Chapter 631 - 361: Water Spirit Giant General
In the north, there is a martial arts sect named Fuyao Cloud Sect, which only admits handsome men and beautiful women, deeming the ugly unworthy of entry.
This rule is quite peculiar and easily incites anger in most people’s hearts. After all, one’s appearance is innate and cannot be altered by normal means. Handsome and beautiful people are a minority in the world, leading many people to express disdain whenever Fuyao Cloud Sect is mentioned.
Judging people by appearance is garbage.
Within Fuyao Cloud Sect, women use water sleeves as weapons, while men use delicate swords. It’s very easy to identify, and currently, the woman sprinting towards the city wall is from Fuyao Cloud Sect.
Water sleeves are originally gentle items, but in the hands of female disciples from Fuyao Cloud Sect, they can transform into the most terrifying weapons.
Upon seeing another target mounting the wall, the spiders on the wall immediately reacted like lit firecrackers, scrambling toward the woman while spewing webs that covered the sky.
The woman swiftly spun her water sleeves, and in a few breaths, they transformed into a whirlwind with astonishing power.
This wind expanded over a vast area, instantly shredding any spider that entered the Wind Array to pieces, along with their webs, leaving the spiders no chance to approach the woman.
Turning into a whirlwind, the woman’s progress was extremely smooth, and in no time, she reached almost two-thirds of the height.
This made the people below anxious, as it seemed the woman would be the first to break into the Inner City.
Consequently, others followed suit. They learned from the female grandmaster of Fuyao Cloud Sect how to deal with those spiders, which was to use long-range attacks to prevent the spiders from having a chance to get close.
The Inner City walls are very strange, capable of continuously spawning large numbers of spiders. The more you kill, the more spiders appear.
This situation feels troublesome, as it means the later you act, the more spiders you’ll face.
Qin Yuesheng couldn’t sit still anymore and quickly leapt from his hiding place, ascending the wall with the momentum of Eight Steps to Catch the Cicada. The Golden Bell Shield of Primordial Creation emerged around him as a purple-gold bell appeared and enveloped his entire body. Nine Purple Dragons twisted within the purple clouds on the bell, creating an extraordinarily mystical aura that could be understood as otherworldly.
This Heaven and Earth Level protective Divine Skill, as far as Qin Yuesheng knows, is unique to him, and its power far surpasses that of the Divine Skill Golden Bell Shield.
Any spider approaching was instantly pulverized by the rotating purple-gold bell, thus Qin Yuesheng pressed forward like a bulldozer, advancing straight up the wall without any spider able to hinder his progress.
"Hmm!"
Qin Yuesheng’s appearance drew the attention of many people.
"Isn’t that the Golden Bell Shield from the Dharma Temple? But wait, the Golden Bell Shield from the Dharma Temple should be golden, so why is this person’s bell a different color?"
"Could it be that the Golden Bell Shield has some variations we don’t know about?"
"That can’t be right."
Qin Yuesheng pushed forward unstoppably, the effects of Heaven and Earth Level martial arts fully demonstrated at this moment. Ultimately, unimpeded, he climbed the wall and leapt into the Inner City, disappearing from sight.
"Not good, several people have already entered; we must hurry."
As more grandmasters successfully entered the Inner City, those who hadn’t succeeded yet became nervous, each joining the ranks combating the spiders.
...
Who could have imagined that behind the Golden City walls, there was a circular deep pit leading straight underground? The pit was bottomless, emitting a deep blue glow from its depths, with many chains visible inside, resembling a giant maw intending to swallow people whole.
Clearly, the hidden treasure must lie beneath.
Qin Yuesheng stood steadily on one of the iron chains, relying on his Lightweight Skill to jump continually downward. Below him, there were several figures also moving; these were those who had crossed the wall earlier than him.
"Mmm!!!"
A low roar came from below, its large and sound wave-like presence causing all the iron chains in the pit to tremble. Qin Yuesheng’s expression changed instantly.
For he sensed that the moment the roar appeared, the local natural forces disappeared. This meant that the grandmasters could no longer fly; their ability to stand steadily on the iron chains depended entirely on their groundwork skills.
"What kind of monster is that?"
Not only Qin Yuesheng, but everyone in the pit couldn’t help but question in their hearts.
Qin Yuesheng’s Biluo Eye focused and expanded, gradually bringing the pit’s scene into clearer and further view. After roughly ten breaths, the Biluo Eye magnified at least hundreds of times. Qin Yuesheng’s eyes began to redden with blood vessels, reaching the current limits of his optical endurance.
Finally, the blue light gradually faded, and the scene at the bottom of the pit was fully revealed to Qin Yuesheng’s eyes.
It was an azure blue pond, with large heaps of luminescent crystal stones underneath. Floating above the pond was a green jade coffin, extraordinarily mysterious.
"The relic of a Saint Wheel Realm expert!" Qin Yuesheng finally could no longer maintain the expanded vision of his Biluo Eye, and everything reverted back to its original state.
After a few breaths, the noise started to fade, and the grandmasters who had arrived at this place were all of extraordinary strength. None of them had any reason to retreat after coming this far.
As the saying goes, despite knowing there are tigers on the mountain, one chooses to head toward the tiger mountain, even if beneath lies a dragon’s den or tiger’s lair, one must venture in and explore.
