1427 Chapter 1421: CKC, Evercrown (25)

Dreamy. Tranquil. Stirring. Utterly captivating.

Yao Houyi pulled away the blindfold, only enough to expose his left eye; for the briefest of moments, the entire realm grew faint, indistinct, almost transparent. All within, both living and nonliving, experienced this shift. There was no exception.

That left eye was cloudy, misty, and shining as if it contained primal chaos from the beginning of creation, the primer that allowed it all to unfold until what it was today.

Origin! Origin Essence! ORIGIN ENERGY!!

Yao Huoyi's left eye contained the same force that the Divine King Han Xei had scoured words to acquire, the same type of power that Wu Yu had cultivated to establish his Blood Origin Method, the core component to convert the Mortal into Origin, and the purity within his irises and pupils that melded into a singular whole, shining and cloudy, was unprecedented!

If it was said that Yao Huoyi's eyes possessed the foundation to birth an entire world, there would be no lies within! In fact, there was already a world within! An entire world! An Internal World!

Blazing flames and toxic miasmic light clashed in the background. They fought against each other with heart-palpitating ferocity, each possessing a deadly edge, and indescribable ruthlessness. Shui Fengbao was having difficulty as this Evil Sentinel was manic, ferocious, and relentless. They began without holding back and launched repeated attacks.

Shui Fengbao inwardly cursed as he conjured waves upon waves of flames that fought back against the toxic blasts, dividing a portion of his strength to shield Yao Huoyi from all shockwaves and rampant fluctuations. Despite the chaos unfolding, Yao Huoyi's current space was strangely unaffected by it all. Not even the searing heat from the flames touched his skin. The degree of impeccable control of Shui Fengbao's fiery strength displayed his exceptional capabilities with all things fire.

Yao Huoyi held up his bow. The bow was forged from a strange gold-wood mixture of material, glistening beautifully in the fiery light. The bowstring was crystalline, emanating a faint grayish light as if forged from the sinew of a Void Wyrm. In actuality, it was! Its lower and upper limbs were emblazoned with etchings of arrows—three!

With an indescribable air of unbroken serenity, Yao Haoyi touched the string of his bow and slightly pulled back. One of the arrows etched on the bow flared with misty radiance, bearing a strong resemblance to the shine within Yao Huoyi's left eye. Nestled on the string, properly nocked, a glistening, crystalline arrow appeared.

The bow was pulled a full 70% of the way back. And then—

—RELEASE!!

Shortly before this happened, San Yongli had saved Xiao Yanyue from her World Prison, discovering that her physical energies had been mostly drained dry. She was the target of a patient feasting. She still possessed life, which caused San Yongli to breathe a sigh of relief.

However, after sensing that her core foundation had suffered severe damage, the likes of which could only be inflicted by a sinister, gluttonous Evil Method, she learned that Xiao Yanyue's Astral Soul was on the verge of exiting out of the 1st Level of the Origin State and her Primal Yin was on the edge of being thoroughly drained. The fact that she had reached the 4th Level prior was a sign of how greedy, thorough, and vicious the charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel had been.

An indescribable rage built within her heart, pulsating with intense hatred and killing intent. For the first time, she felt a pang of guilt. She had ruined many great figures' future opportunities in her lifetime, seizing fortunes from all over, yet Xiao Yanyue was a good, kind soul who had risked her life to save her despite only knowing each other for such a short period.

While all of this was strongly in her considerations and expectations, she hadn't expected that a future Mystic Overlord with the means to fight far beyond her level would experience such a tragedy. Moreover, it was because of her. Her reluctance to bring forth her trump cards.

How could she not feel guilty? How could she not feel angry? At herself? AT THE EVIL SENTINEL!!

Fury unbidden by all surged within her eyes. The beauty of those crimson eyes that could lure the soul in their treasured light slowly descended into a hellish scarlet, sufficient enough to shred the soul at a mere glance. Her pupils reflected the image of the charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel. The vile, sinister man was ever-cautious, his Mystic Aura unfurled to its maximal extent, and his guarded gaze was exposed.

Within that guarded gaze was a reluctance and internal struggle as he looked at Xiao Yanyue, and a subconscious licking of his lips as he recalled that delicious meal, saddened that he might have to abandon it out of uncertainty. The entire situation felt increasingly fishy and unclear.

