Chapter 3: The Ancient Celestials
At the mereinstantly knew that she harbored no good intents Therefore they immediately attacked her!
Throughout the years, they had collaborated on nuainst many much ’s Dragon Claws and Old Matriarch Wen’s Eternal Explosive Hands were powerful enough to cripple any opponent And today, they were using these two secret techniques at the same time!
Theher slender fingers as she moved quietly between her two opponents There was a red blinding flash as Old Matriarch Wen and Old Yang cried out aloud at the sa on the ground in agony!
Old Yang was tre in disbelief, “What manner of sorcery is this?! What skill is this?”
He could not believe that anyone could strike so fast that even with his years of fighting experiences that he could not see how she had executed her strokes!
Thereplied softly and unhurriedly, “This is er This is but a s to hurt my sisters and my beloved”
She s in a flustered manner
Lingfeng had purged outin a mediation pose with her eyes closed Her battle with the venoh and there was beads cold sweat on her forehead!
Xiao Youxue was also looking flustered and her cold demeanor had vanished She appeared coy and called out, “Sister Xingyue, you are finally here! It is a good thing that you are here or ill meet with mishaps!”
The yue said, “I have warned you all not to take any actions on your own You have no idea howopponents there are in the martial fraternity What if you have met a Dark Celestial?”
Xiao Youxue pointed at the corpse of the Venomous Evil and said, “We have alreadyhad already dealt with him”
Shen Xingyue looked quietly at Yi Ping and Lingfeng before sighing to Youxue, “You call their situation so that you are in control of? What about the injuries on your arm?”
Youxue protested, “Injuries are coht or else next time e have met with a better exponent, on’t be at a coained!”
Shen Xingyue continued to sigh softly to herself but it was clearly audible to everyone, “But when you have lost even once, all your experiences will coht”
But before Youxue could protest further, Old Matriarch Wen was already cursing aloud “You are so despicable, resorting to such underhand race on the martial honor of the martial fraternity! I will surely shame your name to the entire fraternity!”
Shen Xingyue said gently, “Up to you I don’t care…”
But before she could finish, Old Matriarch Wen and Old Yang had stood up again to attack her once again This time all their strokes were even ard their defenses; even if they were to die, theyher down as well!
Shen Xingyue brandished her Blue Heavens Divine Sword and there were a brilliant bluish white flash as cold beah I collapsed onto the ground, never to get up again!
Shen Xingyue said softly, “This is your just desserts”
Yi Ping went up to her and was treyue, why are you here? Do you know if Lele is alright?”
He pointed at the dead body of Sikong Zhai and his eyes atery, “This old man here, he has claimed to have killed a maiden from the Celestial Palace Other than Lele, who else could she be?”
Yunzi was solemn as she said, “It shouldn’t be Lele There are many others like Lele in the Celestial Palace”
Yi Ping muttered, “But there are few o in the Celestial Palace…”
Shen Xingyue interrupted softly, “I doubt it is Lele It is because I have just seen her just a few days ago”
Yi Ping was startled, “Where is she and where are the others?”
Shen Xingyue said, “That is why I a for you so franticly They have decided to make their way to the Celestial Palace to obtain the Heavenly Relic I couldn’t stop them”
Yi Ping was stunned, “They are going to the Celestial Palace?! Why didn’t you stop them? Lele is a traitor of the Celestial Palace and the Celestial Palace won’t be kind to traitors…”
Shen Xingyue sighed softly, “Do you think I didn’t try? You expectforce or diplomacy? I have tried both means and it didn’t work”
Yi Ping was silent
She was right If Lele the Joyful Goddess wanted to do so so Moreover, there were still Lie Qing the Heavenly Temptress, Shui Yixian the Celestial Fairy, Shui Yujian the Eclipse Heaven Goddess and Shui Meijian the Axis Heaven Goddess
Yi Pingand Yixian stop her?”
Shen Xingyue said, “They didn’t kno long it will take to find the Heavenly Relic They also didn’t kno long it will take you to find Lingfeng The only place they knohere the Heavenly Relic can be located is at the Celestial Palace They want to save you soood intentions”
Yi Ping smiled bitterly, “Now I have perfectly plenty of troubles Quick, we must hurry!”
