Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

#540 - The worst bastard

Jun Wuxie was speechless; all of his attacks were useless.

However, he couldn't stop attacking and had to attract the female corpse's attention. Thus, he dodged and weaved in this area, looking extremely wretched.

He wanted to put the jewelry back on the female corpse, but he couldn't get close at all.

Not only was the defensive power of the clothes on the female corpse terrifying, but her physical body was also too strong, completely exceeding the limit that his power could break through!

After all, she was a Saint Realm expert before her death. Even with the suppression of order, she was still at the pinnacle of the Half-Saint realm.

If she hadn't died and was now controlled by the power of darkness, only knowing simple attacks, he had no doubt that he wouldn't last a single exchange in front of her.

Just as Jun Wuxie was racking his brains for a solution on how to escape, a blue light rushed over, and mysterious runes flashed at the same time.

The female corpse's body was instantly imprisoned, stopping in place and maintaining her attacking posture.

"Lanlan?"

He was stunned for a moment. How could he have forgotten Lanlan's supernatural power?

Realizing this, he quickly rushed in front of the female corpse, took out the ornaments, and was about to put them back on her body.

At this moment, Lanlan appeared above the female corpse, and with one bite, she grabbed the sword hilt stuck in the top of the female corpse's head and pulled it out with a 'poof' sound.

He saw a shimmering white flame light up on the female corpse's clothes, like a wildfire sweeping across the grassland. The black hair on her body instantly turned to ashes, the blood-red color in her eyes quickly faded, the ferocity completely disappeared, and her sharp fingertips quickly shortened.

Jun Wuxie was still holding the necklace, preparing to put it on the female corpse, but his movements stopped in mid-air as he stared at this scene in astonishment.

At this moment, he discovered that Lanlan's entire body was radiating light, and runes from the horn on her forehead surged out, rushing towards her mouth, enveloping the wisps of strange black energy there.

The black energy rushed left and right, trying to escape, but it never succeeded.

Jun Wuxie opened his palm, and the Solar True Fire burned in his palm. He grabbed it and forcibly refined the black energy.

At this moment, the power of imprisonment dissipated, and the female corpse collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Jun Wuxie vigilantly looked at the blood-soaked sword.

It looked unremarkable, but the power of darkness lurked within its blade.

Fortunately, the level of this power of darkness wasn't too high.

The World Tree said that this power was a curse deliberately created by the experts of the Dark World, spreading and diffusing like a virus.

It seemed that it had been spread too many times, causing its level of darkness to drop infinitely. Otherwise, his Solar True Fire probably wouldn't be able to do anything about it.

However, he didn't touch the sword. He could refine a wisp of the power of darkness, but that didn't mean he could refine all of the lurking power within the sword.

Moreover, the curse of darkness inside was attached to the sword, so its vitality must be much stronger.

He shifted his gaze to the female corpse, pondered for a moment, and released the flame that was fused from the Soldier Fire and the Solar True Fire, enveloping the female corpse, trying to control the flame to enter the female corpse's body and clear away the lurking curse of darkness within her body.

As a result, he tried repeatedly for several times but failed.

"What a pity…"

Jun Wuxie couldn't help but sigh.

At this time, Mu Yunxi, who was sitting on Lanlan's back and had put on her veil again, snorted angrily, "Are you trying to take off her clothes?"

"Cough, nonsense!" Jun Wuxie's expression turned serious, and he said righteously, "How could I possibly take off a female corpse's clothes? This kind of behavior is too disgraceful! I just think that treasures shouldn't be covered in dust and should play their due role. The world's resources are limited, and we should make good use of them, always remembering the truth that waste is shameful!"

Pfft!

Mu Yunxi couldn't help but laugh, but realizing it wasn't right, she immediately covered her mouth again.

"You laughed?"

Jun Wuxie saw that her mood was much better than before, and he felt relieved.

"Who laughed? Who wants to talk to you!"

Mu Yunxi coldly turned her head to the side, leaving him with a profile.

Jun Wuxie smiled without speaking and began to look for other female corpses here.

Sure enough, he saw several female corpses wearing the same clothes and jewelry.

Having learned from the previous experience, he first pulled out the weapons that had pierced the female corpses.

Then, he slowly took off all the jewelry on their bodies, as well as the waist tags, all of which were engraved with the four characters 'Cloud Immortal Holy Envoy'.

What kind of existence is this Cloud Immortal Sect or Cloud Immortal something?

A sect with a Saint!

Why has there never been any record of this force in the history books, and no one has ever even mentioned it?

Could it be that in a certain distant era, the height that people in this world could reach was not Half-Saint?

There were a total of three female corpses here, with bracelets, necklaces, earrings, and waist tags adding up to more than a dozen pieces.

