409: Send this guy off for the last time! (4K monthly ticket request)
Inside the cabin, the black hand, Marquis Wenan, finally couldn't sit still.
The flickering light within suddenly intensified, becoming vast and bright, and then with a series of loud bangs, the windows simultaneously opened.
It was startling to see that there were no tables, chairs, benches, or candle lights as before, but rather a world of pure light.
Looking through the open windows, one could see green mountains, flowing clouds, a surging great river, and a clear sky for thousands of miles—a landscape as if they were the ones inside the boat, peering through the windows into a world.
In an instant, the clear and peaceful world within, with its clear skies for thousands of miles, saw its mountains and rivers tremble, the Nu River crash against the banks, stirring up thousands of piles of snow, followed by lightning and thunder, and the howling of a cold wind, causing the entire world to erupt in chaos.
Then, one heard:
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
A series of muffled tremors.
The white light of the so-called cabin trembled, rippling like a calm lake, then dissolving into nothingness like a reflection in a mirror, revealing the three-inch world clearly.
The golden light of the Seal was like a spatial barrier, trapping this world within it, and this world was currently in turmoil, with towering waves and flying mountains, crashing towards the “spatial barrier” formed by the golden light.
The San Taibao, who were presiding over the Three Powers Trapping Dragon Array with the Fashan Flag, saw the golden runes jump and flicker wildly under such bombardment, emitting a buzzing sound.
The Dharma Forms of the San Taibao, moving through the air, trembled slightly all over from this powerful and surging force, emitting low growls from their throats, their Physical Bodies showing bulging veins as they stabilized their True Qi.
“Brother Chen, this is a work of creation, our three brothers can’t quite hold it!”
Chen Yuan’s eyes blazed as he looked up at the distant eye of the storm spanning heaven and earth, then lowered his head to look at the large boat, suspended by the dragon binding cord, constantly trying to Break through the Seal, and let out a furious snort from his nose.
He suddenly struck downwards with his other hand, sending out a cyan-golden pillar of light, and then a small cyan-golden tower was seen flying out from within.
This nine-story tower flew out with a rumble, growing to dozens of feet in size against the wind, its body vibrating with Qi, imposing and prison-like, with countless grotesque demonic reliefs on it, which instantly came to life, appearing as if they wanted to break free from the reliefs.
“Roar!”
Hundreds of thousands of demons roared in unison, boiling in the night sky filled with rolling yellow sand, and above the demonic reliefs on the fifth floor, nine grotesque great demons actually burst halfway out of the reliefs, spewing Devilish Qi, their demonic might shaking the ground.
Four of them were slain by Chen Yuan outside Weiyuan Pass upon his return from Weiyuan Pass, while the other five were acquired in the battle of Qingshan County; the marks of these great demons were engraved on the reliefs, recording Chen Yuan's ferocity and achievements.
Even looking further into the fifth floor, there were two figures whose heads and scapulae were pierced by golden chains, suffering torture and wailing day and night.
The Demon Subduing Pagoda vibrated, applying its Seal power downwards to reinforce the Restriction, while thousands of demons howled at the sun and moon, rushing out with monstrous Devilish Qi, baring fangs and claws, with crimson eyes, and charged into the manifested world of creation below.
At the same time, as Chen Yuan moved through the Void Realm, he wielded his long spear, sending out streams of five-colored True Thunder with a roar.
Then, his eyes blazed, and with one hand forming a sword-finger, he pointed downwards and shouted,
“Instantaneous Bloom!”
The five-colored thunder trees that flew down flashed upon the golden shield, and indeed, electric snakes coiled upon it, blooming into extremely dazzling five-colored thunder lotuses, each three zhang in size, densely covering the golden shield's surroundings.
When the mountains and great waves below crashed over, the base of the thunder lotuses shot out a three-zhang thick pillar of lightning, shattering the mountain bodies and exploding the great waves.
At the same time, the North Sea Dragon Girl, who was helping to hold the line on the other side, also had a flash in her eyes, her silver robes sweeping, and her pair of dragon horn swords let out a clear Dragon roar, then remarkably transformed into two silver lights and flew in without fear.
After the two Flying Swords flew in, they remarkably transformed into two silver True Dragons, as if cast from silver water, stretching like mountains, their Dragon bodies charging and crashing, sweeping away a mass of rocks and waves.
And just as the five individuals were anxiously suppressing this mastermind relying on the Dragon Tiger Dao, at the very top, Old Man Dong of the Huanlong Clan stood on a giant yellow jade gourd, emitting sounds of exhalation, his hands waving in the air, while below the gourd's mouth, eight thick dragon binding cords, shimmering with blood-red runes, rattled, suspending the large boat, which appeared to be only about thirty zhang long but weighed more than a mountain, through the biting wind and sand, heading straight for the nearest eye of the storm in the vast darkness, as per Chen Yuan's instructions!
The surrounding wind howled, whipping up sand and gravel that felt like knife cuts, and the deeper they went, the sharper the gale became.
