Refining the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 770

Chapter 654A – Immortal Origin’s Punishment

Within the world of his mind, Qin Yu’s black robes surged behind him and his hair whipped in the wind. His eyes shined like twin suns, making all evil spirits tremble.

His gaze was faint and his ice cold voice echoed through the world. “If I’ve killed you once, I can kill you a thousand times, ten thousand times. If you want to take revenge…then come and get it!”

With shrieks of sorrow and fear, the corpses turned and fled into the black rivers. Then, along with the waters, they dissolved into fog and disappeared.

A deep voice echoed through the world of his mind. “This is only the first time. We will meet each other again in the future. Believe me, the next time won’t be so simple!”

Shua –

Qin Yu opened his eyes, a sharp light erupting from his pupils like arrows that could shoot through stars and collapse the skies!

..

Qin Yu was fine and unharmed. In fact, with the support from the heart demon’s tempering, he even experienced a kind of transformation, making him seem more calm and steady. A cold chill rose up in Emperor Zhou’s heart and his complexion became ugly. He suddenly felt as if he had lost his final chance to kill Qin Yu.

“Ahh!” Emperor Ying roared in anger. He had summoned the Qin Empire Cavalry, not hesitating to sacrifice their lives to stop Solitary Westgate and the others. After having given so much, how could he accept this final result? And, the most terrifying part was the heart-shaking potential that Qin Yu had revealed today. Once he rose in the future and illuminated the highest heavens, he would surely not forgive the Qin Empire for their betrayal.

Purple Moon let out a long breath and nodded at Qin Yu. She didn’t say anything, because practical actions always spoke louder than any words.

“I’ve troubled you. Thank you.” Qin Yu’s voice was calm and without much feeling. But the more it was like this, the more it indicated that he would mark this in his mind.

Purple Moon said in a soft voice, “I won’t be able to help you from now on. I need to rest for some time.”

Shua –

She took a step forward. At the same time, the purple moon and blue sun phantoms both vanished.

Solitary Westgate flew over. He looked Qin Yu over and asked, “Qin Yu, are you alright?” He glanced at where Purple Moon had vanished, knowing enough to not ask anything about it.

Qin Yu nodded. “I’m great…so perhaps some people will be left disappointed.” He looked up, his eyes as sharp as blades, “The trap you set for me, I will remember it!”

After receiving this ‘great gift’ from others, he surely had to express his thanks. Moreover, today was the best chance to deal with the Immortal Sect.

The Nether Domain Master stiffened. A chill rose from his spine and went up through his head. His face paled as an intense threatening feeling shrouded his mind.

Everything had spun out of his control. Anger began to burn in his heart. It had to be known that he had come here with his true body. If an accident were to occur, nothing else would matter.

Since Qin Yu woke up, the Buddhist Nation Sovereign had been strangely silent. At this time he opened his mouth and suddenly said, “Demon Sovereign, our killing trap has completely collapsed today, but you still shouldn’t be so arrogant. Because besides this, the Immortal Sect also has another gift for you. No…to be more accurate, it is a gift for both you and Shen Yuanyin, a great present to celebrate your joyous marriage!”

Qin Yu’s complexion immediately darkened and his voice seemed to come from the nine nether hells. “Buddhist Nation Sovereign, I am warning you. If you dare to harm her even in the least, I vow I will use everything at my disposal to burn your bones to ashes!”

The Buddhist Nation Sovereign laughed, “Demon Sovereign, do you still think there is any chance of reconciliation between you and me? Even if I didn’t touch Shen Yuanyin, we would both try and kill each other without hesitation as long as the opportunity appeared.”

His laughter came to a halting stop. His emotionless face caused a cold chill to pass through one’s heart. “If so, why should I care about your threat? Or perhaps, the more you seem to care about her, the more I want to destroy her!”

Qin Yu’s heart violently shrank. Ning Ling was currently in the Demonic Path’s small world and there shouldn’t be anything capable of harming her if she was within the protective walls of the Holy Palace. But the Buddhist Nation Sovereign’s actions clearly indicated that he had done something.

This type of unknown danger caused his heart to chill, but that iciness was soon replaced by killing intent. “Buddhist Nation Sovereign! This is my last warning – do not touch her!”

The Buddhist Nation Sovereign’s lips lifted up in a smile. Without responding to Qin Yu, he turned and glanced at the Nether Domain Master. The Nether Domain Master was silent for a moment before he nodded.

The two had come to an agreement…they would kill Shen Yuanyin!

This was not just to take revenge against Qin Yu. It was also to enrage him. This was perhaps because they had realized this might be their only method of dealing with him.

This was similar to how they dealt with the Dao Arena Master in the past. To value love and affection was good, but sometimes it might be a fatal weakness. For instance, after Solitary Westgate lost his wife and child, his cultivation stagnated and he had been unable to make a breakthrough with the knot in his heart.

Qin Yu was also someone of such deep sentiment. One could see this from his unwavering devotion to Shen Yuanyin after all these years and everything else he had done for her. If so, then after killing Shen Yuanyin, there was a high chance he might come under a tremendous psychological attack that would make it impossible for him to rise any further.

This wasn't absolute. But, the Immortal Sect had to give it a try. Just like the Buddhist Nation Sovereign said, the two sides were enemies anyways, so there was no reason not to. And if they didn’t try to limit Qin Yu and gave him sufficient time to grow, who would be able to stop him in the future?

If that were to happen, then they would simply be waiting for the Immortal Sect to be destroyed. This was the only path available to them!

The Buddhist Nation Sovereign glanced at Qin Yu, a look of pity on his face. “Today, the Immortal Sect’s Buddhist Nation and Netherworld lineages both celebrate the marriage of the Demon Sovereign…I hope that you will both enjoy this gift.”

