Maiden Galaxy

Chapter 490: Orion And Scorpius Part Forever, Ten Thousand Long And Ancient Nights

Under Zhu Yuanzhang's powerful pressure, everyone could barely protect themselves. They could only stare helplessly as she went to kill Su Shi.

"Future Sage Of Poetry, follow the Ten Thousand Sages Hall into eternity." Zhu Yuanzhang coldly reached for her, showing no protective feelings for the fairer sex. However, in Star World, which considered females superior, this phrase did not exist.

All of a sudden, Dark Yellow Sword Qi flew towards Zhu Yuanzhang in the nick of time, stopping Zhu Yuanzhang's palm. A shadow suddenly manifested and shielded Su Wanyang from the side.

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted, her sun and moon pupils spreading their might in all directions. The sun and moon appeared side by side on her face, and she reached forth again.

The Black Turtle True Spirit manifested. Chen Mo threw an earth-shattering punch.

The punch contained a tiger's rocking roar.

The Four Symbols White Tiger fiercely pounced upon Zhu Yuanzhang. Chen Mo's fists moved continuously, forming the Bagua. Combined with the White Tiger's True Spirit, the Bagua cut into Zhu Yuanzhang's fist like a blade and repelled her.

"Hm!!" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at this man who surprisingly dared to look her in the eye.

In Star World, such a person could not possibly exist.

"Go!!" Chen Mo yelled. Although the girl normally had sparred several times with Su Mian in the past, that was only without life and death killing intent. She had never felt herself in danger then. This was the first time Su Shi had come into direct confrontation with a top-notch Star General. For a moment, she was frozen.

Hearing Chen Mo's thunderous roar, Su Wanyang finally roused as if from a dream. The girl bit her lip, brandished her Faded Moon Dredged Star Sword, and used Earth Rank Vicissitudes Of Life. The double-layered sword-shadows separated space and maneuvered towards Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Aim to the northwest, shoot Sirius!"

Su Wanyang shouted.

The sword-shadows became two astral arrows.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes narrowed. The radiance of the sun and moon easily broke the Earth Rank. Su Wanyang did not dare press on her attack overzealously and promptly turned tail. How could Zhu Yuanzhang allow her to do as she pleased. She used Yellow Rank "Insatiable Flaying." Her killing intent came tearing over, piercing through space.

"Hè." Tao Yuanming appeared in midair, a clear qi ascending. As if it had come from creation itself, that clear qi dispelled Zhu Yuanzhang's Yellow Rank.

"Su Shi, hurry and achieve the Hundred Sages Simultaneously Shout, only then can we avert this disaster." Tao Yuanming shouted.

At this time, the hundred Duality Yin Yang Pieces stopped this Yellow Rank. The chess pieces separated, forming a Primeval Chaos Chess Array, its eye forming a tribulation.

Sage Of Chess Huang Longshi hovered in midair, her eyes like Yin and Yang, her Star Energy excited.

The primeval chaos chess state trapped Zhu Yuanzhang, and piece after piece became ancient thunder rolls from primordial chaos. These thunderbolts were red as fire, like serpents, all soaring towards Zhu Yuanzhang in an unstoppable force.

Heaven Rank.

Heavenly Tribulation Ring!!!

…

"You alright." Chen Mo grabbed Su Wanyang and fled far away, astonished to see Huang Longshi use Heaven Rank. The sage terrace was her chessboard and everyone on it her pieces. The boundless Nine Heavenly Tribulations endlessly pounded Zhu Yuanzhang. Although she was a spiritual power Star General, this Heaven Rank was sufficient to kill a True Phoenix peak Star General.

Su Wanyang was pale. She ripped free of Chen Mo's hand, "I will go achieve the Hundred Sages Simultaneously Shout. Wait until Elder Sister can deal with Zhu Yuanzhang."

Chen Mo was not very relieved about her. Su Shi was Su Mian's close friend, so he felt obligated to protect her.

But the topics on the sage steles were too ancient. To use the sages' aspirations for comprehension necessitated time and composure. Su Shi, Liu Fengxi, and Tao Yuanming entered their most tranquil states in front of the sage steles, but under this kind of situation, stabilitywas difficult to maintain.

There was a earth-shattering noise.

Zhu Yuanzhang's hand thundered.

The chessboard disintegrated, the heavenly tribulation collapsed.

Sage Of Chess Huang Longshi was overwhelmed with shock.

"Su Shi, Liu Yong, hurry and solve the sage steles!!" Sage Of Calligraphy Wang Xizhi was the strongest of the Seven Sages. "Ink Hero" and "Snow Clarity" wrote cursive script, the characters splitting Heaven and Earth like Pangu. They descended upon the sage terrace, unleashing a chaotic rupturing sound.

