Chapter 126: Nine-Petaled Heavenly Seizure Record! (II)Translator: Storm in a Teacup

On the eleventh day, the burning energy was almost unbearable. This time, Luo Jianqing fell into a dead faint because of the pain. He could feel his Primordial Life being gnawed by the heat, Spiritual Vines cut asunder and bones cracked in pieces.

Blood started to ooze all over his body, from his eyes, his nose, his ears, his mouth…from his every single pore, as if there wouldn’t be a drop of blood left inside him. Luo Jianqing was lying on the ground, lifelessly. These fierce energy was like lava, burning his flesh. The young cultivator was out of consciousness already. He could do nothing but barely endure the suffering.

Luo Jianqing didn’t know that, right now, in Ling Yun Palace of Tai Hua Mountain, his Life Lantern which was carefully preserved on the second row of the shelf was dimming quickly.

Xuan Lingzi had been here staring at the lantern day after night for ten days after Yu Qingzi reported Luo Jianqing’s missing. During these days, there were times that the lantern kindled bright and calm, but this was the first time the flame was constantly shrinking and dimming. Xuan Lingzi was gazing at the lantern without a blink, eyes ablaze.

“Jianqing!”

Wailing out his disciple’s name, Xuan Lingzi was desperate, as if this word costed all of his strength. The next moment, he transformed himself into a beam of light and flew toward the gate of Tai Hua Mountain.

Hao Xingzi stepped in Xuan Lingzi’s way right before he reached the gate, “Brother, Calm down! We’ve already sent people to the Fiend Realm in search of Luo Jianqing. You are not supposed to leave Tai Hua Mountain! The Demon Beasts have been keeping eyes on us for hundreds of years. Now is not the time for you to act on impulse!”

Tears almost welled up in Xuan Lingzi’s bloodshot eyes, “Senior Brother, Jianqing’s Life Lantern is almost extinguished!”

Already knowing what had happened, Hao Xingzi was trembling, feeling pity for the talented disciple of Tai Hua Mountain, but he still insisted, “Brother, if you step out of Tai Hua Mountain, the Demon clan will have a rightful reason to start a war. Think about others, think about those commoners, how could you…”

“They are of no concern to me if he died!”

Without giving time to even let his sentence sink in, Xuan Lingzi generated a golden sword light and knocked Hao Xingzi into the air. The next moment, he was gone like a shooting star, breaking through Tai Hua Mountain’s protection ward and dashing toward the North, leaving Hao Xingzi where he was.

Hao Xingzi was shocked, “Brother!”

In a deep cave located in the Demon Realm.

Someone exclaimed, using his ancient voice, “The Human Clan broke the contract!”

A hoarse voice replied, “I heard that the Fiend Exalt is trying to break through Deity Transformation Period. Since Xuan Lingzi broke the contract, it is our perfect timing to leave here and prevent the Fiend Exalt from breaking through! Heaven bless Demon Clan! This is the Heaven-given will! The demon clan will prosper!”

Someone else asked, “Will we win the war this time? We need a precise plan.”

A luring and attractive voice joined the discussion, “That sweet cute little Qianqiu never let down his guard. We need to make a plan before we take any action. He shouldn’t have the chance to even touch the rim of Deity Transformation Period. Thus, the first thing we need to figure out is why and how he is able to do this. We shall start the war after we destroy him.”

The Elder who spoke first stayed quiet for a while and then said, “Yin Ji, I will leave you to it.”

Yin Ji smiled, “Sure, it’s been a long time since the last time I saw Qianqiu the cutie and little Wu Yin who’s always expressionless.”

One of the Demon Exalts laughed hoarsely, “Yin Ji, you were disfigured by Xuan Lingzi, don’t you remember? Still dreaming for him now?”

Yin Ji’s voice suddenly turned ice cold, “Piss off!”

The laughter echoed for a while, then the Demon Exalt said in a serious tone, “Xuan Lingzi broke through the Deity Transformation Period hundred years ago, and that Mo Qianqiu is indeed an equally powerful cultivator. Yin Ji, don’t let your haughtiness cover your eyes.”

