"Wait..."
"Why do I feel like this spawn point is not right..."
After coming out of the Liuli Illusion Realm, Yino’s excitent did not last long.
About half an hour ago, he had already joined hands with Ruoning to defeat Jing Chen, liberated Dia’s soul, and then the two of them naturally held hands and ca to the blank palace for settling the secret realm rewards.
Logically speaking...
After Yino took the artifacts, he should have used the teleportation gate to return to the Liuli Sect’s rear mountain.
However, when Yino opened his eyes to see the world in the white light, he discovered that there was no bamboo forest in front of him, but a high ravine.
Obviously... This was not the position where Yino entered the secret realm.
Moreover... What made Yino feel even stranger was that the air around here was eerily quiet, as if countless pairs of eyes were staring at him unblinkingly in the dark.
"Yino, what is wrong?"
The atmosphere remained frozen for another second.
Behind Yino, a green-robed young woman holding a mirror with faint purple spiritual charm between her brows walked out of the teleportation gate.
And just as the two were curious, an exclamation suddenly ca from outside the pit not far away!
"Watch out!!!"
When Yino reacted, he looked up and happened to et eyes with the golden flash descending from the sky.
This golden arrow was extrely fast. In the millisecond difference, Yino only felt his mind go blank. His already caught-off-guard state left him with no room to react.
"Imperial Art: Liuli Spirit Tower!"
At the critical mont, Ye Chaerin’s figure appeared out of thin air in front of Yino almost instantaneously.
She no longer had any room for elegance. She just roughly blocked Yino behind her, then raised both hands to the sky, channeling her energy to construct a tower reaching to the heavens above, centered on the ravine where the teleportation gate was located.
Hum!
The golden arrow landed on the top of the tower. The terrifying spiritual energy fluctuation even caused the sea level of the entire Liuli Sect’s rear mountain to sink by an inch.
But even so, the spiritual energy tower supported by Ye Chaerin’s hands only cracked open a small gap.
"???"
Yino and Ruoning stood behind Ye Chaerin, completely unaware of what had happened.
After all... This sudden golden arrow from the sky, with his cultivation and perception ability, he could not even find the other party’s killing intent, nor who was shooting arrows trying to kill him.
[Trying to stop a chariot with a mantis’s arms...]
Above the clouds, the voice continued to broadcast down unhurriedly.
After another mont of silence, everyone only heard the taut sound of a bow being drawn.
At the sa ti, that voice from beyond the heavens also coldly laughed again...
[Ye Chaerin, do you think that just because you are in the Liuli Sect, I would not dare to kill you as well?]
Her words fell.
The next second, Yino looked up and actually saw densely packed arrow formations falling from the sky in all directions.
"Damn it..."
"Hold onto tightly!"
Seeing the arrow rain becoming more and more outrageous like a goddess scattering flowers, Ye Chaerin simply gave up defending directly.
She turned around, held Ruoning with her left hand and Yino with her right, directly embracing the two into her arms and flash-stepped out.
Rumble!!!
The golden arrows landed, once again blasting out a series of incredibly neat energy craters.
Iris was a true immortal-level figure who had ascended to the immortal realm.
What was even more terrifying was that she also had the Divine Gate’s Blazing Sun Divine Bow in her hands. The divine artifact’s enhancent could elevate her original Heavy Immortal realm power to the new height of the Spirit Immortal realm.
Ye Chaerin had only just beco a grand elder in recent years.
She was only about a hundred years old, rely at the Great Vehicle stage. How could she be a match for an immortal like Iris?!
If Ye Chaerin had not had a Spirit Immortal realm ancestral artifact, she and Yino and Ruoning would probably have been annihilated into ash by the second arrow just now!
"Qingshuang, Mingyu! Kill them!"
Above the clouds, the white-haired woman saw the other party running far away. She could not help but narrow her golden eyes to aim while coldly ordering.
Her words fell. A man and a woman, two Daoist-robed cultivators beside her, nodded in acknowledgnt, then each summoned an immortal crane and transford into two golden light afterimages flying out.
