279: Taiyin returns to the void!

At this moment, it wasn't just you; Zi You's expression also froze instantly.

"What did you say?"

Zi You looked at Ye Chuxue in disbelief, her ears ringing.

You saw the resolute look in Ye Chuxue's eyes, and your heart trembled violently.

You were all too familiar with the look in Ye Chuxue's eyes at this very moment.

It was the same look you had seen when you first discussed the future and the Weird Insects with Ye Chuxue at Azure Cloud Sect.

At this moment, you were certain that the person before you was indeed Ye Chuxue and not the Lord of Taiyin.

"You are no match for him!"

You knew Ye Chuxue desperately wanted to kill the Guichong Ancestor, but you remained rational.

You knew that Ye Chuxue absolutely could not be a match for the Guichong Ancestor before her; that last move was already Ye Chuxue's limit, you could tell.

Upon hearing your words, Ye Chuxue bit her lip, as if a decision within her made her hesitate.

Soon, you saw Ye Chuxue's expression change, from the previous struggle to one of relief.

"Don't worry, that wasn't my trump card!"

"But..."

You were about to speak again to persuade Ye Chuxue, but then you noticed Ye Chuxue's expression had once again reverted to that cold demeanor.

"I said, I will deal with him personally!"

Ye Chuxue coldly told you in an unyielding tone.

Subsequently, you and Zi You watched in shock as Ye Chuxue once again unleashed terrifying Taiyin power.

This Taiyin power directly pushed you and Zi You back several hundred meters, completely moving you away from the dangerous range of the Guichong Ancestor.

You looked at the distant, cold figure with disbelief.

You couldn't understand why Ye Chuxue's aura, which had clearly begun to wane, suddenly erupted with an even fiercer aura than before.

You saw that Taiyin Qi was continuously surging from Ye Chuxue's body, and this Taiyin power seemed to be burning.

"Wait!"

"Burning!"

You suddenly seemed to realize something and shouted loudly at Ye Chuxue, wanting her to abandon her actions.

Clearly, Ye Chuxue had made up her mind and was no longer holding back.

Not far away, Xuanyuan Tianji also noticed Ye Chuxue's abnormality.

Xuanyuan Tianji stared intently at Ye Chuxue, watching the surging dark blue fiery shadows on her body.

"Is she burning her Taiyin Origin power...?"

"Could it be that move?"

Xuanyuan Tianji's voice was neither loud nor soft; everyone present could hear it.

You turned to Xuanyuan Tianji, asking her about Ye Chuxue's current state.

In your opinion, among those present, only Xuanyuan Tianji had some understanding of the Lord of Taiyin's matters; the rest of you knew very little about the Lord of Taiyin and the Taiyin Body.

Xuanyuan Tianji looked at you with a complex expression.

"This is the Taiyin Body's strongest Origin Divine Ability — Taiyin Returning to the Void Tribulation!"

Xuanyuan Tianji told you that this move would consume about ninety percent of the Taiyin Origin power, and the caster would fall into a long period of slumber after using this move.

"Long period of slumber? How long?"

Xuanyuan Tianji shook her head.

"Unknown!"

"Perhaps a hundred years, perhaps a thousand years!"

Xuanyuan Tianji told you that according to records, the shortest slumber after using this move was at least a hundred years.

Xuanyuan Tianji told you that this was because of the excessive consumption of Taiyin Origin power; the host had to fall into slumber to slowly recover the Taiyin Origin power.

Xuanyuan Tianji told you that Taiyin Origin power could only be replenished on the night of the full moon each year, specifically on the single day of the year with the fullest moon.

"Slumber isn't terrifying; what's terrifying is that during slumber, Ye Chuxue's consciousness will fall into endless darkness. If, after a hundred years when her Origin recovers, her consciousness hasn't persevered, then her only outcome is death!"

Hearing this, everyone's gaze turned to Ye Chuxue.

At this moment, a massive black vortex had already condensed behind Ye Chuxue.

According to Xuanyuan Tianji's description earlier, this black vortex was the Taiyin Returning to the Void that could devour everything; within the Taiyin Returning to the Void, everything would transform into the purest Taiyin power.

During the condensation of the black vortex, you saw the Guichong Ancestor in the distance reveal a rare expression of fear.

You saw the three blood-red eyes on the Guichong Ancestor's face rotating wildly, finally fixing their gaze on Ye Chuxue.

In an instant, you saw a red light flash in the Guichong Ancestor's eyes.

The next second, the massive black vortex behind Ye Chuxue instantly disintegrated, disappearing within a few breaths, while Ye Chuxue's eyes went black, and she fell straight from the sky to the ground, unconscious.

Seeing this scene, your entire body tensed instantly, and cold sweat broke out on your back.

"This... what... what move was that?"

This time, after waiting so long, you finally saw the Guichong Ancestor use that move, the one that killed you in an instant.

However, you only saw a red light flash in the Guichong Ancestor's three blood-red eyes, and then Ye Chuxue fell unconscious. You didn't know what the Guichong Ancestor had done in that instant.

Just as you were in a daze, Zi You had already rescued the unconscious Ye Chuxue.

Zi You looked at Xuanyuan Tianji, asking her about Ye Chuxue's condition.

"Could it be that Ye Chuxue's Realm is too low to fully unleash the Taiyin Returning to the Void Tribulation?"

From Zi You's perspective, the Weird Insects didn't move at all; Ye Chuxue herself suddenly fainted.

Therefore, her first thought was that something was wrong with Ye Chuxue herself.

Xuanyuan Tianji frowned, looking at Ye Chuxue; she also didn't know what had happened to Ye Chuxue.

In Xuanyuan Tianji's understanding, the Taiyin Returning to the Void shouldn't cause such a situation; Ye Chuxue was clearly still in the preparation stage and hadn't condensed the complete Taiyin Returning to the Void.

On the other side, when you recovered, you found that Ye Chuxue had already been rescued by Zi You.

However, the next second, an expression of horror once again appeared on your face.

You saw that the Sword Pavilion disciples, who were fine just a second ago, all fell unconscious simultaneously the next second.

Within Haotian Holy Land, only you remained unharmed.

You were about to go check on everyone's condition but were suddenly interrupted by the Guichong Ancestor's tentacles.

You saw the Guichong Ancestor's massive fleshy orb; although it had no face, only three blood-red eyes, you saw a look of amusement in its gaze.

The spiritual power that had just recovered a little was also used in the previous battle.

You could only continuously block the tentacles with the Great Void Immortal Sword.

"Damn it!"

You could tell that the Guichong Ancestor was toying with you.

With a squelch!

You looked down at your chest in disbelief.
