Chapter 19 Moments of Life And Death

Yu Feiyan walked forward quickly but Zhong Yue had already disappeared into the shadows and out of her sight. If she continued to pursue, she would’ve ended up in the male house and so she decided to give up. She turned back and said, “Hmph, this guy has some capability….”

Beside her, Tao Daier said angrily, “Junior Martial Sister Ting, how could you bring a man into the female house! Your little man is also a scoundrel, he peeped at us while we were taking a bath!”

Ting Lanyue quickly explained, “Junior Martial Brother Zhong only entered the upper house recently so he did not know the rules in the upper house. I am very sure that it was not his intention to peep while the both of you were taking a bath. Senior Martial Sister Tao, please don’t tell your dad about this. Last time, it was because of him that we managed to escape unharmed from the Demon Ruins and I cannot thank him enough. I have to defend him this time to prevent him being beaten to death by the few of you….”

Tao Daier could not hold back and laughed, “Why are you so nervous about him. Don’t worry, I was not the one who was taking a bath when he peeped so I won’t tell my dad about it. The one who was taking a bath at that time was someone else, which explains why she is so pissed off now.”

Upon hearing her words, Ting Lanyue secretly smiled and looked at Yu Feiyan.

Yu Feiyan’s face was expressionless and she coldly commanded, “Junior martial sister, tell your man to come out and have a competition with me and I will not look into the matter where he peeped while I was bathing!”

Ting Lanyue was dumbfounded by her words as she knew that Yu Feiyan failed to stop Zhong Yue from escaping and she did not want to admit to the fact that she failed. After all, this was the first time the Yu Feiyan, the Senior Martial Sister acknowledged by the entire female house, failed in front of the male disciples. Therefore, how could the proud and beautiful Yu Feiyan accept what had happened?

Ting Lanyue blinked her eyes and said to herself, Junior Martial Brother Zhong’s capability is getting even more amazing every day! He is improving just as fast as Junior Martial Sister Shui Qinyan is! The duo actually match each other very well, no wonder they are so close together. But why did Junior Martial Sister Shui argue with him? Besides, Junior Martial Zhong did not look alright when he left.

Zhong Yue walked in the dark and shuttled through the forest as millions of thoughts flew around wildly in his mind. The death of Shui Qingyan caused a great shock to him, causing his psyche ocean to be unable to calm down!

“Xin Huo, about this….”

“Are you planning to tell the Swords Gate Qi Practitioners about what happened back there?”

Xin Huo stood in the air, around him was the perilous psyche ocean of Zhong Yue due to his anger, sadness, and helplessness. Xin Huo then said, “But how are you going to convince them? Who are you? You’re merely a puny little disciple of the Swords Gate, who is going to buy what you say? The most important part is that once you recount what happened, you will be not far death!”

Zhong Yue realized what Xin Huo meant immediately. He cleared and calmed down his psyche ocean and conceded, “You are right, I was thinking recklessly just now. The revival of Tian Myriad Mother and her arrival in the Swords Gate means that there are traitors among the higher-ups of Swords Gate. Other than that, Senior Martial Sister Ting said Junior Martial Sister Shui was summoned by the Qi Practitioners from her clan, the Shui Tu clan. They are very suspicious as well. As one of the strongest clans in the Great Wilderness, if the Shui Tu Clan had colluded with Tian Myriad Mother, not only would no one will believe what I say, but t would just make it easier for the Shui Tu Clan to kill me as well.”

When he said out his thoughts, his psyche ocean completely calmed down.

“Good, although you lost your mind just now, you managed to clear your head quickly. With this, you are already a cut above the ordinary ones.”

Xin Huo praised and said, “But I can feel your killing intent, are you planning to kill Tian Myriad Mother?”

Zhong Yue slowly nodded his head, he then thought of the pretty maiden who had always been calling him ‘Brother Yue’ and he can't help but feel dispirited at what happened. The reality was always very harsh, the body of ‘Shui Qingyan’ was still that but the pretty and kind maiden’s soul was departed forever.

