Talisman Emperor

Chapter 392 The Light of Sacred Sacrifice

Silken Palace.

As they looked at Chen Xi tall figure in midair, Huangfu Jingtian and the other six old fellows had livid expressions, and their eyes almost sprayed flames as they were already enraged to the extreme.

Just moments ago, they’d already found out everything that occurred in the Martial Dao Domain. Their disciples Huangfu Chongming, Lin Moxuan, Xiao Linger... All of them had been annihilated by Chen Xi, and not a single one of them survived!

This news was simply like a thunderbolt that struck down from a clear sky, causing all of them to be exasperated, and their entire bodies couldn’t help but tremble. If it wasn’t for the other Earthly Immortal Realm expert’s persuasion, they’d probably have charged into the sky since long ago and burnt Chen Xi’s bones before scattering his ashes.

They couldn’t be blamed being so furious. Huangfu Chongming, Lin Moxuan, and the others were the top disciples in their respective sects. They were the most dazzling Golden Core Realm Core Disciples in the younger generation that were bound to grow into great figures that commanded power in the future.

However, at this moment, these proud geniuses that their sects put importance on fostering had died miserably at the hands of Chen Xi. So how could they not be furious?

Even their hearts were dripping with blood...

“Everyone, the order of the Allstar Meeting will allow no violation, nor can his Majesty’s will be violated. At this moment, if anyone dares act recklessly, then no matter who that person is, that person will be killed without exception!” An indifferent and murderous voice resounded out abruptly in the entire palace, and all the Earthly Immortal Realm experts noticed to their shock that the person who spoke was actually the Martial Marquis, Luo Hun!

Since the beginning of the Allstar Meeting, this 8th level Earthly Immortal Realm expert had never spoken a single word, yet he’d chosen to speak abruptly at this moment. Could it be that he’s referring to something?

The gazes of everyone intentionally and unintentionally looked towards Huangfu Jingtian and the others.

“Hmph!” Huangfu Jingtian grunted coldly, yet he forcefully endured the fury in his heart and didn’t dare say anything.

Even though he was the younger brother of the current Emperor Chu, he was still extremely afraid of Luo Hun. Because he knew deeply that Luo Hun was a person that wouldn’t show mercy even to his own relatives. Even if Luo Hun killed him, Emperor Chu wouldn’t do anything to Luo Hun.

Even Huangfu Jingtian didn’t dare go against Luo Hun, so the other five old fellows naturally didn’t dare as well, and they could only fiercely restrain their fury in their hearts and endure it patiently, causing them to be extremely aggrieved.

Bang! Bang!

Right at this moment, Young Master Zhou and Su Chan opened their eyes at the same time in the distant sky, and then two pillars of light gushed out from the Martial Dao Divine Thrones they sat on in unison.

The two pillars of light charged into the sky and bloomed with a boundless and dazzling glow, and then they condensed into two completely round halos. One was azure, the other gold, and they were like two suns that were extremely resplendent.

Within the azure halo was an enormous and aged finger that stood towering and silently there, and it was like the finger of a god that shook the heavens and the earth and revealed boundless slaughter and fierceness.

On the other hand, the golden halo had an extremely dazzling golden colored sword qi that was whistling about with a speed that was swift like a bolt of lightning, and it tore apart space and slashed apart the lights around it, causing space to fall into a horrifying sunken state.

Moreover, the Dao Insight aura that gushed out from these two halos gave others a perfect and flawless feeling, and they faintly revealed a trace of a divine, vast, and eternal feeling.

“Azurespirit Void Finger!”

“Whitegold Slaughteray Sword!”

“My god! These are two perfect Dao Grade martial techniques!”

Silken City instantly fell into a great uproar as everyone looked at the completely round halos that were like two proud suns the midair, and they gaped as their eyes revealed admiration, envy, shock...

After a perfect Dao Grade martial technique was cultivated successfully, not only would one be able to grasp a Grand Dao profundity, one’s cultivation in the Grand Dao Insight would attain the 12th level of the Perfection Realm.

