Chapter 1354: Chapter 591: Xuandu of the Supreme Sect Delivers a Message!_2
Three hundred and sixty-five main banners as bone, fourteen thousand eight hundred auxiliary banners as flesh.
A vast, boundless embryonic starry sky slowly unfolded within the great hall.
Billions of stars flickered, star rivers reversed their flow, and a terrifying aura enough to suppress time and space and grind all things to dust spread out.
"It’s done!"
Zhao Feng rose to his full height, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.
Feeling the Celestial Stars Battle Array that was linked to his own heart and spirit, he knew that Qin now held another trump card sufficient to shake heaven and earth.
With a single thought, the countless star banners turned into streams of light and all sank into his body.
And just at this moment.
"Your Highness."
A respectful voice from the Imperial Guards came from outside the hall.
"Master Xuan Du of Doushuai Temple seeks audience; he has been waiting in the Heavenly Palace for a long time."
"Xuan Du?"
Zhao Feng was slightly surprised. At such a time, what were the Supreme’s people coming to him for?
He did not think much of it. With a single step, his figure vanished from within the Crown Prince Palace.
The next moment.
The Heavenly Palace.
Zhao Feng’s figure appeared out of thin air.
"Father Emperor."
Zhao Feng first bowed to Ying Zheng, then turned his gaze to Master Xuan Du, who had been waiting at the side for a long while.
"Daoist Xuan Du, you have waited long."
"Daoist." When Xuan Du saw Zhao Feng, his spirit also lifted; he immediately stood up and said solemnly, "This poor Daoist comes by order of my teacher, with a matter concerning Daoist’s safety of great importance to inform!"
"My safety?" Zhao Feng, upon hearing this, showed not the slightest panic, and said calmly, "Thank you for making this trip, Daoist. Please speak in detail."
Xuan Du did not keep him in suspense, and said, "My teacher has stated that Hao Tian has already returned from the Purple Cloud Palace."
"Not only has the injury to his Primordial Spirit completely recovered, his cultivation has greatly advanced as well."
"Most crucially..." Xuan Du took a deep breath, lowered his voice, and said, "Heavenly Dao Hong Jun has bestowed upon him three strands of... Saint’s Power!"
When mentioning Heavenly Dao Hong Jun, even someone like Xuan Du appeared extremely cautious.
As though afraid his words would be heard by Hong Jun.
Saint’s Power!
Ying Zheng’s pupils abruptly contracted; even he could not help but feel a jolt in his heart upon hearing these four characters.
A Saint.
That is an existence that stands above all living beings, the supreme one who holds the Laws of Heaven and Earth in hand.
A single strand of Saint’s Power is enough to reverse Qiankun, to change the course of a great tribulation.
And now, Hao Tian actually holds three.
This is no longer a mere threat, but a killing move sufficient to be fatal!
However.
Contrary to Xuan Du and Ying Zheng’s expectations, after Zhao Feng heard this, his face remained that same unruffled expression, as he spoke calmly: "I understand."
This reaction even made Xuan Du freeze for a moment.
That’s it?
That is Saint’s Power, a terrifying force sufficient to erase any Quasi-Saint.
And Zhao Feng just answers with a single "Understood"?
Seeing Xuan Du’s astonished look, Zhao Feng gave a faint smile. "Thank you for making this trip, Daoist. Also, please convey my words to the Supreme Taoist Ancestor—my thanks for his reminder."
"As for Hao Tian..." Zhao Feng spoke with steady confidence: "If he dares to come, I will receive him."
"The westward advance of Qin will not halt."
"Hong Jun’s schemes will, in the end, come to nothing."
This composure, this bearing, filled Xuan Du’s heart with boundless amazement.
He suddenly realized.
He himself, perhaps even his teacher, and even the entire Primordial world, might have underestimated the boldness of this Crown Prince of Qin before him.
Is he fearless out of ignorance, or does he truly possess trump cards sufficient to contend against Saint’s Power?
Xuan Du suppressed the stormy waves in his heart and bowed once more, saying, "Since Daoist has a clear plan in mind, this poor Daoist is relieved."
Then, his tone shifted as he said, "This poor Daoist, in coming here, has another matter."
"My teacher wishes to invite Daoist once more to go and behold the Outer Heaven."
"The offensive of the Outer Realm Demons grows ever fiercer, and the Tribulation Qi of the Primordial world has affected them, making them even more frenzied. If this continues, even the Primordial world itself will be in peril."
Hearing this, Zhao Feng’s gaze suddenly sharpened.
Outer Heaven, Outer Realm Demons.
This is the battlefield that the Supreme has always held, and also the final line of defense guarding the Primordial.
Previously, the Supreme had invited him several times, but each time he failed to go for various reasons.
But now, the Celestial Stars Battle Array has been completed, internal affairs within Qin are properly arranged; perhaps, it is time to go and take a look.
