Chapter 1221: Chapter 1085: Good and Evil, the Source of Strength Chapter 1221: Chapter 1085: Good and Evil, the Source of Strength The entirety of Wanxiang City was already devoid of ordinary residents, including neutral forces that had long since left the city, leaving it incredibly empty.
Where the three great palaces and the Soul Covenant once stood had by now become a landscape of ruins, with streets and buildings desolate and devastated.
At night, the sky became exceptionally clear, the stars visibly bright, sharply contrasting with the disheveled cityscape below.
After midnight descended, the war clearly split into two parts, the west side of the city centered around the inner city fortress, spanning ten kilometers mostly caught in the strife between two huge human armies.
Both armies were terrifyingly large in scale; they could fight for three days and nights nonstop unless numerous creatures of Emperor or even Dominator level intervened.
The two armies fought relentlessly to the death, turning the ground into rivers of blood and fields of corpses, while relentless skills still filled this repeatedly ravaged city.
Another battleground spread across the eastern side of the Wanxiang Altar, covering several more kilometers of the city area, a scene even denser and bloodier—it was the battle between the nightmare demons and the flower demons.
Of course, higher Emperor levels gradually shifted the battles towards the middle and outer parts of the city, even outside the city, but the main forces of the two empires were still concentrated to the east of the Wanxiang Altar.
The numerical strength of the two empires was even more massive, and if their kings didn’t reach a conclusive victory, the battle might not end even after five days!
Such a scale of war had set a vast city ablaze, perhaps the only time in thousands of years of history.
And as for who would win and who would lose, it still remained an unknown.
…
The city air was muddied with gunpowder, pollutants flying all around.
The only clean place on the battlefield was where the Soul Hall’s Holy Temple was located.
The area around the Holy Temple had become completely ruined, with only the newly repaired Holy Altar undamaged.
At this moment, as Liu Binglan completed her spell, the entire altar began radiating a beautiful luster.
The brilliance was contained and spread gradually upward, forming a dazzling curtain of light, with seven distinctly visible stellar light lines inside it; the space between each light ray was a hazy curtain of light.
The stellar light lines shot towards the heavens, piercing through the dark and cold Second Layer of Heaven, reaching towards the distant and unknown starry sky, connecting precisely with seven bright stars.
Countless spells, symbols, and patterns whirl around the curtain, rapidly enriching the light curtain enclosed by the seven main axial star lines, according to Liu Binglan, when all this energy reached the position of those seven stars, it would be the time for the Seven Diagram Holy King to descend.
Chu Mu tilted his head upward, watching this mysterious and splendid curtain of light stretching towards the top of the night sky and vanishing into the distance—Chu Mu couldn’t see its end but could continually watch it thinning.
The seven responding stars were always just a short distance from the curtain of light, but the thread-like curtain could never reach them, still continuously stretching towards them.
Chu Mu had no way of estimating how distant that place was: the light curtain ascended to such a velocity that it was thousands to tens of thousands of times faster than Chu Mu’s top speed—such a speed should have reached any place in a blink of an eye, yet the seven stars still remained a distant sight from the light curtain.
Finally, the light curtain ceased to extend, and Chu Mu could feel that the seven stars in the unknown cosmos had become noticeably brighter!
Chu Mu really wanted to know by what principle this Seven Diagram summoning array allowed distant Soul Pets to appear here, so he kept his gaze fixed on the seven stars.
Suddenly, the seven stars began to refract, and the refracted light curtain was now falling towards the ground!
“The refracted light will land on the gates of the seven Holy Temples in World City,” explained Master Li timely to Chu Mu.
Indeed, Chu Mu saw the light curtain being refracted by the stars from Wanxiang City towards the west, seemingly right onto the land of World City!
Chu Mu was stunned by the scene before him. The space summoning that transcended two Earth Realms was guided by the stars in the Star River, refracting the starlight which established an awe-inspiring bridge of star tracks!
The power of the Different Race was the power of space, and the spatial force that Chu Mu controlled was entirely based on the dimension space beneath normal space, with most skills based on the stability of destroying and establishing two spaces.
Yet Chu Mu found that Liu Binglan’s control over the power of space seemed to be established between two dimensions on top of normal space, namely the Second and Third Layer of Heaven, which were exactly opposite to the space he could manipulate!
“Hehe, Young Master, it seems you have some insights,” chuckled Master Li suddenly.
“Could it be that the structure of this world is like this?” Chu Mu said, somewhat lost in thought.
“Based on normal space as the axis, with a double qian above and a double kun below, the power of the different race lies in being able to destroy and repair the rules of these five planes. Young Master’s abnormal ability controls the spatial rules of the normal space and the lower double kun planes, and Her Highness the Venerate’s Soul Pet Star River controls the rules of the upper double qian planes. This is also why Her Highness chose to battle in the Second Layer of Heaven when she couldn’t defeat Xiong Shou leading the wind.” Fox Elder said.
