Chapter 395 Crazy Sparrow
The extremely violent power was constantly twisting on the altar. It seemed that the slightest rebellion would burn the master.
With his face turning red, he stood on the altar and suffered the thunder entering in his body. He even felt that his soul was being separated from his body, which was the disadvantage of walk-in.
“Go to h.e.l.l!”
A violent screaming turned into a spike in the soul and shot out. The sparrow was penetrated by the spike off guard, and immediately let out a cry of despair that didn’t sound like a human voice in the cave.
It was not Yan Ziye and those with him that took the move, but Shuiqing Rover who had been serving the sparrow for 100 years and was now standing respectfully under the altar.
Yan Ziye watched this in amazement, while Shuiqing Rover was staring at the sparrow on the altar with hatred in his eyes, looking livid.
“I should have thought that the master died long ago. You… should go to h.e.l.l!”
He was the servant of Heaven Rover, but they did not agree on the contract of the soul. He had a tragic childhood, but was saved by Heaven Rover. Although Heaven Rover did not require him to do anything, he voluntarily followed him as a slave. He had been very loyal to his master, even when he reached the cultivation of Yuanying Realm as time pa.s.sed.
Over the past 100 years, his master suddenly became harsh on him, but he didn’t and wouldn’t think too much.
Not until the sparrow revealed his real soul under the bombardment of thunder, did he finally despair… His master was really dead.
“b.a.s.t.a.r.d, how dare you to disobey me!”
A sharp cry came from Heaven Rover. It was not a human being after all. After seriously injured and irritated, it immediately lost its mind and hit Shuiqing Rover with a thunder. Then, the thunder in the altar was immediately triggered, and a large amount of electric arcs were transmitted along the body of Heaven Rover. The cave was full of thunder in the blink of an eye.
“Oh no!”
At the surging thunder, Old Lady Duhua’s face changed drastically. Yan Ziye frowned anxiously and opened a defensive s.h.i.+eld. The thunder was blasting on it, with the endless sound of crackling. After a few seconds, the s.h.i.+eld was blasted as thin as a paper. .
“Let me help you!”
Old Lady Duhua gave a low cry, and slapped her hands on the ground. The force of Yuanying rushed out, and the s.h.i.+eld that should have been broken immediately thickened. However, the thickening was not fast enough to resist the blasting.
“Me too!”
Dongfang Yi touched the s.h.i.+eld with one hand, and injected his genuine energy into the s.h.i.+eld. However, he couldn’t help being discouraged at the futility of his cultivation.
Several minutes later, Yan Ziye and the others turned pale, while Dongfang Yi was so exhausted that he fell to the ground and gasped for breath.
“Phew…”
Yan Ziye took a long breath, gasped slightly, and looked at Heaven Rover who turned into a scorched corpse on the altar.
Although that evil spirit was mad, it still had the instinct of self-protection after escaping from the physical body of Heaven Rover. Therefore, it walked in Shuiqing Rover for protection.
“Shuiqing Rover can’t hold on for long. Besides, after the thunder on the altar is triggered, the evil spirit goes carzy and the thunder continues. We can’t hold on for long, either.”
Yan Ziye said in a low voice after recognizing the situation. Old Lady Duhua was about to speak, when she suddenly saw three figures coming together into the s.h.i.+eld.
After Yan Ziye saw the incoming people clearly, he opened a gap for them. By doing so, he let a trace of thunder in, making everyone suddenly feel paralyzed, with their faces turning blue.
“What kind of thunder is so powerful?!”
Xuan Meiji sat on the ground dispiritedly and panted heavily. They didn’t know the overall situation and had no time to prepare on the way. If the three of them had not together resisted the thunder, they would have died on the road.
“You come just in time!”
Old Lady Duhua smiled, “We can hold on for a long time if we take turns.”
“Aye.”
The pract.i.tioner surnamed Huang agreed and took time to restore the force of Yuanying.
Yan Ziye glanced at them and didn’t ask much. Not surprisingly, these people were all guided by Dongfang Wuxue. It was impossible for Dongfang Wuxue to completely rely on him. One more person meant a bit more hope.
It seemed to be true.
Snow Child didn’t seem to take much efforts. However, when he put his little white hands on the s.h.i.+eld, the s.h.i.+eld was greatly thickened.
Yan Ziye suddenly felt released. He looked at Snow Child in amazement, without saying anything, and focused on the altar again.
“Boom – ”
In the boundless thunder, Heaven Rover had been electrocuted into ashes, while Shuiqing Rover was kept intact by the evil spirit with special methods.
He was still struggling, but the time was less. It would not take much time for him to be completely walked in.
“We can’t just wait. We should find an opportunity to kill this evil spirit!”
Yan Ziye said in a deep and low voice, and the three newcomers showed different expressions. This was enough for them to imagine the whole process.
Suffering from waiting for the opportunity, everyone was trying to recover the force of Yuanying. Shuiqing Rover was about to wake up.
Three… two… one…
“Half. Let’s do it!”
Yan Ziye growled, and the five people rushed out without any hesitation. Those who could live now were sophisticated. If they were selfish at this moment, they would probably die immediately!
The sparrow, who was still controlling the body, opened his eyes with no whites, and said with a ferocious expression, “You dirty rats dared to interfere with my plan. Go to h.e.l.l!!”
He snapped his fingers of right hand, and immediately triggered the blue starlights in the cave, converging into a blue spirit whip. It was thrown towards Yan Ziye and the others, like a spirit snake.
