Chapter 2607: I’ll Give You a Chance
Translator: Legge
The ball of light released by the Grand Pure Jade Manual actually caused the palm of the Martial Dao Prime Body to feel a sharp pain.
The Martial Dao Prime Body frowned slightly in surprise.
The True Martial Dao Body had already been cultivated to the perfected realm and the power that could cause him pain definitely did not come from Qin Ce.
The Martial Dao Prime Body pondered for a moment and quickly understood.
As part of a Taboo Mystic Classic, the Grand Pure Jade Manual was extremely precious.
Although Qin Ce had already obtained one of the Three Pure Ones Jade Manual, the Emperor backing him still left a seal on the ancient book to prevent it from being taken away by outsiders.
The Martial Dao Prime Body was calm.
It was good if he could get his hands on the Grand Pure Jade Manual, but it did not matter if he could not. His goal this time round was not the Grand Pure Jade Manual to begin with.
With the help of the seal left behind by his father, Qin Ce protected his Essence Spirit and carried the Grand Pure Jade Manual and Dao Fruit back to the peak of the Builder Tree. He was scared out of his wits!
If not for the seal left behind by his father, he would have died!
Even so, he suffered immense losses. His body was destroyed by the Martial Dao Prime Body and his flesh turned into ashes—he could not even use Blood Rebirth.
The crowd was in an uproar!
Nobody expected the Martial Dao Prime Body to be so domineering that he would dare to attack a prince in front of everyone and even use a killing move!
Less than that, no one expected that Qin Ce would be forced to abandon his physical body and flee in panic after being unable to defend against a single punch from the Martial Dao Prime Body!
Qin Ce was not only the son of an Emperor, he was Rank 2 of the Perfected Immortal Ranking.
If even he could not defend against a single punch from Desolate Martial, who else could be a match for him?
Immortal King Long Night was enraged and suddenly stood up, glaring at the Martial Dao Prime Body with a dark expression.
The scene earlier on was way too sudden.
It was too late for him to step in and save Qin Ce!
At that moment, Qin Ce returned.
Now, Immortal King Long Night no longer had sufficient reason to attack. After all, that was a fight between Perfected Immortals.
As an Immortal King, he cared about his dignity and could not attack Desolate Martial forcefully because of this.
Furthermore, he was not certain of the situation on Desolate Martial’s side right now and did not know if Emperor Bo Xun was nearby. As such, he did not dare to act rashly.
The other Immortal Kings had the same thoughts.
The fact that Desolate Martial dared to bring these people over and was so domineering and fearless meant that there was a high chance Emperor Bo Xun was nearby!
Beneath the Builder Tree.
Jun Yu, Shi Wunian and the other immortals and monks had grim expressions and were extremely tense. They glared at the Martial Dao Prime Body fixedly, afraid that he would attack again.
The punch from the Martial Dao Prime Body earlier on shocked everyone as well!
If they were in Qin Ce’s position, it would be difficult for them to escape death.
While the immortals and monks were stunned by the aura of the Martial Dao Prime Body and fell into silence, as the Supreme Perfected Immortal, Jun Yu stood out decisively!
Enduring the immense pressure surging over from Desolate Martial, Jun Yu asked in a deep voice, “Desolate Martial of the Fiend Domain, may I know why you’re here?”
The Martial Dao Prime Body merely punched Qin Ce casually and did not continue attacking.
“I heard that your two domains are holding the Nine Firmament Meet, so I came to take a look.”
The voice of the Martial Dao Prime Body sounded a little deep through the silver mask. “At the same time, I’ve got some grudges to settle!”
“What grudges?”
Jun Yu asked.
“For the sake of an ancient zither, the Zither Immortal hunted down my subordinates, the Zither and Flute Fiends, for many years. She even chased them all the way to the Fiend Domain.”
The gaze of the Martial Dao Prime Body shifted and landed on Zither Immortal
Meng Yao. “Do you think that Tianhuang Sect is weak?”
