Chapter 266 - The Perilous Golden Summit

Xin Huo little flame form jumped about inside of Zhong Yue's psyche ocean in discontent at the fact that he was stripped of his control of Zhong Yue's body.

The little flame placed the matter of the continuation of the Fuxi Celestial Race high in his heart. He was determined to nurture the next pureblood celestial progeny as the inheritor of the heritage he held. He was dissatisfied with Zhong Yue's impure and lackluster bloodline, always hoping that Zhong Yue would be able to produce a pureblood Fuxi among his descendants.

"You of the Zhong Shan Clan, I hate you!"

The little flame threw a final tantrum before sequestering himself to the darkest corner of Zhong Yue's psyche ocean to sulk by himself.

“Xin Huo….”

"Nevermind me. I'm angry now!"

Zhong Yue couldn't help but laugh at Xin Huo's immaturity before he had a violent coughing fit; he knew that his injuries were too heavy. The demonic Qi and demonic aura severely impacted his mortal body and Yuan Shen. He was at death's door right now, and his situation would only deteriorate if his condition were not taken care of.

Xin Huo entered his body and stimulated the Fuxi celestial blood to coalesce his mortal body with the Sui Sovereign Yuan Shen to form the Sui Sovereign body. As such, Xin Huo had forcibly suppressed the wounds in his body to preserve his life.

But as the Fuxi body dispersed away, the wounds on his body erupted out, and was even showing signs of worsening!

The demonic Qi corroded his flesh, his skin withered pulverized, his blood vaporized, and his meat was nearly crushed by the demonic aura — all in all, he was already half a step away from death!

When Zhong Yue crushed away Tian Myriad Mother's previous life mortal body, he was in the state of [Atman Body as One], which meant that the condition of his Yuan Shen would be the same as the condition of his mortal body!

And his mortal body right now was in dire straits; his wounds were no longer able to be suppressed, and the same applied to the wounds of his Yuan Shen!

Not only that, when he was facing Tian Myriad Mother's previous incarnation. The demonic Qi and aura had already penetrated into his body, these demonic Qi and auras weren't something so easily eradicated. As long as they remained in his body, his wounds would only continue to worsen!

“Five secret realms, open!”

Zhong Yue struggled to pull himself up to sit in the lotus position. He opened up all five of his secret realms. Immediately, Yu Zheng's tremendous life force and life energy that were stored in his secret realm surged out, flooding every corner of his body and Yuan Shen, healing everything it passed by in the process.

His muscles stopped rotting, and rejuvenated flesh began to grow under the life energy and force's stimulation. New blood flushed out the old and dead blood, and the fractured bones melded together to become whole once again.

At the same time, his Yuan Shen was also healing itself with the aid of the life force and life energy. Now able to suppress his wounds, the healing continued to accelerate as time continued to pass.

Yu Zheng was really strong as a cultivator who had cultivated the Immortal Body; his life force and life energy are so strong! If I didn't go to Yu Zheng's palace acquire his life force and energy, I would've died by now.

After a long time, the wounds in his mortal body and Yuan Shen had been suppressed, but the demonic Qi and aura were not as easy to deal with. Zhong Yue knew that the wounds could worsen and erupt again.

How strong was Tian Myriad Mother? She was already a demon god in her previous life, her demonic Qi and demonic aura were at the level of the gods. Even if the amount of demonic Qi and aura in Zhong Yue's body was not that much, it was still sufficient enough to threaten his life.

He enveloped the demonic Qi and aura with the life force and energy, gathering it together in his psyche ocean. As of now, he was still at a loss on how to deal with it.

The demonic Qi and aura were like a patch of gray sky that was overcast over his psyche ocean. It placed a vague suppression on his psyche. He felt as if there were a mountain pressing down on his psyche ocean, grinding away at his mind and his power.

"Xin Huo, how do I remove the demonic Qi and aura away?" Zhong Yue asked Xin Huo, who sat in a corner.

"Don't talk to me, I'm still angry!" The only thing Zhone Yue got was a view of Xin Huo's back while he replied in disgruntlement.

“Uh….”

