Open the formation with life
He glanced around the hall, and the other immortal servants immediately understood and bowed and left.
"If the seal is truly broken today..." The Heavenly Lord pondered for a moment, as if contemplating something, before finally promising him, "I promise you, I will spare her life."
After receiving a positive response, the worry on Fengshen's brow dissipated. He was filled with gratitude and bowed deeply, "Thank you, Heavenly Lord, for your grace."
The seal's unusual appearance caused a commotion throughout the Underworld. All the immortal soldiers, led by the God of War, were poised for action. However, the seal suddenly stopped flickering and remained silent, leaving the immortals anxious.
Within the magic circle, snake and scorpion venom corroded Yiwu's will. She vomited poisonous blood, lost consciousness, and collapsed to the ground. The cat demon she had transformed into faded, revealing her true form.
Seeing this, the black dragon quickly stretched out its claws and tried to wake her up.
He could feel that the seal would be opened soon, just a little bit, the last bit. If she died now, all the efforts would be wasted.
"Little thing, wake up quickly," the black dragon was restless, the strength under its claws gradually increasing, "You can't die now, wake up quickly!"
Yiwu's breathing was extremely weak, and her consciousness seemed to be sinking in the deep sea, and she could not hear clearly what was happening around her.
She seemed to see God the Father and return to her carefree childhood.
Although she didn't have freedom, she had the Father God's love and Liu Yu accompanying her as she grew up, so she wasn't lonely...
It’s so nice. I really want to stay here forever.
With a "hiss," she felt a sharp pain in her shoulder. She forced herself back to consciousness and heard the black dragon calling her, "Wake up! The seal is about to be opened. Just hold on a little longer."
seal?
Yes, the seal. She is opening the Ji Ming Seal. She cannot die yet.
Yi Wu forced herself to open her eyes. When she got up from the ground, the wound on her shoulder was pulled. The pain made her break out in cold sweats, and her mind became much clearer.
The black dragon retracted its claws, inevitably feeling guilty, "I couldn't wake you up, and I accidentally hit you too hard."
Who knew that her body was so thin, but a slight scratch from the claws left a wound so deep that the bone was visible.
"No problem, thank you." Yi Wu's words were barely audible as she staggered back to her feet. She formed seals with her hands once more and continued to infuse the magic circle with power.
Blood dripped down from the fingertips, forming a small puddle on the ground, and then flowed along the ground towards the magic circle. The whole cave was filled with the smell of blood.
The black dragon looked down at her, feeling the formation's restraints disappearing at an accelerated rate. He felt joy in his heart, but also a little sad. "You risked your life to open the formation. What was your intention?"
"If I'm not mistaken, the poison has invaded your bones and you can't survive. Is it worth it?"
I guess they were injured before coming here, but they still opened the formation regardless of their own lives. It is impossible for ordinary people to do this. They just want to survive.
The three words "can't survive" still made Yi Wu's breathing pause, but after a moment, she concentrated again and accelerated the injection of magic power into the magic circle.
For a long time, Hei Jiao thought she would not respond, but he heard Yi Wu's relieved tone, "For the people, for the world, of course it's worth it."
The immortals wanted to go home, the demons wanted to go home too, and mortals needed the immortals' protection. Everything should return to the right track. If she really died here today, it would be a worthy death.
A faint crackling sound echoed from within her body, and the seal placed on her celestial bone by the Father God cracked ever so slightly. Demonic energy rushed in, breaking through the seal and staining her celestial bone red, then black.
Yiwu opened her mouth and sprayed out blood mist, which sprinkled on the black dragon's tail.
Without caring about protecting her immortal bones, Yi Wu steadied her body and used up her last bit of strength to inject all the magic power in her body into the magic circle.
Finally, the formation moved at will, the intricate patterns on the ground spinning rapidly before suddenly stopping. A green light exploded, illuminating the entire cave as bright as day. The chains restraining the black dragon shattered into dust with a clang, vanishing into thin air.
The cave lost its light source and became pitch black in an instant. Yi Wu collapsed to the ground exhausted.
The formation was destroyed, and the ground began to shake violently. She heard the black dragon touch the ground with all four claws, stretching its muscles and bones, shaking off the dust on its body, and preparing to leave.
"Please... take me..."
Yi Wu was no longer conscious, and she only remembered that she had to return to the top of the cloud before her identity was exposed.
Her hands were stained with blood, her immortal bones were destroyed, and she was no longer the pure and flawless immortal Guiyun she once was. It was impossible for her to return to the Father God.
Forget it, since I can’t survive anyway, I might as well leave this broken body to the demons to vent their anger. Dying on the top of the clouds can be considered a return to one’s roots.
Yi Wu's mind was in a trance, and she didn't know what she had said. The black dragon grabbed her with one claw and hauled her onto its back, then burst through the cave and flew into the sky.
The strong wind made people a little more sober, and Yi Wu forced herself to look back.
Above the abyss, the sealing shield slowly began to dissipate. Countless white figures, armed with weapons, flew out from the abyss, heading straight for the summit of the clouds.
Unable to hold on any longer, she fainted completely.
The black dragon's heart tightened, and he flew at high speed, reaching the top of the cloud in a moment. He followed the smell and sent Yiwu back to the Jiyu Palace.
He carefully placed the person on the ground, raised his claws to pull out the scales on his chest, and placed them on Yiwu's forehead, turning them into a mark to hide him.
"I can never repay you for saving my life." The black dragon leaned closer to Yi Wu, carefully memorizing her appearance and scent. "If you survive, you can call me by your scales in the future."
"My name is Su Yi."
Regardless of whether Yiwu heard it or not, Hei Jiao got up and left after giving his instructions.
