Legend of the Great Sage

Chapter 1427: Agitating

It took effect as he said the name of the ability. The spinning ball of light abruptly halted, locked in the middle of space. Soon afterwards, the ape hand grabbed it.

The Xuanming formation that enveloped several dozen kilometres continued to operate from inertia. The beams of light and inscriptions flashed about.

Twisted by the two powers, the ball of light shone blindingly. A column of light rushed into the sky from the mountains, dispersing the clouds. It was visible from thousands of kilometres away.

Ao Xuan suddenly sensed it and looked back. “Who’s infiltrated my dwelling!?”

In the sky, Gu Yanying looked back and smiled. “Ao Xuan, you’ve fallen for my trick. You’ve been lured away.”

Ao Xuan sneered. “Is this your little trick? Leading me away so that you can infiltrate the dwelling to save him? How foolish! I’ll capture all three of you and see just what you have to rely on. Xuanming formation, suppress them all!”

The ball of light began to spin, ripping through the locked space and becoming even more blinding.

Li Qingshan immediately felt like his surroundings were collapsing in on him.

The Xuanming formation had been completely activated, defending outwardly and suppressing inwardly to destroy all intruders. If he took even half a step back at a time like this and allowed Ao Xuan to control the formation, simply escaping would become difficult.

He sneered. His eyes shone brightly as he threw himself into the light like a moth to a flame.

The depths of the ball of light was the energy core to the entire formation. The beams of light and inscriptions criss-crossed and gathered together, tearing into his body like they were tangible, like he had been sentenced to slow slicing. However, he was completely unfazed. His heart was as deep as the ocean, calmly cracking open all of the obstacles.

The Yin Demon had only budged slightly before being casually suppressed by him. In the midst of battle, his heart was forged like steel, without any impure thoughts or perturbations. This was his gift.

“I found it!”

His eyes narrowed. The very depths of the ball of light was imprinted with the image of a black dragon. That was the only thing that existed in the formation beyond the laws and inscriptions. I was the imprint that Ao Xuan had left behind as the owner of the Xuanming dwelling. As long as he erased it, the entire formation would reset, becoming ownerless once more.

With a great howl, he clenched his fist that had been stripped of flesh forcefully. His bones clashed together as he slammed against the image with a punch.

Ao Xuan was extremely confident. He disregarded what was happening in the dwelling and continued to chase after Gu Yanying. Right when he was about to catch her, his expression suddenly changed, and he cried out, “How’s that possible!?”

The punch destroyed everything. The image shattered, and its aura dispersed. The formation abruptly came to a halt, dimming in glow and shutting down.

Li Qingshan was thrown out of the ball of light, landing in the agitated lake water.

Boom! Great waves rushed out of the abyss like the eruption of a volcano.

He plunged into the depths of the abyss, reaching where the colossal dragon slept. Most of his body had been stripped of flesh, revealing his white bones. His eyes were firmly shut while his lips were pursed, like he was unconscious.

“Ao Xuan, the dwelling is no longer yours. What else do you have to say?”

Gu Yanying spoke up to provoke Ao Xuan as she calculated that she would turn around and fly back to the Xuanming dwelling. She had to reunite with them if this bastard continued to chase her furiously. After all, only then would she stand a chance.

Ao Xuan’s thoughts were rather chaotic. If his dwelling had been breached by force, perhaps that would have been easier to accept. However, if the formation was destroyed, the formation disc in his possession would have shattered at the same time, but it was in perfect condition right now.

Then there was only one possibility—they possessed a formation disc to the Xuanming dwelling as well. Not only had they snuck into the dwelling to save the asura, but they had even gained control over the formation in an attempt to become the owner of the place.

All of the dwellings were the Myriad sect’s property, which was why he had handed his formation disc to the sect before he reincarnated. The formation disc definitely could not end up in the hands of others.

“The Myriad sect! It’s a disciple of the Myriad sect!”

Otherwise, if it had been an outsider, it would have been useless even if they occupied the dwelling. There was an explanation to everything. This had been a scheme right from the beginning.

