Chapter 240 An Mysterious War
“The Divine Clan? The Guardian of Gold?”
Although Lyu Liang was confused, facing such a formidable threat, he had no time to ponder!
Just then, the young man raised his right hand, and an ultramarine bronze lock emerged in midair, whose light covered the range of over 3000 meters!
“The Void Lock! It’s troublesome! Boy, from now on, you can’t escape or get anyone into your cave residence!” Hearing what White had said, Lyu Liang could only give up his plan.
The light cover was so ma.s.sive that, not surprisingly, all the people from the Anye Clan were trapped in it.
The young man’s aura was still surging upwards, and when it surpa.s.sed the Middle-stage of Supreme Master, Lyu Liang could not feel it anymore.
“I don’t want to hurt you! I am repeating this one last time! Give him to me!” The young man stared at Nie Qingyun, his formidable aura totally overwhelming Lyu Liang!
“I want an answer!” Lyu Liang struggled hard not to collapse, and gazed at the young man.
“An answer?” The young man was stunned. Then, he shook his head and said with a laugh, “If I tell you that I can’t reveal anything because of the Ancient Oath, will you give him to me?”
Lyu Liang had heard about the Ancient Oath, in the past, with the Creator, and he knew that it was a powerful restriction formation that surpa.s.sed the Law of Heaven.
But could that be a reason for him to give up Nie Qingyun?
“Impossible!” Lyu Liang said briefly, with exceptional determination!
“I’m sorry… Then you have to die with him, because I have no time to wait any longer…” Hearing what Lyu Liang had said, the young man had a sorrowful look on his face, but then, his murderous intent became much stronger!
At the same time, the black-robed man came to his side. He nodded at the young man and turned into an irregular, green sword, which was made of special crystals. With a golden glare, the young man also put on the dazzling golden armor!
Desperate!
That was Lyu Liang’s first impression!
The young man seemed to ignore the Power of Law directly!
At this moment, all the other people stopped fighting, because they could feel the horrific suppression power here! As for the people of the Anye Clan, those below the Peak of Devil Emperor, or those who had reached this level, but was not powerful enough, had all melted into a b.l.o.o.d.y mash!
The rest of the people, though alive, were also not at ease, all having to exert their full strength to protect themselves against the destructive suppression!
“This is his Field Domain! He is also suppressed by the Law of Heaven. Just look at his head! He is totally a lunatic!” Swallowing Spirit said seriously. Following his instructions, Lyu Liang looked up at Xuanli Xieyue’s head immediately, and then, he saw a wisp of golden soul spirit floating out!
What profound hatred could make someone kill his foe, even at the cost of his own life?
At this moment, Zhu Yu came over, so did the robust man from the Tianluo Clan. Both of them stared at the young man, with a stern look.
“I did not expect that I would consume the rest of the power of the Heavenly Alliance Token here!” Zhu Yu sighed slightly, and with a bright flash, his other three doppelgangers disappeared. The next second, he stimulated his horrific aura, which was undoubtedly at the Supreme Master level!
“I’m Tianluo Xian. I was sent here to help you, so you don’t need to be on your guard against me! If you want to save your lives, I’m afraid that we need to cooperate with each other!” The robust man said. Then, he waved his hand, and four 16-meter-tall, six-armed demons emerged! With a crack all over, his aura also rocketed up!
“The Divine Mark!” Lyu Liang’s pupils shrank slightly. While he was surprised to see the cyan mark on Tianluo Xian’s forehead, he began stimulating his own Divine Mark.
“Jiawen, please take care of Qingyun. If all of us should fail, leave him here and escape!” Lyu Liang messaged Liu Jiawen, but the latter shook her head firmly!
“I’m sorry. I have no other choices!” As the young man heaved a sigh, several silver needles emerged and rose into the air, gleaming brightly with a golden light.
At the same time, the sky was covered with clouds, from which rumbles of distant thunder could be heard.
“Thunder Needles! Boy, exert your full strength! Even if you can defend against them with your thunder-nature body and my second brother’s power, other people will die very soon!” Lyu Liang could not agree with White more. He might stay alive, but he could not let his companions die here!
Just then, both sides took action!
Zhu Yu and Tianluo Xian, together with the four demons, rushed forward and stimulated their most formidable moves!
As Zhu Yu raised his hand, a kerchief immediately enveloped the sky. The Eight Diagrams spun rapidly on it, throwing flashes of destructive lightning at the young man, who had also summoned the golden lightning!
Meanwhile, a black umbrella appeared in Tianluo Xian’s hand. He threw it up, and a black cloud floated out of it, which was a shield against the golden lightning.
Holding the Kunwu Sword, Lyu Liang also jumped into the air, and besieged Xuanli Xieyue with the six Spirit Swallowing Bugs!
This mysterious Guardian of Gold and Lyu Liang were not deadly foes, and they were even not enemies. This man had the blood of the Xuanli Clan, and even now, Lyu Liang could feel that!
