This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 921 - 700: Xi Xuexian!_3
Qiu Feng's figure moved, and the abyssal wind that took away all vitality from the world gathered instantly, fiercely sweeping towards Xi Xuexian!
Even though Liang Yi and Su Youyi had obtained the Bodhi Origin, neither of them thought Zuo Yongning would lose, because all of this was still within their acceptable range.
But when Xi Xuexian suddenly betrayed, it was completely beyond their expectations!
Zheng——
The crisp and melodious sound of a sword resonated briefly and then vanished in an instant.
Yet the awe-inspiring storm of Abyssal Wind was sliced in half by a single sword, dissipating helplessly into nothingness.
"You two, do you think I don't exist?"
Chen Hua appeared before Zuo Yongning and Qiu Feng with a cheerful demeanor, seemingly in a good mood.
These two nuisances just cornered him, keeping a simmering fire in his heart, and now they want to make a move when the tables have turned? Wishful thinking, let's see who can laugh last without interference!
The anger in Chen Hua's tone made Gongsun Bai'an and Qiu Feng's faces look extremely unpleasant.
"You've made your own bed... Zuo Yongning, good luck to you."
The same thought arose simultaneously in their hearts.
The sudden power of wind and snow caught Zuo Yongning off guard, and the endless chill instantly froze the entire void, naturally including Zuo Yongning!
Xi Xuexian also knew she couldn't defeat the current Zuo Yongning. Even if Zuo Yongning lost half of his Divine Soul's fire, his physical body alone was enough to suppress her.
So, Xi Xuexian changed her approach. After all, she couldn't kill Zuo Yongning, so she aimed not to kill, but to trap!
Visible frost appeared in the void, and Zuo Yongning seemed like a fish frozen in the sea, although each punch of his could shatter large areas of ice crystal, the void continued to freeze with an unstoppable posture.
"Xi Xuexian!!"
Zuo Yongning roared in rage, almost driven mad, never having experienced such a string of bad luck.
"Daluo Buddha Head... no, Zuo Yongning, you're the one who deserves to die the most!"
Xi Xuexian sneered coldly, understanding why back then numerous great powers couldn't find this Buddha Head, it turned out he willingly sought allegiance with the Abyss.
Moreover, he was the first and last top Great Cultivator of the Mystical Mechanism from the First Epoch to ally with the Abyss, seemingly valued highly by the Abyss!
"I deserve to die? You simply don't understand my pursuit! You're all short-sighted fools!"
Zuo Yongning's tone was frenzied, his fists pounding like mad dragons, each strike causing the void to tremble.
"Hmph, traitor!"
Hatred filled Xi Xuexian's eyes, having no interest in engaging with him; she never liked people of Buddhism before, little skill but talkative. Moreover, they were stubborn with strange, inexplicable ideas, unyielding like nine bulls couldn't pull them back.
"Back then, Nianyun's ability was originally unsolvable for the Abyss, thought to stall the opponent for several years, but it was breached much sooner. We only thought the Abyss had its own great powers, now looking back, it was you who betrayed us!"
As the Saintess of the Nine Heavens Deity Sect, Xi Xuexian usually valued her demeanor, but recalling that battle, an unknown anger burned within her, etiquettes forgotten!
"Hahaha, of course it was me. That was my first battle since joining the Abyss, naturally, I had to put on a good show!" Zuo Yongning stated proudly.
In those days, the foremost of the Taoist Sect's Three Immortals, Dao Fairy Nianyun, was truly astonishing, a man who made the entire Cultivation World admire him, the only one followed by the two proud Sword Immortal and Body Immortal with respect.
Dao Fairy Nianyun, mastering the world's methods, entered the Dao through Law, comprehending the unprecedented Law of Fate!
When the Abyss Army invaded, he single-handedly altered the destiny of Mystical Mechanism and the fate of all Abyss Cultivators present on the Mystical Mechanism Continent at the time, driving them either to death or back through the Abyss Gate.
Later on, he created a fate dead zone before the Abyss Gate, covered by the Law of Fate, where any Abyss Cultivator stepping into it would face destiny severance, even with the Abyss Will intervening personally, they could only ensure survival, but not cross that fate dead zone!