Yan Ziye, who rushed to the forefront, immediately changed his face when he saw this. His hands turned into shadows, and a seal was formed instantly. Then, he growled, “Come out! Dragnet!”
Swoos.h.i.+ng!
A giant net appearing out of thin air came to shroud the spirit whip, but the spirit whip penetrated the giant net without any difficulty and continued to lash towards them.
“Heh heh heh… If even such a small skill can trap my soul whip, how can I live till now?!”
The evil spirit laughed wildly. Yan Ziye’s pupils constricted suddenly.
“Oh no! This spirit whip comes at the soul. Be careful!”
As soon as these words came out, Snow Child in the crowd did not retreat but moved forward. He opened his mouth slightly and said softly, “Stop!!”
The whip that had been swiftly waving immediately stopped in the air.
“Decree upon Calling Method? This kind of trick is still being learned… d.a.m.n it!”
The evil spirit uttered angrily. Apparently, he recognized this method.
Yan Ziye was also slightly moved in his heart. Coming from a great sect, he had naturally heard of this method. Those who had cultivated this method had to be reticent, or even dumb. His voice could only be heard when he was performing the skill.
It turned out to be the reason why Snow Child didn’t speak all the way.
“With my cultivation, I can only last for five breaths, so hurry up.”
The four of them heard a slightly anxious sound transmitted by Snow Child at the same time. Yan Ziye instantly pulled himself together and laughed, “Five breaths are enough!!”
He touched the storage ring on his finger, and a flying sword gleaming with cold light immediately appeared in his palm.
He made no move, but the flying sword shot out like an electric light, enlarging against the storm and attracting the surrounding thunder on its surface.
“Void Sword, cut!!”
Within a second, the giant electric sword penetrated through the body of Shuiqing Rover, and plunged into the hard rock wall.
Time was up.
Snow Child collapsed on the ground, breathing hastily at the spirit whip. He saw it hang down weakly and dispersed into blue starlights floating above the cave.
Splas.h.i.+ng –
Shuiqing Rover was split in half, with his blood and internal organs scattered on the ground.
“Void Sword！ You are Yan Ziye from Void Sword Sect, who disappeared 1000 years ago!”
When Snow Child’s voice appeared in Yan Ziye’s awareness sea, a hint of shock appeared on his indifferent face.
“Ahem…”
Yan Ziye was sitting on the ground, with blood pouring out of his mouth. Hearing Snow Child’s voice, he grinned forcibly, with the expression of self-mockery.
“I don’t want the t.i.tle of Void Sword, but now I use it to save my life. It’s ridiculous…”
The thunder in the nothingness gradually dissipated, and soon even mortals could bear it. Dongfang Yi holding Su Li on his back, walked over with unspeakable excitement in his heart.
The sparrow was gone, and everything seemed to be settled. If he got the recognition of thunder, he could save his father.
But right at this moment, an arc light invisible to human eyes suddenly appeared out of thin air, and shot into the mind of the pract.i.tioner surnamed Huang, who was the most relaxed.
“No, Fellow Pract.i.tioner Huang!”
Xuan Meiji exclaimed, but had no time to stop. She watched him rus.h.i.+ng towards the altar under the sparrow’s control.
At the same time, a frantic howling sounded in the cave.
“Dirty rats, why do you interfere with me!! My life is screwed up and you… should all go down with me!”
The sparrow opened the transparent barrier that cut off the thunder, and threw a white flame condensed in his hands into the barrier.
After doing this, the pract.i.tioner surnamed Huang fell feebly on the edge of the altar and became an empty sh.e.l.l without soul.
“That is the origin of its soul. Oh no, it wants to…”
Xuan Meiji freaked out. She knew the sparrow’s intention, but it was too late to stop it. Old Lady Duhua couldn’t catch up with fellow pract.i.tioner Huang who was outstanding at speed, and Yan Ziye and Snow Child, who were hiding their skills, were too weak to fight.
“Fine. It’s over…”
Seeing the white flame increasingly blowing up in the barrier, Yan Ziye gave a bitter smile and closed his eyes.
“I can’t believe that I will die here.”
Snow Child bit his lip. Powerful as the Decree upon Calling Method was, it needed the support of cultivation accordingly. He could no longer reverse the ending.
“Father…”
Dongfang Yi was full of unwillingness, and murmured. When he was about to die, he still thought about his father.
“Alas…”
At this moment, he suddenly heard a sigh and followed the direction.
His eyes were widened immediately.
Boom!!!
White light cloaked everything, and everyone was desperate. Apart from a loud noise, nothing can be heard.
Only Dongfang Yi was struggling for a miracle because of that sigh.
And Heaven seemed to hear his prayer, or… Su Li heard it.
The white light dissipated –
Yan Ziye was bewildered for a moment, when he saw that his own injuries remained the same and nothing changed around.
How could it be…
After the thunder went out of control, how did he remain intact?
Or… was he dead?!
“I… I’m not dead?”
Xuan Meiji squeezed her arm and felt aching. She was crying and laughing, with a hint of seductiveness on her face, which made her seem to be young and innocent.
Snow Child pursed his mouth, and couldn’t help but smile.
Old Lady Duhua also sighed and chuckled. It seemed that she could live to the end of her life, as the old friend said.
Everyone was grateful for the beauty of life, without getting back to their senses. Only one person stared blankly at the pet.i.te figure standing on the altar. He touched his back and found nothing, with a puzzled look.
What happened… to this world?
