Ying Xiu’s murderous intent ran rampant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cold Bronze Gate suddenly ignited with three red Fire Lotuses, encircling Ying Xiu within them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each lotus was only the size of a palm, yet Ying Xiu’s skin blistered with heat, his hair visibly scorched and curling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ying Xiu’s footsteps halted abruptly, a thousand emotions overlapping in his eyes, flickers of ferocity accumulating, but swiftly he violently suppressed them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His chest heaved twice, he lowered his gaze, and said, “Is the Taixuan Sect planning to intervene in the affairs of the You Dynasty?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint halo of light, the source unknown, fell upon her cheek from underneath the Bronze Gate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dressed in white with black hair, her silhouette was slender and solitary, her cool skin shimmering with a chilling luster, her dark pupils reflecting the blazing Red Lotuses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She said, “Step aside, you’re in my way.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The coldness in Ying Xiu’s eyes was unstoppable; his facial skin cracked and then tensed, tensed and then cracked again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said in a deep voice, “You…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>want to protect him?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing’s eyes lost all patience, she spoke no more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A faint glint sparked in her ink-black pupils as a Red Lotus rose and swayed between the Bronze Gates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within its intense red flame could be seen a whisper of purple, the small Red Lotus flame appeared to possess a weighty presence, and with a soft sound, it struck Ying Xiu’s chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ying Xiu’s face changed drastically, not expecting that Su Jing would actually strike him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His deadly sword laid across his chest as myriad runes spilled chaotically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, his energy was in complete disarray, he stumbled backward, a flush rising on his face, his sword-hand trembling violently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at Su Jing in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The remaining two Fire Lotuses locked him in from front and back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing said, “It’s bad enough that you’re powerless to change the current situation; to fuss over trifles and waste the time you’ve bought at the cost of summoning ghosts with your own life is simply foolish.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ying Xiu flew into a rage, “It’s not your turn to lecture me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that so?” Su Jing’s lips parted faintly, the Red Lotus Cage forming around Ying Xiu, a prison drawn with fire, lock and bolts on all sides, arrogantly imprisoning him mid-air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Baili An and the others could step forward, she proceeded in her white garb at an unhurried pace, calmly stating, “If I truly wished to chastise you, what could you do about it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jiujiu was about to worship her, clutching her Dao Sword as she took quick, short steps to follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the Crown Prince of the Central Netherworld, with not even the semblance of courtesy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Geyu sneered continuously as he looked at Ying Xiu ensnared by the fierce flames, his face pale in the sky, “He’s brought it upon himself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An shook his head, about to speak when suddenly his chest vibrated intensely, a profound force rendering his chest slightly numb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, from the sky came a sound akin to the call of an eagle, piercing through the clouds, casting from the eternally ancient Ghost Mountain a ray of nether light into the skies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A flurry of gray feathers fell softly like snow, and yet they sliced across his cheek, their edges sharp as blades.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bringing with them a deep chill of the mysterious cold, even the exposed Bronze Gate developed a thick layer of frost, covering ancient marks and moss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deep shadow encompassed the ground beneath Baili An as if a vast darkness had blanketed the space above his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Astral Wind swept in the opposite direction, a deathly hush over all vegetation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An oppressively heavy gale swept across the land, pressuring Baili An into retreating a few steps, his forehead’s stray hairs disheveled by the wind, he struggled to lift his head toward the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a tremendous Peng Bird, its gray and black wings stretching ten miles, bearing five heads, with each feather as sharp as a sword, its talons gripping a giant dark ice coffin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An’s eyes widened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under his heart, that heartbeat-like frequency became increasingly rapid and prominent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beneath the silent heart, as if something was about to emerge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He unconsciously held his chest, the giant bird let out a fierce cry, and its five heads pecked violently at the ice coffin, producing a sound like metal clashing, loud and crisp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark ice coffin cracked, but it never fully shattered, instead rebuffing the bird’s beaks until they bled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spider-web-like fractures on the coffin slowly healed themselves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is that?” The giant bird exuded an overpowering aura of demon spirits, its wings like a pair of deathly shadows hanging over Li Jiujiu’s heart, her voice trembling as she whispered, greatly alarmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Geyu’s eyes widened as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skilled in deciphering the chaotic specters and demon texts, she was taken aback in the moment, speculating, “Could this be another one of the Demon Sect’s murderous schemes?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Red Lotus Cage that bound Ying Xiu was snuffed out by the gale from the giant wings, he plummeted from mid-air, the Sealing Demon Sword in his hand invaded by the cold of the Astral Wind, its inscribed runes breaking away into a scattered luster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face showed pain as he quickly stashed away the Sealing Demon Sword back into the Qiankun Bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Emotion Slayer in hand, Su Jing’s brows furrowed slightly, her gaze icy as she said, “Mystic Peng Pici.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An, puzzled, “Mystic Peng Pici?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing’s expression remained mostly unchanged, her sleeves gracefully swept upwards, dissolving much of the Astral Wind’s chill, “The Mystic Peng Pici is a near-extinct old creature from the Chuicang era, granted an endless lifespan by a single drop of divine blood from Her Majesty, teetering on the edge between demon and immortal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One would have thought the creature had long since returned to the realm of mountains and seas, yet unexpectedly, it had been placed by Her Majesty within Ghost Mountain.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Geyu looked intrigued, “Why would Her Majesty nurture a demon with her blood?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the reflection of Su Jing’s dark eyes, amidst the chaotic feathers, she said, “The Peng Pici, a bird though demonic, feeds on Sword Qi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Divine Temple is situated on Kunlun East Mountain, where a sword called All Heavens is kept.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All Heavens is an Ancient murderous Dao Sword, stained with the blood of countless God Demons, its malevolence unceasing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although East Heaven Temple suppresses the Divine Sword, occasionally Sword Qi overflows, injuring all Spiritual Objects on Kunlun East Mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Her Majesty fed the bird with her blood, Pici has guarded East Mountain for Her Majesty, consuming Sword Qi, protecting living beings.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Baili An, surprised, asked, “If it’s a creature from Kunlun East Mountain that feeds on Sword Qi, why would it appear here at Ghost Mountain?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jing’s gaze fixated on the dark ice coffin, her voice cold as a blade, “Indeed, why would the Mystic Peng Pici, which is regularly accompanied by the Qi of All Heavens, appear here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, her pupils shrank abruptly as the surrounding Astral Wind intensified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The frenzied pecking at the ice coffin not only failed to shatter it but instead resulted in the birds regurgitating blood from an unknown and powerful force within the coffin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The five-headed bird screeched enragedly, its angry eyes spinning before suddenly noticing the Bronze Gate on the ground, cracked open like a Heavenly Pit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As it circled and fluttered in the air, its massive claws released, and the ice coffin plummeted straight down into the crevice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dark aura of the ice coffin was overwhelming; any floating gray feathers that touched the coffin body disintegrated instantly into smoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The always cold and somber Bronze Gate, from the depths of the Abyss far away, suddenly echoed with a corresponding call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The man-sized dark ice coffin descended slowly, and the seal of the Bronze Gate, offering by Hongying’s spirit, trembled and loosened, the earth Gate cracked open and was gradually reopening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, everyone’s face turned exceedingly grim.\u003C\u002Fp>",1370,"2026-06-06T15:16:24.480Z",1,"novelbin.me","3790e7780ca00164d004fdac3ec6b8e13464cbd7a910bee89b8e4689fac0fcf3","journey-to-the-end-of-the-night-chapter-388","journey-to-the-end-of-the-night-chapter-386",1594,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fjourney-to-the-end-of-the-night-cover.jpg"]