But Xuanli Xieyue wanted to kill them, so if Lyu Liang did not exert his full strength, he could possibly die, as a result!
At this moment, Anye Shenyang also rushed up with two of his disciples. He did not intend to help Lyu Liang, but if he did not cooperate with the other people, all of them would be killed by the Guardian!
Seeing these formidable adversaries rushing up with their utmost cultivation, the young man remained calm and gave a slight laugh. Then, the girl flew out of his left hand, and he also wielded his sword furiously!
“Try to avoid his sword. That’s an ultimate-grade Eternal Divine Weapon!” White said hastily. Hearing that, Lyu Liang nodded and then continued rushing forward!
Nie Qingyun was under the protection of a defense cover, which was stimulated and supported by Liu Jiawen and Fatty. By this time, except for them and those powerful existences, within the cyan light cover, no one else was alive!
Facing the besiegement, the young man attacked fiercely, even as he defended flexibly. At the same time, his aim was clear. As long as there was a chance, he would hack at the defense cover with a sharp flash of sword light!
Then, the cover started shaking violently, and seemed about to be destroyed by a second hack!
“Boss, the stone egg!” Fatty messaged hastily. Then, Lyu Liang flashed into the defense cover, and put down the stone egg, before he rushed back!
This was what he borrowed from array immortal, who knew how powerful the opponent was, and had agreed immediately.
Under the spell of the stone egg, the second sword light was evidently weakened. Although it still caused the defense cover to vibrate, its impact was much weaker, which made Lyu Liang sigh with relief.
Actually, for the young man, the six people were less of a threat than the six Spirit Swallowing Bugs.
Facing these people, the young man only needed to wield his sword, whose blows could tear one’s Divine Soul. Even though Lyu Liang could use the teleportation skill, he dared not stimulate it at random!
After one and half an hour, there were only three Spirit Swallowing Bugs left. The young man’s attacks became more ferocious, which brought greater pressure to the people!
Suddenly, the young man had a pained look on his face, and the l.u.s.ter of his golden armor also dimmed. Although the armor soon regained its brilliance, a sorrowful laugh sounded. “So this is punishment for the violation of the Law of Heaven! My time is shortened! But even at the cost of my life, I will fight against Heaven! You, go to h.e.l.l!”
After he had said that, a thick golden current surged out of his head. The sword flew out of his hand and turned into a green, dog-like spirit beast, whose woeful eyes seemed to indicate the end of their alliance…
Then, a suffocating suppressive force struck all his opponents onto the ground!
At the same time, endless golden currents cascaded down, and seemed about to overwhelm all of them!
At this critical moment, all the people below revealed their utmost strength!
Although Zhu Yu was also knocked down, the Eight-Diagram kerchief turned into a screen above his head, which protected him from being harmed by the golden currents.
Tianluo Xian’s umbrella had been torn apart, but the four demons roared as they came together. With a black flash, they turned into a ma.s.sive ghost-faced shield, which protected Tianluo Xian above his head.
Lyu Liang directly entered the defense cover and clung to the stone egg, trying to protect the three people behind him. But even so, the weakened golden light still caused a searing pain to his Divine Soul!
The situation was even worse for Anye Shenyang!
With a cry, both his disciples were struck to death by the golden flashes. At the same time, Anye Shenyang himself also spurted blood, and then, a wisp black fog emerged from his head, barely defending against the attack!
“Hold on! This is a life-consuming move! He can’t hold on for more than one hour!” White’s words only made Lyu Liang feel more helpless! One hour? Considering his current situation, half an hour had been troublesome enough for him…
“He is trying to prevent us from burning our Divine Soul, but he himself can still do so. What a headache…” Powerful as he was, Zhu Yu also had a pained and serious look on his face.
Just then, the young man moved again, but he did not target the ones below. Instead, he waved his left hand, and the golden female suddenly shot a golden flash behind him!
With a boom, another figure emerged. He was the cyan-robed person, with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, and eyes that were lit up!
“Ah!” With a roar, he had a giant, long cone in his hand. Regardless of the golden light, which had wounded him heavily, he stabbed at the young man!
At the same time, the tentacled spirit of the Divine Clan showed up from another direction, and without hesitation, he also wielded his cyan cane at the young man!
At this critical moment, the golden female glared, and with a sword in her hand, she rushed directly at the tentacled spirit. Meanwhile, a golden shield appeared behind the young man.
Seeing all of these, Lyu Liang had mixed emotions!
The enemies from the Anye and Tianluo Clan, and the cyan-robed man, who had been a mysterious killer, had all become their allies. While the young man from the Xuanli Clan became their deadly foe…
At this moment, the golden light on the young man’s armor flickered. Teeth chattering, he seemed on the verge of collapse at any time. But still, he stared firmly at Nie Qingyun, and his attacks, which had been stimulated by his unimaginable obsession, became increasingly formidable…
After half an hour, he dominated the entire battle!
