Chapter 810: 810

Chapter 810: Where is Great Void?

It was so quiet in the room that after a prolonged time, one would have auditory hallucinations in the form of buzzing noises.

After Yu Chenshu greeted her, he felt ill at ease. He did like the silence. However, he knew the person lying on the bed with lifeless eyes, Luo Xuan, liked silence. When he could no longer endure the silence, he called out, “Luo Xuan.”

Luo Xuan did not reply. She seemed to be in a daze, as though her soul had been stripped from her body. Her lifeless eyes were unfocused as though she could not see. Similarly, she seemed as though she could not hear at all.

Yu Chenshu sat on the edge of the bed. He sighed heavily. “Stop acting. I know you hate me for telling the world that you’re a lunatic. But… your research was truly too crazy. That’s the only way to maintain the peace.” After sighing again, he continued to say, “Do you know? I feel much worse than you in regard to this matter. Nobody in the world knows you better than I do. You’re so kind, so smart, but I had to do that. Can… can you understand?”

He continued to ramble on, “Forget it. I won’t hope for you to understand. It’s been 300 years, and your statements are being verified one by one… Everyone’s starting to doubt what we did in the past, if we had wronged you… Although it’s laughable, it’s the truth. By the way… The Sky Shuttle, the Water Shuttle, and flying chariots are now a reality.”

Yu Chenshu was usually taciturn, and the default expression on his face was a stern and serious one. However, in front of Luo Xuan, he talked non-stop.

After a moment, Yu Chenshu finally stopped talking. He looked at Luo Xuan who was lying on the bed intently, trying to see if there was even the smallest hint of joy or excitement in her eyes. Unfortunately, no emotions could be seen at all. His smile stiffened before it gradually disappeared, and his expression returned to his default stern expression. In fact, his expression seemed a little dark.

His eyebrows were slightly knitted together as he said, “Stop pretending. It has been verified that there are foreign worlds. You’re like Jiang Wenxu. Both of you went to the golden lotus domain more than 300 years ago. However, the golden lotus domain has now become our greatest enemy. The Sky Martial Court can do without you. It’s meaningless for you to keep up this act.”

He rose to his feet with his hands on his back as he continued to say, “It’s highly possible that the opponent has initiated his Birth Chart. You’ve researched it for many years. How are we supposed to initiate Birth Charts?”

He suddenly turned around; his eyes were wide with rage as he asked, “How are we supposed to kill a cultivator who has initiated his Birth Chart?!”

On the bed, Luo Xuan’s eyes were still lifeless like before. She was just like a living shell with no soul.

Luo Xuan’s apathy infuriated Yu Chenshu. He suddenly extended his arm and launched a red palm seal toward her.

The palm seal hit the base of the bed.

And yet, Luo Xuan did not even flinch or blink her eyes; she remained unresponsive. Her breathing and her heartbeats were the only indications that she was alive. Otherwise, she seemed no different from a dead person.

Yu Chenshu quickly retracted his hand, immediately regretting his actions, After a fleeting moment of feeling guilty, he gradually calmed down. However, it did not take long before he worked himself up again. His eyes were bloodshot as he said angrily, “Luo Xuan, you were the one who broke the restriction of heaven and earth. That’s why you have to get up and solve this problem! Tell me! Where’s Great Void?! Where did you hide the Great Void seeds?!”

The aloof and insufferably arrogant Sky Martial Court’s Master seemed like a petty man now. Who could have expected this?

Alas, Luo Xuan remained unresponsive.

Yu Chenshu shook his head. He raised his hand, and the stone door behind him slid open.

The disciple with the lamp who followed Yu Chenshu here entered the room.

Yu Chenshu, who had already regained his composure, placed his hands on his back and said, “What’s Luo Xuan’s condition like right now?”

“We’ve had a female physician examine her. Her soul might be dispersed,” the disciple replied.

“Dispersed soul?”

“People with dispersed souls are incapable of communication. They don’t have memories or thoughts, even worse than animals. She’s basically a… a living shell now.”

Yu Chenshu frowned slightly upon hearing this. “Look after her. She must be cured no matter what.”

“Understood.”

Yu Chenshu left the stone room with his hands on his back. Through the narrow and dark tunnel, he returned to the dark and smelly underground prison.

“Heheh… What a familiar stench. Lord Court Master… How I miss you…”

“Come here, Lord Court Master… It’s been several hundred years, and yet, you’re still so smelly….”

