My Lady Always Lacks Ambition

Chapter 1327 - 1241: Slaying God, Proving the Dao (Part 4)

In the great formation, all spiritual power suddenly surged towards the altar. Feng Xiu and Qin Liuxi exchanged a glance and landed on the small square, within a Spirit Trapping Array set by Teng Zhao and the others, using demonic power to construct a space and sweeping all the still-living cultivators inside, saving them from having their spiritual power siphoned.

This was also at Qin Liuxi’s behest.

Fan Kong and Master Hui Neng were within the space, chanting scriptures, forming another Barrier with Buddha Power to protect everyone inside the space.

Within the formation, Si Luo was already exerting full force on the great formation; he was sacrificing, using his body to take the spirit from all living things in the world.

...

Natural disasters suddenly appeared all over Da Feng, and catastrophe ensued.

In the East Sea, the seawater surged furiously; a tsunami roared in the terrified eyes of the civilians, with great momentum, and a storm erupted.

People vanished instantly into the backflowing seawater.

Suddenly, a gigantic demon fox appeared on the sea, opening its enormous mouth like a sea dragon, sucking back the flooding seawater.

Everyone was left dumbfounded.

The seawater, several meters high, was clearly approaching, yet it seemed to be stopped by an invisible force, continually retreating, retreating, retreating.

And in the center, the earth trembled and mountains shook, and some of the roads to the north and south suffered avalanches.

In the west, a large crack suddenly appeared on the calm ground, countless people fell into the crevice, and some mountains were suddenly struck by Heavenly Fire and self-ignited, with living beings screaming in agony in the fire.

In the south, countless animals stormed into the city, rampaging madly, injuring citizens or committing suicide.

In Shengjing, the citizens had not yet recovered from the fright of the previous earthquake, when they saw the sky, bright as day moments ago, suddenly turn black.

The world was plunged into darkness, and screams rose one after another.

In the unseen air, some resentful ghosts floated, the Ghost Gate seemed opened, countless Ghost Evil surged out but were intimidated by a powerful pressure, captured back.

When Ten Thousand Ghosts appear, all living things perish, they cannot emerge.

Qin Liuxi moved her heart at will, activating the killing array, countless hers rushed towards Si Luo with powerful Daoist intent, thwarting his sacrifice.

Si Luo chuckled and snapped his fingers, pulling her into the Illusion Array.

Qin Liuxi knelt halfway in the void, saw Wang Chuan calling her, saw her sitting cross-legged in a place of utter darkness, continuously attacking that place like a black hole, countless dark energy surged towards her, like demons or charms, surrounding and devouring her.

She saw the child pleading with the Grandmaster to take her away, she longed for the light and hoped for its return.

Yet day after day passed, the light that once appeared in life never came again, her good fortune was spent long ago in childhood.

Sitting in that black hole, she gradually lost her emotions, lost her vitality, her moves became increasingly imbued with evil spirit and fiercer.

There was resentment in there, and hate too.

She became Heartless, like her person; if you abandon me, then I will don the armor of heartlessness.

Rather I betray the world, than the world betray me.

Year after year passed, she grew into the visage of a maiden, yet never smiled brightly again, she killed people, taking the souls of the darkest maidens, she killed ghosts, refined them, devoured souls, ultimately exploding into death.

Oh Wang Chuan.

Qin Liuxi’s eyes were crimson red.

Threads of black energy crept from all directions, silently climbing onto her legs, penetrating into her senses.

Qin Liuxi seemed oblivious, she returned again to the wooden house by the Northwest Small Spirit Veins, saw her master lying on the cold ground without a breath, the corpse gradually stiffening in her embrace.

Even if she had refined the Foundation Establishment Pill, it was useless, she couldn’t save her master’s life.

It was her fault, she should have tried harder, shouldn’t have been lazy.

Before her eyes, a grim scene appeared again; people from the monk and Dao sects fell one by one before her, perishing, their Dao extinguished.

All living things perished.

She stood alone in a dead and desolate world, she couldn’t do anything, she couldn’t save anyone, nor save the world.

Life had lost its meaning.

Better to die, better to die.

Qin Liuxi lay spread-eagle on the ground, letting the dark energy climb, cover her, devour her.

