Chapter 3366 Stripping Away the Heavenly Dao Will Come at a Price
After a few seconds of stunned silence, A-Ling frantically flew around inside the barrier, pounding on the light screen with her little hands, her voice trembling with tears: "Little devil! What are you doing?"
Why are you locking us up?
"Let us go out!"
Hu Xiaoman stood outside the barrier, her eyes lowered, and did not answer.
She simply watched them quietly, her gaze falling on the man who was striking the barrier, his eyes red-rimmed, her eyes brimming with endless bitterness and reluctance.
"Big leaves".
Hu Xiaoman spoke, her voice soft yet penetrating the barrier and clearly reaching everyone's ears, trembling slightly but unwavering in its conviction.
"sorry."
"I want to save the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and I also want to save myself."
"I don't want... you to stop me."
After saying that, Hu Xiaoman took a deep breath and forced herself to look away, no longer looking at the pair of eyes filled with pain and anxiety inside the barrier.
She slowly turned around, her back to the barrier, and sat cross-legged on the cold ground.
He raised both hands, his fingertips flying, forming an ancient and obscure hand seal.
The moment the hand seal was formed, the surrounding air seemed to freeze.
"The Heavenly Dao is stripped away, begin!"
"don't want--!"
Fox Qingye let out a heart-wrenching roar, her voice hoarse, which shook the entire bedchamber.
He went completely mad, raising his hand to summon the Azure Phoenix Divine Sword. The sword erupted with dazzling azure light, carrying earth-shattering power, and frantically slashed at the barrier.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The deafening clang of metal clashing was deafening; each sword strike contained his life's worth of cultivation, and each sword strike carried his despair of wanting to tear everything apart.
However, that seemingly fragile transparent barrier did not show even a single crack.
This is a trap set up by Hu Xiaoman using the power of the Heavenly Dao's origin.
Unless she dies or her soul is destroyed, or the energy of the formation is completely exhausted.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to break through in a short time.
"Xiaoman, stop! Stop right now!"
Fox Qingye's eyes were bloodshot, and tears blurred her vision.
He stared at that slender figure, watching as strange, crimson flames began to rise from her body.
The flames gnawed at her soul like maggots, terrifying him to the core.
Xiaoman is burning with the soul.
"Ah Ling, think of a way quickly, break this formation!" Hu Qingye suddenly turned her head and roared at Ah Ling, her voice filled with despair.
Aling was already in a panic, while Little Fatty pressed his hand against the light screen, desperately channeling golden spiritual energy as if it were free, trying to decipher the patterns of the formation.
"No... This is the Heavenly Dao Origin Formation, connected to the rules of the world... It will take time to unravel it..."
"At least half an incense stick's worth?"
"No, no, no, just one incense stick?"
"It's too late!"
too long!
By then, it will be too late!
Outside the formation, Hu Xiaoman listened to the cries, crashes, and pleas coming from behind her, her heart aching.
Each sound was like a hammer blow, slamming into her heart.
But she didn't turn around.
There's no turning back.
If she loses focus, the formation will be interrupted, all previous efforts will be wasted, and she and the billions of lives in Dongzhou will die.
hold back...
Hu Xiaoman, you must hold back...
She mentally encouraged herself again and again, clenching her teeth until her lips were bitten raw, the taste of blood filling her mouth.
As the incantation continued to circulate, an indescribable, excruciating pain, like a tsunami, instantly swept over her entire body.
It wasn't physical pain, but the excruciating pain of having one's soul torn apart.
It felt as if countless dull knives were slowly sawing open her soul.
The golden halo representing "the Way of Heaven" had to be forcibly stripped from her soul.
"what--!!!"
Hu Xiaoman raised her head and let out an extremely shrill scream.
The sound was sharp and shattered, filled with endless pain, making everyone inside the barrier feel their hearts clench and their livers tremble.
"Xiaoman!" Yu Mengmeng covered her ears, unable to hold back any longer, and collapsed to the ground crying, tears streaming down her face.
Hu Qingye clenched her fists, her eyes bloodshot.
Aling and Xiao Zi hugged each other tightly.
Fine cracks began to appear on Hu Xiaoman's body, like a delicate porcelain doll shattering inch by inch.
Golden light shone through the cracks, gleaming brilliantly.
That was the pure power of the Heavenly Dao, and also the destiny of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
“Stripping…off…”
Hu Xiaoman gritted her teeth, each word seeming to be squeezed out from her throat, carrying a strong metallic taste of blood.
She raised her hands, trembling, and plunged them into her own chest—
Not the chest of the body, but the chest of the soul.
Her hands gripped tightly the golden ball of light inside her body, which was struggling wildly and was already tightly bound by the black soul seed.
The polluted origin of the Heavenly Dao is also a breeding ground for the parasitic soul seed.
"Get out here...!"
Hu Xiaoman roared with all his might, his voice so hoarse it was almost inaudible.
The veins on her arm bulged, and she pulled sharply outward—
"Fuck-"
A piercing sound, like coarse cloth being ripped apart, sent chills down one's spine.
That ball of light, interwoven with gold and black, was forcibly pulled from the depths of her soul and suspended in mid-air.
The golden primal power and the black soul seed were still fiercely entangled and tearing at each other.
Without the support of the Heavenly Dao's origin, Hu Xiaoman's body instantly collapsed onto the cold ground like a withered leaf that had been drained of all its strength, making a dull thud.
Her breath was extremely faint at this moment, like a candle flickering in the wind, about to be extinguished completely in the next second.
"Xiaoman!!!"
Seeing this scene, Hu Qingye completely broke down.
He staggered back two steps and knelt down in front of the barrier with a thud.
"Please... don't die..."
He lowered his head, his shoulders trembled violently, and his voice was choked with sobs.
"You said you would marry me... You said you would be with me for life... You said it..."
In mid-air, the primordial essence of the Heavenly Dao that had been stripped away was trembling and struggling violently.
Deprived of the nourishment of its host's soul, the black soul seed seemed to sense the crisis and began to fight back frantically, turning into countless black threads, trying to burrow back into Hu Xiaoman's body.
Hu Xiaoman, lying on the ground, mustered her last bit of strength from somewhere.
She suddenly opened her eyes, and those eyes, which were originally clear and bright like autumn water, had become dull and lifeless, and nothing could be reflected in them anymore.
As ancient texts say, there will be a price to pay for deviating from the natural order.
Her eyesight is rapidly deteriorating.
The world became blurry and distorted in her eyes, until finally only a gray shadow remained.
She could no longer see the despairing face inside the barrier, nor any color in this world.
