Chapter 578C – Large and Soft

Chapter 578C – Large and Soft

Shen Yuanyin came to a sudden stop. A group of cultivators appeared in her line of sight, all of them rushing about like panicked headless flies.

This was because it wasn’t just Qin Yu who tried to leave the Sea of Purgatory just now. It was clear that they had all failed.

No one knew what happened. But it was exactly because they didn’t know that they felt even more fear.

These people that had fallen into panic and despair needed a way to vent their emotions. Right now, Shen Yuanyin who had just appeared was the best choice for them.

“It’s all because of this s.l.u.t!”

It was unknown who said this, but everyone subconsciously approved of it.

If it weren’t for her, why would they all have gathered here? And if they weren’t all gathered here, perhaps they might not be in such desperate straits right now.

This was a very forced line of reasoning; it could also be called completely illogical. But, did logic or truth have any significance in the current situation?

“Kill her!”

Those on the verge of despair could often erupt with an even greater destructive power.

To think about it from the dark side of human nature, perhaps these people thought that even if they were to die here, they needed to drag someone down with them.

It was like by killing Shen Yuanyin, they would have a psychological cushion supporting them…see, even if they were going to die, someone would at least have died before them, right?

Terrifying auras pierced through space. Multi-colored divine lights shined through the world, illuminating Shen Yuanyin’s pale face and her furrowed eyebrows.

At this moment, a bit of dazedness appeared in her mind. Was her death going to arrive without her leaving behind any trace of herself in this world?

Waves rose up in her mind, splashing up some fragmented images. Shen Yuanyin’s body stiffened. Before the overwhelming barrage of attacks arrived, she had already spat out a mouthful of blood.

This was a backlash from the Sublime Lost Emotion Code.

Behind her, Qin Yu suddenly paused. He looked at Shen Yuanyin’s unfamiliar back and he seemed to find a familiar feeling there.

His mind suddenly quaked and a powerful impulse broke free within his heart. Before he could even hesitate or think about it, his body had already reacted.

Bang –

A formidable strength erupted, directly twisting space. Qin Yu landed in front of Shen Yuanyin, his body like a mountain.

He lifted a hand and pressed forward. A deep blue wall of water loudly erupted, instantly forming the phantom of an endless sea region.

Following that, the dazzling beams of destructive light crashed within.

The sea region phantom violently shook and trembled, immediately nearing the edge of collapse. Qin Yu coughed out loud and blood flowed from his nose and mouth.

But he didn’t even take half a step back, no matter how overbearing the pressure on his body was. His bones ached and groaned.

Kacha –

Kacha –

The collapsed edges of the phantom sea region began to freeze over. Its defensive powers were immediately strengthened, sharing Qin Yu’s burden.

Shen Yuanyin’s complexion turned increasingly white. Her pupils were dim; she had already exhausted most of her strength.

She stood together with Qin Yu, facing off against a crowd of cultivators that had gone crazy, separated by a vast ice-bound sea.

Qin Yu looked at the frozen sea and his thoughts suddenly stirred. Within his mind, strange syllables sounded out.

Hum –

Above his head, the sea map slowly unfurled. An unsurpassed dignified aura was released from his body.

He pointed a finger down!

Bang –

A terrifying beam of light tore through the skies, suddenly arriving with a completely unparalleled momentum!

Beneath it, the cultivators all widened their eyes, revealing looks of endless fear.

But caught below this beam of light, much less resist it, they couldn’t even summon the strength to run away.

The ground violently shook. Violent waves immediately appeared, sweeping out in all directions.

A massive hole 10,000 feet wide was suddenly created. It was dark and dusty and it was impossible to see how deep it went. The cultivators that stood here had long since disappeared.

Within Qin Yu’s mind, there was a light cracking sound. He immediately felt pain as if a sharp stake was thrust into his brain. His face paled as all the blood drained away.

He closed his eyes. Before his consciousness thoroughly vanished, he felt as if he had fallen into the arms of a soft and delicate chest.

