Walking by the Abyss on Thin Ice

Chapter 294 – Brief love

"In general, girls do develop earlier than boys. She entered puberty earlier than you did."

Ying Ying said seriously, "But Su Scholar, you are already fourteen years old, and you should have entered puberty. If you still haven't, I even suspect that you are a late bloomer."

Su Yun let out a muffled hum with a smile on his face.

At that moment, the central altar behind him suddenly exploded with the radiance reflected by the four surrounding mirrors!

A surging power poured out from the well, sweeping through the hall in an instant. The inscriptions on the altar became incredibly bright!

Su Yun quickly stepped on the air and rushed outwards. Tian Feng and Xing Jiangmu also rushed out of the hall at the same time, avoiding the surging power coming from behind.

A loud chanting sound came from inside the hall, as if the Holy Emperor was resurrecting, bringing the divine presence of the heavens to suppress the demonic gods that brought calamity to the world. The entire hall was filled with a solemn and dignified atmosphere!

However, they heard the sound of shattering. The inscriptions on both sides of their vision became even brighter, and the power within the inscriptions was fully unleashed, shattering one after another in the next moment!

"You guys..." an angry roar came from the well, deafening.

A huge claw emerged from the well, accompanied by a terrifying power. Under the immense pressure, the altar began to float and soften, and then shattered!

This power was too strong. When there were still four mirrors, they could suppress the power of the sealed gods and demons in the well. But when Su Yun shattered the mirrors, the remaining inscriptions were unable to suppress the ferocity of the gods and demons in the well!

"Is the demon sealed in the well the Tai Sui?" Ying Ying nervously looked back and murmured.

Suddenly, she saw Jing Zhao, with his white hair, being lifted up by the terrifying power. With the swirling hurricane, she couldn't help but be astonished and worried, "I forgot about him..."

Jing Zhao was still in a state of unconsciousness from his severe injuries, and the god and demon that emerged from the well were too powerful. The power of the god and demon even caused the space in the hall to distort, creating a storm vortex that revolved around the shattered altar.

Jing Zhao was caught in the storm and tossed around like a boneless scarecrow.

With a quick glance, Su Yun had already rushed out of the hall with Ying Ying.

Xing Jiangmu and Tian Feng also rushed out, and everyone continued to run outward.

Behind them came the sound of earth-shattering explosions. The roof of the hall was lifted off, and thunder and lightning poured down. The space around Su Yun and the others also distorted and rotated, making it difficult for Tian Feng to stand firm and be swept up.

Xing Jiangmu quickly reached out and grabbed the wing of the large bird, pulling her along as they ran.

Seeing that he couldn't hold on any longer and was about to be swept into the vortex of space, a rope suddenly flew over and tied around Xing Jiangmu's waist. It then twisted around one of Tian Feng's wings like a spirit snake.

Su Yun activated the Immortal Rope and rescued the bird and the person. He immediately carried the rope on his back and ran with all his might. In front of them, flesh tentacles flew out from under the glass tower and ran forward!

All the other treasures, regardless of pavilions or towers, also grew legs and ran away from below.

At this moment, Ming Yufei was standing on top of the glass tower, looking over from a distance.

Behind Su Yun, thunder rumbled, and the light of fire and lightning illuminated the surroundings. Thick smoke rose, space twisted, and the nine-layered altar and the hall shattered and rotated. A loud and angry voice roared, "How dare you suppress me! Suppress me in the cage I created! Mahaha—"

Su Yun was stunned. He turned his head while running and saw a huge yellow dragon leaping out of the shattered hall, coiling in the air with its wings spread open, tattered feathers and bones exposed!

Wasn't that the Winged Dragon?

Ying Ying also saw the yellow dragon with wings and murmured, "Su Scholar, how many Winged Dragons are there in this world?"

Su Yun suddenly stopped and turned around, forcefully grabbing the Immortal Rope. He murmured, "There is only one, but how could the Winged Dragon be suppressed here? Didn't he go to find the god and demon that he and the Holy Emperor suppressed..."

As he said this, he suddenly realized.

Ying Ying also realized and exclaimed, "I know! The Winged Dragon must have found those god and demon that he suppressed. He thought that these old things were about to be killed by his seal, but he didn't expect that he would fall into a trap and they had already escaped!"

