With the Nine-Headed Bug’s attack and the Thousand Scales Leaping the Dragon Gate exploded, the devilish domain that enveloped the surrounding universe was shredded apart. As a result, the spark could easily traverse through the void and enter the universe they were in.
The Demon and Devil were struck with an uneasy feeling and attempted to block the spark in its tracks.
However, Feng Yunsheng was a step quicker. As she temporarily prevented the advancement of the Nine-Headed Great Sage and the Devil Lord, the spark had already flown across.
“… Is that the half-dragon that accompanies Suo Mingzhang?” Dragon King Huanchen’s brows moved, “He even brought someone else along?”
He attempted to step forward, yet what welcomed him was Yan Di’s saber that forced him into retreat.
Both Demons and Infernal Devils were oblivious of what this was about.
The one that came was the Mars Halberd.
As a Leakless Level Immortal Artifact, he was someone on par with a human True Immortal expert. While his strength wasn’t weak, he didn’t seem capable of affecting the grand scheme of things. After all, not every True Immortal was like Yan Zhaoge.
Yet, precisely due to this, the Mars Halberd’s appearance seemed queerly abnormal.
To prevent the Daoism martial art practitioners from having any other tricks up their sleeves, the Demons and Devil had already prepared to hinder the Mars Halberd, even if they weren’t certain what changes it would cause.
It wasn’t difficult to prevent Mars Halberd’s advancement.
A Demon Race Small Saint’s sonorous voice of the great dao was sufficient in hindering the Mars Halberd’s movements from afar.
However, Feng Yunsheng, Gao Qingxuan, and the others were a step quicker. They nullified their opponents’ sonorous voice of the great dao, and worked together to escort the Mars Halberd.
Such behavior affirmed the guesses of their foes.
The situation that calmed down a little after Chen Xuanzong and the Ice Devil had perished together immediately became tense once again.
The battle between the two sides became even more intense.
Meanwhile, the Mars Halberd flew straight towards where the Chaotic Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual was located at.
As embers pranced about, a silhouette appeared from the sea of fire and immediately entered the light sphere formed from the ritual.
Chu Lili looked at the silhouette. After making out the appearance, her heart was filled with complex emotions.
“Senior apprentice-sister…”
The woman in white who entered the Chaotic Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual was Chen Xuanzong’s first disciple, and Chu Lili’s senior apprentice-sister – the Female Emperor Jie Mingkong!
Chu Lili hadn’t seen her for a millennium.
She had pictured how her reunion would be with Jie Mingkong countless times. Yet, she never imagined it to be under such a situation.
“During the past few years, Senior Jie had been searching for you, Senior Chu.” Yan Zhaoge said, “After you fell into the hands of the Nine Underworlds, I’ve been worried that Senior Jie would suffer from the same fate and become the hostage threatening the Astro Sovereign and us.”
Yet, while there was indeed a hostage, it wasn’t Jie Mingkong. Instead, it was the Roving Jade Heavens’ Vine Sovereign.
Yan Zhaoge went along with the situation and still executed his plan to save the hostage.
However, at the same time, a question surfaced within his mind.
If the Nine Underworlds Infernal Devils didn’t capture Jie Mingkong, where is she now?
The void’s boundless outskirts were far too vast. Without any clues, finding someone would be like finding a needle in a haystack.
Yet, Jie Mingkong had been attempting to locate Chu Lili previously.
Chen Xuanzong and Gao Han had previously sensed her traces.
This implied that Jie Mingkong had always been concerned about the matters regarding Chu Lili and the Nine Underworlds.
The battle happening by the Domain of Thousand Scales, as well as the all-encompassing devilish domain created by the Grand Heavenly Level Devil Lord, had caused an enormous commotion. It could very possibly alert Jie Mingkong and attract her to the surrounding area.
After casting the Thousand Scales Leaping the Dragon Gate, Yan Zhaoge used the opportunity to deliver a message. He requested Mars Halberd, the Brocade Emperor – Fu Yunchi, and the others to locate Jie Mingkong’s whereabouts.
