The Heavenly Martial Empress Returns: An OP Xianxia Returnee LitRPG Chapter 212: A New (Temporary) Solution To The Infestation?
-----
Xue Xenxue watched in awe as Rainbow Eyes punched down the Dark Draconified Immortal, the immortal’s entire body exploding into pieces, falling from the skies into the ground once more.
“T-That’s amazing; just how strong are you, boy?” Asked Xue Xenxue in disbelief, readjusting his glasses.
“I don’t know… But pretty strong!” Said Rainbow Eyes. “And- Uh?”
“Oh no!” Xue Xenxue glanced at the scene in disbelief.
The two looked down, realizing a cloud of darkness regenerated the body from its countless pieces, remaking it entirely and reviving the once dead into an even more monstrous being.
“T-This is incredible! Is this what this alien energy can do? This darkness! It can revive the beings it possesses indefinitely?! It’s incredible if that’s the case!” Xue said.
“Indefinitely? That cannot be possible…” Rainbow Eyes said, looking grumpy. “I bet there’s a way to… Huh?”
As he glanced at the Dark Draconified immortal rushing from the ground below, he noticed dozens more of these monsters surrounding them.
“There you are! Shyaaah!”
“Dangerously strong…! Shaah!”
“Eliminate the child! Gyaaah!”
“Destroy the threat! Now!”
They started whispering between one another, their Auras of Darkness growing stronger as they rushed towards Rainbow Eyes at the sa ti.
Their claws, fangs, and tails overflowed with black flas as they attacked using fast and precise movents, fueled by the Ki of their original selves.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
“Ah! Rainbow Eyes!”
Xue panicked as he saw the boy being overwheld; the monsters didn’t seem to pay him any attention, deeming him a non-threat that they didn’t have to waste ti and efforts prioritizing.
“Hmph!”
However, Rainbow Eyes didn’t falter; from his body, a gigantic aura surged, as his entire body was encompassed in silver flas, his clear brown skin was covered in these flas as well, and his long, fiery hair quite literally turned into silver flas too!
FLUOOOSH!
As he transford, a powerful shockwave of silver flas engulfed his foes, burning their bodies and consuming their souls and lives; the darkness encompassing them seeped to fight back quite strongly though, trying to regenerate them or help them move through the endless inferno.
“Maybe if I disintegrate them completely or turn them into ash, they won’t be able to revive!” The boy said.
“{Heavenly Silver Nova Body}: {Astral Flare}!”
FLAAAASH!
The boy shone incredibly brightly, making even the Dark Storm Dragon above the skies squint his eyes lightly; the Apothecary was blinded though.
“Uuaagh! My Eyes!”
As he scread, the Dark Draconified Immortals were instantly burned to ashes, disappearing one after another, as nothing of them was left behind.
“Uooh! These ashes! What are they?!”
Xue, however, recovered instantly as his special regenerative body helped him recover his sight almost a second after. He quickly took a special Immortal Flask, composed of several spiritual materials, and grabbed so of the ash left behind, which he saw had glittering darkness inside.
“Interesting, the darkness remains in the ashes!” He said. “And- Uagh?!”
He suddenly saw the ashes grow tendrils of black flesh and tal, rapidly trying to recover and beco sothing again.
“Is it regenerating from ashes themselves? Is this so kind of Phoenix Species? No wait, this cos from another world entirely…! {Suppression Seal}!” The man roared as the flask suddenly glowed with several Feng Shui “Runes”, suppressing the living being inside and turning it back to ashes, although only as long as the Seal remained active.
“Oh, old man, you can seal them?” Wondered Rainbow Eyes. “I might’ve been rude to you, but I think I might… I might need so of that here.”
Rainbow Eyes watched the remains of his victims quickly combine back together into even more monstrous creatures; the more they revived, the less human they looked.
“Gruooohhh!”
“Gryaaaarrgh!”
“Shaaaahh!”
“You an the Suppression Seal?!” Xue asked. “Yes, I can conjure it more; I’ve got a whole lot of those flasks!”
The Apothecary quickly summoned hundreds of flasks of all shapes and sizes, which floated around his own Immortal Aura. He had almost no raw power, as his Cultivation and even the Dao Path he walked through were completely unconventional to any Cultivator of Murim.
“Woah, you can control those things easily? And they ca from your Aura?!” Rainbow Eyes was surprised, battling dozens of the sa monsters again; he didn’t seem to be struggling yet.
