Spirit Vessel
chapter-817

Supreme Goddess rode the clouds, leaving a wondrous trail behind on her path.

She quickly made it past the walls and the bright formations, startling the entire capital.

“The goddess!”

“Does Her Highness wish to take down the rebels?”

“That must be it! Her divineness should be able to slay all evils and push back the rebels!”

She had worshippers in the army as well. Many soldiers considered her an actual god.

Meanwhile, shocking battles occurred outside the capital. The coalition forces were sieging the walls.

Initially, there were twenty-three great powers in the coalition. Now, the Yin and Yang World have joined too for a total of twenty-five.

There were another ten thousand other lesser-powers. This army had plenty of troops and beasts, enough to cause vibrations with their movements.

This was definitely the toughest war in Jin. Thousands of troops died every minute.

Some fell on a puddle of their own blood, others exploded into nothingness, not even a single bone was left behind.

The area outside the capital has been painted red. Blood streamed down and tainted the lakes and rivers.

The once-prosperous land was no more. This was a murder ground with wailing spirits everywhere.

Feiyun also left the capital and kept track of the goddess. He felt something quite strange.

In theory, her soul has just condensed recently so she should be quite weak. However, this goddess wasn’t weak at all. Her flying speed was actually faster than him.

“Something’s amiss.” He only paused for a moment before resuming.

Chaos engulfed the outer regions since numerous cultivators were trying to break down the formations of the capital.

It was a sea of people with no end in sight.

Twenty-five banners were arranged in the air at different locations - Senluo Temple, Sun Moon Sect, Yin World, Xiyue Clan, Beiming Clan...

Other smaller banners consisted of Chen from Heavenly Cloud Prefecture, The Wu from Myriad Ores, etc...

These smaller sects and powers wanted to take advantage of the situation.

“Supreme Goddess is out now, looks like the lord has failed.” A ghost with white skin came out of a carriage and said.

He was the current ruler of the Yin World - White Skin Ghost King.

“Supreme protects the heart, we’ll see how she’ll protect anything when she’s dead.” A loud voice echoed across the land.

Next came a crimson fireball emerging from the void, as large as a mountain and looking like a burning sun.

This was a Dominating Armament with the name, Infernal Sun. It belonged to Solar and was used by three ancestors.

They meditated in the air and tried to use it in order to kill Supreme.

“Boom!” Ten thousand beast souls appeared behind Feng Feiyun. His eight phoenix bones gathered together and empowered him.

His fist became engulfed in a golden Buddhist light as he punched forward, blowing this Dominating Armament away.

The spectators were frightened since someone had just used their body to fight against an armament. A regular Enlightened Being wouldn’t dare to do so.

Feiyun leaped to the air and stomped all three ancestors to death. He grabbed the armament and declared: “You have to get through me first.”

The cultivators nearby became frozen. This guy made quite a fierce and merciless entrance.

It must be a big shot. Recently, they have seen many big shots but none this young.

“That’s Feng Feiyun! He must have finished cultivating Golden Silkworm and got a power boost!” Someone shouted.

“I heard this guy is crazy. He massacred several million for Supreme Goddess before.”

There were more than ten million members from Solar outside the capital and more than twenty Giants. They were furious right now.

“Avenge the ancestors!” Countless beams shot out and illuminated the entire area.

The sheer number could overwhelm an Enlightened Being.

Feiyun didn’t want to risk it but avoiding the entire thing was impossible.

“Your turn, old turtle!”

“Shit! Several million cultivators at once? You’re messing with me!”

Feiyun threw out the turtle. Its shell immediately became large enough to shield him.

“Rumble!” All of the rays struck the shell and destroyed the vicinity. However, it remained standing.

The Solar cultivators couldn’t believe it. How could this shell be so tough?

“My turn.” Feiyun came out of the shell and used both Infernal Sun and Blood-being Exalted Pot.

The sky turned red as a result of their power. This was a complete massacre.

The ones from Solar screamed and tried to run. They couldn’t fight back against these high-level treasures.

The land turned into lava; so many were killed.

The soldiers of Jin on the walls couldn’t believe it, especially those who have followed Feng Feiyun in the past.

One general from the Divine King faction laughed and said: “See? His Highness is taking action in this crucial moment, reversing the tides with his heaven-defying style.”

Another Divine Commander said: “He’s the only one with such power and decisiveness at his age, rampaging through an army and taking them down like nothing.”

“Do you still remember when he was livid about Nangong Hongyan and led us into the capital, completely flattening Beauty’s Smile? That’s an unprecedented boldness in our history.”

These warriors became emotional. He was still the Divine King in their heart so they wanted to rush out and join him.

Alas, they knew that the current rulers of Jin were in charge. They must obey martial orders or face the consequences.

Meanwhile, Long Luofu in her imperial robe stood on top of a higher wall. Draconic energy floated around her as she glared at Feiyun: “Showing off in front of Nangong Hongyan? One man’s power is limited.”

“Emperor, our morale is extremely high right now, should we open the formations and take the fight to them?” Heaven-battler Marquis’ eyes flashed brightly, wanting to start this historical battle.

“The empress has given the order that now is not the time for a direct confrontation.” Luofu replied.

“We should fight now because the soldiers are ready. The Divine King might be strong but he’s all alone. We can join him, it’ll be much more effective this way. Plus, if he were to lose, our morale will drop. Please, Emperor, don’t miss this godsend opportunity.” Winged Marquis stood up; his spear released bloody rays.

Long Luofu turned around and stared at the two of them before speaking: “Feng Feiyun is no longer the Divine King of Jin. I hope you two get this in your head.”

She then turned back towards Supreme Goddess; her eyes looked complicated. She clenched her fists for a bit before relaxing.

The two marquises acquiesced. They stomped in frustration and left.

“Damn this Long Luofu. She forgot who helped her seize the throne back then.” Heaven-battler was furious. He wanted to hit Luofu if it wasn’t for the current precarious situation.

“I think she’s jealous because His Highness is fighting for Supreme Goddess...”

Suddenly, Long Chuanfeng landed before them. They kneeled and said respectfully: “Greetings, Emeritus Divine King.”

Chuanfeng nodded and gestured for them to rise: “I heard what you two said earlier. There’s chaos right now at the capital, don’t repeat this or it’ll affect the troops’ morale.”

“I understand, but that Long Luo-... Emperor is too unreasonable. She turned against the Divine King so quickly, how disappointing.” Winged Marquis said.

“There’s no emotion in war, plus, the empress is in charge right now so the emperor can’t change anything. I went to the palace earlier and met the Emeritus Emperor, he gave me the decree written by the emperor half a year ago.” Long Chuanfeng took out a yellow scroll and gave it to the two.

Heaven-battler nearly threw it on the ground after reading the content: “This wretched Long Luofu! She thought about removing the Divine King from his post since half a year ago, does she think our action is so easily bullied?!”

He had a hot temper and stopped calling Long Luofu by her title after reading the content. This was a crime punishable by death but he no longer gave a damn. He actually wanted to kill her right now.
