Countless thunderous booms came out from behind the clouds and reached the ears of everybody on the ground.
Yet, the clouds didn't change at all. They still looked like a gray blanket, blocking the whole sky. As a result, the people couldn't see the fight that didn't belong to the human world.
All of a sudden, a bulge appeared at the bottom of the clouds, and then it began to rotate, turning into the shape of a tornado and moving toward the palace.
Along with the whistling wind, Lian Sanyue shot out from the patch of clouds and headed toward the grand hall of the royal palace at a high speed.
As she was about to land on the roof of the grand hall, she stopped short and stood on the roof.
The ocean of clouds rolled up and down, and then a path appeared.
Bai Ren's white dress was tousling, devoid of any dust or bloodstain. It was a stark contrast to Lian Sanyue, who was covered in blood.
"Though you have a part of my fairy energy in your body, you don't have the fairy awareness; how can you defeat me?" she said this calmly while looking at Lian Sanyue.
The fairy awareness was the awareness. However, the fairy people who had ascended had surpassed the scope of Chaotian and stood in a higher state. As such, they had a more complete understanding of the lower world, and they could see all the details.
If Chaotian could be described as an Aoyama, the ascendants could see the outline and shape of this mountain when they came to the sky, and they could also see all the details on the mountain, like the manor caves, the trees and the more minute objects.
For a Cultivation practitioner like Lian Sanyue, no matter how powerful she was, it was hard for her to know what the mountain looked like, and it was hard for her to know that there was an unknown manor cave not far away from her.
Looking at this mountain, the Fairy Lady Bai Ren knew where she was.
She was in the mountain, but she couldn't tell where Bai Ren was in the sky, and she couldn't even tell how far she was.
The difference in the level of awareness would make a significant difference.
Lian Sanyue couldn't hit the Fairy Lady Bai Ren in the fight that day, and she was knocked down from the sky by her opponent again and again. It was because her opponent had an overwhelming advantage in this aspect. If her body hadn't been healed by the endless fairy energy, she would have been dead a long time ago.
Even though she was still alive and able to fight, the wound in her body could break out at any moment. If the situation persisted, she would die sooner or later, and death would be her final defeat.
Lian Sanyue's black hair tousled slightly, her countenance nonchalant. The golden fairy energy came out from her body.
Seeing this, Bai Zhenren, Bu Qiuxiao, and the other Cultivation practitioners were all shocked and surprised.
Why was there so much immortal energy in her body?
Lian Sanyue disappeared from the grand hall and came before Bai Ren.
Along with her came countless rays of morning light.
It seemed that she intended to use the method she had used to deal with the Immortal Tan and Jing Jiu earlier. She used the Heaven-Human Connection to control the movement of Bai Ren and then launched the most violent attack.
Even though the space on the square of the royal palace was broken, it still could not stop Bai Ren. She was a real fairy, and she could see countless paths that people in the mountains could not see.
The ribbon fluttered in the wind and disappeared in the next moment.
Bai Ren appeared behind Lian Sanyue and pointed her finger at her.
Her fine fingertips released great radiance, as if they were pearls. Terrifying immortal energy was contained within.
It seemed that Lian Sanyue had guessed that Bai Ren would appear behind her. Lian Sanyue turned around to face Bai Ren, her black hair tousling again.
Bai Ren pushed her finger forward and hit the center of Lian Sanyue's brows precisely with a "pah" sound.
Boom boom boom boom! Countless claps of thunder resounded in the square!
The eunuchs and ministers who had fainted were jolted awake. They looked confused, not knowing what had just happened.
Countless Qi waves rushed out in all directions, like tens of thousands of war horses, the momentum was astonishing. The Imperial City's great array collapsed upon contact, and the already dilapidated palace walls on both sides collapsed in an instant!
Lian Sanyue landed on the ground, but she didn't fall down; she was still standing.
The cobwebs on the ground finally connected into one.
Accompanied by the extremely ear-piercing sound of rocks rubbing against each other and the sound of heavy objects pressing against each other, smoke and dust flew in all directions. The entire square of the palace actually sank by one foot!
Unexpectedly, the Fairy Lady Bai Ren had also landed from the sky. She was still standing in front of Lian Sanyue, her fingertip still touching the center of her brows.
A drop of dark red blood gradually flowed out from between his eyebrows, like a cinnabar mole.
Lian Sanyue said while staring into Bai Ren's eyes, "Welcome to the mountain."
After saying this, the drop of blood suddenly shone brightly. Immortal energy rose and enveloped the two of them inside.
She had forced out all the fairy energy in her body.
The fairy energy kept on attacking Lian Sanyue's body through Bai Ren's finger.
The expression in Bai Ren's eyes changed a bit; she didn't understand why Lian Sanyue wanted to do this.
It took Bai Ren only a brief moment to figure it out. As she was about to pull back her finger, she found that she couldn't do so. The fairy energy in this body and the fairy energy in Lian Sanyue's body had the same origin, and they were even from the same person. They were naturally close to each other, and they didn't want to separate from each other when they met; all they wanted to do was to merge with each other again.
Bai Ren drifted backward. She intended to pull her fingertip away from the center of Lian Sanyue's brows; but she couldn't pull her finger away from the center of Lian Sanyue's brows because of a very thin thread.
The thread looked like gold or jade, extremely sticky and tenacious; it was formed by the essence of the fairy energy.
"The zither has fifty strings … I don't know how to play it. I only need one string."
Lian Sanyue didn't know how to play the zither. Back when she participated in the Plum Meeting under the name of Guo Dong, she played only one string.
She had employed the Endless Sword style of Qingrong Peak to release her fairy energy; of course, it was a sword style that she had modified.
Before the fairy energy in Lian Sanyue's body completely disappeared, Bai Ren's fingertip couldn't be pulled away from her.
Bai Ren looked at her expressionlessly.
"This move is called the Flower in the Mirror and the Moon Reflected in Water."
Having said that, Lian Sanyue's entire body turned illusionary as she thrust her palm toward Bai Ren.
It was unclear whether the Flower in the Mirror and the Moon Reflected in Water referred to the movement or the palm strike.
This palm strike looked quite ordinary, like a gentle breeze brushing the willow branches. It couldn't be compared to the fists she had used to strike Kou Qingtong's body.
Bai Ren had tempered the Fairy Book for many years at the Zhongzhou School. The body of Bai Zao, which Bai Ren had occupied, had been modified over a long period of time. Like Lian Sanyue's body, it was almost immaculate and unharmed, so it was hard to injure him, to say nothing of such a casual palm strike.
The expression on Lian Sanyue's face was as mild and mild as this palm strike, but it was also exceedingly serious.
Pah!!!
The palm landed on his chest.
Bai Zao's body shook slightly.
His hair tousled.
The ribbon tousled.
The cloth tousled.
All the objects drifting in the air emitted a few green glows.
The green glows left Bai Zao's body and drifted further away, gradually forming a human figure.
The human figure suddenly emitted a golden glow, surrounded by the fairy energy. It was none other than the replica of the Fairy Lady Bai Ren!
There was a burst of surprised screams in the royal palace.
The crowd was extremely shocked.
Lian Sanyue had used such a simple palm strike to knock the Fairy Lady Bai Ren out of Bai Zao's body.
How did she do it?
…
…
I've always wanted to write this part of the plot as the one where the Ancient One hits someone, but I can't think of a reasonable explanation. I've been revising the ending of the Qing Dynasty recently. Though I haven't reached Mount Dadong yet, I've suddenly thought of the method the Qing Emperor used to hit Ku He.
