Hell Emperor.

Chapter 499 Ye Jie-Rescue
"Hmm...did he escape?"

In the Taiyin land, with the fall of the Purple Sky Divine Thunder, the battle was also declared over.

Xia Wei stood in place, gasping for breath. It was not an easy task for her to summon such supreme divine thunder. If an ordinary immortal at the third level used this move, before destroying the enemy, he would suffer severe backlash and even drain all the immortal energy in his body.

But Xia Wei still stood here. With the blessing of her innate magical powers, she was willing to overdraw her strength and burn her immortal energy to kill the enemy here. Even though she was on the verge of going crazy, she never wavered.

Unfortunately, Douxu Star Lord still escaped. Under the bombardment of the Purple Sky Divine Thunder, he dragged his severely injured immortal body, opened the Gate of Heaven, and disappeared inside the gate without any trace. Even though the power of the Purple Sky Divine Thunder was shocking, it could do nothing to him as he had disappeared without a trace.

Seeing that there were no more enemies around, Xia Wei's tense body finally relaxed. She half-knelt on the ground, feeling that her possessed immortal energy could no longer be suppressed. It was as if a wild bull was rampaging inside her body, and her whole body was about to be torn apart.

"I am just one step away... With this Marigold, I can escape from here and return to my master..."

Although it was unbearable, Xia Wei became excited when she thought about what was waiting for her. With the Marigold, she could travel across the world and reunite with her family.

"According to the process of refining magic weapons, next, I need to apply my blood essence on this divine ship..."

Xia Wei leapt up and flew onto the deck of the Marigold. When she landed, her steps were unstable and she almost fell to the ground. This was almost impossible for her, who usually walked steadily.

She pondered over her master's past teachings. Although the Marigold looked quite large and over two hundred feet long, in essence it was still a magical tool for practitioners to travel by. It was just that due to its excellent texture and the use of a variety of precious materials, it had the ability to travel across the universe, and was ranked as a third-grade artifact.

The original owner of the Marigold had fallen at the hands of Xia Wei. If one wanted to control this divine ship, it would need to be refined again.

She bit her finger, and bright red blood dripped from her fingertips. Just as she was about to use it to refine the Shenzhou, a cold wind suddenly blew, and the blood froze into ice before it hit the ground. When it fell, only a crackling sound could be heard.

Xia Wei's eyes darkened, and she looked in the direction where the cold wind came from, only to see a fairy dressed in silver, who seemed to be coming on the north wind, appearing on the other side of the Tianji.

"It was you who summoned the Purple Sky Divine Thunder and killed the Star Lord who was guarding the Shenzhou?"

Xia Wei gritted her teeth secretly when she heard the cold words of the fairy. Judging from the aura alone, the fairy was not weaker than the previous Douxu Star Lord, and was even stronger.

If Xia Wei was in good condition, she wouldn't have to be so afraid, but now Xia Wei's immortal body had been completely overdrawn by the Purple Sky Divine Thunder, and it was quite difficult for her to even move. Let alone continue fighting, even if she ran fast, she might fall.

In addition, the immortal energy in her body that had gone astray also made Xia Wei quite unbearable. If she continued to fight, the outcome would probably not be good.

"Fairy Su'e, she was the one who injured me... I have warned her not to take this Shenzhou, but she refused to listen."

Seeing the masters from the palace arrive, Fairy Yao Luan immediately stepped forward and reported the situation truthfully.

Xia Wei gritted her teeth. Even when facing a powerful enemy with aura superior to hers, she had no intention of retreating. She angrily said, "You are immortals from the Moon Palace, but you actually use the life span of mortals to make pills. Now that I have seen it, I will never sit idly by!"

Fairy Su'e glanced at him coldly and said, "What do you know? With your ability, trying to stop this is like an ant trying to shake a tree."

Xia Wei glared and was about to call for thunder, but she saw the cold frost spreading along her feet. Before she could react, she saw the frost moving all the way up, completely freezing her, turning her into a lifelike ice sculpture, and then she was completely lifeless.

Fairy Su'e spoke slowly: "Well, the thief has been killed. Let the palace maids move the Yangshou in the Shenzhou back to the palace. It's a pity that so many star officials were sacrificed this time. If the Wanshou Kingdom asks about it, it will be quite troublesome."

"Is it over..." Fairy Yao Luan breathed a sigh of relief. With Xia Wei's ability to summon the Purple Sky Divine Thunder, she was really afraid that Fairy Su'e would not be her opponent. Fortunately, after a hard battle, Xia Wei was already at the end of her strength. In front of Fairy Su'e, she had no room for resistance.

