I'm Actually a Cultivation Bigshot Chapter 697: Black Guardian Broke Down

Chapter 697: Black Guardian Broke Down

A fierce flame passed by, dyeing the Chaos fiery red. When the heat dissipated, there was nothing left in place. Everyone rubbed their eyes and stared blankly in the now-empty space. The skeleton was gone, just like that.
The Yun ancestor had not even arrived for five minutes because he was wiped out. Was he not supposed to be all-powerful? He was burned clean! There should be a limit to tooting one's own horn!
"No, come back, ancestor! Come back—!" Black Guardian roared hoarsely. He could not believe what was happening in front of him. His worldview just shattered.
All the color had drained out of White Guardian's scared face and he was trembling non-stop. "It's absolutely impossible for the flame to burn away the ancestor's skeleton. No, I must be hallucinating. This must be a mistake!" he exclaimed.
Suddenly, his body jerked and he said in fear, "It must be because of that straw hat on the ancestor's head! After that thing was ignited, the flames shot up to the sky and a qualitative change must have occurred!"
"How could this be? What kind of straw is that? It's so terrifying!"
"Incredible! I was shocked to hear that there are too many secrets in the seventh dimension. It's just too scary!"
"Why? Why do so many inexplicable things always happen in the seventh dimension? First, there was the shovel, then, the ladle. Even the straw hat's so terrifying! This is so unfair!"
"Run, run for your lives! I'm getting out of here."
The people from the fourth dimension started to panic. That was the first skeleton of the Yun ancestor, a terrifying thing that was claimed to be indelible. Yet, it had evaporated before it even had a chance to make the first move. How was it possible for them to continue fighting under these circumstances? The seventh dimension was far more terrifying than they thought. This time, they were not adequately prepared. Thus, it was best for them to report back to the fourth dimension as quickly as they could.
However, the Heavenly Palace had already predicted their retreat.
"Do you think you can come and go as you please? What do you take us for?"
"There's no way we'll let our game meat go when they've just served themselves up on a platter for us!"
"Spare no one! Charge!" Nanan took the lead and immediately had her eyes on two Wisdom Elites. She activated her devouring power and with an inhale, she stopped them from running.
"Hey, chickens, since you're here, do your part, too, and don't let them run away," said Dragin to the three chickens.
"Alright, alright. Leave it to us." One of the chickens stared at White Guardian. Suddenly, a bright light burst from its eyes as it said excitedly, "Oh? Are you what I think you are? Yes, you're an ice silkworm demon! My favorite food! Let me at it!"
Yang Jing quickly flew to the high platform and rescued Gu Yuan from the cross. "Are you okay?" he asked in a concerned voice.
Gu Yuan smiled slightly. "Hehe, this is nothing."
Xiao Chengfeng also came over, smiled, and said, "Gu Yuan, you're the man! Well done!"
"I've already captured Ye Qingshan and Lei Teing. I'll leave them to you to vent out your anger!" said the Jade Emperor.
"Do you seriously think you're going to be alive much longer?" said Black Guardian suddenly. His tone was full of contempt. At this time, he was being besieged by Shi Tuqin and a chicken and there was no way to fight back. His Origins of Life had almost fully withered away. He looked to be at the ends of his rope with the hair on his head still in flames. His body was so scorched that smoke continued to rise from him.
"A single spark can start a wildfire!" With a casual flick of her brush, a poem turned into the power of great Wisdom and crashed down on Black Guardian. At the same time, the divine fire of the Chaos Divine Phoenix shot out toward Black Guardian. The combined power was enough to burn his Origins of Life to a crisp.
He probably knew that he could not escape death and started to go insane. He stared at Gu Yuan, eyes filled with bitter hatred. "I've had enough of you!" he yelled at Gu Yuan. "I said you were already on my kill list, how could I let you live if I die? Hahaha—"
The hatred he had accumulated toward Gu Yuan had reached its peak. How dare an ant like Gu Yuan speak so disrespectfully towards him? What made it worse was he could not torture him with physical pain. That was why he had to resort to inflicting emotional pain on him but alas, his plan did not come to fruition.
