Startled, Falling Dust filled his body with stellar energy, causing his clothes to flutter. His body rumbled like thunder, a sign that he had circulated his stellar energy to the limit.
"Wait!"
Yu Longxin called out before Falling Dust could do anything.
Immediately after, the dazzling light emitted by the white jade abruptly disappeared and returned to its normal state.
The only difference was that a few lines of ancient words had suddenly appeared on the pure, flawless white jade.
"This is …"
"Ancient words."
Hearing that, Falling Dust's heart skipped a beat. He squinted his eyes.
A while later, his expression became extremely strange. There was doubt, surprise, and some worry.
The words on the white jade were very simple. There were only a few sentences, but it was the amount of information they contained that left the two of them at a loss for what to do.
This was because the white jade from the Heaven Dao Pavilion was an invitation!
It was an invitation for Wang Yan to join the Skyroad sect and become a vice-leader of the Skyroad sect!
The words on the white jade had been personally written by the sect leader of the Skyroad sect. The words were ruthless and unquestionable.
"What should we do? Do we really have to …"
Bang!
With a crisp sound, the white jade shattered. With a wave of Yu Longxin's hand, it turned into a pile of dust and vanished.
Falling Dust's expression changed. He looked at her in confusion.
No matter what, it was an invitation from the Skyroad sect. Even if he did not agree, there was no need to destroy the token, right?
What if …
"You want Yan 'er to join a measly Skyroad sect? Are you even worthy?"
The sudden voice pulled Falling Dust back to reality. He met Yu Longxin's burning gaze and was momentarily at a loss for words.
The Skyroad sect was indeed very powerful. At least on the Starsource Continent, they were the absolute rulers of the True Gods.
Although Wang Yan had killed Tian Jizi with an incomplete King armament, how many more times could he use an attack like that?
Just one time had cost the sect the lives of hundreds of millions of disciples. It was a great blow to the sect, causing it to fall from being the greatest sect on the Eastern Continent.
If the sect leader of the Skyroad sect came personally, who could stop him?
All of a sudden, Yu Longxin's expression changed, and she vanished from sight.
Falling Dust was slightly startled, and then he followed closely behind.
…
Dragon & Phoenix Teahouse, fourth floor.
Seeing that Wang Yan was slowly waking up, everyone was very happy, and the haze in their hearts for the past few days was swept away.
"Elysium … How is it now?"
Wang Yan would never be able to forget the hundreds of millions of Heaven Gate disciples who chose to self-destruct in order to save his life.
The scene of blood staining the sky was deeply engraved in the deepest part of his soul, and he would never forget it.
Therefore, after he woke up, he immediately asked about the situation of the Heavenly Gate.
Everyone fell silent when they heard this, and no one spoke.
On that day, hundreds of millions of Heaven Gate disciples were willing to detonate themselves just to protect Wang Yan.
That scene shocked everyone.
Although these disciples didn't leave behind any names, their silhouettes and faces were clearly engraved in everyone's minds.
"His vitality is greatly damaged, and he will not be able to recover from this setback."
Yu Longxin said faintly, looking at Wang Yan with a gentle gaze. Her heart was filled with worry.
After killing Tian Jizi, the Sky-Swallowing Pot suddenly changed, and Wang Yan fainted.
No one knew whether such a change would be beneficial or detrimental to Wang Yan.
"Yan 'er, you …"
"His meridians are undamaged, and his elixir field has been repaired."
In an instant, everyone was stunned.
Before the battle, Wang Yan's damaged meridians had been completely restored with the help of the elixir developed by Yun Zhonghe.
Only his elixir field had yet to recover, and there were still cracks that prevented astral powers from being stored.
But after waking up from the battle, his damaged elixir field had been restored. Why?
Could it be because of what happened to the Sky-Swallowing Pot?
"Mother, how is Xian 'er?"
Facing Wang Yan's question, Yu Longxin shook her head. "She has been in a coma, and there is no sign of her waking up."
The light in Wang Yan's eyes rapidly dimmed when he heard that.
The price he had paid in the battle against Tian Jizi was far too heavy, such that he was still unable to emerge from the shadow of the battle.
Hundreds of millions of disciples had been annihilated in a single moment, and Wang Xian 'er had fallen asleep once again.
The dead disciples could not be revived, so no one knew when Wang Xian 'er would awaken.
If Wang Xian 'er was like before, unable to awaken after a long time, and needed a heaven-ranked medicinal pill or above, what should he do?
Earth Tier alchemists were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns across the entire Starsource Continent.
As for Heaven Tier alchemists, they were just like the legendary Star Shatterer experts. They only existed in legends.
As soon as he thought of that, Wang Yan could not help but close his eyes slowly. He did his best to empty his mind.
Originally, he thought there would be no more problems after killing Tian Jizi, but now that the battle had ended, everything came one after another.
Most importantly, once the Skyroad sect discovered that Tian Jizi was dead, they would definitely send even more experts down.
At that time, who would be able to stop them?
Wang Yan suddenly thought of the Sky-Swallowing Pot when he thought of that.
Although it was a damaged incomplete King's artifact, its power was shocking. If it was pushed to the limit, it could pierce through the barriers of the Starsource Continent.
However, the price for using it was extremely heavy. Wang Yan did not want to use it a second time.
Unless he paid the price of hundreds of millions of lives, or unless his strength reached a level where he could use the Sky-Swallowing Pot, there was no need for him to even think about it.
Although the chances of the latter were slim, there was still a sliver of hope.
Suddenly, Wang Yan blinked and opened his eyes. The Sky-Swallowing Pot had disappeared!
Wang Yan tried hard to recall the strange changes that happened to the Heaven Swallowing Pot after he killed Tian Jizi. He could not help but frown, and a blurry "Chuan" character appeared in the center of his forehead.
"Yan 'er, what's wrong?
Are you feeling unwell? "
Yu Longxin, who had been staring at Wang Yan the entire time, immediately noticed the change in his expression.
Wang Yan shook his head. "Mother, the Sky-Swallowing Pot is gone!"
Yu Longxin's expression changed. The Sky-Swallowing Pot was the only incomplete King's artifact she had with her. Although it was cruel, it was still a King's artifact.
She had relied on it to kill Tian Jizi, but now it was gone. How was that possible?!
"Yan 'er, sense it carefully. Is it hiding in your Sea of Soul or Dantian?"
Yu Longxin's words were not groundless. Any artifact would gain sentience once it reached a certain level.
Even divine artifacts had their own sentience, let alone the Sky-Swallowing Pot that was half a King's artifact.
Moreover, the Sky-Swallowing Pot's change in the end was definitely not under Wang Yan's control. Everything had happened on its own.
