139: Chapter 138 Holy Spirit War Angel
Keisha and Hexi were, after all, Angel Kings who had lived for thirty thousand years, and they steadied their chaotic state of mind in a moment.
Now that Ye Qingxuan and his party had appeared, their predetermined future had long been completely rewritten, and the two of them simultaneously bowed deeply to the four people of Ye Qingxuan.
"We kindly ask the Daoist Master to act and save our Angel Tribe."
Ye Qingxuan looked at the two of them, his tone carrying a bit of playfulness: "What, are you no longer stubbornly guarding that so-called justice in your mouths?"
A wave of shame welled up in Keisha's heart; the order of justice they had firmly guarded for tens of thousands of years, placed in the eyes of this mighty figure before them, was probably so absurd as to be not worth mentioning.
Bai Yuekui on the side felt a bit of curiosity and spoke softly: "Having just witnessed the ending of your own demise with your own eyes, you are instead not surprised. Logically speaking, shouldn't you feel fear in your hearts?"
Keisha gently sighed: "I actually had enough of living long ago. For thirty thousand years, the heavy burden of the entire Angel Tribe has been pressed entirely on my single shoulders, and I was exhausted both physically and mentally long ago. Moreover, I am not considered completely dead. After hundreds of millions of years, I can still return once more."
"Queen Keisha!" Hearing this, all the angels were shocked. Their queen didn't want to live anymore?
As soon as those words landed, Duyuan couldn't help but complain on the spot: "You couldn't even endure after living for just thirty thousand years? Besides, with a Divine Soul as weak as yours, it takes hundreds of millions of years of time to resurrect. Would you still be you by that time?"
All the angels present turned their heads in unison to look at Duyuan, their eyes filled with anger. This monk was belittling their queen!! If they hadn't been unable to beat him, they would have swarmed up long ago.
Remembering that the Angel Civilization had once protected this Yanhuang, Duyuan patiently and slowly spoke: "Cultivating only destiny without cultivating Heart-Nature is the number one malady in cultivation since ancient times."
"You are single-mindedly elevating your Physical Body and piling up energy, yet you do not go to polish your Divine Soul. A fragile Divine Soul simply cannot withstand the erosion of time."
"True mighty figures sit and watch the birth and destruction of all things; a single closed-door meditation is tens of thousands of years, yet their Heart-Nature will not be worn away by time in the slightest."
"You vainly possess Physical Body energy comparable to the Void Return stage, but your Divine Soul cultivation barely reaches only Soul Transformation. A few thousand years would be fine, but after tens of thousands of years of day-after-day torment, your Divine Soul couldn't bear the heavy load, naturally giving rise to world-weary and death-seeking thoughts."
His gaze swept over Hexi, and he continued: "This silver-haired female donor is the same. When you actively jumped into a black hole in the future, you must have done it intentionally. The Divine Souls of both of you have long since been exhausted and fatigued by time."
Keisha and Hexi were suddenly startled upon hearing this, instantly waking up to the realization. The eternal true love and million-year companionship that they used to chant in their mouths now felt incomparably ridiculous.
Walking down this deformed system, let alone a million years, after another two or three tens of thousands of years, all angels would become like them, giving birth to fatigue in their hearts-nature.
Just like those retired old angels, every single one of them had a world-weary face.
Keisha clenched the long sword in her hand, a trace of Battle Intent burning in the depths of her eyes, and raised her head to ask: "Daoist Master, I want to know, how much does our divine body system differ in combat power from you Cultivators?"
She was the Sky Blade King, and in her bones, she was inherently a warlike person.
Ye Qingxuan looked at her and couldn't help laughing, secretly lamenting in his heart that this person was still not completely convinced.
If it were anyone else, having the cognition they had guarded for thirty thousand years shattered completely within a single day, they would have long since completely collapsed. For Keisha and Hexi to hold on until now was already extremely rare.
Ye Qingxuan turned his head to look at his companions one by one, weighing things in secret.
He was in the Undergoing Tribulation stage, and a wisp of the power of the Dao could erase all angels;
Looking again at Duyuan, a Buddhist Cultivator in the Late Stage of Void Return, just a single note of Buddhist sound could shatter the weak Divine Soul of these angels; there was simply no way to fight;
Although Bai Yuekui's cultivation was in the Middle Stage of Void Return, her mental psychic power and Saber Intent entirely specialized in attacking the Divine Soul; against angels, she could obliterate their consciousness in an instant;
Finally looking at Lin Lei, he shook his head directly. This reckless fellow, once he released his martial arts will, the entire angel team would Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering on the spot.
He turned his head to look at Little Jiu, who was staring at the roast meat with saliva almost dripping all over the place, and spoke faintly: "Since you want to spar, then let this poor Daoist's little cat cross moves with you and give it a try."
