Peerless Immortal Emperor in City

Chapter 889 887: Such Boldness!

Su Ying is a deity appointed by Qin Heng.

All her powers actually stem from Qin Heng's appointment. Apart from her own Divine Soul, her Divine Body and other aspects are also granted through Qin Heng's appointment.

The method Qin Heng uses to appoint deities comes from his past life's insights when playing with the Investiture of the Gods and the Smite God Whip. Given his Dao cultivation Realm, the deities he appoints naturally possess Divine Power containing the authority of the Law.

After all, the characteristic of a deity is to wield a certain authority of the Law. Just by using a trace of Divine Power, one can touch upon the Laws represented by the divine authority, unleashing great might.

This is precisely what the cultivators of the Divine Arts in the Realm of Firmament myriad Gods pursue.

They visualize the images of the Divine Bodies from legends, crafting their Divine Souls in the likeness of deities, growing stronger step by step to gain Divine Power.

But this Divine Power, at the start, is merely a form of power. There is no fundamental difference between it and Martial Dao's True Qi, True Strength, or True Gang, except that it contains more Divine Soul Power and may come with Mental Attack, but lacks the fierceness of Martial Dao's power, not being particularly special.

Therefore, one of the goals of Divine Arts cultivators is to acquire a part of the deity's authority and imprint it into their own Divine Power!

This is to make the originally non-special Divine Power contain the real ability of divine authority, meaning the power of the Law. Normally, reaching the level comparable to a Saint King is required to achieve this.

But now, Su Ying's power aura clearly is only at the Saint Lord level.

Yet, her Saint Lord level Divine Power surprisingly contains the power of the Law's authority, which greatly shocked Wang Dang. In his view, this was simply impossible and instantly made his greed surge fiercely.

Upon hearing Qin Heng's words, he immediately shifted his extreme greed towards Qin Heng.

"You want me to make you a god?" Qin Heng looked at Wang Dang with cold eyes and chuckled softly, "I won't lightly bestow the God Position to anyone. Someone like you doesn't qualify to be appointed by me."

"Then don't blame me for being impolite!" Wang Dang's gaze towards Qin Heng was filled with murderous intent as he sneered, "By killing you and searching your soul, I can still obtain the method to acquire the power of the Law's authority, not to mention gaining the merit of heaven and earth and immense fortune! Prepare to die!"

He directly attacked Qin Heng.

The Divine Arts cultivator, akin to the Sixth Heaven of the Great Saint, soared into the sky, looking down at Qin Heng, his body enveloped in bright silver radiance, like feathers of light, incredibly dazzling.

"Su Ying, I've changed my mind now. You don't have to return to the sect." Wang Dang snorted coldly, his gaze on Su Ying, "The traitor Su Ying, colluding with an outsider heretic, dared to offend the Moonlight Sect's governance office in Jade Beauty City. She was exterminated on the spot by me! Did you all hear that?"

"Understood!"

"Got it!"

"Senior Brother Wang is truly extraordinary! The traitor is subdued!"

The more than ten True Disciples of the Moonlight Sect immediately understood. Wang Dang wanted to directly obtain the method to acquire the power of the Law's authority and the merit and fortune from killing the heretic, rather than handing it over to the sect.

If Su Ying and the heretic were brought back to the sect, the method to gain the power of the Law's authority would likely be sealed by the sect, only obtainable with high sect contributions.

Besides Wang Dang, these onlookers probably wouldn't have the opportunity to acquire it. As for the merit and fortune, even Wang Dang himself might not attain it.

Moreover, since this person has the method to obtain the power of the Law's authority, there might be other powerful Secret Techniques, all fortuitous encounters that cannot be forced. Should they be turned over to the sect, these Secret Techniques might not be disclosed, greatly diminishing Wang Dang's gains.

But if Wang Dang kills the heretic now and also kills Su Ying, then only he will obtain the merit and fortune as well as the method to acquire the power of the Law's authority and any possibly existing other powerful Secret Techniques. Such rewards would surely surpass turning them over to the sect!

