Chapter 178 - : I Mind It
Chapter 178: Chapter 178: I Mind It
“Heaven, can you allow me some buffer time and let me get ready again…”
There was a subservient expression on Chen Chen’s face. In his opinion, bowing down to Heaven was not embarrassing at all.
The talk about defying heavens was just a casual remark, it obviously wasn’t to be taken seriously.
However, before he could finish, a half-golden thunderbolt fell straight onto his head and caused him to stumble while his body was charred.
“You evil Heaven! I’ve already admitted to being a coward, can’t you do me a favor and not embarrass me!?!” Chen Chen cursed loudly.
At the same time, his Omni Divine Blade darted out with a whistling sound and he soon pointed his sword to the sky.
Since he would be receiving the same treatment regardless of whether he cursed or not, he might as well curse out loud.
Boom!
After he did, seven or eight golden thunderbolts landed and the entire mountain was blasted into dust!
The bunch of demons guarding the mountain were dumbfounded when they saw this scene. ‘Has the Black Pig King already become so terrifying?’
‘Not only has he spent four hours transcending the tribulation, he even blasted the entire mountain!’
Seeing the gaze in the eyes of the demons, the dog spirit humphed coldly and said, “The Black Pig King is originally a heaven-defying demon. Is it surprising that he’s going through such a tribulation? We just have to wait here, Lord Black Pig will definitely return with victory.”
Despite saying so, the dog spirit was uncertain but the Thunder Tribulation… He could barely even resist the aura.
…
The Thunder Tribulation lasted for another four hours.
Not only had the mountain been blasted, there was also a massive pit that was formed in the ground in the original area.
The group of demons had long retreated to dozens of kilometers away but no demons dared to come close at all. They were all shivering and waiting for Lao Hei to return.
They were not being cowardly but rather, the golden thunderbolt had given them a huge emotional trauma. Some of the demons who were at the peak of the Core Formation realm had secretly decided to stay at their current realm and never enter the Nascent Soul realm.
The Tribulation Transcendence was… really too terrifying.
…
The Tribulation Clouds dispersed and a golden pig was continuously digging in the middle of the huge pit while cursing, “Chen Chen, fine, I’ll let you continue boasting. You don’t believe it huh? Look, there’s no one left!”
However, Lao Hei could not help but cry because he had been digging for a long time but he still hadn’t seen Chen Chen anywhere in sight.
“Look at yourself, what are you cultivating? You might as well learn from me and muddle through life. Ah, if you die, how do I explain it to your parents…”
Lao Hei wept and finally found something soft. Soon, a black arm emerged from the soil.
The outstretched arm was straight and all four of his fingers were pressed together, with only his middle finger pointing to the sky, Lao Hei did not know what that meant. He just had a vague feeling that it might represent an unwillingness to succumb.
That made him feel a little sour.
“Chen Chen, you fool, if that triangular thing really works, would that person have killed you?”
As he spoke, he plowed the soil more and more rapidly, and a moment later, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly called Little Yellow, which then came out from the Little Carefree Immortal Palace.
With the help of Little Yellow, they carefully dug out a dark figure from the soil.
It was unknown if the figure was dead or alive but it was lying motionlessly on the ground with his middle finger pointed to the sky.
Seeing this Little Yellow whimpered a few times before scratching its own middle finger for a while. Some ginger juice then seeped out and dripped on the figure.
The two demons then gently carried the figure into the Little Carefree Immortal Palace and soaked it in the spiritual spring water.
…
Tens of thousands of kilometers away.
In front of the Tianyun Clan.
Xia Xishuang looked up at the nearly 1,000 demons above her head with an extremely cold expression.
The leader of those demons was Hu Lian of the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan, the Demon Emperor who was famed in the western border.
The demon was extremely cunning, vicious, and evil. It was unexpected of her to be in the State of Jin.
“Tsk tsk, who am I seeing? The famous human who has an innate spirit body, Xia Xishuang. How come she’s hiding in this small clan? Is she afraid of death too? Hahaha!”
