Chapter 584 A Plan

The person in question wore a blank white mask, had her arms coldly crossed, and above her head was a very vague, sharp-edged blue orb.

It was from this blue orb that the all-powerful ice-sword presence engulfed the training field!

This was the power of the masked woman starorb. Just faintly stimulating her star orb brought out a sweeping momentum. The momentum that could only belong to an empress of ice!

Her Divine Laws could stretch as vast as the universe. With a thought, she can overturn the laws and rules of the mortal world.

If she wanted to, all would submit to her. Even Holy King masters wouldn't so causally provoke her.

This was the mysterious genius that continues to sweep through the Deep Sword Sect, Huang Kali.

Naturally, not a single soul knew of Kali's true origin. But just that couldn't stop her from suppressing the younger generation.

Kali's cold gaze was hidden, but her tone could still pierce bones with a frosty power.

She plainly said, "So, you really think trying to scheme against my people and me and then apologizing for it would let you all of? Do you really think I won't hesitate to kill the three of you if you don't offer me something good?"

The natural tone of an empress. Her overbearing pressure only turned more suffocating with each word she spoke. She completely controlled the life and death of these three geniuses at this moment!

The three direct disciples all went pale. They more than knew just how was Kali's terrifying backer within their Holy Land.

Out of them all, she could actually be damned of all consequences with only light punishments!

The direct disciples shivered. Their skins crawled as terrifying cold sweat slowly dribbled down their faces. Fear, true fear, emerges in their minds.

Divine Wills can only reinforce a cultivator's mind by so much. When faced with an overwhelming wave of pressure and fear, any Divine Will can crumble.

If a mortal were facing such pressure, their heads would've already combusted into a horrific sight!

The half-step Holy King genius was quick to say, "Of course, martial sister! Anything that you want, we'll be sure to give it to you. Just please name anything you want!"

"Anything, huh?" Kali slowly tilted her head. Underneath her mask, a malicious smile slowly grew. "I can't seem to think of anything for the moment. So here's what I will do. If there is something I need, I will call you three on it. While you're out of my sight, you really shouldn't get any wild thoughts. After all, I will know your every move. Now then, scram out of here. I have thoughts to ponder on."

She casually waved her hand. Her vague ice-sword starorb recalled into her body.

The terrifying ice-sword presence vanished from the field. Everything returned back to a serene calm.

"Haah..."

The three direct disciples fells straight to their asses. Everything was over with, and yet their minds and bodies were still trembling. They were all completely suppressed.

Such a thing made a complete mess of their Divine Wills and state of mind.

But instead of letting it show on their faces, the direct disciples gave a strained smile at Kali.

"We thank martial sister for her graciousness."

With that, the trio quickly shot off into the skies. Their light beams moved at their fastest speeds.

None of them were willing to stay a second longer! Almost as if they were truly scrambling out of Kali's sight for their lives.

Left alone, Kali was about to head toward her own residency. But a mental pulse soon pinged through her mind.

'Martial sister! That was so domineering. No, you were just like a ruler! I'm so glad those three finally ate shit! They've been annoying for far too long.'

Kali lightly chuckled as she answered the contact ring. 'Those three are only minor characters. Nowhere near enough for us to pay attention to.'

'Oh, that's true. But...why did you let them go? I don't mean anything by this question, martial sister. I am just curious.'

'Because it'll be more troublesome to kill them. Like it or not, those three are valuable to the Holy Land. So they can run around, for now. But enough about those three. Prepare yourself with a free mind now. It's close to our trip to the central Starfield.'

'Ah! Right away, martial sister. I won't disappoint!'

The contact ring soon ended after that.

Kali quietly sighed, alone with her thoughts. Unfathomable power coursed through her veins. Her attainments with Source Laws brought her immense joy.

But there was still one nagging thought eating away at her mind. 'I can safely protect myself with this kind of power. But, what about you, brother? And I can't believe I'm thinking of this, but surely Amber is alright with him? Hah, whatever. No use in thinking in circles. I need to prepare myself...'

