Chapter 487: Chapter 481: A Fall of Ten Thousand Miles
"Zhu Xiao, be careful, move away quickly!"
Wei Lianchuan, who was directing the formation, looked up just once and his face changed dramatically. He let out a thunderous shout!
However, compared to the rolling thunder coming from the blood-red brilliance above his head, his voice was too faint, almost inaudible. Zhu Xiao at the formation’s center faintly felt like someone was calling out to him, but the noise above was too loud, and he subconsciously looked up.
Boom!
The moment Zhu Xiao looked up, he saw a streak of blood-light descending from the sky, instantly magnifying in his eyes. Faintly, Zhu Xiao could see a human shape, and then, he knew no more.
Bang!
The blood-light suddenly slammed onto the ground, causing the entire Dark Secret Realm to shake violently. The blood-light immediately burst into a cloud.
"Zhu Xiao!"
Wei Lianchuan roared in anger, but even as he roared, he had no choice but to retreat with the tide. Moreover, with blood-light scattering in all directions, his sight was as good as blind, even his Divine Soul Sensing was affected.
All that could be heard was the unending sound of heavy objects striking one after another before everything faded to numbness.
In an instant, the blood-light dissipated, and a scene that bewildered Wei Lianchuan and left Sha Congqian in shocking disbelief abruptly unfolded before their eyes.
Right where the blood-light had fallen, Zhu Xiao’s figure had disappeared. It wasn’t just within the range of the formation—zooming to the limits of their Eye Power, they could not find any trace of their sect brother Zhu Xiao.
Only a pool of bloodied muck splattered around the vicinity remained.
In other words, their fellow sect brother Zhu Xiao had been completely smashed into dregs by that blood-light!
Not only that, but most of the nine members who were deploying the formation were also broken and twisted, fallen haphazardly around the center where the blood-light had struck, with the most severely injured one’s face pale as golden paper and blood spewing from his mouth, even with bits of internal organs faintly ejecting.
They were, after all, Martial Artists of the Soul Sea Realm. Their Acquired Spiritual Bodies had already reached Great Accomplishment. If not, they would be done for too!
But that wasn’t what shocked Wei Lianchuan and the others.
What shocked them was that there was now an extra person in the space, a young man with delicate features, who seemed to be around the age of twenty. But fatally, this person... was still alive!
He was currently stretching his body in extreme pain, as if he was suffering immensely!
Clearly, this person must have come down with the blood-light, but that blood brilliance had directly turned Zhu Xiao, a Fourth Stage Soul Sea Realm Martial Artist, into a pile of flesh and gravely injured countless others, yet this person was alive!
However, the most eerie part was not these details.
It was the location of this person!
Now, Wei Lianchuan understood where the thudding noises he had heard had come from. They must be the sounds of this person falling sharply from above, constantly bouncing and falling again.
Because of this, the person who fell from the sky was pushed to the edge of the thick, pale blood-colored light screen.
This seemed normal!
But fatally, one of the young man’s feet was extending into, then retracting from, the pale blood-colored light screen at will.
Stretching it in, pulling it out in agony.
Kicking it in, withdrawing it back in pain, accompanied by the cracking sounds of bones.
This made Wei Lianchuan and Sha Congqian’s eyes pop out of their sockets!
What was that pale blood-colored light screen?
It was the Guardian Light Screen of the Secret Realm of Demon Souls. Only by breaking that light screen could they hope to obtain the treasures that might exist behind it.
To break that light screen, even with all eleven of their brothers attacking at full force without any disturbance, it would still take at least half a quarter-hour.
Under normal circumstances, they had to split their forces in half, with one half on guard and the other half fully focused on breaking through the light screen. In such cases, it would take at least 15 minutes or more.
But now, this young man’s foot was entering and exiting at will?
As their eyes snapped back, a thought simultaneously surfaced in the minds of Wei Lianchuan and Sha Congqian. Could it be that the impact of the blood brilliance had rendered the Guardian Light Screen ineffective?
At the instant their eyes bulged, a pair of captivating almond eyes was also staring dumbfoundedly at the foot freely moving in and out of the light screen. The owner of these eyes was none other than the woman known to all as the demoness Luo Yingzi.
