Chapter 263: 18: The Opportunity that Belongs to Zhao Huai 2
If the host of powerful demons broke out of the Illusory Southern Sea, it would spell disaster not only for the Spiritual Mountains but also for the entire world, and the Mortal World would not be spared either. “Husband, what is the ten-thousand-year flood dragon gall?”
Yu Qinghan asked curiously at this moment.
Gu Tianji saw Yu Qinghan’s profile and smiled, “Sister-in-law, you may not know that Brother Zhao’s walking sword was damaged in the process of dealing with a devil cultivator, so he came to the Spiritual Mountains to recast his life-bound magical treasure. And this ten-thousand -year flood dragon gall is the most important ingredient for his life-bound flying sword.”
After listening, Yu Qinghan understood the situation.
She really liked being called “sister-in-law.”
“Master Lord, is there really no way?”
Yu Qinghan looked at Elder Bai, asking.
Her husband’s affairs were her affairs.
Of course, she had to help with such an important matter as creating a life-bound magical treasure.
Elder Bai sighed, “It’s not that I don’t want to help you two, but if it was before the Devil Sect’s invasion, it could be manageable. But given the current grim situation of Hierarch Hai, the Illusory Southern Sea definitely cannot be opened again.”
“Boom!”
While they were talking, suddenly there was a tremor from a distant Immortal Peak.
The surrounding disciples all looked towards the source of the shock with horrified expressions.
Elder Bai was the first to react, saying in surprise:
“That’s from the direction of the spiritual pond, could it be…”
Before he could finish speaking, he turned into a streak of light, flying toward the direction of the silver white spiritual pond.
Zhao Huai and Yu Qinghan exchanged a glance, seeing the gravity in each other’s eyes.
They transformed into a rainbow light and followed immediately.
“Wait for me!”
Gu Tianji quickly followed.
Only a True Disciple with a worried look on his face was left behind.
“Could the seal of the Illusory Southern Sea have been broken?”
“That’s impossible. Elder Hai… now Hierarch Hai, has been garrisoning for a hundred years! It can’t be broken just like that, right?”
“If the seal has indeed been broken, it will be a great disaster!”
The floating island at the foot of the distant Immortal Peak and its spiritual pond.
The scene, which was originally peaceful and serene, was now shattered as the silver white pond water split apart.
The bottom of the lake was exposed.
Beneath the mud, there was an abyss that seemed to stretch indefinitely deep.
Inside it was pitch-black, without the slightest hint of light.
In the boundless abyss, countless pairs of luminescent spheres, each with their own unique color like the mysterious starry sky, darted past.
They were red, golden, purple, and even deep dark gray.
These spheres were constantly moving in the abyss, sometimes flying away, sometimes returning.
The abyss was devoid of water, devoid of spiritual qi, merely filled with these luminescent spheres. The originally silver white surface of the water gradually became clearer under the illumination of the spheres.
“Roar!”
“Howl!”
In the silence and tranquility, earth-shaking roars suddenly sounded as if many terrifying beings were venting their dissatisfaction.
As the sound arose, a surge of tumultuous waves echoed from the abyss. While there was no water, the sound of waves continuously resounded as if blocked by some force on the other side.
The abyss was filled with numerous enormous black shadows. They suddenly rushed forward, crashing against the thick walls of the pond bottom, as if trying to emerge from the abyss to the spiritual pond.
These black shadows seemed like gigantic beasts hidden in the dark, their twisted bodies and peculiar shapes exuding a chilling aura.
Yet, a barely noticeable divine force was suppressing everything here.
A streak of light descended from the sky, and Elder Bai appeared, hastily shouting:
“Hierarch! What happened?”
In the depth of the spiritual pond, a phantom materialized, taking on the form of an old angler.
However, his presence was somewhat oriented towards evil qi, and his eyes were much more ferocious.
“No worries, these sinful beasts are causing trouble again. There is a Demon Emperor who has been cultivating for a hundred thousand years, I do not know what he is up to. But as long as I am here, how can I let them get their way!” Hai Shengming snorted coldly, showing no goodwill toward these creatures.
“Whoosh!”
Zhao Huai and Yu Qinghan rushed there in no time, looking at the split spiritual pond, with a huge dark pit in front of them. An ominous aura emerged from the bottom of the pond.
“Roar!”
Yet another roaring sound, reminiscent of a Primordial Chaos beast.
From those sounds and the black shadows, Zhao Huai could sense a thick murderous intent and evil qi. It was like an eerie forbidden place that had been buried for ten thousand years. The hair-raising strangeness gave him a strong sense of pressure.
