Chapter 1236: Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty-Nine: Heaven and Earth Net Chapter 1236: Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty-Nine: Heaven and Earth Net Cultivators are a group of people constantly discovering the truth.

In ancient times, people believed that the presence of the sun and moon was to divide yin and yang.

Thus, they determined that the skies leaned to the northwest, hence the gathering of rainfall and dust; the earth lacked in the southeast, hence the shift of the sun, moon, and stars there;

However, great cultivators later discovered that the movements of the sun, moon, and stars were free and followed their own rules, without interfering with each other.

Even the mighty sun could not dominate the vast heavens alone; it merely shone so brightly that it covered the brilliant light of countless stars.

Therefore, the best way to conceal the power of the stars is not to find a night so dark that one cannot see one’s own hand, but a cloudless sunny day.

Noon is an excellent time, with the blazing sun hanging directly overhead, who could notice the hidden starlight?

The greatest achievement of the Wang Clan in the past century was to send the Twenty-Eight True Celestial Stars into the Nine Heavens to channel the power of the celestial stars, forming the Starry Sky Great Array with these stars. Through this array, the disciples of the Wang Clan could channel the power of the stars at specific times for killing enemies, protection, teleportation, and cultivation.

Based on the different enlightenments from the stars, the disciples’ use of the Starry Sky Great Array also varied. These twenty-eight created stars, influenced by the main stars, continuously changed positions across the vast sky.

For those Wang Clan disciples who could only sense a few of the created stars, their ability to use the Starry Sky Great Array was very limited in terms of time and location.

But for those disciples who could sense a large number of created stars, the power derived from the Starry Sky Great Array was terrifying.

The former Saint Child of the Southern Tian, Wang Chang, was particularly adept at using the Starry Sky Great Array.

Ziwei, Tian Ji, Wu Qu, Qi Sha, Po Jun, Tanlang Star, Ju Men, Tian Xiang, Tian Liang…

As each created star took its place, Wang Chang channeled more and more power from the stars, and the Starry Sky Great Array grew increasingly powerful. The elite soldiers of the Forest Department, feeling the surging mighty power of the man, showed a hint of fanatic reverence in their eyes.

What was the Devil Lord compared to him?

To the elite forces of the Forest Department led by the Dutian Heavenly King, the only notable record of this person was driving back Victorious Venerable Liaoyin; as for the assassination of the weak Wang Chan Saint Child, it was merely an opportunistic ambush, not worth mentioning.

Having just received the news, they rushed to Chaochang on the Heavenly Patrol Boat, precisely to capture this madman and let the world know that the Dutian Heavenly King was still the Dutian Heavenly King.

The thought of being unable to win or failing never crossed the minds of the elite members of the Forest Department, because they were led by Wang Chang!

Clad in a dark dragon-embroidered robe with a dragon tendon silk belt around his waist, his black, luscious hair hanging loosely behind, the roughly chiseled side profile of his face slightly lifted, with lazily set eyes directly facing the scorching sun, his robust figure filled with masculine aura was unforgettable.

Wang’s lament, fallen Saint Child, the strongest of the Forest Department… Wang Chang had many titles, representing different stages of his life.

But walking down this path today, people seldom mention Wang Chang’s past, as this fallen Saint Child had shut all mouths with his dazzling achievements.

Breaking formations alone, defeating tribal chiefs and defeating grandmasters, one man against a thousand.

In the years of Wang’s rise, this had been Wang Chang’s daily routine, but in recent years, with the increase of elite forces in the Forest Department, he seldom acted personally.

His proactive command to come to Chaochang this time was also because the Devil Lord posed a significant threat that the Wang Family urgently needed to eliminate.

Had it not been for Wang Fuling’s timely arrival two years ago, the Tian Southern Wang Clan would have lost their Saint Child and become a laughingstock of the Xihesa Holy Land.

The escape of the Devil Lord Gouchen was like slapping the Wang Clan across the face.

If given the chance, each disciple of the Wang Clan would stake their lives to capture the Devil Lord; Wang Chang was no exception.

Having set up the Starry Sky Great Array, Wang Chang exited the star-gazing state and inspected his masterpiece, his heart swelling with pride.

As long as the Devil Lord dared to come to the Wilderness, he would ensure that he could come but never leave!

…

Since the deal was his own arrangement, Tang Luo naturally had no reason to miss the appointment, but as he approached the northwest shack from the southeast of the Wilderness via the Spirit World Passage, he suddenly halted his steps from afar.

“It seems that I still overestimated the intelligence of the Xiang Family and your importance to them,” he said.

Grabbing Xiang Lan by the nape of her neck, Tang Luo threw her to the ground and said coldly, “Stop pretending, you should have woken up ten breaths ago.”

As Xiang Lan hit the ground, she opened her eyes and stood up silently, her head bowed, saying nothing.

Still, her trembling body revealed the fear in her heart.

Although she did not understand why the Devil Lord spoke these dispirited words from such a distance, she knew the situation was very unfavorable for him.

Her only chance of survival now was because the Xiang Family valued her; if that valuation ceased, she could hardly imagine her fate.

“I said to have Xiang Yan come alone for the trade, yet you set up a sky net without any sincerity.”

Behind his mask, Tang Luo curled his lips as he looked at the northwest shack enveloped by the power of the stars, feeling that all his plans had gone to waste.

He had exerted so much effort just to make Xiang Lan believe she had been implanted with a Spirit Seed and was controlled by others, facilitating the next step of his plan.

He had thought that even if the Xiang Family was reckless, they would at least complete the trade first, evaluate the situation in Chaochang, and then proceed with an ambush, but the current situation clearly indicated the Xiang Family had other plans.

Moreover, with the assistance of the Wang Clan from the south, although that robust stellar power was secretly merged within the Heavenly and Earthly Qi, camouflaged by the sunlight, Tang Luo knew that as soon as he stepped into that region, those stars would transform into divine pillars and imprison him.

Having suffered a major setback before, Tang Luo remembered well these techniques surpassing those of the Fierce Realm warriors.

It seemed the trade could no longer proceed, Tang Luo thought to himself, and was about to knock Xiang Lan unconscious when he unexpectedly grabbed nothing.

“Don’t kill me, please don’t kill me, I’ll do anything, just don’t kill me,” she pleaded.

Once again collapsed on the ground, Xiang Lan cried with tear-streaked cheeks, looking pitiful as she sobbed and begged Tang Luo.

It seemed she had misunderstood something. Tang Luo couldn’t help but chuckle, retracting his empty right hand and said indifferently, “You wouldn’t even part with half a Divine Artifact, which clearly shows your standing within the Xiang Family. What use do I have for you?”

Nothing hurt more than the truth. Xiang Lan’s breath hitched, and her slender fingers, due to being overly forceful, embedded in the ground, her chest filled with an overwhelming hatred, almost bursting forth.

All these years, if it were not for her family, why would she assume Yun Xiu’s identity to become a puppet, to be manipulated and driven?

Anyone could see her importance in Chaochang; countless powerful clans and sects had courted her in both overt and covert manners, yet for the sake of her family, she had refused them all. But what had her loyalty earned her?
