Chapter 852 - 852 14.128 Last Violet Star - (Past) Chaos at the Main Peak
852 14.128 Last Violet Star – (Past) Chaos at the Main Peak
Jin Baihua experienced what it was like to have control over his spirit but not his body after surrendering his body to Devil Fennu. His spirit is still present inside his body, and he can still see with his own eyes, but he no longer has control over it; instead, the person who had been residing in it does.
Devil Fennu is now utilizing his body, and Jin Baihua can only watch as the latter utilizes a speed he is completely unable of employing and even manipulates the night to make himself blend in with the night’s shadows. Jin Baihua observes as his body leaps from one tree to the next at a rate that he is unable to match on his own.
Jin Baihua questioned, “Why do I feel like I’m stronger now that you’re directing my body?”
{What do you think? You humans all had restrictions in your vessels and soul. This restriction prevents you from going beyond the normal measure your vessel can bear. It is like a protective mechanism. I’ve just turned it off while using it. Don’t worry even if you broke I can repair you~}
Jin Baihua sighed and said, “I’m used to pain. Break me all you want as long as you can repair my body as something usable.”
{...}
{Are people of your race that wicked?}
“Like there are good humans, there are bad humans as well. But unlike demons who kill the weak. Most evil humans humiliate the weak. It just so happens that I used to be one of the weak that wasn’t saved by anyone at all,” said Jin Baihua.
{Is that why you aren’t that afraid of death?}
.....
“Isn’t living sometimes more painful than death? Anyway, just do as you wish. I’m going to sleep for a while,” said Jin Baihua.
Jin Baihua a.s.sumed a quiet stance after expressing his desires, allowing Fennu, who was in charge of his body, to proceed as he pleased. He remained within his vessel and silently observed the events. Devil Fennu entered the Lan Zhuayun Sect’s Main Peak covertly and made his way to the courtyard holding the Sect Master’s body.
The courtyard was completely enclosed by a fence, leaving the peak itself empty. The Devil who was imprisoned within had already given up trying to escape because the barrier wouldn’t move no matter how hard he pounded it. Such careless a.s.saults only caused his own body to sustain injuries.
Devil Jidu glared at the barrier that had trapped him entirely as he snarled his tongue.
{Tsk! That immortal who reincarnated! How did he manage to maintain that obnoxious barrier for so long? Why is this barrier still there after I heard he had departed this mountain range? Dammit! No matter what I try, I can’t escape this h.e.l.lish cage. There is also that backlash. Since my soul was hurt, this vessel would last long due to the injuries to my soul.}
Bai Wuan is admonished by this Devil of Avarice as he strikes the prison he was trapped in. He is about to lose control and erupt in rage, but the Imprisonment Array Bai Wuan had left behind prevented him from taking any action.
{That d.a.m.n brat! If I, Jidu, knew about his background I wouldn’t have chosen to overtake this vessel and suffer a backlash. Now even if I die in this vessel this soul can no longer come back to the Devil Kingdom!}
No one would object even if Devil Jidu continued to shout indignantly from this mountain summit. No matter how loud he shouts, the array nearly entirely m.u.f.fles the sound. In the ears of people who were far from this high summit, his shouts sounded like whispers.
Devil Jidu was muttering complaints to himself when he suddenly stopped and turned to face the area where the darkness was the worst. He stared in that way, his crimson eyes sharpening.
{Even if this Lord is imprisoned there is no way I wouldn’t notice a death aura this strong. Show yourself!} said Devil Jidu.
Suddenly footsteps can be heard getting closer to Devil Jidu, the latter started while on guard towards the source of the approaching sounds. As soon as Jin Baihua’s altered vessel appeared before Devil Jidu that he recognized the one in front of him. It is true that Devil Fennu didn’t use his vessel’s original appearance but instead altered it with a face closer to his original face. It’s just that too much Jin Baihua’s young body Devil Fennu’s face turned younger than it’s supposed to be.