For example, the white-haired mortal woman was trying to trade a drop of a Heavenly Saint's essence blood. To a Martial Cultivator like him, especially an Evil Cultivator as well, this was a treasure that couldn't be easily refused. The value could instigate war against Earthly Saints, perhaps even Worldly Saints.

After all, it wasn't just an ordinary drop of blood, but the essence blood of a Heavenly Saint! It contained their refined Physical Power and traces of their profound comprehension of the Mystic Dao. There was a reason why Heavenly Saints' Mystic Runes were fundamentally different from Earthly Saints and Worldly Saints!

San Yongli gently placed Xiao Yanyue into Wen Mingna's arms. She pleaded softly, "Please take care of her." Those words contained a wisp of guilt, rage, frigid chill, and hopefulness.

Wen Mingna gazed at San Yongli for a brief moment, seeing the brilliance of a golden halo above her head. It was pulsing so intensely that her Fate Soul intensely quivered.

At the same time, Wei Wuyin's silver eyes looked into the sky. "Karmic Surge?" An expenditure of 1,000 Karmic Luck Value or more was occurring! Moreover, it was stupendously intense. It was the most intense that he had ever felt!

Wei Wuyin's urge to exploit throbbed in his heart. However, he frowned as he instinctively felt that this Karmic Surge was different. It wasn't spread out into the world, an opportunity that could be easily seized upon manifesting, like the descent of Meadow Life Wood Essence he experienced shortly after receiving the Bloodline of Sin. No, it was focused upon a single entity, converging upon only that person!

Wei Wuyin's eyes brightened; he had never experienced that type of Karmic Fortune before!

Wen Mingna gave San Yongli a soft nod of agreement, taking Xiao Yanyue into her arms as her heart pounded fiercely from the heavenly radiance of karmic fortune exuding from San Yongli's halo. "I will," Wen Mingna replied.

San Yongli smiled contentedly and thankfully. With a Heavenly Seer guarding her, she had no doubt that Xiao Yanyue was at her safest, especially given how adept they were at evading and avoiding dangers.

She turned around.

Her eyes which were often like treasured rubies lost their shine as they became muddled with murderous intent that shook the world's ambient mana. Waves upon waves of intense mana fluctuations undulated from her body as she waved her hand, summoning forth her Heavenly Saint's Mana-type Mystic Rune's power. Within a flash, the vial of blood entered her grasp as she took a step forward.

The charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel's brows furrowed as he was tempted to try to seize the vial, but his caution got the better of him, and he took a step back, already in the process of executing his Ascension Movement Art. As for why he hadn't left yet? He sensed a particular presence nearby. His posturing of escape was merely for show!

He was waiting for an opportunity to sweep all of these delectable-looking women into his possession! Including that vial of Heavenly Saint's essence blood!

However, a moment later, his eyes bulged in uncontrollable disbelief!

San Yongli removed the lid and immediately poured the drop of blood into her mouth. When she did, all those who knew what the blood was were immediately stunned into disbelief. Even Wei Wuyin!

She drank a Heavenly Saint's essence blood?!

WHAT?!

San Yongli tapped into the unique combination of methods she had discovered in her journey. There was the 'True World, Martial Way Method' that forged her body with mana, generating an exceptional physique foundation known as the True World Resonance Body!

There was the 'Thirty-Three Heavenly Palaces of the Imperial Soul Method' that allowed her to, step by step, forge a psyche that had the grandeur of the Heavenly Palaces of myth, creating the illusory form of thirty-three palaces within her Sea of Consciousness, branding her Mind's Eye with a protective Imperial Heaven Aura that could, eventually, form a resonance with the heavens and establish a genuine Seed of Imperial Law!

She had planned to take this from a future Emperor that she suspected was the now-deceased Grand Prince of the Myriad Monarch Sect. It was his greatest fortune written within the book!

There was the 'Microcosm Origin Method' that allowed her to refine a Profound Meridian that could nurture the Origin State, allowing her to actively cultivate her Origin State to higher levels naturally! At its highest level, it could give birth to a type of Divine Origin that one could possess without becoming a Spiritualist!

It was the True Elemental Emperor's greatest opportunity. She had seized this as well from the soul jade in her Sea of Consciousness!

