The Ancient Gods' Whisper-Chapter 973 - 454: The Return of the Candle Dragon Venerable! (Part 2)

Chapter 973: Chapter 454: The Return of the Candle Dragon Venerable! (Part 2)

In the ancient myths, it was said that a young monarch once heard a dragon roar that pierced the heavens at Buzhou Mountain.

His soul shattered on the spot, leaving only an empty shell of flesh.

That dragon roar was later known as the Candle Dragon Chant.

In an instant, Ji Ye vanished without a sound, reappearing behind the young monarch.

Bai Ze’s Forbidden Curse!

Her slender iron sword remained unscathed, and the surging sword wind swept away like a hurricane, engulfing the dark temple. The walls, dedicated to the gods of heaven, were cut into numerous fierce cracks. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

She took a deep breath, but exhaled a sharp sword wind, piercing through the darkness with one strike!

"Watch out!"

Ying Changsheng’s eyes changed abruptly, reminding: "That’s the ability of the Seventh Rank Qi Sect!"

The Seventh Rank of the Sword Sect Path is known as the Qi Sect.

Different from the Sixth Rank Sword Ghost, this stage greatly enhances the power of Sword Qi.

With one breath, Sword Intent penetrates the body, as mountain calls and sea roars!

That is the domain of the sword.

In that domain, one can only be smashed into pieces!

In such a dangerous moment, Gu Jianlin turned around, gently raised his right hand.

Time and space condensed like a prism, reflecting the raging sword breath, the sound of roaring tides suddenly resounded!

Bang!

The mirror shattered, and a surging sword breath burst forth like a tsunami!

The ability of a Sixth-Order Soul Master, Soul Mirror.

Two tsunami-like sword breaths collided, the domain of sword and sword roared and submerged.

At the critical moment, Ji Ye clasped his hands together, hoarsely saying: "Original..."

The ancient Ancient God’s Breath rioted, about to awaken in its exclusive Original State!

Just at this moment, a solemn, indistinct dragon shadow emerged in the darkness, overlooking from high above!

Boom!

In Ji Ye’s mind, the sound of collapse echoed, as the Ancient God’s Breath was frantically plundered!

The vague, violent black shadow flickered behind her but couldn’t manifest.

The surging sword breath was torn apart, and the high-pitched Dragon Roar came rushing forward.

It was Gu Jianlin’s blade, the fleeting afterimage piercing through the sword breath, a strike like a meteor!

This strike ruthlessly pierced Ji Ye’s left chest, blood sprayed like ink behind her.

Realizing that pinning status was unrealistic, she decisively changed strategy, as the Ancient God Clan soul inside her fell asleep, the human side took the lead, and the Candle Light Law forcibly awakened.

Unfortunately, Gu Jianlin had long shed the Ancient God Transformation power, his pupils flickered with brilliant gold, the blade entwined with fierce lightning, pushing her fiercely against the wall!

The violent electric current penetrated Ji Ye’s body, her eyes painfully rolled white, lowly growling: "Tang Yun!"

Despite seemingly ordinary, her low growl.

Tang Yun clutching her head began to tremble violently, her face flickering intensely.

Two completely different faces appeared intermittently.

Ying Changsheng was startled and frightened, knowing the girl’s two souls were in conflict inside.

That Tang Yun could maintain her sanity, was because the human side held the dominant position.

Ji Ye attempted to awaken the soul from the Bai Ze Clan, to impose absolute suppression!

In an instant, Tang Yun’s pupils exhibited a strange deep blue, raising the already broken iron sword, the trembling incomplete sword blade aimed at the boy’s back.

Everything happened too fast.

Ying Changsheng’s eyes were aghast; if he intervened now, he could only kill the girl from behind.

No alternative.

Gu Jianlin was naturally of utmost importance, the hope the President would preserve at all costs.

Yet Tang Yun was also an innocent girl, not deserving such a death.

Within a mere second, countless strategies flashed in his mind, yet his body had already rushed forth.

"Don’t worry."

Gu Jianlin turned around, forcibly awakening the two supreme powers within him at that moment. Half of his face was covered in brilliant gold, while the other half looked as sinister and terrifying as an evil spirit.

