Chapter 1222: Ten Mile Peach Forest
Chapter 1222: Ten Mile Peach Forest
…
The peach garden’s daughter didn’t disappoint. With her first move, she used the power of space. Space rippled and a peach blossom appeared.
And this was only the start.
After the first peach blossom appeared, it was followed by a second peach blossom, a third, and then a fourth…in the blink of an eye, countless peach blossoms appeared, and a green tree branch poked out behind each one.
Water droplets covered the flower petals. Each drop of dew was illuminated by light in the hall, releasing a dazzling light.
It seemed as if when Peachy pointed her finger, she had surmounted space, causing a sturdy peach tree from the peach garden to directly descend here.
Even if its flowers were lush and blossoming, what could a single peach tree do? But this one came from the peach garden. With this additional description, even though its aura wasn’t obvious, no one dared to underestimate it.
Behind the crystal wall, the Dragon Saint’s giant eyes shined with acclaim. This girl Peachy was indeed outstanding. For that, many years ago he had tried to have her marry into the East Sea and become the East Sea’s daughter-in-law.
But that shameful peach seller had caused trouble and disregarded the friendship they had developed throughout the years. He even flipped the tables on him because of this. It was just hateful to the extreme.
Mm?
The Dragon Saint suddenly furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at Peachy’s eyes that were bursting with a dazzling brilliance. At this moment, the divine sense of a Saint converged onto her, and he saw a vague black shadow beneath her. Its aura…was unknown!
What was this? With the peach seller’s skill, he wouldn’t ignore his daughter. This shadow would not have been able to escape his eyes. Since he had discovered it before, why hadn’t he cleaned it up?
What was going on here?
The Dragon Saint’s eyebrows furrowed even tighter. But before he could look more, a light humph resounded in his ears and his Saint sense that watched Peachy immediately blurred.
How hateful!
That old man, he couldn’t solve this problem but wouldn’t let him intervene. Peachy was the girl he had chosen to be his daughter-in-law, so would he harm her?
He had long since thought there was something wrong with Peachy’s aura…but now he was sure there was a problem. No matter what, he had to find out the truth about this as soon as possible.
As the Dragon Saint furrowed his eyebrows and cursed inwardly, Qin Yu received a reminder from Old Turtle. Because Old Turtle didn’t dare to take any risks in front of a Saint, he had restrained his aura with his utmost effort, and his perception was vague.
But there was a point that he was sure of. There was an issue with Peachy’s aura, and she had to be hiding something. Moreover, this method of concealment was incredible. If it weren’t for Peachy taking action and quickening her own aura, it would have been impossible to sense it.
Qin Yu’s eyes flashed. He first thought of the Path of 10,000 Souls. Could the wrong feeling that Old Turtle felt be because of this?
His heart sank and his expression grew increasingly dignified. Peachy wasn’t just one person; what happened to her also involved Ning Ling and You Qi’s safety. If she had a problem, the two of them would be impacted.
It wasn’t that Qin Yu was making a fuss, but this matter clearly wasn’t as simple as it seemed.
Peachy was the Spring Master’s daughter and the Spring Master was a True Saint who had reached the other shore. Even if there was a problem, he could fix it for her.
But now, there was clearly a problem with Peachy’s body…perhaps this was the reason she never fought with anyone.
Thinking about it further, the ‘incredible concealment method’ that Old Turtle spoke about should be the work of the Spring Master.
The more he thought about it the more shocked he was. He couldn’t continue along this train of thought!
He took a deep breath and suppressed his shaking thoughts. But he had already made a decision. He had to figure out what problem Peachy was suffering from.
In the hall that was full of cultivators, besides the Dragon Saint and Qin Yu, there was another person who sensed something off with Peachy’s aura.
It was a middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance. He stood quietly in a corner and from the time he entered the hall, no one had paid attention to him. At this moment, as he looked up at Peachy, a sharp light surged in his eyes.
As for the others, they were all shocked by Peachy’s skills. They gasped in admiration, thinking that the Spring Master was truly worthy of being the Spring Master. His daughter was extraordinary.
Across the arena, Lian Yi revealed a dignified expression. He could feel an intense sense of threat from these peach blossoms. But, this didn’t cause him to feel dread or unease. Instead, his eyes grew increasingly bright.
Only such a Peachy was worth chasing, and only like this did she have the qualifications to match him and share supreme honor and glory together with him in the future.
Lian Yi had lofty ambitions and was also confident he could realize them. And marrying Peachy was an incomparably crucial step in achieving this.
Today, he would teach Peachy that while a woman could be strong, a man would always be stronger than her. He, the Western Mountain’s Lian Yi, was her best choice and also a man she could rely on and depend on for the rest of her life.
He laughed out loud and stepped forward, “Junior-apprentice sister Peachy, allow me to experience the peach garden’s Ten Mile Peach Forest today. If I offend you somehow, I ask for you to forgive me. After this, I will apologize to you.”
He was full of confidence!
Before he had even made a move, he had determined that victory was his.
This was Western Mountain’s Lian Yi. He was full of self-confidence and never cowardly. And facts proved that he had the qualifications for this confidence. He remained entirely still, allowing the spatial fluctuations to wash over him.
But the sounds that rang through the air like dull thunder were enough to show how much killing power these seemingly ordinary and harmless spatial fluctuations had.
