SFS Chapter 71 Li Lan Makes a Move
Chapter 71 Li Lan Makes a Move
The sacrificial burning formation has been broken, and a new mysterious formation has emerged. Amidst the flowing light, Lin Ruoxue stands atop the entire formation, like a goddess transcending the mortal world.
But this goddess was now terrifying.
"What... exactly do you want to do?"
Elder Gu spoke in a trembling voice:
"Do you know that once the Demon Realm breaks through the Abyss Realm, the entire Immortal Realm will suffer a great calamity, unspeakable horrors may reappear, all the immortals in heaven will perish, and you will become a sinner for all eternity!"
"Do you think they are still the saints they once were? No, they have already come into contact with the source and will all become strange beings, including you. In the end, you will also be trapped in the strange!"
But Lin Ruoxue only gave him a cold look, "You keep calling the remnants of the saints demons, yet you turn a blind eye to the true demon sitting on the throne of the immortal realm."
"It's not surprising. To be willing to sacrifice the entire Abyss Realm to protect your peace, you are essentially just like that Supreme Immortal Venerable—selfish, treacherous, and cunning!"
"Do you think you're qualified to judge who is a sinner for all time?"
Seeing that Lin Ruoxue could not dissuade him, Elder Gu was extremely helpless and could only let out a bitter laugh.
But Shen Xingyue, who was standing next to her, suddenly sneered:
"You speak so eloquently, as if you were a selfless and righteous person, but what you are about to do is no different from what we are doing?"
"You intend to take the souls of all living beings in this abyss realm to feed that demonic soul, is that not it?"
She was quite perceptive and had already noticed some clues!
Upon hearing this, Li Yue, the Sun and Moon Swords, Ku Jue, and the others instantly changed their expressions and stared at Lin Ruoxue.
Lin Ruoxue did not deny it, and said calmly, "I borrowed their life force for a while. Once Mingzun crosses the Abyss Realm and enters the Immortal Realm, he can return their life force."
It was as if they were describing something trivial.
"Borrow some life force..."
Li Daoling, Feng Moping, and the others standing nearby suddenly realized: "That's right, the Mingzun has already passed away, and the demonic soul is just his lingering thoughts and remnant soul... He still needs to move from death to life!"
"Only those who have cultivated the True Dragon Technique, possessing boundless vitality and even condensing the faith of the world, can become the furnace for the return of the demonic soul... The demonic soul needs to possess the True Dragon!"
Possessing the body of a true dragon!
Li Yue's expression changed drastically in an instant, a look of fear flashing in her beautiful eyes. She wasn't afraid of death... but, possession?
At this moment, Li Lan finally understood everything!
Why did Lin Ruoxue, who was deeply devoted to her younger sister, suddenly sever ties with her family after returning to the capital and instead seek refuge with Li Guan...?
All of this was intentional, merely to gain Li Guan's trust. She even collaborated with the Little Prince of Bei Hu and others, deliberately helping Li Guan collect items such as the Mysterious Maiden's Yin Marrow to help him refine the True Dragon Technique—she was treating Li Guan like a pig!
Once you've tamed them, feed them to the demon soul!
She just didn't expect that in the end, it wasn't Li Guan who became the true dragon, but Li Yue.
But it doesn't matter, whoever becomes the true dragon, the ending is the same now.
"If you seize a body now, it won't just be the true dragon that suffers, but also the countless living beings behind it. At best, their souls will be damaged and they will become mentally impaired; at worst, their spiritual consciousness will be completely destroyed, turning them into walking corpses, or even causing them to die directly! In the end, what you are doing is no different from what we are doing!"
A mocking glint flashed in Shen Xingyue's eyes, but she immediately sighed and silently closed her eyes.
"We have been framed by a treacherous scheme and have become sinners in the celestial realm. It is too late now; we are powerless to change it. Witch, do as you please!"
Even if we understand everything now, what's the point?
The others were also utterly despondent, their faces filled with sorrow.
Lin Ruoxue calmly turned her head and glanced at Li Yue, Kujue, the Sun and Moon Twin Swords, and others in the furnace of the great formation.
The formation she secretly set up was based on the Sacrifice Burning Formation, which reversed Yin and Yang and inverted the Heavenly Stems. Therefore, the people who served as the furnace in the Sacrifice Burning Formation are still the key to the formation.
Previously, they were the fuel for the burning of the Great Dao; now they are the blood and gourds that feed the demon souls. No matter who lives in the Great Array, their fate is actually no different!
"I will remember you all, and in the future..."
