Divine God Against The Heavens Chapter 672 Chapter 672: Old Man's Guilt

672 Chapter 672: Old Man's Guilt

After the pearl covering the mountain range shattered, the white light caused by the countless swords slowly started dissipating, revealing a completely different Mountain Range.

To be more accurate, it could no longer be called a Mountain Range as there was no mountain left. Let alone a mountain, seeing a small boulder has become impossible. Everywhere was the mixture of white and brown powder. Other than that, there was nothing in the former Mountain Range.

Not a single tree, not a demonic beast, and not even a single leaf could be seen. The entire land was filled with a mixture of white and brown powder. It was as if the mountain range was slashed millions of times by countless swords, causing the entire mountain range to turn into nothing but powder.

The terrifying sword law could still be sensed here. Even if a Dao Manifestation Realm martial artists were to come, they’ll be seriously injured by the leftover sword force and Sword Law.

It was simply too terrifying. Who could believe that the former Mountain Range has now transformed into nothing but a plane land filled with a mixture of white and brown powder? Even the demonic beasts were slashed so many times that they were turned into powder. Not a single drop of blood or the sign of red could be found in the mixture of white and brown powder as if their quant.i.ty was not enough to be able to overcome the ‘weight’ of white and brown powder.

In the future, this place turned into a forbidden area and was controlled by the Mysterious Immortal Sacred Land. It becomes a forbidden area, at the same time, it also becomes the holy land of cultivating the sword ways.

But these things are the talks of the future._{pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴ(0)ᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ}

Right now, the barrier covering the Second Princess slowly opened and disappeared. She opened her eyes, raised her head, put down her hands, and stood up while looking at the surroundings.

Sighing, she muttered, “I didn’t expect to cause such a disaster here. But it can’t be blamed on me. It was all that old man’s fault. That blue book was too mysterious, I couldn’t have let that old man take away that book!”

While she was fighting the mysterious old man, she was also observing him closely. She noticed that the old man was protecting a mountain peak from being damaged in any way.

This is the Upper Realm and they were all from the Divine Realm. It is unlikely for a resident of the old man to be on that mountain peak. That old man also came here only after being chased by the Second Princess.

What does it mean?

It meant that there could be only one possibility. The old man was hiding something in that mountain peak, and that thing must be extremely precious, for the old man was doing his best to protect it. _{pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ}

It was at that moment that the Second Princess guessed that the old man must have kept the Blue Book somewhere inside that mountain peak. She believed this because, along the way, the old man was running from them while holding the Blue Book in his hand. It could only mean that the Blue Book couldn’t be stored in the spatial ring.

However, when the old man was fighting her and her subordinates. the Blue Book was nowhere to be seen.

The old man was extremely powerful. He was a Seven Marked Worldly Divine Lord while she was only a Six Marked Worldly Divine Lord, and there was simply no need to mention her subordinates.

At that time, she knew neither she nor any of her subordinates could do anything to the old man. This old man is an extremely famous thief in her empire and has already stolen many valuable treasures. The Asura’s Ancient Formation was an example.

As the name suggests, Asura’s Ancient Formation was a formation carved on a formation plate. That formation plate was the black piece of metal that the old man took out earlier and used it to save his life from the terrifying power of the Law Skill.

by relying on his stealing ability, he has already become a thorn in the eyes of the people of Star Spirit Empire. She knew she couldn’t let the old man take away the Blue Book, otherwise, the old man will become more fearless in the future. _{ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕ(ꪫ)ꪣꫀ ꪶ}

She didn’t know what that Blue Book was or the contents inside, but she knew she couldn’t let that Blue Book fall into the hand of this old man. Thus, using the Law Skill, she chose to destroy everything.

Her intention was simple.

Since she couldn’t get the Blue Book, she also couldn’t let the old man have it.

pAɴᴅᴀ ɴ[0)ᴠᴇʟ A few seconds later, the black sphere isolating the old man also slowly started to open before turning into the black piece of metal once again. The old man kept the Asura’s Ancient Formation in his spatial ring and looked at the surroundings, opening his mouth in awe, witnessing the terrifying destructive might of a Law Skill.

In his life, he has stolen many treasures. Every treasure is the best of the best, just like the Asura’s Ancient Formation and the Blue Book. However, he has never been able to get his hands on a Law Skill. His obsession of stealing a Law Skill become stronger and stronger as time pa.s.sed and now, after witnessing the strength of a Law Skill, stealing the Law Skill has already become his lifelong goal. He has to achieve this goal no matter what.

No one knew, at this time, a legend was born. A great thief who even terrified Rulers in the future was born here.

“What a pity!”

The old man looked in the direction of the cave where he left Su Xue Er and sighed. Although he thought previously that Su Xue Er might have left, he was not confident. And even if she had already left, she couldn’t escape from the terrifying power of the Law Skill. He thought she must have also become one with these mixtures of white and brown powder.

The Blue Book was also gone just like that. There was no longer any possibility left for him to obtain the contents of the Blue Book!

This made him sigh in regret. He looked at the Second Princess and said with a pained expression, “Little girl, you really are ruthless. Look at what you have done. Not only you have destroyed this entire Mountain Range, but you have also destroyed that Blue Book!”

The Second Princess didn’t say anything. She was also feeling heartache for losing a treasure like the Blue Book. Although this book was found in a world of the Upper Realm, there were many Divine Level Formations protecting it. This alone was enough to prove that this book was left behind by a powerful expert of the Ancient Era and it must be at least a High Grade Divine Rank Treasure. Losing such a book also pained her.

Upon listening to what the old man said, the chubby girl smiled bitterly and said, “If you have not stolen the Blue Book or at least you have returned it to me, it wouldn’t have been destroyed like this.”

The old man also lowered his head helplessly. Then he looked at the Second Princess with a gloomy expression, saying, “I would have given it back to you. All I wanted was to stall for time to let a person copy the content of Blue Book inside a jade slip. After that, I would have returned the Blue Book to you safely. But you destroyed everything. Even that girl… sigh, what an unlucky child. She died just like that!”

The Chubby Girl frowned, looked at the old man, and realized something. She exclaimed, “You actually forced a girl of Upper Realm to copy the contents of the Blue Book? If you wouldn’t have involved her in this, she wouldn’t have died. It is not me who took her life, it is you who killed her. Don’t blame me for this. Everything that happened here is your fault.”

The old man didn’t say anything. He looked in the direction where he left Su Xue Er and sighed. Although he was a thief and like to steal treasures, he never killed any innocent in his life. But now, an innocent person died because of him. He really felt guilty in his heart.

If he knew the result of bringing Su Xue Er here would have been like this, he would have never brought her here and told her to copy the contents of the Blue Book.

But… What can he do now?

He couldn’t revert the time back, right?

He sighed again and muttered, “Little girl, this Second Princess of Star Spirit Empire is not wrong. You were indeed killed by me. I didn’t know who you are nor do I know where you come from. I can’t pay the compensation, so forgive me if you could!”

Though the old man is a thief, he is not a bad person. His heart is very good and pure.
