Chapter 119: Chaos Awakens, Holding Up the Sky with One Hand

~9 min read 1,654 words

That demonic Qi, condensed with the Abyss demonic awareness's endless venom, was like a death kiss crossing the void, approaching the quiet room of the Imperial Medical Bureau. Feng Xi's eyes reflected the destructive light that was constantly enlarging, its mournful cries choked in its throat by the terrifying pressure. It used its last bit of strength, trying to cover its body completely over the unconscious Lin Lin Xuan.

The shadow of death had already shrouded them.

However, just at the moment when the demonic Qi was about to touch the quiet room and turn everything into dust—

"Hum..."

An extremely weak, yet seemingly originating from the source of the Great Dao, tremor sounded in the quiet room.

On the bed, Lin Lin Xuan still had his eyes closed, but at the center of his brow, that imperceptible point of Chaos light suddenly flared! It was no longer a firefly, but the first ray of light at the beginning of the universe!

The blood in his body, which had been close to freezing, was pushed by an invisible force at this moment, and began to flow extremely slowly. In his dantian, the Chaos Dao Seed, which was covered in cracks and dim, was like an ice core thrown into boiling lava. Countless mysterious runes lit up on the surface of the cracks, and it began to rotate crazily!

It was not him actively urging it, but his body and soul, which were on the verge of collapse, triggered the most instinctive... self-defense and counterattack of the Chaos Dao Seed when feeling the stimulation of the same source of destructive power from the outside and the determined will to protect Feng Xi!

Centered on the Dao Seed, a weak yet pure stream of chaotic Qi, like a sleeping dragon stretching out its first wisp of dragon whiskers, quietly permeated.

This stream of Qi was so thin that compared to the monstrous demonic Qi outside, it was like a trickling stream to a vast ocean.

But, the gap in status could not be measured by quantity!

The moment this wisp of chaotic Qi appeared, the space laws in the quiet room seemed to be moved by an invisible hand, causing a subtle deflection. The fatal demonic Qi shooting toward Lin Lin Xuan and Feng Xi, the moment it broke into the range of this wisp of Qi, was like encountering a nemesis, letting out "hissing" moans. The front end of the demonic Qi melted, decomposed, and returned to the most original void at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Although it only wore away a negligible wisp of the front end of the demonic Qi, the main body of the demonic Qi, which continued with undiminished momentum, fell with a bang!

However, it was this tiny moment of obstruction and wear by the chaotic Qi that gave Feng Xi, or rather, gave Lin Lin Xuan's body the opportunity for an instinctive reaction!

Just at the moment when the demonic Qi was about to drown everything completely—

Lin Lin Xuan's right hand, the hand that had been hanging weakly by his side, curled its five fingers fiercely, and then... upward, one support!

There was no gorgeous brilliance, no heaven-shaking momentum.

It was just a simple action to the extreme.

But on his palm, the void within that square inch suddenly turned into absolute "chaos"! It was as if a miniature heaven and earth, just opened, was held in his palm!

"Boom—!!!"

The violent demonic Qi slammed into this piece of "chaos"!

The explosion expected did not happen. The terrifying demonic Qi, sufficient to annihilate Spirit Transformation cultivators, the moment it touched this piece of chaotic void, was like a clay ox entering the sea, actually being swallowed, decomposed, and assimilated silently! It didn't even stir up a ripple!

It was as if that was not destructive energy at all, but just a stone thrown into the sea of chaos!

Outside the quiet room, the rebel leader, who was grinning and expecting Lin Lin Xuan to turn into dust, had his smile freeze on his face, his eyes filled with incredulous terror.

Feng Xi, who had been guarding its master to the death and had closed its eyes waiting for death, felt that the expected destruction did not descend. It opened its eyes blankly, and then saw a scene that shook its mind—

Its master was still lying there as if unconscious, eyes closed tightly, face pale. But his right hand was held steadily in the air, and above his palm, a piece of gray chaotic void rotated slowly, swallowing and purifying all the incoming demonic Qi!

He just lay there quietly, but it was as if with one hand, he held up a piece of heaven that could not be profaned!

"No... impossible! He was clearly..." The rebel leader was scared out of his wits.

And at this moment, the Imperial Palace core battlefield.

