Behind the door of consciousness, Luo Yue is once again controlled by the formation of souls. The soul proudly recounts the past, the old man they dealt with that night and the present Luo Yue, no; the look in his prey's eyes is so similar. However, after saying these words, the soul still sighed, "Unfortunately, you may have to go down there to join him today. If you have any last words, tell me quickly."
Luo Yue is not convinced, but remembers the promise his grandfather made to turn the death cocoon in his hands into a butterfly. But now, trapped in the formation of souls, as the other party said, in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he will become a companion of the soul, or see his grandfather in another world.
"No, that won't happen." Luo Yue closes his eyes and recalls the scene before he set off that day.
Grandfather stood in front of two groups of people and announced the upcoming mission, "Since you have chosen to come here, you must remember the mission of the knight. Our position is firm and stubborn. Even if we are really forced to fight to the death, we cannot yield. Do you understand?"
Two teams of people and horses with determined eyes, all saying in unison, "Understood." Immediately, Fire made preparations in the main hall before setting out.
"Grandpa, it's been a long time since you took me to see a book. How about explaining the meaning of those words you just said?" Little Luo Yue jumped down from the lord's seat behind Grandpa and ran over to grab his hand.
"Our little Luo Yue really loves to learn, but this time, Grandpa has to go on a mission. I will definitely make it up to you when I come back, okay?" Grandpa was very pleased with his granddaughter's eagerness to learn. On his seat were the books he had read with Luo Yue today, but he seemed to have a special premonition: it seemed like this might be the last time he could spend with his granddaughter.
"Grandpa, every day I hope you can spare some time to be with me, or practice with me, even if it's just playing with me, or just being by my side. Is that what you meant by stubbornness?" Luo Yue's pure and watery eyes turned in Grandpa's eyes, and Grandpa instinctively hugged his granddaughter and said firmly, "Yes, that's the stubbornness of family affection. You said it very well."
Luo Yue is holding her grandfather's arm, taking out a thread from the waistband and asking him: "Grandpa, when can you fulfill your promise to help me make butterflies?"
Grandfather chuckles and says, "Oh, kiddo, I'll never go back on my word! Just wait till I get back, it'll be quick, okay?"
Luo Yue's expression falters for a moment, but her doubts quickly dissipate because her grandfather has never gone back on his word. "Okay, I'll wait for you to get back!"
The grandfather and granddaughter's last moments are frozen in time until the grandfather gently puts Luo Yue to sleep, then turns around and takes off his jade bracelet, putting it on Luo Yue's left hand: "Break the cocoon, actually you're going through something. That's a rebirth experience, full of ups and downs. Luo Yue, your grandfather may not be able to help you."
Before closing the door, the old man mumbled something under his breath, then gently shut the door. As the group set off, he never returned.
It wasn't until that thunderous news reached the father's ears that Luo Yue, who had been eavesdropping in the house, had already reached the age of Cultivation. At this moment, Luo Yue had begun to take on the appearance of an adult; her childhood short hair had transformed into a ponytail, her facial features were more defined, and her large eyes remained unchanged. However, a brief sadness had added a touch of determination to her tears after some time.
"Grandpa, I have reached the age of Cultivation. Don't worry, I will remember all the Teaching from these years. When the cocoon breaks and flowers bloom, I will create it with my own hands," Luo Yue said with a hint of a sob, putting away her childhood death cocoon, gradually transforming into her current self.
The soul was quite surprised; three incense sticks' worth of time had passed, and Luo Yue remained unscathed. In fact, under the soul's perception, her golden vitality even showed signs of rising against the odds.
"Did you not want to hear my story of breaking out of the cocoon? Six Hen's soul, now I can tell you the answer!" Luo Yue clenched her fists, rapidly concentrating her vitality, seemingly ready to break through the formation.
The soul was alarmed; how could an inexperienced child know any principles? Moreover, something like Break out of cocoon and become a butterfly, which even it had yet to fully comprehend from human texts during its journey to become Six Hen, was beyond this girl.
"If there is an absolute dead end, one must experience life and death in all directions! This is also a saying from books. You use death; memories and overwhelming power create a dead end. If the dead end defeats me, then it is no longer a dead end. If I walk out from this condition, that is the dead end you have achieved. Because of your blasphemy against humanity, you are destined to become ink in my pen!" Luo Yue declared as she continued to amplify her output of vitality.
