Chapter 1153: Chapter 97: Raising Its Head
Wolong Mountain Villa.
Time has gradually passed—since the precursor of the Spiritual Treasure eruption, more than half an hour has already passed, and the Tianxin Seventy-First Generation, holding the second Earth Spirit Sword, has still not moved.
He seems to have transformed into an ancient stone statue.
Lai Caisheng, using mana to transform, has created the Divine Land Mountain and River Map, with twelve ancestral veins converging from all directions, now lurking beneath Mount Tai.
They e from various parts of China, whether from the extremely north, the south, or the east, covering thousands of miles in an instant… Yet the twelve ancestral veins, lurking beneath Mount Tai, have not burst forth from the earth at this moment.
“What’s going on… Why are the ancestral veins lying dormant? They should have erupted by now!”
The first to lose patience is Du Lin. At this moment, his brow is furrowed deeply, pacing back and forth, with agitation clearly written all over his face.
“Could something have gone wrong?”
Mo Mo has been sharpening the knife continuously, always ready to strike the Tianxin Seventy-First Generation and the present generation master and disciple with a sword… Reincarnation has taken fifteen years, and he clearly understands that when it’s time not to reason, there’s no need to speak much of the great Tao.
“If even this amount of time cannot suppress it, then naturally, the true dragon of China does not deserve the name of true dragon,” Lai Caisheng slowly opened his eyes, “In the depths beneath Mount Tai, China’s strongest two or three forces are confronting each other, and my divine sense temporarily cannot penetrate… But judging from this situation, it shouldn’t take much longer.”
“Really?” Mo Mo lowered his head and sneered coldly, “I say Representative Lai, you wouldn’t just be guessing by now, would you?”
“Oh? Why do you think so?”
“You have no confidence at all, the move you left at the summit of Mount Tai cannot deal with the true dragon… You’re just gambling.”
“Mo Mo, the concept of the invincible true dragon, I think won’t be unfamiliar to anyone,” Lai Caisheng said calmly, “I ask you, using the True Dragon’s power, how long would it take to resolve an issue? This Spiritual Energy eruption involves a wide range, and I believe the true dragon would not hold back, certainly acting with all its might. Since this is the case, time has already passed, but it has not been resolved yet. What do you think?”
Mo Mo gave Lai Caisheng a slight smile, and immediately his face turned cold after smiling. Then, purple lightning flashed across on the black peachwood sword in his hand, and it shot out directly from Mo Mo’s hand, piercing straight towards Lai Caisheng.
However, this clothed Taoist, the Tianxin Seventy-Two Generations, is probably the most powerful person within China’s mana today… This peachwood sword, attached with the supreme Thunder Technique of Dragon Tiger Dao, could not penetrate within a foot of Lai Caisheng’s body.
“Mo Mo, you should understand that you can’t hurt me.”
“I wasn’t planning on dealing with you,” Mo Mo shrugged, and in just a moment, his figure disappeared without a trace.
When Mo Mo’s figure reappeared, he was already behind the Tianxin Seventy-First Generation… He pinched his hand into a sword gesture and directly pointed at the back of the Tianxin Seventy-First Generation’s neck.
“宿地成寸…” Du Lin suddenly shivered, and the Great Demon Biyu Qilin roared at this moment, revealing its original form again.
Not far away, Miss Gong, who was waiting quietly under the crystal tree, also secretly stirred the Xuan Gong within her body.
Unexpectedly, Lai Caisheng waved his hand at this moment, signaling Du Lin and Miss Gong to retreat, “Mr. Mo Mo just wants some assurance and means no harm… You should step back.”
The huge eyes of the Jade Kirin stared firmly at Mo Mo, and after a while, they gradually contracted, returning to human form.
“Representative Lai is truly generous.” Mo Mo’s fingertip pressed against a critical point on the back of the Tianxin Seventy-First Generation, and with a slight exertion of mana, it’s feared that the Tianxin Seventy-First Generation could only give a last cry, equivalent to his life and death being in Mo Mo’s hands.
Mo Mo spoke in a relaxed tone, “Dragon Tiger Mountain has some calculations but I find them troublesome, so I’ve never learned them. To calculate, I definitely can’t beat you. But a fool has a fool’s way, and I am a fool, so I can only use the fool’s way.”