“Ding, ding, ding!”
Chen Yuan, leading the five great Wuzang, suppressed the Dragon Tiger creation while rapidly advancing, covering tens of li in a dozen breaths, continuously moving deeper into the storm.
The sand and gravel striking the Dharma Forms and protective spiritual light of the group produced dense and harsh sounds, sparking countless sparks, the momentum growing stronger and stronger, quickly reaching a terrifying level.
And they saw that there were still twelve or thirteen li left to the thick storm eye, which was three or four li in circumference.
Ten li, nine li, eight li...
As they approached the eye of the storm, it seemed that quantitative change led to qualitative change, reaching a certain critical point where the temperature of heaven and earth plummeted, and the Origin Qi of heaven and earth almost vanished; the fierce gale howled like a cold wind, carrying an astonishing chill that seeped into their bones.
The Taisui Mountain Three Taibao, who were maintaining the Trapping Dragon Array, were already in a delicate balance with their Dharma Form spiritual light due to the constant bombardment from the Dragon Tiger Dao. Now, facing the qualitative change of the storm, they felt as if wind blades were seeping in, and the chilling cold penetrated their bones, actually causing their Physical Bodies to ache. Even the operation of their Primordial Spirit Dharma Forms became sluggish, and their expressions couldn’t help but change slightly. They finally understood why this place was a Forbidden Ground that even demons dared not enter.
Even as Wuzang, their Primordial Spirit Dharma Forms could barely endure it.
With the eye of the storm right before them, they absolutely had to hold on at this critical moment. The three could only grit their teeth, activating their respective ultimate secret techniques, frantically pushing their Dharma Form power, their faces becoming somewhat distorted.
Jin Yu Mountain, amidst the howling gale of heaven and earth, shouted,
“Brother Chen!”
“This wind has suddenly changed; it can harm the Primordial Spirit. We can still buy five breaths!”
At this moment, Old Man Dong of the Huanlong Clan, who was rushing at the forefront, seemed much more relaxed on his Luck gourd. However, he suddenly sensed something, and with a look of surprise in his eyes, he gazed in the direction of the storm's eye and shouted to Chen Yuan, who was frantically suppressing the large boat,
“Little Chen, quickly use your third eye to light the way. I feel something approaching.”
Chen Yuan, who was continuously launching attacks with his spear, suddenly felt his brow twitch. His third eye between his brows, like a golden lacquer dot, lit up fiercely, and he abruptly raised his head, surveying the dark night ahead.
The next second, his pupils dilated, and a golden light suddenly shot out from his brow, splitting into two, and abruptly fixing on two spots five hundred zhang ahead.
Where the golden light fixed, there was originally nothing, but now, under the golden light's illumination, two humanoid phantoms appeared in the Void Realm.
The phantoms were formless and shapeless, like shadows projected in the Void Realm, appearing as a humanoid outline under the golden light's reflection.
Chen Yuan and the other six had not even detected the movement of these things.
After these two humanoid phantoms were revealed by the Dharma Eye, Chen Yuan's eyelids twitched, and he recalled that when the Ten Thousand Mountains regional map described this dangerous place, it mentioned a strange creature wandering in the depths of the storm, named “Xi Yi” Monster.
The two characters “Xi Yi” hold a unique meaning in Daoism. The Laozi states, “That which you look at but cannot see is called Yi. That which you listen to but cannot hear is called Xi.” He Shanggong’s commentary: “Colorless is Yi, soundless is Xi.”
Soundless, colorless, formless, shapeless.
Chen Yuan looked at these humanoid monsters with surprise, but his hands were not hesitant, and he shouted two heavenly thunders towards these two humanoid monsters.
Lightning flashed across the long space, and the thunder trees bloomed, striking the golden light!
But the two phantoms, under the bombardment of the most rigid and pure heavenly thunder, seemed to suffer no damage at all, as if they were not even in this Void Realm, and the heavenly thunder struck nothing.
However, the golden light of the Dharma Eye that had fixed their bodies now shattered into spiderweb-like cracks, then slowly peeled away and dispersed like a broken mirror.
It was at this moment that a furious roar from the one calling himself Marquis Wenan came from within the sealed world of mountains and rivers. Then, that “world” suddenly changed; from the towering waves that surged towards the sky, white mist rose, and dark figures stepped out on the waves, rolling with the white mist, gathering into a mass, filled with the evil Qi of the six desires, making one feel an astonishing malice rapidly condensing within.
As more and more black Qi condensed, the Qi within became increasingly intense, as if it wanted to burst through this world of creation.
“Swish!” “Swish!”
Two silver True Dragons roared, attempting to block them, but two large black hands reached out fiercely from the white mist, gripping the two Dragon bodies tightly with a single clasp. As the two grotesque hands exerted force, the two silver True Dragons revealed their Flying Sword true forms, emitting a buzzing sword hum and trembling continuously.
