Chapter 514 – Wei Yuan and Liu Hanzhen
"Fight!"
The referee on the stage signaled the match.
Fu De laughed as he transford into a massive demon bat with a thousand small blood-sucking bats. The army of bats shone in red light as it charged soul Qi and blood elent Qi into their bodies. Then, they sward Wei Yuan.
They turned into suicide bombers!
Wei Yuan scoffed at the suicide bomber bats. She had sparred against Miaomiao's clone before in Isolation Training Space, and she got used to dealing with his ability, Sheer Heart Attack.
The aura of Miaomiao's bomber toy was more intimidating than these small bats. Moreover, Wei Yuan was immune to Blood Elent attacks.
Wei Yuan expanded her chaos domain and enveloped the bats with her law-bending power.
The bats suddenly paused. Half of them turned around and transferred their blood elent Qi to Wei Yuan. The remaining bats turned around and charged at Fu De.
"!!!"
Fu De was shocked. The bats were born from his Dao Pillars, but they betrayed him.
BOOM
Soul Qi and Blood Elent Qi detonated, pushing Fu De away from Wei Yuan.
Wei Yuan mimicked ng Xin, straightening her arm like a sword. Then, she swung it down.
The spatial dinsion above Fu De to the area under him was cleanly sliced.
Fu De widened his eyes as he felt the mysterious force passing through his body. He was cleaved in half!
However, his soul core was safe. He could still reattach his body together and recover.
But Wei Yuan hadn't finished yet. Her other hand reached out to grasp empty air. Her fingers folded as if she had seized sothing.
The giant bat's neck suddenly contracted as if soone had squeezed it to the point that Fu De's head was about to burst from the pressure.
Yet, Fu De didn't give up. He turned into black mist and slipped away from Wei Yuan's spatial hand.
"You can't escape!"
Wei Yuan made a hand incantation, and the spatial hole behind Fu De began sucking the mist into the other dinsion.
Fu De didn't resist. He laughed and mocked her, "Foolish girl! Spatial cracks are just distorted space! It will just lead to the void!"
"Are you sure?"
Wei Yuan sneered as she brought out a blank transparent crystal.
Obviously, it was not a normal crystal. If soone were to pay attention to the crystal, they could have seen a small crack inside.
The hole connected with the spatial crack that Wei Yuan had made!
Fu De escaped into the void crack. Then, the black mist entered the crystal in her hand.
Wei Yuan snickered as she commanded the spatial crack in her domain to close. The hole in the crystal also closed.
She juggled the hand-sized crystal around and gazed at the referee.
"I've captured and imprisoned my opponent in this treasure. Do I need to kill him to win?"
"…"
The referee widened his eyes and stared at the mysterious crystal in Wei Yuan's hand. A mont later, he recognized it.
"Oh, the Soul Devouring Crystal? If I rember correctly, this item is strictly forbidden since Samsara forbids us from destroying or devouring souls. Where did you get this?"
Wei Yuan smirked, "Just tell if I win or not. If the match isn't over, I'll just kill the guy in here."
"But the item is a taboo…"
"A reminder, Samsara is dead. Why should I follow his rules when the law enforcer is already dead?"
"WHAT?!"
The referee turned to the VIP box room, where Karen and others were. He muttered sothing to himself as he was communicating with the swan goddess.
A few seconds later, the referee learned the shocking piece of news. He bitterly smiled at Wei Yuan.
"… The match continues until one side gives up, falls unconscious, or dies. The match resus. Also, this item is no longer a taboo item. You may use it freely."
"I see."
Wei Yuan smirked as she injected her chaos elent Qi into the crystal.
anwhile, Fu De was confused. He was sucked into the void, but he entered a white space. He floated in the middle of this dinsion and looked around.
The giant bat reverted back into his human form. He spread his sense to check the surroundings.
He found nothing.
"What is this place?"
He started sweating profusely. His instinct told him that he had fallen into a trap.
Suddenly, the white void collapsed on him. His entire body was suppressed by an unknown force, and it slowly crushed his soul core.
"NOOOOOO!!"
Fu De scread as he tried to move, but he couldn't even lift a finger. His Soul Qi and Elental Qi left his body, and the strange world compressed him into a speck of dust.
The soul core was shattered and crushed. He died without learning what had killed him.
The remnant of Fu De's energy was dispersed, and the white space turned it into its fuel.
Just like that, an 8th-stage cultivator perished.