“Mr. Mo Mo is not a fool, you’re the clearest person I’ve ever seen,” Lai Caisheng smiled slightly and then gently pushed his hand.
The peachwood sword, suspended in front of him, was thus pushed and shot out, precisely landing beside Mo Mo, slanting and inserting into the ground.
Lai Caisheng suddenly said: “I entrust them to you.”
Them?
Mo Mo’s heart was startled, yet at this moment, he heard the sound of beasts’ cries from the sky. Seeing ghost flames lighting up.
Several Yin Bulls were pulling the carriage… On the carriage, surprisingly, are Xiao Shengmo, as well as the Fiery Cloud Evil God and Qingxia Zi Blind Sir whom Mo Mo had met a few times.
…
The carriage quickly circled the place filled with crystal trees and then landed directly.
Xiao Shengmo at this moment rolled up his robe and withdrew the cattle cart… Blind Sir and Fiery Cloud Evil God stood on either side of Xiao Shengmo.
The Fiery Cloud Evil God’s abdomen was no longer oozing blood, seemingly having undergone simple hemostasis and dressing during the journey… However, this strongest of China’s human beings, now looks pale as paper, seemingly trying hard to hold on.
Whether it is Xiao Shengmo or Blind Sir and Fiery Cloud Evil God, when they see Mo Mo holding the Tianxin Seventy-First Generation hostage, they are extremely surprised—not only surprised that Mo Mo would appear here, but also surprised by what he has acplished.
“Are you that junior from Dragon Tiger Mountain?” Fiery Cloud Evil God opened his mouth, still unable to hide the astonishment in his eyes.
The alliance is not right, the bloody battle at the summit of Mount Tai, yet the main instigator Tianxin has not appeared. This time, if it weren’t for Lord Xiao from Ghost City appearing, bringing him and the blind man here, no one would have thought that the mastermind behind the scenes still had this move behind the scenes.
But how did this junior from Dragon Tiger Mountain discover it?
“Senior, time is pressing, there’s no time for formalities.” Mo Mo quickly said at this time, “Please listen to my words. Mo Mo hopes that several seniors will not act impulsively… At least, before I take action, you should remain calm.”
The Fiery Cloud Evil God furrowed his brows, while Lord Xiao’s gaze swept over everyone, the sinister face revealing none of his true thoughts.
Blind Sir suddenly took a step forward at this moment… He had already seen Lai Caisheng, and as for the Tianxin Seventy-First Generation, he was even more familiar as his senior brother from decades ago.
At the same time, a descendant of the Clothed Daoist.
“You… you plan to open another breach?” Mr. Blind furrowed his brows at this moment.
Lai Caisheng nodded, unexpectedly made a bow towards Mr. Blind, “Caisheng, greets Martial Uncle.”
“You… what exactly do you and your master want to do?” Mr. Blind stepped forward again.
Lai Caisheng replied indifferently, “The Seven-Star Spirit Summoning Array was originally created by Martial Uncle in your earlier years. My master and I have merely delved deeper into its foundation… Martial Uncle, why not calculate it?”
Mr. Blind didn’t hesitate, his fingers quickly moved, and after a while, his expression slightly changed, “Opening another breach, reducing the power of the spiritual energy storm? This is the battlefield of the Dragon Fiend battle years ago, the place where the Evil Dragon’s body fell… Mount Tai’s dragon spine… So, that’s how it is!! I should have realized a long time ago, I should have realized!”
“Blind Man, what the hell are you talking about?” Fiery Cloud Evil God said in a deep voice.
At this moment, Mr. Blind resolutely turned around, his face looking grim, yet he extended his hand to block, he took a deep breath and said: “Old fool, Lord Xiao… Just now, this young friend was right. Here, we cannot advance further.”
“Damn it!! At this point, you’re telling me you want to defect?” Fiery Cloud Evil God’s eyes widened, raising his palm. Despite being weak, this man who once rubbed the Divine Land’s Daoist Fiend into the ground had a terrifying aura unparalleled in the world.
