Volume 1: Xiao City, Xiao Family, Xiao Chen Chapter 88: The Sect's War, One Man Against the Heavens

  "Ah! That damned Lie Yan Zong Ming Xiao Chen is so sinister, intentionally hiding his cultivation. How detestable!"

  "Despicable and sinister, Moon Dance Sister was deceived. This little brat had intentionally set a trap, and now things are going to be terrible."

  "Come on, Moon Dance sister! If you lose to this kid, I'll die before letting him take you away!"

  In the Lu Yun Valley, a group of disciples saw Ming Xiachen's sudden explosion of cultivation and their faces changed drastically. They cursed loudly one after another, and their eyes quickly became bloodshot.

  Qingyunzi and Yaodaozi's eyes were also extremely gloomy, this Mingxianchen's cultivation of the Introspection Technique was quite extraordinary, and previously, they had not seen even a hint of it.

  "This person has a deep and sinister plan, probably had already made arrangements before making a move. The cultivation that was revealed earlier is likely to numb us, the target is Yue Wu."

  Completely opposite from Lu Yun Gou's side, Lie Yan Zong and his group were overjoyed.

  "Come on, Master Ming Xiao, take this beauty from Luoyun Valley back home with you."

  "Tonight, Master Ming is mighty, he forcefully took away the number one beauty of Luoyun Valley, making us envy him endlessly."

  "The youngsters of Luoyun Valley, don't just know how to shout from under the stage. Anyone who is not convinced can come on stage. I'm sure Master Mingxiao absolutely won't mind getting close to you all."

  "Not bad, not bad, Brother Shifu is right. Those people were too afraid to make a move earlier and sent out this delicate beauty instead. It looks like they're about to be won over by our Brother Mingxian's dual cultivation partner. To come and cause trouble at this moment is really despicable."

  Tianji Zi and Namo Laozu gazed at the gloomy faces of Qingyun Zi and the others, feeling a sense of relief in their hearts, with smiles barely concealed on their faces. Thinking about taking away this beautiful and talented girl, they felt extremely pleased.

  Ji Yue Wu's complexion changed slightly, and a few flashes of panic appeared in her eyes, but she suppressed them instantly.

  "Foundation Building Middle Period!" Mei Yue Wu's heart sank, with her current cultivation at the 9th layer of Qi Refining, plus some secret techniques, she might have a 50% chance of winning against a Foundation Building Early Period cultivator, but if it was Foundation Building Middle Period, her chances of winning were less than 20%. Taking a deep breath, she calmed herself down, and in her bright eyes that shone like pearls at the bottom of the ocean, a hint of determination flashed. She spoke coldly: "The outcome is still unknown until we fight, although Ming Xiao Dao friend's cultivation is deep, it can't make me surrender!"

  As they spoke, a surge of spiritual energy also emanated from his body, although it was much weaker than Ming Xiao Chen's during the war, but barely reached the early stage of foundation building.

  Hurry!

  Ji Yue Wu didn't stop, and with a reverse hand movement, she took out a yellow jade pendant from her storage bag, about the size of a palm, and infused it with spiritual energy before tossing it above her head.

  The jade pendant emitted a layer of soft yellow light, enveloping everything within a radius of one zhang around her.

  As the jade plate successfully activated, a hint of relief appeared on Kaguya's face, as if she was extremely confident in the defensive capabilities of this treasure. A glimmer of hesitation flashed across her eyes, and after a brief pause, she resolutely bit into her finger, her brow furrowed, and hot blood flowed out from the tip of her finger, but instead of dripping down, it condensed into a red blood bead at the tip of her finger.

  The girl's brush danced in mid-air, the blood beads on her fingertips seeming like a crimson sand pen. As she moved her hand, a one-foot-sized, intricate and mysterious symbol made of blood threads slowly appeared. This symbol seemed to be unknown, but just drawing it out had already consumed all of Kagutsuchi Mai's magical power; at this moment, her face was deathly pale, and her breathing became disordered.

  The calligraphy style is simple and unadorned, yet it conveys a sense of grandeur. At first glance, one can tell that this is no ordinary work. Although it is merely a painting, a suffocating feeling emanates from it, spreading out slowly.

  Ming Xiao Chen finally felt the powerful aura emanating from the talisman, his face revealing a serious expression. Although he was somewhat arrogant, he wasn't foolish, and this talisman's power was clearly not to be underestimated, so he naturally didn't dare to be careless.

  Hurry!

  He stretched out his hand and patted his forehead, but it was the first time he had taken out a treasure. The treasure was actually a jade Ruyi, about one foot in size, with a completely green body, covered with intricate patterns, the top was round, with carvings of plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums, and delicate hairs flowing on it.

  This jade Ruyi was also a rare treasure, and after being driven by the power of the law, it transformed into strands of green silk threads. These threads hung down, resembling delicate willow branches, forming a curtain that enveloped Ming Xiangchen in its interior.

  At the same time, a blood-colored glyph that was standing in mid-air in front of Ji Yue Wu suddenly burst out with a flash of golden light. A strange power seemed to be summoned through space, using this glyph as a medium, and descended instantly.

  "Hum!" At this moment, Xiao Chen's face suddenly changed, his body tensed up in an instant, and a few hints of panic appeared in his eyes. In the next instant, his expression returned to calmness, but his gaze towards Ji Yuewu was filled with astonishment and uncertainty. Just now, when Ji Yuewu activated the talisman, the golden seal that had never made any movement within Xiao Chen's divine soul suddenly began to violently tremble, and a strange aura burst out from it in an instant. Although it returned to normal between breaths, what shocked Xiao Chen was the aura emitted by the golden seal, the submission of the blood vessels inside his body, which made him shudder all over, and he seemed to have lost all willpower in an instant, unable to muster even a hint of resistance.

  "What kind of treasure is this golden seal, that it can resonate with Kagutsuchi's magic?" Just now, within that breath, Xiao Chen clearly felt that aura enter the blood-colored runes on Kagutsuchi's face, and when it returned, not only was there no consumption, but its volume had actually increased slightly.

  The sudden change in circumstances made Xiao Chen's face suddenly turn gloomy. He had been cultivating for so long and had achieved such a high level of cultivation, all thanks to the golden seal in his yuan Shen. If he couldn't figure out what it was, he would naturally be extremely uneasy.

  At this moment, Xiao Chen's expression changed unpredictably, but it did not attract the attention of outsiders, because the strong and powerful aura that suddenly emanated from the blood talisman in front of Ji Yue's dance on the Yingxian platform had already attracted everyone's attention.

  At the moment when the golden seal burst out with golden light, Kagutsuchi's eyes flashed with an unbelievable color for a moment, and then turned into a frantic joy. Although she hid it very quickly, she did not escape Xiao Chen's gaze. The woman's eyes quickly scanned around, but didn't notice anything unusual, and a hint of disappointment appeared at the bottom of her eyes.

  "Could it be that Sister Ji can sense the aura emitted by the Golden Seal? Moreover, I see that her talismanic method is extremely similar to the one used by Yu Ji and the Ling Corpse in the Sealed Land. The only difference lies in their powers being far apart. Could it be that Sister Ji also has a special bloodline power within her body, allowing her to resonate with the Golden Seal? It seems that the origin of the Golden Seal is related to her after all. This matter still requires further investigation." Xiao Chen's eyes flickered slightly as he noticed Ji Yuewu's gaze lingering around him, and he quickly lowered his eyelids, even his breathing slowing down instantly.

  PS: Got up early this morning and found out I failed the Computer Level 2 exam, what a tragedy!
