Chapter 1248: The Seven Purity Soul-channeling Incantation (1/2)

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Spherical light shields spread out from the All Manifestations Star Banner behind Luo Wanxiang.

A ten thousand kilometer radius around Luo Wanxiang was then sealed off from the rest of the starry river by the glowing starlight shields.

However, Luo Wanxiang’s heaven-shaking, earth-moving voice penetrated the multiple light screens to echo in their ears. “If you’re here, I can’t put my all into battle, so I need you to get to the Realm of Fragmentary Star as soon as possible. I’ll find a way to deal with the Profound Purity Palace, the Extreme Coldness Palace, and Grand Monarch Ice Bones, and end the turmoil in the Domain of Frigid Depths for our sect.”

After that, the streak of starlight that had carried the starship, Zu Guangyao, and the others out of the shielded area returned like a river running into the sea.

Han Wanrong looked back and discovered that she could see nothing beyond the starlight shields. Brow knitted, she said, “Umm...

“So what Vice Sectmaster Luo said is that he doesn’t need our help to end the trouble here, right?”

Face cold, Xin Qing said, “He wasn’t so arrogant before.”

Zu Guangyao signaled for them to stop talking.

Some Void domain disciples on the starship didn’t hear the conversation between Zu Guangyao and the other elders. They chatted on in high spirits.

“I can’t believe the vice sectmaster has become so powerful and confident.”

“It seems that his cultivation base has risen above that of the grand elder. The result of his recent secluded cultivation is unbelievable.”

“No wonder he refused to come out of it prematurely. Now with him here, the turmoil in the Domain of Frigid Depths should be easily ended, right?”

“What should we do?” Xin Qing asked in a low voice.

Zu Guangyao pondered for quite a while before saying, “There’s nothing we can do in this clash between a Son of the Stars and a vice sectmaster. Perhaps our only choice is to return to the Realm of Fragmentary Star as quickly as possible, and inform Wei Lai and the others of what’s happening here.”

With a bitter expression, Xin Qing said, “Wei Lai? He’s neither the grand elder nor a vice sectmaster. What will he be able to do? With Vice Sectmaster Chu imprisoned by Grand Monarch Ice Bones, who else can stop him?”

Zu Guangyao sighed in frustration. “If only we were at the God domain.”

Han Wanrong cast her eyes down. “Yeah, because we haven’t entered the God domain, we don’t even qualify to join battles between peak powers.”

The conversation among the three of them carried on for a while before they eventually decided to return to the Realm of Fragmentary Star and have the board of elders decide what to do about this clash between Luo Wanxiang and Nie Tian.

...

The Immortal grade divine tool All Manifestations Star Banner continued to manifest its divine might.

Dazzling starlight shields sealed off that part of the starry river. Even soul awareness couldn’t penetrate it, which forced Zu Guangyao and the others to evacuate.

This simplified the situation.

Yin Xingtian, Mo Qianfan, and Yu Suying looked up at Luo Wanxiang with fearless expressions.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

At this moment, Kleist’s five evil spirits finished devouring the discarnate souls of the Qi warriors from the Domain of Frigid Depths and returned to him.

With them floating over him, he fixed his vicious cold eyes on Nie Tian.

Nie Tian immediately realized that the reason why Luo Wanxiang had spared him while sending Zu Guangyao and everyone else away with his star-shifting magic was because he had to leave him for Kleist.

He must be part of Luo Wanxiang’s deal with Kleist.

Nie Tian’s reflection appeared in the prismatic crystal between Kleist’s eyebrows as he said, “I’ll take that Spirit Pearl you have. Even I couldn’t give the five evil spirits fleshly bodies, but you did. I don’t care how you managed that. That Spirit Pearl and the five evil gods will be mine.

“With their help, I shall advance to the tenth grade and join the ranks of grand monarchs!”

As he spoke, a drop of sparkling translucent Blood Essence spun in each of Kleist’s splayed palms.

“Bloodline: Soul Imprisonment!”

The drops of Blood Essence shattered into numerous pieces that looked like tiny blood-colored crystals, as if they had split into the ancient magical symbols from the Phantasms’ evil canon.

Each and every one of them carried secret soul-imprisoning spells.

Such spells seemed to extend all the way here from the Nether River in the Nether Realm.

All of a sudden, evil spirits’ chants started to echo in Nie Tian’s ears.

A terrifying image of corpses and blood then entered Nie Tian’s sea of awareness.

Countless corpses were piled into mountains in a sea of blood. The cruelty, insanity, and bloodiness of the image rapidly multiplied with the help of the five evil spirits.
