Chapter 129: Lilian's Full Power, Obtaining the Foreign Flame, and Crushing Thomas! (Part 2)
"It should be..."
"He must be sincere, right?"
The Ice Emperor's feelings were complicated. At this moment, he found it hard to
believe that Tang Wu was so dark-hearted, or rather, he didn't dare to believe it.
Suddenly, he thought of many things.
If Tang Wu's grief was insincere, and he didn't hear what I said because he was too overwhelmed, then..."
"No, he must be sincere."
"After all, it's reasonable for him to be so focused on his grief that he ignores what others say."
The Ice Emperor tried to convince himself.
He didn't dare to believe that Tang Wu's heart was so dark.
"How dare you!"
"Little girl, you're asking for death!"
Before they could make a move, Tang Wu shouted, "Die!"
"Today, we're going to have a big harvest!
"Haha, so that's how it is! As long as we're not too greedy, we won't have to fight to the death, and at least three of us can get the rare flames. Wonderful!"
Accompanied by the pharmacist's controlled Xiao Ling'er joining the battle, the originally chaotic, ice-spirit cold-flame struggling Seventh Realm experts suddenly became excited and enthusiastic.
Among the stronger ones, they instantly felt at ease! If there were only ice-spirit cold-flames, they might not have been able to snatch them. But with the unknown Xiao Ling'er bringing multiple rare flames, surely they could get one, right?
"Let me see!"
A refining master carefully identified them, then revealed a delighted expression: "Undying Inferno, Heavenly Dragon Bone Fire?"
"Huh?!"
"Heavenly Dragon Bone Fire isn't the Fire Virtue Sect's treasured rare flame, why do you have it?!"
That expert was astonished, then said: "And what about the Earth Core Demon Fire?"
"This Earth Core Demon Fire... it's said that the Moon Seizing Sect obtained it back then, but after all these years, it was supposedly taken away. Yet, here it is with you?"
"No, that means the information was false. Although the Moon Seizing Sect has declined and almost been destroyed, the Earth Core Demon Fire remained in their possession, only to be passed down to you?!"
"Hmph!"
At this moment, another expert unleashed a terrifying attack, instantly causing the heavens to shatter and spatial fissures to swarm in, along with mysterious Dao principles overwhelming Xiao Ling'er.
"Who cares about the reason?"
"Today, these rare flames will change owners!"
"Not bad!"
"Kill!"
They diverted some of their attention to surround and attack Xiao Ling'er.
Although surprised by Xiao Ling'er's sudden burst from Fifth Realm to possessing Seventh Realm strength, and their brief exchange, so what? As top experts, could they really be defeated by a Fifth Realm cultivator?
Ridiculous!
Their astonishment was at Xiao Ling'er's abnormal strength, not fear of being counter-killed.
Those who initially intended to kill Xiao Ling'er now attacked with increased ferocity.
"This Xiao Ling'er is indeed an extraordinary genius."
"Can't be spared!"
Though acquainted, they weren't from the same faction or background. However, they shared one thing: all had past grudges against the Moon Seizing Sect!
Especially two of the experts, who originated from the Moon Seizing Sect's affiliate powers during its peak... They had chosen to betray.
Precisely because of this, they still fared well today, even seizing many valuable items from the declining Moon Seizing Sect, living quite comfortably.
Yet, for the same reason, they were the ones most unwilling to see the Moon Seizing Sect rise again.
As traitors, they would likely face reckoning if the Moon Seizing Sect revived.
Traitors... are more resented than enemies.
Previously, they hadn't taken action, not because they were unwilling to eradicate the sect, but due to special reasons that forced them to desist.
Now, with the Moon Seizing Sect showing signs of resurgence, and Xiao Ling'er being called an extraordinary genius, they couldn't sleep well.
"Moreover, we didn't expect the Earth Core Demon Fire to remain hidden within the Moon Seizing Sect all along, never seized!"
"We thought it was taken, just not publicly revealed."
Only, due to that reason, they couldn't openly strike.
Fortunately, the ice-spirit cold-flame appeared here.
Coming for the rare flames... makes sense, right?
Xiao Ling'er sought death by daring to disrespect them; striking back was justified, wasn't it? Besides, not just them were attacking.
They exchanged a covert glance, intensifying their assault.
