Chapter 428

【The Heavenly Dao is only about contention; if you don't advance, you retreat. Passing the sixth trial will make you my indoor disciple, and you can obtain a portion of my inheritance. I have five indoor disciples.

Inside the Seven-Star Secret Realm, there will be a phantom of me when I was near the age of thirty patrolling. Defeat my phantom, and you can obtain a streak of Seven Kill True Meaning.

Within thirty days, those who obtain the Seven Kill True Meaning can enter the Seven Kill Palace and become my indoor disciples.】

Looking at the starlight appearing before him, Xu Jin's expression was surprised.

Seven Kill True Meaning?

Divine Dao True Meaning?

Are they referring to the same thing?

The Grand Master said earlier that the Divine Dao True Meaning was a reward bestowed by the Extreme Dao Emperor through the Seven Kill Secret Realm.

If they were two different rewards, then this reward would be super generous.

But if the two rewards were the same, then it meant the Extreme Dao Emperor could influence or control the Seven Kill Secret Realm to a certain extent?

Or perhaps, the Seven Kill Secret Realm was created by the Extreme Dao Emperor?

In an instant, as a thousand thoughts flashed through Xu Jin's mind, the invisible barrier covering the Seven Kill Palace suddenly disappeared.

The next instant, the ten people in the Seven Kill Palace all soared into the sky and charged in all directions.

Xu Jin, however, directly triggered the seven law stars on the Arena Platform and simultaneously drove his Bright Era Star Emblem with all his might.

In an instant, Xu Jin sensed five massive and grand auras distributed in all directions; the key was that these five massive auras were also constantly moving.

Which one should he go find?

As his mind turned, Xu Jin made a decision.

With a flap of his thunder wings, he instantly turned into a streak of thunder light and fled rapidly in a certain direction.

The five auras Xu Jin sensed should be the five auras of Divine Dao True Meaning.

As for whether the Seven Kill True Meaning and the Divine Dao True Meaning were the same thing, he would understand after obtaining one.

Among the five Divine Dao True Meanings, the auras of four of them were extremely obvious; in Xu Jin's sensing, they were like the sun and moon.

Only one of them was incomparably obscure.

Following the method told by Academy Head Dong Zhao, Xu Jin re-activated his All-Lei Lei Yuanxing Emblems and immediately felt something.

When driving the Earth Lei Lei Yuanxing Emblem, the direction of one Divine Dao True Meaning appeared and disappeared.

When driving the Fire Lei Lei Yuanxing Emblem, he sensed the Divine Dao True Meaning in another direction.

When driving the Wood Lei Lei Yuanxing Emblem, he also felt something.

When driving the Lei Lei Yuanxing Emblem, he also sensed a Divine Dao True Meaning in a certain direction.

While flying rapidly, Xu Jin drove all the source-type star emblems once, but he could only sense four Divine Dao True Meanings.

Only when driving the seven law stars on the Arena Platform could he sense all five Divine Dao True Meanings.

Xu Jin instantly made a judgment: that direction with the vague sensing was nine times out of ten something that required a spatial source-type star emblem to sense.

Currently, there were no disciples from the Sumeru Palace, so Xu Jin was not in a hurry about that direction.

Whether it was collected last or collected by someone else, it didn't matter.

Currently, Xu Jin didn't know the Void Lei Lei Yuanxing Emblem, so snatching it would be useless.

Therefore, the first target Xu Jin was charging toward at this moment was the Divine Dao True Meaning sensed by the Lei Lei Yuanxing Emblem.

Among Xu Jin's current main combat star arts, the ones that were systematic were the thunder type and earth type, so Xu Jin decided to prioritize snatching the Divine Dao True Meaning related to the thunder type.

As for the Grand Master's side, there were Academy Head Dong Zhao and Song Shoujie, the Marquis of Luoshui.

If he couldn't snatch it, there would be plenty of opportunities later.

Xu Jin estimated that this sixth trial would very likely be extremely tragic.

It is worth mentioning that when everyone rushed out of the Seven Kill Palace, there was no one left outside the Seven Kill Palace.

The elites from various sides who had passed the fourth trial but not the fifth trial had already left.

Presumably, Ning Yuchan had also left safely; after all, she had substitute-death opportunities.

After flying for only a few breaths, Xu Jin discovered that behind him, a streak of thunder light was chasing him directly, and its speed was also extremely fast.

It was just a fraction slower than Xu Jin's speed.

