Chapter 571A - City Ruins



Shen Yuanyin’s face was covered with a fine veil. Her appearance was spotless and her temperament was even more chilling. Of the 12 women that followed behind her in the beginning, only seven remained. The others had vanished without a trace; what happened to them could be imagined.


With their clothes fluttering in the wind, the group of eight flew into the ruins. It was only now that they turned their heads.


A giant shadow stood far away in the depths of the ruins. Its four eyes looked deeply at them before turning and leaving.


Bang –


Bang –


With every step it took, the earth shook.


The long street within the ruins was dead and barren. On the houses that lined the sides, the doors began to lightly squeak. Pairs of blood red eyes peeked out, staring at the newcomers from the tiny gaps.


Or, to be more accurate, most of these eyes fell upon Shen Yuanyin alone. Her gaze was faint and indifferent. As she looked at these eager and violent eyes, her face was as cold as jade, without any fluctuations.


Suddenly, there was a loud roaring. A horridly decayed door shattered into countless pieces. Gray smog flew out, and a shrill cry echoed through the air.


A purple and red mottled figure rushed out soon after. This was a giant withered corpse. All of its flesh and blood had dried away, clinging onto the surface of its bones. Its hair was white and dry as straw, fluttering about recklessly in the wind.


It howled out deep and low, revealing dark yellow teeth. Two blood red eyes shone deep within its eye sockets, filled with a bloodthirsty greed.


This was a withered corpse that could leave its room for a short time.


Shen Yuanyin lifted a hand and tapped the void in front of her. There were no fluctuations of strength in her actions and her movements seemed as light as the wind.


The withered corpse hurtling forward like a bolt of lightning was suddenly blown backwards. Sparks lit up on its chest like firecrackers, wildly spurting out.


By the time the sparks faded away, all that was left intact in a puddle of purple and red meat was the creature’s head. Its mouth bit up and down as it slowly wriggled its way forward.


Shen Yuanyin turned and left. The female cultivators behind her silently followed in tow. When their figures rounded the corner, there was a series of loud crashing sounds as several wooden doors were blown open and a number of withered corpses rushed away, wildly grabbing at the ruined meat on the ground.


As for that wriggling head, another withered corpse picked it up and held it tight to its chest. It returned to its room and slowly licked and slurped the wriggling head, a happy look on its face.


After several breaths of time, the street became peaceful once more, as quiet as it was in the beginning…a vacant room that a person could temporarily stay in had appeared just like that.


On the other end of the long street, Lei Fang gulped, his complexion turning pale white. His eyeballs spun about as if he were calculating something.


After several breaths of time, he turned and spoke to the two people behind him. Then, the three turned and followed behind.


The current Sea of Purgatory was simply far too dangerous. If they could grab onto a large thigh, that would be for the best.



Within the Sea of Purgatory, there was no clear division between daytime and nighttime. All day long, the skies were dusky gray and filled with rolling fog and clouds. This atmosphere left one feeling particularly depressed.


Qin Yu opened his eyes. He silently calculated the time. Another two days had passed. He gently furrowed his eyebrows.


There was a one month time limit here. Yet, it was the sixth day already and he hadn’t even entered into the depths of the Sea of Purgatory.


If things continued like this, then he feared the deadline would arrive before he could find the Water Marid. As for whether or not he could violate the time limit and not go back…


Hoho, that was simply impossible. Once Ying Capital’s grand array formation closed, unless it was opened from the outside then there would be no way to leave.


It had to be known that Ying Capital’s great array formation was constructed on the day the Chu Empire was founded. It had been constantly reinforced for 30 million years. Even a Calamity Immortal would find it near impossible to shake.


And the next time it opened might be several million years in the future. No matter who it was, anyone that stayed here would become nothing but dirt in the ground.


He couldn’t delay any further.


Qin Yu stood up. After probing outside and determining that there was nothing wrong, he flicked his sleeves and opened the door, walking outside.


His steps weren’t quick. But every time he took a step forward, he seemed to flicker through space.


In several blinks of the eye, Qin Yu had arrived at the edge of the ruins. He shot into the skies.


