Chapter 46: Intentional Disruption
Lin Aoxue glanced at the Spirit Pattern Realm cultivator who had been killed by her artifact. The gruesome sight made her feel like vomiting.
She had always tried her best to avoid killing, at most injuring her opponents. But just now, it wasn't her fault; the man had charged into it himself.
"Sorry, it wasn't me who wanted to kill you. You ran into it yourself." Lin Aoxue's heart trembled as she looked at the corpse, which had been practically riddled into a hornet's nest. She then reached up and removed the hairpin from her hair. This thing was a killing blow, showing basically no mercy.
As for the three remaining Spirit Pattern Realm cultivators, they didn't dare to touch Lin Aoxue now. With a Spirit Tier defensive artifact, cultivators of their realm would die upon contact.
"Damn it, let's go. Ignore her for now." The other three had no choice but to retreat.
They had witnessed what happened to the Spirit Pattern Realm cultivator just now and had no desire to die here.
With no one bothering her, Lin Aoxue was happy to be left alone.
"Sigh! Isn't it over yet? How long is this going to take, and how many more people will die?" Lin Aoxue sighed heavily. She disliked this bloody scene and only hoped it would end soon.
But from the looks of it, a quick end was impossible. Even Yun Yun was now engaged in a fierce battle with the Zixia Sect's Sect Master, Zi Lan. The battle between two Out-of-Body Realm cultivators was even more exaggerated in its might.
"Zi Lan, your Zixia Sect shouldn't go too far!" Yun Yun clashed with a Daoist nun in a purple robe. The two retreated a dozen zhang before stabilizing themselves.
The cold-looking Daoist nun was the current Sect Master of the Zixia Sect, Zi Lan, who was at the early stage of the Fourth Level of the Dao Palace Realm, the Out-of-Body Realm.
"Hmph! Yun Yun, it's not our Zixia Sect looking for trouble. Don't tell me you don't know how large the spirit vein in that rift is? Your Yunxia Sect wants to swallow such a massive spirit vein all by yourselves, do you think that's possible? Let me tell you, with such a big commotion, the other two sects will know soon enough. I advise you to be less greedy. Give our Zixia Sect half, and I'll order my disciples to stop right now," Zi Lan said in a deep voice.
That's right, the Zixia Sect had gone to war with the Yunxia Sect precisely because they knew the spirit vein below was massive and they wanted to seize it.
Everyone knew the importance of a spirit stone mine vein to a sect.
The spirit vein discovered by the Yunxia Sect was equivalent to five small spirit veins, capable of yielding at least 1.3 billion spirit stones. For a Low-tier Sect, this was almost a century's worth of income.
They could not, under any circumstances, allow the Yunxia Sect to monopolize such a massive profit. If they did, the Yunxia Sect would surely overshadow the other three Low-tier Sects in the future.
One sect dominating was not acceptable.
"Then there's nothing more to say." Yun Yun took a deep breath and engaged her opponent in battle once more.
Giving up half was absolutely impossible. She had actually offered a compromise earlier, saying she would give the Zixia Sect ten percent, but this woman, Zi Lan, refused to budge.
What did Zi Lan mean by this? Even if they dragged it out until the other sects arrived and the four sects divided it, each sect would surely get twenty percent. Moreover, it would foil the Yunxia Sect's plan to monopolize it—killing two birds with one stone.
Let's look back at Ye Liuyun. She breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Lin Aoxue was fine.
"Master, I think it's necessary to help the sect. I discovered a problem last time. The pill that summons lightning... a person who has been struck once develops a resistance to being struck again. If I were to draw lightning here, it should help the sect achieve victory, right?" Ye Liuyun asked.
She hoped to end the battle sooner this way, otherwise, more people would die.
"You might as well use the rain with the power of ice and fire from last time to stop them," Lin Qingyou suggested.
"Huh? That's true. But don't I have to eat that kind of pill?" Ye Liuyun felt a bit awkward.
But Lin Qingyou shook her head.
