Chapter 142: Lotus Flower Blooming Within The Eyes
The dark clouds acc.u.mulated in the night sky made the atmosphere suffocatingly tense as if the looming clouds over the earth were about to destroy an entire city.
The two swords hovered on both sides of Chao Xiaojian. He had both hands on his back, his white robe billowed in the air, looking as unruly as ever.
It was as if the whole world was silent to pay homage to Chao Xiaojian for fighting off the transcendental cultivator’s attack in one move.
All of the disciples on the wide plains of Mount Tongtian were dumbfounded.
Chao Xiaojian obliterated the two earth dragons with one wave of his sword.
He destroyed the ancestor’s attack from the transcendental realm!
They were like celestial beings fighting in a battle!
The old man smiled casually on the mountaintop.
“Fighting the transcendental realm with a ninth-cla.s.s cultivation. You’re ambitious and brave. I’ll give you that.”
He did not recognize Chao Xiaojian since a lot had changed in two centuries.
He thought that Chao Xiaojian must be someone new that was born within these two centuries while he was away.
However, unless the Emperor and the female blade lord came in person, it would not be an issue for the old man.
Only a cultivator of the same realm can threaten or kill those in the transcendental realm!
Only a transcendental being could acquire the truth and witness the eminence of this world.
The old man looked at Chao Xiaojian calmly.
His divine sense seeped out of him like a stream of flowing water, causing the s.p.a.ce around him to ripple.
The old man raised his hand and formed a rune instantly.
He tightened his grip.
Suddenly, a thunder dragon could be faintly discerned behind the thick dark clouds in the night sky.
The old man lifted his palm and his energy started expanding. A ruthless lightning bolt struck the peak of Main Path Guild and exploded into a brilliant white light in a thunderous roar.
When the light faded, the old man was holding a thunderbolt spear covered in electrifying sparks.
The old man stared calmly at Chao Xiaojian, who was hovering above the night sky.
Then, he arched his back and hurled the thunderbolt spear forward.
…
In the Imperial City, Changan.
The streets of Changan were drenched from a sudden downpour in the winter.
The rain droplets that hit the moat of Changan City formed ripples as if it was boiling.
Inside the city, the wheels of the carriage rolled across the puddles on the street, splattering water along its path.
A convoy of carriages carrying all the imperial officials headed towards the palace like hundreds of streams merging into the sea.
The carriages stopped before the Vermilion Bird Gate and the curtains of the carriage were lifted up.
Imperial officials dressed neatly in uniform received the oil-paper umbrellas from the coachmen and opened them to shelter themselves from the rain with its s.h.i.+ny surface.
The opened oil-paper umbrellas looked like flowering quinces blooming in the rain.
In the long hallway before the Taiji Palace, the old eunuch stood before the vermilion carved wooden door that was sealed shut.
Old Man Gao was unfazed by the a.s.sembling officials.
“Old Man Gao, we need to see the Emperor!”
“The third prince went against your orders and escaped the Cold Palace. He joined Asi Luoshan’s army and they departed from the Western Demon Portal and are currently heading towards the land of the Tang Dynasty! This is treachery!”
“With the third prince’s alliance, Asi Luoshan’s army had already conquered several cities and they’re marching straight towards Changan!”
“Asi Luoshan boasted that he will restore balance to the Tang Dynasty. He also said that the Emperor has changed. He had caused quite a stir among the common folk.”
“We hope that His Majesty will make a public announcement to calm the public.”
…
The imperial officials spoke one after another.
Their voices filled the front of the Taiji Palace and even drowned out the pouring rain from the outside!
Old Man Gao remained silent. The horsetail whisk hung vertically from his arms as he raised his head and looked at the rainy sky.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed.
The veil of rain seemed to be ripped apart by a terrifying force. The rain droplets exploded into a blurry mist.
Then, the deep chime of an ancient bell sounded from the deep end of the palace, which triggered a cascade of chimes from the ancient temples outside Changan City.
The blabbering officials fell silent.
They turned their heads very slowly as if they were being strangled by someone and stared at the sky above the palace with widened eyes.
“Bong…”
The sound of an ancient bell echoed for eight to nine breaths before it gradually faded into the earth.
The Code had been dormant since the resource battle started to rise above the palace.
The imperial officials shuddered in fear.
“Something triggered the Code. Did someone violate the Code?” One of them asked.
“The ringing of the Code lasted for eight to nine breaths. Either a royal member has been hurt, or… a transcendental force has emerged without permission from the Code!”
