Against the Gods Chapter 820: The Eternal Mystery



The Disaster Bird is a powerful monster that lived in the Mist Demon Valley in the Age of Gods and Demons. It has a body like colored glass, lightning speed, and a body like fine steel. When it flaps its wings, it can instantly stir up a dark storm and drag everything into a purgatory-like disaster.

"Chiuhi~~~~"

The Zai Glass Bird folded its wings and swooped down from the sky, as sudden as thunder. Wherever it went, the dark space was immediately stirred into a twisted vortex. Under the red light of Jasmine's body, its body reflected the light of colorful glass... But this colorful light did not make people feel gorgeous, but instead made people shudder like the reflective snake scales.

These dark beasts seemed to have a very strong sense of territory. Whether it was the Nine Desolate Demon Fangs just now or the Disaster Glass Bird now, they all attacked as soon as they discovered Jasmine.

Jasmine was really surprised by the speed of the Zai Glass Bird. This might not be the maximum speed of the Zai Glass Bird, but it was already faster than her speed at the limit. In the moment she was stunned, the dark storm brought by the Zai Glass Bird's swooping down had already arrived in front of her.

The red light on Jasmine's body that had just subsided surged again. Her snow-white little hand reached directly into the dark storm. With a casual grab, she instantly disrupted the dark storm that was tearing through the void. The direction of the disaster bird's dive suddenly deviated and plunged headfirst to the side of Jasmine. Amid the flying rocks, a huge deep pit was pierced at the bottom of the dark abyss.

Jasmine Star God appeared beside the broken shadow of the disaster bird, stretched out her hand to grab a red-yellow bird toe, spun her body halfway, and fiercely threw the disaster bird, whose body was hundreds of times larger than hers, away.

The disaster bird let out a miserable cry and flew across more than ten miles like a cannonball. After its body fell to the ground, it chiseled a gully over a hundred feet long in the dark earth before it finally stopped. The colorful scales on its body were gradually stained with red blood.

"hiss……"

The cry of the disaster bird became angry and ferocious. It stood up, blood dripping all over its body, and its wings trembled slightly. However, the aura on its body did not weaken, but became even more sinister and violent.

"Chiu——"

“Chi——!”

Jasmine was just about to step forward and deal a fatal blow to the Glass Bird, when suddenly two identical long, piercing cries came from the darkness not far away—it was two more Glass Birds!

After the disaster glass bird, there were hundreds of different but extremely terrifying dark auras approaching at a very fast speed. Their targets were also obvious!

In Jasmine's current state, it was simply impossible to deal with so many dark beasts at once. She frowned, took a step back, and without hesitation, floated into the air and flew upward at the fastest speed, flying thousands of feet high until her body passed through the critical point between the two worlds.

Suddenly, the dark demonic aura disappeared without a trace, and the elements and laws of the surrounding world returned to normal. Jasmine stopped and took a final look below. She slashed her hand in front of her, splitting the space, and instantly crossed a height of ten thousand feet, returning to the top of the Cloudless Cliff.

Jasmine did not leave immediately after leaving the dark world at the bottom of the cliff. She stood on the edge of the Cliff of Absolute Clouds, looking indifferently at the darkness below, as if she was concentrating on thinking about something... No one would have thought, including before she arrived, that at the bottom of this abyss, there would be a strange world hidden that should never exist.

If any of the dark beasts escaped from the abyss, the world would be plunged into a nightmare of destruction, and no one could resist. Even if all the emperors of the three continents united, it would be wishful thinking to destroy a single beast.

However, no one in this world would know that the world they exist in actually hides such terrifying things... and there are so many of them!

“Now that the evil god is dead… why this dark world still exists should be an eternal mystery.” Jasmine muttered to herself after pondering for a long time.

Shenhuang Country, Black Moon Association.

After returning from the Supreme Sea Palace, Zi Ji's state of mind was no longer as peaceful as before. The Demon Sword Conference that brought together the world's strongest did not get the secret of Shenxuan as they expected, but instead made the four sacred places that dominated Tianxuan for ten thousand years discover that there was an even more powerful existence above them...so powerful that they could treat them like ants.

Moreover, due to the greed of the four holy places, their fate was now in the hands of others.

