Chapter 672: Southeast Overlord

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The black energy was wrapping around the white stars, becoming thicker and thicker.

However, from start to finish, they were repelled by the stars.

One could feel that the stars were being protected by a strong power. All kinds of evils couldn’t touch them and negative energy couldn’t be added.

Kong Rui heaved a sigh of relief. Since the Heaven phenomenon was showing this, then there wouldn’t be too much to worry about.

Whether or not she could survive this tribulation would still depend on the Monster King.

Since Kong Yao wasn’t affected by the evil energy, it meant that the kid’s King Path Energy protected her.

If Zong Shou was safe, then his daughter would be fine. However, if something happened to the Monster King, then Yao’er would probably die!

Placing down the divination coin, Kong Rui frowned. Logically speaking, there would be a 90% chance for Yao’er breaking her fate. However, why did he feel uneasy?

“Imperial Astronomer Kong! What is the outcome?”

The voice came from outside the altar. It was a 70-year-old man who sat there and asked anxiously.

It was Zong Ling. He was the original priest of Gantian Mountain and he used to hold Kong Rui’s current role.

However, Zong Shou established the country and set up the cabinet and the six ministry system. The Grand Priest Temple was in charge of monitoring this Imperial Astronomer.

However, in terms of observing the phenomenons and divination of fate, he was far from him.

This was why after Kong Rui was appointed, Zong Ling gave him full control, handing all the divination matters over to him.

Not only him, old officials like Hu Qianqiu were all anxiously waiting.

Renbo was at the side frowning. A Saint once said that he respected the art and saying of ghosts and gods but he stayed far away from them!

He didn’t care much about the path of divination. However, today was just too important for Gantian Mountain.

However, if they waited for the news on the side of Huizhou it would take half a day.

He looked deeply at Kong Rui. This person had only came to Gantian Mountain for half a year.

However, when he prophesized destinies and deduced blessings or curses for people, he was always accurate.

In a short time, everyone in Gantian Mountain learned of him.

Moreover, his daughter was not only Zong Shou’s Concubine, she was even trusted to command millions of troops.

This was why even senior statesmen like Hu Qianqiu had to respect him.

This person was truly amazing at divination.

He might even be able to predict the situation before the news from the other side came back.

Kong Rui shook his head when he heard this, looking in front of him without making a sound. 100 feet out there was a Three-legged Tripod.

Below was purple flames, it was the Purple Heart Coal known for being pure. After it was burned, it wouldn’t leave any dust and the flame was also really strong, often used to worship the Heavens.

At this moment, there was only a three-palm sized, flawless turtle shell.

These astrology predictions often correlated with the changes in life. His attainments in this aspect were no weaker than Zhongxuan.

Out of these techniques, the most accurate was this Turtle Divination Technique!

If the shell didn’t crack, then even he didn’t dare to come to a conclusion.

He waited quietly for a full hour. There was still no movement within the tripod.

The people outside of the altar slowly showed signs of impatience.

Kong Rui also frowned. The shell he used was a Grade-5 Spirit Hiding Turtle.

Although it was far from the Xuanwu bloodline, its lifespan could be counted in the tens of thousands, nurturing a spirit within, a top divination ingredient...

However, why was it so slow today?

Thinking about it, he suddenly stood up and walked beside the copper tripod.

He suddenly slit his wrist and fresh blood dropped within.

Moments later, the turtle cracked and tens of lines spread out.

Kong Rui looked carefully, his tight heart finally relaxed.

Although cracks were spreading, they all headed toward the center. When the purple flame was extinguished, the center region was still perfectly fine.

The King was in the middle, if that place was fine, it meant that Zong Shou could definitely survive this killing tribulation.

Next, he looked carefully at their directions, only to see the cracks were like sabers, Spears, swords and halberds pointing toward the center.

A moment later his eyelids jumped.

He saw some changes on the turtle shell. After it turned cold, the right side of the shell was black whilst the left started to turn red.

Zong Shou’s King Energy carried the Fire nature, it was represented by red.

Was it a sign that the Monster King would become the Southeast Overlord of this world?

The moment such a thought rose up and before he could analyze anything else, lightning suddenly struck down, smashing the tripod into pieces.

Kong Rui retreated several steps before he regained his footing. Then he looked upward with an ashen white face.

This was the heavens showing killing intent, not wanting him to peak at its secrets! Heaven secrets couldn’t be spread!

