NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1156: Divine Bow of Light
Pan Chenyu tried, but unlike Sun Wukong and Tangyu, he couldn't even touch the edge of that bright moon, no matter how much effort he put in. In the end, he had no choice but to give up, but fortunately, he did manage to fish out a treasure, which wasn't too bad—a middle-grade Daoist Artifact, extremely valuable.
To be able to fish out a treasure from the well was considered extremely fortuitous, as it was rare that even one in a hundred could do so. Moreover, it was a middle-grade Daoist Artifact, which Pan Chenyu was quite satisfied with. It was a strangely shaped dagger, looking somewhat like a short knife. The entire body was blue, flickering with a chilling gleam that was shocking to behold. Pan Chenyu gently slashed the dagger through the air, and though he didn't use the Power of Yin Yang, the dagger was sharp enough to slice open a thin black crack in space.
What he saw was enough to shock people; the dagger was terrifyingly sharp. If this dagger struck, not even a Divine Demon Body like Tangyu's could withstand it.
This dagger could entirely become a trump card for Pan Chenyu. If used at a critical moment, it would surely have miraculous effects. Many eyes were envious of the dagger, but the strength Sun Wukong showed earlier was too formidable, so naturally, no one dared to covet the dagger in Pan Chenyu's hand at this time.
Pan Chenyu joyfully put the dagger away, and Xuanyuan Wushang was the last to appear. As a member of the Xuanyuan Clan, Xuanyuan Wushang's appearance naturally drew attentive gazes. Almost everyone focused on Xuanyuan Wushang, eager to see what astonishing feat this member of the Xuanyuan Clan would perform. The performances of Tangyu and the other two were enough to make people both admire and marvel. The most prominent member of this group of four naturally received even more attention.
Xuanyuan Wushang's expression became solemn, and he showed a serious look on his face, suddenly reaching his hand into the well.
However, Xuanyuan Wushang soon shook his head. Unlike Sun Wukong or Tangyu, he did not feel any closeness; his hand reached down but couldn't get near that bright moon, as if separated by a world, unattainable.
"Buddha blesses those with fate, and treasures choose those with fate. It seems I lack the destiny to touch that bright moon. Enough, there's no need to force it," Xuanyuan Wushang directly gave up, retrieving his hand casually. As he pulled his hand out, a light followed Xuanyuan Wushang's hand out of the water. Evidently, he had grabbed a treasure. Although he didn't touch the moon, Xuanyuan Wushang still managed to seize a treasure.
It was a divine bow, shaped like a crescent moon, entirely snow-white, remarkably beautiful, like a divine bow made of white jade. It was heavy and ancient, an aura of antiquity emanated from it, hinting it had been sealed for an unknown amount of time until now. The divine bow's brilliance gradually emerged.
Xuanyuan Wushang held the bow with a hint of delight on his face. There was a bow but no arrow, and drawing this bow was not an easy task. Xuanyuan Wushang mobilized his strength, the Power of Light gushing from his hands to its utmost extremity. Only by using the Power of Light could he finally draw this divine bow. As the light moved, the Power of Light automatically condensed into an arrow, with a terrifying might radiating from the arrowhead, shaking the heavens, as if the entire universe was shocked into awe and froze.
Feeling the divine bow's might, Tangyu was also surprised. It was truly a terrifying power, making even Tangyu feel at risk of his life if this arrow was aimed at him; it might slay him on the spot.
"The Power of Light, could Xuanyuan Wushang be cultivating the Light Path, perhaps he possesses a Body of Divine Light?" Tangyu mused to himself, having never clashed with Xuanyuan Wushang, so he naturally didn't know Xuanyuan Wushang's true strength. Seeing him using full force now, Tangyu realized Xuanyuan Wushang was indeed cultivating the Light Path. Those who could cultivate the Light Path were extremely rare, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them a once-in-a-lifetime occurrence. As far as Tangyu knew, there were only two others: the Holy Maiden and the young lady, and he hadn't heard of anyone else.
Pan Chenyu clicked his tongue, saying, "Rumor has it that the Xuanyuan Clan is descended from the God of Light, that their descendants contain the bloodline of the God of Light, and if this bloodline awakens, they are naturally born with a Body of Divine Light, naturally aligned with the Light Path, allowing them to directly cultivate the Light Path. Xuanyuan Wushang can perform the Xuanyuan Sword Technique, and I guessed as much. It seems I was right. This bow seems specifically made for cultivators of the Light Path, probably only drawable with the Power of Light, which then forms the Sword of Light, hence its terrifying might. I feel that this single arrow could probably shoot down a Zifu Realm cultivator."
Tangyu nodded, "Yes, I feel the same way. This divine bow is incredibly formidable, I'm not sure what quality treasure it is, but I feel it should at least be an upper-grade Daoist Artifact."