Zhao Song, who was preparing to give Eunuch Wei the final blow, and the Spirit Transformation foreign aid that was vaguely present, simultaneously sensed the terrifying energy collision that appeared abruptly but subsided instantly in the direction of the Imperial Medical Bureau, and that chaotic aura that flashed and disappeared but made their souls tremble!

"What happened?!" Zhao Song's heart sank suddenly, and an extremely ominous premonition rose.

The Abyss demonic awareness's will, which had just escaped and was full of self-satisfaction, also stalled suddenly, letting out a hesitant will fluctuation: "Chaos... still here? No... this is..."

It clearly felt that its must-kill strike had actually been blocked! It was resolved lightly by a power that originated from the same source, yet was more ancient and essential!

This sudden change made the rhythm of the entire battlefield chaotic.

Eunuch Wei took advantage of this opportunity, burning his essence blood fiercely, shaking off the siege, and getting a trace of breathing room. He looked in the direction of the Imperial Medical Bureau, and a look of incredulous joy erupted in his old eyes: "Lin... Little Friend Lin? This is..."

Inside the quiet room.

Lin Lin Xuan's hand holding up the sky, after swallowing that wisp of demonic Qi, slowly hung down and fell to his side again. The point of Chaos light at his brow also dimmed rapidly, as if everything just now was just a fleeting illusion.

He still did not wake up, and his aura became even weaker because of this instinctive explosion, as if a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time.

But, he ultimately blocked that must-die strike!

And, in his body, earth-shaking changes were happening. That wisp of Void Refinement level demonic Qi that was swallowed, although most of it was turned into void by the Chaos power, a wisp of the purest destructive origin was not completely eliminated, but acted like a catalyst, producing an extremely complex and dangerous... fusion and confrontation with the residual demonic Qi, broken Dao foundation, and silent star power in his body.

The broken Chaos Dao Seed, in the rotation, seemed to forcibly incorporate that wisp of destructive origin into its own cycle, and the cracks on the Dao Seed, under the impact of the strange power where destruction and rebirth intertwined, actually had an extremely tiny wisp... start a slow bridging!

This was a desperate situation of death and rebirth! If it weren't for the fact that his foundation was the Chaos Dao of all laws returning to the void, if it were any other cultivator, he would have been completely torn apart by this internal and external destructive power.

Feng Xi struggled to crawl to Lin Lin Xuan's side, gently rubbing against its master's hanging palm with its head, letting out low, crying chirps. It didn't know what happened just now, but it knew that it was its master who protected it.

The rebels outside the quiet room were scared by the strange scene just now and didn't dare to approach, looking at each other, in a dilemma.

And above the Imperial Palace, the Abyss demonic awareness erupted with even more furious will fluctuations!

"Dying struggle! I want to see, how long this broken shell of yours can last!"

It temporarily abandoned the plan to directly erase Lin Lin Xuan, as the residual power of chaos made it somewhat wary. It focused more attention on the Imperial Palace battlefield, demonic Qi surged, that blurry demonic shadow became more solid, and the terrifying pressure shrouded the whole field again!

"Erase these ants first! Then slowly concoct that bug!"

The demonic shadow raised its hand, endless demonic Qi condensed into a giant palm that covered the sky and sun, carrying the power to destroy everything, and slowly pressed down toward Eunuch Wei and the remaining resistance forces, who were already at the end of their tether!

True despair seemed not to have left, but just changed a way and descended again.

However, having experienced that miraculous moment just now, Eunuch Wei's eyes reignited with unprecedented fighting spirit. He straightened his blood-stained body, and toward the remaining loyal warriors behind him, let out a heaven-shaking roar:

"The Emperor's heroic spirit is not far! Daoist Lin is still fighting! We... fight to the death and do not retreat!"

"Fight to the death and do not retreat!" The remaining forces let out a final roar, condensing a weak yet firm light, meeting that covering giant palm.

The survival of the Imperial Capital was tied to this final inch of land.

And in the distant south, on the edge of the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain Range, a dragon-shaped escape light, dusty and tired, was rushing toward that piece of ancient mountain forest that was even more dangerous, regardless of everything.

Brother Brother Huangfu seemed to have sensed something, looked back at the Imperial Capital direction suddenly, his heart aching violently.

"Brother Lin... Eunuch Wei... you must... hold on!" ===== CHAPTER 120 =====
