Chapter 550: Tian Yu Split Apart
The sudden attack caught Tian Yu off guard.
However, he reacted quickly. A shadow fell across his face and he raised a hand to slap the sword away. The two mighty forces collided and exploded in all directions.
The shock from the explosion was not the same as water cancelling out fire. They were, after all, a collision of two Laws. The shock was enough to cause space distortion and destroy everything in its path.
Tian Yu let out an involuntary cry while staggering backwards. A hole had appeared in the middle of his palm. This was not surprising as Ye Shuanghan was the most powerful out of everyone present.
Although he was tricked and fell into Loveless Dao he nevertheless had consumed Qin Chuyue’s Emotional Seed so it was no wonder he was more powerful than the three elders who got themselves tangled in a love triangle.
Coupled with the fact that Tian Yu was caught off guard, it was inevitable that he would be injured.
Tian Yu’s eyes narrowed and stared daggers at Ye Shuanghan. It must be the lollipop. “It was careless of me to think you have no more cards to play,” he said in a low voice.
Ye Shuanghan held on to Qin Chuyue and looked into her pale face. His eyes were red and wracked with guilt.
“I’m sorry, Chuyue.”
“I know you weren’t yourself, Shuanghan. You don’t need to be sorry.” She was just happy he had snapped out of whatever spell he was under.
Suddenly, Qin Yue coughed. “Sorry for cutting short your reunion but how about we save the sweet-nothing for later and defeat the enemies first. Not to mention, my sister is still bleeding so we should really do something about that.”
The words achieved the intended effect and the two lovebirds turned their focus back to the urgent matters at hand.
Ye Shuanghan looked at Tian Yu with a steely fierceness. “You don’t know the true meaning of love, Master! What you think is love is only your excuse to cover the ambition and guilt in your heart!
“True love brings out the best in all of us. It gives us unimaginable power and courage. Just like how Chuyue was willing to give up everything she had to save me.”
“You don’t know anything! I don’t need you telling me what love is!” said Tian Yu with a rigid smile barely concealing his anger.
“Listen to him! He’s right, you don’t know the true meaning of love,” said Qin Zhongshan.
“They’re right. You don’t know at all!” chorused Shi Ye.
“I think so too,” added Big Elder.
“Hahaha, that’s nonsense!” laughed Tian Yu. His eyes were bright red and it seemed like he had entered into a manic state. Suddenly, his laughter turned into sobs.
He felt there was a hidden meaning in their words but he did not know what……
The stabbing pain in his heart made him go crazy.
“Don’t for a second even think this is the end of me!” Tian Yu’s aura was chaotic like a torrential rain. His narrowed eyes sparkled manically as if he was very close to having a screw come loose. “Today will be the day you all die!” he said in a low voice.
He took out the caterpillar, opened his mouth, and slowly lowered down into this mouth. He remembered it was only two days ago he was worried about how fat the caterpillar was getting and that he would choke on it. Now it was the diameter of an earthworm so he did not have to worry about the risk of choking.
“I wasn’t planning on doing this but you have incurred my wrath so prepare to reap what you sow!” He let out an angry roar before giving them a blood-lust smile. “My good discipline, it’s time for you to repay me for all that I’ve done for you. Activating Heart Devouring Bug!”
Ah ——
Ye Shuanghan’s face suddenly changed while his blood vessels dilated with the sudden increased blood flow causing blue veins to pop up. His aura drastically weakened and he began wasting away. His eyes were bloodshot with the immense pain he was feeling.
At this moment, Tian Yu’s aura became correspondingly elevated at this moment and a great Qi flowed around his body. The Qi was thickening moment by moment and manifested into mist making the surrounding hazy.
“So this is what being all-powerful feels like! I can’t get enough of it.”
Tian Yu’s previous fury had been replaced by a deep calm. His simple and unfazed eyes looked towards everyone, as if he had completely transformed his life. It was a kind of lofty gaze, looking down from up above so high.
Qin Zhongshan’s face sank. “I was right to think that you were only using Ye Shuanghan as a vessel.”
“Yes, it’s just as you’ve said,” said Tian Yu unhurriedly. Then he gritted his teeth. “My original plan was to collect more Luck before swallowing his Dao but…… It was you all! You all force me to do this.”
Although Tian Yu’s strength increased rapidly, he would have to suffer a painful backlash with each attack he gave out. This was all because he did not consume enough Luck.
“The plan I was carrying out for years was ruined because of you all! I’m going to kill you all!”
He raised his palm to face the group and although the movement was subtle, Qin Zhongshan and others found themselves shrouded in endless terror. The space they were in seemed to be separated from the rest of the world and there was a chance they could be annihilated any time.
