Chapter 88: Even if I cut you off, I’m not afraid that the past will turn into ashes!
"Ha, aren't you talking nonsense? Of course I have to go, otherwise why would I be here?" Zhao Chaoan rolled his eyes and walked away without paying any attention to her.
Sha Ruxin shrugged and followed. This was the magic circle she had provided, and her help was needed to operate it.
"Hey, you are here too? Not bothering the young city lord? Why are you alone?" Qu Lingyou turned around and saw Zhao Chaoan and Sha Ruxin. Noticing that there was no familiar person around Zhao Chaoan, he asked subconsciously, his mouth faster than his brain.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Chaoan's originally friendly and kind face suddenly turned dark. Seeing this, Bai Zhi poked Qu Lingyou with her elbow and told her to shut up and stop talking about things that were not related to the topic.
Qu Lingyou also knew that he had said the wrong thing. He coughed twice awkwardly, scratched his head and pointed to the side: "I'll go and prepare something. You guys go ahead and do your own thing." After saying that, he almost walked away in a panic.
Bai Zhi watched her leave, rubbing her brows with a headache, then looked at Zhao Chaoan and nodded: "I'm glad to see you, sir. May I ask why you came here?"
"Come and help me. Is there anything I can do for you?" Zhao Chaoan took a deep breath, his expression softened a little, and asked.
Bai Zhi nodded and led them to a smaller formation next to the magic circle. She explained their formation plan, "Indeed, there is one. Your Excellency can see this large formation. In addition to this formation, we have also prepared three companion formations and several smaller subsidiary formations. These subsidiary formations are all controlled by our disciples, but these three are the most important."
She came to the first companion formation and pointed at it, saying, "This formation assists the main formation. When the main formation is operating, the person inside will gradually enter a state of concentration, their consciousness completely entering another dimension. At that point, the formation's operation will rely entirely on its own initiative, which carries the risk of problems. Therefore, someone will be needed to assist with its operation and be ready to adjust its path at any time."
"Let me do this. I'm quite familiar with this formation, so I'm more suitable to be in charge of this." Sha Ruxin said, "I remember the other one is to directly assist her. That one is more suitable for you."
After thinking about it for a while, Bai Zhi felt that it was indeed the case, so she decided on it directly. Sha Ruxin came to the magic circle to move around, then half squatted down and tried to deduce it.
The two then passed through the main formation and arrived at another magic circle. Bai Zhi pointed at this one and explained, "Your Excellency only needs to enter a state of meditation here. The magic circle will help you perceive the heaven and earth. Then, do your best to block the heaven and earth's sight. Although the Spirit of Heaven has now left its position in the Heavenly Dao, it is still a god after all. Disobeying Him will still be punished. Blocking the heaven and earth's sight will make our task easier."
"Well... I understand the principle, but I just need to sit on it, okay?" Zhao Chaoan asked, gesturing. "I don't need to recite any mantras or anything like that?"
"No, the function of this magic circle is to guide your consciousness to perceive the world after you enter a state of meditation. Just don't resist it."
Zhao Chaoan let out a long "oh" and nodded in agreement. Actually, she still didn't quite understand, but according to Bai Zhi, the magic circle would guide her when the time came, so she would just wait and see.
If that doesn't work, she can just interfere directly. There's more than one way anyway. This is why Bai Zhi agreed to let her help without knowing anything - she can interfere directly without the help of a magic circle.
And with her help, Qi Yiwen, who was originally in charge of this area, will be able to free up time to help them protect the law and respond flexibly to various situations, which will greatly enhance their safety.
After arranging Zhao Chaoan, Bai Zhi went to arrange for other people, and then went to Qu Lingyou's position to inquire about her situation. After the two had a secret conversation, Bai Zhi came to her own position.
As Qi Yiwen finished speaking, the ceremony officially began.
Zhao Chaoan sat down on the companion magic circle and entered into a state of meditation. As expected, she felt a faint pulling force. She allowed herself to be pulled over by this force, and slowly, she felt the gaze of heaven and earth.
It's very simple, all that's left is to block it.
After completing his own part, Zhao Chaoan also took the time to pay attention to the situation of the main formation, which was also going smoothly. He had found the location of the contract and the only thing left was to cut it off.
This is also the most difficult part, but she is powerless to do anything about it and can only believe that Qu Lingyou can do it.
Qu Lingyou also knows this very well. No matter how powerful the person on the companion magic circle is, no matter how strong the auxiliary effect of the magic circle is, whether she can survive and succeed in the end depends on herself.
She has found the location of the contract, but following the contract, she also discovered that the faith of some people has not been eliminated. Forcibly severing the contract will make them lose their faith and fall into madness.
But who cares? Now the whole world knows the truth. If you still believe it at this critical moment, then just believe it.
She also felt the obstruction of the Spirit of Heaven, and was immediately stopped by someone, but just as she was about to strike with her knife, the pressure of the Spirit of Heaven swept over her again, and then disappeared again.
She didn't know if it was an illusion, but she seemed to hear a "tsk", as if someone was angry.
