NOVEL WEB Chapter 293: Dao Artifact
"To engage the Great Void Path with a Golden Core body!? Could this be... Supreme Divine Power!?"
Behind him, Wang Daoshu's pupils shrank sharply the moment Alkaid countered.
It wasn't a treasure!
It was a Supreme Divine Power that only a True Disciple was qualified to practice!
A cultivator possessing a Supreme Divine Power with a Blazing White Golden Core!?
And the opponent's grasp of the Supreme Divine Power…
Was extremely high!
Wang Daoshu realized immediately that he might have been used as a pawn, a disposable one at that.
But at this moment, he had no time to think further; he instantly tried to control the Void Sand Sea and Void Sandstorm in a futile attempt to tear apart the Rip the Sky with One Strike that was condensed from the void tsunami into tiny points.
"Not good!"
The moment the two forces made contact, his expression changed dramatically.
He was even horrified.
The opponent's Supreme Divine Power contained a special frequency that precisely dissolved the void ripples he had stirred, turning his impressive Divine Skills into mere sand sculptures on a shoreline—smashed by the waves in an instant.
As his Divine Skills were crushed, the force of that strike penetrated with unbelievable speed and fiercely hit his body.
His utmost operating Chaos Void, meant for counterattacking and defending, became extremely unstable upon colliding with the spatial ripples induced by this Supreme Divine Power, unable to distort the space around him at all.
In the end, he could only watch helplessly as this strike, with almost no defense—
or rather, no power to defend—slammed into his Chaos Void!
The moment it hit the Chaos Void, it was like a stellar body struck by photonic particles, its core releasing energy in a storm-like manner, wildly unleashing, instantly disrupting his own power balance.
"How could this be!?"
Wang Daoshu trembled with fear, trying desperately to regain control of his Chaos Void state.
But...
Alkaid before him was not about to stand idly by and do nothing.
While he struggled to control his Chaos Void state, the You Long Sword once again vibrated the void, quickly forming a second Rip the Sky with One Strike that further smashed into Wang Daoshu's completely uncontrollable Chaos Void.
This strike, directly executed a Fatal Kill on the Hollow Void War Immortal.
His already unbalanced Chaos Void completely erupted, releasing countless condensed energies from his body, instantly tearing his Divine Body, which brightened up 1080 acupoints, to pieces.
"I am not reconciled, the Wang Family has not yet been fully revived in my hands, I have not yet led my family to become a new lineage of the Heavenly Dao Sect... I am not reconciled..."
The Hollow Void War Immortal let out a cry of despair.
In the end...
Alkaid no longer needed to make a move.
In his quest for powerful strength, his own "Chaos Void" buried him.
As Alkaid retreated frantically with the Two Realms Ruler, the Hollow Void War Immortal's Chaos Void lost complete control and instantly transformed into boundless energy, shooting in all directions.
Even a special environment like the Northern Sea Star was still dazzled by the violent release of energy, producing a brilliant colorful rainbow.
The rainbow sprawled across three thousand miles.
Accompanied by the wave-like spread of spatial ripples, it tore through the tangible heaven-wide Spiritual Mist and Spiritual Clouds as if a vast grayish-brown cavity had formed in the sky.
...
The spread of void ripples dissipated all the Spiritual Power and Spiritual Mist within a three thousand-mile radius, exposing all beings hidden in this area.
"Is there someone else!?"
The gaze of Alkaid, who had retreated a thousand miles away, focused on another figure in a different direction.
That figure was now looking up at the colorful rainbow spreading across three thousand miles of the void, a tinge of shock in his eyes.
It was Xuan Shuang from the Heavenly Dao Sect True Transmission.
This True Disciple, hidden behind, had hoped that if Wang Daoshu could take down Alkaid, it would be best; if not, with him accompanying and ready to act opportunistically, he could ensure absolute safety.
But he never expected...
That after only two collisions, Alkaid had already captured the frequency of Wang Daoshu's Chaos Void and then...
Directly launched an attack with Supreme Divine Power, perhaps soaring close to a million in combat strength, just twice, smashing the balance of Wang Daoshu's Chaos Void and causing it to lose control and collapse.
Such efficiency, such strength...
Even if he took action himself, it would hardly be any different.
However, it was because he understood the frequency of Wang Daoshu's Chaos Void that he could achieve this.
If Wang Daoshu were replaced with another Hollow Void War Immortal...
Unless there were no other options, he would definitely retreat to the Heavenly Dao Sect as quickly as possible.
Looking down on a Hollow Void War Immortal is one thing.
But letting him fight to the death with a Hollow Void War Immortal...
It's not worth it.
But the Alkaid before him...
Had so quickly grasped his black hole frequency upon their first contact and completed the Fatal Kill...
Was it because he had reached the pinnacle of understanding the "Chaos Void," or did he really possess some unknown treasures?
Xuan Shuang leaned towards the latter.
"Swoosh!"
Startled, Xuan Shuang saw Alkaid once again activate the Two Realms Ruler, charging toward his location amidst a flurry of spatial ripples.
"At the very least, a top-tier Spiritual Treasure from the Third or even Fourth Generation! Compared to a Quasi-Dao Artifact, it's probably hardly inferior..."
He recognized the marvel of the Two Realms Ruler the moment he saw it, and greed surged in his heart.
But this greed was replaced by a chill in just a moment.
Meeting Alkaid's somewhat icy gaze, he instantly realized something, "He wants to kill me!?"
