Checking in for 100,000 Years
Chapter 59: Blood Moon in the Sky, Phenomenon on Earth
CHAPTER 59: CHAPTER 59: BLOOD MOON IN THE SKY, PHENOMENON ON EARTH
Witnessing the slightly reddened moon, Elder Luo rubbed his chin in deep thought.
Coming from a well-established power like the Qitian Sword Sect, with its profound knowledge and resources, he also understood a great deal about the history of the Shenfeng Dynasty.
Regarding Silver Moon City, Elder Luo also happened to have studied it.
Ten thousand years ago, this was the royal city of the Silver Moon Wolf Clan. However, after their defeat in the war against humans, Silver Moon City became a city of the Human Race.
"It’s been ten thousand years. Surely, there aren’t any remnants of the Silver Moon Wolf Clan left, right?" Elder Luo speculated internally.
According to the historical records of that time, the Silver Moon Wolf Clan had been wiped out.
In nearly ten thousand years, not a single werewolf from the Silver Moon Wolf Clan had surfaced.
Elder Luo looked up again at the slightly reddish moon in the night sky.
He remembered that the Silver Moon Wolf Clan seemed to have an extremely ancient and mysterious sacrificial ritual.
During this ritual, the moon would turn blood-red.
The moon in the night sky now was only slightly red, far from that blood-red color...
Elder Luo shook his head with a wry smile.
He felt his previous worry had been a bit excessive.
「...」
Xiong Yinghao’s brow furrowed as he stared intently at the battle on the arena.
At this moment, a total of seventeen Origin Sea Realm masters had joined the fight, attacking Su Wanyi frantically.
Initially, he had wanted to capture Su Wanyi and throw her into the dungeon, subjecting her to various tortures to appease Elder Luo’s anger.
But later, he discovered that Su Wanyi was indeed formidable.
Thus, he resolved to kill her.
This woman must not be left alive. The sooner she was killed, the sooner a hidden threat would be eliminated.
Therefore, once the second wave of high-level Origin Sea Realm cultivators joined the fray, everyone began to launch lethal attacks.
Su Wanyi consecutively faced perilous situations.
Seeing that her defeat was imminent, Elder Luo, who had been observing the intense battle, exhaled softly and finally relaxed.
No matter how good Su Wanyi’s stamina was, she had, after all, endured several major battles.
Now, with seventeen Origin Sea Realm masters fiercely besieging her, she surely couldn’t hold on for much longer.
"Hmph, let this foolish woman disappear from this world forever..." Elder Luo thought grimly.
Amidst the tide of sword gleams, Su Wanyi’s lips were pressed tightly together, her forehead glistening with fine beads of sweat as she endured the terrifying attacks from seventeen Origin Sea Realm masters. The pressure she was under at this moment was immense.
Now, Su Wanyi could appreciate the tremendous pressure her junior martial brother and junior martial sister had faced when confronting dozens of opponents.
Every moment, she brushed past the line between life and death.
If she were even slightly inattentive, she would be struck by dozens of sword gleams.
And those dozen or so Origin Sea Realm cultivators launched killing blows with every move, all aimed at her vital points.
Su Wanyi focused all her spirit.
At this moment, she pushed the Divine Dragon Nine-Change Body Technique to its absolute limit.
Dozens of Divine Dragon Phantoms danced in the air above the arena, making it difficult to distinguish the real from the illusory.
Even if Sword Qi dispelled half of the Divine Dragon Phantoms, another dozen or so would immediately materialize.
Ever-changing and elusive.
Ye Yun watched this scene from inside the carriage, a faint smile appearing on his serene face.
In terms of the Divine Dragon Nine-Change Body Technique, Su Wanyi... is indeed stronger than Luo Li and Jun Moxiao.
After all, they were currently within the Shenfeng Dynasty’s territory, where Origin Sea Realm cultivators were considerably stronger than those in the Ancient Moon Dynasty.
So the pressure she faced would naturally be greater.
Su Wanyi only needed to persevere a little longer to achieve a breakthrough.
Ye Yun glanced at the celestial phenomena and noticed the round moon growing increasingly crimson.
