Great Love for All Heavens Begins with Huang Yaoshi

Chapter 155 The World's Turmoil: Gifts Rise Like a Tide, Human Relationships Become a Net, Binding the Heart

Ten days later, outside the Forest of Oblivion.

Zhuang Buran glanced at Sima Sanniang, who was setting up a grand formation, and casually said to Yan Hongye beside him:
"My master's wife's skill in array formations is indeed extraordinary. Such an array can withstand the demonic energy of the Netherworld Spring for at least a few days once it erupts."

He nodded and gazed at the sky above the great formation:

"It can not only suppress demonic energy, but also send it to the heavens where it will be dispersed by the gale. Its name as a demon-sealing weapon is well-deserved."

"Judging from your tone, could it be that you've grasped the essence of this demon-sealing formation?" Yan Hongye asked suspiciously.

"My junior sister understands me best," Zhuang Buran said leisurely.
"Next, we just need to wait for the Xuanxin Sect and the Yinyue Dynasty to arrive at the Forgotten Love Forest."

Yan Hongye's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly:
"Zhuge Liuyun, something's not right with you. Are you secretly plotting something?"

"What could a mere Xuanxin Sect member at the Yellow Talisman Realm possibly be plotting?" The young man with the spear said softly, his eyes darkening slightly.

"But when I was outside the Cave of Despair, I sensed a few wisps of demonic energy emanating from the Netherworld Spring and found that my body was exceptionally adapted to the malevolent demonic energy."

Upon hearing this, Yan Chixia, who was not far away, immediately walked over:

"Liu Yun, don't overthink it. Once we've dealt with the Yin Shi You Quan, there are some things you'll need to know."

Zhuang Bu Ran said casually:
“I happen to know some divination techniques and also possess telepathy. There are some things I can know without you having to tell me. Since you can gather both righteous and demonic energy into one body, you must be some kind of human-demon child.”

"It's true that mixed blood breeds monsters; my physique is even more adapted to demonic energy than so-called demons."

Yan Chixia was stunned, never expecting that the secret he had kept hidden for so long would be discovered by the person involved.

Yan Hongye was caught off guard by these words, but immediately straightened her expression and said:
"What monster? You are a human. Your name is Zhuge Liuyun. You are a disciple of the Xuanxin Sect and also my senior brother."

"Liuyun, Hongye is right." Sima Sanniang, who had just finished setting up the Demon-Sealing Array, had obviously also heard what the spear-wielding youth had said, and came over to reply:
"You must not have any concerns about the demon bloodline in your body. No matter what, you are still your master's good child."

"The world is full of chaos and gifts, and human relationships are like a net that binds the heart."

Zhuang Buran waved his hand casually, turned around and walked away.

"The everyday life here is so interesting. I'd like to go and have some peace and quiet."

Yan Hongye was about to speak when Sima Sanniang stopped her:

"Let him calm down first. This brat looks like he's laughing and joking and does whatever he wants, but he's actually very thoughtful. Otherwise, he wouldn't want to cultivate the 'Mysterious Heart Technique'."

Yan Chixia, a true master of his generation, astutely remarked:
"Yes, he usually seems lazy and listless, but I discovered that his underlying energy is unusual, as if he has created an internal energy cultivation method that can be practiced while walking, sitting, or lying down."

As Yan Hongye watched a figure gradually disappear into the distance, a hint of worry slowly surfaced in her clear eyes.

Five days later.

The Xuanxin Sect set up camp fifty miles north of the Forgotten Forest, while the Yinyue Dynasty stationed its central army camp fifty miles south of the Forgotten Forest.

At this moment, on the edge of the Forgetful Forest, stood many elite disciples of the Xuanxin Sect.

Leading the group was a dignified and imposing Taoist priest with a golden flame and vermilion mark between his brows; he was none other than Jin Guang, the sect leader of the Xuanxin Orthodox Sect.

Standing beside him were four divine generals with cinnabar marks between their brows, clad in red armor. They were the guardian generals of the Xuanxin Orthodox Sect, namely Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger, and Black Tortoise.

"Sect Master, this is actually a grand formation set up by our Xuanxin Orthodox Sect!" Qinglong said first.

"The demonic energy in the Netherworld Spring has already erupted, but this great formation can suppress the endless demonic energy within the Forest of Oblivion. There are very few people in our sect who have this ability."

A glint of light flashed in his golden eyes:
"This formation must have been set up by Sima Sanniang, the wife of the traitor Yan Chixia. She is not only a peerless physician, but also an expert in formations."

At this moment, a large number of demons also arrived at the place, led by a gloomy and indifferent young man holding a sword.

He exuded a chilling aura from within, inspiring awe in all who beheld him; he was none other than Qi Ye, the current Holy Ruler of the Yin Yue Dynasty.

Beside him were two men and a woman, each exuding a terrifying and ferocious aura of a great demon. They were the evil dragon, the hungry ghost, and the Asura, three of the four sages of the Demon Palace.