“Trust me.” Mr. Blind sighed, “Can’t let more people die… What they want to do is to reduce the destruction caused by the outburst of spiritual energy.”
“What did you say?!” Fiery Cloud Evil God paused, his terrifying aura leaking out.
“I don’t have time to explain in detail now.” Mr. Blind took another deep breath and said, “If you want to fight, I’m not enough for you… just, you need to wait. Trust me.”
Facing off, confronting.
“Blind Man… remember, don’t give me a reason to draw the Tiger Soul Knife against you.” Fiery Cloud Evil God breathed out slowly, lowering his hands.
“Lord Xiao?” Mr. Blind again looked towards Xiao Shengmo.
Xiao Shengmo said indifferently, “Qingxia Zi, the task of this City Lord is merely to bring you here… What you Clothed Daoists intend to do is unrelated to this City Lord.”
How many died, whether they were Daoists or humans, whether spiritual energy would erupt, meant little to Xiao Shengmo—because he was someone who had already died.
The eruption of spiritual energy, reaching far and wide, wouldn’t affect Fengdu Ghost City… If now the situation of the Shen Zhou Yin Spirits was already overflowing, adding so many ‘people’ at once would be quite troubling for Ghost City, Xiao Shengmo might even prefer this headache to happen.
Because by then, whether it’s True Dragon or other beings, they’d have to find ways to manage so many Yin Spirits… this is what Xiao Shengmo is more inclined to see happen.
It can be said that the Ghost Tribe might be the party pletely staying out of this conflict.
Thus, Xiao Shengmo simply moved aside, sat down cross-legged, acting as if he neither heard nor saw.
Mr. Blind nodded towards Xiao Shengmo, making a bow from afar.
Despite this, Fiery Cloud Evil God was still somewhat impatient, eyeing Mo Mo from afar, “Young one from Dragon Tiger Mountain, you better hold on tight, don’t tremble! If anything happens, stab this guy to death immediately! Whatever happens, I’ll cover it!”
“Senior, you truly are…” Mo Mo forced a smile.
If this had happened yesterday, I might have really trembled, right?
A fierce wind suddenly swept down from the sky, with a massive wind pressure instantly ‘cutting away’ more than half of the ‘crystal trees.’
“Tianxin Seventy-One Generations, e forward to face your death!!!”
Roaring voices… and amidst the storm, a huge Azure Dragon body coiled in the sky above Wolong Mountain Villa… Besides the fierce wind, there was also blazing flames within!
Amidst the flames is a voluptuous body.
“Cang Jinshui… Qu Xinghe? How did these two troublesome spirits get here…” Fiery Cloud Evil God’s eyebrows furrowed immediately.
Seeing this fiery storm ing, Du Lin directly collided with it, dispersing the fiery storm… Above Wolong Mountain Villa, the giant Azure Dragon shrank down and landed, revealing the presence of Cang Jinshui of the Azure Dragon Clan.
Qu Xinghe descended afterward, standing beside Cang Jinshui.
Besides just Cang Jinshui and Qu Xinghe, afterward, Ming Tus Mountain, the White Tiger Clan, after Huang Baifu disappeared, the temporary mander, also appeared.
At this moment, in the night sky, there were over ten figures, either riding on clouds or stepping on Flying Swords!
“Daoist Bai Jie, True Person Huanyang… Huangmu… how have all these guys e?” Fiery Cloud Evil God’s eyebrows never relaxed.
“Evil God, we saw Lord Xiao’s vehicle flash by.” Daoist Bai Jie was the first to speak: “Upon Mount Tai, there is now True Dragon intervening, surely resolving the issue. We have e to lend you support! Seems like we arrived just in time.”
“Time my ass! You’re here to add to my chaos… isn’t my chaos already enough!” Fiery Cloud Evil God roared into the sky, “Quiet down, none of you move first!!”
Daoist Bai Jie was immediately taken aback, furrowing his brows.
But beside him, True Person Huanyang spoke solemnly: “Evil God, the instigators of this disaster, the sinners are right here, why can’t we take action? Please clarify, Evil God!”
Explanation?
Damn, I’d love to explain!! Fiery Cloud Evil God hadn’t calmed down his anger, ready to speak, but Mr. Blind blocked him.
