377: Chapter 96 Principle of Life 377: Chapter 96 Principle of Life The apex of the sky crumbled, and thousands of brilliant lights fell.
At this moment, the Ruyi Dao of Emperor Qi explosively shattered from within.
Countless Tao rules transformed into fierce flames, igniting the heavens and earth.
The entire Great Yue Kingdom faced “destruction” within an instant; extreme temperatures descended, turning yellow sands into fragments, and cities into purgatories!
White Paper Cave Heaven too burst into flames at this moment!
Standing within the yellow sand, Lu Yuzhen remained still as a wood carving, but his overcoat ignited in the process of being thrown, scattering sparks.
In just a moment, his eyebrows and hair were all ignited by the flames transformed from the Ruyi Dao.
But behind him,
that space of three feet remained tranquil and undisturbed.
Xie Xuanyi, clad in black, with eyes watching his nose and nose watching his heart, was in a state of “meditation”.
The only thing burning on him was a white scrap of paper attached to his forehead.
A tiny piece of paper,
under tremendous pressure, burned slowly, emitting a faint fire.
Within the Purple Mansion Heart Lake,
two figures, one large and one small, one white and one black, stood side by side.
Xie Xuanyi, after a moment of silence, extended his palm and gently touched the “Undying Spring” conveyed by Lu Yuzhen.
“Hiss hiss hiss…”
The heavy and harsh scorching sound echoed throughout the ancient sandy nation, as if to pierce the illusion and directly enter into the Purple Mansion Heart Lake.
After taking a deep breath briefly,
Xie Xuanyi made a decision.
He opened his eyes to a brilliant scene of swirling, flying white papers and splashing Ruyi Dao Fire; this whole world, about to face Silent Annihilation, was prematurely enveloped by the power of Tao from Lu Yuzhen…
The two “Great Destiny Carriers” bearing the Undying Spring now stood together, their minds interconnected.
The “Undying Spring” accumulated by Lord Lu, through the Undying Spring Eye within Xie Xuanyi’s Dantian, entered this realm of destruction.
Ruyi Dao fractured into fire.
And the myriad of white papers were cold and beautiful like snow.
…
…
The roar from the apex of the sky persisted for a long time.
The “mutual burn” of the Ruyi Dao was not just an instant of brilliance.
The existence of Emperor Qi’s level with deep foundational Tao…
This eruption of Tao Fire lasted for a good half an incense stick.
Qing Li, the one most severely eroded by the “Ruyi Dao Fire”, almost single-handedly bore ninety percent of the Tao Fire.
The rest almost burned the Great Yue Kingdom to ashes.
By the time everything was destroyed, tranquility ensued.
Burnt white paper barriers, carried away by the wind, turned into dark ashes scattering across the sky, revealing the figures of Lu Yuzhen and Xie Xuanyi.
Lord Lu’s face was paler than ever, like paper.
This description was quite fitting.
Because…
he was indeed “paper”.
When the Ruyi Dao Fire fell and poured down, his body truly transformed into countless white papers, protecting Xie Xuanyi desperately within…
To save this mutual burn, he relied on Xie Xuanyi’s “Undying Spring Eye.”
“Whoosh whoosh.”
Black scraps of paper shed, fluttering.
Xie Xuanyi’s black robe was enveloped by white papers, turning into a large cocoon, which now slowly cracked open.
The saying goes “emerging from the cocoon as a butterfly”.
But when this paper cocoon broke, there was no butterfly.
Xie Xuanyi’s expression was no better than Lu Yuzhen’s…
Heaven and earth burned together, Tao Fire descended.
This calamity was arguably the most dangerous one Xie Xuanyi had ever faced.
After a millennium-long battle, Emperor Qi, realizing that the momentum was lost and the game was up, decided to ignite the Tao, bringing down the entire Great Yue Kingdom with him.
Hence, this Tao Fire contained the ultimate meaning of “Destruction”.
To resolve this situation, creating a sufficient amount of the Undying Spring, embodying the ultimate “life”, was necessary!
During that brief moment of combating the Tao Fire, Xie Xuanyi almost consumed all the Divine Soul Elixirs and supplements prepared by Lu Yuzhen, employing all the Divine Soul Defense Treasures.
Even so,
his Divine Soul was still nearly depleted at this moment.
The world was spinning.
It took a while before Xie Xuanyi recovered, mustering all his strength to exhale a breath of turbid air, his vision gradually clearing from blur to clarity.
Numerous rough sands swept past in his view.
Xie Xuanyi held his forehead, taking several deep breaths.
He looked towards Lu Yuzhen, not far away, his voice hoarse, “So much ‘Undying Spring’, where did you get it from?”
…
Lu Yuzhen did not respond to this question.
He stood amidst the sandstorm, silently looking at the majestic giant dharma in the sky, spoke softly, “That heavenly figure, just short of the last thread of vitality, could be completely felled…
Should I complete this strike, or will you?”
“?”
Xie Xuanyi was taken aback.
He followed the direction Lu Yuzhen was looking.
The mutual burn of the Ruyi Dao had ended, a huge hole crushed in this piece of heaven and earth, with fire clouds spreading above and colorful lights falling all around.
Emperor Qi’s dharma still stood tall.
However,
its upper body was already penetrated by a True Dragon.
The Tao Fire continued to burn, with the True Dragon entirely entwined in flames…
“Is it not over yet?”
Xie Xuanyi clenched his teeth, struggling to stand up.
At this moment, his whole body was in extreme pain.
The Golden Body forged from Primordial Fire seemed as though it was about to fall apart.
A heavenly being, truly nearing the level of a True Immortal.
A thousand-year-long fierce battle.
Even now, having completely ignited his own Tao, he still wasn’t directly eliminated.
“Emperor Qi’s ‘extinction’ is inevitable,”
Lu Yuzhen whispered lightly, “But it’s uncertain whether the ‘Undying Spring’ we sent can save that poor True Dragon.”
The entire land was purified by the Ruyi Dao Fire, but within the yellow sands, there still lingered a faint mist of water.
“Do you still have the strength…”
Lu Yuzhen turned back, smiling at Xie Xuanyi, “Do you dare to go see?”
