Chapter 2797 – Bad Elements
In the desolate battlefield, an antiquean whose scorpion tail had a five-colored snake head on it suddenly appeared. It was Shrine Master Mu. His eyes were bloodshot, and his entire body exuded a shocking aura. With every breath, his huge lungs moved the heavens and the earth, making it seem like the entire world was part of his body.
He was filled with anger and sorrow, and as a result, the entire world resonated with his raging emotions, emitting mournful cries. He landed on the ground, holding the Five-Elements Soul-Vanquishing Seal in his hand, with tiny astrons from Mu Zhizhi attached to it.
The death of astral gods returned them to the universe. Mu Zhizhi’s body had burst into fireworks and her astrons had scattered across the entire battlefield, turning it into a sea of starlight. From a distance, the sea of astrons formed an extremely beautiful and dreamy scene. How would mortals understand that it was actually the shattered body of an astral god?
Without cosmic charts, the scattered astrons had lost their blueprint. Breaking apart was equivalent to death, and it was impossible to condense into a living person again. Mu Zhizhi was forever gone.
Even if she’d had xeno fatigue, she wouldn’t die, but now she’d turned into a patch of star sand that was gradually dimming and turning into the most ordinary sand.
“Haha….” Shrine Master Mu bent his knees, his face twisted. He wantonly laughed, slowly kneeling on the ground. When his knees touched the ground, two lines of starlike tears fell from his eyes and dropped to the star sand below.
“Daughter, I’m sorry. It was your father’s inability to let go of his greed that killed you. I’m sorry! In your life, I really let you down!” Shrine Master Mu’s voice trembled, his fists clenched, and his fingernails pierced into his flesh. Both his human and snake faces were twisted so fiercely that they had gone numb. He was suppressing the pain in his heart! But in the end, he couldn’t suppress it.
With a low roar, the surrounding mountains, rivers, mists, and the sea of sand instantly exploded with him as the center. The destruction quickly spread, and in a short period, everything turned into ashes, forming a crater that was thousands of miles across. That was the power of a foundationeer!
If Tianming saw it, he would also feel awe.
“Zhizhi, if there’s another life, father will be good to you again. In the next life, our luck will definitely not be bad. You won’t suffer from xeno fatiigue and you can realize your ideals and wishes. If the next life isn’t in the Xenoabyss, it’ll be even better….” The Xenoabyss was a place many people yearned for. But the xeno fatigue here was an unsolvable devil.
Shrine Master Mu, holding a handful of star sand, was hysterical.
It took a long time before Mu Fu dared to come to his side. He dared not say anything because his son had recovered and was ecstatic, and Shrine Master Mu’s daughter could have been like that, too….
“Mu Fu, I envy you.” Shrine Master Mu suddenly stood up and looked at his subordinate.
“Shrine Master, my condolences….” Mu Fu lowered his head, a little nervous.
“You don’t have to worry. This was my own choice, and I’ll bear the consequences myself. There’s no need to blame you,” Shrine Master Mu said.
Mu Fu clenched his teeth, only daring to nod.
“Let’s go.” Shrine Master Mu put away some of the star sand. His expression became collected once again, but iciness could be seen in the depth of his gaze.
“Yes.”
The two set off. Mu Fu also didn’t dare look back at the place that had made Shrine Master Mu sad.
“Next, I’ll go to the Nether Palace,” Shrine Master Mu said in a deep voice.
“Shrine Master, do you want to report this matter?” Mu Fu asked.
“Yes,” Shrine Master Mu said.
“A person who can solve xeno fatigue will definitely cause a sensation across the entire Xenoabyss, right?” Mu Fu lowered his head, looking a little melancholic.
“Don’t worry, for your son, it might not be a bad thing. Although many people will be studying him, as the only case, he’ll definitely be cherished by many parties. Maybe he can get a lot of benefits.”
“Shrine Master, that isn’t what I’m worried about.” Mu Fu stopped. “Will you be punished for not notifying the Nether Palace earlier? Instead, we took private action and let him escape.”
Shrine Master Mu wryly laughed. “Perhaps. But if I don’t say it now, we’ll miss the opportunity when news gets out that your son was healed. It won’t just be punishment then. But perhaps we’ll have a chance if we say it now.
“The trouble with this extraordinary person is that he’s an outworlder and can leave at any time. So we have to capture him by the most stringent means,” Shrine Master Mu said with narrowed eyes.
“If the entire Antiquitas Mortis’s power is used, it’ll be much stronger than our district searching alone. By then, the Ninth District may be full of people everywhere. Even people from other countries and forces may infiltrate. The future will probably be very lively, with all kinds of bad characters,” Mu Fu restlessly said.
“Yes.” Shrine Master Mu squinted. “He wants to hide? But I absolutely want to drag him out and let him find out what it means to lose his freedom”
Tianming’s actions had created an enemy. Of course, it was all within his expectations.
Just then, Shrine Master Mu exploded in strength, annihilating the surrounding Yin Chens, and Tianming didn’t hear their conversation. However, soon, the Yin Chens in other places saw the appearance of Shrine Master Mu. Judging from the direction he was headed, he was likely leaving the Ninth District.
Tianming could easily guess that he was going to report his matter to the Antiquitas Mortis’ imperial family. “Sure enough, to take higher grade order fragments, you need to deal with high-level Xenoabyss families. The higher the level, the more impure they are.” It was the consequence that he had to bear in order to obtain the grade-four order fragments.
“So, the next search for me will be more terrifying. Fortunately, I didn’t expose my identity. But Zi Zhen is still in the Bloodtower Cult. If it isn’t handled quickly, the more passive I’ll be.”
He had reached the eleventh astral phase. After the breakthrough, Tianming stayed near the Bloodtower Cult, observing them day and night. Yin Chen said that Zi Zhen had completely calmed down, but when it talked to her, she wasn’t responsive. Her eyes were somewhat indifferent, as if she didn’t recognize it.
But Yin Chen told him that Zi Zhen seemed to be cultivating!
“If she can cultivate, it means she’s slowly regaining her consciousness.” This was the Xenoabyss, not the Sun, so Tianming didn’t expect to be able to break into the Bloodtower Cult and rescue Zi Zhen from the hands of two seventh-level cosmic cartographers and over a thousand cultists.
Therefore, her own strength was quite important.
In a few days, the Yin Chens on the edge of the Ninth District told Tianming that there was a big change outside the district and the entire capital was sealed off. The people were still unaware, but the activities of the officials were quite large scale.
