Cold sweat poured down Senior Martial Brother Qu’s forehead, his voice becoming hoarse: “No wonder these treasures have remained here and no one dared to take them. Junior Martial Sister Qing, these items already possess spirits. If it is not their owner who takes them, they will instead turn around and harm them!”
Senior Martial Sister Qing shuddered and nodded repeatedly.
Qin Mu said coldly: “These things have always been here, no one ever dared to take them, even the wild beasts don’t dare. There is definitely danger behind them. You already knew there was danger, yet you still ordered your junior martial brother to risk his life. Your heart is truly sinister; you are the real devil!”
“This little devil child is confusing people’s hearts again!”
Senior Martial Brother Qu’s face was filled with deep sorrow. He shook his head and said: “How could you know how deep the bond of brotherhood is between us? A little devil child is still just a little devil child. You measure my heart with your devil heart, of course you think my heart is a devil’s heart. I won’t bother with you right now; wait until daybreak, I will send you to the afterlife.”
Qin Mu frowned. This Senior Martial Brother Qu was extremely cunning and ruthless, even having the heart to use his own junior martial brother. He definitely would not let Qin Mu leave alive.
However, unfortunately, this person’s strength was very formidable. Qin Mu was absolutely no match for him. Moreover, beside him was Senior Martial Sister Qing, who was also very formidable!
Right at this moment, the earth suddenly shook, causing the entire ruin to tremble violently. Low roars from the wild beasts could be heard. The wild beasts in the ruins trembled in fear, continuously retreating backward, staring tensely at the ruins’ gate with expressions of extreme terror.
“What are these wild beasts afraid of?”
Just as Qin Mu thought of this, an incredibly pitch-black darkness suddenly surged in through that giant gate like a rolling wave!
Qin Mu’s heart was greatly shocked. He saw that the giant gate seemed to have an invisible layer of shield holding back the darkness, while the darkness fiercely smashed against the shield, trying to break through its defense!
The gate’s shield bent and deformed due to the impact of the darkness, but it did not shatter. The darkness also changed its shape to adapt to the bent shield. Sometimes it took the shape of sharp claws, sometimes like straight smoke blown by the wind, sometimes like countless sharp thorns. Its form continuously changed.
Suddenly, the darkness stopped attacking, and the invisible shield at the gate also calmed down. A moment later, the shield slowly bulged inward, continuously pushed towards the inside.
The darkness stretched the gate’s shield until it formed a facial expression, a massive face. Its upper forehead touched the top of the canyon, while its chin pressed against the bottom of the canyon.
All the wild beasts in the ruins crawled flat against the ground, not daring to move an inch, let alone raise their heads to look at that face.
That face had three pitch-black eyeballs. Seeing those three eyeballs, Qin Mu’s entire body felt cold, as if his soul was going to be sucked away by the darkness!
The face suddenly opened its mouth. Its voice sounded deep and buzzing, speaking a language that no one understood.
“Qi Ke Duo, Sa Mo Ye, Ban Ruo Ban Ruo Sa Mo Ye, Qi Ke Duo Ban Ruo Sa Mo Ye…”
That buzzing voice seemed like a combination of countless voices, full of mystical power. The voice caused the ground in the ruins to tremble continuously, palace walls to peel off, stone pillars to collapse, and cracks to grow larger.
Even that massive gate trembled and dropped stone debris, a sign that the gate wouldn’t hold much longer.
Right at this moment, a bright light suddenly radiated from the plaza. The luminous pearl in the hands of the leader skeleton emitted an increasingly bright light.
Qin Mu immediately turned his head and saw the bright pearl flying upward. Its bright light resembled the first rays of dawn, its varied colors looking somewhat thick and dense.
The dense dawn light enveloped the more than two hundred skeletons in the plaza. The skeletons suddenly seemed to come back to life under the glow of the light.
Qin Mu was completely stunned. He saw that the skeletons within the light were no longer bare bones, but had become living young women!