She had scoured the world for opportunities and gathered them all upon her body. Every last aspect of her cultivation base now resonated as the Heavenly Saint's essence blood permeated throughout her body. Using her Heavenly Saint Runes that were etched onto her fingernails, she slightly gained a semblance of control over it.

Suddenly—

—BOOSH!!!

Her aura exploded outwards! The aurora borealis immediately was blown away, on the verge of complete dispersal, and her presence dominated the senses. The world became dark except for a single figure, bathed in radiant, pulsating black light that was incomparably vigorous, exuding a level of pure physical power that only Heavenly Saints could!

"...!!!" The charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel was immediately frightened so badly that his soul nearly left his body. His senses blared with noises so loud that he couldn't hear himself think. But his instincts took over, and he no longer postured to escape—HE ESCAPED!

WHOOSH!

The charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel fled. First, there was this Mystic Star Phase woman that could summon forth the power of an Earthly Saint, and now this white-haired woman was exuding the power of a Heavenly Saint?! Although it was faint, although it was definitely temporary, although she was definitely paying some form of price, the charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel didn't dare to stay.

While the Earthly Saint and Heavenly Saint might be divided by a single cultivation stage, the Worldly Saint Phase, if he was a dry fish on the cutting board for even the weakest genuine Worldly Saint, one could only imagine how a single ounce of a Heavenly Saint's power could ruin him!

San Yongli looked like a goddess forged from black-colored divine radiance, her figure was irresistibly alluring, and her presence was godly to an extreme. This was a power that not a single person in this world had ever felt before.

HEAVENLY RADIANCE!

San Yongli could feel the incomparably terrifying power course through her body, barely contained by her many methods and forms of external power, and she swelled with a feeling of invincibility. Was this how an Ascended being felt? Was this how a Heavenly Saint felt?!

Her every breath moved the Mystic Dao, becoming incomparably clear within her senses. This feeling was etched into her soul. When she looked at the charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel, she was taken aback.

The Evil Sentinel was pushing forth with all his power, executing an Ascension Movement Art, exerting the fullest extent of his 'incomplete' Mystic Heart Intent, and flying away at an extreme speed! But to her, to her currently obsidian eyes exuding heavenly radiance and physical power of a Heavenly Saint, the charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel might as well be a snail.

He was…slow. So, so very slow.

She glanced at the world around her and felt as if time itself had been frozen. She could also sense that the fabric of the world's structure was slowly fissuring at the seams, on the verge of breaking apart. Curiosity flared in her heart, and she tapped into the Physical Power of a Heavenly Saint and enhanced her Spiritual Sense. When she did, she immediately discovered a silver-eyed young man standing upon a lone mountain, observing the world as if it were his.

Wei Wuyin!

"With this power, I could—" The thought of using this power to deal with Wei Wuyin, no longer having to deal with the potential danger of another Temporal Reincarnator birthed itself in her heart, but as it did, a faint sigh swept her ears. It was majestic to an utter extreme, containing a power that caused her heavenly radiance to shiver slightly.

"One strike," the voice said.

San Yongli's pupils constricted slightly as she saw Wei Wuyin, the look of surprise no longer in his eyes, and his handsome visage stared directly at her from an unimaginable distance away.

He…could move?!?!

The rest of the world was moving in what could be considered slow motion to the point of freezing, yet Wei Wuyin's lips moved and sent a message to her!

One strike!

"Any more, and this world will collapse entirely," Wei Wuyin said as he took a step forward, imposing might ripping from his heaven-defying body exuding an eternal aura. Six rays containing the power of six laws flowed from his pupils, gazing upon San Yongli with a strong, undefiable gaze befitting the Ascendant Emperor of Neo-Dawn!

San Yongli's heart pounded violently as her belief that Wei Wuyin was an old monster who also reincarnated just as she did was all but confirmed at that moment! He had means no less inferior than hers, and it dawned on her that she might have provoked a strong, unfathomable enemy.

She held her thoughts in her heart, giving Wei Wuyin a cold, indifferent look. "I know," she said, saving face by remaining utterly calm and focused as if everything was well within her expectations, including Wei Wuyin's words. She pointed her finger toward the charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel.

"You like taking from others? Then I'll take everything from you," her voice was like a heavenly fairy giving out a death sentence, incomparably soul-chilling! Her finger contained the power of the Heavenly Saint, and she pulsed with heavenly radiance once again.