As this malevolent Qi surged, the five-colored thunder lotuses on the golden Restriction also shot out rays of lightning, flashing towards the rapidly condensing colossal demonic shadow in the white mist.
The True Thunder submerged into the white mist, but it was like a mud ox entering the sea.
The next second, two crimson lights illuminated from within the white mist, flaring upwards, revealing a pair of blood-red eyes, and surging malice erupted like a volcanic explosion.
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
“Boom!”
The five-colored thunder lotuses blooming on the golden array could not withstand this impact and exploded one by one, the golden light trembled violently, and the Seal was about to Break through at any moment.
Seeing this, Chen Yuan and the others’ expressions changed.
Ahead, there were also two strange monsters blocking their path!
At this moment, they were only four li away from the terrifying eye of the storm!
Having managed to fight to this point, how could Chen Yuan allow his efforts to be in vain? His eyes blazed like lightning, and he went wild, making a decisive decision, and shouted sternly at Old Man Dong, “Old Dong, swing this fellow in! I’ll send this fellow on his way for the rest of the journey. I can fix this monster with my Dharma Eye, you all retreat!”
“Good!”
Old Man Dong received the command, then let out a loud cry, his Physical Body expanding, and green Dragon scales emerged from beneath his skin, revealing his Azure Dragon form, filled with a violent and fierce Qi. Then, as if exerting all his might, the veins on his eyelids throbbed wildly, and he manipulated the dragon binding cords suspending the large boat in the air, shaking it violently.
Like a swing, the large boat was remarkably swung up, and then the dragon binding cords embedded in the large boat remarkably broke open. Thus, the large boat, its body trembling violently and its Seal about to loosen, was directly swung towards the eye of the storm.
The Void Realm vibrated and roared, emitting a loud sound. The large boat thus sliced through the strong winds and swung towards the eye of the storm. Along the way, the large boat crushed the Void Realm where the two “Xi Yi” Monsters, who had broken free from the Dharma Eye's golden light, were located. After breaking free from the Dharma Eye's golden light, they also rushed towards Chen Yuan and the others.
However, strangely, when the large boat's hull passed over the Void Realm where these monsters were, the hull passed through the bodies of the two monsters without any hindrance.
But the next second, these two “Xi Yi” Monsters actually abandoned rushing towards Chen Yuan and the others, and instead directly shifted through the Void Realm, passing through the golden light without hindrance, and entered the “world” where the demonic shadow was raging!
Then, they rushed into the white mist!
This sudden change happened in a flash.
Seeing this, Chen Yuan’s eyes flashed with brilliant light. His Primordial Spirit Dharma Form moved with large strides against the violent gale, and the Three-Pointed, Double-Edged Spear in his hand buzzed as he violently pushed it, propping up the swinging large boat. Then, with a burst from his feet, he roared and carried the large boat towards the increasingly close eye of the storm.
Three li, two li, one li...
As they drew closer to the eye of the storm, the murderous aura here grew increasingly sharp. At this point, the gale reached a terrifying level, constantly eroding the Dharma Form spiritual light, and the Origin Qi of heaven and earth could not be replenished here. Even a half-step Dragon Tiger would be completely reduced to a human stick by the bone-scraping gale if they stayed for a period of time, until they turned to ash.
However, this was exactly the result Chen Yuan wanted!
Such a dangerous place posed little hindrance to him. He summoned the Azure Dragon and Fire Phoenix to protect his body, and his essence Qi continuously surged throughout his entire body. Then, his eyes sharpened, and he looked at the square-inch “world” ahead, which was letting out roars of shock and anger, and his long spear vibrated.
“This General will send you on your final journey!”
As he finished speaking, a loud buzzing sound erupted, and he shook the large boat, along with the Dragon Tiger Dao, into the colossal, world-destroying eye of the storm, a hundred zhang ahead!
After the large boat was sent in, it was immediately seen being spun high into the sky by the violent eye of the storm. This boat, which had been as sturdy as a divine weapon under the combined attacks of many Wuzang, now looked like a small boat swaying in a stormy sea. The terrifying tearing force made it seem as if it could be ripped apart at any moment.
And within it, the sealed “world” saw its golden light torn apart and dispersed, and that “world” fell into the storm. The terrifying power within the storm instantly invaded it, causing it to spin wildly, its mountains and rivers to crumble, and the white mist within it was directly shredded, revealing an incredibly grotesque and hideous monster.
It was like an “assembled product” made up of countless evil thoughts!
That guy’s face was still the one Chen Yuan had seen before!
However, at this moment, Marquis Wenan, with blood-red pupils and a terrified expression, saw his reliance torn apart by the terrifying storm, and he himself was caught in the vortex.
Moreover, there were also two monsters unaffected by the storm, attacking him.
Chen Yuan, relying on his continuous essence Qi, resisted the gale and coldly watched all of this.
“Chen Yuan!”
A heaven-shaking shriek, filled with endless unwillingness, unwillingness to die like this. (End of Chapter)
