Chapter 15: Would You Like to Taste My Foot?
The Flying Sword that flew out from the side front was not actually shining.
However, because the background was pitch black and it came very suddenly, it firmly attracted Bai Lian’s attention like a magnet.
The white rainbow cut a huge gap in the black background.
At the moment when Bai Lian’s dharma body pierced through Witch Queen’s body with her arm, the Flying Sword that pulled the white rainbow also accurately swept across Witch Queen’s neck.
Blood splattered.
Bai Lian stared firmly at the black figure standing at the end of the white rainbow.
There was no mistake, this is the silhouette of the Demon Lord!
But the problem is, didn’t the Demon Lord already die?
Although Bai Lian felt that something was off at the time, as the Demon Lord had died too suddenly, she carefully confirmed that the Demon Lord’s soul had indeed dissipated, leaving no trace behind. Otherwise, she would not have been able to easily turn the page on the matter.
"What exactly is going on here?"
As Bai Lian gritted her teeth, the black figure finally emerged from the darkness.
He was a young man in a black robe with a golden headdress. His icy face was sharply defined, like a carefully polished mountain wall.
Sure enough, this was the Demon Lord of the Pavilion of Mountain and Sea, who had been buried a while ago!
"You’re not dead?"
Bai Lian’s guard was up.
The Witch Queen’s bindings were released due to the damage caused to her, and she picked up the Immortal Lance again.
Having temporarily escaped the danger, she still couldn’t relax even a bit.
The situation is already complicated enough, and now the Demon Lord has emerged. Who knows to what extent things will develop?
Sometimes, clear water is better than murky water!
Was the water in the Land of Immortals during ancient times murky?
As a result, the once prosperous Thirteen States of the Sea were completely destroyed, leaving only the East Divine Land and the North Luzhou in the boundless sea.
The Demon Lord stopped one mile away from Bai Lian.
He reached out his right hand and caught the Flying Sword that had flown around in a big circle and came back.
The wind blew in the darkness, causing his long hair and the cloth belts on his black robe to move erratically.
"What a pity."
A clear and chilly voice sounded.
At this moment, he completely shed the amiability he once possessed, and he resembled more of a tranquil ice lake than Bai Lian.
That’s more like it!
Bai Lian thought to herself.
After all, the Demon Venerable had been alive for thousands of years; how could his character be inferior to hers?
Moreover, as the Demon Lord, he was able to grow step by step in the Pavilion of Mountain and Sea, a major demonic cult. How could he be a kind-hearted person?
"I had already planned everything. I was only waiting for you and that fool to fight to the point of mutual destruction and then come out to finish the job. As long as you’re dead, then no one in this world can stop the Pavilion of Mountain and Sea."
Bai Lian gritted her teeth secretly.
Well, well.
So you were playing the game of "the snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman gets the benefits."
The plan of the Demon Lord was so simple, even a child could think of it, but it proved to be very difficult to execute.
At that time, Bai Lian had almost reached the level of a human immortal. Looking across the vast wilderness, how many could deceive in front of her?
The Demon Lord succeeded.
Simple methods, when implemented efficiently, are less likely to go wrong.
But… something went wrong.
"I still underestimated your strength," the Demon Lord exhaled, and the Flying Sword transformed into countless shapes, forming a sword formation around his body. "I never thought that your power could improve so quickly. I also never thought that you could kill the so-called immortal Demon Emperor. This one mistake has completely eliminated any chance of my plan’s success."
Bai Lian said in a low voice, "So you are showing up now because you have found a new opportunity?"
Before "dying," the Demon Lord said a lot, most of which were lies, but she believed that the Demon Lord’s dream of making the East Divine Land return to the rule of the demonic path was true.
Otherwise, he needn’t have schemed so hard for these things.
"No."
The Demon Lord turned around, and Bai Lian turned with him.
Witch Queen’s body had returned to normal, her beautiful face full of anger, and the twelve witch beasts circled around her, roaring to vent their anger.
"Then let me change the question. You entered the realm of human immortals long ago. With your strength, you could have swept the four major sects years ago, without waiting until now."
The Demon Lord replied, "You are oversimplifying the four major sects. Their heritage mostly comes from the supreme beings of the ancient times. Take the Thousand Sword City for example, the founder of the Thousand Sword City created the sect by breaking through with his sword, and once killed all dream demons of a small world within three days and nights. His strength was already infinitely closer to the Earth Immortals. He was just born in the wrong era. If he had lived in the Land of Immortals before the way of the Great Tao collapsed, becoming an Immortal Emperor would not have been difficult."