The officials could feel a chill run down their spines.
Asi Luoshan’s army was nearing the borders. Now another cultivator from the transcendental realm had appeared and triggered the code.
All these were signs of chaos. There seemed to be an impending war ahead of the Tang Dynasty after two centuries of peace.
Old Man Gao let out a long sigh, his eyes deepened.
As expected, an imperial censor kneeled before the Taiji Palace and kowtowed.
“The Code has risen. It had been two centuries since a transcendental being emerged. Your majesty, we beg you to bring along the Code and capture the criminal!”
The other imperial censors and officials followed suit and begged.
The rumor that Asi Luoshan instigated spread like wildfire and finally, it was able to shake the people’s faith.
Even the imperial officials started to waver.
They needed the Emperor to do something to soothe their worries.
However, as they were kneeling down, an eunuch announced, “Empress Pei has arrived! The fifth princess has arrived!”
His sharp voice pierced through the rain and the officials’ plea.
Everyone halted their movements.
They turned around and saw a lady dressed in a magnificent robe with a phoenix crown on her head walked in.
Beside her were a frail-looking fifth princess who was coughing and the second prince with a foolish smile on his face.
The lady stood there in an aloof manner as she stared at the hovering Code.
After a long pause, she said, “The Emperor does not need to use the Code to capture someone as unworthy as him.”
The officials fell silent. Only the surrounding noises of the breeze and rain could be heard.
…
Even the night sky could not chase away the tension in the atmosphere caused by the looming clouds.
The heavy clouds were so oppressive that it was difficult to breathe.
Chao Xiaojian tilted his head in the air and checked on Fang Lang, who was hovering in the air from afar with the Reincarnating Lotus Sword in his hand.
The energy in Fang Lang was growing steadily like a ferocious lion gradually opening its eyes from its slumber.
The sea of clouds was roaring above the sky.
Zhao Zhens.h.i.+’s strength was greatly enhanced with the support from the divine sense of their first sect leader. He had received enlightenment on several hindrances that he faced previously while controlling the Mountain s.h.i.+eld Rune.
Huang Zhihe who had the upper hand in the battle with Zhao Zhens.h.i.+ had reached a stalemate!
Chao Xiaojian tore his gaze from Fang Lang and frowned.
The old man hurled the thunderbolt spear from the peak of Mount Tongtian into the air, tearing through the night sky, sending aftershocks that ripped through s.p.a.ce.
It was charging towards Chao Xiaojian at an incredible speed like a meteor.
Chao Xiaojian slowly raised his hand and knocked gently.
Then, the two swords merged into one and landed in his hand. He tossed it at the direction of the incoming thunderbolt spear.
The moment the sword and spear collided, ma.s.sive energy erupted from the blast.
Chao Xiaojian’s body was pushed back almost 30 meters, leaving a white trail before him!
“Young man, you need to respect the energy,” the old man said from the mountain peak.
With a clench of his fist, the dispersed energy from the thunderbolt directed their aim towards Chao Xiaojian like 10,000 arrows being launched at once as if they were going to pierce through every inch of his body.
Chao Xiaojian channeled a surge of blade energy in his chest and gently knocked with his curved fingers. The green steel sword vibrated slightly.
Then, the sword started circling his body at an extreme speed. Every time it flickered, it was able to block a strike of the thunderbolt.
Chao Xiaojian grabbed onto the sword, leaving only a corner of his sleeve billowing in the sky.
His body had disappeared.
He was sprinting through s.p.a.ce with the sword in hand.
He lifted the sword and aimed it at the old man on top of the mountain from a distance.
“Old man, do you dare to take on one of my attacks?” Chao Xiaojian shouted as he sprinted.
The old man placed a hand on his back and smiled, “If it’s not because of the Code’s suppression, the transcendent energy at full capacity would definitely kill you.”
Chao Xiaojian was unfazed when he heard him.
He waved his sword and his body started to flicker continuously!
After flickering several times, he appeared right in front of the old man.
On the other side, Zhao Zhens.h.i.+, who was in the middle of the battle with Huang Zhihe appeared within the sea of clouds. He scoffed when he heard Chao Xiaojian ignorantly threatened the ancestor.
Then, he glanced at the five elders of the Main Path Guild who were idly spectating the battle. He narrowed his eyes and yelled, “What are you guys waiting for? Capture Fang Lang and retrieve the Reincarnating Lotus Sword!”
At that instance, the silence was interrupted by Huang Zhihe.