“Heheh! Of course, boy,” nodded Xue Xenxue. “I am not just any Apothecary, Scientist, and Alchemist, but the best of Murim! …I think.”
“Okay then, synchronize to ; I’m going to start roasting them once more!” Rainbow Eyes roared, his muscles bulging even more as his flas gathered into his body.
“RAAAAHHH!”
With a mighty caveman roar, Rainbow Eyes unleashed a storm of silver flas, consuming his surroundings. The monsters were rapidly roasted alive; their hard tal, darkness, or whatever simply couldn’t go against them.
Explosions erupted one after another as the monstrous immortals exploded like balloons, turning into ashes. The flas dissipated, and Xue moved.
“I got them!”
He controlled all the flasks with his Immortal Aura, letting them capture every single grain of ashes he found around, and then he placed powerful Seals on them.
“{Suppression Seal}!”
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
The flasks glowed brightly as the ashes within them and the darkness inside of them were fully suppressed! And so the group of thirteen monsters stopped temporarily.
“It worked!” Rainbow Eyes smiled. “I guess you weren’t as useless as I imagined!”
“Hahah, your praise is overwhelming, young lord,” Xue said while giggling humbly, already bootlicking the kid as much as possible, a survival tactic in Murim that has kept him alive all this ti. “It is rely a small showcase of my abilities and also my gratitude towards you for having saved my life. I know this isn’t the ti, but I’ve been considering joining your mother’s sect; has she been recruiting lately?”
“What? Stop using complicated words…” Rainbow Eyes groaned, scratching his head. “You want to join my mom’s sect? You have to ask her that yourself!”
Despite all, the boy was still quite like a caveman; they were rough and didn’t like talking complicated words if possible. Although he seed more eloquent than Fiery Hair, he wasn’t that different to her.
“B-But aren’t you her son? I-I thought that…!” Xue muttered; he seed afraid of introducing himself to Bing Xue directly.
“Whatever, I’ll try to tell her,” Rainbow Eyes shrugged. “Oh! Mama’s fighting over there! She seems to be helping those losers over there… Auntie Mursha and sis are with them too.”
“Your mother, auntie, and sister?” wondered Xue, glancing towards that direction, realizing it was right where the other Immortals had kicked him out.
Half of them had already turned into infected monsters that were constantly reviving after Fiery Hair roasted them into ashes; the other half was cowering in fear behind Mursha and Fiery Hair, while Kalana was rushing from monster to monster, blowing them up into pieces with her powerful punches. The Primordials that were there had already escaped, without even being grateful for their help.
“Looks like the Primordials that were close by already escaped… or died?” wondered Xue Xenxue. “Whatever the case, please let assist you! My Seal can temporarily seal these monsters; it could give us enough ti until I can find so way to counter or deactivate their Darkness.”
“You can do that, old man?” Rainbow Eyes wondered.
“I don’t know, but I’ve been able to figure out many things through investigating and analyzing many substances and the laws of physics of my world, young lord,” said Xue Xenxue. “I believe anything can be solved as long as you apply science to it!”
“Science…? That’s another buzzword I don’t understand.” Rainbow Eyes looked bored. “Co!”
The boy rushed towards the dangerous area, and Xue Xenxue caught up to him, although he was much slower.
“Geez, why are you so damn slow?!”
His Blazing Aura turned into a giant hand, grabbing Xue Xenxue, who scread, thinking he would get burned alive, only to realize the flas weren’t burning him.
“Huh? They don’t burn?”
“I can choose who they hurt; they’re an extension of my Soul and my Body after all!” Rainbow Eyes said. “Don’t you think it was weird you didn’t get burned when I fought those monsters? Stupid old man...”
“A-Ah, hahaha, of course!” laughed Xue Xenxue, realizing just how ridiculously powerful were Bing Xue’s children. “It seems the young lord is already at… the Primordial Level! How many years did it take you to reach that level?”
“Years? Mom said I was born a Venerable!” Rainbow Eyes giggled cockily, showing his sharp teeth.
“S-Since birth?!” Xue scread. “And Venerable?! I-Impossible! Isn’t that… Ah! But could it be? The laws of this world are simply different, I suppose! How fascinating!”
“Whatever you say! Now co help out! Use your thingies to catch the ashes and seal them, got it?” Rainbow Eyes asked.
“Yes, I’m creating more as we speak!” Xue Xenxue nodded.