"?"
The founder of the Thousand Sword City, the "crazy" man who loved his sword so much that he melted himself into it, right?
"He has always been guarding the Thousand Sword City, and I am not sure I can defeat him."
Bai Lian’s mouth was slightly agape.
Do you have a serious illness? If not, then what’s the meaning of attacking me?
Even if I die, isn’t there still the "madman"?
"A few years ago, the founder of Thousand Sword City finally dispersed."
Well, forget it then.
After muttering in her heart, Bai Lian divided half of her attention to the Witch Queen.
The Demon Lord is very dangerous, as is the Witch Queen.
How would someone feel if they were filled with jealousy and hate, about to achieve great success, but then suddenly beaten?
You can see it from the current state of the Witch Queen.
"An ignorant ant dares to provoke the blue dragon soaring in the Ninth Heaven. Today you will undoubtedly die, and no one in the East Divine Land will survive!"
The hoarse roar pierced the long night, and the twisted black mist danced wildly behind the Witch Queen.
Her clothes fluttered uncontrollably, like out-of-control arms, exuding an eerie strangeness far beyond Bai Lian’s aesthetic sense.
The Demon Lord’s expression remained unchanged, and the sword formation around his body became even more powerful.
"If you only target Bai Lian, I would still observe for a while, but you insisted on using the East Divine Land as a bet."
He shook his head.
"Rise!"
At the command, thousands of sword rains rushed towards the Witch Queen, with such momentum that it seemed to have drilled a hole in the sky.
The Witch Queen sneered, "Arrogant person, I’ll kill you like a dog!"
Six witch beasts flew out and in the blink of an eye, tore apart the raining swords.
The remaining beasts were not idle, except for one left to protect her, the rest headed straight for Bai Lian.
"I knew it."
Bai Lian’s plan to sit back and watch the tigers fight was nipped in the bud.
"But if it’s only five beasts, it’s not that difficult for me to deal with them with my current strength…"
Bai Lian’s voice suddenly halted.
Changed!
She realized that all of the beasts that had been fighting her had suddenly become stronger!
It became even more difficult for her to handle them.
"If this goes on, there is no need for the Witch Queen to intervene personally. All that is left is for my soul to burn out completely, and then it’s all over."
Bai Lian was in a state of urgency.
The East Divine Land had sunk, and everyone was going to die.
What on earth had happened?
She took the time to visit the Witch Queen, but as soon as she saw her, she was stunned.
The witch queen, who had previously looked fierce, suddenly had an unusually gentle expression. She sat on a bony throne with her right leg crossed, and from Bai Lian’s perspective, she could even see her fleshy thigh.
And in front of the Witch Queen was a circular chessboard.
The Witch Queen deftly placed chess pieces on the board.
After each move, she would perform a short yet elegant ceremony, and then a complicated incantation would be embedded into the chessboard along with the chess piece.
"This is…"
Bai Lian soon became aware of the problem.
The circular chessboard seemed to represent the world they were in, and every time a chess piece was placed, the strength of the witch beasts would increase.
The function of those chess pieces is not limited to this. Thick pillars emerged out of nowhere, connecting to each other one by one, gradually squeezing the range of activity for both her and the Demon Lord.
The Demon Lord attempted to break the "prison," but even with all his might, his attack only caused the pillars to sway slightly.
"This is the true power of an Immortal Emperor," the Witch Queen sneered, "You are just a fluke to have obtained the inheritance of the ancient era, how dare you challenge a real Immortal Emperor? What makes you any different from a mere worm?"
The Demon Lord being ridiculed remained expressionless.
It was Bai Lian who felt a bit dizzy.
Although they both mocked their enemies harshly, Bai Lian’s master was much more skilled than Witch Queen, as she never launched personal attacks first, and usually directly inflicted physical damage on her enemies after mocking them.
Don’t you agree with me?
Do you agree now?
"It seems that you all value the East Divine Land very much, so I must destroy it even more!"
After putting the best chess piece on the chessboard, the Witch Queen slowly stood up.
With a wave of her right hand, the chessboard grew in the wind and suddenly became as big as a high-rise building.
Uh-oh!
Bai Lian’s pupils shrank.
She sensed an extremely heavy pressure emanating from the enormous chessboard. The air around her began to solidify, and she felt as if she had been sealed within a wall of concrete.
