977 Separate The Sky From The Earth By A Leaf (1/2)
An invitation, a special invitation.
It was so special not because the words written on it, but the invitation card itself.
The invitation in Mister Luda's hand right now was like a leaf picked from the tree just now with morning dew on it. Part of the leaf color turned darker presenting a simple line of words.
Mister Luda saw a new world when he stared at the leaf. Bang! He saw blue sky dotted with clouds, and a grand sun right in the center. Green grass grew on the field with different kinds of trees. The lake was as clean as a mirror, reflecting the image of the beautiful scenery.
The sun drew near the horizon and the moon rising from the east. Predators crept forward in the grass with their eyes fixed on their prey. Everything was so real in every corner of it.
Suddenly the world collapsed and disappeared in flowing lights. Mister Luda stared at the invitation card burning in his hand and did not overreact.
”The smallest may hold the largest. Separate the sky from the earth by a leaf…” Mister Luda said in a small voice.
An invitation, a world!
Mister Luda was familiar with this art as he was very close to a Divine Fairy now. Only a Divine Fairy could play such art.
There were still months away from the date of the winter solstice. Golden Turtle Island sent the invitation so early as if they had no intention to hide their location and they were not afraid of being investigated.
Inside Xi Jian Pavilion, Su Wuming put the sword on his knees with his right hand gripped halfway. The invitation burned quietly with its world destroyed without a sound.
Golden Turtle Island of Donghai appeared so suddenly and returned to its own place in the mist.
…
At the Golden Crow Sect, Tianyi Island,
Meng Qi prepared materials according to the list. He took out something from the Night Emperor's treasure and some were for exchanging with the Golden Crow Sect.
And now Meng Qi was in the Fiery Hall of the Golden Crow Sect surrounded by multiple layers of Restrictive Spells. A dark golden tripod carved with a flying Grand Sun golden crow was placed in front of him. Even by just watching it, one could feel the horror of burning Dharmakaya as if it had unimaginable power.
With the help of the concubines, Meng Qi knew it as a Golden Crow Pilgrim Tripod. The Golden Crow Sect inherited Divine Fairy Heavenly Weapons for a long time but their main duty was to make weapons, not for defense or attack, plus they were basically all good businessmen and were quite friendly towards each party. That's why they did not disappear. Dharmakayas did not want to get into a fight for a Golden Crow Pilgrim Tripod or their experience of making Heavenly Weapons due to many practical reasons such as materials were hard to find and one sect could get really big by having it. Therefore all the Dharmakayas tried to stop such things from happening.
Fan Lishuang and the other eight elders from the Golden Crow Sect sat in a different spot facing different golden crows. He said seriously, ”Night Emperor, please put your three broken swords deep inside the tripod. The making of the weapon would be very easy as soon as these three pieces could integrate into one. And the closer you put them near to the grand sun fire core, the easier the three can melt into one. Otherwise we can only rely on time to melt them down slowly and it was very possible that we would fail in it.”
Meng Qi nodded and carried broken pieces of the Xuanming Sword, Fiery Sword of Rosefinch, and Eastern Yimu Sword, and wrapped them in Divine Sense and Taoist power from Mana. After Fan Lishuang broke the seal of the tripod, Meng Qi put all pieces slowly into the tripod.
Bang!
Everything turned dark and Meng Qi felt he was now in a different world. Red fire was burning fiercely around him under the boundless night sky.
Deep in the sky Meng Qi saw a grand sun in dark golden color. The closer he got, the hotter he felt. The fire's color also changed in a scary way.
”That should be the core of grand sun fire…” Meng Qi carried the pieces and flew directly there. As he was getting closer, he saw it clearly.
A huge three legged bird monster covered with dark golden feathers. Each feather was carved with peculiar prints, spraying out fire. Nothing existed around it but only fire in green, purple, and gold. Inside each flame, he saw a grand sun and a star, seeming to provide gravity and power for different universes and galaxies.
This was the Grand Sun Golden Crow corpse at legend level!
It should have a name at least.
Meng Qi saw many things of legend level and he recognized the golden crow instantly to belong to one of them.
Even the corpse of the golden crow could only be made to a tripod of Divine Fairy level…
Meng Qi pulled out his incarnation and turned it to a streak of blade light. He broke through multiple layers of flame like a falling star and approached the golden crow at a very fast speed.
As his incarnation got closer, Taoist power began to burn and he almost lost his senses but there was still quite a distance between the incarnation and the core fire.
The incarnation then turned to dimness and swallowed the fire.
