Gods Vanish on a Cloudy Day

Chapter 15 Good, Full of Spirit!

Chapter 583 Good, Very Spirited!

What to do?

Hearing this somewhat flustered question, Li Yeyu really wanted to say "stir-fry" in exasperation—didn't they see what the situation was? Even if the enemy was really catching up, they couldn't just spout nonsense and cause chaos in the ranks!

"Calm down, and observe who the enemy is!"

But even so, she couldn't lose her temper now. Taking a deep breath, the girl calmed her mind and cast her divine sense backward.

Then, she sensed a highly intense spiritual energy reaction individual rapidly charging towards them from behind.

His speed was extremely fast, already exceeding ten times the speed of sound. The white air shockwaves caused by supersonic speed were like clouds wrapped around him—at this speed, not only would the exploration team be caught up, but even supersonic fighters and rockets would be overtaken.

However, for some reason, Li Yeyu sensed a familiar feeling from the other party.

—How could this be?!

As soon as this feeling arose in her heart, Li Yeyu couldn't help but be shocked. How could she feel familiar with the king of the Jiu Xuan Realm? Unlike Li Zhentang, she was a pure Earth native. Before the spiritual energy revival, she didn't even know what other worlds were. How could she feel familiar with a Jiu Xuan person?

However, when the spiritual energy reaction got closer and closer, Li Yeyu suddenly realized why she felt a sense of familiarity with the other party.

"No—this, isn't this Zhuzhou?!"

Without turning her head, merely locking on with her divine sense, Li Yeyu was outwardly calm at this moment, but inwardly she was already complaining loudly: "It's Su professor's Zhuzhou—I should have thought of it sooner. Transforming into a rocket, I haven't seen any other extraordinary creature that can do that!"

The girl's perception was not wrong.

Because chasing after them was indeed a strange-looking, roughly elongated dragon, currently using the power of wind and fire to propel the atmosphere, spraying out a long plasma flame tail!

The Jiu Xuan Cloud King was clearly a Mimicry Dao cultivator, and most of the troops he led were transformed into divine birds and dragons.

Now, he and his troops were following behind their king, a vast and mighty mass, rushing from the horizon—these Jiu Xuan people had obviously received strict orders, using even more effort than the exploration team to track them. Now, they had finally overtaken the team.

"Wait, no way?!"

"It's really Zhuzhou?!"

For a time, the other members of the exploration team exclaimed in surprise, extremely astonished by the identity of the pursuer behind them—although they wouldn't necessarily lose their fighting spirit, the name of the divine dragon Zhuzhou had indeed become a symbol of invincibility on Earth because of Su Zhou.

Of course, everyone was very clear that it was Su Zhou, Professor Su, who was invincible, not his bloodline. But it was very obvious that this bloodline, which everyone hadn't yet figured out whether it was a dragon or a tree, was also a powerful asset.

"Calm down, calm down!"

At this moment, the extremely tired Li Yeyu could only rely on her persona to calm people's hearts.

As Su Zhou's student in charge, in order to stabilize the minds of the exploration team, she could only spout nonsense: "Don't be afraid, everyone. According to my mentor, Professor Su, this kind of Zhuzhou with only a dragon body and dragon wings is just the lowest level of Zhuzhou!"

"The truly superior Zhuzhou looks nothing like a dragon at all. It must have scales and feathers, wings as wide as a bird, and its body covered with an exoskeleton armor... In short, the more features, the stronger the Zhuzhou blood!"

"And this Zhuzhou looks like nothing more than a slightly deformed traditional divine dragon. That's enough to show that this should just be a mixed-blood, not that powerful!"

These words immediately calmed down several exploration team members who had studied Su Zhou before. They also used their divine sense to sense the pursuers behind them, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems... really?"

"The aura of this Jiu Xuan Zhuzhou is indeed far inferior to Professor Su's domineering will back then!"

Seeing this, Li Yeyu immediately seized the opportunity: "Good, very spirited!"

"Everyone, don't worry. This time exploring the Jiu Xuan Realm, the official has long been prepared for ambushes or pursuits, and I have also prepared corresponding protective props!"

