Chapter 1527

Great Formless Fire!

Li Luo gazed at the white-gold fire seed coalescing within the furnace at the center of the Ten Thousand Forms Wheel, and deep within his heart surged a wave of excitement—he had finally obtained the "Great Formless Divine Forging Art," and with it, this Great Formless Fire.

With this fire, he could now forge his fourth postnatal form.

Only now did he sense that his so-called Ten Thousand Forms Seed had reached a preliminary state of completeness.

Yet, something was still missing before it could be perfected.

"Ten Thousand Forms Golden Core."

Li Luo pondered briefly and understood what was lacking.

Li Luo had a faint premonition—it was the indispensable element for the Ten Thousand Forms Seed to achieve true perfection, and perhaps this was the very essence of the "Ten Thousand Forms Seed."

But even within the original Formless Holy Sect, the Ten Thousand Forms Golden Core was exceedingly rare, obtainable only by those who rose above all other Legacy Disciples and were confirmed as the next Sect Master.

Li Luo had no hope of obtaining the "Ten Thousand Forms Golden Core" now, so he could only seek opportunities later, hoping to acquire it—or at least its forging method.

Boom!

Yet as Li Luo thought this, he failed to notice that his internal Ten Thousand Forms Wheel had suddenly begun spinning uncontrollably, strange roaring echoes reverberating within his body.

Then he felt an inexplicable pull emanating from outside.

Li Luo opened his eyes, following the direction of the pull—and his face twitched, for there, unmistakably, was the position of the "Divine Fruit Crystal Form."

"Calm down, don't commit suicide!"

Li Luo broke into a cold sweat, desperately calming his internal Ten Thousand Forms Wheel—joking, that was the "Divine Fruit Crystal Form" even Heavenly Kings fought over!

It was a "super-ninth-rank form nature" that gave birth to the so-called Divine Fruit; with his current strength, he couldn't even dream of competing for it, let alone having the fortune to possess it if it landed on him.

The power radiating from the "super-ninth-rank form nature" alone would devour him.

Moreover, deep within the mirror tower's void hung a Heavenly King's remains, releasing terrifying residual energy—just that residual energy was enough to make any Marquis Realm cultivator freeze in fear.

Yet though Li Luo was rational, his internal Ten Thousand Forms Wheel showed fierce longing, spinning with roaring force and unleashing a strange power.

That power pierced the void, affecting the "Divine Fruit Crystal Form," which had been drifting toward the "Qing Stone Ancient Seal"—now, its movement slowed abruptly.

"Dare to compete with the Sect Master's Sacred Seal for the 'Divine Fruit Crystal Form'? You've gotten too big for your boots!" Li Luo trembled.

But he understood—this was because he had successfully obtained the Great Formless Divine Forging Art, meaning he had officially become the Formless Holy Sect's Legacy Disciple, recognized as a candidate for Sect Master.

With this status, the "Qing Stone Ancient Seal," symbolizing Sect Master authority, could no longer suppress him in terms of permission.

In secular terms, Li Luo was now the Crown Prince, and the Qing Stone Ancient Seal was the Imperial Seal—but the one holding the Imperial Seal was not the Emperor, but a trusted eunuch.

"Hmph!"

This disturbance was immediately sensed by Void Heavenly King, whose eyes flared with fury—he too felt the Qing Stone Ancient Seal's authority within the Mirror Tower being severed.

That was why Li Luo could now draw the "Divine Fruit Crystal Form."

"How dare insignificant beings like ants act so boldly?"

Void Heavenly King's will surged—a mighty force descended from the heavens, reinforcing the "Qing Stone Ancient Seal." Since authority was equal, he would crush Li Luo by sheer power—he saw Li Luo as utterly insignificant.

With Void Heavenly King's reinforcement, mysterious blue light surged across the "Qing Stone Ancient Seal," reseizing the slightly wavering "Divine Fruit Crystal Form" and pulling it back toward himself.

Seeing this, Li Luo didn't know whether to feel disappointed or relieved.

Competing for something against a Heavenly King was truly overwhelming.

"I'll help you!"