At that time, it was merely to prevent Jie Mingkong from being captured by the Infernal Devils, which would ultimately cause more changes to the situation.
But, now, it was time to save a life!
“The Astro Sovereign quoted ‘As a man sows, so he shall reap.’ There’s no need to mention why he’s in such a condition anymore. What’s important is how we should act now.” Yan Zhaoge quickly introduced the current situation to Jie Mingkong, “Fortunately, the Astro Sovereign already have two successors who had already ascended to the Immortal Realm.”
“This might be a chance to survive for him.”
The karma contained within was far too complicated.
Yan Zhaoge looked at the two, “Only… you two would have to bear the risk together with the Astro Sovereign. I can’t guarantee if you’ll still have a future.”
“These matters happened because of me, because of my father. My master shouldn’t be the one bearing the consequences.” Chu Lili smiled faintly.
She forced a smile on her expression filled with loneliness, “I managed to meet master once again, and I don’t even have to hear the answer from him personally. God is truly treating me well.”
Chu Lili looked towards Jie Mingkong, while the latter was doing the same.
Her lips moved, and she wanted to say something. Yet, only a sigh came out. Chu Lili then walked towards the left side of Chen Xuanzong and sat in a lotus position.
She followed Yan Zhaoge’s guidance and drew a rune by her palm. Then, she pressed it on Chen Xuanzong’s left shoulder.
In that instant, ice shards spread from Chen Xuanzong’s shoulder to Chu Lili’s arm, which then proceeded to cover her entire body.
Chen Xuanzong’s silhouette that was gradually vanishing by the ice was about to turn into a statue thoroughly.
Then, his silhouette finally stopped vanishing.
Chen Xuanzong opened his eyes and turned to look at Chu Lili.
No voice escaped from his mouth. However, from his mouth’s movement, he was letting out a sigh, “Doofus…”
Chu Lili smiled, and she transformed into an ice statue as well.
Within the layer of ice, she shut her eyes and entered a deep slumber.
Jie Mingkong watched Chu Lili’s actions with an expressionless face.
Only, deep within her eyes, countless waves of emotions were undulating within.
Without any more hesitation, she walked towards Chen Xuanzong’s right-hand side.
Then, she looked into his gaze.
Within the layer of ice, the man’s expression was so blurry. One couldn’t even tell what expression he made anymore. Yet, upon coming in contact with Chen Xuanzong’s gaze, Jie Mingkong’s entire body vibrated uncontrollably.
Initially, she wanted to place her hand on Chen Xuanzong’s right shoulder. Yet, the desire to touch Chen Xuanzong’s face made her lift her hand.
As her hand lifted halfway, she suddenly remembered what happened by the land of tranquil streams in the past. Her hand stopped, with hints of guilt and panic filling her expression.
Within the surface of the ice, Chen Xuanzong calmly looked at her and started speaking.
While no sounds escaped, Jie Mingkong understood his words by his lip’s movement. In that instant, tears filled her entire face.
She started laughing and crying without stopping.
The Female Emperor, someone who had been as cold as a glacier, seemed to have returned to who she was a millennial ago.
All the
emotions that had been accumulating for a millennial exploded in that instant, with her self-control and any sense of reasoning ceasing to exist any longer.
Chen Xuanzong’s expression remained gentle.
“
Oh
, Xuanzong…” Jie Mingkong whispered and stopped her crying. Then, her gentleness filled her expression, and she stopped trying to touch Chen Xuanzong’s face. Instead, she only placed it on Chen Xuanzong’s shoulder.
In that instant, layers of frost expanded through her palm.
Then, the Female Emperor – Jie Mingkong, turned into an ice statue.
Chu Lili and her were located on each side of Chen Xuanzong.
The frigid ice froze the grudges that had lasted for more than a millennium.
Peacefully and quietly.
History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1436 - Reversal of the Heart Devil, Lashing the Group of Demons!
Chen Xuanzong, Jie Mingkong, and Chu Lili sat together motionlessly side-by-side.
