Chapter 683 - Lord Dog’s Human Pet, The Origin of the Third Dimension
The figure was shrouded in a mist of red glow, making it difficult to see his features. Not to mention, the Wisdom aura swirling around him acted as a kind of barrier, forbidding anyone to look at him. Everyone on scene could feel that their mana was suspended while the laws of the universes in the surroundings were worshipping the figure. Everything and anything was filled with fearful respect for the Wisdom Elite. The ancestor stayed unmoving as he swept his piercing eyes across the crowd. The feeling was akin to having one’s soul stared deeply into, hair-standingly creepy.
“I, Murong Yuncheng, respectfully greet Murong ancestor!” Murong Yuncheng said, touching his forehead to the ground.
The other members of the Murong Clan were also kneeling on the ground. “We respectfully greet Murong ancestor.”
Murong Yuncheng pointed at Nanan and the rest of the group, and said, “It’s my fault for being too weak that we have to disturb Murong ancestor’s meditation retreat. However, we have no choice for they are too powerful for us and dares to challenge the Murong Clan.”
“Yes, I’m aware of all that,” said the Murong ancestor calmly. His voice was not loud but seemed to boom throughout the air. He looked at Nanan and the others and his gaze became curious when he saw the shovel and ladle.
‘How did they come to possess not one but two Wisdom Ultimate Treasures? They should be as rare as Wisdom Elites due to the difficulty of birthing them. Not to mention these people’s cultivation are truly extraordinary and have a profound comprehension of Wisdom. They must have come across some heaven-defying opportunities. I must get the treasures for myself. I’ll try to subdue them first and if they don’t hand it over, I’ll forcefully take it from them!’ The Murong ancestor thought without revealing anything on his face in order to prevent anyone from finding out his plans.
“I think you’re all unparalleled in talent, and the cultivation must not have been easy. For that, I’m willing to give you a chance for me to spare your life. All you have to do is kneel down before me, offer me your Origins of Life and swear your allegiance to the Murong Clan!” The Murong ancestor said.
“Hahahaha!” Xiao Chengfeng could not hold back his laughter anymore. “Like grandfather, like son. Can’t the two of you say anything else apart from the tired old line? Or is this some kind of joke?” He became even bolder when dealing with the Wisdom Elite. “Do you know what happened to Murong Yuncheng after he said that to me? He nearly had to kneel down and call me grandpa!”
He could behave like this because he was immune to the suppression of the Wisdom Elite after having observed the battle between the Eldritch Daji, Fire Phoenix, and the Eldritch Wisdom Elite. So what if there was another Wisdom Elite standing before him? Why, the expert could kill him with a thought.
“You fool! Even granting you death would be too much of a mercy now!” The Murong ancestor said. He was prepared to wipe out Xiao Chengfeng’s existence but, to his surprise, Xiao Chengfeng had already disappeared from where he was standing and was hiding behind a dog. ‘What the h*ll is happening?’
“What can a mere Wisdom Elite do about us?!” Jiang Liu said cockily. As soon as he said that, he too, quickly hid behind the dog. Then, a man wearing a white robe and mask went to stand behind the dog with his hands folded behind his back and said to the Murong ancestor, “Who will reach the peak at the end of the immortal road, Behold it is Xing Ya in his immeasurable Wisdom. Today will be the day you become emptiness!”
Everyone thought they must be crazy! Totally crazy! Their cockiness seemed to know no bounds. The scene was deathly silent now. Everyone either had their eyes wide-opened, or jaws dropped to the ground, as they looked at Xiao Chengfeng and others in shock.
‘They must have been prepared to behave so impudently to the Wisdom Elite!’
‘Is this their last act of defiance before dying?’
‘What’s the use of hiding behind that dog anyways?’
The Murong ancestor remained calm and did not say anything else. However, without even moving his hand, he had already summoned an all-consuming powerful aura to sweep across Xiao Chenfeng and the group. With one thought, he had gathered all the Wisdom aura and millions of laws of the universe, to wipe away Xiao Chenfeng and the others from the face of the world.
However, he quickly realized something was not right. The power he had just summoned was enough to suppress a Heavenly Realm fighter, therefore, it stood to reason that even if Xiao Chengfeng and the others did not die from it, they should at least be heavily injured and yet, nothing happened to them. They were still looking at him with eyes as innocent as a babe’s.
