Chapter 1725 - 785: Master Zi, Where Are You?

Chapter 1725: Chapter 785: Master Zi, Where Are You?

Ye Lingyue cultivated the Power of Heaven and Earth, and with her strength, she had long since reached the verge of the Heaven and Earth Tribulation Sixth Layer.

She had never taken the Advanced Divine Power Liquid to break through earlier because she wanted to choose a suitable moment for the breakthrough.

After this Alliance Hierarch mission was issued, Ye Lingyue felt it was about time to break through; otherwise, once in the Demon World, it would be difficult to contend with opponents on the level of Demon King or even Demon Emperor.

Originally, she had planned to go into seclusion and break through before departure, but Yue Mei’s strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, forcing her to change her plans at the last minute.

With a Sub-God Level Divine Beast Essence plus Yue Mei at the Peak of Small Divine Power Realm, she had to go all out.

The moment the Divine Power Liquid entered, the Primordial Power in Ye Lingyue’s Dantian rapidly swelled.

Massive amounts of Power of Heaven and Earth surged in from all directions, converging toward Ye Lingyue’s Dantian.

And between Heaven and Earth, the tribulation cloud seemed to sense that vigorous, newborn Heaven and Earth Divine Power, gathering above the Fengyun Platform.

"Could that be a tribulation cloud!"

Below the Fengyun Platform, Alliance Leader Ning and the others watching couldn’t help but turn pale with shock.

No one had expected that the team leader of Huangquan Team, who had never awakened the Power of Reincarnation, would suddenly break through in this very battle today!

All present were people of broad experience and knowledge, yet not a single one had ever seen a tribulation cloud of this color and scale.

Generally speaking, when a Martial Artist or Alchemist breaks through in cultivation, it will trigger a Heaven and Earth anomaly.

The tribulation cloud is merely one kind of Heaven and Earth anomaly, not the highest grade; but most tribulation clouds are five-colored, symbolizing the Power of Reincarnation Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth.

Yet the tribulation cloud before them was black and white, two colors; not only was the color strange, the momentum was immense—within a radius of a full mile, the sky was completely drowned.

Not to mention the Demon Hunters of the Jiu Provinces Main Camp, even Ye Lingyue herself was greatly startled.

Tsk, she’d known the Heaven and Earth Tribulations at each stage of cultivating the Power of Heaven and Earth were freakish.

But Ye Lingyue hadn’t expected this Heaven and Earth Tribulation to appear in such a manner.

Right now, she had no way to go all out to break through the shackles of the tribulation cloud, but it was already too late for regret.

In an instant, sand flew and stones were hurled; the entire Jiu Provinces Main Camp was like being hit by a tornado.

On the ground, everyone felt it was difficult even to open their eyes.

On the Fengyun Platform, Yue Mei, who controlled the Ancient Phoenix Essence, also showed a momentary stir of emotion when she saw the tribulation cloud overhead.

But immediately after, a look of contempt appeared.

So what if she broke through? Leaving aside that Ye Lingyue hadn’t broken through yet, even if she did, she’d only be at Small Divine Power Realm.

This woman was foolish too; for the sake of victory, she didn’t even know what Spiritual Medicine she’d just taken, trying to force a breakthrough.

Any Martial Artist knows that the instant of breakthrough is often the most dangerous; facing both the tribulation cloud and Ancient Phoenix Shaking the Moon at the same time was undoubtedly adding frost to snow—there was only one path, and that was death.

The Sword Waterfall poured down, blotting out the sky, and at that moment, a deafening rumble was heard.

Between the clouds, crackling sounds erupted as massive black-and-white intertwined bolts of lightning roared and howled downward.

The lightning was so numerous it formed a Thunderfall, crashing toward the top of Ye Lingyue’s skull.

Just then, Ye Lingyue suddenly felt movement from the Heaven and Earth Bracelet in her hand.

The Heaven and Earth Bracelet, which had always been tightly clasped around her arm, seemed to sense something.

With a flash of flowing light, the small Heaven and Earth Bracelet flew toward that Gu Huang.

The Black and White Thunderfall that had been chasing Ye Lingyue abruptly changed direction, blasting toward that Gu Huang.

Rumble—

A heaven-shaking, earth-shattering explosion.

In an instant, the entire Fengyun Platform was blown into fragments.

Yue Mei’s eyes went bloodshot, watching as that Gu Huang was struck by the Thunderfall.