Ao Xuan shot a vicious glance at Gu Yanying before turning around and flying back towards the Xuanming dwelling.

Gu Yanying wanted to chase after him and buy some more time, but she felt numb and out of power. Her wings that were originally as light as clouds had suddenly become extremely heavy. She had run out of energy a long time ago, but she actually failed to sense it during the intense flight.

Circling a few times through the air, she was forced to land in the ocean. Her hawk feathers that were originally white had all been dyed a dark azure now, having merged with Heaven-stirring’s feather completely. However, after coming into contact with the sea water, her feathers suddenly whistled away as wind.

She shivered inside and flapped her wings in a hurry, wanting to rise up, but her wings had become clumsy and powerless due to the loss of feathers. She stirred up even more splashes, and her wings became soaked, completely turning into wind that blew the water away.

With a thunk, her colossal body fell into the ocean, turning into a dark azure fish.

A kun.

Gu Yanying swept her tail clumsily. With a splash, a wave rose into the air.

Kunpengs had to assume the form of a kun first, diving into the ocean and waiting for the winds before turning into a peng, soaring through the air and ushering the clouds.

Regular birds only had to fly a few metres, stopping once they reached a tree, so they obviously did not have to go through this process. When hawks tried to fly, they had to embrace the danger of plunging down cliffs and being smashed to pieces, let alone kunpeng.

Gu Yanying had first been a hawk, gradually turning into a kunpeng after obtaining Heaven-stirring’s feather, so she could spread her wings first and assume the form of a peng slightly, but that still was not a true kunpeng. Only when she faced the fourth heavenly tribulation and unleashed this power to its limit did it merge with her bloodline and soul completely. She plunged into the ocean out of exhaustion, assuming the form of a kun!

“Sigh, why now of all times?” Gu Yanying had no idea how she should feel about this. She said to a Skull Prayer Bead helplessly, “I’ve encountered an accident. I probably won’t be able to make it back in time to help out.”

Afterwards, she mustered all of her strength and swung her tail. With a great leap, she produced a great splash before landing back in the ocean with a boom. She swam off in the direction of the Xuanming dwelling.

Xiao An nodded. A white kasaya and a long, blood-red banner began to dance.

At that instant, a thick, red colour spread out from under her feet, dyeing the waves and turning it into a sea of blood. All of the creatures in the water perished.

Then she slowly drew the Buddha Slaying sword. Her form of white bone overlapped with her great beauty vaguely, making the red mole on her forehead stand out. Right behind her was the Xuanming dwelling. Retreating was definitely not a concept in this battle.

Between the sea and sky, the dragon returned to its den, piercing through the air.

The sword swept past in front of her gently. The sea of blood reached for the skies, intercepting the dragon’s path. Countless skeletons burst out of the bloody wave, swimming towards Ao Xuan.

With a swing of her left hand, the Skull Prayer Beads flew out with swishes.

Only then did she raise her head and look over. Her clear eyes burned with fire.

Ao Xuan was surprised. “It’s you!” Then who was the person in the dwelling right now? Not only had they obtained the formation disc to the Xuanming dwelling, but they had even managed to make their way in so quickly before disabling the Xuanming dwelling and erasing his imprint.

The mountains and ocean that he was originally most familiar with had now become contaminated and swallowed by the sea of blood, like some unknown monster was lurking inside.

The Skull Prayer Bead in Li Qingshan’s possession had been ground to pieces long ago when he cast himself into the ball of light.

It was deathly silent in the abyss.

A voice urged him. “Wake up! Now is still not the time to sleep!”

With a flash of scarlet light, Li Qingshan opened his eyes. He noticed that the voice had come from the Yin Demon making trouble at the bottom of his heart.

With a great roar, he rose up with his damaged body and kicked down with his feet. The earth cracked, the mountains shook, and the dragon’s pool collapsed.

Like an arrow, he pierced through the turbulent waves and shot into the air from the bottom of the abyss.