This time he returned to the Black Moon Club with a mission that was extremely important to the Supreme Ocean Palace... to prepare gifts for Yun Che and Princess Xue's engagement party twelve days later.

The Supreme Ocean Palace had never prepared a gift so solemnly and nervously before - because their fate had never been controlled by anyone before.

The seventh floor of the Black Moon Club was as quiet as ever. The only sound of gurgling water did not destroy the tranquility, but instead added to the elegance.

At this moment, the silence was broken by the girl's scream.

"Ah! Who... who are you?"

"Who dares to trespass into the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce?"

This exclamation made Zi Ji frown. The seventh floor of the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce was not accessible to ordinary people. It was even more difficult to force one in. No one had ever had the courage to do so. The panic in the girl's voice clearly meant that it was not because of the arrival of a distinguished guest, but because someone had forced his way in.

Zi Ji turned his body and moved dozens of feet in an instant, arriving at the direction where the scream came from. He saw the three girls who usually served him were nervously blocking a girl in red.

The moment he saw the girl clearly, Zi Ji's solemn face suddenly twitched, his pupils shrank violently as if pierced by a steel needle, and he hurriedly said: "Qing Chen, Huang Que, Zi Xi, this is an honored guest, you must not be rude, and apologize quickly!"

He was afraid that the red-dressed girl would make trouble, so he quickly stepped forward and bowed deeply: "Senior, these three little maids have never seen your holy face, so they are ignorant and offensive. Please be merciful and don't bother with them."

Qingchen, Huangque and Zixi were all stunned for a moment… As people who knew Ziji's identity well, they had never seen Ziji so frightened, nor had they ever seen him show such great courtesy to anyone - not even to the Sea Emperor himself.

Indeed, the Sea King's presence here would not make Zi Ji so fearful. But the one who appeared before him was...

Jasmine!!

"Catch this!" Jasmine said coldly, and with a push of her small hand, a girl's dress with a red crystal tassel pendant, which was luxurious yet lovely, floated towards Zi Ji in a ball of red light.

Zi Ji quickly raised his hands and took it carefully.

“I bought this seven years ago from the New Moon City branch of your Black Moon Chamber of Commerce. Now it’s damaged. I’ll give you three days to completely repair it!” Jasmine ordered.

"This..." Zi Ji was confused. He remembered that when he saw Jasmine at the Devil Sword Conference, she seemed to be wearing the red Liuxian dress in his hand.

"Is there a problem?" Jasmine's voice suddenly turned colder.

Zi Ji's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly said, "No, no, no. Since it came from our Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, we must naturally take responsibility to the end..."

"That would be great." Jasmine said coldly, "Remember! I want to repair it, not ask you to find another one that is exactly the same. I only want this one! You only have three days. After three days, I will come to pick it up in person. If the repair is not completed or I am not satisfied, I will tear down your store!"

After saying that, Jasmine turned around and disappeared from the spot, leaving Zi Ji no chance to even speak.

"..." Zi Ji took a deep breath, then stretched out his arm and wiped the sweat from his forehead with some trembling. He took a long time to calm down, and finally said calmly: "Qing Chen, Huang Que, Zi Xi, immediately send a message to the presidents of the top ten... No, the top thirty branches, and ask them to personally bring the best craftsmen in the branch, use the best Xuan Crystal to activate the best Xuan Zhou, and set off immediately, and rush to the headquarters at the fastest speed. Don't delay for a moment... Go now!"

"Yes!" The three girls didn't dare to ask more questions and left in a hurry. Looking at Zi Ji's expression, it was clearly a matter of life and death for the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce.

——————————————

After practicing the Great Way of the Buddha for several cycles, Yun Che woke up from his meditation. The heaviness in his body was relieved a lot again, and the dormant parts of the Phoenix blood and Golden Crow blood also showed more obvious signs of awakening.

Yun Che opened his eyes and saw Jasmine standing in front of him.

“When did you come back?” Yun Che asked subconsciously.

"Just now." Jasmine replied.

“Strange, I remember you were wearing a Hongxun Liuxian dress when you went there. How come you suddenly changed into a different dress?” Yun Che looked Jasmine up and down and said suspiciously.

At this time, Jasmine was wearing a bright red short-sleeved polka-dot skirt with a big bow tied on the back. Girls love to change clothes, and changing clothes is normal for other girls, but it is extremely rare for Jasmine... because Jasmine has always had a special liking for the first skirt he bought for her - the Hongxun Liuxian skirt.

