389 Back-up Plan (2/2)
”You want to enter the Resonance level before me?” Paganini raised his dark eyes. ”Where did you get that confidence?!”
The melody instantly rose and screamed from the Garment. Behind him, the abyss's shadow rose as well while its coordinate in the aether world sank. The huge attractive pull created a vortex in the aether sea.
Pounding streams covered hundreds of thousands of miles in an instant. The equilibrium of the aether sea's music theory was shattered, transforming into furious waves.
Paganini had used one action to adjust the abyss's territory, forcefully stirring the aether sea into turbidity. Gales of wind blew, blocking any paths.
Ye Qingxuan's consciousness was instantly swept by the wild tides and was almost lost in the aether sea. Thankfully, the Sword's light pulled him back into Heaven on Earth. In the cracked territory, Ye Qingxuan's pallor was pale and the halo above his head was dim.
”Didn't know you could do this. So impressive!” Wiping away the blood from his mouth and nose, he asked quietly, ”But even for you, it must be tiring to influence the aether sea like this, right?”
There was no fear or panic in his voice. It was as if he had predicted this long ago and everything was in control. He did not look menacing with blood flowing from his nose and mouth. Instead, he smiled brightly.
Paganini frowned. ”What are you thinking of now?”
”At any time,” Ye Qingxuan held up two fingers, ”you must have a back-up plan, even if you prepared everything and every segment seems flawless. This is something I learned recently from a certain b*stard.” With that, he slowly raised the Sword. Spinning it around, the blade was reversed and aimed at his heart. As Paganini looked on in confusion, he brought the sword down!
Ye Qingxuan screamed in immense pain. Inside the Heaven on Earth, the Sword dug into his heart and came out from behind his back. He had stabbed through his sub-originator! The two were finally one!
Like melting gold, bubbling gold color flowed in all directions from the beating sub-originator, invading Ye Qingxuan's flesh. In a moment, Ye Qingxuan's body was about to evaporate under the immense strength.
Paganini gaped. The youth…stabbed himself? What was he trying to do?
Seeing his shock, Ye Qingxuan grinned through the pain. He was not crazy, of course. He stabbed himself because of the relationship between the sub-originator and the Sword. For the time being, before the sub-originator broke down, he would not be destroyed by this power. He just wanted to get rid of something in his body that did not belong to him. It was something in his brain that had accompanied him all these years… The seal!
In an instant, the blade melted into his blood. The radiant light coursed with his blood through his body until, in Ye Qingxuan's mind, a vague sword appeared and came down on him.
Crack. It was the sound of shackles shattering, stone crashing, and an instrument playing. Deep inside Ye Qingxuan, the layers of hints from Ye Lanzhou that restricted him were cut apart by this aggressive sword!
He had broken through the seal! Now, the Deva's blood that had been sealed since birth and the sleeping talent was finally awakened!
