Chapter 789: Chapter 787: The Key to Unlocking the Chance for Immortality

Longka was trapped in the ice mountain, his body pierced by ten ice swords, while Yun Xue’xue dared not be careless.

Longka was the Twenty-four Solar Terms Envoy, not merely a simple title.

His name symbolized power.

He wouldn’t just die like this, nor would he lose so easily.

Sure enough...

"Bang!"

The ice mountain trapping Longka exploded instantly.

The white banner in Longka’s hand emitted a faint glow, enshrouding his wounds.

The wounds pierced by the ice swords on his body gradually healed in plain sight.

The banner in Longka’s hand also had the ability to mend flesh.

As long as it’s not a fatal blow, he always has a way to survive.

Longka was Qingming, while Yun Xue’xue’s magic was Dongzhi.

They were of the same level of magic, with no distinction between strong and weak.

The key to victory here was the battle between Longka and Yun Xue’xue.

Yun Xue’xue frowned slightly and attacked again.

She opened her palm, causing a layer of frost to cover the ground within a kilometer radius.

Yun Xue’xue made a grasping motion, and the ground frost exploded.

Massive flowers bloomed on the ground.

Each petal possessed the ability to destroy everything.

At this moment, she fully unleashed her magic.

Centered around Longka, the ice flowers bloomed.

At this point, Longka could not evade.

Either his body would be pierced by ice flowers, or he’d have to block the attack.

Longka planted the white banner into the ground, using hand manipulation.

The white banner liquefied and condensed into a doll.

Upon closer inspection, this figure was identical to Yun Xue’xue’s appearance.

Like a miniature version of Yun Xue’xue.

Longka raised his hand, causing rainwater beside him to gather into silver needles, which he then inserted into the legs of the black doll.

"Thud."

In the distance, Yun Xue’xue felt intense pain in her right leg, prompting her to instinctively kneel in agony.

This is Longka’s most formidable technique, the soul-targeting spell within Qingming magic.

Using the white flag to form Yun Xue’xue’s soul, then piercing the soul with needles.

Yun Xue’xue would endure tenfold the pain.

Normally, no one could withstand this.

Longka initially thought Yun Xue’xue would cease her attack after such formidable aggression.

But surprisingly, Yun Xue’xue persisted with her magic.

Longka watched attentively as the ice flower was about to bloom beneath his feet.

Longka quickly swung his right hand, shooting dozens of water needles through the chest of the black shadow doll in front of him.

The moment the water needles pierced through the doll’s chest.

"Splurt!"

Yun Xue’xue spat out fresh blood from a distance.

Her face flushed red, she clenched her fists tightly, veins bulging.

She gritted her back teeth, enduring the excruciating pain.

"Is she really okay?" Longka was astonished.

At this moment, he even doubted if Yun Xue’xue was devoid of pain.

"Bang!"

The ice flower bloomed beneath Longka’s feet, petals penetrating his body, blood flowing onto the ground along the ice flower.

Longka’s expression was filled with unwillingness as a grey mist emerged around him, healing his injuries.

Longka’s magic targeted the soul, while Yun Xue’xue’s magic was purely destructive.

Longka took the black doll and motioned as if peeling the skin, slowly stripping the doll’s skin.

In the distance, Yun Xue’xue’s body trembled.

So painful, it was as if she were experiencing being skinned alive.

The pain was so intense she wanted to pass out.

Yet Yun Xue’xue endured.

At this moment, Longka’s magic flaw became evident.

His soul-targeting magic seemed ineffective against Yun Xue’xue.

Longka saw that Yun Xue’xue could still hold on and committed another excessive action; he broke the doll’s foot.

Then, along the foot, he snapped the limbs.

Yun Xue’xue bit her silver teeth, her mouth stained with blood.

The pain was overwhelming to the point of fainting.

Yun Xue’xue couldn’t even make a stepping motion.

She made a fist towards Longka.