Zhong Yue scratched his head and was helpless against the little flame. He shifted his concentration out of the psyche ocean. He opened his eyes and saw a pair of beautiful eyes filled with worry and consternation as Qiu Jin'er stared at him in concern.

"Senior martial brother, your wounds…." Qiu Jin'er saw him wake up as she quickly asked.

Zhong Yue replied laughingly, "It's fine now, just some hidden dangers leftover by the demonic Qi and aura lurking in my body. Junior martial sister, are you injured?"

Qiu Jin'er shook her head, she stammered and was too embarrassed to voice her question. Her heart undulated violently, and her heartstrings felt entangled among themselves.

Senior martial sister, you said that I’m your lover for the nine lifetimes, is that true?

Her heart thumped as if a little deer was hopping around in it. Her imagination ran wild, but she was too ashamed to voice what was on her mind, only being able to think to herself, Have you really searched for me for nine lifetimes? You said that I was your lover and you were a Heavenly Monarch. Did we really love one another for the past nine lifetimes, just how many trials have we been through together?

One after another, she began imagining all sorts of wild stories in her mind, some were somber, and some were exciting and intense … her little face blushed red with embarrassment, and her heart melted like ice in the sun.

One had to be honest, Xin Huo's words had too strong an impact on a young and naive girl such as herself. This caused her heart to palpitate in agitated emotion.

However, Zhong Yue didn't think too much and just said, "Junior martial sister, this time it's really dangerous, I'm sorry for dragging you over, but if I didn't, Tian Myriad Mother wouldn't have followed us in. I apologize for dragging you into this matter."

Qiu Jin'er recollected her thoughts, and she forcibly pressed down her feelings. She cast her gaze at the Tian Myriad Mother's spirit and said, "Senior martial brother, what do we do now? Tian Myriad Mother is dead, and Junior Martial Sister Shui will not come back to life either. But she is after all the deputy hall master of the Seal Suppression Hall; her death is not a small thing, we won't be able to keep hiding it for long. Should we inform the elder council?"

“No, we mustn’t do that!”

Rays flashed in Zhong Yue's eyes. He said solemnly, "We can inform the elder council if Tian Myriad Mother is the only threat. But sadly that isn't the case; there are still some that have colluded with Tian Myriad Mother; informing them of her death now will be like a reckless act. We will only alert the enemy. Furthermore, the Xiao Mang Celestial Race is still worshipping her, keeping her spirit alive. This means that the Xiao Mang Celestial Race has yet to know that she is already dead, we can use this to our advantage!"

Qiu Jin'er lifted her hand and looked, Tian Myriad Mother's spirit was still shrouded with the demonic Qi and aura, and her eyes were still slightly opened. Clearly, there were still living beings worshipping her!

“But what if the others in Swords Gate suspects when Junior Martial Sister Shui has been missing for too long?” Qiu Jin’er thought and asked.

"Then we shall say that she is having a closed-door training session in the Seal Suppression Hall."

Zhong Yue thought for a moment and replied, "It's very normal for the Qi Practitioners to undergo seclusion for a few months. The traitor will surely make a move at the end of the year, and the longer she goes missing, the more anxious her accomplices will become. They will find a way into the Seal Suppression Hall to search for her, and this is a chance to eliminate them! The longer she goes missing, the more anxious they will be, and the easier it will be to catch them!"

Qiu Jin'er was shocked, and she exclaimed out involuntarily, "Then wouldn't we be in danger?"

Zhong Yue nodded, he then said, "We will have to inform the headmaster about this. But I'm too obvious a target, I'm already on their radar; they will surely notice if I were to head over to inform headmaster. Hence, only you can do it. You will head over to the golden summit and inform headmaster about what happened here."

Qiu Jin’er nodded silently, just when she was about to leave, Zhong Yue suddenly said, “Junior martial sister, tidy up your appearances.”

Qiu Jin'er immediately knew what he was referring to, she left the Seal Suppression Hall, tidied up her image, and washed off the blood stains before replacing her marred clothes with a neat set.