But at this time, his complexion immediately changed. He shouted out loud and immediately stopped in midair. He raised a fist and punched outward.



Bang –


There was a deep hollow ringing sound, as if waves were breaking out. A huge web appeared from nothingness, a massive indentation in it from the force of his punch.


Qin Yu took advantage of the repelling strength and drew backwards. In the next moment, the massive web curled up into a ball.


A giant spider appeared outside the ruins. It stared tightly at the retreating Qin Yu, its mouth open in an angry scream.


If it weren’t for Qin Yu’s quick reactions he would have been wrapped up in that spider web. If that happened, he would likely have become spider food.


Qin Yu’s heart chilled. He suddenly felt a faint numbness on his hand. He looked down and saw that the surface of his fist was being corroded away.


The tiny bit of poison was sucked up by his index finger in an instant. Flesh and blood wriggled on his wound, soon regenerating back to normal.


Roar –


The giant spider outside the city suddenly roared out loud, an ominous light shining in its many eyes. It glared at Qin Yu, its gaze full of burning greed and desire. Its massive feet swung about, tearing open giant cracks in the ground.


Qin Yu’s heart sank. He found the reason for the spider’s sudden reaction. A bit of his blood had stained the spider web. The formidable blood energy of an Emperor level Demon Body was undoubtedly a fatal temptation to this monster beast.


Roar –


There was an earth-shaking roar from the side. The giant spider seemed to sense incoming danger, but before it could escape a massive fist had already arrived, striking it and sending it flying away.


A figure began to appear in the gradually fading mist and dust. This figure stood in front of the spider web, its eyes closed as it tasted something. There was a drunken, infatuated look on its face.


Qin Yu’s pupils shrank. This figure was unexpectedly the decayed corpse with the terrifying aura he encountered some time ago.


Perhaps because it had swallowed some flesh and blood essence, the decayed condition of this creature’s body had improved. A black energy lingered around its body.


There was a sudden palpitation in Qin Yu’s soul. A terrifying feeling surged out from the depths of his heart, leaving him frozen in place.


He looked up and his eyes collided with the gaze of the decayed corpse. A deep voice resounded directly in his heart, “My prey, you cannot escape…”


He had been targeted!


But, the decayed corpse was the same as the giant spider; it clearly held some dread towards the city ruins. Although its eyes were blazing with heated desire, it still hesitated and didn’t move forward.


Qin Yu relaxed a little. His thoughts rapidly raced. But before he could think about a plan to leave, from somewhere in the southeast region of the city ruins, there were a number of heaven-shaking rumbles, followed by the excited screams of withered corpses.


In the blink of an eye, countless houses collapsed and dust soared into the skies!



Shen Yuanyin lifted a hand and wiped the corners of her lips. The bright red color that dyed the back of her fair and clear hands appeared even more alarming.


There was a pool of blood on the ground. A cold air still sizzled upwards from it, and it was even mixed with small pieces of ice.


The hidden dangers in her body had become even more serious.


As she listened to the chaos outside, she furrowed her eyebrows for a moment before restoring herself.


She placed her veil back on. When she pushed open the door and emerged, she was still the ice-cold master of Nineheaven Mirrormoon Palace. There was not the slightest trace of weakness in her demeanor.


With a flick of her sleeves, several withered corpses that had broken through the walls froze in midair. They fell to the ground and shattered into countless blocks.


“We’re leaving.”


Her blood was enough to cause these withered corpses to go crazy. She could no longer stay in the city ruins.


Rumble rumble –


The sounds of collapsing walls came in from all sides. It was unknown just how many withered corpses were rushing here with frenzied blood-red eyes.


Lei Fang’s face turned blue. He thought that he had finally managed to luck out and grab onto a thick thigh, yet who would have imagined that he needed to run for his life in the next instant.


But there was no other choice he could make right now. If he left this group of Immortal Sect cultivators, he feared he would simply die even faster.


Shen Yuanyin stepped forward. She was still calm and collected, her movements light and breezy. But wherever she passed, nothing remained alive.


The Sublime Lost Emotion Code…what she lost were her own seven emotions and six desires. This also included her empathy towards all life. When she attacked, she was brutal and ruthless, brooking no chance for survival!
