Chapter 1427: Life Cage
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After the extrely cruel fight, when Ye Xiao was back to the base, he was a bit lost.
He was thinking about the people in black clothes and the secret organization behind them.
He thought about Wu Huitian who was dead, Yun Xiran who ran away. They reminded him of an old friend.
Yue Changtian!
The pri masters of the Saint Sunlight Sect and the Saint Starlight Sect, what about Yue Changtian?
Ye Xiao thought about the pri master of the Cold Moon Palace, who was always solemn yet generous and was now missing.
[How is he now?]
Thinking about that, he suddenly made a long sigh.
Late at night.
The stars blinked in the sky.
It was the mont before dawn, the darkest mont of the world in a day.
Suddenly, a world-cracking sound rang up.
Sowhere around the union of justice, a mountain suddenly collapsed. Dust filled the sky, and one could barely see his own hands in the dusty air.
Ye Xiao and the others were shocked, and they all went out.
They were in the darkness, and all they could hear was the sound of the cracking rocks.
Ye Xiao frowned.
[It must be people from the secret organization... But... Why would they break down a mountain before they ca over? If they do this quietly and sneakily, we would lose many lives.]
[Breaking down a mountain like this is completely pointless. It would only give us ti to prepare for the fight.]
[How co?]
[Covering our sights? Trying to frighten us? Nonsense! It was superfluous. I don’t think their leader could be this stupid!]
Ye Xiao frowned, watching the rising smoke in the sky. He couldn’t understand what exactly was happening.
In the dark, sobody was shouting in a hoarse voice. “Ye Xiao! Co fight ! I dare you!”
Suddenly, a sword light blinked in the dark. A man in black clothes with a mask on flew up to the sky as if he and his sword were one. The black clothes were exactly the sa as those people from the vile organization earlier. However, nobody felt the sa horror earlier. Instead, they had the feeling of sobody willing to sacrifice with honor.
However, they denied the feeling imdiately. Those were demonic creatures from the vile organization. How could they be honorable? It must be a delusion!
Li Wuliang’s thick and deep voice sounded. “I, Li Wuliang, am enough to defeat you! There is no need to let Ye Xiao go for this easy fight!”
He was dragging a huge saber, striding out with his eyes like electricity. He was ready to jump over to the sky and fight the man in black clothes.
Ye Xiao’s eyes blinked and he said, “Let
do it!”
Then he moved, beca a moving stream of light rushing up to the sky.
The man in black clothes laughed and said, “You are indeed the Xiao Monarch I know! Follow !”
Before he finished talking, he already took a move, turned around, and left fast toward the south. Ye Xiao didn’t hesitate, just followed up imdiately. One shadow in black and the other in white disappeared in a blink. One was leading while the other followed.
Xuan Bing and the others didn’t feel right about it, so they all hurriedly rushed over to chase them.
At the mont, the mountain didn’t stop shaking yet, as if it was a sign of a coming disaster...
Lei Dadi’s long white beards flew in the blowing air. He kept looking into the sky where the man in black clothes had been standing. His sight was lost in thoughts.
Yun Piaoliu quietly ca over to him, talking to him in mind connection. “How is it? Is that him?”
“It probably... is!” Lei Dadi’s voice was a bit hoarse and powerless.
The three old n just stood there silently like three pieces of woodcarving works.
After a while, the three of them turned around and left the battle for their camp. They looked so old all of a sudden, with their silver hairs.
“Ye Xiao has gone for it. Just let him deal with it. I don’t think there will be any problems. He always does things right.”
“That’s true.”
“They... They apparently don’t want us to know. We will just play dumb then.”
“Ah.”
“What happens afterward is unpredictable. Let’s just wait for Ye Xiao. It is pointless to be frightened now. We can only face the truth!”
“That’s the only thing we can do.”
The three of them talked in their mind connection, but even though they were talking secretly, they didn’t ntion the na, because they couldn’t endure saying it out.
Ye Xiao moved like the wind, chasing after the black shadow in front of him like a white shooting star. In fact, he intentionally kept a certain distance to the man.
He didn’t operate his ultimate moving technique, didn’t try to get closer, because his heart was also disturbed.
Two shadows moved out a far distance within a short ti, like a shooting star chasing after the moon.
Ye Xiao noticed that there were two groups of people in black clothes secretly following them on both sides.
They were like two giant wings.
They were silent but moved in order.
If these people were arranged to kill Ye Xiao, as they worked together like that, they could kill anybody in the world, including Ye Xiao. Ye Xiao could never be able to fight his way out alone with a sword!
However, he didn’t care. He wasn’t worried, because those people didn’t have any murderous intent.
There was no murderous intent, but they were powerful. However, no matter how horribly powerful they were, there was no need to be afraid of them!
Ye Xiao kept following silently.
After getting over another mountain, there was a sharp cliff ahead of them.
The shadow in front suddenly fell down the cliff, and Ye Xiao followed down without hesitation.
The other twelve n in black clothes all jumped down the cliff on two sides without hesitation as well. As they jumped off the cliff, sothing colorful rose up and covered the cliff.
Xuan Bing and the others arrived almost right after they jumped, yet when they went down on the mountain, they were surprised that the colorful thing that covered the cliff had beco an extrely powerful energy shield. Even Xuan Bing couldn’t break through the energy shield!
“Life Cage!”
Xuan Bing was the most knowledgeable person among all. As she checked on the energy shield, she couldn’t help exclaiming out two words.
Jun Yinglian and the others were all shocked, and they looked at each other.
Life Cage was easy to understand. It was a technique which allowed a cultivator to consu his own life energy to build a cage-like shield to protect a certain area.
However, to built a cage like this, it took at least nine top-level Dao Origin Stage cultivators’ lives!
