Chapter 1425: Searching Among The Stars

Wu Yu himself did not expect the transformation of this Rainbow Pearl.

The blinding light was enough for everyone to see his face for an instant.

Of course, Qing Xuan Immortal Lord’s face reveal did not matter.

Everything had happened too quickly. He had just felt the thrill of getting the Rainbow Pearl when he saw that the other two had it as well. In his confusion, he had then been booted out, and he had not yet had the chance to hide it.

The three of them hurriedly kept their sparkling pearls, and the light faded.

But in that instant, many had already seen their faces.

"It’s Gu Huo Immortal Lord! Immortal Mo! And......" They did not recognize the third person.

"They got the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King!"

Someone shouted!

Suddenly, all of them were jolted into action. They hurriedly kept the three rainbow pearls.

Even if they had not directly obtained the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King, but they had evidently come out furthest ahead from this!

The rainbow pearl drew the eye, and so every immortal lord and ghostly immortal headed for the three of them and attacked without hesitation!

Amongst them were the likes of Chakravarti Ghostly King and Volcanic Hell master, who had waited for all too long!

As well as the other ghostly kings who had been hidden in waiting.

Wu Yu was not worried. He could leave in a flash. But he was curious. How would Gu Huo Immortal Lord and Mo Yuji get themselves out of this situation?

The situation was in a mess now, and even if they were killed, no one would know who the killer was.

Besides, there were many other blood-hungry ghostly immortals!

Although Wu Yu knew that he had to take away what they had, but it seemed close to impossible to snatch them in such a messy situation, in front of so many experts!

Actually, most of the immortal lords and ghostly immortals were targeting him!

He was already preparing to leave.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened.

The Prismatic Thunderball suddenly expanded, and all the lightning serpents scattered. They enveloped all of the immortal lords and ghostly immortals in the area!

This was the exact moment that Wu Yu and the other two were being rushed. It threw off everyone’s rhythm, and even Wu Yu himself was engulfed by the lightning serpents. There were more lightning serpents than expected, and the outward explosion snared up the whole Chakravarti-raja Star. It continued to expand, until it was a thunderball 10 times the size of the Chakravarti-raja Star!

There were dense lightning serpents everywhere. Although they were not that powerful, they obscured one’s vision. In such a situation, Wu Yu could leave with ease.

He wanted to snatch the Rainbow Pearls from the other two, but Wu Yu did not know where they were now. Given their abilities, they would definitely have made good their escape with this opportunity.

"Forget it. Even if I don’t go hunting them, they’ll come hunting me. Although there’s no way to be sure, but the three of them would definitely think that the three rainbow pearls would have to be combined to form a true 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King. That’s what anyone would think."

Therefore, Wu Yu was not worried that he would not be able to meet them. They would definitely come to find him. That would be his chance.

Although he felt a tinge of regret at being unable to get the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King in one shot, but Wu Yu knew that getting a third of it was good enough. Although there were still more than 19 years, but he was one of the three most likely candidates now.

The other two were Gu Huo Immortal Lord and Mo Yuji, to nobody’s surprise.

In the hubbub, Wu Yu leaped a few times out of the lightning serpents’ area. He was agog at its ability to expand until it was 10 times the size of Chakravarti-raja Star.

"As news of the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King spreads after this incident, many more ghostly immortals will definitely flock here. Perhaps even ghostly kings and eternal devil emperors? After all, the lure of a 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King is fairly considerable. Before, they might be aiming for Chakravarti-raja Star, but now they will definitely be looking for the three of us. I assume that Gu Huo Immortal Lord and Mo Yuji will all hide. They will probably be afraid that they can’t stay hidden!"

For safety reasons, Wu Yu changed identities for now. He was now an anonymous ghostly immortal.

After all, the ghostly immortals would definitely be chasing immortal lords. All of the immortal lords would be running for cover. This was still the home ground of the ghostly immortals, and the immortal lords would be unable to muster a numerical advantage as they did before.

As expected, while the lightning held sway, many of the immortal lords had chosen to flee first. They were not too united, and so the ghostly kings would definitely tear them apart.

Within this group, Gu Huo Immortal Lord and Mo Yuji would also be hard to find. After all, the space was just too big.

And so everyone chose to leave.

