I Pick Up A Bunch Of Attributes

Chapter 63: After This Strike, the Thousand Autumn Valley Will Become History

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

King Zhennan, one of the four great dukes of the Xuanwu Kingdom… had arrived!

The moment he reached, the fire spiritual energy in the world seemed to be drawn out by an invisible force and instantly boiled over. It manifested into huge wheels of flame behind his head, each one higher than the last, making him look like a fire god!

Divine beings of all levels involuntarily felt a sense of pressure when facing that shadowy figure. It was an indescribably scorching incandescence that disregarded the obstructions of space. It felt as if once it erupted, it could easily burn people to ashes.

For a moment, the entire Thousand Autumn Valley fell silent both inside and outside.

It was as if there was only that majestic figure left in the world and only the crackling sounds of burning flames could be heard.

This was the imposing authority of a duke!

“King Zhennan is here a day early? How can this be?”

The thin young man’s heart suddenly clenched as he turned to look at the Sect Master of the Tianjue Sect and the others. “Could it be… because of them?”

There were indeed huge variables in the plan this time.

It was also for this reason that the Thousand Autumn Valley did not suffer any damage during the five days of siege.

“Variables can bring about a turnaround, but can also bring about a crisis…”

The young man vaguely understood what was going on.

Someone must have informed the Xuanwu imperial court, which was why a duke had personally made an appearance in advance with the intention of wiping out any hope of a turnaround, and completely destroying the former most important holy land!

“With the current strength of the Thousand Autumn Valley, perhaps only the old Sword King can hold off against King Zhennan.” The young man’s thoughts raced and sweat poured down his back and drenched his clothes. “But once the old Sword King makes a move…”

He suddenly shook his head and a bitter smile gradually appeared on his lips.

No matter how hard he racked his brains, he could not think of any countermeasures!

If the Thousand Autumn Valley wanted to stop King Zhennan, they could only rely on the Sect Master, the old Sword King, to personally make a move. However, once the old Sword King made a move, he would definitely not have the chance to break through to the Primal Core Realm in a short period of time. By the time that person arrived, the Thousand Autumn Valley would still only have death awaiting them!

“It’s a dead end either way…”

The young man took a deep breath.

He suddenly understood the meaning of “do your best and leave everything to fate”.

He had done everything he could. His companions in the shadows had also done their best. As for whether the Thousand Autumn Valley could survive or not, it might have to be left up to fate.

“Perhaps that mysterious expert… can bring us some surprises…”

At this moment, King Zhennan finally made a move.

His gaze was intent and his voice was low. “Your efficiency… is too low.”

The Tianjue Sect Master and the others subconsciously lowered their heads, not daring to refute at all.

“Senior is right.”

“The imperial court doesn’t raise useless people. You’d better take care of yourselves,” King Zhennan said indifferently. His burning gaze landed on the Thousand Autumn Valley below. “Ji Qixi, I’m here in person. Aren’t you going to come out and meet me?”

The Thousand Autumn Valley was silent and there was no response at all.

King Zhennan frowned and narrowed his eyes. Then, he relaxed his brows and uttered expressionlessly, “Since you’re not coming out, don’t blame me for taking action.”

In the Thousand Autumn Valley, Lei Shao gritted his teeth and pressed down on the sword at his waist and shouted with a thunder-like voice.

“King Zhennan… Qi Hong!”

“Oh? So it’s you.”

King Zhennan glanced at Lei Shao but his expression remained unchanged. He only shook his head and said, “Lei Shao, you’d better step back obediently. Unless… you want me to cripple you a second time?”

As soon as he said that, there was a commotion in the surroundings.

Even many disciples of the Thousand Autumn Valley looked shocked.

Many of them knew that First Elder Lei Shao had some past injuries and it had affected his further breakthrough, but almost no one had heard that Lei Shao’s injuries were caused by King Zhennan!

“Qi Hong! You can always try again!”

Lei Shao’s voice became deeper and deeper. He unsheathed the sword at his waist and the unyielding sword light vibrated. “If you want to touch the Thousand Autumn Valley, you have to step over my corpse first!”

