“What is that sound?!”
“Who is talking!”
“Was it an illusion? I think I heard a voice from within the cauldron!”
All the Nine Pinnacles Mountain disciples seemed to be taken aback, and their facial expressions turned pale immediately.
Afterall, what is more horrific than a voice emitting from within the Middle Stream Cauldron after 49 days?
“Who is that!” Sixth Elder opened his mouth immediately. As the host who had been guarding beside the cauldron, he naturally would not believe that there would be someone alive in it, and he would not believe such a situation.
More importantly, everything was going according to his plan. He just had to wait for the remaining Elders to return back to Nine Pinnacles Mountain, before triggering a fight among the two sides. Nine Pinnacles Mountain would then be unable to escape the grasp of Yin Yang Hall.
As such, he could not allow such an accident to happen.
Astounded!
Be it Sixth Elder, or Great Elder Ying Yu or the rest of the disciples, nobody dared to believe what they had heard.
However, a shimmering golden ray of light rushed out from within the Middle Stream Cauldron, just like a golden pillar extending towards the clouds.
The beautiful horizon was instantly dyed in gold, and the golden colour seemed to overpower the light emitting from the sun. The entire horizon seemed to be burning.
An imposing atmosphere radiated out from the Middle Stream Cauldron, and it seemed to be getting stronger. Sixth Elder took a step back inadvertently.
“What’s happening?!” Sixth Elder was dumbfounded.
The remaining disciples opened their eyes wide in disbelief upon seeing the phenomenon. Afterall, they could feel the change in atmosphere too.
“Not good, sealed it back, quickly!” Great Elder Ying Yu reacted immediately. He did not know what had happened, but he made the decision quickly.
What a pity.....
He was too late!
Just when after Great Elder had spoken, the Middle Stream Cauldron shuddered vigorously.
“Hong long!” A loud sound reverberated in the air.
The Middle Stream Cauldron, which was erected in the centre of the nine black cauldrons, suddenly collapsed. Just at this moment, a ray of light shot out from the Middle Stream Cauldron.
The ray of light wrapped around the silver and purple flames.
It was swift!
In just in a blink of an eye, it had reached midair.
Great Elder’s and Sixth Elder’s expressions changed completely, as they knew that those were the flames that they had used to refine the herb.
“Finally I’m out.....” A voice could be heard amidst the light. Just then, the two flames disappeared, but a half-naked figure appeared in midair. His upper clothes were destroyed completely, revealing a lean and muscular body.
Countless tiny golden symbols circulated around his body, integrating into his blood stream. His eyes was radiating rays of golden light too.
However, his body was wrapped in chains, and it was obvious that the person was Fang Zhengzhi.
“Not dead!!!”
“He’s really not dead!”
“How can it be? How can he not die!”
If the disciples were feeling bewildered just now, then at this moment, they were unable to control their emotions any further.
No amount of words could describe their feelings. A ghost in the middle of the day? No! Even if they had seen a ghost in midday, the wouldn’t have reacted to such an extent.
“Hong Long!” At this moment, a loud sound could be heard from the golden horizon, and there was a hole among the clouds.
There was no lightning, but countless rays of colourful light shone down from the horizon.
Red, blue, golden, silver, green.....
Different shades of colours rained down from the clouds, before integrating into the golden pillar that extended into the horizon.
“What is happening?”
“The occurrence! Is this the unique occurrence?”
“The pill is yet to be completed, and Fang Zhengzhi has yet to die, what is there such an occurrence?!”
The disciples’ eyes were rolling wide in disbelief, and they seemed to have forgotten their identities. They seemed to be completely engrossed in the various rays of light.
There were unable to imagine what such a sight seemed to symbolise.
Even Great Elder Ying Yu had the same reaction, as he has never experienced such a phenomenon before in all his years.
“Thousand rays of light, is he not.....” Great Elder Ying Yu did not continue his words, as he could not imagine the following consequences that would soon follow after.
“How is he still alive? 49 days, how can he survive?!” Sixth Elder’s eyes widened, as his face turned as pale as ever. He was unable to accept such a sight, and was even more reluctant to believe that Fang Zhengzhi was still alive.
But the fact was that he was still alive, and he seemed to be doing fine. Other than his destroyed clothes, and the chains which were still wrapped around his body, he seemed to be in a pathetic condition, but his body was void of any other injuries.
Furthermore, the light from the golden pillar seemed to be gushing towards his body.
In an instant, Fang Zhengzhi’s body resembled a gigantic black hole, absorbing the rays of light, before integrating into his body.
“Ah!!!” Fang Zhengzhi emitted a howling sound, and it sounded painful, yet excited at the same time. Different colours were circulating around within his eyes.
Red, yellow, blue, green.....
Furthermore, the golden symbols around his body seemed to have evolved into countless stars, gathering towards his chest.
At this moment, it was like the horizon contained two suns!
One of them was the sun which had just rose into the sky, and the other was Fang Zhengzhi’s chest.
“Not good, quickly kill him, quick! His body is evolving!” Sixth Elder’s face became paler, and his lips quivered uncontrollably.
“Body evolving?!”
“Is Fang Zhengzhi going to.....”
“Oh my, how can this be, even if he’s not dead, he cannot.....no, this is impossible!”
The Nine Pinnacles Mountain disciples could not believe the situation, but it was a fact that Fang Zhengzhi’s body seemed to be evolving.
“Die!” Great Elder Ying Yu looked at the rays on Fang Zhengzhi’s chest, and there was a cold tension that flashed across his eyes.
