Chapter 2763: Hades

The geniuses who perished at the giant turtle's mouth did not reappear, while those who escaped its mouth returned.

You Guo's weakness accumulated, the Upper Country did not care, and neither monarch nor ministers took pity.

But the common people had their own loves and hates.

In the end, like wildfire igniting dry grass, after the wind blew for many years, it spread across the plains in a single night.

At that time, Yin Guan had clearly already escaped, yet he still did not hesitate to use the treasure he had obtained from Wan Xian Palace after a near-death experience to challenge Ji Yan Yue.

The result of the challenge was that Ji Yan Yue was unharmed, while he, thousands of miles away, suffered severe injuries and instantly vomited blood.

So, that "Thousand Tribulations Eye" was truly without merit?

At this moment, Ji Yan Yue's body continuously twisted, and the curse power, like leaf veins or a tree's network, was responding.

That mouthful of blood Yin Guan spat out in the nameless tavern was only the true declaration of this challenge.

From then on, his curse on Ji Yan Yue had not ceased for a single day.

Water drops can pierce stone, and piled earth can become a mountain.

In Dao Calendar 3918, he already proved Shen Lin, treading a rugged path into the way to heaven.

In Dao Calendar 3921, he returned to You, killed the monarch, ministers, and generals, overturned the old court, and retreated completely.

In Dao Calendar 3923, he participated in the Slay True battle, already able to use curse power to influence Zhuang Gao Xian.

Today is already Dao Calendar 3927!

Having been continuously cursed by such a Yin Guan for nearly six years... the curse power, like a disease, had entered a critical stage!

At this time, the curse power inside Ji Yan Yue's body was not spreading or invading, but being awakened, becoming active.

Just like another kind of instinct in the body, awakened by life's experiences.

Survival and destruction are both instincts!

The cultivation of the heart is all about subduing original desires, but how can people resist instincts?

"I truly underestimated you, Yin Guan." Ji Yan Yue endured the strong impulse of self-destruction, and directly raised a fist.

The palace lamp was already shattered.

The five-colored glazed fire escaped its cage, soaring up. Boiling flames rolled, and she stepped into them!

Burning the body with fire, burning the curse with truth.

Above her head, there were wisps of green smoke, like mayflies fading into the distance.

That was the curse power being expelled.

In this swaying five-colored glazed fire, Ji Yan Yue stood upright, manifesting a kind of sacred beauty: "Yin Guan, you have cursed for six years, yet you do not come out to reap the harvest yourself? This extent alone, how can it repay your hatred?"

Responding to her was rainwater, green raindrops descending from the sky.

Every drop of rain contained resentment and madness.

A sudden downpour.

This world was cursed... No, this world was cursing Ji Yan Yue!

At this moment, Ji Yan Yue also smelled a foul odor. She sat in the palace of this world, as if it had turned into a latrine. Filthy, disgusting, viscous corpse fluid overflowed from the palace gaps, flowing outwards in all directions, polluting everything it touched.

Ji Yan Yue frowned. She did not feel fear, but disgust.

And in the air, that disk of bright red flaming moon that she had cut off in time also jumped out of bondage. Yin Guan had completely plundered it; at this moment it was a green flaming moon, curved like a knife, suddenly chopping down!

"Alright..."

Ji Yan Yue slightly sighed, twisting her brows. With a grasp of her right hand, the entire world infinitely contracted--

Divine dragons wailed, mountains collapsed, the world's iron rules easily dissolved. The curse power clinging to this world like a persistent illness also vanished into nothingness. Those foul parts, along with that blood coffin, were naturally wiped away one by one.

She ultimately controlled the highest authority in this world, possessing the most choices. And she chose to abandon over two hundred years of accumulation, reopening this world, letting Yin Guan's subsequent methods die in the womb.

But the scene before her, after she put away her True Fate King Realm, was no longer the self-flourishing road she had cultivated. Instead, it was green trees forming a forest, green grass forming a turf, birds singing, flowers fragrant, a gentle breeze blowing... What a harmonious place!

Her expression was serious.

In front of her stood Yin Guan, whose waist bore a mask and whose face was expressionless.

It was very obvious that Yin Guan had just stood here, triggering the curse across worlds and exchanging blows with her.

This was their truly meaningful first meeting. Previously, this young person named "Yin Guan" had never dared to truly stand before her. There was only the illusion of a hurried parting last time.

She seriously sized up this person and also sized up this world, trying to grasp a kind of reality.

Behind Yin Guan, in a line, stood or squatted seven people, some on treetops, some on the grass. Everyone was wrapped in black robes, and everyone manifested a Shen Lin aura.

Song Emperor King, carrying double knives; Wu Guan King, carrying a blood coffin on his back; Yan Luo King, constantly turning dice in his hands; Tai Shan King, with pervasive blood qi; City King, holding an array disk in his right hand; Equality King, emitting strong light like a blazing sun; Wheel King, with rune chains winding around his body like snakes.

Ji Yan Yue's gaze swept over them one by one: "Ten Halls Yan Luo, why are two still missing? Do you regard this palace so lightly? Where are Bian City King and Chu Jiang King?"

