Chapter 1673: Fairy Makes a Vow
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
In any major world, there would be both big and small challenges. Some came from Hell World, some from the interests and conflicts of neighboring worlds, or some were rivalries left over from ancient times.
This was so for the Tianchu Civilization.
The Tianchu Civilization was at the edge of Heaven World’s universe. It neighbored the Asura Race of Hell World. For 100,000 years, the fights between these two had never stopped.
The old leader of the Tianchu Civilization was an ancient strong figure. With him there, neither the enemies of the civilization nor the Asura Race dared to offend them due to fear.
But 3,000 years ago, the leader had a shockingly strong battle with another figure of the Asura Race. Even though he defeated the Asura, he’d also become seriously injured.
For the past 3,000 years, the Tianchu Civilization had been searching for divine medicine everywhere to cure the old leader.
But divine medicine was such a treasure and rarely seen in the four leading worlds. How could they easily find one?
Six hundred years ago, the Tianchu Civilization finally found a divine medicine in an ancient secret territory of the universe. Unfortunately, the medicine wasn’t mature yet. It needed a large amount of Holy Spring to quicken the ripening of the medicine.
The Tianchu Civilization used practically all their connections and wealth to buy Holy Springs, but the medicine still didn’t ripen.
If the old leader couldn’t be treated with divine medicine, he would be unable to pass through the Yuanhui Calamity that occurred once every 129,600 years. Once he died, the tempted enemies would take the chance to carve up the Tianchu Civilization.
There wasn’t much time before the leader’s Yuanhui Calamity.
Gu Feng had received this information, so that’s why he made such an impolite request.
He believed that Fairy Tianchu knew how serious the problem was and would cave.
If he could marry someone so beautiful and amazing as Fairy Tianchu, just thinking about lying in the same bed as her made fire burn in his stomach. He shook with excitement.
All the cultivators present belonged to the same sect—the Ancient Civilization Sect.
The leaders of the sect were either fairies or deities and goddesses. They had extremely high cultivations and statuses.
Seeing how arrogant Gu Feng was, they all grew upset.
Crown Prince Dizu was the most furious. He shot to his feet. “Gu Feng, don’t think that we have to use your spatial power to go into the Wind Atrium. To be honest, I’ve also invited a spatial cultivator and his attainments aren’t any lower than yours.”
There were many treasures in the Wind Atrium. It wasn’t only the Holy Spring. All the large forces were rubbing their hands, eager to do something big.
Thus, they’d all invited some spatial cultivators.
Crown Prince Dizu wasn’t from the Ancient Civilization Sect, but he was one of Fairy Tianchu’s top pursuers. When he’d entered the God-Naming Platform, he’d claimed to want to follow her everywhere.
He knew how important the Holy Spring was to Fairy Tianchu, so he worked hard in this aspect.
If he could help Fairy Tianchu get the Holy Spring, then he’d definitely get the beauty.
Hearing this, Gu Feng scoffed. “Not any lower than me? To be honest, no spatial cultivators under the Supreme Saint Realm, other than Gong Ziyan, dare to say they can defeat me. Even if there are, then they’re the old guys from the Space Godly Palace. But with their age, they wouldn’t come to the Truth Heavenly Domain at all.”
A black-robed elder walked out from behind Crown Prince Dizu. “Such confidence. I, Chou Gu, don’t believe you.”
Tap, tap.
The black-robed man named Chou Gu held a metal staff with a dragon hand and had a hunchback. He walked toward Gu Feng.
Each step that Chou Gu took seemed to be small, but spatial ripples actually spread from his legs. Each step was many feet wide.
This was different from the martial technique “Shrink Land into Inch.” Chou Gu used spatial power to shrink the land under his feet ten times.
“Shrink Land into Inch” was a martial technique that combined many hallucinations and physical techniques. It was a ploy.
Chou Gu’s skill stunned everyone present, thinking, Crown Prince Dizu’s spatial cultivator really isn’t bad.
“The spatial structure in the God-Naming Platform is extremely steady, but he can cross a dozen feet with one step. In the mortal world, wouldn’t he be able to cross hundreds of miles?”
Eyes shining, the Thousand Star Maiden sent a message to Zhang Ruochen. “Chou Gu’s spatial steps aren’t bad, right? Can you do it?”
Zhang Ruochen stared at Chou Gu’s metal boots and realized that the spatial ripples actually came from the bottom of those.
“Those metal boots must be a nice spatial treasure,” Zhang Ruochen said. “Chou Gu must’ve used the boots to shrink the land and cross a dozen feet.”
The Thousand Star Maiden’s eyes were unusual. She had Origin Divine Eyes. After Zhang Ruochen reminded her, she was able to see it immediately.
