Chapter 2608: Tear the Ranking

Translator: Legge

Just as the emotions of the crowd were gradually stirred by Meng Yao’s zither sound, a melodious sound of the zither sounded.

The Zither Immortal and Zither Fiend were finally fighting!

The sound of Qiu Siluo’s zither was completely different from Meng Yao’s.

Meng Yao’s zither sound was murderous and aggressive.

There was no sharpness in Qiu Siluo’s zither sound. Instead, there was a hint of reminiscence and memory.

It was like the warm sun in winter shining down on everyone’s hearts.

In terms of zither technique, Meng Yao was indeed superior to Qiu Siluo.

However, it was precisely because Meng Yao placed too much emphasis on the precision of her zither techniques that she was tainted with the aura of a craftsman and lacked a bit of piety towards the Zither Dao.

Meng Yao’s zither was too utilitarian.

She practiced the zither for fame, status and connections.

However, the reason why Qiu Siluo practiced the zither was because she liked it.

Her zither carried her Dao and its sound was moving.

Meng Yao’s song was a cold melody.

However, Qiu Siluo’s song contained her feelings.

In the end, what truly touched one’s heart was the deep emotion in the faint sound of the zither!

Beneath the Builder Tree.

The immortals and monks could not help but be immersed in Qiu Siluo’s zither music. For a moment, they forgot where they were and could not help but reminisce about the past with different expressions.

Images flashed through MO Qing’s mind.

In Avici, she suffered immense grievances and was bullied and humiliated. However, a purple-robed man with a silver mask suddenly appeared and said something to her.

“If there are people in the world who slander, bully, humiliate, laugh at, look down on, degrade or hate you, there’s no need for you to endure or explain yourself. Just kill them.”

A faint smile appeared on MO Qing’s face when she recalled that.

Yun Zhu recalled that back in Avici, a refined scholar carried her and escaped.

There were only a few layers of clothes between the two of them and it was inevitable that there would be some friction and contact as he sprinted.

Yun Zhu lowered her head slightly and blushed.

Shi Wunian had a conflicted expression.

Sword Immortal Yue Hua seemed to have recalled something as his expression darkened and his arms trembled slightly.

The Perfected Immortals and Arhats were touched by the sound of Qiu Siluo’s zither and fell into reminiscence, recalling the most unforgettable scenes of their lives.

Some of them were in tears while others were delighted.

Some were melancholic while others were smug.

Some of them were dejected while others were invigorated.

There was sadness, joy, sorrow, resentment, anger and frustration…

The seven emotions and six desires were all within.

Although Meng Yao’s zither sound was still present, it was as though everyone could no longer hear it.

Even Meng Yao herself fell into some sort of reminiscence. Her eyes were bloodshot and she had a sorrowful expression as a bead-sized tear fell from the corner of her eye.

Piak!

The tear fell onto the sound of her ancient zither.

Although the sound seemed weak, it shocked Meng Yao.

Her fingers could not control their strength and with a bang, a zither string snapped!

Her fingertips were cut and blood seeped out.

That sound woke the immortals and monks up one after another.

It was only then that everyone realized what had happened.

When they were unprepared earlier on, they were completely immersed in Qiu Siluo’s song and were affected by the emotions of the song!

Even her opponent, Meng Yao, was not spared! Victory was decided in this zither competition!

“I-I was defeated?”

Meng Yao murmured in disbelief, unable to accept the reality before her.

Today’s defeat was a huge blow to her.

This meant that from now on, she was not worthy of the title of the Zither Immortal!

All the glory she had once obtained would vanish into thin air.

As a peak Perfected Immortal, she lost to a Grade 5 Heaven Immortal. This matter would spread through the Heavenly World within a few days.

At that time, she would become the joke of the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain.

What the Martial Dao Prime Body did was to defeat Meng Yao in her specialty.

This was a devastating blow to Meng Yao’s Dao Heart.

This was even more powerful than suppressing her directly in a head-on battle.

Meng Yao sat on the spot dejectedly with a lost gaze as an ancient zither with a snapped string fell casually beside her.

The Martial Dao Prime Body leaped down from Heavenly Wolf and patted the latter, indicating for him to carry Qiu Siluo back to the Fiend Domain first.

Heavenly Wolf sensed that the Martial Dao Prime Body might make a huge move and was afraid that he would be implicated. He could not wait to leave and ran to Qiu Siluo’s side hurriedly.

Jun Yu looked at the Martial Dao Prime Body with a strong fighting spirit condensed in her eyes. She removed the Astral Chessboard on her back and said in a deep voice, “Desolate Martial of the Fiend Domain, I respect you for your guts. Against the paragons of the Perfected Immortal and Arhat Rankings of two domains, you even dared to cross the Immortal Fiend Abyss.” “Now, I’ll give you a chance as well. A chance for us to fight fairly!”

“The Perfected Immortal and Arhat Rankings of the two domains?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body raised his head slightly and looked at the two bedazzling ranking lists that hung high above the Builder Tree, saying indifferently, “In my eyes, your two ranking lists are nothing but jokes.”

Before his sentence was finished, the Martial Dao Prime Body merely raised his hand slightly without making any moves.

Shing!

Accompanied by an ear-piercing sound, the Perfected Immortal and Arhat Rankings that hovered above the Builder Tree were torn into two by a powerful external force!

Two torn ranking lists floated down slowly and the light emitted by the names of the Perfected Immortals on them gradually dimmed.

“Wha—”

The cultivators were enraged!

That action could no longer be considered as a provocation—it was a tight slap on their faces!

In front of them, the Perfected Immortal and Arhat Rankings were torn apart!

To Desolate Martial, the two ranking lists were merely jokes?

Those words clearly showed that he did not take the paragons of the two domains seriously! “How arrogant, fiend!”

“Audacious! ”

“Desolate Martial, the blood feud of thousands of Perfected Immortals in the Jade Firmament Immortal Domain has to be repaid with blood!”

The blood of the immortals and monks surged. Even though they were afraid of Desolate Martial’s notorious reputation, they couldn’t care less at that moment and many people stood out.

This time round, Sword Immortal Yue Hua was extremely smart and did not say anything.

He could vaguely sense something.

Right from the beginning, Desolate Martial of the Fiend Domain had not even looked at him.

However, he felt goosebumps all over, as though a calamity was about to descend at any moment!

If not for his dignity, he would have left this place right away!

The Martial Dao Prime Body could not find an excuse to target Sword Immortal

Yue Hua and was in no hurry.

He was not only here today for Meng Yao and Sword Immortal Yue Hua.

“Desolate Martial.”

Right then, Shi Wunian spoke and asked slowly, “From what I know, the Hell Suppression Tripod is in your hands right now?”

“And if it is?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body asked without even looking at Shi Wunian.

Shi Wunian took out a Zen Staff from his storage bag and said in a deep voice, “The Hell Suppression Tripod is a sacred item of the Buddhist monasteries and must not be leaked. If you refuse to hand it over, don’t blame the monks of the Buddhist monasteries for working together to suppress you!”

“That’s right!”

Yun Mubai shouted as well, “There’s no need to insist on having one-on-one fights with fiends of the Fiend Domain. Everyone, let’s attack together and kill this fiend for the sake of righteousness!”

The Martial Dao Prime Body was expressionless.

The immortals and monks on the other end merely wanted to group up and attack him. Yet, they had to dig out a dignified excuse for them to do so.

That was perfect.. He could kill Sword Immortal Yue Hua through the chaos without having to find a reason as well!
