The dawn cut through the sky, and the blue sky was as clear and transparent as a washed sapphire. There was not a single cloud in the sky, and the strong wind that had been howling all night had long since disappeared. The red sun rises from the east, emitting dazzling light, illuminating Tianchi in a golden color.
Emperor Qin was dumbfounded and stared at the top of the cliff, standing still.
He kept doing this for half an hour.
As usual, after the blood jade selects the inheritor, he will wake up several others and let them return to the shore.
But the sudden change just now made him decide to wait a little longer.
After a while, there seemed to be slight movement in Qin Mingyue's pile of clothes.
Emperor Qin went over curiously and found that besides the woman's clothes, a storage ring, and a string of stone chains on the ground.
He reached out and picked it up, feeling slightly surprised. This is just an ordinary bracelet. The stones on it are only worth a few spiritual stones, and the color is also very ordinary. Why does Qin Mingyue, a woman who comes from a wealthy family and has always been picky, have such a stone chain?
Also, why not put it in a ring?
He weighed the stone chain in his hand for a few times and sensed it with his spiritual consciousness. He didn't notice anything strange, so Qin Huang casually put it back to its place.
There was finally movement from above the stone wall.
A cloud of white mist flew out from the attic, and a hazy and graceful figure could be vaguely seen, slowly descending from mid-air.
Under the gaze of Emperor Qin, Bai Ying came directly to the shore, and the clothes, rings, and stone chains on the ground immediately flew up and entered the white mist.
After a while, the white mist dissipated, revealing a face that would captivate the country.
The hairpin on the temples is slanted, and the peach face is red. Under Dan Fuchunshan's eyebrows, a pair of eyes were like the lake at this moment, deep and calm, with a touch of indifference, as if nothing in the world could fit into her eyes.
Qin Huang looked surprised: "Mingyue, you, where is your blood jade?"
Qin Mingyue nodded, her voice a little hoarse: "I have put it away."
"Very good!" Emperor Qin said, stroking his palms: "After returning to the capital, you quickly choose a cave to refine it, and I will protect it for you personally!"
Qin Mingyue nodded slightly, her eyes swept over the stone chain in her palm, and a trace of imperceptible anger flashed across her pretty face.
Emperor Qin didn't pay attention and continued: "What happened here is that I will go and wake up Yuan Yong and others."
"There's no hurry," Qin Mingyue stopped: "The ancestor just passed down the decree."
"Ancestor, which ancestor?" Emperor Qin was surprised and delighted: "Ancestor Gouxie, has his spirit appeared?"
Qin Mingyue had no expression on her face, slowly moved to the front of Emperor Qin, and whispered: "Ancestor said..."
"What did you say?" Emperor Qin's mind wavered. It seemed that this sentence was very important and he had to hear it clearly. He involuntarily moved closer to the woman.
Suddenly, the hairs all over his body stood up, and there was a sudden warning sign in his heart. There seemed to be a huge crisis ahead!
Before he could react, the woman's index finger was already on his forehead.
Emperor Qin suddenly stood motionless, his magic power stagnated, and the blood in his body almost solidified.
It seemed as if something was leaving the body.
He was horrified in his heart and made a "hahaha" sound in his mouth, but could not utter a single word.
The woman didn't answer, but looked at the other person's eyebrows with blazing eyes. A mass of red was slowly gathering.
The red color accumulated thicker and thicker, and finally turned into a bright blood droplet as big as a pigeon egg, slowly oozing out from his forehead.
The woman twisted her fingers together, brought the blood droplets to her lips, and swallowed it in one gulp.
Two blushes appeared on her cheeks, "Qin Mingyue" closed her eyes tightly, and her aura began to rise steadily, reaching the second, third, and fourth levels of the golden elixir, and finally stopped at the sixth level of the golden elixir.
There was a bit of regret on the woman's face, she reached out and took out the blood jade from her arms, looked at it for a moment, and finally shook her head and stuffed it back.
The unrefined blood jade was useless to her at the moment.
"We have to recover to Nascent Soul as soon as possible!" She sighed in her heart.
Emperor Qin was sweating profusely and his face was as pale as paper, as if he was seriously ill.
As the blood bead leaked out, his cultivation instantly fell from the ninth level of the Golden Core to the sixth level of the Golden Core.
The coagulated blood finally circulated, and he regained the ability to speak.
"You, you are not Mingyue! Who on earth are you?" he said tremblingly.
"You don't need to know who I am, and I have no intention of harming you. However, you must act in accordance with my will from now on." The woman said calmly.
Emperor Qin's heart was burning with hatred, and the expression on his face changed several times, and finally he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I promise you!"
The confinement on my body disappeared.
Qin Huang loosened his arms, suddenly took a step forward, quickly made a hand seal, and a mask of light appeared out of thin air, surrounding the two of them.
"Go to hell -" a look of determination flashed in his eyes, he slapped his hands on his lower abdomen, opened his mouth and spat out, and a golden light as big as an egg suddenly appeared!
Qin Huang's already pale face instantly turned pale, his whole body was trembling, and his breath was sluggish.
The golden elixir's light was a little dim. At this time, driven by the magic power, the drops were spinning rapidly, and a terrifying force of destruction filled the surroundings.
The golden elixir explodes!
The blood jade is taken away, the cultivation level plummets, and the path is cut off. What's the point of living?
It is better to die with the enemy than to survive!
I am the king of the Qin Dynasty, how can I be manipulated by others!
