Chapter 528A – Moon Fall

Chapter 528A – Moon Fall

Those with a moon step talent all had the qualifications to try for a Sovereign rank Demon Body; the only difference was that between the different steps, the chances of assurance were higher or lower.

For instance, the quarter moon realm. It was like a willowy eyebrow, as thin as a hooked blade. Here, the chances of reaching the Sovereign rank didn’t surpass 20%.

But as this quarter moon in front of them grew more stable, it became like a bamboo shoot coming up from the ground, stretching its waist and growing increasingly thick.

After some effort, the thin crescent budded into a semi-circle. It was like a sword had slashed it in half; it was bright and dazzling to the eyes.

Half moon realm!

At this level, the chances of reaching the Sovereign realm were at least 30%.

30% was already astonishing. At this time, the eyes of all the Holy Palace Elders were swept up by this sight and their breathing became unsteady.

When a quarter moon became a half moon, although there was not an essential difference, this actually represented the potential of the moon step disciples increasing, even doubling over from before.

The Elders hadn’t held out for much hope during this examination, but now they all felt as if they had found a shining gold statue while sifting through sand.

If they could receive this moon step disciple as their own, then finding someone to inherit their legacy wouldn’t be a problem. In the future, there was even a chance that this person would further their orthodoxy, spreading out into the world.

This was already not just a simple disciple, but something that involved their future hopes. As long as they could obtain this person, then let alone tearing apart any pretense of face, it would be worth it even if they were beaten black and blue.

But the ruthless Holy Palace Elders weren’t even able to say any words before their eyes subconsciously widened and shock filled their faces.

They discovered that this wasn’t a gold statue they found in the sand, but a gold mountain that shook the heart!

The half moon began to brighten.

The three ranks within the moon step were: quarter moon, half moon, and full moon.

The full moon was the strongest within the moon step. Although there wasn’t a hundred percent chance of reaching a Sovereign level Demon Body, as long as there was no major accident, the chances were at least 70%.

And most importantly, those with a full moon rank talent had a faint chance of achieving the Emperor level Demon Body.

Even if the chances of this were 5% or even lower, as long as there was hope, this was enough to obtain immense attention and care from the Holy Palace.

Emperor level…in the current Holy Palace, perhaps only several old freaks that had been in life or death seclusion for many years already had reached this boundary.

Within the Demonic Path, while there weren’t many people that had accomplished a Sovereign level Demon Body, if one searched, they could at least find several dozen people. But, it had been many years since someone successfully reached the Emperor level.

If they could raise an Emperor level existence…just by thinking this, the three Holy Palace Elders began to shiver with excitement!

The half moon started to grow outwards. Faint traces of moonlight gushed out as it became increasingly clear.

The process wasn’t fast, but it gave off a stable feeling.

Around the crater, everyone was silent. Countless experts watched with wide eyes, a single thought emerging from all of their minds.

This person would succeed!

Then, the half moon truly reached perfection. It was like a giant disc, recklessly sprinkling down its own brilliance.

Although everyone was already prepared for this, when they truly witnessed this sight for themselves they couldn’t help but suck in a breath of cold air.

Full moon realm…this was the full moon realm…

It was said that amongst the descendants of the previous Holy Monarch, a genius had appeared and their Demon Body talent had just managed to reach this level. This person was regarded as the hope for their family’s resurgence and was highly valued by the Holy Palace.

If they didn’t see this sight with their own eyes, no one here would have believed that amongst these garbage new disciples there would actually be such a proud son of heaven.

As long as this person didn’t perish midway, this new disciple would be able to reach the Sovereign level, and perhaps even the Emperor level was within his reach.

His future would be limitless…from this beginning, he had already flung all his peers far behind.

People couldn’t help but feel envy. While some people felt jealous, they didn’t dare to make this too obvious. If they were to somehow provoke this person, wouldn’t that just be asking for trouble?

Everyone wanted to know: just who was this newly born future great person?

