Chapter 341

Wild Life and Death Energy

Red formation patterns flitted across the walls in the room. Mu Yu’s black and white qi overflowed in the room, wiping out everything in the room but the black qi, white qi and walls reinforced with a formation.

“Dark herb is as dangerous as always,” remarked Feng Haochen.

“Relax. The life qi and death qi can’t simultaneously bring down the formation I cast,” reassured Xie Bulao, rubbing his sixth finger.

Rumble! To Xie Bulao’s dismay, the life qi and death qi violently assailed the walls in an attempt to break free. The two qis were doing their own thing instead of recollecting! They assumed the forms of fiend beasts and constantly assaulted the walls.

“Okay, I didn’t see this coming.” Xie Bulao reinforced his formation with astral scriptures.

“Ku Mu!” Feng Haochen joined Xie Bulao in the reinforcement endeavour.

Ku Mu: “I don’t have enough spiritual energy. I spent a lot of Purple Glow Ultimate Jade stopping Xie Bulao’s spiritual qi last time and had to return it. I need someone to help me!”

“Cheng Yan, Lie Shang, lend Ku Mu a hand!” cried Feng Haochen.

Xiang Nan jumped in, as well. Unfortunately, they lacked the formation knowledge to help. Ku Mu drew a small formation on the ground, entrapping himself within. Though fatigued, he instructed Feng Haochen’s disciples, “Pour your spiritual energy into this formation, and I’ll be able to use your spiritual energy!” At the same time, Ku Mu began reinforcing Xie Bulao’s formation with scriptures.

Cheng Yan and company struggled to keep up with the spiritual energy demand.

The walls began to crack. The life qi and death qi slamming against the walls began to dent the wall. The number of cracks and their lengths rapidly increased.

“You might as well have waited for him to die before telling me! He’s going to die at this rate!” Xiaoshuai jumped through the red formation and death qi to land on Mu Yu’ shoulder. He had Mu Yu bask in his spiritual qi to repair the latter’s damaged dantian.

Mu Yu’s brows started to relax. He needed to separate the nine qi soul purifying flowers to surprise the wild life qi and death qi. The problem was the energy around was too overpowering.

“Punctured Sword, come out already!”

Xiaoshuai tugged Mu Yu’s cosmos sleeve and dragged Shadow Splitter Sword out. The green wood spirit’s vibrations forced the life qi and death qi to retreat. It tried to absorb Mu Yu; however, Mu Yu resisted and communicated, “I can’t give up. If I’m distracted, the life qi and death qi will go out of control.”

The wood spirit shook itself in protest and turned its tip to Xiaoshuai. Serious, Xiaoshuai instructed, “I know what you’re thinking. Absorb the death qi, and I’ll figure something out to handle the life qi.”

The wood spirit positioned itself in the field of death qi and absorbed the qi into its holes. Unlike previous times, the holes didn’t mend themselves. Instead, the death qi transformed into various fiend beasts and gnawed the sword until black streaks were left on it.

In the same time frame, Xiaoshuai twirled his tail. The life qi he collected attempted to vanquish him. Fortunately, his body was too tough for the qi to penetrate. He couldn’t reduce the life qi’s power as the wood spirit could. All he could do was calm the rampant life qi to minimise its impact on Mu Yu.

Thanks to the duo, Mu Yu could finally move his hands to work on nine qi soul purifying flower. He willed the frail flower into the air. The leaves autonomously broke off and changed to black or white. They glided in the air similarly to a fish chasing its tail. The black leaf headed to the white life qi. The white leaf headed to the black and murky death qi. The two forced a yin and yang symbol.

The nine qi soul purifying flower guided its black petal into becoming a rotating centrifuge that ushered the white life qi into itself. The white leaf ran an identical process. Mu Yu’s black and white eyes returned to normal. Dark herb had made its exit.

The qi riot ceased. In front of Mu Yu was a hand-sized light. On his left was white mist, where the black vortex was. On his right was the black mist, where the white vortex was active. The vortex had the qis chained to themselves.

Xiaoshuai stood on the wood spirit that no longer was an entity of life but a combination of corruption and life.

The successful separation of life qi and death qi didn’t alleviate Mu Yu. To the contrary, he hit rock bottom as his dantian was pierced...
