Desolate Devouring Art - Chapter 1326 - Heavenly Primal Wheel
Chapter 1326 – Heavenly Primal Wheel
Since Liu Wuxie could summon the Gate of Darkness, didn’t that mean that he could summon dark elements to fight on his behalf from now on? The black figures were the manifestation of dark elements, spreading like a tide until they enveloped the entire Yin-Yang Realm.
Next came the refining of the Yin-Yang Stone, which he spent half a day completing. The yin-yang energy manifested as two rivers stretching through the desolate world, and his cultivation climbed rapidly, soon reaching the pinnacle of the first-level Primal Origin Realm.
However, it was a pity that the nether clan’s elder had severely consumed the energy in the Yin-Yang Stone. If the Yin-Yang Stone were at full energy, it could help him reach the second-level Primal Origin Realm easily.
Placing both hands on the crystal wall, he summoned a bizarre gate and stepped through it. When he emerged from the Yin-Yang Realm, a black vortex hovered above his head, and he entered it without hesitation.
The moment he appeared on the other side, the soft black grass had vanished; mountain ranges and ravines filled the land. He had entered the Netherworld’s ninth level—the mountain range teemed with spiritual herbs.
“I have to rendezvous with A’Lei and the others as quickly as possible,” Liu Wuxie murmured. It wasn’t natural that there was still no action from the Grand Unity Sect. The interstellar gate would open in another three days, and he began to wonder if the Grand Unity Sect had given up on hunting him.
With a sway of his body, Liu Wuxie vanished and sped toward the center of the ninth level. He wove through the mountain ranges, occasionally encountering other races. He asked around, but none of them had seen A’Lei and the others.
“He actually made it back alive?” Many humans stared in shock the moment they saw Liu Wuxie. After all, plenty had witnessed him falling into the black hole.
“So what if he managed to come out? The Grand Unity Sect has set up the Heaven-Shrouding Spiritual Array waiting for him. He’s still a dead man either way,” whispered a human.
Hearing the surrounding discussion, Liu Wuxie finally understood why he hadn’t seen any disciples of the Grand Unity Sect on the eighth level. They had rushed to the ninth level the moment they entered the Netherworld to set up a spiritual array in advance and wait for him.
Even from a distance, Liu Wuxie could hear their conversation clearly. He quickened his pace, worried that A’Lei and the others might be in danger.
Given the Grand Unity Sect’s temperament, they would surely try to capture A’Lei, A’Li, and Vanya to threaten him—a tactic they already proved in the Ancestral Talisman during the talisman event.
His Communication Talisman did not react, but he reckoned someone had used it while he was in the Yin-Yang Realm, where he couldn’t receive any news.
After crossing a stretch of mountain ranges, Liu Wuxie finally slowed. Sweeping his gaze over the surroundings, he pinched his brows tightly.
“The Myriad-Phase Divine Buddha Array?” Liu Wuxie murmured. He sensed murderous intent in the air, and the spiritual array had enveloped a radius of thousands of miles.
The entire mountain range consisted of seventeen mountains, intricately linked. Since the Ghost Eye’s evolution, the world he saw had changed completely, and he caught faint traces of spiritual energy in the surrounding space.
As long as one stepped into this mountain range, they would enter the array’s attacking range. If someone activated the spiritual array, its power would be so devastating that even ten thousand Buddhas would struggle to walk out alive.
Many disciples of the Grand Unity Sect occupied the seventeen mountains, their eyes fixed calmly on Liu Wuxie.
A large crowd also gathered outside the mountain range, but none dared approach. Word had already spread that the Grand Unity Sect had set up a spiritual array here.
“Liu Wuxie, don’t go in!” Several disciples of the Heavenly Dragon Sect called out.
Liu Wuxie had brought glory to the Heavenly Dragon Sect in recent months, changing many disciples’ opinions of him. The seventeen mountains formed a semi-circle that resembled seventeen towering pillars.
The center of the seventeen mountains was a plain covered in wild grasses. Attacks drove several towering figures down from one of the mountains and forced them to the center of the plains. There weren’t just giants but elves among them as well.
The moment Liu Wuxie laid eyes on the hostages, murderous intent erupted from him. The Grand Unity Sect had captured the giant clan and the elven race; even A’Lei and A’Li were among them, with Vanya seated on A’Lei’s shoulder, fury painted on her face.
The trio was attacked by the Grand Unity Sect the moment they stepped into the ninth level. As the Grand Unity Sect had too many people and the two races had sent few participants to this event, they were no match for each other.
“Grand Unity Sect, you have enraged me thoroughly!” Liu Wuxie said, taking a deep breath to steady his anger. The Grand Unity Sect’s despicable actions ignited his murderous intent.
The Grand Unity Sect naturally captured the giants and elves to force him to show himself. After all, Liu Wuxie had killed over five hundred of their disciples using a profound talisman during the previous event, and they were determined to kill him here.
“Liu Wuxie, their lives are in your hands. I’m curious how you’re going to save them,” a voice echoed from the mountain ahead, spreading to every corner.
There were tens of thousands of people from various races gathered around the seventeen mountains. If Liu Wuxie wanted to rescue the giant clan and the elven race, he would have to step into the plain, which meant walking into the Grand Unity Sect’s trap.
If he refused to enter, the Grand Unity Sect would slaughter the giant clan and the elven race. But without A’Lei, A’Li, and Vanya, he would’ve already died on the sixth level at the hands of the nether clan. Whether by sentiment or reason, he couldn’t stand by and watch.
