CHAPTER 1183 THE PROFUNDITY CARVING SHIELD
While the alliance saw the barrage of attacks raining from the Myriad Armament Canopy Abode, Jing Wei was still fighting.
The Sky Precepts Ancestor had joined him by his side, and the two of them were teaming up against Master Bell Mountain.
"So you are that vile Jing Wei… I remember you. You tore through our lands and ravaged our cities." Master Bell Mountain spoke.
"That is correct. But I don't know you. Who even are you? I'm sure there was nothing like you back when we sieged the tribes." Jing Wei replied, not caring about the taunting tone in Master Bell Mountain's voice.
"Humph! Impudent." But master Bell Mountain didn't reply to him, only finding the man displeasing to his eyes. "A mere Dao Treading realm cultivator like you thinks you can stop me just because you have an immortal tool. You are dreaming." He added.
"Oh, that's where you are wrong. I don't just think… believe!" Jing Wei said as he slashed out the extremely long sword once more.
But much to everyone's surprise, the extremely long sword shrank!
The blade receded, and it turned into a normal sized sword. But this was only until Jing Wei was half way through his slash and pulling his hand back. When the sword was slashed out, the sword elongated once more, springing forth like a bamboo in the spring.
~SHING~
The sword tore through the air and touched the side of the temple on which the Ancestral Bell was hanging.
~CRACK~
~CRUMBLE~
The stone walls of the temple cracked and a few fragments fell off from it.
"You!" Master Bell Mountain was left enraged.
"So it really is a composite immortal tool. No wonder you all could hide it till now." Jing Wei understood.
When he had appeared, the first thing he had done was to assess the so called Ancestral Bell that the Immortal ascension realm Master Bell Mountain was using. And upon doing so, he learned a few things.
Such as the fact that while the immortal tool was called the Ancestral Bell, it was actually a whole temple. If it was like that, then they should have named it differently, like the Ancestral Temple or something.
But they didn't, which prompted Jing Wei to look deeper and discover that the energy signatures of the Bell and the temple it was attached to were actually different!
There was a clear discrepancy between them, which was only detectable by someone like Jing Wei, who was not just a spirit tool refiner but also an Immortal tool refiner. The Ancestral bell itself had a field around it that hid most of its fluctuations.
This prevented others from knowing how it operated exactly.
And after seeing how the Ancestral Bell could lock down a large area covertly and create a barrier that could block even Immortal Ascension realm experts, Jing Wei had understood its functionality.
He understood that the actual Immortal Tool was simply the Bell that hung on the temple, while the temple was a separate tool. The temple itself was a pseudo Immortal tool and was seemingly the second component.
Jing Wei already had the perfect example to compare it with: War Castle Jing.
And if he could use the same understanding he had about War Castle Jing, Jing Wei was sure that the Ancestral bell had a lot more to it than could be perceived.
Jing Wei and Master Bell Mountain clashed several times while the Sky Precepts Ancestor supported him.
Unlike the other two ancestors of the top sects, the Sky Precepts ancestor wasn't actually someone that specialized in offense. Rather, most of his skills were centered around support and defense.
"Profundity Carving Shield, Deploy!" The Sky Precepts Ancestor chanted and threw out a small metal shield that was barely the size of a palm.
"Profundity Carving Shield, Deploy!"
"Profundity Carving Shield, Deploy"
Surprisingly when he did that, he wasn't alone. All the elders of the Sky Precepts sect, including the patriarch, threw out a similar palm sized metal shield.
The people of the alliance and the enemies were a little confused upon seeing this, but were still alert.
~SHUA~ SHUA~ SHUA~
The multiple palm sized shields all arranged into a pattern in the sky, before glowingly brightly.
~HUALA~
Jing Wei glanced at the large array that was forming in the air and was intrigued.
"Your sect actually managed to finish the first form of the Profundity Carving Shield?" Jing Wei asked with interest, while continuing to fight against Master Bell Mountain.
His opponent was a irked seeing how Jing Wei could be this causal in a fight. But he had to admit that the power of the sword in his hand was really dangerous. The Ancestral Bell kept on informing him about the damage it was sustaining.
"We actually finished it a decade ago." The Sky Precepts Ancestor said while controlling the shield with his gestures.All content is property © .
The many palm shields suddenly released strings of light that interconnected with each other, forming a net that soon solidified. A few seconds later a massive shield had condensed in the air.
It had several facets and had eighteen sides!
"GO!" The Sky Precepts Ancestor thrust his hand forward and the Profundity Carving Shield followed his command.
~DENG~
The shield and bell collided, creating a harsh screech that forced the weaker experts to block their ears.
It was simply too loud and created ripples in the air. The snow and rubble in the area around it was blasted away from the impact as well.
"It really is something worthy of being left behind by an immortal." Jing Wei muttered.
He actually knew about the Profundity Carving Shield and its origin. This was something that the Immortal from the Sky Precepts Sect had left behind when he had descended in the past.
The Sky Precepts Sect had been working to make it ever since then.
'If its this good when it's only partially made, then how strong would it be in its true state?' Jing Wei wonders, knowing that the shield in front of him was not it complete form.
