Chapter 981: Chapter 917: Divine Technique Monsters Return, Faceless Ones

At this moment, a group of people were circling around a mud bowl the size of a cauldron.

The Earth Spirit’s true form wasn’t the most peculiar, but certainly the smallest.

But in the Earth Spirit’s own words, it was the embodiment of the Earth Dao, and size was merely a concept to it; in other words, it could be as large as it wanted.

Han Yu and the Artifact Spirit exchanged glances, having encountered this object once before when they coerced the Earth Spirit for help.

That time, to keep its true form intact, the Earth Spirit revealed the strange inscriptions inside it.

Due to this bizarre object, Han Yu dared not touch it recklessly, thus abandoning the plan to use the Earth Spirit’s true form to seek other Spirit Bodies.

Now, this mud bowl appeared once more.

The Earth Spirit leapt lightly into it, its tail softly sweeping, resulting in a change even more significant than the last time.

As if a layer of dust was swept away, the mud bowl suddenly became crystal clear, emitting a faint glow, countless runes flickering in and out of view, suddenly shining brightly the next moment.

The Earth Spirit leapt out once more and twirled around the Water Spirit, spewing out bubbles with each spin.

“It says that ever since it awakened, its true form has looked like this, and a thought has always warned it to guard its true form well, so if there’s anything special about it, it must be its true form.”

The Water Spirit acted as the mouthpiece, explaining for the Earth Spirit.

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn’t resist gathering around, each observing the item now resembling a jade bowl, exclaiming in wonder.

“Could it be this?”

“It should be, otherwise we have nothing else here.”

Xia Wuyou and others murmured as they speculated.

As for whether it was or not, that would have to wait for Han Yu to verify.

How to verify?

Naturally, he had to take it for a run to the Central Continent.

Han Yu grabbed the jade bowl, and the next moment, deposited it into his Sea of Consciousness.

Whether it was or not, they really could only find a rule to test it.

“Then let’s get going.”

The Artifact Spirit urged impatiently.

Mu Zili suddenly spoke, “Can’t we leave it behind to help?”

He pointed at the Artifact Spirit, stating that it was indeed the rules just demonstrated by the Artifact Spirit that had shocked them profoundly.

Mu Zili already had an idea in his mind.

Quan Xiaotong had the same thought.

Exchange of power!

Using the cultivation of Yama Hall cultivators and Celestial Dao Sect cultivators, exchanged with the Central Continent.

Having such ability but not using it would be sheer waste.

“This is the opportunity for the Central Continent to turn the tables!”

Quan Xiaotong exclaimed with some excitement. He was far crazier than Mu Zili, believing that if used correctly, the underlying advantage was definitely owned by the Central Continent.

Their high-level combat power included cultivators from the Divine Dao Realm.

As for top-tier combat power, Han Yu was more than capable of dealing with the Four Extremes Hall and the three from the Ten Great Dao Palaces.

As for the final layer, it would depend on how the Heavenly Dao performed.

Could it be that in the end, this little fellow on his journey would single-handedly shine and sweep through eternity?

Quan Xiaotong glanced at Han Yu, suddenly giving rise to a bizarre thought.

This thought was somewhat outrageous, for his confidence in Han Yu even surpassed his belief in the Heavenly Dao.

In the past, Han Yu couldn’t even defeat a split soul, but before long, he almost toyed that split soul to death.

Not long ago, Di Liuxin also forced Han Yu to flee in panic, yet the tables turned, and now Han Yu had captured the opponent.

Rather than hoping on the ethereal Heavenly Dao, he preferred investing this hope in Han Yu.

The Artifact Spirit was unwilling, having no sense of security leaving Han Yu.

“I’ll go to suppress the rules, you go help the Central Continent.”

Han Yu understood the ambition of Quan Xiaotong and the others, who wanted to completely elevate the Central Continent’s foundational combat power.

He didn’t object, for if it truly succeeded, Ye Hei and the others wouldn’t be cultivators with congenital deficiencies anymore.

Given their talents, if they truly attained the power of cultivators Walking the Dao, the Central Continent would indeed be stabilized.

Besides this batch, the Central Continent was still not short of qualified cultivators.

As long as they could break into the Divine Platform Realm, they could immediately gain the strength of both factions’ cultivators.

This was a reform capable of stirring great trends.

Also an opportunity to completely reverse the Central Continent’s foundation.

To entirely seize the foundation of Yama Hall and the Celestial Dao Sect!

The Artifact Spirit remained unwilling, having plenty of tasks already.

It now also took up Han Yu’s former roles, not knowing how long it had been since he cared about pills, leaving all duties to it.

Resulting in Quan Xiaotong and the others approaching it for pills instead of Han Yu.

“I’ll return for pills every six days, focus on helping them get things done.”

Han Yu said so, and seeing the Artifact Spirit’s unwillingness, smiled and continued.