Nobody knew there were many experts imprisoned under the Sky Martial Court. These experts were labeled as devils, lunatics, and freak shows among others.

Usually, Yu Chenshu would not take these words to heart. However, he was in a terrible mood today. He abruptly came to a stop when he was at the center of the room. He looked up and said frostily, “Looks like I should teach all of you another lesson.”

“Don’t… Don’t hit me… Lord Court Master, do you want the Great Void Seed? I can tell you… Come here… come here…”

Clang!

The sounds of chains rang in the darkness again. It was obvious from the sounds that the prisoners were being restricted by iron chains.

Yu Chenshu suddenly spread his arms as dark red energy flew to the sides.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Shortly after, miserable cries rang in the darkness. A burst of mocking laughter could be heard among the cries as well.

“This is all you can do… Do you dare to free us and fight fairly? You coward, you’d never dare to do it… You think of going to Great Void like this? Dream on! Luo Xuan is a genius! You can never compare to her!”

Yu Chenshu said with a cold expression, “Sorry to disappoint you, but I’ve brought Luo Xuan’s conceptions to life.”

“Impossible! Don’t even think of trying to fool us! Yu Chenshu… Don’t go! Don’t go…”

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of someone struggling against the iron chains rang in the darkness.

Yu Chenshu ignored it and left the prison.

…

Three days later, in the silent rock forest.

After recuperating for three days, Yu Shangrong’s injuries were half-healed. Much of his Primal Qi had been restored as well.

When he opened his eyes, the sun was high up in the sky Fortunately, the tall trees in the distance blocked out some of the sunlight and created many shaded places.

Yu Shangrong turned around to look at Ji Liang who was sitting nearby.

Ji Liang neighed.

Yu Shangrong raised his hand.

The broken Longevity Sword flew into his hand.

Under his control, the broken sword then flew out of the rock forest. When the broken sword was about to leave the rock forest, the rocks gathered and formed a huge net that barred the sword’s path.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

The Longevity Sword dropped to the ground after hitting the rocks.

“Hm?” Yu Shangrong tried again.

The broken sword took flight.

Energy swords appeared.

He formed dozens of energy swords to help the broken sword as it flew outward. When it was at the edge of the rock forest, the obstacle formed by the rocks blocked it again.

“How should I break this rock forest’s Formation?”

Yu Shangrong retrieved his Longevity Sword and returned to the glowing center of the Formation veins.

There was a round rock slab in the middle. The inscriptions on it were clearly made by human hands.

If what Jiang Xiaosheng said was true, that this Formation was left behind by the predecessors and was preserved until this day, things would be difficult.

Yu Shangrong struck the ground with a palm seal.

Bam!

The Formation vein released a wisp of power that swiftly vanished.

He could not break this by force. He looked up to search for another way out. He leaped onto Ji Liang and flew around the rock forest.

Whenever he was at the edge of the rock forest, the rocks would shine before gathering to block his way.

Yu Shangrong gave every rock pillar a taste of his palm seals. Yet, the rock forest remained firm.

While Yu Shangrong was attempting to leave, many winged beasts had flown into the rock forest as well, trapping themselves.

He paced inside the Formation as he mulled over the matter. “Every Formation has a weak point that can be used to break through… Since the rock forest forms the grand Formation by connecting to each other, does this mean I can leave this place if I break the connection?”

‘Let’s give it a try.’

Yu Shangrong released his broken sword again.

Energy swords appeared.

It split into two and multiplied to eight.

When the broken sword shot out, the energy lines shone and gathered.

With swift movements and sharp eyes, Yu Shangrong interrupted the energy lines with his energy swords.

Bam! Bam! Bam!

His energy swords managed to block some of the energy lines from converging. Unfortunately, some of the other rock pillars still managed to connect.

“Do I need more energy swords?” Yu Shangrong wondered. He seemed to have realized the crucial point.

There were 361 pillars, and a line would form between two of them. If he wanted to block them all, he would need 360 energy swords for each rock pillar. How was he supposed to pull that off?

He thought long and hard about it before a faint smile appeared on his face as he murmured to himself, “Perhaps, the predecessors want me to master the son of heaven’s sword here.”

With that, he sat down and crossed his legs.

The broken sword hovered before him.

“Primal Restoration.”

Golden energy swords materialized around him and flew toward the 361 rock pillars.

The energy swords shot into the surroundings like a tidal wave.

When the heavenly net appeared, Yu Shangrong suddenly launched himself at it. He joined his palms together and Primal Qi rippled out from between his palms.

Whizz!