No one answered her.

Yin Guan stood alone in front of all the Yan Luo. A green flame burning evil altar rumbled up from his feet.

His pupils turned green, his long hair hung to his ankles, and he spread both hands: "Welcome to my world--this is also, your hell!"

The small bird flying in the air suddenly grew barbs and fangs. The gentle green grass suddenly grew wildly, like a group of snakes dancing madly. The verdant green trees suddenly bared their teeth and claws, twisting like demons--

Boom! Boom... Boom! Boom!

Ten sinister halls rose in this world, virtually suspended in the air, causing the bright world to suddenly dim. Among them, eight cast down virtual shadows, covering the eight revered Yan Luo. And on the horizon was a blood moon, floating with a touch of gloom.

Everything here was very twisted.

Behind the harmony was madness.

This was the world of Qin Guang King's exclusive curse technique, its name was Yin Cao!

At this time, Ji Yan Yue only understood how much Hell No Door had done while she was confronting the curse power within her body and the desire for self-destruction.

Her True Fate King Realm was moved into Yin Cao, her palace was defiled by the filthiest power, and the curse of nearly six years erupted on her Dao Body...

But were these things alone enough to kill her, Ji Yan Yue?

She did not think of escaping, but instead pounced forward: "Since you invited me, how can I decline! Then let this palace personally see what hell is like!"

There was no road in front.

Blocking her vertically was a bone card, at this moment as big as a door panel.

The back of the bone card faced her, while the front faced the crowd of Yan Luo.

Yan Luo King's body emitted a faint golden light. He stepped out of the crowd, his black robe flying, his power surging, and with a worldly tone said: "Guess single or double!"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Bone cards flew out one by one, one after another, as if endlessly from the door.

His power was strengthened in Yin Cao.

"A set of Pai Gow, a total of thirty-two cards. That is to say, there will be thirty-two confrontations between us. Guess right, damage is reduced once; guess wrong, this time's damage is doubled." Yan Luo King introduced the rules of the gambling game: "If you arbitrarily cross the bone card, it will be considered a failure, and you will immediately be attacked. If--"

Before he could finish speaking, a true person figure had already crossed transversely. Ji Yan Yue indifferently crossed the wasteland, easily flinging those bone cards behind her.

Yan Luo King persisted in finishing the rules: "If you refuse the gambling game, you are considered to have lost. All damage will erupt at once." All the bone cards virtually suspended in the air disappeared in an instant.

The illusions of thirty-two bone cards simultaneously exploded on Ji Yan Yue's Dao Body. Terrifying explosions were happening and continuously stacking--but they abruptly stopped.

Because accompanying it, there was also a suddenly fluttering red, white, and blue three-colored flag.

This flag was held high in the air, unstoppable.

All the damage from this gambling game occurred on the flag, and did not damage Ji Yan Yue at all.

This was the secret transmission of the Da Jing imperial family, Earth Rank Dao Technique, Heaven's Fate King Flag!

In the terrifying explosion, the flag surface was already tattered, but the flagpole turned into a spear, lightning fast, cutting across the long sky, piercing Yan Luo King! His dice, along with him, all vanished into nothingness.

Ji Yan Yue's choice seemed to bear the maximum damage of this set of Pai Gow, but it was actually the most correct decision.

To truly gamble with Yan Luo King, truly be stained by the word "gamble," would result in the worst outcome.

Because there is no end to gambling. This set of Pai Gow was just the beginning. Continuously accumulated bets, continuously climbing greed, were only the divine ability methods of Yan Luo King to kill people invisibly.

Ji Yan Yue cleanly and neatly killed Yan Luo King, without being interfered with by half a point, completely demonstrating her power and insight. But her tightly locked brows did not relax.

Because she had already discovered that she had not truly killed Yan Luo King.

Yin Cao's special power suspended Yan Luo King's life.

On that side, Qin Guang King had already grasped the Heaven's Fate King Flag that had fallen to the ground, trying to drill through this world. His pair of evil green eyes gradually went mad, instantly dyeing the flag green. Then the flag surface rolled up, using the flag tip as a spear tip, and thrust out--

What a spear!

Like a lone star blocking the moon, like a strong man drawing a bow.

The flying arrow of a meteor plundered the long sky, horizontally killing towards her eyebrows.

Ji Yan Yue raised her palm like a knife in front of her eyebrows, cutting off her emitted Heaven's Fate King Flag. Her palm knife poked towards Qin Guang King's face. Qin Guang King leaned backward, clearing a piece of dazzling brilliant light!

Like the sun rising in the east!

Equality King stepped out of the fierce light, his body containing infinite light and heat. He gripped the fierce light that grew into a spear, replacing Qin Guang King's spear, and killed towards Ji Yan Yue's eyebrows again.

At this moment, he was so glorious and radiant, just like that proud figure running on the Qi Xia battlefield that year.

But the fierce light spear he saw turned blood-colored--like that blood spear on the Qi Yang battlefield.

