Chapter 581A – Emperor Zhou
Beneath the shadow of the mountain phantom bound in ice and flames.
Xu Jian’s eyes flashed. He calmly grabbed hold of Xu Wenze and fluttered backwards.
Beneath the fluttering black robes, dark red eyes swept outwards. The figure sneered repeatedly as he said, “Cangwu, if you don’t move now, those little things inside might escape.”
The evil hell spirit clenched his fists, anxiousness in his eyes. He didn’t hope that Qin Yu would be able to flee this land.
If that happened, then unless there was a great change in the world, he would never be able to achieve his revenge!
The decayed corpse furrowed his eyebrows before composing himself. After restoring himself to almost his original appearance, he regained an atmosphere of dignity and regality around him.
The angle of his eyebrows changed a little. Space seemed to calm down, as if it were suppressed.
Then, he lifted a hand and thrust forward!
Since he said that the two little children inside were his, then this had to be so.
No one could change this. The black-robed figure couldn’t and neither could they.
An invisible confinement appeared outside the mountain phantom. This was the protection of the world, making it so that what was inside was not damaged.
It was originally hiding, but now that the decayed corpse made his move, it had been activated.
What followed after shocked everyone present. This was because even though this was the protection of the world, it collapsed with a casual strike.
The strength of the decayed corpse surpassed all expectations!
Rumble rumble –
The terrifying ringing sounds were like the earth itself was breaking apart. Horrifying cracks appeared, like massive mouths that opened up wide, laughing at the heavens and earth.
The world had its own spirit; it would naturally hand down punishment.
In the skies above the decayed corpse, a blood red light appeared in the gray clouds. This blood red light began to rapidly spread outwards.
In a breath of time the entire sky had turned crimson, as if it had been soaked by an endless amount of blood. Looking up high, one could almost see the shadows of a trillion corpses.
When the world was angered, a trillion corpses would appear upon the ground, their blood streaming for a million miles!
The decayed corpse was expressionless. He simply didn’t even bother looking at the changes occurring above his head.
He lifted a hand and thrust out another palm. The originally collapsed world protection immediately disintegrated into nothing.
Bang –
A blood red bolt of thunder fell from the skies. The moment it descended, the skies were restored to normal.
This wasn’t an act with a strong beginning and a weak ending. Rather, this blood red bolt of thunder contained its complete strength.
By gathering up all of this strength, it would ensure a one-strike kill!
The black-robed figure emitted a strange cry and hurriedly drew back with the evil hell spirit in tow. With his current state of existence, he felt even more dread towards world retribution.
But, there was excitement in his dark red eyes. He had already anticipated that attacking the mountain phantom would trigger a backlash from the world, but he never expected it would reach such a degree!
The decayed corpse was strong, but he wasn’t in the condition he was in before his death. To the decayed corpse, this world tribulation possessed an additional bonus killing power. Even if he didn’t die he would surely be gravely wounded. At that time, the black-robed figure’s chance would arrive. If he could steal the decayed corpse’s mortal body, his strength would surely rise.
Then, in the oven down below, who could compete with him for that great good fortune?
This was simply wonderful!
But the black-robed figure’s excitement only continued for an extremely short period of time. When the blood red thunder was about to strike the decayed corpse, flames suddenly appeared…to be exact, calling these flames wasn’t appropriate. This was because this was a mass of pure, absolute strength, and it was only its shape that was similar to flames.
Facing the blood red thunder, the ‘flames’ separated like an opening mouth and swallowed it up.
Then…there was no then.
The ‘flames’ vanished from sight. Just like when they first appeared, everything was peaceful.
The black-robed figure stiffened. His dark red eyes stared stubbornly at the decayed corpse. It was only after a long time that he let out a deep breath of anger.
Damn it!
The decayed corpse had taken advantage of the loopholes. No wonder he had been so calm, without any worry at all.