Currently, Jun Wuxie couldn't completely determine the grade of these ornaments, but he knew that these things must be extraordinary.

When he finds a time to let Ye Qingxue or Zhuque erase the soul imprints in the jewelry, he will be able to use his divine sense to check whether they can be considered 'artifacts'?

"Lanlan, let's go!"

There was nothing else attractive here. Jun Wuxie jumped on Lanlan's back, hugged Mu Yunxi, and quickly headed forward.

Mu Yunxi struggled slightly, but knowing that she couldn't break free, she stopped moving, but she didn't talk to him along the way.

As they walked, the wide area gradually narrowed, and a mountainous area appeared in front of them, with many low peaks.

The mountains were covered with lush trees.

As they entered the mountains, the fur on Lanlan's neck gradually stood up, and she let out a low whimper.

Jun Wuxie instantly became vigilant and activated his Primal True Eyes to look around.

Lanlan's perception of danger was extremely keen. This seemed to be her unique ability, and she had never made any mistakes. Whenever she had such a reaction, it meant that there was a great crisis lurking around!

Rumble!

Suddenly, the surrounding scenery underwent earth-shattering changes.

What clearly seemed to be only a few dozen miles in radius turned into a vast and boundless area at this moment.

One mountain after another rose from the ground, each mountain body displaying terrifying runes, filled with a majestic and heavy aura.

The feeling was as if the mountains were pressing on their hearts, making them suffocate.

Immediately afterward, the void rumbled non-stop.

Jun Wuxie looked up, and his pupils couldn't help but contract.

Above the sky, mountains actually appeared, one after another, as if forming a natural great formation, rotating and then crushing towards them.

Before the mountains even reached them, while still far away in the sky, he felt his muscles cracking and the bones in his body seemed to be crushed.

Mu Yunxi couldn't bear it and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Jun Wuxie was shocked and hurriedly gathered all his strength to evolve a golden blood energy sphere to protect her inside.

The blood energy sphere only enveloped her alone, shrinking very small, almost touching her body.

Only in this way could its defensive power be brought to its strongest level.

"This is a natural field. Lanlan, quickly rush out!"

Jun Wuxie fully activated his Half-Saint level soul power, condensing it on the upgraded version of the Primal True Eyes, while directing Lanlan to avoid the crushing mountains, while checking this area.

He vaguely saw the natural rules operating, which were the changes and energy cycles formed by the mysterious magnetic fields overflowing from the earth and mountains, constructing this terrifying field.

Rumble!

A mountain condensed from magnetic field energy almost hit them.

Even though they avoided it, the turbulent aftershocks still caused Jun Wuxie's body to burst with patches of golden blood.

His muscles couldn't bear it and cracked open!

Mu Yunxi was well protected by the golden blood energy sphere and could barely withstand it.

Rumble!

Lanlan increased her speed to the extreme, exceeding two thousand times the speed of sound, but it was difficult to rush out of the field's range. After turning around, she found that she had returned to the starting point.

Mountains fell down, making it impossible for them to avoid.

"Dragon Scale Guard!"

Lanlan's horn shone, and a huge dragon scale shield appeared above them, blocking the crushing mountains with a 'dang' sound.

Even so, the remaining force still caused Jun Wuxie to spit out a mouthful of blood.

His heart sank. This field was too terrifying. Even if a Half-Saint stepped into it, they would probably die without a burial!

No wonder this place was called the Cliff of Certain Death. Coming here, a moment of carelessness would lead to eternal doom!

There must be more than one such field under this Cliff of Certain Death!

"Yi ya!"

Lanlan made an anxious sound. She was using her speed to dodge as much as possible, trying to find a way to leave the area covered by the field.

But no matter how she walked, she still returned to the same place.

Jun Wuxie's golden runes in his eyes were blazing as he scanned the entire area.

Soon, he discovered that the mountains rising from the ground here seemed to form a huge Bagua diagram.

At this moment, they were in the center of the Bagua diagram, located at the position where yin and yang alternate.

The yin and yang were constantly alternating and rotating, no wonder they couldn't get out, and they would always return to the same place.

"Lanlan, due east, Li position, three thousand meters!"

Lanlan was very smart and reacted quickly, instantly arriving at the position Jun Wuxie specified.

"Southeast, Dui position, fifteen hundred meters!"

"Due south, Qian position, three thousand meters!"

Jun Wuxie used his Primal True Eyes to see the operating rules of the field, guiding Lanlan to move.

In the sky, the mountains continued to crush down, several times on their inevitable path.

Dang!

The dragon scale shield blocked the unparalleled killing force, but Jun Wuxie and Lanlan were still shaken until their bones were broken and blood flowed from their ears, noses, and mouths.

Mu Yunxi was well protected. Jun Wuxie activated the Guardian Shield and covered her body with it.

