  Chapter 1884 Mo Nian’s Singing

  Within the pillar of light, Yue Xiaoqian actually began to chant an ancient scripture. She had no control over the matter.

  As she chanted, her voice was like immortal music shaking people to their deepest core. Each of their minds quivered.

  At the same time, immortal runes began to appear in the air, echoing her voice. It was like a Grand Dao had descended. It bathed people’s souls, increasing their comprehension.

  “This is a precious scripture! Quick, try to comprehend as much as you can!”

  The experts present were delighted. Just hearing a few words had made them feel like their hearts had been purified. If they could comprehend any part of this scripture, it could benefit them endlessly.

  Long Chen looked at Yue Xiaoqian. She was in a strange state, unaware of what was happening outside. By chanting this scripture, she was essentially making a portion of it public knowledge.

  Long Chen and Mo Nian exchanged a glance. With a slight nod, Mo Nian immediately began a loud ruckus.

  “Fellow countrymen, young and old, during this special day, I will give you a grand display. Everyone, clap along. Shed your fetters and dance…”

  As he spoke, Mo Nian suddenly took out a string of bells, hanging it all over his body.

  These bells were actually a divine item he had obtained from a Corrupt expert. He had a total of eighteen bells.

  This divine item was used for bewildering other people’s minds and souls. Each shake would release an ear-piercing sound straight into a person’s soul.

  Mo Nian had used quite a bit of effort killing that Corrupt expert. Because these bells were too irritating, he had been unable to concentrate. He had ended up missing his first two shots before killing him with his third arrow.

  After obtaining them, Mo Nian hadn’t known what to do with them. But now he knew.

  Mo Nian began to dance, and it was less than impressive. He was like a spasming duck.

  The bells hanging off him released a sonorous sound that stabbed into people’s ears like needles. Their heads became dizzy.

  Mo Nian seemed uncontrollably excited and began to sing, “Beat the drums and strike the gongs! Let’s all be happy. Today is such a beautiful day, a perfect day for dancing and singing…”

  Mo Nian wasn’t a singer from the start. As soon as he opened his mouth, the rhythm and tune were so far off that they were in the Eastern Wasteland, but it seemed like he himself didn’t notice at all. He was immersed in the delight of performance.

  As he sang, he was accompanied by Long Chen’s special musical combination. He had an axe in his left hand and some claws in his right hand. He ground the claws against the axe, releasing a screeching sound. That sound was enough to make a person’s soul flee from their body.

  “Stop!”

  People howled as they covered their ears. Let alone trying to comprehend the scripture, they even felt like their heads would explode.

  “That’s right, everyone stand and dance! We’re all friends, so release your emotions! Scream and shout to your heart’s desire! The Heavenly Daos might be emotionless, but people aren’t! Jump and dance! Everybody, dance!” Mo Nian pointed at the infuriated experts, encouraging them.

  “Dance!”

  “Dance!”

  Mo Nian sang and danced while Long Chen accompanied him. Long Chen’s own body was quivering as he was almost unable to bear it. The sound of these claws dragging across the axe was not something an ordinary person could endure.

  However, seeing these people be so infuriated that their eyes were scarlet, Long Chen felt like everything was worth it.

  Their cooperation was practically a dance of devils, a wail of ghosts, and a howl of wolves. Other than Yue Xiaoqian within the light pillar who wasn’t affected, everyone else was going insane.

  “Fuck, I’ll go all-out!” Finally, someone lost their patience and charged at Long Chen. He wanted to snatch away the two divine items in his hands. The noise coming from them was enough to kill someone.

  After all, the rubbing of divine items contained its own divine power. Closing the senses was useless. That sound made people feel like there was a cat scratching the inside of their heads. It wasn’t exactly painful or itchy, but it was enough to make people want to die.

  Over ten experts charged over, wanting to put a stop to the two of them. However, as soon as they got close, they were forced back by a mysterious force.

  “Finally, the atmosphere’s getting better. Yes, just like this, dance and shout! Use your emotions to show the world your hot blood! Use your lives as a recollection of your lost innocence…” Mo Nian excitedly urged them on upon seeing them being blocked.