"Splurt!"

Ice pillars passed through Longka’s body.

One of the ice pillars even penetrated Longka’s head.

This blow directly incapacitated Longka.

Yun Xue’xue’s body fell straight to the ground.

Seeing Longka lose his ability, she completely relaxed.

It wasn’t that Longka’s magic was ineffective on her; Yun Xue’xue endured it through sheer willpower.

"Mo Lin, it’s up to you now."

Yun Xue’xue slowly said while looking in Mo Lin’s direction: "Don’t lose!"

As she finished speaking, her eyelids were too heavy, unable to open, and unwillingly closed her eyes.

Yun Xue’xue completely fainted.

"Splurt!"

The Cyan Cloud Sword slashed through the air, severing Longka’s head with a single cut.

Longka died just like that.

The Twenty-four Solar Terms Envoy had fallen.

After completing these actions, Mo Lin headed straight to West Mountain.

Luo Xiaoxiao and Yun Xue’xue had already paved a path for Mo Lin.

From now on, no matter what happens, Mo Lin has to handle it himself.

Moreover, he must endure.

The sky of West Mountain.

There, a black tumor-like entity pulsated.

It didn’t seem like something good just by looking.

Mo Lin prepared to first destroy this tumor.

"What’s destined to happen will happen."

A deep voice sounded, following the voice’s direction, there stood a young man.

This was an Evil Buddha.

Dragon Slayer Arhat.

"Mo Lin, what is your purpose in coming to West Mountain?" the Dragon Slayer Arhat asked Mo Lin slowly, wearing a kasaya.

"To extinguish the Evil Buddha." Mo Lin replied coldly.

"Evil Buddha?"

The Dragon Slayer Arhat said coldly: "What gives you the right to define us as evil?

In your heart, what is justice?

What is evil?"

"Get lost...don’t talk nonsense." Mo Lin didn’t even want to hear the Dragon Slayer Arhat’s prattle.

What justice and evil are they arguing about with Mo Lin here.

Mo Lin was not inclined to listen to his argument.

"Why do you insist on making enemies with us?" the Dragon Slayer Arhat questioned Mo Lin again.

"You invaded the human realm, killed people, harmed others."

Mo Lin casually gave an answer.

Indeed, there are other reasons still.

Evil Buddha killed Mo Lin’s friends, and they wanted to kill Mo Lin.

This was the real reason Mo Lin was determined to extinguish the Evil Buddha.

"Invade?"

The Dragon Slayer Arhat said coldly: "You summoned us here.

How can it be said that we invaded?"

Mo Lin’s mind jolted.

Summoned?

Who summoned them?

Previously in Yanjing, everyone said it was an Evil Buddha invasion.

No one ever mentioned that Evil Buddha was summoned.

"And it was you who asked us to kill and offer sacrifices.

We merely fulfilled the agreement, why call us harmful?" the Dragon Slayer Arhat countered with Mo Lin again.

Mo Lin quickly sorted the information in his mind.

Summoning Evil Buddha was a possibility indeed.

There was a time when people sacrificed lives to summon Celestial Gods into the human realm.

This was a disparity in information.

When the Evil Buddha arrived in the human realm, Mo Lin was at the lowest tier of the East District.

At that time, Mo Lin couldn’t access the higher-ups, his news was blocked.

It was natural Mo Lin didn’t know this information.

After all, Mo Lin isn’t a god, aware of everything.

"You destroy us, ruining decades of plans of the East District.

Those people won’t let you destroy us." The Dragon Slayer Arhat said coldly to Mo Lin.

"Those people? Who are they?" Mo Lin asked back.

"The Twenty-four Solar Terms Envoy, all seeking opportunities for immortality, won’t allow you to destroy us."

The Dragon Slayer Arhat spoke slowly to Mo Lin.

"Do you know what we represent?

We are the key to unlocking immortal opportunities.

If we die, the chance of immortality will never surface."
