Chapter 7 The Spear of Hades
Chapter 7 The Spear of Hades
"Fellow Daoist Wu Guang, you're putting me in a difficult position."
Yuan Qingsu suppressed her emotions and said patiently, "These people are destined to be with my Yao Guang Holy Land, and we must bring them back."
Life is the greatest miracle in the world, and He will not take it away easily unless necessary.
"Difficult to do?"
Wu Guang chuckled, his handsome face revealing undisguised impatience: "If it's too difficult, then don't do it, errand boy. Don't test my patience. You don't have much time left. To tell you the truth, I've taken a liking to this group of people. The Buddhist artifacts they have, and their origins, both intrigue me."
"I'm just openly robbing you!"
"Hehe, a group of ordinary old people who came out of the desolate forbidden land have all had their sea of suffering activated. There are even a few teenagers among them who have not been deprived of their years. Perhaps they have eaten the fruits from those nine holy mountains? I must take such people with me."
"Why bother talking to them so much? Senior Brother Wu, just take action."
Among the dozen or so people who came with Wu Guang, a young man with extraordinary cultivation but ordinary appearance and dark, charcoal-like skin walked over. His eyes lingered greedily on Weiwei as he said, "They're just two menial disciples. What difference would it make if we kept them all? If they're careful, the Holy Land won't be able to find us."
"Haha, Zhang Lei is right."
"Recently, I've been practicing under the intense sunlight, and my Yang energy is indeed too strong."
"This desolate wilderness is suitable, but I think we should let Senior Brother Wu go first!"
A dozen or so young people started making a ruckus, teasing and joking while spreading out in several directions to deliberately affect the two men's mood and prevent them from leaving on their own.
What a bunch of scum...
Yuan Qingsu and Weiwei's expressions darkened, and Ye Fan, Pang Bo, and the others behind them also felt a sense of foreboding. They never expected to encounter such a group of thugs before even truly stepping into this mysterious and unpredictable world.
At this moment, some of their fantasies about "immortals" shattered.
It is foreseeable that if they are taken away by such a group of people, their fate will definitely not be ideal.
At that moment, the wind on the desolate land quietly stopped.
Wu Guang's robes moved without wind, fluttering and rustling, and a fierce yang energy emanated from him, causing the surrounding temperature to rise sharply.
He rose into the air, looking down at Yuan Qingsu, his voice indifferent: "I told you to leave earlier, but you didn't. Now that I've lost my patience, you really aren't leaving."
As he spoke, a pure white yang fish and a pure black yin fish leaped up from behind him, their yin and yang intertwining to create a Dao diagram, surging with powerful energy.
The aura of the perfect fifth level of the Dao Palace flowed.
Wu Guang walked through the world like a god wielding power. A black sword and a white sword appeared in his hands almost simultaneously, their swords flashing as if they would slice through the sky at any moment.
"Servant, give it your all. If you can give me some enjoyment, I might remember you." Every step he took in the void felt like a heavy blow to everyone's hearts, making them feel oppressed.
Ye Fan and Pang Bo's faces were tense.
The remaining group of elderly men and women were even more exhausted, collapsing to the ground one by one.
Weiwei, who was at the center of Wu Guang's aura lock, also turned slightly pale. The other party was really strong. His arrogance was truly based on his power and recklessness. Even with her Immortal Spirit Eye, it was difficult for her to bridge the gap in cultivation level at the fifth level of the Dao Palace.
She never expected that going out to carry out such a small task would lead to such a predicament.
But right now, regret and resentment are superfluous emotions. The only right thing to do is to fight to the death alongside Senior Brother Yuan. With her eyesight and Senior Brother Yuan's special abilities, the combination of the two might just be able to carve out a bloody path.
Considering the enemy's superior numbers, it's very likely that we'll ultimately fail, but at least we tried.
Moreover, Vivi knew that she would never allow herself to be defiled by such a group of people. With her last bit of divine power remaining, she would use it to incinerate herself...
Amidst a whirlwind of thoughts, Weiwei turned her head to look at Yuan Qingsu, whose expression remained calm and indifferent. Seeing the sunlight illuminating his profile, even in this dire situation, her heart couldn't help but flutter slightly. She couldn't help but softly part her red lips and say, "Senior Brother Yuan..."
"Um?"