Just as Li Luo exhaled in relief, Jiang Jiang Qinge's voice came from beside him—she extended her slender jade hand, gripping his palm tightly.

"Huh? What?"

Before Li Luo could react, he was stunned to find that with Jiang Jiang Qinge's intervention, his internal Ten Thousand Forms Wheel spun even more eagerly—as if a special permission had been added.

Within the Mirror Tower, they had no power—but they had permission!

Jiang Jiang Qinge's permission, combined with Li Luo's Legacy Disciple authority, suddenly produced astonishing effects—the "Divine Fruit Crystal Form," which had been drifting toward the "Qing Stone Ancient Seal," now trembled violently and turned, slowly drifting toward Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge.

This turn of events stunned even Li Luo—he looked at Jiang Jiang Qinge, his expression complex: "Are you truly the bloodline of that legendary Sect Master?"

Only someone bearing the blood of that legendary Sect Master could override a Heavenly King's reinforcement under such circumstances.

"I don't know," Jiang Jiang Qinge shook her head.

Li Luo wanted to ask Wang Taixi if he knew Jiang Jiang Qinge's identity, but seeing her confused state, he abandoned the thought.

As Li Luo's mind churned with thoughts, Void Heavenly King grew furious beyond measure—he never imagined that even after his own intervention, he had lost to two mere Marquis Realm cultivators.

No, strictly speaking, he hadn't lost to Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge—he had lost to the Formless Holy Sect's rigid rules and permissions. Unless he now destroyed the Mirror Tower, the "Divine Fruit Crystal Form," or Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge, these rules and permissions would remain inviolable within the Formless Holy Sect's territory.

Void Heavenly King wanted to smash the table—but Yun Heavenly King's restraint prevented him from acting freely.

"Ants fighting over fire—seeking their own death."

"If you want the 'Divine Fruit Crystal Form,' then take it."

But Void Heavenly King was ruthless—he suddenly halted the "Qing Stone Ancient Seal" from further pulling the "Divine Fruit Crystal Form."

With the "Qing Stone Ancient Seal" no longer contesting it, the "Divine Fruit Crystal Form" froze in the void—yet Li Luo suddenly felt an overwhelming, irresistible force surge from the "Divine Fruit Crystal Form," seizing him and dragging him swiftly into the depths of the Mirror Tower.

Li Luo's eyes widened in horror—the depths of the Mirror Tower held a Heavenly King's remains, constantly emitting destructive waves; with his Marquis Realm strength, entering would mean annihilation in an instant.

Clearly, this was Void Heavenly King's plan.

As Li Luo was flung outward, Jiang Jiang Qinge, still gripping his hand, was also hurled along—they desperately channeled their Form Force to stabilize themselves, but to no avail.

They could only watch helplessly as they were drawn deeper into the destruction zone.

Yun Heavenly King sensed this and his expression changed—he immediately swept his sleeve, purple qi surging from heaven and earth to restrain them.

But mysterious gray qi followed instantly, swiftly dissolving it into nothingness.

That was Void Heavenly King interfering.

"They like to fight over things? Then let them have it," Void Heavenly King said coldly.

Amidst a sea of horrified gazes, Li Luo and Jiang Jiang Qinge shot through the void, about to plunge into the destruction zone, crushed by the Heavenly King remains' annihilating waves.

A sigh suddenly echoed.

That was Wang Taixi; his figure grew ever fainter, and at this moment he stretched out his hand, forming a hand-seal toward the Heavenly King remains deep within the void.

Then the crowd watched in shock as the Heavenly King remains, which had been radiating waves of destruction, suddenly reined in their power at that very instant.

The zone of destruction vanished in an instant.

"How could that be?!"

Even Void-Heaven King and Cloud-Heaven King's pupils contracted slightly at this sight, for in their perception, Wang Taixi was nothing more than a remnant shadow, and did not possess much power in himself — so how could he possibly control a set of Heavenly King remains?

Wang Taixi gazed at the Heavenly King remains floating deep within the void with a complicated expression, and softly sighed.

"Although I am only a phantom remnant shadow that does not belong to this era, to exert a little control..."

"Over my own remains, I can always manage that."
