65: Taiyi Saint, Mingyue Awakens
The three moved quickly, and the scene ahead suddenly opened up.
One figure, in a white dress like snow, possessed an unparalleled grace.
She held a long sword, as clear as jade; each swing carried a transcendent Dao charm, and the sword light flowed like moonlight, cool and sacred.
It was the Saintess of Taiyi Holy Land, Ye Xihe.
Battling her was a man in a black robe.
He did not use any weapon, but his palms flew, and dark Devilish Qi gathered in his palms, forming devouring black whirlpools that swallowed all of Ye Xihe's indestructible sword light.
He was Mo Yuan, the Young Lord of the Netherworld Demonic Cult.
Jiang Chen and the other two stopped at a distance, concealing their auras, and watched with interest.
"It's Fairy Ye of Taiyi Holy Land and the Young Cult Master of the Netherworld Demonic Cult!"
Wen Yan recognized their identities at a glance. "Why are they fighting?"
Yu Meier's gaze fell on the white-clad woman in the arena, her brows slightly furrowed.
She and Ye Xihe had been notorious rivals since their youth.
One was hailed as a Righteous Path Fairy, the other called a Demonic Path enchantress.
Whether in cultivation, appearance, or fame, the two were constantly compared by busybodies, and naturally, neither thought highly of the other.
"It's better if they fight; it's best if they both perish together."
Yu Meier covered her mouth with a fan and snorted.
The battle in the arena had entered a white-hot stage.
Ye Xihe's Primordial Sacred Body gave her an affinity for Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi far beyond ordinary people, and every move she made resonated with the Great Dao, possessing infinite power.
However, Mo Yuan was even more bizarre.
No matter how sacred or sharp Ye Xihe's sword light was, once it was drawn into the black whirlpool, it instantly vanished without a trace.
With this ebb and flow, Ye Xihe was clearly at a disadvantage.
Fine beads of sweat had already appeared on her forehead, and her breathing was slightly rapid.
In contrast, Mo Yuan still appeared to be at ease.
"Fairy Ye, why struggle?"
Mo Yuan's voice was gentle. "If you are willing to submit to me and become my Demonic Consort, I guarantee you will experience unprecedented pleasure."
"Devil Head, stop spouting nonsense!"
Ye Xihe's pretty face was filled with anger, and her sword stance changed again; a sacred lotus bloomed at her sword tip, striking towards Mo Yuan.
Seeing this, Mo Yuan's smile grew wider. "A mere firefly dares to shine?"
He clasped his hands in front of his chest, and a black whirlpool several times larger than before appeared out of thin air, instantly swallowing the Pure World Lotus.
The black whirlpool twisted and expanded violently, and after a moment, everything returned to calm.
Ye Xihe's face paled, and her figure swayed slightly.
Just then, Mo Yuan and Ye Xihe almost simultaneously sensed something and looked in the direction of Jiang Chen and the others.
"You've been watching for so long, it's time to come out, isn't it?"
Mo Yuan's voice came, but his eyes grew profound.
Ye Xihe's gaze swept over Jiang Chen and Wen Yan, finally settling on Yu Meier.
Seeing that they were discovered, Jiang Chen no longer bothered to hide.
He led the two of them, leaping down from the cliff.
"You two continue, don't mind us."
Jiang Chen waved his hand and said.
"So it's Holy Son Jiang of Hongtian Holy Land and Fairy Yu of Joyful Union Sect."
Mo Yuan's gaze lingered mainly on Jiang Chen.
He had long heard of this Holy Son, who had recently risen to fame and whose actions were more like the Demonic Path than even their own Demonic Path.
"Holy Son Jiang."
Ye Xihe's cool eyes lit up when she saw Jiang Chen. "You've come at just the right time! If you and I join forces to eliminate this Devil Head first, then we can fairly compete for the Opportunity here, how about it?"
She knew very well that by herself, she couldn't do anything to Mo Yuan in a short time.
And Mo Yuan's devouring Law was incredibly bizarre; the longer it dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for her.