He had just escaped and was seriously injured. It was not the best time to seek revenge on Jiufang Jie and Jiufang Mingyuan. He should go back and recuperate for the time being, and it would not be too late to seek revenge later.
After the black dragon flew away, the Jiyu Palace was deserted, leaving Yiwu lying alone under the big locust tree, covered in scars and in a state of tatters, with no breath to breathe.
The world seemed to become extremely quiet, and the breeze blew through the treetops, making the leaves rustle.
A leaf fluttered down and covered Yiwu's eyes, but her eyelids didn't even twitch, and she looked lifeless.
…
Not long ago, the Snake Queen could not withstand the burning of the demon fire. After handing over the clean water, the demon fire in the forbidden area was quickly extinguished, and the demons quickly cleaned up the ruins.
Jiufang Mingyuan swept his sleeves, immediately clearing a path and leading the high priest in quickly.
The forbidden area is an important place for the demons. After Shao Zun and the high priest entered, other demons stayed outside and did not dare to set foot.
They only knew that the Demon Lord was in seclusion inside, and had no idea what the secret was. In any case, the high priest strictly forbade them to set foot inside, and no one dared to spy.
Passing through layers of ruins, the scorched buildings emitted a pungent odor. Black smoke filled the air, and Jiufang Mingyuan waved it away in disdain.
After crossing almost the entire palace, the two stopped in front of a wall. The high priest reached out and opened a hidden mechanism on the wall. The mural opened up, revealing a secret room behind.
The cold air hit them in the face, and frost suddenly formed on the eyebrows of Jiufang Mingyuan and the high priest. It turned out that the world inside was completely different from the world outside.
The secret room was shrouded in white mist. In the middle stood an ice coffin. Inside lay a man in dark blue clothes, his eyes tightly closed and his breathing weakly.
The high priest quickly approached the ice coffin, carefully inspected it, and then felt relieved, patting his chest. "It almost burned the secret room, but fortunately the fire was put out in time, and Your Majesty is fine."
Jiufang Mingyuan was about to go in and take a look, but just as he raised his foot, he seemed to realize something and closed his eyes.
In his mind, another pair of eyes transmitted the scene of the seal of the Underworld being broken, and the immortals were flying out of the Underworld one after another.
With a stern look on his face, Jiufang Mingyuan disappeared at the door of the secret room and reappeared standing outside the forbidden area.
"Young Master! This servant has something to report."
The demon tribe was defeated, the fire in the forbidden area was extinguished, and Qingpu finally found an opportunity. She ran to Jiufang Mingyuan and complained to the magic doctors, "I was ordered to ask the magic doctors to heal the saint, but they disobeyed..."
Unexpectedly, before she could finish her words, Jiufang Mingyuan flew away in a hurry, as if he had something urgent to do.
The forbidden area is located at the highest point of the clouds. After the demon fire was extinguished, the demons knew it was not appropriate to fight anymore, so they waited for an opportunity to rescue the Snake Queen and escaped one after another.
Before escaping, Snake Queen spotted something so large and difficult to identify flying towards the direction of Ji Ming from afar. Further behind, a large number of immortal soldiers flew towards the top of the cloud with great momentum.
Obviously, the Scorpion lived up to expectations and successfully opened the seal.
"Jiufang Mingyuan, your good days are over."
Her cheeks were burned by the demonic fire, and her flesh and blood were blurred. She didn't care at all and laughed crazily: "We'll see."
The demons escaped, and the demons were completely unaware. At the moment they were ambushed by the demons, the Ji Ming seal formation had been opened, and the immortal soldiers were rushing towards the top of the cloud with great momentum.
Wherever they passed, the evil spirit was cleared, the dark clouds retreated, and the sun shone on the earth.
This was the first time in more than four hundred years that mortals saw such brilliant sunlight. They were instantly overjoyed and looked up at the sky.
I saw the thick dark clouds pressing down on my head suddenly break open from the direction of the darkest place, and the sky seemed to be cut open by a sharp blade, splitting into two sides.
They didn't know what was going on, but it must be a good sign, so they rushed out into the sunlight and enjoyed the warmth of the sun on their faces.
The demons who remained in the human world immediately realized that something was wrong and that they were in trouble, so they immediately set out to rush back to the top of the cloud.
Suddenly, more than four hundred years of peace came to an end, and war was imminent.
When Jiufang Mingyuan got the news and flew out of the forbidden area, he saw the black dragon coming towards him.
He thought the black dragon was seeking revenge on him, but when it got closer, he saw it was carrying a person on its back. The red shadow made Jiufang Mingyuan's pupils shrink suddenly.
The next moment, he was standing on the roof of the Silent Jade Palace, watching the Black Dragon carefully set down a severely injured woman in red and depart. In the distant horizon, a large number of immortal soldiers appeared.
The immortals have been sealed for four hundred years, and they must have been practicing diligently day and night, preparing for war; on the other hand, the demons on the top of the clouds have just experienced a chaotic battle, with countless casualties, and have no fighting power at all.
"It's you."
"Taking advantage of someone's misfortune," Jiufang Mingyuan seemed to be asking the person lying on the ground, but also seemed to be asking himself, "Or should I plan this myself?"
The demons attacked at night, the forbidden land was set on fire, and the demons were exhausted from responding. But at this moment, the seal of the underworld was opened and the immortals attacked. How could it be such a coincidence?
You have a really good plan to use the demon clan to pave the way for the immortal clan.
Jiufang Mingyuan laughed out of anger, leaped off the roof, removed the leaves covering Yi Wu's face, and pinched her chin hard. "Since you've succeeded, why did you come back? Why don't you go back to your immortal clan?"
Anger and regret battled against another emotion buried for years. He finally let go of her hand and smiled cruelly, "How can you just die like this? That's not possible."
