Unrivaled Medicine God, page 913
The moment Ye Yuan entered Heavenly Sun Mountain Range, a familiar feeling hit him head-on.
That feeling was as if … he returned to the Immortal Grove World.
Previously, the Thousand Soar Alliance carried out a lockdown on the entire Heavenly Sun Mountain Range. But following their entry, other powerhouses also entered the Heavenly Sun Mountain Range one after another.
Currently, heads could be said to be swarming in Heavenly Sun Mountain Range.
“This array formation is very similar to the Four Symbols Family Clans’ grand array!” Ye Yuan and Dustless communicated.
Dustless nodded and said, “The Four Symbols Divine Beasts forming an array, the power is sufficient to eradicate a major realm powerhouse! Immortal Grove laid down a matchless grand array in the entire Heavenly Sun Mountain Range. Annihilating Empyrean powerhouses is akin to child’s play!”
Ye Yuan said, “With so many powerhouses entering, it’s likely that a single misstep and it will trigger the grand array!”
Dustless smiled and said, “These fools even thought that Immortal Grove would leave behind his Dao teachings for them. They are thinking too much!”
Ye Yuan could not help smiling when he heard that.
The party gradually went deep in. Suddenly, a series of screams came over.
A cluster of fire rose to the sky. More than a dozen powerhouses were instantly burned to ashes.
Ji Kang’s face changed and he cussed angrily, “This bunch of fools activated the Immortal Wind Heavenly Fire Array of the Four Symbols Grand Array! Once the heavenly fire is triggered, it vows to immolate everything! Everybody, quickly run!”
Chapter 1861. Who Is Brother With You? |
The fire spread rapidly and was practically going to immolate the entire space.
For a moment, wails of doom filled the lands.
Under such power, even True God powerhouses were hard-pressed to escape death too.
“Junior Apprentice Sister, follow me. I’ll bring you out.”
Xu Xing flashed a confident smile at Leng Qiuling and was about to hold her hand.
Leng Qiuling’s face changed, and she hurriedly pulled her hand back.
Xu Xing’s hand froze there, his expression seemingly rather embarrassed, and he said with a smile, “Follow me closely. Don’t get lost.”
Finished saying, Xu Xing’s figure moved, speeding toward the depths of the mountain range.
Luckily, Thousand Soar Alliance’s people ran fast and escaped the core region of the grand array very quickly.
But the danger was not far away.
Even if right now was at the border region, a large cluster of flames would also rush out from time to time, reaping the lives of a group of powerhouses.
The strength of those True God powerhouses was formidable, but they were also delayed by those powerful lames.
As for Xu Xing they all, these juniors, could only band together.
But along the way, with Xu Xing leading a group of disciples to blaze a trail, it was very smooth sailing.
But he discovered that a young man followed by Leng Qiuling’s side from start to end, and his brows could not help furrowing.
“Boy, you don’t seem to be a Thousand Soar Mansion’s disciple, right? Get lost, our team doesn’t bring along good-for-nothings!” Xu Xing said unhappily.
In his view, Ye Yuan, this Second Firmament Celestial Deity, saw that their squad was powerful, and sought their protection.
How could he allow this sort of thing?
Leng Qiuling spoke up, “Senior Apprentice Brother Xu, Ye Yuan is my friend.”
Xu Xing’s expression was rather awkward as he said with a smile, “So, it’s Junior Apprentice Sister Leng’s friend, then that’s alright. But let’s get the unpleasant things out of the way first. People who don’t contribute, don’t think about getting any benefits!”
Ye Yuan just smiled and did not speak.
At this time, the Zhuo Han in the squad suddenly opened his mouth and said, “Huhu, not just being friends that simple, right? I heard that City Lord Gu has the intention of matchmaking Junior Apprentice Sister Leng and Ye Yuan! Junior Apprentice Sister Leng, congratulations to you!”
The moment these words came out, everyone’s faces changed.
Those present were all young heroes. The weakest in strength was also peak Fourth Firmament Celestial Deity.
Could a measly Second Firmament Celestial Deity be worthy of Leng Qiuling?
