Chapter 1018: Chapter 478: Opportunity to Turn the Tables_3

"""

The Lu Shu Ancestor’s demonic-like body oppressed the earth, staring down at every insignificant ant.

As if he didn’t regard anyone at all.

If this continues, the Lu Shu Ancestor will annihilate them.

Gu Jianlin was inexplicably agitated; he had reasons to survive, people he must protect, so many things he needed to investigate, unresolved grudges, and enemies he hadn’t yet killed. No matter how powerful the Ancient Ancestors were, how could they keep him here? If he couldn’t pass this obstacle, what future could he speak of?

But if this continues, the plan of the King of Qing and the Red King will fail, and they are likely to die.

His teammates would also perish here.

Including the girl in his arms and at home.

Especially his senior brother, still in the frontlines.

Gu Jianlin had tried everything to no avail, as the depletion of spirituality left him powerless; even drinking Blue Blood would only result in his strength being drained again in an instant, rendering it meaningless.

What to do, what to do, what to do.

His thoughts whirled.

This was supposed to be the feud between Jing Ci and the Lu Shu Ancestor, yet it inexplicably reminded him of that woman.

Both suffering from memory loss, whether intentional or not.

Both ended up as enemies.

Unsure of what feelings his senior brother was harboring as he fought.

Gu Jianlin didn’t know how he’d feel seeing that woman again.

Hatred?

Perhaps, but more so a feeling of hopelessness after being deceived.

Indeed, he harbored some resentment towards her for going against him when he most needed help and companionship.

But upon reflection, hadn’t he also been wary of her?

Ultimately, they had never trusted each other, and Gu Jianlin had merely met someone who shared the same plight, hoping that everything she said was true and they could fight alongside each other against destiny.

But sadly, Skylark was indeed an excellent actress.

She fooled him, and even herself.

The so-called meeting of fate was nothing more than a meticulously crafted deception.

Thus, the feelings that had once emerged were extinguished amid the clashing of swords with the past.

A vast illusion manifested before Gu Jianlin, and in a daze, he returned to that desolate Divine Ruins, with that mesmerizing woman looking down at him mockingly.

In a flash, she became that blood-red Ancient Dragon spanning heaven and earth.

A mirage of an incomparably beautiful visage with a smile both enchanting and cruel.

"You are used to having me by your side."

She mocked, "Without me, what will you do?"

"Go away."

Gu Jianlin summoned all his strength to dispel the hallucination from his mind, shattering the illusion violently.

Yet at that moment, a faint possibility crossed his mind.

To verify this possibility, he breathed fiercely with absolute anger, enveloped by the fierce light of the Candle Light Law, as the Ancient God’s Breath surged, revealing the secret of the Third Law once again.

Come, devour my spirituality!

The terrifying visage of the Lu Shu Ancestor loomed over, akin to a giant inspecting an ant, with breaths like thunder.

It was about to engulf him.

Under its looming shadow, Gu Jianlin seemed inconsequential, yet his gaze showed no fear.

At that moment, the Lu Shu Ancestor’s breathing abruptly halted, its immense and terrifying body flowed with an enigmatic mist, and a sound akin to collapse echoed within.

Gu Jianlin realized he had won the gamble!

"Yes, you guessed right."

Huai Yin said with a smile: "My student is the most perfectly evolved being so far, mastering the supreme Third Law. Although the Lu Shu Ancestor is noble, by comparison in the domain of the Third Law, it’s merely a crude creation. My student, naturally, can suppress it. If he realizes this, he can create a turning point in the battle."

"Of course, due to the vast rank difference, my student isn’t a significant threat to it."

He shrugged: "Yet the Lu Shu Ancestor attempted to devour his spirituality, which is just asking for trouble, isn’t it? Of course, this is because Da Can’s domain is indiscriminate and uncontrollable. This is the weakness of the Lu Shu Ancestor, a secret our Master whispered to us when we were twelve."

"Did you think we couldn’t predict the Lu Shu Ancestor’s arrival?"

Jiang Yanli lazily smiled: "With the Lu Shu Ancestor’s strength, to dominate us, it must exert its Authority. Yet in doing so, it reveals a flaw."

The corpse gazed expressionlessly at the brothers, finally showing a hint of seriousness in its eyes.

Huai Yin gestured: "All it takes is that tiny flaw. Jing Ci has the chance to turn the tables."

Jiang Yanli stretched lazily, smiling: "That’s the cost of imperfection."

Rumble.

An indistinct, collapsing boom echoed from the rooftop.

The Lu Shu Ancestor held two bloodied men in his hands, raising them to the sky.

Just as judgment was about to fall, its face twisted violently; what was a cold and merciless deity became a bewildered and helpless little girl, and its overwhelming might dissipated abruptly.

Jizi Chuan rasped: "Hey, Jing Ci."

Jing Ci said nothing, once again raising his trembling hands, closing the index fingers and thumbs of both hands.

Click.