The lightning only faded completely three days later. The final explosion of lightning serpents did not destroy Chakravarti-raja Star. After they faded, the crumbling of Chakravarti-raja Star had basically stopped, except for the already opened fissures. Although the environment had become harsher, but it was still livable, and the spiritual qi considered dense.

Just in these three days alone, many of the ghostly immortals had received word and entered Astral Hell. The number of ghostly immortals at Astral Hell continued to swell, even if they had not reached this place yet.

Wu Yu ahd already heard that the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King had been divided into three, and taken by three different people.

Those three people were Mo Yuji, daughter of the Dhrtarastra, Gu Huo Immortal Lord, son of the Mighty Miracle God, and a no-namer and loner by the name of Qing Xuan Immortal Lord.

Right now, both immortal lords and ghostly immortals had already split up, looking for the three within Astral Hell. Even Chakravarti Ghostly King had left Chakravarti-raja Star, searching frantically using his familiarity with Chakravarti-raja Star.

It was said that Qing Xuan Immortal Lord was only an ordinary 9-realm immortal lord with not much power or background. He was assumed to have the weakest concealment powers amongst the three, and so had the greatest number of people hunting him.

But Qing Xuan Immortal Lord was long dead, and actually the hardest to search for.

"I have to find Gu Huo Immortal Lord and Mo Yuji, and defeat them." This was Wu Yu’s long-term goal.

"They wouldn’t just carelessly put those pearls somewhere, would they?" Wu Yu’s own pearl was in the Floating Dreams Pagoda. The pearl seemed afraid that it would be unremarkable, and blasted out its rainbow light with enthusiastic intensity. Put anywhere in the sky, it shone like the sun, even illuminating faraway places.

Therefore, forget about burying it somewhere - he did not even dare to take it out.

Wu Yu went in to study it, but nothing had changed. He could not communicate with it, and could not even analyze what material it was made of. After a few days, he was still floundering.

’Perhaps there will be a change after the other two are obtained."

He believed that that was the Jade Emperor’s design. It was an interesting notion. Only the superb 9-realm immortal lord geniuses could enter the Prismatic Thunderball, reach its depths, and take this. And so the three of them had obtained one each. Next, they would begin a long game of hide-and-seek, pitting their wills and strength against each other. Whoever managed to gather all three would be the ultimate winner. If the Great Void Immortal Path closed before they could be united, then clearly the three of them had no fate with the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King.

And the next time the Great Void Immortal Path opened, the rules of the game would probably be different.

"With the rainbow pearl in hand, I have a third of the opportunity. There’s no need to rush now. I can calm down a little." He came to Dreary Star, and settled down in a place where he could hear news from all over Astral Hell. No one disturbed him enjoying his freedom.

News was that Qing Xuan Immortal Lord, Gu Huo Immortal Lord, and Mo Yuji had all but disappeared, and the entire Astral Hell could not find them.

They were searching the whole of Dreary Star, and there were even drawings of the three, that would enable them to be immediately recognizable.

Because they were all immortals, Wu Yu’s transformation into a ghostly immortal dismissed him from suspicion immediately.

He was able to freely and quietly observe the situation develop. He guessed that the other two must be much more anxious, hiding out while trying to hunt him at the same time.

"They actually knew that Chakravarti Ghostly King has the Soul Jockey Technique. Tjere must be someone in the sky palaces instructing them. But when it comes to the 10th Grade Mark of an Immortal King, those people probably cannot take a personal hand."

That was Wu Yu’s guess.

But they could not help but take care during this time.

Both were difficult opponents to deal with, but Wu Yu had time.

Even more so, in the Floating Dreams Pagoda.

"If I could grow stronger, then I would stand a better chance."

He remained in the Floating Dreams Pagoda, cultivating alongside Full Moon of Nanshan and Ye Xixi. Even if everyone was searching together, it was still difficult to find one person.

He mainly focused on cultivating his Mystiques, especially Lawful Embodiment of Heaven and Earth and Somersault Cloud. Wu Yu hoped to find improvements in these two areas.

"Next, news of this will continue to spread further. I wonder how many ghostly lords and ghostly kings there will be a year from now? Would it be that all the experts of hell would be gathered here?"

Wu Yu did not dare to think about it.

The stir this had caused was just too big.
