Chapter 132: The Return to the Void, Tidal Sound Tribulation
Amidst the roar of 120,000 ice coffins exploding at the bottom of the sea, the Chaos red string wrapped around Lu Qingyang's fingertip suddenly burst into sparks.
The sound waves from Su Meiniang's golden bell at the tip of her tail collided with the ice coffin fragments, actually congealing into nine layers of bronze chimes in the Return to the Void's black tide.
Each chime's surface was engraved with ancient secrets of Qingqiu Sky Foxes tearing at North Abyss Magic蛟.
"Little Lord's red string is even hotter than the Old Man of the Moon's marriage registry," Su Meiniang said, her fox tail entwining the chime's suspension chain.
Her innate Fox Fire, following the sound waves, burned towards Leng Yuehan's Guanghan Palace phantom.
The ice icicles hanging from the palace eaves suddenly transformed into pipa strings.
The Taiyin Soul Slaughtering Arrows that burst forth when the strings vibrated actually refined the Fox Fire into Netherworld Ghost Butterflies.
Leng Yuehan stepped on the Xuanming True Water and leaped onto the palace eaves, her Ice Soul Sword pointing at Lu Qingyang's glabella: "Deng Tuzi, how many Chaos Dao Seeds are you still hiding?"
The moment the sword tip touched his Heavenly Eye, seventy-two marriage scrolls suddenly appeared in the Void Realm.
The woman in each picture had a tear mole similar to the chaos bell fragments.
Lu Qingyang smiled and bit the sword tip, Chaos Qi climbing up Leng Yuehan's wrist along the sword body: "Fairy's Vinegar is stronger than the osmanthus wine of Guanghan Palace."
As he spoke, he suddenly tore apart three scrolls, the torn pages congealing into blood-colored yarrow in the Return to the Void's black tide.
"Su Jiejie, do you know this yarrow divination?"
"Qian above Kun below, the Heaven and Earth Hexagram of Obstruction," Su Meiniang said, flicking her tail to wrap around the blood-colored yarrow.
The sound waves from the golden bell at the tip of her tail actually refined the hexagram into a bronze divination plate.
"It truly corresponds to this desolate land of the Return to the Void..."
Before she finished speaking, the divination plate suddenly showed a scene of Xuanji Old Ancestor devouring Beiming zhi Zhu.
The Old Ancestor's glabella actually had a starry vortex, originating from the same source as the Chaos Heavenly Eye.
Leng Yuehan suddenly swung her sword, shattering the divination plate.
The splashing bronze fragments congealed into starry track chains in the Void Realm: "So my Moon Wheel Dao Scar is a starry shackle!"
The moment the chains broke, a scene of her previous life, where she gouged out her eyes as a sacrifice, suddenly flooded into Lu Qingyang's Heavenly Eye.
In the scene, the Ice Soul Sword held by Guanghan Palace Master actually resonated with the chaos bell fragments.
Nine Netherworld Fire suddenly rose from the bottom of the sea, and a scene of the North Abyss Magic蛟 entwining the chaos bell appeared in the fire.
The starry fragments embedded in the Demon Dragon's inverse scales were clearly of the same origin as Leng Yuehan's Moon Wheel Dao Scar.
"What a cycle of myriad tribulations!" Lu Qingyang suddenly tore open his clothes, the Chaos blood patterns on his chest transforming into three thousand tribulation fires that entanglement the starry track chains.
"Old Mud Loach refining the starry Dao Seed into a beauty's tribulation truly shows a deep understanding of the Dao of Yin and Yang harmony..."
The moment the tribulation fire touched the chains, the seventy-two marriage scrolls suddenly merged into a Chaos formation diagram.
The heaven severing sword sheath suspended at the eye of the formation spewed out Primordial Xuanhuang Qi.
Su Meiniang's fox ears suddenly perked up, the golden bell at the tip of her tail shattering three thousand miles of black tide: "The Zhao Yao Banner of Qingqiu Tomb is wailing!"
Her Sky Fox Dharma Idol, formed from her innate essence blood, let out a long howl to the sky.
The nine tails of the Dharma Idol were actually connected to the formation patterns of the Chaos formation diagram.
The sparks that splattered when each formation pattern cracked congealed into fragments of the Beiming Soul Devouring Pact in the Void Realm.
Leng Yuehan suddenly clutched her heart, the osmanthus flowers drifting from the Guanghan Palace phantom actually turning into blood-colored mandalas: "This is... a backlash from love poison?"
She swung her sword at the mandala flower cluster, and the moment the Sword Qi touched the petals, memories of her past life flooded in like a tide—in the scene, she personally plunged the Ice Soul Sword into the Celestial Sword Master's back, and the Chaos blood dripping from the sword's edge was of the same origin as Lu Qingyang's Heavenly Eye.
