Library of Heaven’s Path - Chapter 2094

“My name is Du Qingyuan. I have no intention of offending you,” Du Qingyuan said as she stepped forward.

“This isn’t a place for you to barge in. Since you’re here, why don’t you stay here and accompany me?”

Not bothering to listen to Du Qingyuan’s nonsense, the skeleton pointed its finger at them.

Huala!

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Xuan and Du Qingyuan felt as if the world was collapsing around them, and their bodies were about to be reduced to dust.

“This is the might of the gods …”

Zhang Xuan narrowed his eyes in astonishment. He didn’t have the time to explain himself either. With a flick of his Tongshang Sword, he executed his strongest swordsmanship.

Huala!

The boundless sword intent formed a net full of enchantments in the air.

As soon as the skeleton’s finger came into contact with the net, it was immediately bound by the net, preventing it from advancing any further.

“Your swordsmanship is not bad. Are you from the Sky of Heavenly Sword?”

The skeleton halted its attack before shaking its head. “No, that’s not right. How could someone from the Sky of Heavenly Sword appear in a place like this? Furthermore, their swordsmanship is sharp and ferocious. Their swordsmanship is filled with determination, and they live to protect others. It’s completely different from your swordsmanship, which is filled with emotions. To be able to comprehend such powerful swordsmanship in a place so lacking in spiritual energy, you are no different from the previous person who entered this place. Your talent isn’t bad.

“However, that’s all there is to it. This is my master’s tomb, not a place where outsiders are allowed to enter. Since your swordsmanship isn’t weak, you should leave right now. ”

The skeleton waved its hand dismissively.

“Elder, the reason we’re here is to search for the Aura of Divinity that can allow us to achieve a breakthrough to the gods.

Seeing that the skeleton had stopped attacking and chasing him away, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed.

If the Aura of Divinity could be found in the City of Collapsed Space, it was bound to have something to do with this place.

“Do you wish to die?” the skeleton asked.

“No, I don’t.”

Zhang Xuan replied with a bitter smile.

“Scram!”

The skeleton harrumphed.

“Elder …”

Before Zhang Xuan could finish his words, the skeleton waved its hand.

A powerful surge of energy gushed forth, and it felt as if the entire world was collapsing.

Zhang Xuan’s face warped in horror. He flicked his finger and took out the Semi-Divinity artifacts that he had obtained from the Ethereal Hall.

Ding ding ding ding ding ding!

With a reddened face, Zhang Xuan spurted a mouthful of blood as he was sent flying, crashing heavily into the ground. Countless weapons fell to the ground one after another, as if it was raining.

Driving his Heaven’s Path zhenqi, Zhang Xuan managed to recover a little. Suppressing the excruciating pain in his body, he stood up.

“I really don’t want to offend you, but the reason why I’m here is to obtain the Aura of Divinity …”

“I think you want to die!”

The skeleton coldly snorted.

Following which, Zhang Xuan felt a powerful pressure descending from the heavens, threatening to crush him into dust at any moment. Just as he was about to succumb to the pressure, the pendant in front of his chest suddenly warmed up, alleviating the pressure on him.

Whoosh!

As if sensing the power of the pendant, the oppressive aura disappeared without a trace in an instant. Zhang Xuan was just about to speak when he felt his body tighten. Then, he saw the pendant on his chest flying straight toward the other party.

“Give it back to me …”

Gritting his teeth, Zhang Xuan wanted to rush over.

However, it felt as if something was trapping him, preventing him from escaping no matter how hard he tried.

Grabbing the pendant, the skeleton glanced at it for a moment before flicking it back to Zhang Xuan’s chest.

Hu!

Zhang Xuan panted heavily as he regained his composure.

“You want the Aura of Divinity that can allow one to reach the level of the gods?”

Skeleton no longer had the same attitude as before. Instead, he looked over indifferently.

“Yes, I hope that you can grant my request!”

Seeing that the skeleton didn’t snatch his pendant away, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief and clasped his fist.

“I don’t have the Aura of Divinity, but I can use this as a substitute!”

The skeleton paused for a moment before grabbing the air of degeneration with its hand. In the blink of an eye, the air of degeneration gathered together, forming a black current.

Zhang Xuan was taken aback.