Xu Jin's heart stirred; this person was nine times out of ten Hou Ziang of the Wood Spirit Palace.

But what about the other one from the Wood Spirit Palace?

After Xu Jin flew for more than ten breaths, he discovered that no other starlight was chasing from behind, only the thunder light of the seventh-tier Hou Ziang of the Wood Spirit Palace.

He understood in his heart.

In the previous great battle, the other seventh-tier expert of the Wood Spirit Palace, Du Wei, was skilled in wood-type star arts.

The Wood Spirit Palace mainly cultivated two types of star arts, thunder type and wood type, especially wood-type star arts, which were perfected to the extreme, and in the current era, they even monopolized the Star Healing Emblem.

Xu Jin had previously sensed a Divine Dao True Meaning related to the wood source star emblem.

Du Wei of the Wood Spirit Palace was nine times out of ten chasing toward that Divine Dao True Meaning.

It could only be said that he was confident enough.

The next instant, Xu Jin accelerated instantly, switching directly to Five-fold Triple Liushuo.

The speed of thunder wings plus thunder escape was very fast, but it was about equivalent to the speed of Three-fold Triple Liushuo, faster than ordinary seventh-tier powerhouses, and about the same as seventh-tier elites who were skilled in speed like Hou Ziang, leading by a fraction.

But Five-fold Triple Liushuo was sixty or seventy percent faster in speed.

It was just that the consumption of Five-fold Triple Liushuo was extremely huge.

Even after Xu Jin's cultivation base broke through to the fifth tier, third layer, with the total amount of thirty-six star cores, all the star power in his Middle Star Palace could only support Xu Jin for ten seconds.

If it weren't for the support of the starlight from the Arena Platform, Xu Jin wouldn't dare to use Five-fold Triple Liushuo to travel.

The moment Five-fold Triple Liushuo was activated, it left Hou Ziang of the Wood Spirit Palace, who was chasing rapidly from behind, far behind.

Hou Ziang was anxious!

He was truly anxious!

Regretful and angry!

At the moment the Divine Dao True Meaning appeared earlier, Hou Ziang had a brief exchange with his junior brother Du Wei.

Because the Divine Dao True Meaning indeed required source-type star emblems to be sensed.

Then theoretically, the Thunder-type Divine Dao True Meaning could only be sensed by him, Hou Ziang.

In other words, this advantage was unique to Hou Ziang of the Wood Spirit Palace.

Both Hou Ziang and Du Wei subconsciously ignored Qi Qi Tian Sheng.

Although Qi Qi Tian Sheng had displayed thunder-type star arts, he was only a fifth-tier, third-layer expert.

It could be said that among the ten named disciples, except for Dong Zhao and Ju Xuan, everyone else treated Xu Jin as air, as a foil!

Hou Ziang subconsciously ignored Xu Jin.

Because of the unique advantage of the Lei Lei Yuanxing Emblem sensing, Hou Ziang and Du Wei had agreed that Hou Ziang would first go to collect a Divine Dao True Meaning related to the thunder type.

This guaranteed income would be enough to give an account to their master.

Du Wei would go to track the Divine Dao True Meaning related to the wood type; if he could snatch it, he would, and if he couldn't, he would observe first, lock onto the target, and then wait for Hou Ziang to come and rendezvous with him to join forces to compete for the Divine Dao True Meaning related to the wood type.

The plan of the two was perfect!

But just as they started, Hou Ziang discovered this blockhead, Qi Qi Tian Sheng.

Although he was surprised enough that Qi Qi Tian Sheng could enter the Seven Kill Palace under the siege of two seventh-tier experts from the Sumeru Palace earlier.

But not having witnessed it with his own eyes, Hou Ziang instinctively felt that it must have been a trick, or that there had been disciples from Da Chen sacrificing their lives to cooperate.

After all, it was just charging into the Seven Kill Palace, not a head-on confrontation.

How strong could Qi Qi Tian Sheng's strength be?

There was importance, but it was just importance.

But now, when Hou Ziang and Xu Jin truly encountered each other, he was shocked.

Damn it, is this still the fifth tier, third layer?

Ordinary eighth-tier experts might not necessarily be faster than him.

But this fifth-tier, third-layer expert before him, whose speed was a fraction faster than his at the beginning, was now leading him by a large margin.

Hou Ziang was so anxious.