Traces of fragrance entered his nose…although it was unfamiliar, it caused his heartbeat to accelerate…

All he thought was how large and how soft it was…unfortunately, he fell asleep the next moment.

…

Seeing the massive hole in the ground that seemed to pass into the nine nether abyss, the group of cultivators chasing after Shen Yuanyin decided to disperse.

What nonsense! Although there was something wrong with the current situation and they might die at any moment, who really wanted to die before their last moments?

What if there was a chance they could still live? Even if they were destined to die, dying later was still better than dying sooner.

As for continuing the chase?

Don’t joke with me, that was simply travelling a thousand miles to deliver your own head to the enemy!

Sang Zhu’s face paled and her eyes flooded with fear. If Shen Yuanyin didn’t die, then even if she survived and managed to leave the Sea of Purgatory, she was destined to have a miserable fate.

While the Qi Empire was one of the seven great empires, from the very founding of their nation they always had the support of the Immortal Sect.

While the Immortal Sect acknowledged dignity and sovereignty of their empire, if it involved a plot to murder one of their direct descendants, this was an issue that could never be resolved.

Moreover, the stronger Shen Yuanyin was, the higher her status in the Immortal Sect must be.

The 17th royal brother furrowed his eyebrows. He didn’t bother with the cultivators that fled in all directions. Faint traces of light surged in the depths of his eyes.

He was reconstructing and replaying everything that happened before he arrived here.

Because the strength involved was too terrifying, causing the remnant aura to be twisted and for the final image to be incomplete, he could only approximately understand what occurred.

He ‘watched’ as Qin Yu made his move. He watched as the sea map slowly unfurled and the terrifying beam of light crashed down from the heavens. He stiffened for a moment. Though there was no expression on his face, his heart was already surging with tremendous waves.

It was unexpectedly a god-chosen person…this was actually quite troublesome. He didn’t doubt the strength of spiritual gods. In particular, the might behind that beam of light. Even though he only saw fragmented images, he could still feel the destructive strength contained within.

Even he wouldn’t be able to withstand being struck by that beam of light.

This was an extremely powerful spiritual god. Although it had already perished, the remnants of its divine might were still this terrifyingly powerful!

He clenched his teeth, unwillingness in the depths of his eyes. But, Sang Ke knew that he couldn’t keep chasing after them, otherwise he might suffer a life or death crisis.

He turned around and restrained his emotions. He lightly said, “Royal sister, let’s go.”

Sang Zhu was left in an absent-minded daze. She subconsciously nodded, terror and panic rising in her heart.

What to do? What to do?

Following behind Sang Ke, Sang Zhu’s mind raced. Ever since she was a child, she was never someone who willingly accepted her fate.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have struggled and plotted for all these years. If someone were to ask here to not do anything and simply wait for the end to arrive, that would be impossible for her.

“17th brother…”

Sang Ke stopped, “Royal sister, what is it?”

Sang Zhu firmed herself, “In 17th brother’s opinion, what sort of strength is required to create that deep hole?”

Sang Ke furrowed eyebrows. “A strength capable of killing a Calamity Immortal.”

Even though the shockwaves had already scattered, bits and pieces of remnant aura remained at the edges of the crater where the rock and dirt had melted away. It wasn’t hard to make this judgment.

Sang Zhu’s eyes brightened. “Great Chu’s Sea of Purgatory is connected with Ying Capital’s great array. It is rumored to be related to the national destiny of the Chu Empire itself. But, the most important matter is…does 17th brother believe that the Chu Empire would allow a Calamity Immortal to enter?”

Sang Ke’s eyebrow rose. “Royal sister’s meaning is…”

Sang Zhu went straight to the point. “It’s simple! I have no idea what method that woman used to erupt with such terrifying strength, but it must be her final life maintaining card. Moreover, who knows what sort of price she would need to pay for using this card. Since she was willing to use this ability, she must already be at the end of her rope.

“17th brother, everyone fled in fear, but none of them ever thought about how this might be the best opportunity to kill her…if that woman isn’t eliminated, even if you and I are part of the royal family’s direct bloodline, I fear we will both be in grave trouble.”

