1317: Chapter 388: Little Tai: Happy New Year!
Inscription!
That black cloud is the power of Inscription!
Su He was all too familiar with this power, as it was the very force that possessed Empress Ji Feixue all those 730,000 years ago, leading to a multitude of ancient events.
Su He pocketed the Tiger Bone and leaped towards Empress Ji Feixue.
The Dao Lord had already made his move.
His banner struck forth toward the Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor, yet it was thwarted by the Mountain and River Ding hanging in mid-air.
The Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor had not just stolen the National Fortune Divine God Dragon but also seized the Mountain and River Ding!
Su He charged headlong only to be stopped dead by an invisible membrane.
Below the Mountain and River Ding, Empress Ji Feixue’s visage was frosty as her Fairy Sword hummed and trembled in her hand.
This person, he just said…
that he wished to borrow her unborn child for a purpose?
Empress Ji Feixue’s demeanour calmed, a cold smile tugging at the corners of her lips, as she gazed at the black cloud within the Mountain and River Ding, an immense killing intent pouring forth.
So the Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor’s goal was her unborn child, and he sought to use the power of Inscription to taint her bloodline?
Courting death!
A single statement had touched upon her numerous bottom lines.
“Come!” Empress Ji Feixue called out to the heavens.
A figure flashed by her side, and Black-clothed Empress Ji Feixue appeared beside her.
The barrier may block everything, but not the connection between the different avatars of Empress Ji Feixue.
The black-clad figure, full of murderous aura, glanced at the Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor, then took a step and merged into Empress Ji Feixue’s body.
She must annihilate this fiend!
The Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor, by resorting to methods that expended his Origin, sabotaged everything about the Mountain and River Ding, trapping her within so that not even the Dao Lord could break through for a moment.
This was all carefully calculated, targeted purely at her.
She had to confront her enemy in full readiness.
Empress Ji Feixue, even when singlehandedly fighting the Second Ancestor of the Sealed Emperor, did not call upon her black-clad avatar.
Empress Ji Feixue’s aura surged powerfully as the Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor above shook his head and said, “Too late!
Today, I merely wish to make use of the fairy’s unborn child.
Not having any desire to fight the fairy, what can she do to me?”
The Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor laughed, drawing a barrier with his pointed finger that blocked the sky-high Sword Qi unleashed by Empress Ji Feixue.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he formed a spear out of the black clouds within the Mountain and River Ding and hurled it down.
The spear’s descent was like a howling beast that shattered heaven and earth!
Empress Ji Feixue’s eyes narrowed as her Fairy Sword, carrying an unmatched power, slashed upwards, colliding with the spear.
The spear exploded with a thunderous roar, turning into billowing smoke that surged downward.
Empress Ji Feixue’s expression subtly changed.
Irreversible!
The method with which the Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor launched the spear heralded an irreversible effect.
Once cast, there’s no turning back, not even within his control.
The spear dispersed into a thick fog, yet its assault was relentless.
This meant that the Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor was certain that once the black fog was released, it would certainly achieve its goal!
Empress Ji Feixue’s gaze landed on the black fog, her expression growing darker still.
Different from the power of Inscription 730,000 years ago, this force had spirit!
The former was like an ownerless entity that was left unchecked.
But the current power was like it had a master!
Inscription had not died!
The Western Thunder King had claimed that Inscription was slain by the Azure Dragon Emperor, yet now it has reappeared.
A power with or without a master – the natures of the two are entirely different!
Empress Ji Feixue stamped her palm in front of her, and the shadow of the Dui Gua emerged from her, spinning a veil of water around to protect her within.
Empress Ji Feixue paid no mind to the Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor, nor to Inscription.
Even if she couldn’t beat them, she could protect herself.
But her unborn child was not yet fully formed and couldn’t endure such force, not even a shred of it!
Empress Ji Feixue raised her protective wards higher; guarding herself, and more importantly, her child.
The Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor above seized the opportunity to rain down consecutive attacks.
Outside, the Dao Lord’s expression was dark as he commanded, “Break this contraption!”
That black fog…
is the Ancestor of Yuan Sovereign!
This was the state of being dead yet striving for life, similar to the Old Qilin tens of thousands of years ago.
He desired to resurrect himself through the pure life energy of Empress Ji Feixue’s unborn child.
If he entered her body and used even the slightest bit of that pure life energy, it might be too late even if Empress Ji Feixue terminated the pregnancy!
Su He soared, his Mountain Divine God Seal and the Star Fight Return striking one after another at the Mountain and River Ding to no avail.
The Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor had completely destroyed the Mountain and River Ding.
After this battle, the ding would inevitably break apart, but until that moment, the Mountain and River Ding was unbreakable!
Su He’s face sunk like the deep abyss.
The Mountain and Sea Mystery Realm called for Thai Zu, but Thai Zu’s figure was nowhere to be seen.
The Dao Lord’s Taiji Diagram revolved and struck the Mountain and River Ding, which emitted a buzzing sound, revealing the phantom image of a ring upon it.
A single glance was enough to feel that the ring and the Yuan Finger were a perfect match.
Yuan had cast his power over here.
The Mountain and River Ding does not falter!
With the Mountain and River Ding’s protection overhead, Empress Ji Feixue’s Fairy Sword sung aloud, the red and black on her robes shimmering with radiance, signaling a display of power pushed to its limits.
For a moment, even the Sealed Emperor Great Ancestor couldn’t advance his attack.
But such an explosive release was unsustainable in the long run.
Su He remained silent, pulling a Pangolin from his back, ready to detonate it and burst open the Mountain and River Ding.
Yet he saw the Dao Lord slightly shake his head.
No use, not even the Taiji Diagram could breach the Mountain and River Ding in that moment, let alone a Pangolin.
Thinking of breaking the Mountain and River Ding now is futile; instead, one must consider how to seize control of it.
Only with the proper authority could the restrictions be unlocked.
Su He realized this as well, and his form changed into that of the White Tiger Body, trying to leverage the authority of the White Tiger.
A roar thundered, but the Mountain and River Ding remained unresponsive.
It wasn’t a relic left by the Heavenly Court.
Regardless of whether it was the identity of the White Tiger, Son-in-law, or the Cloud Cavalry Lieutenant, none were of use.
Su He reverted to human form, launching attacks one after another at the Mountain and River Ding.
His breath grew heavier, his mind racing.
He should have left a Domain Avatar alongside Empress Ji Feixue; that way, even if trapped, he could shatter the Domain Avatar in an instant and pull Empress Ji Feixue into The Netherworld.
One learns from mistakes; he would do so in the future.
But it was pointless now.
One needed authority to unlock the Mountain and River Ding.
How to wrest such power…
To slay Emperor Luan?
A ruthless glint flashed in Su He’s eyes, yet a voice reached his ears, “Does my friend wish to kill me?”
