Chapter 2249 Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator
When the Sect Leader of the Heaven Divination Sect died, the delicate body of a woman hovering in the air above a small valley that was located tens of thousands of miles away from the Heaven Divination Sect trembled slightly.
The woman was dressed in a snowy-white robe. She looked like a fairy that had descended to the mortal world as she hovered in the air. Her peerlessly graceful bearing caused her surroundings to dim in comparison.
The woman’s waist-length hair fell behind her like a waterfall. Although half of her face was hidden behind a thin veil, based on the other half that was unconcealed, one could easily imagine how beautiful and graceful she must be.
The woman looked like a snow goddess as she hovered motionlessly in the air and emitted a cold aura that caused the temperature in the surroundings to drop several degrees.“It’s still a little taxing for me to kill a powerhouse at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage with the Heaven Defying Art of Cursing,” the woman muttered under her breath. Her peerlessly beautiful and delicate face was pale at this moment. It was as though she had suffered a backlash from her attack.
As soon as the woman finished speaking, it seemed as though she had transformed into a gust of wind as she vanished from the valley. The valley regained its tranquility again when she left.
If there was another person here at this moment, he or she would be shocked to discover all the lush green plants and flowers with vivid colors within 100 meters radius of the small valley had begun to wilt one after another after the woman left.
The lush green area within 100 meters radius withered and yellowed.
The area where the small valley was located was originally thriving, but the suddenly-yellowed land appeared particularly eye-catching from the sky.
After several hours, Mo Xuan, the Grand Oracle of the Heaven Divination Sect, flew past this area. When he saw the withered piece of land in the middle of lush greeneries, he narrowed his eyes and descended in the small valley immediately.
“I remember this area was lush with greeneries. How is it that all the plants and flowers within 100 meters radius are wilting? Moreover, I can feel their vitality fading away with my Divine Consciousness.” Mo Xuan’s expression was extremely solemn.A thought appeared unbidden in Mo Xuan’s mind. ‘In other words, the plants and flowers have only begun to wilt not too long ago. This only happened recently!’
Suddenly, Mo Xuan recalled something. When the Sect Leader of Heaven Divination Sect suddenly collapsed and died with his seven orifices bleeding, a voice had rung in the air.
“I’m the current successor of the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect, and the last disciple of the Old Prophet.
It finally occurred to Mo Xuan belatedly that the killer was the current successor of the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect. Not only that, but she was also another female member of the Seven Absolutes Sect!
“Seven Absolutes Sect… The Prophet Progeny…” Mo Xuan’s expression darkened as he quickly racked his brain for information about the Second Absolute, the Prophet Progeny. As the Grand Oracle of the Heaven Divination Sect, he had lived for a long time. It was only natural that he was well-versed with the ancient books and records in the Heaven Divination Sect. He had some knowledge about the era when the Seven Absolutes Sect had suppressed the Heaven Divination Sect.
“During that time when Sword Saint Feng Qing Yang was around, the successors of the six Absolutes of the Seven Absolutes Sect were extremely talented. All of them were remarkable and outstanding in their own way. Among them, the successor of Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect, had the weakest cultivation base. However, he was skilled in a technique called the Heaven Defying Art of Cursing. He was also the first Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator in the Dao Martial Saint Land! Unfortunately, his cultivation base did not rise above the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. It was said that, in the end, he died a natural death in his bed. With his cultivation base, he could, at most, kill someone at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage using the Heaven Defying Art of Cursing. He did not possess the ability to kill a powerhouse at the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”
The Grand Oracle of Heaven Divination Sect, Mo Xuan’s eyes suddenly widened as an expression of terror appeared on his face. “It seems like the current successor of the Prophet Progeny is also a Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator! Not only did she successfully cultivate the Heaven Defying Art of Cursing, but it seems like her cultivation base is not low at all. She’s at least at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to kill the sect leader!”
Mo Xuan’s expression turned even grimmer as he continued to think to himself, ‘Once the Heaven Defying Art of Cursing is cast, the land within 100 meters radius of the caster would wither.’ He was certain of this. After all, it was due to the withered land that he discovered the current successor of the Prophet Progeny from the Seven Absolutes Sect was a Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator who cultivated the Heaven Defying Art of Cursing!