The Murong ancestor’s heart sank and he scoffed. Heaven and earth seemed to have sensed his fury and immediately sent down lightning and thunder. The terrifying laws of the universe gathered themselves again, and this time there was no doubt about the murderous aura they contained. They transformed into a destructive beam of light as they shot towards Xiao Chenfeng and the rest of the group.
“He’s so powerful! Only a Wisdom Elite could summon ten thousand laws of the universe with a thought.”
“My strongest ultimate spell is not even as strong as one of his thoughts.”
“Not only that, the laws of the universe were imbued with the Power of Wisdom. This must be the end of the road for them.”
The crowd trembled and felt chills running down their spines when they felt a shred of the aura. They all turned to look at Xiao Chenfeng and the rest of them but discovered, to their shock, they were not affected by the impending attack. Instead, they were giving the dog a massage while saying, “Please save us, Lord Dog. They didn’t play fair at all.”
“It’s time for you to take the stage, Lord Dog. Take him out!”
“Who will reach the peak at the end of the immortal road, Behold it is Lord Dog in his immeasurable Wisdom. Lord Dog’s power is boundless and unassailable!”
‘What are they doing? Have they gone crazy?’ The crowd thought.
The destructive light beam, like a hand of god blanketing the sky, was getting nearer and nearer to them. However, just when the light beam was about one and half metre away, it began to silently and slowly dissipate until it had completely disappeared and the world returned to its previous peacefulness. Everyone thought that what happened before must be a dream.
All the members in the Murong Clan could not believe their eyes too. As for Murong ancestor, he turned to look at the dog who was lying peacefully on the ground and his eyes were instantly filled with disbelief too! ‘Wait a minute…is that dog a Wisdom Elite too?!’ Only a Wisdom Elite could suppress the attack of another Wisdom Elite.
Blackie slowly stood up from the ground and pointed his paw at Xiao Chenfeng, Jiang Liu, and Xing Ya. “Who gave you the right to play with my human pet?” He asked the Murong ancestor coldly.
‘No, it can’t be. This ugly looking bald dog in short leather pants is actually a Wisdom Elite?’ Everyone felt their world view to be turned upside down as a chill intent blanketed the sky which made them all break out in goosebumps.
“How is this possible for this mongrel to be a Wisdom Elite?”
“It might be a mongrel. Maybe it’s some sort of divine beast that we have not come across before.”
“Ah, I get it now. They’re all the human pets of the Wisdom Elite dog. That’s why they dare to act so cocky before.”
They have been shocked again and again today and have started to question their lives.
They saw Blackie doing the catwalk and suddenly felt him to be very majestic and deserving of respect. Only Xiao Chenfeng, Jiang Liu and Xing Ya felt differently. The three of them were all red in the face and wished they could fight Blackie now for calling them his human pets.
“My eyesight must be getting bad. How could I not notice this dog is a Wisdom Elite?” The Murong ancestor muttered. His face became serious as he gazed fixedly at Blackie. “Even so, you’ll still need to pay for causing trouble in the Murong Clan.”
Blackie ignored him and said, “Hand over the Heaven Spiritual Rice and the stamp. Then, kill yourself.” He had no idea what kind of rice it was but whatever, he would just bring it back to his master.
Everyone became even more shocked when Blackie opened his mouth. They never expected those words would come out of him and this had the effect of making them feel as if a hammer had slammed down on their heads. No one had ever dared to speak like this to the Murong ancestor before.
“Hahahaha!” The Murong ancestor was so furious to the point there was nothing to do but laugh, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the universe. “My, you’re nothing but a crazy dog. You can’t seriously expect me to take your words seriously, right?”
He then activated his force and his murderous aura stained the whole sky red. He had displayed the peak of a Wisdom Elite’s killing intent and it was truly terrifying. Everyone thought that he was absolutely incensed by what Blackie had said but it was not like that. What really happened was that he would have to kill them all to prevent them from getting their hands on the stamp for that stamp held the secret to all the seventh dimension!
Ever since the Murong Clan had gotten their hands on the stamp many thousand years ago, Murong ancestor had been secretly refining it. As the time passed, he discovered more and more horrible secrets about the stamp and even he as a Wisdom Elite found it getting more difficult to control it.