Keisha was full of disbelief, staring at the tiny cat: "Me and it? Daoist Master, this pet of yours looks at most comparable to the standard of a third-generation divine body..."
As soon as Little Jiu heard the opponent looking down on her, her fur stood on end on the spot, and she hissed as she bared her claws, sounding milky-voiced yet arrogant:
"Humph, blond female fatty, how dare you look down on this meow? This meow is the Cult Master of the Sacred Fire Meow Meow Cult! Watch how this meow beats you so hard you look for your teeth all over the floor later!"
All the angels instantly glared angrily at Little Jiu, but apart from Keisha and Hexi, no one else was a match for this little cat.
"Female fatty? Me?" Keisha had lived for tens of thousands of years, and this was the first time some 'person' called her a fatty.
Looking at Little Jiu's gaze directed at Keisha, Hexi almost couldn't hold back her laughter and silently sent a voice transmission to her best friend.
Upon hearing this, Keisha was so angry that her chest rose and fell unsteadily, and she lowered her head to take a look. Mhm, she couldn't see her toes.
'It is indeed a bit fat,' Keisha muttered inwardly. Immediately, she retorted back to Hexi: 'According to this little cat's words, you are also a fatty.'
After saying that, she closed the communication channel, refusing to look at her best friend's fire-spitting gaze.
Ye Qingxuan timely spoke up to remind: "Don't look down on Little Jiu. It is a Holy Spirit with combat power in the Late Stage of Soul Transformation. If you are slightly careless, you will die—truly die, Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering."
"Holy Spirit?"
Although Keisha didn't understand, she also put away her feeling of contempt. She also wanted to personally fight against beings of the Cultivation system and figure out the true gap in strength between the two sides firsthand.
Little Jiu let out a hiss as her fur stood on end, her petite body wrapped in golden light shooting straight into the clouds. Keisha spread her wings and soared into the air, the human and the cat confronting each other across the sky.
Little Jiu immediately stopped holding back. Ten thousand feet of golden light burst open, her body growing to the size of an adult tiger, and the Lady Sanhua Holy Spirit true form was revealed. Geng metal Qi flowed all over her body, and a pair of odd eyes locked firmly onto Keisha.
"Female fatty! Daring to look down on this meow, taste this Cult Master's Meow Meow Fist!"
Before her voice finished, her figure turned into a golden light and lunged toward Keisha.
Her two paws waved wildly, and countless claw shadows swept over Keisha overwhelmingly. The Geng metal Qi tore apart the surrounding airflow, and every strike carried pure and robust power. Her offense had no fixed pattern, being entirely the wild style of a feline pouncing, grabbing, tearing, and scratching—nimble, tricky, and shifting without a trace.
In the eyes of the four people of Ye Qingxuan, the battle between the kitten and the angel was like a slow-motion playback.
But in the eyes of the watching angels, except for Hexi who could see clearly, everyone else simply saw a bunch of garbled code; their computers couldn't keep up with the speed.
Keisha's Sacred Body operated at full power, and the celestial computer within her body ran at full speed, crazily capturing the trajectory of Little Jiu's limb movements. Yet no matter how much her computing power was pulled to the maximum, she could only parse the Physical Body movements.
The Dharma power circulating inside Little Jiu's body could not be deciphered at all. Keisha raised her hand to summon the Silver Wings; that was her arsenal.
The silver blades slashed out one after another, blocking and counterattacking along the route calculated and anticipated by the calculation.
The particle blades collided with the Geng metal claw force, continuously bursting out dazzling sparks, and the scattered sacred particles rapidly reorganized.
Two streams of light, one golden and one white, constantly collided in the air, and deafening explosions of energy collisions kept bursting out high in the sky. Little Jiu's strength was fully unleashed, and the Geng metal Qi was endless, her offensive pressing Keisha down from start to finish.
Keisha's energy consumption became faster and faster. Having fought for a long time and fallen into a disadvantage, she no longer held back. The sacred particles all over her body gathered crazily, and massive amounts of high-energy particles in the firmament converged toward her surroundings, brewing her ultimate move, the Sky Blade Judgment.
Beneath the clouds, the four people of Ye Qingxuan, Duyuan, Bai Yuekui, and Lin Lei quietly watched the battle.
Duyuan gently shook his head, his tone carrying regret: "Vainly possessing an energy reserve close to the Perfection of Void Return, yet only able to barely unleash the combat power of the Late Stage of Soul Transformation, this system is truly poor to the extreme."
Lin Lei opened the Martial Arts Heavenly Eye, watching Keisha's energy flow, and couldn't help shaking his head: "This usage of energy—99% of the energy is completely wasted. It doesn't seem to circulate using the Meridians?"
Bai Yuekui looked for a long time, but still didn't understand why Keisha's energy was incomparably abundant, yet her strength was so weak. She turned her head to look at Ye Qingxuan, her eyes full of confusion.
