Undying Life

Chapter 228: Heavenly Slash! Wave Cutter!

In the eyes of the Fish General, Zhongshan and Princess Qianyou's actions elicited a cold smirk. He had seen Zhongshan's cultivation, merely at the Fourth Stage of the Golden Core Realm. And as for Princess Qianyou, at best, she possessed Infant Transformation Stage strength. Did they think they could harm him? Dream on!

On the sea surface, Ah Da and Ah Er were already in a frenzy, but this time, they had no more hidden cards to play. The Royal Extremity Realm; both the Deer King and Wu'an were at the Royal Extremity Realm cultivation. Dragging them down, they couldn't descend. Did they want to bring the battle below?

Princess Qianyou's mana grew weaker and weaker. She collapsed into Zhongshan's arms, only able to move her arms slightly and exert all her remaining mana through her arms.

Zhongshan's mouth was close to Princess Qianyou's ear, one hand embracing her, the other gripping her right hand. His arm swung slowly, his eyes fixed firmly on the sea water in front of the Forbidden God Sphere. Zhongshan was searching for the patterns in the water. He was intensely focused.

Suddenly, Zhongshan's pupils contracted. The hand gripping Princess Qianyou's right hand moved.

"Activate the sword," Zhongshan whispered gently. As he spoke, his lips brushed against Princess Qianyou's earlobe.

Zhongshan didn't notice it because his mind was too absorbed, but Princess Qianyou felt it. The ears were the most sensitive part, and the touch of Zhongshan's moist lips made her nerves tremble involuntarily, her face flushing red. But she still exerted her utmost strength to activate the sword. As for where the sword was directed, Princess Qianyou herself didn't know.

At the moment when Princess Qianyou swung the sword with all her might, Zhongshan suddenly unleashed the Heavenly Demonic Essence, pouring all his mana into the long sword. Only when both of them infused mana simultaneously would the sword strike without deviation.

Heavenly Slash! Wave Cutter!

With the sword as his blade, he slashed towards the sky. When the sword struck, there was no aura spraying out. The huge sword radiance, nearly two hundred meters long, was still a considerable distance from the Forbidden God Sphere, and not even the surrounding seawater was forced aside by the strike.

The Fish General instinctively wanted to laugh. What kind of rubbish sword technique was this?

But in the instant he had the thought of laughter, he suddenly felt an extremely dangerous sensation in his heart.

Because in that moment, Princess Qianyou's long sword was already pointing at him. At the tip of the sword radiance, countless seawaters suddenly fled frantically to both sides, as if fleeing from a plague god. How was this possible? Fleeing?

Incredibly, for a moment, the entire ocean seemed to have turned into an iceberg. Under a tremendous force, a crack extended from one end of the iceberg to the other, as if a huge cloth had been torn open from afar, and the tear rushed towards him at a terrifying speed.

The seawater parted. From where Princess Qianyou's long sword was, the seawater split crazily, as if fleeing from something dreadful. This part of the ocean seemed to have been inexplicably split apart.

The crack tore through the Forbidden God Sphere. The vast force tore through that area, ripping it apart.

"Crack!"

With just a sound, a cloud of blood mist exploded. The Forbidden God Sphere split in half, and the Fish General inside was also split in half, leaving only a terrified blue soul.

The tearing of the seawater didn't stop; it continued all the way to the sea surface, where a huge tearing force surged up, causing endless seawater to rise into the sky.

"Boom!"

The fighting on the sea surface suddenly stopped. Ah Da, Ah Er, the Deer King, and Wu'an all looked incredulously at the huge crack in the sea, the countless seawaters continuously filling the crack.

In an instant, the crack torn open by Princess Qianyou's sword was filled. But the power of that one strike was deeply embedded in everyone's hearts. What state was Princess Qianyou in? What cultivation level did Zhongshan possess? Zhongshan was filled with incredulity. How was such a thing possible?

Princess Qianyou also widened her eyes, looking at her right hand, which was still held in Zhongshan's palm. Did she swing this? How was that possible? What was her current strength? She knew very well. And Zhongshan's infusion of energy into the long sword was also clear. It was unreasonable, it shouldn't have happened!

All sides fell silent, only the Fish General's panicked soul fled upwards.

It was terrifying. Princess Qianyou was too terrifying. In the instant the Fish General rushed out of the sea, Ah Da came to his senses and slapped the soul of the Fish General, extinguishing it. Then, he shot down and appeared beside Zhongshan.

Ah Er did the same, descending rapidly, followed by Wu'an and the Deer King.

Another stalemate.

"Deer King, do you know why the Radiant Arhat is in such a hurry to go back?" Zhongshan shouted.

The Deer King sneered coldly. Why was the Radiant Arhat going back? Of course, the Deer King knew. The Radiant Arhat's purpose was merely to poison and then return to watch the battle.

"What super treasure does the Sacred Land of Pure Bliss have that even the mighty Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva dares to fight with damaged energy? You come out to chase after me, while the Radiant Arhat holds a super treasure. The Narlan Emperor is in danger!" Zhongshan shouted.

Zhongshan was also just talking nonsense. As long as he could scare them, it didn't matter if it was true or not.