Jun Wuxie pointed out the directions, and Lanlan changed direction and continued to rush inside.

After enduring more than ten bombardments, the dragon scale shield and space-time imprisonment were repeatedly used twice, Lanlan had become very weak, and finally rushed out of the field dangerously.

Once outside the range of the field, looking back, all the previous scenes disappeared, returning to the initial appearance of low hills, without any clues or any sense of danger, but rather a state of peace.

Lan Lan quickly shrank, panting on the ground, its blue fur stained red with blood.

Jun Wuxie and Mu Yunxi fell to the ground.

His whole body was covered in golden blood, and except for not being bald, he was no different from a golden Arhat.

Huff…

He was still afraid, but he didn't dare to relax. He sat paralyzed on the ground, vigilantly watching his surroundings, while repairing his body and recovering his depleted mental strength.

"Poor little Lan Lan."

Mu Yunxi gently stroked Lan Lan's back.

"Hey, am I not pitiful?"

"Who cares if you live or die!"

Mu Yunxi said coldly, not even looking at him, uttering ruthless words, but a hint of heartache flashed in her eyes.

"Alas." Jun Wuxie lay down, put his hands behind his head, looked at the swirling smoke in the sky, and said, "I offered my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines in the ditch, so ruthless."

Hearing this, Mu Yunxi's delicate body, who was stroking Lan Lan's fur, trembled slightly.

Her eyes quickly filled with tears, which fell one by one on Lan Lan's fur.

That bastard, he dares to say such things, turning the blame on her!

Yes, she offered her heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon shines in the ditch…

The falling flowers are intentional, but the flowing water is heartless, flirting and then running away, and saying such heartless words!

He is the worst, worst bastard in the world!

But, even if it weren't like this, what could she do?

That bastard, he actually… actually with the sect leader…

Doesn't he know the relationship between the sect leader and her?

Perhaps he really doesn't know, but this relationship is enough to make her hesitate and dare not take another step forward…

Jun Wuxie suddenly noticed that the atmosphere was a bit wrong.

He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Mu Yunxi.

She was facing away from him, her hands on Lan Lan's body, her shoulders trembling slightly.

"Why are you crying?"

He hurriedly stepped forward and hugged her from behind.

That strong and warm embrace made Mu Yunxi's delicate body tremble. Thinking of all the things since she met him, she couldn't help but struggle, feeling even more uncomfortable in her heart, and crying even harder.

"Okay, don't cry, it's my fault." Jun Wuxie hugged her tighter and said close to her ear, "What I said at that time was not sincere. I was in a state of intense anger and was also affected by the will of Shura, so I was very violent and lost my calm thinking."

Hearing these words, she gradually stopped struggling and stopped crying, and said in a low voice, "Really? Are you lying to me?"

"Silly girl, of course it's true. If I were lying to you, why would I jump off the Cliff of Death to find you?"

Mu Yunxi was slightly silent, and when she thought of his relationship with the sect leader, she couldn't help but feel sad. She broke free from his embrace, stood up, and kept a distance from him, saying, "I wish you hadn't come."

"Yunxi, don't say angry words, okay? When I find the Lifebone Flower and supplement it with Flesh Ganoderma, I can regenerate your right arm and restore your appearance. At that time, I hope you can forget all the unhappiness and return to the pure, aloof, and holy fairy you used to be."

"Wuxie." Mu Yunxi turned around and stared at him, her eyes red, filled with faint tears, and said, "I'm not saying angry words, I'm telling the truth. I wish you hadn't come to find me. I don't want to restore my arm or restore my appearance. I just want to stay alone quietly, even if I die."

"Yunxi, you…"

"Don't come over, don't come over!"

Seeing Jun Wuxie walking towards her, she retreated in a panic.

"What's wrong with you? What are you afraid of, and what are you running away from?"

Jun Wuxie was very worried about her state, which was more serious than he had imagined.

He could clearly feel the panic and fear in her heart.

"Don't come over, I beg you, let me go, please?"

Mu Yunxi almost collapsed, her body softened, and she knelt on the ground, already in tears.

She was really scared, scared of this man getting close to her.

Every time this man got close, her heart wavered, and she didn't want to and couldn't bear to refuse, and her mind would always recall those beautiful memories in the Xuanyuan Secret Realm.

Jun Wuxie stopped, looking at the collapsing Mu Yunxi, his heart was very sad.

If he hadn't wanted to protect her in the first place, and had parted ways with her after saving her from that secret realm, she wouldn't have become like this today.

She is a woman with a very clean and pure mind, and she shouldn't have to endure these things.

Jun Wuxie couldn't bear to see her like this any longer, and said in a slightly low voice, "I promise you, after I regenerate your right arm, restore your appearance, and take you away from the Cliff of Death, I will stay far away from you and never see you again…"
