Chapter 1036: Blood Phoenix Shrilling In Peach Mountain (III)
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
In the fight tonight, Ye Hongyu chose to attack Zhao Nanhai first, the Hierarch right after, and then imdiately the middle-aged priest. Even for her it was an arrogant choice because the three figures were so powerful that she could not possibly defeat any of them. Her arrogance seed ridiculous or even desperate.
But being who she was, how could Ye Hongyu do sothing ridiculous? Nor did she ever know what desperation was. Then why did she choose to carry out a series of attacks?
Actually, she never changed her goal ever since the beginning! She was not planning to escape, or did she try to leave the Divine Hall of Judgnt. Instead of running away, she simply wanted to trap the middle-aged priest!
She wanted to trade the life of the middle-aged priest with another person’s life! It was undoubtedly arrogant or even suicidal. Yet she did so no matter what. She had to save that person’s life regardless of her own!
Furthermore, she had the Confinent.
As for the fight tonight, she had no support from Heaven since Haotian had already abandoned her. Nor did she had enough support from the human world as the Abbey Dean had dumped her. However, she had geographical advantages.
It was the place they were in. She was standing on the smooth marble floor. She was right inside the Divine Hall of Judgent. And she was the judgent. Tonight she would turn this chilling Divine Hall into a Confinent. The Confinent was no longer the rely most powerful Taoist skill of the Divine Hall of Judgnt. It would beco a real cage.
The forr Great Divine Priest used to confine the forr Great Divine Priest of Light for over a decade with his wooden cage. Tonight, she would trap the middle-aged priest in her cage and defeat him.
The middle-aged priest seed imposing. He applied the Natural Stream Magical Finger like throwing a clay ox into the sea. Upon clenching his fingers and swaying his sleeves, he made a strike of purest and most authentic Taoist Xuan Practice onto the screen of light.
The screen of light was ford from the ground and stained with blood. It was the Confinent.
His sleeves pounded like humrs through the air and thundered in the Divine Hall of Judgnt. However he was not able to shake the screen of light.
The middle-aged priest seed even more solemn upon seeing this. Zhao Nanhai and the Hierarch beca extrely pale and ca imdiately toward him.
They finally realized Ye Hongyu’s plan, but would never let her fulfill it. They had to break the Confinent before it was finished. Otherwise if she could successfully cage the middle-aged priest and she might even be able to change the result of the fight tonight.
Xiong Chumo’s chest sank deeply while thunders were ford. The pounding power coming from Heaven fell on him and bounced onto the Confinent in a bang.
Zhao Nanhai followed him closely and pushed his palms forward gently while spurting blazing Haotian’s Divine Fla. He was about to lt the Confinent with the fla.
The middle-aged priest would definitely not sit on his doom inside the Confinent. He took a solemn look at the dark sky and withdrew the Natural Stream Magical Finger. His fingers trembled like butterflies flapping their wings, and created various shapes of energy by his side.
Three bouts of unimaginably powerful energy appeared in three different shapes and fell onto Ye Hongyu’s body almost at the sa ti as they fell onto the Confinent.
Massive light poured into the Divine Hall of Judgnt and lightened up every corner and every detail of the Confinent, as if countless suns had appeared in the dark hall.
Extre brightness would turn into darkness and blind everyone. Ye Hongyu stood in the center of the brightness and could no longer see anything. Neither did the other three. They could only use their other senses.
More gashes were made on Ye Hongyu’s naked body, and more blood gushed out. But she was still emotionless. She stared calmly at the middle-aged priest in the Confinent even if she could not see him.
Her blood dripped onto the floor and flowed along the cracks. It awoke the hidden soul of the Divine Hall of Judgnt. Instead of being weakened by the attacks, the Confinent beca more solid than ever.
A thundering exclaim was heard all of a sudden from deep inside the extre brightness. The Confinent was finished. She finally turned the Divine Hall of Judgnt into the Confinent, caged her biggest enemy and defended herself. Or perhaps she had also trapped herself in the Confinent, as she wished.
At that mont the middle-aged priest withdrew the butterfly practice and raised his head gradually. The brightness faded while he looked toward the blood-covered Ye Hongyu. And blood was shed from his eyes instead of tears.
Within a few seconds he was already seriously wounded by the Confinent. But he was still calm. So was Ye Hongyu.
She was half naked. And her charming curves were completely exposed in the dark sky, to the moon and stars as well as everyone in the divine hall. But she was not bothered at all.
She let go of the sword. So far, she had made two strikes but failed to hurt Xiong Chumo and the middle-aged priest. So she no longer needed the sword now.