This blood color was not dyed by the enemy, but came from himself.

Equality King's body was torn open, with the sound of a water sac being cut open. Fresh blood sprinkled on the fierce light spear, and then scattered together, without a trace.

Still not truly killed? Still only killed out of Yin Cao, unable to kill the absolute life soul?

Ji Yan Yue's heart moved slightly, but it did not affect the fight. At this moment, she had already killed into the Yan Luo team, and suddenly her body released five colors, like a lotus blooming, opening glazed fire everywhere!

Hug Moon Lamp was squeezed dry of its last value at this moment. The five-colored glazed fire covered all the Yan Luo, even swallowing and rolling towards the sky, forcing them towards Yan Luo Hall.

For a time, all the Yan Luo avoided.

Only Qin Guang King stepped into the flames.

His eyes were so mad and chaotic, yet his steps were so composed and unhurried. Seeking order in chaos, stepping on pain as stairs. This was how he had lived his life, and now he also walked towards Ji Yan Yue in this manner.

Ji Yan Yue raised her hand, erecting her palm in front.

A wooden door rose into the air, suppressing the empty lock's momentum, blocking Qin Guang King outside the door.

Looking at Yin Guan through the door was like overlooking ants from a high mountain. Yin Guan looked at the wooden door, yet it was illusory, as if in clouds and mist.

Earth Rank Dao Technique, Illusory Door!

This door could be seen but not reached, unseen remotely, it was a first-class method to obstruct enemies. It could most cut off qi machine and hide tracks.

Yin Guan just turned his evil eyes, then imprinted green on the door lintel. Green light wandered on the Illusory Door, using the curse to establish initial contact, like grasping an iron chain in the mist, then approaching in large strides.

Ji Yan Yue did not pay attention, only roughly judged the time, then turned her feet, casually selected one revered Yan Luo, and killed straight towards him.

The one she selected was exactly Eight Halls City King.

Seeing this world's true person approaching, City King did not fear but laughed. He wiped his hands open in front, a total of eighteen array discs arranged in a fan shape.

This was not a simple stacking of array discs; each array disc was personally made by him, and there were inseparable connections between the array discs.

In this battle, all losses were reimbursed by the organization, so he was rarely extravagant once.

Thus, he had this style--

Linked Arrays Kill!

The heart of the divine spirit responded to heaven and earth. Array patterns lit up one after another, drawing yuan force like tides.

So-called heavenly thunder hooks earthly fire, it is hail beating down flowers.

At this moment, eighteen array discs burst forth with strong light, like thousands of troops and horses mixed together--

Ji Yan Yue's index finger inserted straight into City King's eyebrows, making a crisp sound as her finger broke his skull.

In this sound, the array discs stopped one by one, destroyed one by one. Having lost main control power, the group of dragons without a head collapsed like a defeated army.

And City King's corpse hung down, sliding and falling from Ji Yan Yue's finger.

It could be seen that this finger, at this moment, was like gold cast, emitting dazzling brilliance that was hard to look at directly.

Da Jing imperial family secret transmission, unusable by those not of the heavenly son bloodline, Gao Huang Sever Life Finger!

Penetrating dragon qi and imperial majesty, cutting off life path and fate momentum.

After failing to kill Yan Luo twice in succession, Ji Yan Yue had already grasped the reality, found the method to pierce Yin Cao's rules, and used this style of Gao Huang Sever Life Finger to break the illusion, pierce Yin Cao, and truly kill the opponent!

Eight Halls City King, dead in battle!

So-called Yan Luo were extremely vicious, killing people like hemp. They never cared about human lives; as long as the reward was enough, they could also not care about their own lives. But do not expect them to have any comradeship.

Even except Wu Guan King, not one was willing to collect a corpse for a colleague.

Once City King was dead, the remaining Yan Luo suddenly scattered like birds and beasts. The death of a rabbit does not make a fox sad; rather, they spoke of a great disaster approaching and saw who could run fastest.

And Ji Yan Yue did not pay attention to them, circling back in the air, welcoming that Illusory Door.

Killing one or two Yan Luo was not the purpose; using City King's death to verify the rules of the Yin Cao world was her aim!

At this moment, she already had some insight, exactly in this sinister hell, killing out a bright clear sky. Her large sleeves flew, her plain hand reached out, reopening her True Fate King Realm and grasping it in her hand, inversely curving it into a narrow knife with a yin-engraved dragon pattern.

At this moment, Yin Guan had just approached the Illusory Door. She directly pushed the door open, holding the knife and killing out.

Like divine might descending from nine heavens, pouncing and killing rebellious ants in the mortal world.

It was the so-called, Heavenly Splendor Cut Dust Knife!

That year, Jing Tai Zu Ji Yu Su cultivated the Heavenly Emperor Dharma Body, opened up a heavenly realm, commanded all sides, claimed to be the strongest derive Dao in ancient history, and was invincible even without national power.

Although her True Fate King Realm was far from comparable, and having experienced reopening, it was unprecedentedly weak. But holding it as a narrow knife at this moment could also make gods and ghosts avoid!
