Chapter 1941: Absolute chaos
Sister White Dragon asked, “Is this Fellow Daoist Shadow’s path?”
The Ruler of Shadows replied, “Of course not.”
Sister White Dragon said, “Oh, I was just asking casually.”
Song Shuhang squeezed the bracelet and said, “What if the ‘obsession’ that was left in this area isn’t activated?”
“As long as you use it, there will definitely be ‘obsession’ that is activated,” said the Ruler of Shadows. “But how strong that activated ‘obsession’ is depends on you.”
Song Shuhang nodded and looked at Senior White. “Senior White, how about you do another divination for me?”
Senior White’s clone turned around and an expression of confusion was visible on his face.
His deadpan face actually showed an expression!
Song Shuhang asked hurriedly, “Senior White, are you really okay?”
Senior White rubbed his temples and said, “Eating the ?Inner Demon Sashimi Slices? had a certain effect on me, a rather hallucinogenic effect. Earlier, my body was slightly empty due to the lack of energy, but after eating the ?Inner Demon Sashimi Slices?, I felt like floating. Initially, it only felt like I was tipsy, but now it feels like I’m completely drunk.”
“Senior White, let me help you.” True Monarch White Crane took the opportunity to step forward and support Senior White.
Rumble!
At that moment, there was thunderous rumbling that came from the distance.
The rumbling had come from the collision of powerful forces, and the earth shook as if there was an earthquake.
“The driver uncle and the great master from the Jingang Temple must have run into the Heavenly Emperor’s camp,” explained Sister White Dragon. “Those guys are really crazy.”
Due to the imminent change of the Wielder of the Heaven’s Will, those at the Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender Realm and the Immortal Realm had all gone into hiding.
Even if they really wanted to go out and do some activities, they would use various means that would allow them to stay safe when doing so.
They would typically have their body replaced, possess someone or something, or seal their strength.
On the other hand, the Heavenly Emperor’s camp and the driver uncle’s camp, who were in the sky above the scholarly faction, displayed their full strength without reservation.
Song Shuhang said, “Having a battle directly above the scholarly faction should be unfavorable for the driver uncle and the Jingang Temple’s great master.”
Sister White Dragon replied, “They are trying to shift the battlefield elsewhere. They should be moving to some other dimension soon.”
Previously, the Jingang Temple’s great master had mentioned that he excelled in shifting the battlefield to other places.
With his powerful physical strength, combined with the supernatural powers of the Jingang Temple, he should indeed have the ability to forcefully shift the battlefield elsewhere.
Song Shuhang asked, “Has the Heavenly Emperor been taken away?”
Sister White Dragon replied, “Mm-hm, the Heavenly Emperor’s aura has disappeared. She must have been their focus.”
Pavilion Master Chu’s hair emerged from the top of Song Shuhang’s head and said, “I can still sense the aura of an Immortal somewhere close. They’re likely to be someone that the Heavenly Emperor arranged as a backup.”
In the past, the scholarly faction and the Ancient Heavenly City both possessed the power to suppress the entire universe.
However, the way the two forces were established was very different.
The scholarly faction was single-handedly created by the Scholarly Sage. He took in some disciples and trained them until 13 of them became the 13 Tribulation Transcenders of the scholarly faction.
On the other hand, the Heavenly Emperor had gathered a group of like-minded companions at the Immortal level to establish the Heavenly City. Then, they recruited powerful people from all over the universe, making them join the city.
After losing the Sage, the scholarly faction suffered greatly in terms of the number of Immortals they could count on.
Pavilion Master Chu continued, “After both the Heavenly Emperor’s and driver uncle’s camp moved to another battlefield, the scholarly faction has lost their top experts. If that hidden Immortal makes a move now, they can easily take away all the Heavenly City Fragments in the scholarly faction, unless the scholarly faction has some tricks up its sleeve.”
During the several calamities that the scholarly faction had faced, most of its 13 Tribulation Transcenders were either killed or severely injured. Anyway, some of them still lived as felling a Tribulation Transcender was no easy task. If there were three or four of them who were still alive to this day, then with the talent and aptitude that they had, there was a high chance that they had already stepped onto their own path, becoming Immortals a long time ago.
If there were any of the 13 Tribulation Transcenders hidden among the disciples of the scholarly faction, then there was nothing to worry about when it came to the raiding conducted by the Heavenly City.
Song Shuhang thought for a while and said, “I’ll ask Senior Eternal Fire to send people over. We have to hurry up and transfer the Heavenly City Fragments to the world of the golden lotus. We should transport as much as we can at the fastest speed.”
As long as they entered the world of the golden lotus, it would not be so easy for the Heavenly Emperor to recover the fragments.
He quickly sent a message to Senior Eternal Fire as they needed all the time they could get.
“I have some bad news,” said Pavilion Master Chu slowly. “Chu Two has sent me a message. She was able to take care of the demonic bear and some of its companions by using her Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion, but the demonic bear has other companions who are heading over to the scholarly faction with their forces as we speak.”
Song Shuhang touched the Sage’s eye in his left eye socket and looked at the Ruler of Shadows. “Senior, how do I activate Shadow Sanctum?”
“Just pour your spiritual energy into it. In addition, if you have enough time, you can look for the place with the strongest obsession in the scholarly faction and activate Shadow Sanctum there. It’s best to perform some rituals that can enhance your luck before activating it,” replied the Ruler of Shadows.
Song Shuhang asked, “Would that allow me to display its effect to the fullest?”
The Ruler of Shadows replied, “Extra luck always helps, especially if you’re someone with not-so-good luck.”
Song Shuhang sighed, hoping that the Sage’s eye could enhance the power of the obsession. “It seems I’ll have to postpone my fight with the Heavenly Emperor.”
If Shadow Sanctum could play a significant role, then it would be best to save it for the incoming evil demons of the Netherworld.
[№ Tyrannical Song, Buzzz~ № Tyrannical Song, please reply when you receive this message.] All of a sudden, the electronic voice of Little Sun ‘You’re Busy T233’ sounded in Song Shuhang’s ears.
However, the signal seemed to be a little choppy as its voice was rather difficult to hear.
Song Shuhang replied, [I’m here.]
The Little Sun said, [№ Tyrannical Song, my master is asking you: Where are you right now?]
Song Shuhang replied, [I am in the scholarly faction.]
[Buzzzz, sure enough. Please be careful, the scholarly faction’s signal has some obstructions,] said the Little Sun said. [In addition, the fat ball is on its way to the main world, so prepare yourself mentally.]
Song Shuhang asked, [The fat ball is coming too? Doesn’t it still need some more time?]
Little Sun replied, [According to the data we gathered, the fat ball has received some critical information from its subordinates and changed its plans. The information involved the scholarly faction. Please be careful.]
Could it be because of the demonic bear?
Song Shuhang had a terrible headache as he learned of this new information.
The only thing that he could be thankful for at the moment was that the fat ball had Senior White Two constantly watching it.
Although its strength was the highest among Song Shuhang’s ‘list of people he least wanted to meet’, since Senior White Two did not allow the fat ball to bully the weak, it did not have much of a direct threat to Shuhang.
Song Shuhang said, “Pavilion Master Chu, please find a way to notify Chu Two to be more careful. The boss of the demonic bear is going to be making a move. The level of danger just skyrocketed.”
For some reason, he felt especially insecure today.
He turned his head down and looked at Shadow Sanctum, touching the Sage’s eye in his left eye socket. Suddenly, a bold thought appeared in his mind.
Could there be any obsession left by the Scholarly Sage in the scholarly faction? If there is, then can I make use of it?