Su Wanyang was indeed worthy of being a character capable of the Hundred Sages Simultaneously Shout. At this critical juncture, she had already solved the first stele's topic.

"We are like mayflies in Heaven and Earth, a grain of millet adrift in a vast ocean!!"

The girl imbued her Divine Intent. The stele's light suddenly dimmed, and the sage energy in the stele entered Su Shi's body. At the same time, Liu Yong also smoothly solved the second stele, the "Ode to Selling the Sea."

At this time, Tao Yuanming also stopped in front of a sage stele. The Taiyi Hermit's presence was practically hidden; no one was aware of her existence. In such an urgent situation, the woman calmly pondered.

"Though the whole world is impure, I alone am pure. Though all people are drunk, I alone am lucid." As expected of a hermit. Seeing this topic, her Divine Intent entered the stele, and she immediately wrote her level of comprehension. But just in this moment that seemed to span a long stroll over a lake, she suddenly heard, "Look out!"

Tao Yuanming did not hesitate to activate "Existence Outside Three Worlds," but this time, she was unable to hide. Zhu Yuanzhang used her powerful force to trap this void outside of the world, leaving the Taiyi Hermit with nowhere to escape.

"Punishing Heaven dances with his axe, his fierce determination ever firm!!"

Tao Yuanming entered an ancient sage-like state, as if the ancient god Punishing Heaven was dancing with his battle axe, fiercely attacking Zhu Yuanzhang's power. In the end, she hacked away the power of the forbiddance, and Tao Yuanming found a chance to catch her breath.

"Not good." Chen Mo had wanted to go save Tao Yuanming, but a Sun and Moon True Dragon flew over. Zhu Yuanzhang waved her hand, and she already appeared in front of Chen Mo, slamming her palm at him.

Chen Mo used the Qiankun Seal to counter.

His palm bones fractured.

Zhu Yuanzhang's palm attack repelled Chen Mo. Even the Black Turtle was unable to stop ZHu Yuanzhang's power. If not for the two spirits in his body, that ordinary slap just now would have destroyed him.

Incredible.

This was a first-rate Star Marquis. Even a True Spirit Projection would be unparalleled in strength.

Chen Mo was completely outmatched.

Just at the moment Zhu Yuanzhang's palm sent Chen Mo back, the Sun and Moon True Dragons had already quickly arrived around Tao Yuanming. Each time Zhu Yuanzhang struck, she showed no mercy, unleashing Dark Rank "Great Ancestor Governs Proudly."

That thought of Punishing Heaven conjured from her Realm was disintegrated by the palm strike, and the remaining force struck Tao Yuanming.

Tao Yuanming was already True Phoenix Ninth Stage Realm, barely blocking this attack, but the next second, that purple qi in Zhu Yuanzhang's palm also attacked, destroying Tao Yuanming's physical body.

A True Spirit was then dragged out from the woman's moon pupil, instantly sealed into the third sage stele.

Tao Yuanming was one of prestige and virtue among spiritual power Star Generals. She had attended multiple Literary Excellence Conventions, and her reputation did not lose out to the current Seven Sages Of The Bamboo Grove in the slightest. With her death, the sage terrace's surrounding cultivators were at the limits of despair.

Fury, powerful fury ignited the entire expanse of the venue.

Around the Ten Thousand Sages Hall, the countless cultivators and Star Generals witness with their own eyes the deaths of sages. Zhu Yuanzhang was absolutely without scruples, and the anger in their hearts was already surging.

Wang Anshi could not bear to watch Zhu Yuanzhang act as she pleased, "Everyone, heed my call. We are changing tactics. Smash the Ten Thousand Sages Hall's array and rescue the sages!!" The Completely Confucian Scholar waved her arms and shouted, her voice resounding like thunder, immediately receiving the responses of all spiritual generals and cultivators.

Star Generals able to enter the Lesser Court Hymns area were all the most outstanding or revered in Poetry Realm. They absolutely were unable to watch the sages be slaughtered in front of them.

Everyone used their powers, unleashing various techniques.

Endless Star Energy seemed to descend upon the Ten Thousand Sages Hall like a heavenly river.

The Ten Thousand Sages Hall activated a barrier. The barrier trembled like a frothing lake. All the Star Energy was surprisingly absorbed without a trace, but Wang Anshi was determined, continuing to call for everyone to strike the array.

Zhu Yuanzhang watched the cultivators and Star Generals use their Star Energy and magic energy to pound the Ten Thousand Sages Hall. All of a sudden, Chen Mo sensed all of their attack power was being absorbed into the sage steles on the terrace, and all of the sage sculptures seemed to awaken, their eyes beginning to glow.

"This is bad, Zhu Yuanzhang is using the outside Star Generals' enormous Star Energy to awaken the Ten Thousand Sages Hall." Chen Mo's expression changed, and he immediately realized Zhu Yuanzhang's plan.

