Chapter 739 Primeval Fairy Butterfly

“Back then, the master spared his life. I didn’t expect that he would so ungrateful and attack us again… What should we do? If the candidate selection for the Holy War were spoiled, we would be held guilty,” the first light figure said angrily.

The second figure shook his head and said, “Our master is so powerful that he can predict everything like a god. How can we know what he is thinking? Back then, our master let go of him for a purpose. Maybe our master didn’t expect him to change from an evil creature to a good one, but had other plans. Maybe he has foreseen everything that happened today.”

The first light figure froze for a moment and then nodded thoughtfully.

After a while, he said, “But we can’t let him go on like this. I’m afraid that the next Starry River Boundaries won’t stop him for too long. There are still four to five thousand living creatures of the Human Clan and the Demon Clan in the divine tower. If the tide of the spirits of the dead caught up with them, no one would be able to escape…”

“Well, we just need to delay his entry into the final divine temple and finish the candidate selection for the Holy War. The other matters are not important.” The second light figure thought for a moment and said, “As for those ordinary creatures who failed to break through the “Starry River Boundary” and lost their qualifications for participation in the Holy War… Teleport them to the Dark Palace. Whether they can survive or not will depend on their luck.”

“Teleport them to the Dark Palace? Well, the master was kind-hearted and didn’t want killing at will. If he were still alive, he would definitely do the same thing.” The first light figure agreed to the proposal.

Suddenly—

Bang!

The small illusion mirror, which was showing the tide of the spirits of the dead in front of them, was shattered without warning.

The two light figures were taken aback by the accident.

“How could he have become so powerful?”

The two of them were shocked.

“Listen, what’s that sound?”

Lu Tianhua and the others, who were desperately rushing to the 200th floor, suddenly heard an extremely strange sound coming from behind them.

Lu Tianhua was seriously injured, and his face was sallow. He listened carefully for a while, and suddenly the look on his face changed abruptly. He said, “Oh no, they are the monstrous spirits of the dead… They have broken through that Starry River Boundary. Damn it, it’s terrible…”

The looks on the faces of the other Human Clan experts also changed instantly.

Before entering the “Towering Buddha Pagoda”, they had all experienced the horrors of those spirits of the dead. They had seen with their very own eyes that the spirits of the dead killed some people violently and brutally. In the Sea of Opulent Buildings, spirits of the dead were already terrifying. Now their Qi and power were being suppressed in the tower, and once they encountered those spirits moving like tides, they would end up being killed.

What should they do?

Everyone’s mind went blank.

It was too late for them to escape. While their strength was being suppressed, their running speed would be absolutely no match for that of those spirits of the dead moving as fast as lightning.

But if they stayed for a fight, there would still be no chance for them to survive.

No matter what they were to do, they would die anyway.

“You hurry up and leave. I’ll stay and try to stop them… ” Lu Tianhua said with a wry smile. He could manage to use the “Blood-coagulating Twin Swords”, and there was still some Qi in his body that he could activate. If he stayed at the exit of the spiral staircase, perhaps he could hold on for as long as the time for a cup of tea.

The other Human Race experts exchanged glances and shook their heads.

Surprisingly, had calmed down by this time.

One of them gritted his teeth and said, “You alone can’t hold on for too long. Hey, we’re going to die anyway. Why don’t we just stand against the enemy and fight the good fight together!”

“That’s right. Let’s go all out against this group of monsters.”

“It’s just death. Hahaha, it’s not worth mentioning.”

Everyone else echoed.

While they were talking, there came a loud bang sounding like the bursting of a water pipe, and countless green spirits of the dead instantly swarmed out from the exit of the spiral staircase. These spirits, which were much like splashing liquid, roared and poured toward the dozens of Human Clan warriors.

“Let’s fight till the end!”

At this moment, all of them were ready to let out the strongest power that they could muster.

Perhaps they would die the next moment.

Having been forced into such a desperate situation, these heroic martial artists would not back down or be frightened.

Boom!

In the strong wind blowing straight in their faces and the jade-green flames, countless spirits of the dead instantly turned into mist, dodging the attacks of the warriors, and then they re-condensed into visible forms. The weapons in their hands were just about to strike onto the bodies of the martial artists.

There were too many of them.

In an instant, they drowned all the martial artists like tides.

Lu Tianhua closed his eyes with a bitter smile. As warriors who had wandered on the verge of life or death many times, they were not afraid of death when they engaged the enemy. Unfortunately, they would die at the hands of such a group of monsters. It was a pity that they could not serve their purpose and win glory for their clan…

Lu Tianhua silently sighed.

After a while, the imagined feeling of death did not come.

The deafening, shrill howling sound in his ear suddenly disappeared without a trace.

He slowly opened his eyes.

In front of him, there was a slightly dark space in which the shadows of people were moving about. The look on everyone’s face was extremely strange. Many people still kept their eyes closed, waiting for death, just as he did a moment ago.

“Where… am I?”

Lu Tianhua was stunned.

The terrifying spirits of the dead had disappeared, leaving no trace.

The three days had finally come to an end.

Ding Hao stood quietly on a huge platform on top of the white stone pillars, which was about the size of a small square, waiting for the arrival of the teleportation light column.

