Chapter 122 (2/2)

Hu, she came rushing forward in madness.

Yet Xue Ying floated backwards in retreat. He would occasionally block an attack or two coming his way. Having delayed for two breaths of time, the injuries of that Golden Magic Peacock worsened, causing her combat power to drop sharply. Xue Ying did not use his ‘Water and Fire Flood Dragon Attack’ again. Instead, before the peacock could even stop her injuries from worsening, he fiercely hacked down on her head.

Peng– With fewer feathers to protect it, the head was a vulnerable point in the peacock’s defense. Under the power of the heavy blow, her brain immediately transformed into paste. Fresh blood could even be seen coming from her nose and ears. The peacock immediately fell down on the ground; her wings could be seen drooping down on each side with no other movement.

Death of the Golden Magic Peacock!

Victory on the eighth match!

…

“This!”

At the point of time when Xue Ying displayed his killing technique, the ‘Water and Fire Flood Dragon Attack’ which heavily injured the Golden Magic Peacock, most of the Demigods in the eastern viewing platform were full of shock.

Even the number one assassin under the heavens, the cold old granny Shen Ye, or City Lord Bu who was on another level… everyone was shocked as they saw what Xue Ying did.

“Did you see that spear just now?” City Lord Bu had watched carefully.

“I saw it.” Faction Head Si Kong Yang’s eyes were full of delight.

“It’s actually a move containing the fusion of Profound Mysteries behind Water and Fire.” Mountain Lord He continued, “Not only is it a fusion, it’s also a fusion that’s perfectly utilized! Formidable, so formidable. Such a young age… and he can already fuse the Profound Mysteries behind both Water and Fire and even use them in the battle. I dare say that this youngster will definitely comprehend his ‘True Meaning of Water and Fire’ in the future!”

“He is indeed very formidable.” City Lord Bu had an expression that seemed bitter sweet. She looked at Si Kong Yang, “Such a pity that you, Si Kong Yang, got him.”

“Hahaha…” Si Kong Yang’s laughter was clear and bright.

True Meaning of Water and Fire.

That was an extremely powerful True Meaning. Even though it was not on the level of ‘True Meaning of Void Cleavage’, it could still be ranked amongst the top few! Wanting to comprehend the ‘True Meaning of Water and Fire’, would require one to comprehend both Profound Mysteries behind Water and Fire. The hardest part was fusing both Profound Mysteries together as one!

Regardless of the different Profound Mysteries, the fusion of the Profound Mysteries was actually the hardest part. And the first step taken towards fusing the Profound Mysteries was the most important! Xue Ying could actually take his first step at such a young age. He still had a long lifespan ahead, showing clearly that it was almost a certainty that he would comprehend the ‘True Meaning of Water and Fire’ with such early high level comprehension.

“Who knows, maybe the True Meaning of Water and Fire might not be his final limits. He might even be able to comprehend the legendary True Meaning of Yin Yang!” Mountain Lord He laughed.

“Don’t think so far ahead. It would be great even if he comprehended the True Meaning of Water and Fire.” Si Kong Yang rebutted.

True Meaning of Yin Yang?

That was a legendary True Meaning at a level even higher than the ‘True Meaning of Void Cleavage’. Such a True Meaning… was something that nobody had seen ever since the start of the Xia Clan! As to the reason why they knew of its existence, it was actually passed down from the Deity World, in one of the memoirs, stating the existence of such a powerful heaven-shaking True Meaning.

Profound Mystery of Water and Fire was just like the Profound Mystery of Hard and Soft, and the Profound Mystery of extreme Yang, or the Profound Mystery of extreme Yin… all of them had a chance of growing into becoming the ‘True Meaning of Yin and Yang’. But ultimately, it was merely the existence of a chance. Nobody had ever succeeded within the Xia Clan.

Thus, Si Kong Yang and Mountain Lord He would say that if Xue Ying comprehended the ‘True Meaning of Water and Fire’, they would feel satisfied.

“Oh yes, this Dong Bo Xue Ying had just won the eighth battle. The ninth battle is going to start soon?” City Lord Bu lifted her eyebrows. The corner of her mouth had the vestiges of a smile. Indeed, she was someone worthy of becoming a ‘beauty who would topple the world’. Her smile was so beautiful that it was soul-stirring, “Saying that, Mountain Lord He, Si Kong Yang, I think none of us have ever seen the ninth match before, right?”

Mountain Lord He and Si Kong Yang were dumbfounded.

The Transcendent Battle of Life and Death ninth match?

Indeed, they had not seen it before. After all, winning the eighth match was something extremely difficult. Xue Ying not only had his primordial bloodline, he also comprehended the second level of the Realm of Myriad Existences, and even fused both Profound Mysteries behind Water and Fire, turning them into the ‘Water and Fire Flood Dragon Attack’, before finally taking down the eighth match!

“The previous ninth match occurred about 2000 years ago. Only old granny Ye and the rest have seen that battle before.” Mountain Lord He laughed, “Indeed, we have not seen it before today. Who would have expected that this time, we could actually see it!”

Dong!

A drumbeat sounded.

“Ladies and gentlemen. The ninth match’s opponent is a demon from the Abyss. Due to the lack of preparation, the Infernal Palace would need half an hour to prepare. There will be a break during this period of time! In half an hour, the ninth match will begin! Adding on to that, this is the first time we are having a ninth match in 2300 years. Everyone should thank Dong Bo Xue Ying in allowing us to see a living Abyss Demon!” The voice of that emissary from the Infernal Palace was filled with excitement.
