Chapter 740: Rebirth!
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations
After the reappearance of the Three Mountains of the Ying Sea, many demons started to make their way into the Ying Sea as well . Everybody wanted to take a little something back from their adventures and perhaps return home with some exotic and rare treasures inside the Ying Sea .
The demons still remaining in the East Sea were greatly reduced at this point in time . However, the demons that appeared in front of Mu Yu and company had three demonic lord stage dragons amongst their ranks, along with several other dragons of lower levels of cultivation .
The three demonic lord stage dragons did not even include the two that Lin Feng had chased away previously .
As they observed the invader’s line-up, both Mu Yu and Lu Ning felt their hearts sink . Lu Ning was even considering the possibility of taking Luo Yao away and run away – in the end, the demons were here for Mu Yu .
The demons had something else in mind, however . They circled the company as barriers were set up all around the void; they were determined not to let a single person escape . Lu Ning dispelled all other thoughts as she knew she had no choice but to face the enemy together with Mu Yu and the others .
In the last chaotic battle, Mu Yu misplaced the voice-projection crystal that allowed him to contact his seniors and juniors . There was no way of contacting the Luofu Mystical Island or Huang Ming to call for aid . Their only hope was that this place was not too far away from the Luofu Mystical Island .
If anybody from the Luofu Mystical Island detected anything wrong, a patrol party would be sent forth to investigate . However, till then, it was up to Mu Yu and the rest to support themselves and stay alive .
The only problem was that the difference in battle prowess between the two parties were just too great . The battle had barely just begun when the humans started to feel the intense pressure .
Mu Yu and Lu Ning were barely able to take care of themselves . Luo Yao, Yun Jinxi and the others could only rely upon themselves and team up with the other aurous core and foundation establishment stage cultivators to face off the lower-level demons that came upon them .
Yun Jinxi and Cao Zhendong glared at the demons before them as flames poured out of their eyes . Furious thoughts of revenge and vengeance masked over the confusion and fear of the ambush as they started channeling their own abhijnas and magic items to battle the demonic commander stage dragons with fearless determination .
The Luofu Mystical Island had always been in constant conflict against the demons at the border of the two worlds . There were times when demons sent a force to invade the East Sea, and the Luofu Mystical Island frequently sent forth cultivators into the Barren Expanses to attack the demons . Thus, even though Yun Jinxi and the others were still young and their levels of cultivation were not too high, their experiences with real-life combat and battles were not lacking .
The only problem was that fiery wrath was not enough to plug the gap in numbers and battle prowess . Furthermore, the dragons were here for revenge and vengeance as well and their level of determination rivaled that of Yun Jinxi and Cao Zhendong .
Not before long, Yun Jinxi and the others were already at a heavy disadvantage . Luo Yao, who was only in the Qi cultivation stage, was even worse .
Mu Yu was able to tear himself away and support Luo Yao initially, but was very quickly forced to concentrate on defending himself . It came to a point where he had to choice but to distance himself from Luo Yao as much as possible – otherwise, the ripple effects of an epic battle between a nascent soul stage cultivator and a demonic lord stage dragon could sweep him away and could even result in his demise .
Luo Yao was being chased by a raging jade dragon . Luo Yao tried his best to dodge left and right, but it seemed like he was about to be ripped open .
He could see, out of the corner of his eye, that Cao Zhendong had already lost one entire arm . Half of his body was drenched in blood, his hair was in a mess and he just looked so dreadful and pathetic . He did not even have time to treat his wounds as he had to focus on dodging the attacks of another dragon . After every attack that he managed to dodge, he had to focus all his attention on dodging the next one . Not before long, his defensive magic item was completely destroyed .
The golden hair on Yun Jinxi’s head that used to be radiant like the sun was not riddled with bloodstains and dirt, and the original splendor had completely disappeared . Her rosy lips lost their flavorful colors as well as she stretched her very limits to repel the demonic general stage dragons, but a greater danger was about to befall the young lady .
It was dangerous to the point where she felt all hope was lost . A demonic commander stage dragon that had already formed the aurous core was lunging towards her with blazing blue flames pouring out of its gaping jaws . Her defensive magic items and the protective mana surrounding her were torched away in an instant as the dragon came for her right away and was just about to gobble her up .
This was all distant to Luo Yao at this point, as his physical body was being ravaged by another jade dragon!
Clouds of blood blew up around the tall young man but he could no longer feel any pain .
"I…I should be dead…" Luo Yao discovered, to his great surprise, that he could still think and his brain was still working . This gave him an extremely strange feeling as he was practically watching his own body crumble into a puddle of flesh and blood .
"What’s… What’s going on?" Luo Yan was terrified, but eventually realized that he was inside a circular pearl-like object as golden mist rolled around in front of him . Purple light flickered all around, but what was strange was the fact that he felt like he knew what this was .
Luo Yao recovered after a while . His physical body had been completely destroyed, and the ‘him’ that was inside this strange golden pearl was just his soul .
The purple light surged into his soul as he began to feel murky and an uncanny feeling came over him . Uncountable and continuous pictures flashed through his mind, things that he could not connect together and did not know the meaning of .
He stumbled along and started to realize that his soul was starting to exude the same purple radiance .
Multiple thoughts and worries clouded his consciousness . Some of the principles that he held on so dearly were kept, and actually became stronger and more amplified . In the end, there was only one thought, one voice, that was left inside his mind . A voice that shouted again and again:
"I can’t die! I need to save them! Senior Mu and Jinxi cannot die!"