“Everyone.” Mr. Blind at this moment faced the onlookers and the authority of the demons, saying solemnly: “This place is tied to the safety of tens of millions of people in China, as well as national stability… Please do not act recklessly. I will explain clearly.”
Silence enveloped the surroundings.
Mr. Blind opened his mouth again—right at that moment, a projectile of light shot towards him at an incredibly tricky angle, a sneaky attack, but fortunately, Mr. Blind used a Secret Technique to stimulate his body’s skills and powers, barely evading it.
However, his arm was damaged, and instantly blood gushed out.
“Qingxia Zi! How dare you appear within China again!! Decades ago, you brought the disaster of the Dragon Fiend, causing the death of my entire sect, thirty-seven people in total! My junior brothers, my master all died tragically at the hands of the Dragon Fiend… How do you still have the face to return!!”
By True Person Huanyang’s side, an old Taoist stared angrily, his Mana surging to the skies, impulsively charging forward!
“No wonder the person collaborating with the Evil God feels so familiar, turns out it’s you… Qingxia Zi! You deserve death!!!” Another angry shout rang out.
“Everyone, Qingxia Zi truly should not be entering China.” Mr. Blind said solemnly at this moment: “But right now, what matters is the fort of China and the lives of tens of millions of citizens… I hope everyone can hold your actions for now!”
Saying this, Mr. Blind still lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt publicly.
He raised his head to face the eyes that wished to devour him, and said mournfully: “Qingxia Zi acknowledges his guilt, having lived secretly for decades… At this moment, I know speaking further is useless. I only hope everyone can wait for a while longer, afterwards, no matter how you handle me, I, Qingxia Zi, will not resist, free for you to execute! I implore you, for the sake of tens of millions of citizens, to wait just a moment longer!”
…
“President, this…”
True Person Huanyang reluctantly glanced at Daoist Bai Jie… He knew about the matter decades ago, Daoist Bai Jie’s dear disciple also died from the Dragon Fiend disaster, she was Kunlun’s most outstanding disciple, Daoist Bai Jie devoted his life’s teachings onto her.
Daoist Bai Jie at this moment took a deep sigh, “After so many years, why still not let go… The deceased are as such.”
“President, what do you mean?”
“Listen to him.” Bai Jie shook his head and sighed, “Qingxia Zi’s nature is not bad, he just took a wrong step back then, but now it’s irreparable.”
True Person Huanyang gritted his teeth, coldly said: “President, for your sake, I… I can wait a bit longer. However, afterwards, I truly cannot let this person go… President ought to know, Huanyang’s Dao panion also died tragically in the Dragon disaster.”
“Things have their fate, forcing is useless. Follow your own path.” Daoist Bai Jie sighed, slowly settling down, sitting beneath a tree, closing his eyes.
Mr. Blind subconsciously let out a breath… Daoist Bai Jie speaking up amounts to giving him a favor.
Yet… a sharp knife suddenly pierced through Mr. Blind’s back!
Only to see a hideous face appear behind Mr. Blind, extraordinarily sinister and horrifying, “This time you Cloth Daoists created this disaster, decades ago it was also you Cloth Daoists creating disaster… You are all indeed a plague of snakes and rats!!! I won’t believe you!! Qingxia Zi, return my son’s life!!”
It was… Daoist Huang Mu!
This was like a signal.
In an instant, countless thoughts in the crowd and demons’ hearts erupted wildly… Huang Mu’s attack immediately ignited the temporarily peaceful situation!
The second to attack was Azure Dragon Cang Jinshui, transforming once again into the Azure Dragon form, “Tianxin Seventy-One Generations, Lai Caisheng! It’s all your fault, deceiving my father… Were it not for you, why would he have died!! I, Cang Jinshui, cannot swallow this grudge!!!”
“Cang Jinshui, stop your insolence!!”
Watching the Azure Dragon advance, Du Lin roared, crashing into him head-on!
“You Jade Kirin Clan, helping Cloth Daoists cause chaos!! You disgrace the title of Auspicious Beast!! You shall die now!!”
The Azure Dragon and Kirin instantly clashed fiercely.
