Chapter 83 Chapter 83 Let’s Make a Break
The entire Xuanhe Peak was shrouded in evil spirit.
The barrier was broken, and thousands of layers of water splashed under the cold pond. A black shadow emerged from under the cold pond, with a faint dark light in the center. It was the divine bone sealed under Xuanhe Peak.
This piece of divine bone is more special than any I've seen before. It has a special evil aura attached to it, making it look like both a god and a demon, making people afraid.
Jiang Chengxu put down his hand that was blocking Xu Ying's head, and looked at the divine bone floating in the air with her.
"There really is a divine bone..."
"We can't let him take the divine bone away."
Xu Ying spat out a mouthful of blood, and seeing the wounds on Jiang Chengxu's arms and back, she hurriedly said:
"Are you okay?"
"What can I do?"
Jiang Chengxu smiled, the cut on his face burst open and blood gushed out, but he still said in a casual tone:
"I'll go stop him, you take Chen Wu and leave first."
"What the hell are you farting about?"
Xu Ying wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and said fiercely:
"Who can stop you when you're injured like this? Let's die together!"
After saying this, she deliberately avoided looking at Jiang Chengxu's expression and turned to look at Chen Wu, who was lying on the ground, his life or death unknown, and couldn't help complaining:
"It's such a pity for this idiot. I told him not to come with me. Wouldn't it be better for him to wait for Ji Chu at home and eat hot pot? He had to come with me!"
The usually carefree, outgoing and bright person's voice sounded so weak and sad for the first time:
"Now, one more person has to die..."
Jiang Chengxu raised his hand and put it on her shoulder. Xu Ying helped him up and heard him say:
"He won't die, and you won't die. We'll all live."
There were two "claps" and Xue Xianchen, standing under the divine bone, couldn't help but applaud:
"What a touching scene..."
Xu Ying quickly drew out the Danyu Sword and pointed it at him:
"Xue Xianchen! You devil, even if I die today, you won't be able to take the divine bone away!"
Xue Xianchen shrugged off her threats:
"Xu Ying, Xu Ying, do you know what your biggest weakness is? You're so stupid. You knew it was a scam, but you still rushed forward... just like Ji Chu."
Speaking of Ji Chu, a playful smile flashed in his eyes, and he looked at the sound transmission jade beside Chen Wu that was smashed by the demonic energy:
"No, she's still smarter than you. She knows that at a time like this, even if a friend is in danger, she shouldn't come to a place like this..."
"What do you know about friends, trash like you?"
Xu Ying uttered a "Pooh" sound, pushed Jiang Chengxu away, and swung his sword forward:
"My biggest shortcoming is that I didn't kill you, the devil, with one blow of my sword!"
Jiang Chengxu followed her, flanking her from the left and right.
Xue Xianchen raised the corner of his mouth in a disdainful smile, still looking like that handsome young man, but a bright red devil mark appeared between his eyebrows, and two streams of devilish energy rushed out from behind him.
Before the tips of Xu Ying and the other man's swords could touch him, they were heavily knocked away by the evil energy.
Jiang Chengxu spat out a mouthful of blood and couldn't stand up.
He could only watch helplessly as the divine bone in mid-air was pulled by the evil energy towards Xue Xianchen.
"Demon King..."
The evil spirit of the divine bone recognized Xue Xianchen's identity:
"Well, well, that Meng Yuci is ungrateful. Having a natural-born demon like you is good enough..."
"Use the blood of this Fu Yu Xian Zong cultivator as a sacrifice, and you and I will merge into a demon god that lives as long as the heavens!"
Xue Xianchen sneered again:
"How can the blood of a few cultivators be enough? What I want is the entire Six Realms!"
He strangled the divine bones with a demonic aura:
"Where is the Last God?"
Shen Gu Evil Thought was severely injured by Meng Yuci's sword and could not break free from his evil spirit. He laughed loudly upon hearing this:
"Why should the Demon King be so anxious? Once Xue Wanning gets Ji Chu's life, the Last God will appear."
"You're dreaming!"
Xu Ying was extremely angry. She used her sword to support herself on the ground and attacked Xue Xianchen and Shengu again.
"I will kill you first today, and then get rid of this evil creature for the sect!"
However, she was no match for Xue Xianchen to begin with, and now she was seriously injured. The sword only grazed the divine bone, and the next moment she was lifted into the air by the demonic energy.
