Chapter 1049: Slaying the Envoy
This cry struck directly at the depths of one's soul, as if it were a sharp blade intending to shatter the soul to pieces.
Chen Yu gave a muffled groan; he forcibly endured the discomfort, grabbed with his right hand, and another sword appeared in his grip. Then, he once again summoned his Dragon Elephant Power and roared as he struck back.
Pfft, pfft... One of the woman's heads bled from its seven orifices, and Chen Yu thrust the Ice Sword forward, severing one of her heads with a 'pfft' sound.
The woman retreated step by step, screaming, with an expression of disbelief appearing on her remaining four heads. Immediately after, she let out a sharp shriek, and three of her heads exploded simultaneously.
A blood-colored barrier formed and covered Chen Yu's head; Chen Yu's six senses were instantly blocked by this blood-colored barrier.
His figure stiffened, and he was immediately plunged into a fog.
"Brother Chen!" Yu Sichen was startled. Locking the six senses is a terrifying thing; it is equivalent to saying your eyes have been suddenly covered.
And this woman risked blowing up three of her own heads just to lock Chen Yu's six senses; in her eyes, Chen Yu was the most potential threat.
Her figure flickered as she floated forward, intending to annihilate Chen Yu.
Yu Sichen gave a light shout, opened both hands, and her Buddhist Hand Seal changed rapidly. A huge Ice Sword appeared; she gripped it with both hands and fiercely attacked the strange woman.
Pfft... The Ice Sword penetrated the woman's chest without any resistance.
She hissed and retreated rapidly, with billowing black smoke rising from her body.
Then, her body gradually became transparent, and immediately after, with a splash, she plunged into the Blood Pool and disappeared.
A crimson mark appeared on Yu Sichen's forehead, and the phantom images of six arms appeared on her body; these phantoms gradually faded into her body along with her consciousness.
"How do you feel?" Chen Yu frowned. After Yu Sichen beheaded this five-headed woman, there seemed to be some changes in her, but Chen Yu could not tell exactly what those changes were.
"It seems I have gained some power, and this power is both righteous and evil," Yu Sichen said thoughtfully. With a movement of her mind, the blood-colored mark on her forehead slowly appeared.
A faint yellow light radiated from her body; this trace of yellow light looked somewhat sacred, solemn, and inviolable.
"This is the realm of Buddha Face Buddha Heart in the Buddhist school," Chen Yu said, somewhat shocked. "I understand now; this thing comes from the Asura Hell and is a spokesperson for a certain elephant-faced, human-bodied deity in the A-San Divine Sect."
"Her true form is called the Dragon Maiden, or the Buddha Maiden, and since you beheaded her, you possess a portion of her power. Since she originally came from the Asura Hell, the aura on her body is also both righteous and evil."
"But the Buddhist nature in you neutralized the evil aura on her, leading to a breakthrough in your realm."
"So that's how it is; it sounds so complicated," Yu Sichen was slightly stunned.
With the Dragon Maiden beheaded, this Blood Array had lost its original effectiveness, and this pool of thick blood dried up after a short while.
Several cracks also appeared on the statues in the room; after the Blood Array was destroyed, these statues also lost their original Divine Power.
Chen Yu and Yu Sichen emerged from the Jingkou, only to discover that the village had been sealed off; a fully armed team driving armored vehicles had surrounded the place.
Seeing Chen Yu and Yu Sichen, the surrounding soldiers became vigilant, and with a rustle, a pile of firearms was pointed at the two.
"Wait, this is Mr. Chen," Liu Zhong shouted, and only then did this team of soldiers relax their vigilance.
"Mr. Chen, the higher-ups have already received the news, so they sealed this place and sent people specialized in handling these matters to deal with the situation here," Liu Zhong said.
"I understand. The matter below has been resolved, but the person I was looking for never appeared. I will leave the aftermath to you," Chen Yu said.
"Mr. Chen, there are a few Daoists who say they want to see you," Liu Zhong said.
"Who are they?" Chen Yu asked.
"I am not sure. They should have been sent by Dragon Breath. You and Miss Yu were the first to make contact with this place, so they want to find you to understand the situation," Liu Zhong said.
"Alright, take me there," Chen Yu nodded.
In a military camp, Chen Yu met these few Daoists.
The leader was a young man; although he wore a Daoist robe, seeing him using a mobile phone and hanging BMW car keys, he should be someone who frequently walks in the secular world.
In the room, there was also a high-ranking general accompanying them. Liu Zhong brought them in, gave a military salute to the high-ranking general, and said, "Chief, Mr. Chen and Miss Yu have arrived."
"Good, you may go down and rest," the general nodded, then smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, I am Chang Shoucheng, the garrison commander nearby. These few are experts from the Yunlu Residence on East Peak Island. I heard that you and Miss Yu were the first to arrive here, so they want to find you to understand the situation."
"Let me speak," Chen Yu glanced at the leading young Daoist. He saw that this Daoist had an arrogant expression and was already at the Original Qi Late Stage realm.
Chen Yu had heard of the Yunlu Residence on East Peak Island; it was an extremely powerful sect of Dharma Cultivators, and along with the North Territory Xin Tian Mountain Moral Sect, the West Territory Buddhist Suspended City Sky-Engine Sect, and the South School Cang Yue Sect, they were the four major Dharma Cultivation sects.
These Dharma Cultivation sects had existed for a long time; throughout the generations, they had maintained a certain connection with those in power, but they did not participate in the changes of dynastic power, only being responsible for handling some special matters.
Their status was equivalent to Dragon Breath, and every year, the sects would send outstanding disciples to be on duty at Dragon Breath, firstly to gain experience, and secondly to handle major affairs of the world.
As for the Yunlu Residence on East Peak Island, it was the strongest in the East Sea. East Peak Island stood in the East Sea, and ordinary people had no idea where it was.
"You are Chen Yu?" The young Dharma Cultivator walked to Chen Yu's side and looked Chen Yu up and down: "I have heard of you. Dragon Breath thinks highly of you recently. Not bad, you have a future."
This man was not very old, but his old-fashioned manner made people very uncomfortable. Moreover, when he turned around and looked at Yu Sichen, his eyes clearly flashed with amazement.
"Who is this?" The man looked at Yu Sichen; he was almost unable to move his gaze away from Yu Sichen.
Honestly, as the head disciple of the Yunlu Residence, a Dharma Cultivation sect in the present world, he had seen no shortage of beauties.
The female disciples in the sect also curried favor with him because of his status, and even when practicing in the secular world, he had seen many beauties in Dragon Breath.
But none were as ethereal as Yu Sichen. The only slight flaw was that there was a faint trace of dark power on Yu Sichen, but these were not problems.
The Yunlu Residence had always believed in teaching without discrimination; there were also disciples in the sect who practiced demonic arts, or were even transformed Spirit Monsters. As long as Yu Sichen was stunning, that was enough.
"Yu Sichen," Yu Sichen responded indifferently.
