Spirit Vessel

Chapter 992: Master

The final truth of the Grand Change Art stated that there must be living beings first before they create their own world.

Laws were used to control all things. The cosmo required laws in order to function.

Reasons were given as the soul of all living beings.

Time was the flow of life. Only with its flow would there be life.

Feiyun was far from reaching these truths. He was only at the elementary level at best, only able to control puppets - the most basic of this art.

He activated his power and tried to control the statues found in this maze. They seemed to be returning to life and started moving.

One swung its sword; another moved a chess piece on the board, one drank tea, another sang…

All manners of life could be seen so the place became quite chaotic.

The paragons that have entered became alarmed.

“Your Highness, what is happening? It seems as if the master of this palace has returned from the dead.” A gray-haired woman asked.

“To be able to create so many puppets from Heaven Restoration Stones… this master must have been someone amazing.” Princess Feiyuan mused.

“Boom!” Suddenly, the spear of a statue near her was lit ablaze. It thrust the spear towards her and unleashed an inferno of attack.

The princess glided like the wind and spun around the statue, easily dodging the attack.

A total of seven statues suddenly attacked her in unison. They didn’t hold back at all.

“Mythical Sword Domain!” She summoned an ancient sword and pinned it on the ground.

It grew and became more than ten meters tall, stopping all the attacks.

Energies waves emanated from her body and pushed the seven statues away. She then leaped out o the containment.

“We need to leave right now. They’re nearly indestructible and have too much firepower.” A first-level paragon felt pressured after being surrounded.

“Send out the spatial jades, let others know that we need to leave this palace for now.” The princess ordered.

The paragon took out a jade piece and pushed it against the ground. A white beam shot up to the sky.

A bit later, more beams shot up in the other areas and all the demons began retreating.

The stone forest regained its tranquility after they were gone.

“Phew.” Feiyun let out a long sigh. Just controlling these statues for a short period expended half of his energy.

‘They won’t let Xuanyuan Yiyi heal completely, they’ll come again within six hours. We need to be ready, the statues won’t stop them a second time.’ He thought.

Yiyi was still meditating, looking like a jade sculpture. A sacred glow surrounded her.

After an hour, Feiyun regained his peak state and planned the next steps.

There were a total of eleven demon paragons at the first level. They were at the lord level and have been hiding in the human dynasties until a crucial moment.

Since two were crippled by the saintess, only nine combatants were left.

“Your Highness, what should we do now?” An ant demon asked.

They have gathered here because of her. She had promised them a piece of the pie so they naturally listened to her right now.

Of course, this might not be the case once they took down Xuanyuan Yiyi and the ruler was up for grab.

“Looks like I have to use the power of the sacred soul.” The princess answered.

She spewed out a white pearl with a blinding radiance. It had the immensity of a star.

The other experts’ expression changed after hearing this. This was an artifact made from the remnant energy of a dead saint. Its power was immensely destructive.

“Wait, we have a paragon that fell in there.” Three old men descended from black clouds above.

The princess frowned, this was not good news.

“The saintess is grievously wounded. She couldn’t have killed a paragon. As for that half-demon? Haha, impossible.” A demon said. contemporary romance

She had a serious expression and said: “If it’s not the saintess and the half-demon, then who is it? Could there really be some ominous entities here?”

“Creak.” The gate to the mansion suddenly opened.

A youth in white walked forward while holding a spear gallantly. He stood proudly and revealed his handsome face to everyone. His eyes had a crimson glow, looking rather charismatic and demonic.

“Boom!” He pinned the spear on the ground, breaking one of the jade tiles.

“A senior is residing in this palace, your bandits better scram fast. Otherwise…” He declared before tossing out a bloody robe.

This belonged to the dead paragon from the Yin World, brimming with death and evil energy.

Feiyun wanted to bluff in order to buy more time for Xuanyuan Yiyi.

“Brat, you think you can scare us?” The scaled pig demon wanted to personally kill Feiyun after letting him get away earlier. A claw from its back flew towards Feiyun.

The latter didn’t bother moving.

“Whoosh!” A blinding ray came out of nowhere and crossed through the sky.

“The aura of a saint!” The pig demon became frightened after sensing this aura. He quickly pulled his claw back and prostrated on the ground while trembling: “I, I didn’t know you were staying here, Senior. Please forgive my transgression and spare my dog life.”

“Aren’t you a pig?” An ancient voice came from the palace, sounding profound and mysterious.

“You’re right, please spare my pig life…” The demon trembled.

The turtle was hiding behind the gate. It coughed and said: “30,000 years have passed in the blink of an eye as I searched for the myriad dao. I am old now, cough, and do not wish to fight needlessly. Young ones, leave and do not disturb me again.”

“Of course, of course!” The pig paragon was strong but that saint ray was too intimidating.

This being had lived for 30,000 years already? The other paragons hesitated, not wanting to risk it in case this speaker was an actual saint.

Of course, a few of them were smart enough to guess that he was not a real saint. Nonetheless, that ray earlier was real, meaning that the person had access to these strands of energy.

Those in possession of this energy were big shots with prestigious status. It was best not to offend them.

Feiyun smiled and said: “I can’t believe how brave all of you are right now, still daring to stand here. Do you not know how to write the word death?”

He wanted to go all the way with the bluff and make them give up in order to avoid needless complications later on.

Alas, he gradually felt that there was something off; it was as if there was someone gazing at him. He felt a chill coursing down his spine.

The expression of the paragons was rather strange as well. They gazed at him while retreating backward.

‘Shit! Don’t tell me, there are really ominous creatures here…’ He didn’t dare to turn around and used his divine intent instead.

He sensed a bone-biting chill one meter behind him. There was someone shrouded in yin energy. To be exact, it was a corpse with a bowl-size hole on his chest.

‘Fuck!’ He felt his body becoming frozen. No wonder why the paragons were backing off.

The yin energy on this corpse was unreal, far more terrifying than those paragons’ auras. This was beyond the first level of Heaven’s Emergence.

“Didn’t you say there was a senior here? I believe that this senior has died many years ago.” The princess smiled, revealing her white teeth.

The corpse issued a strange noise. Its mouth spewed out miasma that was uncomfortably close to Feiyun’s head.
