Chapter 14: One Single Sword Chills the World! (3)
Everyone was under great pressure.
“Saintees, why haven’t they started fighting yet?”
At this moment, a disciple of Yaochi Holy Mountain spoke out.
“Don’t call me Saintess. I’m not the Saintess anymore,” Ying Shi shook her head. “You don’t understand—they have already been fighting it out!”
“?”
“They are fighting with their imposing manner!” Ying Shi explained.
Strong cultivators can even revive with a drop of their blood. You can’t defeat them by simply destroying their bodies. Instead, they need to use their “imposing manner” to destroy the other party’s mind.
“White Emperor Bai Lian is fiercely battling the sea monster in a way unseen by us. Once either side gains an advantage, the other will face a relentless onslaught!”
“I see.”
The questioning disciple raised his head.
Is this the so-called invisible battle?
Just by imagining it, he was stunned by the terrifying scene.
Faced with Bai Lian’s Star and Moon Painting Scroll, the sea monster almost turned to leave. In the end, it restrained itself, as it had no confidence in escaping from Bai Lian’s grasp.
Rage boiled in its heart. Why hadn’t the merpeople begun to act?
It didn’t have much time left.
Are you waiting to die?
The sea monster glared at Xia Qingqing with intense hatred. Perhaps it needed to take a risk and kill the woman Bai Lian cared about.
Doing so might expose a huge vulnerability in Bai Lian, but it might also lead to its own death.
Sacrifice itself for the sake of the merpeople?
Never!
Then, use more power!
The sea monster mobilized all its spirit Qi.
Boom!
It became the center of a raging storm.
Under the splendor of black and dark blue light, it looked as terrifying as a demon of the apocalypse.
The sea monster had never felt so determined.
Every muscle in its body danced. Its soul trembled.
It gathered all its courage and finally shouted from the depths of its heart:
[Bai Lian, show me your weaknesses, please!]
“…!”
Bai Lian caught the sea monster’s gaze.
Was it watching Xia Qingqing?
She suddenly understood. The reason the sea monster hadn’t taken action was that it was afraid of Xia Qingqing!
Although Xia Qingqing was inexperienced now, she was the Green Emperor who ended the dark turmoil, after all.
Bai Lian felt a surge of warmth wrap tightly around her.
A warm current surged chaotically within her, threatening to spill out at any moment.
Under this influence, she briefly forgot the pain in her body.
She was protecting Xia Qingqing, and Xia Qingqing was protecting her.
Emotions are never a one-person affair; they are something both parties nurture together.
Bai Lian wanted to pick her nose but restrained herself.
She was still at the table, unable to leave without throwing all her chips.
[Wait for me to come back!]
After whispering this to herself, she faced the sea monster.
She must win this gamble!
Her Divine Sense guided her spirit Qi to rotate within her body.
She released some of the randomly scattered Immortal Spirit Qi directly.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
In that moment, white waves surged out from Bai Lian’s body.
They danced like ribbons in the air, like a fountain gushing forth.
Even heaven and earth were shocked by her imposing manner!
The long night brought by the sea monster was dispelled in an instant, and sunlight returned to the earth. The dark light on the sea monster melted away like ice and snow.
In the end, Bai Lian had the upper hand in this “battle” of imposing manner.
The sea monster was completely flustered.
Its body involuntarily took a step back, and its hard-won confidence collapsed in an instant.
The sea monster’s face changed drastically.
It saw Bai Lian fall onto the icy surface. It saw her hold the Dirt Free Sword slantwise. It saw her walk along the long Milky Way road.
Step by step.
Getting closer.
Finished. No refund is allowed.
Where are the merpeople? Come and help me!
The sea monster roared within its heart.
Now that Bai Lian’s focus was entirely on it, why hadn’t the merpeople appeared?
No. Bai Lian. Don’t come any closer!
The brutal spirit Qi emanating from Bai Lian left it no room to resist.
This was the first time it had encountered such an aggressive opponent.
In truth, Bai Lian didn’t want this either.
She could no longer control the Immortal Spirit Qi within her.
At this moment, she was like an unfeeling container.
But the contents of the container were too fierce, and the container itself was not as sturdy as imagined.
With every step forward, she endured unimaginable pain.
The muscles and skin hidden beneath her clothing constantly broke down and rebuilt themselves.
Her internal organs were a mess, and several times fresh blood surged up her throat, but she swallowed it back down.
She didn’t stop.
She couldn’t stop.
She had only one chance.
Bai Lian thought of her master, her Martial Sister, the jade rabbit, Si Yunshang, the eldest princess, Qing Luan…
She was too greedy.
If she died, even her final memories would stretch out like a lantern slide.
Therefore, to spare herself this long and boring process, she must not die!
Under the gaze of hundreds of eyes, it seemed like an eternity had passed.
Bai Lian finally stood before the trembling sea monster.
It was time.
She raised the Dirt Free Sword.
The sword qi rushed to the sky.
Ice crystals, water vapor, fog, and starry rivers all surged toward her at that moment.
Bai Lian forced a faint smile at the sea monster.
“I will live!”
The sea monster was stunned.
What do you mean?
It didn’t have time to think further.
The sword had fallen!
Bai Lian waved her sword, and the sea monster had no time to dodge.
“No!”
It could only do its best to resist.
The sword didn’t even cut through the skin of the sea monster when it just fell.
But as Bai Lian turned on the switch, the violent Immortal Spirit Qi poured into the sea monster’s body along Bai Lian’s meridians like a great tide.
The body of the sea monster quivered, as if it were a mountain on the verge of collapse.
But…
Not enough.
It would be impossible to kill the sea monster if it were only like this!
It’s really strong.
Burning.
Bai Lian was ready to burn part of her soul, thus triggering a more intense shock.
A magical scene appeared—her soul was unable to ignite!
“…”
How?
No, now is not the time to worry about this.
Bai Lian took out the second Immortal Spirit Stone.
Her body was near the brink of breaking, yet she would not die here—for there were people waiting for her!
Click——
Bai Lian crushed the Immortal Spirit Stone.
In a flash, a more violent impact arrived.
The white tide circled her and the sea monster, pulling them into its vortex.
Other cultivators couldn’t see anything. They could only see one ring of light after another radiating outward.
The aperture spread far.
It traveled all the way to the Flying Fog.
To Heluo Country.
To the Qiongming Peak.
“Dang!”
In the cave, An Lan, sitting by the stone table, was amazed as she saw the cup fall to the ground.
She, the Immortal Heavenly Lord, could not hold a cup firmly?
At that moment, a strong uneasiness suddenly surged into her heart.
She stood up.
It is…
In the next moment, An Lan’s face changed drastically. She had never been so flustered before.
“Bai Lian, Bai Lian!”
She couldn’t even sense Bai Lian’s location anymore.