However, he had already planted something in Gu Yuan's body to make his death inevitable. He could lose the war but there was no way he was going to let Gu Yuan live. "Die, you scum!" he shouted cruelly.
The next moment, black flames rose from Gu Yuan's body like a fire snake, devouring him at an extremely fast speed, leaving him no chance to resist at all. Yang Jing and the others were all shocked but found that this black fire had long been connected with Gu Yuan's soul. There was nothing they could do at all.
"Hahahaha! Now that's what I call satisfying! Let me watch how you die with my own eyes!" said Black Guardian happily.
Gu Yuan's face was calm, and he glanced at Black Guardian with contempt. "What are you laughing about? Idiot! You and the rest of your crew are going down with me!"
Soon, Gu Yuan dissipated between heaven and earth. All the people from the seventh dimension were stunned. Yang Jing's eyes were red and Juling Shen was clenching his giant ax firmly. Yao Mengji let out a long sigh as his tears streamed down his face.
'Farewell, old friend.'
However, an eye-piercing pure white light suddenly lit up the dark sky.
"It's the portrait the expert drew!"
"Look, Gu Yuan's portrait seems to have come alive. There's even an aura swirling around it."
"The expert must've foreseen this all along! There might still be hope for Gu Yuan!"
"That must be it! That must be the reason why the expert drew this portrait!"
The eyes of all the people from the Heavenly Palace were as bright as stars as hope started to grow inside their hearts.
"What's this? I won't be fooled by whatever trick this is!" said Black Guardian with a sneer. Suddenly, his sneer froze and his eyes turned red as if he had seen the most despairing thing in the universe.
"No! This is impossible!" he screamed hoarsely.
The portrait was floating mid-air and was swirling with a brilliant light as the drawing slowly disappeared. In front of it, a human-shaped light form was gradually condensing and they could sense the familiar aura, the familiar face, and that stubble… Who else could it belong to but Gu Yuan?
Gu Yuan was also a little confused. He looked at himself up and down. In a tone of disbelief, he asked, "Did I just…come back to life?"
Yang Jing nodded. "Looks like it."
Yao Mengji's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. He laughed and said, "Sh*t! I thought you were a goner! I cried for nothing!"
"Although you're a spirit now, you've broken through to the Chaos Daluo Golden Immortal realm from the Saint realm. Looks like I need to transfer you to the Underworld's establishment," said the Jade Emperor jokingly.
The Heavenly Palace people laughed.
"Impossible! I saw your body being annihilated with my own eyes. There shouldn't be a hint of your Origins of Life left. This can't be happening!" Black Guardian's face was distorted with rage and if his eyes popped out any further, it would be completely detached from their sockets. He charged toward Gu Yuan while roaring, "Die! You must die!"
He had become obsessed with killing Gu Yuan. One second ago, he could accept his own death as long as Gu Yuan was no longer of this world, too. The next second, he had completely broken down after knowing that Gu Yuan was still alive and well. How could he rest in peace like that?
However, he was suppressed by Shi Tuqin before he even got close to Gu Yuan. Gu Yuan walked leisurely toward him and with a smile, he said, "You can't kill me! Neh, neh, neh! I'm stronger than you!" He then turned around and wiggled his butt at Black Guardian. "Are you mad? Tell me you're mad! Hahaha!"
Black Guardian was so mad that blood spurted out from his mouth and he started sobbing like a baby. He had completely broken down. 'Why's my life so miserable?' "Kill me! Oh, please, kill me! I beg you. Even death's better than this!"
They had reached the tail-end of the battle and no one from the fourth dimension would be spared. Shi Tuqin did not put away her Guqin but instead, she continued playing. Her music drifted out, spreading to all four directions.
"Oh no, we've been discovered! Run!"
"Ah! This music's so weird. I can't move at all!"
"Damn! I've told you we should've run away sooner! This seventh dimension's too weird!"
More than a dozen terrified figures had hidden in the dark and were struggling for their lives. They were all spies sent by the powerhouses of the fourth dimension and had sneakily followed the two Guardians here to better observe the situation so they could report back to their masters. They never thought they would be discovered.