"It seems you are indeed tenacious. Our initial conversation can be disregarded; you heroes really are all the same," the soul said with slight impatience as it increased the intensity of the formation. However, unexpectedly, a sudden surge of vitality struck forth, shattering the formation and raising clouds of dust.
Behind the door of consciousness, Luo Yue opened it. It turned out that the death cocoon was indeed an absolute dead end; only strong willpower could explain that stubbornness she had shown in front of her grandfather during childhood—one does not give up until the very end.
The death cocoon seemed to resonate with Luo Yue's spirit at that moment. Memories and her recent perseverance illuminated the death cocoon behind that door. A golden light shone upon Luo Yue, accompanied by a shout.
Indeed, new vitality, new strength gradually dispelled fatigue and pain, even allowing Luo Yue to momentarily forget how the seal had taken away her vitality. Behind the door of consciousness, the death cocoon was blooming like a flower!
In an instant, the death cocoon finally bloomed, and a golden butterfly emerged from the cocoon, with full wings and powerful fluttering. The golden light symbolized purity, momentarily illuminating the area centered around Luo Yue, leaving the soul helpless.
"Do you have any strength left? Good, I'll accompany you for a good fight! Let you depart in peace!" The soul rallied, gathering malicious thoughts into a ball of light, waiting for the seemingly fragile butterfly to strike.
Awakening once again after the Woxin Fist, a severe pain swept through the body. Yu Long knelt before Shang Qing, still tightly gripping Shang Qing's left leg. "I advise you to let go. Today, I spared you, not for you to appear before me like this," Shang Qing coldly glanced at Yu Long, not hearing any response - even though he had fainted, he was still using his last strength to hold on.
Shang Qing pushed away his arm, sealing him with another kind of barrier at vitality, and then Fire opened the area. As for Yu Long, he experienced a long dream...
"It looks like you're going to be my follower forever," said little Shang Qing proudly as he stepped on a stone. Below the steps, Yu Long was being punished for not completing the teacher's course.
"Don't be too proud too soon. Do you understand what it means to take your time and do things carefully?" Little Yu Long spoke defiantly, but the reality was clear in their life at the Trial grounds: just in the recent monthly footwork practice, the teacher had asked them to pick the walnuts in front of them within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. The side with more walnuts could earn an extra day off, while the side with fewer walnuts would have to attend extra classes the next day.
Without hesitation, little Shang Qing waited for the teacher's command and immediately activated his vitality to rush out. With his exceptional footwork and vitality skills, little Shang Qing had already surpassed the same group of students, but it seemed that he was not satisfied with this.
On the other hand, little Yu Long was slightly inferior. As a student who entered the school at the same time as Shang Qing, although he was diligent and inquisitive, the saying "hard work pays off, who needs talent" was proven true. When the time of the incense stick ended, Shang Qing won by crushing 36 walnuts compared to Yu Long's 21, so the next day the entire hall's cleaning naturally fell on little Yu Long.
"You talk about taking your time and doing things carefully, but aren't you still sweeping the floor now?" Little Shang Qing laughed heartily, and before little Yu Long could respond, he saw a figure. In the blink of an eye, Shang Qing immediately quickened his pace and ended up in a day of sweeping alongside the arriving master due to his arrogance.
The dream of memories is always so beautiful, but the loud words "It looks like you're going to be my follower forever!" have always stayed in Yu Long's heart, until he opened his eyes again in Shang Qing's boundary.
Even under the reversal of the Five Elements boundary, under the restricted conditions of vitality, Shang Qing himself would also be affected, but even so, the two of them engaged in such a prolonged battle. And Shang Qing momentarily had the upper hand, which made Yu Long shiver when he thought about it.
" Shang Qing, how big of a secret are you hiding?" Yu Long dusted himself off and stood up.
The boundary seemed to sense Yu Long's awakening and dissipated on its own. It was really unexpected that Shang Qing had this trick up his sleeve, but what was the purpose of it? Yu Long temporarily had no answer.
Although Shang Qing was nowhere to be seen, it was not wise to chase after him recklessly. It was better to find his own students first. Suddenly, Shang Qing's hair was blown by an unknown airflow, and he immediately turned around. It turned out that Fire was not far from him, and a few patrolling evil spirit were chatting about something.
