Chapter 1359: Qin Yi Rescues Her Mother

In the Boundary River Treasure Domain, within the Ghostly Domain.

Chaos and slaughter continued unabated.

And as more and more people were sent as flesh and blood nourishment into that giant petal-mouth flowing with fresh blood, the enormous blood-red flower bud increasingly showed signs of blooming.

Endless blood light surged forth from deep within the flower bud, blotting out the sky and sun, even piercing through this Ghostly Domain, directly covering the entire Boundary River Treasure Domain.

At the same time, the blood-red light pillar shooting out from the blood-red flower bud was also growing increasingly dense.

This light pillar pierced through layer upon layer of void, projecting onto the surging Boundary River, where eerie blood-red rune patterns flowed, causing the Boundary River's hollow to expand ever wider.

And behind that hollow in the Boundary River, a bizarre giant eye with three pupils gazed down upon the entire Boundary River Domain without a shred of emotion.

The terrifying pressure emanating from it, even separated by layer upon layer of void, still leaked out into the Boundary River Domain, causing the entire world to constantly emit faint tremors.

The energy between heaven and earth also became no longer active, falling silent, as if trembling like quails beneath that gaze.

The blood-red light pillar projected from the blood-red flower bud was continuously strengthening, attempting to enhance the summoning.

Until a certain moment, when the power of this blood-red light pillar grew strong to a certain degree, a golden talisman paper quietly suspended in the sky above the Boundary River Treasure Domain suddenly began to tremble violently.

Whoosh!

The next instant, billions of golden light rays were seen blasting out from the talisman paper, those golden light rays piercing through the void, directly colliding with the blood-red light pillar rising from the blood-red flower bud.

Boom!

At the instant of collision, the entire world seemed to erupt with a roar, that roar rolling into the distance, reaching every corner of the Boundary River Domain.

As the golden talisman paper activated its protection, the blood patterns projected by the blood-red light pillar onto the Boundary River immediately began to be affected, and the originally expanding hollow came to a halt.

Behind the hollow, a ripple of emotion finally appeared in that giant three-pupil eye—it seemed to be a faint trace of anger.

Within the giant eye, the three bizarre pupils swept toward the golden talisman paper suspended in the sky above the Boundary River Treasure Domain.

"Heh."

"You four, you'd better... take care of... yourselves!"

Faintly, a low, ethereal voice, like a demon's murmur, came from an extremely distant place.

This voice was extremely strange, seeming to exist and yet not, as if one had heard it, but when trying to listen carefully, there was only emptiness.

And along with that distant voice came wisps of grey light; wherever the grey light fell, the world's energy in that area instantly perished, directly forming a spiritless zone.

That grey light seemed capable of even erasing the world's energy—such power was truly beyond ordinary imagination.

The grey light fell toward the golden talisman paper, and the golden talisman paper also sprayed out billions of golden light rays to collide with it.

At the point of collision, the void turned into a black hole.

However, facing the attack from the "Three-Pupil Dark-Fetus Great Demon King," this talisman paper, which carried a wisp of power from the four Heavenly Kings of Outer Shenzhou, also displayed extraordinary might—the golden light rays blocked all the grey light, preventing it from falling.

In the Ghostly Domain, Qin Qin Lian's pupils, which had transformed into a pitch-black vortex, were also watching that golden talisman; immediately, an even more violent phase force erupted from within her body.

Black flames ravaged the world as she began to accelerate her harvesting speed.

Clearly, Qin Qin Lian wanted to use the flesh and blood of more people as nourishment to accelerate the gestation of the blood-red flower bud, and then, from within the Treasure Domain, shatter the Four Heavenly Kings' Sealing Talisman.

And the moment she unleashed her killing move, the strong practitioners from various factions became even more wretched; no matter how desperately they resisted, they could only watch their companions dwindle in number.

Thus, helplessness and despair welled up in everyone's hearts.

And as the situation in the field grew ever worse, Qin Yi, her figure somewhat disheveled, finally arrived here at the blood-red flower bud under Chu Qing's full-effort protection along the way.

She stood here, the ground beneath her feet already stained red with blood, the soil even grown sticky, and the source of that blood was the giant petal-mouth chewing ceaselessly in the distance.

