Chapter 2599 - 2599: Heavenly Flute and the Demon Geospiza
“Evil sword.”
One of the soul swords flew out from Zhang Ruochen’s Sea of Qi.
SWOOSH!
The Sword Qi was powerful and sharp. The light tore through the darkness and blew Bai Qing’er’s finger away from his forehead. He regained his freedom and immediately moved away to distance himself from the witch.
Meanwhile, a deafening tiger roar rang out.
Golden light flashed behind Zhang Ruochen. The Intergold Tiger appeared, the divine power pouring out of his body like seawater, turning into dense threads that surged into Zhang Ruochen’s body before merging with him.
Zhang Ruochen’s power increased drastically. He spat out divine mist and his skin burned with divine fire. The power he released was no weaker than that of a Demigod.
Against a powerful enemy like Bai Qing’er, Zhang Ruochen had to give his all. The Intergold Tiger also lent him its divine power to the best of its ability.
But Bai Qing’er’s injury was more serious than Zhang Ruochen had imagined.
After being injured by the evil sword, her delicate body fell to the ground. Her long hair was messy and her clothes were disheveled. She didn’t even have the strength to stand up.
Bai Qing’er looked at her bloody fingers and said, “What a powerful sword.
What a strange swordsmanship. What power is this?”
Zhang Ruochen said nothing but just stared at her quietly.
He had to see whether she had really suffered such a serious injury or whether
she was pretending to be weak to lure him to attack.
He knew this witch was cunning, so he had to be careful.
The space in the megalithic building was dark, cold, and mysterious. There was an ancient divine Qi and many path’s shackles in the air.
The precepts of heaven and earth here differed from other places. With Zhang Ruochen’s eyesight, he could only see things within 30 meters.
In such a harsh and strange environment, he felt uneasy when he thought of Fei Zhong’s puppet body, which he had lost contact with. He felt that danger was everywhere.
“Ancient Abyssal Blade.” Zhang Ruochen grabbed in the air and shouted.
His hand was empty and the Ancient Abyssal Blade was nowhere to be seen.
“Huh?”
Zhang Ruochen looked surprised. He called out again, “Come out, Ancient
Abyssal Blade.”
There was still no sword in his hand.
Bai Qing’er sat against the wall and coughed gently, like a dying fairy flower. She just stared at Zhang Ruochen quietly with a confused look, not knowing what he was doing.
Zhang Ruochen searched his body carefully, but found nothing. His heart sank.
‘Not good. The sword is missing. When was it lost?’
He thought carefully, not missing any details. Finally, his gaze fell on Bai Qing’er, realizing that this witch was the only person who had come into close contact with him.
Only a person with her cultivation level could steal the Ancient Abyssal Blade without him noticing.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Give me back the sword.”
Bai Qing’er sneered in disdain. She thought Zhang Ruochen was laughable; as a Supreme Saint, he did not even know where he had lost his weapon.
Zhang Ruochen could not perceive the energy of the Ancient Abyssal Blade. So he thought it must be Bai Qing’er who had suppressed it. So he took out the
Ugyen Cudgel and said seriously, “Why did you steal my Ancient Abyssal Blade? Do you think you can use it to make me give in?”
Bai Qing’er was too lazy to explain to him. “You are now my slave. As a master, why should I steal your sword? What’s yours is mine.”
“The three-month deadline has long passed. You have lost the bet, haven’t you?”
Bai Qing’er’s face looked pale as the Light of Origin in her had long faded, and she looked like a weak mortal girl. She smiled sadly and said, “What’s the point of us fighting here? Wuma Jiuxing has become a god. This megalithic building may not stop him. Once he breaks through the entrance, we will all die.”
“Give me back my sword first,” said Zhang Ruochen.
Bai Qing’er had no words, her chest heaving violently. “I’m not interested in your sacred artifact. Why would I take your sword?”