"What?" Hearing Chen Mo's words, everyone's expressions were unsightly.

The Sun And Moon True Dragon coldly glared at Chen Mo.

"Oh, a man like you truly is a bit talented. Not bad. The Ten Thousand Sages Hall requires enormous Star Energy, and the Star Energy of the Literary Excellence Convention's best spiritual power Star Generals is the best way." Zhu Yuanzhang coolly watched the results.

The reason she killed the sages in front of so many watching eyes was for the purpose of angering these spiritual generals into attacking the Ten Thousand Sages Hall, to feed their powerful Star Energy to the sages' power that had been asleep for millennia. Hence, this would make the quiet Universe Eternity Spirit Treasure fully awaken.

This was similar to a machine abandoned for many years. When the machine was very well maintained, just a little bit of "fuel" was needed to be able to make the machine move again.

"Stop right now!!" Su Mian also sensed something was not right. Under everyone's assault, the Ten Thousand Sages Hall apparently expand.

Dream In A Millennium sensed something dangerous, but at this time, there was already no one able to stop the out of control spiritual generals. In particular, these numerous spiritual generals were all Star Generals who benefitted from the sages and were unable to watch them get killed by Zhu Yuanzhang.

The situationw as beyond control.

"You alright." A soft voice came from the side. Liu Fengxi had asked Chen Mo via Sound Transmission.

In this critical moment, "White Clothed Court Official" was eerily calm.

"Hurry and finish the Ten Thousand Sages Hall." Chen Mo only had this as a solution.

"No, there is not enough time in the current situation to go comprehend the sages' Realm." Liu Fengxi shook her head.

The trial normally still had room to ponder, or even the assistance of the sages, but now, everyone was occupied saving themselves. Life and death were decided naught by a thought, and Zhu Yuanzhang's powerful Purple Rose Star Energy pervaded the entire area. Even if the sages tried with all their might, they still felt very strained.

At the second sage stele, two girls hailed as peerless geniuses had sunken into a predicament.

Chen Mo came between them and looked at the characters on the stele.

"Though the whole world is impure, I alone am pure. Though all people are drunk, I alone am lucid…Hm? This is?" Chen MO blinked, as if he recalled something. All of a sudden, the sage terrace was without light, falling into eternal night.

In this darkness, Chen Mo was surprised to sense his Star Energy completely vanish.

Sage Of Poetry Du Fu shouted, using another Heaven Rank.

"Orion And Scorpius" combined, and "Sage Of Poetry" Du Fu unleashed her strongest Poetry Realm, "Never Able To Meet, Moving Like Orion And Scorpius." In Star World, the Shen Star Mansion presided the west, the Shang the east. The two occupied separate areas, and when one was up, the other was down, eternally unable to meet. But at this moment, under Du Fu's Heaven Rank, the Shen and Shang stars became one, as if altering immutable natural law.

The combined Star Weapon "Shen Shang" gathered endless darkness, becoming a basin-sized black hole that instantly gnawed at Zhu Yuanzhang.

Heaven Rank: Ancient Antiquity Like Long Dark Nights!!¹

Once devoured by Ancient Antiquity Like Long Dark Nights, even an eternally indestructible Star Name would inevitably fall forever into "nothingness."

Never able to meet, moving like Shen and Shang!

Just when Shen Shang was in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and about to devour her, the Sun And Moon True Dragon opened her palm. The sun and moon surprisingly became even larger fireballs that engulfed up the Shen Shang's power.

The Ancient Antiquity Like Long Night's power fell silent in Zhu Yuanzhang's palm.

Purple Rose Qi like the ancestral dragon fought back and devoured the Shen Shang.

"Huh???"

Du Fu was astonished.

"Die!"

Zhu Yuanzhang brandished her palm. The ancestral dragon formed from purple qi pierced through Du Fu's body. The woman vomited blood, and her Star Name immediately went dark.

"Du Fu!!"

The other sages wanted to save her, but Zhu Yuanzhang flung her hand. The Sun and Moon True Dragons slammed into Du Fu's body, sending her into the stele that Chen Mo, Su Shi and Liu Yong were examining. The three could only watch helplessly as the Sage Of Poetry was killed.

"Sage Of Poetry" Du Fu's Destined Star Name immediately fell silent.

"This is bad, that Purple Rose Qi is the Ancestral Dragon's!!"

"How can this be."

The other sages were endlessly stupefied to see the Purple Rose Qi. Zhu Yuanzhang was frighteningly powerful on her own. To be in possession of the Ancestral Dragon's Purple Rose Qi, this was the first time they had tasted despair.

"Today, the Seven Sages Of The Bamboo Grove will forever cease to exist!"

Zhu Yuanzhang coldly declared.