At the same time, Qu Lingyou felt another surge of support—not because she was particularly proficient in formations, but because her movements were becoming much smoother. Seizing this momentum, she swung her sword with all her might, severing the contract.
"cough!"
Qu Lingyou spat out a mouthful of blood and immediately came out of his state of meditation. He felt severe pain in his internal organs, but a somewhat crazy smile was on his face.
Ha, she has succeeded in defying the gods, and her life is not lived in vain!
The sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and thunder and lightning began to gather, rumbling loudly, as if the sky was angry.
"What? You're the only one allowed to cause trouble, but no one else is allowed to fight back? You have such a bad temper, do you have the guts to stop me? Oh no, I've already succeeded, once again, ha!"
Qu Lingyou couldn't stand up, so he could only sit there with his middle finger raised to the sky, afraid that he would miss this opportunity soon. Seeing Bai Zhi trying to come over, he waved his hand to stop her.
The thunder in the sky seemed to freeze for a moment, as if brewing, before it crashed down with a bang. Just before it fell, Qu Lingyou took the pill on time.
This was an attempt to make before starting. It could protect part of the meridians from the thunder, but she was not sure how long it could protect her or how long the thunder would last, so she chose to take it at the moment before starting.
The medicinal power that entered her body was released with the help of her physique, and at the same time, thunder from the sky descended. Even with the elixir and the weakened power of the Spirit of Heaven beforehand, this blow still almost knocked Qu Lingyou down.
If Qin Li had not been killed first, this blow would have turned her into ashes.
Zhao Chaoan wanted to take action to see if he could help stop it, but he was burned as soon as he made a move. Although he successfully blocked it, his hand was also affected and turned black.
Sha Ruxin hadn't expected Zhao Chaoan to do this. After a moment of hesitation, she quickly pulled him back: "Are you crazy? Heavenly thunder restrains ghosts, aren't you afraid of turning into ash in the past!"
"Well, I'm just trying it. I know my limits." Zhao Chaoan shook his hand, and it returned to normal. "Don't you feel something's wrong? Logically speaking, my attempt won't work. Instead, it will make my hand disappear."
"So, this heavenly tribulation can be interfered with. After all, it is just a false god, not a true god."
Bai Zhi looked at Zhao Chaoan's hand, a hint of disbelief and hope flashed in her eyes, and then without hesitation, she took a pill and rushed forward.
Su Yunying was stunned by this scene and subconsciously wanted to go over, but Qi Yiwen stopped her. Qi Yiwen pulled her arm while calling on the other disciples to continue helping to maintain the formation, but this time she changed the formation's logic a little, changing it into a defensive formation.
Anyway, it's just a supporting formation, so it's easy to modify.
"Don't go over there, protect me." Qi Yiwen hurriedly instructed, then rushed to the edge of the magic circle, cut his wrist, and quickly modified it with blood.
Su Yunying was confused by the sudden change just now, but now she has come to her senses and immediately replaced Qi Yiwen's position, praying in her heart for success.
Can they really succeed?
Qu Lingyou mobilized all her strength to resist the heavenly calamity, but under the continuous attacks of heavenly thunder, her strength soon broke down and she couldn't help but have some doubts in her heart.
If she didn't survive the heavenly tribulation, would it still be considered a success?
Well, at least now Tian Zhiling's retreat has been completely cut off by them, and now the only option left is a head-on confrontation, which is equivalent to cutting off a person's left and right hands and then having a head-on confrontation.
How many people can do such a thing as severing the contract with God?
Qu Lingyou smiled in pain. She had been unrestrained for so many years, and this was probably the most unrestrained time. She had no regrets.
It is worth it to be able to personally kill the god who once caused you suffering.
This thunder is really painful.
Suddenly, she felt that the thunder seemed to be smaller, and then she seemed to be hugged by someone, and her senior sister's voice came from her ears.
"Don't be afraid, you won't die as long as I'm here."
Bai Zhi hugged Qu Lingyou tighter, blocking her from the sky and helping her absorb more of the thunder. Her cultivation level was higher than Qu Lingyou's, and as the leader of a sect, she always had some bonuses and protection. This was why she wanted to take Qu Lingyou's place in the first place.
However, she did not have the confidence like Qu Lingyou in breaking the contract. She did not have Qu Lingyou's fierce aura. Her spiritual power was gentler and more inclined to protect.
Fortunately, it was Huyou, and now she can protect her junior sister.
Qu Lingyou was hugged suddenly, stunned for a moment, closed his eyes and nodded vigorously.
Two or three more bolts of lightning descended, then suddenly stopped, as if someone had grabbed her neck. Sha Ruxin sighed. Logically, the thunder was only halfway through, and it was gaining momentum.
Zhao Chaoan was also a little surprised, then nodded in understanding and cast his gaze to a very far, invisible place.
She succeeded and ascended to the level of demigod.
There, Ying Bu Ran withdrew his hand that had stopped the heavenly tribulation from the Spirit of Heaven, looked at Zhao Qingxun who was slowly walking towards him from behind, and nodded.
"Let's go and make a final acquaintance."