He bellowed, “Shameless fool!”
Chao Xiaojian, within a 30-meter radius from Zhao Taifeng faltered when he heard Zhao Zhens.h.i.+’s words.
He was about to turn around to a.s.sist Fang Lang, but the old man chuckled.
He took a step and left the Main Path Mausoleum for the first time.
A spiritual sense as brilliant as starlight emerged from within the Main Path Mausoleum like a roaring sea or a pounding waterfall.
Boom!
The old man’s robe billowed in the wind as he raised his arms. Endless spiritual sense energy started pouring out and froze the dimensions of s.p.a.ce and time!
Chao Xiaojian felt as though his body had been stuck in a mud swamp. He was trapped, unable to move and the s.p.a.ce sword intent had been suppressed.
An enormous figure of a taoist priest made out of spiritual sense stood above the peak of the Main Path Guild and trapped Chao Xiaojian within his palms.
Chao Xiaojian did not stand a chance to escape and a.s.sist Fang Lang!
…
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
The five elders of the Main Path Guild finally snapped out of a daze.
Runes appeared around them and darted towards Fang Lang, who hovered in the air.
Each elder controlled a phase of the rune and transformed the Five Phase Rune into a five-sided cage that was coming straight towards Fang Lang!
They blocked all corners around Fang Lang.
On the fields of Mount Tongtian, An Fan, Li Yuanzhen and the other disciples looked conflicted.
They knew that it was over for Fang Lang when they saw the five elders cornered him.
After all, Fang Lang’s cultivation was only a third-cla.s.s sword world realm. It would be impossible to defeat five elders with the cultivation of a seventh-cla.s.s cursed-heaven realm!
A genius might be able to fight a battle beyond their realm, but a third-cla.s.s versus a seventh-cla.s.s was just too ambitious.
Even Xuanyuan Taihua would not be able to pull it off.
The runes cast by the five elders were closing into Fang Lang.
They were snickering.
If Chao Xiaojian had not interfered, they would have captured and imprisoned Fang Lang earlier on.
At that instance, Chao Xiaojian was still trapped by the ancestor. Fang Lang’s fate was sealed.
“Surrender, kid,” one of the elders said.
The emergence of the Main Path Guild’s transcendental ancestor meant that the Main Path Guild would be experiencing a revolutionary change.
They might be able to reclaim their glory back in the day when the eight dynasties were in chaos, break free from the shackles of the Imperial Court. They might even overrule the Imperial Court!
They knew about Fang Lang’s ident.i.ty—Xuanyuan Taihua’s disciple, young fellow master of the Sword Guild, the grand champion of the Imperial Examination!
They would probably treat him better if the ancestor was not around. However, Fang Lang’s achievements were nothing in comparison to their ancestor.
The Main Path Guild would certainly rise up once again with the support of a transcendental cultivator!
The revolving runes of gold, wood, water, fire and earth formed the Five Phase Rune, engraved with mysterious and profound patterns.
It sealed off all possible routes, making it impossible for Fang Lang to escape.
Boom!
The five elders stretched out their palms and the five runes kept shrinking around Fang Lang, extracting the energy from the world within as though it was about to confine him in an inch of s.p.a.ce.
However, a gentle breeze blew towards them and Fang Lang who was trapped within the rune, slowly opened his eyes.
From the deep end of his eyes, there was a lotus blooming in his pupil.
Lotus Flower Blooming Within The Eyes!
There was a surge of blade energy.
The vibrating Reincarnating Lotus Sword in Fang Lang’s hand quietened down.
The moment Fang Lang reopened his eyes, Zhao Taifeng’s expression faltered.
Fang Lang curved his fingers and gently tapped on the Reincarnating Lotus Sword. The sword that had absorbed the Main Path Guild’s thousand years of reserve launched out like a shooting star.
The five elders of the Main Path Guild shuddered.
They looked down and noticed blade energy rising beneath their feet and bloomed into a lotus!
Five lotus flower blade energy hovered below the five elders’ feet.
Then, Fang Lang, with lotus in his eyes, curled all five of his slender fingers.
The screams of the five elders echoed through the earth as the blade energy beneath them engulfed them.
They were killed instantly!
The world fell silent.
Five blood-red blade energy lotuses were blooming in the quiet night sky like confetti.
Fang Lang smiled at Zhao Taifeng who was standing above the mountain peak with the Reincarnating Lotus Sword in hand.
“Old man, had your fun bullying a ninth-cla.s.s cultivator from the transcendental realm?”
