Chapter 326 - 311: Battle in the Conference Hall
CHAPTER 326: CHAPTER 311: BATTLE IN THE CONFERENCE HALL
Heaven-Reaching Pavilion Fixed Point.
At this moment, in the vast conference hall, individuals exuding powerful auras sat solemnly around the round table, brows furrowed with an air of distress. Each person was lost in thought, the atmosphere tense and stagnant.
Every person present hailed from the three major forces and the power of the Immortal Cosmic Country, geniuses with the strength of the Celestial God Realm despite their Demigod Chaos Realm standings, envied by all.
Yet now, these once-proud prodigies had become silent and contemplative, no longer displaying their usual arrogance and dominance.
Clearly, they faced an unprecedented major problem, one of critical importance.
"It’s been six days. Does anyone have any leads?" A man in a yellow robe sitting at the head of the table broke the silence.
The atmosphere was disrupted, yet only faint sighs and silent shaking of heads answered him.
A thin man in a red robe sitting nearby opened his eyes: "There’s a conclusion."
"I just investigated the teleportation arrays everywhere and found a common point—every end of the teleportation arrays had been erased by the same means." The red-robed man spoke sternly, "It’s evidently the work of someone deliberately tampering, likely a hidden force."
Each genius present came from the top forces in the cosmos, indicating that those who acted were not among these top forces but rather a force hiding in the shadows.
"Bang!" A burly man slammed the table hard, causing the round table to shatter instantly. His rage boiled over, a fearsome presence, "Damn it! If I find out who did it, I’ll never let them off!"
"Yue Silver, is there anything else you can do besides getting angry? You haven’t come up with any solutions for days, yet you’ve broken five tables," a short bald man sneered.
"Speaking of Yue Silver’s temper, Du Shi, have you looked at your chair? It’s been scratched beyond recognition," a woman with four hands and four eyes laughed from across the small bald man.
"Feng Qi, I think a fruit bowl face painting would suit you nicely."
"Bring it on if you dare!"
The two glared provocatively at each other, exchanging harsh words, neither willing to back down. The burly Yue Silver joined in, and the three argued incessantly.
"Everyone shut up." A faint voice resonated. In the corner, a handsome young man in a golden-embroidered long robe rested his chin on his hands, coldly glancing at everyone present. No one dared meet his gaze. "Do not express your emotions in my presence, or... I’ll make you understand mine."
The moment the handsome young man spoke, all three fell silent, evidently wary of him.
"Lu Ya." The handsome young man turned to the man in the yellow robe beside him, "Any feasible solutions?"
This man in the yellow robe was the strongest disciple of the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, Lu Ya.
Lu Ya had just recently returned to the fixed point, having been trapped in a Forbidden Area for the past twenty-five thousand years, almost losing his life. Fortunately, he narrowly escaped, surviving to return.
Everyone took note that Lu Ya’s strength, which originally rivaled the top Initial Celestial Gods, had surged significantly. His life aura had increased greatly, likely reaching the Peak Initial Celestial God.
"There’s no clue." Lu Ya shook his head. "I’ve considered many options. The only feasible one is finding a Divine Treasure-level flying treasure to use void wormholes to leave the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos. But I’ve had people inquire about this, and throughout the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos, there isn’t even an Immortal Divine Weapon-level flying treasure, let alone a Divine Treasure-level one."
A Divine Treasure-level flying treasure, fast enough and forming a protective shield to guard them against temporal storms, was non-existent in the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos.
"This method isn’t feasible. The Cosmic Law strictly forbids leaking any external information and prevents any Wu Meng beings from leaving the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos. A flying treasure capable of traversing void wormholes offers Wu Meng beings the chance to leave the Sacred Cosmos, an opportunity the Cosmic Law surely wouldn’t overlook," the handsome young man said sternly.
"Indeed, I discovered that the internal space or Divine Country within the Wu Meng Warriors is evidently suppressed and cannot expand fully, showing the tremendous secrecy the Cosmic Law enforces," the thin red-robed man added.
Once again, silence enveloped them, brows furrowed tightly.
With the teleportation arrays erased, they had no way to leave, no access to any external information, completely unaware of the circumstances, trapped within this Inner Cosmos, becoming part of the countless Wu Meng Warriors unable to leave the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos.
Then, the door of the conference hall was knocked on.
"Senior Brother Lu Ya, there are two Heaven-Reaching Pavilion disciples wishing to see you outside," called a voice from outside.
"Let them in," Senior Brother Lu Ya said.
A moment later, the door opened, and two figures, one in black and one in white, stepped into the conference hall.
"Wang Xu, Lu Chen, what brings you two to me?" Senior Brother Lu Ya, possessing Celestial God-level memory, never forgot a name from the list of Heaven-Reaching Pavilion disciples.
"I want to know the whole story about this situation, how the teleportation array was erased, and the current status..." Wang Xu had only just started speaking.
"Bang!" With a loud crash, the ground, covered in shattered wood, instantly caved in, and a surging aura spread out.