Saying this, the girl reluctantly took out a pure white, crystalline scale from her bosom. On the scale, mysterious spiritual patterns were faintly emerging, and the spiritual energy of the five elements gathered on it, constructing a seemingly incomparably divine cycle.

——I actually have to use this life-saving thing... Oh well, I'll just ask my mentor for another one next time. Anyway, he's big and has a lot of scales!

Such thoughts flashed through her mind. Clearly not a leader, but in order to maintain her persona, Li Yeyu, who was forcibly pretending to be calm, glanced around and said to everyone: "Everyone, listen to my orders!"

"Later, immediately turn around and jointly launch a final counterattack to block the pursuers... Then, regardless of whether it succeeds or not, everyone return to Earth as quickly as possible!"

"Yes!"

At this moment.

The Jiu Xuan Cloud King, who was pursuing, was also extremely excited.

"Zhuzhou! It's the Primordial Zhuzhou!"

Bai Yuntian, a senior explorer in the Pioneer Space and the Jiu Xuan Cloud King, didn't have the slightest thought of the exploration team in his mind. His thoughts were completely elsewhere, namely in the space mission regarding the 'Zhuzhou Body'!

Cloud King Bai Yuntian was a descendant of the Azure Dragon Star Lord, one of the Four Symbols of Heaven in the past. He was a long-standing Azure Dragon bloodline.

And coincidentally, the Azure Dragon was also a Celestial Sacred lineage that claimed to be a divine dragon, but was essentially a spirit of the celestial stars—just like the Vermilion Bird was not a divine bird in the traditional sense, but a prototype of a bird that was more sublime than almost all divine birds.

The fundamental cultivation method of the Azure Dragon Star Lord, the 'Taihao Shaoyang Heavenly One Righteous God True Art', was a fundamental righteous method to cultivate with the help of the power of the stars. In the past, when the Jiu Xuan Realm was still connected to the Celestial Realm, one could naturally go to the other worlds to visit the universe and stars at any time, and comprehend the power of the stars. But after the spiritual energy was cut off, in the dark world where even the sun and moon had disappeared, this righteous method became almost useless.

The reason why the Cloud King lineage could become one of the Twenty-Four Kings of Jiu Xuan was not because their family's bloodline was so powerful, but because they dared to fight, dared to explore, and were willing to absorb different knowledge for their own use.

Because they knew that they could not rely on the ancestral methods, they always had a greater curiosity about new things than other Jiu Xuan kings.

And this kind of character would naturally be inspired by the Pioneer—Bai Yuntian was summoned by the Pioneer Space a few years ago and became a glorious explorer.

There were many resources in the Pioneer Space, and the more secrets the explorers discovered, the more things the space could exchange.

Influenced by his family, Bai Yuntian was very interested in new things. But he basically knew all the dragon bloodlines in the space, even the Western dragon types. Because in the past, in the Earth Realm, the Central Divine Court and other divine systems also had contact and records, so he mostly knew them and had no interest.

So, when he saw the 'Zhuzhou Bloodline', this original Azure Dragon descendant immediately shone: "It's you!"

Zhuzhou's abilities were actually very useful for the explorers of the Pioneer Space, whether it was the 'Rocket Form' that could accelerate to rapid speed, or the 'Ejection Form' that could separate the head and body to escape rapidly. They were all very practical.

And Zhuzhou was also very good at the basic qualities of a divine dragon, such as being born to control the power of wind and water, riding the clouds and fog, and calling the wind and rain. They were above the standard, and the bloodline had great potential and freedom to upgrade.

Most importantly, Bai Yuntian had never seen this bloodline before!

Because of these reasons, with the help of the Pioneer Space, Bai Yuntian quickly became a brand-new Zhuzhou.

Originally, this Cloud King had no interest in the explorers from the Celestial Realm—exploration, who wasn't an explorer? A joke, what explorer could be more arrogant than the members of their Pioneer Space?

Ah no, was more professional?

As for the chaotic situation within the Jiu Xuan Realm, the Cloud King was also quite dismissive. He knew very well that the current Jiu Xuan Realm was indeed on top of a volcano and was about to erupt with great turmoil.

