379: Brahma's divine power is revealed, Tianji backfires, and Qianji Zhenren is seriously injured
In the secluded valley, night fell.
Only the radiance emanating from the Universe Plate seemed to reflect the myriad stars, with a mysterious power flowing within the Universe Plate.
Qianji Zhenren, with his hands clasped, activated his Heavenly Mandate technique. A profound and mysterious aura entered the Universe Plate, and the stars on the Universe Plate began to shift, tracing unique trajectories, their light growing brighter and brighter.
Boom!
The Void Realm rumbled, and thousands of starlight burst forth from the Universe Plate. All the light converged at one point, precisely where the person being divined was located, even attempting to manifest the target's true form, presenting a blurry silhouette.
However, just as Qianji Zhenren was about to manifest the Demon Slayer Old Man's true form, the light point on the Universe Plate suddenly dimmed, and the trajectories once again became chaotic and disordered.
"How is it?"
Tianqiao Xing's expression changed as he anxiously asked.
"This Demon Slayer Old Man has some tricks up his sleeve. The Universe Plate can't even divine his true form, but I refuse to believe it!"
Qianji Zhenren's eyes turned cold. He took out the Tianshen Talisman, preparing to use it to communicate with the Universe Plate and directly observe where the Demon Slayer Old Man was located.
"Immortal Master, do you mean that the Demon Slayer Old Man is just a fake identity, and someone is impersonating him?"
Tianqiao Xing said in a deep voice.
"Exactly. Such a fake identity is very difficult to divine, and he must also be wearing treasures that conceal heavenly secrets. If it weren't for the Universe Plate, let alone divining his true form, I probably wouldn't even be able to pinpoint his location!"
Qianji Zhenren replied. During the operation of his Heavenly Mandate technique, he had already discovered this point. Divining this person was like navigating through layers of dense fog, making it impossible to proceed.
Tianqiao Xing's expression turned cold. No wonder a Divine Hall suddenly appeared in the west, along with the Demon Slayer Old Man and the Azure Dragon Saint Envoy.
It turned out that they were all deliberately played by someone to divert attention.
Qianji Zhenren's eyes narrowed. This Tianshen Talisman could only be used three times in total. To use it once right after acquiring it was quite painful.
But there was no other way. This person was hidden too deeply, making him a little curious about who the other party truly was.
He actually made so many major powers suffer setbacks, desperately searching for him.
The Universe Plate ascended again, with Yin and Yang Qi intertwining, mysterious and unfathomable.
"Stars as a guide, pinpoint the true form; heavenly secrets flow, location revealed!"
Qianji Zhenren shouted, his incantations ceaseless. In an instant, brilliant light erupted, constructing a spiritual bridge between heaven and earth.
"Heavenly Eye open, vision boundless, true face unhidden, image manifest in light!"
"Appear!"
At this moment, with the help of the Universe Plate and the Tianshen Talisman, Qianji Zhenren was like a Heavenly God Divine Lord, his gaze capable of traversing thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, tracing back to unknown places.
A blurry shadow was reflected in the Universe Plate, its figure gradually becoming clear.
Even just the back view exuded an extreme domineering aura, inspiring awe.
...
At this moment.
In the sky ten thousand meters high, Chu Jiang, at the top of the warship, frowned slightly, feeling a sense of being spied upon.
Boom!
The Brahma True King Skill was activated, and the True King's Eye swept across the eight directions. Wherever it passed, it saw through illusions, leaving nothing to hide.
His expression changed.
"Courting death!"
Chu Jiang coldly shouted, an extremely cold voice echoing through the sky.
His figure instantly vanished.
Breaking through the Nine Heavens, he stepped beyond the clouds. As his magical power surged, he extended a colossal palm, the Vatican Divine Power roaring, as if breaking through the limitations of heaven and earth, striking an invisible starry sky eye with the mighty power of heaven and earth.
Boom!
"Shatter!"
Hundreds of thousands of layers of Void Realm collapsed under the Vatican Divine Power, turning into a dead silence, engulfing all matter.
...
In the secluded valley.
"Not good!"
"Pfft!"
Qianji Zhenren spat out a large mouthful of vital blood, hastily retracting the Universe Plate. One of his eyes directly burst, blood splattering everywhere.
The starlight of the Universe Plate rapidly dimmed, until it completely dissipated.
"Immortal Master, how are you..."
Tianqiao Xing was shocked and quickly helped Qianji Zhenren. Who exactly was that person, to actually suffer such heavy injuries just by divining him?