It was due to the stamp that Murong Clan was able to produce so many Heavenly Realm fighters and also the reason for his ever-increasing power. After reading as much materials as he could about the stamp and asking around, he finally came to the conclusion that the stamp might be the third dimension’s Origins of Wisdom!
The reason the Eldritch kept on waging wars against other dimensions was because they wanted to force out the Origins of Wisdom from each world. Out of the seven dimensions, only the third dimension was completely destroyed. That was why many fighters were willing to risk their lives to go into the broken third dimension to look for its Origins of Life for there would be no stopping them from skyrocketing to the Wisdom Dictator if they got their hands on it.
He had no idea how the stamp got here but why should that matter when he had already gotten his hand on it. There was no way in h*ll he would hand over the stamp or let anybody in on the secret but if there was a threat of losing it, he would do everything in his power to eliminate those threats.
At that thought, his killing intent exploded even more. He was prepared to kill everyone on scene to be on the safe side. With a cruel expression on his face, he raised his hand, and immediately a mirror appeared out of thin air, reflecting the dazzling sunlight. Although the mirror did not look large, it ‘felt’ very large, as if it could blot out the whole sky.
“It’s the Dao Disintegration Mirror!”
“Everything the mirror shines will have their Dao disintegrated and then they will eventually turn to dust. Even a Spiritual Treasure would not be immune from decay.”
“Murong ancestor must be really angry to use the mirror!”
Everybody was quaking in their boots when they saw the mirror.
Suddenly, waves of painful screams could be heard from all around.
“Ahh! My cultivation is disintegrating! Why did the Murong Clan attack me?”
“Oh no! The Dao Disintegration Mirror had engulfed us in its light too!”
“Murong Clan, I’m the elder of the Immortal Wind Pavilion! Are you planning to make an enemy out of all of us by doing this?”
“Have mercy! I don’t know anything at all. Don’t kill me!”
“Run! Run for your lives!”
The screams kept coming and coming. Once the mirror light passed over them, they felt their mana quickly flowing out of them and in a blink of an eye, turned into dried up old people before turning into dust.
Those who were further away from the scene were not spared from the mirror light too but were luckier, as they only suffered heavy injuries akin to the one Tong Tian had before. Murong ancestor did not fear any revenge for there were only a handful of Heavenly Realm fighters amongst them and the others were made up of Quasi-saints which posed no threat for him.
Besides, the Murong Clan could also come up with a plausible reason for their deaths which was exactly what they did. Murong Yuncheng smiled and with a voice filled with mock-regret said, “A Wisdom Elite dog attacked the Murong Clan during the banquet and there were many casualties. It was a good thing Murong ancestor appeared on time to kill the dog as a way of avenging those who were killed or hurt by it. After the dust has settled, we will send you some of the dog meat to your sects. You’re welcome. ”
The Murong ancestor ignored everyone’s screams. His main target was still Blackie. The mirror was shining directly on Blackie and others but, no matter how the mirror light shined on them, they still maintained an air of serenity, as if the mirror light did not affect them at all. He could not understand how this was possible and went to check on the mirror. What he saw shocked him for reflected on the mirror was not Blackie and the others’ but a bunch of mosaics.
“How is this possible? What is this thing blocking my mirror?” The Murong ancestor asked in a shocked tone.
Jiang Liu laughed gloatingly, “Hahaha, we have the protection of the mosaic. Your mirror is useless against us.”
“Nothing in this universe can wipe out the mosaics. Not even your mirror light! So don’t even think you can hurt us with it,” said Xiao Chenfeng cockily.
Blackie licked his paws and slowly lifted it. He then looked fixedly at Murong ancestor as he was bringing his paw done. Immediately, a giant dog paw apparition, imbued with unparalleled force and Wisdom, peeked out from the sky and rushed down to the ground. The dog paw apparition did not even have to reach the ground before the Murong manor collapsed to the ground in the shape of a giant dog paw.
All members of the Murong Clan were pale in the face and gushing out blood and this was only a shred of Blackie’s power. Those who did not possess high cultivation instantly exploded and even the Heavenly Realm fighters found it difficult to stand after that attack. Murong ancestor ignored the life and death of his clan members and looked up at the dog paw apparition with narrowed eyes. He swished his robe and terrifying visions began to appear around him. He then raised his hand and with a flick of his wrist, a golden stamp appeared in his palm.