But his Cloud King Territory was originally a relatively peaceful territory, and he often spent exploration points to exchange for food and resources to help his territory and relieve the poor, so the situation in the Cloud King Territory was not so serious.

After all, in the Pioneer Space, things like food were really the cheapest. Bai Yuntian was not a fool. He knew very well that a stable territory could bring him more benefits than those exploration points.

"When the other thirty-two territories self-destruct, I will move the Cloud King Territory to a place near the middle layer of the mantle to watch—when the Jiu Xuan Realm self-destructs internally, or is evenly matched with the Celestial Realm, I will come out again."

"Although I know with my knees that being a Xuan Emperor doesn't mean much, but I haven't been a Xuan Emperor yet, how fresh!"

——Only fearing that the world is not chaotic, if you haven't seen it, you definitely want to see it, just waiting to watch the fresh fireworks and join in the fun.

This was standard Pioneer behavior.

Although he thought so, when Bai Yuntian's subordinates reported to him and uploaded a video to him, this Cloud King was immediately shocked.

"Wh, what?!"

He stared at the Su Zhou combat video released in the light curtain in front of him, his face full of astonishment: "Zhuzhou... the Primordial Zhuzhou of the Celestial Realm?!"

"No, is this also Zhuzhou?! So Zhuzhou can grow like this!"

"And so strong! Much stronger than me! No, just looking at the shape, I lost. His scales and wings are so handsome, why can't I grow them?!"

For a time, because he was too excited, the Cloud King spouted nonsense for almost three minutes. After the messenger reminded him with a light cough, this Jiu Xuan King woke up from his fanaticism.

Bai Yuntian took a deep breath, and his eyes became clear and calm again: "Interesting, too interesting—the Celestial Realm is worthy of being the ancestral land of the Central Divine Court in the past. There are such strong people..."

"Pass my order! The Yuntian Guards gather, I want to personally conquer and hunt down the Celestial Realm exploration team!"

"Catch... no, please invite them back to the Cloud King Territory. I have something important to ask!"

And now, the personally conquered Cloud King was indeed about to catch up with the Celestial Realm exploration team.

"Everyone, don't worry!"

Facing the exploration team members who were also rapidly marching in the Spirit Realm, Bai Yuntian shouted loudly in a kind tone: "This king just wants to invite you to my territory as guests—I swear to the Jiu Xuan Heaven that I have no malice, at most I will ask a few questions!"

"Hey, why are you accelerating? I'm serious, this king's heart can be seen by heaven..."

He really wasn't lying—this Cloud King wanted to inquire about the news of the Primordial Zhuzhou through Li Yeyu and his group. If he could know a few more forms of the other party, he could also get the exploration points of the Pioneer Space for nothing.

A group of money-attracting fat sheep, Bai Yuntian couldn't wait to capture them and enshrine them all.

But unfortunately, others didn't know this.

So, soon, Bai Yuntian, who was about to catch up with everyone, sensed a familiar aura suddenly emerging from the opponent's camp.

An aura originating from... another Zhuzhou!

At the same time, there were also various powerful Daoist arts!

——Supreme Miro Unsurpassed Pure and Quiet Righteous Art!

——Tai Xu Xuan Ming Divine Seal!

——Soul-Shaking Heart-Suppressing Art!

——Marici Heaven Revolving Desire Elephant Divine Power!

Weakening! Deceleration! Soul Stealing! Illusion!

Of course, there was also the most important one, the 'Primordial Zhuzhou Scale' shot out directly at more than fifteen times the speed of sound using electromagnetic acceleration!

Although the Cloud King was experienced in many battles and had seen many big scenes in other worlds, he had never seen this scene before—a group of Celestial Venerable Immortal God-level divine powers poured out like they didn't cost anything, immediately shocking him: "What's going on, why are these cultivators of the Celestial Realm all cultivating the righteous arts of immortal gods?!"

This was the wonderful use of the national cultivation and citizen points system: now the immortal god cultivation method was almost half-popularized worldwide. Slightly more excellent cultivators would not have a situation where the cultivation method and talent did not match. In this regard alone, Earth, which had smoothly completed the reform of the cultivation system, was tens of times stronger than the Jiu Xuan Realm.