The Law of Fate is one of the most unsolvable laws, possessing power feared by even the Tenth Realm, something believed impossible for Cultivators to comprehend, but Nianyun's talent achieved the unfathomable. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
However, having created the fate dead zone, Nianyun was severely drained, thinking this would at least block the Abyss for several years, giving ample time to prepare.
But somehow, the Abyss broke through the fate absoluteness in just half a year, besieging Mystical Mechanism!
By that time, Nianyun's injuries were untreated, forcing him to lead the charge against the Abyss.
What followed were successive battles, ultimately, the Three Immortals of the Taoist Sect had to sacrifice themselves, forming an array centered on Dao Fairy's Law of Fate, with Sword Immortal's unparalleled Sword Intent as the array patterns, and Body Immortal's Eternal Undying Body as the outer formation, driving all Abyss Will and Cultivators back to the Abyss Continent, sealing them away!
In the war's later stages, many speculated that if Dao Fairy could have secured a few more years for preparation, restored from his injuries, the outcome might have been different!
Now, realizing it was Zuo Yongning's betrayal that broke Nianyun's fate dead zone, leading to Mystical Mechanism's passive and eventual defeat, Xi Xuexian wished to torment him to death!
Recalling that elegant and reassuring face, even on the brink of death, Xi Xuexian felt her heart clench, each breath difficult.
"Clearly... that wooden block was just about to open his mind..."
Tears ran down her cheeks as she looked at Zuo Yongning's mocking smirk, her sorrow transforming into overwhelming killing intent!
With blood trickling from her mouth, Xi Xuexian's face, already stunning, now bore an extra layer of tragic beauty and resolve!
Xi Xuexian opened her palm, clenched her right fist towards Zuo Yongning, doubling the Domain power! Nearly escaping, Zuo Yongning was again trapped within the Domain!
Over three epochs, Xi Xuexian's Life Origin was long depleted, her survival and combat ability entirely upheld by Abyss Power.
Now, having come to her senses, all she wished was to kill Zuo Yongning; she had nothing more to linger for in the mortal world.
Instead of staying, it'd be better to contribute one last time to Mystical Mechanism!
This bit of Life Origin exchanged for an Abyss Envoy, avenging Nianyun and countless fallen Mystical Mechanism Cultivators from the First Epoch... Worth it!
"Help me kill him! I beg you..."
Xi Xuexian's slight pleading voice drifted to Liang Yi's ear with the wind.
Though she wished to act herself, she couldn't anymore!
Yet fortunately, Mystical Mechanism still had someone to succeed!
"Leave it to me!"
Liang Yi's eyes were icy cold, brushing past Xi Xuexian, speaking with heavy and determined tone!
This was his promise to Xi Xuexian!
Stars, moon, Big Sun!
In Liang Yi's eyes seemed a gentle breeze stirring, infusing his boundless killing intent into Yuan Zhou!
Zheng——
Yuan Zhou trembled upon sensing Liang Yi's anger!
As the former Sword Immortal's sword, his mission was to cut down the Mystical Mechanism traitor!
Even after two epochs, the Sword Immortal's sword still instilled fear in all!
"No!!!!"
Seeing the intense killing intent in Liang Yi, Zuo Yongning's remaining left eye flickered with despair, but by then his half body was already sealed by Xi Xuexian, unable to move at all!
"Evil Buddha!"
Zuo Yongning, as though a drowning man grasping for his last straw, called out desperately.
"What makes you think... it can pass?"
Su Youyi's voice was colder than the wind.
Though the three-headed, six-armed Evil Buddha form was summoned, frenziedly assaulting Su Youyi's defenses, Su Youyi, alone with a sword, guarded the Heavenly Vault!
As dusk arose, the River of Sword Intent flowed.
One after another, the sword shadows bearing Sword Rhythm streamed from the river, merging into the Lovesick Sword!
Back to back, Liang Yi and Su Youyi exchanged an understanding smile, both slicing the swords in their hands simultaneously!