Looking at Xia Wei who had turned into an ice sculpture from afar, Yao Bai had a complicated expression and remained silent.

The palace maids worked hard to move the elixir that carried the life span of the world out from the crashed Shenzhou and put it back into the palace. The lifeless ice sculpture that Xia Wei had turned into was thrown out by them.

As Yangshou was moved, the Marigold was also taken away by the palace maids. Only the ice sculpture of Xia Wei's incarnation lay on the desolate moon, and perhaps it would be completely forgotten soon.

Yao Bai did not go far, but kept wandering around until everyone disappeared. Then she ran back in two steps at a time, looking at the ice sculpture of Xia Wei with a troubled look on her face.

"The strength of Fairy Su'e is truly terrifying... But, how can I melt this piece of mysterious ice?"

Yao Bai looked left and right with a worried look on her face. She stretched out her hand and condensed it. A blazing thunder came down from the air and hit the ice sculpture that wrapped Xia Wei, but it didn't leave even the slightest crack. The thunder that she condensed with all her strength was like tickling the ice sculpture.

"Do we need to roast it with fire? However, this is, after all, the mysterious ice transformed by the magic of Fairy Su'e. Ordinary flames may not be effective. It is better to wait until the time comes to test the elixir and see if we can ask the palace maid for some fire for refining the elixir..."

Just as Yao Bai was thinking hard, the ice in front of him suddenly moved.

A ray of boundless fire rose from the inside of the solid ice. Under the burning of the extreme temperature, even the black ice that had been difficult to melt for thousands of years melted rapidly as if it had met its natural enemy.

"what happened?"

Yao Bai was slightly stunned. The sudden change was really beyond her expectations.

Before she could think clearly, she saw a scorching heat wave erupting, and even the long ears on her head were splashed with sparks. She was so scared that she hurriedly put out the fire. She didn't dare to get any closer and retreated a full ten feet away before looking back in shock.

Looking closely, he saw that the boundless fire was born from Xia Wei's body. Under the embrace of the flames, the black ice melted rapidly. She, who had long lost her life, actually opened her eyes again at this moment.

Yao Bai's eyes trembled and his mouth opened slightly. Until now, he still couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes. Xia Wei, who had died under the magic of Fairy Su'e, actually came back to life again.

"You...are you still alive?"

The black ice melted, and Yao Bai approached Xia Wei cautiously, not daring to believe what he saw. Could it be that she had turned into a ghost?
Xia Wei breathed deeply, as if she had just woken up from a dream, but this time, her face was a little more solemn: "Yes, I'm still alive, why do you look so surprised?"

Yao Bai remained silent, feeling that things were somewhat unexpected, while Xia Wei slowly wiped the ashes off her body, with a look of unwillingness to admit defeat in her eyes.

Facing the powerful Fairy Su'e, Xia Wei lost her life before she could fight back. Fortunately, she had a first-class talent, which allowed her to be reborn after death. Fairy Su'e could never have imagined that Xia Wei, who had already been killed in her eyes, actually had such a trump card. Killing her once was not enough.

So far, Xia Wei has triggered the innate magical power of rebirth from the ashes three times. If she wants to use it again, she will have to wait three months. If she dies in the middle of it, there will be no possibility of resurrection.

Yao Bai took a deep breath and was about to speak, but Xia Wei's eyes fell on her first: "It seems that you know the fairy just now. Tell me her information. The next time I see her, I will make her understand how powerful she is."

…………

In Wanshou Country, after finishing the celebration, Ye Jie suddenly took out the eight-sided stitching pages, his expression changed slightly.

"What's wrong? What's the hurry?"

Beside him, Hua Xiaomei also noticed the change in his expression and couldn't help but ask.

"This is the news from Tianji Sect. They are under attack from a powerful enemy. They may not be able to hold out for long and will be completely destroyed..."

Ye Jie took a deep breath and reported the situation revealed on the stitched page, feeling a little anxious.

Actually, he had finally gathered all the materials to refine the basalt shield. If Tian Ming died, there would be no one to complete the refining for him. Even if he collected all the materials, it would be useless. He would have to spend a lot of money to ask those forging masters to help, and they might not be able to do it.

Every forging master has his own temper and will not easily help outsiders to refine weapons. If you want to ask them to help, it will inevitably be a huge loss.

What's more, Ye Jie and Tian Ming get along very well. It is neither reasonable nor moral for them to sit idly by and watch the Tianji Sect be destroyed. They must find a way to go back and provide assistance.

