Divine Brilliance

When he stepped off the cloud crossing carriage, Kong Rui’s face was dark and sunken as he looked at the tall and majestic Gantian Mountain.

It was less than 30 miles from here to Gantian Mountain. In just a short moment he would be able to arrive and meet Kong Ruo.

Although he knew that Yao’er was waiting for her in the city, Kong Rui resisted the urge. He asked the carriage to stop here for a moment.

He wanted to see what the fate of the country of Gantian Mountain was like!

The few Family Members beside were used to Kong Rui being like this. As for the few Gantian Mountain Grade-6 people protecting him, they all looked over curiously with weird expressions.

Kong Rui didn’t bother, taking out a compass, a bunch of tools and walked towards a hill to the side.

He measured and walked, sensing the energy below.

A moment later he paused. What clear Earth Veins, sorted out in an orderly manner! There was obviously a country protecting treasure here!

His brows relaxing slightly. With such a treasure, no matter how preposterous the ruler was, Gantian Mountain would be able to last for 20-30 years.

However, why was there a fierce and vengeful energy?

This wasn’t a good sign! To go against the path like Gantian Mountain it wouldn’t be able to last long.

He heard a low chanting echoing but he didn’t pay much attention to it. He swiftly ran forward to search for the top of the hill.

This place seemed unassuming but it was where Earth Energy gathered. It was coincidentally 36 miles from the city center, fitting with the number of Heaven!

Taoists said that when looking at energy, one could view one’s fate and predict the rise or fall of a country.

However, without their Kong Family natural ability or their own Spiritual Cultivation being high enough, the conditions would be extremely demanding. One needed to pay attention to the instruments and location and even needed a set of extremely complicated ceremonies.

As he had a god item on hand, he saved a lot of effort. However, there were some steps that he had to complete.

Standing there, he took out a sword and drew a mark beneath his feet.

When a circular Spiritual Formation slowly formed, he suddenly took out a Mind Stone and threw it out.

It was Grade-6. This Energy Viewing Technique couldn’t have even the slightest of mistakes. Beast Crystals were impure and thus he could only use Mind Stones.

Following this, there was the Yang-Winged Tiger Blood which he prepared earlier. The Tiger Blood was Yang-matured and could chase off evil and darkness…

This Yang-Winged Tiger was one of Kong’s Tiger Races, close to God Beast Level. With its blood protecting, normal evil spirits couldn’t even get close.

Following this, he tossed out 7 Paper Men covered in runes that turned into 7 people around the formation.

When 7 souls flashed in his sleeves and charged within, the Paper Men immediately started moving, like a real-life person, extremely nimble and exquisite.

Other people used Elite Beasts or Soul Beasts as bodyguards. Sword Sect would use the souls of ancient swordsmen as Sword Spirits.

However, he chose the soul of Spirit Masters!

In a short moment, many golden-colored runes lit up like stars. In just a few breaths time, a Spiritual Formation was formed.

Kong Rui didn’t hesitate, reaching out, only to hear a light buzz. A little knife-like coin flew out from the bag by his waist.

Ancient gold coins began as shells and then became this kind of knife coin. Then, it changed to circular copper coins and silver ingots.

Looking out, this Wen King divination money was dancing in the air, spinning around his body and not landing in his hands as he expected.

Kong Rui’s brow furrowed, he could feel that the money was about to leave him like there was something far away that was attracting it.

Weird…

The moment such a thought rose, Kong Rui reached out and grabbed the divination money.

He only felt the knife-shaped coin tremble, giving out crisps ringing sounds.

It was extremely strong and kept on struggling. He frowned, adding strength before he was able to control it. Then, he slowly shifted it to the front of his body.

Only when the broken hole was aligned with his eyes did it stop.

He focused his sights as he looked toward Gantian Mountain from the hole.

Kong Rui was first stunned, he saw nothing at all.

It wasn’t that the city had disappeared, within the hole it was still there.

However, in the sky above Gantian Mountain City, apart from the clear sky and a few clouds, there was nothing else…

It was really normal, but at this place, it was really weird…

There were no dark signs of weakening as he expected nor Energy Pillars rising up into the sky.

Kong Rui was shocked. He could even look at Great Shang’s country fate, why couldn’t he read Gantian Mountain’s?

Was Gantian Mountain already collapsing?

No! Even if it was wiped out, as the capital it should still have King Energy left.

Then was there something wrong with his divination spiritual formation? Or was it the divination money in his hand?

Speaking of which, since this item appeared, it was already not behaving normally.

Thinking about it for a moment, Kong Rui placed his finger on the sharp blade of the coin.

With a slight touch, a wound appeared on his skin. Blood seeped out and flowed along the knife coin.

The scene in front of him slowly started to change.

Hong!

A loud explosion. The 10,000-foot area around him shook like there was an earthquake. A weird force charged out!

The few Kong Family servants around and the Gantian Mountain Grade-6 Cultivators were all caught off guard and fell to the ground.

Kong Rui’s body shook continuously. However, his eyes stared deathly through the hole in the coin.

In that instant, a 10,000-foot large energy glow charged into the sky like a gigantic pillar placed between Heaven and Earth.

“Kong!”

Suddenly a golden shadow appeared, a long and muscular Giant Dragon circled around the pillar. Suddenly it turned its head and roared angrily like it was annoyed at the people looked at it.

Moments later, there was a shriek ever clearer than that of an eagle, more ear-piercing and high pitched.

“Golden scales, already forming a Dragon shape? Claws and teeth all equipped, crawling strength, how is this possible? Based on what the Divination Book described, it is gathering strength to fly into the air to swallow someone…”

He muttered, then his body froze up. Was that a Phoenix cry?

He raised the knife coin up slightly to adjust his field of sight, only to see a seven-colored Phoenix flying above the Energy Pillar. The Spiritual Light shone brightly, so bright that it was a little blinding…

How was this possible?

Kong Rui’s brain was instantly blank. Only when he felt a stabbing pain in his eyes did he come back to his senses.