Over the years, Yun Che had bought her many dresses in the Profound Sky Continent and the Illusory Demon Realm, including various princess dresses, moonlit dresses, flowing fairy dresses, phoenix tail dresses, Qiongxia dresses, etc., all of which were bright red, and each one was extremely luxurious. However, she wore the Hongxun Liuxian dress ninety-nine percent of the time, and would only change it occasionally to see if it looked good.

Although she has worn it for seven years, with the protection of her Xuan Qi, the Hongxun Liuxian Skirt will not be stained in the slightest. As long as she is willing, she can wear it for hundreds or thousands of years without any problem.

"Don't you always say that I don't like to change my clothes? Humph!" Jasmine snorted coldly and turned away, looking like she didn't want to pay attention to him.

The hem of Jasmine's red skirt was short, exposing her two white jade-like legs completely. The pair of small rubies on her feet cast a shimmering light on her jade-colored snow-white skin, and Yun Che could hardly look away. He quickly shook his head, praying that Jasmine had not noticed the focus of his eyes just now, and quickly shifted his attention and said, "Jasmine, what was discovered over there in the Azure Cloud Continent? What exactly is hidden under the Absolute Cloud Cliff?"

"...When are you planning to go to Cangyun Continent?" Jasmine asked back.

“If possible,” Yun Che did not hesitate for too long and answered directly: “Of course the sooner the better… I even want to go now.”

“I don’t know what Ling’er will be like now.” Yun Che muttered.

If everything that happened back then was not an illusion, then Ling'er would be sixteen years old now.

"So how are you going to go?"

"Of course, we'll use the Primordial Mysterious Ark."

“The Ancient Profound Ark?” Jasmine glanced at him and said leisurely, “Then do you know how far Cangyun Continent is from Profound Sky Continent?”

“The distance between the Profound Sky Continent and the Illusory Demon Realm is approximately 1.3 million miles.” Jasmine slowly stretched out two fingers, “And the distance between the Profound Sky Continent and the Azure Cloud Continent is a full seven times this number!”

“Seven times…” Yun Che was secretly shocked: “More than nine million miles!?”

No wonder, the Profound Sky Continent and the Illusory Demon Realm knew each other's existence, and there were many historical grievances. But no matter the Profound Sky Continent or the Illusory Demon Realm, there was no detailed record of the Azure Cloud Continent. There were only very few and very vague rumors. It turned out that although they were in the same world, they were nearly tens of millions of miles apart! !

Although the land is thousands of miles long, it can be reached eventually. But the sea is thousands of miles long... it is almost impossible for human beings to cross it.

Jasmine crossed her arms and said calmly, “With the remaining energy of the Primordial Profound Ark, you can travel to and from the Illusory Demon Realm more than a dozen times, but to travel to and from the Azure Cloud Continent… you can only complete it once! If you consume too much of the Primordial Profound Ark’s energy before, I’m afraid that after you reach the Azure Cloud Continent, you will never be able to come back.”

“… So, we still can’t use the Primordial Profound Ark.” Yun Che said in a low voice, and then looked at Jasmine in a flattering way: “Jasmine, hehe…”

"I can take you there." Jasmine's expression became serious: "But you have to promise me one thing."

"Eh? What's going on?"

Jasmine’s thin eyebrows tilted slightly. The dark world under Jueyun Cliff undoubtedly became a huge question that she could not let go of in her heart: “No matter now or in the future, when you are in Cangyun Continent, you must never get close to Jueyun Cliff again! Even if your strength is a hundred times that of now, and you can dominate the world and easily defeat someone like Xuanyuan Wentian, you must never try to explore the bottom of Jueyun Cliff!”

Yun Che was a very curious person who was never afraid of unknown dangers. Jasmine knew this very well. With Yun Che's growth rate, he would definitely be invincible in this world one day. After he had no enemies, he would probably try to explore what was under the Cloudless Cliff out of curiosity, boredom, and self-confidence...

That would be like sending himself into a dark hell from which there was no return! The dark suction there would make it impossible for him to escape forever, and the dark magic breath would turn him into ashes. Any magical beast could easily tear him into pieces.

Therefore, she must stop him from having any thoughts about her from now on.
