Secret Buyer-Chapter 293 - 225: Beat the Drum, Grand Rite, Call the Divine Descent!

Chapter 293: Chapter 225: Beat the Drum, Grand Rite, Call the Divine Descent!

No, no, still no.

Luo Cheng sighed softly:

"There’s only one last giant peak far away, could it be there?"

He was somewhat fatigued; the Qi Observation Technique was mysteriously profound, but likewise, it consumed a great deal of energy. Even though both were Martial Arts Masters, it was becoming hard to bear.

"Most likely not...but we should go take a look."

As they approached the giant peak, their expressions subtly changed.

Someone was there.

At the foot of the giant peak, a middle-aged man was sitting cross-legged, eyes closed, completely still.

"Is he in secluded cultivation?"

Li Yiyi hesitated for a moment:

"We’d better not get too close; anyone who can cultivate calmly in the Great Wilderness is not an ordinary person. Just glance at the giant peak from afar."

Luo Cheng nodded in agreement.

Both placed their hands on the compass, silently operating the Qi Observation Technique, as a clear stream flowed from their eyes, becoming hazy like mist.

Under Qi Observation, it was evident that the giant peak was not the burial site of an ancient predecessor; it was plain and unremarkable.

Li Yiyi couldn’t resist and used the Qi Observation Technique to look at the middle-aged man.

"Holy shit!"

Her expression changed, seeing a dazzling brilliance in the middle-aged man’s brow, four furnace fires floating up and down,

Inside his body, there was an acupoint glowing—not an acupoint.

It was a Grotto Heaven.

"Innate Realm!"

They were both horrified, genuinely frightened. To encounter someone of the Innate Realm just randomly in the wilderness!

Li Yiyi’s throat stirred, and under Qi Observation, she could see that the person’s fate was exceptionally weighty,

Presenting as a faint red color, almost steaming into a small lake!

"Fate as a faint red lake, meaning that fortune has risen in recent years, blessed by a noble patron...damn it."

Li Yiyi took Luo Cheng and planned to flee immediately.

Noble patron.

What kind of being could display a faint red noble fate through the destiny of an Innate Realm expert?

A legendary Celestial Human?

Just as they were about to leave.

"What is that?" Luo Cheng exclaimed, and Li Yiyi instinctively looked.

Beside the middle-aged man sitting cross-legged with closed eyes, strands of chaotic fog emerged,

Those chaotic fogs swirled, gradually thickening, and shockingly manifested into a vague humanoid shape, transforming into an old man!

Li Yiyi’s eyes still flowed with clear air, and the Qi Observation Technique had not yet dissipated.

At that moment, she glanced.

She felt as though she had gone blind.

White.

All she saw was an intense and pure white, emanating from the place of the chaotic figure, surging wildly in all directions,

In just the span of a breath, that pure white color had steamed into a genuine abyssal sea, covering vast swathes of the mountains!

"Oh my..."

Luo Cheng murmured:

"What kind of fortune is this?"

Both had tears of blood flowing from their eyes.

Li Yiyi grabbed Luo Cheng and fled frantically into the distance, not daring to look back at all!

At the same time.

The chaotic figure curiously glanced.

"Two Martial Arts Masters..."

Zhang Fusheng didn’t care, shifting his gaze back to Du Mingsheng, who was trying to transform his acupoint into a Grotto Heaven, seemingly sensing something, and slowly opened his eyes.

"True Man!"

He was startled and quickly stood up to pay respects.

"Mm."

Zhang Fusheng nodded, casually saying:

"I come to convey a message for the Master of the Nine Netherworld; He bestows upon you the position of Thousand-Year Refining Spirit, so now, it is time for you to fulfill your promise."

Du Mingsheng felt a chill in his heart, swallowed his saliva:

"I am willing to offer the causation between me and the Book of Life and Death."

As he spoke, he saw the True Man slightly nod, lightly saying:

"Though I am merely an incarnation of a single thought, it is sufficient. Upon the Master of the Nine Netherworld’s entrustment, I shall divine a bit for Him."

As he spoke,

Zhang Fusheng extended his hand, quietly using the technique gained after achieving Minor Achievement in the Taiyi Chapter.

[Hand Imbued with Cause and Effect].

The so-called Hand Imbued with Cause and Effect, to put it plainly, is the ability to touch [the power of causality].

The originally intangible and invisible, near-conceptual cause and effect, can now be directly touched and even manipulated.

If this technique is used well, it can be far stronger than Cause and Effect Parallel—provided one has sufficient cultivation,

Zhang Fusheng can even directly take away others’ cause and effect and graft it onto himself!

Or,

Find the [Cause] of someone’s birth and descent in the labyrinth of cause and effect, and pluck it away—

Thus, without the cause of descent, there naturally exists no further fruit of existence.

It can root out the enemy from its source.

Of course, this consumption is extremely terrifying, and backlash is likely, especially the stronger the existence, the harder its cause and effect is to shake.

"Mercy, mercy."

Du Mingsheng heard the True Man sigh softly, a faint light appearing in his palm,

That light was very weak, yet it exuded an extremely strange feeling, seemingly the embodiment of the most profound and mysterious!

The palm gently rested on top of Du Mingsheng’s head.

"Do not move."

The True Man sternly commanded, stars twinkling in his eyes,

In his view, Du Mingsheng was shrouded in layers upon layers of cause and effect, densely packed,

The thickest one connected to an unknown place, unable to be traced, gazed upon, divined, or peered into.

This was...

The causality between Du Mingsheng and High Heaven above.

Zhang Fusheng understood in his mind, continuing to probe and manipulate, his gaze falling on another exceedingly heavy causality.

This cause and effect, directly extended into the distance, seemingly carrying the flavor of life and death’s cycle.

It was this one.

Zhang Fusheng’s gaze suddenly sharpened, the causality of the Book of Life and Death!

He pushed [Hand Imbued with Cause and Effect] to the limit, forcing his hand into this heavy cause and effect, his expression subtly changed.

It felt like an ordinary person extending their hand into a deep sea thousands of meters below.

The terrifying pressure crushed onto his hand from all directions,

This body was merely a manifestation of a single consciousness, and the pain directly transmitted to the soul spirit, causing the entity miles away at the airport to groan!

"No...the cause and effect of the Book of Life and Death is too high, too heavy!"

Zhang Fusheng’s thoughts churned, and an instant decision was made.

Outside the waiting area, in the Great Wilderness.

The True Man impassively retracted his hand, calmly speaking:

"It has been verified, indeed it is the Book of Life and Death...set up the altar."

"Altar?"

Du Mingsheng spoke dazedly, somewhat unresponsive.

The True Man merely glanced at him and said peacefully:

"Please, Sin-Extinguishing Celestial Venerate, personally inspect."

Du Mingsheng gasped, seeing the True Man chanting, spiritual thoughts gusting forth like the sea, an entire giant peak abruptly lifted,

In an instant, the giant peak had been carved into a massive altar.

"This level of spiritual accumulation..."

Du Mingsheng’s expression changed. This was merely an incarnation of a True Man’s thought!

Zhang Fusheng was unaware of his inner thoughts, leveraging the High Heaven Order, his spiritual thoughts descended here without any depletion,

Also, he disassembled and reconstituted a beast hide drum, shredded forest wood, molding it into incense candle tables.

Thus, eighteen large drums made from beast bones and skins, an incense table, and an incense burner.

The altar was completed.

Chaotic fog rolled, eighteen figures shrouded in black robes emerged, seventeen Great Sect skeletons,

And one Innate Skeleton.

"Beat the drum."

The True Man spoke indifferently:

"Invite the Central Pole Sect Leader."