  Someone finally reached their limit and coughed up a mouthful of blood. These two were clearly trying to cause trouble, but there was nothing they could do.

  “Long Chen, do you not want to hear the immortal scripture?!”

  “No, it’s fine if we don’t hear it. It’s all good as long as you do. The two of us will make sure to create the right environment, while the rest of you comprehend the scripture. No need to thank us, just do your best. We do it voluntarily, so there’s no fee.” Long Chen paused for a moment to say this before continuing his accompaniment.

  “Bastards, I’ll kill you!”

  “You pieces of shit, if you don’t want to listen then fine, but how can you not let others listen?!”

  Furious roars rang out. That immortal scripture’s significance was extremely great, capable of changing their lives. However, this opportunity was being ruined by Long Chen and Mo Nian.

  The two of them completely ignored their rage, continuing to put on a performance that made them dizzy. They immersed themselves in the ‘immortal music’.

  “Long Chen, the fact that we could become brothers was truly fortuitous. We work so well together; I feel like our music is even on the same level as the Zither Fairy’s,” said Mo Nian proudly.

  “When it comes to technique, we’re still a bit inferior. But when it comes to pure innovation and originality, we’ve reached the peak. I feel like we’re definitely one level greater,” said Long Chen.

  “Fuck off, I can’t bear it any longer!”

  Finally, someone admitted defeat. He actually ran out of the palace. As soon as he was out, he began to vomit. His head was spinning, and he almost collapsed.

  Mo Nian and Long Chen’s performance could practically be called soul devouring devil music. People with weak Spiritual Strength were quickly reaching their limit.

  This wasn’t all just thanks to how amazing Long Chen and Mo Nian’s music was. It was also due to the power of the divine runes hanging in the air from Yue Xiaoqian’s scripture chanting. The power of those runes was surging into their minds to help them comprehend the scripture.

  Originally, the master of this world was very peaceful and didn’t like fighting. He wished to deliver this world from its suffering. The scripture being chanted right now was part of the inheritance he had given to Yue Xiaoqian. Yue Xiaoqian was in a meditative state and unaware that she was chanting the scripture to benefit everyone present.

  If the palace was peaceful, people would gain quite a bit from this opportunity. This was the good fortune the master of this place had left behind.

  However, this fortune had been ruined by Long Chen and Mo Nian. At the same time as it became easier to receive the immortal scripture, it also became easier to receive their ruckus.

  It was like a person wanted water to drink, and when they opened their mouths, a clear stream flowed in along with muddy water. There was no way for them to reject or isolate the sound coming from Long Chen and Mo Nian.

  Those with weak Spiritual Strength were about to flee. Even those with strong Spiritual Strength were dizzy, feeling like their heads would split open.

  More and more experts ran from the palace. As soon as they were out, they felt much more comfortable.

  “Bastards, I refuse to believe that they can hide
inside for a lifetime! Once they come out, I’ll definitely take my bite out of their flesh!”

  Outside the palace, the immortal scripture and the ruckus were blocked. The sounds only affected the people inside the palace. With each passing moment, more and more experts were forced to run out. Unable to comprehend the scripture, no one was willing to stay within and torment themselves.

  All who left were gloomy, flames about to spurt from their eyes. They looked at Long Chen and Mo Nian who were still performing, and furious veins bulged on their foreheads. They sat down, waiting for the two of them to come out.

  Di Feng, True Immortal Jiaoqi, and Gui Can were peak experts with powerful Spiritual Strength. However, even though they could resist the noise coming from the two of them, they were unable to calm down enough to comprehend the scripture.

  The three of them coldly glared at the two before also leaving. They didn’t say a word, but the killing intent in their eyes was starting to condense frost. If looks could kill, Long Chen and Mo Nian would have died a thousand times over.

  Seeing Di Feng, True Immortal Jiaoqi, and Gui Can all leave, the one thousand experts that were still bitterly enduring lost any motivation to hold on and also left.

