Chapter 122 Golden Lotuses Growing in the Sea of Bitterness

The bright moon hung high above the gleaming blue-green sea. The moon revolved gently, and moonlight spilled down towards Yan Ruyu.

“AHH!” Many of the demon race’s cultivators screamed around her as they were crushed. Just the light overflowing from it was not something they could bear.

Bright Moon Rising Over the Sea was incredibly rare, and even powerful spiritual treasures were completely unable to block it. No one was able to put up a fight against it. One member after another of the demon race fell, none of them were able to survive under the moonlight.

Yan Ruyu was at the front facing it, enshrouded by the brightest moonlight, so she was naturally receiving the greatest attack. The pure white moonlight had completely enveloped her.

Yan Ruyu floated up like an immortal. Behind her appeared a Variation. The sky and sea behind her became the same color, a sapphire blue. The sea was completely calm. Golden lotus after lotus was born within the sea, their leaves speckled with dew, full of vitality and dazzling light.

A gentle breeze blew by and the sea rippled. Golden lotuses blossomed one after another, a dense vitality causing people to feel as if they had arrived to the beginning of the world when heaven and earth were split. The aura of primal chaos unexpectedly appeared.

The surrounding experts of the Ji Family had yet to recover their shock before they were turned into the most basic Spiritual Qi by the thriving vitality, dying without even knowing.

Sky and sea turning the same color, s.h.i.+ning golden lotuses, just like when heaven and earth were split apart, they turned formless.

The clear light spilled from the silver moon was all received by the golden lotuses. Sonorous rumbling came when they met, and thousands of multicolored rays shot out. Yan Ruyu appeared just like the Jade Lake Fairy. 

Golden Lotuses Growing in the Sea of Bitterness was a Variation on the same level as Bright Moon Rising Over the Sea. They were both Wheel and Sea Variations that supreme elites in ancient times had cultivated, but were now extremely rare in the current world.

Ji Haoyue’s expression changed and he quickly stepped across the s.p.a.ce. His movements were extremely graceful and elegant. The bright moon descended, crus.h.i.+ng down on Yan Ruyu.

Just the spilling light from the bright moon was able to annihilate the demon race’s experts, so it was imaginable just how terrifying the power was now that the entire moon was falling.

Yan Ruyu was covered by a faint veil of light. The golden lotuses behind her swayed gently, full of vitality. These exotic flowers blossomed facing the wind, releasing a refres.h.i.+ng fragrance. Golden lotus petals soared, flas.h.i.+ng with bright light, completely drowning the bright moon.

Both of them appeared like exiled immortals of the heavens. Their sleeves fluttering, spiritual and graceful, instead of explosiveness, the moment they met it became poetic and picturesque. 

But the people outside the battle did not feel this. They were all quickly fleeing. Even if the decisive battle appeared tranquil, their surroundings had already blown into berserk battles.

The hazy moonlight and golden lights of the lotuses surged back and forth. Nothing was able to block them, and many people didn’t even have time to scream before they were annihilated, no trace of them left behind.

This was an extremely frightful contest!

The might from these Wheel and Sea Variations was not something these cultivators could affect.

Ji Haoyue’s eyes flickered with light, seeming to possess a devilish nature. The blue-green sea behind him overflowed. He began to reveal his true power. The bright moon started to revolve, and an even more terrifying divine energy condensed.

Yan Ruyu appeared above mortality, her bright jade-like body hidden behind the golden lotuses making her appear even more spiritual. Powerful vitality filled the air as lotus after lotus broke out of the water reaching towards the blue sky.

At this time, between these great mountains, a great sea was surging. The moon fell from the clear sky, the golden lotuses split open the dome of the sky, and a dazzling burst of immortal music rang out.

Everyone was flying away in retreat, and quite a few of the demon clan’s experts finally managed to seize this opportunity to leave. A short time later, the bright moon shattered and the golden lotuses withered. The vast sea was devastated, an incomparably frightening scene.

RUMBLE!

No matter how quickly people retreated, they were unable to surpa.s.s these bright light beams. Many people were pierced through by the blazing lights, only to forever fall here. Blood filled the sky and corpses fell one after another.

When the dust settled, a corner of Ji Haoyue’s purple clothes had been torn while a strand of Yan Ruyu’s black hair fell. Both parties opposed each other directly.

“Your Majesty, quickly leave! You don’t need to fight for time for us!” three old women anxiously called out from the distance. Taking out their own spiritual treasures, they blocked Yan Ruyu’s advance, wanting to let her leave.

Five seniors from the Ji Family took out their own weapons to help support Ji Haoyue. Their family’s divine body had to be protected like a rare gem, and could not be lost. 

“You guys run!” Yan Ruyu shouted, causing the three women to take back their spiritual treasures and run.

The Ancient Mirror above Ji Haoyue’s head floated and circulated with rays of primal chaos. Lightly trembling, despite the huge distance between them, it completely obliterated those three experts of the demon race. The three of them were completely broken by the primal chaos, turning into a b.l.o.o.d.y mist.

The Ancient Mirror’s strength overflowed the heavens!

Yan Ruyu was too late to prevent it. Her jade-like body emitted divine light everywhere. A bright light appeared in her hand, appearing like a gaudy rainbow that was too piercing for others to see it clearly. Bright rays attacked forward.

Although the experts of the Ji Family were enveloped by the primal chaos from the Ancient Mirror, they were unable to escape. They were all pierced through and died.