He drove the Lei Lei Yuanxing Emblem and Lei Lei Xiangxing Emblem in his body to the extreme, but still couldn't change the situation of being led by a large margin.

He was just short of self-destructing his Star Tower to accelerate.

It was certain that under the current circumstances, Qi Qi Tian Sheng would definitely find the Divine Dao True Meaning related to the thunder type one step ahead of him. However, although anxious, Hou Ziang was still able to keep his cool.

Mainly because arriving first didn't mean one could obtain the Divine Dao True Meaning related to the thunder type.

During the fourth trial earlier, what had to be slain was the phantom of the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun in his youth, which should have been the phantom evolved from the strength of the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun in his early twenties.

Cultivation base: late sixth tier.

Even for him, slaying it took a little bit of effort.

It wasn't too easy.

Now, what had to be slain was the phantom evolved from the strength of the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun at the age of thirty.

Hou Ziang speculated that the phantom of this sixth trial was at least an early-stage seventh-tier phantom, and possibly a mid-stage seventh-tier one.

Such a phantom of the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun, even for a genius like him, Hou Ziang, would require him to use all his strength and exhaust all his means to have a possibility of slaying it, and might even require him to fight to the death.

Then, with the fifth-tier, third-layer Qi Qi Tian Sheng rushing over, even if he got there fast, it would be useless.

In the end, it would still be cheaper for him.

This was Hou Ziang's judgment, or rather, a bit of luck.

It was also his most certain opportunity to snatch this Divine Dao True Meaning related to the thunder type.

Moreover, in his sensing, that Divine Dao True Meaning related to the thunder type was not too far away.

At that time, this Qi Qi Tian Sheng would at most lead by a few breaths of time.

Within a few breaths, could he take down the seventh-tier phantom of the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun?

Impossible!

Then the fifth-tier, third-layer Qi Qi Tian Sheng couldn't either!

As for the heavy treasures bestowed by the Da Chen Grand Master Cheng Yuexiao?

Also impossible!

Consumable items for one-time bursts above the seventh tier were extremely rare, and even if there were any, they could only burst out the lethality of an early-stage seventh-tier expert.

As for the ninth-tier inheritance treasures, there were only a few of them; it was impossible.

Based on these judgments, although Hou Ziang was chasing Xu Jin rapidly from behind, he wasn't worried at all.

Deep down, he still believed that the Divine Dao True Meaning related to the thunder type was his.

Time flowed near.

Xu Jin flew at high speed using Five-fold Triple Liushuo for thirteen breaths, during which he replenished his star power once using the Arena Platform, and instantly saw the phantom of the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun at the age of thirty lying on a giant rock.

Compared to the phantom in his youth, the phantom of the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun at the age of thirty had a bit more maturity.

Just glancing at Xu Jin, the moment he discovered Xu Jin, a streak of sword light instantly rose through the sky and slashed toward Xu Jin.

Xu Jin turned, intending to dodge this terrifying sword light.

The sword light suddenly exploded into hundreds of winding purple thunder lights like snakes, bombarding Xu Jin.

With the strangeness of Xu Jin's Willow Catkin movement technique, he only avoided a little over a third of the thunder lights, and then was bombarded by hundreds of purple thunder lights.

The Fish Screen Jin Zhong on his body surface instantly fluctuated violently.

Xu Jin retracted his thunder wings instantly, only then taking this blow head-on.

At the same instant, Xu Jin's attack also bombarded over.

The moment the Earth Divine Thunder and Fire Divine Thunder bombarded continuously, five-colored thunder light began to gather in Xu Jin's palms.

The next instant, Xu Jin advanced again, Earth Origin Magnetism was cast, slightly limiting the speed of the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom while the Five Elements Divine Thunder bombarded over instantly.

With the cooperation of Earth Origin Magnetism, it hit instantly.

Five-colored thunder light poured down, directly brushing away a layer of thunder light on the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom's body surface, blasting the protective star light until it was tattered, but it didn't break it.

Nor was there any Seven-Star Spirit Armor protection discovered.

Just from this one blow, Xu Jin made a judgment.

Without the Five Elements Divine Thunder, in a head-on confrontation, wanting to slay this phantom of the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun head-on would be very difficult.

With the Five Elements Divine Thunder, in a head-on confrontation, Xu Jin could slay the phantom of the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun head-on.

But it would take time.

It might take dozens of breaths, or it might take hundreds of breaths.

But now, for the sake of the Divine Dao True Meaning related to the thunder type, he had to finish the battle quickly.