The way of the Great Tao! It cannot be wrong. This is definitely the Ancestral Witchcraft Great Tao that the Witch Queen relies on!
The two ways of the Great Tao within Bai Lian’s body trembled involuntarily, seeming to become excited at having found their counterparts.
However, she dared not rush up in reality.
Bai Lian had self-awareness, and the gap between her and the Witch Queen was much greater than what could be seen by the naked eye.
The quantity of the way of the Great Tao is significant, but the quality is even more crucial.
Unless the two paths of the Great Tao in her body recover to the level when they were in her master’s body, if she rushes up now, she will probably be completely obliterated in a few breaths.
But if she doesn’thing, she will die and the East Divine Land will also be doomed!
Bai Lian remembers the scene in the game clearly.
In all the apocalyptic endings, the final boss will step out from the crack between the heavens and lower her right hand gently.
Boom!
Amidst the explosive sound, the space shattered like a broken mirror, and a huge disc descended from the sky.
The raging fire burned the sky, painting it a bloody red, plunging the entire world into doomsday.
Countless cultivators roared and rushed towards the sky, trying to stop the descent of the disk.
They carried the heart of protecting the East Divine Land.
They were also prepared to risk their lives for it.
However, in the face of a huge power gap, no heart or preparation was enough.
The cultivators with weaker strength were crushed before they even approached the disk. Even the cultivators who were able to reach the vicinity of the disk with their strong cultivation bases were eventually destroyed by the overwhelming force of the Great Tao.
In one of the bad ends, Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, who had not done anything wrong and quietly played the role of an ordinary cultivator, met her conclusion.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian stood on the cliff, calmly watching the bloody sunset engulf the earth.
Boom!
The second explosion rang out, leaving only a shocking scene of a continent collapsing and being flooded by the sea, as well as a line of text narration, in front of the player’s screen.
[I am tired. Ending it like this is not bad.]
How can such an ending be called "not bad"?
Terrible.
This is a worse ending than being dismembered by the crazy Martial Sisters!
Bai Lian refuses to accept it.
So, even though she knew she would die if she charged forward, she decided to struggle a little longer.
The Witch Queen lightly touched the disc, causing it to fly towards the boundary between the East Divine Land and the North Luzhou. As it moved forward, the disc grew bigger and bigger.
Bai Lian’s body also underwent changes at that moment.
Long hair flying in the wind.
On the side where Qianhuan Real Eyes located turned into an icy color.
On the other side where the other eye located, the hair was as black as ink.
The space around Bai Lian was also affected, half white and half black.
This was the vision produced by simultaneously operating two ways of the Great Tao. Although the degree of magnificence was inferior to Fu Zhu Special Effect and Yaoguang Special Effect, relying solely on the momentum was enough to suppress most of the world without movement.
But at this moment, a tall figure suddenly appeared in front of Bai Lian.
That was the Demon Lord who broke through the blockade of the witch beasts!
Oh no!
Bai Lian’s heart suddenly sank.
She had almost forgotten the existence of the Demon Lord. If the Demon Lord intervened at this moment, then she would have no way to stop the Witch Queen’s preparation completely.
The Demon Lord turned his back to Bai Lian and said without turning his head, "I should have followed the words of my ancestors and killed you."
Ah?
Bai Lian was stunned.
"But ancestors are ancestors, and I am me. The prehistoric era when he was alive is completely different from now."
Hu.
Numerous demonic energies surged on the Demon Lord’s body, and his whole persona instantly became several times more sinister.
"I won’t kill you, at least not now."
Bai Lian asked, "What do you mean by that?"
The Demon Lord said in a deep voice, "After the great ancient battle, the Land of Immortals fell into darkness. It was my ancestor, the Demon Ancestor of Mountain and Sea who unified and restored order to the Land of Immortals!
Speaking of the latter, his voice suddenly rose, with a faint sense of unusual satisfaction inside.
"The Pavilion of Mountain and Sea is different from any other sect in the East Divine Land. Other sects may survive a great calamity once, but only the Pavilion of Mountain and Sea has been passed down since ancient times without interruption."
"The reason why I can break through the barrier between Human and Immortal, and why I can avoid your investigation, is because the law I practice is one of the purest Heavenly Lord’s laws in this world!"
"!"
Bai Lian was truly stunned by the Demon Lord’s words.
From ancient times to the present, isn’t that a continuation of millions of years?
The time span was so long that she became somewhat blurred in her consciousness.