"This person possesses monstrous strength and can also spy on Heavenly Mandate divinations. If I hadn't stopped in time, I'm afraid I would have died in the Yellow Springs!"
Qianji Zhenren's face was pale, one eye already a bloody mess. He had also suffered a backlash from the Heavenly Mandate, and his cultivation had dropped by two stages.
Could the other party be a Rongtian Stage expert?
That power even carried a pressure from heaven and earth.
It was simply terrifying.
Tianqiao Xing was a little unwilling. After paying so much, they still hadn't found the Demon Slayer Old Man's true form.
How would he explain this to Saintess?
"This divination wasn't without its rewards. Although I didn't fully see his true form, his specific location has been determined."
"The direction this person is heading can be divined to be the border prefectures of Sun Moon Country. Go back and check the intelligence, see if any important figures have recently gone there. It shouldn't be difficult to deduce his... cough cough... true identity!"
Qianji Zhenren was a little out of breath. His luck was truly not good. Rongtian Stage experts, currently, there were only a few known ones.
Could that person be Yuan Shouyi, the head of the Demon Suppression Division?
"Immortal Master, with this piece of information, it wasn't a wasted trip. In that case, I shall take my leave!"
Tianqiao Xing's face lit up with joy. After a few compliments, he quickly left to report back to the Earth Fiend Hall headquarters in Tianzhou.
"Cough cough..."
Qianji Zhenren coughed lightly, blood occasionally spilling from the corners of his mouth. After taking another Medicinal Pill for healing, he also flew into the sky and disappeared.
...
Above the sky ten thousand meters high.
The four flying boats were all on high alert due to Chu Jiang's cold shout, everyone gripping their weapons.
Bang!
Chu Jiang landed on the purple-gold warship, his expression unchanged.
Yet, he was inwardly astonished.
This Huatian Level Cultivation Technique consumed an incredibly terrifying amount of magical power. Just now, after unleashing the Vatican Divine Power, with only one strike, half of his magical power was gone.
The more Advanced the Cultivation Technique, the greater the magical power consumption, naturally.
However, his magical power was already several times that of his peers, and even the Overlords Supreme Blade, which had reached the Saint stage, didn't have such exaggerated consumption.
Nevertheless, its power was indeed astonishing. The Vatican Divine Power, as the trump card of the Brahma True King Skill, could temporarily break through the limitations of heaven and earth, mobilizing the power of heaven and earth.
This was equivalent to possessing some of the abilities of the Rongtian Stage while still in the Heaven and Earth Realm.
Upon closer thought.
He felt that the Azure Wood Emperor Skill, this Cultivation Technique, was truly Heaven-Defying.
Before he Advanced to the Heaven and Earth Realm, with the Azure Wood Emperor Skill, his magical power was almost endless; he never lacked magical power.
It seemed that he absolutely had to get his hands on the Advanced chapters of the Azure Wood Emperor Skill.
"My Lord, what happened?"
"Was there an assassination?"
Fu Yunxuan and the others' expressions changed as they came forward to ask.
"Lord Chu, are you alright!"
Principal General Zhao asked with concern. The commotion was truly too terrifying, as if the sky was about to collapse.
Chu Jiang's strength was simply too frightening. He felt that he had already surpassed most of the people on the Heaven-Grade ranking, and the key was that he was not yet thirty years old, while those old monsters on the Heaven-Grade ranking had all lived for hundreds, or even thousands, of years.
Chu Emperor sent him here with the intention of protecting Chu Jiang, but looking at this situation, it was hard to say who was protecting whom.
"Someone used the Heavenly Mandate technique to divine me, and I discovered them!"
"It's nothing now!"
Chu Jiang said indifferently.
What? ∑(❍ฺд❍ฺlll)
Principal General Zhao was once again shocked. How many more tricks did this lord have up his sleeve? The Heavenly Mandate technique was formless and intangible, impossible to detect.
This troubled countless powerful individuals, yet they were helpless.
Chu Jiang could actually detect it and even counterattack.
"Lord Chu, you truly keep your abilities hidden!"
Principal General Zhao praised.
"Just lucky!"
Chu Jiang remained expressionless.
...
Principal General Zhao's mouth twitched, and he fell silent. Could they even continue this conversation?
As expected of the person rumored to be the most pretentious in the west!
Even a single sentence could infuriate someone to death.
This small interlude did not affect the speed of the flying boats.
They continued to fly towards the Three Prefectures.
