Chapter 1560
by post_apiChapter 1560: Parting Ways
"Boom!"
The entire Heavenly Crystal barrier shattered like fragile glass, with countless sharp ice shards flying everywhere. The heavy echoes of reverberating energy filled the air, along with the ethereal sound of breaking ice crystals.
A terrifying gust of wind filled the sky, accompanied by purple and golden holy light, shaking the hearts of all who witnessed it.
The illusion of holy light dissipated, and golden rain fell, while remnants of energy floated within the Heavenly Crystal barrier, creating a sense of delicacy in the world.
"Bang!"
A long arc of blood-red light flashed through the air as the Fifth Saint Child was struck by a powerful blade, sending him crashing far away.
With an expression of disbelief in his eyes, Su Yi realized that the sudden surge in his strength was something he could never possess. As the revered existence of Sacred Mountain, he had actually been defeated!
"The aura of the saint king has been broken…" Xue Honglou sighed inwardly.
Defeated so swiftly and thoroughly, Xue Honglou spat out a mouthful of blood with a cry of surprise, his gaze fixed on Su Yi and the Water Crimson Heavenly Crystal before him.
When attempting to stand up, a horrifying scar on his shoulder made him grimace in pain, causing him to stumble and fall to the ground once again. His face turned pale, and blood continued to flow from his body.
After the Saint King Protective Body Qi was shattered by a dreadful force, Xue Honglou’s meridians were damaged. Unable to bear it any longer, he panted heavily on the ground, his face pale, as if he were an old and dilapidated bellows.
"Fifth Saint Child!" Li Ling shouted loudly.
"Su Yi!" Yun Qing also rushed forward, tears streaming down her face.
Yun Qing and Li Ling rushed towards the injured pair separately. Li Ling’s eyes were hazy as she looked at Xue Honglou’s bloody wounds, her hands trembling uncontrollably.
"Are you alright, Saint Child?" Li Ling gently wiped the blood from the Saint Child’s body.
Xue Honglou struggled persistently, wanting to stand up and reach for the Water Crimson Heavenly Crystal. He said, "Help me get to the Heavenly Crystal."
Li Ling hesitated for a moment, then gently supported Xue Honglou and took slow steps towards the Heavenly Crystal.
On the other side, Yun Qing was even more confused. Su Yi’s whole body had become as hot as a burning red iron, and his smooth and shiny skin had cracked with many black cracks, emitting hot steam.
Su Yi’s eyes were bloodshot, and no matter how Yun Qing called out to him, Su Yi remained motionless. Worried and anxious, Yun Qing transferred her pure and peaceful wood attribute energy into him. The energy flowed into Su Yi’s wide meridians like a spring.
"Bang!"
With a loud "bang," a tremendous wave of force rose up in front of him. Su Yi’s extremely hot energy forcefully threw Yun Qing far away like a push.
Yun Qing swiftly turned back in mid-air like a swallow and steadied herself, her eyes filled with astonishment.
She could clearly sense that a terrible power was occupying Su Yi’s body, continuously sending shockwaves through his countless meridians like layers of ripples.
"Boom boom!"
At this moment, under the unmatched forceful impact, the entire barrier shattered into countless ice crystals, causing the entire ice crystal canopy to crumble and the void to tremble. Everyone’s gazes were filled with shock.
Thunderous explosions echoed in the sky like an earthquake. Li Ling and Xue Honglou had just stood up, but they were thrown down again by the shaking.
"Why don’t you leave! Do I have to kill you myself? The Water Crimson Heavenly Crystal was obtained by Su Yi at the cost of his life, so just get out of here!"
Yun Qing turned her head around, angrily shouted with hatred, her eyes full of resentment and anger, staring straight at Liling and Xue Honglou with a piercing gaze.
Xue Honglou’s face turned serious, while Li Ling hesitated and looked at the Fifth Saint Child.
To be honest, Yun Qing didn’t dislike Lijing. It can be seen from Su Yi bringing Xue Honglou in that Su Yi didn’t treat them the same as the other Sacred Mountain disciples. Yun Qing didn’t really need to kill them.
"Fifth Saint Child, let’s go!" Liling’s eyes were teary as she took out a pill from her pocket and fed it to Xue Honglou, her eyes filled with pain.
Meanwhile, a strong desire for the distant Water Crimson Heavenly Crystal filled Xue Honglou’s eyes. When he desperately tried to activate his energy, he suddenly coughed out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground.
Xue Honglou clenched his teeth, blood pooling on the ground. He pounded the floor with his hands and said fiercely, "Su Yi, I hope you’re still alive for the Sky Wind Ranked Battle! Li Ling, let’s go!"
Li Ling nodded firmly, supporting Xue Honglou. She nodded at Yun Qing and said softly, "Young lady, please be careful!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a golden light shimmered, and a radiant holy light fell on Xue Honglou’s still indifferent face, disappearing without a trace.
"Ha ha!"
Countless ice crystals fell on Yun Qing, tearing her clothes and flowing like water.
Blood and water mingled, a few strands of hair fell in front of Yun Qing’s eyes, her eyes were full of Su Yi, she didn’t care about these things.
"Su Yi, hold on, nothing will happen!"
Yun Qing stood up, a bright and powerful energy gathered in the depths of her palm, and directly reached for the Water Crimson Heavenly Crystal, flowing into her embrace.
"Oh my, you finally have the Water Crimson Heavenly Crystal!" The Iron Soul Beast in the hall was also extremely weak.
"Are you the Iron Soul Beast?" Yun Qing furrowed her brows.
"Yes, I absorbed the Heavenly Crystal Residue to communicate with you through it. Su Yi has lost consciousness, take him out first! Listen to me!" The Iron Soul Beast also felt an extremely uncomfortable force at this moment.
"Okay!"
Yun Qing stood up, her energy gathered in her palm. The Wood Spirit God appeared behind her once again, and with a powerful swipe, Su Yi was placed on the God’s hand.
"Woosh!"
As soon as Su Yi landed on the Wood Spirit God’s hand, he emitted steam, like a mini sun. The Wood Spirit God cried out in pain, struggling to hold on.
"Hang in there, Little Wood! It’ll be over soon!" Yun Qing’s energy surged again as she gently touched the Wood Spirit God’s hand, whispering.
"Save me, miss! Help me! Su Yi and I have no grudges!"
Yun Qing followed the voice and saw Wang Quande, his legs struck by ice crystals, lying on the ground, calling out in pain and unable to catch his breath.
"You old scoundrel! Su Yi must have a reason to hate you so much. You must have done something unforgivable!" Yun Qing scolded, and after thinking for a moment, she placed him on the Wood Spirit God’s hand.
Yun Qing stepped on Wang Quande’s body, the Wood Spirit God pushed down with force, and they leaped high, breaking through the sky, reaching towards the moon.
The night sky hung high, with only a few stars shining.
A huge green figure, with a small head and a large body, completely covered in green like an emerald, strong muscles supporting Yun Qing and the others steadily.
"Find a place close to the moon, a place with abundant water elements, little girl, hurry!"
"Okay!"
Sitting on the palm of the Wood Spirit, Yun Qing’s senses expanded, pointing towards the distance. With a single step covering hundreds of Zhang, soon, the group disappeared into the vast night.
In an instant, a faint green silhouette floated and directly escaped from the back of Baicao, heading straight towards the southeast mountains, away from the direction of Central Region.