Zhong Yue patrolled around, he gathered the broken metal chains and Yu Zheng’s crumbled copper palace, placing them together on the side in one clump.

After which, Zhong Yue opened the copper palaces and released Tian Myriad Mother's severed parts. He reformed her into her full form, he then pushed this demonic spirit into a dead palace, sealing it away.

“Let me out, I promise that I will not dissect you….” on the side, Feng Xiaozhong allured him.

Zhong Yue ignored him and continued with his own affairs. He heaved a breath of relief after cleaning the aftermath of the battles. He then walked out of the Seal Suppression Palace, waiting quietly on the side for Qiu Jin'er to return.

Qiu Jin’er left the Seal Suppression Hall and headed over to the golden summit of Swords Gate; just when she reached the golden summit, a voice suddenly rang in her ears, “Qiu Tan Clan’s little girl, why are you here?”

Qiu Jin'er was shocked, she followed the voice and looked over, seeing a few elders standing guard outside of the golden summit. She quickly bowed and greeted them, "Elder Zizheng, I have a few cultivation questions to ask the headmaster. Why is Elder Zizheng here?"

Shui Zizheng sighed, he said, "Headmaster, he … this morning, our headmaster fainted and had just woken up not long before. We elders rushed over to have a look. The headmaster is now…."

He shook his head and sighed, “It might not be the best time to come now, the headmaster is tired enough already.”

Just when Qiu Jin'er was hesitating, Elder Pu suddenly walked out of the golden summit and said, "The headmaster is aware of her arrival, and her presence is requested. May Elder Zizheng let her in."

Shui Zizheng answered smilingly, “How will I possibly disobey if it’s the headmaster’s will? Qiu Tan Clan little girl, you may go in. Keep in mind, the headmaster shall avoid exerting too much energy, you musn’t stay for too long.”

Qiu Jin’er walked into the palace on the golden summit, her heart was puzzled and thought, I’m the headmaster’s disciple, it’s natural for me to go in. Why is Elder Pu asking for Elder Shui Zizheng’s permission? It seems like senior martial brother is right, even the headmaster has been closely watched….

She followed Elder Pu and walked into the wardroom, there was an elder from the Lei Hu Clan standing by the side of the doors. He saw the duo and asked of their intentions before letting Qiu Jin'er in.

In the wardroom, the headmaster was lying down in the bed, Grand Elder Yu sitting by the bedside, caring for his condition with grave concern.

Qiu Jin'er's heart palpitated quickly, even without Zhong Yue having to warn her, she could also sense the frigid atmosphere that pervaded the golden summit. Grand Elder Yu looked at her. His face was warm and gentle as he said, "Qiu Tan Clan's little girl, do not tarry the headmaster's time for too long, do you understand?"

Qiu Jin’er nodded obediently, “Yes, elder.”

The old man lying on the bed struggled to pull himself up, he smiled and said, “Junior Martial Brother Yu, she must be here with questions regarding the【Great Boundless Sword Qi】for me, you may leave now.”

“Yes.”

Grand Elder Yu stood up. He said, "Headmaster, you mustn't go over exhaust yourself, the brothers are just outside the wardroom, if you feel uneasy, just say it out."

The old man laughed in reply, "It's just a simple blackout, I'm not dead yet. Don't you worry too much, get out, get out!"

Grand Elder Yu smiled and walked out of the room, closing the doors as he left.

The old man turned his gaze to Qiu Jin’er and asked smilingly, “What questions do you have for me?”

Just when Qiu Jin'er was going to blurt out everything, the old man's voice rang in her head, "Ask me a question while telling me what happened with your psyche."

Qiu Jin'er calmed herself down and randomly threw fielded a question regarding the【Great Boundless Sword Qi】, all the while, recounting the incident at the Seal Suppression Hall in secret with a mental transmission.

"I see, this Zhong Shan Clan's little brat, he is too impatient, but it's fine. Moreover, it actually makes it easier for me to lay a trap."

The old man answered the question she asked about the【Great Boundless Sword Qi】while he took out a token and transmitted his voice to her, "Take this token and bring it to Zuo Xiangsheng."
