Chapter 28 Part 1: Sword! (1)
Unlike the previously raging flames that resembled a long spear, the flame rekindled on Bai Lian’s body burned with greater purity and gentleness.
As if melted by the sweetness of warm milk.
The rippling ridges resembled the aftershocks caused by tremors of a mountain peak.
Making one want to plunge directly into that white flame and savor its sensation.
But it remained the flame of spirit Qi. The gentleness was merely a disguise to lower people’s guard, and hidden within lay a mouth that devoured people!
The green raindrops, spraying like a gushing tide, disintegrated into ashes before even touching Bai Lian’s body, leaving behind no trace whatsoever.
“This is true purification!”
Bai Lian pondered to herself.
The greenish sky looked disgusting.
She felt that if she were to be purified, it would be because of doing good deeds rather than evil ones.
So Bai Lian glared at the huge green figure that had resumed its movement.
“Damn it, old man, how dare you bully someone in their twenties like me! Today, I won’t let you get away with it!”
Perhaps it was because of hearing her abandon her image and curse, or something else entirely, but the green shadow suddenly became like a powder keg about to explode.
Clap!
The twin-headed dragon descended from the sky, shattering the earth into innumerable fragments.
Apart from the vicinity of the altar and the place where the legacy of the Original Dragon was passed on, there wasn’t a single intact place in the nest of the Original Dragon.
One should know that this was actually a complete small world!
Even if it had existed for millions of years and fallen into decay, it could not be disturbed by an ordinary immortal.
But this couldn’t frighten Bai Lian.
Double-headed dragon?
Laugh my ass off!
She had already cut off a snake long ago.
Si Yunshang had once tried to scare her with a double-headed dragon, but her stubbornness was pierced with a single poke.
At this moment, the system emerged again and started causing trouble.
[Task 1: Continue to fight against the nameless green shadow (Reward: The Godly Blood of Fu Zhu).]
[Task 2: Abandon the fourth Martial Sister, Yue Wuyang, and Master Turtle and escape alone. (Reward: Light Skill +12)]
From the perspective of task rewards, choosing to run away was relatively safe.
The reward of Light Skill +12 wasn’t sufficient to cause Bai Lian’s demise.
And the reward for Task 1 was quite frightening.
The Godly Blood of Fu Zhu only had the word “god” attached to it, and in reality, it was just ordinary blood of Fu Zhu, far less precious than the refined blood of Fu Zhu.
But Fu Zhu was, after all, no less a divine beast than the green dragon.
Its drop of blood meant nothing to the Immortal Emperor.
But if it fell into the mortal world, the power of that single drop would far surpass the descent of ten thousand mountains from the sky.
“It seems that even with a desperate effort, survival may not be guaranteed.”
Bai Lian understood.
The system gave her two paths, but she knew that in reality, she had no choice.
Let us not speak of Yue Wuyang and Master Turtle for now.
Could she leave the fourth Martial Sister behind and go alone?
No.
Emotions are not easily abandoned.
Choose Task 1!
Bai Lian bravely moved forward, facing the increasingly violent green light rain coming from all directions.
Behold, the green shade pulled out the Candle Dragon, and its anger was undisguised.
As if witnessing the most precious jewel in the world being desecrated, anger mingled with heartache.
“Purification, purification!
“All excess things must be wiped away!”
“All those filthy entanglements shall be fully condemned to eternal hell.”
“Crossing over to the other side, transcending worldly desires, purification of this ugly world shall begin!”
The giant waved his spear.
The icy intent to kill and the lifeless absence of warmth intertwined.
The frenzied wind blew from the underworld through the altar.
In an instant, Bai Lian’s clothes were dissolved, but she had already sensed this coming and wrapped her body in flames.
Master Turtle was the closest, playing with his front paws and holding the power of a world-ending cannon in his mouth.
Various magical spells emerged, causing the colors of the heavens and earth to change.
But this ultimate move that had shaken the world in ordinary times only made the green shadow tremble for a moment.
Clatter—
Like lightning flashing.
The spear of Candle Dragon tore through space and time, and directly nailed the shell of Master Turtle, causing countless cracks to burst open.
“Get out of here!”
Bai Lian immediately flew over.
The Dirt Free Sword had been broken, but she created another magic white sword from the void to perform the Sunset Sword Technique.
The sun descended and the sky was ablaze with a dazzling light that consumed everything around it.
The explosion didn’t pause for even a moment.
The green shadow finally took a step back, but only one step.
Master Turtle took advantage of the opportunity to escape, though it suffered considerable injuries.
“Puff—”
Master Turtle was spitting out blood in large quantities.
Its strength shouldn’t have been defeated so quickly. At the very least, it could have fought with the green shadow for hundreds of rounds.
Unlike Bai Lian, who acted as if nothing had happened, its soul was unable to resist the powerful pressure emanating from the green shadow’s body.
It mistook what it saw not as a Spear of Candle Dragon, but as killing intent condensed from the souls of countless gods and demons!
Under the pressure of that killing intent, its response time was slowed down a hundredfold compared to usual, and it could only watch helplessly as the Spear of Candle Dragon fell onto its back.
“That person and this one…”
Master Turtle’s face was solemn.
It recalled the scene of its first encounter with An Lan.
At that moment, An Lan had effortlessly dispatched the black kelp that had taken up residence upon her with a single, unremarkable shot.
Upon careful consideration, the skill encapsulated within that shot and this green shadow were uncannily similar.