She had witnessed Jiang Chen's strength outside God Burial Valley; he was definitely a powerful ally.
However, no sooner had she finished speaking than Yu Meier let out a charming laugh.
"Hehehe... Great Fairy Ye, are you begging someone? Did I hear that right?"
Yu Meier swayed her figure, walked to Jiang Chen's side, almost pressing half her body against him, and deliberately spoke in an intimate tone.
"Holy Son Jiang isn't a mere henchman you can summon and dismiss at will, you know. If you want his help, you'll have to show some sincerity, won't you?"
Ye Xihe saw her seductive posture, her brows furrowed even tighter, and she coldly rebuked, "Enchantress! When I speak with Holy Son Jiang, when is it your turn to interrupt?"
"Righteous Path and Demonic Path are irreconcilable, Holy Son Jiang, are you going to associate with this enchantress and sit by as this Devil Head acts so viciously?"
"Oh, what a big hat to pin on him."
Yu Meier was not afraid at all; instead, she laughed even more happily. "Fairy Ye usually looks down on everyone, doesn't she?"
"Why is it that today she's actually asking for help? The sun must have risen from the west."
"You!" Ye Xihe's pretty face turned red with anger.
"Me what, me?"
Yu Meier pressed her advantage, proudly puffed out her chest, and looked at her provocatively. "Ultimately, why should the Saint help you? Is it because you look like you're attending a funeral, or because your mouth is good at pinning hats on people?"
Wen Yan watched from the side, dumbfounded, exclaiming inwardly how exciting it was.
A face-to-face squabble between a Righteous Path Fairy and a Demonic Path enchantress, this was far more stimulating than what was written in storybooks!
He even wanted to pull out some melon seeds.
Jiang Chen remained silent, just watching the scene before him with a half-smile.
Help Ye Xihe?
What's the benefit?
Gain a vague favor from Taiyi Holy Land?
This deal didn't seem very cost-effective.
Moreover, watching these two women bicker was much more interesting than watching them fight.
Mo Yuan also watched with interest; in his opinion, the so-called Righteous Path was just this hypocritical and ridiculous.
Ye Xihe took a deep breath, allowing her emotions to calm down.
She knew that arguing with Yu Meier was useless, so she turned her gaze to the silent Jiang Chen.
Her tone became a bit more sincere, "Holy Son Jiang, Mo Yuan possesses the devouring Law, which greatly restrains my Cultivation Technique. If he escapes, he will surely become a great threat in the future. As long as you are willing to help me, Taiyi Holy Land will surely offer a generous reward!"
Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow, just about to say something.
Just then, a loud bang came from the distant horizon, and the entire Ancient Tomb space trembled violently at that moment.
Everyone, including Jiang Chen, Mo Yuan, and Ye Xihe, who were in a standoff, simultaneously looked in the direction of the sound.
They saw a brilliant, multicolored divine light, like a pillar of heaven, soaring into the sky from the southeastern firmament.
Within the divine light, immortal phoenixes flew, true Dragons coiled, Qilins stepped on auspicious clouds... all sorts of incredible phenomena appeared one after another.
"This is... a peerless divine object appearing?"
Wen Yan's eyes widened, and he muttered to himself.
Ye Xihe and Mo Yuan's eyes also showed incredibly shocked and fervent expressions.
Such an anomaly, the Opportunity it represented, was absolutely extraordinary!
However, just as everyone was shaken by this astonishing phenomenon, the System's voice rang out in Jiang Chen's mind.
"Ding! Detected that the Heavenly Mandate Female Lead Nangong Mingyue is currently undergoing Fusion with the Taiyin Origin and Awakening the Profound Yin Sacred Body, triggering a Heaven and Earth phenomenon. The Divine Body Awakening process will attract countless strong individuals to covet it, and the danger level is extremely high!"
"Mission Issued: Prevent others from obtaining it!"
"Mission Reward: Massive Villain Points! Quasi-Emperor level Divine Ability!"
