Chapter 2089
In between the towering mountains and lofty ridges, three large rivers intersected and merged into one, continuing to surge towards the east. However, at the intersecting point, it formed a huge lake.
In the middle of the lake, there was an island that was about ten miles in size.
The island was covered in trees, and many houses were scattered about. Those who lived here were all cultivators that came to the island to look for the Dao stones. In the northern part of the island, there was a very good place called "Cloudsoar Valley". The fog within the valley roiled about, but after entering the valley, one could often find quite precious dao stones.
Because of this, the Immersed Cloud Valley attracted a lot of cultivators from the smaller sects nearby. Because of the Immersed Cloud Valley, this island was also called the Sinking Cloud Island.
Every day, there would be people coming from the Sunset Clouds Island. Thousands of people would be going there.
One evening, a beautiful woman in red arrived at the Sunset Island and found a building without a owner to live in. Her arrival didn\'t attract anyone\'s attention. After all, most of the cultivators that lived on the island weren\'t familiar with her before, so they naturally didn\'t care about the number of people on the island.
A few days later …
A few young men entered a nearby wooden building. As they inadvertently caught sight of the woman in red\'s face, they were immediately astounded. As a result, the activity of the woman in red began to be noticed by many cultivators on the island, especially the male cultivators.
Almost every morning, she would enter the valley once. However, every time, it seemed that she would leave empty-handed without any results. From the looks of it, besides being unlucky, her strength didn\'t seem to be that great.
The more powerful one was, the more time they would have to stay in the valley, and the more chance they would have to find precious dao stones. If one\'s strength was lacking, then they would lose their will to enter not long after. Then, they would be forcefully sent out by the power within the valley.
The woman in red had always entered the valley for a moment before coming out. It went without saying just what it meant.
Originally, everyone on the island felt that the woman in red was somewhat mysterious. This was because no one had been able to determine her true cultivation. Everyone thought that she was extremely strong, which was why she seemed so unfathomable. However, after knowing how she had performed in the Sunset Valley, everyone relaxed.
The woman in red must have used some sort of technique or weapon to conceal her cultivation.
After confirming this point, many of those who coveted the woman in red\'s beauty became restless. On the ninth night after that woman had arrived at Sinking Cloud Island, three men sneaked into her residence and didn\'t come out for the whole night. This made many people who had the same thoughts very upset.
If he had known earlier, he would have taken the first step and not let others take the lead.
However, on the morning of the next day, someone discovered that the three males were hung in a forest not far from the side of the wooden building. Their auras were all gone.
This caused everyone on the island to be incomparably shocked.
Those three were all seventh level heaven dukes, and yet they\'d been so silently killed. In the Upper Nine Heavens, experts were as numerous as the clouds. Let alone a Grade Seven Heaven Marquis, even a peak Grade Nine Heaven Marquis was nothing. However, in the Sinking Cloud Island, a Grade Seven Heaven Marquis was truly an expert.
However, the expert died so easily. No one on the island heard anything.
That woman should not be the Heavenly King, as the Heavenly King would never be able to come to such a small place. If that was the case, she could very possibly be a peak-tier Ninth Heaven Marquis, or even a Heavenly King … Only a cultivator of this level could easily kill three Tier 7 Heavenly Marquis.
After realizing this, those people who had evil intentions completely dispelled those thoughts.
The three companions of the level seven marquis didn\'t dare to say anything. After bravely putting their corpses down, they left the Sunset Island dejectedly. The cultivators who originally lived not far away all quietly moved their residences further away.
For a time, the area around the woman in red\'s residence was quiet.
"Tang Huan, how much longer before you refine that Mind Stigma?" Inside the wooden building, the woman in red sat cross-legged on the ground as she muttered to herself.
"About nine days? "Fine!"
As if she received a response, the red-clothed girl helplessly nodded.
The woman in red was Mo Hanyun, and the one who replied was naturally not Tang Huan but Jianxin.
Taking the chance that Dubhe City had released the seal, she entered Northern Dipper, but she was only able to control the divine boat to fly forward for a short while, before she kept it. Then, she brought the "Myriad Sword Heavenly Diagram" to such an inconspicuous place, and stayed there for a while, waiting for Tang Huan to finish refining the Mind Stigma.
He stood up and left the wooden building with the Ten Thousand Swords Heavenly Diagram in his hands. He then headed in the direction of the Sunset Valley.
The dao stones produced by the Chenyun Valley were rare treasures to the cultivators on this island. However, she, who came from the Phecda Core Sect and had seen countless rare treasures, was not the least bit interested in them. The reason why he went to the Sinking Cloud Valley was to follow the customs of the country.
Within the estate. Within Supreme Mystery Temple.
Tang Huan held onto the "Divine Moon Crystal", without moving, like a sculpture. However, an extremely terrifying aura continued to surge out from within the crystal soul, like a raging wave. Waves after waves, ripples that could be seen with the naked eye appeared in the surrounding space.
That Mind Stigma was truly worthy of being a powerhouse from the peak of the Upper Sky Emperor Realm. It was extremely stubborn, and the resistance it produced was also extremely tyrannical.
Tang Huan used the Cast God Crystal to cut off the mental connection between the brand and its master, and then activated the "Primal Chaos Dao Flame" to refine it.
This was also the reason why Tang Huan was only a lower Sky Emperor. If he was also a peak late stage Sky Emperor, refining that Mind Stigma was just a matter of time.
Days passed.
On Sinking Cloud Island, Mo Hanyun still went out once a day, went to the Sinking Cloud Valley, and then returned to her residence. On Sinking Cloud Island, Mo Hanyun still went out once a day, went to the Sinking Cloud Valley, and then went back to her residence.
Inside the cave, Tang Huan had already activated both the God Creation Divine Crystal and the Primal Chaos Dao Flame to the limit.
In the depths of the "Divine Moon Crystal Soul", the Mind Stigma that had been refined for dozens of days had already been weakened to the extreme. It could completely collapse and dissipate into nothingness at any time.
"I\'m finally going to succeed."
Tang Huan\'s face revealed a relaxed smile.
Suddenly, a "pah" sound was heard. It sounded like the bursting of a bubble. But right at this moment, Tang Huan\'s expression couldn\'t help but change slightly.
