Spirit Vessel - Chapter 578

Chapter 578: 578



The imperial chambers were deeper in the city, serving the emperor and his harem . No one could enter without an official summon .

Heavenbattler, the leader of the marquises, nearly got flayed as a punishment for rushing into the harem .

Feiyun felt a strange, austere atmosphere after reaching this place, seemingly hiding a trace of bloodthirst .

The gates towering at several dozen meters were wide open . These armored guards stood in front, their armor plates covered everything about them, including their eyes and mouth . These were four monsters of steel .

This was the heaviest metal on the world - Black Tortoise . Moreover, they were empowered by battle talismans . Once activated, these armors would be unbreakable, capable of withstanding the strongest attacks .

“Stop, this is a forbidden area . No trespassing . ” One of them with a great spear shouted . The voice carried an imposing aura from within the armor .

Though their eyes were blocked, their divine intents could sense even a fly .

Feiyun has been here before and was familiar with the forbidden guards . The aura of these four wasn’t the common draconic one; it carried a chilling sensation instead . They clearly weren’t the original ones .

He sniffed the air and could sense a faint hint of blood . There were marks of a battle on the ground too . A formation master has tried to conceal it but this was useless against the phoenix gaze .

There was indeed a problem!

A hawk-faced eunuch saw this and ran deeper inside the harem .



Feiyun shouted: “How impudent! Do you not see that I am the Divine King?!”

“My apology, Your Excellency . Please show the King’s Order or I’m afraid I can’t let you through . ” The guard discretely gathered energy on his spear .

Feiyun obviously didn’t have the order since it was inside the palace right now . Plus, given the current situation, he wouldn’t be able to enter even with the order .

Shenya clearly had entered the harem . If he were to take the letter from Consort Luo, he could change the content then publicly announce it to become the next emperor . At that point, Feiyun and Princess Luofu’s actions would be considered rebelling .

Who knows how long he has been in there for? He could already have the letter .

It was too late to call for backup so Feiyun needed to go by himself .

“Fine, I’ll show it to you . ” Feiyun reached in his pocket with a friendly smile .

The guard hesitated, clearly aware that he didn’t have the order and wanted to attack . He gathered power with both hands while his talismans lit up .

He began walking towards Feiyun; the other three realized this and started to glow with energy, ready to fight at any moment .

They were loyal soldiers of the Beiming; powerful and keen enough to smell the danger .

“Whoosh!” When the first guard got within three steps, Feiyun finally revealed his hand to shoot out a destructive white ray . The guard also thrust his spear at the same time .




Knowing that Feiyun wanted to kill him was one thing, but being fast enough was another .

Feiyun had lightning-fast speed and went all out . His weapon essence cut through the spear like butter then penetrated the Black Tortoise armor and the guard’s heart . He then flipped his saber and severed the guy in two halves .

Blood shot out like a beautiful flower .

“Clank! Clank!” The two halves of the spear fell down, one pinned on the ground with a still-moving blue glow .

Feiyun boldly walked forward with his weapon essence; his golden robe stained with blood: “I will not show mercy . ”

The three guards lined up, ready to fight . They were all top experts . If it wasn’t for his speed and the sharpness of the essence, Feiyun couldn’t have killed one of them so easily .

“Feng Feiyun, you’re too late . The crown prince had entered for a long time, he probably has the entire place under control now . ” One of them said .

“Fool . ” Feiyun raised his saber and unleashed a dragon-like slash engulfing over the three .

“Feiyun, we are virtually half-steps, you think you alone can beat us?” Another raised hand while a gluttonous demon appeared behind his back . It was more than ten meters tall with long hair and sharp fangs .

When he unleashed a claw strike, the demon behind him also used the same motion against Feiyun .

Feiyun stood up straight and punched the guy’s hand . Next came the sounds of broken bones and the scream of the gluttonous demon .

This guard’s arms broke into five sections . The 900-year beast soul behind him was wounded as well .

“Boom!” Feiyun created a massive image of a golden palm and then pushed it downward like a Buddha . The winds howled as this insane pressure pressed down on the wounded guard’s head, pushing the entire thing down his body .

The guard eventually dropped to the ground . What was left was a palm indentation on the ground, more than ten meters wide, and a messy man-shaped puddle of flesh .

The second guard had fallen .

These were loyal combatants of the Beiming who didn’t fear death . They also participated in the attack on the Divine King’s mansion and killed many maids and servants . Thus, Feiyun didn’t hold back against them at all .

“Die!” He turned the weapon essence into a thousand tiny swords and turned the third guard into a sieve . Blood oozed out of the little holes .

He got up next to him and unleashed a palm strike, causing the corpse to explode into several pieces .

He didn’t slow down at all and continued to head deeper into the harem .

The fourth one continued to attack, undeterred by the death of his comrades . He thought that his death would be worthwhile if he could slow Feiyun down by a mere second .

These trained loyalists only cared for their master and were ready to die at any moment .

Feiyun paused and released 9,998 beast souls . This ocean of beasts slammed into the guard .

Only a skeleton was left behind . Even pieces of the Black Tortoise armor were eaten by a few strange beasts that enjoy devouring metals .

“Boom!” They returned to Feiyun’s body and issued a loud blast with blinding lights . His bloodlust was at an all-time high .

He didn’t care at all since this was a key moment . Infiltrating the harem was just fine .

This place was massive with numerous palaces . First-time visitors would certainly be lost, but this wasn’t his first time here .

He soared with great speed on the wide street paved with jade pebbles towards the center where the four consorts were located .

Along the way were marks of war . It looked like Long Shenya planned to take over with force . Perhaps Beiming Moshou left to mobilize his troops outside the capital in order to aid the coronation .

Feiyun didn’t have a good feeling about this . Everyone was preoccupied with the groom competition while the Beiming had started their plans for the throne .

“A bloody battle is about to begin . ” His eyes flashed brightly as he increased his speed . At the same time, he threw out thirteen jade talismans . These messages pierced through the sky like meteors towards different locations in the capital .

Among them were the seven secret guards of the Divine King’s faction, the three marquises outside the capital, Princess Luofu…

After receiving his message, they all began to act .