Devil Jidu, who was utilizing Sect Master Yun’s body, stared in shock at Devil Fennu.
{Brother Fennu!? It’s really you. You have your own vessel already. I got mine too, though forcefully acquired. It wasn’t really a joke when those lesser devils said that the Bloodline of the Yun is the hardest human being to corrupt. Look at my state I even got imprisoned here} said Devil Jidu.
Devil Fennu responded, {This Prison Array is something not found in this realm. Did you meet an immortal?}
{If I do... Do you think you can still see me here?} retorted Devil Jidu
Devil Fennu while observing the Prison Array said, {But this is an Immortal Grade Array... Is there a human capable of making this?} as he tried to reach out his hands to drag out his brother locked inside?
KLANG! KLANG! KLANG!
Everyone can see the heavy layer of frost that is forming on his arm into ice. Devil Fennu nevertheless managed to sneak his hands into the array despite this. A loud siren was audible as soon as he penetrated the array in the courtyard, but Devil Fennu paid little attention to it in favor of concentrating on disabling the array.
Devil Jidu panicked in this situation. {Brother Fennu! What are you doing? Those humans are coming over now.}
{What can humans even do to me? Hmp!} remarked Devil Fennu.
Devil Jidu spoke, {I’m not joking around the human child who made this array had given a few humans here an amulet in immortal grade that can defend and attack at the same time. You should take your leave!}
KLANG! KLANG! KLANG!
The echoing siren, more like the sounds of warning bells, continued to ring until the whole main peak was surrounded by cultivators of an elder cla.s.s who were from the Great Sects. The reason why there aren’t many elders who left with Bai Wuan and the rest in their expedition to eliminate the Xie Clan is to prevent the devil from escaping. One would place more emphasis on the demon race when contrasting a human tyrant clan with that race. This is so because the Human Race is at war with the Devil Race.
“The warning bell connected to the Main Peak had rung! Don’t let the devil escape!”
“Th-There is someone else here! He is trying to help the devil to escape!”
“He wasn’t caught in it or something? Are you sure?”
“Of course! The Array had no effects on humans only against the devil. Look at his hands, he is obviously being restrained by the Devil!”
“That means... H-He is also a Devil!?”
“Push him in the array! He wouldn’t be able to do anything inside!”
“Everyone! Work together to push him inside!!!”
Every cultivator worked together despite the various colorful robes on them. They were obviously not people from the sake sect but the sect preventing the devils from escaping the human race had worked together as one just to capture the devils before them.
Devil Fennu looked at that scene with disdainful eyes. To him, these humans weren’t that different from an insect he could crush easily under his foot.
{For mortals you thought of big things but... dreaming while awake is too absurd!}
Devil Fennu can only use the power of a Soul Transformation Cultivator, even when utilizing the body of his vessel. Because a human body could only withstand cultivation to this level. But if he is prepared to abandon his vessel, he ought to be able to tap into the power of transcendence, an immortal in terms of people.
Every human cultivator could not handle the aura alone, especially with Devil Fennu’s might as a Soul Transformation Stage. Sect Master Yun was keeping an eye on everything going on within his younger brother’s body in his spirit form. The group that was going to besiege the demons were being led by the Great Elder while he plans to sneak into a location in which he could ambush the demon with the amulet Bai Wuan had given to him before.
Devil Fennu just raised his palm, and a swarm of death qi-made into the shape of daggers erupted all around him. Each blade carried the power of a Golden core cultivator, which was more than enough to eliminate the bothersome human bugs that were buzzing around him.
{Die, you ants!}
The Great Elder of Lan Zhuayun Sect yelled as he sensed the attack’s suffocating atmosphere.
“Gather around me!” shouts Yun Xiayu as he pulls out the amulet Bai Wuan had given him and uses it to encompa.s.s everyone in the main peak in a barrier that is created by the amulet he has poured his qi into.
