Chapter 269 The Death Struggle of the Yuanming Realm
Chapter 269 The Death Struggle of the Yuanming Realm
Yan Chengxue looked at Zhu He, who was walking over with his head down, and then at Xue Lan, who was happily putting spirit stones into her storage bag.
"You two aren't setting me up, are you?"
Xue Lan shook her head: "Absolutely not."
In the time it takes to say two sentences, Zhu He had already walked up to the group and stood silently behind Xue Lan.
Yan Chengxue fell silent. Xue Lan remained silent for a moment before suddenly speaking:
"Oh dear, who is this? Isn't this my good junior brother who had six ribs broken and then ran away in the desolate region?"
The woman emphasized the last three words so much that Zhu He felt as if his senior sister wanted to bite him to death.
Xue Lan slowly raised her hand, and Zhu He immediately understood, extending his wrist, where the spirit-splitting ring was intact.
They remained obedient and didn't dare to say a word.
After examining the spirit-splitting ring, Xue Lan decided not to make things difficult for Zhu He. After all, he was a child she had raised for a long time, and it was already quite good that he had survived to come to her in this extremely dangerous battlefield.
The woman pointed to an empty stool on the side: "Sit."
Zhu He sat down stiffly, each step like that of a demon who had just transformed into human form, or a stone man who had just begun to move.
"Who is guarding the desolate region now?" Xue Lan asked.
“It’s Auntie, Yuecheng, Senior Sister Yin, and Junior Sister Long,” Zhu He answered earnestly.
Xue Lan rested her chin on her hand and pondered for a moment before asking again, "What moves have the Demon Clan made lately?"
Speaking of the demons of the Desolate Region, Zhu He's face regained some color: "The demons of the Desolate Region have recently undergone a major change, all of them have retreated to the depths of the Desolate Region. The elders believe there is a trap involved, and now the Immortal Sect's forces and the Sheng Yu Army are stationed at Qingfeng Terrace, which is 1,200 miles away from Luoxia Mountain."
Xue Lan nodded: "It's always good to be cautious."
"Any news from the demon race?"
Seeing that Xue Lan didn't blame him, Zhu He became bolder: "On the demon race's side, the elusive high priest of the Kongyu clan has finally emerged from seclusion. He said that after a while, he and the fox clan's Tushan senior will deliver the demon race's sacred book to the desolate region."
Xue Lan suddenly became interested: "Why did you send over the sacred book of the demon race?"
"Senior sister doesn't know, but not long after you left Luoxia Mountain, the Desolate Domain Demon Clan angered some powerful beings in the Upper Realm for some reason. Overnight, most of them were cut down by a rain of swords. It just so happened that the High Priest of the Sky Fish Clan saw it."
Xue Lan quickly extracted what she wanted from this passage.
A powerful being from the upper realm?
Rain of swords?
No way……
"After that rain of swords, the land of death of the demon race in the desolate region was covered with frost, which did not melt away for several years."
Xue Lan's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, died. He really couldn't think of anyone else who could describe it this way.
Zhu He looked at his senior sister, whose face was clouded with worry, as if her time was coming to an end.
The young man asked naively, "Senior sister, are you feeling unwell?"
Xue Lan said, "No..."
I just felt like I was about to die.
It turns out that Jin Guang had already been to the lower realm, and her body was most likely in her hands. She had taken him back to the upper realm.
It's just a pity about He Zhui.
But this is for the best, since it has fallen into the hands of our own people and we don't have to worry about bearing unnecessary consequences.
“Since the situation at Luoxia Mountain is unstable, I will take you to see that senior tonight. After that, we will set off for Qingshuitai with Junjun and the others,” Xue Lan suddenly said to Yan Chengxue.
Yan Chengxue looked at the expression on Xue Lan's face and knew that the situation was urgent, so she nodded solemnly.
That evening, at midnight.
It was a new moon that night. Looking up at the sky from the Thunder and Kui Formation, the moon appeared cold and white, like a curved blade. Yan Chengxue led Xue Lan to the heart of the great formation, hidden behind layers of arrays.
