Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 761 - 738

The two experts simultaneously exerted their full strength, unleashing the terrifying, boundless might of the Heavenly Scripture!

Yet Zhou Heng simply yawned and said, "It’s just a dog-eat-dog fight, let’s go."

He had no fondness for either of them.

There was no need to mention Tong Anyue, with his despicable methods. And Kong Aokun wasn’t much better either; if he truly had any courage, he should have taken An’an away from the Tong Family, providing her a haven and sheltering her from storms, instead of lying in Tong Anyue’s bed and secretly taking pleasure with An’an!

Zhou Heng had once held a measure of respect for Kong Aokun, but now it was completely gone.

Giant clans really couldn’t produce many good sprouts!

Bing Xinzhu nodded in agreement; being a woman herself, she naturally leaned more toward An’an and had not a shred of fondness for Tong Anyue and Kong Aokun.

With the battle between Tong Anyue and his opponent raging fiercely, it was some time before they could pay any attention to Zhou Heng and Bing Xinzhu, so the two of them circled around the fight and entered the hall.

— Zhou Heng also didn’t dare to join the fray lightly, for they were nearing the end of their journey. Now that they had already met four people, the fifth person who possessed the Heavenly Scripture must be close by!

But neither Dugu Xuan nor Gongyang Taisun had appeared, evidently harboring thoughts of looting a burning house, which meant Zhou Heng and Bing Xinzhu were even less likely to get entangled in the battle. It would be better to sit back and watch.

Moreover, their strength was relatively the weakest, so waiting and watching was undoubtedly the best choice.

The two entered the hall.

It was magnificent and spectacular, reminding Zhou Heng of the Imperial Dragon Hall among the stars.

It seemed that the architecture of the ancient period was far more exquisite, like the Imperial Dragon Hall and this hall here, whose scale Zhou Heng couldn’t see in Juexian City.

That’s right, the purpose of building the Forty-Nine Immortal City was only for inheritance, acting as a bridge between the Mortal Realm and the Bright Realm. Where was the need for extravagance? Practicality was most important.

And besides, the Immortal Realm had only been rebuilt for a million years, how could it compare to the flourishing period of the ancient Immortal Realm?

Without enough foundation, it was doomed to look like new money!

However, as they entered this hall, the pressure surged sharply, as if they had entered the true domain of the Heavenly Scripture here. The Blood River Heavenly Scripture and the Red Lotus Heavenly Scripture both lightly swayed, radiating waves of light within Zhou Heng and Bing Xinzhu’s bodies, dissolving the pressure.

By this point, unless one possessed the Heavenly Scripture, even the natives of the area wouldn’t be able to enter.

"No, it can’t be such a coincidence!" Upon entering the hall, Zhou Heng cried out in despair, for he saw a stele erected in the very center, looking exactly like the one in the Imperial Dragon Hall!

Another Dragon Sovereign or perhaps the Dragon Emperor itself was being suppressed here! No wonder he had seen that indecently long iron pillar earlier; that must have been fastened with a chain. Like in the Imperial Dragon Hall, it must be one of the Array Eyes used to seal and suppress.

Why hadn’t the cataclysm in the Immortal Realm crushed them to death?

"What happened?" asked Bing Xinzhu.

"Remember the Imperial Dragon Hall?"

"Oh, now that you mention it, it does bear a resemblance!" Bing Xinzhu arrived at the Imperial Dragon Hall rather late, and she hadn’t seen that stele since it had already shattered, but the immense hall indeed gave her a sense of deja vu.

"It’s more than just a resemblance; there must be another Dragon Sovereign, or even the Dragon Emperor, suppressed here!" Zhou Heng approached the central stele. In olden times, the Dragon Emperor and the five Dragon Kings were cornered and besieged, but they were only suppressed, not a single one died!

They must all possess Treasure Artifacts of the same level as the Blue Dragon Empress’s necklace!

— Only a Treasure Artifact inherited from the Bright Realm could stir a reaction from the Black Sword!

"So the forces that went to the Imperial Dragon Hall were completely wiped out by that Dragon Sovereign?" Bing Xinzhu was astonished. The reasons behind the complete destruction of those people had not been made clear, but now Zhou Heng seemed to hold the truth.

"Yes."

"Where is that Dragon Sovereign now?"

"Hehe... hehe..." Zhou Heng scratched his head, "You’ve already seen them."

How could she possibly have met them?

After thinking for a moment, Bing Xinzhu realized and said, "It’s that woman with the blue hair!"

"You guessed right, but there’s no reward!" Zhou Heng waved his hand, but then he thought about how pitiable the Blue Dragon Empress was, suppressed for over three million years, only to finally emerge and end up with amnesia, alternating between being normal and childlike.

Bing Xinzhu inhaled sharply, "Then should we continue going down?"

The Blue Dragon Empress, whom even Dugu Xuan was unwilling to fight to death—if another being like that were released, how much trouble would it cause the Immortal Realm? And what if the one being suppressed here was the Dragon Emperor?

The very sound of the Dragon Emperor seemed more formidable than a Dragon Sovereign!

"No worries, this place is restricted by a realm suppression. Even if it’s the Dragon Emperor, it can’t possibly break free! Moreover, if the newly emerged Heavenly Scripture was to be taken by him, it would be even more troublesome later on!" Zhou Heng thought for a moment and said.

He tapped lightly on the stele, but to his surprise, a crack immediately appeared that spread like a spiderweb, covering the entire stele. With a loud bang, the stele completely shattered into countless small stones that fell.

"How much force did you use?" Bing Xinzhu looked at him.

Zhou Heng felt quite innocent; he just casually tapped it without using any force at all!

