Decaying World

Chapter 213 Radiance Seven

Moon Tower, Hong Family.

Inside the dark, purplish-black palace.

A stunningly beautiful woman with purple lips and hair, wearing only a simple three-piece lingerie, slowly sat down in the main seat, looking at Hong Ling and Hong Lingxiang on either side of the dining table.

"You're back a bit early today. You two, do you want to play some new games with me tonight? I've collected some new toy figures."

A dark red tentacle, like a hand, quietly extended from behind the woman, gently rolling up the pastries on the table and feeding them into her mouth.

She crossed her legs and carefully touched up her makeup with a makeup mirror.

“Thank you for your kindness, Mother, but we still prefer a more normal life. Being too obsessed with pleasure may not matter to you, but it will be unbearable for us, and we will eventually succumb to it,” Hong Ling said respectfully.

"Do you really think you're normal?" The woman gave a smile that seemed to be both mocking and pitying.

“Perhaps it’s not normal, but adhering to our bottom line is our final requirement for ourselves,” Hong Lingxiang added from the side.

"How boring. Life is too short. Without ultimate pleasure, how dull it would be." The woman raised an eyebrow.

“Mother is right; we are too old-fashioned,” Hong Ling quickly bowed his head.

"It's a pity. I remember when you were little cuties rolling out of my body, and now you've grown so much in the blink of an eye. You're not fun at all. You're so young, yet you're starting to look more and more like those old fogies. Oh, by the way..."

The woman suddenly seemed to have thought of something.

"Speaking of which, the elders of three sects came to ask me before if I had any connection with a small martial arts school in the outer city. I heard the name and I remember it was the Qingfeng Temple that you mentioned, Xiao Ling."

"Qingfeng Temple? One of the Three Sects? It's under my brother's command. I'll trouble Mother to take care of it," Hong Ling said hurriedly.

"A mere martial arts school in the outer city can actually be connected with the three sects in the inner city, and even have a relationship with you, the head of the Inspectorate. This Qingfeng Temple is quite interesting." The woman seemed to have developed a hint of curiosity and interest.

Hong Ling and his sister lowered their heads, not daring to reply.

"Alright, alright, look how scared you are. Do I look like someone who would eat people?" the woman said with a coquettish laugh.

"You don't eat people, you just like to have children. If the child doesn't meet your expectations, you'll stuff it back in and 'eat' it on the spot."

At this moment, Hong Ling and his sister couldn't help but recall the scene when they saw their mother eat her child.

A chill ran down my spine involuntarily.

That is truly through the bloodline of its own blood ancestor, devouring the infant to prevent the bloodline from flowing out.

From this perspective, their mother, Hong Wuxin, truly loved them, her children.

They've had numerous promiscuous pregnancies and children over the years, but they've only publicly acknowledged their two children. Perhaps this is related to their mysterious father.

The three of them stopped talking. As the mother, Hong Wuxin, ate, she suddenly grabbed a maidservant from the side, tore open her clothes, and prepared to get down to business.

Large, dark red tentacles emerged from beneath the table, quickly stripping the maid naked. Then, amidst the maid's deathly pale expression of fear, she was about to enter her body.

hum.

Suddenly, a faint but distinct peculiar fluctuation emanated from a delicate, pure white earring on Hong Wuxin's earlobe.

She paused, her brows furrowed, and she threw the maid aside.

"There's an urgent notice, you guys eat first."

As soon as she finished speaking, she disappeared from her spot.

The next second, her body was directly teleported to the highest level of the Extreme Desire Hall.

The other seven people had also been teleported over at the same time, each disguising themselves with a huge black robe and floating in mid-air.

The eight people formed a huge circle, unable to see each other's faces or sense each other's presence; they could only communicate through sound.

The long black robe trailed down like a mermaid's tail, swaying slightly.

"Why did you call us over in such a hurry? What's the matter?" A young, magnetic male voice spoke first, sounding impatient.

"The observation tower detected an unusual energy fluctuation, very close by, over at the Yanshan ruins," a gentle female voice replied.

"Oh? Yanshan Ruins? Wasn't the observation tower adjusted so that it only reacts to unconventional forces? Could it be..." another old man asked in a puzzled voice.

"You're right, unconventional forces were indeed detected," the gentle female voice replied.

"If I remember correctly, the unconventional forces we've redefined must be close to or at our level to be qualified to enter the observation tower's monitoring. Is that right?" the old man asked in a deep voice.

“That’s right. The last time we saw this kind of reaction was when the super-adaptor went berserk.” The gentle female voice confirmed the other person’s words.

"That's interesting." Hong Wuxin laughed. "Why guess? Why not just go and see for yourself?"

“One of the forces is the Supreme Elder Yunxiazi of the Nine Dreams Sect. She is one of the people associated with the Tai Su Yuan Pan. According to the agreement, we cannot interfere,” the gentle female voice replied.

"...An agreement, another agreement. Aren't those guys from Tai Su Yuan Pan meddling a bit too much?!" Hong Wuxin said unhappily.

"They are directly under the Federation. If you have any complaints, you can go directly to them. Nobody's stopping you here." A cold, young male voice rang out for the first time.

Hong Wuxin, unusually, did not refute, clearly showing considerable fear of the man who spoke.

"Let's just wait and see. It's still far from here, so it won't affect us much," someone said indifferently.

"That's settled then. We'll wait for Tai Su Yuan Pan's attitude. If..." The cold male voice made its final decision, but before he could finish speaking...

