Chapter 108: Sacred Woman of the Celestial Rotating Jade
This is a woman with bright eyes and white teeth, like a lotus flower breaking the surface, lucid, elegant and exceptional. She was standing at the edge of the cliff, if she took half a step forward she would fall into the endless abyss. Her white dress was floating about in the wind like as if she was Chang’e who was riding the wind, free from worldly affairs.
Ye Fan wanted to find blemishes on her body but was unable to, this woman was simply so beautiful that it seemed surreal, giving one a feeling as though they were in a dream, like as if the heavens and earth have intelligence, removing the vulgar air of this mortal being, with icy flesh and bones made of jade, simply close to perfection.
Amongst the girls he had seen, based on looks alone only one person could compare with her beauty, that was the almost perfect woman he had seen before the demon emperor’s burial mound.
“How could there be such a peerless beauty within such a forbidden area?” Ye Fan was extremely cautious as he slowly backed away. He had a primordial divine body and his physical body had aged, however, the woman before him did not experience any changes, as though she were unaffected by the curse of the forbidden area, it was difficult to imagine what background she came from.
“What are you standing there dazed for? Why don’t you hurry up and pick the divine medicine?” Jiang Han Zhong exclaimed. The three people below could see Ye Fan at the edges of the peak but were unable to see the woman who was at the very top.
Atop the mountain, a demonic aura was surging as the woman who seemed like she had walked out of a picture slowly moved towards Ye Fan. Graceful, gentle and beautiful as she walked over leisurely.
“Not good!” Ye Fan immediately felt his body begin to age faster and a mysterious aura pressed towards him as he hurriedly retreated down the mountain.
This woman was definitely not ordinary, in fact, she was absolutely terrifying. She seemed to have the extraordinary power of the abyss within the forbidden area and Ye Fan found it difficult to bear. If it were not for his golden sea of bitterness which had not dried up, with its waves surging to the sky as it attempted to defend against the power, otherwise, he would have already died from old age.
“She couldn’t be the ‘Desolation’ of legends right?!” Ye Fan felt shock within his heart, he had heard that within the abyss of the forbidden area there was some unknown item, whether it was a living creature or a type of energy was unknown but it was referred to as “Desolation”
Thinking of this, Ye Fan swiftly retreated down the mountain. He wanted to lure this peerless beauty to face off with Jiang Han Zhong and the others. “Why have you retreated?” Jiang Han Zhong exclaimed. “Not good, why is there an additional woman?” Ji Yun Feng’s expression had changed, he was the first to notice the lady clothed in white and immediately felt the speed with which his vitality deteriorated increase.
“That is…….” Xu Dao Ling seemed as though he had discovered something inconceivable as a shocked expression appeared on his face. He retreated haltingly, his face was pale white and filled with terror.
Looking at his expression, Jiang Han Zhong and Ji Yun Feng were alarmed and swiftly retreated together with him as they questioned: “What’s the matter, what’s the background of that woman?” “It’s simply too unbelievable, this is impossible!” Xu Dao Ling’s face was a pasty white as he continued: “I’ve seen the picture of this woman before.”
Ji Yun Feng said in a soft voice: “Is her picture all that extraordinary? She is definitely a peerless beauty, I’ve never seen a woman so beautiful before.”
“That picture is an ancient item from six thousand years ago!”
Jiang Han Zhong and Ji Yun Feng sucked in a breath of fresh air after hearing this, a person from six thousand years ago…… this was simply too shocking, even their sects which were so powerful did not have any people who had lived for so long. “She isn’t a living person!” Xu Dao Ling exclaimed with his pale countenance. “What?!” The expressions on the faces of Ji Yun Feng and Jiang Han Zhang immediately changed as though they had thought of something. “Six thousand years ago, she was known as the number one sacred woman within the Eastern Badlands, faultless and perfect, several famous peerless experts in ancient history within the Eastern Badlands had attempted to chase her.
When Xu Dao Ling spoke of this, Ji Yun Feng and Jiang Han Zhong gradually guessed the identity of this female as they exclaimed: “Six thousand years ago, that immortal sect which was at its prime that was exterminated, was she a person from that sect?”