Chu Mu hadn’t deeply considered these issues until now, after witnessing the scene of summoning across planes, he suddenly came to a realization.
“And all the special spaces, such as the three great palaces’ holy domains, Immortal City, Seal Tower, including the Qiankun Ice Gate of Snow City, are all established based on these four planes,” Fox Elder said.
“So, you mean the world actually has five layers?” Chu Mu said, somewhat surprised.
Fox Elder shook his head, “The reason why the normal space is called the world of life is that only this plane can support the existence of soul pets, while the other four worlds only allow abnormal species to roam freely. Of course, other race creatures can gradually stay in these other four worlds after reaching the Dominator Level, and those special spaces like the holy domains, Immortal City, and Seal Towers are not as vast as the world of life, they can only be considered derivative worlds, but one thing is certain—the resources in these derivative worlds are extremely rich!”
Chu Mu was a bit dizzy from hearing this; the structure of the world was clearly not as simple as he had imagined.
“Young Master, you’ll gradually understand these,” Fox Elder said, touching his beard and squinting at the gradual completion of the summoning of the Seven Diagram Holy King.
Suddenly, Fox Elder’s eyebrows knit together, seemingly noticing something amiss.
His expression suddenly turned grave, and he glanced at the holy altar.
“Young Master, we have trouble,” Fox Elder said calmly.
“What’s wrong?” Knowing Fox Elder would not sound false alarms at crucial times, Chu Mu immediately grew more serious.
“Look, isn’t there a blurry trail of light sliding down to the top of the Wanxiang Altar on the stellar reflection lines?” Fox Elder pointed at the dark Wanxiang Altar in the distance.
Chu Mu looked with his soul sense and indeed saw the blurry trail of light that Fox Elder mentioned landing on the Wanxiang Altar.
“What… what’s going on?” Chu Mu asked with a puzzled face.
“All characteristics such as honesty, bravery, compassion, kindness, including emotions such as joy, tolerance, gentleness, these belong to the good, exactly opposite to the evil force’s characteristics of cunning, cowardice, cruelty, wickedness, including emotions such as sadness, cold-bloodedness, jealousy, and irritability…”
“Isn’t the Young Master able to transform his inner resentment into his own power with the skill Resentment Condensation? The source of the Young Master’s resentment comes from the very characteristics and emotions I’ve listed, such as anger, hatred, jealousy.”
“And what’s frightening about the Good and Evil Queen is that she can absorb all these negative characteristics and emotions from all creatures, and transform them into her power, or energy for growth and metamorphosis…”
“So, if I’m not mistaken, she is now frantically drawing on the evil forces from the Seal Tower and converting them into her power; hence the plot she set up in World City, awakening the negative emotions of the Half-demon Bai Yu to their peak, probably had a similar motive. It’s no wonder she could reach the Dominator Level despite the slow growth and transformation rates of the Good and Evil Queen.”
Fox Elder’s words made Chu Mu instantly understand the complicated intentions of this woman.
“This means she built her goddess facade, rescuing and blessing the people of Wanxiang City, just to absorb the force of goodness,” Chu Mu said.
“Yes, but these forces are actually limited, after all, the people she helps vary widely in strength. What I meant when I said we would have trouble is because this woman has now absorbed a very huge force of goodness,” Fox Elder glanced at the nearly complete summoning of the Seven Diagram Holy King.
Fox Elder didn’t directly say it, but following the old man’s gaze, Chu Mu instantly understood.
Another chill seeped into Chu Mu’s body, causing his soul to tremble slightly.
The force of goodness, the summoning of the Seven Diagram Holy King, undeniably represents mercy and redemption for the soon-to-be-destroyed Three Great Palaces, which indeed is a huge force of goodness.
And since the Soul Hall has always portrayed itself as an embodiment of righteousness, it is because the Seven Diagram Sacred Beast also represents the seven types of positive characteristics—courage and valor of Linyin Beast, unyielding strength of Xuan Zhen Zhe, gentle and submissive nature of the Wind-binding Spirit, compassionate and sympathetic nature of the Dawn Palm Princess, kind-hearted and loving nature of the Misty Immortal Bird, redemptive and tolerant nature of the Di Sheng Flower, and the upright and sacred nature of the Wanzhao Beast!
This means that once the Seven Diagram Sacred Beast is summoned, the invisible force of goodness formed will become the power of the Good and Evil Queen!!
Realizing this, Chu Mu couldn’t help but gasp, understanding the cunning schemes of this woman were truly unforeseeable!!!
