Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 573 - 552 Huo Tian’s Monster (1/3)

Black Donkey’s greed is as shameless as its behavior, which is unchangeable even if the seas dry up and the stones crumble.

Zhou Heng distributed the treasures he had collected from the Meng family, giving everyone a share. These items didn’t hold much value in his eyes, but it was a lively reunion celebration.

However, Black Donkey, not having the same high standards as Zhou Heng or having only recently ascended to the Immortal Realm, was enthusiastic about any treasure of Immortal level. It shamelessly competed with the ladies, its skin both thick and tough.

The women weren’t surprised that Zhou Heng had become the Moonlight Sovereign, and they were only proud of his possession of the Twenty-one Waning Moons during his time as Moonlight King. In their eyes, Zhou was meant to be dazzlingly peerless!

After talking with the ladies, Zhou Heng entered a valley and saw Huo Tian near a small lake.

This peerless Heavenly Maiden sat on a rock, playfully dipping her feet in the lake water. The shimmering surface reflected the sun’s rays, dramatically highlighting her stunning beauty.

Zhou’s heart trembled uncontrollably as if his soul had sipped a fine wine, filled with indescribable emotions.

For Lin Fuxiang, An Yumei, and the others, he felt more affection and tenderness, but only this peerless Heavenly Maiden could stir that deep chord in his heart.

To give an inappropriate example, if any of those like Han Yiyao were harmed, Zhou would definitely annihilate the perpetrator’s entire lineage in anger! However, if even a slight mishap befell Huo Tian, he would madly erase the entire world!

Huo Tian’s charm was lethal to all, regardless of age or gender. Even Ying Mengfan and the others quieted down at the sight of this peerless Heavenly Maiden playing in the water, while Black Donkey, upon seeing Huo Tian, kept its distance, drooling as it admired the treasures.

When Huo Tian saw Zhou, she merely smiled faintly and turned her face away, looking up at the mysterious sun and falling into deep thought.

"Huo Tian seems to always be lost in thought, but only occasionally gives us guidance!" Han Yiyao commented.

No matter who among the women, even the aunt and niece duo of Han Yiyao and Han Yulian gladly referred to Huo Tian as "sister". Nangong Yuerong and Orchid Concubine, being servants, always respectfully called Huo Tian "Madam."

Oddly, although Huo Tian had incredible methods to elevate the women to the Moonlight Realm, she herself remained in the Divine Infant Realm.

Zhou could understand Huo Tian’s behavior; she must have had vague memories, perhaps occasionally flashed by spiritual light, recalling past events. This feeling was terribly frustrating—everything seemed within reach, yet trying to grasp it would make it dissipate like a mirage, which was maddening.

"How did you all get here?" He couldn’t bear to spoil the beautiful contemplative scene of this peerless Heavenly Maiden, so he turned to ask the women.

"After the Star Sea pirates boarded, Huo Tian walked past them and all of them instantly submitted," they recounted.

"We waited ten days, but since you didn’t return, we decided to come here first to wait for you!"

"Yet upon reaching Xihai City, we didn’t know which way to go, so we released those from the Yang family and followed them. Huo Tian said that she would sense when you arrived and directed us not to stay guarding the Yang family, trying to gather news."

The women chattered, which was more or less what Zhou had anticipated since Huo Tian had such abilities.

"Husband, where are we going next?" Ying Mengfan asked softly, leaning on Zhou’s back, her sweet voice absolutely enchanting.

Zhou glanced over the beautiful faces of the women, his fingers twitching with eagerness, and he smiled, "Where we go next can wait, right now your husband only wants to devour all of you!"

"Pervert!"

"Lecher!"

Except for Lin Fuxiang, Mei Yixiang, and Feng Lianqing, who were still unmarried, the other women all rolled their eyes at Zhou, but their faces clearly showed their arousal, each of them pretending otherwise.

"I say, aren’t you ladies being hypocritical? When Zhou wasn’t back yet, who wasn’t yelling in the night? Now why pretend? Ah, if you don’t want him, then Zhou is all mine!" Xiao Huoshui immediately exclaimed and threw herself into Zhou’s arms.

"Who are you calling a whore?"

"You’re the whore!"

The women all laughed and cursed playfully, unlike Nangong Yuerong and Orchid Concubine, Xiao Huoshui, though a servant, was treated as an equal by the other women, unlike the mother-daughter duo who were isolated because of Zhou’s dislike.

Xiao Huoshui fully unleashed her Charming Skill, which immediately excited Zhou. With a major sweep of his arm, he gathered all the women and whisked them into the dense forest of the valley, initiating a ground-shaking battle.

The women were also long overdue, each full of energy and fighting spirit. It was fortunate that Zhou had advanced to the strength of a Moonlight King, else wrestling physically with over a dozen Moonlight Kings would certainly have left him dead tired!

They made quite a commotion, enough that even Mei Yixiang and the three further away covered their ears but still could hear, their eyes hazy and cheeks flushed with the glow of spring.

But Huo Tian seemed to have turned into a stone statue, her body enveloped by countless sparkling lights, filled with a mystical haze.