Xiong Chumo and Zhao Nanhai had to give up. Because once the Confinent was finished, she could simply kill the middle-aged priest with a flash of psyche.
The middle-aged priest stared at Ye Hongyu through the chilling light screen for a long while. He felt complicated with admiration, solemness and even sympathy.
“It’s aningless,” he said.
Ye Hongyu said, “Xiong Chumo and Zhao Nanhai are nothing but jackals. It is of course aningless to take their lives. But as for you, my Uncle, it’s different. The Abbey Dean would need you alive.”
The middle-aged priest looked at her sympathetically and said, “Even so, it was too late. Long Qing should have carried out the sentence in Song by now. Even if the Abbey Dean would be so kind to spare my life, it is aningless now.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Hongyu was silenced.
“Furthermore, you cannot cage .” The middle-aged priest reached for sothing beneath his clothes and sighed. “That’s why it’s aningless.”
Ye Hongyu stared at his hand and frowned, “You can’t break the Confinent.”
“When Wei Guangming escaped from Peach Mountain he said, ‘Bright as I am, how could the Confinent keep trapped?’ I am not more powerful than the forr Great Diving Pries of Light. And your Confinent is definitely more powerful than the previous one. But you still cannot trap .”
When he took his hand out he was holding a to.
No one knew what the to was made from. But it was not crushed during the horrifying fight previously. It was hard to tell whether it was new or old. But there was sothing mysterious and divine about it.
The middle-aged priest looked at the to in his hand and seed hesitant and sorry.
Ye Hongyu vaguely realized what that to was and turned pale.
“I will eventually be freed if I stay in a Confinent long enough,” the middle-aged priest finally made up his mind and chanted. Together with the chanting he opened the first page of the to. The mont the to was opened, the page was burnt into ashes.
A pounding power spurted from the burnt page like Tianqi and bombed onto the Confinent. But it was even more powerful than Tianqi!
Upon a bang the Confinent started shaking.
Seeing this and sensing the mythical power of the to Ye Hongyu realized that she was right. She got stern and said, “How dare you to use the Arcane To as a weapon?!”
She was right. The to that middle-aged priest was holding was an Arcane To.
It was the Arcane To of the Fall!
A single page fall could shake the entire world not to ntion the Confinent!
Ye Hongyu reached out her arms and swayed her Gown of Judgnt. Her pouring black hair also swung. She was trying to fight against the Arcane To with the Confinent!
The middle-aged priest was also extrely solemn because he realized that a single page of this Arcane To was not enough to break the Confinent. Therefore he had to continue burning the Arcane To! The Arcane To of the Fall turned into ashes one page after another. Countless and endless ultimate power was released and splashed around the Divine Hall.
The middle-aged priest witnessed the Arcane To of the Fall beco thinner and thinner in his hand and felt extrely painful.
For a disciple of Taoism, who could stay indifferent when ruining an Arcane To?
The war between the Confinent and the Arcane To continued.
The Arcane To of the Fall kept burning one page after another. And the Divine Hall of Judgnt kept shaking. Rubbles kept falling off from the cracking rock walls as if an earthquake was taking place.
In the heat of the horrifying war, with the Hierarch’s Tianqi previously and the earth-shaking confrontation now, people on Peach Mountain were finally awaken.
Thousands of divine priests and deacons stood on the peaks in front of the Divine Halls. They could not help turning pale when seeing the black and chilling Divine Hall started shaking and almost collapsing in the dark night.
People were scared and stunned. They had no idea what they should do.
Upon a rumbling thunder, the southeast corner of the Divine Hall of Judgnt collapsed. Innurable rubbles splashed and countless peach branches were smashed down the valley. Thousands of divine priests and deacons fell on their knees weeping. They did not dare to look above or make any sounds.
Dust pervaded inside the Divine Hall of Judgnt,.
Xiong Chumo stood aside and felt complicated. It was a battle between the Arcane To of the Fall and the Divine Hall of Judgnt. It was also a war between Haotian and Taoism. Even powerful as he was, he could barely participate in a war like this.
It seed a long while but actually was just a blink. Half of the Arcane To of the Fall was burned in the hand of the middle-aged priest. The Confinent was eventually broken. The Divine Hall of Judgnt was about to collapse in no ti.
Ye Hongyu was pushed back to the Seat of Heavenly Black Jade by the power of the Arcane To.
She was pale, but still indifferent.
It beca quiet in the Divine Hall of Judgnt for a long while.