Xue Xianchen showed impatience on his face and said to Shen Gu:
"I want Ji Chu, I want to keep her. You can choose anyone else... How about starting with this one?"
He slowly tightened his grip, and Xu Ying immediately began to struggle.
Jiang Chengxu struggled to get up, but was pinned to the ground by the evil spirit.
Xue Xianchen raised his hand, and a long sword emerged from the demonic energy. It was the sword worn by the disciples of the Fu Yu Immortal Sect.
He gestured on Xu Ying's neck, but his eyes were looking at Jiang Chengxu, as if he was admiring his helplessness.
The divine bone spun in the air and merged into his body.
The devil mark on Xue Xianchen's forehead became brighter red, and his facial features became more and more weird.
Suddenly, the expression on his face froze and the smile in his eyes disappeared instantly.
The evil spirit holding onto Xu Ying loosened its grip, and Xu Ying fell to the ground.
She covered her neck, and before she could wake up, she seemed to sense something and turned back suddenly.
A person suddenly appeared in the rain.
Ji Chu held a sword in his left hand, his long hair was disheveled, his face was pale, and his body was covered in blood. He seemed to be shrouded in an invisible ball of silk thread, like an evil ghost that had just crawled out of hell.
She dragged the Xunzhen Sword on the ground, the tip of the sword lightly hitting the steps, and the blade broke the raindrops, making a crisp sound.
The blood on the sword mixed with the rain water flowed down, spreading a very long red mark behind her.
Her eyes were ominously dim, no longer as bright and clear as before. In the blink of an eye, blood flowed from the corners of her eyes.
Then she shook the Xunzhen Sword casually, trying to identify the unconscious Chen Wu and Xu Ying and Jiang Chengxu whose faces were covered in blood from the blood-red scene in front of her.
Seeing that they were still alive, Ji Chu couldn't help but smile, but there was no warmth in his eyes, only darkness.
"I'm here."
She gripped the hilt of the sword, not knowing who she was talking to, her voice vague and trembling slightly.
Then she repeated it again.
"I came here in a hurry this time."
*
The moment he saw Ji Chu, Jiang Chengxu felt that the breath he had been holding on to for dear life could finally not be held on any longer.
He suddenly lay down, letting himself soak in the water, raised his hands to cover his face, and gasped uncontrollably.
Xu Ying doubted her own eyes:
"Ji Chu...? Why are you here? How...how are you injured like this?"
She got up from the ground and staggered to Ji Chu, wanting to hug her, but found that there was not a single healthy spot on her body, all covered with wounds of varying sizes.
Xu Ying's eyes were sore, and she couldn't help but yell at her:
"Didn't I tell you to run away?! I heard Xue Wanning say she wanted to kill you... Ji Chu, why don't you run away? What are you doing here? Look at how badly you're injured..."
As she shouted, her voice became choked:
"...Why did you come here...Who hurt you like this...Tell me, I'll help you kill him..."
"Chen Ke and Xue Wanning."
Ji Chu looked at Xu Ying:
"But don't worry, they can't hurt me anymore."
She smiled, as if bragging about having eaten something delicious, but her voice was washed away by the rain and became unfamiliar and cold.
"They're already dead."
Xu Ying paused as tears were about to burst out of her eyes:
"What?"
Ji Chu retracted his gaze and pointed the tip of his sword at Xue Xianchen:
"Now...it's your turn."
A thick, dark demonic aura lingered between Xue Xianchen's eyes, making his beautiful features appear gloomy.
Looking at him like this, he has lost all the disguise of a monk and looks like a demon.
"You killed my sister?"
Ji Chu tilted his head and did not answer his question.
The next moment, the Xunzhen Sword in her hand suddenly shook, and the tip of the sword seemed like a scattered silk thread, as if it was no longer in the shape of a sword, but the sword's power did not diminish at all. Instead, it turned into thousands of sword threads and rushed straight towards Xue Xianchen.
"Thousand Puppet Shadows?!"
Jiang Chengxu recognized it and couldn't help but exclaimed:
"How could Ji Chu have such evil magic? Did she use this evil magic to kill Elder Shen? How is it possible..."
Xu Ying pulled him out of the pool with one hand:
"What evil is this? Chen Ke hurt Ji Chu so badly. Even if she didn't do anything, I would kill him!"