At this moment, Fiery Cloud Evil God suddenly launched a palm, knocking Daoist Huang Mu away, hurriedly supporting Mr. Blind, sealing the acupoints near his wound with his fingers.
Though two Taoists, at this moment, eyed bloodthirstily and assaulted Mr. Blind again.
“Take action!! Eliminate this Cloth Dao!!”
“The President said, wait a moment longer! Do not act impulsively!!”
“You Bai Jie, you Huanyang may endure, I cannot endure!! Grudge of kin-slaying, cannot be forgiven!! Whoever blocks me, dies!!”
“Die!!”
From a nameless angry shout, in an instant, an enormous surge of Mana and demonic power gathered within Wolong Mountain Villa, stirring the storm clouds.
Mo Mo still held Tianxin Seventy-One Generations hostage, and at this moment did not choose to act… but was secretly anxious.
The Dao Monster side overwhelmingly outnumbered… Tianxin Seventy-One Generations needed to oversee the breach opening, unable to move, as for Lai Caisheng, he too showed no intention of acting, relying only on Du Lin and Miss Gong, how could they withstand the assault of the Dao and Demon’s bined forces?
Qingxia Zi at this moment was heavily wounded by ambush.
“Enough… Caisheng, lend me your strength.”
At this moment, Tianxin Seventy-One Generations slowly opened his eyes… like a statue, he finally showed a hint of vitality.
Lai Caisheng shook his head, “Still… let me instead.”
“No! You absolutely cannot act! You must not touch this karma!” Tianxin Seventy-One Generations sternly shouted, resolutely raising the earth in his hands.
In this instant, the entire area surrounding Wolong Mountain Villa was crazily agitated.
“What do you want to do! Don’t move!” Mo Mo shouted deeply, with mana gathering at his fingertips into a sharp point, piercing half an inch into the neck of the Tianxin Seventy-First Generation.
“Mo Mo!!” The Tianxin Seventy-First Generation shouted angrily.
“I said you are not allowed to move!!” Mo Mo, at this moment, seemed truly furious, letting out an unprecedented roar.
But amidst the chaos of battle, Mo Mo’s roar was drowned out… yet at this moment, a long sigh echoed, reaching everyone’s ears.
It was the sigh of Representative Lai.
In an instant, a terrifying mana emanated from Representative Lai… This terrifying mana instantly made the air unbearably heavy.
It suppressed Daoist Bai Jie, suppressed the frenzied Cang Jinshui, and even forced the Fiery Cloud Evil God to kneel on the ground… it suppressed everyone.
“In this world… is there really such a realm of mana?!!”
Countless fear-filled eyes converged on Representative Lai… only the Tianxin Seventy-First Generation was inexplicably furious, “I said, you’re not allowed to touch this cause and effect!!”
“If successful, this cause and effect would not count as a sin and naturally doesn’t matter. If unsuccessful… what talk of cause, effect, and merit.” Representative Lai slowly shook his head.
Everyone looked at him.
He looked at Qingxia Zi.
“Uncle Master… May I borrow your Heavenly Eye.”
As he spoke, Representative Lai waved and pulled Mr. Blind directly to him… that overwhelming mana, pure pressure, still pushed everyone’s heads down, their bodies even sinking into the ground.
At this moment, Representative Lai lightly pointed his finger at Mr. Blind’s eyes, and Mr. Blind let out a scream of pain… It was not only the pain of having his eyes gouged, but the Heavenly Eye was also linked to his very soul!
A pair of pale golden eyes fell into Representative Lai’s palm… the eyes slowly transformed and finally merged into a rhombus-shaped crystal.
Mr. Blind weakly collapsed on the ground at this time.
With the crystal in his left hand… while Representative Lai’s right hand pressed against his own chest.
A glimmer of golden light appeared on his chest, slowly peeling away from Representative Lai’s body… a look of pain flashed across his face.
“Heart of Heaven… it’s the Heart of Heaven! Heart of Heaven!”
On the ground, Mr. Blind, with blood streaming from his eyes, could only listen, could only feel… yet could feel the emergence of the Heart of Heaven!
