YM778.TV Chapter 279: Profound Yellow Bell
Chen Chao could not help but feel excited at this moment.
In the brief rush, he took a breath.
The water droplet was a long-prepared killing move, and his depleted qi was deliberately displayed for the middle-aged daoist. Combined with some of what he said earlier, everything was to relax the middle-aged daoist\'s mind, leading to this moment.
All the qi in Chen Chao\'s body surged out, and the boundless saber qi instantly locked onto the middle-aged daoist. The broken saber shone brightly, dazzlingly brilliant!
A slash was finally unleashed!
Suddenly, a rainbow appeared from the terrifying wound of the middle-aged daoist, and a small bell with magnificent radiance suddenly appeared in front of Chen Chao, blocking his strike.
"Buzz!"
The saber struck, and the webbing between Chen Chao\'s thumb and index finger ripped apart again for the countless time.
Blood splattered!
A bell sound containing the sound of the Great Dao suddenly rang out, startling the entire cliffside.
A profound aura spread out, incomparably terrifyingly. When it spread out to the surroundings, it directly split open a nearby mountain peak, and the entire mountain peak collapsed with rocks constantly rolling down!
Chen Chao was situated right in front of this terrifying sound of Great Dao and a stream of blood spurted out of his mouth.
He originally thought that the middle-aged daoist had used all his means. At this moment, it should have been a certain-kill situation. But no one expected that the middle-aged daoist still had such a means!
The black ox that had been lying on the ground looked at the colorful and ancient small bell with an ugly expression, thinking to itself that human cultivators were just like this, with so many life-saving means, layer upon layer, one after another!
Chen Chao was repelled by the terrifying radiance on the ancient small bell. The middle-aged daoist, whose vitality had been mostly sheared away, looked at Chen Chao with a pale complexion. Without any further hesitation, he instantly retreated thousands of feet away with that dazzling small bell!
The sea of clouds was directly scattered by the middle-aged daoist.
The middle-aged daoist\'s figure was extremely fast. With the brilliant and ancient small bell, when he went far away, he left behind only a dazzling radiance.
Putting aside that Chen Chao was currently only at the Bitter Sea Realm, even if he was a Nepenthe martial artist, he would probably find it difficult to catch up.
After standing up straight, Chen Chao wanted to move forward. But with just a slight movement, all his internal organs were in excruciating pain.
Chen Chao took a sharp breath.
His injuries were a result of the collision with the ancient small bell.
Chen Chao narrowed his eyes, watching the gradually dissipating brilliant radiance in front of him, wondering about the origin of that small bell.
Actually, if it were someone else, even a cultivator from a third-rate sect, upon seeing that dazzling small bell, they would probably have endless imagination.
As the Dao leader of Daoism, the Infatuation Daoist Temple was one of the largest sects in Daoism, it naturally had no shortage of daoist spells and magic artifacts. However, compared to this small bell, those ordinary magic artifacts paled in comparison.
This bell was named Profound Yellow, it was forged by the first temple master of the Infatuation Daoist Temple back in the day. Originally intended to be passed down as the ultimate treasure of the temple, after generations of refinement and forging by the Infatuation Daoist Temple\'s daoists, the bell had become exceedingly terrifying. Subsequent temple masters of the Infatuation Daoist Temple wielded this bell as they traversed the world, slaying countless prominent figures of the heretic path and great demons that had caused havoc in the world. At that time, rumors about how the Infatuation Daoist Temple possessed a Profound Yellow Bell that could suppress all evil spirits in the world were already known to all.
However, three hundred years ago, a prominent figure of the heretic path slaughtered numerous cultivators from two sects, causing panic among the foreign cultivators. They pleaded with the temple master of the Infatuation Daoist Temple to take action and slay that heretic path titan. After some consideration, that temple master took the Profound Yellow Bell down the mountain. It did not take long for him to encounter that heretic figure in a secluded mountain. Although that heretic prominent figure cultivated a wicked technique, his cultivation level was already high, stepping into the end of Nepenthe. At that time, few powerhouses in the world could match him. The temple master of the Infatuation Daoist Temple, wielding the Xuanhuang bell, battled the heretic leader for three days and three nights, ultimately killing him. However, the Profound Yellow Bell also suffered a crack before the heretic leader\'s death.
Although the Infatuation Daoist Temple spent another hundred years repairing it, its power could no longer match its prime.
Therefore, the bell was no longer the Infatuation Daoist Temple\'s ultimate treasure but was entrusted to the succeeding chief enforcers.
As the current Chief Enforcer of the Infatuation Daoist Temple, the middle-aged daoist naturally carried this item. However, he had ambitious plans. After losing the position of temple master back then, he had been nurturing this object in his dantian, wanting to fully restore it. Normally, he could not bear to bring it out, and he had not intended to use this Profound Yellow Bell during his earlier confrontation with Chen Chao.
However, the overwhelming killing intent of the final water droplet left him powerless to resist. If he still did not bring out this item, he would likely perish here.