He fell into deep thought and nodded slightly, believing what Bai Qing’er said.
‘Have I lost the Ancient Abyssal Blade just like that?’
He had never encountered such a ridiculous thing and found it hard to accept. “Open the entrance of the megalithic building. I want to go out.”
“Are you seeking death?” Bai Qing’er said coldly.
Zhang Ruochen was worried about the safety of Granny Begonia and Le. “I have my own way to deal with Wuma Jiuxing.”
A light flashed in Bai Qing’er’s almond-shaped eyes, which were more beautiful than the stars. Although she did not know what trump card Zhang Ruochen had, she believed him when she saw how serious he was.
But in her current state, she would still die at the hands of Zhang Ruochen and
the others, if not at the hands of Wuma Jiuxing.
“There are a lot of Divine Marks on the entrance of this megalithic building. With my current weak state, I can’t activate those Divine Marks to open the door,” Bai Qing’er said weakly, as if she was about to breathe her last.
Zhang Ruochen walked to the completely sealed stone wall and carefully observed and studied the Divine Marks.
Other than the Divine Marks, there were also many ancient patterns carved on the stone wall. There were birds and beasts, gods holding battle swords, and dragons on the mountain.
It was complicated and mysterious.
With the strength of Zhang Ruochen’s spiritual power, which was at the 68th order and the Heart of Truth, it would take him a long time to fully analyze it.
It had to be said that Bai Qing’er was indeed talented. She could decipher such a complicated ancient secret pattern in such a short time.
Had Huang Tian accepted her as his daughter and taken her to the Stone clan, Bai Qing’er would have been famous and become the most popular girl in the world. Many Infernal Court cultivators would go crazy for her.
Zhang Ruochen was anxious, but he did not dare to trust Bai Qing’er completely. He was about to ask for help from the Divine Sky-connecting Tree in the Qiankun Realm when he heard the faint sound of a flute in the endless darkness.
The sound of the flute came from afar and quickly.
“Guye Jing didn’t lie to me.”
Zhang Ruochen was pleasantly surprised. He looked in the direction of the sound of the flute.
SWOOSH!
The Saint Qi with the unique fragrance of flowers violently surged from the depths of the darkness.
A beautiful woman who looked exactly like Bai Qing’er flew in the Saint Qi. Countless petals flew around her, and she appeared in front of Zhang Ruochen and Bai Qing’er at an extremely fast speed, as if something was chasing after her.
Bai Qing’er was stunned when she saw the sudden appearance of the woman. Then, she fell into deep thought.
Ji Fanxin looked at Bai Qing’er, who was sitting on the ground and looked exactly like her, and was stunned for a moment.
Ji Fanxin and Bai Qing’er were unrelated at first, but they had changed into each other’s faces. Now that they had met, even Zhang Ruochen, who was standing aside, looked confused, let alone the two of them.
Both Bai Qing’er and Ji Fanxin were both top-notch beauties.
Zhang Ruochen was delighted. “Fairy, what happened? Why are you so anxious?”
A foot-long white jade flute floated above Ji Fanxin’s head.
No one played the jade flute, but sound kept coming out of the flute.
As the sound of the flute sounded, the precepts of heaven and earth gathered and turned into attack power. They flew backward and attacked the empty darkness.
Ji Fanxin looked behind her, fear filling her eyes. “Run! It’s catching up!”
She did not have time to explain to Zhang Ruochen but reached to grab his wrist, and rushed out with him.
Ji Fanxin had the cultivation of the Paramount Realm and thought that Zhang
Ruochen needed her protection.
She flew over 10 miles at once.
The space inside the megalithic building seemed to be infinite.
It was the dream of all the cultivators in the Celestial Court to be able to walk hand in hand with the Fairy of a Hundred Flowers. Unfortunately, Zhang Ruochen did not have time to appreciate her beauty as he was running for his life. Besides, he felt that this was normal, nothing intimate or ambiguous.