But at that moment, to avoid the impact of the blood brilliance that fell from the sky, Luo Yingzi’s graceful body was pressed against the Guardian Light Screen, and she was fully aware that the light screen was not compromised at all!
This sight made Luo Yingzi’s almond eyes flicker with curious light!
Almost as if responding to a signal, the demoness Luo Yingzi, Wei Lianchuan, and Silver Spear Sha Congqian moved simultaneously. Wei Lianchuan and Silver Spear Sha Congqian split up, one rushing straight towards the demoness Luo Yingzi, and the other towards the Guardian Light Screen.
As for Luo Yingzi, her actions were entirely different from those of Wei Lianchuan and Sha Congqian.
With a slight pounce, she wrapped her arms around Ye Zhen, who was still painfully stretching his muscles and bones, and gently rolled toward the Guardian Light Screen.
"No good!"
Seeing Luo Yingzi’s enigmatic action, the quick-witted Wei Lianchuan suddenly shouted out loud, and with a swift turn, dived lightning-fast towards Ye Zhen.
Pu pu!
In the next moment, both Wei Lianchuan and Sha Congqian were like stickers, plastered on the light screen because they couldn’t stop in time, impacting it fiercely with their faces seemingly misshapen.
Their speed had been so fast just now that their direct hit against the light screen made it seem like their features had been deformed.
At the same time, the deviless Luo Yingzi, who had darted into the guardian light screen, looked at the two baffled men and let out a snicker, "Two fools, stunned, aren’t you?"
In fact, not only were Wei Lianchuan and Sha Congqian stunned, but so was Ye Zhen!
Ye Zhen, who had been trapped for a long time in the blood vortex, hadn’t expected to fall straight from the sky and end up battered and bruised. Not only was his Red Jade Spirit Armor shattered, but even his Red Jade Battle Body, which had achieved great accomplishment, was nearly shattered as well.
Most of the joints throughout his body were dislocated, all of his bones were cracked from the fall, and his five internal organs and six hollow organs were in turmoil, each displaced. It was only because Ye Zhen possessed the Red Jade Battle Body that he survived; otherwise, that fall would have cost him 90% of his life.
Just now, Ye Zhen was struggling enormously to stretch his body, trying to realign his joints as quickly as possible to regain some ability to defend himself. Before he could completely reset his joints, he felt a fragrant breeze against his body and a soft, fragrant figure lay on top of him.
Even though he was in an unknown and dangerous place, this unexpected encounter still made Ye Zhen involuntarily turn his eyes towards the delicate body on top of him.
What met his eyes was a face cold as ice but with a hint of devilish charm at the corners of her brows and lips. Her features were exquisite, and her black hair, carelessly tied up with hints of red, was wildly attractive.
After just one glance, that wild yet exquisite face revealed a hint of a smile, but within that smile lay a deeply hidden murderous intent.
"Do you find me beautiful...." Luo Yingzi suddenly asked with a smile.
Ye Zhen subconsciously nodded slightly, and murderous intent burst forth from Luo Yingzi’s face.
"Since that’s the case, then die for me!"
Her fingers were like swords, and the Gang Qi on her fingertips was sharp and fierce, stabbing straight towards Ye Zhen’s eyes. If it were to penetrate, it would go straight through his brain, and Ye Zhen would undoubtedly die!
In an instant, Thunder Light silently surged into Ye Zhen’s palm. Although his joints had been shattered countless times, the meridians within his body were exceedingly intact.
"Hmph, considering you still have your uses, I’ll spare your life for now," Luo Yingzi flirtatiously said as she shifted her gaze, and her sword-like fingers dissipated. Her rapid change of attitude left Ye Zhen astonished.
The Thunder Light of Fright that was about to burst out hesitated for a moment and dissipated without a sound.
With the location and strength unknown, and his body not yet recovered, it was not suitable for Ye Zhen to make enemies. If the Thunder Light of Fright did not kill with one strike, Ye Zhen, with his body severely damaged and his internal organs injured, might not necessarily be able to defeat the deviless Luo Yingzi before him.