“If I can kill Tian Myriad Mother, then it can be considered as avenging Junior Martial Sister Shui, and I will be able to live up to our friendship!”

“Then you have to work even harder! Although Tian Myriad Mother is only a low-class demon god, this low-class level is still a big deal to you. Her soul is still there, after infesting Shui Qingyan, she can be considered as naturally talented. Even if you are a Qi Practitioner, a hundred of you will still be unable to outmatch her.”

Xin Huo continued saying, “The reason that she still hasn’t become a Qi Practitioner is that her soul is not integrated with the body yet. Once she has thoroughly synchronized with the body of Shui Qingyan, she will automatically advance into a Qi Practitioner. But you ... Your soul is weak, a thousand times weaker than the soul of a demon god. Even if you managed to cultivate your own spirit and achieve [Spirit-Soul As One], she can still easily overwhelm you.”

“Xin Huo, you must know of a way to defeat and kill Tian Myriad Mother then?” Zhong Yue pleaded upon hearing his words.

“Of course. Tian Myriad Mother is just a low-class demon god after all. Once you’ve gained enough strength and have advanced into Qi Practitioner, I will definitely tell you.”

Xin Huo said seriously, “But … you are a low-class being too, a low-class Fuxi! Therefore, you must exert even more effort than anyone and refine your foundation to an even sturdier level than anyone else! I have a training guide here which would allow you to improve two times faster and forge your foundation to become even more robust! The only thing is, whether or not you are able to withstand all the hardships….”

Xin Huo then yawned and said, “I have been awake for too long and I need more sleep. Wake me up when you’ve gotten your hands on the next batch of Yuling Pellets – I will guide you in your training….”

His form then slowly changed into a sparkle of fire and then everything went silent again.

Eh? He did not return to the bronze lamp to sleep this time?

Zhong Yue felt confused because when Xin Huo went to sleep last time, he would fly back into the weathered bronze lamp. This time, however, he just silently floated in Zhong Yue’s psyche ocean.

When will I become a Qi Practitioner and walk out of the Great Wilderness to embark on the journey of seeking a pure-blood Fuxi to become the inheritor of the Xin Huo Heritage?

Zhong Yue slowly closed his eyes and started cultivating the【Jiao Dragon Winding Body Totem Art】and the raucous thunder became audible. A thunder Jiao dragon wreathed around Zhong Yue, Now the Swords Gate is in a very dangerous state, something evil is lurking in the shadows, giving me the feeling as if a gigantic beast is waiting to devour its prey.

The bottom part of Swords Gate had been blanketed in darkness while golden rays still shone brightly on the top of Swords Gate. After a while, when the sunlight stopped shining, the golden rays on top of Swords Gate also lost its luster. With that, the entire Swords Gate disappeared entirely into the shadows.

The sacred place of the Great Wilderness, the Swords Gate, had been enshrouded by the shadows.

——

After another two days, Ting Lanyue happily rushed to the male house and called Zhong Yue at the front door. This made the other male disciples very envious of Zhong Yue. Although the male disciples were forbidden from entering the female house, the converse was not true so there were often female disciples who visited their loved ones in the male house.

“Junior Martial Brother Zhong, your nine hundred and twenty Yuling Pellets.”

Zhong Yue welcomed her and she took out ten jade bottles and said, “There are a hundred pellets in each bottle, but the smallest bottle contains only twenty pellets. Each of us, including Senior Martial Brother He and the others, received nine hundred and twenty pellets each. These pellets will be able to support our training for a considerable amount of time.”

Zhong Yue felt very happy and quickly thanked her. He thought in his heart, I can finally continue training my【Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art】again!

Ting Lanyue then left. When she walked out of the male house, she suddenly thought, Oh no! I’ve forgotten to tell Junior Martial Brother Zhong that Senior Martial Sister Yu and Senior Martial Sister Tao are looking for him and I was going to ask him to stay at home if possible … Hmm … If I informed him that Senior Martial Sister Yu and Senior Martial Sister Tao are looking for him to challenge him, he will definitely ask how did they know it was him that night and he will know I was the one who sold him out….