She spoke softly as if she wanted to make a promise, but as soon as the words left her mouth, she shook her head, feeling that there was no need to be so hypocritical!
What's done is done; there's no need to defend myself. I can make amends later if the opportunity arises...
If she had no other choice, she would have no regrets about committing this atrocity!
She formed a hand seal, and light shone through it. The array slowly began to operate. The people in the cauldron, having just escaped one danger's den, were now plunged into another, once again enveloped by the feeling of death, their life essence rapidly draining away!
"No...I don't want to die, I don't want to die!"
Li Huan screamed in agony!
"We... have fallen to this state, with no control over our own lives, like ants!"
"The Celestial Realm treats us like firewood, and the Demon Realm still treats us like firewood... Is being born into the Abyss Realm a sin?!"
"If I ever become an immortal, I will make both the immortal realm and the demon realm pay the price!"
The twin swords of the sun and moon, along with geniuses like Shi Zhong and Shi Hao, were now in utter despair and fury, trembling as they cursed and swore!
They were once top geniuses in the Abyss Realm, surrounded by admirers and held in high esteem. Now, however, they have been trampled into the dust.
No one cared about their voices, their resistance, or their dignity.
"Brother-in-law!"
Lin Ruobing was extremely anxious and wanted to rush into the furnace, but she had already been excluded from the formation and could no longer return.
"Sister, you can't do this... Brother-in-law and Li Yue are good people, they are innocent, and all the people in the world are innocent too, you can't do this!"
She was almost in tears: "Sister, I don't want you to end up like this."
"Innocent? Who isn't innocent?"
Lin Ruoxue sighed softly and said, "This is fate."
The formation was fully activated.
The flames from the sacrificial offering had dissipated, and black mist instantly spread, dark clouds looming over the city as if to crush it, and everyone felt a bone-chilling cold.
On the Storm Emperor's Throne, the Mingzun's demonic soul slowly rose.
As the formation activated, Li Yue inexplicably rose into the air, all the life force of the world gathered on her body, and a pale golden dragon shadow swirled around her.
The demon soul rose from the Storm Throne.
The possession is about to begin!
Everyone was filled with grief, and all resistance and insults became meaningless.
Extinction is imminent.
"teacher……"
In the final moments of his life, Li Yue subconsciously turned around and glanced at Li Lan. Even in his dying moments, he showed no fear, but instead smiled radiantly.
"In his life, Li Yue only learned what great good and great evil were, and what right and wrong were, after meeting his teacher."
"To see the teacher is to see the Way."
"As my teacher said, 'If I hear the truth in the morning, I can die content in the evening.'"
"Therefore, Le Viet has no regrets in this life."
"Teacher... if there is an afterlife, I wish to follow you again, to listen to your teachings and learn from your example!"
She closed her eyes, welcoming death!
And within the array furnace.
At this moment, Li Lan couldn't help but sigh softly, then suddenly turned to look at Feng Moping and said:
"Senior Feng, I need your help."
Feng Moping stood slumped to the side, unable to even hold her sword, but she still nodded:
"You said."
"Please, Senior Feng, take Li Yue in and accept her as your disciple."
Upon hearing this, Feng Moping sighed, "We are both on the verge of death, so what's the point of this?"
Li Lan said, "Please grant Li Lan's request, Senior Feng. If you do so, all past karmic debts will be wiped clean."
Use the favor that Master Feng Moping owed his ancestor Li Qinghong to settle this matter!
Now that things have come to this, in such a desperate situation, he has no choice but to risk his life. But what he can't let go of are Lin Ruobing and Li Yue.
Lin Ruoxue is connected to the saints of the Demon Realm. With her around, Lin Ruobing will be safe. Even if there is a war between immortals and demons in the future, she will have someone to rely on, so Li Lan is not worried.
Only Le Yue.
Therefore, we seek refuge for Le Viet...
Feng Moping looked puzzled, but nodded nonetheless: "Okay, I agree."
Thank you.
After Li Lan finished speaking, she suddenly stood up!
He stood up, and everyone around him was instantly shocked!
"what?"
"How can he stand up!"
"impossible!"
Everyone was utterly incredulous.
At this moment, the great formation was reversed, and everyone within it was controlled. Even Elder Gu, Feng Moping, and other experts from the Immortal Realm were unable to move. How could Li Lan possibly stand up?!
Could it be that the formation couldn't control him?
Even Lin Ruoxue, who was in charge of the formation, frowned suddenly and stared at Li Lan with surprise and uncertainty in her eyes!
