Chapter 126: Surviving The Calamity
This was Jiliu Jia’s strongest attack so far. To avenge Xu Shanrou, he had unleashed it once before, but that time he had been in a coma for half a month. If not for Yao Xianzi secretly treating him, Jiliu Jia would not have survived.
Jiliu Jia couldn’t think too much. He could feel the formidable strength of that Morning Purple Wind. If he didn’t do something, his body would definitely be taken over. Losing his body was equivalent to losing his life. For Xu Shanrou, he couldn’t die.
The approaching Morning Purple Wind felt the immense pressure and began to feel timid. He didn’t know the consequences if he were to collide head-on. While timid, he was also overjoyed. He never expected Jiliu Jia’s body to have four elements coexisting. The immense attraction made the Morning Purple Wind hesitate for a moment. Ultimately, desire prevailed, and he resolutely charged forward.
At this moment, the giant Ice Blade and the huge Red Fire Dragon also charged forward. However, the Morning Purple Wind showed no hesitation. In his eyes, once he obtained Jiliu Jia’s body, he would have the chance to become the strongest in this world and potentially reach the Realm of a Tomb Master.
Such a great temptation made him unable to let go, because this was an opportunity, and he had to seize it.
With a dull thud, the four-colored disc collided with the purple wind and clouds, and then the Fire Dragon and the Ice Blade joined in. It could be said to be a world-destroying combination. Just as everyone didn’t realize it, it instantly bloomed, like an alluring flower, incredibly brilliant.
Colorful Magical Power Ripples spread out rapidly. The sound was not loud, but the radiance contained enough energy to kill anyone.
Jiliu Jia fell lightly to the ground, his body numb, with only a trace of his Divine Sense still able to perceive the world.
Bing Han Yanyan and Mei Jier beside him were in a deep coma. Jiliu Jia couldn’t even sense their Divine Sense. If a person lost their Divine Sense, it meant they were truly dead.
His Divine Sense flew out of his body. Looking at the two women lying silently on the ground, Jiliu Jia’s heart burned with rage. He knew that both of them had paid the price of their lives to save him. At this moment, Jiliu Jia was like a madman, his Divine Sense surging, searching the air for the Morning Purple Wind’s figure. He now had only one thought: to avenge them.
As Jiliu Jia, whose Divine Sense was extremely powerful, his Divine Sense was not completely lost in this world-destroying explosion, but it was very little. However, this did not stop him from seeking revenge on the Morning Purple Wind. At this moment, he was in a state similar to when Xu Shanrou was injured by Wan Fu, almost frenzied. He roared to the sky, “Morning Purple Wind, I will tear you into ten thousand pieces!”
Suddenly, he felt a gentle breeze. Looking up abruptly, he saw a mass of purple wind and clouds slowly drifting in the air. Jiliu Jia could feel a Divine Sense struggling within this wind vortex. Jiliu Jia, burning with rage, naturally would not let him go. His Divine Sense suddenly enveloped the remaining Divine Sense, and then the voice of the Morning Purple Wind was heard, “Youngster, if you let me go, I promise to be your servant for life!”
The Morning Purple Wind’s voice lacked its previous strength. Instead, it was filled with extreme exhaustion. He never expected to be so heavily injured in this attack, almost destroying his millennia of cultivation. At this moment, only a remnant Divine Sense and the Morning Purple Wind’s True Form remained.
But how could Jiliu Jia let him go? In his eyes, the Morning Purple Wind was the murderer of the two women, and these two women had lost their lives to save him. The Morning Purple Wind’s desperate pleas still lingered, but Jiliu Jia, like a maddened wild beast, tightly enveloped the Divine Sense with his own.
For Jiliu Jia, Divine Sense attacks were the easiest and most familiar. Moreover, Jiliu Jia’s remaining Divine Sense was far more powerful than the Morning Purple Wind’s. In just one day, the pleas disappeared, and Jiliu Jia completely refined and fused with that Divine Sense.
After fusing with the Morning Purple Wind’s Divine Sense, that purple wind and clouds became an ownerless object, drifting aimlessly in the air like a fallen leaf. Standing quietly beside his physical body, Jiliu Jia felt immense emotion. He never imagined that one day he would look at his own corpse. The bitterness welled up in his heart. Xu Shanrou’s voice and smile, Bing Han Yanyan’s cold face, Mei Jier’s unpredictable moods, like mist by a pond, appeared before his eyes, fragment by fragment.
