Chapter 286 The Madness of the Sunflower Sparrow
The fervent smile on Kui Que's face gradually faded.
Ye Yang had just received the complete inheritance of the "Supreme True Spiritual Words", but he did not "awaken" as Kui Que had imagined.
Instead, he remained hostile towards her, his gaze even colder, as if she had wronged him.
"Why?" Kui Que asked, her face pale and filled with incomprehension.
Ye Yang then unleashed a technique similar to a void seal—this must have been something he had just comprehended from the "Supreme True Spiritual Words".
With such talent, he is undoubtedly the Void Saint!
But why is his gaze still so cold, even more murderous than before?
"You deserve to die." Ye Yang's expression was indifferent, but the aura around him became increasingly ethereal and distorted.
He pointed a finger at the immortal treasure shield around Kui Que, and a certain law of the Great Dao that was close to "emptiness" lingered around it, which actually allowed an extremely sharp and piercing force to penetrate into the shield!
At this moment, even the protective treasures crafted by the Star Lord could not completely withstand Ye Yang's attacks!
~
Under the protective shield of the celestial treasure, the magical light around the Sunflower Sparrow automatically lit up to protect itself, completely dissipating the sharp power that Ye Yang had infiltrated into it.
But Kui Que's expression turned terrified: "No! How could you do this?"
"Holy Son—Ye Yang! How could you repay kindness with enmity?! Without my protection and help, how could you have continued to hide your identity in the main world? How could you have climbed to a high position in the Immortal Alliance system so quickly?!"
"Holy Son?" Ye Yang sneered, "Bullshit! I'm not your so-called Holy Son, nor have I fused with that broken bead."
"You dare harm me? Today you will surely die a horrible death!"
"Didn't you believe in the Void Cult? Didn't you want to return to the embrace of the Void? You died in the dungeon world, let's see where you can return to?"
Ye Yang once again activated that Great Dao Law—something he had just comprehended from the so-called "Supreme True Spiritual Words."
In any case, there is no risk of being corrupted and assimilated by the [Void] when studying this inheritance in this instance world, so this knowledge is just a special knowledge of the Way of Time and Space.
Since I can't forget it anyway, I might as well study it, understand it, and make good use of it.
Within the framework of the Void, following its path easily leads to becoming part of it. But in another world where the Void doesn't exist, this is simply a path never before trodden!
As long as Ye Yang doesn't return to the Immortal Alliance Master's world and stays in this instance world, the hidden dangers won't erupt.
If one day he cultivates to the point where he can resist the erosion and assimilation of the [Void] with his own power, perhaps there will be a day when he can return to the main world.
"Go to hell!" Ye Yang roared.
He was still a bit clumsy when he used this Void Dao Law last time, but this time he had a stronger grasp of it, so Ye Yang tried to integrate a Divine Soul Attack Bell into it!
Ye Yang's infiltration power grew stronger with each attack, and even with the protection of a celestial treasure, Kui Que had no choice but to take out a bronze mirror magic weapon as a second line of defense.
"No, this shouldn't be the case—Ye Yang, you must have misunderstood something!" Kui Que's eyes were bloodshot.
She really didn't understand why things had turned out this way.
Logically speaking, Ye Yang, who has not even achieved the Great Dao, should not be able to break through the defense of the treasure that the Star Lord has infused with the power of the Great Dao.
However, the law of void is part of the law of spacetime. As the supreme law and one of the most essential laws, all things move on the stage of "spacetime" and are naturally influenced or even dominated by it.
Even the Star Lord's Great Dao is no exception—as long as the influence of spacetime is strong enough, it can bypass this protection, and Ye Yang has already done so by relying on the Void Dao from the "Supreme True Spirit Holy Words".
If this trend continues, one day the fairy treasure's defenses will be completely broken through and bypassed, and Ye Yang will be able to attack her directly.
"I'm here to assist you as arranged by the Dharma Protector! I'm not your enemy!" Kui Que shouted, but she felt Ye Yang's power penetrating through the Immortal Treasure's defenses growing stronger with each passing moment.
Both being sixth-order earth cultivators, Ye Yang is simply a monster!
Or perhaps he truly deserves to be called the new generation's holy son?
Kui Que knew that if it weren't for the magical treasure bestowed upon her by her father, she would have been killed by Ye Yang at the very beginning of the conflict.
Now, after obtaining the inheritance of the "Supreme True Spirit Holy Words", Ye Yang has actually mastered a method to bypass the protection of the Star Lord's Great Dao Immortal Power.
As a follower of the Void Cult, Kui Que could naturally see that it was a manifestation of some extremely high-level Void Dao, something she had longed for. Even with the Dharma Protector's superb skills, which enabled her to cast spells and chant the "Supreme True Void Spirit Holy Words," she could not comprehend the profound mystery within it.
Looking at the man in front of her who was still attacking her even after receiving the benefits, Kui Que felt extremely wronged.
This utterly cold-blooded man actually repaid kindness with enmity? Heaven knows what he was thinking!
