Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Howl! Howl!
The yellow wind howled inside the Crystal Pagoda, and every time it hit the walls, the bright spiritual runes on the walls dimmed a bit more. The Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind was eating up the walls!
Buzz!
Suddenly, a bright light burst out from the Pagoda and Crystal Spiritual Energy swirled out. It looked like silk and twirled around the raging Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind.
Swish! Swish!
Spiritual light burst out when the two came together. The Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind struggled to break free, as though it had spiritual intelligence. It had sensed that the Crystal Spiritual Energy possessed a special power that made it impossible to disperse it, unlike other spiritual energy.
The Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind continued to break away from the Crystal Spiritual Energy. Apparently, it was difficult to trap it.
“This is a little tricky.” Light flashed across Mu Chen’s eyes, but he did not panic.
After all, the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind did not have a base, so it could not go on endlessly. However, Mu Chen possessed vast majestic spiritual energy, so the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind could not run away from him.
With this thought in mind, Mu Chen took his time to activate the Crystal Spiritual Energy, then manipulated it to twirl around the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind. Although most of it had been dispersed by the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind, some of the Crystal Spiritual Energy was stuck to the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind.
After some time, the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind started to slow its movements as a bright light appeared on it. Although the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind was special, it did not have much capability.
As it did not possess any spiritual intelligence, it could not run away from Mu Chen. As such, he continuously hung on to it.
Ultimately, a crystal ball had formed, which now hung in the Pagoda, It was here that the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind was now contained.
Every time the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind hit the crystal ball, it would bounce back. Its dispelling force did not have any effect whatsoever on the crystal ball!
“Has it been trapped?” Mu Chen heaved a sigh of relief when he sensed the movements in the Pagoda. He then formed a seal with one hand and the space beside him surged. A figure appeared. It was the Mu Chen in a white robe!
When the Mu Chen in a white robe appeared, he hit the Pagoda with his palm and infused his spiritual energy into it. With his help, the crystal ball shrunk speedily and the seal became more powerful. In a short while, the crystal ball shrunk to the size of a human head and the raging Spiritual Energy Dispelling gradually calmed down.
We have made it!
Mu Chen opened his eyes and looked elated. He had succeeded!
“Done?” Luo Li, Ling Xi, and Long Xiang all asked in unison when they saw Mu Chen’s joyful look.
Mu Chen smiled and grasped his fist. The crystal ball then appeared in his palm. It was covered by mysterious runes and a powerful seal.
Luo Li and the rest looked curiously at the crystal ball. They could see that the raging Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind was unable to break through the seal and had calmed down.
“Although it took some time, we have made it after all! The Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind will continue to disperse the power of the seal, so I have to make sure that the seal remains strong. Otherwise, the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind may break out. Fortunately, I will not be affected, as it will not take up too much of my energy,” Mu Chen said as he looked at the crystal ball fondly.
Ling Xi was impressed. She did not expect Mu Chen to successfully tame the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind that many of the top powers would shiver at even the mention of! Although Mu Chen had sealed only a small part of it, even a Complete Earthly Sovereign would be in a sorry state if Mu Chen released it during a fight.
Mu Chen could even lose his life in doing so if he wasn’t careful. After all, this was a deadly weapon!
“Lion King Gu will be a dead duck if he fights Little Lord again!” Long Xiang exclaimed.
“Lion King Gu is not worthy to have this Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind used on him.” Mu Chen smiled. Now that he had stepped into the Advance Ancestral Master’s realm, even if he did not use his spiritual energy, he would have no problem defeating Lion King Gu.
“You think too highly of yourself.” Ling Xi rebuked Mu Chen as she glanced at him.
Luo Li covered her mouth and laughed at Mu Chen. Although she knew that Mu Chen said this out of confidence, it was nice to have Sister Ling Xi bring him down a notch or two!
Mu Chen shrugged in embarrassment, but didn’t reply.
“Little Lord, why did you not collect more, since the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind is so powerful?” Long Xiang asked excitedly.
He had been attacked by the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind, so he knew its power all too well. Since Mu Chen was able to collect it, it would had made sense for him to gather more.
When Mu Chen heard this, he shook his head and said, “Given my strength, it would be a burden for me to have collected more. This is because my combat force would have been affected, which makes it not worthwhile for me to do so.”
He would have liked to have collected more Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind, but he did not have the capability to do so. If he had collected more, the Holy Pagoda would not be able to suppress it, and then they would get into trouble. When Long Xiang heard this logical explanation, he felt embarrassed and said nothing more.
“The Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind has weakened,” Luo Li suddenly said happily. The raging Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind outside the cave had gradually calmed down. When Mu Chen and the rest saw it, they heaved sighs of relief.
“Let’s get ready to move,” Mu Chen said. He then flipped over his palm and stored away the crystal ball in the Pagoda.
The four of them waited for a few minutes before the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind turned gentle. They then disappeared from the area.
“Let’s go!” Mu Chen shouted, while the four of them turned into shadows and shot out. The jasper butterfly set off before them and led the way.
Mu Chen and his team had become more careful after their encounter with the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind. Now, whenever they sensed something was amiss, they would immediately land and look for a place to take cover. Fortunately, after the encounter with the Spiritual Energy Dispelling Wind, their journey was extremely smooth.
Once in a while, they would meet one or two troops, but they did not talk to them. Instead, as they were afraid of one another, both sides always chose to leave quickly to avoid getting into a fight.
After traveling for nearly half a day, they noticed the jasper butterfly exuding a strong ray of light. They immediately perked up, as this meant that they were getting nearer to Wen Qingxuan!
Swoosh!
The four of them flew past a barren mountain and saw cracks on the mountains that were before them. All of the mountains were towering and looked as sharp as knife blades!
Buzz!
The jasper butterfly suddenly shook. It then turned into green light spots and disappeared into thin air.
“We have found them!” Luo Li was elated as she looked towards the northwest. When the jasper butterfly turned into light spots, they had distinctly moved toward the northwest direction, which meant that Wen Qingxuan and her team were there!
When the four of them flew past the mountains, they saw Wen Qingxuan and her team in a valley in the distance.
“Wait.” Just as Luo Li was about to head down to meet Wen Qingxuan, Mu Chen suddenly stopped her. Spiritual light gathered in his eyes as he stared at the valley.
He then said, “They seem to be in trouble…”
As Luo Li looked closer, she was shocked. She noticed a team that was standing in front of Wen Qingxuan’s team.
Moreover, there were obscure spiritual energy fluctuations behind Wen Qingxuan and her team. With the team in front of them and the obscure spiritual energy fluctuations behind them, Wen Qingxuan and her team seemed to be trapped in the middle!