"Warning: The power fluctuation has exceeded the set limit. If it changes direction, it may cause harm to the city at any time. Please deal with it immediately." A cold and emotionless female voice suddenly rang out, interrupting him.

Everyone fell silent immediately.

From this position, everyone can immediately sense the reports transmitted from the observation tower.

"Exceeding the set limit. This is!?" For the first time, a hint of uncertainty appeared on Hong Wuxin's face.

"It's the Chen family's business. Could you please go to the scene and take a look?" the cold male voice confirmed.

"Yes." One of them nodded slightly, stepped back, and disappeared instantly.

"I'm going too!" The gentle female voice echoed as the figure disappeared as well.

Hong Wuxin smiled and followed him away.

Tianzhan Cliff. A vast, white lake unfolds beneath your feet, rippling with waves.

Lin Hui was surrounded by layers of internal energy.

Yunxiazi held her longsword upright, her fingers pressed horizontally against the center of the blade, forming a cross. A faint, multicolored light began to gather between her brows.

She stared at Lin Hui, who was surrounded, her eyes now completely white, with no pupils visible, only pure white light radiating from them.

"This is a pure white lake formed with one level of my power. It can completely isolate and suppress any external internal force fluctuations within this range. As long as you are within this range, your internal force will rotate several times slower than usual."

Yunxiazi's gaze fell on Lin Hui, who was standing still.

"Come on, how will you deal with this predicament? Let me see your true strength as the Abbot of Qingfeng Temple!"

"This isn't your true strength, is it?" Lin Hui said softly.

"I've already said this is only one-tenth of my power. If you can't even break through this pure white lake..."

laugh! !

In an instant, a terrifying sword light, incredibly fast and like a silver lightning bolt, swept across Yunxiazi's face, disappearing in a flash and leaving a shallow bloodstain.

Lin Hui's figure slowly materialized less than ten meters behind her. He turned around and sheathed his sword.

"So, does this count as a breakthrough?"

The silver blade in his hand, illuminated by the white light of his inner energy, resembled pure mercury.

Yunxiazi reached out, dabbed the blood on her face, and tasted it.

A sudden touch of darkness appeared in the center of her pure white eyes.

"That's way too much!!"

He turned around.

Intense, blinding white flames began to rise from her entire body.

The white robes billowed, and from the white internal energy flames behind him, a massive white dragon composed entirely of internal energy burst forth.

Roar! ! !
A dragon head the size of a truck shot into the sky from behind Yunxiazi, dragging out a giant dragon body that was hundreds of meters long.

The white dragon swooped down, spewing out a blinding beam of dragon breath.

Boom!!
In that instant, a large hole was punched through Tianzhan Cliff, and the entire cliff cracked and slowly broke apart, with the front half crashing into the abyss.

"Kill!!!" Yunxiazi seemed to have fallen into a strange state of madness, gripping her sword with both hands and swinging it forward.

The white dragon of internal energy above her head also rushed down, crashing down and hitting the spot where Lin Hui was.

"Old Dream Divine Technique - Taiyin Dragon Breath Sword!!"

She laughed loudly, and the seal within her body rapidly dissipated—30%, 50%, 70%, 90%!

Swish! !

next moment.

A flash of silver sword light.

The enormous white dragon and countless beams of white light were split in two.

Lin Hui suddenly appeared in front of her, very close, with a smile on his face.

Ruyi was slashed down.

Clang!

The ground beneath Yunxiazi's feet exploded and then broke apart, sending her and the rocks and soil plummeting into the bottomless abyss.

She gritted her teeth, gripped the sword with both hands, and withstood the blow.

But the immense, terrifying force, amplified by the incredible speed, brought back memories of when she was just an ordinary person, facing a nine-tailed scorpion over ten meters tall charging at her—the pain, shock, and fear she felt then!

puff!
Her internal organs were injured by the shock, she spat out a small mouthful of blood, and was thrown down rapidly.

In mid-air, she looked up and saw Lin Hui standing on the cliff, his waist-length black hair flowing, holding a long sword horizontally, looking down at her.

At that moment, it seemed as if the nine-tailed scorpion he had seen in his childhood appeared behind the other person.

"What the hell are you?!"

At this moment, she finally had no more scruples. If she had previously worried that going all out might attract the attention of the observation tower, she was now free of such concerns.

But now, she sees in Lin Hui the fears and shadows of her childhood.

At that moment, a powerful anger welled up from the depths of her heart, causing her to disregard everything else.

"I will no longer be afraid! No matter who it is!!" Looking at the phantom of the nine-tailed scorpion, Yunxiazi seemed to see another huge shadow that had always been hidden behind the scenes.

She has always strived to push the limits of power, constantly pushing her limits and trying every possible means.

What for?!

"kill!!!!"

Yunxiazi roared furiously.

At this moment, the final martial arts form of Grandmaster Mingji, namely the ultimate martial state, was unleashed with a roar.

The ultimate martial arts form is when a martial artist has mastered their martial arts to the extreme, and their entire being is integrated with the martial arts, transforming themselves into a perfect form that can best unleash the power of their martial arts.

It is said that when a martial artist reaches the level of a Grandmaster of the Three Harmonies, their overall physical attributes will increase fivefold in a balanced way.

The Ultimate Martial State, a final state belonging only to Grandmasters of the Mingji Realm, instantly amplifies the average physical attributes of the entire body by fifteen times upon entry! Simultaneously, internal energy is transformed into a power called True Force, and one gains terrifying regenerative abilities far exceeding normal levels.

The only drawback is that this form was developed entirely for fighting, with no weaknesses, no hesitation, and everything is for killing the enemy, so there is no room for holding back.
