As the Universe Turns - Chapter 544
Chapter 544 Deliberation
A figure appeared on the cliff in an instant. He was wearing a black robe and a battle robe hat. He hadn’t yet approached, so he couldn’t see his appearance clearly.
“Who are you?”
Yucha Xuanji asked first. Although the aura of the person in front of him was restrained, the more it was, the more inexplicable pressure it gave them. At this moment, the four of them were on guard carefully.
A cold voice came from beneath the battle robes. “The four of you, don’t you remember me?”
Hearing this voice, the four of them were stunned. This voice was indeed somewhat familiar. Suddenly, the four of them trembled at the same time. Yucha Xuanji raised his head and looked at the black-robed man in front of him in disbelief. He muttered, “You … you are …”
Xiao Chen slowly removed his battle robe hat. After seeing his appearance clearly, the four of them felt stifled. It was really that youth from more than ten years ago …
However, now, he could no longer see any of the shadows of the past. There was only the terrifying infinite coldness.
“So it’s Childe Xiao …”
Yucha Xuanji reacted first and smiled brightly. He couldn’t help but recall the scene at the top of Mount Qiong more than ten years ago.
“If Master doesn’t leave, I won’t either! At worst, just die here. If I don’t leave, you guys come!”
The little boy was born stubborn and didn’t even want to die. Such stubbornness made the few devils feel a bit scared.
Especially when the other party’s gaze could still be remembered. At that time, the four of them were all thinking in their hearts that when this kid grew up, he would definitely be their number one enemy. How could they have imagined that such a thing would happen later? However, this kid was not tolerated by the Righteous Dao. To them, it was a good thing.
The current Xiao Chen had some shadows of the past, and he could no longer see any similarities with the past. The chill that was present on his body now was that of the four devils who were killing without blinking an eye. They were all slightly frightened.
“I thought the four of you had already forgotten …”
Xiao Chen’s voice was faint. As he spoke, he slowly walked to Hua Weiyang’s side.
“How could I forget, Ling Yin’s disciple …”
Xie Tianluo’s eyes turned extremely cold. Three hundred years ago, his left arm was cut off by Ling Yin’s sword. He had always engraved this grudge in his heart. Even though Xiao Chen was no longer a disciple of the Xuanqing Sect, he was still a disciple of Ling Yin. When he saw this, hatred naturally surged into his heart.
Suddenly, his figure moved and he rushed towards Xiao Chen. Within a radius of ten zhang, a strong wind instantly blew. However, as the dust rolled, Xiao Chen’s two fingers condensed, and a finger force instantly gathered into a sword qi that pressed against Evil Sky Luo’s throat.
“Don’t mention the word ‘Ling Yin’ in front of me …”
Xiao Chen’s voice was cold and indifferent, while the other three held their breaths. Their speed was so fast that the Heretic Heavenly Luo’s cultivation was already considered high. However, they did not see how Xiao Chen had attacked earlier. If this sword qi was released, it would instantly heavily injure the Heretic Heavenly Luo.
At this moment, a layer of cold sweat congealed on Xie Tianluo’s back. Only at this moment did he truly realize that this person in front of him was no longer the young man who needed Ling Yin’s protection more than ten years ago.
It was only a short ten years ago, but why was his cultivation so terrifying? Could it be that, as the rumors had it, one of the scrolls in the Heavenly Book was really on him?
At this moment, the four of them began to ponder carefully. If their cultivation had increased so much in just over ten years, what else could they have besides the Heavenly Heart Ancestor’s Heavenly Books?
Xiao Chen’s eyes were cold. He flicked his sleeve and removed his finger force. Only then did the atmosphere ease. Freedom Monarch looked at Hua Weiyang and smiled. “Just now, Palace Master Wei Yang said that there was a way to break the barrier in the depths of the forest. May I know what kind of method it is?”
Hua Weiyang smiled and said, “Of course there is. Follow me.” With that, he lightly tapped his feet and flew across the cliff.
Half an hour later, the group arrived in front of the miasma she and Xiao Chen had passed through that night. Freedom Monarch frowned and said, “Palace Master Wei Yang is saying that the miasma here is just a mask created by Tai Shi Dao Sect. The real barrier in the depths of the forest is still inside …”
“That’s right, that’s exactly the case.” Hua Weiyang smiled faintly.
“Humph!”
Xie Tianluo coldly snorted and coldly looked into the depths of the mist. “This Tai Shi Dao Sect really doesn’t put people in his eyes. He really thinks of himself as the owner of this place …” he said coldly.
Yu Qixuanji frowned slightly. After pondering for a moment, she looked at Hua Weiyang and said, “I wonder if Palace Master Lianhua has any way to break through this layer of mist and poison miasma.”
Hua Weiyang said, “The poison miasma inside is very powerful, “There are still many restrictions. If you don’t pay attention, you will end up with both your body and spirit destroyed. However, these poisonous miasma and restrictions are all supported by formations. There are some formations outside and some inside. We just need to find these formations and destroy them with sufficient profound strength. The mist miasma here will naturally dissipate …”
“I see …”
Freedom Lord focused his attention and slowly said, “The formations outside are not used by Tai Shi Dao Sect to break through the barrier, but to support this mist and poison miasma, and the restrictions inside …”
Hua Weiyang nodded, “Exactly.”
“Then Lord Lianhua Palace, what are your plans?” At this moment, Childe walked over and asked her.
“It’s very simple. I already know where some of the formations are. At that time, I only need four of you to work with me to destroy those formations.”
Hua Weiyang said slowly. The four of them pondered for a while before Yucha Xuanji said, “Lord Lianhua Palace, this method is indeed feasible. In the next three days, the four of us will go back and prepare some for each other. I’ll see you at Gui Xiaoya in three days. How about it?”
Xie Tianluo snorted coldly, “I naturally have to go back and prepare well.”
Clearly, the four of them had their own thoughts and were determined to obtain the secret treasures in the depths of the hundred thousand dense forests. It was only because they now had the Great Origin Dao Sect as their common enemy that they were able to stand together temporarily. Once they entered the depths of the dense forest, there would probably be endless battles …
At this moment, Xiao Chen seemed to have seen the scene of blood flowing into a river in the depths of the forest half a month later …
After the four of them left, Xiao Chen and Hua Weiyang exchanged glances. They understood each other’s intentions and left this place immediately.
Three days later, in the evening, in a certain cave, four old men were sitting. They were meditating with their eyes closed. They were from the Supreme Origin Dao Sect. At this moment, two disciples suddenly rushed in from outside.
Looking at the panicked expressions of the two disciples, the green-clothed old man said, “What’s the matter?”
“Back … back to Master.”
The faces of the two disciples turned a little pale. The disciple on the left said, “I just found that those Demon Sect disciples had gathered a lot of people outside. I’m worried that they’ve discovered something. I’m afraid they’re going to attack the formation tonight …”
“Mm …”
The green-clothed old man slowly opened his eyes and muttered to himself, “There are still seven days left before the spirit formation can be broken. Unfortunately, what should come is still coming. Sigh …”
After a sigh, his gaze gradually became fierce. He waved his hand and a talisman flew towards the two disciples, “Take this talisman and invite Mr. Ghost Mist over.”