Of course, these were actually small things. After all, judging from the Cloud King's senior explorer status and the realm of possibly breaking through to the Earth Immortal at any time, although these divine powers were strong, they were nothing more than that. A Zhuzhou breath could annihilate them all... But the most important thing was the scale that harbored the power of the Primordial Zhuzhou!

——What does this mean, could it be that seeing that I am Zhuzhou, they plan to use this thing as bait to make me stop tracking?

Thinking like this, seeing the scale flying towards him at a relative speed of more than thirty times the speed of sound per second, a big question mark suddenly appeared in Bai Yuntian's mind: "Then I really have to say thank you..."

But in the next moment, he didn't have that leisure.

Because the scale exploded.

The spiritual energy of the four poles conflicted, condensed, and then self-annihilated and exploded. In an instant, a huge and violent shockwave like the collapse of the sky and the earth immediately spread in all directions. A pure white circular light group completely enveloped Bai Yuntian, who hadn't had time to be shocked, in an instant. The incredible shockwave agitated the atmosphere and directly blew away and broke all the flowing clouds and trees in the ten directions of the world, prostrating on the ground.

Even the Earth exploration team who launched this attack felt like ants in front of giants at this time, about to be blown away by the other party's overwhelming breath.

Originating from the commemorative scales that Su Zhou gave to his student in charge, although they were not as good as the Two-Instrument Annihilation Scales he gave to his younger sister for glorious suicide, they also contained the power of Su Zhou's casual blow. The immense force burned all the air within a few kilometers in an instant. The overflowing spiritual energy wave even affected the Spirit Realm, directly sending Li Yeyu and his party back to the real world.

"What's the effect?!"

Even though the backlash caused by the breaking of the Clairvoyance Divine Power made Li Yeyu want to cry for his parents, she still gritted her teeth and endured the spiritual energy burning that was enough to temporarily reverse the meridians of her whole body, and asked in a deep voice: "Forget it, never mind, let's continue!"

In fact, it was very effective.

"Act, actually..."

Above the sky, a humanoid body was falling diagonally, directly knocked out of its true form. Bai Yuntian, who had returned to his human form, did not have the slightest resentment in his heart while vomiting blood from his serious injuries, but only the joy of a child seeing something new.

At this moment, all the Yuntian Guards chasing behind Bai Yuntian finally caught up with their king. Immediately, these guards exclaimed, and did not bother to chase the exploration team, but caught Bai Yuntian and began emergency treatment.

But at this moment, this Cloud King, who was seriously injured by Su Zhou's blow when he first entered the Earth Immortal realm, had only one thought in his heart.

"Scales... can actually explode?!"

Although he had lost track of the Celestial Realm exploration team, Bai Yuntian suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his heart: "So, this is Zhuzhou!"

"This is the power of Zhuzhou... ever-changing, not limited to form... so that's it!"

"It must be able to be used for the next time..."

At the same time, on the moon, Su Zhou suddenly let out a soft exclamation.

"Huh?"

He raised his head in surprise, his gaze seeming to penetrate the void and see the scene of the distant world: "Isn't this... my aura?"

"No, no, it's the aura of Zhuzhou—but there is also my aura erupting!"

"Ah, it seems that someone should have used the gifted scales to self-detonate, and the object it faced... happened to be a Zhuzhou?"

For a time, even Su Zhou became interested. He closed his observation organs, and then began to focus excitedly: "On this Zhuzhou, I also sensed the aura of the Pioneer! Not bad, this person knows his stuff. He actually exchanged for my bloodline in the Pioneer Space! Good, very good!"

"It's a pity that this Pioneer guy doesn't give me a kickback. He uses my bloodline but doesn't give me resources. I probably know why this guy was sealed... Hmph, if you don't give it to me, I'll take it myself!"

Smiling like this, the divine tree at this moment was lit up with a bright cyan-purple spiritual light all over.

The voice, which suddenly became deep, echoed throughout the world with a hint of a smile.

"Just right, taking advantage of the opportunity, you borrow my bloodline for a while, and I will borrow your explorer for a while!"
