Chapter 1425 – The Change in Catastrophe
The ninth disciple, Qin Yu. This was the ninth disciple of the Peach Garden, Qin Yu!
No, from today onwards, he would no doubt be known as the guardian of the Peach Garden.
And Qin Yu had proven with his actions that he was worthy of replacing the Spring Master. He had really shot to power and was formidable in the context of the entire Vast Brightness World!
Vanquished Nation.
After getting pierced by the Star Pike and being nailed to the ground, Zhou Saint and Lin Saint were both in despair within the giant skeleton.
They knew that after the black-robed True Saint left, there was no chance for them!
But right at this moment, Qin Yu looked extremely relaxed. He maintained his hand position and closed his five fingers. His fingers were slightly white as his veins popped. It was as if he was really holding an invisible item.
Crack –
Crack –
The gate of the Vanquished Nation was still in the open state. Cracks appeared as it shook and the cracks interlaced.
Qin Yu looked up and his pupils contracted, as if staring at something.
The black-robed True Saint had already retreated. However, he felt a strong unease.
It was as if a horrifying existence had followed the black-robed True Saint and came to the Vanquished Nation.
It was here yet it could not be detected by sight or divine sense. It was like a shadow. Yet it could send one to h.e.l.l at any time.
Even with Qin Yu’s current cultivation, the feeling he got was horrifying, as if he could be killed at any moment…it could only be a Ruler!
The people in the Vanquished Nation had startled looks; it was obvious they could sense something from Qin Yu’s behavior and they all s.h.i.+vered.
Rulers did not show themselves. Was this going to change with the calamity? If that was truly the case, there was really going to be a change!
True Saints were the peak in the world but they did not have the ability to direct and control Vast Brightness. A Ruler was going to personally make a move!
They were all going to be chess pieces…at most, they would be a slightly stronger chess piece.
Under the deadly silence, Qin Yu let out a long breath; the horrifying and destructive feeling that he felt had finally disappeared.
This meant that the Ruler who came had chosen to leave.
Perhaps this was because of the restriction on Rulers of not being able to appear or maybe they sensed the aura of the woman from Qin Yu.
But no matter what, it was not because the Ruler feared Qin Yu’s abilities.
This was an awkward situation. But after experiencing the evil-intentioned look of the Ruler, Qin Yu’s heart was tight and he was in no mood to feel awkward.
He had initially thought that with his current cultivation and power, he would be able to look scornfully at everything.
Although the Rulers had yet to appear in the current world, there was no doubt that they had started to move to plan and position. If he wanted to stop being a chess piece, he had to become stronger!
Boom –
Boom –
Boom –
Loud explosions could be heard as the meteorites continued to fall. The giant skeleton had completely fallen and Zhou Saint and Lin Saint’s aura disappeared.
Two powerful True Saints had died!
Even though he was the murderer, Qin Yu still felt the brutality and cruelness of the heavens’ catastrophe.
If he could not become stronger, then although today it was Qin Yu killing others, next time, he would be the one to be killed.
He cleared his mind and calmed himself down. With a wave of his sleeve, the flames extinguished and the Blood Jade Coffin flew out into the giant skeleton on the ground.
Hoo –
Hoo –
A strange and piercing sound emitted from the Blood Jade Coffin. Two very visible illusions formed in the air. It was Zhou Saint and Lin Saint who had been killed!
They looked resentful and were resisting. However, they could not resist the power of the Blood Jade Coffin; they wailed as they became two b.a.l.l.s of light and got absorbed.
Pak –
The Blood Jade Coffin closed and returned to Qin Yu, who caught it and stored it.
Having done all this, he looked around and made sure he did not leave anything before turning and stepping through the door of the Vanquished Nation.
In the moment that Qin Yu disappeared, the Vanquished Nation suddenly shook and a strong repelling force could be felt. ‘Bom’ the gate of Vanquished Nation slammed shut as if it could not wait to get rid of a demon.
Because of the open state that the gate of the Vanquished Nation had been in, although the people in the Peach Garden could not hear the sound, they could see everything that was going on.
They saw how Qin Yu scared away the Vanquished Nation Sovereign and the black-robed True Saint, and used the Star Pike to pierce through the giant skeleton. He then used meteorites to kill it. It made everyone’s emotions stir.
As Lei Xiaoyu saw Qin Yu step through the gate of the Vanquished Nation and return to the Peach Garden, she was extremely excited. She stepped forwards and shouted, “Brother Qin!”
She had previously thought she was really going to die.
Qin Yu nodded towards her before he frowned as he turned to see elder apprentice brother in Thousand Faces’ arms.
Seeing Qin Yu look at him, elder apprentice brother forced a smile, “I am fine.”
Woosh –
Qin Yu took a step and appeared beside him, “Elder apprentice brother, do not resist!”
He was frowning and looked like he was concentrating. Everyone who had looked happy just previously now had a flash of understanding.
Thousand Faces stared at Qin Yu and looked in pain. Under everyone’s gazes, she changed her face.
