Chapter 134: The Touch of Moonlight
Back in the familiar alchemy laboratory, Qi Xiao retrieved his previous medical reports, placed them alongside the newly recorded data for the spirit blood potion, and carefully reviewed them from beginning to end twice.
After double-checking, he found the results matched his expectations almost perfectly. Satisfied, he put the documents away; now that everything was prepared, he only awaited the materials he had commissioned Aubremas to deliver.
Checking the time, he saw it was already late into the night. Qi Xiao walked to the lake.
He had truly gone mad now. Licking the blood from his hand, he let out a roar and charged at Zhou Mingyang like a crazed bull.
Yue Yuhan gave a stiff nod and walked heavily into the Holy Realm. Once inside, everything around him was void, filled only with endless light.
She had only acted properly alongside him on the first day; after that, they stopped rehearsing, yet she continued to sleep in his room, and he said nothing.
That is correct. Do not assume the Imperial Palace is surrounded by the city of Chang'an; the palace sits at the northernmost edge of the city. The primary reason for this is to allow those within the palace to overlook the entirety of Chang'an, as the palace grounds occupy the highest elevation in the city.
"Cinnabar is red, and the Cinnabar Well of our Li family is the crystallization of the karmic fire of all souls who have perished in the Ancient Land of Heaven's Sin. Therefore, practitioners cannot touch even a fraction of it, or they risk setting themselves aflame. Yet, the mountain and water deities are particularly fond of it, as this cinnabar can temper their golden manifestations," Li Tongde continued.
Ye Xiao prepared to rush forward, but at that moment, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from within. Something seemed to leap up, landing heavily in front of Ye Xiao and his companions, the impact scattering the surrounding dust.
"This world may be wretched, filled with slaughter and schemes, but because of certain people and certain things, it is not entirely disappointing!" Yu Jian said to Liu Buyi.
"For that child, this is too cruel!" As the contemporary saint of the Ancient Land of Suppressed Sin, Yu Jian was the most sensitive to the disturbances in the Ancient Land of Heaven's Sin.
Deep in the mountains, there stood an altar, clearly a place with a long history. It was night, and the moon in the sky was round and large, looking just like a pancake, making one think it was time to eat mooncakes.
"Supreme God, Guardian of Demons, wherever you walk shall become a kingdom of demons, where the Demon Lord reigns over all." Between heaven and earth, cries of worship echoed. Countless demonic creatures prostrated themselves, offering everything they had to this existence.
The universe is vast and infinitely profound. Some birds and beasts with intelligence can transform into human form through their own cultivation; these are the demon cultivators. Spirit cultivators, on the other hand, are beings that absorb the essence of the sun and moon and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to eventually manifest a physical body.
Now, Qin Wei and her son are imprisoned in the palace. Once Qin Xuan ascends the throne, they will be sent back to their fiefdom.
The more Wei Yujie thought about it, the more helpless she felt. In the end, Zheng Yuan was unwilling to extend a helping hand. She had been too naive; how could the president of a prestigious company ever be serious about a bar singer? Lost in thought, she closed her eyes once more.
"Sixth Brother!" Yang Tianheng and the other two leaped from the stage, rushing toward the large crater in the martial arts arena.
Gusu Haoyue picked up Liang Chenyue. Her body stiffened; she could not see, but she knew Gusu Haoyue had arrived. Gusu Canyue had sealed her acupoints, leaving her unable to speak or move a muscle.
"Common folk don't understand those things; they just think it's efficacious, so they pray for everything," Jiang Yan said, feeling a sense of wonder.
Before long, Helan Yu'er hurried in. A flash of surprise appeared in her eyes when she first saw Su Qing, but it vanished in an instant.
Amidst the chorus of praise, the program finally drew to a slow close, and the broadcast moved on to the next segment.
After waking up, Tang Mu realized he was in a place completely foreign to him. Everything before his eyes gave him the surreal sensation of being in a dream.