He was reluctant to go to the Celestial Palace and he had repeatedly warned Lele not to go back there It was because a year ago, he had fought with the Celestial Liege as a Priht that still dreaded him to this day!
By now, Lingfeng had opened her eyes and she had walked weakly beside YI Ping, saying gently to him “Let’s hurry then”
When Yi Ping saw her weakened state, his heart was aching and he said “Lingfeng, are you alright? Why don’t you find a haven to recuperate first? I will surely get back to you in no time…”
Lingfeng shook her head gently, “I am as worry for the rest asto worry about Have you forgotten that I aorate Skill?”
She paused before looking ether…are you are thinking of leaving ht the Celestial Palace alone?”
Yi Ping sighed heavily, “You didn’t tell o off to look for the Heavenly Relic either”
Lingfeng hummed coldly, “This is just trivial Why did you put that in your heart? I know you are a pettythe Heavenly Relic from the others That is why I have asked Yunzi and Youxue to co Do you knohy Lele and the others have also taken the initiative to go to the Celestial Palace on their own? It is because they know that you are reluctant to risk anyone of us But do you know that anyone of us will be glad to give up our lives for you and the other sisters?”
Yi Ping was startled and he was quiet all of a sudden
Six o, Yunzi and Youxue had successful overco the Heaveness, Yixian the Celestial Fairy and Lie Qing the Heavenly Temptress
It was not easy for theh and they had almost lost their lives
Yi Ping had taken the Divine Cala the blunt for them This time round, he was truly a Celestial and did not resist the Divine Force unlike the last time
Lingfeng was the only one left that did not attempt the Divine Calamity She did not have to for she had awakened as a Celestial on her own
She was the Heaveness and her true name represented the Heavens of this realm! In this realm, the Divine Calamity would not be able to affect her and she had all of eternity to ponder over the mysteries of the universe
Her race was the Ancient Celestials who aspired to be Celestial Sages for they knew of another realm that existed above this realm That place was to be called the Ninth Heavens or Beyond To mortals, that place was called the Celestial Realm
Eventually, the Ancient Celestials discovered the means to traverse to Beyond To traverse to Beyond, they had to ascend! To ascend, they had to undergone the tribulations of the Divine Wrath and athe tribulations!
Before the Ancient Celestials departed, they left behind their heart intricate formulas and other divine skills so that one day, theas a Celestial and ascended to Beyond
A long time had passed in Beyond and the Ancient Celestials were eventually joined by other Celestials fro they had found that the Celestial Real for but a transiting realm to yet another realm, the God Realm!
The Celestials were at a complete loss how to reach the God Realm The only clues to reach the God Realm were in the Stellar Sanctuary and the Astronomic Stellar Formation Already many Celestials had been killed in an attempt to storm these two places
The Celestials did not have a choice for them to take the risk for many of them had reached the lih and without a new divine intricacy formula, sooner or later they would be killed by the Divine Wrath which got more powerful after each tribulation
Eventually, there were just a few of the Ancient Celestials that were left and even their Divine Wrath tribulation had transfor than the Divine Wrath!
Knowing that the next time the Heavenly Wrath were to strike would also be their last, the Heaveness, the Universal Old Man and the Great Sage Lord took a calculated risk to descend to the lower realm in an attempt to find fresh clues that would help unravel thean expedition to the Stellar Sanctuary, they had found clues that the Dark Lord of the Chaos Cosmos, the only one that had successfully ascended to the God Realm had made a trip to the lower realm for a search
The trip to the lower realreat risk for no one had ever attempted it before except for the Dark Lord of the Chaos Cosmos He had left behind the means to do so in the Stellar Sanctuary via the Cosmos Stellar Formation
The Cosmos Stellar Formation was complex even to the three Ancient Celestials and their hearts sunk But left with no other choice and finding it less to meditate for another millennium years, they decided to attempt the Cosmos Stellar Formation
During the attee lost his life as he sacrificed hi the Heaveness and the Universal Old Man to the lower realm
His death was a great blow to them, especially the Heaveness It was because they had known each other for as long as they could reh nu time…