The next instant, the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom had already soared into the sky, and terrifying thunder light poured down toward Xu Jin one streak after another.

Supporting the Heavenly Gang Thunder Chain Shield and cooperating with the Fish Screen Jin Zhong, he took several blows head-on, and after resolving the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom's offensive, the Five Elements Divine Thunder condensed in Xu Jin's palms again.

At the same time, Earth Origin Magnetism.

However, the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom sensed the aura of the Five Elements Divine Thunder in Xu Jin's hands, and while falling, it raised its figure extremely fast to stay away from Xu Jin; clearly, it had sensed the threat.

The next instant, as Xu Jin's mind drove it, Falling Star!

In an instant, a streak of starlight appeared from the sky, and the moment it appeared above the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom's head, it instantly turned into the size of a small hill and bombarded the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom.

Earth Origin Magnetism was also driven to the extreme by Xu Jin.

Swish!

The Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom was blasted down from the sky by the Falling Star, falling like a meteor under the acceleration of Earth Origin Magnetism.

Boom!

A mass of five-colored thunder suddenly bombarded and hit the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom like lightning.

Amidst the booming thunder light, the protective star light on the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom's body surface had already been shattered by half by the Falling Star; at this time, being hit by this five-colored thunder, it dissipated in an instant, and even the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom disintegrated into wisps of starlight in the thunder light.

The fatal blow was completed!

The four streaks of Nine Heavens Thunder Rhyme injected into it were not wasted!

Almost the moment the Seven Kill Tianyang Zhenjun phantom was finished off, a mass of flowing, colorful light, looking like a gemstone on the outside but seemingly boiling with countless thunder lights on the inside, appeared before Xu Jin.

The moment it appeared, Xu Jin's Lei Lei Yuanxing Emblem and Lei Lei Xiangxing Emblem shone brightly at the same time.

Thunder-type Divine Dao True Meaning.

The next instant, thunder light mixed with spirit power wrapped around this mass of thunder-type Divine Dao True Meaning.

The moment it wrapped around it, Xu Jin sensed that the power within this mass of thunder-type Divine Dao True Meaning climbed onto his wrist, and then, this mass of thunder-type Divine Dao True Meaning was thoroughly wrapped by Xu Jin and then successfully put into his Sumeru space.

Just after finishing all this, Hou Ziang of the Wood Spirit Palace in the distance rushed within ten thousand meters and happened to see this scene.

At the same instant, the thunder-type Divine Dao True Meaning in Hou Ziang's Lei Lei Yuanxing Emblem sensing disappeared!

"Leave it for me!" From afar, Hou Ziang roared, driving his thunder light to the extreme, killing toward Xu Jin like a madman.

This thing was not only a supreme treasure needed by his teacher, but also a supreme treasure needed by him!

In the blink of an eye, the early-stage seventh-tier Hou Ziang rushed within a thousand meters of Xu Jin, and at this very instant, Xu Jin rose by stepping on stars.

Just as Hou Ziang was about to launch an attack on Xu Jin while rushing, he accelerated instantly.

Five-fold Triple Liushuo.

The Huang Long Sword appeared!

Mountain Moving star art was cast!

Hou Ziang, who was rushing toward Xu Jin, also had speed that reached the extreme.

When he discovered something was wrong, while decelerating, the thunder light bombarded Xu Jin head-on.

But the moment the thunder light was blasted out, the sonic boom had already flashed past his ears.

At this instant, Hou Ziang felt as if he had been hit by a great mountain.

The Seven-Star Spirit Armor appeared on his body surface.

Hou Ziang was blasted backward, spitting out blood, while his Seven-Star Spirit Armor disintegrated piece by piece!

Under the protection of his own protective star light and the Seven-Star Spirit Armor, Hou Ziang actually didn't die!

Xu Jin himself was also hit until he was dizzy, his Fish Screen Jin Zhong vibrating violently, almost shattering!

Fortunately, it was the Huang Long Sword; if it had been the Fire Ox Sword, the sword would probably have shattered.

But just for an instant, Xu Jin looked at Hou Ziang, who was spitting out blood, and Five-fold Triple Liushuo was activated again.

Swish!

In another sonic boom, Hou Ziang instantly split into pieces and disintegrated into starlight.

First kill.

Xu Jin landed suddenly, the brilliance of the Huang Long Sword flickering, and then waited quietly.

He didn't know if Hou Ziang would come again?