In an even more distant place, there was a giant pit, and deep within that pit sat that great black cauldron burning with raging fiery flames.

Li Luo is probably already dead inside, isn't he?

Qin Yi's gaze dimmed slightly, but she had no time to think about such things now, because the moment she appeared here, Qin Qin Lian's eyes, which had become a pitch-black vortex, also looked over.

"Mother!" Qin Yi clenched her five fingers tightly; on her already fair and dewy skin, slender green veins surfaced. She took a deep breath and shouted loudly with all her might.

Qin Qin Lian's face, like that of a vengeful ghost, was full of grim coldness. She stared at Qin Yi with a sinister gaze, flicked a finger, and the void before Qin Yi shattered. A black-flame chain like a venomous python tore through the air, its sharp tip like a fang, stabbing straight toward Qin Yi's brow.

Yet facing such a vicious attack, Qin Yi did not dodge; instead, her beautiful eyes stared fixedly at Qin Qin Lian's face as she said, "Mother! Do you truly not have a shred of your own consciousness left?"

"If this continues, you will destroy yourself!"

"If killing your daughter can bring you back to your senses, I won't dodge in the slightest!"

Hum!

The scorching gust of force stopped abruptly when it was still half an inch from Qin Yi's brow, but its force still pierced her brow, and immediately, on that smooth, tender-white brow, crimson blood slid down, tracing a striking bloodline across her nose, which rose as high and proud as a mountain peak.

But Qin Yi's features were too beautiful; the appearance of this bloodline not only failed to mar her looks, but instead lent her a kind of disheveled, sorrowful beauty.

Qin Yi gazed at the black-flame chain halted before her brow, her beautiful eyes brimming with tears. She looked at Qin Qin Lian, whose black vortex in her eyes was growing ever more violent at this moment, and said softly, "Mother, don't continue any longer. You can still turn back now."

She walked toward Qin Qin Lian step by step, without fear.

"Mother, wake up."

Qin Qin Lian looked at the approaching Qin Yi, and her cold, fierce expression seemed to soften slightly.

Seeing this, a trace of joy also welled up in Qin Yi's heart. It seemed Qin Qin Lian still retained some consciousness; if she could truly awaken her, perhaps this calamity could be ended.

In her mother's heart, she still held some weight.

But just as this thought flashed through Qin Yi's mind, she seemed to hear a sharp sound of breaking wind behind her. The next instant, before she could turn her head, she felt an intense pain in her lower abdomen.

Her body instantly stiffened.

Qin Yi slowly lowered her head, her beautiful eyes gazing at the black chain that had pierced through from her lower abdomen; the black flames surging on it brought her tremendous agony.

Fresh blood flowed down from the wound, only to be evaporated by the black flames in the blink of an eye.

"Mother..." She slowly raised her pale, pretty face and gave Qin Qin Lian a bitter smile.

Qin Qin Lian gazed at her coldly, and an icy voice rang out: "You came looking for death yourself, so I'll grant your wish."

A trace of blood appeared at the corner of Qin Yi's mouth. She sighed softly and said, "To gain even a little motherly love from you is, as expected, still too difficult. Mother, why is the hatred in your heart so intense?"

"Because Li Taixuan didn't choose you back then, you harbor such resentment?"

"Or is it that your obsessive self is simply too jealous of Dantai Lan?"

When the two names Li Taixuan and Dantai Lan fell into Qin Qin Lian's ears, her already sinister and fierce face instantly twisted.

However, just as she was about to erupt with killing intent, Qin Yi suddenly took a deep breath, and her delicate skin abruptly turned deathly pale, as if the blood had been drained from her body at that moment.

At the same time, her slender jade fingers stretched out, and at the fingertip a deep blue water droplet actually condensed.

The water droplet emanated an extremely wondrous aura—clear, pure to the extreme.

Qin Yi flicked her finger, and that deep blue water droplet, at the moment Qin Qin Lian's emotions were at their most violent, shot straight into the space between her brows.

Then it swiftly merged in.

Qin Qin Lian's savage, coldly fierce face abruptly froze at this moment.