Among the present experts, at least half shifted their attack target entirely to Xiao Ling'er, disregarding the ice-spirit cold-flame.
Other experts? They didn't even spare a glance!
......
"Teacher, the Hundred Refining Divine Flame should remain unrevealed, but they're going overboard!"
Xiao Ling'er sensed the external chaos within her cognitive sea, astonished: "If the Hundred Refining Divine Flame is exposed as well, won't they go berserk?!"
Rare flame rankings: Undying Inferno (13th), Heavenly Dragon Bone Fire (15th), Earth Core Demon Fire (17th), Ice-Spirit Cold-Flame (19th). But the Hundred Refining Divine Flame ranked 9th, the only one within the top ten!
To Xiao Ling'er, if the Hundred Refining Divine Flame remained hidden and they were already this frantic, what if it were exposed? Wouldn't everyone rush to kill her immediately?!
"No!"
The pharmacist, however, keenly sensed an issue: "Although these three rare flames are precious, given the current battle situation, they shouldn't be this fully invested in targeting you alone!"
"There's a problem!"
"Hmm?"
Xiao Ling'er furrowed her brow: "This...?"
"What problem?"
"I should have no grudges with them, right?"
"You may have no grudges, but that doesn't mean everything you possess has no connection to them."
"Everything I possess?"
"Perhaps, they're after your identity as the Moon Seizing Sect's Great Disciple."
The pharmacist coldly snorted: "I've slept for many years, missing the Moon Seizing Sect's decline. I don't know what transpired."
"But the Moon Seizing Sect's downfall must have its reasons."
"Those who kicked them while they were down, and those unwilling to see the Moon Seizing Sect rise again, are certainly numerous."
"And you, though not exceptionally outstanding last night, proved yourself before those geniuses. With these rare flames..."
"There must be many who want to kill you."
"That makes sense." Xiao Ling'er pondered, observing the pharmacist's intense battle: "But how did they know I'd arrive here at this moment?"
"Hmm?" The pharmacist was surprised, having not considered this point.
"What did you say?"
"Thomas!"
Lilian's eyes narrowed, and her voice turned cold, "My first thought was him!"
"In that case, we should crush him to ashes and leave no trace of him." Elder Yao also believed that Thomas was highly suspicious.
"Let's kill him first!"
"But behind him is the Moonlit Sect..."
Lilian hesitated for a moment.
Elder Yao's eyes glinted with a hint of cold determination, "Don't hesitate. You've already killed a rabbit demon, and if we're going to make an enemy, we already have!"
"That's true."
Lilian made up her mind and gritted her teeth, "I'll definitely kill him!"
"Be careful, teacher!"
Another wave of attacks came rushing towards them.
Six powerful Seventh Realm powerhouses unleashed their full strength.
The remaining six Seventh Realm powerhouses launched their attacks as well, not at their full power but still terrifying.
Even Elder Yao's expression turned solemn under the onslaught.
"That's enough."
She took a deep breath, "At this moment, most of their attention is on us, teacher and disciple. It's the perfect time to seize the Divine Fire."
Elder Yao frowned and then activated the Thousand Lightning Illusory Body, splitting herself into four! One of the clones took the brunt of the next wave of attacks, briefly blocking the onslaught.
The main body and the other two clones unleashed their power!
"Buddha's Lotus!"
"Great Sun Burning Heaven!"
A lotus flower appeared.
Two blazing suns.
Almost simultaneously, they bloomed in that area.
Heat filled the air, and the intense light was blinding.
The Divine Fire raged...
And an unknown principle spread at that moment.
The suns expanded, and the lotus flower blossomed.
Burning Heaven Boiling Sea!
"What?!"
"Not good!"
"Retreat!"
The terrifying attack made the Seventh Realm powerhouses' scalps tingle. None of them wanted to take the hit head-on, and they started to back away.
But they had been pushed too far, and now, retreating unscathed was even more difficult.
There were twelve powerhouses.
Aside from the three who were relatively far away and fast enough to completely dodge the 'Three Suns in One Sky' attack, the other nine were engulfed by the flames.
Soon, grunts of pain filled the air.
Then, one by one, fiery human figures flew out of the area.
Obviously, they had all taken a hit.
They tried to extinguish the flames on their bodies, but everything that had been frozen by the Crystal Cold Fire was now thawing.
The ground melted, turning into a river of molten lava that roared towards them.