“Your opponent is me. Let them go,” Liu Wuxie said as he strode toward the plain. The giants and elves were innocent, and he demanded their release.
The moment he stepped into the spiritual array, seventeen pillars of light shot into the sky, forming a prison that sealed the entire plain. A crushing pressure descended at once.
“You ruined my Grand Unity Sect’s plan. Since that’s the case, there’s no need for us to spare them,” the voice echoed again. The Grand Unity Sect had never intended to spare the giants and the elves. After all, Vanya spilled their disciples’ blood; she controlled the Icebound Expanse Array and killed over seventy of them—so how could they spare the elves?
“Big Brother Liu, you shouldn’t have come,” Vanya said, jumping down from A’Lei’s shoulder and walking over to Liu Wuxie. Even she couldn’t find any flaw in the Myriad-Phase Divine Buddha Array.
Waves surged as ten thousand arrows swept toward the center of the plain, and those arrows could easily turn the giants and the elves into sieves.
The Grand Unity Sect no longer cared about its reputation and would use any means necessary to vent its anger.
“Prepare for battle!” A’Lei roared, smashing a punch into the light curtain. But the barrier was incredibly powerful and didn’t budge.
The elves began casting their magic and raised layers of water screens to fend off the incoming arrows.
However, Liu Wuxie didn’t rush to strike. He swept his gaze around, searching for the spiritual array’s weakness. As long as he could break the Myriad-Phase Divine Buddha Array, he could kill all the Grand Unity Sect disciples present, regardless of their numbers.
Too many arrows flew, and several elves took hits, losing their combat strength. Vanya immediately used her healing magic to treat everyone’s injuries, and those outside the light screen were aghast.
“What a terrifying spiritual array! I’m afraid that it can even trap a cultivator at the Void Realm to death,” whispered a spectator.
The Myriad-Phase Divine Buddha Array was no longer an ordinary spiritual array. It was no weaker than Liu Wuxie’s Icebound Expanse Array, perhaps even stronger.
“Liu Wuxie, stop your pointless struggle and accept your death,” the voice echoed once more as more arrows shot out from the seventeen mountains. They knew the arrows alone couldn’t kill everyone, but they had yet to bring out their trump card.
“Bring out everything you’ve got!” Liu Wuxie roared, raising his head to the sky and releasing his aura at the Primal Origin Realm. The sheer impact made the entire Myriad-Phase Divine Buddha Array tremble. The array tottered on the verge of collapse at any moment. Judging from the way it shook, it didn’t seem difficult to destroy.
“He reached the Primal Origin Realm?!” An exclamation echoed from the surroundings. They remembered that Liu Wuxie had only been at the fourth-level Origin Conversion Realm when he took part in the Myriad Race Ceremony. Yet he had leaped through multiple levels in mere months, leaving many stunned.
Mo Hong stood on a mountain, watching in silence. “Liu Wuxie, let me see how long you can hold out for!”
An immense force descended on everyone as the Myriad-Phase Divine Buddha Array drew power from all seventeen mountains. The giant clan held firm, but the elven race barely endured, creaking sounds coming from their bodies.
“Break!” Liu Wuxie roared, hurling a punch that rippled outward in a shockwave.
The Myriad-Phase Divine Buddha Array shook again, and Liu Wuxie accelerated his assault.
“Vanya, break the spiritual array with me,” Liu Wuxie yelled. He performed the Seven Dipper Steps and vanished.
Upon receiving Liu Wuxie’s instruction, Vanya immediately joined him to break the spiritual array.
“A’Lei, A’Li, protect everyone,” Liu Wuxie’s voice echoed once more, for the upcoming fight would be unimaginably brutal. Even he didn’t know if he could survive.
In mere moments, Liu Wuxie detected several cores of the array and began dismantling them with ease. After all, who could surpass him in the art of spiritual arrays?
This instantly made many Grand Unity Sect disciples wear grim looks, realizing they had underestimated his speed and strength.
“Release it!” Mo Hong said, his voice devoid of emotion.
Hundreds of disciples formed seals in unison, their light blotting out the sky. A strange weapon appeared the next moment.
“It’s the Heavenly Primal Wheel!” Exclamation rippled through the crowd at the sight of the strange weapon. Many recognized it. They hadn’t expected the Grand Unity Sect to bring out the Heavenly Primal Wheel, which was comparable to the pinnacle of the Void Realm.
At its full power, even cultivators at the ninth-level Void Realm would die under the attack, and ordinary cultivators at the Primal Origin Realm couldn’t control such a weapon. This was why the Grand Unity Sect had hundreds of disciples working together.
The moment the Heavenly Primal Wheel appeared, Liu Wuxie’s face finally changed. The Grand Unity Sect was genuinely willing to pay any price to kill him if they could bring out such a weapon. This was undoubtedly a lifebound weapon of an Earth Immortal, and the Grand Unity Sect had allowed it into the Netherworld with the sole objective of killing him.
The Heavenly Primal Wheel tore through the wind and shot toward Liu Wuxie, shuttling through the spiritual array and entering the plain. As it flew, the wheel expanded until it blotted out the sky, ready to grind everyone into powder. The power of this strike alone wasn’t inferior to a blow from an Earth Immortal.
“All giants, attack together!” A’Lei roared as seven giants struck in unison to intercept the Heavenly Primal Wheel. They didn’t just possess towering figures; they also possessed immense strength.
