Chapter 1151: Chapter 195: I Want You to Bee Even More Beautiful
War, filthy blood stains the ground.
In the Utmost North, the Ice River melts away. Above the southern seas, black things drift over. The once desert devours the grassland.
Mountains, rivers, earth, forests, echo desolate laments.
Below the earth lies an endless abyss… a mouth that surpasses the Sky Vault, biting down one gulp after another… concealed in shadow beneath is something even thicker.
The true dragon’s radiance is like an ember about to extinguish in the snow… Long Xiruo is almost entirely pure white, in an instant dyed gray, as if something is infecting her pletely.
“What’s happening…”
The Godly Land’s true dragon guarding the Spiritual Energy opening, at this moment, her face changes dramatically… Just as she said, the Dragon Plague’s appearance is not the first time, but every time the Dragon Plague can be suppressed by the True Dragon’s power.
Now, the Dragon Plague attached to Gongsun Shiyu’s body, its power unexpectedly surpasses the sum of all previous Dragon Plagues!
From the earth’s depths, countless black things shoot out from the layers, like agile tentacles… on them, each is covered with scarlet eyes.
These are monsters full of chilling horror.
“What on earth are these things?!”
The tentacles of shadows covered with scarlet eyes, at this moment madly move around Su Zijun… The long sword of light flame cuts them open, and they instantly regenerate, infinite without end, and with enormous power.
“Do you feel it? Our hatred, our resentment… and the Divine Land’s wrath!!!” At this moment, the Dragon Plague, its body entirely covered with a black muddy substance.
It’s impossible to see Gongsun Shiyu’s original appearance… only scarlet eyes, only a constantly melting, ugly open mouth.
“Power… our power! It gushes out endlessly! The land’s power!!”
A massive power, at this moment, borrowing the land, crazily surges into its body—an unimaginable giant force!
It doesn’t know the source of this power… this massive influx of power gives it the feeling of being able to destroy everything in this world, enpassing all within its grasp, able to control at will.
pared to this power, the Million Soul Orb after devouring and refining, is less than a tenth of it… and this power continues to grow, as if boundless!
The massive influx of power even makes the Dragon Plague, during this time, possess terrifying power to overwhelm the Godly Land’s true dragon!
“Hahaha!! True dragon!! Even heaven is helping me!!”
The raging shadows, at this moment, further gather… the underground fissure of Mount Tai, at this moment, seems filled with countless ‘black mud.’
They devour all sources of light here!
The True Dragon’s power, the brilliance of the long sword of light flame, is now evidently so weak… ‘Black mud’ instantly corrodes the crystal of True Dragon’s power, the blocked Spiritual Energy opening, now visibly about to be eroded open.
“Old woman, haven’t you encountered the Dragon Plague several times before! Were they all this terrifying?”
Facing the terrifying tentacles crazily emerging from the ‘black mud,’ Su Zijun is struggling to cope.
“This Dragon Plague’s power far exceeds previous appearances…” Long Xiruo bites down, this ‘black mud,’ it even pollutes her True Dragon’s power.
This is not something unforeseen, only she never thought, never appeared in the True Dragon’s inherited memory… Could it be the Divine Land’s wrath has truly grown to such an extent.
The earth… at this moment, sends a violent tremor.
Simultaneously, the sky’s wild winds, dark clouds, this moment the galaxy dims away, the howling wind sounds like dragon wails… the Twelve Ancestral Veins of the Godly Land, they’ve arrived.
“They’ve arrived!” Long Xiruo’s face changes again.
“They’ve arrived!” The mad laughter, emitted from the Dragon Plague’s ugly mouth.
‘Black mud’ at this moment, pletely devours the vast underground fissure…
…
Su Zijun opens her eyes, in this pitch-black world, the only thing visible is Long Xiruo… She and her seem pletely trapped in this pure black space.
And the only thing resisting this darkness is the weak golden light emitted from Long Xiruo… and the ‘black mud,’ at this moment, continues to erode constantly.
“You… how are you?” Su Zijun quickly got up.
“These black mud, severed my connection with the earth…” Long Xiruo raised her head with difficulty, her hands open, as if trying to support the surrounding ‘black mud’… only her body trembled slightly.
“Can’t get the earth’s replenishment?” Su Zijun instantly realized Long Xiruo’s dire state.