Ye Qingxuan took the opportunity to explain:
"Comparing the energy within the body to a giant reservoir, we Cultivators circulate power just like opening the floodgates wide, able to mobilize all the water in the reservoir;"
"The divine bodies of these technological gods are equivalent to sticking a straw into the reservoir."
"Keisha and Hexi are considered the top tier, at most equivalent to a faucet; their energy utilization rate is ridiculously low."
The live stream room's bullet comments instantly flooded the screen and exploded, with people from both worlds frantically complaining:
[A reservoir matched with a faucet? No wonder the stamina is so poor after the fight started, unable to unleash full strength!]
[Don't be ungrateful. Keisha and Hexi are faucets at least, while other gods are just straws!]
[Speaking of which, apart from their hair color, this group of angels all look like Eastern Asians. Their facial features are truly stunning, and their short skirts and long legs are dazzling to look at.]
[Pervert upstairs, rein it in! No matter how good-looking they are, they are still enemies. Distinguish the primary from the secondary!]
[They can't really be considered enemies, right? They just took the initiative to yield and even asked the Daoist priest for guidance on their future path.]
[Who would have thought that Lady Sanhua, who is usually so soft, would have such a fierce true form, suppressing and beating the Angel Queen the entire way!]
CCTV Livestream:
Xiao Sa: "Can this little Jiu win? Also, that Angel Queen clearly has a very strong Aura, but this strength? Why does it feel even inferior to the world will of Boss Bai's world back then?"
Master Yuanxin: "Indeed. As a holy spirit, Little Jiu has a solid foundation and possesses the combat power of the Soul Transformation Late Stage. As for that Angel Queen, there are two reasons why she cannot unleash her power: first, the problem with the system itself, and second, her Divine Soul is too weak."
Celestial Master Zhang: "If that angel could Cultivate her Divine Soul, her strength could at least increase by several thousand times, and she could at least unleash ten percent of the strength of the Return to Void Late Stage. Now, her defeat is certain."
Li Qiye was not at the scene, having gone to stew fish soup instead, but the bullet screen kept flooding the screen: "Holy shit, awesome!" "This bird-man system is way too pathetic" "The kitten is killing it like crazy!"
Seeing Li Qiye's screenful of foul language, Master Yuanxin and Celestial Master Zhang both twitched their mouths, secretly thinking: This old Devil Head has completely let go of himself, not caring about his image at all.
Xiao Sa remained silent. Strength increased by several thousand times? Apart from living a long time, this divine body is simply worthless.
National Destiny Space ——
High above in the sky, Keisha's Blade of Angels had finished charging its power. Dazzling particle glare enveloped the entire cloud layer, preparing for an all-out counterattack.
Little Jiu's pair of cat eyes were eager to try, and it let out a long roar toward the sky: "Meow!!"
Completely liberating the power of its entire body, its body shape kept growing larger.
Until it grew to a thousand zhang tall, the observing angels were filled with shock, desperately analyzing it until their computers almost burned out.
Angel Yan: "This kitten is so strong!"
Angel Leng: "The cultivation system is truly terrifying. It clearly only has the energy fluctuations of a third-generation god, yet it's so strong!?"
Hexi's eyes were filled with fanaticism, and the Sky Base computing cluster kept analyzing: "Your master is too strong, this old lady can't analyze it, I refuse to believe I can't analyze you, a little kitten!!"
Seeing Hexi's state, Ye Qingxuan directly waved his hand and sealed her dark plane.
Pipi Xi instantly felt weak all over, turning into a mantis shrimp. Zhixin quickly stepped forward to support her teacher.
"Don't waste resources. You aren't from the same system."
Although Hexi was unconvinced, she did not dare to say anything more.
On the battlefield ——
Geng metal Qi surged wildly all over Little Jiu, and it also unleashed its Divine Ability.
A ten-thousand-zhang dazzling particle light blade descended from the vault of heaven. Keisha's Blade of Angels, driven by all the stored energy in her body, crashed fiercely toward the thousand-zhang-tall Lady Sanhua Holy Spirit.
Little Jiu did not dodge or evade. The endlessly surging Geng metal Qi all over its body gathered completely, blending into one, and condensed into a giant golden sword shadow spanning across the sea of clouds.
Ye Qingxuan looked at the somewhat familiar sword shadow: "The One-Return Sword Style? Yet it seems somewhat different; this kitten has learned it pretty well."
Bai Yuekui turned her head: "Your sword manual? You taught it?!"
Lin Lei and Duyuan also looked over. Ye Qingxuan's sword manual was not something so easy to learn. Could this little kitten that only knew how to yell and eat roast meat actually learn it?
Ye Qingxuan shook his head: "I'll explain to you later. The victor is about to be decided."
It was taught by the cangmang sword spirit, with the reward being letting the sword spirit hug it for a while.
