Ye Qiu and the others still did not know that a crack had appeared in the Saint-level grand formation outside. At this moment, disciples from several major sects had already entered the tomb.
They were still waiting for the Hundred Flowers Fairy to forge her Phoenix Body.
In the blood pool, the blood continued to splash up. A rich fragrance filled the entire interior of Purple Mountain.
“Clang—”
Faintly, a phoenix cry rang out, piercing gold and cracking stone.
The Hundred Flowers Fairy’s flesh had undergone three rebirths. Although she was enduring immense pain, she remained immersed in the blood pool, motionless.
“Buzz!”
Suddenly, a vast amount of blood qi surged from the Hundred Flowers Fairy’s crown, resembling rosy clouds. It made her look like a celestial fairy.
Ye Qiu activated his heavenly eye and saw that all the pores on the Hundred Flowers Fairy’s body had opened up. They were continuously absorbing the Phoenix True Blood. Runes flowed on her fiery red bones, mysterious and unfathomable.
Soon, the Hundred Flowers Fairy’s flesh melted away once more. Below her neck, only a white skeleton remained again.
Time passed quietly.
“I wonder when the Fairy will complete her nirvana?” the Long Eyebrow Real Person said.
Ye Qiu said, “It looks like it will take some time yet.”
The Long Eyebrow Real Person said, “I hope the Fairy forges her Phoenix Body quickly. If the Saint-level grand formation collapses before she finishes, we will be in trouble.”
Clearly, he was also worried about the experts from the major sects outside.
“Since we are here, we might as well stay calm and wait quietly!”
Although Ye Qiu appeared calm, he was actually very anxious inside.
If the Saint-level grand formation collapsed before the Hundred Flowers Fairy finished her nirvana, those experts outside would rush in. They would face a huge crisis.
After all, those powerhouses at the peak of the Transcendent God realm were all coming for the Saint’s inheritance.
…
After the disciples from the major sects entered the grand formation, they began searching everywhere.
All of them wanted to obtain the Saint’s inheritance.
“Saintess, there is a discovery ahead.”
A disciple from the Azure Cloud Sword Sect walked up to the veiled woman in the ice-blue long skirt and said softly.
“Take me there.” The veiled woman’s voice was like an oriole, pleasant to the ear.
Immediately, the group from the Azure Cloud Sword Sect arrived before a canyon.
The veiled woman looked up and saw that on both sides of the canyon were endless glaciers, like divine swords piercing straight into the heavens.
As for the inside of the canyon, it was shrouded in a layer of black mist, like ink that could not be dispersed. It emitted a sinister and eerie aura.
“This is the place.” The Azure Cloud Sword Sect disciple who spoke earlier said.
The veiled woman stared at the black mist in the canyon for a while but remained silent.
“Saintess, let us go in. The Saint’s inheritance might be inside the canyon.” Someone beside her said.
Another person followed up, “Saintess, make a decision quickly. Otherwise, if people from the other sects arrive, they will definitely compete with us for the Saint’s inheritance.”
The veiled woman said, “The Saint’s tomb is no benevolent place. We should act cautiously to avoid falling into danger.”
“Saintess…” The person beside her wanted to persuade her further. Just then, people from the Mending Heaven Sect and the three holy lands arrived.
These people glanced indifferently at the Azure Cloud Sword Sect group, then all fixed their gazes on the canyon.
“It seems this canyon is not simple!”
“Could the Saint’s inheritance be inside?”
“What if there is danger?”
“With so many of us, are we still afraid of danger?”
After exchanging a few words, the people from the three holy lands rushed into the canyon en masse.
The people from the Mending Heaven Sect also followed in.
Seeing so many people rush into the canyon, the Azure Cloud Sword Sect disciples urged the veiled woman again, “Saintess, let us go in quickly too. Otherwise, the Saint’s inheritance will be taken by others.”
The veiled woman remained very composed and said, “Wait a bit longer!”
“Saintess—”
“Shut up!”
The veiled woman gave a cold shout. Her voice contained an unquestionable authority. The disciple who spoke immediately shut his mouth and dared not advise further.
“Oh dear, is this not little sister Yunxi? Why are you all waiting here?” A laugh suddenly rang out.
The veiled woman turned her head and saw Lin Tian walking over. She frowned slightly.
Lin Tian walked up, his eyes roaming over the veiled woman’s body nonstop. As he looked, he said, “It has been a long time, little sister Yunxi. You have become even more enchanting. As expected of the peerless fairy ranked third on the Heavenly Immortal List.”
“Little sister Yunxi, how have you been these past few years?”
“Since we parted last time, brother has been unable to eat or sleep. Every night in my dreams, it is your figure.”
“We are old acquaintances. Why bother with the veil? Take it off and let me see you.”
The veiled woman ignored him.
“I understand. Little sister Yunxi wants me to help you remove the veil. Alright, brother will help you.”
Lin Tian had a lewd smile on his face as he reached out to grab the veiled woman’s veil.
“Insolent!”
A disciple from the Azure Cloud Sword Sect blocked in front of the veiled woman and pointed at Lin Tian, shouting sternly, “How dare you molest the Saintess? Do you want to die?”
Slap!
Lin Tian struck directly, slapping the one who scolded him flying. He said viciously, “I am catching up with little sister Yunxi. What business is it of yours?”
The veiled woman’s gaze turned icy.
The other members of the Azure Cloud Sword Sect also looked at Lin Tian with fury.
Lin Tian ignored everyone’s gazes and chuckled, “Little sister Yunxi, I plan to go to the Azure Cloud Sword Sect to propose marriage after leaving here. I will have my master bring me, and have your father marry you to me.”
“You are the Saintess of the Azure Cloud Sword Sect, I am the Holy Son of the Yin-Yang Sect. The union of Saintess and Holy Son is a match made in heaven.”
“Moreover, both the Azure Cloud Sword Sect and the Yin-Yang Sect are top sects in the Eastern Wastelands. If we form a marriage alliance, it will surely become a beautiful tale.”
“Little sister Yunxi, what do you think?”
The veiled woman said coldly, “I once swore that unless I become a Saint, I will never marry.”
“Even if I were to marry, that person would absolutely not be you.”
“Our Azure Cloud Sword Sect will also not form a marriage alliance with your Yin-Yang Sect.”
Lin Tian was not angry at all and said, “Little sister Yunxi, why must you do this?”
“You and I are a perfect match of talent and beauty. If we unite, we will surely become an immortal couple that everyone envies.”
“Besides, my skills are excellent. Do you want to try…”
Clang!
A sword hum suddenly came from the veiled woman’s body. In an instant, a sharp aura filled the sky and earth.
“Lin Tian, if you dare spout nonsense again, do not blame me for being impolite.” The veiled woman said coldly.
“Hahaha, I was just joking. Little sister Yunxi, do not be angry.” Lin Tian put away his smile and said, “On the way here, I heard some news. The people from the three holy lands have already formed an alliance in private.”
The veiled woman’s expression changed slightly.
If the three holy lands truly allied, it would not be good news for her.
“Little sister Yunxi, how about we also form an alliance and search for the Saint’s inheritance together?”
As soon as Lin Tian finished speaking, a shrill scream suddenly came to his ears, “Ah—”