Mo Xuan narrowed his eyes as he muttered to himself, “I can’t believe that a Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator has appeared again. Not only that, but this Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator’s cultivation base is even more powerful than his or her predecessor from that era. At the very least, her cultivation base is at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage Seventh!”
A Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator was extremely terrifying. During that time, the successor of the Prophet Progeny had struck fear into everyone’s hearts even though his cultivation base was only at the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. This was due to his technique, the Heaven Defying Art of Cursing, that could kill someone from thousands of miles away.
This was even more terrifying than the technique of the successor of the Dark Shadow Progeny, the Fourth Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect.
The latter, at least, needed to personally make his move to kill someone. Whereas the former did not need to make a move at all. He or she could curse someone to death with just a thought.
At that time, there was nobody below the Eighth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage who was not afraid of the successor of the Prophet Progeny from the Seven Absolutes Sect… After all, they could be killed, unaware, with just a thought. Many people at that time were relieved his cultivation base did not progress past the Sixth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. Since he could not break through to the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, also known as the Heaven- Defying Form, it meant that he was not immortal and would eventually die. Once he died, there would no longer be any Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator in this world!’ Mo Xuan thought to himself. His expression could not have gotten any darker at this point. ‘Currently, not only did a Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator appear again, but it seems like the current successor of the Prophet Progeny is also at the Seventh Form of the Saint Celestial Stage. This means that she possesses an unending life span. If she doesn’t meet with any accidents, she’ll eventually break through to the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage!”
Mo Xuan’s heart thumped wildly in his chest. How powerful was a Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage? With the help of the Heaven Defying Art of Cursing, she could freely kill anyone who was not an Eminent Celestial with just a thought!
“Although I’m sure there has to be some sort of restriction for a technique like the Heaven Defying Art of Cursing, any normal person would regard this technique as Death itself before they’re able to learn about its restrictions!” Even Mo Xuan, the Grand Oracle of the Heaven Divination Sect, an awe-inspiring powerhouse at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage was no exception.
After so many years, not only has the Seven Absolutes Sect appeared again, but they even have such a terrifying person as the successor of the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes. Is it possible that the Seven Absolutes Sect is going to regain its former glory, suppressing the three great sects until we can’t even lift our heads? Just the successor of the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect, is already so terrifying… What will it be like when the successor of the Fog Rain Progeny, the First Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect, appears?’ Mo Xuan thought to himself as worries gnawed incessantly on his heart. He knew the Seven Absolutes Sect had come prepared this time!
News of the Sect Leader of the Heaven Divination Sect being killed in the presence of Mo Xuan, the Grand Oracle of Heaven Divination Sect, whose cultivation base was at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage and was also ranked third on the Supreme Saint Rankings spread in the Upper Province and caused a huge uproar!
“I’m the current successor of the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect, and the last disciple of the Old Prophet.” This sentence left behind by the person who killed the Sect Leader of Heaven Divination Sect became widely spread as well.
“I heard that the successor of the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect, is a woman… People in the Heaven Divination Sect clearly heard a woman’s voice!”
“Goodness! Are the female members in the Seven Absolutes Sect all so valiant? First, there’s Han Xue Nai, then, Feng Tian Wu. And now, there’s a female successor for the Prophet Progeny!”
“This is not the point. The point is that when the Sect Leader of Heaven Divination Sect was killed, Mo Xuan, the Grand Oracle of Heaven Divination Sect, was right next to him. Even Mo Xuan did not feel that anything was amiss! How terrifying is this?”
“Is it possible that the successor of the Prophet Progeny is an Eminent Celestial? After all, even Mo Xuan who’s at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage didn’t detect her presence!”
“Impossible! With the deep enmity between the Seven Absolutes Sect and the three great sects, if the successor of the Prophet Progeny is an Eminent Celestial, she wouldn’t have stopped at killing the sect leader, she would’ve annihilated the Heaven Divination Sect!”
You have a point. Still, I wonder what’s really going on?”
As for the invisible killing technique that the successor of the Prophet Progeny mastered, every single person who heard about it was scared witless.
Many people who were more knowledgeable had a fearful expression on their faces. “D-Don’t tell me that the current successor of the Prophet Progeny, the Second Absolute of the Seven Absolutes Sect, is a Heaven-Defying Dao Cultivator?”