Yin Ji giggled, “Don’t worry, I got this.”

Something hidden in the deep Demon Realm gradually changed. At the same time, in the Fiend Realm which was neighboring the Demon Realm, the Fiend Exalt hadn’t stepped out of the palace for ten days since he operated the Spiritual Blood Maneuver.

Mo Qiu’s face was pale. If Luo Jianqing was here, the young cultivator would be shocked since Mo Qiu had reached the full-late-stage Out of Body Period! How impressive his cultivating speed was! Mo Qiu’s cultivation base boosted for another level within a year. Compared to him, Xuan Lingzi could even be described as a commoner!

Terrifying scarlet Fiend Qi was hovering around Mo Qiu, who was operating Spiritual Power, absorbing energy from the world. His cultivation base was growing constantly. There was no doubt that he could reach Body Fusion Period within a month!

A scarlet fruit lay before him. Wisps of Blood Qi was generated out of the fruit and dashed into his body.

Though his cultivation base was skyrocketing, Mo Qiu’s expression wasn’t at ease. The more Spiritual Power he generated, the paler his cheeks, as if he’s going to faint next moment. Sealing hand signs, Mo Qiu tried his best to tame the roaring power inside him and then…

He heard a series of quick repetitive bell sound!

“Humph…”

Spitting out a mouthful blood, Mo Qiu collapsed on the stone bed and couldn’t even move a little, while the Blood Spiritual Fruit dulled immediately. However, he struggled to open his eyes in anxiety, fingertips slightly trembling.

“Devil-sounded Bell!”

The one and only Devil-sounded Bell in the whole world.

Though the greatest Pill Master was Qing Lan Peak’s Peak Master Yu Qingzi, while the greatest Item Master was Huo Mingzi, the Peak Master of Lie Huo Peak, they only mastered on one aspect of forging. Ranked slightly lower than them on forging skills, Xuan Lingzi mastered the essence of forging pills while being good at forging items as well; on the other hand, every item Mo Qianqiu forged was a masterpiece, and he was also good at forging pills.

The Devil-sounded Bell was an item forged by Fiend Exalt for nothing but fun. He had no idea what he was thinking about that he forged a drop of his Blood Essence on the bell. From then on, the bell was connected to his Spiritual Sense.

That day, he entrusted this bell to Luo Jianqing and promised him:

“If you encountered any life-threatening danger, this bell will ring and I am on my way to save you, unless I’m ten thousand miles away.”

There was no time to waste. Pupils shrinking, Mo Qiu was transformed into a scarlet beam and dashed out of the Fiend Palace. However, once he got to the open field, he stopped, floating on the Fiend Mountain Range abstractedly, couldn’t figure out where to go!

The ringing of Devil Sounded Bell continued, but it never pointed out a precise direction.

“This is impossible! How come the Devil-sounded Bell isn’t indicating its location?!”

Face turning pale, Mo Qiu closed his eyes to feel the bell, but the sound came right beside his ear hither and yon. He tried everything, but the direction still remained a mystery.

Qi Luo followed up and asked him in astonishment, “Exalt… Mo Qiu, what happened?”

Several Fiend Cultivators already saw Mo Qiu from the Fiend Mountain; all gazed at him in confusion.

Nevertheless, Mo Qiu couldn’t pay less attention to them. Frowning, he tried once again listening carefully to the ringing of the bell for a quarter hour. Still, he failed to find out where Luo Jianqing was. Droplets of sweat started to ooze from Mo Qiu’s forehead while he realized the tempo of the ringing was getting faster and faster, as if this was the final moment.

Without a warning, Mo Qiu spat out a mouthful of blood. What happened concurrently was that his cultivation base dropped abruptly to the late-stage Out-of-Body Period.

Eyes opening wide, Qi Luo exclaimed, “Mo Qiu!”

Facing the Manager of Fiend Palace, Mo Qiu commanded, “Go on and figure out what is going on within ten thousand miles of radius with the Fiend Palace as the center, where on earth could shield Spiritual Sense! Let Qin Siyi visit Tai Hua Mountain and ask them what is going on. I want every single cultivator of Fiend Palace to go out and search for abnormality!”