Yuan Qingsu didn't turn around to look at her. Her dark eyes reflected Wu Guang's relentless advance. She raised her long, slender, and fair right hand and made a loose clenching motion at her side. The movement seemed slow but was actually fast, decisive and firm.
A torrent of clear light burst forth from his palm, spreading outwards from a single point and solidifying into a spear.
In that frozen moment, the clear light dimmed, turning into the color of inkstone, shrouded in a strong aura of hell.
This is not a divine power of the Yao Guang Holy Land, but a unique skill accompanying the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Technique—"Spear of the Underworld God"!
Yuan Qingsu stood holding a spear, like an ancient god descending to earth. He then raised the spear high in front of Wu Guang, aiming the tip at his brow, as if drawing a powerful bow or holding a grand ceremony. He pulled back his elbow, gathered his strength, and then threw the spear.
"boom!"
The spear traced the path of fate, colliding with Wu Guang's black and white swords. The rampant hellish aura transformed into a giant demon's head in the void, which opened its mouth and swallowed the yin-yang symbol, obliterating it completely.
"You..." Wu Guang looked surprised. He had expected his opponent to be very strong, so he used all his strength from the start to prevent being overturned.
Unexpectedly, this young man was so fierce. Despite only being at the second level of the Dao Palace Realm, his combat strength was even stronger than Li Rui's!
He had already given it his all, but the other side seemed to have only used a fraction of his strength.
This is the potential of a holy son!
"die!"
Yuan Qingsu's divine power surged, and he drew a spear from the void, imbued it with the power of the Four Symbols, and threw it out.
Wu Guang could barely defend himself against the first spear, but the second spear fell and cleanly pierced through his head.
Boom!
The spear of Hades, carrying his bewildered and terrified corpse, crashed down from mid-air into the overgrown weeds.
Thump, thump, thump...
Yuan Qingsu made a series of moves, and one after another, jet-black spears of the underworld appeared in front of him, neatly arranged beside his hand. He held each spear in his hand and threw it out with a natural and freehand posture. The trajectory of the falling spears resembled the beautiful hair of the girl Weiwei being blown by the wind, graceful and serene, yet containing a power that made people's hearts tremble.
The dozen or so teenagers who had surrounded Wu Guang and the two tried to run but had no time to do so. They were pierced by the Spear of the Underworld as soon as they turned around and fell to the ground like dumplings, instantly killed.
Crimson spreads, and the wild grass drinks in the fresh blood.
Within a dozen or so breaths, a pile of corpses appeared all around.
The battle was too fast from start to finish; it was so fast that it could hardly be called a battle, but rather a one-sided massacre.
【Rule Three for Reincarnators】Evil begets sin, and the price of sin is death.
Vivi's eyes widened involuntarily at the sight, her rosy lips almost forming an "O" shape. Just moments before, she had thought a bloody, deadly battle was about to unfold...
"Junior sister, what did you want to say to me just now?"
After doing all this, Yuan Qingsu turned his head slightly and asked, his high nose and lips appearing even more lustrous in the pale golden sunlight.
Weiwei was stunned for a moment, and at that moment she suddenly understood what it meant for the sun to be shining brightly.
The female cultivators in the world of Shrouding the Heavens all possess a reserved and demure nature that is deeply ingrained in their bones.
When facing the opposite sex, one should either remain expressionless and unresponsive, like a stone statue.
Unlike Ji Ziyue in the original storyline, who harbored a deep but unrequited love and could never express it, even as her wedding was just around the corner, she couldn't believe it.
Few women would express themselves so boldly and passionately.
So even though he was so dazzling in Weiwei's eyes at that moment, and at this moment she had no world in her eyes but only him, she would only say that the sunlight fell on him that day.
She felt that Yuan Qingsu possessed a terrifyingly alluring charm that made people fall for her.
"No, it's nothing."
Weiwei's pretty face twitched slightly, but she said calmly, "Senior brother, your move is really powerful."
"Um."
Yuan Qingsu took out a jade bottle from her bosom, communicated with the [Gate of Ten Thousand Gates] in her mind, and as she drew a wisp of clear light down from it, she brought her lips to the mouth of the bottle and swallowed the contents in one bite, sealing all the fragrant aroma between her lips and teeth.
The ceremony is complete.
