Chapter 431 - The Yin Qi and Yang Qi (1/2)
Chapter 431 The Yin Qi and Yang QiThe valley rocked endlessly. The surging vital force between heaven and earth went to the valley with great vigor and gathered there. At this moment, Xiao Chen was emitting waves of white radiance like a god descending to the world. Everyone in the valley was struck dumb with amazement. Red Sleeve’s expression continually changed, but her eyes still looked quite cold. “How, how is it possible that you…”
In mid-air, the Sword of the Vermillion Bird also started to vibrate, whistling continuously. Xiao Chen’s eyes were as bright as lightning. He stretched out and caught the Sword of the Vermillion Bird that flew toward him. By moving his feet a little, he instantly arrived before Red Sleeve. “Whoosh!” The whole body of the Sword of the Vermillion Bird directly passed through her chest, bringing out a long string of spurting blood.
This sword strike was so fast that everyone could not see it at all. Since this sword strike had gathered the Yang Qi between heaven and earth, it caused great damage to Red Sleeve.
Red Sleeve covered the bloody hole in her chest and slowly turned around. She looked at Xiao Chen ruthlessly and said, “Why, why do you have both the supreme Yin Qi and the supreme Yang Qi in your body? Who exactly are you? Did someone use the Samsara Life-reversing Technique to resurrect you? Has your very existence ever transcended beyond the circles of influence and authority of the Three Domains and Samsara? Why…” When she spoke these last words, her eyes were full of unwillingness and resentment.
In the valley, the wild wind kept on whistling. Since the sound of the wind drowned their words, others could not hear what they were talking about at the moment.
“Ugh!” Xiao Chen bellowed and violently stabbed her again with his sword. His sword whizzed through Red Sleeve’s hands. “Buzzing!” After a huge bang, she managed to grip the sword. Red Sleeve glared at him mercilessly and said, “I see… In your body, the Yin Qi also alternates with the Yang Qi. It is just like the law between heaven and earth: at a quarter to midnight, the Yin Qi turns into the Yang Qi; at a quarter to noon, the Yang Qi turns into the Yin Qi. Whenever you use up all your Yang Qi, the supreme Yin Qi will bring you back from death and begin to gather the Yang Qi again in next to no time! You share the same operating principle as the self-perpetuating heaven and earth! The one who used the Samsara Life-reversing Technique to resurrect you must have made great efforts!”
In her last words, Red Sleeve’s eyes became more malicious. “That’s why you look just like the ordinary people. You are different from me, a zombie who completely relies on Rancorous Qi and Yin Qi…” Speaking of this, she suddenly switched the conversation to some other subject. “But how long do you think your supreme Yin Qi and Yang Qi can support you? Once you exhaust them, you will not be able to enter the Samsara and will be 100 times more painful than me!”
“But for me, killing you is enough!” Xiao Chen growled and sent his sword 3cm forward. His sword streaked across Red Sleeve’s palm, and her palm instantly became bloody.
“You cannot kill me… Three quarters later, when the Yang Qi turns into the Yin Qi, my Yin Qi will become ten times more! At that time, no one can kill me…”
Xiao Chen’s breathing instantly became heavier. He thought to himself, “Most people think that the Yang Qi will become the heaviest at noon. However, they don’t know that since the Yang Qi begins to turn into the Yin Qi at this moment, the Yin Qi becomes much heavier. Thus, the Yin Qi in the afternoon is actually the heaviest, too. I’m afraid Red Sleeve will be invincible at that time.”
When Xiao Chen thought about this, he breathed slow and asked in a deep voice, “Really… But just as what you said just now, the Yin Qi alternates with the Yang Qi in my body. After a quarter to noon, all the Yang Qi in my body will become the Yin Qi. At that time, you will know whose Yin Qi is heavier, yours, or mine!”
After Red Sleeve heard this, her expression changed again and again. With resentment, she said, “Even if you have exhausted both the supreme Yin Qi and the supreme Yang Qi in your body, the best you can do is to perish with me. But why must you stop me…”
“I have told you that you can catch anyone except Muxue. You must return her to me. Why must it be her…” Xiao Chen’s eyes were full of fierceness, too.
“Why must it be her?” Red Sleeve smiled ghastly and suddenly said in a somber voice, “Then why such a thing must happen to me three thousand years ago? Was it because I was born on July 7th with a Mystic Yin Body…”
Xiao Chen’s face instantly changed. “What did you say?!”
At this moment, he seemed to have fully understood the reason at last. It was because of the Samsara Life-reversing Technique! This technique could only be used between people who had the same date of birth and Destiny!
All of a sudden, he felt a chill at his back. Finally, he knew why Red Sleeve was determined to find someone who had a Mystic Yin Body and was born on July 7th. She was not trying to evolve, nor pursue some supreme power, nor dominate the Three Realms! The only thing that she wanted to do was to use the Samsara Life-reversing Technique to resurrect herself because she could not enter the Samsara at all…
But why could she not enter the Samsara? The person who was resurrected would not be able to enter the Samsara and would be left out of the Six Paths of Samsara. It looked like that she was also an arrested victim who was born on July 7th. That was to say, the one who caught her must have also been born on July 7th. What the hell was going on? Was it because… Suddenly, a thought ran through Xiao Chen’s head, passing by quickly.
“So, do you know it now…” Gradually, Red Sleeve’s voice became sadder. “Someone highly cultivated helped you to resurrect. That is why you can stay alive and don’t need to enter the Samsara immediately. But what about me? I was only an ordinary woman before I died. Who would apply the Samsara Life-reversing Technique to me? So I have to fight hard to find someone who has the same Destiny as me. I have been living in this cold place for 3,000 years! Do you know how I spent these 3,000 years…”
In the end, she was all in tears. Xiao Chen suddenly raised his head and said fiercely, “So that is why you chose to sacrifice Muxue. You want to take her life as yours and reincarnate. But she will never enter the Samsara since then, am I right?”
“But I was also resurrected by others before. Only because I held one breath of Rancorous Qi, I was brought back from death and became such an immortal monster…” Red Sleeve smiled wanly and said in a solemn voice. At last, the expression in her eyes turned malicious again. “I have held the Malicious Grudge for three thousand years and have been living in hatred for 3,000 years. You cannot stop me…”
Everyone in the distance could not hear what they were saying at the moment. Suddenly, Xiao Chen bellowed in a low voice, “No!” After that, he hit Red Sleeve hard with his fist.
With a loud bang, Red Sleeve was knocked more than 30 meters away. Xiao Chen went on to attack her and shouted, “But Muxue is innocent. Where is she?”