Lian Yi was calm and unhurried. The moment he walked in, peach blossoms bloomed everywhere and an unparalleled peach blossom fragrance rushed through his senses. A moment later, his figure vanished within the endless peach blossoms as if he had stepped into another world.
The peach garden’s Ten Mile Peach Forest was a great supernatural art based on the foundation of the power of space. It was personally created by the Spring Master.
Once someone was swept inside, they would be sucked into the ‘Ten Mile Peach Forest’. In truth, there was another world inside it. It was basically a killing array formed by endless peach blossoms.
One way to undo the Ten Mile Peach Forest was to find the source of power within that transformed space. Another way was to destroy all of the peach blossoms, similar to breaking through all methods with a singular force.
When Qin Yu killed all the sea monsters in the Endless Sea, this was actually what he did.
To state the name of the Ten Mile Peach Forest, it was clear that Lian Yi knew what sort of supernatural art he faced. But even so, he still stepped in without hesitation. His pride and confidence could be seen!
And most importantly, Lian Yi chose the second path. He would break the Ten Mile Peach Forest apart, proving that the cultivators of the Western Mountain were stronger. He would also use this opportunity to break open a crack in Peachy’s arrogant heart!
Bang –
Bang –
Peach blossoms filled the world. Although Lian Yi was nowhere to be seen, there was a constant rumbling roar. At first it was weak, but as time passed it became increasingly intense.
It was impossible to see what was happening with the naked eye, but everyone could feel the violent and tyrannical oppression coming from these ringing roars.
It seemed that everything in front of him would be torn to shreds. Nothing in this world could stop his progress!
The Dragon Saint’s eyes were dignified. He thought that the old scholartree from the Western Mountain was really lucky to have such an outstanding son like Lian Yi.
Although the way they were born was different from a traditional sense, when they reached the realm of a Saint, their vision became broad and wide. They wouldn’t care about things like this.
If he said this person was his son then he was his son. No matter how this came to be, it was an unchanging truth.
He thought back to the peach garden. There wasn’t much to say about the eldest disciple; he was a true and proper monstrous genius. Even the Dragon Saint couldn’t figure out his origins and only had a rough guess.
The second child was a troublemaker and constantly wandered around, picking fights with others all day long. But in fact, one needed the ability to be able to do this. He had messed around for so long and hadn’t died, instead growing stronger and stronger. This was enough to prove how much of an abnormality he was.
Besides the two of them, there was also a White Phoenix, Azure Dragon, and a female devil who changed her face constantly and proclaimed herself to the world.
Today, it was the low-key and introverted Peachy. With her first move, she displayed the Ten Mile Peach Forest. This proved that she had traveled a long, long way on the path of space.
Putting aside the problem with Peachy’s body for the time being, the Dragon Saint suddenly felt sad. After Black Armor, his solemn East Sea couldn’t select a second person who could compete with Lian Yi and Peachy today.
Of course, if Yao’er hadn’t gone into seclusion, it wouldn’t be difficult for him to fight the two of them. Even victory and defeat would be a tossup.
But this wasn’t able to soothe the Dragon Saint’s sorrowful heart. Because no matter where he looked and counted, throughout the entire Dragon Palace only Yao’er could save a bit of face for him.
This was just too little!
Luck. Why is my Dragon Clan’s luck always so bad?
Of course it was luck. The East Sea Dragon Saint didn’t believe that his methods of teaching disciples were any worse than those of the peach garden or Western Mountain.
The Dragon Saint took a deep breath and slowly exhaled. His eyes settled on Qin Yu and his thoughts grew increasingly firm. This boy…he had to keep him at the East Sea!
Qin Yu, who was watching the battle, suddenly felt his heart chill. But when he looked up he didn’t sense anything strange at all.
Was that Sly Fate Clan cultivator looking at him?
That wasn’t right. Although that person’s cultivation base was good, it wasn’t enough to make him feel as if he had been locked onto by a hunter.
Behind the crystal wall, the Dragon Saint’s lips curved up. Your senses are quite sharp. Not bad, not bad. But with your cultivation you want to lock onto me? You are too naïve!
But at this time, the Dragon Saint’s complexion changed. Within the crystal wall, the giant dragon eyes swerved onto the peach blossoms hanging in midair.
Western Mountain Lian Yi!
He originally believed he had appraised this junior highly enough, but now he realized he was mistaken. He had now reached the edge of the Sea of Bitterness and could take that final step forward at any moment.
If he was slow it could be three to five years, and if he was fast it could be tomorrow. Lian Yi would then officially step into the Sea of Bitterness and open up his own Saint’s path!
Peachy was strong, but the person she faced was Lian Yi, who had reached the highest peak beneath that of a Saint. There was still a great disparity between them.
The disparity wasn’t that great. If this difference was placed on two normal cultivators, it wouldn’t be easy for one to dominate the other.
But Lian Yi was still Lian Yi. He was worthy of being the seed of that old scholartree. He was cruel to others and even more ruthless to himself. As long as there was even the smallest advantage, he would utilize it to its full effect.
Of course, doing this wasn’t without risks. The Ten Mile Peach Forest was still the masterpiece of that person. If he wasn’t careful then he would suffer a great deal.
But he won!
A moment later, the peach blossoms in the air began to break apart, one after another.
Lian Yi stepped out, his face pale and with a trace of blood on the corner of his mouth. But not only was he not dispirited, his aura had become even stronger!
He came to a stop and cupped his hands together, “Junior-apprentice sister, my apologies.”
He had won this fight!