“The current you is no longer worthy of me making a move. If that old fellow Ji Qixi doesn’t come out, no one can stop me from destroying the Thousand Autumn Valley.”

However, King Zhennan only took a glance before looking away. At the same time, he slowly reached out with one hand. With a bang, endless fire spiritual energy swarmed over!

Following this palm strike, the Five Elements Sky-Sealing Formation that enveloped the Thousand Autumn Valley suddenly lost control. The other four elements—metal, wood, water and earth—suddenly deteriorated and transformed into a vast amount of fire spiritual energy after passing through the five Five Elements Altars!

“This… this is the Five Elements Reversal!”

The Sect Master of the Five Elements Sect trembled and a strong sense of yearning appeared in his eyes. “As expected, it’s in the hands of the imperial court… that’s the missing part of the sect’s array diagram!”

A small portion of the Five Elements Sect’s array diagram for the Five Elements Sky-Sealing Formation had been missing. The Five Elements Sect had worked hard for many years but still could not complete the missing part.

Now, he suddenly realized that the imperial court happened to have the missing part of the Five Elements Sect’s array diagram!

“As expected, I made the right choice to come here this time. The Five Elements Sky-Sealing Formation is connected to my sect’s cultivation technique. If I can complete the array diagram, my sect’s strength will definitely rise to another level…”

The Sect Master of the Five Elements Sect was overjoyed.

At this moment, the Five Elements Sky-Sealing Formation had been reversed. All the spiritual energy of the other four elements seemed to have been sucked dry, leaving only the surging fire spiritual energy. Under King Zhennan’s control, it condensed into a huge flaming palm.

The huge flaming palm attacked from the air and covered the sky. Before it landed, the temperature in the Thousand Autumn Valley rose drastically, as if it was situated in a sea of hellish flames.

One could imagine that by reversing the power of the entire Five Elements Formation, such an attack would definitely be able to destroy the entire Thousand Autumn Valley and flatten it to the ground. Even divine beings who had reached the Divine Power Realm would find it difficult to escape the fatal blow of this palm!

Kaboom—

Finally, blazing flames erupted like a volcano.

Some of the weaker Thousand Autumn Valley disciples had already closed their eyes in despair.

Lei Shao had already forcefully activated his cultivation and was prepared to go forward to block this terrifying attack at the risk of being injured.

At this moment.

Qionghua Courtyard.

Feng Xia, who had fallen into deep cultivation, suddenly frowned and realized that things were no longer simple.

“Strange… Has the spiritual energy in the world suddenly increased?”

In the zifu between his eyebrows, Feng Xia’s soul was still cultivating with his eyes closed and circulating the three great cultivation techniques with all his might. However, on the Primeval Green Lotuses, all the tiny Feng Xia figures stood up one after another and crossed their arms in front of their chests as they calmly analyzed the situation.

He was now using the “leftovers” of his brain power to do some simple thinking.

“The spiritual energy in the world suddenly became thicker. Can it be that the Thousand Autumn Valley has encountered new trouble?”

“However, that traitor from before seemed to have said that it would take seven days for the experts of the imperial court to arrive, so this option can be eliminated.”

“Besides, this kind of spiritual energy is extremely violent. To others, it would only be destructive, but it’s just right for me… Perhaps I can use it to activate my Mystical Wheel!”

All the tiny Feng Xia figures chattered. The more they discussed, the more they felt that it made sense.

“From the looks of it, I must have run into another kind-hearted person who sees that I’m stuck at the Inception Realm and can’t have a breakthrough. Therefore, he’s using this method to help me.”

At the same time.

Swoosh—

It was as if a huge gluttonous mouth just flashed past. The domineering flaming palm dropped down and then suddenly disappeared without a trace just as it approached the Thousand Autumn Valley.

The world suddenly fell silent.

Only King Zhennan’s cold voice could be heard.

“After this strike, the Thousand Autumn Valley will become history.”