Was Bai Lian’s master truly the ultimate boss?
Master Turtle was unable to continue its in-depth research.
“I am blocking in front!”
Bai Lian took a step forward and, like a towering wall, intercepted all the pressure.
“…”
Master Turtle hesitated slightly, then immediately nodded.
“I am here to assist you!”
Now was not the time to show off one’s abilities. If it rushed forward recklessly, it would be no different from sending itself to be beheaded.
The green shadow sneered, confident in his invincibility, as he had once possessed unrivaled power.
“Long ago, I crushed the void and destroyed the Great Tao. From beyond the other shore, I looked out over the four quarters, while you were not even born, inferior even to floating dust. Today, I will not say more to you. Ten strikes will suffice. I will purify myself if I cannot kill you before that!”
Boom!
The green shadow expanded.
A massive momentum that seemed to engulf heaven and earth swept through the four corners in an instant.
Even if all the Celestial Immortals launched a charge together, they would not be able to generate such a terrifying oppressive force.
The verdant green light had completely broken through the nest of the Original Dragon, resembling a brand-new sun ready to occupy the sky of the East Divine Land.
Master Turtle could hardly lift his head.
Yue Wuyang, who was lying in the pit, almost lost control of her bodily functions after convulsing.
Many people throughout the East Divine Land had also stood up, feeling the unusual sensations.
“This is…”
In Thousand Sword City, Bu Qingxiao, who had been indulging in eating, drinking, and living for a long time, suddenly experienced a drastic change in her facial expression.
She caught a whiff of a familiar scent.
[Ten moves?]
Bai Lian gritted her teeth.
These harsh words didn’t frighten her.
I will never let you have your way; even if I cannot win, I will hold on until the eleventh move!
She’s ready.
She persisted with such obstinacy that she resembled Don Quixote charging against the windmill.
She wielded a sword as wide as her arm to confront the spear of the Candle Dragon, which was thicker than a hundred of her standing side by side.
This time, Bai Lian finally realized the pressure that Master Turtle had faced earlier.
“How could it be!”
Her sword struck the spear without leaving a trace.
Gulu—
Bai Lian couldn’t help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
It’s too big!
It’s too long!
How fierce!
If this shot hits accurately, her frail and slender body will likely be torn apart instantly.
It turns out that the green shadow just now had not exerted full force, or perhaps the action of the fourth Martial Sister intercepting the inheritance of the Original Dragon had forced him to make a quick decision and pay a certain price.
“Damn it!”
Bai Lian became anxious.
If possible, she would also like to pay the price to temporarily enhance her own strength, but she cannot do it. She tried it in Qingxu, but her soul is non-combustible!
She could only muster twelve percent of her energy to deal with the ever-rising tide of spirit Qi.
Fortunately, Master Turtle occasionally emerged to lend a helping hand, which enabled her to barely repel the attack of the Candle Dragon’s spear.
But this was only a brief dawn.
After delivering the vicious words, the green shadow completely suppressed his fury.
He was as calm as an emotionless killing machine.
With the first shot fired, all things crumbled.
The second shot fell, and space was lost.
The third shot fell, and time stood still.
Master Turtle was thrown backward by the fourth shot, and his heavy shell was completely gone.
After the fifth shot was fired, Bai Lian found herself trapped in a green cage.
All directions were sealed off, leaving her no way out.
And the spear of Candle Dragon fell slowly on her head like this.
This must be a situation of certain death!
The fierce wind whipped Bai Lian’s snow-white tresses into a wild dance.
What, they agreed to hold out until the eleventh move, but she barely made it halfway. Bai Lian is such a loser!
Although Bai Lian was in a dangerous situation, her heart miraculously calmed down.
She no longer paid attention to the disturbance above her head but instead looked around leisurely like a young girl sitting at a dining table savoring afternoon tea.
Master Turtle’s shell was broken, but the exposed body didn’t look fierce; instead, it appeared round and innocent.
Yue Wuyang, who was chased back and forth, looked disheveled with her dirty face and torn clothes. The red mark on her lower abdomen became more vivid, conveying a strong sense of sensuality.
There was no trace of the fourth Martial Sister around here, but through the entanglement of souls, Bai Lian also knew that the fourth Martial Sister was unharmed.
What a peaceful moment it is!
Bai Lian blinked her eyes.
By now, the master has probably gone out, and she surmised that she too must be seeking ways to become stronger.
Hmm.
In any case, hopefully the master can return with a fruitful journey; otherwise, she will surely become upset again.
Bai Lian lightly placed her hand on the jade pendant that rested on her chest, as if she intended to convey her longing through it.
Then she remembered the other Martial Sisters.
Recently, the second Martial Sister has been fighting constantly with the third Martial Sister. With Hong Yi’s assistance, the second Martial Sister always ends up at a disadvantage.
Continuing like this definitely won’t lead to anything good.
However…
They probably won’t fight anymore in the future, which is not a bad thing if you think about it.
The fifth Martial Sister is either cultivating martial arts or indulging in cuisine. It is customary for those who practice martial arts to have a hearty appetite.
Bai Lian is not worried that the fifth Martial Sister will turn into a ball by eating, as the amount of calories is simply not enough for her to expend.
But still, she must eat more grass like the jade rabbit!
Unfortunately.
On weekdays, the fifth Martial Sister was both obedient and sensible, except that she showed a special resistance when it came to eating grass.
“No, I don’t want it!”
Youth truly knows not the value of grass.