Most importantly, those of them who are ordinary Saint level disciples and have witnessed and participated in this event, Wang Dang is unlikely to keep everything to himself. He will at least reveal the method to acquire the power of the Law's authority to them.

Thus, these dozen or so Moonlight Sect disciples began envisioning themselves boldly wielding authority-laden Divine Power in the future, impressing everyone and making former rivals tremble in awe.

Rumble!

At this moment, suddenly there was a loud noise. The airborne Wang Dang emitted extremely bright moonlight, much like a full moon flying in the sky, dazzling everyone in Jade Beauty City, compelling them to look up.

Then, he plummeted!

With a force akin to the Sixth Heaven of the Great Saint, the void quivered, creating ripples like water waves, causing Yuan Qi to surge and generating fierce gales, spreading outward!

Many trees at the mountain gate were snapped in half by the winds, mountains tens of kilometers away swayed, as if they might collapse at any moment.

The space stability of the Great Thousand World greatly surpasses that of Earth, where Spiritual Energy hasn't fully recovered. Thus, even an attack from the Sixth Heaven of the Great Saint doesn't exhibit earth-shattering powers like on Earth.

"So powerful! This is our Moonlight Sect's Divine Art, Falling Moon from the Sky!"

"Senior Brother Wang Dang's strength is indeed extraordinary, reaching such mastery of this Divine Art!"

"Haha, making Senior Brother Wang Dang use Divine Art, they're dying for a worthy cause."

"Two mere Saint Lords, for a powerhouse like Senior Brother Wang Dang at the Sixth Heaven of the Great Saint to use Divine Art on them, they're being overly esteemed."

"It's an honor for them."

The dozen or so Moonlight Sect disciples sneered coldly, looking at Qin Heng and Su Ying. In their view, the two were doomed; mere Saint Lords couldn't possibly withstand Wang Dang's attack.

Buzz!!

As the falling moon was about to crash onto where Qin Heng and Su Ying stood, the void shook more violently, even causing slight tremors at the Moonlight Sect's mountain gate.

"Do you still wish to return to the sect and face punishment?" Qin Heng wasn't even looking at Wang Dang's attack but instead spoke to Su Ying beside him, "Just how many Moonlight Sect people have tried to kill you now?"

"..." Su Ying remained silent, then sighed softly, "I understand now. Thank you, Immortal Venerable. From this moment on, everything is up to you. I will be your and Golden Mother's most loyal Divine Envoy."

She completely gave up on the Moonlight Sect. She had harbored illusions about the sect before, even considering herself a disciple of the Moonlight Sect, but now she had wholly aligned herself with Qin Heng, more specifically as the Divine Envoy appointed by Qin Heng.

"Alright." Qin Heng nodded slightly, raising his hand, which appeared profound and mysterious, looking at Wang Dang with a light smile, "I should thank you for helping her resolve her dilemma. Now, you can die."

"Hahaha! A small Saint Lord boasting grandly, what do you think you are? Die!" The laughter from within the moon that Wang Dang had morphed into was deafening, unmatched Divine Power crashing down fiercely towards Qin Heng and Su Ying.

"A mere grain of rice dares to shine, truly laughable." Qin Heng gently shook his head, to him a mere Sixth Heaven of the Great Saint was as insignificant as an ant, worth nothing. He raised his hand high as if to overturn the heavens and smash the universe!

"Immortal Law, Turning Heaven Seal!"

Slash!

At that moment, the void was abruptly torn, a brilliant silver light filled with serenity and coldness shot forth from Zhong Yushan, paving a path seemingly forged from moonlight across the sky.

Simultaneously, a shrouded figure in brilliant silver emerged from Moonlight Sect on Zhong Yushan, walking slowly along the path, this figure graceful and alluring, like a deity descending from the high celestial moon.

Then, a clear yet icy voice resounded.

"Stop at once, how dare you kill my Moonlight Sect's True Disciple! Such audacity!"