The Evil Moon and the black puppy each occupied one of Ding Hao’s shoulders.

“It’s time… The 18th candidate, get ready to enter the final divine temple!”

As expected, the mysterious, cold, and noble voice sounded on time.

In the next moment, the long-awaited silvery light column appeared like the Milky Way of the Ninth Heaven, enveloping Ding Hao in it. Then the range of light was distorted, and his figure disappeared in an instant.

A weightless sensation, which was like the feeling one had during time travel, came over him once again.

Ding Hao felt as if he had returned to that horrifying black hole. The time that the silver light column took for this teleportation was much longer than that for the previous dozen times of teleportations between the “Holy Battlefields”. Moreover, this time he could feel the distortion of his body and divine senses more clearly, as if he were constantly leaping through time and space and entering an extremely mysterious place.

After some time that a cup of tea would take, the teleportation was completed.

Ding Hao opened his eyes and saw soft light in front of him.

“Meow, it’s so beautiful…” The Demon King—Evil Moon could not help exclaiming, and his eyes had turned into the heart shape.

The scene in front of him was much like an illusion.

Everything was covered in misty, milk-white sacred light. Ding Hao and others now should be in a garden. In the front was a rippling pool of water, and there was a fountain from the beautiful statue of the Nine Heavens Mystic Fairy. She held a white jade bottle high above her head, and a water line like silver silk was spurting out from the mouth of the bottle, with colorful refracted rays under the sunlight from the outer space.

In addition to the pool and the Nine Heavens Mystic Fairy fountain, there were all kinds of garden statues around. They were beautifully sculptured with superlative craftsmanship, looking as if they were alive in the silvery light.

The season here should be between the end of spring and the beginning of summer. The flowers were blooming, attracting the fluttering fairy butterflies that looked like flower elves.

These fairy butterflies were not afraid of humans. When they saw Ding Hao and the others, they even flew over flipping their beautiful wings and landed on Ding Hao’s palms.

“These are primeval fairy butterflies, a unique species that has already gone extinct in the outside world!”

Ding Hao was shocked.

He recognized the origin of these butterflies. They were fairy butterflies from the primeval time.

It was said that this type of butterfly had a divine and mild nature, and they were previously known as one of the most beautiful species between heaven and earth. They dispersed pollens, which could enable many magical herbs and precious medicines to advance and even become heavenly treasures. In the primeval time, many super powers kept this type of fairy butterflies to culture supreme divine medicines.

According to legend, there was once an emperor of the primeval fairy butterflies who had cultured true divine medicines, shocking the entire wilderness.

However, as the times changed, the tides of power between heaven and earth changed, and the atmosphere between heaven and earth faded and weakened. The environment was no longer for the survival of the fairy butterflies. In addition, numerous large-scale holy wars took place between the Human Clan and the Demon Clan, plunging the living creatures into misery and suffering. Countless super powers could not escape the fate of being annihilated in the catastrophe. In the end, the primeval fairy butterflies gradually went extinct amidst the chaos of war.

At the present moment, even the specimens of this type of fairy butterflies were very difficult to find.

Ding Hao didn’t expect that he would see such a mysterious species here.

“Meow, little butterflies, you are so cute. Why don’t you play hide and seek with me?” The Evil Moon tried hard to put on a lovely look. After this Demon King recognized the identity of these butterflies, his first reaction was to take a few fairy butterflies away by deception. In this way, he might be able to culture some divine medicines in the future and then take these medicines to become an immortal.

“Whoosh! Whoosh!”

The primeval fairy butterflies flapped their wings and flew away.

“Hey? Don’t leave… Can’t we make friends with each other? If you don’t give me face, I may swallow you because you look so delicious. You’d better watch out…” The Demon King suddenly got angry and tried to intimidate the fairy butterflies with open fangs and spread claws.

A fairy butterfly about the size of a palm flapped its wings at the Evil Moon with no hurry.

A pink mist fell on the Evil Moon’s face.

“Meow, I can’t bear this. You damned moth, how dare you fart at me? I’m going to eat… Uh? Achoo… I’m going to… Achoo… Achoo… ” The Evil Moon, who had completely exposed his nature as the Demon King, couldn’t help sneezing the moment he was about to fight back.

The black puppy covered its eyes with its claws because it did not want to see this embarrassing scene.

“Achoo, I… Achoo, achoo, achoo…” In the end, the Evil Moon couldn’t even utter a complete word. He kept sneezing until his eyes were filled with tears and he got a running nose.

“Meow… I was hit… Achoo… The demon’s spell… Achoo… Damn it…” The Evil Moon could barely speak because of continuous sneezing.

Ding Hao laughed so hard that his stomach hurt, but he felt surprised.

Since the time the Demon King—Evil Moon followed Ding Hao, he had swallowed numerous natural treasures and the divine souls of many experts, gone through dozens of evolutions rounds in a row, and had been struck by lightning dozens of times. Now his strength had reached the level of a high-ranking human in the Martial King Realm. In terms of the speed of self-cultivation, he was probably faster than Ding Hao. Unexpectedly, the seemingly gentle primeval fairy butterfly taught him a lesson in this way.
