Chapter 908: 908 God Killer! Who to kill?
Chapter 909: 909. Heavenly Emperor Cauldron
“Speaking of which, where did this God-level Saint Seat Weapon come from?” Xia Feng asked doubtfully, “Burning Heaven Holy Lord?”
“If it came from the Burning Heaven Holy Lord, then we wouldn’t need to prepare such a troublesome ritual.”
Shi Li shook her head: “This is actually a God Relic called the [Saint Star Time Plate], originating from the Three Saint Star Gods, and is currently controlled by the Gray Realm Saint Star Court.”
“To activate the Saint Star Time Plate and complete the Saint Path Ritual, a very large amount of resources and manpower are needed. It is for this reason that the Saint Star Court approached Burning Heaven for cooperation.”
Good heavens, it’s actually a relic of authority from the Three Saint Star Gods, Xia Feng’s mood grew even heavier.
“You just said that Time Soil is the core material for the Saint Path Ritual, and also the last material. Does that mean that as long as the Time Soil is stolen, the ritual can be stopped?”
“Holy Son Highness, the Time Soil is located in the center of a star, and it is guarded by a large number of Heaven-Bestowed Believers.”
The chief in the green dress shook her head helplessly, reminding him in a clear voice, “Putting aside the strength of these believers, just considering the terrifying energy at the center of the star, does Your Highness have the confidence to withstand it?”
The center of the star? Xia Feng raised an eyebrow. Isn’t that perfect? Do you think I learned the Blazing Sun Divine Domain for nothing? I like the sun the most~
“If Your Highness truly wishes to obtain the Time Soil, I have a suggestion.” Shi Li said softly.
“Hmm?”
“After Your Highness awakens the Goddess, I believe she will grant you whatever you wish, won’t she?”
The woman in the green dress smiled gently, “For the Goddess, perhaps she cannot seize the Time Soil in the Saint Path Ritual, but in this vast world, there will always be a way to obtain the Time Soil.”
“.”
Regarding Shi Li’s suggestion, Xia Feng said, “You speak very well, but I refuse.”
One of the reasons he desperately wanted the Time Soil was to deal with Gong Changyi after she awakened.
Gong Changyi was his elder sister after all. Apart from wanting to restrict his freedom, she wasn’t bad to him in other aspects. So, he had already decided to awaken Gong Changyi, but not now.
He needed to obtain the Time Soil, complete the result of the ‘Moon Time Divine Domain’, and then awaken Gong Changyi. Only then could he prevent Gong Changyi from sneakily imprisoning him after awakening.
As for why he would have a way to deal with Gong Changyi after the Moon Time Divine Domain result, it was because after the Moon Time result, a new ability would evolve, called [Time Cover Superposition State].
Tea Nai Xue had briefly mentioned this ability in the knowledge system inherited from Miao Shi. Its effect was incredibly heaven-defying, enough to prevent Gong Changyi’s sneak attack.
Therefore, before the result, unless the time was near, he absolutely could not awaken Gong Changyi.
As Xia Feng pondered, he quickly made a decision: “How about this, Chief Shi, sneak me into the star. I’ll handle the rest myself. Once I get the Time Soil, I’ll awaken your Goddess.”
“Holy Son Highness, you will die…”
“Stop dawdling. I don’t know what to say about you. Gong Changyi activated the Eternal Day Time Prison. Even if I die, I can resurrect through the Time Prison, can’t I?”
Shi Li, however, added: “Your Highness, I must remind you that if you die, you only have a chance to resurrect through the Time Prison, with a maximum resurrection probability of 50%.”
Huh? It’s not a hundred percent…
This is so trash. Xia Feng didn’t expect this. He felt helpless. Gong Changyi was truly insane to gamble on such a small probability.
However, it wasn’t a big deal. He didn’t expect to resurrect through the Time Prison anyway. At worst, he could just madly consume the Calamity Demon Heart to repair himself.
The only problem was, he could resurrect from the Nightmare River, but Miss Mu couldn’t.
Seeing that Shi Li still wanted to say something, Xia Feng waved his hand: “Alright, enough nonsense, take me into the star.”
“.” The chief in the green dress frowned. She really didn’t understand what the Holy Son wanted with the Time Soil, but there was no other way. Now, the Holy Son’s command was the law.
“You all continue to guard this place.” Shi Li got up, glanced at Xia Feng, and walked towards the door, “Your Highness, please follow me.”
Xia Feng followed the woman in the green dress through one space gate after another.
He discovered that Burning Heaven Island was indeed only the size of an island. It wasn’t large in area, but the flowers, trees, lakes, and cliffs on the island… all hid a large number of space gates.
Each space gate was guarded by corresponding guards, but with Shi Li, the great traitor, leading the way, Xia Feng moved unimpeded.
Inside the space gates were small worlds. Some were as large as a county town, while others were cramped little rooms of ten cubic meters.
Before long, the two walked out of a space gate and entered a starry sky.
A black-gold giant cauldron directly reflected in Xia Feng’s black eyes.
In the distance, a divine and giant bronze cauldron stood in the center of the star sea, its three legs holding down the surging nebula below. The cauldron body seemed to be cast from Xuan Yao refined from fallen stars.
The surface of the cauldron belly was embossed with the star map of the Nine Heavens Palace, and thirty-six thousand star sands flowed automatically along their celestial trajectories.
Every three seconds, the cauldron body would hum and rotate once. The star sands simultaneously dragged light tails, sending ripples of divinity radiating outwards into the surrounding star sea.
As the ripple reached Xia Feng and was about to pass through him, Shi Li waved her hand and dispersed it.
“This is the Heavenly Emperor Cauldron. It can survey belief and retrieve identities. It is the treasure of Burning Heaven.”
“Heavenly Emperor Cauldron?” Xia Feng’s gaze was filled with doubt as he continued to look into the distance.
Around the divine cauldron, there were twenty-four tall pillars. Each pillar had a cloaked figure wearing a blood-red robe. Twelve wore golden-eyed masks, and twelve wore blood-eyed masks.
Further down in the star sea below these twenty-four figures, one hundred thousand Burning Heaven believers wearing masks sat in a Bagua formation, densely packed.
“The Saint Path Ritual has three key elements: sufficient Time Soil, a large amount of blood sacrifice, and a vast, firm, and pure belief.”
Shi Li explained calmly, “Only Burning Heaven can quickly gather such a god-slaying amount of belief. This is also why the Saint Star Court came to Burning Heaven for cooperation.”
“.You cultists actually have firm and pure belief?” Xia Feng twitched the corner of his mouth, “Believe in what? The inevitable destruction of the empire? Or do you believe in your mysterious Burning Heaven Holy Lord?”
Shi Li’s flame-gold eyes glanced at him: “You’re half right. But the Year Lord is merely the founder and the spokesperson for a supreme existence. We do not believe in him.”
“Supreme existence?”
“I believe Your Highness has heard of it. The Burning Heaven scriptures record that above all gods, and outside the primordial Heavenly Dao, there exists a [Supreme Heavenly Emperor].”
Shi Li’s flame-gold eyes narrowed slightly, “The [Supreme Heavenly Emperor] only awakens during great calamities of heaven and earth when living beings are suffering. When He awakens and returns, He will establish new universal rules and re-establish the order of the gods!”
“We Burning Heaven believe in this supreme existence. When Your Highness returns to Burning Heaven, you will also need to believe in this existence.”
Xia Feng: “.”
I believe your ghost!
As expected, all you cultists are better off dead, so you don’t spread these absurd legends that only idiots would believe to harm the world.