“This is the Illusory Southern Sea.”
Zhao Huai looked at the bottom of the pond, saying solemnly.
The bottom of this abyss seems to be the confluence of some primal force; those luminescent spheres…
Why do they look like enormous pairs of eyes!
Their numbers were so large as to make his scalp tingle.
In the dim and ominous light, it felt as though some force was calling out, leading those lonely and twisted black shadows, ready to open an unknown passage at any moment.
All these were filled with a sense of mystery.”Whoosh!”
Suddenly, a faint light radiated from the black ring in Zhao Huai’s hand.
He furrowed his brows, took out the White Jade Imperial Dragon Seal from the ring. The seal transformed into the shape of a treasured mirror, emitting a silver-white glow.
Its light was strikingly similar to the faint light at the entrance of the seal.
Clearly, there was some connection between the two.
“Is this Yan Country’s Ancestral Weapon?
Yu Qinghan asked curiously upon seeing the treasured mirror.
“Yes.”
Zhao Huai nodded: “I guess there must be some inevitable connection between this seal and the Ancestral Weapon.”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
Ever since the Ancestral Weapon appeared, the shadow in the abyss started to hit the walls violently, causing a series of vibrations as if it wanted to rush out from the other side.
Obviously, the vibrations they had felt earlier came from these ominous shadows!
“Crack! ”
The shadow continued to strike the wall, and cracks emerged on the seal!
“You demon, how dare you!”
Hai Shengming shouted in shock and anger.
The spiritual qi moved rapidly in every direction, transforming into a celestial sea of stars that filled the depth of the spiritual pond in the blink of an eye.
But it was just a drop in the bucket.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
The cracks were getting larger.
The appearance of the glowing sphere was becoming clearer.
Those pairs of colourful eyes were the glowing pupils of a bunch of powerful demons.
Savage and deadly.
“Thud!”
A loud sound resonated, and a pair of purple eyes were the first to rush out of the crack!
In an instant.
The wind and clouds suddenly changed in the whole world.
The sky turned dark, and the black clouds gathered!
A mysterious and unknown force appeared from the other side of the abyss.
Splash –
Hai Shengming bit his finger, and his essence and blood merged into the seal. A golden light shone, slowly repairing the seal to ensure that nothing more could escape.
Then, looking at the purple eyes in the sky, he roared with fury, “Demon, get back!”
Thunderous!
The black clouds whirled, and the sound was as heavy as a collapsing mountain, apparently resisting his words.
A pair of monstrous eyes emerged from the clouds, each only as big as a cloud.
Zhao Huai was secretly horrified!
Those eyes, with their horned heads and sinister expressions, black scale armour and vertical purple pupils that seemed to have come from an ancient battlefield. The ancient and mysterious scales were full of cracks and fissures, the two huge whiskers twitched continuously, and there were even golden blood stains on them, seeming to have experienced an inexplicable, massive war.
Zhao Huai looked left and right, feeling something was not right!
This was clearly a black dragon!
He thought, shocked.
The black clouds obscured the sky for a hundred miles around the Limitless Immortal Sect, accompanied by the sound of roaring thunder.
This dragon, as winding as the Great Wall, had emerged from the sky, a black dragon appeared!
“Damn it!”
Hai Shengming was incredibly angry.
He had presided here for hundreds of years – how could a mistake occur now!
If it could wreak havoc in the world, he would be the greatest sinner!
Whoosh –
The black dragon soared in the sky, wind and thunder accompanying it, making a mess, and there was nothing in the world that could stop it.
It crouched on the towering peak. A dragon’s claw alone could crush a thousand-mile Immortal Peak!
Its head in the clouds, its body obscuring the sun and sky, made all the big mountains seem very small before it.
“Roar!!!”
A sky-shattering dragon’s roar echoed as it howled at the sky, spreading towards the surroundings of the Limitless Immortal Sect, as if expressing its dissatisfaction at being confined.
The massive black dragon looked icily at Hai Shengming with its purple vertical pupils, and this aged elder, who had sat watch for a hundred years, suddenly flew out of the Spiritual Mountains!
At this moment.
The treasured mirror in Zhao Huai’s hand emitted an unparalleled light and flew towards the black dragon.
A celestial mirror light stretched out from the mirror, enveloping the entire black dragon!
The purple arcs in the black dragon’s pupils flickered on and off, showing a bit of unwillingness, as if wanting to resist, but still failed.
Its body continually shrank, turned into a streak of light and was drawn into the treasured mirror.