After hearing the news, the partners were a little embarrassed. Shen Qingge frowned and said:
"According to the distance between Wanshou City and Tianji Gate, even if the Tianji travels at full speed, it will take at least two days. By the time we get back, the battle there will have already been settled, and it will not last until the moment we arrive."

Ye Jie calmed down and came up with an idea in his mind: "Don't worry, I will move forward first, and you will stay in Wanshou City and wait for my news."

On the side, Fairy Wanshou also learned the news that Ye Jie was leaving, and assured: "Don't worry, Palace Master Ye, you are all honored guests of Wanshou City. When you are away, others will receive the best courtesy."

Hearing this, Ye Jie felt relieved. Ren Changhong was still a little puzzled: "How are you going to move? Ghost immortals can't use the shrinking stone. Moving a feather is not as difficult as moving a mountain. The power of ghost immortals will only burst the shrinking stone. Only ordinary ghosts who have not yet become immortals can use the shrinking stone to move souls."

Nan Linghe seemed to remember something, and looked at one of his silent companions: "I understand, Brother Jie needs the help of Hong Haitou, only she can move the immortals freely."

Following Nan Linghe's direction, everyone's eyes fell on the red veiled figure who was standing quietly and silently in the distance. Only the red veiled figure had the ability to move any immortal.

"I want to find Tianming. Please take me to Tianjimen."

Ye Jie spoke respectfully and stated his request.

The red veil nodded slightly, and the cloth covering her face shook. Then she took out a huge piece of red cloth and wrapped Ye Jie's body tightly in it. She waved to Nan Linghe, motioning her to come over.

Nan Linghe ran over in a daze, and the red veil handed her one end of the red cloth, motioning her to pull it hard.

Nan Linghe did as she was told. With a slight force, she pulled the entire red cloth apart. With a "swoosh" sound, the red cloth was peeled off, but Ye Jie inside had disappeared.

Seeing this scene, everyone was no longer surprised. They had all heard more or less about the abilities of the Red Veil. Only the Fairy Wanshou's face changed drastically. Even with her experience accumulated over thousands of years, she could not see clearly what the Red Veil had done.

The starlight fell, and when Ye Jie's vision returned to normal, familiar wood-making tools appeared before his eyes. He was no longer in Wanshou City, but had come to Tianji Gate.

It was late at night and the enemy chose to launch the attack in the dead of night, obviously with no intention of leaving anyone alive. Looking around, there were heavy casualties around Tianji City, and wailing and crying were heard everywhere.

Letting go of his perception, Ye Jie soon found an acquaintance, that man was the second elder of the Tianji Sect. He lay on the ground, his once round belly now like a deflated ball, he would not be able to hold on for long before he would die.

"Are you ok?"

Seeing this person, Ye Jie's eyes flickered and he turned to ask.

"Palace Master Ziwei? Great, you're finally here..." Seeing Ye Jie, the second elder coughed as if he had a last burst of energy, and his eyes looked as if he had seen a savior.

"Where is Tian Ming? Tell me the news about the enemy. Who on earth is it that attacks Tianji Gate at this moment?" Ye Jie bent down and tried to use immortal energy to stop the bleeding in the second elder's stomach, but to no avail.

"It's useless... I've been poisoned by the Red Refining Poison, and the only way waiting for me is death..." The second elder laughed miserably and stopped Ye Jie's actions.

"Red Refining Poison? Could it be..."

Ye Jie's eyes trembled, as if he remembered something, and then he heard the second elder speak:

"The one who attacked Tianji Sect tonight was an elder from the Ten Thousand Snake Cave. He came for the Golden Silk Phoebe King. The group from Tuntian Pavilion was under their instructions..."

By the end of his speech, the Second Elder was barely able to breathe, and it seemed that he was no longer able to continue.

His immortal body was corroded by the Red Refining Poison, and even the immortal essence that Ye Jie injected into it for protection became nourishment for the Red Refining Poison, making it even more powerful.

Ye Jie took a deep breath, it seemed that the Second Elder's immortal body could not be saved, so he immediately activated his immortal essence to protect the Second Elder's soul inside, ensuring that his mind was clear. Then he slapped his forehead hard, and with the power of the Lord of Yama Palace, he pulled his soul out, thus avoiding his fate of having his soul torn apart.

After leaving the broken immortal body, the second elder's soul breath improved, and he quickly said: "Master Ziwei, please save the golden nanmu king. Without that sacred tree, the Tianji Sect will be disbanded..."

Ye Jie nodded and immediately rushed to the direction of Nanmulin. He quickly rescued the few disciples who were on the verge of death on the road.
