Chapter 143 - A Thousand Years of Waiting Was In Vain

The continuous attacks made the ball of light become dejected. Anyone who knew about this would probably feel bad.

They had thought that they had finally found hope, but they did not expect to walk into a deeper abyss. The people of the Tai Qing Sect could not help but show sympathy in their eyes. The fate of the Penglai Immortal Beasts was really too rough.

The ball of light’s voice was much weaker. It said, “Please help the rest of my clansmen remove the seal.”

“You really think highly of me.”

After all, Ye Xuan could even deal with the troublesome black Qi, so the seal should not be a problem. He raised his eyebrows and said, “Think about it carefully. If they are unsealed, I’m afraid they will not have much life in them left.”

“I’ve thought it through. Even if they die immediately, it’s better than living in such a chaotic state without even knowing that they are being used by others.”

The ball of light’s voice carried a sense of determination.

Thinking of the terrible experience of the Penglai Immortal Beasts, Ye Xuan didn’t say anything this time and directly agreed. He said, “Then, I’ll give it a try.”

His five fingers formed a seal and his hands formed a hand seal. A huge amount of spiritual power was poured into the altar. The originally calm altar seemed to have been stimulated and began to tremble violently.

Even his entire body began to emit a faint red glow.

The red light continued to extend, covering the entire underground palace. The runes also extended outward, reaching the statues, giving people the feeling that they were alive.

The originally cute and lively statues had become terrifying and strange. Their faces were extremely hideous, as if they were suffering great pain, like evil spirits that had crawled out from hell.

The people of the Tai Qing Sect found that the statues, which had their eyes closed, had opened their eyes at this moment and were staring at them covetously. It was really creepy.

“How did these statues become like this…”

For a moment, the underground palace became extremely gloomy, as if it was the 18 levels of hell. Everywhere was shrouded in an ominous light.

The people of the Tai Qing Sect moved closer to Ye Xuan like little chicks. It was as though they could find a sense of security by doing this.

The cold wind blew in their faces, and there were sounds of ghosts wailing.

Ye Xuan wanted to pour his spiritual power into it to destroy the altar’s fundamental structure. He found that although the altar looked old and shabby, it was actually indestructible. No matter how much spiritual power he used, it was like a stone sinking into the sea.

“How could this be? I can’t even shake their foundations. It seems like I have to think of other ways.”

At this moment, a sudden change occurred.

An ancient scroll floated above Ye Xuan’s head, and the originally strange underground palace suddenly changed. The stars in the sky flickered endlessly, and everyone seemed to have come to the vast and boundless universe.

It was actually the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram!

Ye Xuan was shocked. He didn’t activate the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, but it suddenly lost control and ran out by itself. He didn’t know why.

As the stars flickered, the red light seemed to have encountered some kind of flooding ferocious beast and began to dim.

The power of the stars wrapped around the altar and the statue. The original black lines were wiped away by the power of the stars and gradually dissipated in the air. To be more precise, they seemed to have been swallowed by the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram.

Countless runes surged into it, and even the black Qi dissipated. The power of the stars in the sky also gradually dimmed.

The crowd didn’t know that this was the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, and they all sighed with emotion at its magical features.

“Amazing! The red light is dissipating.”

“I don’t see the black Qi either.”

“Elder Ye’s magic weapon is so powerful. I’ve actually never seen you use it before.”

On the other hand, the ball of light stared at the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram, unable to speak for a long time.

As the power of the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram covered the entire underground palace, Ye Xuan could clearly feel the power of the altar shrinking, and the cold and uncomfortable feeling disappeared.

The statues, which were in pain, gradually returned to normal.

The Hetu and Luoshu Diagram came to the sky above the altar. Countless silver-white lights poured down as if the whole galaxy had gathered here. The altar trembled even more.

“Kacha!”

There was a slight movement, and cracks appeared on it like a spider web. It instantly spread all over his body and completely split open in front of Ye Xuan.

The Hetu and Luoshu Diagram also entered Ye Xuan’s body. He could feel a cold feeling, which was the energy that had not been fully digested.

After doing all this, the crowd still hadn’t reacted. They all thought it was Ye Xuan’s doing, but in fact, even Ye Xuan himself was surprised.

Why would the Hetu and Luoshu Diagram sense it? Moreover, it was as if they were born to restrain this altar. One had to know that he had injected so much spiritual power into it before, but it had no effect.

The stones on the statues began to peel off bit by bit, revealing the true appearance of the Penglai Immortal Beasts. Having been unsealed, it was as if they had just taken a long nap.

They didn’t know that they had slept for a thousand years and that the outside world had been turned upside down.

The Penglai Immortal Beasts opened their eyes and looked at Ye Xuan and the others. One of them said vigilantly, “Who are you? Why have you intruded into our territory?”

Only powerful demonic beasts could speak human language. These Penglai Immortal Beasts had been sealed for a thousand years, and a lot of their power had been absorbed by the altar, so it was clear how powerful they had been before.

For a moment, the people of the Tai Qing Sect were stunned. After all, this was the first time they had seen a demonic beast that could speak the human language.

The ball of light floated in front of them, followed by countless light spots.

A familiar look appeared in the eyes of the Penglai Immortal Beasts. These light balls seemed familiar. “You guys are–”

“Clan Leader!”

It turned out that the ball of light was the leader of the Penglai Immortal Beast clan. No wonder it knew so many secrets. Ye Xuan had long guessed its identity.