The more he thought about it, the more it made sense. This oven of this world was about to open. How could it let the world from outside be so dissolute in its presence?
The decayed corpse was without expression. It was clear that everything was within his expectations. His palm continued to press forward and he grasped out.
The protection of the world had collapsed. Even if the blending of ice and fire was incomparably firm, it wasn’t anything to him.
Kacha –
Kacha –
Cracks began to appear in the mountain phantom. They spread out at an astonishing speed, soon reaching every inch and corner.
….
Cracks appeared on the nine furnaces as their strength erupted to the limit.
Suddenly, a very different aura broke through the shattered space.
Qin Yu’s heart stirred. He knew that a slit had been torn open in Ying Capital’s great array. He hesitated for a moment but quickly suppressed the thought.
Shen Yuanyin had already made her choice. As for what the results of that would be, that was up to her to bear!
He took a step forward and entered into the shattered space, about to leave the Sea of Purgatory.
Bang –
The surrounding barrier instantly shook and countless cracks appeared. A cold and cruel voice dove straight into his mind.
“You, if you leave, I will immediately kill her!”
….
Deep below the earth, countless boiling rivers converged from all directions.
They were crimson in color like flowing magma. Each one contained an extremely terrifying aura.
This was because these things that flowed like endless rivers were in essence the spirit veins buried deep below the earth.
In the world, wherever spiritual veins passed became a paradise for cultivators. They naturally gathered the strength of the heavens and earth and were greatly beneficial for cultivation.
But even so, even the most peak cultivating Holy Land had never experienced such an incredible scene before.
Looking all around, there were at least several hundred spirit veins and none of them were weak or small.
Each one was like an azure dragon winding through the wind, vigorously releasing their own formidable aura.
What was even more shocking was that these underground spirit veins had gathered together. They were like a sun, hanging deep underground!
The decayed corpse held his hands crossed behind his back. He stood on the mountain peak, calmly looking down at the great sun below, no joy or sorrow on his expression.
However, within his eyes, there was a faint trace of dazedness.
He had no idea why he caught these two little things and didn’t kill them afterwards. All sorts of things floated up and down in his mind, as if he had forgotten something extremely important. As if long, long ago, there was also such a woman by his side.
He was willing to live for her, he was willing to die for her, he was willing to abandon all for her…however, why did he forget her? What type of person was she?
His gaze became increasingly vacant. The decayed corpse subconsciously clenched his face. Space instantly condensed atop the mountain peak.
There was a coughing sound behind him that awakened him from his thoughts. He furrowed his eyebrows and slowly restrained his aura.
He looked up. The ‘great sun’ floating beneath the earth flashed in his eyes.
If he obtained this good fortune then he could reverse the yin and yang of life and death.
Perhaps at that time, he would know everything…remember everything he forgot…and who she was…
The decayed corpse turned and left.
Shen Yuanyin looked up towards the direction in which the decayed corpse left. Then, she looked at Qin Yu. She lightly said, “Why didn’t you leave?”
Qin Yu shook his head, “I didn’t have confidence I could.”
A slit had been torn open in Ying Capital’s great array. This was an extremely difficult task to begin with. If the channel suffered any impact from external forces, there was a high chance it would collapse.
This was a logical reason and it was even true…however, was there really no other reason?
Shen Yuanyin’s expression was still faint. But, there was an additional faintly complex look on her face. She looked at him earnestly once more and without saying another word, turned and walked back into the cave.
Qin Yu helplessly smiled. He mocked himself in his mind, because at this moment he discovered that he unexpectedly didn’t feel any regret at all.
If this wasn’t being obsessed, what was it?
He took a deep breath and suppressed his restless mood. Then, a firm look appeared on his face.
Perhaps disaster would strike soon. But since he hadn’t died yet, he had to do his best to continue living.
To be pushed to the precipice of death and survive from there…this world was always changing and there were no absolutes in life. Who knew if there wouldn’t be a favorable turn in the future?