The traits of a human and those of the Ancient God Clan flickered and intermingled!

The Qilin Wedge trembled deep within his soul, and the Colorless Jade emitted an ethereal mist.

"Stand down."

His voice was calm, yet it seemed to carry immense authority, exploding like a clap of thunder.

Tang Yun’s mind was a chaos of booming sounds, as if she was witnessing an invincible deity. It was the most majestic decree in the world, even forcing apart the two souls within her. The evolution that combined the two forms of life was reversed, and the deep blue in her eyes abruptly dissipated before she was knocked unconscious by a sharp hand chop!

Ying Changsheng caught her limp body, and when he looked up again, he was stunned.

Because at this moment, Gu Jianlin was sometimes a golden-glowing human and sometimes a wildly savage Ancient God.

The power of the Candle Light Law and You Ying Law simultaneously manifested on his body.

That was the power of the Third Law!

Ji Ye seized the opportunity, her fingers like a sword, stabbing toward his back.

Gu Jianlin, however, suddenly turned around, grabbing her wrist and squeezing forcefully!

With a crack, Ji Ye’s wrist broke, her face twisted in pain. Her deep blue eyes still watched him, as though witnessing something incredible, filled with curiosity and longing for the unknown.

Yes, curiosity and longing.

Even though she was about to be defeated, it was as if she was witnessing a miracle.

"The Third Law, this is the power of the Third Law."

Ji Ye murmured softly, "So the Colorless Jade is in your hands. It seems you haven’t yet learned how to use it, nor do you know the cost of wielding such power."

A strange smile appeared at the corner of her lips as she whispered, "Why do you think our vessels were sealed?"

Gu Jianlin coldly looked down at her, but he was no longer in the darkness of the temple. It was as though he had arrived at the depths of a desolate planet, wrapped in a sun-bright Divine Tree, surrounded by withered black lotuses, with ethereal mist obscuring the past and the future.

Even as he stood, he felt the excruciating pain of a soul conflict, with his body splitting into ghastly cracks, leaking not blood but dense mist.

That was the side effect brought by the Third Law.

The past Gu Ci’an once used the Third Law but unfortunately, his body collapsed before he succeeded.

This environment was so illusory, yet so real.

Clearly an illusory environment, yet it seemed to have truly existed.

He wandered in the depths of the mist, seemingly abandoned by the vast desolate world.

At that moment, a clear phoenix song suddenly erupted in the silence!

In the darkness, a massive shadow soared toward the sky, like the flames of divine wrath igniting. The desolate world suddenly plunged into the abyss, burning every transgressive soul.

With eyes as severe and indifferent as a deity,

An overwhelming pressure enveloped Gu Jianlin, and he finally understood the meaning behind that earlier statement.

The vessels of the Bai Ze Clan were sealed because they were fleeing a certain existence’s pursuit.

As long as you use the Third Law, He will find a way to locate you.

And then... kill you!

The world rapidly receded, with everything shattered to pieces.

That terrifying Vermilion Bird was about to fall!

As the nightmare approached again, he suddenly heard a distant, ethereal voice near his ear.

"You shouldn’t have arrived here prematurely, little Qilin."

It was a voice that had once driven him to despair, accompanied by the rich aroma of Lan She perfume.

Beneath the golden Divine Tree, someone gently covered his eyes.

Her hands were so soft and tender, like the most beautiful jade in the world.

"You are not yet ready to bear the Third Law."

Breathing softly in his ear, her voice was both a nightmare and a celestial melody, ethereal and clear: "Without the protection left by the Qilin, it’s still too much for you to deal with the Vermilion Bird alone."

Gu Jianlin could see nothing, but he could feel the alluring and enchanting Blood-colored Supreme kneeling behind him, covering his eyes like a love-struck girl, whispering softly in his ear.

"Keep the Colorless Jade safe for me."

Her voice abruptly turned murderous and icy: "Wait for me to retrieve it."

The Blood-colored Supreme raised her head, as the ancient dragon pierced through the heavens and appeared within the mist, the space-time realm shattering with a roar.