If the cultivator of the Celestial Court knew about his thoughts, they would have cursed him for being absurd and shameless, and grieved that the fairy had been tainted.
Zhang Ruochen looked up at the jade flute hanging above Ji Fanxin’s head, feeling a powerful wave of power. Each wave contained divine power, like a towering wave in the divine sea that could destroy continents.
Ji Fanxin saw the doubt in Zhang Ruochen’s heart and was frank with him. “This is an ancient Divine Artifact called the Heavenly Flute. The vessel spirit has acknowledged me as its master. Unfortunately, it is very weak and can only exert a limited amount of power. It can only barely resist the monster that is chasing after it.”
‘Is this the charm of the Lotus of Divine Reflection? The divine artifact voluntarily acknowledged its master?’
Zhang Ruochen was really envious and touched.
Even though they were trapped in this megalithic building, Ji Fanxin still kept her promise and maintained her Bai Qing’er’s appearance. Besides, she had even told him the secret of the divine artifact. This was her biggest trust in him.
“Monster, what monster?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
CREAK!
A strange cry came from behind.
The sound was not loud, but it contained a terrifying demonic nature that could affect cultivator’s minds and emotions.
Hearing the cry from afar, Zhang Ruochen became upset with all kinds of negative emotions rising.
Fortunately, he had refined many star souls, so he had a powerful Saint Soul. Coupled with the mysterious state of mind of all-inclusive and all-embracing, he quickly cleared the distracting thoughts and he started to calm down. “Come with me. My friend is faster.”
Zhang Ruochen grabbed Ji Fanxin’s slender wrist and pulled her up into the air. Their clothes fluttered, and their movements were graceful. They landed on the back of the Intergold Tiger like a celestial couple.
Only then did Zhang Ruochen discover, to his surprise, that a beautiful figure was already sitting on the back of the Intergold Tiger. The person was none other than Bai Qing’er.
He was running for his life earlier and had not noticed the witch.
He did not know when she had come sitting on the back of the Intergold Tiger.
Just like that, the three of them rode and fled rapidly.
Zhang Ruochen was sandwiched between the two girls, smelling their alluring fragrance and body scents. What was strange was that each of them had transformed into the other’s face. It gave Zhang Ruochen an illusory feeling during this dangerous moment.
He struck first and gained the upper hand by mobilizing all the strength in his body and pressed his palm forward, hitting Bai Qing’er’s back.
SWOOSH!
Bai Qing’er’s long hair fluttered in the air. A chaotic Qi appeared on her back, and her body seemed to have turned illusory.
His most powerful hand seemed to have hit a vortex and was pulled by a chaotic qi.
At last, he felt his hand turning weak as it pressed on Bai Qing’er’s back.
His palm seemed to be glued to her back. He pushed forward but felt like a stone sinking into the sea as all his power was sucked into her body. He pulled back his hand, but he could not move an inch.
Bai Qing’er didn’t look back. “It’s the aura of the Demon Geospiza,” she said. “The power it erupts is much stronger than that of the pseudo god, Mo Yunduan. We only have a chance to survive if we work together. Are you sure we want to kill each other now?”
“You’ve been pretending all this time. You’re not seriously injured at all are you?” asked Zhang Ruochen.
He secretly sighed, realizing that he could not afford to be careless when fighting with Bai Qing’er. Otherwise, he would fall into her trap. But he should have thought of it earlier.
If Bai Qing’er was really injured and did not even have the strength to stand up, she would not have maintained the Shapeshifting technique, and would have long returned to her original appearance.
Of course, at this moment, the two girls had lifted their Shapeshifting technique and changed into their own appearances.
“Put away your higher knowledge and fight together.”
Zhang Ruochen sensed the strange sound behind him getting closer and the sound wave of the Heavenly Flute was getting weaker. It would be detrimental to both of them if he and Bai Qing’er continued to fight each other..