"No—this is completely different from what I expected! Ye Yang—don't keep pushing me." Kui Que felt the power of Ye Yang's attacks growing stronger.
In particular, those bizarre soul attacks have gradually become a threat to her, occasionally plunging her into a strange ocean illusion from which she cannot extricate herself.
If it weren't for the protection of the Star Lord, who interrupted the illusion at the most crucial moment, she might have encountered something even more terrifying.
Kui Que had already sensed a deadly threat, which made it impossible for her to continue to tolerate Ye Yang's "nonsense".
However, all she received in response was Ye Yang's increasingly sharp attacks, one after another.
Kui Que had no choice but to grit her teeth and change the way she activated the magical treasure.
Compared to the orders of the Dharma Protector and the faith of the cult, she clearly felt that her safety was more important at this moment.
After all, she was completely corrupted by the [Void].
As Kui Que switched to a defensive stance, the pale blue fairy ribbon in her hand transformed into a beam of light and shot straight towards Ye Yang.
This ribbon was incredibly swift and agile, like a nimble snake, yet it carried an immense and oppressive force, like a giant python, about to entangle and bind Ye Yang.
However, Ye Yang reacted quickly. As soon as Kui Que made a move, he flashed and disappeared from the spot.
"The Great Teleportation Technique?!" Kui Que's eyes widened.
"It wasn't teleportation." Ye Yang's icy voice suddenly appeared behind her, and the pale blue ribbon instantly returned and slammed behind Kui Que's body, but it didn't touch anything.
"Wait, where is he?" Kui Que looked left and right, using all sorts of investigative methods, but still couldn't find any trace of Ye Yang.
The tracking artifact bestowed upon her by the Dharma Protector confirms that Ye Yang is indeed nearby!
Ye Yang wasn't in a hurry. The surrounding area was now under his blockade, a method similar to a void blockade, which stretched out both time and space, giving them plenty of time to waste!
brush!brush!brush!
A large number of treasures appeared in front of Ye Yang. He then opened his mouth wide and swallowed them. After refining the true meaning in his stomach, it transformed into a torrent of power that flowed into his limbs and bones to replenish his energy.
Using the privilege of being a "Candidate in Charge," Ye Yang can open the gates of the heavens anytime, anywhere, and retrieve or release substances from his own copy world.
The Gate of All Heavens can connect to countless instance worlds, and naturally it can also unfold within those instance worlds—of course, this can also be considered […].
One of the privileges of "being in charge of candidates".
As everything fell silent, cold sweat began to drip down Kui Que's small, round face.
Although Ye Yang stopped attacking, the situation, which resembled a void blockade, remained unbroken.
In other words, the two sides are now locked in a stalemate.
Kui Que knew that the trump card her father had given her could not be used indefinitely, especially since the energy required to support the power of a Star Lord in the dungeon world was naturally enormous.
It was only because Kui Que's father had stored a large amount of immortal power in the magic treasure in advance that the current consumption could be met.
Moreover, even though her father's path belonged to the Immortal Path of the Heavens and could travel freely in most of the Heavens and Worlds, it was not without its price.
In the main world, this Great Dao operates most smoothly without any loss, because it is completely compatible and seamlessly integrated at the level of laws.
In the unknown copy world, although the integration and adjustment at the level of the Great Dao allows for switching of operating modes at the level of law operation, making the Great Dao compatible with different world laws.
However, efficiency inevitably decreases, power weakens, and consumption increases.
"This can't go on—." Kui Que's heart was already ice-cold. At this moment, she didn't even know what she should do after returning to the main world.
Should I go back to my father and beg him to protect me? He loves me so much, surely he'll protect me, right?
But when Kui Que thought about the possibility of being confined at home for countless millennia, she suddenly felt that she might as well be dead.
So, should I just defect? And officially join the Void Order like that?
No, no, no, this mission failed. What good outcome could she possibly have in the future?
Ye Yang—this ungrateful man Ye Yang can't be killed now, what should we do?
"If I let him go back alive, my identity will be exposed. Will I be under house arrest forever? No way—" She regretted it so much, not that she regretted getting involved with the Void Cult, but that she regretted how she could have been so blinded by greed and accepted this mission.
"Ye Yang, listen to me—" she explained again, unwilling to give up, "You've accepted the inheritance of the 'Supreme True Spirit Holy Words,' and there's no going back. Getting angry at me won't help. Now we're both Void Believers, but we're both within the Immortal Alliance. We're in the same boat."
"I'm here to assist you. Think about it, my father is a Star Lord. If you marry me, with my father's help and the power of your Dao lineage, we can join forces and not only hide our true identities within the Immortal Alliance, but also reap even more benefits!"
"I can gain even more benefits from the Void Order! I can connect you with a Dharma Protector who will help us. If you desire greater power, the Order can provide it."
"Please listen to me, okay? Let's talk this over—"
However, no matter how kindly the sunflower sparrow spoke, the void of time and space remained silent.
After a few minutes of silence, the woman suddenly burst into laughter.
