Chapter 1166: The Sky Palace Appears

Yuan Venerate Huang Yue did not feel surprised when Luo Yunyang waved his stone rod to attack, as it was a weapon that Luo Yunyang had been carrying around like a treasure ever since he had obtained it from the Nine-Sky Yuan Portrait.
Although they did not think that the stone rod was anything precious, any treasure in the Nine-Sky Yuan Portrait should be somewhat unusual.
He had to take advantage and use his stone rod to fight Yuan Venerate Shengyu, but such an advantage would disappear very soon and end in utter disgrace.
Luo Yunyang’s stone rod wasn’t very fast and also had no variations. No one was surprised as they watched it collide with Yuan Venerate Shengyu’s fist in the void.
Then...
As expected, someone was thrown off his feet. Upon closer look, Yuan Venerate Huang Yue was confused. Why was Luo Yunyang flying forward?
Wasn’t he supposed to be flying backward because of the punch instead?
“Senior Brother Shengyu!” A loud scream interrupted Yuan Venerate Huang Yue’s thoughts. Yuan Venerate Huang Yue only then managed to see clearly that Yuan Venerate Shengyu had been blown away while Luo Yunyang stood unharmed and waved his stone rod.
Yuan Venerate Shengyu fell to the ground. His arm, which had collided with Luo Yunyang, had evident cracks.
If a Dakongfan Sect Yuan Venerate didn’t quickly apply ointment on him, Yuan Venerate Shengyu’s arm might already have broken to pieces.
Besides being horrified, Yuan Venerate Shengyu also seemed very fearful of Luo Yunyang as he glanced at him in disbelief.
“How is this possible?” Yuan Venerate Shengyu’s voice was trembling. “How can your strength surpass mine?”
Luo Yunyang glanced at the terrified Yuan Venerate Shengyu and grinned cheekily. “Senior Brother Shengyu, thanks for letting me win!”
Yuan Venerate Huang Yue stared at Luo Yunyang closely. Her first thought was that this guy must have been faking it all this while. However, if he had indeed been faking it, it was still impossible to pretend that he did not have Dao Energy.
“Luo Yunyang, what is up with you? Why are you stronger than Senior Brother Shengyu?”
Although she knew that it was a little inappropriate of her to ask now, Yuan Venerate Huang Yue still couldn’t resist the urge to ask.
Luo Yunyang waved the stone rod in his hand and smiled. “My strength was suppressed by the nine skies in the Vast Sky Realm and couldn’t be fully unleashed because I have no Dao Energy.”
“However, it’s different here. My powers can be unleashed fully, yet you guys cannot make use of the power of the great path laws. Naturally, none of you can compare to me.”
After he said that, he waved the stone rod in his hand again and added, “This is my paradise. Senior Brothers of the Dakongfan Sect, feel free to come challenge me if you cannot accept the outcome!”
The disciples of the Dakongfan Sect were also prideful people. Upon hearing Luo Yunyang’s provocation, they had the urge to teach him a lesson. However, Yuan Venerate Shengyu shouted first, “Stop it, everyone! Do you really think that your cultivation surpasses mine?”
Yuan Venerate Shengyu had extraordinary prestige amongst them that was second to none. Each of the other disciples shut their mouths as soon as he opened his.
“Junior Brother Yunyang, as the saying goes, there will always be someone better than you. We concede this time. The Quaking Chastise Sword is yours.” Yuan Venerate Shengyu slowly stood up and walked out of the palace hall with the help of two fellow disciples.
Yuan Venerate Huang Yue nearly couldn’t react as she stared blankly at Yuan Venerate Shengyu, who was leaving. In fact, what really troubled her was how she should treat Luo Yunyang now.
Luo Yunyang was actually really formidable! It was obviously impossible to treat him like before, but she found it very difficult to change her attitude toward him all of a sudden.
“Senior Brother Yunyang, you are the one who won the Quaking Chastise Sword for us. I think you should hold on to it,” the disciple standing left of Yuan Venerate Huang Yue told Luo Yunyang with a smile.
As soon as he spoke, someone followed him and said, “Yes, Junior Brother Yunyang. We have been here for some time and we have gained quite a lot already.”
“Junior Brother Yunyang, you just arrived. Since there’s only the Quaking Chastise Sword left, you should take it!”
“Although a longsword is not suitable for you now, swords arts are still basic skills so you will definitely find a use for it in the future. The Quaking Chastise Sword is broken, but its foundation is still intact. You will certainly improve it in the future, Junior Brother.”
“Ha ha... You might even make the Quaking Chastise Sword dazzle and shine in your care!”
Yuan Venerate Huang Yue’s face darkened as she watched her comrades. All her companions were prideful people so it was nearly impossible for them to flatter someone else.
Now, they had disregarded their own dignity and were scrambling to fawn over Luo Yunyang. Yuan Venerate Hunag Yue understood that this was not only because they had requests for Luo Yunyang but also because of the strength that Luo Yunyang had exhibited.