"Very well." This time Zhao Feng did not refuse again; he agreed cleanly and decisively: "Once I have finished giving a few instructions, I will go to Doushuai Temple and travel to Outer Heaven with the Great Mage."
Receiving a definite answer, the nerves that Xuandu had kept taut finally relaxed; a smile appeared on his face. "In that case, this poor Daoist shall await your honored arrival at Doushuai Temple, Daoist!"
Xuandu bowed deeply to Zhao Feng and Ying Zheng, then lingered no more, turning into a streak of clear light and swiftly leaving the Heavenly Palace.
After the departure of Master Xuandu, the great hall fell into silence for a time.
Ying Zheng fixed his gaze on Zhao Feng and spoke in a low voice: "Feng’er, a Saint’s Power is no trivial thing. Are you truly confident?"
Though he trusted his own son, the weight represented by the word "Saint" was simply too great.
That is a kind of absolute power transcending Rules, where words become Law.
All beneath Saints are ants.
This is not mere empty talk.
Even a Peak Quasi-Saint, before a Saint, is trash that can be casually crushed to death.
"Rest assured, Father Emperor." Zhao Feng smiled faintly. "If it were before, it might still take some effort, but now..."
Zhao Feng did not explain further, but merely moved his thoughts.
Hum!
Within the entire great hall, starlight suddenly flared, dazzling to the extreme!
Palm-sized banners, their whole bodies Dark Gold, embroidered with the trajectories of billions of stars, appeared out of thin air, encircling Zhao Feng.
Three hundred and sixty-five main banners!
Fourteen thousand eight hundred auxiliary banners!
Each banner exuded a vast and ancient aura; dense Star Power spread forth, as though it had transformed the entire Heavenly Palace great hall into a boundless starry sky.
Ying Zheng was instantly drawn to these tens of thousands of banners; feeling the terrifying power within them, he could not help asking: "This is?"
Zhao Feng smiled lightly and said: "This is the Guardian Array of the Ancient Demon Race Heavenly Court—the Celestial Stars Battle Array!"
"If this array can be fully activated, its might will be no less than the Twelve Duterrestrial Gods and Demons Array. It’s just that, at present, Qin has yet to seize control of the Heaven Realm stars, so we still cannot unleash its true power."
"Even so, it can still allow Qin’s experts to familiarize themselves with this array in advance."
"These array flags I will hand over to Father Emperor. You can select experts of Qin and let them first comprehend and master this array."
"On that future day, when the Qin Soldiers’ spearhead points at the Heavenly Court, when we take it and grasp the All Stars, this array can be instantly activated and become yet another trump card of Qin, enough to shake Heaven and Earth!"
Hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded, incomparably astonished in his heart.
He was well-informed, and had long heard of this Guardian Array of the Ancient Demon Court.
Only—
He had never imagined that this formation, long since lost, would actually be refined anew by Zhao Feng!
With this array, Qin’s odds of victory in the future decisive battle against the Heavenly Court were undoubtedly a few degrees higher!
He reached out with a single beckon, and those tens of thousands of Star Banners turned into a Star River and flew into his hand.
Feeling the majestic power transmitted from the array flags, Ying Zheng’s heart grew much more settled.
His worries regarding that so?called "Saint’s Power" also dissipated by more than half.
Just as Ying Zheng put away the array flags and was preparing to discuss follow?up details with Zhao Feng—
Hum...
The Tian Xuan Mirror at the center of the great hall suddenly rippled.
On its surface, two figures appeared.
One had Dao bones and Immortal demeanor, dressed in an earth?yellow Daoist robe; it was the Ancestor of Earth Immortals, Zhen Yuanzi.
The other was dignified and noble, born with phoenix grace; she was the mistress of West Kunlun, Queen Mother of the West.
The two wore anxious expressions; through the Tian Xuan Mirror, they bowed to Zhao Feng and Ying Zheng.
"Your servant Zhen Yuanzi (Queen Mother of the West) has an urgent matter to report to the Crown Prince!"
"We beg Your Highness to come to Wuzhuang Temple at once!"
Zhao Feng and Ying Zheng exchanged a glance, each seeing the shock in the other’s eyes.
For Peak Quasi-Saint Great Powers like Zhen Yuanzi and Queen Mother of the West to lose their composure like this clearly meant that a matter of Heaven?shaking magnitude had occurred.
"Father Emperor, your son will return shortly."
Zhao Feng spoke a word of explanation, without the slightest delay; with a single step, his figure vanished from the Heavenly Palace great hall.
The next instant—
Nan Zhanbu Continent, Longevity Mountain, Wuzhuang Temple.
This blessed Immortal land wreathed in auspicious clouds was at this moment shrouded by a layer of gray Tribulation Qi visible to the naked eye.
Outside the temple, the once lush vegetation had withered; countless living beings had scarlet eyes, howling madly under the corrosion of Tribulation Qi, attacking one another; the earth was stained red with blood.
Zhao Feng’s figure appeared within the temple, silent and without a trace.
