Chapter 380 Archive 8
Time flies, and soon the centennial competition will arrive.
Before heading to Zixiao Gate, Ci Gui called Yun Qingyi over again.
"Master, is there anything I can do for you?" This time, Ci Gui only called her, and Yun Qingyi noticed that Cao Chang Le was also there.
Cao Changle walked forward slowly, a leaf that looked neither like grass nor flower floating in his palm, very similar to the small mark on Yun Qingyi's forehead.
"Qingyi, the sect leader just said that you are already in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm."
Yun Qingyi: "What's wrong?"
Cao Changle: "Do you still remember when you suddenly fainted on Mingzhou Island back then?"
Yun Qingyi was slightly taken aback. Although it was only eight years ago, which is only a short moment for cultivators, she still felt as if a long time had passed.
At the time, Cao Changle seemed unwilling to tell her what was wrong. Yun Qingyi looked up at him and asked, "Are you willing to tell me now?"
Cao Changle nodded. "I promised Qingyi back then that I would tell you after you reached the Nascent Soul stage. I didn't expect that when you came back, you had not only reached the Nascent Soul stage but also reached the late stage." Cao Changle couldn't help but chuckle and tease, "I almost thought I wouldn't make it in time."
Yun Qingyi: "What will happen if we can't make it?"
Cao Changle: "Nothing much, it's just... I won't be breaking through anymore."
Yun Qingyi's eyes widened: "This is nothing??" Could it be that the reason her cultivation has been stagnating these past few days is because of this?
She thought she had encountered the first bottleneck in her cultivation journey.
Cao Changle: "Alright, it's just that I won't be breaking through for the time being."
Yun Qingyi felt something was off, so she asked, "How long is 'temporary'?"
Cao Changle: "No more, no less, a hundred years."
Yun Qingyi: "?"
Yun Qingyi: "I find it hard to imagine why you are so calm?"
Cao Changle: "If you're not calm, it seems like being nervous won't help."
Yun Qingyi remained silent, speechless. No, was this right?
The voice belonging to Ci Gui slowly rang out: "Alright, Chang Le, we don't have much time left, let's begin."
"What start?" Yun Qingyi looked at her master and Cao Changle with some confusion.
Neither of them answered. Yun Qingyi saw Cao Changle transform into a stream of light, merging with the leaf in his hand, and instantly striking the mark on her brow.
In an instant, she felt the mark between her eyebrows rapidly burning hot, and then everything went black, plunging her into darkness.
……
"Kill!"
"kill!"
"Don't let them get away!"
……
What's that sound...?
Where am I?
Yun Qingyi felt that it was very noisy around her, with the sounds of weapons clashing, spears and halberds clashing, mixed with roars and screams.
"Help! We can't win! Run!"
"Deserters shall be executed!"
The sound of the red-tasseled spear cutting through the air was fleeting. Something seemed to fall to the ground and roll to her side. Yun Qingyi frowned as a few drops of rusty-smelling liquid splashed onto her face.
Blood?
Yun Qingyi struggled with all her might, and the things in front of her gradually became clear, but the moment she saw them clearly, she was completely shocked.
Smoke and fire rose everywhere, countless wrecks lay on the ground, and vast swathes of spiritual and demonic energy collided, creating intense flames.
She slowly stood up, and the soldiers rode their spirit horses straight past her. In her astonishment, she turned around and saw her own corpse on the ground.
"Am I dead?" Yun Qingyi was confused for a moment, but quickly recovered. "No." She quickly recalled several memories. Not long ago, she was with Cao Changle and her master.
Thinking back on everything that happened, could it be that Master and Cao Changle deliberately sent me to this place?
So... what is this place...?
Yun Qingyi looked up and gazed into the distance through the thousands of soldiers.
There was a dense, dark mass there, but without exception, they all had a pair of green eyes.
Wild and untamed demon race.
