Chapter 965: 530 Chapter 965: 530 Zhou Shengqing’s Nascent Soul phantom shattered, and the Golden Core Cultivators who were currently attacking the Array of Ten Thousand Woods became even more vigorous.
This signified that their objective had been realized.
They might even push further, perhaps eradicating the Divine Wood Sect in the near future.
A Nascent-soul Loose Cultivator, who had been watching from the shadows, finally couldn’t sit still any longer. He cast off his disguise, revealing a thin and comely middle-aged man. He took out a Flying Sword, which transformed into a surge of blue waves, and joined Xuan Shu and the others in attacking the Array of Ten Thousand Woods!
With six Golden Core Cultivators making their move, the Array of Ten Thousand Woods could still hold on, but if this were to persist over time, there would eventually come a day when it could no longer withstand the assault.
The Cultivators within the Divine Wood Sect who witnessed this scene, some of them even grabbed all their belongings and ran towards the Teleportation Array, preparing to flee Giant Tree Ridge before the Sect’s Large Formation could be breached.
However, many more Cultivators, under the leadership of steadfast Sect members like Chu Zuoshu, continued to maintain the Large Formation’s operation and resisted the invaders.
“Brother Zhou!”
By this time, Chen Mobai and the other two had transformed into Escaping Light and rushed to the front of the Everlife Wood where Zhou Shengqing was in seclusion.
Zhou Shengqing struggled to lift his head to look at them, then raised his head and faintly smiled, propping his right hand on the branch of the Everlife Wood beneath him as if trying to stand up.
Mo Douguang immediately went over to help him; the two of them had supported each other since their days in the Five Elements Sect, and they were closer than real brothers.
“Do you remember what Master said before his Passing Away in Meditation, Junior Brother Mo?” Zhou Shengqing suddenly asked.
Mo Douguang: “Master said too much before his Passing Away in Meditation. I’m not sure which words you are referring to, Elder Brother.”
Zhou Shengqing: “The words that hurt us the most.”
Upon hearing this, Mo Douguang’s expression cleared, but then he frowned slightly, as if he did not wish to recall those words.
Zhou Shengqing: “Master said that among us, only Junior Brother had the potential for Nascent Soul Formation. If we were to forcefully attempt it, we would just waste resources. It would be better to provide our own spiritual power source to him to assist in his cultivation of the Primordial Dao Fruit. In doing so, even if he passed away, the Five Elements Sect would soon have a new Nascent Soul Cultivator to hold the fort, without being overrun and consumed by the surrounding major factions.”
At that time, Zhou Shengqing and the others, without having tried, would not feel that they had no chance of forming a Nascent Soul, and naturally rejected this arrangement in their hearts.
Mo Douguang: “Why do you bring up these words now, Elder Brother?”
Zhou Shengqing: “It’s just that after failing now, I understand Master a bit more…”
After a sigh, Zhou Shengqing lifted his head to look at the six Golden Core Cultivators who were still bombarding the light shield of the Array of Ten Thousand Woods with various colored Spiritual Power. The dullness in his eyes suddenly brightened with a sharp gleam.
“Before I die, I’ll sweep some of the Universe clean for the Sect.”
After speaking these words, Zhou Shengqing turned to Chen Mobai and beckoned. The latter promptly walked over with respect.
“I remember Junior Brother Chen, you have a Soul Summoning Lamp, could you give it to me?”
“Elder Brother, please!”
Chen Mobai nearly forgot he had this Ghost Dao magical instrument without Zhou Shengqing mentioning it.
“Elder Brother, are you planning to turn into a Ghost Cultivator?”
Fu Zongjue, who was beside them, asked with some concern upon seeing this. Ghost Cultivators and Corpse Cultivators were those who gave up their chance for reincarnation and forcibly remained in the world seeking to continue their cultivation.
Within the Tianhe Realm, Cultivators believed in reincarnation.
Thus, many Cultivators thought that after death, they might be reborn and return with better Spiritual Roots and aptitudes in the next life. Despite the sorrow, this also offered a form of solace, especially to those of the lower strata.
The few who could not bear to die and turned into Ghost Cultivators or Corpse Cultivators to forcibly linger were extremely rare.
However, if Zhou Shengqing truly decided to take this step, Fu Zongjue would not stop him.
“Not really, I need this magical instrument to protect my Heart and Mind when I use the Longevity Technique in reverse.”
The Longevity Technique in reverse!
What Technique was that?
Not only Chen Mobai but also Fu Zongjue and Mo Douguang did not know this; all three looked at each other in bewilderment after hearing it.
“This is what Master passed on to me before he died, which he said was left by True Lord Yuan. I never thought I would use it in my lifetime…”
As Zhou Shengqing spoke, he grabbed the Soul Summoning Lamp. He then flew up, taking one last look at Giant Tree Ridge.
Following that, his Dantian Qi Sea and the Sea of Knowledge at the Purple Mansion erupted with two streams of light, one green and one cyan. They converged and merged in the Soul Summoning Lamp in his palm, turning into a dark green Spiritual Light that heavily surged into the trunk of the Everlife Wood below.
After all the Spiritual Power and Divine Sense were drained out of his physical body, Zhou Shengqing’s body, suspended in mid-air, aged instantaneously to a state beyond recognition and plummeted toward the ground.
Mo Douguang immediately flew up to catch him.
At that moment, the Soul Summoning Lamp had already fallen onto the Everlife Wood branch where Zhou Shengqing was attempting “Nascent Soul Formation.”
The dark green Spiritual Light seeped into the branch like water, and as it spread and diluted across the entire Everlife Wood, it hardly caused any change to the bark or the leaves.
But Chen Mobai and the others knew that Zhou Shengqing’s entire spirit had merged into it!
Rumble!
In the sky, Xuan Shu and the other six Golden Core Cultivators were still maneuvering their Magic Artifacts and attacking the Array of Ten Thousand Woods.
They blocked all six cardinal positions, preventing anyone in the Divine Wood Sect from escaping. As long as they were willing to spend the time, the day would come when the Large Formation would be breached.