Witnessing this, their scalps tingled, and they all felt it was outrageous.
"Our speed isn't slow, and we avoided the central area, yet there's still such terrifying power?!" One of the Seventh Realm Second Level powerhouses had a grim expression.
Although he had extinguished the Divine Fire, his right arm was charred, like a piece of charcoal!
"What exactly is this...?"
"Does the Moonseizing Sect have such a heritage?"
"Why didn't we know about this?!"
Those who had malicious intentions were shocked and furious.
"Not good!"
Someone realized the problem, "She's going to take the Crystal Cold Fire!"
"Kill!"
"We must act together, freeze this space, and expel the Divine Fire!"
"Quick!"
With a loud shout, they almost moved simultaneously, but it was a step too late.
Elder Yao's controlled Lilian had succeeded!
When it came to combat experience, Elder Yao was like an ancestor to them, and she wouldn't be led by them. Even when she was suppressed earlier, it was intentional, showing weakness to her enemies.
This sudden burst of power was planned, and they couldn't stop her so easily.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh! Hundreds of fiery figures suddenly shot out from the sea of fire, rushing in all directions.
And the flames on these figures were the Unextinguishable Swallowing Flame, capable of devouring and burning.
Even approaching with divine sense would be burned by the flames.
For a moment, even these powerhouses couldn't distinguish which fiery figure was the real Lilian.
"Chase!"
"She's probably heading towards the city!"
"No, I think she'll go against the flow..."
"Both are possible!"
The powerhouses' first reaction was to pursue.
Whether it was for the Divine Fire or to kill Lilian, they were all furious.
So many powerhouses, and yet a mere Lilian had escaped? But at this moment, they had a disagreement.
No one could be sure which fiery figure was the real Lilian.
"Split up!"
"Chase her!"
"I think it's the fastest one!"
They rushed out, using their fastest speed to intercept.
But Elder Yao's controlled Lilian wasn't weak, and her speed was not slow either. With the Three Thousand Lightning Movement, her speed increased dramatically.
"Chase the one with the lightning!"
"The others are decoys!"
They split up.
But...
As they got close to some of the figures, one that was initially slow and seemed like a decoy suddenly accelerated.
Wings sprouted from its back, flapping furiously, and lightning crackled under its feet, like a lightning dragon tearing through the sky!
"No, that's the real one!"
The powerhouses were enraged, but at that moment, they were drawn to the decoys, and Lilian's main body was a distance away. If they wanted to catch up now, it was almost impossible.
"Damn it!"
"Is she really going to escape?"
Those who came for the Divine Fire were angry at their wasted efforts.
Those who came to kill Lilian were furious and frustrated.
Not only had they failed to kill her, but she had also risen above them, becoming a force to be reckoned with right under their noses.
If this continued...
Things would turn dire!
They used all their might, determined to capture Lilian.
But Lilian's cultivation at that moment wasn't at the Fifth Realm, and with Elder Yao's boost, even with their blood escape techniques, they were still a step behind.
"It's over!"
"We've caught up!"
A distance of several thousand kilometers seemed far, but for cultivators of their level, it was nothing.
However, as soon as Xiao Ling'er entered the Imperial Capital, they could only watch helplessly.
"Damn it!"
The Powerhouses didn't want to accept this outcome. They roared and sent a Communication Talisman to the Sixth Level cultivators who had retreated earlier, ordering them to stop Xiao Ling'er.
But...
No one was a fool.
Xiao Ling'er, a Fifth Stage cultivator, could easily defeat a Sixth Level Tier 3 cultivator.
Now, she had forced back a group of Powerhouses, and they wanted them to stop her?
"If we risk our lives, we might be able to stop her for a moment, but then what?"
They were defeated in an instant.
She was blocked for a moment and then surrounded.
The benefits, the exotic fires, were all theirs for the taking.
"Are we going to throw our lives away for nothing?"
Using their lives, in the name of the benefits, would all belong to them?
No one who had cultivated to the Sixth Level was a fool.
Moreover, seizing this opportunity was a matter of life and death, and everyone's heart was filled with determination, like a bird startled by a mere bow.
In an instant, they thought of this.
Block?
Blocking was impossible!
Amidst the intimidating voices of the Seventh Level Powerhouses, they not only failed to stop her but instead turned and fled...
They dared not block her path.