No matter how mighty the Sub-God Beast’s might was, no matter how formidable its Divine Power Skills, in the face of the boundless tribulation cloud it was like an ant trying to shake a tree, utterly insignificant.

The Sword Waterfall, whose offensive had been so astonishing, turned to dust in a heartbeat.

The Ancient Phoenix Essence suddenly collapsed and scattered.

The Heaven and Earth Bracelet flew back to Ye Lingyue’s side again and, without deviating in the slightest, slid back onto Ling Yue’s hand.

Light flickered in Ye Lingyue’s eyes; half in joy, half in realization, she glanced at the Heaven and Earth Bracelet in her hand.

This is?

Ye Lingyue’s Divine Sense stirred and dove into the Heaven and Earth Bracelet; she discovered that inside the bracelet, there was a strand of unfamiliar Power of Heaven and Earth.

This strand of Power of Heaven and Earth was not Ye Lingyue’s own Power of Heaven and Earth?

The bracelet had been given by Master Zi; needless to say, that trace of Power of Heaven and Earth inside must have been left behind by her master.

No wonder Master Zi had been unable to take disciples for so many years—turns out he, like her, cultivated a unique Power of Heaven and Earth.

Most likely, the tribulation cloud mistakenly assumed that the trace of Power of Heaven and Earth inside the Heaven and Earth Bracelet was the one undergoing tribulation, and so it went after the bracelet.

The tribulation cloud was fooled, and the Gu Huang became the scapegoat.

How could a Spiritual Artifact possess such spiritual intelligence, or was someone secretly controlling the artifact?

Ye Lingyue looked at the Heaven and Earth Bracelet on her wrist, then subconsciously scanned the surroundings.

"Master Zi? Is that you?"

She glanced about in confusion; aside from the drifting, unstable clouds around her, there was nothing else, nowhere to be seen was Master Zi’s figure.

Yue Mei’s face was ashen; she felt as if the Primordial Power in her body had been sucked dry in an instant.

The clouds dispersed, and the sky returned to clarity.

That damned Ye Lingyue had actually used her Gu Huang’s power to resolve this tribulation cloud.

Unable to find Master Zi’s figure, Ye Lingyue felt a faint disappointment in her heart.

But the next instant, her expression brightened; after the tribulation cloud dissipated, the Power of Heaven and Earth in her body was more than twice as abundant as before—Small Divine Power Realm, breakthrough!

Yue Mei’s expression was listless, while Ye Lingyue was full of vigor; in the span of a moment, the situation had reversed.

"You, what are you trying to do?"

Yue Mei’s voice trembled as she saw Ye Lingyue’s piercing gaze bearing down on her.

"Yue Mei, you stabbed fifty or sixty wounds into my cousin’s body. Today, I won’t go overboard—let’s round it up and return you a hundred."

After Ye Liuyun was bought back, Ye Lingyue treated her.

She discovered dozens of wounds, large and small, all over Ye Liuyun’s body; one could well imagine the inhuman torment she had suffered.

Ye Lingyue wouldn’t kill Yue Mei easily; she wanted Yue Mei to taste the suffering Ye Liuyun had endured.

"You, don’t even think about it. You can’t kill me, I admit defeat! Chen Mu, save me, quickly!"

Terrified out of her wits, Yue Mei no longer dared to fight; with a leap, she jumped down from the ruined Fengyun Platform.

Ye Lingyue merely smiled; before Yue Mei landed, she flicked out a finger.

The Ghost Sect Thirteen Needles were quietly unleashed; after breaking through to Small Divine Power Realm, the number of her Ghost Needles had abruptly risen to over a hundred. The Ghost Needles, carrying Evil Power, silently pierced into Yue Mei’s back.

Yue Mei’s face turned deathly pale in an instant, her body violently shuddering; she felt as if more than a hundred ants were gnawing at her flesh.

At this moment, she saw Chen Mu.

Chen Mu flew forward, arms opening as if to catch her.

Yue Mei was overjoyed, but then she realized Chen Mu’s gaze wasn’t on her; he slowly raised his head and looked toward Ye Lingyue.

A faint smile lifted the corner of Chen Mu’s mouth; at the precise instant when he was about to catch Yue Mei, his foot shifted half an inch.

Awkwardly, Yue Mei fell right past him, crashing heavily to the ground.