"Fairy's charm with this sword strike reminds Mr. Lu of the 'Nishang Dance' of the Hehuan Sect," Lu Qingyang said, flashing to grasp Leng Yuehan's wrist.
Chaos Qi flowed along her Meridians into her Dantian.
The Xuanming True Water suddenly boiled, and an Ancient Battlefield appeared in the water, where the North Abyss Magic蛟 tore at the Qingqiu Sky Fox.
The chaos bell fragment suspended in the center of the battlefield actually had seventy-two cave heaven formation patterns.
The bronze chimes at the bottom of the sea suddenly rang in unison, and the Return to the Void's tidal current, congealed from sound waves, swept the three into a spatial-temporal vortex.
At the depths of the vortex, the end of the starry track appeared, where 120,000 Reincarnations of Beiming zhi Zhu were devouring Chaos Dao Seeds.
With each one devoured, the starry vortex on Xuanji Old Ancestor's glabella grew an additional pupil.
"Little Lord, you might want to hold onto Concubine's tail," Su Meiniang said, her nine tails entwining the starry track.
Fox Fire, following the tidal sound, burned towards the spatial-temporal vortex.
A scene of her drinking with the Celestial Sword Master appeared in the fire.
The chaos pearl fragment that slipped from the Sword Master's sleeve perfectly matched the blood patterns on Lu Qingyang's chest.
Leng Yuehan suddenly swung her sword, splitting the tidal sound.
The ice crystals drifting from the Guanghan Palace phantom congealed into memories of her past life: "So my Ice Soul Sword is the chaos bell's soul-Soul-soothing Nail!"
The moment the palace gate opened, the seventy-two cave heaven formation diagram flew out from her Moon Wheel Dao Scar, its entwining starry track actually connected to Lu Qingyang's red string.
Lu Qingyang laughed loudly, tugging the red string, Chaos Qi congealing into a Yin and Yang fish in the Void Realm: "Old Mud Loach's Soul Devouring Pact has actually completed Mr. Lu's marriage registry."
He fiercely plunged the heaven severing sword sheath into the eye of the Yin and Yang fish.
The taotie pattern appearing on the sheath's body opened its mouth, devouring the starry track.
With each inch of starry track devoured, a corner of Leng Yuehan's Guanghan Palace collapsed.
Su Meiniang suddenly flicked her tail, wrapping around the collapsing palace bricks.
Fox Fire refined the bricks and stones into a Qingqiu Soul Suppressing Seal: "If the little girl from Guanghan Palace doesn't fall in love soon, I'm afraid her Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering!"
The moment the Soul Suppressing Seal pressed towards Leng Yuehan's glabella, her Ice Soul, which was gouged out in her previous life, suddenly flew from the Void Realm.
Sealed within the Ice Soul was actually half a remnant soul of Xuanji Old Ancestor.
"Good disciple, your master has waited 120,000 years for you to awaken this soul Seal!" The remnant soul manipulated the Ice Soul to stab at Lu Qingyang's Heavenly Eye.
The splashing Chaos blood suddenly congealed into a blood-colored chessboard.
The black and white pieces on the chessboard were both Reincarnations of Beiming zhi Zhu, and the phantom of the chess player held the complete chaos bell.
Leng Yuehan's Sword Qi raged, shattering the chessboard.
The Taiyin Soul Slaughtering Arrows, following the starry track, shot into the spatial-temporal vortex: "Old Demon, don't even think about manipulating my fate again!"
The moment the arrow touched the vortex, a colossal bronze gate suddenly rose from the depths of the Return to the Void.
The starry chains entwined on the gate ring were actually of the same origin as Lu Qingyang's red string.
"This is the true Beiming Soul Devouring Pact!" Lu Qingyang flashed and grasped the gate ring, Chaos Qi flowing along the chains into the colossal bronze gate.
The Xuanming True Water overflowing from the gate crack suddenly boiled, and a scene of him and the two women performing a marriage ritual at a Chaos altar appeared in the water.
Suppressed beneath the altar was a Fusion of the Qingqiu Sky Fox and the North Abyss Magic蛟.
Su Meiniang's fox tails suddenly burst into nine innate soul fires, and a prophecy from before the Celestial Sword Master's demise appeared in the fire: "On the day the chaos bell rings, the three lives' love poison will congeal into a tribulation sword..."
The golden bell at the tip of her tail shattered the soul fire, and the splashing sparks actually congealed into a blood-colored marriage certificate in the Void Realm.
The birth characters on the marriage certificate perfectly matched Leng Yuehan's Moon Wheel Dao Scar.
Leng Yuehan swung her sword at the marriage certificate, and the moment the Sword Qi touched the vermilion characters, memories of her past and present lives surged like a tide: "So my Inner Demon Tribulation is..."