"It looks like an opportunity has come," Yu Long thought. If it was a patrol, they would definitely be familiar with the surrounding situation. These guys must belong to a certain evil spirit's Commander, so the information around them, the current situation of the students, and the situation of the enemies around the five seals might be a little clearer!
Yu Long If you don't do it, you won't stop. Immediately stepping out of the barrier, I activated the Giant Wood Xuanhuo. For a moment, the earth shook and the mountains swayed, making several evil spirits who were planning to rest a bit impatient. However, when the dust settled, the evil spirits who were preparing to fight also relaxed their guard - perhaps it was some lazy guy who had returned here!
Tian Qian: Butterfly Dance
The soul quickly regained its composure, it was just a momentary emotional outburst. A low-level Four-Phase Hero trying to defeat me, it's simply ridiculous!
Luo Yue is no longer passively defending, but has chosen to take the initiative to attack, using the dragon-shaped footwork with a golden attribute to lower the body and search for the soul's defensive loopholes. With the assistance of the spear fist and the not-so-sophisticated "Chasing the Moon" technique, Luo Yue instantly moved in front of the soul and pushed it back with a punch.
The soul sneered, surprised by Luo Yue's strength, but still remarked, "Good strength, but to defeat me, you still have a ways to go!" The soul wasted no time and gathered violent intentions at his knees, almost striking Luo Yue's abdomen. Fortunately, Luo Yue reacted in time, using the "Horse Stance" to support the soul's pursuit.
Luo Yue struck the soul's knee and immediately dodged the soul's two finger attacks aimed at her eyes, which were as sharp as short knives. The dark purple evil intentions momentarily shook Luo Yue's heart.
The soul continued to pursue, and as Luo Yue flipped, she used the "Phoenix Nesting" technique to strike the soul's head, using her vitality to repel him. As she landed steadily and was about to breathe, the soul's counterattack immediately arrived. Luo Yue attempted to defend with the "Picking Spear" technique, but it was a feint. The soul dodged the punch, caught Luo Yue's forward momentum, and delivered a fierce palm strike to her chest, sending her flying with its dominant force.
Over time, Luo Yue figured out the soul's tactics and decided to switch strategies. Before embarking on the mission, she trained alone with Ran Xing once again, learning the close-range "Inch Punch" technique, which was also demonstrated by Teacher Yu Long. It should be useful in dealing with the soul!
The attack of the soul is coming one after another, this time, just like Luo Yue just started, the spear-like fist method is coming straight towards Luo Yue.
Luo Yue imitates Ran Xing's technique, holding his breath, his hands are like two doors, divided into inside and outside. The inside of the hand corresponds to the inner door, and the back of the hand corresponds to the outer door. Taking aim at the position of the soul, Luo Yue immediately blocked the attack with the outer door, then immediately twisted the soul's arm upwards, seizing the opportunity to concentrate his vitality and strike with a punch while the soul was distracted with both hands, which proved to be effective.
The soul was pushed back more than ten steps, almost falling to the ground. When he raised his head again, Luo Yue's continuous suppression had already reached him. Under the onslaught of the violent punches driven by vitality, the soul was feeling suffocated and struggled to stand up.
A butterfly gradually shimmered with a golden light behind Luo Yue, growing larger. Yes, Luo Yue's first Golden Swordsman technique was truly used at this moment.
"Sky Dryness: Butterfly Dance!" Luo Yue shouted loudly, and the light instantly illuminated the entire forest. The huge butterfly turned into millions of small butterflies, converging into beams of light and rushing towards the soul. The soul hurriedly resisted with evil intentions, unexpectedly blocking the sudden and fierce attack for a while.
Luo Yue was starting to feel a bit overwhelmed, but at this point, he couldn't stop. The concerns he had been worrying about kept surfacing in his mind: Where are his friends? Where is Teacher Yu Long? What should he do next?
One thing after another came to mind, especially Ran Xing's encouragement in the darkness, which made Luo Yue once again let out a shout that shook the valley. The beam of light condensed by the butterfly pierced through the barrier of the soul, and the explosion made the entire valley tremble. Luo Yue won, his soul had been shattered by his own Tianqian: Butterfly Dance, and everything in front of him became blurry, and he was about to fall down. Suddenly, a broad and powerful shoulder seemed to be leaned on by himself, and the world suddenly went dark in front of his eyes...