In that instant, the brilliance of the Heart of Heaven and the Heavenly Eye shone on each other… in the rays of light, time seemed to pletely stop.
All… everything at this moment seemed to freeze in the crevice of time.
Even the wind stopped… everything was quiet.
“What happened?” Mr. Blind listened around, but couldn’t hear any sound at all.
“Oh, foolish child, foolish child… you are still entangled in this cause and effect.” The Tianxin Seventy-First Generation sighed, looking suddenly much older, “This time, you stepped in, touched the cause and effect… after the spiritual energy outbreak, no matter how much credit you have, how can you deceive the heaven and cross the sea?”
“Master, it’s almost time.” Representative Lai said indifferently at this time: “Thanks to Uncle Master’s Heavenly Eye, I was able to glimpse a bit of the situation under Mount Tai… the first ancestral dragon vein is about to raise its head.”
The Tianxin Seventy-First Generation closed his eyes, a look of pain on his face… and a mournful sigh.
“Senior Brother… Senior Brother?!!!”
Mr. Blind struggled to get up from the ground, “Senior Brother… why did you let me return to the country, was it merely to obtain my Heavenly Eye? You’ve sent people to capture me several times… just because of the Heavenly Eye, right? You speak of… deceiving the heaven and crossing the sea, what exactly does it mean!!! Sacrificing millions, such grave sins… how dare you speak of great merit!! How dare you!! Are you trying to make the inheritance of Clothed Daoist extinct like this! Answer me!! Answer me!! Forty years ago, was my mistake not enough!! Have you all forgotten the creed of Clothed Daoist!! Have you forgotten Master’s teachings!!”
“I haven’t forgotten… I never forget Master’s teachings.” The Tianxin Seventy-First Generation suddenly opened his eyes, holding the Earth Spirit Sword, with eyes furious and hair bristling, “We study this Feng Shui, we learn the Tao of Yin and Yang, we seek fortune and avoid misfortune, invert Yin and Yang, defy Heaven only for the sake of the mon people!”
“Then why do you want this spiritual energy awakening, harming millions of innocents?!” Mr. Blind’s eyes were streaming blood, “Tell me, is this for the mon people?”
“The spiritual energy awakening is the operation of the Heavenly Dao, unchangeable… I don’t believe you with the Heavenly Eye have not glimpsed the heavenly secrets!” The Tianxin Seventy-First Generation said deeply: “You have seen blood flowing like rivers, you have seen the war between the Dao and Monster, mountains and rivers shattered, the nation destroyed, mon people suffering, even the world collapsing… your Heavenly Eye can see all this, can my Heart of Heaven, hurriedly passed down by Master before death, remain unaware? Qingxia Zi, I saw it earlier! I saw it much earlier! From the moment I inherited the Heart of Heaven, I already saw it! The Heavenly Dao collapsing, the Dao and Monster destroyed in an instant… I saw it much earlier than you!”
Pointing at the Earth Spirit Sword, at this moment, the aura of the Tianxin Seventy-First Generation expanded wildly, and at the same time, his appearance aged rapidly, in a blink of an eye, he was already white-haired, “This world is doomed, irreversible! Even if it’s not me, it’s someone else! The spiritual energy awakening will eventually appear! Since the Heavenly Dao is like this, why not let me be the one to meet the calamity, invert Yin and Yang, and grasp that sliver of hope!”
“Clothed Daoist learned this skill of inverting Yin and Yang precisely to act against Heaven, didn’t they? Since Heaven wants to destroy the Dao and Monster, since Heaven wants to destroy the mon people, I’ll let the mon people live well!”
“I’ll let the Shenzhou Dao Realm bee glorious once again!”
“For every person that the eruption of spiritual energy kills, I will save one!”
A dragon’s roar resounded in Heaven and Earth… a golden and silver dragon shadow at this moment shot up into the sky from the depths beneath Mount Tai.
The Tianxin Seventy-First Generation roared to the sky.
“I meet the calamity, what harm is there in mitting great sin! The mon people… I must save!”
He, at this moment, raised the Spirit Sword high, and suddenly plunged it down!
The earth cracked, the dragon shadow appeared, the silver dragon raised its head, and its brilliance illuminated Heaven and Earth.