This Inner Sect Disciple, wants to kill him, a True Disciple?
However, he had quietly followed Wang Daoshu out of the Heavenly Dao Sect, and except for his brother Xuan Mo, no one knew he had come here.
If he really died here...
Alkaid, with his Blazing White Golden Core cultivation, might not necessarily be convicted immediately!
This, perhaps, was why he dared to strike at him!
However...
This is not the point!
The point is, does he, a mere Blazing White Golden Core holder, think he can confront him with his Deep Blue Golden Core, just because he dissolved a Hollow Void War Immortal's Chaos Void with a special method?
"What audacity!"
Although Xuan Shuang was wary of any hidden means Alkaid might have, his greed for Alkaid's opportunities and his absolute confidence in his own strength still prompted him to take a risky move.
"I, Xuan Shuang, became a True Disciple not by connections or relationships, but by strength! Even if you possess Supreme Divine Powers, so what? Supreme Divine Powers? As if I don't have them!"
The next moment, a golden war saber appeared in his hand, and at the same time, a brilliant crimson golden flame burst forth from his body, forming a pair of fiery wings. His body swelled against the wind, transforming into a towering crimson gold flame giant, rapidly growing to three meters, ten meters, thirty meters high! Your next chapter is on My Virtual Library Empire
His combat power also rapidly increased with this transformation in size.
660,000, 760,000, 860,000, 960,000...
By the time he had taken the form of a thirty-meter flame giant, his combat power astonishingly reached 960,000!
True Disciple!
This was the strength of the individual ranked thirty-fourth among the eighty-eight True Disciples of the entire Heavenly Dao Sect!
This number was the peak that external Deep Blue Golden Core holders could achieve.
Yet among the eighty-eight True Disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect, it wouldn't even rank within the top thirty.
Thus, it's clear to see just how vast the gap is between a major sect's True Disciples and the external Deep Blue Golden Core holders.
"Supreme Divine Power—Crimson Gold Phoenix Body! This is a Supreme Divine Power that leads directly to the Nirvana Great Dao! It not only grants one mastery over powerful flames but also contains terrifying life force within the flames, making the cultivator nearly impossible to kill! It's practically a combination of the Lihuo and Life Great Dao!"
Alkaid recognized the origin of this Divine Skill at a glance.
This was one of the strongest Supreme Divine Powers within the Heavenly Dao Sect.
Even though Xuan Shuang's mastery of this Divine Skill had not yet reached perfection, a combat power of 960,000 was the best reflection of his current combat ability.
"True Disciple? Can Jin Yuliu still command a True Disciple?"
Alkaid frowned.
He hadn't expected that merely refusing to take a master once could lead to so much trouble.
There were both Hollow Void War Immortals and True Disciple interceptions.
However, whether it be Hollow Void War Immortals or True Disciples, since they had attacked him, it meant they had forged a deadly enmity. On the Northern Sea Star, once enemies are made, only the complete death of one party can end it.
As for reconciliation?
Neither party would be at ease.
"This place is ultimately not too far from the Heavenly Dao Sect. The fall of that Hollow Void War Immortal earlier already caused quite a stir. If another battle with this True Disciple occurs, it must attract the attention of the Heavenly Dao Sect Elders. If Jin Yuliu shows up, he could capture me under the guise of cooperating with the investigation. Then I'd be completely at their mercy, I must resolve this quickly!"
The thoughts in Alkaid's mind rapidly turned.
Facing the formidable True Disciple who had manifested the Crimson Gold Phoenix Body, he directly invoked the Heaven-Sealing Stele, a Dao Artifact.
Once the Dao Artifact was deployed, its Dao charm quickly stirred the surrounding Void Force.
This Void Force, once guided by Alkaid's own traits as a child of the Void, directly formed a small world-like sealed void, enveloping Xuan Shuang.
Meanwhile, Xuan Shuang's eyes lit up even more when he saw Alkaid take out another treasure.
Top-tier Spiritual Treasure of the ruler type!
Top-tier Spiritual Treasure of the flying sword type!
Now, even another Spiritual Treasure!?
Did he plunder the nest of some fallen Hollow Void?
Once a trace of the Dao charm radiated from this treasure, joy immediately turned to surprise and ecstatic joy!
Dao charm!?
This is...
A Quasi-Dao Artifact!?
This small Inner Sect Disciple doesn't just have top-tier Spiritual Treasures, but also a Quasi-Dao Artifact that even a Hollow Void, or even the Refining Ruins Peak Master, would covet!?
I'm going to make it big!
I, True Disciple Xuan Shuang, am going to make it big!
However, before he could fully indulge in this sudden ecstasy, the Dao charm on the "Quasi-Dao Artifact" had already crazily surged, even stirring the surrounding Void Force.
This sudden change caused a slight pause in his joy.
By the time this Dao charm-induced Void Force formed a sealed void under Alkaid's guidance, enveloping him, his joyful expression quickly filled with terror.
"Dao Artifact! Dao Artifact! This is a true Dao Artifact!"
Xuan Shuang was deeply shaken, his eyes filled with fear and disbelief, "You're obviously not a Hollow Void, nor are you using a Magic Formation, how could you possibly activate the might of a Dao Artifact!?"
Unfortunately for him, Alkaid would not give him an answer.
As the power of this Dao Artifact was activated, a small world-like Heaven-Sealing Stele crushed down, instantly solidifying Xuan Shuang, who had manifested the Crimson Gold Phoenix Body and stirred up towering flames, along with the space around him.