And just as the white-haired woman was about to release her arrow...
[They are just children. Why use such vicious thods?!]
From the void, another aged voice of admonishnt ca.
Iris knew very well that this was the voice transmission of the Liuli Sect’s ancestor. With her Spirit Immortal realm cultivation personally intervening in mortal affairs, she had indeed violated the tacit understanding and boundaries between the five great immortal sects.
However...
[Liuli Ancestor, Yino has already killed two of our Children of Destiny one after another.]
Iris did not care and still spoke calmly and thodically.
She temporarily put away the divine bow in her hand and turned to look at the ancestral burial ground at the Liuli Sect’s rear mountain...
[Today’s hunt is by the decree of the Divine Gate’s Origin Celestial Venerable... Chen Jianxin’s death had already angered the Heavenly Dao. Now Xumo’s death has also broken the spine of the Liuli Sect’s future pillar. Even your sect’s Celestial Venerable has no complaints. Why should you elders worry?]
Although she was in another sect, Iris’s tone was even more forceful than the several ancestors.
At these words, the several ancestors who had just been sighing with reluctance all fell silent.
That was right...
The Divine Gate was an existence that stood above the five great immortal sects.
It was not an externally open sect, but a neutral sect jointly constructed by the immortals and celestial venerables of the five great immortal sects. Its leadership in the cultivation world was similar to the Immortal Alliance.
The Immortal Alliance was not secretive. It was established by the imperial court, a public organization facing cultivators of all levels throughout the world...
The Divine Gate, however, was hidden from the world, did not accept the court’s intervention and control, but was an immortal sect above immortal sects internally selected and self-governed by the five great immortal sects.
So, Iris daring to co to the Liuli Sect to kill today could not possibly be without the authorization of the Liuli Sect’s behind-the-scenes venerable.
However... Before the true behind-the-scenes venerables, even these ancestors from the previous generation had no say.
The so-called ancestors, although their combat power was extraordinary, were ultimately a group of old bones who were half in the grave and could only rely on slumber to maintain their lives. The future of the sect would ultimately have to be controlled by those newly appointed immortals and celestial masters.
[Now... Xumo is dead. Ruoning is the only remaining future of the Liuli Sect. We hope the Divine Gate will show rcy.]
After a mont of silence, the several ancestors spoke again in deep voices to persuade.
Hearing these words, there was no pity in Iris’s eyes. Although she appeared to silently agree by not speaking, her brows were full of disdain and disgust...
"A Child of Destiny not under our Immortal Dao’s control, what is the point of keeping them?"
She sneered, no longer paying attention to these ancestors, and turned to ride the immortal crane to continue to the battlefield.
...
"Lady Ye, please forgive for the offense!"
In the bamboo forest at the Liuli Sect’s rear mountain, the woman who called herself Qingshuang had determined eyes.
She first made a fist salute in front of her chest, then joined two fingers of her left hand to form a seal. In just an instant, a slender ice frost flying wheel condensed on her right hand.
Following closely, the man nad Mingyu also ford a seal in front of his chest. Behind him, dazzling golden light appeared and transford into six-pointed light wings...
"Please forgive the offense!"
Although the two were immortal attendants, as disciples of the Divine Gate wielding military immortal artifacts, their cultivation was not much inferior to Ye Chaerin.
Ye Chaerin was busy dodging Iris’s golden arrows and had no ti to counterattack the two disciples pursuing from behind.
At the critical mont, Yino thought of sothing, but ti was pressing. He had no ti to explain to Ruoning, so he simply reached into her arms and pulled out that mirror...
"Use this!"
"...?!"
Ye Chaerin glanced over with her peripheral vision. She had no patience at first, but froze the instant she saw the jade mirror.
She swallowed, gave Yino a aningful look, then took the jade mirror and hid it in her sleeve...
"Do you have any more similar artifacts?!"
"Yes... Simple yet powerful artifacts like this, I actually have five more in my pocket."
"Five???!"
