Chapter 920: Horse of War;Flawsof the Archaic Revealed!
Wei Wuyin unhesitatingly used as many War Souls that could be refined in the little time left! A little over 8,000 War Souls were used! Just 8,000! He had used 1,000 to help Ma Zheng ascend, reaching the 9th Runic Ascendant State. Albeit, that was mostly his own efforts and preparations realizing itself, and likely most of the War Souls excess was expelled or remained latent within him.
Wei Wuyin remembered that Worldly Saints of the Azure-Prime Galactic Zone would be moved by a hundred or so War Souls, willing to help one convert mortals to Spiritualism. The Peak-Earth Cultivation Method—War Soul, Triumphant World—cost 8,000 War Souls as well. It was hard to gauge the value of 8,000 War Souls, especially considering Wei Wuyin had gained over 13,000,000 War Souls after single-handedly defeating the Legion of War, but he knew it was an absurd amount.
And after seeing the results of refining 8,000, he was deeply excited at the future prospects of this upgradable War Talisman.
Wu Yu’s state was growing more abnormal. The whiteness of his eyes was overtaking his irises and pupils in a misty fashion, a sign of his Blood Origin Essence permeating throughout every corner of his body. Even Wu Yu himself was startled, giving his hands a shocked look.
Wei Wuyin gave the Soul Saint King a brief glance. He turned to Wu Yu, explaining: “You need to cultivate or else you might lose this chance forever; I’m sending you out.”
“…” There was a tense silence after those words were said. Sending you out? Was the Soul Saint King made of cardboard? Regardless of Wu Yu’s state, shouldn’t you ask if the Soul Saint King agreed?
Wu Yu’s expression grew serious as he inspected his Sea of Consciousness. There were all sorts of thoughts compounding in his mind and his body was trembling with a feeling of urgency. It originated from the panicked trembling of his Mystic Soul. This phenomenon solidified his belief in Wei Wuyin’s words! He needed to cultivate! He grew aghast.
What timing was this?
“Haha,” Wei Wuyin carefreely laughed. “Not an issue, do it.” Wei Wuyin grasped the Nexus War Flag and War Commander Zhan Zheng nodded grimly, giving off a strange feeling to everyone. The Soul Saint King crossed his arms against his chest, amused by this show.
He didn’t think this strange Earthly Saint or Wu Yu would be able to leave without his say-so. This was the confidence of harnessing the Mystic Ninestar Unity Array! It was a Multi-Link Array that was formed of nine individual Arrays, which was devised of countless formations drawing power from the nine Solar Stars of the starfield.
If he wanted, he could draw power from every single planet, Secret Realm, and World Realm linked to the Ninestar Sainthall’s reach. Even the Aeternal Sky Divine Emperor wouldn’t dare position himself at the heart of the Ninestar Starfield! While he didn’t have the spiritual strength to control 100% of the Mystic Ninestar Unity Array, as it was composed of three levels, he could harness the first level—Nine Star Unity—without an issue.
The nine vibrant nine Solar Stars was proof of this!
However, the next set of events was something no one anticipated!
The War Commander pressed his palm face-down, lifting his legs slightly in a strange manner, and his dragonhead helmet glowed slightly.
NEIGH!!!
A whinny sound that began explosively rumbled the world, before reaching a thrashing deep sound that settled the space! From beneath the War Commander, a skeletal warhorse, big and aggressive, manifested in simply the blink of a mortal’s eye! It was heavily armored, yet its bony limbs were thick and clearly seen. Every movement shook fixed space, and it had flaming hooves that burnt time, space, and the spirit.
Every spectator was shocked.
A skeletal warhorse?!
Yet the warhorse’s sudden arrival wasn’t the end. The skeletal warhorse’s flaming hooves lifted high into the air, the War Commander rode atop in an elegant fashion, holding onto the reins with tremendous skill and practice. With a wave of his hand, a black flag emerged in his hand attached to a spear with a blood-colored blade.
At the center of this flag was a large blood-red character for ‘War’ and it was proudly displayed.
“…!”
Zhan Zheng and the skeletal warhorse both released a heavy breath that formed a distinct unity, and they stabbed the flag into the ground. Suddenly, a pulsing force erupted that was faster than light itself. It was unstoppable! It kept going until it reached the borders of the entire Ninestar Starfield!
Fearful, the many Earthly Saints manifested their Mystic Wards. Some were capable of reacting fast enough, others were unable to do so! Fortunately, nothing seemed to happen after the pulse swept them! Only the nine stars dimmed a little, an almost imperceptible amount.
Zhan Zheng sent mentally, “You can send him out now.” His voice was incomparably calm as if the job he had set out to do was finished with one move!
Wei Wuyin was the only one that hadn’t been surprised, knowing Zhan Zheng had the means. With a wave of his hand, he executed the Void Portal Creation Art, enveloping Wu Yu who was still surprised by the skeletal warhorse and pulsing force. Without the restraints of the spatial restrictions, Wei Wuyin used most of his remaining power to send him away!
There was no resistance from Wu Yu, only gratefulness and understanding in his eyes.
In a blink, he vanished.
“…!” Everyone reeled at Wu Yu’s disappearance through a Void Portal. He actually sent him away! Right under the Soul Saint King’s nose! What type of treasure was used for this?! Was the Void Voyage Sect helping somehow?
Even the Soul Saint King was baffled and filled with internal questions, but then he suddenly felt something was off. He waved his hand a little. His lime-green eyes immediately widened after. “What did you do?!” The Soul Saint King threateningly stared at the skeletal warhorse and flag with a slightly unsightly expression. He found that his control over the Mystic Ninestar Unity Array had been disconnected!
Wei Wuyin took the lead here, “Evening the playing field.”
Yet after saying this, the 1,000 Spirits of War flew behind Zhan Zheng in an exquisite formation in a practiced fashion, as if this had been performed a million times before!
For the first time, the War Commander decided to speak to the Soul Saint King: “Large-scaled Geographical Arrays directed by a singular entity are the most unreliable in war.” It was as if he was giving the Soul Saint King advice, but there was a serene disdain laced in his voice. At the end, he couldn’t help but softly spit out: “Archaic.”
Wei Wuyin felt his heart shaking from those words. Because he felt this to be the absolute truth from long ago! After all, he had invaded and seized control of geographical arrays controlled by a single person quite a few times to his advantage! This could never happen to his Dragons of Origins, using solely his own power to its greatest unified extent!
It seems the Soul Saint King was about to learn an extremely brutal lesson!