Hu Lianwas dressed in white, with six tails dancing slightly behind her and making her look extremely demonic. There were ten Nascent Soul realm Demon Kings behind her who were all from big clans with noble bloodlines. None of them was ordinary.
Xiao Wuyou, who was below, was completely hopeless.
An Essence Soul realm Demon Emperor plus ten Nascent Soul realm Demon Kings were definitely too powerful for the Tianyun Clan to stop with their current strength. The only thing to be thankful about was that Chen Chen was not in the Tianyun Clan and could at least carry on the bloodline.
“Envoy, the Tianyun Clan has implicated you. Feel free to break through later, you don’t have to take care of us.”
Xiao Wuyou looked at Xia Xishuang, his eyes full of an apologetic gaze
Xia Xishuang shook her head slightly and then looked at Hu Lian who was in the sky. She said coldly, “Demon Emperor Hu Lian, this place is guarded by me, it’s not where you should be.”
Hu Lian covered her mouth and laughed lightly, her eyes full of contempt. “I came to the State of Jin originally to find a sinful seed, but I never thought I would come across such an interesting person as you, Xia Xishuang. You are a Nascent Soul realm cultivator and you want me to retreat? Do you think that the Western border demons are the same as those fools in the Northern border who are just a bunch of weaklings?”
Xia Xishuang did not say anything but Xiao He who was behind her, stood out and pointed at Hu Lian and scolded, “Psht! That’s them having self-awareness! Fox Spirit, if you don’t retreat today, my Senior Sister will teach you a lesson and let you know the power of the Breaking Dawn Sword!”
“Hahaha, I’m so scared! I’m going to learn today what kind of divine sword Breaking Dawn is, so much that it allowed a female Nascent Soul realm cultivator to be so arrogant even till this day!”
Hu Lian laughed and her expression suddenly became cold and stern. With a fierce wave of her hand, thousands of demons behind her launched an attack at the Tianyun Clan’s clan-protecting array.
“Senior Sister, what should we do? This fox spirit is very cunning, this probably won’t work on her!” Xiao He saw this and immediately became anxious as her arrogance disappeared in an instant and was replaced by panic.
Xia Xishuang did not answer and instead took a step out of the formation to go outside. Using her hands as a sword, she released majestic Sword Qi and fought three or four Nascent Soul realm Demon Kings.
Xiao Wuyou saw this and hurriedly opened an opening in the formation. There were six or seven Nascent Soul realm powerhouses among the State of Jin cultivators, coupled with the remaining disciples of the Haoran Sword Clan. Surprisingly, all ten demon kings were fended off.
The other demons attacked in a flurry, but they could not even shake the clan’s protection formation.
“What a pathetic light. How amusing.”
Hu Lian sneered when she saw that and her six tails were soon waved violently while the Essence Soul realm powerhouse’s pressure immediately swept outwards.
Boom!
With a loud sound, the Tianyun Clan’s clan protection formation broke, and several Nascent Soul realm powerhouses were shaken by the strong force that sent them flying hundreds of meters away.
Seeing that thousands of demons were about to rush inside the Tianyun Clan and launch a massacre on them, Xia Xishuang gripped the hilt of her sword that was hanging on her back.
“Demon Emperor Hu Lian, I don’t want to fight with you, don’t force me.”
“So what if I force you? Do you want to give up your personal treasure and your Essence Soul realm Dao for this bunch of small fries? If that’s the case, I’ll accept it even if you kill me. Your status in the human rice is much higher than mine in the demon race.”
Hu Lian sneered with an indifferent gaze.
Xia Xishuang had been nurturing the Breaking Dawn Sword for 17 years and she thought that she just had to wait a few years for the nurturing to be completed. She would then be able to own a powerful treasure of her own.
Be it for Xia Xishuang, or for the entire human race, it was definitely much more significant than the State of Jin.