  Long Chen’s axe and claws fell to the ground. Mo Nian also put away his bells. The world returned to calm.

  “In all my life, this is the first time feeling silence is such a blessing,” sighed Mo Nian.

  “Agreed.”

  Long Chen bitterly smiled. If it hadn’t been for those people’s furious gazes, he himself wouldn’t have been able to endure so long. This kind of work wasn’t for humans.

  Yue Xiaoqian’s voice was also fading. The runes in the palace began to dim.

  In the end, the light pillar also faded. The palace lost its original grand aura and rapidly decayed.

  “It seems… we’re about to have to work.” Mo Nian looked at the cracks slowly spreading across the walls. His lips curled.

  Suddenly, the ground caved in and the entire palace collapsed. A giant figure charged in with a halberd.

  “Long Chen, I’ll tear you to shreds!” roared True Immortal Jiaoqi.

  Chapter 1885 Qilin Power

  The inheritance had come to an end. Having lost its purpose, the palace collapsed, its divine marks crumbling. It was like millions of years of decay occurred in just a few seconds. True Immortal Jiaoqi charged through the collapsing palace, blowing it to bits.

  “Break’s over!”

  Long Chen slashed Evilmoon out. With his divine ring present behind him, he activated his Five Star Battle Armor and Green Dragon Battle Armor.

  BOOM!

  Evilmoon met True Immortal Jiaoqi’s halberd, following which a spear pierced toward Long Chen’s ribs. Di Feng had also charged in.

  However, his spear had just stabbed forward when a five-colored bow forced him back.

  “Di Feng, last time, my corpse poison let you be arrogant. This time, we’ll see who defeats who.”

  Mo Nian launched nine consecutive arrows. Arcing through the air, they came at him from different angles. Like nine bolts of lightning, they forced him back time and time again.

  “Hmph, then let’s have a show-down today!” Di Feng’s spear began to blaze with divine light as he activated its power. A gate to another world appeared within his manifestation. He was using a paragon art.

  “A paragon art? I have one as well. My Mo family’s inheritance is even greater than your Di family. When it comes to competing with paragon arts, you’re just a rookie.”

  Mo Nian’s Yuan Spirit lit up. The two figures within his manifestation separated, revealing a bow between them.

  It was a five-colored bow that looked identical to Mo Nian’s Five Element Sun Hunting Bow. However, this bow didn’t exist in this world.

  The Five Element Sun Hunting Bow blazed with light. Its divine power skyrocketed, and an arrow shot out with the power to destroy heaven and earth.

  “Hmph, if your Mo family was actually powerful, it wouldn’t have been destroyed. You’re just a stray dog.” Di Feng also unleashed his paragon art. His spear pierced forward.

  BOOM!

  The two attacks collided, filling the sky with blazing light.

  “Destroyed? Aren’t I still here? My Mo family will definitely rise once more. As for you? Di Feng, you’re just one stepping stone on my path of vengeance!” Mo Nian unleashed a barrage of attacks with his bow. He was wild and domineering without the slightest trace of the Western Wretch.

  “You talk big, but I’ll be the one killing you today!” Di Feng also unleashed waves of spear-images. They took the form of a lotus in full bloom, its petals slicing toward Mo Nian.

  “You’re the one talking big. Tell me, does your face hurt?” sneered Mo Nian.

  “Die!” Di Feng was instantly provoked. Long Chen’s slap in the face was his life’s greatest humiliation.

  Di Feng and Mo Nian began a wild clash. They had already fought three intense battles and were already familiar with each other’s moves. There was no need for them to use any testing blows.

  On the other side, Long Chen was also in an intense clash. Evilmoon was unleashing explosive power, while the seventy-two dragon teeth were like seventy-two experts attacking at the same time.

  The dragon teeth were incredibly sharp, and even a Xuan Beast’s body was unable to block them. True Immortal Jiaoqi had no choice but to be careful.

  Long Chen’s fight with True Immortal Jiaoqi had just started when a black light shot toward Long Chen’s back. Gui Can had joined in.