Jie Mingkong and Chu Lili’s palms were placed on each side of Chen Xuanzong’s shoulders.
Their bodies became frozen together within the layer of ice, forming a huge ice statue.
The three of them had their eyes closed within the frigid glacier as if they were in deep slumber.
The ice-blue devilish radiance by Chen Xuanzong’s chest turned dim, yet it was sparkling intensely.
As if it was hanging by a thread, struggling to survive.
However, in the end, everything returned to silence, and the devilish intent dissipated completely.
Yan Zhaoge heard a voice filled with ice-cold despair and furious unwillingness that was gradually fading away.
It departed from this world and disappeared into another plane of existence.
One of the Twelve Devilish Gods, the Six Extinct Devils’ Water Devil, perished once again!
Having successfully taken the last step, he was going to be reincarnated already. Yet, he was forcefully pushed back into oblivion.
With this, Yan Zhaoge could finally let out a sigh of relief.
He looked towards the three and solemnly bowed, “The three of you had worked hard.”
Yan Zhaoge extended his hand, and radiances appeared by his palm. He carefully enveloped the ice statue and kept it within his pocket.
Fortunately, they located Jie Mingkong in time, and Chu Lili didn’t cause any uproar. Otherwise, Chen Xuanzong might have gone past the point of saving.
Only, due to the Anti-Devil Countering Rune and the Water Devil, Chen Xuanzong’s life was still hanging by a thread.
Whether he would awake from his slumber and break out of the ice was still an uncertainty.
This was different from when he sealed himself alone within the land of tranquil streams.
At that time, he did it on his own. This time, circumstances forced him into such a state.
This could very possibly last forever.
Currently, Jie Mingkong and Chu Lili were in the same situation as him. Either both of them come out gloriously, or they might be sealed forever.
Fortunately, with the disappearance of the devilish mark, Chen Xuanzong and Chu Lili wouldn’t have to worry about the Water Devil’s pestering any longer.
As long as no other Devils engrave a new devilish mark within them.
Being sealed by ice, they eliminated the possibility of the Water Devil communicating with them and alluring them to his side.
While the two compatible reincarnation physiques still existed within the world, the Water Devil could do nothing but watch.
“Those of goodwill will be returned with good favor…” Yan Zhaoge felt the chilliness in his palm.
Then, he raised his head and looked towards the void beyond the Chaotic Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual with an eerie gaze.
Outside, it was the Demon Race that was initially attacking fanatically.
However, after seeing Chen Xuanzong cast the Anti-Devil Countering Rune, the group of Demons slowed down their attacks.
They could feel that the lofty Water Devil’s ice-cold devilish qi was diminishing very quickly.
The Great Devil was welcoming perishment.
The Devil Lord, who was initially blocking the Nine-Headed Bug and Feng Yunsheng, became furious and started closing in on the Chaotic Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual.
After seeing Jie Mingkong entering the light sphere, a thought flashed through the Grand Heavenly Level Devil Lord’s mind, causing him even more uneasiness.
The instant Jie Mingkong came out, he could already tell who she was.
“Chen Xuanzong’s senior disciple… Jie Mingkong…”
Someone of the True Immortal Realm was of no importance to him. However, as a Grand Heavenly Level Nine Underworlds expert, he had many information within his grasp. Naturally, he was aware of the relationship between Jie Mingkong and Chen Xuanzong.
Previously, they attempted to capture Jie Mingkong to disrupt Chen Xuanzong. Only, their efforts were to no avail.
Seeing the appearance of Jie Mingkong, while he wasn’t sure of what changes she would bring, the Great Devil still felt that something was off.
Then, he started fanatically rushing towards the Chaotic Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual.
Feng Yunsheng remained expressionless, while the devilish blue-black flames within her eyes beamed vigorously, causing a dark twin brilliance to manifest atop her head.
At that very moment, the brutal yet sinister Encompassing Abyssal Absolute Annihilation improved once again, which made even the Grand Heavenly Realm expert to be filled with the sense of threat.