More importantly, there was an additional Xu Xing now!
Xu Xing was also taken aback, his gaze when looking at Ye Yuan had additional thick enmity.
Seeing this scene, Zhuo Han secretly felt great in his heart.
He knew that just this one sentence was enough.
Leng Qiuling’s brows furrowed, her gaze when looking at Zhuo Han was icy-cold.
How could Zhuo Han not feel it? But he already did not care anymore.
Forget that there was Ye Yuan, even if there was no Ye Yuan, it also had nothing to do with him anymore now.
Competing with Xu Xing?
That was looking for death!
Xu Xing did not want to lose his bearing in front of Leng Qiuling and only said indifferently, “Oh? To be able to be viewed favorably by City Lord Gu, looks like this Brother Ye is bound to have areas surpassing others! Later, this Xu would like to spar.”
But one sentence and the smell of gunpowder already became strong.
Ye Yuan gave him a glance and said coolly, “Who is brother with you? Are you worthy?”
Everyone was stunned, not expecting that Ye Yuan was actually so unyielding.
Xu Xing was also taken aback. He thought that Ye Yuan would beat a retreat in the face of difficulties after hearing his words. He did not expect that Ye Yuan actually showed such little regard for his face.
Ye Yuan naturally would not give him face. He did not have any improper thoughts toward Leng Qiuling, but these guys insisted on treating him as an imaginary foe.
The most important thing was that this Xu Xing was a hypocrite who posed as someone of high morals with one look.
Saw that his realm was low and wanted to drive him out of the team.
Actually, if not in order to protect Leng Qiuling, he would not be bothered to travel together with these people.
Yet, this Xu Xing was self-righteous and felt that Ye Yuan was benefiting from association with him.
Xu Xing’s face fell and he said in a cold voice, “Refusing face when given! Since that’s the case, then you have no need to follow our squad anymore too. After all, we don’t know each other.”
Leng Qiuling’s brows furrowed and she said, “Ye Yuan is my Thousand Soar Imperial Capital’s guest. If he isn’t in this team, then I’ll leave too.”
Xu Xing’s face changed, immediately overflowing with jealousy.
He did not expect that Leng Qiuling actually had just little regard for his face, and was actually put in a dilemma for a moment.
“Humph! I’ll give Junior Apprentice Sister Leng face. Today’s matter, this Xu remembered it!” Xu Xing said with a cold snort.
Bang!
Suddenly, a violent fire wave attacked. Everyone turned pale with fright.
“Xu Xing, this wave of fire is too strong. You guys take care of yourselves! Remember, don’t split up!” Ji Kang’s voice came over at this time.
“Got it, Elder Ji!” Xu Xing said in a clear voice.
Finished talking, he turned to everyone again and said, “Everybody, we’ll join hands for this wave of fire, all heed my command! Junior Apprentice Sister Leng, you hide behind me.”
Xu Xing had a righteous appearance that was unflinching in the face of death as if everything was within control.
Leng Qiuling originally did not want to answer, but seeing Ye Yuan wink at her, only then, did she retreat.
“Ahh, ahhh, ahhh …” Another series of screams came over. Some weaker martial artists were still burned to death or seriously injured.
“Ye Yuan, right now is the juncture of life and death, could it be that you plan on hiding at the back like a girl?” When Xu Xing saw that Ye Yuan also shrinked back at the back, he could not resist saying in a cold voice.
But Ye Yuan smiled and said, “You all are powerful, I’m just a rookie. It’s safer to hide at the back.”
The words incurred numerous scornful looks.
These young heroes all felt that this Ye Yuan was simply too shameless.
However, they already had no time to be scornful of Ye Yuan.
“Everyone listens to the command. Use your strongest attacks and meet the fire wave! Release!” Xu Xing gave a fierce cry, his long sword suddenly attacking.
A sword emerging, it was akin to a rainbow cutting across the sky, welcoming that wave of fire.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Multicolored divine essence undulations revolved around inside the mountain range, meeting the blazing fire in unison.