Xia Xishuang could not use the Breaking Dawn Sword now, be it in public or in private.
Seeing that the group of powerful Golden Core realm cultivators were about to enter the Tianyun Clan, Xia Xishuang’s hand trembled, and an inch of the Breaking Dawn Sword was revealed!
Its supreme sharpness and glint were shining bright like the sun. Rays of light were reflected off of the blade in all directions. At the same time, a powerful Sword Qi was emanated and it rushed in the forefront of dozens of Golden Core realm demons in the blink of an eye.
“Senior Sister! How could you…”
Seeing this, Xia Xishuang rushed to the spot behind Xia Xishuang.
She was not only Xia Xishuang’s junior sister, she was also her servant. Seeing that Xia Xishuang had drawn her sword, her heart was full of anxiety.
The sword contained seventeen years of Xia Xishuang’s efforts and it was her beloved sword which she had seldom touched.
“I’m a man of my word. Since I’ve promised Chen Chen to guard the Tianyun Clan, I have to keep to my word.”
Xia Xishuang’s face turned slightly pale but her tone was calm.
Hu Lian, who was in the sky, saw the peerless light and her expression changed slightly.
The Breaking Dawn Sword had the ability to deter the demons at the border. Indeed, it lived up to its expectations. Although she called the demons stupid, she knew of the existence of the Immortal Demonic Phoenix clan that was famous for being fearless towards death.
Looking at Xia Xishuang’s calm face, Hu Lian’s mind was filled with various thoughts.
“She must be scaring me. How can she give up on the Essence Soul realm Great Dao just like that!?! She killed dozens of my subordinates today. If I get fooled by her, how can I have the cheek to lead all the demons in the future!?!”
Thinking of this, Hu Lian’s expression turned menacing and she hollered furiously, “Kill everyone here, don’t leave a single one behind!”
She didn’t dare to force Xia Xishuang, but she dared to kill the people of the Tianyun Clan.
As long as Xia Xishuang took the initiative to withdraw today, she would be considered to have won the psychological game!
“Senior Sister, let’s go! You’ve done your best…” Xiao He already sounded like she was sobbing.
The others might not know but she was well aware of how much Xia Xishuang loved the sword that she had brought around for 17 years. As soon as the sword was unsheathed, it had already shaken the foundation of the sword.
Xia Xishuang shook his head while her lips trembled slightly. Her voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible, as if she was talking to herself.
“His parents are here, if I don’t do my best today, then he will definitely be resentful towards me in the future.”
Hearing these words, Xiao He was instantly dumbfounded. She found it unbelievable that Xia Xishuang was still thinking about such things at such a juncture.
“Senior Sister! Don’t be silly! You are the supreme elite of humans! Why do you have to care about whether he’ll be resentful towards you or not? Besides, he may not even like you! Let’s hurry up and go!”
Xiao He tried to pull Xia Xishuang away forcibly, but just as she touched Xia Xishuang, she was shaken away by a powerful force.
At the same time, thousands of demons in the sky had already rushed into the range of the Tianyun Clan.
Xia Xishuang ignored those demons but she was glowering at Hu Lian fiercely.
A breeze blew by and her green silk robe fluttered, making her figure look a bit forlorn.
In the next moment, she smiled in relief.
‘Can I not care?’
‘I don’t think so…’
“I care about him.”
After she murmured that, the startling sound of a sword roaring sounded and Breaking Dawn instantly darted out of the sheath with a morbidly white light before propelling straight through the sky!
Clang!
In that instant, the light of the sun was overshadowed by the dazzling light of the sword that seemed to be the only thing left in the world!
Sensing the terrifying fluctuations, Hu Lian’s eyes were full of shock and bewilderment!
‘This woman is a fool!’
That was the last thought that came to her mind.
With a loud sound, the Tianyun Clan’s clan protection formation broke, and several Nascent Soul realm powerhouses were shaken by the strong force that sent them flying hundreds of meters away.
