Only to see that in the silence, the black and evil energy wrapping around the bright white star was getting thicker and thicker.
However, from start to finish, it was excluded from the star.
He could vaguely feel that this star was being protected by an inexplicably powerful force. Evil was hard to offend, the evil energy wouldn't increase.
Kong Rui heaved a sigh of relief. Since it was such a sign, then it would be scary but not dangerous.
However, whether or not they could pass this calamity depended on the Monster King.
For Kong Yao to not be affected by the evil energy till now, she was definitely protected by the King Path Luck of this kid.
If Zong Shou was safe, then his daughter would naturally be fine. However, if anything happened to the Monster King, Yao 'er wouldn't be able to survive alone!
Placing down the divination money, Kong Rui frowned slightly. Logically speaking, with the stars, Yao 'er should have a high chance of breaking through her own fate. However, in his heart, he felt really uneasy.
"Astronomer Kong, what is the outcome?"
The person who asked came from outside the altar. An old man in his seventies was sitting there, asking anxiously.
It was Zong Ling. He was originally the priest of Gantian Mountain and was in charge of Kong Rui.
However, when Zong Shou established the country and built a cabinet with six ministries, he became the Head of Taichang Temple to manage the Imperial Astronomer.
However, he knew that his ability to observe the stars and predict people's fate was far from that of others.
This was why after Kong Rui took over, Zong Ling let go of everything and left all these divination matters to Kong Rui.
At this moment, not only him, beside the altar, Hu Qianqiu, Chai Yuan, the elders and ministers of the country were all anxiously waiting.
Renbo was also waiting at the side, his brows tightly furrowed. Confucius does not speak of strange forces and gods — the Sage once said that one should keep a respectful distance from ghosts and gods!
He originally didn't care much about divination. However, today was just too important for Gantian Mountain.
However, if they waited for news from Huizhou, it would take half a day.
He took a deep look at Kong Rui. This person had just come to Gantian Mountain for half a year.
However, he was able to predict people's fates and predict their fortune.
In a short time, everyone in Gantian Mountain knew about it.
Along with his daughter, not only was she taken in as a concubine by Zong Shou, but she was also trusted and controlled millions of troops.
Which was why at this moment, even elders like Hu Qianqiu and Chai Yuan had to be respectful.
This person's attainments in the field of magic might truly be extraordinary.
Perhaps he could really make a deduction before the news from the other side came back.
Hearing this, Kong Rui shook his head and looked in front of him without saying a word. A hundred feet away, there was a three-legged bronze cauldron.
Below burned a raging purple flame, known as the purest Purple Heart Coal. After it burned, not a single trace of ash would be left behind. The flame was even more powerful, and it was often used to offer sacrifices to the heavens.
At this moment, there was nothing else in the enormous cauldron. There was only a completely intact tortoise shell the size of three palms.
The evolution of the celestial bodies often corresponded to changes in the human world. His attainments in this aspect were not inferior to Zhong Xuan.
However, among all the arts of divination, in terms of accuracy, the turtle divination was still the best!
The tortoise shell didn't crack, so even he didn't dare to make a conclusion.
He waited quietly for a full hour, but there was still no movement within the cauldron.
Impatience gradually appeared on the faces of the people outside the altar.
Kong Rui also frowned slightly. The tortoise shell he used was a Grade Five Hidden Spirit Turtle.
Although it was far from the Xuanwu bloodline, its lifespan could be counted in tens of thousands of years. The shell was one of the best divination materials.
However, why was it so slow today?
Thinking about it for a moment, Kong Rui suddenly stood up and walked beside the copper cauldron.
He suddenly cut open his wrist, and threads of fresh blood dripped into the cauldron.
Moments later, with a cracking sound, dozens of cracks appeared on the tortoise shell.
Kong Rui looked carefully, and then his tense heart finally relaxed.
Only to see that the tortoise shell was covered in cracks. Streaks of deep scars broke toward the center. However, when the purple flames were extinguished, the central region was still perfectly fine.
The King was in the center and this place was fine, which meant that Zong Shou would be able to survive this calamity.
Then, he looked carefully in the other directions. He saw that the cracks were like many knives, spears, swords, and halberds, pointing towards the center. It was a shocking sight.
A moment later, Kong Rui's eyelids suddenly twitched.
He saw that there were some changes on the tortoise shell. When it slowly cooled down, the right side of the shell was still black. However, a small half of the left side had turned red!
Zong Shou's King Energy carried the Fire Virtue. The country today was also filled with Chi.
Was this a sign that the Monster King was going to become the Southeast Overlord of this world?
The moment such a thought rose up, Kong Rui didn't have time to analyze the rest. He only felt that there was a bolt of lightning in the sky that suddenly struck down.
It smashed the three-legged copper cauldron into pieces.
Kong Rui stumbled, taking several steps back before he was able to stabilize himself. His face was ashen white as he looked into the sky.
The Heavens were trying to kill him, not wanting him to know the secrets! As they said, the secrets of the Heavens couldn't be revealed easily!
He instantly hesitated, should he tell these people what he saw just now?