If the full moon realm couldn’t be considered a great person…hey, friend, how much sand is in that head of yours? Pour it out and get a new one!

Within the Demonic Path, there was a lurking restlessness that had been hiding all this time.

The source of this restlessness was the empty throne of the Holy Palace. This was because the master of the Holy Palace was not just the nominal leader of the Demonic Path, but also a necessary and unsurpassed existence of the Demonic Path. They were supposed to represent a peak combat strength that suppressed all sides.

On the surface, the current vacancy of the Holy Palace’s throne might seem as if it wasn’t a problem and the Demonic Path remained as stable as it always had been. But if a major accident were to occur, this was likely to produce a series of catastrophic chances.

Throughout the Demonic Path, there was an urgent hope for a new Holy Monarch to be born…of course, who the newly born Holy Monarch was and whose benefits they represented, this was a different question with a different set of factors. It was a dilemma that involved an incredibly risky battle.

It was exactly because of this when the Demon Envoy made some discoveries, he didn’t dare to reveal anything. He even needed to be cautious when contacting Qin Yu.

There wasn’t much to say here; there was only one point everyone needed to know and that was that in the entire Demonic Path, there was an incomparably high importance placed on one’s talent in the Demon Body. Subliminally, all Demonic Path cultivators would look up to people with outstanding Demon Body talents.

The Demonic Path cultivators present already felt sufficient shock, envy, and disbelief. But soon, they discovered that they could feel an even greater level of these emotions.

Because in that dark space, the only full moon there suddenly fell. Without the slightest indication, it happened inconceivably fast.

Countless people widened their eyes, their minds falling into confusion. They recalled something they heard about in the past and correlated it with what they saw in front of them.

The Holy Palace Elders inevitably had a stronger mindset. And with their status, they knew even more of the situation.

“Moon fall!”

The first one to open their mouth was the Holy Palace Elder who tried to play the sympathy card to receive Qin Yu as his disciple. He suddenly screamed, sounding like he lost his voice.

The two beside him might not have opened their mouths, but their twitching lips indicated just how excited they were at the moment.

When countless dumbfounded Demonic Path cultivators heard these words, it was like a bolt of thunder crashed down from the heavens and cleaved them in half. They suddenly remembered some incomplete information they heard related to the Demon Body in the past. One part was, “…stars condense, the moon grows, the moon falls, the sun rises…”

Now, the moon had fallen. Would the sun be able to smoothly rise? If this happened, didn’t this mean that after tens of thousands of years, the Demonic Path finally had a Holy Demon Son who possessed a sun step Demon Body talent!?

A Demon Son was an honored title given to those who cultivated the Demon Body and achieved mastery of it, reaching the Sovereign level. It represented the status of a direct descendant of the Demonic Path.

But the title of Holy Demon Son had nothing to do with one’s cultivation boundary; all it looked at was a person’s talent. As long as a person had a sun step talent, they would be given this title.

Its status…was far above that of a Demon Son. Theoretically speaking, it ranked ahead of Protectors and Elders.

Unfortunately, the number of times this title appeared was extremely small, so small that even within the ancient texts of the Demonic Path’s history, this title appeared on not too many occasions.

But without exception, all Holy Demon Sons became incomparably sparkling existences of their respective eras. Of course, not all of them would be able to smoothly grow, but as long as they didn’t die, there would be a space for them in the Land of Divinity and Demons.

Could they be witnessing the birth of a Holy Demon Son today?

The three Holy Palace Elders fell silent. This was because they discovered that after accomplishing moon fall, whether or not this new disciple could cause the sun to rise, his talent was already high enough to arouse the attention of the high level figures in the Demonic Path. This person was no longer someone any of them could receive as their disciple.

Everyone silently waited. The air seemed to freeze over and the watching cultivators even seemed as if they stopped breathing.

And within this tranquility that left everyone feeling constrained, in the skies of the Holy Land small world, a tenth sun quietly appeared.

To be precise, it wasn’t complete. It was only the outline of the sun, like the scene of a solar eclipse.
