Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao-Chapter 241: Suo Hao Makes A Move
Chapter 241: Suo Hao Makes A Move
Anastasia looked at the stillness in front of her with a frown.
"All of the world's essence energy has been frozen by a higher power. According to my memories, only power that transcends the mortal can achieve such a feat."
"This means..." Anastasia widened her eyes as she concluded.
'An immortal cultivator?!' she thought in shock.
But what was even more shocking was that a girl who had never gone beyond the southern continent could recognize the origin of such powers.
Even she herself couldn't clearly explain the reason why as there are still a lot of confusion information in her mind these days which she decided to keep to herself for now.
Meanwhile, at this time two figures stood at a distance hidden from sight as they watched Lei Tian's action.
They both narrowed their eyes and thought to act at the same time but as they moved slightly they both sensed each others presence for a split second before hiding their aura's again.
'Hmm, someone else wanted to make a move?' Suo Hao wondered.
'But who is he?'
The other elderly man who called Arthur his young master thought the same too.
'Does young master have such an expert at his side? Since when was this?' he thought.
'Anyway, I have nothing to fear here. How about I go see who it is.'
*Swish*
Suo Hao sensed a silent fluctuation of space in front of him as a middle-aged man with sliver hair, yellow robes appeared in front of him.
But what stood out to Suo Hao was the rhombus-shaped black gem on the man's forehead.
"Are you still going to continue hiding?" The man smiled at Suo Hao's direction as he spoke.
Suo Hao thought for a moment and then revealed himself.
"Hmm?" The middle-aged man became surprised as he thought, 'A spirit body? Moreover it was created with just a wisp of a soul?'
He immediately understood what this meant. The person before him was probably a very powerful expert and one that should have once been at the peak of power in this universe.
After all, even though he was only a spirit body formed from just a wisp of soul he could tell that this figure was more than enough to take care of the descent of the immortals here.
Suo Hao noticed the subtle changes in the man's eyes and understood that he had been seen through. But he wasn't worried as his true power was not in his spirit body but in his mastery of runes.
"Are you with them?" Suo Hao calmly gestured at Lei Tian and the rest.
The man shook his head in response, "No. Rather I was about to take care of these ants. It was surprising that I wasn't the only one. So correct me if I am wrong, you are here because of him right?"
Suo Hao raised an eyebrow, "Him? If you're referring to Arthur then yes. But aren't you also the same?"
The man smiled as he thought, "It seems that his charisma is just as good too, hehe," he chuckled at the end and then his gaze changed swiftly.
"Although I don't know what your motive is, I will still give a warning..."
The gem on the man's forehead became brighter as a terrifying aura was released, one that Suo Hao immediately judged that it had the ability to eliminate this spirit body of his.
He instantly conjured a runic amour on his body for protection but that still didn't eliminate the threat he felt he wanted to continue but then he stopped as he noticed that he couldn't sensed any malice from the man in front of him.
The man noticed Suo Hao's actions and said, "You better not harm him and also, since you are here then there is no need to show myself just yet. But I would request that he doesn't know of our encounter."
*Swish!*
The man disappeared right after speaking without waiting for a response.
Suo Hao narrowed his eyes in thought as he couldn't even detect the faintest fluctuation of space as the man left.
'What hidden background does that fellow, Arthur have? Moreover, I can tell that from that fellow cultivators words that it is possible that Arthur is not aware or fully aware of his hidden background.'
Suo Hao gazed thoughtfully at the place where the man stood previously and then turned away to look at Lei Tian.
'This idiot! Doesn't he know that playing with the laws of a mortal realm like that can cause serious consequences.'
'For example... tampering with the array I set to protect my son as he awaits his future awakening,' Suo Hao's gaze became terrifying just as he thought of that.
Asides from helping Arthur out, the presence of these immortals will affect the overall situation of his son in hybernation.
Just then, a terrifying aura filled the atmosphere as Lei Tian was about to cast a technique that can be considered forbidden in a small world like the mortal emperor realm.
"I-!"
But just as he was about to speak, a cold voice interrupted him with a chant.
"Law Binding Seal: Ariktrus."
"What?!"
The entire space seemed to freeze including Lei Tian and the others as they froze in space , unable to move even with their abilities.
But although they could not move in this state, but due to the high level of their cultivation, they could still think.
"What's going on. Was there such a powerful figure in this small world?"
"Or did one of the elders on their side follow me here?" Lei Tian was dumbstruck.
Meanwhile, Guan Li who was also frozen heaved a sigh of relief at the situation as he knew what that power could have caused and how it would have affected the Princess.
But after mentally relaxing, he too was curious.
'Who was that?' Guan Li was extremely knowledgeable and experienced and he could te by the chant and the way the power took a hold of the surroundings that it was a sealing array.
This was because he himself had also dabbled in ancient arrays in the past too.
'But such an array with such powers. I have only heard of them but never seen them before. So who could it be?' he wondered.
'But one thing was for sure this person whoever he was, is a true expert!'

Meanwhile, back in the inner world of the Nine Heavens Palace, Arthur's conversation with Aixen continued, delving deeper into the implications of their recent discovery and speculation.
"If the Grand Dao truly rewrote the timeline before the end was meant to come," Aixen speculated, his tone laced with concern, "then it could have significant repercussions for you, Master."
Arthur furrowed his brows, pondering the gravity of Aixen's words.
The notion that the fabric of time itself had been altered sent shivers down his spine, raising questions about his own plans and purpose in this new timeline if it is true.
As they delved deeper into their discussion, Aixen's projection flickered slightly, a thoughtful expression appears on his face for a moment.
"Master," Aixen interrupted their conversation, "there are developments in the outside world that require your attention."
Arthur nodded, signaling for Aixen to continue.
"Suo Hao has taken action," Aixen began, relaying the events that transpired outside the hidden cave. "He cast a powerful sealing array, restraining Lei Tian and the others."
Arthur's eyes widened in surprise at the news. Suo Hao's intervention was unexpected but not unwelcome, as it bought them time to strategize and assess the situation.
"And there was another presence," Aixen continued, his projection flickering with intensity. "An elder with formidable power appeared alongside Suo Hao."
Arthur's mind raced with possibilities. The appearance of another powerful figure added another layer of complexity to the situation, raising questions about their motives and allegiance.
"Thank you, Aixen," Arthur said, his voice tinged with determination. "We'll discuss this further later. For now, I need to focus on the task at hand."
Outside, the atmosphere crackled with tension as Lei Tian and the others remained trapped within Suo Hao's sealing array. Arthur's mind buzzed with plans and contingencies, his every move calculated with precision.
At this time a movement brought him back to reality as he felt Eve's emotions.
In the serene tranquility of the unfamiliar landscape, Arthur and Eve found themselves enveloped in a tender embrace, their hearts beating in sync with the rhythm of the world around them.
Arthur thought of many things at this time and finally ask Aixen to do something for him as Aixen swiftly left to fulfill his master's wish.
