Chapter 46: The Fall of the Dao
“It’s you!!” How could Wan Ruicai not recognize Zhishi? Even if Zhishi turned into ashes, he would still be able to recognize this hateful woman.
“…” Zhishi did not respond to Wan Ruicai but looked at the half-closed door.
She frowned, “I didn’t expect such a thing to appear.”
The manifestations of the malice of the Heavenly Dao vary, but this time it is indeed a bit scary.
At least from the appearance of this twisted phenomenon, it is disgusting enough.
“How did you get in here!?” Wan Ruicai saw that Zhishi ignored him and instead looked at the pile of corpses, and asked guiltily, “Answer my question! You witch!”
“Hmph, you are really annoying.” Zhishi gently shook the bell wrapped around her hand.
The dense fog dispersed, and the figure of Teng Snake gradually became clear from the haze.
This time, Teng Snake’s size was not as huge as when it carried the entire Tianyan Sect family, but it was just right to move flexibly in this room.
It flicked its tongue towards Wan Ruicai, its body swaying in the dense fog, its eyes full of ferocity.
Zhishi could hide her killing intent well, but Teng Snake would not.
Seeing Zhishi summoning her shikigami without a word, Wan Ruicai immediately took out his magical weapon.
However, holding a folding fan in this manner was indeed a bit incongruous.
Zhishi silently rushed towards Wan Ruicai together with Teng Snake. Previously, Wan Ruicai had the opportunity to use spells because the space was too large.
Now, in the small underground chamber, how could she give Wan Ruicai the chance to use spells?
Teng Snake bit Wan Ruicai, and then Zhishi directly kicked Wan Ruicai’s magical weapon away with the first kick, and the second kick fiercely struck his dantian.
“Let go of me!” Wan Ruicai burst out his spiritual energy, forcing Teng Snake to release its mouth.
He retreated in embarrassment, staring at Zhishi, “You killed all the disciples of Qingshan Sect outside!?”
After realizing that no one had come to help him for a long time, he began to have this suspicion.
“So what?” Zhishi said indifferently.
The life and death of the Qingshan Sect disciples had nothing to do with her.
If the Qingshan Sect disciples hadn’t come for her, she wouldn’t have cared.
But since those disciples had formed an array to attack her, she naturally wouldn’t hold back.
“Crazy!” Wan Ruicai gritted his teeth and said, “I will tell everyone what your Tianyan Sect has done!”
“…” Zhishi, a person of few words, borrowed the power of Teng Snake and leaped towards Wan Ruicai.
The dense fog around Teng Snake was drawn towards Zhishi by an invisible force, covering her body.
Although Wan Ruicai knew that this fog would dissolve spiritual energy, he could only use spiritual energy for defense now. Besides that, he had no other means of defense.
Unfortunately, as expected, Zhishi easily shattered the spiritual energy shield.
The moment the soul shield shattered, it made a sound like glass being smashed, echoing in the dim underground chamber.
“Cough, cough…” Wan Ruicai fell to the ground, sliding a long distance, coughing up pus-filled blood.
The walls of the dark room were not sturdy. As Wan Ruicai slid a certain distance and hit the wall, it caved inwards.
Fortunately, the wall was thick enough not to collapse from such an impact.
If the walls of the underground dark room were kicked through, the load-bearing parts would also be compromised.
“Why do you want to kill me…?” Wan Ruicai covered his mouth, but blood still flowed through his fingers.
He couldn’t understand why Zhishi showed such terrifying hostility towards him. The only possible reason he could think of was Youlan.
“I promise you, I won’t have any more bad thoughts, I won’t do anything to Youlan anymore.” Wan Ruicai said in a panic.
“Youlan is only a small part of the reason,” Zhishi said calmly. “The main reason is that I don’t want Tianyan Sect to deal with troublesome things in the future.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she threw a set of punches at Wan Ruicai.
The Teng Snake followed Zhishi’s movements, dancing in the thick fog, but every move exuded a dangerous aura.
Wan Ruicai used his spiritual energy to retrieve the folding fan on the ground, then raised a wind wall, hoping to buy himself some time to escape.
Unfortunately, if he couldn’t find a way to deal with the thick fog, he had no chance of winning against Zhishi.
The simplest way to deal with it was to suppress Zhishi with his realm, but Wan Ruicai’s realm was not higher than Zhishi’s.
The wind wall suddenly disappeared under the gentle caress of the thick fog.
With the only barrier gone, Wan Ruicai’s fate was sealed.
After Zhishi’s final punch sent Wan Ruicai flying, the Teng Snake opened its bloody mouth and swallowed him whole.
But soon, the Teng Snake encountered some problems. A large number of blood-red minerals appeared on its body.
These minerals spread from the corners of its mouth to its body, seemingly about to devour it completely.
“Crack——” With a crisp sound, the Teng Snake disintegrated into characters and then dissipated into the air.
This scene meant that the technique forming the Teng Snake had completely collapsed.
After the Teng Snake disappeared, Wan Ruicai was spat out.
However, the cloth that covered his body fell to the side due to the intense battle.
The places Wan Ruicai had previously covered were all filled with blood-red minerals, and his skin was severely shriveled, with necrotic limbs appearing black and blue.
But the most terrifying part was that a second head had grown beside his neck.
“Wow… wow ah ah ah ah ah…” The underdeveloped, shriveled head let out a groan, sending chills down one’s spine.
“Damn it ah ah ah ah! Don’t look! Don’t look over here!” Wan Ruicai said in horror as he noticed the cloth covering him had slipped off.
He fiercely waved his folding fan, creating several wind blades.
Without the Teng Snake, Zhishi could only use her body technique to dodge these wind blades.
But while she was dodging the wind blades, Wan Ruicai hurriedly escaped through the crack in the ceiling.
With the help of the wind, he effortlessly flew upwards and passed through the opening.
Previously, the Teng Snake had hindered his escape, but now that the Teng Snake had disappeared, Zhishi could no longer stop Wan Ruicai.
“Teng Snake!” Chisato suddenly shook the bell and shouted.
But soon she realized that her spiritual energy was not enough to support her to summon the shikigami again, so she could only watch Wan Ruicai leave with a heavy heart.
She gave up chasing Wan Ruicai and turned to look at the “tree” made of corpses in that small room.
Compared to Wan Ruicai, this side needed to be dealt with first.
No matter what form the malice of the Heavenly Dao took, she had only one way to deal with it.
“Exterminate.” She murmured, as her spiritual energy turned into white mist and surrounded the horrifying tree of corpses.
“Burn to ashes.” As the words fell, a raging fire ignited in the white mist, burning it to ashes bit by bit.
The tree of corpses let out a scream, as if countless people were being burned.
“Dao’s Fall.” But with the last sentence, these screams also disappeared in the flames.
