Gourmet of Another World
chapter-135

Ni Yan was standing in mid air outside the Gate of Heavenly Mystery . As she saw the divine dragon simulacrum crush the combined attack of three experts from the Heterodox sects whose cultivation levels were equivalent to seventh grade Battle-Saints, she could not help but suck in a breath of cold air . She thought, "As expected of the magic array that even our sect leader is concerned about, the capability of this Double Calamity Dragon Head Array is indeed formidable . "

The enormous eyeball that was formed with jade talismans was hovering above her head and recording the battle going on in the Gate of Heavenly Mystery . In truth, she was more curious about Bu Fang who was inconspicuously loitering inside .

She was very curious about Bu Fang's aim .

However, Bu Fang had not done anything yet, so Ni Yan stopped paying attention to him and diverted all of her attention toward the divine dragon simulacrum .

The fact that the emperor had fused his consciousness with the divine dragon simulacrum could be considered resurrecting himself . However, strictly speaking, he was still deceased . Turning himself into the spirit of the magic array was just a temporary measure and he would eventually disappear . However, before dissipating, Ji Changfeng was going to eliminate all hidden troubles . Maybe this was something that he had been planning for a long time .

King Yu was kneeling on the ground . His bitterness was already long gone when that catastrophic dragon claw descended . When faced with such power, King Yu could only admit defeat .

Buzz!

King Yu's pupils constricted as a stream of true energy flowed into his body . He felt this foreign true energy that occupied the space above his dantian had suppressed the true energy throughout his body and the circulation had completely stopped . Emperor Changfeng had really sealed his cultivation level .

As the eyes of the divine dragon simulacrum turned toward the crown prince, his body suddenly shuddered and he was extremely frightened .

The divine dragon simulacrum stared at crown prince for a long while and then let out a sigh . Without saying anything, it turned its gaze away . . .

Everyone was surprised and the crown prince himself was stunned as well . "This… What's the meaning of this? Why didn't father say anything?" The crown prince was infuriated… However, he did not dare to say anything, so his expression became somewhat comical .

Suddenly, Zhao Musheng who had been standing next to the crown prince all this time made his move . As overwhelming true energy emanated from him, brilliant rays of golden light appeared around his body .

The divine dragon simulacrum turned toward him . With a draconic roar, a finely detailed dragon claw descended toward Zhao Musheng .

"Ji Changfeng… I've underestimated you . I didn't anticipate that you would actually choose to become the spirit of this magic array in order to activate it . However, with your current state, you wouldn't be able to maintain it for long . . . " With a carefree smile and his hands held behind his back, Zhao Musheng arrived before the divine dragon simulacrum within an instant .

He raised his hand and the aura of a seventh grade Battle-Saint instantly spread out and a Buddhist aura radiated around him, as if a golden lotus was blooming . He formed a mudra with his hand and pushed forward, aiming for the divine dragon simulacrum .

As the dragon claw and the mudra collided together, an earthshaking explosion rang out and Zhao Musheng stumbled several steps backward in the air .

On the other hand, the divine dragon simulacrum became slightly dimmer and the coffin that was wrapped in chains shook a little .

Zhao Musheng's eyes lit up . As he had expected, Ji Changfeng's Double Calamity Dragon Head Array was not the complete version . Thereafter, he took a step forward with a laugh . He appeared at the abdomen area of the simulacrum and ruthlessly threw out a palm strike, causing the divine dragon simulacrum to flicker for a moment .

"This is not the complete version of the Double Calamity Dragon Head Array after all!" Zhao Musheng said with a sneer and then spat out the essence of his blood . As he exerted all of his strength, he actually pierced through the divine dragon simulacrum . With an earthshaking draconic roar, the divine dragon simulacrum shattered with a loud noise .

At the same time, the coffin that was wrapped in chains fell onto the ground and produced a loud thud .

Within the coffin, the aura emanating from Emperor Changfeng who was sitting upright slowly subsided and then the corpse peacefully lay back down .