Keep in mind that it took the fresh blood of tens of thousands of Sunshine Kings and the Moonlight Emperor to break the seal and shatter the stele, yet now Zhou Heng, whose cultivation level was merely that of a Sublimation Sovereign and even if he possessed the power of a Thirteen Aspects, merely an ordinary Sublimation Emperor’s strength, how could a light tap from him possibly break the stele?

"It looks like that Dragon Sovereign, or perhaps the Dragon Emperor, is not far from making his return to the world!" Bing Xinzhu speculated.

"However, because of the restriction here, it actually disrupted his plans!" Zhou Heng laughed, who could avoid Huo Tian’s seals? If one truly had the ability to avoid them, why would they be suppressed here?

In the place where the stele disappeared, sure enough, there was an infinitely deep cave, just like the Imperial Dragon Hall.

The two of them scaled down the cave walls. Since both were now Sublimation Sovereigns, possessing the power of a Sublimation Emperor, they descended extremely fast and reached the bottom after just a day.

A vast expanse of heaven and earth unfolded before them, still ablaze with fire everywhere!

"Who could have imagined that beneath the land of Juexian City, there lay such a world!" Bing Xinzhu remarked with a sense of wonder.

Zhou Heng started walking forward; everything here was devoured by flames, leaving no traces of the great battle that had taken place in ancient times. Perhaps many broken Treasure Artifacts had been left here, but they had long been burned to nothing by the roaring flames.

Bing Xinzhu walked shoulder to shoulder with him. Her study of the Bright Realm Heavenly Scripture meant that no spell from the Immortal Realm would be deemed worth her attention. The trip to the Imperial Dragon Hall was merely a cursory visit. The goal was to bring back Bing Xinzhu, but instead, she ended up being bullied by Zhou Heng and, under the pressure from Gongyang Taisun, had no choice but to compromise with Zhou Heng.

Walking side by side now, she felt a sensation of revisiting old grounds.

After three days, they could see a chain hanging low from the sky, diverging from Zhou Heng and her by two to three miles. However, the chain was already heated red-hot, with each Array Pattern lighting up one after another.

The Blue Dragon Empress’s escape from her predicament was related to a large number of blood sacrifices; otherwise, she might still be trapped beneath the Imperial Dragon Hall. But here... due to changes in the environment and the inferno that burned the heavens, the formation had almost collapsed after being burned for a long time!

If it were not for Huo Tian’s sudden intervention, perhaps the Dragon Sovereign or Dragon Emperor would have already been reborn.

"Wait!" Zhou Heng suddenly stopped and turned to look back.

Bing Xinzhu also followed his gaze. They saw a figure rushing towards them, surrounded by an earthy yellow glow, which in the blink of an eye, had already caught up with them.

It was none other than Tong Anyue!

He glanced over Zhou Heng and the others, a flash of murderous intent in his eyes, but he did not take any action. Instead, he continued to rush forward.

Clearly, his goal was to reach the ownerless Heavenly Scripture first and then return to dispose of the others.

"Tong Anyue—" Just as Tong Anyue had passed them, Kong Aokun’s roar came through, just a beat behind and now following closely after Tong Anyue, without even glancing at Zhou Heng and his companion.

Zhou Heng frowned and said, "When we arrived, the stele had not shattered, indicating we were ahead! But now Tong Anyue and Kong Aokun have caught up, whereas the bearer of the Green Wood Heavenly Scripture remains out of sight, which doesn’t sit well with me!"

"He’s probably waiting for an opportune moment to swoop in and clean up after everyone has exhausted their strength in battle," Bing Xinzhu suggested.

"He sure has patience, maybe he is that number one person in the Immortal Realm!" Zhou Heng guessed.

"Not necessarily; people change, especially after a great setback!" Bing Xinzhu said, obviously referring to Gongyang Taisun, even though she did not mention him by name.

"So you’re saying this is my fault?" Zhou Heng laughed. It was him who had shattered Gongyang Taisun, possibly twisting his view on life as well.

The two continued on their way, and Zhou Heng suddenly thought, if the Great Eternal Emperor had not been suppressed here, then where could he be? If the stele above had not broken, the Great Eternal Emperor should not be here—although not necessarily, as the restriction here was about to break, maybe one could enter from another place.

Everything remained to be seen.

Another day passed, and the chains from above hung lower and lower. They could also see seven other chains hanging from different directions, all converging at a certain point in the center of the cave, identical to the situation at the Imperial Dragon Hall.

"Only those possessing a Heavenly Scripture can enter here; otherwise, they would face certain death. This is the suppression of the Heaven and Earth Laws," Bing Xinzhu suddenly said. "Therefore, whether it is the Dragon Sovereign or the Dragon Emperor, they should have already been burned to death!"

"Unless—" Zhou Heng frowned, "this newly born Heavenly Scripture has been protecting him all this time!"

"What a nuisance!" he immediately added.

Ahead, a giant coffin appeared with Array Patterns all over it, already frayed and broken by the flames. Next to the coffin, a large man sat cross-legged, Kong Aokun and Tong Anyue were already fighting again, yet the large man seemed oblivious to it all, creating an indescribably bizarre scene.

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Shockwaves from the battle surged, but when they reached the man, a hemispherical shield appeared around him, absorbing these forces, while the man inside appeared to have no reaction, continuing to sit there.

— He surely couldn’t see what was happening outside!

The moment Zhou Heng saw this large man, an indefinable sensation surged within him, as if his body trembled involuntarily, an inexplicable agitation spreading throughout him.

"What’s wrong?" Bing Xinzhu noticed Zhou Heng’s unusual demeanor.

Zhou Heng did not reply; he already had his answer in his heart.

The Great Eternal Emperor!

This large man must be the Great Eternal Emperor! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at Qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
