Chapter 550 - Arrival of the Insect Gods and Mother Gods (1/2)
Two days later, Zhong Yue has reclaimed all of the insect divine weapons within Great Wilderness. As the insect race was created by the demon race, the demon race has left a heavy mark in the insect totem patterns. Thus, Zhong Yue wasn't sure if the scale mirror could have reflected the totem patterns in the insect divine weapons.
He raised an insect divine weapon that looked like a pair of cicada wings in front of the scale and watched closely. Immediately, when the insect divine weapon appeared in front of the mirror, the totem patterns and internal structures of the insect divine weapon was reflected in it!
The insect god's mark inside of the insect divine weapon looked like a living cicada, it was dormant in the middle of the divine weapon.
The marks were the core of the divine weapons, they were commonly forged with the owner's blood and spirit.
After the Qi Practitioners have cultivated the Yuan Shen, they wouldn't have to use their soul to enter the weapons to control them anymore. This has greatly reduced the risk of dying when the weapons were destroyed and can also greatly boost the power of the weapons.
However, the soul weapons were also different from the divine weapons. Other than their overbearing advantage in strength and power, the divine weapons could be manipulated in such a way that the owner desires.
Especially the divine weapons that could have loom between reality and voidness, that could change sizes and even forms.
Among the divine weapons Zhong Yue has met with before, the Divine Wing Saber of the Kun Peng Celestial Race was a great example. It was a saber in a whole, but the feathers could be taken out individually as a sword. Even when the feathers were heavily damaged, they would still be returned to their peak and flawless state whenever it reattaches back to the Divine Wing Saber.
Not only that, the Divine Wing Saber doesn't have a definite form it should be in. The divine golds that it was forged from could change between light particles, liquid form and solid objects. The whole weapon was able to disintegrate into the most simplest form of totem patterns and be reformed into any shapes at all.
It was nearly impossible to wipe away the marks left within such a strong saint weapon, even if Zhong Yue have the scale mirror. This was because the internal structure and array formations inside of the Divine Wing Saber were changing every second, and the mark left in it would also change in places along. It was simply difficult to search, identify and break it down within seconds.
Thankfully, the insect divine weapons Zhong Yue has brought back weren't in that level yet, thus giving him the chance to wipe away the marks of the insect gods left in the divine weapons.
Furthermore, he was also able to perceive the flaws in the insect divine weapons, even the weaknesses of the totem patterns that were forged in the weapons.
"What a treasure this scale is!", Zhong Yue praised.
Then, he turned back at the insect divine weapon and inspected it meticulously. In stark contrast to the celestial race and demon race, the insect race has forged their divine weapons more crudely. This would be due to their lack of knowledge and resources when compared to the celestials and demons. Thus, causing their divine weapons to be less marvelous and primitive.
The divine third eye was opened and Zhong Yue looked at the divine weapon through the reflection. After some time, he has finally finished understanding the totem patterns inside of the cicada wings looking insect divine weapon.
"Cast!", Zhong Yue yelled lowly, his psyche and arcane energy have surged into the insect divine weapon. The psyche and arcane energy have slipped through the defenses of the totem patterns and array formation that protected the mark as Zhong Yue attempted to wipe away the insect god's mark!
His psyche and arcane energy have reached to the front of the insect god's mark inside of the divine weapon. All of a sudden, Zhong Yue's heart twitches in alertness.
Right after, the cicada wing looking mark has squirmed and turned into an eight-legged golden cicada celestial being. It was shining in golden rays and it inhaled deeply, sucking away Zhong Yue's psyche and arcane energy!
The golden cicada celestial being grew bigger and it chortled in criticizing, "You want to wipe me away? A mere Qi Practitioners like you? Do you know what am I? I am the mark of a god, I am a godly treasure, formed by the god's psyche, arcane energy and blood…"
Zhong Yue gave a cold hum. This time, he surged his True Spirit directly into the divine weapon and refuted frigidly, "God?"
His True Spirit Yuan Shen flew past the defenses and reached to the front of the insect god's mark, he replied coldly, "If you are really a god, I will leave as far away as possible. But you are just a mark left behind by the insect god, you are not qualified to rave wildly in front me."
The golden cicada celestial being smiled smugly and pounced on Zhong Yue's True Spirit Yuan Shen while shouting, "You dare to come and see me with your Yuan Shen? How generous you are! Let me devour you and grow stronger with you as my nutrients!"
Zhong Yue's mortal body sat unmovingly in front of the mirror. His three divine eyes have all opened and stared right at the mirror where all the weaknesses and flaws in the golden cicada celestial being were reflected on.
Whereas inside of the divine weapon, his True Spirit Yuan Shen was clashing with the golden cicada celestial being.
"[Golden Cicada First Form]!", the golden cicada celestial being gave a loud whistle, its body changed into a huge golden cicada with two huge claw-like front legs that slashed unceasingly on Zhong Yue's True Spirit.
Zhong Yue's Fuxi True Spirit was slithering around as his hands were making many hand seals that cast out the dragons like shears.
It was the [Dragon Shears]!
The seal-breaking art created by Feng Xiaozhong!
Ka-cha, ka-cha—
The two claw-like front legs of the golden cicada celestial being were sheared into pieces. The [Dragon Shears] was an art created to strike on the flaws and break the opponent; and thanks to the scale mirror, it wasn't hard for Zhong Yue to perceive the golden cicada celestial being's flaws and weaknesses!
"[Golden Cicada Second Form]!", the golden cicada celestial being shouted and its shell fell from from its body. Wings spanned out on its back and it flew up into mid-air, striking its mouth down like spears on Zhong Yue's True Spirit!
"Brat, I still have the third form, fourth form, and all the way up to nine different forms!", insect god's mark laughed nefariously as it said.
Zhong Yue gave a cold hum, he has already understood the structures of the insect god's mark. Suddenly, the [Celestial Demon Tai Chi Art] turned out and shrouded the golden cicada celestial being in it. Immediately, the demonic arcane energy within the area was sucked away and dispersed into the surrounding as the celestial arcane energy while the Yin and Yang Qi have formed into the [Dragon Shears] and struck on the golden cicada celestial being.