He hesitated, should he tell them what he saw?

In the next instant, he saw Xuanyuan Yiren’s eyes were filled with anticipation.

He could only shake his head, “Ruler is fine! In just 8-10 hours there would be news of victory...”

The moment he said that their faces were at ease.

Kong Rui was in deep thought, thinking back to the weird scenes he saw before the tripod was destroyed.

Zong Shou’s fate resonated with the stars and was connected to the fate of the Cloud World even 10,000 years on, which was why there were such changes.

However, at this moment, he didn’t know which star he was linked to.

He could only see numerous soldiers, bones, blood and fire coexisting, burning everything...

※※※※

Pretty much at the same time, a Taoist Temple 100,000 miles away also had a tripod that exploded.

A 9999-foot stargazing tower stood tall. Looking down from there, one could see an enormous Yin and Yang trigram.

On the platform, Great Shang Imperial Tutor seemed like he suddenly aged tens of years.

His mustache was white and his face was filled with exhaustion.

His eyelids twitched as he raised his white eyebrows looking at the broken tripod and the scorch marks from the lightning. His eyes were filled with disbelief. action

How could they win on the east side? Although they were defending a structure, they had no help, surrounded by enemies and were outnumbered!

Jia Mingluo was also stronger than his own grade, there should be no one his match in the Cloud World.

Even if he didn’t win, he shouldn’t lose!

Adding in the plans of the Taoists, that person should definitely die!

Yesterday, His Majesty had summoned the Great Shang officials to try to predict the war.

The best outcome was them lasting till noon, after which they would be crushed and wiped out...

What chances of winning did they have?

If one couldn’t stop them outside the Cloud World, then just let them enter it.

Not only could they restrict the rising country in Donglin, they could cause the numerous vassal states in the east of the Central Continent to not dare to make any moves.

It could allow Great Shang to send troops to calm down their internal turmoil.

...This was the plan that the officials had decided on.

Thinking about it now, it was really amusing and too arrogant...

His eyes were filled with disbelief. He barely stood up, stumbling over toward the tripod.

Just now he tried to sneak a look at the secrets of heaven, using 90% of his strength.

When the Heavens punished him, the recoil was also extremely huge. His physical body was nearly blown to shreds.

At this moment, he was barely walking to the front of the tripod.

Although the tripod was destroyed, there were a few broken shells remaining.

The reason why it wasn’t totally destroyed was so that some of it could be told to others.

Zhongxuan picked them up and pieced them together. A long while later he exhaled.

“He really is perfectly fine, he really is the Southeast Overlord...”

It seems like the Monster King Zong Shou was definitely going to win that battle!

If he didn’t, he wouldn’t be in any danger but his Elites would have died there so how could he be the Southeast Overlord?

The red intent spread about until it reached the southeast of the Cloud World...

No matter how he guessed, he couldn’t think how Zong Shou could win.

Suddenly a star light stabbed into his eyes.

He raised his head up and he looked at the Alkaid at the handle of the Beidou.

“Army Breaking appears, suppressing a huge army. Light shining on the southeast, what a familiar aura. Who is that? It is Kong Yao. There is only her in his memory...”

However, was this woman’s disastrous fate resolved?

Although she was facing a killing tribulation, she was protected by a person’s extremely strong luck.

She recalled that this woman had been infected by some of the Vengeful Energy of the Army Breaking star. A woman’s body wouldn’t be able to take it which was why her fate would definitely weaken and she would die early.

Why was Alkaid shining so brightly now? Covering the other stars with its light?

One couldn’t understand such changes.

Speaking of which, this woman led millions to fight the Night Demons. Her ability to use troops caused one’s eyes to light up.

Even Great Shang’s few experienced commanders were impressed.

Speaking of which, to say that she was the descendant of Alkaid did make sense.

Thinking about it, Zhongxuan’s heart moved. He felt pent up frustration in his chest, blood spat out from within.

So that was the case, so that was the case! This woman was not just an Army Commanding talent who could only be shown by leading huge armies!

Her fate was obscure, needing a million troops and being appointed as a country’s Commander to truly be Army Breaking.

His divination skills were unparalleled, his fate divinations were all correct. Who knew he would be wrong about her?

Army God descending, top famous Commander, this Kong Yao should have been their Great Shang’s Pillar!