Su Yun pulled Xing Jiangmu and Tian Feng down from the air with force and said, "Not only did they escape, but their cultivation and strength have greatly increased over the years. They are even stronger than him, and they have captured him."

Ying Ying blinked and said, "But the Winged Dragon is also very powerful. They can't kill him, so they suppressed him in the seal he created. They knew that someone could kill him, so they set up this trap to lure you here."

Su Yun nodded. He had a complete set of sealing inscriptions here. If he could add the final inscriptions to the four mirrors, the Winged Dragon would probably be completely defeated and be refined to death.

"Fortunately."

Su Yun said lightly, "He met me, his younger brother Su Yun."

"You brat!"

The Winged Dragon spread its tattered wings and flew over their heads, angrily saying, "You guys talk too much!"

With a loud bang, Jing Zhao fell down and lay motionless on the ground.

Xing Jiangmu quickly picked up Jing Zhao and placed him on Tian Feng's back, saying, "Sir, if your guess is correct, we shouldn't stay here for long!"

Su Yun's eyes flickered as he looked into the distance, where the Winged Dragon was fighting fiercely with Tai Sui. Tai Sui used his physical body to activate various treasures and bombard the Winged Dragon.

The Winged Dragon and Tai Sui fought underground, causing the earth to shake. This underground space could collapse at any moment.

Su Yun's gaze always fell on Ming Yufei. He said, "Alright! Let's discuss it after we go up."

He jumped onto Tian Feng's back, and Tian Feng immediately returned the same way. The underground space shook more and more violently, and rocks of various sizes fell from the underground dome. If they were hit by these rocks, they would definitely be crushed!

Tian Feng ran all the way, rushing towards the passage. Su Yun's gaze followed the figure of the girl, and he saw Ming Yufei also dodging the collapsing rocks. When she couldn't avoid them, she suddenly took out a brush and quickly drew a portal in the air, then rushed into the portal.

Immediately after, the rocks fell, submerging that area.Su Yun withdrew his gaze as the Sky Phoenix rushed into the tunnel, striving to ascend. Along the way, the tunnel was littered with the remains of sheep, shaking violently as the Sky Phoenix let out a series of terrified cries.

Behind them, the tunnel was collapsing continuously, with immense forces surging from both sides, squeezing the tunnel flat!

The journey was fraught with danger, even the tunnel ahead began to collapse. Su Yun, standing on the back of the bird, activated the Dust Curtain Sky, constantly blocking the falling boulders. Suddenly, under his command, the Dust Curtain Sky transformed into a long bridge, connecting the broken tunnel ahead.

The Sky Phoenix closed its eyes, stepping on the Dust Curtain Sky and sprinted forward. Su Yun saw a huge rock falling from the sky above the tunnel in the distance and hurriedly activated the Immortal Rope.

The Immortal Rope shot forward with a whoosh, the rope spinning and expanding, transforming into countless beautiful characters, revolving around the center, forming a thick tunnel.

These were the characters of the sage Confucius. The Sky Phoenix, with its eyes closed, rushed into the tunnel, and the chanting of the sage echoed within.

The Sky Phoenix opened its eyes and looked around, only to see the characters constantly circulating, shining with golden light. Outside the characters, huge rocks fell and hit the tunnel, but the tunnel formed by the Immortal Rope remained unscathed.

With more thrills than dangers, the Sky Phoenix finally carried them out of the ground. Su Yun grabbed the Ash King's scepter with one hand and the Immortal Rope with the other. As the Immortal Rope was withdrawn, the tunnel collapsed instantly.

"Master Shao Shi, there's no more fire of calamity!" Xing Jiangmu shouted loudly.

Su Yun turned his head and was stunned. The village, once a paradise, had turned into ruins, filled with the dead Ash Monsters, and traces of the sacred fire burning everywhere.

Obviously, when Jing Zhao arrived here, he had forced his way through and fought with the Ash Monsters here, slaughtering them all.

After all, Jing Zhao was at the level of the Original Dao, and the Ash King who guarded this place was already at the end of his tether.

Suddenly, a thunderous noise came from behind. Xing Jiangmu quickly said, "Master, this place is about to collapse!"