Such a martial technique was absolutely a rare and valuable treasure!

If it was said that a top Dao Grade martial technique could only be seen in extremely ancient and enormous sects, and it could be taken to be treasured as a core inheritance of the sect, then a perfect Dao Grade martial technique was absolutely an ultimate treasure and a supreme inheritance in these ancient sects!

Bang! Bang!

Before everyone could recover from their shock, another two more figures on the divine thrones opened their eyes, and it was Yu Xuanchen and Ling Yu. They similarly released two completely round halos in midair.

This also meant that each of the two of them had similarly obtained a perfect Dao Grade martial technique.

It seemed as if they were intentionally torturing the minds of everyone present as practically at the exact same instant, a wave of fluctuation blasted out in the heavens and the earth once more. Huangfu Qingying, Zhen Liuqing, Huangfu Changtian, and Fan Yunlan had opened their eyes in unison.

As expected, the phenomena these four people revealed indicated that they had similarly obtained perfect Dao Grade martial techniques.

“Eight perfect Dao Grade martial techniques!” At this moment, everyone in Silken City was dumbstruck and almost forgot to breathe as they gazed at the eight round and flawless halos that emitted boundless divine lights in midair.

Even the eyes of all the Earthly Immortal Realm experts in Silken Palace couldn’t help but go red. Those were perfect Dao Grade martial techniques, and even they couldn’t help but be extremely moved.

But they knew that they couldn’t do anything, even if they were envious. The Dao Grade martial techniques obtained from the Martial Dao Sacrificial Altar was utterly unable to be passed down to others. Because it wasn’t inherited by recording on jade slips, and it was directly poured into the minds of the person that obtained it. Besides that, it contained an enormous amount of a variety of experiences and strange patterns, causing it to be utterly impossible to be copied and passed down to another.

Simply speaking, no matter how great or weak the might of these Dao Grade martial techniques obtained from the Martial Dao Sacrificial Altar were, they could only be cultivated by the person that obtained them, and it was utterly impossible to pass down to others.

At this moment, only three figures remained unmoving in midair, and they were respectively Qing Xiuyi, Zhao Qinghe, and Chen Xi.

After experiencing a wave of shock, in the end, the gazes of everyone descended onto these three people in unison.

“Qing Xiuyi is the Eldest Disciple of the Whitecrane Sect, a reincarnated Heavenly Immortal, and a proud genius of the heavens. In my opinion, she’ll surely be able to obtain a perfect Dao Grade martial technique with her natural talent, and it’s only a matter of time.”

“Zhao Qinghe isn’t inferior to her as well. The Merak Pavilion has fostered countless experts of the Imperial Family, and even the current Emperor Chu had once cultivated in Merak Pavilion for a period of time. As the leading figure in the younger generation of the Merak Pavilion, Zhao Qinghe is absolutely not inferior to Qing Xiuyi.”

“I’m more interested in Chen Xi. This fellow is absolutely an unparalleled and dazzling dark horse of the Allstar Meeting this time. Since the competition began, he’d overcome numerous difficulties and repeatedly obtained superb achievements. I wouldn’t believe that he’s inferior to Qing Xiuyi and Zhao Qinghe even if I’m bashed to death.”

The people present discussed animatedly. Some looked favorably upon Qing Xiuyi, some looked favorably upon Zhao Qinghe, and there were some that looked favorably upon Chen Xi as well, and it seemed to be extremely bustling.

Of course, everyone understood that it didn’t mean that the person who persisted the longest would obtain the most formidable Dao Grade martial technique. Exactly how formidable it was had to be decided from the phenomenon revealed at the instant they opened their eyes.

Bang!

Not long after, a pillar of light suddenly charged into the sky from where Zhao Qinghe sat, and it condensed in midair into an exceedingly dazzling and black colored halo that was completely round.

Unlike everyone else, this black colored halo emitted an icy cold and deathly still aura, and it seemed as if it could freeze everything in the world.

