Chapter 46: The Seal is Broken and the Villain's Fiancée Arrives!
"Exotic Flame?"
Arriving before the altar, Ning Ye looked at the flame burning in the center and couldn't help but shake his head. He had originally thought this flame would be an Exotic Flame, but in reality, the energy it contained was far less than half of such a flame. Thus, it was most likely just a Beast Flame.
In that case, he lost interest.
"It is better to unseal the second seal of the Reverse Moon Heavenly Saber first!"
Ning Ye turned his attention to the jade bottle suspended in a corner of the altar. Inside was the drop of Red Dragon blood he had been longing for.
Whoosh!
Ning Ye took a deep breath and directly grasped the jade bottle. At that moment, a burning sensation spread from his palm throughout his body. Even through the bottle, he could sense the powerful energy contained within the Red Dragon blood.
"Let us begin!"
With that in mind, a faint gleam flashed in Ning Ye's eyes, and he abruptly crushed the jade bottle in his hand.
Crack!
The jade bottle shattered!
At this instant, the temperature of the air in the Ancient Hall suddenly rose, and a scorching aura assaulted him. The Red Dragon blood in the bottle seemed to come alive, trembling violently. Vaguely, Ning Ye felt as if he were in ancient times, and he could even hear the roars and howls of ancient dragons.
"As expected of the blood of a Red Dragon! I don't know how many years have passed, yet it still possesses such spirituality!"
Ning Ye murmured, then slowly opened his palm.
Clang!
An ancient heavenly saber engraved with a blood moon appeared!
It was worth mentioning that the moment the Reverse Moon Heavenly Saber appeared, the restless Red Dragon blood actually calmed down, as if it feared this saber!
"Let us begin!"
Ning Ye noticed this detail and couldn't help but smile faintly. At this moment, he was very much looking forward to what kind of surprise the Reverse Moon Heavenly Saber would bring him after unsealing the second seal!
With that, Ning Ye flicked his finger and directly dabbed the blood of the Red Dragon onto the blade of the Reverse Moon Heavenly Saber. As the fresh blood flowed down the blade, sliding down before finally disappearing into the saber's body.
Boom!
At this instant, an earth-shattering Killing Intent raged in all directions!
Upon the Reverse Moon Heavenly Saber, an additional pattern appeared. This pattern depicted an altar, and on the altar stood a humanoid being, as if about to ascend to immortality!
At the same time, a series of System prompts sounded in Ning Ye's ears:
Ding! Congratulations, Host, on unsealing the second seal of the Reverse Moon Heavenly Saber.
Ding! Congratulations, Host, on activating the Heaven-Defying Seven Demonic Blades --- Moon Slaying (Shì Yuè), the Second Blade.
Sealed Reverse Moon Heavenly Saber: Heaven cannot bury it, nor can the earth cover it. In the Nine Heavens World, it is the foremost heavenly saber of all ages. Slaying a cultivator allows one to seize two-tenths of their Lifespan and two-tenths of their cultivation.
System Prompt: The Lifespan and cultivation seized by the Host will increase as the seal is removed.
Star Extermination: The first blade of the Heaven-Defying Seven Demonic Blades. Infuse Lifespan to unleash a Heaven-Defying strike, striking down stars and moons!
System Prompt: Unleashing one strike requires the Host to infuse ten years of Lifespan.
Moon Slaying (Shì Yuè), the Second Blade: The second blade of the Heaven-Defying Seven Demonic Blades. Infuse Lifespan to sever time and space!
System Prompt: Unleashing one strike requires the Host to infuse thirty years of Lifespan.
Hearing the System prompts, Ning Ye felt completely at ease.
The second seal has been unsealed. From now on, as long as he slays cultivators with the Reverse Moon Heavenly Saber, he can obtain two-tenths of their Lifespan and two-tenths of their cultivation. It must be said that this is a massive improvement!
In addition, the second blade of the Heaven-Defying Seven Demonic Blades --- Moon Slaying (Shì Yuè). Although it requires thirty years of Lifespan to unleash this strike, this strike can sever time and space, and one can imagine how terrifying its power is.
With this blade unsealed, even if he encounters a Sacred Realm expert, he can contend against them!
His train of thought ended there, and the smile on Ning Ye's face could not be suppressed.
