Chapter 1254 - 1247: The Woman Who Stands Beside Jiqiong
Chapter 1254 - 1247: The Woman Who Stands Beside Jiqiong
"Ye Xuan, go have a look." Lan Xiaobu said without hesitation upon seeing Ku Yue.
He knew very well how terrifying the Ku Clan could be.
If Ku Yue were allowed to develop, this vast domain might suffer. This woman was even more extreme than Jiqiong.
As Ye Xuan controlled the vast Star Core to approach, Ku Yue and the three others stopped their discussions and looked towards Ye Xuan.
Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu had already stepped out of the vast Star Core. They definitely wouldn't allow Ku Yue to escape this time.
Once Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu left, Zuo Shanyi immediately sent out a God Origin Source Principle of the Great Dao.
The God Origin Source Principle—others didn't have it, but he could release it anytime.
Previously, with Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu atop the vast Star Core, he dared not make any moves at all.
Now with the two gone, how could Zuo Shanyi miss such an opportunity?
Indeed, Ye Xuan didn't notice his actions.
Zuo Shanyi was thrilled; his tiny strand of God Source Principle had been utilized by the entity within the vast Star Core, even stimulating its own Taoist Rhythm.
Zuo Shanyi didn't linger; he had done enough.
Mo Wuji was puzzled about why Zuo Shanyi hadn't come down when suddenly, Zuo Shanyi rushed out of the vast Star Core.
An Ting followed Zuo Shanyi down, although he was more familiar with Ku Yue and had always admired her, this time he decided to side with Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu.
He favored Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu more.
"Master, shall we go down there too? I suddenly feel a bit uneasy..."
Yi Jie cautiously transmitted to Jia Baihe.
Jia Baihe was stunned. Initially, she wasn't planning to go down.
She couldn't wait to meet Ding Huan now, hoping Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu would come up again quickly, then Ye Xuan would speed up on the journey.
After hearing Yi Jie's words, she didn't hesitate and immediately shot out with Yi Jie.
Yi Jie's cultivation might be ordinary, but his sense of life and death was far superior to hers.
Yi Jie's Daoist Practice, on the vast Star Core, naturally couldn't escape Ye Xuan's notice.
Ye Xuan paused in surprise upon hearing Yi Jie's transmission, wondering what unease there was in his Flying Treasure.
Still, he remained cautious.
"Mr. Mo, Mr. Lan, we did indeed have some unpleasant interactions before. But in the current situation, I believe both of you understand very well.
Someone wants to refine this vast domain; we should join forces. Otherwise, it will only give the refiner of our domain an opportunity."
Ku Yue clasped her fists when she saw Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu coming over, speaking calmly.
She believed both Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu knew what she meant.
Lan Xiaobu sneered, just about to speak, when he heard Ye Xuan let out a miserable cry, and then Ye Xuan himself rushed out of the vast Star Core.
Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu couldn't bother with Ku Yue anymore; the two dashed left and right to protect Ye Xuan.
Ye Xuan fell from the Void, spitting out a Blood Arrow from his mouth.
A blood hole appeared in the middle of his forehead.
At that moment, his Taoist Aura weakened.
"What's going on?" An Ting asked urgently as he approached.
If he sided with Mo Wuji, Ye Xuan would be a tremendous asset.
So An Ting didn't want Ye Xuan to get hurt.
Mo Wuji looked at the vast Star Core floating far away, frowning as he said, "Ye Xuan was plotted against; there's a powerful entity hidden within the vast Star Core."
Ye Xuan's aura was chaotic, and he spat blood again, weakly saying, "I didn't even notice when I was refining the vast Star Core. This guy is truly good at patience."
He remembered Ding Huan's words, saying to be cautious of the vast Star Core.
Later, when he entered the ninth step of the vast Great Dao, naturally, he felt there was no need for concern anymore.
Unexpectedly, something did happen.
Lan Xiaobu's gaze swept over to the very warmly chatting Zuo Shanyi with Ku Yue and said, "It should be this guy.
The presence within the vast Star Core was fine all along. This sudden tear in Ye Xuan's Source Principle Dao Pattern left there must be related to Shi Keling."
Ye Xuan wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth, saying, "My spiritual connection with the vast Star Core is completely severed; the vast Star Core has been snatched away."
"Can we act now?" An Ting asked.
Mo Wuji shook his head, "Acting now is meaningless; look at the vast Star Core..."
As Mo Wuji's voice fell, the vast Star Core suddenly shrank, then fell into the hands of a woman in a white dress.
Meanwhile, the eight pieces of the vast Star Map were suspended in the Void. Presumably, the woman couldn't take these eight pieces, so she simply tossed them out.
Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu reached out.
The eight pieces of the vast Star Map in the Void were swept over by the two, then collected.
The two wrapped the eight pieces of the Star Map in their Great Dao Source Principle Restrictions; even Jiqiong couldn't take these Star Maps away in a short time.
If the woman dared take the eight pieces of the vast Star Map, then they could take action.
"This woman is a powerful being from the God clan; no wonder Shi Keling could help her break Ye Xuan's Great Dao constraints. That Shi Keling must also be from the God clan."
Lan Xiaobu spoke as he looked at Zuo Shanyi with intense killing intent.
He truly wanted to kill this guy right now.
Zuo Shanyi, however, widened his eyes at the white dress woman before him; he really hadn't expected this to be an acquaintance.
"Qi Xinyue..."