“That’s right, she is the sacred woman of the Celestial Rotating Jade from six thousand years ago!” When Xu Dao Ling said these words, he almost could not believe them himself, who would have imagined that they would meet an ancient character from the past.
Back in the day, the Sacred Ground which had been exterminated in the abyss was known as the Celestial Rotating Jade, similar to the Twinkling Brilliance Sacred Ground in that its name was derived from the stars within the Northern Dipper. Back in the day a bigwig of our Twinkling Brilliance Sacred Ground had helped her to cure a spiritual wound, leaving an inheritance of her picture and storing it within our treasury.
Ye Fan’s Spring of Life had not dried up and his senses were still keen allowing him to hear their words clearly as he felt stunned. This perfect woman was actually the first sacred woman within the Eastern Badlands in the past, she had been part of the exterminated immortal sect and was from the same sect as the crazed old man.
The crazed old man was foolish and imbecilic, he had previously gazed at the Forbidden Ancient Desolate Land for an entire night, if he had managed to see the sacred woman of the past with her unblemished body, filled with life and vigour, it was difficult to imagine what his feelings would be. “She had died six thousand years ago but actually appears now, there is only one possibility. She is currently a ‘Desolation Slave’.” Jiang Han Zhong spoke up.
In the distant past, there were several peerless experts who had ventured into the depths of the Forbidden Ancient Desolate Land, entering the endless abyss on their own. Eventually all of them had become a ‘Desolation Slave’.
“Only a peerless expert would be able to become a Desolation Slave, although she died six thousand years ago, she is likely to be extremely frightening.” Ji Yun Feng continued in a heavy voice: “What should we do? Do we have to retreat? I can feel that my flame of life will be extinguished at any moment.”
“Her body is releasing a dense aura of ‘Desolation’, I fear that we can no longer run away!” Xu Dao Ling’s entire body was covered in cold sweat.
The peerless beauty was like a spectre as she silently floated down, drifting past Ye Fan as she flew towards the three elders.
Ye Fan felt bitter, it was extremely possible that he would die here. Thinking about it, when they had first appeared on the sacred mountain, everything had been so smooth without any danger and they had managed to easily acquire the divine medicine. “I understand now, back then it was because of the nine dragon corpses and ancient bronze coffin falling from the sky that shocked the ‘Desolation’ within the endless abyss, causing the ‘Desolation Slaves’ to hide in fear.
“Let’s stake it all!” Jiang Han Zhong acted as he grasped the brocaded case, lights shone from his body as a copper mirror emerged from within his body, the figure of the eight trigrams was engraved on the back of it and the front of it was brilliant like that of a full moon, shining forth with a dazzling and resplendent light, a thick stream of light like that of a house immediately rushed towards the sacred woman of the Celestial Rotating Jade.
The entire peak of the Sacred Mountain began to tremble and lights seemed as though they were flowing down from the nine heavens, making one feel an unbelievably immense pressure.
Ye Fan felt shocked, Jiang Han Zhong’s strength was like that of an endlessly vast ocean, as a cultivator of the Spring of Life realm he simply could not fathom or measure how frightening this beam of light was. If it had landed on his body, he would have instantly turned to dust. This should be a realm above that of the Other Shore……” He knew that other than the “Wheel and Sea” the human body could possess other mysterious realms.
“Chii”
Something occurred which made everyone feel stunned, that beam of light which even made the stars in the sky seem dim actually dissipated like a wisp of smoke when it landed on the body of the sacred woman, failing to harm her in the slightest.
“DAANNG!”
A metallic ringing sound could be heard as the copper eight trigrams mirror descended, Jiang Han Zhong’s face was extremely pale as he swayed, his divine spring of energy was once again dry. “Huaaah” Ji Yun Feng acted as he grasped the unique black stone, a parasol rushed out of his body and shrouded the sky, flying towards the lady as the winds were in a frenzy, causing the sun and moon to be devoid of light.
“Bang!”