Indeed, when Chen Chao\'s final strike fell, although it only had the power of the Bitter Sea Realm, his qi flowed for miles, leaving no opportunity for resistance. Only in that brief moment did he summon the Profound Yellow Bell.
The final result was as he had expected. The Profound Yellow Bell emerged from his body, blocking that fatal strike.
It was his last resort, but he had no choice but to use it now, it was truly humiliating.
The black ox remained silent for a long time before belatedly shouting, "Daoist Master, take me with you!"
After yelling this, the black ox turned to look at Chen Chao, gave a wry smile, and galloped toward the mountain pass gate, not giving Chen Chao any time to react.
Chen Chao watched its back view, but he had no strength to pursue. He felt exhausted, unable to stand anymore. His entire body was powerless as he tilted his head back and rolled down the cliff.
Fortunately, a white mist swiftly rose, enveloping Chen Chao and gently supporting him down the cliff.
The young girl in the snowy white robe had a somewhat pale complexion, with a trace of blood at the corner of her lips.
That water droplet was her endless killing intent, enough to make the middle-aged daoist feel fear. However, for some reason, it was difficult for her to unleash this killing intent, let alone completely detain the middle-aged Daoist.
Thinking of this, a trace of self-derision flashed across the girl\'s eyes.
Watching the young man who was gradually falling, she said softly, "Could you be that flower?"
……
……
A dazzling light tore through the sky, and the Profound Yellow Bell grew larger, just enough for one person to sit cross-legged.
The current state of the middle-aged daoist was extremely miserable, with his daoist robe severely damaged and a terrifying wound at the front of his body. Although the wound was currently slowly healing, the flesh and blood slowly merging and wriggling, just by looking at the scene, one could tell what he had suffered earlier.
The middle-aged daoist\'s face was pale. He reluctantly changed into another daoist robe, but blood still oozed from his body, quickly soaking the robe.
He remained expressionless. At this point, he was already far from the Sublime Bright Mountain. The Profound Yellow Bell\'s speed was extremely fast, making it impossible for Chen Chao to catch up. Hence, the middle-aged daoist became somewhat calm.
But at that moment, a sound suddenly rang out.
"Chief Enforcer."
A calm voice slowly sounded out, followed by a tall middle-aged man appearing on this sea of clouds in the sky.
The middle-aged daoist looked up and soon furrowed his brows slightly, saying softly, "So, it\'s the Lord Warden Commander. Lord Warden Commander isn\'t waiting in the Divine Capital, but actually still in the South."
The person who arrived was the Lord Warden Commander of the Great Liang Dynasty. In the previous battle on the Sublime Bright Mountain, Daoist Master Ironcloud had died under his fist.
However, he had returned to the Divine Capital afterward. At present, no one expected that he not only did not stay in the Divine Capital but instead returned to the South.
Arriving near the Sublime Bright Mountain.
Lord Warden Commander said indifferently, "You foreign cultivators naturally dislike following rules. This Warden knows this even if I don\'t come. However, even this Warden didn\'t expect that you, the Chief Enforcer of the Infatuation Daoist Temple, would come in person. How come? Didn\'t tell anyone?"
The middle-aged daoist listened to these slightly provocative words in silence. Except, his demeanor was still indifferent.
Lord Warden Commander continued to smile and said, "Looking at Chief Enforcer, you had a tough battle with someone? Are you in poor condition? Is this item the Profound Yellow Bell? It\'s this Warden\'s first time seeing it."
"I wonder who could have inflicted such a serious injury on you, Chief Enforcer. Truly admirable!"
While the Lord Warden Commander was speaking, blood was still dripping continuously from the middle-aged daoist\'s body.
The middle-aged daoist remained silent.
Lord Warden Commander suddenly narrowed his eyes and asked softly, "Chief Enforcer, you usually sit high up in the clouds, looking down on the human world. I\'m afraid you also look down on uncouth martial artists like this Warden. Since we met today, I wonder if you can do me the favor of sparring with me?"
Sparring
This was an amusing remark.
The middle-aged daoist suddenly looked up at this middle-aged martial artist. Although he might not be the absolute authority in the Great Liang Dynasty, he was definitely a figure who could make the entire Divine Capital quake with a stomp of his foot. He asked, "Have you thought about the consequences if you were to kill me?"
Lord Warden Commander looked at him, still appearing totally unconcerned, and smiled, "I\'ve thought about it, but I\'m still willing to give it a try."
As he said this, an inexplicable killing intent emerged.
The middle-aged daoist\'s expression remained composed, but his heart was in turmoil.
He was severely injured at the moment, even if he still had the Profound Yellow Bell by his side. At this moment, forget that he had the Profound Yellow Bell, even if the current Temple Master wielded the Infatuation Daoist Temple\'s secret treasure, it would be of no use either.
The man in front of him was no ordinary Nepenthe martial artist either.
Of the thousands of martial artists in the Great Liang Dynasty, this person was ranked firmly in the top three!