"Who do you think you are, daring to shout here? Get out of here immediately!" The speaker was none other than the burly man, Yue Silver. He was already quite displeased, but due to the pressure from the handsome young man, he had slightly restrained himself. Now, Wang Xu’s words reignited his anger, and he shouted loudly.
Everyone present was a representative from various major forces. For instance, the handsome young man, named "Kua Sou," was one of the strong contenders for the "Polar Throne" in the Mixed Cosmos Polar Region of the Cosmic Alliance. Although his realm was just the Demigod Chaos Realm, his true strength had already reached the Peak Initial Celestial God Realm. Among the many geniuses of the Wu Meng Sacred Cosmos, he was undoubtedly the number one.
In contrast, Wang Xu’s strength, though reaching the Celestial God Realm, was merely that of an Ordinary Initial Celestial God, having no qualifications to sit in any position. His questioning tone upon entering made Yue Silver extremely displeased.
Not only Yue Silver, but other genius figures present also eyed him coldly. Everyone here had true strength at least above the Elite Initial Celestial God level. Wang Xu had no right to speak, but they didn’t have Yue Silver’s explosive temper, focusing instead on Senior Brother Lu Ya.
"Wang Xu, that’s enough, please leave for now. We will discuss this later," Senior Brother Lu Ya said when he saw Wang Xu had already incited public anger. Although they both belonged to the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, it was impossible to speak up for him under such circumstances, so he could only mediate.
"Sorry, Senior Brother Lu Ya, I know my words were impulsive, but I hope you can understand. I just learned about the erasure of the teleportation array and only wish to know more details, nothing more." Facing the cold stares and Yue Silver’s reprimand, Wang Xu remained calm.
"Kid, didn’t you hear what I said? Get out of here immediately!" Yue Silver jumped to his feet, more displeased with Wang Xu, unleashing a surging aura aimed at overwhelming Wang Xu.
"Hmph! Asking him to leave? Who the hell are you?"
At this moment, Senior Brother Lu Chen couldn’t bear it any longer and stood up.
A powerful aura, enough to rival the Peak Initial Celestial God, burst forth, reflecting all of Yue Silver’s unleashed aura back, shocking Yue Silver to take two steps back, his eyes showing astonishment.
"Kid, relying on others to stand up for you, what skill is that? If you’re capable, let’s fight one-on-one!" Yue Silver said defiantly to Wang Xu.
The crowd shook their heads at this remark, as Yue Silver’s words were completely unnecessary. How could someone with less strength than you possibly fight you one-on-one without bringing disgrace upon themselves?
However, unexpectedly, Wang Xu gestured to Senior Brother Lu Chen not to intervene, then stepped forward, looking at Yue Silver, and said:
"Fine, I’ll fight you."
Hearing this, Yue Silver’s face turned vicious, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes. Hmph, you’re just a reckless kid who can’t take the provocation. You think you can fight me? Looking for death!
Yet, before Yue Silver could utter another harsh word, there was a "Bang" sound, and Yue Silver’s body was like a cannonball, crashing through the wall and flying backward.
"You... Cosmic Spirit God! Damn it!" Yue Silver had a Supreme Defense Treasure, which reduced most of the force; his body was knocked back, but he wasn’t severely injured.
In Yue Silver’s hands appeared two Thunder Giant Hammers, exuding a divine aura, with these two Divine Treasures, even the void seemed to twist invisibly, as he swung the hammers, angrily smashing towards Wang Xu!
"It seems the lesson wasn’t enough for you. This time, I’ll let you feel it thoroughly!" With a thought, Wang Xu manifested two more sword body fragments, adding to the previous one, and sent the three sword body fragments charging toward Yue Silver!
This time, Yue Silver was prepared and had already detected the three sword body fragments. Without hesitation, he swung the Thunder Giant Hammer to smash towards the three sword body fragments.
"So what if you’re a Cosmic Spirit God? I’ll show you the difference between an Ordinary Initial Celestial God and an Elite Initial Celestial God!"
Bang!
A loud explosion echoed, the three sword body fragments quivering and flying back, while Yue Silver stepped back several steps, feeling his arms go numb.
The crowd watching nodded silently, starting to change their view of Wang Xu.
"Hmph! Let’s see how long your Spiritual Consciousness can last!" Unwilling to admit defeat, Yue Silver charged again, ready for a prolonged fight. Indeed, facing the mysterious and unpredictable Spiritual Consciousness attack of the Cosmic Spirit God, one had to either overpower him with superior strength or engage in a battle of attrition to slowly deplete the Cosmic Spirit God’s Spiritual Consciousness.
Compared to Cosmic Energy, Spiritual Consciousness is much more exhausting. If the Cosmic Spirit God cannot quickly resolve the battle, it will become a very passive situation.
"Seems three sword body fragments are not enough, let’s add two more." Wang Xu was unfazed, and with a thought, two more sword body fragments were forged, making five sword body fragments charging towards Yue Silver!
Bang!
Another violent collision, Yue Silver could no longer withstand such terrifying power, and his body flew backward once again.
The eyes of the many geniuses brightened. This was the true strength of the Cosmic Spirit God? Indeed, very powerful! (To be continued.