Master Chen went to the desolate region, and now the one guarding the Thunder Kui Formation is Yan Chengxue's martial uncle, Master Su Zhe. Xue Lan guessed that Yan Chengxue had given prior notice. The middle-aged man neither stopped the two nor said anything.
The two reached the center of the formation without incident, and Xue Lan released two small spiders from the Chonglou Illusionary Treasure Map. These two little creatures already knew about today's mission.
Accompanying my elderly mother in acting.
Two small spiders stood on either side of Xue Lan, like guards. Xue Lan turned to Yan Chengxue behind her and said...
"Stand back a bit."
Yan Chengxue obediently stepped back, and after standing still, she saw two snow-white orbs of light appear above the heads of the two little spiders.
The two orbs of light slowly flew towards the center of the array. Yan Chengxue was so engrossed in watching that she didn't notice Xue Lan flicking out a ball of snow-white soul power from her drooping fingertip.
The soul power mingled with the two snow-white orbs of light in front of him and fell together into the center of the formation.
Yan Chengxue saw a blinding light appear in front of her, illuminating the entire cave.
At the same time, the Thunder Kui Formation on the ground suddenly burst into a burst of lightning, illuminating the darkness of Luoxia Mountain.
Yan Chengxue slowly opened her eyes and saw that the center of the formation was filled with wandering lightning. Xue Lan was standing to the side, looking at the man in front of her.
The middle-aged man, dressed in a dark blue shirt, with his hair casually draped behind him, smiled the moment he saw Xue Lan.
"What a coincidence, little silver wolf." Xue Lan heard Kui Shengge's voice transmission.
The woman bowed to Kui Shengge and said, "It's not fate. I've come to Luoxia Mountain this time because I have a favor to ask."
Kui Shengge looked at the girl in front of her, then at Yan Chengxue beside her.
He pointed a finger: "For him? What are you going to do?"
Yan Chengxue took a few steps forward, stood in front of Kui Shengge, and spoke:
"Senior, I have come to study formations."
Kui Shengge glanced at the young man in front of her, a hint of surprise in her eyes: "I'll take him in."
Xue Lan was somewhat surprised that things would go so smoothly.
"Why is she like this? This child has talent." Kui Shenge chuckled, looking at Xue Lan as she spoke slowly:
"Are there a lot of geniuses from the Yuanming realm?"
"No, it's that there are too many geniuses in the Yuanming Realm!"
When Xue Lan heard Kui Shengge say this, she vaguely understood something.
First came Ji Jinjin and Min Chang, who possessed the Heavenly Spiritual Root; then there was Zhu He, who was born with sword bones; Yan Chengxue, a genius in array formations; Long Siyin, who reshaped her Dao Heart; and Zhu Lingzhi of the Wind Clan…
Lei Chuxi from the Upper Realm, Lin Buyu, even the Lin family's proud daughter whom they had never met, and finally, Lian Chuan...
Like bamboo shoots after a spring rain, these geniuses have emerged in droves over the last fifty years.
It was like the sky was full of stars before the apocalypse!
It's just like……
It was like Yuanmingjie was making a huge gamble, exhausting all his strength.
It was indeed a high-stakes gamble.
Xue Lan bowed to Kui Shengge and said, "Thank you for your guidance, senior."
Kui Shengge looked at Xue Lan and transmitted her voice:
"Little Silver Wolf, he doesn't even respect the Heavenly Dao of the Yuanming Realm. He does whatever he wants with his own soul and is even studying the spacetime technique that the Heavenly Dao knows will explode. He's like a little madman."
"I believe you. For the next five hundred years, as long as I, Kui Shengge, am here, the demon race will never be allowed to enter the territories of the human and demon races!"
Kui Shengge's brows were gentle, and her eyes were full of anticipation:
"In the time to come, please lead the stars of the Yuanming Realm, and the demon race and mortals of the Yuanming Realm, to seek... the path to salvation!"
Xue Lan bowed again:
"Xue Lan will certainly live up to your expectations!"
