The battle continues, the fighting continues!
Boom boom boom!
Throughout the continuous fierce battle, Lu Xuanji’s body was covered with wounds, blood scattered.
The Nascent Soul narrowly avoided the assassination of the Golden Sun Sword.
Then, various secret techniques, killing moves, divine techniques, and so on were displayed in succession, but to no avail.
The injuries were increasing, at most ten more moves and he’d be killed.
Jin Xi was also covered in wounds, her aura waning, on the verge of collapse.
"Go!"
At this mont, Lu Xuanji activated a secret technique, pulling Jin Xi along with him.
The next mont, both of them disappeared, entering the Grotto World Pearl.
Bang!
At this mont, the Grotto World Pearl appeared in the void.
...
Thud!
At this mont, Lu Xuanji fell into the Grotto World Pearl, his whole body like a tattered sack. Covered in blood, his injuries were severe, almost to the point of death.
As for Jin Xi, her state wasn’t good either, magical power corroding her body, her injuries extrely severe.
Lu Xuanji took a Heaven nding Pill, operated his cultivation technique to recover from his injuries; passing another elixir, Jin Xi also took one.
About a mont later, their injuries recovered a bit.
Standing up, Lu Xuanji’s condition was much better now, but to fully heal, at least twenty years of recuperation was needed.
Jin Xi also stood up, activated magic to wash off the dust and dirt from her body, once again appearing in snow-white clothes, like a fairy.
Yet, during the battle, she had also injured her primordial qi and needed a long ti to fully recover.
Boom boom boom!
At this mont, magic struck outside, causing the Grotto World Pearl to tremble violently.
The Grotto World Pearl was a Seventh-Grade Spiritual Treasure, its grade quite high, and for a mont, the enemy couldn’t break in.
However, if much ti passed, it might not hold up.
Lu Xuanji asked, "Xi’Er, how are you?"
"Severely injured, I can no longer fight!" Jin Xi said, "We can only rely on Qing Lian for rescue! As long as she acts, we can escape danger."
"If Qing Lian were coming, she would have arrived by now. Her absence suggests she was intercepted halfway!"
Lu Xuanji spoke, his tone calm.
"To kill us, the Black Tortoise Demon Venerable confused the celestial secret. Other Divinity Transformations also acted to restrain or intercept human Divinity Transformations. The demon race went to great lengths, deploying many strongn, and even if we fall now, it can be considered dying for a cause!"
Thinking about the trap set to hunt the two of them.
Lu Xuanji didn’t know whether to be pleased or to weep.
"The Chu Country and the Hundred Thousand Mountains are at war, the human and demon races are at war, those Divinity Transformation Seeds will beco the main targets, and we just happen to be among them." Jin Xi said, "Moreover, from start to finish, the demon race adhered to the rules, not bullying the weak with the strong. Only juniors are acting!"
...
Boom boom boom!
At this mont, the void rumbled as the Third Elder activated magic to attack.
Magic continually erupted, booming forth.
Waves of destruction ca one after another.
But the Grotto World Pearl remained sturdy, seemingly unscathed.
"Interesting, at least it’s a Sixth-Grade Spiritual Treasure. But if you think you can rely on a turtle shell to stay safe and sound, you’re dreaming!" The Third Elder sneered, "Watch as I break the treasure and kill you."
The Third Elder laughed angrily, taking out a jar.
Opening the jar, it contained a green liquid, extrely heavy, like rcury.
In the liquid, Nine Nether Qi swirled around, extrely cold.
Upon opening the lid, endless cold qi swept in as if to transform into an icy world.
The Nine Nether Divine Water, a suprely yin and cold substance, could erase so spiritual imprints on magical treasures.
Opening the jar, pouring the Nine Nether Divine Water over the Grotto World Pearl, it emitted a hissing sound, yet remained smooth and bright, resisting the erosion of the Nine Nether Divine Water.
But the spiritual imprint on the Grotto World Pearl began to be gradually erased,
...
Ah!
Within the Grotto World Pearl, Lu Xuanji let out a miserable cry.
His head ached, as if struck by a hamr.
His body trembled slightly, as if enduring the baptism of extre cold in the dead of winter.
Feeling the outside changes, Lu Xuanji’s face grew increasingly somber, saying, "Xi’Er, things aren’t looking good. That Third Elder of the Golden Crow Race found a way to break through, using the Nine Nether Divine Water to start eroding the Grotto World Pearl. The Grotto World Pearl can withstand the erosion."
"But my spiritual imprint can’t resist the erosion of the Nine Nether Divine Water and is beginning to be erased. In at most the ti it takes for a cup of tea, my spiritual imprint will be completely erased. By then, they can break the Grotto World Pearl and enter here. We’ve fallen into a desperate situation."
"Xi’Er, when we reach the mont of crisis, I’ll use a secret technique, choosing self-detonation to buy you a chance of survival."
With the situation as it was, Lu Xuanji began to make the worst plan.
Jin Xi said, "Husband, does it really have to be this way?"
"The situation is this far gone; no matter how I calculate the future, every chance has dissipated!" Lu Xuanji said, "At a critical mont, seeking self-detonation is the final thod."
"Husband, don’t do this, if we must die, let’s die together!"
Jin Xi said.
"Don’t be stubborn!" Lu Xuanji said, "Outside, an array seals the void, cutting off our escape route. When I self-detonate, the outside imprisonnt array will show a flaw. Then, you can activate a law to escape and save your life."
"Being able to save even one is sothing, don’t act on impulse!"
Jin Xi said, "Husband, let self-detonate! I’ll self-detonate to give you a chance of survival!"
"Your Nascent Soul is too weak, the power of its self-detonation is limited, it can’t shake the imprisonnt array!" Lu Xuanji chuckled, "But I’m different, having entered the Golden Core Twelfth Transformation, gathered my Nascent Soul, which is exceptionally strong. If I self-detonate, the explosion’s power will be maximum!"
Jin Xi wanted to say sothing but remained silent.
At this point, they were in dire straits.
Only risking it could offer a glimr of hope.
Even then, there was fear that there might be no chance to even risk it.
Lu Xuanji said, "Wait for !"
With that, his cultivation technique began operating, the Immortal Qi in his Nascent Soul starting to reverse and brew.
Gradually, making preparations for the final self-detonation.
Self-detonation also required controlling the tempo, needing ti to brew.
If the rhythm was not managed well, it might end up blowing oneself up.
Bzz bzz bzz!
Ti slowly passed, Lu Xuanji’s aura surged, gradually reaching the critical mont, requiring only a thought, and the Nascent Soul would fly out to blow up the enemy.
Reflecting on his life, there were regrets and joys.
Life’s myriad forms, all past events undulating.
Though all these were to be fixed at this mont.
Life was so fragile, even a peerless genius could fall into the hands of an insignificant person.
