Chapter 21 Princess Carry Fate and Dual Cultivation Warning
Princess Carry Fate and Dual Cultivation Warnings
The red-gold demonic fire dragon, wrapped in Li Jiuyou's desperate rage and original blood essence, roared and tore through the rolling gray fog, and slammed heavily into the violently shaking bone arch!
Boom——!!!!
A deafening explosion echoed throughout the depths of the Ten Thousand Demon Tomb! A blinding crimson-gold light instantly engulfed everything at the entrance! A violent energy shockwave, like a literal tsunami, slammed into the tundra!
"Get down!" Xuanjia screamed, closed his green eyes, and instantly retracted his head and limbs into his shell, leaving only the hard shell spinning wildly on the ground like a gyroscope out of control.
Man Gu roared, his massive body blocking Li Jiuyou like a rock, his arms crossed to protect his head, enduring the impact! Ah Che was blown away by the blast, the broom handle in his hand flying out of his hand, spinning into the air!
The gravekeeper's hunched figure remained motionless in the strong wind, his gray robe rustling, and his turbid gray eyes reflected the red gold that burned everything, deep and bottomless.
Jiang Xuelan reacted instinctively the moment Li Jiuyou exploded. The sharp pain in his lower back slowed him down, and he could only muster a surge of immortal energy. An ice-blue shield of immortal energy instantly solidified into a thin barrier of ice before him! The shockwave slammed into the ice shield with a teeth-grinding "crunch," and spiderweb-like cracks instantly covered the ice shield! The immense force pushed him back, each step ripping at the pain in his waist, and cold sweat instantly soaked his inner clothes.
"Puff!" After delivering that stunning punch, Li Jiuyou felt as if all his strength had been drained. The demonic fire he had gathered instantly dissipated, his scarlet-gold pupils suddenly dimmed, and his body slumped backward, held firmly by Man Gu. His face was as pale as gold paper, and his breath was as weak as a candle in the wind. The backlash from forcibly draining his essence erupted instantly, and the icy blue halo at his dantian flickered violently, as if it would shatter at any moment!
"King!" Man Gu's voice was filled with tears. He could feel that Li Jiuyou's vitality was rapidly fading!
The red-gold light at the entrance slowly dissipated.
The bone archway...disappeared.
All that remained was a vast, charred pit, its edges oozing with molten red-gold liquid, emitting a terrifyingly high temperature. At the bottom of the pit lay several massive, charred bones, emitting plumes of smoke. As for the menacing pursuers who had just torn through the gray fog, they had vanished without a trace, as if completely obliterated by the raging demonic fire!
Only the violent demonic fluctuations lingering in the air and a few burnt-smelling traces left by fleeing in panic on the edge of the deep pit proved that the three demon domain commanders, Chi Yan, Du Viper, and Yan Xi, had been here before - and had paid a heavy price!
"Hiss..." Ache struggled to get up from a pile of moss that was emitting a faint green light. He was covered in dust and dirt. Looking at the terrifying deep pit, he took a breath of cold air, "Li... Li Demon King... blew the door... down with one punch?!" He felt that his worldview had been refreshed.
Xuanjia cautiously poked his head out, his green eyes scanning the deep pit. He then looked at Li Jiuyou, who lay limp in Mangu's arms, barely breathing. The lines on his shell flashed wildly, "Madman! Absolutely crazy! That punch took away at least three times his essence! Adding insult to injury! The effects of the Ice Soul Cold Dew have been completely wiped out! Now that's good, the pursuers are gone, and he's almost dead!"
Jiang Xuelan removed his cracked ice shield, enduring the sharp pain in his waist and the swirling ice fragments in his sea of consciousness caused by the violent impact, and walked step by step to the edge of the deep pit. The scorching air wave hit him, illuminating his pale and cold face. He glanced at the deep pit, then his eyes fell on Li Jiuyou, his brow furrowed.
**Foolish monster! Reckless man! Kill one thousand enemies and lose fifteen thousand of your own!**
The gravekeeper's hunched figure had reached the edge of the pit at some point. His cloudy gray eyes swept across the deep pit, then fell on Li Jiuyou, finally stopping at Jiang Xuelan's lower back, where he was holding her. His cracked lips moved silently, as if calculating something.
"The Ice Soul Cold Dew... the suppressive force... has dissipated... the Origin Fire... is out of control and backlashing..." The gravekeeper's hoarse voice was like sandpaper scraping against the ground. "He... can't last... half an incense stick..."
"What?!" Man Gu and A Che screamed at the same time, their faces pale.
Xuanjia glared with his green eyes: "Half an incense stick?! It's all over! We are really going to be on the run now..."
"Shut up!" Jiang Xuelan interrupted harshly, his cold gaze sweeping across Xuanjia, causing it to swallow the last word. He suppressed the sharp pain in his waist and the irritation in his heart, looked at the gravekeeper, and his voice was slightly tense. "Since you know this place, you must have a solution. What are the conditions?"
The gravekeeper's turbid gray eyes turned to Jiang Xuelan, and his gaze seemed to penetrate his skin, falling on the icy immortal power entangled in his body, the restless heat current of the demon pill, and the deeper seal of the God-killing Gu.
"The Heart-Destroying Contract... is a shackle... but also... a bridge..." The gravekeeper slowly raised his bony finger, pointing to the thicker, almost liquid gray fog swirling deeper in the tundra. "This fog... is called 'Soul Sinking'... Deep within it... lies a spring... called 'Yin Yang'..."
"The spring is divided into two poles... The Yang Spring... can lead... the uncontrolled fire in his body... into the right path... and nourish the essence... The Yin Spring... can help you... calm... the conflict between ice and fire... and suppress... the poison..." The gravekeeper's words were intermittent, but they sounded like thunder in everyone's ears!
"Can you save the king? And the Immortal Lord?" Man Gu's eyes burst into ecstasy!
"Yin Yang Spring? It sounds amazing!" A Che also ignited hope.
Black Armor Green Bean's eyes flashed, "Yin Yang Spring?! The legendary core of the Ten Thousand Demons' Tomb, a place of good fortune that can reconcile the yin and yang of life and death? It actually exists? It's recorded in my tortoise shell tome! This is a great fortune!"