Moreover, the internal area of the halo had a single extremely ancient and mysterious character ‘?’[1] that floated there silently, and a fluctuation that caused one’s scalp to go numb slowly stretched out from it, causing the surrounding sky, airflow, light... Everything fell into a frozen state, and it was extremely strange and terrifying.

“Divine Ability — Frost Forbidden Arts!”

Everyone present gasped as they looked at the icy cold and deathly still black colored halo, and their gazes revealed astonishment.

Everyone had seen many body refiners obtain numerous Divine Ability cultivation techniques, and the Dao Insights contained within them weren’t the slightest bit inferior to the other Dao Grade martial techniques.

However, it was still the first time they saw a rare Divine Ability like the Frost Forbidden Arts, and merely from the aura it emitted, it was absolutely an exceedingly terrifying Divine Ability!

A trace of a smile suffused Zhao Qinghe’s cold expression. But this wisp of a smile instantly vanished without a trace when he saw Qing Xiuyi and Chen Xi were still motionless.

He didn’t believe that the two of them wouldn’t be able to obtain perfect Dao Grade martial techniques with their natural talents, and the reason they were motionless for so long was probably because they were searching for even more formidable martial techniques in the Martial Dao Sacrificial Altar.

Unknowingly, he’d slowly clenched his fists tightly before slowly relaxing them, and his gaze became firm as he said in his heart, Why should I be upset by this when the competition hasn’t come to the final step? I’ll defeat both of you when it comes to contend for the top 10 rankings in the Allstar Meeting!

Bang!

Right at this moment, Qing Xiuyi slowly opened her clear eyes. At the instant her eyes opened, a pillar of light that was dazzling to the point it couldn’t be looked at directly gushed out madly under the gazes of shock from everyone in the surroundings, and it surged out explosively to suffuse the horizon!

A halo that emitted infinite sacred brilliance slowly rose up.

Within the halo, everything sprouted, and everything bathed in a holy and pure milky white glow while devoted sounds of prayer and strands of the tune of the Grand Dao resounded out in the heavens and the earth. It was like the gods were voicing praise, and it was exceedingly sacred.

“Perfect Dao Grade martial technique — The Light of Sacred Sacrifice!”

Its impetus far surpassed everyone before her, and the events that unfolded before their eyes caused everyone in Silken City to be dumbstruck and stunned.

“As expected of Qing Xiuyi. This somewhat sacred martial technique is probably an extremely unusual and formidable perfect Dao Grade martial technique!”

“Magnificent! It’s probably only a proud genius of the heavens like Qing Xiuyi that’s capable of drawing out such a phenomenon.”

Within Silken Palace, all the Earthly Immortal Realm experts couldn’t help but exclaim successively with admiration as well. With their discerning gazes, they were naturally able to discern that the Dao Grade martial technique Qing Xiuyi obtained was absolutely a unique and terrifying martial technique, and the sacred energy that spread out from it was something that caused even them to feel shocked.

“Presently, only Chen Xi remains. I wonder what sort of Dao Grade martial technique he’s able to obtain?” The eyes of Ya Qing and the other girls looked towards Chen Xi who still remained motionless as they spoke in light voices.

“Heh, Chen Xi? In my opinion, even if he obtains a Dao Grade martial technique, it will probably be unable to compare with Qing Xiuyi and Zhao Qinghe. Before these two geniuses, he was destined to be cast into a shade since long ago.” Someone in the nearby crowd shook his head and laughed lightly as he spoke, and his voice carried dense indifference.

Ya Qing and the other girls frowned, yet they didn’t say anything. The inheritance obtained by Qing Xiuyi and Zhao Qinghe were terrifying indeed, and it was indeed too difficult for Chen Xi to catch up to them.

I only hope that Chen Xi would be able to obtain a perfect Dao Grade martial technique so as to avoid being too embarrassed when compared with those other two fellows...

All the girls prayed endlessly in their hearts.

1. It’s the character for forbidden.

2. It’s the character for forbidden.
