C638 The Underhand Day
"Jun Yi, you are crazy! Stop right now!"
The Vermillion Bird Saint Lord roared desperately. He had never thought that Jun Yi would be so decisive. He would rather use such an extreme method of self-destruction than go back with them. One should know that this was the self-destruction of a supreme being. Not to mention whether they could safely endure it, even if they were lucky enough not to die, This level of energy release would definitely attract the most terrifying heavenly tribulation. At that time, not to mention themselves and the others. Everything within a hundred mile radius would be reduced to scorched earth. The Four Direction Holy Lords were not willing to die together with this madman!
"Your Highness, please stop. We promise you that we will return to the Heaven Realm now!"
This was the voice of the Azure Dragon Sage, and it was also the leader of the Four Direction Sages. However, he, who had always been known for his composure, had the same shocked expression on his face at this moment. He was deeply afraid that Jun Yi would really act in a hot-headed manner and commit suicide together with them!
When Jun Yi heard this, he was stunned. He shook his head in disdain and said, "Sorry, it's already too late!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the spiritual Qi in this place immediately flowed more and more violently. It was all absorbed by Jun Yi. As he crazily absorbed the spiritual Qi, his Qi had already reached a shocking level!
The Four Great Lords knew that if they allowed him to continue improving like this, the situation would become even more uncontrollable. When they were about to increase their speed to the maximum, just as they were about to reach Jun Yi. . . A huge explosion drowned out everything. At this moment, the Four Symbols Sealing Formation was successfully activated. Therefore, the moment this huge energy was released, Jun Yi's figure was directly sealed into the interstitial space created by the joint efforts of the Four Directions Saint. However, things weren't over yet. Just as the Four Direction Lords thought that they could finally heave a sigh of relief. . . A violent destructive power suddenly blasted the entire void into nothingness, and the Four Direction Lords were the first to be devoured by this destructive power. Their divine bodies were instantly reduced to ashes!
After an hour, the four of them once again materialized. However, their protective holy light was so dim that it could not be seen. It was obvious that Jun Yi's self-destruction had still caused them serious injuries in the end. However, they were secretly glad that they were able to keep their lives. Furthermore, the power of the self-destruction of the Four Symbols Seal was greatly weakened. The heavenly tribulation that had caused the Four Direction Holy Lords to feel the greatest fear had finally not appeared.
"That bastard Jun Yi nearly caused us to die as well!"
The Vermillion Bird Saint Lord cursed with lingering fear. However, he could still accept this outcome in his heart. Although the severe injury this time had caused them to lose over a thousand years of their cultivation, their mission had basically been completed. Without Jun Yi, who was a major threat, Lord would certainly be delighted. It was about time for the Immortality Peach Gathering again. It would be best if they could get more rewards at that time.
"Alright. Since Jun Yi is dead, we should return to the Heaven Realm and report to Lord. "
The leader of the four Lords, Lord Azure Dragon, said indifferently.
As soon as these words were spoken, Lord Vermilion Bird and the others nodded in agreement. However, just as they were about to leave, they realized that the usually silent Lord Black Tortoise had a solemn expression on his face, as if he was sensing something. This made the three of them extremely surprised. Lord Azure Dragon immediately asked, "Black Tortoise, is there something wrong?"
Xuan Wu was the one who kept a low profile among them, so his attacking power wasn't outstanding. However, nobody dared to look down on his terrifying defense and perception, even if he was the number one cultivator.
"Don't you all feel that something is strange?" Seeing the three of them looking at him suspiciously, Xuan Wu Saint Lord sighed and said with a solemn expression, "Although Jun Yi died from an explosion, there should still be some residual soul power surges. However, with my perception, I can't sense it at all. "
When Lord Azure Dragon and the others heard this, their expressions changed because there was only one explanation for this situation. Jun Yi was still alive in this world. However, they could only watch Jun Yi explode and die. Could that kind of terrifying power be fake?
"Could it be related to Jun Yi's Heaven Stealing Law?" At this moment, White Tiger Saint said hesitantly. As soon as these words were spoken, the thoughts of the four of them instantly returned to several hundred years ago. Jun Yi had attempted to assassinate Lord, but he was surrounded by them and hundreds of supreme beings from the Heaven Realm. In the end, he managed to escape with a strange law, but the situation at that time seemed to be different from what it was now. However, the four of them more or less understood his power of Laws. From the dead to the dead.
"Could he really come back from the dead?" It was clear that the Vermilion Bird Sage did not believe that he, whose main body was known as the Undying Bird, could actually come back to life. Naturally, he had also grasped the law of rebirth from the flames. However, this did not mean that he could be reborn countless times. The so-called rebirth was nothing more than burning one's life to restore oneself to its original state in the shortest amount of time. If he really was immortal and indestructible. . . How could he possibly be beneath the Azure Dragon Clan?
"It might not be possible to revive from the dead, but what if one has never died in the first place?" Lord Xuanwu, who had always been confident in his intuition, said faintly, "Everyone, why don't you recall how Jun Yi escaped from the siege of us and hundreds of supreme beings?"
Azure Dragon and the others were instantly immersed in their memories. Their expressions changed drastically, and they spat out two words hatefully, "Clone. "
"Compared to the last time, Jun Yi's clone isn't any weaker than the main body in all aspects. It has almost reached the point where it can be faked. It's no wonder that we haven't discovered any flaws until now. "
Black Tortoise sighed and said. "If I hadn't noticed that something was amiss, I'm afraid I would have been deceived by this kid again. "
"Then what should we do? Are we going to return empty-handed just like that?" The truth was right in front of them. Even if the Vermillion Bird Saint Lord refused to believe it, he could only accept it. Not only did he fail to complete the task assigned by Lord, but they had also lost a thousand years of their cultivation for no reason. The more the Vermillion Bird Saint Lord thought about it, the more cowardly he felt!
"Now that things have come to this, even if he knows that he will be scolded by Lord. . . We have to go back. It's been so long. Jun Yi had already fled to an unknown place. If he really wanted to hide. . . We can't drag him out without paying a price. We can't possibly turn the entire world upside down, right? What if you mess up Lord's plan because of this? It's not worth it. "
Green Dragon gritted his teeth and said with a cold smile," Besides, it's not like we didn't gain anything this time, even though it was just a clone of Jun Yi that died. It must have been split from the original body, and we will be able to live a glorious life together. It's a matter of life and death. Now that the clone has self-destructed. . . The injuries on the original body would only be more severe than we imagined. Besides, the spiritual energy in the mortal world is pitifully thin compared to the Heaven Realm. If he doesn't cultivate for a thousand years, he won't be able to recover! "