Puu, puu, puu …
Even though these were all distinguished folks among the junior generation, the Immortal Wind Grand Array was seriously too strong. The enormous shock wave knocked their bodies flying backward, fresh blood spewing wildly.
Xu Xing’s entire person appeared somewhat wretched, the clothing on his body was also significantly scorched.
However, the flames only paused slightly for a moment and staged a comeback.
Xu Xing’s face changed and he roared to the back, “Everyone quickly run! These flames are unstoppable!”
As he said, how could he still care about Leng Qiuling, turning tail and running?
Bang!
The flames immediately burned a large area, screams echoed out together.
Quite a number of young heroes did not have time to escape and were directly devoured by the large fire.
Xu Xing and the group of geniuses covered their heads and scurried away. No idea how long they fled either, finally escaping the engulfment of the flames.
But the moment he turned his head back, Xu Xing discovered that Leng Qiuling’s traces were long gone, and his expression could not help changing.
“Zhuo Han, you saw Junior Apprentice Sister Leng?” Xu Xing looked at the extremely wretched Zhuo Han and asked in a solemn voice.
Zhuo Han still had not caught his breath until now. Seeing Xu Xing inquire, he could not help shaking his head and said, “D-Didn’t see! Everyone was all fleeing on their own, how could I care about her?”
Xu Xing’s brows furrowed. Straining his eyes and looking into the distance, he discovered that the road when they came was long already engulfed by the large fire, becoming a sea of fire.
Chapter 1862. Door of Four Symbols |
A young hero said, “Senior Apprentice Brother Xu, just now, in the mayhem, I seem to have seen Junior Apprentice Sister Leng and that Ye Yuan get engulfed by the flames!”
Just now, a large wave of fire pounced over, engulfing many people all at once.
Leng Qiuling dying inside was nothing strange.
“Damn it!”
Seeing that vast expanse of fire sea behind him, Xu Xing was extremely remorseful and angry. He finally managed to take fancy on a woman and she was actually burned to death just like this.
But Zhuo Han had an excited look because he heard that Ye Yuan was dead too.
“Senior Apprentice Brother Xu doesn’t need to be like this. There are plenty of other fishes in the sea. Although that Leng Qiuling was quite good-looking, there are still some who can match up to Senior Apprentice Brother Xu with some difficulty.” Zhuo Han urged him.
Sure enough, the moment Xu Xing heard, his expression became much better and he switched to a regretful expression as he said with a nod, “Be that as it may, with Junior Apprentice Sister Leng dying in the sea of fire, I’m still very upset!”
Zhuo Han smiled and said, “Senior Apprentice Brother Xu is indeed somebody who values sentiments, Zhuo Han admires!”
“Eh, you guys, look! There seem to be people walking inside that sea of fire!”
Suddenly, a young man shouted.
Everyone got a big shock and used doubting gazes to look over.
It was fine if they did not look, but when they saw it, each and every one of them was shocked until their jaws hit the ground.
Amidst the sea of fire, there were indeed two figures vaguely visible, coming over to their side.
“This … How is this possible? Such a terrifying sea of fire, there are actually people who can move inside it.”
“Yeah, I saw it clearly just now, a Fourth Firmament Celestial Deity powerhouse was instantly burned to ashes, how can there possibly be people moving around inside it?”
“Hang on, this seems to be a male and female. They look rather familiar!”
No need him to say, everyone already saw clearly. These two figures were precisely Ye Yuan and Leng Qiuling!
Ye Yuan held Leng Qiuling with one hand, disappearing and reappearing inside the sea of fire as if they would be engulfed at any time.
But those violent flames were seemingly avoiding the two of them. They were very safe from beginning to end.
Zhuo Han’s face almost became green, looking at this scene full of disbelief.
Swoosh!
Ye Yuan leaped, bringing along Leng Qiuling and directly jumping out of the sea of fire.
Naught a scratch!
Everyone did not quite dare to believe their eyes. Inside such a berserk sea of fire, they could actually remain completely unscathed!
