Chapter 856: After Modification -754 Trap

Ling Weiyang’s hypothesis was that the true form of the Pioneer was actually hidden inside the Heavenly Stele, which meant that all the doppelgangers everyone had seen were created by the Pioneer. Therefore, he set his sights on the Heavenly Stele. Similarly, about a dozen points of starlight flashed, and each point revealed a Ling Weiyang wielding the Demon Emperor Halberd charging forth. Most of them surged toward the Pioneer, but there was one Ling Weiyang who bypassed the Pioneer’s blind spot and headed straight for the Heavenly Stele above his head. Almost the same as before, the Pioneer was once again pierced by a dozen Ling Weiyangs with the Demon Emperor Halberd, while another Ling Weiyang struck the Heavenly Stele with a single halberd.

Then, all the Ling Weiyangs attacking the Pioneer vanished, and the slain Pioneer also gradually disappeared. Only Ling Weiyang and the nine rotating World Suppressing Steles were left, but at this time, the World Suppressing Steles had stopped rotating and were merely floating in mid-air. Looking around, the Pioneer did not appear again. Ling Weiyang thought to himself: succeeded? Sure enough, after he attacked the Heavenly Stele, no new Pioneers appeared, which meant that his guess was correct. The next step was to figure out a way to force the real Pioneer out of the Heavenly Stele.

The battle between Ling Weiyang and the Pioneer was not easy at all. The Pioneer was undoubtedly the most powerful enemy Ling Weiyang had ever encountered. To defeat him, Ling Weiyang had to exhaust his brain power and use his full strength; otherwise, it would very likely be he who would be defeated. The Pioneer was one of the only two people in this universe who had touched Eternity, far beyond those he had encountered before. Although he knew the Pioneer was hiding in the World Suppressing Stele, the stele was the hardest substance in the universe, and even his Demon Emperor Halberd could hardly scratch it, so forcing the Pioneer inside out was extremely difficult.

After successive strikes, not even a trace was left on the Heavenly Stele, and instead, Ling Weiyang’s own hands were numb from the shock. He stopped and looked at the Heavenly Stele with some frustration, having to admit that the World Suppressing Stele was indeed the strongest defense, and hiding inside meant no one could harm him unless the stele was destroyed. However, it wasn’t completely impossible. Since he couldn’t use brute force, he would try another method. Retracting the Demon Emperor Halberd, Ling Weiyang roared towards the sky, transforming directly into his true form, a seven or eight-meter-tall Purple Gold Stars Kirin.

He immediately breathed out a blast of Kirin True Fire. Ling Weiyang’s plan was simple: use Kirin True Fire imbued with the Power of the Stars to calcine the World Suppressing Stele. While this wouldn’t destroy the stele in a short time, the Power of the Stars within the Kirin True Fire could slowly penetrate inside, thereby disintegrating the stele from within. Thus, no matter how tough it was, the World Suppressing Stele would eventually collapse. Ling Weiyang had thought of this move long ago but had never used it due to not having the powerful Power of the Stars he had now. The idea originated from his attempt to smelt the Hidden Realm’s Demon Transcending No.6 World Suppressing Stele into the Purple Gold Halberd.

Soon, Ling Weiyang felt the Power of the Stars within the Kirin True Fire continuously pouring into the Heavenly Stele. Delighted, he thought, it’s working. His plan was indeed feasible. Subsequently, Ling Weiyang increased the output of the Power of the Stars while continuously absorbing the Power of the Stars from the surrounding space. Thus, what should have been a grand battle turned into this bizarre scene. Anyone unaware might think Ling Weiyang was crafting some Magic Treasure. While Ling Weiyang focused on calcining the World Suppressing Stele with Kirin True Fire, far away in a cave, the Dragon Ancestor died!

The injuries on the Dragon Ancestor were not fatal originally, as the Pioneer intended to torture him, causing only his arms to melt, and rendering his legs useless, but his life was not at risk. Yet shortly after Ling Weiyang used the Power of the Stars to teleport them all to this cave, the Dragon Ancestor suddenly suffered broken meridians all over and died in extreme pain. His death was so sudden that many did not understand how it happened. It was Zhibei who saw the clue and told everyone that the Dragon Ancestor’s sudden death was due to the Pioneer planting Formless Fire and Ultimate Water Ice inside him earlier. The former burned the Dragon Ancestor’s heart with fire, while the latter froze his blood, freezing all the fluids in his organs and muscles. However, the Dragon Race forcibly melted the Ultimate Water Ice with Formless Fire, freeing the Dragon Ancestor but nearly costing his life.

The principle was simple, like a red-hot stone abruptly meeting the Ultimate Ice Water, resulting only in the stone shattering into pieces, which was not an accident but rather the Pioneer’s calculated scheme. He knew the Dragon Ancestor would die, thus didn’t rush to kill him, instead letting him suffer greater pain before death.

As the Pioneer had calculated, the Dragon Ancestor indeed endured immense suffering before his last breath faded. When his last breath vanished, his body suddenly transformed into a stream of black-gold light. Just as the others were bewildered, the light shot into the sky and directly entered Ling Weiyang, who was still calcining the World Suppressing Stele. The black-gold light entered him, causing his whole body to shake, and two tears silently slid down his cheeks. Who could have thought that the ruthless and cunning Ling Weiyang, who regarded human life as if it were nothing, could cry!

The Dragon Ancestor’s death further fueled Ling Weiyang’s determination to kill the Pioneer, urging him to increase the output of the Power of the Stars. As Ling Weiyang injected almost two-thirds of the Power of the Stars around him into the Heavenly Stele, he suddenly stopped, sensing something was wrong. He had once calculated with the help of Xi Zhao’s Destruction No.1 World Suppressing Stele that if he wanted to use the Power of the Stars to disintegrate the World Suppressing Stele from within, it would take ten of him with the Power of the Stars after the first Evolution.

Now, having received all the elder Kirin’s Power of the Stars and completed the third Evolution, his Power of the Stars had reached a peak, yet using two-thirds of it had no effect on the Heavenly Stele. This was definitely abnormal. Either his idea was wrong, or the Pioneer had secretly tampered with the Heavenly Stele.

Ling Weiyang immediately stopped the Kirin True Fire and swiftly retreated, crossing his hands and shouting, “Nine Heavens Stars, Fall!” With his words, nine stars in the endless Void were suddenly drawn by his power, quickly descending towards the Fallen Tomb, shrinking rapidly in the process. By the time they reached the Fallen Tomb, they had shrunk to the size of fists. The nine stars then fell onto the nine World Suppressing Steles.

The fist-sized stars seemed to carry the weight of a thousand pounds, directly pressing the nine World Suppressing Steles down. With a thunderous boom, the nine World Suppressing Steles hit the ground, and above each stele floated a star about the size of a palm.

After the World Suppressing Steles fell to the ground, the Pioneer’s voice suddenly echoed. The voice was ethereal, and Ling Weiyang couldn’t determine its source.

“Not bad, you finally discovered the problem. If you hadn’t, I would have misjudged you. I don’t want a splendid battle to turn into a one-sided massacre; that would be too boring. But now, with most of the Dragon Ancestor’s power and your Power of the Stars, I can significantly enhance my strength.” Ling Weiyang now understood what had happened.

“Damn it, I actually fell into a trap!”

As it turned out, everything was the Pioneer’s plot from the beginning, from his battle with the Dragon Ancestor until now, everything had been within the Pioneer’s calculations. Unknowingly, Ling Weiyang had stepped into the Pioneer’s trap, until he foolishly gave two-thirds of the Power of the Stars to the Pioneer! (To be continued.