The middle-aged priest, Xiong Chumo or Zhao Nanhai said nothing. They stared at the woman covered by blood standing by the Seat of Heavenly Black Jade, and could not help from showing so awe or even fear.
She almost made it. She was so close.
Facing such a group of powerful enemies, the young Great Divine Priest of Judgnt had almost turned the tide and made the Taoism surrender.
If the middle-aged priest did not have the Arcane To of the Fall, or if he was not executing the Abbey Dean’s order and profaned the Arcane To as a killing weapon, Ye Hongyu might have won.
She failed, indeed failed. But she had forced the most powerful enemies to exhaust themselves and destroyed half of the most valuable Arcane To of Taoism. Therefore she deserved respect and pride.
Unfortunately she did not succeed. Ye Hongyu turned pale. It was not because the severe wound or fear for her destin but because she knew that her failure would lead to Ye Su’s death.
Everything she tried tonight served for the sa purpose: to catch the middle-aged priest and trade his life for Ye Su’s life.
The middle-aged priest said it was aningless. But she had to do so. Because Ye Su, her brother, had been the sole purpose of her life since many years ago.
The middle-aged priest put back the Arcane To of the Fall piously. Then he looked at Ye Hongyu and said sincerely, “You are indeed very charming and powerful.”
Ye Hongyu said emotionlessly, “I know.”
The middle-aged priest stared at her and sensed the stubbornness deep down in her heart. He could almost see the little girl in the abbey who used to be fond of climbing up trees and teasing Chen Pipi. He took pity on her.
“I’m sorry. But you have to die.”
A corner of the Divine Hall of Judgnt collapsed. Ye Hongyu was seriously wounded and had no other choices.
The middle-aged priest, Xiong Chumo and Zhao Nanhai still stood at three different corners and stare at her.
She failed, and was dood because Taoism would not let her survive.
She stood by the Seat of Heavenly Black Jade. There were only cliffs behind her. There might be a route down there, but definitely not a route for survival.
Right then, she laughed all of a sudden. There was fury, unwillingness and even madness in her laughter.
She and her brother Ye Su worked so hard for Taoism throughout the years. But now they were about to be sentenced. She did not want to reconcile and tried her best. But she failed.
Yet would she give up? Never. For soone like her and Ning Que, they might seem to have the most pious belief for Haotian or the Academy. But actually they only believed in themselves. It was sothing that even Haotian or the Headmaster failed to realize.
Her laughter was cold, even freezing. It seed like sharp Taoist swords that had been frozen in the snow covered ocean for tens of thousands of years. And now they were collected and delivered to the Divine Hall of Judgnt, and were swayed through the air.
In the next mont she stopped laughing and declared, “I will survive,”
Xiong Chumo mocked, “Perhaps you could try begging .”
Ye Hongyu spared no attention to him and repeated calmly, “I will survive.”
The middle-aged priest said, “You can’t.”
The Abbey Dean had decided to kill Ye Su and extinct the New Stream. Therefore she had to die tonight. Otherwise, if she were to survive, Xiong Chumo would die and Taoism would be thrown into the fla.
Ye Hongyu said, “I will survive.” She said it calmly. Because she was not begging or pleading, but declaring. She was telling those powerful figures and the Abbey Dean that she wanted to survive therefore she would.
Blood flowed over her naked body, passed her delicate collar-bones, alluring breasts and charming belly, as if it had went through a fulfilling life across her perfect figure.
“I did not leave earlier on because I wanted to fulfill sothing. Now I know I won’t succeed. And Ye Su would probably die. So I will leave. Do you even think you can keep here?” She stared at the middle-aged priest and said indifferently, “The other half of the Arcane To won’t kill .”
The middle-aged priest slightly frowned as he sensed sothing unusual.
Xiong Chumo looked at her and asked, “How could you get out?” He pointed at the cliffs behind him and said mockingly, “Ning Que jumped down, so did Haotian. Perhaps you want to try as well? Do you think you would survive?”
There were the most horrifying arrays among the towering cliffs of Peach Mountain, as well as the unimaginable dangers down in the abyss. Even the forr Wei Guangming did not dare to get out from there.
Ning Que survived because Haotian jumped together with him.
No matter how powerful Ye Hongyu was, she was after all not Haotian.
If she were to jump from here, she would definitely be dood.
It was quiet inside the Divine Hall of Judgnt. lting snow on the terrace reflected the charming moonlight.
Ye Hongyu looked at Xiong Chumo and gave a mocking smile. She turned to the terrace. Along the way, her blood lted with the snow in her footprints. She ca to the terrace, stood there for a while, then made the leap.