In just this moment, Ji Chu was already entangled with Xue Xianchen's evil spirit.
She regarded herself as a sword, and her soul was divided into thousands of puppet shadows. It was difficult to define her moves with sword or sorcery.
Xue Xianchen had not yet fully merged with the divine bone, and was shocked to learn of Xue Wanning's death, so he was unable to gain any advantage for a while.
"How could you possibly kill my sister?"
The demonic energy formed claws and pressed down on Ji Chu's injured shoulder. Xue Xianchen's eyes were red:
"How dare you?!"
Ji Chu felt pain, but did not dodge. He stabbed a sword into his abdomen. Puppet shadow threads suddenly emerged from the sword and extended towards his internal organs, tightly wrapping around his heart, along with the half-fused divine bone.
Xue Xianchen's face immediately turned pale, and the devilish patterns crawled up his face uncontrollably.
But he is not Xue Xianchen himself, but just the evil spirit living in this body.
Even though his body was under control, his demonic energy would not dissipate and would instantly envelope Ji Chu.
Xu Ying and Jiang Chengxu hurried forward to rescue people, but were covered by a talisman thrown by Ji Chu.
They could only watch as Jiang Chengxu and Ji Chu were completely overwhelmed by the demonic energy.
"Achu, it's been a long time since we last met, and you're still so innocent."
Xue Xianchen smiled, just like before the two of them fell out:
"You can't kill me. On the contrary, if you kill Chen Ke, the realm of cultivation will not tolerate you."
He reached out and wanted to touch Ji Chu's face:
"I can forget about you killing my sister. As long as you leave with me, we can fuse the divine bones together, and then these six realms will be under our control."
Ji Chu looked at him expressionlessly. The puppet silk wrapped around his fingers, digging deep into his flesh, and even the white bones underneath were visible.
"I treated you like my sister all day long, so I thought we were deeply in love. I never thought you could say such a thing."
Xue Xianchen sneered:
"This is the devil. Even if I die here today, my sister won't be too sad."
"What's more, my sister only wants to use your life to please the Last God. That's her stupidity!"
He glanced at the sword on his abdomen, a mad smile in his eyes:
"Now that the divine bone is in my hands, so are you! Even the last god can't do anything to me!"
Ji Chu shook his head and said bluntly:
"You claim to be smart, but you're actually a fool. Do you really think that the Last God and Xue Wanning care about this divine bone?"
Xue Xianchen's expression changed:
"What do you mean?"
Ji Chu reached out and grabbed the divine bone in Xue Xianchen's body, feeling the struggle of the evil spirit and the roar of the evil thoughts in the divine bone. Just like in his previous life, he pulled it out forcibly.
Her hands were covered in Xue Xianchen's blood.
As the puppet shadow thread loosened, Xue Xianchen, who had suffered the pain of having his heart and lungs torn apart, could no longer hold on and fell to his knees on the ground.
The evil spirit dissipated a little, and Xu Ying and Jiang Chengxu saw Ji Chu standing in the darkness, her face made by the divine bones look even more strange.
"On the way here, I kept wondering why you could take the divine bone so easily?"
Xue Xianchen looked stunned.
Ji Chu looked at him, suddenly smiled, and his voice became lighter:
“Then it suddenly dawned on me.”
Her voice was extremely cold:
"What is a divine bone? It's just a tool for the Last God to choose a body."
"You were able to take the divine bone smoothly because the Sect Leader tacitly approved it. He wanted you to take the divine bone, trick out the Last God, and then capture you all in one fell swoop."
"And my friend, just because he was worried about me, unfortunately became a victim and became Xue Wanning's tool to destroy me."
"So... the person the Last God is truly afraid of, the person he truly wants to eliminate, is me."
"In my previous life, I was too stupid. I was plotted against by Chen Ke and Xue Wan Ning. I only met the Last God when I died. Unfortunately, it's too late."
"What did you say……"
Xue Xianchen's face was full of surprise, as if he didn't quite understand what Ji Chu said.
Ji Chu looked down at the divine bone in his hand:
"Listen carefully, whether it's the witch clan or the Demon King, don't even think about using any of them."
The evil spirit of the divine bone sensed her intention and roared.
The entire Xuanhe Peak was shaken by the impact of this evil energy.