If Zhang Ruochen wanted to shrink the land, it was extremely easy. He just had to use Spatial Distortion to do it and didn’t need spatial treasures like those metal boots.
“Chou Gu must be very old,” Zhang Ruochen said. “How is he qualified to come cultivate in the Truth Godly Palace?”
The Thousand Star Maiden shook her head. “This man is only around 200 years old. He’s very young among Saint Kings and is like a teen among common people. However, his technique is special and makes him look old.”
Each major realm represented a different level in life.
Mortals could only live 100 years.
A Saint King’s lifespan was more than 1,000 years, so the definition of “young” was clearly different.
While the Thousand Star Maiden and Zhang Ruochen talked, Chou Gu and Gu Feng somehow started fighting. They actually battled with spatial techniques.
“Gravity Space.”
Chou Gu stuck his dragon-head metal staff into the ground. His Holy Qi and spatial rules poured into it, forming a special spatial domain—Gravity Spatial Domain.
Even Zhang Ruochen, sitting a dozen feet away, could feel that the gravity on him grew by 20 or 30 times. It was getting stronger too.
“Hundred times gravity,” Chou Gu roared softly.
The gravity of Heaven World was already higher than the mortal world. Only Saint Kings could fly short distances. One could imagine that if 100-times gravity weighed on a cultivator, his combat abilities would drop greatly.
“Interesting.”
Zhang Ruochen touched his chin with a finger and grew thoughtful.
Gu Feng retreated quickly and searched for a place with weaker gravity. He laughed loudly. “That’s all you can do? A mere Gravity Spatial Domain can’t restrict me.”
“Palm Explosion.”
Gu Feng raised his right hand. A spatial brand appeared on his palm and it spun quickly.
A moment later, a beam of light shot out of the spatial brand and flew toward Chou Gu.
It was visible to the naked eye that the space trembled in the path of the pillar of light. The Gravity Spatial Domain couldn’t repress it at all.
“Oh, no.”
Chou Gu’s expression changed dramatically. He hurriedly activated the spatial runes on the bottom of his feet to shrink the land and retreat quickly.
Kaboom!
The pillar of light exploded before Chou Gu. It released a great spatial storm and made Chou Gu spit out blood while retreating furiously.
Crown Prince Dizu streaked forward and pressed a hand on Chou Gu’s shoulder. He sent out a palm print with his other hand, stopping the terrible spatial storm.
Gu Feng cackled. “Crown Prince Dizu, is this the powerful spatial figure that you invited? If I hadn’t shown mercy, he would be dead by now.”
Chou Gu grew embarrassed. Putting his hands together, he said, “Your Highness, I am indeed unable to compare with him in spatial knowledge. Gu Feng has a powerful spatial brand. Probably only Spatial Manipulator Gong Ziyan can surpass him.”
“It’s okay, you tried your best!”
Crown Prince Dizu had Chou Gu step down to heal. His eyes turned cold and sharp. He prepared to punish Gu Feng personally.
Suddenly, he heard Fairy Tianchu’s voice in his ears. He stopped immediately and turned around. He gazed at the beauty with confused eyes.
The Holy Qi halo around Fairy Tianchu grew extremely bright, illuminating the sky above the Weapon-Refining Pavilion like it was daylight. A pure voice sounded. “The Holy Spring of the Wind Atrium is indeed very important to the Tianchu Civilization. Today, I, Luo Ji, swear that anyone who can give me 100,000 drops of Holy Spring can marry me. If I go against my word, let the world destroy me.”
Fairy Tianchu’s voice spread far and wide through the entire Free Trade Yard.
Hearing this, the unruly noise of the yard vanished, silencing.
Half a beat later, a tumultuous sound exploded. All the cultivators grew hot-blooded and excited.
“Did I hear correctly? Is that really Fairy Tianchu’s voice?”
“The Holy Spring is too important to the Tianchu Civilization. Even if she has to sacrifice herself, she must get the Holy Spring to help the old leader get past the Yuanhui Calamity.”
“Oh my, if I can marry the fairy, then I’ll definitely shock the Qiyuan Divine Dynasty and become the pride. My father will definitely make me crown prince.”
“Marrying Fairy Tianchu is like getting the support of the entire Tianchu Civilization. Even though they’re in danger now, if the old leader survives the Yuanhui Calamity, then they’ll definitely rise to a higher level. By then, the Tianchu Civilization will become much stronger.”
Fairy Tianchu’s vow was like a rock thrown into the lake, lifting thousands of waves.
It couldn’t be helped. She was beautiful and famous, with countless pursuers. It would make countless people jealous and envious to be able to travel with her. If you could marry her, then you would definitely be a winner at life.
The people who didn’t dare to venture into the Wind Atrium were all excited now. They rubbed their hands, wanting to try. It was indeed risky, but what if they somehow succeeded?