With sufficient strength and power, one would have the right to be respected by others no matter where they were. Luo Yunyang had given Yuan Venerate Shengyu such a harsh beatdown that he had not even had any strength to fight back, so it was evident that his strength was way above hers and everyone else’s.
Perhaps even Zheng Rulai might not necessarily be stronger than Luo Yunyang!
While this sort of person was nothing outside of Boundless Taixu, his status inside it was extremely powerful and everyone had to show him respect.
“Junior Brother Yunyang, consider it your obligation and do not refuse.”
Although Yuan Venerate Huang Yue felt very uncomfortable saying this, she still said it in the end.
Upon noticing Yuan Venerate Huang Yue’s uneasy expression, Luo Yunyang replied, “Since you seniors have modestly declined, I will not stand on ceremony.”
Then, Luo Yunyang walked toward the broken sword and stretched out his hand to grab it. He steeled his mind completely and was very forceful.
However, as Luo Yunyang’s palm came in contact with the Quaking Chastise Sword, an image appeared in his mind.
It was the image of a finger that sprung out gently. When that action occurred, the extremely sharp, unparalleled Quaking Chastise Sword shattered and broke into two.
Although this image appeared in Luo Yunyang’s mind for only a moment, it felt as though his mind had been pounded heavily by a huge hammer.
Luo Yunyang had only one thought at that moment. He was wondering what would happen to him if he were in that situation.
All his various nomological laws, his attribute regulator, and even his different abilities were taken into consideration. In the end, he realized that it would be impossible to resist that attack.
Luo Yunyang believed that he could never withstand such a technique even if he gave it his all.
He thought that he should be able to face the impending era-destroying being if his cultivation could reach the extent of power shown in that image.
“Junior Brother Yunyang, what’s the matter?” Yuan Venerate Huang Yue watched Luo Yunyang with concern, making Luo Yunyang shudder.
He looked at Yuan Venerate Huang Yue and said heavily, “I saw the Quaking Chastise Sword get shattered. I am a little shaken.”
“Junior Brother, the Quaking Chastise Sword must have been damaged by the Sacred Venerate. You were very lucky to see Lord Sacred Venerate’s attack!” The first man who jumped out had been the first to agree that Luo Yunyang should take the Quaking Chastise Sword. He now continued flattering him.
Although Luo Yunyang did not like his boot-licking actions very much, he still smiled to express his gratitude to the man.
After storing the Quaking Chastise Sword away, Luo Yunyang took one last look around the tattered palace before leaving with Yuan Venerate Huang Yue and the others.
Yuan Venerate Huang Yue and the others were very proactive in inviting Luo Yunyang to go with them, perhaps due to the strength he had displayed.
Luo Yunyang, who believed that it would be difficult to find any good things on his own, immediately agreed.
Although the team of five was still led by Yuan Venerate Huang Yue, Yuan Venerate Huang Yue could feel that Luo Yunyang’s status in the group was becoming increasingly special.
Originally, Yuan Venerate Huang Yue had still had some doubts about Luo Yunyang’s strength. However, now that Luo Yunyang had shattered a monster formed via a supreme treasure into pieces, Yuan Venerate Huang Yue began to treat him with more respect.
The five of them managed to obtain a handful of good things by joining forces. There was even a large piece of sky law fragment, which had exceeded Luo Yunyang’s expectations.
One day, Luo Yunyang was scouting the void ahead of him when he suddenly felt the nomological law fragments around him surge frantically.
In an instant, Luo Yunyang saw a dragon with its head cut off, a huge golden tiger with only two remaining legs, and an enormous divine roc without wings...
Various images flooded the void.
Yuan Venerate Huang Yue was drowned in ecstasy as she told Luo Yunyang, “Boundless Sky Palace has appeared! Ha ha ha! Boundless Sky Palace has appeared!”
Only one of the other three disciples of the Taixu Sect was smiling, while the other two disciples appeared sad.
Boundless Sky Palace was considered the final battle place of the few top supreme beings who had fought against the Sacred Venerate.
According to legend, these beings had been buried in Boundless Sky Palace.
Those who had entered this place before had gained a lot of benefits inside Boundless Sky Palace. Now, they were also about to enter this sacred place.
Unfortunately, without a Sky Seal Jade Plate, one was unable to enter Boundless Sky Palace.
“Let’s go into Boundless Sky Palace first and join Senior Brother Zheng Rulai!” Although Yuan Venerate Huang Yue knew how the two Yuan Venerates who had not obtained their Sky Seal Jade Plates were feeling, she still said with determination, “Maybe Senior Brother Zheng Rulai has a few more Sky Seal Jade Plates with him.”
Although the two Taixu Sect disciples believed that this was unlikely, they were still hopeful.
Little did they know that they would meet Zheng Rulai and his party before they even arrived at Boundless Sky Palace.
Furthermore, Zheng Rulai and his party did not even have a single Sky Seal Jade Plate.