The three supreme seniors of the Ji Family in the distance all had white beards and hair. They possessed a deep immortal air as they quietly stood in the sky. One of them said, “The Demon Emperor’s sacred weapon truly deserves its reputation.”

The Ji Family had inheritances from extremely ancient times. The Ancient Mirror was completely enigmatic. It was the weapon of the first generation family head, something from before the Ancient Desolation. It possessed unfathomable power.

As for the sacred weapon in Yan Ruyu’s hand, its origin was equally deep. The fearful might of the weapon of the demon race’s Great Emperor did not need to be doubted.

In the entire vast lands of the Eastern Wastelands, other than treasures like the Desolate PaG.o.da that came into existence with the very world, the Ancient Mirror and the Demon Emperor’s sacred weapon were definitely peak sacred objects.

At the beginning the two of them hadn’t dared to rush into using their ancient weapons. Both of them were rather afraid that if the two sacred weapons were to collide, the consequences might be too unimaginable.

The Ancient Mirror appeared incomparably simple and old. Unfathomable lines were carved around it, giving people a natural feeling of the Dao and Truth. The primal chaos that floated out from it caused people to shake in fear.

At this moment, the Ancient Mirror and Ji Haoyue’s bright moon slowly merged into one. Both of them suspended together above in the air. Gently trembling, the air of the dawn of creation filled the air.

It quickly enlargened, overflowing with an ancient air, majestically suppressing down!

Yan Ruyu appeared like a fairy floating upon the clouds. Her golden lotuses were like heavenly watchtowers that crowded around her, hiding her behind them. Her beautiful hair rose, and her eyes suddenly emitted two blazing rays of divine light. All of the golden lotuses behind her soared high into the sky, merging with the Demon Emperor’s sacred weapon, charging towards the Ancient Mirror.

There were no powerful energy fluctuations when they met. There was no heaven-shaking earth-shattering sound. Everything was completely calm. Specks of primal chaos undulated.

It was as if nothing was happening at all.

A long time pa.s.sed before the two of them repeatedly trembled and retreated. The Ancient Mirror flew back and descended into the sea while the golden lotuses wilted, similarly descending with the Demon Emperor’s sacred weapon into her sea.

Completely silently, the surrounding huge mountains suddenly burst into dust. Like snowflakes melting, they disappeared in the blink of an eye.

This frightening scene shocked everyone. If they had not all retreated to safe zones, they would have all been killed.

Yan Ruyu saw that the stone sarcophagus and Ye Fan had both managed to escape. She wasn’t overly pleased, merely powerlessly sighing. There was no way for her to help others anymore. All she could do was block Ji Haoyue. 

Other than his unfathomable divine body, she was most worried about those three supreme old men in the sky. Those three had been closely guarding Ji Haoyue and observing the battle, giving her a feeling of being powerfully oppressed.

Yan Ruyu looked at the various trapped cultivators of the demon race and her red lips opened slightly, saying, “I’m sorry!”

“Your Majesty, there’s no need for you to risk your life for us. Quickly leave!” the demon race’s experts all shouted loudly to her. Most of them were aggrieved, knowing that it would be difficult for them to escape death today.

At this moment, all them charged and recklessly launched a counterattack in order to break open a b.l.o.o.d.y path for Yan Ruyu.

Yan Ruyu’s gaze swept past every single one of them. She didn’t say anything, turning into a rainbow as she charged towards the horizon, beginning to break out of the enclosure.

However, Ji Haoyue and the three supreme old men had long locked her in. They were like shadows following her, not letting her escape.

“KILL!”

In this b.l.o.o.d.y ma.s.sacre, the members of the demon race unceasingly fell from the sky dead.

Yan Ruyu was as fast as lightning, her rainbow streaking through the sky, but completely unable to break away from Ji Haoyue behind her. As for those three old men, they were tasked with guarding Ji Haoyue and followed closely behind him. Although for the moment they didn’t attack, it was still a great deterrence. 

At this time, Ye Fan was already several hundred kilometers away. He had been protected by several old women and safely charged out of the siege. Bright Moon Rising Over the Sea, Golden Lotuses Growing In The Sea of Bitterness, personally seeing these two appear within the world again with their incomparable might truly amazed him.

Right now, the only thought in his mind was that he had to get stronger and successfully cultivate his Ancient Desolation Sacred Body!

As for the Ancient Mirror and the Demon Emperor’s sacred weapon, they both gave him a large impact. According to what the old women had said, the two of them were only able to display a tenth of those weapons’ might, but their power was already so limitless.

“It really baffles me why your demon race would be guarding a young human. Even while breaking out of the enclosure you didn’t lose him,” a clear and melodious voice rang out. In front of them was a maiden around seventeen years old, bringing a couple seniors to block their path.

This maiden was wearing purple clothes, possessing a kind of indescribably n.o.ble air. But when she smiled, she had a different kind of bearing. Her left cheek had a small dimple that was very charming and moving.

The old women from the demon race all frowned. Ji Haoyue had been wearing purple clothes, and now this maiden also appeared in similar attire. It was easy for them to sense a connection.

She was very pretty with large eyes and long eyelashes. Possessing a kind of spirituality, she seemed very lively and smart.

“Get me that youngster. I want to see what’s so special about him,” she laughed, her small dimple appearing and her eyes turning into crescent moons.