Death was something everyone feared, as there were always many reasons difficult to let go of. It was even more so for Jiliu Jia. Xu Shanrou was still lying quietly on the cold bed, waiting for him to return and save her. He had also promised to heal Xu Shanrou’s eyes, but Xu Shanrou’s life had not yet been saved, and he was about to go first.
In the Ghost Tomb Space, the voices and smiles of four teachers and a mother-daughter pair appeared in Jiliu Jia’s mind. Jiliu Jia would disappoint these people. And the Cold Poison in Bing Han Yanyan’s body, the Viper Flower Poison in Mei Yan’er’s body, these were all Jiliu Jia’s promises. But now Jiliu Jia was dead, and he could not fulfill his promises.
A great sense of loss surged into his heart. Jiliu Jia charged around frantically, unwilling to accept it. He didn’t want to disappoint people; he couldn’t let Xu Shanrou die waiting. Roaring and howling, two tears flowed from his eyes. Divine Sense had no tears, but Jiliu Jia could feel that he was not only crying but also bleeding from his heart.
Just as Jiliu Jia was extremely dejected, a flash of light suddenly appeared at the center of his corpse’s brow. Three illusory figures appeared before Jiliu Jia: Feng Chenzi, Shui Chenzi, and Lei Chenzi. With a loud laugh, Lei Chenzi said, “Youngster, your Divine Sense is floating around looking at the scenery, why don’t you hurry back to your physical body!” As he spoke, a red pill with seven veins appeared in his hand, and then it was stuffed into the mouth of Jiliu Jia’s physical body.
As soon as the pill entered his mouth, Jiliu Jia’s Divine Sense trembled violently. He felt his physical body summoning it. His Divine Sense shot forward and rushed into his physical body. A moment later, a slight cough came from Jiliu Jia’s mouth. Jiliu Jia was overjoyed; he wasn’t dead, he wasn’t dead!
He felt that his body was extremely weak, with not a trace of Magic Power left. The Three-Colored Qi Whirlpool in his Dantian had stopped spinning. A cough sounded, and Jiliu Jia endured the severe pain and stood up. He looked at the three illusory figures before him, his face naturally filled with joy. However, his joy instantly turned to sadness because he saw the two women beside him lying quietly, without a trace of breath. “Old Man Lei, save them both!”
The three looked at each other and shook their heads slightly. Feng Chenzi looked up at the drifting Morning Purple Wind and sighed softly. For Feng Chenzi, this Elemental Spirit Wind was his lifelong pursuit, but he had no fate to obtain it.
“Youngster, we can’t save them. Only you can save them!” As he spoke, Feng Chenzi produced three green pills. “These pills are a necessary poison to save them, and you must also eat them.”
Taking the three green pills, Jiliu Jia was very confused. Pills and medicinal pills only had four colors: black, purple, red, and golden. Anything outside these four colors was poison, and these green pills were clearly poisons. However, Jiliu Jia didn’t think too much about it. He didn’t believe these three old men would take his life.
At this moment, Lei Chenzi reached out to stop him. “Youngster, aren’t you afraid this thing will take your life?”
Jiliu Jia gave a wry smile. “If they wanted my life, I would have died long ago!” He was about to swallow the pill, but Lei Chenzi still stopped him. “Now is not the time to eat this. You must first refine the Morning Purple Wind. After you succeed, then swallow this pill. However, I must remind you that this medicine will have some side effects. You must not give up halfway, otherwise, you won’t be able to save them!”
Jiliu Jia was stunned and quickly asked, “What side effects? Right, why hasn’t Yao Xianzi come out?”
The three looked at each other and smiled. “You’ll know the side effects when the time comes. As for Maid Yao, she said she didn’t want to dirty her eyes!” Saying this, they turned and walked towards the Light Gate. As they approached the gate, Lei Chenzi stopped. “By the way, when you start refining the Morning Purple Wind later, you must have the Morning Blue Cold Fire and Spring Source Spirit Water exert their power simultaneously, otherwise, you might lose balance. If you can refine it successfully, your strength will greatly increase!”