Upon spotting this, Mei Yixiang and the other girls immediately cried out, alerting not only Zhou and the other women but also startling Black Donkey, who left its treasures and dashed over, all four legs flailing.

"What’s going on? What’s going on? Was Zhou robbed?" the unreliable Black Donkey shouted as it rushed over.

Everyone ignored it and just stared at Huo Tian.

The flickering starlight particles on this peerless Heavenly Maiden became more and more dense, and even a remarkable figure like Zhou could not see through them. Buzzing, the particles spiraled around Huo Tian, morphing into various forms.

Eventually, these particles formed into a massive peach blossom, enveloping Huo Tian tightly.

"Is she about to undergo her heavenly ascent?" Black Donkey shouted excitedly.

This despicable donkey had suffered a lot at the hands of Huo Tian, and although it feared nothing in heaven or earth, it had an innate, profound fear of Huo Tian. Thus, it would definitely be overjoyed if Huo Tian disappeared.

"Scram!" Zhou Heng kicked the gloating donkey away, his eyes fixed intensely on Huo Tian.

A powerful fluctuation burst forth from the peach blossoms, and with a boom, it swept across the entire Xihai City. It even broke through the restraints of the Immortal Law of the continent, reaching the other Forty-Nine Immortal Cities and the entire universe.

Huo Tian’s aura surged tremendously.

Divinity Transformation Heavenly Venerate!

But before people could adjust to this thought, her aura advanced further, to Quasi-Immortal!

In front of Huo Tian, minor realms seemed non-existent as she leapt straight from Divinity Transformation First Layer Heaven to One Tribulation Quasi-Immortal.

The aura surged like a tidal wave, and before people could react, Huo Tian broke through again!

Moonlight Realm!

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Behind her, nine white specks appeared. In just a moment, these specks elongated into nine crescent moons and then rapidly expanded into nine waning moons!

A fully formed Nine Wheels Moon!

Nine Wheels Moonlight King!

From Divine Infant Realm to Moonlight King, she nearly completed it in an instant!

This truly was a monstrous genius!

Buzzing, hundreds of runes emerged from within Huo Tian, lighting up the sky with their splendid colors.

What terrifying power these runes possessed; even having a mere fragment was enough to subdue an Immortal Artifact of the same tier as the Fire Divine Furnace—how dreadful must complete runes be? And how many runes were there on Huo Tian?

Ying Mengfan and the other women felt weak and involuntarily collapsed to the ground, but Black Donkey was even more overwhelmed, prostrating himself completely. Now, this despicable donkey regretted deeply—Huo Tian’s ascent to a higher plane should’ve been a joyous internal affair; why did he have to voice it out loud?

Hasn’t he brought this upon himself?

Two hundred and six runes surrounded Huo Tian, infusing mysterious power into the Nine Wheels Moon. In just a blink, these runes retracted into her body.

Her aura then stabilized immediately, her long eyelashes fluttering slightly as Huo Tian opened her eyes. Her delicate feet continued to tap the water surface as if she hadn’t realized her cultivation level had risen!

A qualitative leap from mortal to immortal!

"Huo Tian," Zhou Heng went over to her, no longer able to hold back his desire to hear her voice, which was like a celestial melody.

Huo Tian stopped kicking water and turned to look at Zhou Heng. She then pointed to a rock beside her and said, "Sit!"

Zhou Heng was first stunned, then immediately felt a surge of being favored and flattered.

Although he had taken advantage of Huo Tian on many occasions, he had never been invited by this Peerless Heavenly Maiden to sit by her side. This caused his heart to thump wildly, like a young man freshly in love, nervous and out of sorts in the presence of the woman he adored.

Approaching Huo Tian, Zhou sat down beside her, inhaling her faint, enchanting scent, and suddenly, his soul felt at peace, all tension evaporating.

He loved Huo Tian, with a genuine affection that came from deep within. Since his love was true, why should he be nervous?

"Were you cultivating just now?" Zhou Heng asked curiously. Previously on Xuanqian Star, Huo Tian had barely cultivated a bit and nearly drained the entire star! Though the spiritual energy in the Immortal Realm was rich, he hadn’t sensed any reduction or movement in the surrounding spiritual energy just now.

"Cultivating?" Huo Tian smiled lightly.

Already an extraordinary beauty, her smile was like the simultaneous bloom of flowers in a valley, rendering both the sky softer and brighter.

Her beauty mesmerized both men and women; not only did Zhou tremble, but the other women displayed intoxicated expressions as well.

"I wasn’t cultivating, just recalling some matters!" the Peerless Heavenly Maiden said softly, parting her red lips.

Zhou sweated profusely, thinking himself a prodigy; but compared to Huo Tian... just recalling some events elevated her from the Divine Infant Realm straight to Moonlight King. This cultivation technique was indeed unprecedented and unmatched!

However, considering Huo Tian’s background, nearly equal to that of the original master of Black Sword, whether due to severe injury or rebirth, her way of cultivation as a matchless expert was indeed beyond ordinary understanding.