“Hold on!” Qin Zhongshan’s expression changed drastically. A raging wave surged through his whole body and he erected a protective barrier over the rest of the group.
Boom!
Tian Yu’s palm print landed on top of the protective barrier like a mountain. The people underneath the barrier bounced around like a rubber ball before landing crushed on the ground. The ground outside the protective barrier split wide open, swallowing up all the mountain, river and trees.
Qin Zhongshan and the rest of the group came up from the ground. Looking down on this area from a high altitude, a chasm spanning thirty thousand mile and three thousand deep had opened up.
Bleh!
Qin Zhongshan and Big Elder received all the force from the blow. Their faces were as red as the blood they vomited out and their eyes were starting to lose their shine.
All anyone could feel right now was shock and despair. Tian Yu was strong, too strong!
At this moment, Tian Yu is infinitely close to the Heavenly Realm. If not for the fact the attack happened on the Area of the Gods, if it was another place like somewhere on the human world, the planet would have been completely destroyed.
“I’m strong, so strong! So this is how it feels like to be the master of the universe and control life and death with my own two hands. I’m…… invincible now!”
Tian Yu hovered horizontally over the void. His hair was spread out all around him and his eyes shone with invincibility, knowing he could do anything to Qin Zhongshan and the group.
Qin Zhongshan’s face was pale. “Shi Ye, quickly take Chuyue and Yun away from here!” he said hurriedly.
“I’m not leaving without you,” said Qin Chuyue. She was holding Ye Shuanghan’s hand and she alternated her gaze between the Qin Zhongshan who was vomiting blood and Ye Shuanghan who was in immeasurable pain. One was her father, the other the love of her life. They were both dying — What’s the point of her staying alive?
Her eyes shone with tears and she bit her lips with determination. “Uncle Shiye, take Qin Yun along with you.”
“I’m not leaving too! If you’re staying, I’m staying!” said Qin Yun without hesitation. “Uncle Shiye, you should go.”
“Like h*ll I would!” said Shi Ye. He slowly got up and unleashed what little power he had from his heavily injured body. His face was full of determination. “Let me clear a path for all of you before I die.”
“How naive for you all to think you can come out of this alive,” mused Tian Yu with a smile on his face. His aura was still increasing and cracks were starting to appear at where he was standing, as if he was in a black hole, just like the embryonic form of a world.
This was the kind of power that was strong enough to open up the world!
“Love and feelings, what nonsense! I would grant you all a quick death for the fact we used to be in the same sect together. Goodbye forever!”
He raised up his hand again as if he was giving out his judgment and the second palm print appeared from high above them.
Gasp!
The space fabric around Qin Chuyue and the rest of the group started to split apart before the palm print even landed on them. Cracks started to appear and the force alone was enough to cause blood to spew from Qin Zhongshan, Shi Ye and Bid Elder’s mouths. The protective barrier was beginning to dull from the damage!
The gap between their powers was too big.
Qin Chuyue looked at the scenes still being broadcasted in a loop around them. She narrowed her eyes and said, “Shuanghan, I’m not scared of dying as long as you’re by my side and we are surrounded by scenes from our love story.”
Ye Shuanghan held on tightly to her hands and watched the broadcast with her. “I love you, Chuyue,” he said softly.
Everyone turned their gaze towards the impending giant palm print. They were strangely calm as if they were a small, lone boat waiting to be capsized by a freak wave. A deathly eerie silence surrounded them and they stayed frozen in place.
It was at exactly this moment, the TV set suddenly gave off a golden glow. The screen that was originally jumping around in static changed into an endless blue ocean. There was no ripple on the mirror-like surface.
It was the Suffering Sea.
“The TV…… It……”
The unexpected change shocked everyone.
Suddenly, a lone boat appeared on the sea.
A young girl was sitting on the boat with her hands put together as if in prayer. “O Suffering Sea, it was said everything could be bought with money. How about love? Can you give me my true love if I give you a coin?”
She tossed the coin into the sea and a glint bounced off it.
However, the coin changed its course and shot out from the TV screen. Its speed was too fast and was able to cut through time and space. It had already surpassed the Laws of the Universe. It aimed straight for the giant palm print still in the air with great will.
There was no great collision, no loud sound, but only a soft hum when it pierced easily through the giant palm print. It did not stop until it shot through Tian Yu’s palm.
Blood shot out from the space between his brows and cracks started to form on his face, travelling down to his whole body.
There was no movement from him except for the widening of his eyes. His face was full of disbelief.
“I’m splitting apart?”
