I Come to Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 218 - 33: Wu Yao’s Gift (3/3)

"Big brother! You..."

After being thrown away by the Celestial Erosion Monarch once again.

The Third Prince, who was spiraling in mid-air, finally couldn't resist looking back at Huo Ji, who wore a solemn expression.

However, it was precisely at this moment of the Third Prince's distraction.

The Celestial Erosion Monarch on the battlefield suddenly revealed an inexplicable smile.

The darkness that originally shrouded the sky instantly transformed back into light.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, the black and white hues on the Celestial Erosion Monarch twisted, and his whole body split into two.

The black Celestial Erosion Monarch vanished into the shadows, silent and unseen.

The white Celestial Erosion Monarch stood up, assuming a dog-headed human form.

Immediately after, the white Celestial Erosion Monarch charged forward like a bolt of lightning, appearing before the Third Prince in the blink of an eye.

Boom!

When that disproportionately large white hand pressed against the Third Prince's head, a deadly sense of crisis surged into his heart.

The Third Prince couldn't carelessly mind many details.

Instinctively, he twisted his Flood Dragon body, trying to revert to his human form with a smaller impact area.

Simultaneously, a hurried and terrified cry escaped from the Third Prince's mouth.

"Big brother! Father! Save me!"

Unfortunately, what greeted the Third Prince was not the rescue he imagined, but the unrestrained sneer of the white Celestial Erosion Monarch.

"So foolish to not see the truth until now!"

Before the words had faded, the Third Prince's brain suddenly exploded, and his entire dragon form was deeply embedded into the ground by the white Celestial Erosion Monarch.

Due to the unspeakably tragic nature of his death.

Even the white Celestial Erosion Monarch, the orchestrator of this scene, disdainfully shook his hand before casting his gaze toward Huo Ji, who remained motionless in the distance.

"You recognized me? When? How is that possible?"

Unable to move and too afraid to move, Huo Ji lowered his voice, his tone filled with undisguised astonishment.

"From the very beginning, I knew you were behind this chaos."

"After all, those corpses buried under the waterfall, their manner of death was just too obvious..."

"Even if you tried to cover up their cause of death, the way they dried up and died was still too distinctive."

This time, it was not the white Celestial Erosion Monarch who spoke.

Instead, a black Celestial Erosion Monarch slowly emerged from the shadow behind him.

"In order to personally deal with you, I even took on this 'bait' task from that kid..."

"This task was very dangerous, but for you, it was worth it!"

Though similarly dog-headed and human-formed, the black Celestial Erosion Monarch appeared exceptionally ferocious.

Especially those claws, with each finger exuding an astonishingly malevolent aura.

"Guhuo Bird, even if I turn into a Nine Netherworld Fierce Ghost, I will never forget you!"

When the Celestial Erosion Monarch shouted the name "Guhuo Bird," Huo Ji felt no more wishful thinking in his heart.

On the contrary, a fierce glint flashed in Huo Ji's eyes.

He then unhesitatingly punched toward the black Celestial Erosion Monarch behind him.

Boom!

Accompanied by a ground-shattering tremor.

Huo Ji successfully freed himself from the Celestial Erosion Monarch's constraints; however, his face suddenly turned deathly pale.

Seizing this opportunity, the white Celestial Erosion Monarch swiftly stepped forward, expertly delivering a punch to his opponent's face.

Puff!

At the critical moment, the surging Life Essence Qi transformed into [Body-Protecting Gang Qi], timely blocking this fatal blow for Huo Ji.

"Hmm?"

The white Celestial Erosion Monarch, eyes widening in slight surprise, instead of getting angry, laughed and roared.

"Well done, let's see how many punches you can take from me!"

"A thousand years ago, you reincarnated your soul into the mountain people, then incited those ignorant mortals to feast on Wu Yao..."

"A thousand years later today, if I don't smash this incarnation of yours to pieces, I won't dispel my hatred!"

...........................

Yunmeng Marsh, Feilai Peak, Mountain God Temple.

After successfully setting up a great formation capable of concealing the entire Yunmeng Marsh.

Draped in a red fur robe, Li Boyang returned to the Mountain God Temple, gazing up at the Valkyrie enshrined in the grand hall.

"What are you thinking about?"

Having observed Li Boyang for a long time, Xiluo finally couldn't resist asking softly.

Ever since returning to the grand hall, Li Boyang had been staring at the statue of the Huai River Witch, making Xiluo feel a bit creepy.

Especially as he looked, he was tossing the Celestial Destiny Bone Armor.

Knowing Li Boyang well, Xiluo understood that he was divining something, inch by inch locking onto an answer.

"I'm wondering, how exactly did your sister die?"

Upon hearing this, Xiluo first paused, soon followed by an angry, low voice growl.

"Didn't you already know about this?"

"She was betrayed and devoured by her most trusted clansmen."

"Those ignorant mortals, just because of a famine, devoured the 'Witch' who had always led them towards prosperity!"

Turning his head to glance at the angry Xiluo.

Li Boyang was silent for a long time before responding in a helpless tone.

"Do you really believe that?"

"A witch who could know destiny and divine the future, would die for such a ridiculous reason?"

"I admit your sister was naive, but was she really so naive?"

Before Xiluo could refute, Li Boyang suddenly reached up to touch his brow, then slowly opened the Celestial Eye.

"This Celestial Eye of mine came from your sister, from those mountain people of a thousand years ago who feasted on her."

"The mountain people feasted on her flesh and blood, you collected her bones, but what about her soul?"

Under the gaze of Li Boyang's Celestial Eye at his brow.

The always affirmed "truth" by Xiluo suddenly left her stunned.

For some reason, a feeling of unease suddenly arose within Xiluo.

Xiluo instinctively realized that the next words from Li Boyang might shatter one of her perceptions.

"What are you trying to say?"

After a brief hesitation, Xiluo asked with difficulty.

"Do you know? Actually, I don't believe what the Celestial Erosion Monarch previously said."

"Because the Lord of the Netherworld likes to collect extraordinarily gifted souls, he thinks the Huai River Witch's soul would certainly catch His eye."

"This reason is not only absurd, but it doesn't stand up to scrutiny at all."

Pausing slightly, Li Boyang continued.

"Moreover, do you think the Celestial Erosion Monarch you know is someone who would be so certain just for a slim possibility?"

"So certain that He would even single-mindedly choose the 'Path of Yin and Yang', leaving no room for any retreat?"

Blinking blankly, Xiluo instinctively shook her head—the Celestial Erosion Monarch she knew wasn't that reckless.

In fact, except for going berserk over Wu Yao's death in the end. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The Celestial Erosion Monarch always appeared very calm and steady, a true "Intelligent General."

"So isn't it possible that the Celestial Erosion Monarch actually knows where Wu Yao's soul is?"

"He even clearly understands that the 'Path of Yin and Yang' could help him find, even resurrect Wu Yao's soul."

Upon saying this, Li Boyang exhaled deeply, his expression becoming increasingly complex.

"The mountain people feasted on Wu Yao's flesh and blood, thereby gaining the potential to activate the Celestial Eye Divine Power..."

"You collected Wu Yao's bones and have been seeking a suitable heir for the 'Celestial Destiny Bone Armor' for her..."

"Only her soul remains, never finding its resting place."