“Don’t you want to overthrow the Heavenly Dao? You need a team for that! If you don’t put in effort, how will you overthrow the Heavenly Dao?”

Mentioning this, the Artifact Spirit got excited.

If it was for this reason, it could accept.

Once Yama Hall and the Celestial Dao Sect lay flat, it could team up with Han Yu to overthrow the Heavenly Dao together, bringing along the entire Central Continent.

“Rest assured, we will ensure its safety.”

Mu Zili also assured Han Yu, now that the value of the Artifact Spirit has likely soared, second only to Han Yu.

It is even key to reversing the entire situation in the Central Continent, its importance is self-evident.

It will definitely receive the most secure protection.

Mu Zili has even planned to assemble the remaining Sect Leaders, and personally lead the team to move with the Artifact Spirit.

“Alright, I’ll head to the Central Continent first.”

Han Yu waved his hand, instantly transforming into an aurora again.

…

At the same time, the situation across the Central Continent became more tense.

The discovery of rules came along with various deaths.

Some died under the rules, others in the battles between both sides.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

The First Hall’s Yin Wang re-entered the Dao Palace, and the light screen above his head immediately unfolded.

He slightly bowed before standing aside and speaking slowly.

“It seems there are other measures within the rules, but they are merely countermeasures, no other moves have been spotted.”

This period has been enough for him to discern the depths.

Even Jiu You and Wujiu returned halfway once, reporting their observations, which naturally included the incident of Han Yu’s face appearing in the rules.

“Besides the matter of that puppet appearing in the rules, this is likely the work of the Heavenly Dao.”

But he didn’t dare to gamble; if he dared, he wouldn’t have reported it to this one.

As Soul Bureaud said, this is simply unsolvable, inherently adversaries, and no one would gamble.

The matter is too significant, can’t afford to gamble, better to kill first regardless.

“Kill!”

A chilly voice slowly emerged in front of the light screen.

The Celestial Being wouldn’t gamble either, no matter why Han Yu appeared in the rules, just kill him anyway.

No matter what the Heavenly Dao wants to do.

There’s one more matter.

Yin Wang hesitated for a while before speaking, “The three thousand Dao rules cannot be accommodated by cultivators of the Divine Platform Realm, and we don’t have many cultivators of the Divine Dao Realm, what does the master plan to do?”

What he wants to know is what the master’s backup plan actually is.

“They should be arriving soon.”

In front of the light screen, a voice slowly spoke.

Suddenly, the whole Western Territory camp fell into chaos.

Yin Wang looked up after leaving the Dao Palace, only to see the entire sky covered in darkness.

But at first glance, it wasn’t clouds, but rather like a massive writhing object.

Immediately, as if raining, drops of ink-black water kept falling.

After wriggling on the ground, the water drops immediately gathered, forming silhouettes in every corner of the Western Territory.

Yin Wang’s expression changed for the first time, and he shouted loudly, “Everyone, find cover nearby.”

He could disregard some lives, but he couldn’t ignore the lives of the entire camp.

He recognized these black ghostly things and knew their terror.

It could be said that if these things pounced on their cultivators, the entire Western Territory would instantly become a battlefield of Asuras.

Yin Wang finally understood what his master’s backup plan was!

It turns out, it was these monsters!

It turns out the real entities responsible for seizing the rules are these things!

Their powerful Life Force was created by the combination of the rules of creation and vitality of the Celestial Being.

Initially, it was merely a vessel for nurturing Divine Techniques, but its violent and devouring nature made it even more aggressive.

In the past, to weaken its nature, Yama Hall tried to separate an avatar from it and sent it to the barren land of the Central Continent for experimentation to prevent it from growing.

Unfortunately, no matter how it was split, its nature would always remain violent for its growth, making it difficult to control, so they set it aside.

Little did they expect that while they set it aside, the Celestial Being didn’t.

Thinking back, these ghostly things must have become much stronger after such a long time!

Constantly, raindrops gathered, gradually forming human-like shapes.

Moments later, faceless monsters with entirely black bodies appeared in every corner of the Western Territory camp.

They twisted their heads as if examining the surroundings, and soon noticed Yin Wang.

Yin Wang was also examining these things and remained slightly on guard; in the past, these monsters were mindless beings, who knows to what extent the master has transformed them.

Both parties sized each other up but didn’t make a move.

After waiting for a moment, this group of faceless monsters suddenly moved in unison, but not to attack; rather, they stood in an orderly manner to the side.

They appeared to be waiting for Yin Wang to speak.

“Can you understand what I’m saying?”

Yin Wang asked hesitantly, speaking slowly.

Unexpectedly, the faceless ones all nodded in agreement, which caused a shiver in Yin Wang’s heart.

He didn’t expect them to be modified to such an extent!

Trying to maintain a calm appearance, Yin Wang solemnly spoke, “Then set off immediately, my subordinates will be responsible for seeking out the rules. Just carry out what the master instructed.”