Young women with rosy cheeks and red lips, wearing fiery red clothes!
The young women sat in the plaza. Their leader was also a woman, raising one hand to support the continuously rising pearl.
From the mouths of the girls came a foreign language that was also difficult to understand.
“Yi Po Xiu Po Sa Nan Jun He Xi, Guan Ming Duan Jing Wu Si Jiang You…”
The voice from within the darkness gradually became louder and grander, shaking the canyon. The darkness infiltrated the ruins from all directions, while the girls’ voices grew clearer and more resonant. The light radiating from the bright pearl burst forth wave after wave, illuminating the darkness until it slowly dissipated like smoke!
These two voices were like the voices of gods and devils constantly fighting, sometimes suppressing each other, sometimes being suppressed, while darkness and light continuously clashed and collided!
This was a battle, a battle beyond common sense, shaking the depths of Qin Mu’s heart. Despite living in the Great Ruins, this was the first time he had witnessed such a bizarre event.
“This voice…”
Qin Mu was stunned. The girls’ voices were somewhat similar to the divine voice he heard when striking the Lingtai Wall; they shared the same rhythm. He vaguely felt that the two voices, although using different words, seemed to have a similar meaning.
When he tried to break through the Lingtai Wall with his vital energy, he vaguely heard a voice that seemed to come from beyond the ninth heaven, holy and majestic. Every time this voice echoed, his vital energy would retreat on its own, unable to penetrate the Lingtai Wall.
The two voices were still attacking each other fiercely, advancing and retreating, winning and losing, yet neither could completely subdue the other.
The demonic-sounding voice from within the darkness was immensely powerful and terrifying, while the divine-sounding voice of the girls sounded clear and melodious, extremely resilient and holy, always able to appear unexpectedly to break the opposing demonic voice when the demonic voice gained the upper hand.
And the demonic voice could always erupt suddenly when its power waned to its lowest point, like an overturned sea of stars, like an overflowing flood, incredibly grand and overwhelming.
These two voices each had their own uniqueness and greatness.
Qin Mu listened with rapt attention. Suddenly he gasped, and unconsciously became overjoyed: “The demonic voice and the divine voice are attacking each other; this divine voice is similar to the divine voice that blocks me from breaking the wall. In that case, can I use the demonic voice to break the divine voice blocking me?”
He grew even more excited; this was truly a great idea!
As long as he learned this demonic voice, he could chant it when breaking the wall, suppress the divine voice from beyond the ninth heaven, and allow his vital energy to pierce through the Lingtai Wall!
As long as he succeeded in breaking the wall, with his “Tyrant Body” and “Tyrant Body Three Elixir Art”, he would no longer need to fear Senior Martial Brother Qu and Senior Martial Sister Qing!
Thinking of this, he was suddenly stunned, as if drenched by a bucket of ice water.
The voice from beyond the ninth heaven was a divine voice. If he used a demonic voice to break the divine voice, wouldn’t that mean he was a devil sealed by the gods?
Could it be that Senior Martial Brother Qu and Senior Martial Sister Qing’s words were true, that he really was a little devil child?
“No, no!”
Qin Mu shook his head. If he was a devil, wouldn’t that mean all other possessors of the “Tyrant Body” were also devils?
Then why was it called the “Tyrant Body”? Wouldn’t it be better to call it the Devil Body?
“To hell with Devil Body or Tyrant Body, just break the wall first!”
He took immediate action, memorizing and chanting the tone, intonation, meaning, syllables, and timbre of the darkness’s demonic voice over and over in his heart, recording the pitch, length, volume, and tempo of the demonic voice in his memory.
Only when he was certain there were no mistakes did Qin Mu circulate the “Tyrant Body Three Elixir Art”. He summoned his vital energy, and while chanting the demonic voice in his heart, he mobilized his vital energy to strike the Lingtai Wall between his eyebrows!