But they were also afraid of incurring her wrath, so they chose to retreat first as a sign of respect.
"Damn it!"
The Seventh Level Powerhouses stomped their feet in frustration, but for a while, they had no better solution.
They had been outmaneuvered.
In reality, they couldn't catch up.
But...
There was always a way.
Just then, a loud laughter echoed: "Xiaoshan, I told you, you and I will always be together!"
"Revive! Ah! Love!"
"Second Soul Ring, Tai Yin Jade Rabbit, appear!"
Boom!
Thomas suddenly appeared, blocking Xiao Ling'er's path to the Imperial Capital. His aura was overwhelming, and he seemed invincible. Behind him, two Soul Rings shone like divine light, enhancing his sacred physique.
The rain had stopped, and the sun shone brightly.
Thomas acquired his second Soul Ring, feeling accomplished.
"Cloud Entangling Chain, wrap around me!"
He shouted, and his first Soul Ring glowed. The Cloud Entangling Demon Vine surged with power, and countless vines entangled him.
Elder Yao's eyes narrowed slightly.
If she had the time, she would have killed Thomas right there.
But behind her, twelve Powerhouses were in hot pursuit, and she couldn't afford to delay.
"Huff."
Suppressing her killing intent, she waved her hand, and the Unextinguishable Swallowing Flame erupted, transforming into a sea of raging fire that blocked and burned the approaching vines.
Those countless vines instantly turned into thousands of fire snakes, a terrifying sight.
"Hmph!"
Thomas sneered, his offense broken, but he remained calm.
Indeed, his first Soul Ring was insufficient.
So...
Watch my second Soul Ring!
"Xiaoshan, lend me your strength!"
Buzz!
The second Soul Ring lit up, its power increasing a thousandfold.
Then, a hundred-foot-tall Tai Yin Jade Rabbit illusion emerged from the Soul Ring.
Its eyes were bloodshot, its fur sleek and shiny. At first glance, it seemed like a real Tai Yin Jade Rabbit had descended.
Bang!
There was no fancy display.
Just a simple kick.
Her jade-like leg thrust forward, and its power was immense and astonishing.
To some extent, it distorted space.
This attack, although not at the Seventh Level, was extremely close.
If facing an ordinary Peerless Talent, she could either kick them to death or severely injure them.
But the one she faced was Xiao Ling'er in her strongest state.
Xiao Ling'er remained composed and used the Yellow Springs Finger, instantly shattering the Jade Rabbit illusion without affecting her speed.
"Pfft!"
Thomas suffered backlash and coughed up blood, falling from the sky, his life hanging by a thread.
The second Soul Ring dimmed due to the backlash and couldn't be used again for a short time.
"How..."
"How could this be?!"
Thomas was momentarily bewildered, feeling incredulous.
How could this be? He was a Peerless Talent, destined to become a Divine King!
He even possessed a soul master system from the Divine Realm!
He had even sacrificed Xiaoshan... and yet, he was still defeated in a single blow?
Was this truly a loss of both the master and the soldiers?
Not only had he failed to kill Xiao Ling'er, but she had also taken the Ice Spirit Cold Flame. Moreover, even his Dao companion had died!
Although he had acquired a second Soul Ring, his worst-case scenario wasn't limited to this!
At this moment, he was infuriated.
Thomas almost collapsed, his Daoist heart beginning to waver.
But...
Xiao Ling'er sighed softly.
"What a pity, I didn't have time to finish him off."
She knew that Thomas seemed miserable, but in reality, his remnant soul was assisting him, and it wouldn't be easy to deal with him for a while.
Now, she didn't have time.
It was best to hurry back to the Imperial Capital.
Without hesitation, she rushed towards the Imperial Capital, her body surrounded by exotic fires.
The Seventh Level Powerhouses' faces turned ashen, and they could only watch helplessly.
They couldn't catch up.
Finally, Xiao Ling'er entered the Imperial Capital, and they could only watch from afar, grumbling about their next move.
Some of them started planning their next course of action.
...
"Hmm?"
Lu Ming and Long Aotian were on the run when they tried to re-share their battle strength. The initial intention was to check on Xiao Ling'er and the others, and if someone was in danger, they could locate them through the shared battle strength.
But the result surprised them.
"Hmm?"
"There's an extra one?"
How could there be an extra one?