Once the life cage was built, within half a year, even god couldn’t get through the shield!
Nine top-level Dao Origin Stage cultivators’ life energy together was as powerful as the energy of the power of the ultimate greatness!
No man was powerful enough to break it!
Life Cage had such a cruel and strict requirent that it only appeared in so historical stories. Nobody had ever seen it, not to ntion tried to build it.
After all, it took all the life energy of nine top-level Dao Origin Stage cultivators just to build an energy shield which only protected a certain area for a while...
It was cruel, and it cost too much. It was not a good deal no matter at what point.
No sects in the world would use such a thod to protect or block a certain area.
Wasn’t it a better solution to send nine living top-level Dao Origin Stage cultivators to protect the area than sacrificing them? Besides, as long as they were alive, they could protect the area as long as they could. The Life Cage only lasted for a short period of ti after all!
Those cultivators didn’t seem to be fools, then why would they use such an unwise thod?
No matter what, at this mont, in that place, the Life Cage was built.
It was shown right before everybody’s eyes!
People built the Life Cage only to protect the aningless cliff, which the n in black clothes and Ye Xiao jumped off!
Why?
“Why is Xiao Xiao so reckless this ti?” Jun Yinglian was worried and angry at the sa ti. She said, “He didn’t even pay attention to the surroundings, just jumped down without hesitation. That was stupid!”
Xuan Bing’s eyes looked deep and heavy. She said, “Do not panic... As it is recorded in history, the Life Cage can’t be broken by human power. However, it is a technique to go against people outside the cage, which ant it didn’t bring any impact on people inside it. Xiao Xiao has fallen in, but if he wants to co out, the cage can’t stop him...
“This cage is here to stop us. They don’t want us to follow them anymore.
“However... Who are these n in black clothes?”
Her eyes looked profound and full of thoughts.
Apparently, she was wondering why Ye Xiao would jump off the cliff without hesitation before giving it a second thought. There must be sothing special about this weird situation... Suddenly, she was shaken up. It seed she thought of sothing, but she decided to keep her mouth shut. Soon, her face beca calm and peaceful.
In her eyes, there was respect.
...
Ye Xiao moved right straight down to the bottom of the cliff like a shooting light, and then quietly landed on the floor. When he just stood on the floor, he clearly felt so special energy abruptly rising up.
It was so kind of life energy that contained sincerity.
It seed several superior cultivators had just given up their own lives in this place, at this very mont!
They sacrificed themselves in the most extre way, just for one simple goal.
That was the power of selflessness!
Ye Xiao was shocked. As he looked up, he saw twelve streams of colorful energy up over his head, covering the cliff.
The next mont, twelve n quietly landed on the floor, like twelve falling leaves hiding in different places.
As they finally hid away, their life energies were all gone.
In fact, when they landed on the floor, they already lost their lives.
They beca sothing like the withered leaves.
They beca one with the world; they breathed with the world. However, there were no signs of them in the world anymore!
“Life Cage!”
Ye Xiao couldn’t help exclaiming.
Xiao Monarch, as an experienced cultivator in the martial world, surely knew about the story. It was a myth, which was very unlikely going to happen in reality!
At that mont, Ye Xiao’s heart was filled with resentnt!
He had no idea how the myth ca true, but he knew why it would do. The appearance of it explained many things!
“That’s right. It is Life Cage!” The man in black clothes, whom Ye Xiao was chasing, stood out with his eyes full of strange feelings. As he looked at the rising colorfulness in the sky, he made a long sigh.
The sigh expressed too much of his complicated emotion. It sounded like all the emotions and feelings in his whole life got vented out in that long sigh.
“Why?” Ye Xiao turned around staring at the mysterious man in black clothes with a mask
The man in black clothes quietly stood there, but he didn’t answer Ye Xiao imdiately.
“Why do you take such an extre move? As long as we destroy the organization, you can all co back one day!” Ye Xiao asked loudly, and he seed to be emotional. “As long as we kill the biggest demon, all the restraint will be gone. Why do you have to take the most extre and cruel move now?”
The man in black clothes blandly said, “You are right. Everything can start over again. However, not us, we can’t.”
“Even after the demon dies, our dignity, our sect’s honor, our ten thousand years old heritage, will be all gone.” The man in black clothes blandly said, “As long as we are still alive, the disgrace remains!
“We should stay alive if there are still missions to complete, even if we have to bear the sha. However, after today, we are no longer needed in this world. We have no reason to live with sha anymore! The sect has raised us up, and we have fought for the sect for our lives. We won’t allow disgrace!
“As long as we die, what we have experienced, what we have suffered, will all be gone in the world.
“That is the only thing we can do for our sect.”
The man in black clothes sounded pretty sad when he spoke. What he said, he said it in a flat tone as if it had nothing to do with him. “If not now, when the two sides start the real war, we won’t even be able to betray the demon. If he cos, we will lose our minds, and will totally beco tools for killing. We won’t be able to hide our identities when that day cos.
“That will be a great disgrace to the sect! Instead of bringing disgrace to the sect, we would rather sacrifice ourselves to destroy all that related to the shaful truth.
“There is another reason why we would choose this extre thod. We want to create an absolute safe atmosphere for you and
to have this conversation, in which I would speak all the words I have to say before I die.
“We can at least do sothing for you, who have been planning on killing the demons. Besides, to die like this, our souls won’t beco nutrition to the demons.”
“We will die for justice!”
Ye Xiao was shocked. He emotionally exclaid and said, “Pri Master Yue!”
Before he talked, the man in black clothes shook and then hurriedly interrupted. “No, I am not the man you think! You are mistaking
for sobody else. I am just a pathetic man who still has a bit of conscience. Ye Chongxiao, please rember my words!”
