Chapter 1537: Flashing Red with Anger!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The bald Million Wine Mountain was split open! From afar, the silver line was considered rather thin and soft. But when it floated over so lightly, it became the sharpest weapon in the world!
It easily shaved off half the mountain!
The people standing close could see the tidy mark on the mid-mountain!
Almost everyone was stunned, rooted to the ground as they were shocked by the scene before them. It was to the point that their eyes were wide open and mouths agape.
This even included the elders that were trying their best to activate the Heaven-Locking Formation.!!
“T-this… is the Heaven-Locking Formation’s power?” After a while, Elder Hua Feng couldn’t help but mutter softly as his eyes were filled with shock.
They couldn’t be blamed for being so shocked. Ever since this Heaven-Locking Formation was crafted and left behind back then, it had never been activated.
Every year, the director would personally bring along some elders to undergo some maintenance, but they hadn’t seen the true abilities of this Heaven-Locking Formation—until now…
One had to know that for normal true gods… Even though they couldn’t move mountains and fill the seas, they could still destroy a few mountain peaks.
The reason why they were so shocked that the Heaven-Locking Formation split Million Wine Mountain was that it was different from ordinary mountains! That was because this mountain was sculpted personally by the first director and his people with precious volcanic stones a million years ago.
During the few hundred years when the academy was first established, Million Wine Mountain had always been bald, and nobody was allowed to go near it.
It was only when time passed that Million Wine Mountain finally became its current state through generations of repair and nurture. On the surface, it was the same as the other mountains, but its rocks were much tougher!
If not, with so many lightning bolts striking in the past tens of thousands of years, an average mountain peak would’ve been leveled to the ground. How could it still maintain its original appearance so easily?
Yet at this point, this mountain was actually easily split open by that Heaven-Locking Formation! How could one not be surprised?
However, the more shocking thing was at the back. With the middle of the mountain as the boundary, the entire Million Wine Mountain was split into two.
The upper portion was cut into layers by the Heaven-Locking Formation. Every layer it went up, it would be a certain distance away from the bottom.
The heights of these levels that were cut out were completely different! Very quickly, the upper portion of the Million Wine Mountain showed a unique spiral shape!
The mountain body shown on the outside was light-gray in color. When the light shone on it, one could see light being reflected in a scale-like form.
The pieces were tight and tidy. At one glance, they seemed like the scales of a fiend.
These volcanic rocks were very precious, and one rock was usually the size of a fist. In the God Residence Realm, it could be sold for a decent price.
The entire Million Wine Mountain was made from this! This showed that the academy had spent a lot of money on it!
The more Elder Bo Yan and the rest saw, the more stunned they were.
Million Wine Mountain was costly to make. During the past tens of thousands of years, the academy elders and directors had poured in a lot of their hard work and effort.
But the more this was so, the more it proved how shocking the item being suppressed was!
Looking at the flickering Heaven-Locking Formation and feeling the terrifying suppression on the surface, even the elders present were secretly shocked.
In such a situation, even if they were the ones who went down, they might not come back alive. The only thing that comforted them was that after the Heaven-Locking Formation was activated, the strange coldness that surged out of the fountain didn’t continue spreading toward the surroundings.
Additionally, as Million Wine Mountain was cut into such a state, the bloody frost that originally covered it had broken and caused many cracks.
It seemed like signs of it being re-sealed. However… Rong Xiu and Yue’er were still downstairs!
Shangguan Jing’s eyes were overwhelmed with shock.
He stood with his hands behind his back. He gradually tightened his fists as his bodily aura became colder and more dangerous.
Even he didn’t dare to forcefully barge into this Heaven-Locking Formation. Hence, the only thing he could do now was wait!
Wait for Yue’er and Rong Xiu to come back! Shangguan Jing took a deep breath in and tried his best to calm himself down. Other than this, there is no other possibility!
…
Plop!
Rong Xiu charged into the fountain without hesitation.
The fountain water kept spouting out—it instantly swallowed his figure.
The golden light surrounding him shone faintly.
The fountain wasn’t deep, so he quickly saw a familiar figure. Chu Liuyue was quietly floating in the water and seemed very close to the bottom of the fountain.
Detecting the intense coldness on her, Rong Xiu was shocked and rapidly approached her. At this point, he then saw that a layer of thick bloody frost had formed on Chu Liuyue’s body!
The horrifying coldness kept oozing out of the crack on the rock at the bottom. Most of it gathered in the fountain and spouted out next.
A small part flowed toward Chu Liuyue. In a short amount of time, the frost on her body seemed to increase in thickness.
Rong Xiu reached out to hug her, but before his hand could touch her body, there seemed to be countless sharp flying daggers approaching him rapidly!
He knitted his brows.
Bang!
A ball of golden light was instantly illuminated on his fingertip!
The scorching temperature caused the surrounding water current to make ‘zz zz’ sounds. Then, he walked forward determinedly and meticulously held her hands.
It was cold to the touch, and the coldness seemed to directly travel to his heart from his palms!
Harsh murderous intent flashed across the bottom of Rong Xiu’s eyes! The golden fire in his hands suddenly exploded again, but his movements were still very careful. He was terrified that if he used too much force, he would harm Chu Liuyue, who was in front of him.
Her entire body was frozen now, and she almost became a giant popsicle.
Rong Xiu didn’t dare to be at ease or take it lightly.
The golden fire quickly followed Chu Liuyue’s hand and spread toward the surroundings.
The thick blood-red frost started to show signs of melting. Finally, after a while, half her hand was free from that ice layer.
Rong Xiu went forward and held her thin fingers. His palm was burning hot, which increasingly showed how icy her entire body was.
Rong Xiu leaned in more closely. At this point, the two of them were facing each other, and he finally saw her appearance clearly.
Below the ice layer, her eyes were tightly shut, her lips were pale, and her brows were tightly knitted.
She always held her emotions in. For her to make such an expression, it showed that she had suffered quite a bit of torture when she was frozen by this frost.
Rong Xiu carefully felt for her hand. Suddenly, his movements stopped, and he looked over.
With this look, he then saw that the wound on her hand was already open, and it looked badly mangled.
The sinister coldness seemed to have entered her body from here. At this point, the frozen frost had melted a little.
Chu Liuyue’s wrist was revealed.
Rong Xiu put his fingers on it, split out a portion of force, and checked her inner condition.
The force froze. In the Yuan meridian, it was blocked by the coldness.
In comparison, half her body was already damaged!
Rong Xiu’s eyes turned sharp. The ultimate black color filled his eyes in a sinister and harsh manner.
