Chapter 1115 - Unfolding The Sky (Iii) (2/2)
Ning Que gazed at him while the Core Vajra of the Array turned burning hot in his hand.
The entire Chang'an was awaken. Immeasurable Qi of Heaven and Earth flowed along the streets, houses, hills, towers, lakes, temples and the invisible kennels. It created an extremely complicated array that no human being could comprehend, and formed an indistinct arch.
It was the G.o.d-Stunning Array. The beam of light fell onto the G.o.d-Stunning Array, flowed along the invisible arch and spread into the fields around Chang'an. It was charming and astonis.h.i.+ng.
Everyone knew that if only the light beam could break through the G.o.d-Stunning Array, or even a few drops of light could penetrate the array, the entire Chang'an would be ruined and burned.
The Core Vajra of the Array was becoming increasingly hot, which meant more and more Qi of Heaven and Earth was gathered in Chang'an. It seemed steaming in Ning Que's hand, which was probably his sweat evaporated.
The divine power falling from above was indeed horrifying. How long could the G.o.d-Stunning Array stand?
Ning Que was turning pale. Sangsang seemed paler. Especially when she saw the Divine Kingdom far away in the azure sky, the burning sun and the falling light beam, she seemed scared.
The sun was indeed burning and pouring immeasurable lights. The storm above the East Sea was evaporated. The reeds in the Great Swamp were dried. The cloud walls around the world reflected and refracted the light back to the world, and made the human world even more dazzling.
No one could stare directly at the sun. The Abbey Dean flew to the same height of the city wall, stared at her and said, ”Come on.”
There was no emotion shown on his face nor in his voice. However he seemed somewhat sympathetic.
Sangsang started s.h.i.+vering. Her worn-out green flowery dress started s.h.i.+vering together.
With every s.h.i.+ver, color was drained further from her eyes and a few golden particles were spilled from the green flowery dress.
The collection of the golden particles formed an indistinct human figure. Where did that golden figure come from? Or could that be her soul? Sangsang frowned in pain.
The golden figure drifted slowly from her body toward outside the city.
The G.o.d-Stunning Array could withstand the divine power from above. But it could not stop this.
The golden figure was drifting toward the Abbey Dean.
Right then he already opened the first Arcane Tome he took out, the Arcane Tome of the Sky.
Would that golden figure stripped from Sangsang become an image in the Arcane Tome of the Sky?
With the Seven Volumes of Arcane Tomes, the Abbey Dean unfolded the sky and received the divine power of integrated impersonal rules and wills. If he was about to become the new Haotian, he would need the divine character.
What was the divine character? The divine character was not the core of power, but the nature. In short, what made a G.o.d a G.o.d? Why should he be addressed as a G.o.d? It could be loosely explained as he was qualified.
In other words, a human being was called a human being because he had the human nature. A G.o.d was called a G.o.d because he had the divine nature. The divine character was the G.o.d's character. It was the existence beyond all impersonal wills.
Of course, by beyond it could either mean surpa.s.sing or degenerating.
Sangsang was awakened and acquired subjective consciousness. Then she acquired Haotian's divine character.
What the Abbey Dean was doing now was to strip the divine character from her. Who could ever stop him?
It was high noon and the sun became even more blazing. The light beam from above pressed the protecting arch above Chang'an further downward. The light streams poured onto the fields set the ground on fire.
Ning Que held Sangsang in his arms. While the golden figure was stripped out of her, Sangsang became weaker and paler.
Looking at the light streams in the sky, he recalled what happened in the Lanke Temple many years ago. In the last round of chess Sangsang and Master Qishan played, Sangsang was continuously hunted down in the world inside the chessboard.
Right now the Abbey Dean represented the rules. The rules were unbreakable therefore almighty. Even the G.o.d-Stunning Array could no longer attack but merely struggle. Because Chang'an was also a part of this world.
Being a part of the world, it had to obey the rules. Unless someone could acquire the State of No Rules as the Headmaster did. No Rules, not Distanceless.
The State of No Rules was probably the ultimate level in human cultivation. When someone acquired that state, he could act with and respect no rules. Ning Que could not. No one after the Headmaster could ever acquire No Rules again. Therefore he had to try breaking the world.
