Chapter 606: Dazheng\'s Code of Laws Seals Yin Peng
The praying mat blocked the roc as a tempest formed around them, causing the formations in the vicinity to shake.
"A praying mat? It won\'t stop me!" the roc shouted.
He spat out a beam of golden light that encased a divine halberd. With all his strength, he charged toward the praying mat.
Another tempest was unleashed as the halberd clashed against the praying mat. Though it trembled, the praying mat held firm.
"Yin Peng\'s too strong. He\'s no ordinary Golden Immortal, and I can\'t use too much of the praying mat\'s strength just yet. I won\'t be able to hold on for long!" Zhang Lingjun fretted.
As the halberd grew larger and larger, the praying mat trembled more and more violently, as though it could be sent flying at any moment.
Xiao Nanfeng hurriedly retrieved a token and activated it, opening up a portal through the void.
"Let\'s go!" Xiao Nanfeng shouted, pulling Zhang Lingjun inside with him.
The two cultivators passed through the portal.
"Hiding in the Spirit Emperor\'s hidden realm, are you? You won\'t be able to escape. Even if I have to give up this halberd, I\'ll kill you! Detonate!" the roc roared.
The halberd detonated with incredible strength, sending the praying mat flying in a burst of fire and wind. The formations all around began to crack.
Gritting his teeth and bearing with his wounds, the roc rushed through the explosion and chased Xiao Nanfeng and Zhang Lingjun through the portal right before it sealed shut.
The praying mat trembled and was about to give chase when it belatedly realized that the portal had vanished. A burst of red light was emitted from the praying mat, as if it were about to tear apart the void, only to have the portal appear once more as Zhang Lingjun was pushed out.
"Xiao Nanfeng!" Zhang Lingjun exclaimed, attempting to fly back inside.
However, the portal snapped shut before she could do so.
"No! Let me in, Xiao Nanfeng!"
She tried to claw at the void, but she hardly had the strength to open up a portal on her own.
"Ao Canghai, Martial Aspects, please save Xiao Nanfeng! Just one or two Martial Aspects will do!" Zhang Lingjun begged anxiously.
However, the Martial Aspects high in the air smirked coldly. None lent their aid.
Meanwhile, the praying mat flew back to Zhang Lingjun. She begged again, "Grandmaster, please save Xiao Nanfeng!"
The praying mat ignored her. It flew back into her hands and began to protect her.
"Grandmaster, please! I\'m begging you, save Xiao Nanfeng!" Zhang Lingjun was so distressed that she knelt to the praying mat, her eyes red with worry.
Moments before, after Xiao Nanfeng and Zhang Lingjun entered the Spirit Emperor\'s hidden realm, when Xiao Nanfeng saw that the roc had chased them within, he hurriedly opened another portal and pushed Zhang Lingjun out.
Simultaneously, with a wave of his hand, countless lengths of red rope descended from the heavens and attempted to bind the roc.
He could hide in the red moon illusory realm, but was worried that the roc would be able to tear his way out of the Spirit Emperor\'s hidden realm and hurt Zhang Lingjun or even destroy Yongding. He could hardly count on the Martial Aspects; no, he would have to take the roc on himself.
"This red rope is useless against me. Xiao Nanfeng, die!"
The roc broke the lengths of red rope that tried to restrain him and charged forward again. Xiao Nanfeng chose not to dodge. He drew Dazheng\'s code of laws and unfurled it.
"Dazheng\'s Code of Laws, seal!" Xiao Nanfeng shouted.
A brilliant beam of golden light from the code of laws struck the roc.
The roc suddenly saw a starry sky around him. Countless stars shot toward him as an aura of incredible strength surrounded him.
"So many natural laws? How could this be?!" the roc exclaimed.
In a flash of light, the roc was absorbed into the Dazheng Code of Laws and vanished from sight.
Xiao Nanfeng clutched his code of laws in shock. That was it?
On the scroll was a new drawing of a roc. The roc was clearly frightened and shocked. He struggled furiously, but his surroundings were filled with star maps that continued to seal him and render him motionless.
"I succeeded... A three-dimensional roc, sealed into a two-dimensional drawing? Dazheng\'s Code of Laws bears truly incredible strength," Xiao Nanfeng murmured.
Then, the scroll began to tremble in his hands. The roc on the scroll began to make a move, as though it were trying to escape.
Xiao Nanfeng\'s heart thumped. "Fortune of Dazheng, to me!"
The sea of fortune in Dazheng began to rumble. The fortune passed through the void and shot straight toward Xiao Nanfeng, who infused it into his scroll. Bolstered by fortune, Dazheng\'s Code of Laws emanated another incredible burst of golden light as the seal grew even stronger. The roc was rendered immobile once again.
However, the roc represented a constant drain on his fortune. He would have to continuously expend fortune—at an alarming rate, no less—to maintain the enhanced seal.
"Dazheng\'s Code of Laws and the Divine Seal of Dazheng—they really are going to drain me of fortune, aren\'t they?" Xiao Nanfeng sighed.
He didn\'t rush out of the Spirit Emperor\'s hidden realm right away, worried that the Martial Aspects and Yin Shenhua would be shocked by the fact that he was unscathed. More variables might be introduced then. Instead, he was waiting for assistance.
