" Lord Ziyue fought with her?" Zhang Zhiyun was taken aback. "Really? When was that?"
"About seventy years ago," Ziyue said softly.
"Back then, Transcendent couldn't move around recklessly, right?" Zhang Zhiyun asked, squinting.
When the Earth Spirit is weak, no Transcendent being can move around recklessly. Once the energy is depleted, the energy intensity of heaven and earth at that time will not be enough to maintain bodily functions, and even breathing will become difficult. Most Transcendent that remain in this world are sealed in a fixed location that can maintain spiritual energy.
Such places are usually heavily guarded, and it's virtually impossible for anyone without Transcendent abilities to enter.
unless
"Is it Duke of Song?" Zhang Zhiyun's mind was very clear, and he thought of someone almost immediately.
Ziyue smiled. The time she spent wandering the world with Liu Yu and the adorable A Li was one of the happiest periods of her life during her ten thousand years of fleeing for her life.
At that time, Liu Yu had just learned the Flying Star and was extremely curious about the world. I also had an element of using him at the time, as I needed him to help me escape from being hunted down. In order to satisfy Liu Yu's curiosity and to answer my questions, we explored many ancient places together.
The reason why Evening Elephant is called a troublemaker is also because, in the first stage, when no one else could enter the Transcendent seal, Evening Elephant was able to.
Ironically, those Transcendent beings dared not make a move in the face of their various actions inside.
The reason is simple: the tighter the seal, the more complex the energy pathways. A slight oversight could destroy it, preventing it from even going into hibernation and leaving it to die in this world of depleted Spirit Energy!
Therefore, Transcendent beings with great origins have historically withdrawn from this world in large numbers when the Earth Spirit declines.
Only a small number of forces that cannot do without it will choose to seal it away and preserve it.
Don't be fooled by the fact that we kept wandering around their lairs and seemed like we were asking for trouble. In reality, during that time, the three of us infiltrated the territories of countless Transcendent creatures, and they could only swallow their anger. As long as we didn't go too far, they would accept even taking some resources.
Only once did I encounter a freak.
As soon as they entered her sealed territory, she seemed ready to attack. Moreover, her sealing environment was extremely rudimentary, in a state where it could shatter at the slightest touch.
Even so, the other party remained resolute in their killing intent. This pure and unwavering killing intent was something Ziyue had never encountered before, despite experiencing so much in her life.
She made a quick decision and ordered Liu Yu to leave immediately to avoid a firefight.
Even though he had already indicated that he wanted to leave, the other party still made a move.
The two exchanged only one move!
That was the closest Ziyue had ever come to death in all her millennia of escaping!
"Oh?" Murong Ziyi suddenly spoke up, "The outcome was decided quite quickly."
The group looked over and were surprised by what they saw on the screen, but upon reflection, they suddenly realized that it seemed to be exactly as it should be.
In the scene, Chen Ye is kneeling on the ground, trembling all over, his face pale and bloodless, cold sweat dripping down his body, forming steam in the high temperature environment around him.
Clearly, Chen Ye couldn't withstand the opponent's momentum and almost immediately adopted the posture of an absolute underdog, indicating that he was not aggressive.
The ordinary people outside the palace gates booed and jeered, Hall of Rectitude and Harmony watched with complicated expressions, especially Chen Baifeng, who almost breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
He was afraid that his child would fight for the sake of dignity, because in his eyes, the life and death of his top prospect was countless times more important than dignity!
So what if we lose badly? As long as we're alive, there will always be a chance. Once we're dead, we have nothing left.
Inside the barrier, seeing Chen Ye kneeling on the ground, not even daring to glance at her, White Plain withdrew her imposing aura and, mimicking the human custom of cupped hands, bowed. "You flatter me."
"You're too kind?" Chen Ye, kneeling down, closed his eyes. Gone was the oppressive feeling of being on the verge of death; now, he only felt endless humiliation.
"How could I possibly deserve those two words?"
These words made Chen Baifeng, who was watching the battle, frown. This move had damaged his Dao heart. He would probably have to spend a lot of effort to recover his mindset when he got back, otherwise he would never amount to anything in this life.
Upon hearing this, White Plain, who was about to leave, glanced at the now-opened spatial portal and turned back, saying, "How could I not be worthy?"
Chen Ye was stunned. He hadn't expected that the victor who had crushed him would reply with such self-pitying words.
"You're still very young." White Plain's face showed no smile, only seriousness. "Whether by human or dragon standards, you're very young. It's normal that someone so young can't beat me, isn't it? Why do you look so desperate? You're clearly still alive."
Chen Ye was taken aback. The other person's eyes remained ethereal, and their demeanor was aloof, making it hard to believe that they were the type to offer words of comfort.
Therefore, when someone speaks like this, it gives him the feeling that they are speaking to him very seriously.
"Yes. I'm still alive." After a moment, Chen Ye's dazed eyes cleared, and he bowed deeply to White Plain: "Thank you, Miss, for sparing my life!"
White Plain smiled upon hearing this, deeply grateful for the great gesture. In her view, the grace of not killing was indeed a great favor.
Everyone looked at Chen Ye, who had regained his energy, with incredibly complex expressions. It was hard to imagine that such advice would come from the mouth of a demon from the Northern Lands.
Who exactly is this woman?
"This snake is really interesting!" Heaven and Earth Hall, Zhang Xiaoyun licked her lips. "I find her increasingly delicious. I really look forward to it. If she can find the Azure Dragon Talisman, I hope she comes to me."
Murong Zifu gave the other party a cold look. "You might not be able to gain the upper hand. Who knows who will be the one to enjoy the benefits in the end."
"Oh, Sister Ziyi doesn't think much of me?" Zhang Xiaoyun looked aggrieved.
Murong Ziyi was too lazy to look at the other person. The feeling of almost nausea in her heart made her not want to look at the other person again. So she simply turned her gaze to the battle scenes of other groups on the crystal. Being attracted to White Plain's place in this competition was a complete accident. Both she and Zhang Zhiyun were actually more concerned about the battle situation of the other group.
Yes, it was the result of the duel between Chen Ying, the dean of the Jiangnan Academy, and Zhou Yuntao, the White Tiger Sorcerer.
Looking over, the two were still testing each other. More than half of an hour had passed, and only a quarter of an hour remained before the battle ended. The two had not yet started fighting, which was more dragging on than expected.
However, when they looked at the other groups, both Murong Ziyi and Zhang Zhiyun were stunned.
The other groups had mostly already decided their winners, but this result was something neither of them had expected!