Meng Yao knew that she could not hide now that she was targeted by the Martial Dao Prime Body, so she grit her teeth and stood out, asking, “Desolate Martial, what do you want?”
“I’ll give you a chance.”
The Martial Dao Prime Body said indifferently, “Since you’re known as the
Zither Immortal, compete in zither skills with my subordinate, the Zither Fiend. If you win, I’ll spare your life.”
“Hmph!”
Meng Yao glanced at Qiu Siluo and sneered, “What Zither Fiend? She’s self-proclaimed, right? What rights does she have to compete with me in the zither?”
“I forgot to mention something.”
The Martial Dao Prime Body did not explain and continued, “If you refuse to compete, I’ll beat you to death!”
“You!”
Meng Yao was shocked and furious, rendering her speechless.
From Desolate Martial’s words, it was as though killing her was as simple as crushing an ant.
As one of the four great fairies, she had always been admired by countless cultivators like a moon surrounded by stars.
Everyone was always respectful at the sight of her, afraid that they would be rude.
Now, not only did Desolate Martial of the Fiend Domain treat her bluntly, he did not care for her beauty at all and said that he wanted to beat her to death!
The most frightening thing was that this person did not have any reservations and was domineering.
Meng Yao had no doubt that if she said no, Desolate Martial would attack without hesitation and kill her here!
Jun Yu and the others frowned in confusion.
The Immortal Kings on the peak of the Builder Tree had strange expressions as well.
Desolate Martial of the Fiend Domain was here to make Meng Yao compete with her zither skills?
Meng Yao was known as the Zither Immortal and was naturally outstanding in the Zither Dao.
The other party wanted to compete with Meng Yao in the Zither Dao?
“Fufu.
Sword Immortal Yue Hua chuckled and shook his head gently. “How ridiculous. A Grade 5 Heaven Immortal wants to challenge Zither Immortal Meng Yao who is a Perfected Immortal.’
Qiu Siluo’s cultivation realm was only at the Grade 5 Heaven Immortal realm—the difference between her and Meng Yao was immense. In everyone’s eyes, the two of them were on completely different levels.
“That’s not fair, right?”
MO Qing secretly sent a voice transmission to Yun Zhu. Subconsciously, she was already on the side of the Martial Dao Prime Body and said worriedly, “The difference in their cultivation realms is so great. How can the Zither Fiend win?”
Yun Zhu said deeply, “If it’s just a comparison of zither skills, it doesn’t have much to do with one’s cultivation realm.”
“Alright!”
After a moment of silence, Meng Yao agreed before sneering, “Since you guys are the ones asking to be humiliated, don’t blame me!”
Meng Yao sat on the ground and placed the ancient zither horizontally across her knees. She looked at Qiu Siluo who was not far away and said, “Come, let me see how strong you are!”
The moment she said that, Meng Yao’s fingertips suddenly plucked the strings of the zither!
Clang!
A single zither sound was enough to release a chilling killing intent!
Instantly, the murderous aura on the battlefield spread and the surrounding temperature dipped.
Meng Yao used her left hand to create the notes by pushing, pinching, kneading, humming, knocking and calling..
With her right hand, she strummed the strings of the zither through varied and complicated techniques such as plucking, propping, swiping, lifting, hooking and brushing…
Clang! Clang!
The sound of the zither echoed continuously, turning more hurried.
The immortals and monks beneath the Builder Tree seemed to be in a battlefield, surrounded by a massive army. They were ambushed on all sides with killing intents hidden!
The zither song played by Meng Yao contained a strong killing intent.
If the cultivators closed their eyes, they could sense that a massive army was charging over from Meng Yao’s ancient zither with a deafening might!
The cultivators were immersed in it and felt as though they were about to be trampled by the invisible army and sliced into pieces by countless sabers and swords!
If the impact was already this strong for bystanders, it was even worse for Qiu Siluo who was targeted by Meng Yao directly!
Meng Yao’s zither sound could be elegant and pleasant.. Of course, it could also kill!