Wei Yuan withdrew a portion of Fu De's Blood Elent Qi from the immortal-grade treasure to replenish her lost Qi. She turned to the referee again.
"Your verdict?"
"…"
The referee inspected the orb. Upon sensing that Fu De's aura and life signature was gone, he sighed.
"Winner, Wei Yuan."
Wei Yuan giggled and turned to the VIP box room, "I demand all the prizes that you had promised earlier. Also, instead of sending a pEeRLeSs bEaUtY to be my chamber companion, I want ten advanced elent crystals!"
Murmur
The spectators and the immortals in the VIP room looked at Karen and Lilith's agent. They whispered among themselves, wondering what the goddess would react to this shaless oni's demand.
Wei Yuan indeed was talented and worthy of being scouted by immortals. However, the problem was that – She was Miaomiao's wife, and Miaomiao was not a recruitable vessel candidate.
There was no point showering her with their favor. Instead, they should be kicking her out of this tournant so that the other contestants could thrive.
Karen glanced at the lamia next to her. The latter also looked back.
"Tell her that her majesty Lilith shall give her what she wants."
"Fine."
Karen sent a sound transmission to the referee in the arena.
The referee widened his eyes and stroked his beard, hiding his astonishnt. Then, he declared.
"Wei Yuan shall receive extra rewards for showing her talent. Her Majesty Lilith shall bestow her a heaven-grade artifact, an immortal-grade cultivation thod, a thousand first-grade soul stones… and ten advanced elent crystals!"
WAAAAA
The spectators in the stadium stood up and cheered even though they were envious of Wei Yuan. They were excited that another tournant winner got their rewards as promised.
Lilith was indeed generous. Every mortal was curious about her identity and her relationship with Karen now.
Wei Yuan turned around and exited the arena, entering backstage.
However, as she was about to leave, a handso man blocked her path. He wore golden robes as if he was a mber of royalty, but his aura was even stronger than Huang Hansheng or Dian Wei.
"Hello, Lady Wei. I'm Liu Hanzhen, the crown prince of the Great Liu Clan."
Liu Hanzhen introduced himself as he reached his hand to touch her face.
Wei Yuan frowned. However, instead of pushing the hand away, she allowed him to stroke her cheek.
Her Chaos Domain enveloped Liu Hanzhen, and she commanded the space around him to tear him apart.
"WHOOPS!"
Liu Hanzhen laughed and disappeared. He reappeared 10 ters behind Wei Yuan.
"As much as I wish to play with you, my match is next. I'm looking forward to fighting you on the next round."
Wei Yuan raised one of her eyebrows and turned to Liu Hanzhen. Then, she glanced at the place where she had twisted the space on him.
There was a trace of Liu Hanzhen Soul Essence there. She managed to injure him, but it was too shallow. His soul dantian seed strange, and Wei Yuan couldn't sense it from him.
"…"
Wei Yuan closed her eyes and took several deep breaths. She also had the urge to fight Liu Hanzhen in the next round, but she didn't have any reason to risk her life for this guy's belongings.
She entered backstage and returned to the staff office, planning to resign from the tournant right away.
As Wei Yuan was walking in the hallway, she ran into Zhou Gongjin, who had been leaning on the hallway's wall and texting sothing with his J-Phone.
Zhou Gongjin rembered Wei Yuan's presence. He looked up and saluted her, "Mistress Wei, congratulations on your victory. I heard the announcent just now."
Wei Yuan was curious how this dark horse fared in this tournant since he had won both rounds so far, "How are you doing these days? Are you going to keep on fighting?"
"Oh, I'm perfectly alright. Unfortunately, my friend's father has just passed away, and I'm no longer in the mood to continue fighting. But still… I have a reason to win this tournant."
Zhou Gongjin's pupils couldn't hide his ambition and rage.
"Good luck, then. Be sure to stop when you think you can't continue."
"I'll be fine. Please send Lord Mao Miaomiao my regards."
"If he returns, that is…" Wei Yuan didn't bother asking what Zhou Gongjin had been doing during the past few weeks. She nodded at him and left him alone.
…
Wei Yuan visited the staff office and resigned from the tournant in advance. The paper was done, and she was officially out of the tournant.
However, when Wei Yuan left the office, another 9th-stage cultivator blocked her path.
Wei Yuan looked up to see who the troublemaker was. She also touched her J-Phone, sending text ssages to Azazel, Uriel, and Dian Wei for help.