Before long, the black lotus passed through the void and appeared before him.
"Senior, thank goodness you\'re here! If you had been just moments later, I wouldn\'t have been able to trap him," Xiao Nanfeng called out, his eyes brightening.
"Where\'s Yin Peng?" the black lotus asked.
Xiao Nanfeng unfurled the scroll he held in his hands, revealing the drawing of the roc within.
"Your code of laws is truly incredible. Despite being the code of laws of a mere empire, it has the strength of that of a divine empire," the black lotus murmured.
"Senior, I\'m releasing him now."
"Very well," the black lotus replied.
The black lotus expanded in size, and the hole on its underside was poised to suck up anything that emerged from Dazheng\'s Code of Laws.
Xiao Nanfeng waved a hand, causing the roc in the scroll to pop out into reality again, regaining his three-dimensional form.
Frantic, the roc tried to escape the moment he was freed, but he was unable to escape from the black lotus.
"No!" the roc howled in despair.
It was sucked up into the black hole at the base of the black lotus. Then, the black lotus began to vibrate.
"It\'s still struggling," the black lotus murmured.
It gradually shrunk until it reached its normal size, then flew into Xiao Nanfeng\'s mindscape to slowly distill the roc\'s essence.
"Senior, what\'s the situation in Yongding now?" Xiao Nanfeng asked.
"I don\'t know. I entered the Spirit Emperor\'s hidden realm through other means. You had better take a look yourself," the black lotus said.
Xiao Nanfeng nodded.
High in the sky above the city of Yongding, rays of golden light shot toward Yin Shenhua from afar—his subordinates, belatedly catching up to him owing to his incredible speed. By the time they arrived, Yin Shenhua had already been engaged in battle with the Martial Aspects for quite some time.
The combined strength of Ao Canghai and the ten Martial Aspects was incredible indeed. By then, blood was trickling out of a corner of Yin Shenhua\'s lips. He had sustained a fair few wounds and was unable to flee.
"Protect the ancestral Buddha!" his subordinates shouted.
Yin Shenhua\'s subordinates attacked simultaneously and struck the Martial Aspects surrounding him.
Sensing the opportunity, Yin Shenhua struck at full force. "Break!"
Another tempest was unleashed high in the air, illuminating the skies above Yongding.
The tremendous explosion repulsed the Martial Aspects from Yin Shenhua.
As he spat out another mouthful of fresh blood, Yin Shenhua clutched his chest and shouted, "Flee!"
"Understood!"
Yin Shenhua\'s subordinates escorted him off.
"You won\'t be able to escape!" the Martial Aspect of Violetfrost shouted as he gave chase.
"Don\'t bother. Yin Shenhua might be wounded, but not debilitatingly so. If he attempts to flee unhindered, we won\'t be able to catch up," Ao Canghai said, scowling.
"Understood!" The Martial Aspects stopped in their tracks.
"Eastern Aspect Ao, Martial Aspects, please rescue Xiao Nanfeng!"
Zhang Lingjun\'s praying mat had refused to pay heed to her cries for help. She had no choice but to batter at the void herself, but her limited strength meant that she had no chance of success. She was tearing up in panic and earnestly begged the Martial Aspects now that they were no longer occupied.
Ao Canghai and the other Martial Aspects glanced at each other, smirking lightly. Ao Canghai said, "Very well. Let\'s have a look at the Spirit Emperor\'s hidden realm."
They were certain that Xiao Nanfeng had been torn apart by the roc by now. All they would see when they entered the realm was nothing but his corpse. Just thinking about it was making them feel relaxed.
Just then, a void portal appeared beside Zhang Lingjun. Xiao Nanfeng strode out to see Zhang Lingjun in tears.
"Princess? What\'s the matter?" Xiao Nanfeng exclaimed.
"Impossible! That golden roc was a peak Golden Immortal! Even if it were badly injured, Xiao Nanfeng wouldn\'t have been able to stand against it. How could he be alright?!" the Martial Aspect of Violetfrost cried out.
The other Martial Aspects were taken aback as well. Ao Canghai grimaced, his good mood completely ruined.
Zhang Lingjun gaped at Xiao Nanfeng. She wiped at her eyes to check that it wasn\'t an illusion or a trick. Then, she leapt into his embrace and choked out, "I thought you died!"
Xiao Nanfeng couldn\'t help but feel comforted by the depths of her emotion. He patted Zhang Lingjun\'s back. "Don\'t worry. I\'ve returned, safe and sound. What\'s more, even if I really had perished, I still have another body."
Zhang Lingjun slowly calmed down. When she discovered herself in his embrace, she instantly flushed and broke free from his arms.
"None of that nonsense! I won\'t have you die in either of your bodies," Zhang Lingjun pursed her lips.
Xiao Nanfeng wiped at her tears with a small smile. "Very well. Your wish is my command, Princess."
Zhang Lingjun\'s face was still red, but she didn\'t back down. She seemed to be enjoying the warmth of their mutual affection.
"Ahem!" the Martial Aspects coughed from nearby.
They glared at the couple, their faces dour.
