Chapter 186 - The Divine Refining Clock (2/2)

“But, since you have already captured those two immortals, why don’t you ask them directly?”

“Although I’ve captured them, the Divine Refining Clock can only be activated every seven days. So I can’t release them for questioning until then.” He opened his fist and a little silver clock suddenly appeared on his palm. A reddish light could be seen flickering in the center of the clock. If he waited another seven days, his daughter would be long gone.

“I can solve this problem easily.” Wu Hong suggested, “Our avian tribe has a Heart Revelation array, which can reveal the memories of a person when he is at his most vulnerable. If we put the clock inside this array, we might be able to find the location of your little princess.”

“That’s great!” Bai Ti hurriedly passed the clock over to him. “I’ll have to trouble you to take care of this matter then.”

Wu Hong took the clock from him. He could sense the aura of two immortals inside the clock. While conjuring a seal, he asked, “By the way, who are the immortals inside? They must be quite skilled to have been able to take you on.”

“I… I don’t know them. Never seen them before.”

“Oh…”

“But I heard them saying they’re from… Invincible Sect.”

Clang!

Wu Hong immediately flung the little clock away.

Invincible… Invincible… Invincible Sect!

You must be kidding me!

“Wu Hong?” Taken aback, Bai Ti hurriedly caught the clock in his hands. “What did you …” He was about to ask Wu Hong what was wrong when he saw the latter’s face suddenly turn pale. His two hands were trembling violently.

No, no, no… He must have heard wrong.

“Tell… Tell… Tell me again. Which sect are they from?”

“Invincible Sect from the Feng Cang continent!”

Boom! Wu Hong felt as if a thunderclap had hit him.

Pui…

In a daze, he coughed out a mouthful of blood.

“Emperor Bai!” Wu Hong grabbed the latter’s hand and beseeched him, “Listen to me. Release these people immediately. Quickly!” Otherwise it would be too late.

“Why?” asked Bai Ti, baffled. “But this clock will be activated only after seven days…”

“Then break it!” Wu Hong was on the verge of tears. “Use immortal weapons, Deviant Thunder, Primordial Fire, I don’t care what, just release these people!”

“But these are divine weapons…”

“Divine weapons! I don’t care if they are divine… yes, divine weapons can break open the clock. Wait here, I have them.. I’ll give them to you!” Wu Hong whipped out an ancient zither and thrust it at him.

“Unexpected Zither…”

“Take it and break open the clock! Forget it, I’ll do it!” Wu Hong raised the zither and swung it down on the clock.

“Hold on… Emperor Wu!” You can’t use the zither like this!

Just the zither was about to land on the clock, a blinding white beam of light shot out from it. The palm-size clock on Bai Ti’s palm began to grow bigger and bigger. Bai Ti had no choice but to let go of the clock. Within moments, the clock had grown as high as a man.

This was followed by a loud sound and a series of cracks slowly appeared on the surface of the clock. The cracks spread out in all directions until it covered the whole surface of the clock.

“What … What’s happening!” Bai Ti exclaimed in alarm. “My Divine Refining…”

Before he could finish his sentence, there was a loud boom and the silver clock shattered to pieces. A great stream of immortal qi shot straight towards them…