"Time is almost up! Next, it is time to collect the spoils of war and make a quick getaway!"
Ning Ye suppressed his excitement and focused his attention on the other two divine artifacts on the altar.
"The Dragon Slaying Bow was specifically requested by Jun Qianyue. Then this remaining Dragon Scale Armor is mine!"
With that, Ning Ye, without another word, directly reached out and put the Dragon Slaying Bow and the Dragon Scale Armor into his storage ring. Just as he was filled with the joy of his rewards and preparing to leave, a cold and majestic voice came from outside the main hall:
"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the Forbidden Land of my Junlin Imperial Family's Scripture Pavilion!"
Hearing this familiar voice, a flash of Killing Intent flickered in Ning Ye's eyes.
"Third Prince Wu You? Why is he here?"
"If that's the case... then I can't let him go!"
Ning Ye shook his head. Although he knew that it was not the time to completely break with the Junlin Imperial Family, if the Third Prince saw him at this moment, the entire plan would be ruined. Therefore, Ning Ye did not mind killing him to silence him and eradicate the root of the trouble!
Just as his thoughts were turning, three figures walked into the Ancient Hall.
"Third Prince Wu You. Third Princess Consort, Nian Nujiao. And another... Sacred Realm expert?!"
Ning Ye's gaze swept over the Third Prince and the Third Princess Consort in turn, finally settling on the silver-haired old man in sackcloth standing behind them. At that moment, he could feel the Sacred Realm Qi from the old man!
"Ning Ye! It's actually you!"
The Third Prince looked at Ning Ye with a surprised expression. Obviously, even he hadn't expected that the person who broke into the Scripture Pavilion tonight would be Ning Ye.
"Killing my Evil Sect experts! Trespassing into the Forbidden Land of the Junlin Imperial Family! Ning Ye, you are incredibly bold!"
Nian Nujiao crossed her arms, her beautiful eyes full of playful sarcasm as she looked at Ning Ye. Before tonight, she had been worried about how to get revenge on Ning Ye. Now, she had not expected Ning Ye to deliver himself to her doorstep. This was an excellent opportunity for revenge.
"You two really want me dead?"
Ning Ye chuckled as he glanced at the Third Prince and Nian Nujiao, asking indifferently.
"Today, you will die!"
A cold arc appeared at the corner of the Third Prince's mouth.
"You must die! Even the gods can't save you!"
Nian Nujiao added, gritting her teeth.
"Then let us see!"
Ning Ye shook his head, his gaze fixed on the old man in sackcloth standing behind the two of them. He could confirm that this old man was not among the Ten Great Divine Generals of Junlin, yet he possessed the cultivation of the Sacred Realm. Clearly, he was a hidden expert in the Imperial Palace. However, he did not believe this was a sure-death situation. After all, if he were to activate Heavenly Prohibition now, coupled with the Reverse Moon Heavenly Saber's second blade, Moon Slaying (Shì Yuè), even a Sacred Realm expert might not be able to stop him!
"Heh! You won't shed tears until you see the coffin! Old Man Ye! Next, I will trouble you to capture this traitor!"
The Third Prince nodded solemnly to the old man in sackcloth behind him.
Hearing this, the old man in sackcloth silently and slowly raised his head. He quietly looked at Ning Ye, his ancient eyes showing no joy or sorrow, yet they carried the terrifying and powerful pressure of the Sacred Realm, locking onto Ning Ye!
At this instant, the atmosphere of the entire Ancient Hall became tense, solidified once more, and a great battle seemed imminent!
And just at this critical moment, a gentle breeze, from who knows where, blew, causing the Beast Flame in the center of the altar to sway violently. Immediately after, a playful and mocking laugh sounded:
"Hahahaha! This Scripture Pavilion is truly lively tonight!"
As the voice fell, a tall, graceful figure was seen, slowly walking into the Ancient Hall of the Forbidden Land on the ninth floor of the Scripture Pavilion with her hands behind her back.
The bright light of the ever-burning lamp shone on her cold and peerless face, making her appear incomparably beautiful and stunning. The exquisite black silk ribbon covering her eyes made her appear even more mysterious and otherworldly.
And this newcomer was none other than the Second Young Miss of the Jun Family, Jun Qianyue!