These last words were to vaguely remind Sang Ke that they were both standing on the same swaying bridge.

Sang Ke’s eyes slowly lit up. A happy smile appeared on his lips. He said in a soft voice, “It was I who was muddled. I thank royal sister for reminding me.”

He knew that the one who attacked wasn’t the woman, but another strange man.

And Sang Zhu wasn’t wrong. Even if he was a god-chosen person, he must have experienced extreme losses to erupt with such a terrifying strength.

Perhaps he might be in an extremely weakened state. If he could kill this god-chosen, then that…godhead…

Thinking of this, Sang Ke’s eyes filled with a blazing heat.

Sang Zhu was overjoyed. “It is exactly like this. 17th brother is so strong. If I help you, we can definitely kill her!”

Sang Ke smiled, “Then I’ll have to thank royal sister.”

But before his voice fell, he suddenly lifted a hand and grabbed onto Sang Zhu. A gloomy aura quickly drilled into her body.

Sang Zhu froze. Her eyes filled with amazement. “17th brother, what is the meaning of this?”

The royal family was not allowed to harm each other, otherwise they would receive a backlash from their bloodline. Everyone knew about this, hence why she had lowered her guard around him.

Sang Ke licked his lips, his tongue bright red. “Of course it’s because I wish to become a little more intimate with my royal sister.”

As he spoke, he leaned over and kissed her. Sang Zhu’s eyes flashed with shame and resentment but she immediately suppressed her emotions.

She was no longer a pure and naïve v.i.r.g.i.n. She didn’t find this difficult to accept. Moreover, within the royal family, in order to preserve and maintain their bloodline, marrying close relatives was common.

But she would surely remember this matter. If there was a chance in the future, she would make sure he suffered a life worse than death!

Though hatred blazed in her heart, Sang Zhu had already softened her body. Her face blushed red as if she were a fully willing participant in this.

But suddenly, her eyes flew open. In horror and panic, she crazily struggled.

Gulp –

Gulp –

Great swallowing sounds rose up. Sang Zhu’s body rapidly withered away. Even when her eyes fully darkened, she still had a look of disbelief.

Sang Ke actually dared to kill her…and she would actually die here…

Pata –

Sang Zhu’s withered corpse was casually tossed to the ground. Sang Ke had a face full of satisfaction as he crawled close to the ground and ate all her skin and dried up meat.

Only those that were starving knew how hard-won food was! It was intolerable to waste any of this!

He licked his teeth clean and then destroyed the bones. After erasing all traces, he patted himself, fully relaxed.

These were truly worthy of being royal descendants. Both of them had been delicious.

He closed his eyes, digesting and absorbing. Soon, he obtained Sang Zhu’s memories. Sang Ke’s eyes lit up with joy.

That little baby girl had a Pure Yin Body. Sang Zhu’s Yin Bearing Body had already benefited him greatly. If he could obtain that Pure Yin Physique, he might be able to complete his transformation.

What a joyous surprise!

The godhead was good, but the divine might was simply too potent so he had some scruples in his heart. However, if he could complete his transformation then his chances of fusing with the godhead would become much higher.

Sang Ke’s eyes flashed. He suddenly thought of an idea. If things worked out, he might not need to take too great a risk to achieve what he wanted.

He mulled it over for a long time. After determining it was possible, Sang Ke smiled in satisfaction. Black water surged out and wrapped around him. When the black water disappeared, another Shen Yuanyin appeared. Whether it was aura or temperament, all of it was the same.

This wasn’t Sang Ke at all – it was clearly the Water Marid that lived in the Sea of Purgatory!

What Sang Zhu couldn’t figure out even as she was dying was actually an incomparably simple truth.

Her cheap 17th brother had long since become food in the Water Marid’s belly. It was likely because of Sang Ke’s cheap actions that he used his identity.

After locking onto Shen Yuanyin’s approximate position, the Water Marid moved. He turned into a black mist that chased after her in hot pursuit.