  Long Chen snorted and directed one of the dragon teeth to block it. However, just as the black light was about to strike the dragon tooth, it curved and flew by it before continuing toward Long Chen.

  Ten dragon teeth lined up a wall and smashed into the black light.

  BOOM! The black light splintered, transforming into countless figures. Those figures were actually thumb-sized beetles.

  They filled the sky, startling Long Chen. They were protected by something on their bodies that made it so the dragon teeth hadn’t killed them from the impact.

  Using the dragon teeth to block True Immortal Jiaoqi, Long Chen unleashed a barrage of attacks with Evilmoon, unleashing saber-images throughout the sky.

  Those beetles were blown apart upon contact with the saber-images. Only now did Long Chen notice a strange kind of rune on them that could weaken the impact of any attacks they received. It was no wonder the dragon teeth hadn’t killed them.

  BOOM!

  Suddenly, Long Chen’s saber quivered and the saber-images vanished. True Immortal Jiaoqi’s qilin halberd had managed to force its way through the dragon teeth to attack him.

  At this time, Long Chen noticed that the armored drake in True Immortal Jiaoqi’s manifestation had vanished, replaced by a giant qilin figure. Its roar shook the heavens, and True Immortal Jiaoqi’s power instantly erupted to an inconceivable level.

  Long Chen was knocked back a step. All of a sudden, a sharp pain came from his left shoulder. Startled, Long Chen looked to see a black beetle had actually reached him and was biting his shoulder.

  Even while covered in dragon scales, the black beetle was able to pierce his flesh with a mosquito’s needle-like mouth. Long Chen felt his shoulder go numb.

  Without hesitation, Long Chen sliced off a large piece of flesh from his shoulder, sending the beetle flying.

  Long Chen was startled by the black beetle. It was definitely troublesome. If he got bitten in his vitals, it would be even worse.

  “I’ll get rid of him first.” Long Chen ignored True Immortal Jiaoqi and charged toward the distant Gui Can.

  “Where do you think you’re going? I’m your opponent!” shouted True Immortal Jiaoqi. His halberd’s light intensified, and he sent it piercing at Long Chen.

  As for Gui Can, he sneered disdainfully. “Long Chen, you’re only at this level? You’ll be dying at my hands today-”

  Before he could finish speaking, brilliant
sword-light slashed down like a starry river.

  BOOM!

  Gui Can’s figure suddenly vanished. The sword missed, instead slicing a long ditch.

  A woman appeared in the air, a sword in her hand and the wind blowing back her hair. Like an immortal descending into the mortal world, Yue Xiaoqian had joined the fight.

  “Long Chen, you focus on True Immortal Jiaoqi. Leave this person to me.” Yue Xiaoqian sent a message to Long Chen.

  “Will you be alright?” asked Long Chen, a bit worried.

  “Although I’m only in control of the slightest bit of the Profound Spirit Dao Scripture, it’s enough to handle him.”

  The Devil character appeared on her forehead once more, and a sacred energy filled the air. At the same time, runes appeared all over, surging toward her.

  “Gui Can, your Gui family has targeted my original devil race three times. You’ve killed countless numbers of our people. Today, you’ll be repaying that blood debt.”

  With a simple slash of her sword, heaven and earth rumbled. All the Daos of this world echoed her power. Gui Can summoned countless black beetles, but they were all blown to bits.

  “This is the power of the Heavenly Daos! She’s actually in control of this place’s Heavenly Daos!” Gui Can’s expression changed. Waving his staff, he shot out a spiritual arrow. That black spiritual arrow carried with it a terrifying curse energy. The roaring of fiends could be heard coming from it.

  However, that curse power was shattered by Yue Xiaoqian’s sword. Her sword contained the will of the Heavenly Daos.

  She was now the heir of the Profound Spirit Dao Scripture and could control the power of this minor world. It was just a pity that she hadn’t fully comprehended it yet, or she would have been the new master of this space and could annihilate anyone.

  However, even though she could only control a portion of this world’s power, it put her at an immense advantage. That curse power was completely isolated by Heavenly Dao energy.

  “Ghost Kings Dominate the Starry Sky!”