"Qin Mingyue's" expression changed, as if she didn't expect the other party to be so decisive. She snorted softly and pointed her jade finger, and the mask of light suddenly disappeared.
She retreated quickly, until she was a hundred feet away. The golden elixir exploded with a bang, and infinite air waves surged wildly, rolling and roaring across a radius of dozens of feet.
"Qin Mingyue" was unscathed.
Emperor Qin was shattered to pieces and died with his eyes open!
…
Amidst the loud noise, the three princes who were in trance woke up with horror.
Looking at the falling blood rain and sensing the violent fluctuations of spiritual energy in the air, the expressions of the three people changed drastically, and they looked at the woman in mid-air in shock.
"Qin Mingyue?" The third prince glanced at the mist that was gradually dissipating around his body, and said in an urgent tone, "Where is the blood jade? Did you take the blood jade?"
"Who are you?" Qin Yuanyong shouted sharply.
He has far more knowledge than the two brothers, and in just a moment, he has already guessed the general outline of the matter. This woman with a more cold temperament and a sinister face is definitely not Qin Mingyue!
"Seize, seize the body?" The second prince suddenly woke up and trembled all over.
What kind of existence is it that can take away the body from the golden elixir?
The woman was furious, and she was deeply offended by Emperor Qin's desperate fight.
The blood-colored jade pendant was displayed in her hand, and her voice was as cold as frost:
"This opportunity has been obtained by me. Your Majesty has disobeyed me and has been killed by me."
"If you wish to die or live, make a decision quickly! If you want to live, bow your head and obey my orders! If you want to die, then be the same as your Majesty!"
"Don't kill me, we want to live, we want to live!" The second prince immediately begged for mercy.
The eldest prince and the third prince remained calm, squinting at the woman's movements, and using force on their feet, they quietly approached the lake shore.
The woman sneered, stretched out her hand and drew a rune in the air. In an instant, a strong wind blew up on the mirror-level lake surface, white waves rolled, and a huge whirlpool appeared around the two of them, sweeping them towards the bottom of the lake.
"Senior, have mercy on me!" The third prince begged repeatedly as his soul emerged.
The whirlpool disappeared immediately, and the turbulent waves carried the second and third princes to the shore. Only Qin Yuanyong was still struggling in the middle of the lake.
"Senior, forgive me! Yuan Yong doesn't dare anymore!" The eldest prince finally gave in.
The three of them put on their clothes in embarrassment on the shore. A red light hit the place where Qin Mingyue's clothes were just now, and the woman's order followed:
"You must blast this place away quickly and hand over all the rubble to me. Don't leave even half of it behind!"
The three of them were puzzled, but they did not dare to slack off in their actions. They each took out their special magic weapons and blasted them wildly at the marked spot.
The power of the bombardment of the three Jindan Daoist can be imagined, even a small mountain can collapse suddenly. However, on this ground, each blow could only open a gap eight or nine inches wide, sending up several pieces of gravel.
What made them even more discouraged was that the ground seemed to be alive and was slowly healing!
"Quick, move faster!" "Qin Mingyue" urged impatiently, opening and closing her hands in front of her chest, gathering hundreds of gravels into a straight line and sending them to her.
The woman stretched out her hand to fish out a few pebbles, and concentrated her magic power on her hand. The pebbles suddenly turned into countless trickles, which scattered on the lake.
For a time, the three people bombarded, the ground healed, and the woman crushed the rocks, forming a strange and busy scene.
Less than half an hour later, the combined efforts of the three golden elixirs were finally slightly better, and a large pit with a width of three feet and a depth of three feet appeared on the lake shore. More gravel continued to pour towards the woman, almost wrapping her up, and the calm lake below her feet was already covered with a thin layer of dust.
The woman's movements finally slowed down, and she couldn't hide her disappointment.
"Stop!" A cold voice shouted, and then, a small mountain of gravel was loaded into the ring.
The three princes held magic weapons and looked at the woman panting.
The encounter in the lake made them understand that in this place with some mysterious restrictions, even if the woman seemed to be only in the middle stage of the Golden Core, the three of them joining forces would definitely not be her enemy.
But what else will happen next?
…
The woman stared coldly at the shrinking pit, a trace of determination flashing across her face.
"Stand here and don't move." She left these words and hurriedly flew to the attic on the stone wall.
The three of them looked at each other, each recovering their magic power.
A quarter of an hour later, a slight kacha sound came from the attic, as if something had been touched.
The three of them suddenly felt a lightness on their bodies, and some kind of gravity suddenly disappeared.
The air ban disappeared.
Qin Yuanyong's eyes flashed.
It’s not just the air ban that has disappeared. When the woman returned to the ground and ordered them to continue the bombardment, the three of them were surprised to find that not only was the hole created ten times larger than before, but the healing speed of the ground had also become extremely slow, less than one-tenth of what it was before.
In an instant, another hill-like pile of gravel was piled together.
The woman reached out and put the gravel into the space ring again. She swept her consciousness into the ring, frowned and shouted sharply: "Stop!"
Ignoring the surprised looks of the three people, she came to a corner of the lakeshore alone, crossed her legs and quickly entered into meditation.
In the deepest part of the magma hell, the Nanyin Lihuo that had existed for thousands of years began to shake violently.
A thin layer of sweat gradually formed on the woman's forehead.
At this moment, the three princes looked at each other and cautiously moved towards the woman...
ps: There are still a few chapters that will end this volume. Considering the plot these days, the pace may slow down.
Also: Which one is more reasonable (neither will affect the plot): the three princes are destroyed together or one or two are left behind?