Anye Shenyang let out a cry, and the black fog above his head broke into pieces. But before he died, Zhu Yu flashed to his side and touched him, without much strength. Then, Anye Shenyang, whose Devil Soul was almost broken, totally lost consciousness beside Zhu Yu.
The shield above Tianluo Xian’s head also started to crack, which made it harder for him to hold on for half an hour.
Lyu Liang and the other three people seemed to be in a better situation. Although he still felt anguished, he could bear it. At least, he felt that another 30 minutes was tolerable for him, as long as the attack was not that intense.
Except for Anye Shenyang, the cyan-robed man, who was fighting with the young man, had placed himself in the most dangerous situation! He was wounded all over, but even so, his eyes still lit up with determination.
Just as the balance was about to collapse, another two figures emerged. With wavering light all over the place, one of them rushed directly toward the young man!
The other one, like a black fog, reappeared at the cyan-robed man’s side, and wrapped him up immediately!
Then, a deafening thump sounded. Before the people could see what had happened, they suddenly felt relaxed, because the golden light above them had finally stopped pressing down!
The young man was down to his last gasp, and yet had an unreconciled look on his face. A bearded man was holding him in his arms, as he said to a pitch-black monkey, “Move!”
With a furious glare, the monkey turned into a black fog and wrapped the two people in its midst. After a breath of time, they disappeared, and a fuzzy voice sounded, “Boss, brothers, we will meet some other day. Please take care!”
The cyan-robed man had been lying in the black-cloaked man’s arms. Although his Divine Soul was on the verge of breaking, he also had a resigned look on his face.
“Brother! Almost! I almost made it…” Suddenly, the cyan-robed man jumped up, and shouted at the black-cloaked man, with his fiery eyes. But before he could finish his words, he was directly slapped into midair by the black-cloaked man!
But then, the black-cloaked man flashed to cyan-robed man’s side, and held him up, as he said in a low voice, “Go back!” Then, his figure gradually disappeared.
Seeing that, the cyan-robed man let out a wild roar and also left.
The rest of the people descended to the ground, without even having the strength to fly.
Lyu Liang lay down on the ground, greedily inhaling in air, while his brain was teeming with a whole tangle of emotions…
……………………………………
After a moment, in a mysterious valley, a black fog emerged. When it dissipated, the bearded man appeared with the young man.
Then, as the golden female infused into the young man’s body, his armor broke into pieces, and he became Xuanli Xieyue again. Meanwhile, a teardrop flowed down his face.
“Why torture yourself…” With a mixed expression, the bearded man heaved a deep sigh and could only say these words.
“I know, I do not have much time. I should have been replaced by a new Guardian 20,000 years ago, but I suppressed it with a secret method, just for this day! Alas, I still failed…” With sorrow on his face, his eyes also dimmed.
“There must be a way to let you recover in the Sanctuary. Let me take you back now! During this period, don’t stimulate your Spiritual Qi anymore… What are you doing?” The bearded man had been talking calmly, but as Xuanli Xieyue touched his own forehead with a finger, he suddenly roared out in shock and terror, “Are you mad? Why? Why did you destroy your own Divine Soul?”
“I… I know… a new Guardian of Gold has been selected… Help… help me pa.s.s on the mark… Help me… help me tell Master that I’m sorry… for… for not doing it for such a long time…” As Xuanli Xieyue’s aura weakened, there was a hint of relief in his eyes, “When my… Guardian Mark disappears, Qing will also dissipate… I… I have promised that I… I will never fail her…”
“You…” The bearded man let out a deep sigh and tightly embraced the young man, who closed his eyes, and reverted to his original appearance.
At the same time, the golden female emerged and threw herself into the young man’s arms. From her eyes, golden tears streamed down.
After half an hour, the young man’s body shone with a golden light, and as a light spot floated out, it turned into golden wisps. Then, they formed into the figure of a male, who was holding a graceful female tightly.
After that, their figures gradually dissipated along with the wind among the valley.
……………………………………
He used to be her only beloved, and she used to be the only girl he vowed to marry!
She used to protect him from all dangers, and he used to defend her against a demon troop even at the cost of his life!
She used to say, “I’m a bit tired. When your successor appears, can we live a reclusive life?”
He laughed softly and replied, “Why wait? If you want, we can do it now!”
However, the war came ruthlessly. When the fated moment of destruction approached, she defended him and died in his place.
When the war ended, he stared numbly at her delicate body, but he did not cry. After a while, he stretched out his trembling hand and stroked her face, as he murmured, “Now that we can’t live together, we will die together…”
As he waved a golden flash, her body disappeared. At the same time, a golden figure emerged, who resembled her.
She had died, but she was still alive, just like before. When she was summoned out, she gently placed her arms around his shoulders, stroking, consoling…
A drop of tear finally flowed down his face. Meanwhile, an earth-shaking roar of grief sounded, “I will definitely take revenge for such poignancy, as long as I am alive! I will never fail your gentlest love, even at the cost of my life!”
