Chapter 1755: Black Vortex

Little Red Bird had been looking for inspiration to breach the defensive barrier through the records of cultivation methods and the Record of Everything in Spirit Sky Palace, so she threw herself into the pile of jade records and books.

When she jumped out of the void, her claws hooked something, but she didn’t even notice it.

Xi Yue saw something white flashing on Little Red Bird’s claws. When she was about to take a closer look, she was stunned by Little Red Bird’s words, “Can you really breach this barrier?”

Little Red Bird chuckled and said, “Of course, if you don’t believe me, come with me.”

As she spoke, her red wings flapped as she flew toward the barrier. Xi Yue quickly followed.

Neither of them noticed, but the Little Red Bird had just brought out a scroll painting, which was quietly falling into the corner under the pavilion. It was hidden under the rocks without anyone noticing.

Arriving in front of the barrier, Xi Yue reached out and touched it lightly. Soon, complex golden runes appeared in the air.

Little Red Bird raised her head and said with an arrogant expression, “Hey, just stay at the side and watch me. Isn’t it just a barrier? This divine bird will quickly turn it into nothing.”

As she spoke, Little Red Bird circled in the air.

As it flew in circles, red strands of energy soon spread out from its wings, slowly wrapping around the complex runes of the barrier.

As the red strand of energy squirmed, it seemed as if the barrier was being deconstructed bit by bit.

The trick did seem quite advanced. Xi Yue secretly exclaimed.

However, an hour had passed.

Little Red Bird fell to the ground with a thud, panting from exhaustion.

Xi Yue raised her eyebrow and looked at the exhausted divine bird on the ground, then she looked at the barrier with a small nail-sized hole dug out by the red energy strand. She sighed, “Little Red Bird, is this what you have claimed?”

“Shut up—!” Little Red Bird gasped in frustration and said angrily, “I have only woken up recently, and my power is weak. Otherwise, this barrier is nothing.”

Xi Yue was just about to poke fun at this “divine bird” when suddenly, she sensed something approaching—a familiar, chilling presence.

She turned around and sure enough, she saw Ji Mingyu slowly walking toward her. He wore a cold and indifferent expression, and his eyes seemed to be filled with frost.

Even though they were hundreds of meters apart, Xi Yue could clearly hear the man’s voice filled with anger, “You think you can run? Xi’er, I’ve told you, you belong to me! Do you think you can escape?”

Xi Yue pouted in a sour expression. She wasn’t sure if she had let it slip in her sleep. Ji Mingyu had been calling her Xi’er since she advanced that day.

Using a voice similar to Nangong Yu’s and calling her the same affectionate name always made her heart flutter, confusing her reality.

Xi Yue sighed. It seemed that Little Red Bird’s so-called method to breach the barrier was still unreliable. Her odds would be better through trying other methods.

Just as she was thinking about it, Xi Yue suddenly saw Ji Mingyu’s expression change drastically.

Right after that, she felt a huge pulling force coming from behind her.

Xi Yue suddenly turned around, and what caught her eye was a black vortex slowly spreading from the small hole Little Red Bird punctured. Like a black hole in the universe, it swallowed everything around it.

“Xi’er—!” Ji Mingyu’s figure rushed toward her like lightning.

Xi Yue didn’t know what was wrong with her. However, she instinctively reached out her hand to touch Ji Mingyu’s hand that was reaching out to her.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.