Due to the existence of the "Heaven and Earth Disaster", inheriting the lineage is the primary pursuit for the sects in this world. To inherit for dozens of epochs, what kind of immortal being is that?
"The East Divine Land was originally created by the Demon Lord of Mountain and Sea!"
The Demon Lord lifted his head and gazed straight at the slowly flying disc as well as the Witch Queen with a gloomy expression. A horrifying aura gradually emanated from his body, which made Bai Lian’s heart tremble.
Is this the true strength of the Demon Lord?
Judging by his aura alone, Bai Lian knew that his strength was not inferior to that of the Demon Emperor.
Perhaps the reason why he didn’t confront the Demon Emperor head-on was only because he feared the Demon Emperor’s immortal body.
A deep purple lightning ball formed in the Demon Lord’s hand. Suddenly, his thunder wings spread open on his back, and he stood in the sky like a god of creation!
At this moment, the God of Creation turned around and faced Bai Lian.
His eyes sparkled with golden light, and his aura was radiant.
"The East Divine Land, which is also the East Divine Land of the Pavilion of Mountain and Sea. As the pavilion master of the Pavilion of Mountain and Sea, the first thing I need to do is not to kill you to fulfill the wish of our ancestors, but to firmly grasp the East Divine Land under my control!"
With a clench of the Demon Lord’s right hand, the world shone with a bright light and the mountains and seas boiled.
"Even if the East Divine Land is to be destroyed, it can only be destroyed by my hand. Others, whether they are Immortal Emperors or Heavenly Lords, unless they kill me, there is no possibility of destroying the East Divine Land!"
The word "land" descended like a heavy hammer, fiercely smashing towards the Witch Queen.
The Witch Queen easily brushed off the qi arrow and laughed, "Then come and try it! An ant is an ant, even if its ancestor is the supreme of the human race, it won’t change this fact!"
"Be quiet."
The Demon Lord only glanced lightly at the Witch Queen, then flapped his wings and flew straight towards the falling disk at a speed surpassing lightning.
The ocean sobbed and the sky roared.
Easily overpowering the Witch Queen’s roar standing before the throne.
Bai Lian looked at the Witch Queen and finally locked onto the Demon Lord, who was already thousands of miles away, with her Divine Sense.
"Whose is the East Divine Land?"
Bai Lian didn’t know, but just like what she saw in the game, people who love this world are definitely not only her.
Not everyone has strong power, but when their homeland is invaded by external enemies, those who love this place will not hesitate to contribute their own strength, even if that strength is so weak that it cannot shake the external enemies.
She watched as the Demon Lord finally caught up with the disc.
She watched as the Demon Lord transformed into a demon sword.
She watched as the demon sword stabbed into the disc!
She watched as the demon sword engaged in a life and death battle with the disc!
She watched as the unstoppable disc finally stopped advancing under the erosion of the overbearing demonic energy!!!
Time stopped flowing and space solidified.
In the next moment, a crimson light burst from the center of the disc and shook the seas more violently than when Bai Lian had battled the Demon Emperor before.
The sea water was annihilated, and the mountains crumbled into oblivion.
Although the shock wave caused by this strike was terrifying, it didn’t reach the borders of North Luzhou and East Divine Land.
It was intercepted, indeed intercepted!
Bai Lian’s eyes lit up as the power accumulated in her body grew stronger.
"How is this possible!"
The face of the Witch Queen changed dramatically.
"Impossible, impossible."
She clenched her fists; they were just ants from the mortal realm. Being able to withstand her attack once already took all of their strength. Since this was the case, if she were to launch another attack, she would undoubtedly destroy the East Divine Land!
The Witch Queen once again set up the chessboard and placed each piece carefully.
However, as she was in the midst of placing them, she suddenly clutched her chest, spat up a mouthful of blood, and repeatedly staggered backwards with a pallid face.
"This body can no longer endure!"
Indeed.
Yue Wuyang had given half of her life force to Bai Lian, so this body was simply unable to withstand this degree of overuse.
"Damn shameless bitch!"
The Witch Queen frantically tried to remove the chessboard, but at that moment, a shadow suddenly appeared over her head.
She quickly looked up and saw that it was Bai Lian, who had removed her shoes and revealed her feet encased in socks.
"You…"
"Would you like to taste my foot?"
There was no expression on Bai Lian’s face.
Without waiting for the Witch Queen’s reply, she heavily stepped on the Witch Queen’s face.
Enjoy it, foolish woman!