Pan Chenyu thought for a moment and said, "I have heard of a divine bow called the Divine Bow of Light, a top-grade Daoist Artifact, with a formidable reputation during the Ancient Era. The user of this Divine Bow of Light was known as the King of Light, with boundless combat prowess, earning legendary fame throughout the Ancient Times with it. Once the Divine Bow of Light appeared, it could sweep across the universe, compelling the allegiance of all. This bow feels like the Divine Bow of Light, and if it truly is the Divine Bow of Light, its value would be immeasurable. Xuanyuan Wushang indeed has great fortune."
Whoosh—
A sudden piercing sound emitted from the divine bow, and the arrow formed from the Power of Light shot out, like a beam of extreme light piercing the sky, heading far away with incredible speed, dazzling beyond compare. The holy light illuminated the entire sky, making it seem as if the whole sky was about to be pierced through by this arrow. Earth-shattering, the might of the arrow reached an unimaginable level, terrifying beyond measure.
Rumble—
This arrow also shot to an extremely distant place, directly hitting a large mountain, and actually destroyed the entire mountain. The entire mountain disappeared in front of everyone's eyes in an instant, turning into ashes, no longer existing.
This scene left everyone speechless, it was too terrifying.
Xuanyuan Wushang felt an exhilarating feeling after shooting this arrow, it was too satisfying. Looking at the godly bow in his hand, Xuanyuan Wushang smiled and put it away. This time, he had reaped great rewards. The Luoyu Immortal Palace indeed had countless opportunities. As long as you have this fortune, you will definitely achieve great harvests. That's why so many people are desperate to enter the Luoyu Immortal Palace.
Sun Wukong also commented, "What an incredible arrow! Even I, Old Sun, feel that I might not be able to block it. What is this bow, how can it be so formidable?"
Tangyu and Pan Chenyu were also looking at Xuanyuan Wushang with great anticipation.
Xuanyuan Wushang smiled and said, "Pretty lucky to have found the Divine Bow of Light, renowned in the Ancient Times. It's a pity there's no accompanying Divine Arrow of Light. If there were a Divine Arrow of Light, it would be considered a complete top-grade Daoist artifact. Without it, the power of the Divine Bow of Light is greatly reduced. Although I can use the Power of Light to form arrows, they are not true Divine Arrows of Light. Unless my realm reaches the Seeking Immortal stage, perhaps then the condensed Divine Arrow of Light would match the true ones in power. It's a bit of a pity, but I'm still satisfied. After all, it is a top-grade Daoist artifact."
"Haha, but compared to you, Sun Wukong and Tangyu, I still fall short. Only compared to Pan Chenyu can I find some sense of superiority."
Tangyu grinned and said, "Not necessarily, you have the Body of Divine Light and cultivate the Light Path, so this Divine Bow of Light must have chosen you. A top-grade Daoist artifact is no less valuable than a middle-grade Immortal Treasure. Your luck is not lesser than ours."
Xuanyuan Wushang laughed heartily, "Let's not talk about this. Anyway, we've all had significant gains this time. This journey to the Luoyu Immortal Palace should be the starting point of our ascent. However, this is just the beginning; we still have plenty of time. I believe that after five years in the Luoyu Immortal Palace, we will all have undergone a transformation. Hopefully, by then, our strength will have reached the level we desire. The people from the Hongchen Palace have started to make a move, and the dangers we'll face in the future will only grow. So we must seize this opportunity; its significance to us is immeasurable."
Tangyu and Pan Chenyu nodded, indeed, the Red Dust Calamity also hinted at terrifying dangers. Only strength can provide a measure of self-preservation in such turbulent waves.
Xuanyuan Wushang said, "Let's go, let's explore elsewhere. There are many wonders in the Luoyu Immortal Palace worth venturing into. If we can seize them, each wonder should bring us some gains."
Tangyu and the others left, and the remaining over forty people erupted in astonishment.
"What kind of godly bow did Xuanyuan Wushang obtain? How could it be so terrifying? One shot, and it seems it could kill someone in the Zifu Realm."
"I guess it's likely the Divine Bow of Light, a top-grade Daoist artifact renowned in the Ancient Times. If it truly is the Divine Bow of Light, that's terrifying. A Golden Core Realm can actually own the Divine Bow of Light; if word got out, it would surely stir countless hearts. However—since Xuanyuan Wushang is from the Xuanyuan Clan, probably no one would dare to target him."
"Divine Bow of Light? Could it really be the Divine Bow of Light?"
"So terrifying, these four individuals, each seems like an evil demon. A spirit monkey, someone from the Xuanyuan Clan, and a disciple of the Jiuzhou Immortal Sect, it's all too monstrously defying. Together, these individuals likely mean there's no one in the Luoyu Immortal Palace that could compare to their Sakura Peak."
"But you can't say that. There are still plenty of powerful people in the Luoyu Immortal Palace; don't forget about those few who have been in the Luoyu Immortal Palace for over four years now, all of whom are above the Golden Core Sixth Layer, with absolute strength to slay those in the Zifu Realm. Although these four are monstrously defiant, they've only just entered the Luoyu Immortal Palace."