The true dragon, unable to get replenishment from the earth, remains strong, but however strong it can be, its power will eventually be exhausted.
“This is truly the worst case…” Long Xiruo gritted her teeth, “Brat, if you hadn’t blocked me at the last moment, would the Dragon Plague succeed? We wouldn’t be in this mess now!”
“Old hag! If you hadn’t hidden the Dragon Plague’s true origin, would I reach this stage?” Su Zijun rushed forward, staring fiercely at her.
“Brat, are you brain-dead or oxygen-deprived? Can I let the world know the true nature of the Dragon Plague?” Long Xiruo angrily said, “Are your thoughts unclear or are you brain-dead!! This Dragon Plague’s origin was unknown to the Clothed Daoist, and yet it’s still here! If the world’s people knew the essence of the Dragon Plague, who knows what greater danger there might be… can I tell the world that there’s something on the Godly Land capable of dealing with me?!”
“You’re the fool!!” Su Zijun gritted her teeth, “Hasn’t the boss woken you up yet!!”
“Brat, it really is you!!” Long Xiruo gritted her teeth, her hands bending slightly at this moment.
“It’s me, so what, do you have the guts to bite me!” Su Zijun angrily retorted.
“You… you brat!!” Long Xiruo was also furious: “Do you know what you’re doing! Invoking the Murderous God Sword? You’re crazy!!”
“I’m not crazy! You’re the one who’s crazy!!” Su Zijun shouted angrily: “The Dao Monster has long reached the end, long shouldn’t have existed! Who forcibly extended the Dao Monster’s fortune… don’t think I don’t know under what conditions the Godly Land’s two realms agreement was made! Old hag, your brain really was kicked by a donkey!! Aren’t you tired?!!”
“They just want to live… is that wrong.”
“That’s right, everyone is right.” Su Zijun’s eyes suddenly reddened, and he said softly, “You’re not wrong either, but you cannot make a mistake… One wrong step and you’re doomed for eternity, if you make a mistake it’s all over. So…you can’t be wrong, since you can’t be wrong, let me make the mistake for you.”
“Su Zijun…”
——Father cannot make a mistake, so…let me make the mistake for him.
…
“I’ll settle this score with you another day… Don’t waste time with me now, help me, I can’t suppress the power of the Twelve Ancestral Veins much longer!”
While resisting the erosion of ‘black mud’, simultaneously suppressing the violent impact of spiritual energy from the Twelve Ancestral Veins, unable to receive replenishment from the earth, every breath Long Xiruo took was immeasurable.
“If these Twelve Ancestral Veins get polluted, what will Divine Land turn into?” Su Zijun suddenly asked.
Long Xiruo hastily replied, “If the person who controls the army is a homicidal maniac, what would happen?”
Su Zijun’s expression slightly changed.
Long Xiruo half-knelt on the ground, drenched in sweat, “I can’t predict what failure means, but Dragon Fiend is essentially a mouthful of resentment from the earth. You girl, wanting to bring out the Murderous God Sword is only to slaughter Dao Monsters and Transcendents, but this mouthful of resentment aims to eliminate all life energy on the earth. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth; only by doing onto the living what they once did to the earth, can this resentment be avenged.”
“I see…” Su Zijun gritted her teeth, “Since Dragon Fiend’s ultimate goal is this, it will naturally clash with the bottom line of the Murderous God Sword… I refuse to believe that with my Murderous God Sword and your strength, we can’t handle it!”
“My power es from the earth, from the Twelve Ancestral Veins… If these Twelve Ancestral Veins get polluted, it’s equivalent to me being polluted too.” Long Xiruo smiled bitterly, “By that time, even if the Murderous God Sword es out, what can it do? Even if the Xuanyuan Three Swords gather, can they really resist the entire frenzied power of Divine Land’s earth?”
“Is there no way…” Su Zijun bit her fingers… her palm trembled slightly, “No, there is a way… a very simple solution.”
“Don’t even think about it…” Long Xiruo yelled angrily, “Erase this thought! Stubborn girl, tell me, since the first time you started, how many times have you done it? Unconsciously, it offers you convenience, making you willingly strike deals over and over again. Now you have the accumulation of the Xuanyuan Royal Family to spend frivolously, but what if the royal wealth is depleted? What would you have left? You’d end up having only yourself to sell… this is a path of no return!”
“You have a solution?” Su Zijun suddenly asked in a low voice.