But as soon as he called out this name, he realized he must have been mistaken.
Even Qi Xinyue, no matter how formidable, couldn't appear here.
With Zuo Shanyi's perception, this woman's strength wouldn't be weaker than his.
To exist within the vast Star Core, she must be an ancient entity from the split of the cosmos, how could she possibly be Qi Xinyue?
What shocked Zuo Shanyi even more was that the woman resembling Qi Xinyue walked towards him, nodded at him, and said, "It's been a long time, thank you this time."
After speaking these words, she glanced at the majestic, surging river of the golden Great Dao, sneered and said, "Jiqiong really is capable, using this method for Sacrificial Dao.
Unfortunately, he won't have the chance..."
Ku Yue had already sensed Zuo Shanyi's strength was very powerful, in no way weaker than hers.
Now came another woman whose strength was not weaker than Zuo Shanyi's, and she was also acquainted with Zuo Shanyi.
She immediately stepped forward and saluted, "May I ask how to address you, Dao Friend? I..."
The woman glanced indifferently at Ku Yue, interrupting her words, "I know you are named Ku Yue. Back then, your understanding of the Great Dao far exceeded those three wastes.
I appreciate your approach of preaching with your own body, but it seems you haven't succeeded."
In just a few short sentences, Ku Yue captured several critical pieces of information.
First, the other party knew her long ago and was very familiar with her, clearly one of the vast Dao Spirits.
Secondly, the other party knew what she had been doing, no doubt she was preparing to preach the Great Dao the ninth step by embodiment.
The other party claimed she also hadn't succeeded, suggesting their methods of proving the Dao were quite similar.
The reason for her failure was largely because of these two people present.
Thinking of this, Ku Yue took a cold look at Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu.
"Mistress, I seem to recognize that woman…" Yi Jie transmitted to Jia Baihe.
Jia Baihe snorted, "There's no need to transmit sound here, say, who is that woman."
Naturally, Jia Baihe understood that Yi Jie's ability to transmit sound here was absurd.
Yi Jie cautiously said, "She is called Qi Xinyue, a long time ago was Mr. Huan's woman…"
"She is Qi Xinyue?" Jia Baihe looked in astonishment at the woman in the white dress.
Though she had not seen Qi Xinyue, she was not unfamiliar with this woman at all.
"She shouldn't be Brother Ding Huan's Dao companion." Mo Wuji said from the side.
This woman absolutely existed during the split of the cosmos, how could she be Ding Huan's Dao companion?
"Let's go and see." Lan Xiaobu said, but while speaking, he had already grasped the Longevity Halberd.
Ye Xuan was his brother, and plotting against Ye Xuan meant that today, he must teach this woman a lesson.
Ku Yue finally recalled who the woman in the white dress was, shocked as she looked at Qi Xinyue, "Senior, are you the first Dao Spirit of the cosmos, the founder of the God clan, Qi Changqing?"
Loneliness doesn't breed life, nor does solitude flourish.
The cosmic split was likewise divided into Yin and Yang.
The Yang Child naturally refers to the Unity of Jiqiong and cosmic primal spirit.
Though Ku Yue was the most powerful and renowned Dao Spirit under the cosmos, she knew well she wasn't qualified to be the Yin Child.
Because she was born too late, by the time she appeared the cosmic split was about to end.
The true Yin Child is Qi Changqing.
Qi Changqing doesn't have the prestige of the cosmic primal spirit and Unity of Jiqiong, not because she's incapable.
It's because she chose another path of the Great Dao.
Jiqiong and Void are committed to comprehending the cosmic Great Dao, both wanting to step the ninth step.
From the start, they were in a life-and-death struggle.
Qi Changqing didn't know if it was because she realized she couldn't outcompete the two, or she knew early on she couldn't step the cosmos Great Dao ninth step.
Thus she chose another path, creating the cosmos's first race, the Gods.
She believed only if the Gods were strong amidst the cosmos would she receive the entire clan's support, stepping the cosmos Great Dao ninth step.
Ku Yue sighed, and her departure from the cosmos to the lowest-level Universe in the cosmic regime to establish the Ku Clan was indeed influenced by Qi Changqing of the Gods.
Zuo Shanyi, listening to these dialogues on the side, completely understood.
The woman not only founded the God clan but also aimed to perfect her worldly Great Dao through her Dao Body.
Qi Xinyue was merely this woman's Dao Body perfecting the worldly Great Dao.
The current appearance of this woman suggested Qi Xinyue had completed her mission.
Mo Wuji and Lan Xiaobu likewise understood.
This was similar to proving the Dao by severing the corpse; Qi Changqing used her Dao Body, the woman named Qi Xinyue, to perfect part of her Great Dao.
This part of the Great Dao encompasses worldly joys and sorrows, even reincarnation.
Meanwhile, her true self remained in the vast Star Core, perfecting the cosmos Great Dao ninth step.
Qi Changqing nodded towards Ku Yue; her Dao similarly faced issues.
Now, Ku Yue's strength probably wouldn't be much weaker than hers.
Dealing with Jiqiong, she would be a helpful ally.
"I must let Mr. Qi know that the one desiring to sacrificially obliterate our cosmic side isn't Jiqiong, but a fellow named Ding Huan…" Zuo Shanyi spoke while continuously feeling Qi Changqing's aura fluctuations.
Indeed, upon hearing the name Ding Huan, Qi Changqing's face instantly grew cold.
(Good night, Dao Friend!)