Due to the fact that it was enclosing every person on the summit, the lotus-shaped amulet had grown big. Fortunately, the barrier around them was thick enough to protect everyone. The lotus-shaped barrier completely stopped the black daggers with death qi, as if a stone had hit the wall. Devil Fennu attacked, but he didn’t hurt anyone.
As was to be expected, not even Devil Fennu believed that humans had such a thing. Enough to startle both Devil Jidu and Devil Fennu.
{What on earth is that?!} Devil Jidu yelled.
Stunned speechless, Devil Fennu mumbled, {A True Immortal grade Artifact. How can this thing exist in the Land of Mortals!? This is impossible! Had immortals descended already!?}
Jin Baihua’s voice echoes in the head of Devil Fennu, “Watch out!”
Devil Fennu instantly backed away and removed his frozen hands from the prison array that enclosed Devil Jidu in the courtyard. Devil Fennu successfully sidestepped a covert a.s.sault from a human soul appearing as Sect Master Yun. The attack’s aftereffects were sufficient to harm the demon. The explosion caused his frozen hand to shatter. If he hadn’t avoided it on time, he would have suffered more fatal injuries than losing one hand.
{Agh! This time it’s a True Immortal Grade offensive Artifact! What the h.e.l.l are these humans!? How can they have such artifacts which are even rare in the Upper Realm!?} shouted Devil Fennu.
Due to Bai Wuan’s blood essence as G.o.d, Sect Master Yun remained unhurt by the attack’s aftershocks.
Sect Master Yun questioned incredulously, “How could he have evaded that? I did it without him looking at me behind his back! He shouldn’t be able to see it!?”
When Devil Fennu first saw Sect Master Yun’s spirit form, he was a little alarmed. {A soul of a human? Impossible! Why are you so vulnerable when you possess such a great deal of divinity?} Devil Fennu said. {Hm? That divinity is not originally yours. Either way, you should die for trying to attack this lord!}
Yun Huye believed his death was nearing after sensing an overwhelming pressure going toward his soul. However, just as he was about to leave this world, his oldest son appeared in front of him with a brilliant red shield in the shape of snowflakes. The barrier around the father and son was completely unbreakable by the Devil in front of them.
“Huaxia, what are you doing here? I told you to stick close to Xiao Yin!” Sect Master Yun bellows.
Yun Huaxia stated, “Father, it was Yin’er who urged me to come here.” As Bai Qiyin emerged behind Sect Master Yun after his name was mentioned.
“Father Yun, we can help. At the very least, the artifacts that Brother left for Lili and I should be useful,” explained Bai Qiyin.
The red snowflake pendant was floating in front of the trio when Sect Master Yun noticed it. The devil’s attempts were utterly thwarted, appearing to be nonexistent. This is the exact identical relic that Bai Qiyin owned and gave to Yun Huaxia, his lover. A snowflake with eight branches that can fend off eight blows from a True Immortal.??e?w?????ℯ?. c?m
Devil Fennu was already furious when he realized that all of his attacks against the ants, which he despises, were ineffective. He couldn’t understand why these puny little humans had objects that belonged in the Upper Realm, the realm inhabited by G.o.ds and G.o.ddesses. Devil Jidu feels that the Devil Race’s future is not promising when he sees the possibility that his sibling may also be apprehended.
{Brother Fennu! Leave! The Artifacts in this brat aren’t dispensable like the old things had used on you! It’s a real Immortal Grade Artifact that can be used multiple times!} Devil Jidu warned, seeing that their predicament had gotten worse. He was imploring his brother to go since they couldn’t both be captured and slaughtered here.
“Not permitted to flee,” stated a voice that sounded something like Yun Huaxia and had that recognizable uncaring tone.
But as they feared it was already too late. As soon as Bai Wuan heard the siren that rang and could be heard across the whole Western Lands, he immediately teleported back to the sect with his lover.
Bai Wuan asked, “Where are you going?~” with a mischievous smile at the corner of his red lips. “Since you are already here... play with me for a while~~”