“At least, not until the last moment…” Long Xiruo turned her face away.
He had asked her before, in that underground room, whether she was willing to give up the power of the true dragon. From that moment, Long Xiruo knew clearly, for that person, he probably had his sights set on the true dragon’s power.
Even a true dragon has things it cannot do.
How many times of helplessness and disorientation, how many times of despair, how many times could not withstand!?
It’s like a road of no return; once you’ve walked it, you can’t go back… If the final true dragon’s power is lost, China will be left without the guardian true dragon.
“Actually, there is another way.” Long Xiruo took a deep breath, “Lend me your power, I still have a reserve of strength, with the help of the Murderous God Sword’s half-power, enough to break open this black mud.”
“Then why didn’t you say so earlier?”
“Once I start, I can no longer suppress the rampage of the Twelve Ancestral Veins!” Long Xiruo said seriously, “But at this point, all we can do is try… girl, you e and replace me to suppress them, for twenty seconds… no, ten seconds is enough! You definitely can do it!”
“Can you really deal with Dragon Fiend?” Su Zijun stared at Long Xiruo.
“If I lied to you, may I never find a man in my life!”
Long Xiruo immediately swore, “Remember… if I can’t succeed, that’s the last moment I mentioned, then you go and call that unscrupulous merchant… that merchant is probably just waiting, watching us, waiting for either you or me to speak up!”
There’s not much time to hesitate, Su Zijun nodded.
Long Xiruo gritted her teeth, reached out and directly inserted into Su Zijun’s chest… The true half of the Xuanyuan Sword of the Killing God is not the flaming sword Su Zijun held.
The moment the sword was unsheathed, the surrounding black mud was instantly pushed back several meters… the power sourced from the Murderous God Sword at this moment seemed to make even the black mud hesitate.
But as the sword pletely left Su Zijun’s body, Long Xiruo took the opportunity to stand up, “Your power will be very weak now, but ten seconds should be enough, I believe… what are you doing!”
Only to see Su Zijun suddenly snatch the sword from Long Xiruo’s hand.
“Stubborn girl, at this point, what are you trying to do!!”
“You didn’t have a way to deal with Dragon Fiend, did you.”
“You speak nonsense!”
“The only thing you can do now is to die with Dragon Fiend.” Su Zijun said slowly.
“You don’t believe I’m telling the truth!” Long Xiruo shouted angrily, “True dragon doesn’t die! Once Dragon Fiend is dealt with, I will immediately reborn from the earth! Stop messing around, give me the sword!”
“Even if you’re reborn… are you still you.” Su Zijun softly replied, “That would only be another vessel for the true dragon’s power. Old hag… I’m sorry, I caused this mess, let me deal with it.”
“Don’t act recklessly!”
Su Zijun slowly backed away… at that moment, the sword in her hand burst with light—a circle of golden ripples emanated from the sword, with Su Zijun at the center, spreading outwards.
“In my name, Xuanyuan Zi Jun calls upon…”
Su Zijun placed her hands on either side of the sword hilt.
The golden light, upon purging the mud beneath, flowed into the sword blade…
…
“What’s that thing…”
Before him, a black mist surged from the fissure at the summit of Mount Tai, where it had been split open… At this moment Zhuifeng stopped in his tracks, furrowing his brows.
Just then, Mo Xiaofei suddenly collapsed. His face was pale, cold sweat dripping down.
“Brother, brother!!” Zhuifeng quickly put down Zi Xing, attempting to hold Mo Xiaofei up, but at the moment he touched Mo Xiaofei, a terrifying force bounced Zhuifeng back.
“Brother!”
“Don’t e near…” Mo Xiaofei clutched his head painfully, “Don’t e near… it feels like something is about to burst out from my body… Don’t e over!!!”
At this moment, a beam of purple-gold light shot out from Mo Xiaofei’s chest, and his expression also became more painful in an instant… Mo Xiaofei roared in agony, his hands still grabbing into the golden light in his chest!
Under Zhuifeng’s incredible gaze, Mo Xiaofei actually grabbed… the hilt of a sword from the golden light in his chest!
The hilt was slowly drawn out, and then, unbelievably, the blade followed!
Ah—!
Finally, amidst a scream that seemed to tear from his lungs, Mo Xiaofei suddenly pulled out the sword from his chest… At that moment, thunder rumbled across the sky, the power was overwhelming!