"Haha, how could this happen?" Kui Que cried and laughed at the same time, her voice hoarse.
The pale blue ribbon suddenly unleashed an even more awe-inspiring power, shattering the void blockade maintained by Ye Yang.
Of course, this also means that we are one step closer to exhausting the immortal power reserves within that celestial treasure.
boom!
As the air currents burst and surged, the pale blue ribbon carrying the tiny body of the sunflower sparrow soared into the sky.
"Uncle-Master Miaowu! Uncle-Master Miaowu!"
She screamed shrilly, "Ye Yang is a member of the Void Cult! He's trying to kill me!"
With that cry, the sunflower flew away.
In the distance, Ye Yang stood silently, touching his chest, which ached slightly with each breath.
The void blockade he maintained was broken instantly, and he did suffer some backlash—after all, he wasn't yet proficient at this move.
Fortunately, it wasn't a serious injury, and with Ye Yang's strong physique, he recovered completely in just two breaths.
"Pfft, this woman actually wants to turn the tables? There's no such thing as a free lunch!"
Ye Yang sneered and immediately gave chase.
On the way, the Xuanqi Sect token in his hand vibrated. "Ye Yang, what's going on? You attacked Kui Que?"
A familiar voice came from behind; it was none other than the Mysterious Star Lord whom Ye Yang had visited a few years ago.
"Yes, she is a follower of the void. I ran into her on my way to Mount Sumeru and again on my way down. I found it strange, so I confronted her about it. Unexpectedly, she suddenly started chanting a strange Taoist chant, which gave me the illusion that I was being corrupted by the void."
Ye Yang stated truthfully and concisely, "If this weren't not outside the main world, I would have already been corrupted by the void! How could I tolerate her harming me like this? She's a follower of the void, so it's only right that I take action against her!"
There was a two-second silence on Miaowu Xingjun's end.
It's probably because Kui Que and Ye Yang's accounts differed, and he wasn't present at the scene, making it difficult to discern the truth for the time being.
"Senior Miaowu, what exactly is the 'Holy Son'?" Ye Yang asked tentatively, a thought flashing through his mind. "I just told Kui Que to stop chanting that melody, but she wouldn't stop and insisted that I was the so-called 'Holy Son.' I'm clearly not, but she keeps saying I am, and even questioned why I attacked her—"
"The sound of the Dao? The sacred words of the Void Spirit?" Miao Wu asked.
"Yes," Ye Yang said.
Anyway, he can't go back to the main world now, and there are no traces of void erosion on his body, so he can be said to be very upright.
"You can understand those ethereal sacred words?" The tone of the Mysterious Star Lord rose several octaves.
"Yes," Ye Yang replied.
Miao Wu paused for another second, then said coldly, "I will arrive within 10 seconds, and the outcome will be clear then—Ye Yang, you'd better not be the Void Saint."
After saying that, the Xuanqi Sect token lost contact with the other side.
The connection seemed to be one-way; Ye Yang was unable to connect to the other party.
"The Mysterious Star Lord didn't ask about the 'Sacred Pearl'—meaning, Kui Que didn't tell him about it?" After the probing just now, Ye Yang narrowed his eyes.
The best-case scenario is that Kui Que doesn't reveal the matter of the "Holy Pearl".
Because Ye Yang really did pocket the so-called "Holy Pearl," and that thing turned into a snake-patterned pearl.
Ye Yang can share the Serpent Bead in the Devouring World and comprehend it together with other powerful humans.
However, if he were to hand it over to the Immortal Alliance, he would lose the opportunity to continue his comprehension, which was something Ye Yang found difficult to accept.
"The best-case scenario is that Kui Que didn't tell anyone. If she did, then her death would have been in vain. The worst-case scenario is that we'll have to hand over the bead."
Ye Yang sighed inwardly, but he made up his mind that he must kill Kui Que today no matter what!
If Kui Que is captured by Miao Wu Xing Jun, even if it is found that she is indeed a follower of the Void Cult, and even if it is verified that Ye Yang is indeed unrelated to the Void Cult, the information that Ye Yang obtained the "Void Sacred Pearl" will definitely be revealed during interrogation.
No matter how Ye Yang explains that the Serpent Bead is no longer harmful, the Immortal Alliance will certainly not completely believe him and will definitely demand that he provide proof.
The Void Holy Pearl shattered after entering the Devouring World, eventually transforming into the Serpent Pattern Pearl.
Who knows if the Serpent Pearl will shatter again once it returns to the Immortal Alliance world?
Perhaps this time, it will be completely ruined.
Perhaps, once they realize that this is a treasure trove of insights into the laws of space and time, the Immortal Alliance will try to confiscate it.
In short, Ye Yang found all of these results very difficult to accept!
The best way is to kill the Sunflower Sparrow!
Kill her!
"Ten seconds?" Ye Yang grinned.
Miao Wuxingjun is indeed fast; he can traverse such a long distance from the Xuanqi Sect's mountain gate to this place in just 10 seconds.
But 10 seconds is more than enough for Ye Yang now.