He then looked towards the earth beneath Silver Moon City.
He found that the underground formation was nearly prepared and had already begun to operate.
Ye Yun raised an eyebrow, then lifted his hand and gently pointed with his index finger.
The entire space above and below Silver Moon City suddenly underwent a wondrous change.
Deep underground, the great formation operated by the Silver Moon Wolf Clan was forcibly suppressed by Ye Yun, its speed unknowingly slowing.
It could be said that whether it was the Tri-element Martial Meeting on the surface or the Silver Moon Wolf Clan’s plans underground, everything was unfolding within Ye Yun’s grand strategy.
The moment Su Wanyi broke through would also be when the blood moon hung high, heralding the resurrection of the Howling Sky Silver Wolf.
And Ye Yun had long made arrangements for this Howling Sky Silver Wolf; it was to be practice for the Big Black Cat.
Time gradually flowed by.
While time seemed to pass very slowly for Ye Yun, for Su Wanyi, it flew by.
Her mind was intensely focused; every minute, every second, she was dealing with all kinds of sword light attacks.
The slightest misstep would lead to a fatal wound.
Xiong Yinghao stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his expression extremely serious as he looked towards the arena.
If not for his status, he would have truly wanted to rush up and join the battle.
So many Origin Sea Realm experts, after attacking for so long, still couldn’t take down a single cultivator at the Yuanhai Realm Second Layer.
"A bunch of trash!"
Xiong Yinghao stomped his foot in anger.
"This Su Wanyi should be nearing her limit!" Elder Luo remarked coolly, his eyes narrowed, emitting a cold glint.
Another half-cup of tea’s time passed.
Xiong Yinghao and Elder Luo exchanged a glance, their expressions extremely grim.
They had repeatedly assumed Su Wanyi would collapse at any moment, but unexpectedly, she kept escaping death by a hair’s breadth, time and time again.
This left both of them incredibly shocked.
How could this Su Wanyi possess such tenacity?
In his entire life, Elder Luo had never seen such a resilient cultivator.
Little did he know that Su Wanyi, ever since childhood, had been fleeing with her Master, experiencing countless life-and-death trials.
She, her Master, and her junior martial siblings had escaped death numerous times thanks to their Sect’s Divine Dragon Nine-Change Body Technique.
"A tiger forced onto flat plains can be bullied by dogs."
The current Dragon God Sect was obscure and barely known. For nearly ten thousand years, it had maintained almost no presence on the Cangnan Continent.
Ninety thousand years ago, any cultivator who witnessed the Divine Dragon Nine-Change Body Technique would have instinctively kept a great distance.
Who would have dared to challenge a disciple of an Eternal Sect?
In the blink of an eye, the time it takes for an incense stick to burn had passed.
BANG!
The invisible shackles within Su Wanyi’s body finally shattered.
Her body trembled slightly, and the Mana within her surged like a great river, rushing through all her meridians.
In this moment, Su Wanyi’s Mana and combat prowess soared once more!
"She broke through again!"
The surrounding crowd couldn’t help but reveal shocked expressions.
Among the crowd, Chang Lu Die also stared wide-eyed, unable to believe what she was witnessing.
This Sister Su... is simply an unparalleled monster!
One must realize, she had just broken through during her match with Xiong Chumo!
Less than two hours had passed, yet she had broken through twice consecutively. This was truly stunning to countless people.
"How did she break through again?!"
Elder Luo abruptly shot to his feet, clenching his fists, the veins on his neck bulging prominently.
"Go!" Elder Luo ordered, his face grim, looking towards Xiong Yinghao at his side.
"Yes!"
The shocked Xiong Yinghao immediately stood up upon hearing Elder Luo’s command.
Suddenly, Xiong Yinghao heard astonished cries from the surrounding crowd.
"Look! Why has the moon turned red?"
Countless people instinctively looked up at the night sky.
At this moment, the celestial phenomena underwent a strange transformation: the originally golden full moon had turned blood-red.
A blood moon now hung in the sky!
That eerie blood moon hung ominously in the sky.
The bloody light it cast down dyed Silver Moon City in a crimson hue.
