Chapter 694: To Intimidate

Xue Ying stood on the rooftop of the palace. His robe was flowing with the wind; he seemed very carefree at this moment.

Seeing the current posture of this ‘World Deity Flying Snow’ and how confident he was, the five Paragons who each had their concerns, felt their hearts jolting. They became worried.

“World Deity Flying Snow, have you gotten the Black Gourd?” Paragon Emperor Xu asked. Palace Master Fei Huo, Golden Fire Palace Master, and the others were also looking at Xue Ying.

“Right, I’ve gotten it. You are all too late.” Xue Ying nodded with a smile.

“Xiu.”

The Spectre Prefecture Master who wore a black robe and revealed only a pair of violet eyes teleported and arrived at where the entrance of the Ancient Shrine was. Following that, he headed in towards where that stone door was opened, and could easily see the highest place where the many steps of stairs led to… had no Black Gourd any longer!

“Hu.”

Spectre Prefecture Master returned and left the Ancient Shrine with a single teleport. He came back to where the other four were.

The four looked at him. Spectre Prefecture Master softly nodded, though his gaze remained on Xue Ying: “The Black Gourd has indeed been taken by World Deity Flying Snow.”

“What.”

“He, he got it?”

“This…”

Their hearts trembled; they were incredibly tense.

Ever since the emergence of this world and the descent of the Ancient Shrine, the one who got the Black Gourd would conquer the world. He could even leave and enter the broader cosmos. This legend had always been a story! Throughout the epochs, there were some who could lift the stone door, yet none had succeeded in taking the Black Gourd away!

Now, it seemed that history was about to be made today. A mysterious World Deity, ‘Flying Snow’ had taken away the Black Gourd.

‘What kind of power does the Black Gourd have? Is the current World Deity Flying Snow much stronger?’ Many thoughts flickered across the five of them.

After all, the legend spoke of how one could conquer the entire world if he got the Black Gourd!

How would it be possible without power?

They felt that this ‘Black Gourd’ must contain a heaven-shattering strength. Now that Guest Elder Flying Snow possessed it, he might be able to conquer the entire world.

“World Deity Flying Snow.” The black-haired male Golden Fire Palace Master said, “I’ve heard that the one who got the Black Gourd can leave this world and enter the vaster cosmos. I wonder if it is true?”

“It is.” Xue Ying nodded. He did not hide the fact.

It was true.

Those who failed the trials would be forced out of this world and enter the cosmos where the Deity world and Abyss were.

If he succeeded, he could simply leave this world.

“The external cosmos?” Golden Fire Palace Master and Fei Huo Palace Master held their breaths. They had always been living in this world and desired to see the bigger world outside.

“Can you bring me there? If you could, I’ll not stop you.” The Golden Fire Palace Master said.

“Can you bring us to the outer cosmos?” Spectre Prefecture Master asked too.

Other Paragons wanted to ask that question too.

“Impossible.” Xue Ying shook his head.

The reason why he replied so succinctly was that the treasure spirit had transmitted to him, “You can barely control the Black Gourd after succeeding in cultivating the technique within these five years. You can borrow on the strength of the Black Gourd to leave this world. Of course, if you failed, you will be expelled out. No matter what, you are forbidden to bring any lives out even if it is a beast.”

“Naturally, if you succeeded in becoming the new Voidwalker, we can break the rules.”

…

“I could not bring the rest of you out. Borrowing on the strength of this Black Gourd, I can only leave myself.” Xue Ying answered.

The five Paragons turned taciturn.

Paragon Sword Emperor could not help but blurt out, “World Deity Flying Snow, it seems the power of that black Gourd is tremendous? Can it conquer our entire world?”

“Right, it is tremendous and conquering the world is easily done. Its strength far surpasses your imagination.” Xue Ying’s voice was filled with rue. That’s right, the fireball kept within could match the Sun Star. If its power was released–even if it was just a slight bit from the star–it could kill Rulers.

But it seemed that using it was a challenge. He could only obtain a preliminary control after comprehending that cultivation technique.

“Surpasses our imagination?” The five Paragons felt their hearts itching. How powerful was it?