The Doomsday Heavenly Devil’s authority possessed by her had never been complete.
However, at this very moment, she seemed like she was close to completion.
The Nine-Headed Bug and the Devil Lord were startled.
In front of them, a volcano was already on the verge of erupting.
The Origin Heavenly Tribulation was right in front of Feng Yunsheng right now!
If she took the step forward, she would ascend to the Grand Heavenly Realm!
However, the intent of solitariness and perishment behind her would reach a brand new level.
The Devil Lord hesitated upon seeing this.
He was weighing whether forcing Feng Yunsheng into a breakthrough and ascending into the Grand Heavenly Realm was much beneficial to the Nine Underworlds or the Water Devil’s revival.
Only, the instant Feng Yunsheng breaks through, he could possibly be the first one to die under that Doomsday Saber.
Under such an attack, even if he were of the Grand Heavenly Realm, he would thoroughly perish without any hopes of revival.
On the contrary, as the Water Devil slowed down his flurry of attacks, the Nine-Headed Bug attacked once again without any hesitation.
Upon receiving his signal, other Demon Race experts started their attacks once again.
This time, their aim wasn’t Chen Xuanzong or Chu Lili anymore, but the Pill Hall’s owner – Yan Zhaoge!
The Nine-Headed Great Sage lifted his Crescent Moon Shovel and struck it towards Feng Yunsheng.
Feng Yunsheng parried it with her saber, causing her body to be pushed backward.
However, the ferocious black qi wreathing by the Crescent Moon Shovel remained for a long time, causing discomfort to the Nine-Headed Great Sage’s Demonic energy.
Seeing this, the Devil Lord lunged forward once again, attempting to besiege Feng Yunsheng together with the Nine-Headed Great Sage.
He also changed his target.
Since the Water Devil’s perishing had been fated, he decided to bring Feng Yunsheng back to the Nine Underworlds.
The two decided to make Feng Yunsheng their enemy.
Feng Yunsheng was now in great danger.
The devilish flames within her eyes became much more vigorous and sinister.
At that very moment, a myriad of runes appeared in front of Yan Zhaoge, which hung in the air by his surroundings.
/> “Break!”
The Water Devil had already perished, and there was no more need to continue the Chaotic Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual. Without any more worries, he punched forward, destroying all the runes.
The streams of lights shattered and started spreading towards the surroundings. All the runes in the air turned into scattered radiances.
Just like a tight bow, which finally couldn’t stand any more pressure, the eighty-one light circles that had been circulating continuously started falling apart!
All the light circles broke apart, turning into eighty-one streams of lights, and flew towards the faraway sky.
The ferocious momentum resembled eighty-one thick and robust light whips, which started whipping in all directions!
The Chaotic Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual followed after the Domain of Thousand Scales and ultimately crumbled!
At the final moment, Yan Zhaoge maintained his control over the ritual.
The light whips, like trails of stars, started whipping towards all the Demon Race experts present, as well as the Devil Lord.
Dragon King Huanchen was lashed by the whip, but he remained unharmed.
However, a queer image surfaced within his mind.
It was the battle that happened when the dao universe’s Roving Jade Heavens was being moved into the Pill Hall. The scene where his claws were slashed apart by Gao Qingxuan flashed across his eyes.
The Jade Rabbit Demon was lashed and got wounded by it.
However, her former master’s image- the Extreme Star Lord appeared in front of her eyes.
The Old White Deer was lashed as well. As he blinked, the Longevity God appeared!
History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1437 - Yin Yang Reversal Distortion Awl
The Chaotic Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual had the effects of suppressing and slaying Devils. It was incredibly proficient in resisting the Heart Devil’s interruption and suppressing one’s inner demons.
The Primordial Heart Devil was the very first devilish intent that existed among living beings. Being coined as one of the Six Extinct Devils, he had lived since the dawn of time and would continue existing for eternity.
If his main body descended upon this realm, even the Chaotic Heavenly Devil Slaying Ritual would be powerless against him.