"The princess only has ten days left to live. What if you stop us? Moreover, can you stop us? With Ah Da and Ah Er holding you back, I can take the princess away." Zhongshan said immediately.

Sure enough, Ah Da and Ah Er stood in front of Zhongshan immediately. The Deer King suddenly became uncertain.

Zhongshan kept shouting, "The Narlan Emperor won't die, but in case he does, who has the highest prestige in the Great Yu Dynasty? With one call, who will be the new emperor?"

It was Yi Yan, it must be Yi Yan. Even if Yi Yan was dying of illness, the anger in the Deer King's heart had already been ignited.

"Fine, only ten days. Princess, take care of yourself," the Deer King said.

Then, the Deer King, with Wu'an, turned and rushed back to the sea, hastily returning to the Sky Shocking Sea.

With the enemies gone, Zhongshan breathed a sigh of relief.

"Princess, don't worry, with me here, you'll be fine!" Zhongshan immediately reassured Princess Qianyou, who now looked even paler.

Looking at Zhongshan, Princess Qianyou weakly smiled, then looked at Ah Da and Ah Er.

"Ah Da, Ah Er, while I'm unconscious, listen to everything Mr. Zhong says," Princess Qianyou said weakly.

"Yes," the two immediately replied.

Satisfied, Princess Qianyou suddenly fainted.

Seeing the princess faint, Zhongshan's heart tightened. He needed to find a place as soon as possible.

"Ah Da, Ah Er, take us west now, hurry west. Be careful," Zhongshan said.

"Yes," Ah Da and Ah Er replied—

One day later, in a dense forest.

An outer flag formation made outsiders' divine senses pass over it directly.

Inside, Ah Da and Ah Er stood anxiously as Zhongshan held Princess Qianyou.

After running for a day, Zhongshan finally felt safe. He rested here in this miasma-infested forest.

"Mr. Zhong, what should we do? The princess's divine consciousness and soul have all been tainted by the Wicked God Golden Silkworm. In nine days, the princess will die from exhaustion of her soul." Ah Da said anxiously.

Zhongshan took a deep breath and then beckoned, summoning a huge sedan chair in front of everyone.

It was a large sedan chair carried by sixteen people. Zhongshan had prepared it on Tianlang Island to go and pick up Tian Ling'er, but unexpectedly, he used it here.

Gently lifting Princess Qianyou onto the sedan chair, it felt like a small comfortable room inside, with very cozy furnishings.

"You two, don't come in. Keep watch around, don't disturb, and don't use divine senses to probe," Zhongshan instructed the two.

"Yes," they immediately responded.

Then the two exited, but Zhongshan still felt it wasn't safe. He set up a formation outside the sedan chair, isolating divine senses and sound.

Ah Da and Ah Er exchanged a glance but didn't say anything.

Inside the sedan chair, Zhongshan looked at Princess Qianyou, feeling full of sighs. Princess Qianyou was like this because of him. If it weren't for wanting to take him away, she might have already joined Gu Lin and Shui Jing.

Turning his hand, Zhongshan gently took out his World-Purifying Snow Lotus.

It was such a coincidence that there were only three World-Purifying Snow Lotuses in the world, and he actually had one. Zhongshan didn't know one thing though: the Wicked God Golden Silkworm was actually a poison created because of the World-Purifying Snow Lotus. If the Great Strength Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva didn't have the World-Purifying Snow Lotus, he wouldn't have this poison. It was precisely because of this that the Radiant Arhat used this strange poison on Princess Qianyou.

Although Zhongshan didn't fully understand the uses of the World-Purifying Snow Lotus, he knew the basic activation. Placing it above Princess Qianyou's head, he activated it.

"Hum——"

A gentle white light flowed into Princess Qianyou's body.

At this moment, above the white light, it seemed like a dark golden silkworm, writhing frantically.

"Crack——"

The silkworm exploded, turning into a large amount of dark golden energy covering Princess Qianyou again. Zhongshan continued to activate it, and the dark golden energy slowly disappeared bit by bit. However, the speed was too slow. Obviously, it wouldn't be cleaned up completely in a short time—

While Zhongshan was detoxifying, in the Shocking Wave Sea, Emperor Narlan and the Great Strength Heavenly Dragon Bodhisattva were still battling. The Shocking Wave Sea had already dried up, cracks appearing everywhere below, and at this moment, the two were fighting in the sky.

The Deer King and the Radiant Arhat stood together, looking up at the sky.

Just then, the Radiant Arhat suddenly widened his eyes, waved his hand, and released another dark golden breath, within which was the shadow of a silkworm writhing in pain. In an instant, the silkworm dissipated.

The Radiant Arhat took out the "Wicked God Golden Silkworm," and the Deer King became alert.

"What's wrong?" The Deer King immediately asked at the Radiant Arhat's astonishment.

"When the Bodhisattva refined the Wicked God Golden Silkworm, there were originally a pair. If a strong person expels it, the two won't be affected, but if purified with the World-Purifying Snow Lotus, the other one will definitely be affected and dissipate along with it," the Radiant Arhat explained, widening his eyes.

"What do you mean?" The Deer King had a bad premonition.

"Does Princess Qianyou also have a World-Purifying Snow Lotus? She purified one of the Wicked God Golden Silkworms," the Radiant Arhat said.