She was equally pretty, but now deep in her eyes, there was a more intense coldness.
Qin Yu looked at her and frowned even harder but did not say anything.
Seeing his elder apprentice brother nod, Qin Yu stretched out a hand and touched him, “Furnace!”
He ‘saw’ clearly how bad elder apprentice brother’s condition was. He had just gathered his Great Dao but then suffered numerous. .h.i.ts and it was now on the edge of disintegrating.
More accurately, it had already started to disintegrate. If he could not stop it, he would die.
Elder apprentice brother stopped talking and it seemed as if he knew his current condition. But as he looked at Thousand Faces as well as the other people looking worriedly at him, he forced a smile and remained silent.
Everyone in this world would die eventually and no one knew what their future held or what they would go through. Even their master, who was extremely strong, had died. For him to die was a very natural thing.
Qin Yu did not get any response. Furnace’s aura was normal but seemed to be in an extremely dispirited state, like a lying corpse.
It was obvious that ‘Furnace’s Great Dao’ had caused severe damage and it had yet to recover.
Although Qin Yu could understand that it had suffered severe emotional damage after having to ‘give birth’ as a male, elder apprentice brother was in a critical state and could die at any time. He did not have time to allow Furnace to slowly recover.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Yu growled internally, “Furnace! This is my second and last time calling you! Believe me. If not, since you can give birth once, there can be a second time…”
As if its b.u.t.tocks had caught on fire and then its wound was ripped open again, Furnace’s silent energy fluctuated once more and appeared in Qin Yu’s mind. The image was of an extremely angry fire that was trembling all over and gritting its teeth.
Without giving Furnace a chance to vent, Qin Yu spoke coldly, “Since you are alive then hurry and save him. If you can do it, I promise to never let you experience something like that ever again.”
Smacking with a stick before offering a treat. This was probably how it felt and Qin Yu did this perfectly. Furnace was in a daze before it fell silent.
Qin Yu breathed a sigh of relief.
“Remember what you promise…”
A vague message floated in his mind. After Furnace swallowed the Inextinguishable Flame, it had undergone a transformation and was now able to communicate externally.
Buzz –
Furnace’s illusion appeared and it emitted an absorption energy. Seeing Thousand Faces frown, Qin Yu said, “Seventh apprentice sister, don’t worry, elder apprentice brother will be fine.”
She stared silently into Qin Yu’s eyes for a few moments before she released her hands that were holding elder apprentice brother. Elder apprentice brother floated up and entered Furnace’s illusion.
Although she did not say anything, her look made Qin Yu slightly jittery and he could not help but frown…the coldness in Thousand Faces’ eyes was not normal.
He thought about it before he asked internally, “Are you confident?”
Furnace was indifferent, “He won’t die…” It was obvious that Furnace was still angry.
But whether it was angry did not matter, as long as it could save elder apprentice brother. He would deal with Furnace in the future. Now, what was more important was Peachy.
Elder apprentice brother’s situation was critical so Qin Yu had to deal with him first, but this did not mean that Peachy was fine.
Seeing Qin Yu look at her, Peachy’s mouth twitched, “Where did my father die?”
Qin Yu grabbed her hand, “I can answer all your questions, but not here.”
He looked at everyone, “Dear seniors, let me settle Peachy. I will let you all take over here.”
As he said that, he took a step and flew out, bringing Peachy with him.
Woosh –
The air s.h.i.+fted and a pale-looking White Phoenix appeared. He looked at Qin Yu and Peachy leave and smiled, “Everything is fine now.”
Everyone understood what he meant. Although they had already guessed it, they could not help but smile.
Their junior-apprentice brother had returned and killed two True Saints. He showed how strong he was and no one would dare to have wry thoughts about the Peach Garden.
They had survived this catastrophe!
“Since we have survived, we will remember every single thing that happened today!” Second apprentice brother sneered. The Peach Garden had never pretended to be a righteous sect and repay evil with good.
On the contrary, they would hold grudges starting from the Spring Master.
“Second apprentice brother is right. However, we cannot rush it. We need to restore order in the Peach Garden and become stronger.”
As he said this, White Phoenix paused and looked seriously at everyone, “In the past, Master was around and we could enjoy our status as disciples of the Peach Garden freely under his protection. But now that he is gone, although we have junior-apprentice brother, as his seniors we cannot just accept his protection without feeling embarra.s.sed. So it is time that we work harder to break through our current realm and become Saints!”
Second apprentice brother turned and walked away, “I will be isolating in the wine cellar. Unless necessary, no one is to disturb me!”
Woosh –
In a flash, he disappeared.
In Furnace’s illusion, elder apprentice brother opened his eyes and looked in the direction Thousand Battle disappeared in. He said slowly, “After three days, if Thousand Battles still has not come out, go and ask junior-apprentice brother for help.”
“Yes, elder apprentice brother!” Everyone replied as determination filled their eyes which had been conflicted. After surviving today’s catastrophe, the disciples of the Peach Garden had undergone a change. If no accidents occured, they just needed some time and they would be able to increase their power tremendously.