She suddenly paused, the sword's reflection showing herself plunging the Ice Soul Sword into Lu Qingyang's heart, and the blood drops dripping from the sword's edge actually transformed into chaos bell fragments.
The colossal bronze gate at the bottom of the sea suddenly opened, and the tidal sound of the Return to the Void surging from within swallowed the three.
The stardust floating in the tidal water congealed into Xuanji Old Ancestor's complete Dharma Idol, and the Zhou Tian Star Cauldron held in the Old Ancestor's palm had Karma lines entwined around its body, which were actually interwoven with Lu Qingyang's red string.
"What a great net of Karma!" Lu Qingyang tugged the red string, entwining the starry sky cauldron, and Chaos tribulation fire, following the Karma lines, burned towards Xuanji Old Ancestor.
The Old Ancestor's Dharma Idol suddenly exploded into 120,000 soul threads, each thread entwined with the Reincarnation memories of Beiming zhi Zhu: "You thought the Soul Devouring Pact was just an Inner Demon Tribulation?"
Leng Yuehan suddenly conjured the treasure of Guanghan Palace, and the Moon Wheel Mirror reflected the truth deep within the soul threads: "These Reincarnations... are all my past lives!"
The moment the mirror shattered, the silver blood surging from her Moon Wheel Dao Scar suddenly boiled, and an ancient scene of the North Abyss Magic蛟 devouring the Qingqiu Sky Fox appeared in the blood water.
And embedded in the Demon Dragon's inverse scales was precisely her innate Ice Soul.
Su Meiniang's nine tails suddenly plunged into the Return to the Void's tidal water, Fox Fire refining the blood water into a Qingqiu Reincarnation Banner: "If Little Lord doesn't unseal the Soul Devouring Pact soon, Concubine might have to enter Reincarnation with your paramour's title!"
The banner's surface showed the secret of her and the Celestial Sword Master jointly exploring the Return to the Void.
The ancient demonic script carved on the banner's bone just before the Sword Master's demise was actually of the same origin as the Chaos blood patterns on Lu Qingyang's chest.
Lu Qingyang suddenly tore the Reincarnation Banner, the banner's fragments congealing into a Chaos chessboard in the Void Realm: "Old Mud Loach has used heaven and earth as a board for 120,000 years, but he doesn't know the true tribulation piece is here!"
He flicked his sleeve, scattering seventy-two blood-colored chess pieces, each piece sealing a remnant soul of Beiming zhi Zhu.
The moment the chessboard formed, Leng Yuehan's Ice Soul Sword and Su Meiniang's golden bell suddenly fused, transforming into the chaos bell's clapper.
"When the bell rings, it will be the day Karma is recast!" Xuanji Old Ancestor's remnant soul rushed out from the starry sky cauldron, and the sparks bursting from the cauldron's body refined the Return to the Void's tidal water into Primordial Xuanhuang Qi.
Amidst the surging Mother Qi, a scene of the primordial Chaos opening appeared, and the phantom holding the clapper actually had the same Chaos Heavenly Eye as Lu Qingyang.
Leng Yuehan stepped on the starry track and leaped towards the clapper, the Taiyin Soul Slaughtering Arrows drawing a Guanghan Restriction in the Void Realm: "If Deng Tuzi dares to betray this Karma..."
The moment the arrow touched the clapper, a scene of her previous life, where she gouged out her eyes as a sacrifice, suddenly flooded into Lu Qingyang's Heavenly Eye.
At the end of the scene was the moment Xuanji Old Ancestor plunged the Ice Soul Sword into the chaos bell.
"What a tightly woven killing game!" Lu Qingyang laughed loudly, grasping the clapper, Chaos blood staining the Primordial Xuanhuang Qi along the clapper's body red: "It's a pity Old Ancestor miscalculated the taste of love poison..."
He fiercely struck the chaos bell, and the starry track shattered by the bell's sound suddenly congealed into myriad tribulation Karma lines, their ends all submerging into Leng Yuehan's Moon Wheel Dao Scar.
Su Meiniang's fox tail wrapped around the shattered starry track, the golden bell at the tip of her tail ringing out the Qingqiu Netherworld Curse: "Little Lord's bell sound is even more alluring than the Hehuan Sect's love potion..."
The moment the curse touched the Karma lines, a colossal bronze coffin suddenly rose from the depths of the Return to the Void.
The ancient demonic script carved on the coffin lid was actually devouring Leng Yuehan's silver blood.
The moment the coffin opened, Lu Qingyang's Chaos Heavenly Eye suddenly shed blood tears: "So the third Dao Seed is her!"
The blood tears fell into the coffin, reflecting the true appearance of the married woman at the end of the starry track—the woman's glabella had a Moon Wheel Dao Scar of the same origin as Leng Yuehan, but in her hand, she held Su Meiniang's innate golden bell...
