’s greatness. If you don’t even have country pressure, how would you have a country’s destiny?”
With a flash of the spear, State Preceptor Fang was sent flying a hundred miles into the air, out of Li’an City, along with the Chuan Country Jade Seal, which was no longer perfect and riddled with cracks.
At the same time, the dark corpse flag, together with Demonic Corpse State Master, was also sent off by the spear, falling out of Li’an City. Evil Qi in the heaven and earth was drawn in instantly, and the Ten Thousand Soul Banner also automatically flew back into the medicine spiritual ring.
“Get lost. We’re not arch enemies, so I won’t kill you. But if you and the troops of Fengyu Country dare to step into Xiping Country again, within a year, I’ll show no mercy” Mo Wen said expressionlessly. He was neither a kind person nor a man who killed the innocent. By a twist of fate, State Preceptor Fang sacrificed his Chuan Country Jade Seal, making Mo Wen fully understand the esoteric rule for thunder with his Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear when the country’s destiny pressed on him.
The moment he fully understood the esoteric rule for thunder, he was finally able to draw out some power of the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear and send the Chuan Country Jade Seal flying.
State Preceptor Fang was in a dismal mood. He had not expected such an ending. Looking at the cracked Chuan Country Jade Seal in his hands, there was no doubt that the most valuable treasure of Fengyu Country, with a millennium of history, had turned into waste.
Not to mention whether he was able to report back, but if the young man was from Hades Mountain, the consequences would be unimaginable. He believed that Hades Mountain would not have openly interfered with the battle between Fengyu Country and Xiping Country without motivation. If they did not kill him then, they might have other plans.
In a nutshell, anything that had to do with Hades Mountain was nothing good.
…
Mo Wen returned to the inn alone, intending to stay in Li’an City for some time. Of course, he had used some methods of camouflaging while returning, so that most people had no idea where he stayed.
“Senior Huishan, what should we do now?”
Xiang Yuanjiu looked at Zhang Huishan, trembling as he spoke. No one had expected the young man to be so strong. It should have been a good thing for Xiping Country, but the key was that things would be complicated if the young man had anything to do with Hades Mountain! Xiping Country would be doomed if they were to be dragged into the matter.
“Don’t worry. Heaven and earth know that Xiping Country did not collude with Hades Mountain. We have nothing to do with the young man’s appearance. The intelligence of the Huatian Palace is everywhere, and they’ll verify this,” Zhang Huishan consoled softly, still looking solemn. No matter what, nothing good would happen from being connected to Hades Mountain.
“All of you return and resume your positions. Pacify the civilians and maintain order in the city. I’ll go pay a visit to that strong young practitioner,” Zhang Huishan said and then vanished instantly.
It was likely the intense battle broke the peace, so the sky was angered. Dark clouds covered the sky of Li’an City, and a continuous pattern of raindrops fell from the sky.
“You’re from Xiping Country?” Mo Wen asked while standing by the window, looking at the scenery of the streets as it rained.
Behind him was an old man dressed in an ancient cyan robe, who had suddenly appeared in his room.
“I’m Zhang Huishan, Sect Grand Elder of Cui Hong Sect, and also the State Preceptor of Xiping Country.”
Zhang Huishan saluted with his fists. In Peng Lai Immortal Realm, sects were of higher priority, followed by the country. Countries that did not have the support of strong sects were unable to establish themselves in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. Therefore, people from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm would normally introduce their sects first before their country.
“Why did you come to find me? Dealing with Fengyu Country was just out of my personal interests, not because I wanted to help Xiping Country,” Mo Wen calmly said.
He did not go against Fengyu Country for Xiping Country. He also did not want to get involved with anyone from Xiping Country.
“No matter what, Xiping Country is indebted to you, young hero. You may not take it to heart, but Xiping Country cannot ignore your actions,” Zhang Huishan said. If the young man was not one of the heterodox people, then it would have been a great deed to Xiping Country.
“Speak your mind. I don’t think you came to me just to say this,” Mo Wen turned to look at the old man in cyan. The man in front of him was obviously from a much higher cultivation than the State Preceptor from Fengyu Country. Could he be a cultivator from the intermediary stage of Primordial Soul Realm?
“Since you are so frank, I shall not be pretentious,” Zhang Huishan pondered for a while, then continued, “I wonder if you are a highly-skilled cultivator from Hades Mountain. If you’re connected to Hades Mountain, then you’ve got to take note. News of the battle you had today at Li’an City will spread to the Huatian Palace. I’m afraid you’ll face a catastrophe if you continue to stay in Li’an City.”
Zhang Huishan deliberated over his words. Even if Xiping Country did not report the events of the day to the Huatian Palace, there would be others to spread the news. Moreover, the Intelligence Agency of the Huatian Palace had eyes everywhere. How could they have not received news on the appearance of such an ominous object like Ten Thousand Soul Banner in Li’an City?
“You’re just afraid of being criticized for having anything to do with evil forces like the Hades Mountain, right?” Mo Wen asked in a composed manner.
“This…” Zhang Huishan forced a smile. He did not expect such a frank response.
“Don’t worry. I have no relations with Hades Mountain.”
Mo Wen shook his head while saying calmly, “Coincidentally, I’m also looking for people from the Huatian Palace. Let’s wait for them here.”
When he first came to Peng Lai Immortal Realm, he had also wanted to contact someone from the Huatian Palace. It was purely an accident that he came here, and he had no idea how to go back even though he wished to. He still had many things waiting for him to settle outside, so he could not stay in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm for too long.
“If that’s the case, I’m relieved.”
Zhang Huishan felt slightly relieved. Since the young man said that he was not from Hades Mountain and was waiting for people from the Huatian Palace, there should not be any problems.
…
Huatian Palace Headquarters!
According to rumors, the Huatian Palace Headquarters was in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, which was the truth.
The Huatian Palace had 100,000 years of history, experiencing a few rounds of changes to the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, while the outside space was just a recreated civilization with about 5,000 years of history due to an incident 10,000 years ago.
Senate, Law Enforcement Department!
“What? A Ten Thousand Soul Banner with the level of a Ten Soul Banner appeared in the Donghe Prefecture of Qu State? After lurking around for decades, are the devils from the Hades Mountain coming out to create a din?”
A veteran responsible for gathering information frowned as he looked at the data in his hands.
People from Hades Mountain blatantly creating trouble outside was nothing good.
“So young. I don’t think I’ve heard of such a person among the younger generation of Hades Mountain.”
The veteran held onto a crystal ball that recorded images of the battle above Li’an City. Mo Wen’s visuals were inside.
“So it’s this, lad. He’s not from Hades Mountain. I know him,” A voice resounded from the side, and it was none other than Wise Man Ku Ji, who had once encountered Mo Wen before.
