Chapter 2114: Shock and Fury, Betrayal!
Chapter 2114: Chapter 2114: Shock and Fury, Betrayal!
Three decades have passed in the outside world.
But the cultivators in the Yin Yang Heavenly Pool cannot feel the passage of time, it seems like three decades passed in the blink of an eye.
Some remain in place, trying to cut off the influx of Yin Yang Power within their meridians.
Others have already dived deeper, ready to find a secluded spot to comprehend the Yin Yang Dao.
Such as the one leading the charge, Chu Yan.
Or Ba Tiance from the Banan Divine Kingdom.
And Gu You from Qingcheng Mountain.
As for the worshippers of the Banan Divine Kingdom, the First Elder of the Chu Family, and Qu Lv, the second generation true disciple of Qingcheng Mountain, these veteran experts have come here merely to protect their juniors.
According to them,
absorbing Yin Yang Power holds little value for them, as the paths they tread and the Dao Law they practice have long been solidified.
Cultivating a new Dao means integrating the new Dao into one’s original Dao... But once one cultivates the supreme Dao Law like Yin Yang Power, how could it play a supporting role? It will inevitably conflict with the original Dao within, leading, at best, to the destruction of the original Dao, and at worst, to life-threatening consequences.
It’s simply not worth the risk.
Now, Netherworld King, Hong Ying, and Ning Chenxin can already see the underwater peaks at the bottom.
Between the peaks lie thousands of ravines, where one can hide.
The enormous sea fish transformed from the power of yang are non-aggressive but also cannot be touched lightly.
At the deepest point, the power of yang on these sea fish gathers like a small sun, although it does not leak, even a slight touch will ignite the entire body and soul.
What should they do?
Hong Ying and the others all looked toward Chu Yan, who was three buildings to their east.
Over there, Chu Yan was already taking action.
Chu Yan actually took out the Thunder Department’s True God Seal with one hand, pinched a formula with the other, and shouted, "Command!"
Streaks of lightning nets spread out from the Thunder Department’s True God Seal, heavily enveloping Chu Yan.
Seeing this, Ba Tiance said indifferently, "The Chu Family really went all out. This Thunder Department’s True God Seal was exchanged from the Wanbao Pavilion with three Formless Realm cultivation techniques and a medicinal pill for breaking through to the Star Nebula Realm, and they directly used it here?"
Ba Xiyue frowned, "It seems the Chu Family is betting everything on this Third Young Master Chu."
The worshipper from the Banan Divine Kingdom snorted coldly, "Chu Yan is the Chu Family’s best hope of fully absorbing the Yin Yang Dao. If he succeeds, Chu Yan’s achievements will make him the uncontested head of the Chu Family."
Holding the Thunder Department’s True God Seal, Chu Yan plunged directly into the stomach of a Yangdao Sea Fish.
Only in this way can he resist the extreme burning of the Path of Yang for a limited time.
When Chu Yan went inside,
the First Elder of the Chu Family beckoned and shouted, "Everyone, protect Chu Yan’s Dao!"
After saying this,
the five people of the Chu Family who dove to this depth followed closely alongside the Yangdao Sea Fish.
Among them were three other elders of the Chu Family, and the last one was Chu Ran.
But, as a fellow direct lineage young master of the Chu Family, how could Chu Ran willingly protect someone else’s Dao with his personality?
Chu Ran gritted his teeth and said, "Why should I protect his Dao?"
The First Elder of the Chu Family barked coldly, "Chu Ran, consider the bigger picture! If Chu Yan can comprehend the Yin Yang Path, the Chu Family will dominate the Fuyao Realm for at least ten thousand years... and possibly even have a place in a higher Great Realm!"
Chu Ran still wanted to say something.
The First Elder of the Chu Family ended the discussion decisively, "Do your duty and protect the Dao, that’s the head of the Murong family’s order!"
Chu Ran gritted his teeth, forcibly swallowing the words he was about to say, his eyes burning with jealousy that he had to suppress, and then he huffed coldly and went alone into a mountain ravine.
The other three elders were somewhat helpless when they saw this and said, "First Elder, what is Young Master Chu Ran doing..."
The First Elder shook his head and sighed, "Ignore it for now. Ever since being beaten by that third-generation true disciple of Qingcheng Mountain, his temperament has changed so much."
With that, the First Elder lifted his head and glanced at the side of Qingcheng Mountain.
There, Gu You also sat cross-legged, surrounded by the Nine Palace Xuanji Formation... the Guardian Array of the Heavenly Master Dao of Qingcheng Mountain, protecting him.
Meanwhile, Qu Lv stood like a guardian deity, arms crossed beside him.
"One day... the Chu Family will make Qingcheng Mountain pay the price." The First Elder thought.
A large amount of the Path of Yang began to circulate around the Yangdao Sea Fish.
Chu Yan’s comprehension began.
Ba Tiance also started comprehending the Path of Yang under the protection of the worshippers.
"Shall we start as well?" Ning Chenxin asked.
Netherworld King shook his head, "According to Chu Yan, the comprehension of the condensed Path of Yang can be interrupted or even snatched. Junior Brother Ning, stay with Qingcheng Mountain; I and your senior sister will find a sufficiently hidden spot."
As for the Supervisory Temple... Vice Hall Master Lin naturally had to protect his disciple Yang Shao.
Ning Chenxin nodded, "Then you be careful."
After saying this, he returned to the side of Qingcheng Mountain.
Netherworld King and Hong Ying swam toward the less crowded side, seeking a relatively safe place for comprehension.
Fortunately, not many people had dived to this depth.
All the major forces had already begun their comprehension.
Soon, Netherworld King and Hong Ying found an underwater trench, exchanged glances, and set up Fang Qiong’s formation, Mo Yu’s talismans, and the puppet crafted by Mu Fusheng for protection.
As for what the master provided... the master had said, unless absolutely necessary, never to reveal the trump card he gave.
Sometimes you have to listen.
The comprehension began.
Time flew like a white horse passing a gap; two months passed.
The number of people who dove to this depth increased a bit.
While Netherworld King and Hong Ying were comprehending, they suddenly sensed a surge of energy!
The surrounding Path of Yang began to gather frantically in one direction!
Netherworld King and Hong Ying, always attentive to their surroundings and not entering a fusion state, opened their eyes and looked there.
There... was that Yangdao Sea Fish.
Where Chu Yan was located!
The two barely glanced before retracting their gaze, preparing to continue their comprehension when they suddenly turned their heads back in alarm.
More than twenty auras rushed toward that Yangdao Sea Fish at once!
The First Elder of the Chu Family’s furious roar echoed throughout the White Pond.
"You dare target my Chu Family? Do you not fear the overwhelming wrath of my Chu Family?!"
Among them were Ba Tiance from the Banan Divine Kingdom and those worshippers.
There were also elders from the Liuhuo Sect, another top faction.
And several nameless rogue cultivators, though all had an overwhelming evil aura about them.
They were people from the Holy Sect!
"Holy Sect! I swear, once we return to the Chu Family, we will mercilessly eradicate every one of your Holy Sect’s bases in the Fuyao Realm!"
However,
what shocked and enraged the First Elder of the Chu Family was not the Holy Sect.
It was the figure, enshrouded in flames, that erupted from the mountain ravine.
"Chu Ran! Have you gone mad?! How dare you join other forces to attack your own family?!"
