CHAPTER 639: CHAPTER 382: DEVOUR! MO TIANJI’S FURY!

When Lu Sheng attained the eighth stage, the divine ability evolved from the Eternal Ash Emperor’s Authority was Devouring Heaven and Earth!

This divine ability serves many purposes. It can be used like a divine killing art, gathering the devoured power to unleash terrifying strength.

At the same time, this divine ability can also be used for cultivation.

By devouring all the energy between heaven and earth, it can enhance one’s own cultivation efficiency!

Lu Sheng’s clone in the Martial Arts Realm, after breaking through the sixth stage, could already channel a portion of the main body’s power. In such a situation, even if it couldn’t unleash the full power of Devouring Heaven and Earth, it could still mobilize some of its traits.

Hence...

Lu Sheng could directly devour others’ cultivation, thereby enhancing his own.

Although some power is lost in the process of devouring and refinement, it’s still much faster than Lu Sheng cultivating on his own.

This is Lu Sheng’s ultimate means to counter the imperial edict of rebellion!

If he only relied on low-level physical training grounds and those limited resources for cultivation, even with ample time, Lu Sheng might not be able to reach the Martial God level, let alone oppose the Ancestor of Wei.

But with the method of Devouring Heaven and Earth, it might indeed be possible!

After devouring Yang Zhen’s cultivation, Lu Sheng clearly felt that his Physical Power had already increased to some extent.

"Though it’s not enough to advance my cultivation to the late stage of the Supreme, it does bring me a step closer to that realm!"

"If I devour two more early-stage sovereigns like Yang Zhen, it would be more than enough to advance my cultivation to the late stage of the Supreme!"

As Lu Sheng spoke, the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but curl slightly.

One must say, using the divine ability of Devouring Heaven and Earth indeed accelerates the enhancement of Lu Sheng’s clone at a rapid pace.

Then, Lu Sheng’s gaze fell on Yang Zhen, whose pupils were filled with terror at this moment.

"You..."

Facing Lu Sheng’s eyes, Yang Zhen couldn’t help but swallow, wanting to say something but finding the words stuck in his throat, unable to come out.

"Go back and tell Mo Tianji... I’m waiting for his next move!"

"I hope... he won’t let me down!"

Lu Sheng said calmly, but did not kill Yang Zhen.

The reason for not killing Yang Zhen was part of Lu Sheng’s considerations.

Lu Sheng knew very well that this so-called imperial edict was not really the will of the emperor of Wei. In essence, Mo Tianji, as the grandson of Duke Wei, had orchestrated this over a long period, merely slapping a rebel label on him.

This was merely a product of the court’s struggle.

All actions were executed by Mo Tianji, including sending Yang Zhen here.

All these were Mo Tianji’s means.

Lu Sheng was also eager to see what this grandson of Duke Wei would do next and... to avoid killing a top-notch Earl, completely shaking the court and prompting those Dukes to take action.

After all, although Lu Sheng currently need not fear anyone below a Martial Saint, if the Dukes of Wei or several Dukes took action... it would be quite troublesome!

Perhaps... it might even attract the attention of that Martial God!

This is no trivial matter!

After all, Lu Sheng is ultimately an outsider in the Martial Arts Realm, targeted by the world’s consciousness. In such circumstances, if the world’s consciousness seizes the chance, perhaps he would indeed be noticed by a Martial God.

Therefore, keeping matters within the scope of Mo Tianji’s abilities not only buys Lu Sheng ample time but also allows him to enhance his strength through the experts on Mo Tianji’s side!

It kills two birds with one stone!

In essence, Lu Sheng is exploiting Mo Tianji’s means to strengthen himself. It may seem like Mo Tianji is targeting Lu Sheng, even labeling him a rebel. However, for Lu Sheng... this is merely a part of his own plan!

Gazing calmly at Yang Zhen before him, Lu Sheng delivered a solid kick to Yang Zhen, sending him crashing to the ground below.

Despite losing his cultivation, as a sovereign, Yang Zhen still retained some Physical Power, preventing Lu Sheng’s kick from killing him.

This was all within Lu Sheng’s control.

"Go back and tell Mo Tianji, his methods are too weak. I await his stronger moves!"

Lu Sheng’s calm voice echoed in Yang Zhen’s ears.

But at this moment, Yang Zhen had already completely passed out. It wasn’t until the military arrived at Xingyun County that they discovered the unconscious Yang Zhen.

The military was taken aback and immediately rushed to aid Yang Zhen, refraining from taking immediate action against Xingyun County.

After all, Yang Zhen was a sovereign, and his unconsciousness frightened the military, making them even more reluctant to act hastily.

It was only after Yang Zhen regained consciousness that orders were given for the army to camp in place, and someone was sent to take him back to the capital to report the events here to Mo Tianji.

...

"Outrageous!!"

In Duke Wei’s Mansion, Mo Tianji’s furious roar suddenly resounded.

In the hall, Mo Tianji stood with both hands on the table, his entire face flushed red at this moment.

Vaguely, one could see Mo Tianji’s face twisted with rage.

"Luo Cheng!! That damned Luo Cheng, how dare he belittle me like this!!"

Mo Tianji spoke angrily, his eyes as if capable of devouring people.

Just moments ago, Yang Zhen returned from the front lines to relay Lu Sheng’s words to Mo Tianji before retreating for treatment.

However, Yang Zhen knew clearly that he had been abolished, and his powers... would all be taken back.

All he could do now was remain a reclusive Earl.

Listening to Yang Zhen relay those words filled Mo Tianji with even more anger.

"Why!! Why can a mere second generation Viscount severely injure Yang Zhen!!"

Mo Tianji frenziedly slammed the table; even though it was built of special materials, under Mo Tianji’s mad pounding, the table cracked with hideous seams.

"Luo Cheng..."

Mo Tianji growled, sounding like the roar of a tiger.

"I refuse to believe that a mere second-generation Viscount can upheave everything in my hands!"

As if coming to a decision, Mo Tianji turned to the servant beside him.

"Invite my third uncle over!"

As he spoke, Mo Tianji’s eyes betrayed a strong and intense killing intent.