The two forces of gold and white collided fiercely together. A deafening loud noise exploded, and a devastating shock wave spread wildly in all directions.
Ye Qingxuan merely flicked his sleeves casually, and the turbulent and violent energy wave turned into a gentle breeze, causing even the hair of the group of angels below to only sway slightly.
The counter-shock force of the two forces clashing instantly acted upon both of them. Little Jiu and Keisha were simultaneously sent flying backward forcefully.
Keisha tumbled dozens of times in the air and crashed heavily onto the ground. The sacred particles all over her body dimmed by more than half, the deployable energy within her body was completely depleted, and she could no longer muster any combat power;
Little Jiu merely shook its massive body, steadily hovering in mid-air with more than half of its strength remaining.
It strode with its cat paws and rushed in a few steps to where Keisha landed. Mimicking the appearance of ordinary kittens fighting, it raised its right claw and slammed it down heavily one after another, with continuous thumping impact sounds.
However, Keisha's Physical Body was solidly at the Return to Void tier, hard-withstanding all the slaps. The particles on her surface constantly and rapidly reorganized. No matter how much Little Jiu exerted its strength to scratch, claw, and slap, it ultimately failed to tear open the defense of her sacred body.
"Alright, Little Jiu. The victor has been decided, you won, but you can't break through her Physical Body."
Ye Qingxuan spoke up to stop it.
Little Jiu retracted its giant claws with unwillingness. Its massive thousand-zhang body rapidly shrank, turning back into a palm-sized milk cat in the blink of an eye, and with a leap, it dashed onto Ye Qingxuan's shoulder.
While rubbing its small head against his cheek, it hissed and acted spoiled, complaining in a milky voice:
"Meow! It's completely unfair, this female fatty's body is outrageously hard, no matter how this meow scratches, it can't pierce through! No way, this meow is going to learn an even more awesome sword manual from the sword spirit sister!"
Ye Qingxuan tapped the kitten's head in exasperation: "You're a kitten less than a year old, with mere Soul Transformation strength, and you still vainly hope to pierce through the Physical Body of the Return to Void tier? Don't be too greedy."
"However, you've passed. Keep it up, the Immortal Ascension Tribulation won't be difficult for you!"
The kitten instantly beamed with joy, continuously acting cute and spoiled.
Hexi looked at Little Jiu in disbelief: "What the heck? Less than a year old!!?? The tomboy lost to a milk cat less than a year old!!?"
Hexi's exclamation made all the angels look over.
Angel Leng even had an expression of her worldview collapsing: "This kitten? Really less than a year old??"
Zhixin looked at Little Jiu with glowing eyes. So cute!!
Angel Lingxi stepped forward, continuously sizing up Little Jiu. Her hands eagerly wanted to reach out to pet the cat, but thinking of Little Jiu's combat power, she timidly put them back down.
Ye Qingxuan glanced at Lingxi, a cyan-gold light flashing across his eyes: "Such strong Luck! Is this Angel Lingxi?"
"Humph, silver-haired female fatty, this meow is a holy spirit and is already eight months old, not a milk cat!" Little Jiu glanced at Hexi with a disdainful gaze. With that look, the silver-haired one became autistic.
On Demon One ——
Morgana was sending telegrams again: "I'm fucking done for, what the fuck, that bitch Keisha lost!!?? Lost to a ** milk cat?!!"
Ato muttered softly: "Queen, what should we do? Should we run?"
"Run my ass, where can you run to? That Daoist priest is the Incarnation of the Dao, going anywhere in the Universe is just a thought!!"
Morgana was so frightened that her wicked chest kept heaving, then she muttered in a low voice: "Time-Space Rose..."
She had also seen the future scenes released by Ye Qingxuan just now. With Rose on Earth, it was absolutely impossible for her to run.
On the other side ——
Angel Yan immediately flapped her wings and flew forward, quickly helping up the disheveled Keisha.
Keisha leaned on Yan's arm and slowly stood straight. Although there were no fatal injuries on her body, her internal energy was overdrawn, and she would be unable to start a war again for a short time.
She looked at Ye Qingxuan and his group of four. There was no unwillingness in the depths of her eyes; instead, she was exceptionally clear-headed. The battle with Little Jiu just now had allowed her to thoroughly see the huge shortcomings hidden within her own divine body system.
She stepped forward, looked earnestly at Ye Qingxuan, and asked in a deep voice: "What the Daoist priest said just now was about rectifying the source and cleaning up the deformed god-making system of this Universe.
If the cleanup is completed, how should this Universe get back on track? Could it be that you still intend to leave behind a completely new evolution system?"
Looking at her far-sighted and thoughtful appearance, Ye Qingxuan slowly opened his mouth:
"You are quite smart. A flawed and deformed system couldn't completely obscure your wisdom either."