Ye Yuan looked at Xu Xing and said with a look of amusement, “This Senior Apprentice Brother Xu, didn’t you say that you wanted to protect Junior Apprentice Sister Leng earlier? Why did you run even faster than a rabbit?”
Xu Xing’s expression choked up. He pledged in all solemnity just now with the appearance of a peerless hero, saying to protect Leng Qiuling.
But when he fled, he completely did not even look at Leng Qiuling and ran faster than everyone else.
“Junior Apprentice Sister Leng, I …”
Xu Xing was just about to explain, but heard Leng Qiuling say indifferently, “Senior Apprentice Brother Xu’s body is priceless, how can you risk your life? Moreover, Senior Apprentice Brother Xu and I are neither kith nor kin, there’s also no need to stay behind to save me.”
Toward Xu Xing, Leng Qiuling looked down on him from the bottom of her heart.
Everyone said that a friend in need is a friend indeed, it was not false at all.
Along the way, Xu Xing was always doing his best to please and woo. But when it really reached the critical moment, he was not reliable at all.
Such a person was not worthy of undertaking any responsibility at all.
Xu Xing they all retreated too suddenly, laying Leng Qiuling bare inside the sea of fire all of a sudden.
Leng Qiuling was caught off-guard and almost lost her life in the sea of fire.
At the eleventh hour, it was still Ye Yuan who stepped forward bravely and brought her out of the sea of fire.
But towards Ye Yuan, Leng Qiuling was also extremely shocked in her heart.
The surroundings were clearly all wildly dancing fire snakes, but they seemed to turn a blind eye to the two of them. She completely did not understand what happened.
All in all, places where the fire snakes arrived at, wails of doom filled the lands. Yet, the two of them could stand aloof without paying attention to others. It was truly incomparably magical.
Hearing Leng Qiuling said so, Xu Xing’s heart seemed to have been pricked.
In so many years, Leng Qiuling was the first woman who moved him. He did not expect that in a blink of an eye, the two people’s relationship actually became like this.
He used venomous eyes to look at Ye Yuan. He attributed this incident to Ye Yuan.
…
Inside a valley ahead, a group of True God powerhouses had long already arrived.
Ye Yuan swept a glance over and discovered that these True God powerhouses were all carrying wounds from head to toe. Their numbers also reduced a little.
Clearly, this Immortal Wind Heavenly Fire Grand Array’s power was extremely strong. Even True God powerhouses found it hard to avoid the outcome of death too.
Currently, in the valley, apart from the Thousand Soar Alliance’s powerhouses, the other itinerant cultivators were all taking a rest on their own too.
In truth, the itinerant powerhouses that came this time were several times of the Thousand Soar Alliance in terms of numbers. Among them also had quite a few True God level powerhouses.
But in this place, no one dared to employ the strength of True God Realm at all. Otherwise, being annihilated was just a matter of an instant.
Someone complained in the crowd, “The Heavenly Sun Mountain Range is so big. We haven’t found the entrance to the abode yet and so many people already died! This place wouldn’t be a hoax, right?”
“Isn’t that so? This Four Symbols Grand Array is too terrifying. It’s simply purgatory on earth! It wouldn’t be that we couldn’t even find the entrance and we’d all be dead, right?
Regardless of whether it was the Thousand Soar Alliance or those itinerant martial artists, the expression on everyone’s face was very ugly.
Clearly, this was also what they were worried about.
The Four Symbols Grand Array that Heavenly Empyrean Immortal Grove laid down was too terrifying, eradicating them was like playing.
But so many people died and they had not even seen the entrance to the abode. So how could they not be depressed?
Rumble!
Right at this time, in the four directions of the valley, four stone doors rose up from the ground, making the earth quake.
“The key to open up the abode lies inside these four stone doors! Inside each stone door contains a drop of Empyrean-level Sour Symbols true blood. When you collect the four symbols true blood, you’ll be able to open this Empyrean’s abode, and obtain this Empyrean’s legacy!”
A voice was akin to rolling thunder, making everyone’s faces wildly ecstatic.
Empyrean-level Four Symbols true blood, that was a massive lucky chance!