After the longsword was pulled out from Mo Xiaofei’s chest, it immediately pierced toward the night sky, heading straight for the crack on the Mount Tai Summit!
A strand of purple lightning flashed across the sky… Zhuifeng didn’t have time to react, but at this moment, saw the purple lightning seemingly hit something, or as if something flicked it back!
The longsword spun wildly… At this moment, it flew back in reverse, finally embedding itself into the ground beside Mo Xiaofei as the purple light dimmed.
At this time, Mo Xiaofei weakly collapsed onto the ground, glanced at the sword slanted in front of him, and finally lost consciousness.
And this peculiar sword, after that, turned into a purple glow and drilled into Mo Xiaofei’s body.
Zhuifeng looked at the fainted Mo Xiaofei, then glanced at Zi Xing beside him, scratched his head, “How do I carry two people?”
…
…
One by one, strange symbols emitting a desolate and eternal aura appeared and disappeared on the sword blade.
Su Zijun’s eyes streamed with blood… Even after these strange symbols stopped appearing on the blade, she still reached out and grasped the sword hilt.
At the same time, in this space of black mud, blood-red eyes continuously opened, and the voice of Dragon Fiend filled the surroundings.
“Xuanyuan God-Slaying Sword… you think we will fear it!!!!!!”
The black mud driven away by the light suddenly swelled.
Su Zijun suddenly opened her eyes, swung the sword to meet them, “You losers!! Get lost!!!”
The sword burst out a powerful brilliance, instantly shattering the black mud, as if the sea was split… Dragon Fiend’s ugly body was pletely exposed in the sea.
Su Zijun soared into the sky.
“Zijun!!”
“Old woman, don’t take my ashes back to Xuanyuan Palace! I won’t be buried there even if I die!!” Su Zijun and the sword in her hand seemed to merge into one, “Besides… if you get the chance, find a man!”
Long Xiruo couldn’t move.
The violent spiritual energy stored for thousands of years in the Twelve Ancestral Veins, along with the power of mountains and rivers, at this moment were like steam expanded to the limit!
In this instant, the sword directly pierced into Dragon Fiend’s chest! Dragon Fiend let out a frenzied scream… At that moment, the sword in Su Zijun’s hand exploded with dazzling light!
But at this moment, Dragon Fiend’s hands suddenly grabbed Su Zijun’s arms… Instantly, a massive amount of black mud began surging from all directions, crazily drilling into Su Zijun’s body.
Poured in from her mouth, poured in from her ears, her face twisted in pain instantly.
Could it be… Gongsun Shiyu’s Huang Di Bloodline offset a small part of the God-Slaying Sword’s power?!!
“You want to perish with us? In your dreams!!” Dragon Fiend roared crazily: “Perfect timing, let’s change to another body… A legitimate royal successor, much more useful than Gongsun Shiyu!!”
The black mud still crazily poured into Su Zijun’s mouth… Her lips seemed about to split, and her throat seemed like it would pletely tear open!
The split black mud rolled up in an instant, contracting.
Su Zijun was thus consumed by the black mud bit by bit before Long Xiruo’s eyes.
Let go of your hands… maybe there’s still a chance.
Let go of your hands… let go of your hands…
What does the survival of the Divine Land have to do with me…
——Aren’t you tired!
Let go of your hands…
——Don’t take my ashes back to Xuanyuan Palace! I won’t be buried there even if I die!!
——What can you do?
Shout out his name… shout it.
Shout it.
“Hel…help me… help me——!!” Long Xiruo looked up, using all her strength.
She shouted out that name.
“Luo Qiu——!!!!”
The black mud pletely engulfed everything.
The True Dragon light, like a spark, finally extinguished.
…
“Hahahahahahahahaha——!!! We… won!! Won!! Won——!!”
In the darkness, the light that should have been extinguished suddenly flared up…but this was not the brilliance of the True Dragon’s power.
The instant the light flickered, the world formed by black mud was shattered, dispersed, as if blasted open, the light rippling…just like that, it brutally tore apart the world of black mud.
Su Zijun, slowly descended from the light, and finally her body, like a feather, floated down onto a pair of steady arms…held horizontally by the Boss.
At the moment the black mud was dispersed, Long Xiruo also emerged from the devouring of the black mud.
At this point, Luo Qiu was holding Su Zijun, descending from mid-air.
