Chapter 1916: Chapter 1916
The Divine Master was angrily roaring in front of everyone, reprimanding them for being ineffective in finding Su Yang after so much time.
Suddenly, the Divine Master stopped roaring, or rather, he seemed to be frozen in place, standing motionless without making a sound or moving at all.
Those he rebuked looked at the Divine Master in astonishment, not knowing why he suddenly had such a reaction.
"Divine Master…" Sect Leader Qi cautiously approached the Divine Master, whispering, "Please don't be angry. I have already sent out your orders. Next, everyone in Huaxia will help search for that Su. No matter how powerful he is, he can't escape, and we'll definitely find him quickly!"
Everyone else nodded, but the Divine Master showed no reaction, not even glancing at Sect Leader Qi. He stood frozen as if immobilized by an immobilization charm, completely still.
If it weren't for the changes in his gaze, one might indeed mistake him for a statue.
Sect Leader Qi and the others didn't know what the Divine Master was thinking and dared not speak, simply waiting with bowed heads.
After a long time, the Divine Master finally moved. He slowly stepped back a few paces with an air of desolation and sat heavily on the sofa behind him, staring blankly ahead.
Everyone was baffled, the Divine Master's reaction was so strange, what had happened?
However, no one dared to ask, as the Divine Master's temper was extraordinarily fiery today.
"You may leave now!" The Divine Master suddenly gestured, prompting everyone to swiftly exit the room, hesitant to linger. No one wanted to face the Divine Master's wrath if he erupted again.
Watching everyone leave, the Divine Master took a deep breath, approached the window, gazed toward Storm Valley, and murmured, "How could he take the Investiture of the Gods?"
The array securing the Investiture of the Gods within Storm Valley was personally placed by the Divine Master. It contained his power imprint. When broken, the Divine Master would immediately sense it, not only knowing the array was breached but also who broke it.
He was silent because he sensed Su Yang breaking the array, leaving him stunned.
This incident was indeed a substantial blow to him.
Su Yang's taking of the World Melting Furnace was one thing, as initially, the Divine Master wasn't overly concerned. The World Melting Furnace itself wasn't crucial to him; what mattered were the arrays used by the Possessors for cultivation within it.
Even though Su Yang took the World Melting Furnace, his people were no match for the hundreds of Possessors within. They couldn't influence the progress of these arrays. To the Divine Master, the outcome remained unchanged.
Yet shortly after forming this idea, he felt the array used by the Possessors during their cultivation being broken.
He didn't know what method Su Yang used to deal with so many Possessors, but it was an undeniable fact, leaving him nearly collapsing.
As Su Yang anticipated, the Divine Master's main goal had always been the World Melting Furnace. If he could obtain its power, the Nine Realms would be insignificant to him.
His carefully laid plans were thus thwarted by Su Yang, which naturally enraged him. Hence, he offered a hefty reward, urging people worldwide to capture Su Yang, and made bold claims that if Su Yang didn't appear soon, he would open all channels to the Eight Realms, forcing Su Yang to show himself.
Obtaining the World Melting Furnace would allow the Divine Master to continue recruiting people for array cultivation. Although it would take more time, the final result would remain unaffected. Moreover, his side was far stronger than Su Yang's, so recovering the furnace was merely a matter of time, providing him some confidence. Latest content publıshed on NoveI(F)ire.net
However, before they could find Su Yang, this unexpected event transpired, with Su Yang taking the Investiture of the Gods, leaving the Divine Master almost hopeless.
Su Yang taking the Investiture of the Gods now was clearly aimed at using the Heavenly Court and Huaxia cultivators against him, completely eliminating his forces.
As a result, the Divine Master's side was significantly weaker compared to Su Yang's, stripping him of his last confidence and plunging him into despair, wouldn't he?
"He entered Storm Valley? How could he possibly enter Storm Valley?" The Divine Master mumbled, unable to accept it. He knew the terrifying powers within Storm Valley better than anyone, where even beings like the Lord of Heaven could not venture too deep. How did Su Yang enter?
The Divine Master had placed the Investiture of the Gods deeper inside Storm Valley with his unique secret technique but could only enter that depth himself. Yet, he was confident that within the Nine Realms, no one could retrieve it, which was his main reason for openly attempting to control the Human World.
Yet, events unfolded unlike he anticipated, with Su Yang venturing into such depths and taking the Investiture of the Gods, how could it be?
"With the Investiture of the Gods out, Su Yang will definitely release all the Heavenly Court and Huaxia cultivators…" The Divine Master paced agitatedly by the window, knowing trouble loomed once they were unleashed.
After a long silence, the Divine Master clenched his teeth and angrily declared, "Su Yang, you've forced me into this. Since you plan to use the Heavenly Court against me, don't blame me for being ruthless. I'll open a world seal and let you tear each other apart!"
Su Yang was unaware that taking the Investiture of the Gods would compel the Divine Master to open a world seal prematurely.
The Divine Master left his room, heading straight for the teachers' building cellar.
In the basement lay seven stone coffins. Originally there were eight, but the one from the Heavenly Road had been sent to Storm Valley by the Divine Master, leaving seven remaining.
The Divine Master circled the area and directly found the stone coffin connected to the Asura Realm. The boundary point inside this coffin linked to the Asura Realm. The Asura Clan, notorious for their violent tendencies, were enough to provoke chaos in the Human World, allowing the Divine Master to possibly exploit the situation.
He took a magic artifact from his pocket, took a deep breath, and pushed hard against the coffin's lid.
At that moment, a coffin behind suddenly opened, with a golden monk springing forth and charging at the Divine Master.