"No need. Just crush the two pills together with your power and throw them out," Lin Qingyou said.
Ye Liuyun thought for a moment, then quickly took out the two pills that had summoned the ice and fire rain last time. One was an Aphrodisiac Pill, and the other was an Ice Heart Pill.
The phenomenon last time was caused by the qualitative change from the two opposing medicines fusing and clashing, coupled with the immortal qi on the pills, which then drew the rain containing the power of ice and fire.
"As long as I don't have to eat it, it's fine. I'll give it a try." Ye Liuyun took a deep breath and then used her power to crush the two pills together.
Sure enough, as the two pills were crushed together, their completely opposite medicinal effects began to fight each other, and the pills started to emit a wave of heat.
"It's working. Here you go!" The crushed pills began to smoke. She immediately threw them with all her might, sending them far away, almost to the center of the battlefield.
But after throwing them away, Ye Liuyun suddenly seemed to remember something.
"Ah? Oh no, I forgot to notify Aoxue," Ye Liuyun's face stiffened.
With that, she quickly used Lin Qingyou's divine sense to call out to Lin Aoxue.
"Aoxue, Aoxue, stop spacing out! Come to me, quickly! If you don't hurry, there'll be trouble," Ye Liuyun's voice rang in Lin Aoxue's ears.
Lin Aoxue, who had been meditating, was stunned for a moment upon hearing the voice. She looked around, but unfortunately, she was several thousand meters away from Ye Liuyun.
"Liuyun, is that you calling me? Where are you?" Lin Aoxue asked quickly.
"I'm on the cliff to your south. Come here quickly, hurry up, or it'll be too late," Ye Liuyun urged.
Hearing this, Lin Aoxue was a bit confused. But at that moment, under the effect of Ye Liuyun's two pills, the battlefield, which had been shrouded in the smoke of war, was suddenly covered by dark clouds.
Lin Aoxue hadn't experienced the rain last time; she was in seclusion then, so she didn't know how terrible it was.
However, upon hearing Ye Liuyun's signal, she immediately mounted her flying sword and flew towards Ye Liuyun's location. But she was a little too late, as it had already started to rain.
"It's raining?" The cultivators on the battlefield had not yet realized the severity of the situation.
Lin Aoxue was also caught in the rain. As for Ye Liuyun, the moment the rain began to fall, she used her sword to carve out a cave in the stone wall of the slope and hid inside.
Lin Aoxue could already see Ye Liuyun, who was standing in the cave, waving at her.
"Huh? How did that guy change back to how he looked when he was twelve?" Lin Aoxue was puzzled as she looked at Ye Liuyun's current appearance.
After entering the cave, Lin Aoxue immediately asked.
"Hey! What trick did you use this time to change back to how you looked as a boy?" Lin Aoxue asked doubtfully.
"I refined a type of disguise pill," Ye Liuyun explained.
Only then did Lin Aoxue nod.
"Oh, it looks just like the real thing. By the way, you used divine sense transmission just now, right? Strange, how can you have such a strong divine sense in your realm? Is it a pill again?" Lin Aoxue had many questions.
"Yes, it's a pill. Stop asking so many questions. Are you okay? Do you feel anything wrong with your body?" Ye Liuyun asked quickly.
At this, Lin Aoxue immediately checked herself.
"Huh? Now that you mention it, my body does feel a bit strange. I was just rained on, so why do I feel a bit hot? No, it's getting hotter and hotter," Lin Aoxue felt her body starting to heat up.
This heat was almost uncontrollable, making her feel like taking off her clothes.
"Ah? Aoxue, just bear with it. It'll be over in a moment," Ye Liuyun said awkwardly.
"Damn it, why is it getting cold again? What's going on? It's not your doing again, is it?" The power of ice and fire in Lin Aoxue's body began to take effect.
Ye Liuyun could only laugh dryly and ask Lin Aoxue to endure it behind her. She stood at the entrance of the cave, observing the situation on the battlefield.
And the situation on the battlefield had, at this moment, become bizarre.