The cultivator was an elderly man in gold robes, similar to Liu Hanzhen. He had a white long beard, long white hair, and withered skin. His skinny arms and legs seed so fragile that Wei Yuan believed that she could break them with a light touch.
"Hello, young lady. I'm Liu Hanzhen and Liu Xuande's father."
He was the patriarch of the Great Liu Clan!
"… Hello, sir. What can I do for you?" Wei Yuan was taken aback.
"I just co here to withdraw my son from the tournant. But young lady, did you just withdraw from the tournant?"
"Yes. I'll be honest. I don't want to fight your son."
"I see. So am I. I don't want him to fight you."
Wei Yuan felt like she had lifted a heavy mountain off her chest. It seed like Liu Hanzhen's father was considerate and likable.
It was the son that deserved a spanking.
"Anyway, since you already withdraw from the tournant, I hope that our clans can still be amicable."
"Have our clan provoked your clan, senior? If so, I must also apologize."
"Hahaha! It's all good. Well, good luck. I need to talk to the tournant manager now."
The emperor of the Great Liu Clan ended the conversation and entered the staff room.
As soon as Liu Hanzhen's father entered the room, another person approached her.
She was Lilim, the dark elf. Behind her, Sun Bofu was there, following Lilim around.
"Wei Yuan, the granddaughter of Wei Huang, correct?"
"Yes. Who might you be?"
"I'm the First Princess of Netherworld Realm. The master of your husband asked to fetch you."
"Huh?"
This was the first ti that Wei Yuan heard about Netherworld Realm. Also, she wondered who this master was since Miaomiao had many backers.
Lilim didn't allow Wei Yuan to react. She pressed on, "Since you no longer participate in this farce, you'll be coming with ."
"But I haven't received my prizes and rewards yet."
"I'll bring it to you after the tournant ends. For now, follow ."
"…"
Without a choice, Wei Yuan followed Lilim's instruction. She couldn't provoke this stranger, who seed to be more powerful than normal immortals.
Wei Yuan kept texting Uriel and Azazel, asking for help.
And finally, she got her reply. Uriel texted her.
"Follow Lilith's subordinates to the Netherworld Realm. Mao Miaomiao is now working for Lilith."
"…What?"
This was not a piece of good news. She didn't like this change.
…
Kang Yan, Ma Xingjuan, Dian Wei, and Zhou Gongjin didn't have a problem defeating their opponents in the third round. As for Mao Xueyan, she successfully resigned from the tournant, and an agent of Lilith dragged her to the Netherworld Realm as well.
anwhile, Miaomiao and Xu Chu took their ti to digest the negative karma. Even after several days, the bundle of karma threads didn't decrease by much.
Instead of reducing the threads around them, more negative karma from the void and other planets were attracted to them. More threads coiled around the cocoon of karma threads and increased its volu.
Without realizing it, the ssy cocoon of negative karma threads was now as big as the Moon.
Lilith gazed at the negative karma threads. She locked her divine sense on Miaomiao and Xu Chu in the center of this cocoon and observed them.
She also calculated how long Miaomiao and Xu Chu would transcend this tribulation.
'1,257… 2,193… Probably sowhere around 3,000 years. This will probably take too long.'
Karma Tribulation was sothing that even deities avoided. For a mortal, even if a miracle were to happen, it would have taken forever to assimilate all these negative karma strands with his soul dantian and physique.
Lilith's expression turned dark as she disliked waiting. She sent her sound transmission to Joshua and Devil to rush things.
"Joshua, Devil, can you access Mao Miaomiao's pocket dinsion and fetch the ti-and-space murals for ? I will gather them and let Miaomiao learn the Chrono Elent."
Lilith wanted Miaomiao to comprehend Chrono Elent while he overca the tribulation. If he had this elent's ability, he should be able to accelerate things.
However, it was just a pipe dream. Joshua gave her a piece of bad news.
'That's impossible.'
Devil also shot her down, 'Even I can't access my counterpart's secret dinsion. Unless you can bring the last piece of the mural to us, we can send it directly to Miaomiao's pocket dinsion space and let him take care of the rest.'
Lilith didn't like it, 'What the hell? You can send it, but you can't take items from him?'
'I can, but I have to take it from his dead body as I did to others. Obviously, I won't kill him.'
"…"
Lilith cut the connection.. She scoffed and turned to her agent, whom she had been sent to extort ng Hong's mural piece.