The following events happened so fast that not even Wei Wuyin could react!

The charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel was hit with a blast of power; his cultivation base was cleanly extracted from him. Within a blink of an eye, his once terrifying body had become mortal as a charcoal-colored ball was pushed out.

All of the Evil Sentinel's lifetime of cultivation was extracted within the blink of an eye!

Besides his Existential Ascended Framework, everything else had been thoroughly extracted and placed within that charcoal-colored ball!

The Evil Sentinel's expression twisted in what could be described as the most painful face a man could ever reveal, and he fell from the sky, powerless and helpless.

San Yongli's heavenly radiance teetered on the edge of collapse as she waved her hand, bringing the ball to her. She tapped it, thoroughly refining it to its purest state, melding the Mystic Soul and all forms of innate energies, essence, and Mystic Runes within, and then sent it into Xiao Yanyue's body using the last remaining power of her Heavenly Radiance Form.

She then lost all her astonishing, heaven-shaking power, and the world returned to normal.

A wave of exhaustion swept over her soul and body. She was incomparably tired. She was so tired she hadn't noticed that there were striations upon her Astral Soul, Meridians, and Dantian; they were the faint traces of a Heavenly Saint, and her Origin State was vibrating as it seemed on the verge of making consecutive breakthroughs in its state.

Just as she was about to relax, her eyelids were so heavy she wanted to sleep right then and there, an eerie sound that could rupture the mind and spirit resounded.

"Kekekeke! What power!" The marble-skinned Evil Sentinel's voice resounded as she arrived!

Yi Yun awoke from his stupor and his heart pounded. He wanted to scream out 'run' to San Yongli, but his words were seized at his throat as he was slammed with a spiritual assault!

The marble-skinned Evil Sentinel had hidden away, biding her time as she waited for an opportunity to team up with the charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel, but that man never took action, so she didn't act either. They were both waiting for the other person to make a move first but neither did! In fact, if not for certain spontaneous inclinations they suddenly felt, they would have sent transmissions to each other and coordinated their actions. But they hadn't!

She flew explosively toward Wen Mingna. She didn't dare go after San Yongli, fearing she could have another trump card! San Yongli must be a cherished descendant of a Heavenly Saint if she could unleash such power in her mind, and she would have countless treasures to protect her life. But the woman that was just given the charcoal-skinned Evil Sentinel's power?

SHE WAS FREE REAL ESTATE!

Her words sent sound waves of spiritual power that disrupted the Sea of Consciousnesses of everyone present. She didn't care about Wen Mingna, about to slaughter her and take Xiao Yanyue within a flash.

However, as she arrived a few feet before Wen Mingna, her hands reaching to grab Xiao Yanyue, her eyes saw Wen Mingna with a faint smile of pity.

What?

What was that for?

ZU!

A single sound.

It was barely discoverable.

And its origins were barely visible.

Yet the result was extremely pronounced.

Wen Mingna watched as the marble-skinned Evil Sentinel's head tilted violently to the side. From her temple, a large hole bore into her head, piercing out of the other side as brain matter and blood splashed into the air.

The light in the marble-skinned Evil Sentinel's eyes immediately went out.

She died instantly.

Thud.

It was a soft yet heavy sound. The marble-skinned Evil Sentinel collapsed right at Wen Mingna's feet, her hand still outstretched as Mystic Power flowed from her fingertips. A pool of white blood pooled beneath her body, her body bereft of even a Mystic Soul.

Wen Mingna sighed in her heart, glancing in the direction of the arrow. She gave a brief nod.

Yao Huoyi closed his left eye as a marble-colored Mystic Soul briefly appeared within, exuding an incredible Mystic Aura, using his hand to pull down a blindfold to cover his left eye once again.

One of the three arrows etched on the bow had vanished.

"Finish it," Yao Huoyi said.

Shui Fengbao didn't reply with words. He immediately unleashed a fiery blast that was followed by a hellish, soul-shivering scream of agony before abruptly ending.

Dead!

He incinerated the Demi-Mystic Lord!

When he arrived beside Yao Huoyi, the Child of Fire had a Mystic Soul enveloped in flames in his hands.

[Author's Note: SNIPER!! Gotta say, the title invented by my awesome readers 'Myriad Treasures Saintess' fits. XD Also! The implications of all these stolen opportunities. Lol.
