NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 414
Chapter 414: The Legacy of the Lady of the Nine Heavens!
A colossal figure descended from the sky like a dark cloud.
It blocked out the sun, casting a shadow over Loulan.
The enormous red eyes, as large as lanterns, were filled with malice, staring down at the city beneath.
A heavy sense of oppression washed over them, as if a primordial beast was gazing disdainfully at the ants below.
The spectators in the distance instantly turned pale, stunned by this sudden turn of events.
They had thought they were victorious, only to be confronted with an unexpected calamity!
In that ultimate confrontation, they had only vanquished a mere shell occupied by the enemy!
“Now this is much more comfortable!”
The Chiyou Demon Spirit floated like a dark cloud, letting out a blissful low moan, as if it had found immense relief after detaching from Donghuang Taiyi’s body.
That physical body had done little more than allow it to walk normally in this world.
In fact, it had restricted its abilities.
Evil spirits are formed from concentrated malevolence.
They have no physical form in themselves.
“Evil spirit, evil spirit, this is its true form.”
The Grand Priestess whispered, gazing at the massive figure above Loulan.
“We saw something similar underground.”
The Moon Goddess’s expression turned grave as she recalled the image of the Chiyou Demon Spirit they encountered in the underground space.
Back then, it had also displayed this form, except it had been dragging countless chains behind it.
Those chains had been forged by the War Demon God under the command of the Lady of the Nine Heavens, but over the long years, it had broken free.
Da Siming suddenly understood, “It isn’t Donghuang Taiyi?”
She had believed that Donghuang Taiyi had emerged until hearing the Moon Goddess and Grand Priestess speak just now.
The Moon Goddess explained, “Donghuang Taiyi has already perished in that space; it is Chiyou who has occupied his body.”
Da Siming was shocked, “The Lord Donghuang is dead?”
The Moon Goddess casually stated, “From now on, the Yin-Yang School shall follow my Senior Sister’s lead.”
“Greetings, Lady Dongjun!”
Da Siming looked at Fei Yan’s silhouette, her feelings mixed.
Yet for her, this was also somewhat good news.
Regardless of whether it was forced or by choice, she ultimately betrayed the Yin-Yang School at a crucial moment.
Now that Donghuang Taiyi was dead, at least she wouldn’t have to worry about him settling scores later.
Fei Yan had allies in the Moon Goddess and others, but Da Siming did not.
Meanwhile, the situation for Li Mo was far from optimistic.
The true form of the Chiyou Demon Spirit was formless and untouchable.
Every attack felt as ineffective as hitting cotton.
The pure power of thunder may have had some effect, but the opponent had absorbed countless evil spirits over the years underground.
Even with a body riddled with holes, it could recover in an instant.
“These mere mortals think they can hurt me? Foolish delusion!”
The Chiyou Demon Spirit opened its gaping maw and lunged at Li Mo, who barely managed to dodge just in time.
That bite took out half of the crumbling palace beneath him!
Half the palace seemed to vanish into a black hole, instantly disassembling into fragments, replenishing the body of the Chiyou Demon Spirit that had just been pierced by Li Mo’s lightning strike.
Li Mo’s expression turned grave as he watched this scene unfold.
So, the Chiyou Demon Spirit wasn’t just able to recover its injuries by wandering spirits.
Anything that entered its mouth would transform into energy it needed.
In this way, no matter how severe the injury, as long as it wasn’t annihilated instantly, it wouldn’t be eliminated.
This was much more terrifying than Bai Xianwu.
Bai Xianwu, though devoid of pain, could at least be harmed.
Injured by pure Yang energy, she wouldn’t recover so quickly.
Now the Chiyou Demon Spirit was like an upgraded version of Bai Xianwu.
The sky was shrouded in dark clouds, and the Thunder Sea roared rumble.
Blinding bolts of lightning wove a giant net overhead, like celestial pillars falling from the heavens, smashing down squarely onto the massive body of the Chiyou Demon Spirit.
The Chiyou Demon Spirit let out a sinister wail.
Its body was punctured like a giant curtain, with gas spewing out from the numerous gaping holes, each the size of an arm.
The overwhelming Thunder Sea could inflict damage, and it felt pain.
Yet, this minor injury was insignificant to it.
It merely needed to open its mouth, devouring everything visible before it, and its injuries would heal instantly!
Its provocative howl echoed over Loulan, filling everyone with a profound despair.
If even Li Mo couldn’t kill it, then who in the world could?!
……..flowers, please…
Fei Yan furrowed her brows and saw through the predicament.
In desperation, she lamented, “It can turn everything into its own, standing undefeated by nature.”
The Moon Goddess was also contemplating solutions, but the Chiyou Demon Spirit before them had surpassed their understanding.
She could only helplessly say, “It doesn’t belong to this world; it is an existence of a different form. Does it really mean only the divine can kill it?”
Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess certainly knew that Li Mo was no god, but a living, breathing human.
He was able to push Donghuang Taiyi to the brink and force the Chiyou Demon Spirit occupying him to reveal its most primitive form; such achievements were already enough to stand tall in the world.
But the problem remained that the Chiyou Demon Spirit’s true essence was entirely an unknown form, even transcending their dimension.
“I… I have an idea!”
Just as everyone was at a loss, the Grand Priestess suddenly thought of something.
“Quick, tell us!”
Fei Yan was now frantic, urging her on.
The Grand Priestess gazed at the distant battlefield, looking up at the Chiyou Demon Spirit hovering over the temple ruins, and stated, “It doesn’t belong to this world; we can only use weapons that also don’t belong to this world to threaten it.”
Upon hearing this, Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess already had an inkling of the Grand Priestess’s intentions.
“Three thousand years ago, Chiyou acquired a meteorite from the heavens and forged it into a sword, making him invincible ever since.”
“But that sword is indeed a magic sword that can erode the user’s mind.”
“It was under the influence of that sword that Chiyou’s personality changed.”
“If we can acquire that sword, the Lord of the Divine will definitely be able to defeat it!”
The Grand Priestess’s gaze gradually became resolute, and her answer aligned with what Fei Yan and the Moon Goddess had guessed.
However…
The Moon Goddess sighed in disappointment, “But that sword is buried deep in the Underground World, utterly out of reach.”
They had seen that sword in the underground space, chasing the Chiyou Demon Spirit, but the sword seemed to possess its own free will; it couldn’t be wielded by mere mortals.
So how could they possibly acquire it?
The Grand Priestess solemnly replied, “I have the method left by the Lady of the Nine Heavens, which can summon the magic sword into the world.”