"Remember, you too have a home to return to, this chamber forever belongs to you."

"Master, when I finish my apprenticeship, you can retire in comfort."

"Little Xixi, you mustn’t eagerly seek death, while old fox like me cannot die. Battling against heaven is endlessly fun."

"When you return, this wine, we drink together, alright."

"Girl, if I am no longer me, slay the god."

In Qin Liuxi’s Divine Mansion, Divine Power moved, she opened her eyes, saw Si Luo’s eyes.

The other person was still saying: "Better to die."

Qin Liuxi blankly replied: "Alright."

She climbed onto Si Luo, saying: "Is the Buddha Bone useful?"

"Hmm?"

Qin Liuxi said again: "Do you know a single spark can start a prairie fire?"

Si Luo: "?"

Qin Liuxi smiled: "Pop."

Si Luo’s pupils constricted, before he could react, the finger bone within him suddenly ignited fiercely, spreading throughout his body, reaching his Divine Soul.

"You’re mad!"

He stared incredulously at Qin Liuxi; she had planted the Fire within that finger bone.

Qin Liuxi smiled brilliantly like a red lotus: "You want to become a god, but I want to slay the god!"

Si Luo finally revealed a look of panic.

Qin Liuxi’s action was akin to him, sacrificing with her Divine Soul, yet her Divine Soul was this Fire.

If the Fire went out, she would not exist!

He wanted to escape, she was both Sheng Gate and Death Gate, advancing and retreating were impossible.

Qin Liuxi flipped her hands, Daoist intent filled her entire being, the Taiji Bagua Diagram appeared behind her, she murmured: "With my flesh and blood as the lead, with my soul as the sacrifice, with my wishing power, I wish to become the flame that transforms the decaying body, slay the god and test the Dao to protect all living things!"

Slaying the god and proving the Dao, her ultimate destination!

The Karmic Fire on Si Luo flared mightily; he looked to the clouds which hadn’t lowered the Ascension Ladder, watched them gradually part, revealing a speck of white light, until it shone brightly, his anger surged.

The God Formation roared to life.

It was crushed tightly by the God Trapping Array, about to collapse.

"Southeast corner, the Sheng Gate, hurry and go." Qin Liuxi’s message reached Feng Xiu and the others’ eardrums.

Feng Xiu burst with fury: "Don’t think about it!"

"If you don’t behave, I’ll kill you!"

"Come out if you have the guts!" Feng Xiu shouted, eyes crimson as he watched that increasingly dim Karmic Fire.

Teng Zhao wanted to dash over but was blocked firmly by Little Ginseng.

Qin Liuxi said: "Xuan Yi, take them away, this is the master’s order!"

Teng Zhao froze, eyes red-rimmed.

She called out the Daoist name, this was an irresistible order!

Teng Zhao led everyone moving towards the southeast corner.

Si Luo saw this and sneered: "This is needless stupidity!"

"Laozi will accompany you westbound, you hit the jackpot, stop babbling." Qin Liuxi controlled the Fire which burned fiercer.

Si Luo’s Divine Soul gradually dissipated, the Fire dimmed: "True, with you accompanying, not a loss!"

He used the remaining soul breath to tightly bind her, saying you’re right, die together, no one can escape!

Qin Liuxi exhausted the remaining spiritual power, tore open a Sheng Gate in the northeast corner, Teng Zhao and the others left the formation under immense pressure.

The Lifebound Plate originally relied on her spiritual power, now all spiritual power pressed onto the Fire, Si Luo’s Divine Soul remained, she couldn’t move.

And the Array Plate’s effect, not just trapping the god, but life!

Rumble.

The God Formation completely collapsed, sinking into the depths of the earth, an Array Plate shot out from the ground, a faint Mountain Spirit burst from the mountain, merging with the Witch Clan’s Divine Sense embedded within the Array Plate.

The Array Plate soared into the sky, radiant with five-coloured golden light, and spread continuously until the Divine Stone energy completely dissipated, finally exploding in the air.

Spirit rain descended from the heavens.

That was, vitality!

Everyone stared dumbfounded at the ground, watched the sand flow into the depths, it returned to a desert, a voice ethereally transmitted, extinguished in an instant.

She said: "Bring a jug of wine, toast to the mortal world, no regret in having come!"