He could clearly sense that the black aura before him was much purer than the aura of degeneration. It bore some resemblance to the Aura of Divinity that he had seen before, and it emanated an irresistible pressure.

However, it wasn’t golden in color. Instead, it harnessed the same corrosive power of decay. Putting aside advancing to the god realm, even if he had Little Chick’s bath water, he wouldn’t be able to withstand the corrosive power of decay.

“The Aura of Divinity that I want is golden in color …”

Zhang Xuan couldn’t help but ask.

He definitely couldn’t use this. If he really used it, let alone breaking through, he might not even be able to survive.

“This thing was originally golden, but … it’s different here!”

The skeleton said.

“Different?”

“It’s true that the Aura of Divinity is golden in color, but the spiritual energy in this place is murky. Over time, it’s inevitable that it would be contaminated …” the skeleton shook its head.

To the cultivators of the Master Teacher Continent, the spiritual energy in the Azure was pure and filled with energy. However, to the gods, it was filthy and impure. Even the purest aura of divinity would be tainted if left alone for too long, turning into the aura of degeneration.

Zhang Xuan’s face turned livid.

He had thought that he would be able to find the purest Aura of Divinity, but if it was all like that, it would be useless even if he found it!

He couldn’t use it at all, and he couldn’t use it to achieve a breakthrough!

“Elder, is there a way to turn the Aura of Divinity back to golden?”

Zhang Xuan asked with a bow.

He had to become a god. Otherwise, putting aside finding Lozosy, there was a good chance that Kong Shi would strip him of the Library of Heaven’s Path and kill him on the spot!

His life was at stake here, so he had no choice but to work hard.

“There is a way, but it won’t be that easy.”

“Elder, please enlighten me!”

Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that there was a way.

“It’s possible to purify the Aura of Divinity using the power of souls. However, it’ll require a lot of people to be of one mind and be willing to do it. As long as even a single person is of a different mind, it could lead to failure! ”

The skeleton said calmly.

Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that there was a way to purify the Aura of Divinity through the ritual.

“Un.”

The skeleton didn’t say anything else and pointed forward.

Hu!

A thought immediately flowed into Zhang Xuan and Du Qingyuan’s minds.

“This …”

After reading the content, Zhang Xuan frowned.

Just as the skeleton had said, the ritual would require a lot of people to complete, and there was a high chance that one of them would be sacrificed.

“The purpose of purifying the Aura of Divinity is to become a god. It’s nothing much in the Firmament, but in here, it’s an act of defiance against the will of the heavens. If you can do it, you can give it a try. If you can’t, there’s nothing else I can do!”

The skeleton waved its hand, and the black aura on its fingertip immediately flew over.

With a light grab, Zhang Xuan sealed the black aura within a jade bottle.

“Alright, don’t disturb me anymore. Regardless of whether you are from the Sky of Heavenly Sword or the Sky of Freedom, don’t blame me for getting nasty!”

With a wave of his hand, the skeleton waved his hand and sat back down, seemingly unwilling to speak any further.

“Thank you, elder!”

Zhang Xuan placed the jade bottle into the Myriad Anthive Nest before bowing deeply.

Even though the skeleton hadn’t given him the golden Aura of Divinity, it had given him hope and a solution.

As long as he followed the skeleton’s instructions, there was still a chance that he could succeed.

“Should I head over and devour this skeleton?”

Just as Zhang Xuan and Du Qingyuan were about to leave, Little Chick suddenly spoke up.

“Cut the crap!”

Zhang Xuan nearly fainted on the spot.

It was not that he didn’t trust the little fellow, but the little fellow was still only at Heavenly High Immortal realm, not even a Semi-Divinity realm cultivator.

Was he dreaming?

Besides, the other party didn’t have any ill intentions toward him. Even though it had injured him earlier, it didn’t kill him. On top of that, it had given him hope and a solution.

“It’s fine if you don’t want me to eat it …”

Little Chick nodded before continuing to peck at the Premier Immortal Pills.

After placating Little Chick, Zhang Xuan took a few steps back. At this moment, he suddenly recalled something, and he took off the pendant hanging on his chest. Clasping his fist, he asked, “Elder, may I be so bold as to ask of you a favor? Do you know the origin of this pendant?”
