When Earth Awakened, I Became a Sword Saintess

Chapter 201 : Earthquake, Flash Flood, Great Flood Dragons

201: Earthquake, Flash Flood, Great Flood Dragons

Boom, boom...

Amidst the shaking earth, the Li Su experts of various factions fell into chaos. Many leaped across tilting, sinking, and cracking ground, dodging falling rocks as they charged toward Yuyin.

Bang! A barbarian expert howling for revenge for his clan leader was smashed into pulp by a massive stalactite falling from the sky.

The water curtain dispersed. Numerous Li Su cultivators charged at Yuyin while hurling flying swords, various talismans, and treasures.

Splash! Splash! Splash!

From the cracked cavern walls and the earth's abyss, several enormous flood dragons formed from swift currents emerged, glowing with faint blue light. These water dragons churned through the cavern, causing even more ground to crack and collapse.

These massive water dragons swung their long tails, sending large numbers of Li Su experts flying into the air. Some dragons spewed surging water currents that scattered the strong Li Su experts and their military formations. The dragons threw the cavern into complete upheaval, creating countless casualties.

Between the earthquakes, falling rocks, and the strangling attacks of the massive water dragons, only a rare few Li Su experts could reach Yuyin.

One Li Su cultivator strode through the air, dodging left and right in succession. He evaded the water dragons and killed his way to within ten steps of Yuyin.

"Xia girl! You must have obtained the inheritance and are controlling this tomb. Killing you will solve everything!" This Early-Stage of Void Truth cultivator's eyes were red. Only one arm could move; a boulder had struck him during his charge, immobilizing half his shoulder.

His eyes held nothing but ferocity.

He was merely Early-Stage of Void Truth, and reaching this point had left him at his last gasp.

Yuyin swung her leg through the air. Her long, slender leg traced a crescent water-element blade light through the sky as it swept past, formed from powerful Source Spirit. At the level of Rain Intent Resonance in Rain Concubine's inheritance, one could fuse Source Spirit power with comprehension to form water-element Source Spirit, creating countless variations. The power of this kick could condense into such a crescent blade light, just as Bai Ruowei could shoot lightning by fusing Source Spirit power with lightning comprehension.

This was extremely difficult for ordinary cultivators, but for Rain Concubine's inheritance, it was merely the most basic application of techniques. Combined with Yuyin's comprehension, it was naturally no challenge.

Whoosh!

The water-colored blade light from Yuyin's kick carried Source Spirit transformed into rain and dew, refracting the surrounding environment. It looked quite beautiful.

Yet it contained immense power.

Bang!

The water-colored blade light struck the Li Su cultivator's waist, instantly blasting him away. This blade light contained the force of Yuyin's kick itself combined with the power of Rain Intent Resonance. Even with losses during flight, it was more powerful than the Ancient Temple Leg Technique would have been if Yuyin had kicked directly without any rain comprehension.

Yuyin, this woman, already possessed great strength. How could this Early-Stage of Void Truth cultivator withstand it? He lost consciousness mid-flight, all his bones and internal organs shattered. Though Li Su cultivators had strong cultivation, their bodies were inherently fragile. This kick left him severely injured and dead.

At this moment, two or three other Early-Stage of Void Truth experts who had made it past the water dragons were stunned. Though injured, they were still Early-Stage of Void Truth experts! Yet this woman had nearly killed one with a single kick from a distance, sending him into the abyss? The Purple Domain experts in the chaos didn't know that the Early-Stage of Void Truth senior had actually been kicked to death before falling into the abyss.

Then... why were they still charging over?

Several Purple Domain aliens who had struggled to get this far turned and fled, leaping back into the rushing currents and earthquake zone...

The arrays Rain Concubine had placed within the tomb possessed immense power, a massive rain-element array that ran through the entire depths of the mountain. When fully unleashed, it far surpassed the might of a mountain flash flood, capable of causing localized ground collapse, landslides, and splitting the earth. It could form numerous massive water dragons to strike enemies in waves. Even a Late-Stage of Void Truth expert would be injured if they took a water dragon's attack head-on.

The reason Rain Concubine's will hadn't used such intense methods against the intruders from the start was that she had set up these great arrays and numerous mechanisms and guardians to protect her tomb, not destroy it. She still wanted to find a suitable person to receive her inheritance.

But Yuyin was different. Since she had already obtained the inheritance, she only needed to leave an escape route for herself and Gui Ji. Everything else could be destroyed along with the enemies inside.

Destroying Rain Concubine's tomb was Yuyin's decision, and a necessary one. Without using the demon goddess's tomb arrays to eliminate these thousands of Li Su troops, how could Yuyin possibly escape alive with only Gui Ji, even with ten inheritances?

There was no other way.

Yuyin had silently vowed in her heart that if she could escape alive, she wouldn't think about repairing Rain Concubine's tomb in the future, but would instead investigate the great dao of life and death and find a way to resurrect Rain Concubine!

A generation's great demon goddess, so devoted, died without fulfilling her wish. Yuyin refused to let this be her ending.

Of course, this was still far away. Besides, perhaps resurrecting Rain Concubine was impossible. Only then would she rebuild this tomb for Rain Concubine.

"Senior Rain Concubine, forgive me... I, Xia Yuyin, will remember your kindness in my heart, and I will certainly put my vow into action, when that day comes..." Yuyin thought silently.

"Hahahahaha! You truly are a little woman! Do you think I, Rain Concubine, would care about this mere tomb? I'm already dead, what use are these things to me? Since the inheritance has been given to the right person, this tomb and its arrays have lost their purpose. Let my great array have one final glorious moment and kill to my heart's content! Hahahahaha!"

A vast laugh echoed through the entire tomb, seemingly declaring the doom of these thousands of greedy aliens.

Boom, boom, boom!

Sky-filling floods rushed into the cavern. Massive water dragons rampaged through the cavern. Countless aliens were swallowed up.

"Everyone, don't panic! Find places to shelter from the floods and earthquakes. Watch out for those water dragons!" Bai Ruowei's figure was light and swift. She leaped to avoid the collapsing situation, jumping onto a thick stone pillar. Under her command, the several dozen most elite Jingyuan School disciples suffered relatively limited casualties. Of course, these Jingyuan disciples were already strong and helped each other in coordinated rescue efforts. Earthquakes and floods alone, unless one was extremely unlucky, couldn't easily kill them.

However, this indiscriminate, large-scale attack was completely different for the Li Su Royal Army, whose individual strength wasn't strong and relied on military formations...

"My... my thousands of troops..." Gold-armored General Mo Li stood on high ground, his face dark green as he watched the cavern turn into a flash flood. Of the thousands of troops he had brought, only a few deputy commanders and less than ten percent of the surviving soldiers had scattered and climbed to high ground. The rest had vanished in the floods and earthquakes.

"Xia girl!!" General Mo Li erupted with golden, majestic Primordial Energy. He drew his heavy treasured sword and leaped directly across boulders and stone pillars above the swift currents, charging toward Yuyin.

"General Mo, this Xia girl is the one controlling the tomb. If we join forces to defeat her, there may still be hope!" Not far away, Bai Ruowei, who had brought her junior brothers and sisters to relative safety, also flashed through the mountain rocks with incredible speed, charging toward Yuyin.