Su Zijun began to drift away from Luo Qiu’s arms, then flew towards Long Xiruo…she instinctively opened her hands and caught her. The painful expression from being engulfed by the black mud had disappeared from Su Zijun’s face, as if she were asleep.
“Ms. Su Zijun was still very obedient to you, Ms. Long,” Luo Qiu said softly, “In the end, she clearly could have called me.”
“She…is like me.” Long Xiruo looked at Su Zijun, at her sleeping face, “Stubborn in the same way, just as willful. It’s alright…it’s alright…”
Holding Su Zijun with all her strength, the feeling of regained loss made the True Dragon of the Divine Land unwittingly shed tears. She looked at Luo Qiu, sorrowfully saying, “Do you know? She was created…just a vessel. The Murderous God Sword unsheathed, her life could end at any moment. This was originally my destiny. No life of her own, destined from birth to serve humanitarianism.”
Luo Qiu listened quietly.
Time seemed to freeze.
Long Xiruo looked at Su Zijun for a long time, before finally looking at Luo Qiu, “You…name your condition, any kind of condition is acceptable.”
Luo Qiu looked at Long Xiruo, walked slowly to her, and extended his hand.
Luo Qiu’s palm came in front of Long Xiruo…the True Dragon of the Divine Land took a deep breath, seemingly realizing something, and slowly closed her eyes.
His fingers stopped in front of Long Xiruo’s eyes, then suddenly moved down, following her tears downward, reaching her cheek, and finally extracting the tears she shed.
Long Xiruo opened her eyes in surprise.
In the palm of Luo Qiu, there was a golden tear.
“What does this mean?”
“This is enough,” Luo Qiu said softly.
“Enough…enough?”
Long Xiruo opened her mouth in disbelief, as if she was meeting Luo Qiu for the first time.
From their first encounter, intermittent or direct contact, to that time in the basement, to now…what exactly was he thinking?
“Because this matter, in itself, does not involve any transaction,” Luo Qiu said calmly.
“What do you mean?” Long Xiruo frowned.
“I still have a shop to run, Ms. Long.” Luo Qiu smiled slightly, “For a better market environment, sometimes merchants have to invest a little. Moreover…”
“Moreover?”
“I still want Ms. Long, to bee more beautiful.” Luo Qiu said gently, “To bee more attractive to me, to move me more…of course, Ms. Su Zijun is the same. So before that, I will carefully keep it.”
The golden tear in Luo Qiu’s palm slowly transformed into a crystal.
Long Xiruo’s heart suddenly trembled.
“You really have the time, to flirt here!! Prepare to die!!!!”
…
“Prepare to die!!!”
The dispersed black mud, at this moment, crazily surged from all around the earth, meanwhile, Dragon Fiend’s ugly body flew through the air!
“Careful!”
Seeing Dragon Fiend’s sneak attack appear behind Luo Qiu, Long Xiruo exclaimed, and at the same time stomped on the ground forcefully, instantly employing the True Dragon’s power, causing the earth to shoot out sharp giant stones, blocking behind Luo Qiu.
Yet Dragon Fiend’s power remained strong, the sharp giant stones instantly dissolved, Dragon Fiend finally threw a punch at the back of Luo Qiu’s head…bang—!!!
Shaking the colossal power of Mount Tai’s peak!
Under this enormous impact, even with True Dragon’s power used to the limit, Long Xiruo was knocked away by the force, holding Su Zijun, and flew out—only, at the moment of smashing into the cliff, she was supported by a gentle force.
Dragon Fiend’s punch…did not break the Boss’s absolute defenses.
“I don’t believe it!!!”
The fist swung again, carrying powerful force, even the fist wind itself was enough to blow strong pressure capable of throwing people into the air!
This powerful force still could not penetrate the Boss’s body.
Luo Qiu slowly turned around.
“Power…infinite earth force!! I don’t believe it can’t be broken!!!” Dragon Fiend roared wildly.
Yet Luo Qiu’s expression suddenly turned cold, “Do you think it’s up to you…to possess this infinite power, to suppress the True Dragon.”
“What?” Dragon Fiend instantly felt terrified, instinctively retreating!
Luo Qiu extended his hand, palm opened, instantly, endless black mud frantically gushed out from Dragon Fiend’s body—like there was a black hole in the Boss’s palm, frantically devouring the black mud released from Dragon Fiend’s body!
“It’s me.”