The Sky Phoenix immediately sprinted forward, moving as fast as lightning. In his haste, Su Yun saw the body of the Ash King, kneeling on one knee, leaning on his scepter, his body charred.

He was burned alive by Jing Zhao's sacred fire.

Su Yun withdrew his gaze, silently saying in his heart, "I won't let the creatures of this world repeat the destruction of the last world... I definitely won't!"

Behind him, the remaining buildings in Boshan City collapsed in large chunks, falling dozens of miles into the ground.

By the time the Sky Phoenix rushed out of Boshan City, the entire city had completely sunk into the ground!

As dawn was breaking, the Sky Phoenix ran wildly. After a long time, when the sun was three poles high, they arrived at the village that had been afflicted with the Ash Disease.

Su Yun looked around and saw that the place had turned into ruins, filled with the aftermath of the sheep's destruction, devoid of any living creatures.

Su Yun took to the air, leaving the back of the Sky Phoenix, and said in a deep voice, "Jiangmu, you and the Sky Phoenix go to the next village and wait for me. I'll stay here, waiting for someone."

Xing Jiangmu was taken aback, and then bowed, "Master, be careful!"

Su Yun nodded slightly, his figure slowly descending, standing on the scorched roof of the temple.

After a long time, a black sheep appeared in Su Yun's sight. The sheep was carrying a flat altar on its back, and a bright girl was sitting in the middle of the altar, her skirt evenly spread out on the altar.

Ming Yufei saw Su Yun from a distance and stood up.

The sheep stopped.

On Su Yun's shoulder, Ying Ying whispered, "Master Su, what are you planning to do?"

A whirlwind blew past Su Yun, carrying the ashes of the village. The whirlwind was polluted by the black smoke from the burning houses, turning black, as if a demon was rampaging.

"Yufei, are you the master of the Overseas Tongtian Pavilion?"

Su Yun revealed a smile and said, "You're smart, ruthless, and your wisdom is only slightly inferior to mine. I've traveled across the ocean to come overseas, and my first priority is to seek the Dao. I have a dream, to defeat all the young masters in the West. I've heard that the master of the Overseas Tongtian Pavilion is a great talent with extraordinary methods. Yun, I've admired you for a long time."

"You've disappointed Master Su."

Ming Yufei shook her head and said, "I'm not the master of our Overseas Pavilion. I competed for the position of the master, but I also fell. I'm just helping the real master to test you, to probe you."

She danced gracefully on the altar, her movements enchanting and wild, exuding a beauty of wild freedom. A phantom of a demon god slowly emerged from behind her.

Ming Yufei shouted, and the demon god possessed her. Black patterns immediately appeared on her flawless skin.

"The master of our Overseas Pavilion is a hundred times stronger than me."

Ming Yufei took off her agate bracelet and gently placed it on the altar, shouting, "Master Su, if you want to challenge the master of the Overseas Pavilion, prove your strength first! Please!"

Su Yun's eyes dimmed, and Ying Ying anxiously said, "Master Su, have you ever had feelings for her?"

Su Yun didn't answer, his body soared up, transforming into a Sky Peng, and pounced on the girl on the altar.

On the barren wasteland like ashes, a huge sheep was running. On the back of the sheep was a square altar, which was quite spacious, about two acres in size.

On the altar, two figures were jumping up and down. The girl was possessed by a demon god, while the other person transformed into various forms of gods and demons, changing constantly, with endless magical powers.

Suddenly, Su Yun returned to his human form, pointed a finger, and immediately, sealing runes formed a wall of seals, passing over the girl's body.

The demon god inside the girl screamed, suppressed by the wall of seals.

Ming Yufei was shocked, and immediately felt a sense of weakness. At this moment, Su Yun's fingertip touched her forehead.

"Bang!"

A cloud of blood burst from the back of Ming Yufei's head, her eyes dimmed, and she whispered, "You've applied the sealing technique you learned underground. That was just a trick to lure you into the game, but you were able to turn decay into magic and use it to kill me. You are indeed very strong..."

She fell backward, her body falling into the wasteland.

"No." Su Yun said to Ying Ying.

He bent down, picked up the agate bracelet, his eyes somewhat cloudy, "I never had feelings for her."

He put away the bracelet.