In the next instance, Kong Rui met Xuanyuan Yiren's pure and hopeful eyes.
He could only shake his head in annoyance, "Ruler will definitely be fine this time! I estimate that in another four to five hours, we will receive news of our victory … "
The moment these words were said, the people outside of the altar all relaxed.
Kong Rui was in deep thought, thinking back to the weird scenes that he saw before the copper cauldron was destroyed.
This Zong Shou's fate was related to the stars of Heaven and Earth, affecting the fate and destiny of the Cloud World in the next ten thousand years which was why there were such changes today.
However, at this moment, he was still unable to find out where Zong Shou's fate star was.
He could only guess that there were numerous weapons, ocean amounts of corpses, blood and fire coexisting, burning everything …
※ ※ ※
Almost at the same time, a cauldron exploded in a Daoist temple in the imperial capital nearly a hundred thousand kilometers away.
The nine hundred and ninety-nine zhang tall Stargazing Platform stood tall. Looking down from here, one could see a huge Yin Yang Eight Trigrams Stone Formation.
At this moment, on the platform, Taishang Grand Teacher Zhongxuan seemed to have suddenly aged by dozens of years.
His hair and beard were all white and his face was filled with exhaustion.
His eyelids trembled as he raised his brow and looked at the broken cauldron a hundred feet away as well as the burn marks from the lightning strike. His eyes were filled with disbelief.
Then how could the east win? Although they were defending in a dangerous place, they had no reinforcements and were also being attacked from the front and back.
Jia Mingluo looked down on people of the same grade. In the Cloud World, he was a top expert who had no opponents.
Even if they couldn't win, they wouldn't lose!
Along with the various arrangements of the Taoist Faction, this person would definitely die!
He remembered that yesterday, his Majesty had gathered the Taishang generals and officials to work together to deduce the battle situation.
The best result would be to persevere until noon. After noon, they would collapse and all of them would die …
What was the chance of the Gantian Army winning?
If they couldn't stop the Night Demons from outside, then they should just lead them into the Cloud World.
Not only could they restrict the rising strong country in Donglin Cloud Continent, but they could also cause the east vassals of the Central Cloud Continent to shift their focus to the east and not dare to act rashly.
It could allow the Taishang to take out enough troops and time to calm down their internal problems.
… This was the country policy that his Majesty and the various officials had discussed.
However, thinking about it now, he only found it amusing. It was too much of a given …
Zhongxuan's eyes were filled with confusion. He barely stood up and then walked shakily towards the giant cauldron.
Just now, he wanted to peek into the secrets of the heavens, using 90% of his Soul Power.
When the Heavenly Tribulation descended, the backlash they received was also incomparably heavy. It nearly caused his physical body to shatter.
At this moment, he forced himself to walk in front of the cauldron placed in the Yin Yang fish diagram.
Although the three-legged cauldron had melted, there were still some broken turtle shell pieces left.
The reason why it wasn't destroyed was because the intent it contained could be shown to people.
Zhongxuan picked it up and placed it in front of him to piece it back together. After a long while, he heaved a heavy sigh.
"As expected, he is safe and sound, as expected, he is the Southeast Overlord …"
Speaking of which, Monster King Zong Shou was most probably going to win this battle!
If he didn't, his body would be in danger of dying. His elite troops would all die under Seven Cloud Mountain. Where did the Southeast Overlord come from?
This red intent spread out and directly reached the southeast of the Cloud Continent …
However, no matter how he guessed, he couldn't think of how Zong Shou won.
At this moment, a streak of starlight stabbed into his eyes.
Zhongxuan raised his head in shock, following which his gaze locked onto the Alkaid at the handle of the Big Dipper.
"Army Breaking appearing, suppressing ten thousand troops. Lighting up the southeast, what a familiar aura. Who does it correspond to? Oh right, it is Kong Yao. In my memory, there is only her … "
However, when did this woman's bad luck end?
At this moment, although she was in danger, she was actually safe. Someone was using luck to protect her.
He remembered that this woman did indeed have much of the Army Breaking Star's vengeful energy. However, as a woman, she shouldn't have been able to take it. As such, her life was bad and she should have died early.
How did she suddenly become a Light Breaking Star? Causing the stars to shine brightly?
These changes were really incomprehensible.
Speaking of which, this woman had led a million troops to fight against the Night Demons. She planned out the strategy and decided the battle from a thousand miles away. Her ability to use troops really made one's eyes light up.
Even the Taishang and a few experienced old generals exclaimed that they weren't as good as her.
To say that this woman was a Light Shaking Realm descendant, she did have some right.
Thinking about it, Zhongxuan suddenly had an idea. He felt his chest tighten and a mouthful of purple blood was spat out from his mouth.
So that was the case, so that was the case! This woman was not only a commander talent, but she needed to lead a huge army to be able to show it!
Her fate was also really obscure. She needed to lead a million troops and have the seal of a country before she could truly become an Army Breaking Star.
He was unparalleled in divination and was able to predict one's fate. Who knew that he had misjudged this woman!
A famous commander, a military god descending. This Kong Yao should have been the pillar of their Taishang! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