...

Atlas Realm, Wintry World.

Inside Cloudsea Holy Land.

Deep within and through several transmission arrays would one end up at a specific Supreme Elder quarter.

Inside this Supreme Elder's home, the meeting between master and disciple was under its way.

The disciple in question was a powerful genius of this generation. The azure shine within his eyes could slice apart the air, slice apart mountains and even slice apart other Divine Rulers.

His streaks of power can generate violent wind storms. The razor-sharp wind would mine divine bodies into mincemeat.

On his own, he could rule over a small domain. Not even other ordinary early-stage Divine Rulers would be able to resist him.

He was direct disciple, Lin Zui.

The Supreme Elder in question exists in a separate dimension of power.

His very presence could stir every force in the universe. A wave from him can split open space and even cause the summon of a ferocious space storm.

These space storms can shatter worlds to very ashes and mercilessly annihilate thousands of Holy King masters.

This was a grandmaster who has deep attainments with the True Great Dao. Being able to generate a force that overturns the heavens and sweeps through the stars.

He was Supreme Elder Gao.

At this time, Lin Zui stayed kneeling with a confused expression. For some time now, his master left him on his own. He believed that Elder Gao had gone into closed-door cultivation.

But to his surprise, here he was, kneeling for apparently important news.

Lin Zui's curiosity got the better of him. He asked, "Master, has something happened in the Wintry World. Nothing can usually make you move unless it's very grand."

Elder Gao didn't promptly respond. His gaze appeared completely indifferent as if there wasn't a hint of emotions in his thoughts.

It was only after contemplating several matters that Elder Gao slowly spoke up. "Months ago, Juo Wei, a gold World Spirit Master, was mysteriously killed. Even to this day, it is completely unknown on he died. Even I am still confused about his death."

"Juo Wei?" Lin Zui was a bit startled. That was a name he nearly forgot about after all this time.

His disappearance was always a burning question in everyone's mind, but it wasn't like they lacked other gold World Spirit Masters.

Confused, Lin Zui asked, "What about Juo Wei, master? Before his death, he was very loyal to our Holy Land. I didn't think he would have some hidden ploys left after his mysterious death."

"This is not about if he had some hidden agenda." Elder Gao shook his head. "Rather, I have worked with Juo Wei for some time now. And I have uncovered something very interesting that surprised even me. Juo Wei had made terrifying discoveries on the Slave Insect race. He was even fostering an insect that had already reached the grandmaster level."

"This...?" Lin Zui felt a cold chill creep down his spine.

There were many demonic arts that seemed vile, or even completely evil in Divine Cultivators' eyes.

The Slave Insect race was one such insidious art. Without one even suspecting it, they would become a mindless drone for somebody else!

To have one's free will be taken away was a terrifying thought for any cultivator.

"So he had such terrifying means up his sleeves? If you have it now, master...what are you planning on doing with those bugs?"

Since it was on their side, Lin Zui didn't care much about how demonic the bug was. He was simply glad to not be on the receiving end.

At this point, Elder Gao's emotionless face began to slowly change. A slow smirk crept its way onto his face. "During my seclusion, I made some changes to the Slave Insect. My plans now concern Lee and Amber. Previously, I believed they would be a potential threat to everything. But now, with my new discovery and Lee's recent showcase of prowess, the best course of action is to completely control Lee."

"You-you mean...enslaving a Divine Mortal?!" Lin Zui's eyes were open wide. Tremors continually struck through his body.

"But-but how? Elder Xi has a 24/7 watchful eye over them. And Lee is far superior to me. And Xun is always by Lee's side and won't meet with anyone else but him or Elder Xi."

Elder Gao's smile was still causal. "All that is indeed true. But, we have two advantages on our side. The whereabouts of the life vein root and Lan Rui's attachment to Lee. To think I found this attachment troublesome to my own desires. Now, everything will fall into place because of it. Just from my words alone, I'm sure you can tell what I am planning, right?"