Xu Ying and Jiang Chengxu hurriedly covered their ears, but the roar seemed to come from the horizon and still appeared in their consciousness, like a sharp blade cutting through their souls, causing so much pain that their ears bled.
Ji Chu had a blank expression on her face. She exerted force with her hands, crushing the divine bone into pieces, and the remaining divine power was absorbed by her.
The wounds all over her body healed quickly, and her eyes became darker.
"Only me. Only me."
"Either you come out, or I'll find you."
"Let's put an end to this."
Then she drew out her sword, and Xue Xianchen fell completely to the ground.
The Demon King possesses an immortal soul. If one body is destroyed, he can still be resurrected as long as he can find the next body.
However, suppressed by the evil energy from the gods in the upper realm, the demon soul half separated from the body, but was unable to escape for a while.
Even at this moment he still couldn't believe that Ji Chu could absorb the power of the divine bone so easily.
Why can she do it?
She was just an ordinary cultivator, how could she suppress the evil energy of the divine bone so easily?!
Could it be that the incident at the Immortal Questioning Conference was not a coincidence, but that she was truly different from others, which is why the Last God was so wary of her?
The thousand-thread puppet shadow was like a pair of spread wings, swaying gently in the rain, and then slowly retracted, returning to the shape of a sword.
With the power of the divine bone, Ji Chu completely merged the Xunzhen Sword and the Thousand Silk Puppet Shadow into one.
She decided not to wait for her senior brother.
If Xue Xianchen can do it, then so can she.
And she would be more suitable than Xue Xianchen.
As long as she is here, the Last God will definitely come looking for her.
Ji Chu decided to take a gamble.
In the distance, many disciples of the Fu Yu Xian Sect surrounded this place.
They will soon find the bodies of Chen Ke and Xue Wan Ning. Although they may not regard her as a traitor who colluded with the monsters, she has fused with the divine bone and exposed the Thousand Silk Puppet Shadow. Once she is caught, it will only become more and more difficult for them to take action.
She made her decision in an instant.
A sword symbol suddenly exploded at the top of Xuanhe Peak.
The sword was cold and murderous, like frost and snow falling suddenly, turning into ice when it hit rain, and it instantly crossed the entire Xuanhe Peak.
Xue Xianchen's demonic soul, which tried to escape, was also cut in half.
Frost formed on the edge of the black gas, which was connected to the broken body and could not be completely separated.
At the same time, almost all the disciples of the Fu Yu Xian Sect, whether they had arrived or not, were alarmed by this sword.
Ji Chu didn't expect that the sword talisman given by his senior brother would be so powerful. He was stunned, subconsciously opened his eyes, and looked at Xu Ying and Jiang Chengxu blankly.
The two of them originally raised their swords to stop the evil spirit from escaping, but they didn't expect Ji Chu to swing a sword talisman, and not to mention Xue Xianchen, even the two of them were almost cut into ice pieces.
The three of them looked at each other.
The next moment, Zhongli Bai's head popped out from the cloud boat. He first said, "I almost got struck to death," then wiped the icy rain from his face and waved frantically at Ji Chu:
"Ji Chu! Quick! Come up quickly!"
Then he stretched out his upper body, grabbed Ji Chu's hand, who was still in a daze, and pulled her onto the cloud boat.
Ji Chu turned around and looked down at Yunzhou. Xu Ying and Jiang Chengxu came to their senses. They pretended to be exhausted and threw themselves on the disciples who came over. At the same time, they waved in the direction of Yunzhou, signaling her to hurry up.
Ji Chu felt relieved.
Although everything is similar to the previous life, there are many differences.
Xu Ying is alive, Jiang Chengxu and Chen Wu are both alive.
She no longer had to hide, and no longer had to explain to others over and over again that she was not possessed by a demon and had not killed anyone.
There is no need to worry about whether others believe her.
Because none of this matters.
What she has done, what she wants to do, and what she is doing is what matters most.
After being reborn twice, she believes in herself more.
In this life, she will take the initiative to find the Last God and end it all with her own hands.
The cloud boat accelerated and flew out of the range of the Fu Yu Immortal Sect.
Ji Chu took the sound transmission jade from his waist, took a look at it, then reached out and threw the sound transmission jade from mid-air without hesitation.

Senior Brother: Ah?