Because, he knew that if he did not use the opportunity to kill Fang Zhengzhi when he was chained up, there was probably no second chance to do so anymore.
As such, a long silver spear instantly appeared in his hand, with a silver ball of flame burning at the tip of the spear.
Next, Great Elder arched his body, resembling a pulled bow, as his waist was bent to the maximum.
“Sou!” A loud sound erupted in the air.
The long silver spear resembled a lightning snake, as it charged towards Fang Zhengzhi’s chest in an abnormal speed.
“He is still bound by the chains, kill him!” The other four Nine Pinnacles Mountain Elders realised Great Elder’s intentions, and revealed their weapons immediately.
An enormous amount of energy emitted from the four Elders.
And at this moment, the long silver spear had reached Fang Zhengzhi’s chest. It’s pointy edge was merely a finger’s length away from his heart.
However, what was weird was that.....
It stopped advancing!
It was as if time had stopped.
Next, Fang Zhengzhi’s hands moved slowly.
“Kacha!” There was a soft sound.
A crack appeared in the black chains that surrounded his body. Then, Fang Zhengzhi’s right hand extended from the crack slowly, as he grabbed onto the long silver spear.
It was a slow scene.
However, it felt shuddering.
Everyone’s eyes were wide in disbelief, as they looked at the long silver spear, which was grabbed by Fang Zhengzhi’s hand.
Then, Fang Zhengzhi’s mouth slowly broke into a smile, before the chains broke off completely.
“Hong Long!”
“Hong Long!”
“.....”
Broken segments of the chains dropped from the sky and shattered on the ground, emitting trembling sounds.
“So I was tied up?” A calm sound came out from Fang Zhengzhi’s mouth, just as the glow in his chest disappeared.
Everything seemed to be restored to peace, as the rays of light in the horizon disappeared as well, leaving Fang Zhengzhi’s voice echoing through the valleys.
However, everyone seemed to be inadvertently taking a step back, and their facial expressions revealed the horrors in their hearts.
“He..... He managed to get away from the chains?!”
“And, he only used one hand to grab Great Elder’s spear!”
“He really..... really became a Sage!”
Be it the hundreds of Nine Pinnacles Mountain disciples, or the four Elders who were brandishing their weapons, they were all dumbfounded by the phenomenon.
Because the black chains surrounding Fang Zhengzhi’s body could not be broken off even by the average Sage. Furthermore, Fang Zhengzhi was able to withstand Great Elder Ying Yu’s attack while he was breaking off the chain, and he merely used one hand. Such a sight continue to dangle in their memories.
“Today’s weather is not too bad. The sun is bright, the birds are chirping, the flowers smell great, what do you guys think?” Fang Zhengzhi looked at the silent crowd, as he raised his head towards the sun, and waved the long silver spear around in his hand.
“Fang Zhengzhi, don’t you dare be too insolent. Even if you’re still alive, you cannot leave. Do you think by just being a half-witted Sage, you’re able to challenge Nine Pinnacles Mountain? You have underestimated the strength of the Five Sects in the Holy Region!” Sixth Elder’s voice could be heard.
“I underestimate the strength of the Five Sects? No no no, you’re wrong, I did not underestimate the Five Sects, because I have never even estimated them before!” Fang Zhengzhi shook his head with an innocent look on his face.
“You..... You little punk, you’re asking for death!” Sixth Elder was taken aback, but he quickly reacted. His face was flushed red, and his eyes were vexed. However, he did not rush up immediately, and merely gazed at Great Elder Ying Yu, “Leader Ying, you cannot let him leave Nine Pinnacles Mountain, or else.....”
“Sixth Elder do not worry, he will not leave. Get ready!” Great Elder Ying Yu did not wait for Sixth Elder to finish his sentence, as he would never allow him to leave, even if Sixth Elder did not complete his sentence.
Afterall, Nine Pinnacles Mountain’s hatred for Fang Zhengzhi was greatly entrenched, and it was impossible for them to show mercy or be afraid of him.
“Yes!” The hundreds of disciples started moving upon hearing his orders, as they knew that a battle was inevitable.
Moreover, it was Nine Pinnacles Mountain!
While there were a few Elders who were away, there was still the new Nine Pinnacles Mountain Leader, as well as the four remaining Elders, and Sixth Elder from Yin Yang Hall.
Six Elders, combined with four disciples who were in the Sage State too, as well as the hundreds of disciples in Nine Pinnacles Mountain.
It would be a joke if this combined strength would not suffice to retain Fang Zhengzhi, who had yet to enter the Sage State completely.
“Seems like, I have to kill now!” Fang Zhengzhi’s mouth moved, as he looked up at the sun once again. Then, his body started moving.
“Hong Long!” A loud sound erupted.
Fang Zhengzhi’s body landed on the ground, and he was a step’s distance away from Sixth Elder and Great Elder Ying Yu. At this moment, a crack appeared on the ground where he landed.
“What?!”
“So fast!”
“That was Nine Pinnacles Mountain’s gigantic rock. It had undergone thousands of years of hardening from the larva, and it is as hard as ever. He is able to..... able to create a crack in it?!”
Such a sight resulted in the disciples to widen their eyes once again, and they stood motionless on the ground.
Of course, other than the hundreds of disciples, there were two men who stood rooted on the ground too. They were Great Elder Ying Yu and Sixth Elder.
Such a landing inadvertently caused Great Elder Ying Yu, who was usually extremely calm, to feel anxious.