Inside of his small Inner Realm, there was a huge Formation he had created using thousands of different types of materials combined together and aligned into a massive Factory-type Formation, which created special Martial Flasks that he used to contain dangerous elents and ingredients.
They were originally made to contain souls inside, but they had continuously evolved to beco even stronger, and now he was improving them to beco better at sealing these Darkness-powered monster remains so they wouldn’t be able to revive so easily.
“Hyahyahyahyaaaah!”
BAAM! BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!
Little Kalana unleashed a barrage of punches infused with her blood red aura, bursting through her foes and blowing giant holes through their bodies, ultimately reducing them to smithereens!
“And now…!”
Her fists blazed with crimson flas made out of her own Blood Fang Aura, her eyes shone bright red for a mont, changing from their rainbow color.
“{Crimson Burst}!”
BOOOMMM!!!
By swinging both of her fists forward with all her power, an explosion of crimson energies engulfed the Dark Draconified Immortals, as their bodies exploded, rapidly disintegrating even more, turning into just ashes, or tiny fragnts.
“Haaah… Haaah… Did that do it?!” She wondered, squinting her eyes.
However, she quickly noticed the Darkness rapidly wrapped around the ashes again, and the bodies began to rapidly regenerate.
“Dammit! Kalana complained. “Stop it already!”
She swung her fists forward, punching the empty air and unleashing massive shockwaves that blew up the regenerating bodies into pieces over and over again.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
As she did that, the Immortals that were being protected by her were shocked by what they were seeing; the little girl was single-handedly stopping those undying monsters with her re punches.
“T-That girl’s… incredible!”
“Despite the weird skin tone, she looks human, no?”
“She’s Bing Xue’s daughter! One of them…”
“So that hair and eyes of hers… weren’t just a coincidence, huh?”
“But didn’t she already have twins? There’s a third?!”
“I’ve heard there’s also a fourth! And they’re all Primordial Level or higher!”
“P-Primordial level or higher at such a young age?”
“Yeah, we never stood a chance…”
“If only those bastard Primordials hadn't run away the mont they saw Fang Gu Lan being defeated, we might’ve still stood a chance!”
“Stop talking delusions; once Bing Xue were to face us, we would all be reduced to ashes by her divine light! Haven’t you heard at all about what happened to the Demonic Sects that rejected her offers of turning into a new leaf? They were all gone in a single day! Thousands of cultivators gone with a single flash of light from the skies! The survivors, all mortals, said that the blinding light felt like a punishnt from heaven!”
It seed the Immortals of Murim were greatly traumatized by Bing Xue and her ruthlessness, more than her family would’ve liked to hear.
“Hey bastards! Stop complaining or talking bad about my wife, or I’m going to chop you all into pieces!” Mursha roared; the barbarian orc quickly made the n all paralyzed, even more when she was so huge compared to the average man of Murim.
“Hyeeeh!”
“D-Don’t kill us!”
“W-We apologizeeee!”
“You’re sure pathetic once cornered, aren’t you?” Mursha sighed. “I am only letting you live because you stopped fighting. And my daughter… insisted a lot. But rember that if it were up to , you would’ve died even if you begged for rcy or surrendered.”
As the orc warrioress’ crimson eyes intimidated them, Rainbow Eyes rushed back to the group, as Fiery Hair greeted the boy while turning dozens of monsters into ashes.
“Son! You’re back with the screaming, cowardly man!” Said Fiery Hair.
“Yeah mom! He’s unexpectedly useful! He can seal the bad guys!” Rainbow Eyes said.
“Seal? Truly?! No trick?” Fiery Hair glared at Xue Xenxue with intimidating eyes.
“I-I assure you it isn’t a trick, your majesty!” Xue Xenxue muttered with a pathetic voice.
“Your majesty? I am not a queen. Ah, whatever, show then!” Said Mursha.
“Y-yes!” Xue Xenxue manipulated the flasks, as they quickly captured the ashes of the monsters that Kalana had destroyed.
The darkness surged from the flasks, but Xue Xenxue quickly sealed them back, stopping them from awakening and reviving!
“Like this!” He said, feeling tired.
“It worked?!” Mursha wondered. “Hmmm, okay, you’re useful then. Do the sa for everyone here.”
“E-Everyone?” Xue Xenxue noticed the entire group had been fighting over fifty monsters like this. “Hahaha…”