Zhao Musheng's body swayed for a moment and his expression became somewhat pale as well . Even though he exploited a gap and the Double Calamity Dragon Head Array itself was originally not going to last long, he still received a considerable backlash .

However, there was not even the slightest concern about his own injuries on Zhao Musheng's face . On the contrary, he was excitedly staring at the bronze coffin .

As he formed a mudra with his hand and exerted his will, three dots of bright lights flew out from the coffin .

The light faded away and revealed the appearance of the three objects: a dazzling Śarīra, an aromatic fruit with three cloud-like patterns on its round surface, and a pitch-black stone .

These three items were things that Zhao Musheng had desired for a long time . The Śarīra was an extremely precious relic left by an expert from the Mahayana Island after he passed away, while the pitch-black stone was the Death Soul Palace's semi-divine weapon, the Departed Soul Orb .

As for the fruit, it was an extremely valuable seventh grade spirit fruit, the Three Stripes Path-Understanding Fruit . If someone consumed this fruit, he would have a high chance of achieving enlightenment .

In order for Ji Changfeng to activate the Double Calamity Dragon Head Array, he had to rely on numerous treasures to provide sufficient energy . Among the many treasures, Zhao Musheng was only interested in these three objects .

Originally, Zhao Musheng was planning to help the crown prince become the emperor and control him from behind the scenes . However, with Ji Changfeng's interference, all of his plans were ruined . King Yu was demoted and the third prince after obtaining Xiao Meng's support was not someone the crown prince could defeat . Therefore, in simple terms, the conclusion was already foregone .

"Since there's no turning back, I might as well forsake all pretense and obtain some benefits before returning . At the very least… I have to bring the Śarīra . " That was what Zhao Musheng thought .

As Zhao Musheng held the Śarīra in his hand, his eyes became even more benevolent as a warm feeling enveloped his body .

King Yu lost and the crown prince had lost all chances of winning . In the end, the third prince was the winner of this fight over the throne .

The magic array that had encompassed the entire Gate of Heavenly Mystery gradually dissipated and its lights faded away . Snow began to voluminously descend from the sky once more .

"Do you really think you could leave just like that?" Xiao Meng said as he looked at Zhao Musheng, who was about to leave . Zhao Musheng's identity was already revealed . Evidently, he was not only an expert from the sects, but also an extremely powerful expert from Mahayana Island .

However, even if he was an expert from the Mahayana Island, Xiao Meng would never allow him to leave so easily . . .

"You won't be able to stop me . . . " Zhao Musheng said as he serenely looked at Xiao Meng .

The corners of Xiao Meng's mouth curled up as the true energy within his body surged . He said, "How would I know without even trying?"

However, just as true energy surged out from their bodies and they were about to confront each other, a slender figure slowly walked over .

The clear footsteps were extremely conspicuous within the vast Gate of Heavenly Mystery . At least, the gaze of Zhao Musheng, Xiao Meng as well as other people were all attracted by the sound and landed on the figure who was slowly approaching .

The expression on Ji Chengxue's face suddenly became somewhat lively as he stared at the person with a look of incredulity on his face .

Xiao Meng raised his eyebrows and looked at that person in surprise .

Xiao Yanyu and Xiao Xiaolong were both dumbfounded . . .

"Owner Bu… What is he doing here?" Xiao Yanyu said, wondering whether to laugh or cry .

Zhao Musheng's expression was strange as he looked at the young man standing before him, whose cultivation level was only fourth grade Battle-Spirit . In his eyes, the young man was calm and composed as he walked toward him and actually waved at him before expressionlessly opening his mouth .

"Umm… I am just passing through . I'll leave right after I borrow something from you," Bu Fang said as he gave Zhao Musheng a glance .

Zhao Musheng was bewildered . "Borrow? Borrow what?"

Thereafter, Bu Fang raised his hand and pointed toward the fruit with three could-like patterns in Zhao Musheng's hand . He seriously said, "There, that fruit in your hand . "