Beside Qi Ye was a refined middle-aged man dressed in a white robe. Judging from his attire, he looked like a well-read scholar, who was none other than Jing Wuyuan, the teacher of the current Demon Lord.

"Listen up, people of the Xuanxin Sect! Today, the Seven Nights Saint Lord is here, and you will never obtain the Moye Sword!" the evil dragon roared.

Azure Dragon sneered:
"How laughable! Wujian, one of the four demons of your Yinyue Dynasty, will probably not last long before he falls into hell. Yet he still dares to be so arrogant here."

“Jin Guang, you must have also seen that if it weren’t for this formation in the Forgotten Love Forest, the demonic energy of the Netherworld Spring would have already ravaged the world, causing immense suffering to all living beings, and leaving no righteous or demonic sects in the world.”

Qi Ye said coldly:
Do you wish to continue the fight?

Jin Guang narrowed his eyes slightly: "Since the beginning of time, the righteous and the demonic paths have been irreconcilable enemies, and the Yin Yue Dynasty has harmed countless lives in order to dominate the human world."

"If we can wipe out your Yin Moon Demons now, my Xuanxin Orthodox Sect will be able to better resolve the demonic energy of the Yin World Nether Spring."

He gave the order:
"Disciples of Xuanxin Sect, heed my command! Follow me to slay demons and protect the righteous path in the mortal realm!"

"I will obey the sect leader's command!"

Everyone replied in unison.

Instantly, countless yellow, purple, and gold talismans transformed into various forms of heaven and earth power, such as the power of wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, striking towards the place where the Yin Moon Dynasty stood.

"Yan!"

A fierce yet clear sword cry suddenly rang out, and Qi Ye drew a long sword from his hand that was entirely black and seemed to contain endless demonic energy.

The immense demonic energy transformed into an extremely dazzling sword light, which then burst forth fiercely and rapidly amidst the raging wind and thunder.

In the blink of an eye, all the talismans were destroyed, but the sword light, still powerful, slashed towards the Xuanxin Sect.

"Heaven and earth are boundless, the profound mind and the true law are encompassed."

Jin Guang's body erupted with powerful and pure energy. With a series of hand seals and incantations, he unleashed a golden talisman that instantly extinguished the sword light.

"What a magnificent Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique! The demonic art that the Six Paths Demon Lord spent a hundred years to master has been brought to near perfection by you, a mere brat."

Jin Guang's voice grew increasingly cold:

"It seems you are far more dangerous than the Six Paths Demon. If you are allowed to continue living, you will become a major threat to humanity sooner or later!"

Just as he was about to continue his attack, the demon-sealing array in the Forest of Oblivion seemed unable to suppress the demonic energy erupting from the Netherworld Spring.

Suddenly, bursts of violent and ferocious demonic energy leaked out.

"Ahhh!"

Countless Xuanxin Sect members and Yinyue demons on the field were suddenly corrupted by demonic energy, turning into ashes.

In a secluded corner in the distance, a group of people using golden invisibility talismans saw this and Yan Chixia hurriedly said:
"Third Sister, you haven't even used the magic artifact to control the Demon-Sealing Array yet, so why did the suppressed demonic energy suddenly erupt?"

"This is bad! Their fierce battle has stirred up the demonic energy that was temporarily suppressed in the Forest of Oblivion." Sima Sanniang rushed out, not forgetting to warn:

"Big Beard, come quick and help!"

"Okay!" Yan Chixia quickly followed.

"Junior sister, don't be in a hurry."

Zhuang Buran called out to Yan Hongye:

"Once the Xuanxin Orthodox Sect and the Yinyue Dynasty fully understand the seriousness of the situation, and join forces with Master and Mistress to suppress the rampaging demonic energy within the formation, the opportunity for their cooperation will arise."

“If you go out now, you will only embolden the Xuanxin Sect and make the Yinyue Demons want to fight to the death.”

As Yan Hongye saw her parents suppressing the raging demonic energy, she kept saying that once the formation collapsed, not only would everyone present be turned to ashes by the demonic energy, but all living beings in the world would also be unable to escape this calamity.

As a result, Qi Ye and Jin Guang immediately ordered a halt and then came over to help suppress the raging demonic energy within the formation.

"Zhuge Liuyun, is it always possible for you to maintain such clear and rational judgment?"

Yan Hongye sighed inexplicably:
"Do you know that if Jin Guang and Qi Ye hadn't intervened immediately, the Demon-Sealing Array might have been completely destroyed, and in the end..."

"In the end, we will all turn to ashes," Zhuang Buran replied with a smile.

"Wouldn't that be even better? You've practiced the 'Mysterious Heart Technique,' but you won't last long anyway. If your master and mistress see you dying, they'll feel like they're living a life worse than death."

"Let's just be quick and decisive, and get it over with once and for all, which will reduce a lot of suffering."

"And you?" Yan Hongye asked, puzzled. "You really want to die?"

"For me, death is the least important thing in life; what I seek is a wonderful life."

Zhuang Buyan said leisurely:

"To die alongside heaven and earth, then one's life would not have been in vain!"