He gathered his hands together in prayer.

Rumble rumble –

From the skies above, a gray altar appeared. Its dead and desolate color caused one’s heart to shake in fear.

“Ahhh!”

“Ahhh!”

The unconscious Zhao Empire soldiers in the pits in the earth suddenly opened their eyes. Their faces contorted as they screamed in pain. They wildly flung their hands and feet about in terror, but there was nothing they could do to free themselves.

Rumble rumble –

A loud thunderous rumble came from deep below as if a great beast were awakening. The pits rapidly sank and caved in further, dirt pouring in to bury everyone inside.

In a single breath of time, the three million strong army of the Zhao Empire had all been buried alive deep below the earth. But, their screams still echoed through the dirt.

Despair, fear, helplessness!

The gray altar in the skies suddenly trembled. Faint traces of blue and white energy rose up, condensing into a giant balance scale above the altar.

The balance scale was tilted to one side. A round bead was placed atop there. Qin Yu looked at it and his complexion changed. Ning Ling’s figure was flashing within this bead, and the aura it emitted was the exact same too.

Suddenly, black motes of light appeared on the other side of the scale. The number rapidly increased as they condensed into a pitch black sphere of light. As this sphere continued to grow larger, the other side of the scale that represented Shen Yuanyin started to slowly rise.

Qin Yu’s heart shook. He had no idea what this meant, but his intuition told him that he absolutely could not allow this scale to reach equilibrium.

Without hesitation, he took a step forward and punched out. Wild strength howled forth like a flood dragon, crashing into the gray altar in the skies.

The Buddhist Nation Sovereign lightly said, “Useless.”

The strength of this fist seemed like it had passed through a shadow. It directly raced through the altar, not causing any damage to it.

But at this moment, the black ball had thoroughly condensed. The two sides of the scale had achieved balance.

The Nether Domain Master took in a deep breath, his pale face full of respect and awe. He bowed towards the altar and said, “I ask Immortal Origin to cast down a curse and kill the rebel!”

The Buddhist Nation Sovereign’s eyes were like still wells. “I ask Immortal Origin for help!”

Bang –

The gray altar erupted with a heaven-whelming aura. Wild fluctuations of strength crashed about. Trillions of rules were shaken and sent howling through the world.

Light cracking sounds filled the air. On the scale, the black ball and the other bead with Ning Ling’s figure inside were both smashed apart.

Hum –

The balance scale and the altar both vanished.

Qin Yu’s breath caught in his throat. His heart suddenly felt empty, as if he had lost something incomparably important.

The Buddhist Nation Sovereign said, “Demon Sovereign, allow me to remind you that you do not have much time left. When the red line reaches the elbow, everything will end. After this incident, I know that you will not hesitate to kill me and the Nether Domain Master…if so, we await your arrival in the Immortal Sect.”

His figure flickered and he appeared beside the Nether Domain Master. Space shattered around them and they both disappeared from sight.

Emperor Zhou gave Qi Yu a profound look. He turned and walked away.

Emperor Ying nearly broke his teeth from clenching his jaws. But in this current situation, no matter how angry he was he couldn’t sever connections with the Immortal Sect. Otherwise the situation of the Qin Empire would only worsen.

Bang –

Space cracked and he stepped inside.

Unless it was like today where a great trap had been placed in advance, it was almost impossible to kill a supreme being of the world. If a supreme being wished to leave, it was difficult for anyone to make them stay behind, even if the other side had an advantage.

Moreover, Qin Yu’s mind was in chaos right now and he wasn’t in the mood to chase after everyone. When he recalled the altar and balance scale that appeared, his heart grew increasingly restless.

He nodded towards Solitary Westgate and the others. Then, he directly tore through space. By summoning the strength of the Holy Palace, he opened up a transmission channel.

Soon, in the Demonic Path’s small world, space split apart and Qin Yu walked out with a dignified expression. His figure howled as he flew towards the Holy Palace.

“We greet Your Majesty the Holy Monarch!”

The Holy Nether Guards at the front all fell to their knees, surprise in their eyes. This was the first time they had ever seen the Holy Monarch in such a fl.u.s.tered state. Had something important occurred?

As the master of the Holy Palace, Qin Yu could of course pass through freely. Several steps later, he arrived in a great hall in the inner palace.

You Qi was standing beneath a pavilion. Her eyebrows furrowed together and she had an anxious expression. When she saw Qin Yu arrive, her eyes lit up.

“Your Majesty, you’ve returned!”

Qin Yu drew in a deep breath. “You Qi, where is Ning Ling?”

You Qi’s heart skipped a beat, “What is it?”

“I will explain it to you after this!”

“Sister felt a little tired so she went inside to rest…”

Before she finished speaking, Qin Yu turned and walked away. But just as he walked into the hall, Ning Ling walked out, a happy smile on her face. “Your Majesty.”

Hu –

Qin Yu subconsciously let out a breath of relief. He stepped forward and took hold of her hands. “Good. Do you feel tired? Do you feel strange anywhere?”

Looking at his worried expression, Ning Ling flushed red. She glanced at You Qi who was looking at them curiously from behind and said, “I’m fine. There is no need for His Majesty to worry about me.”

Qin Yu laughed and held onto her hands, his eyes sweeping across her fair fingers and palms. Suddenly, his pupils shrank for a moment before he returned to normal. “It’s good that you’re fine. I’ve already dealt with all my business outside, so I can spend more time accompanying the both of you.”

Nine Ling gave him a rebuking look. How could he publically say such words that he should be saying in the privacy of their bed chambers…she never discovered that on the wrist of her left hand, there was an additional red dot.