"Oh, no!" War Angel's face changed and she could feel a pressurizing force coming down on her as the music drifted to where she was. Without hesitation, she unfolded her wings and turned to leave. However, a small fist suddenly fell from the sky and sent her flying.
"Huh? A human with wings? Is this a special being?" Nanan could tell that she was not a demon and that was her original form.
War Angel was surrounded by white radiance. She kindly said "Sister, I'm War Angel from the Angel Clan. I came here out of curiosity and hold no malice toward you. I was never a part of the battle so there's no need to see me as the enemy."
The angels were naturally arrogant, and War Angel was the King of Battle among the angels. However, when it came to dealing with Nanan and the others, she had no choice but to behave courteously to them.
Nanan nodded her head vigorously. "You're right!" Then her tone turned sharp as she asked curiously, "By the way, what kind of demon are you? Can we eat you?"
'Eat...me? This bunch of people wants to eat me?' Her heart sank and her expression became cold but she managed to control the anger rising in her. "Of course not."
"That's not for you to decide. Brother Li has an interest in strange-looking creatures like you. Why don't you come back with me and let him decide?" asked Nanan in all-seriousness.
"You're not going to let me go?" War Angel suddenly became extremely cautious. She raised her hand and a bright sword appeared. Her battle spirit was increasing rapidly. "The Angel Clan's the king of the fourth dimension and stronger than the bunch of people you just fought. I advise you to back off while I'm still being nice."
Dragin rushed over with the Immortal Trap Rope. "Sister Nanan, let's tie her up since she won't cooperate."
War Angel spread her wings and an incomparably holy brilliance fell as a mighty power rose to the sky. "Prepare yourself for a fight to the death if you insist on tying me up!" she said coldly.
In just a moment, War Angel was tied up and carried to the Area of the Gods by Dragin and Nanan. She never once stopped glaring at them.
Meanwhile, at the Yun's family manor back in the fourth dimension, an old man with a thin face suddenly opened his eyes and a torrent of aura suddenly exploded from his body. A roar came from the entire void, and the Wisdom in the area trembled like a huge wave.
An angry voice came from his mouth. "How dare the people of the seventh dimension destroy my skeleton?" He quickly received his memories sent back by his divine consciousness. "I can't believe I was wiped out within five minutes of my arrival! The divine fire was just an ordinary fire of Wisdom. It doesn't have a strong enough destructive power to burn my skeleton so it must be the straw hat! What exactly is it made of?
"It must be a Spiritual Root if it can induce such terrifying power! It looks like I've underestimated the seventh dimension. Never have I seen such treasures in the fourth dimension. However, Spiritual Roots are very rare so they should've used up all their stock. They must be desperate if they used a Chaos Fire Spiritual Root, and that means it should be safe to proceed with the next step."
Soon, Shi Tuqin and the three girls arrived back at the four-part architecture with an abundance of game meat.
"How was it? Did you manage to drive off all the intruders?" asked Li Nianfan with concern when he saw them.
"Yup! And we brought home some game meat for our zoo!" said Dragin with a smile.
"Oh? Show me!" said Li Nianfan with a laugh. He was truly enjoying himself. In his previous life, he never expected to come across these exotic animals but now, he had a zoo! Then there was also the fact that he could try out new kinds of meat!
The new game meat opened up his eyes to a whole new world. However, he gasped when he saw War Angel. "Is this…an angel?"
'And a gorgeous lady at that!' He was shocked and quickly approached her to have a closer look. The angel was hanging upside down in a cage and bound up tightly with a rope. Her mouth was stuffed with some cloth and her blue eyes were glaring at everyone.
She had a heart-shaped face, a slender neck, lips that were a little pale, and ears that were somewhat pointy—she looked just like a human! The most special thing about her was her snow-white skin and the pure white wings on her back. The wings were huge, beautiful, and spanned almost two-thirds of her height.
Li Nianfan swept his eyes up and down War Angel. He was amazed by how the rope was accentuating her curves. "Who was the one who tied her up?" he asked.
"We were only in charge of subduing her. The Immortal Trap Rope was the one that wrapped itself around her. Why do you ask?" said Nanan.
"Oh, no reason," he said while thinking to himself that he might have to give the Immortal Trap Rope a new name.