Of course, what was most important was that Luo Yingzi exuded an aura of the Peak of the Fifth Stage of the Soul Sea Realm, which was almost comparable to Liao Feibai’s.
Meanwhile, Wei Lianchuan and Sha Congqian, who were plastered to the guardian light screen like pancakes, began angrily cursing at Luo Yingzi and Ye Zhen.
The guardian light screen may have been thick, but their voices could still be somewhat clearly heard, thanks in no small part to the martial artists’ keen hearing.
"Deviless, get out here! If you have the guts, fight this old man with the Silver Spear for three hundred rounds!"
"Boy, if I were you and had any sense, I would come out of the guardian light screen right now, lead us inside, and all will be settled! Otherwise, once you leave this Secret Realm of Demon Souls, there will be no place for you in this vast world!" Wei Lianchuan’s sinister voice rose.
"Right, boy, come out right now, take us inside, and you might have a way to survive. Otherwise...."
"Otherwise what?"
"Do you think you’re capable?"
"I’ll give you an hour, but even the trash from Green Sun Palace likely won’t be able to break through this Guardian Light Screen!"
Ye Zhen, hearing the threats from Wei Lianchuan and Sha Congqian, didn’t care at all; what caught his attention was the information revealed between their words.
The Secret Realm of Demon Souls, Green Sun Palace, including Deviless Luo Yingzi, Wei Lianchuan, Sha Congqian, and the others, were all either at the Fifth Stage or the Peak of the Soul Sea Realm.
Yet in the Black Dragon Domain, aside from the Battlefield of Demon Souls, there definitely wasn’t another Secret Realm of Demon Souls, let alone a Sect called Green Sun Palace, to say nothing of three young Martial Artists with Cultivation that soared to the Fifth Stage of the Soul Sea Realm.
If these three appeared in the Black Dragon Domain, they would absolutely be top-tier prodigies, renowned throughout the entire Black Dragon Domain, and Ye Zhen would have no way of not knowing about them!
But now, they had all just appeared before him.
In a startling revelation, Ye Zhen suddenly understood that the blood-colored vortex had likely carried him through space, arriving at another domain!
It’s just that he didn’t know how far he was from the Black Dragon Domain, whether he was still within the other domains of the True Profound Continent, or perhaps even beyond the True Profound Continent?
But even crossing a single domain meant a distance of a million miles.
This fall could mean a million or even ten million miles, giving Ye Zhen the surreal feeling of being in a dream!
"Boom, keep hammering! Everyone get up, use all your strength to hammer, we must break through this Guardian Light Screen in the shortest time!" The Silver Spear Sha Congqian, insulted by Deviless Luo Yingzi, burst out in rage at the Green Sun Palace Martial Artists who were scattered and disoriented behind him.
While roaring, he thrust his silver spear with lightning speed, piercing the Guardian Light Screen with hundreds of Flood Dragon-like silver spear lights in an instant.
However, the Guardian Light Screen merely dispersed into more than a dozen ripples, with the faint blood-colored brilliance hardly diminishing at all.
Wei Lianchuan wasn’t that reckless; he stared at Ye Zhen intently from across the Guardian Light Screen, his voice firm and somber.
"Brother, believe me, coming out from inside the Guardian Light Screen right now is your best choice...."
"Dream on if you think he’s going to help you!"
"What’s your name? Just listen to big sister obediently, and I’ll give you benefits beyond your wildest dreams...."
The demoness Luo Yingzi smiled seductively at Ye Zhen, her fingers beckoning silkily, then suddenly, like a bolt of lightning, she tried to seal Ye Zhen’s Cultivation by aiming at his Dantian acupuncture point, her coquettish face still smiling.
Just as Luo Yingzi’s finger was about to make contact, a huge dark shadow suddenly rose from behind her, causing her finger to halt abruptly.
"Miss Yingzi, if I were you, I’d stand still...." Ye Zhen’s voice suddenly rang out.
Outside the Guardian Light Screen, the eyes of Wei Lianchuan and Sha Congqian suddenly widened!(To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it at Qidian (qidian.com). Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to continue reading.)