Ting Lanyue blinked her eyes and walked away even quicker while chanting, I have nothing to do with this, I have nothing to do with this!

In his courtyard, Zhong Yue woke Xin Huo up in his psyche ocean.

“In order to forge a solid foundation, you must first have a dominating body, then a dominating soul and finally, a dominating psyche!”

Xin Huo continued talking, “The【Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art】and【Jiao Dragon Winding Body Totem Art】you have been cultivating could strengthen your soul and body. However! These apply only to you, not the dominating power of your body, soul, and psyche!”

“To become dominating, you must have explosive power and in order to achieve it, you have to keep on erupting your power!”

“This courtyard will be too small for you to train in. Go to the outside – the cliff. I’ll tell you how to erupt your full strength without reservation!”

Zhong Yue walked out of the courtyard and headed to the cliff in Swords Gate, Yin Ma Tai. In front of the cliff was a lake where there was often some beast that came for water.

Zhong Yue looked down and he couldn’t help but feel a little bit dizzy as this cliff was way too precipitous. It felt like the cliff was formed as a result of a mountain that was cut off by a colossus with a giant ax!

Below was the gorge, approximately thousands of feet deep and one could see the clouds drifting in the air on the cliff.

“Right, this place is not bad at all.”

Xin Huo said, “In order to have a dominating body, soul, and psyche, you must follow what I tell you verbatim. Now, take three Yuling Pellets.”

Zhong Yue listened and consumed three pellets. As he swallowed the pellets, he could feel an unstoppable medicinal aura surging throughout his body, causing his body, soul, and psyche to scorch with extreme heat!

After all, one Yuling Pellet’s efficacy was already quite potent, let alone three of them.

If no action was taken soon, he would be unable to digest all of the pellets, it would cause severe damage to his body, soul, and psyche. It would inflict a massive toll on his body and even cause his strength to regress!

“Right now, jump!” said Xin Huo coldly.

“What!?” babbled the startled Zhong Yue.

“Jump!”

Xin Huo sounded so apathetic as if he had no emotions left and he continued saying, “After jumping down, you must visualize your【Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art】at once. At the moment of life and death, great fear will slowly consume you but it could also be an incredible impetus for you, allowing you to galvanize and squeeze out every single bit of your potential! Once jumping down, I’ll guide you in erupting every single morsel of strength in you so that you should at least not die!”

Cold sweat started dripping down from Zhong Yue’s forehead and he looked below carefully. Upon seeing this, Xin Huo smirked and said, “Why? Are you afraid? That’s right, you are not a pure-blood Fuxi after all, it was wise of me to not select as the inheritor of the Xin Huo. How are you expecting to defeat Tian Myriad Mother just like that?”

As soon as he finished talking, Zhong Yue had already leaped out of Yin Ma Tai!

He then lost control of himself and began to plummet towards the bottom of the cliff. His falling speed accelerated and the noise from the wind became even more shrill and clarion.

The next moment, Zhong Yue could feel the terror engulfing him, occupying every part of his body including his mind!

His psyche ocean also vibrated vigorously and it became twisted as soon as he leaped off the cliff. The sea water representing the psyche in his psyche ocean transformed into a monstrous being, disturbing and distracting his mind!

It was his inner evil!

At moments of life and death, an inner evil would be born when one was overwhelmed with abject fear, instigating chaos in one’s mind.

“Visualize right now!” Xin Huo shouted so loud that it caused Zhong Yue to have tinnitus.

Zhong Yue did his best to refocus, He calmed himself as hard as possible, stopped his trembling and followed Xin Huo’s words!

Krongg——

A loud noise rang in his ears and everything went dark and silent, he could not sense anything anymore, only the gigantic Sui Sovereign that stood loftily in his psyche ocean.

He did not visualize the Flame Order Palace or the fire tree, only the Sui Sovereign. He did his best in order to make the Sui Sovereign to be as perfect as possible.

As soon as the mighty and divine Sui Sovereign appeared, the great fear and inner evil within Zhong Yue immediately melted away like snow!
