Chapter 29 Ch : The Pillar Of Light
"Nine Hell Transformation!"
Ye Xiao has no idea what Divine Inscriptions are and how to remove or break them.
According to Su Ling, Divine Inscriptions are like formations but tens of times more profound and mysterious.
As long as Divine Inscriptions are like formations, Ye Xiao was confident in breaking them. With his Eyes of Insight, he could definitely be able to see through the essence of Divine Inscriptions. Even though he has zero ideas about Divine Inscriptions, he believed he has what it takes to shatter these Inscriptions and truly kill the Wooden Monster.
To surely kill the Wooden Monster, Ye Xiao displayed one of his nine special abilities without hesitation. 𝒃𝙚𝙙𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝙢
The Nine Hell Transformation was a domain-type ability that creates a domain completely under Ye Xiao's control. In this domain, he is the god and he is the destroyer. As long as he wished for something, that will definitely happen.
Of course, as long as enemies are more powerful than Ye Xiao, they could break this domain easily.
The moment Ye Xiao executed the Nine Hell Transformation, under Su Ling's shocked eyes, the forest suddenly disappeared and turned into hell. The entire surroundings turned red, the land under their feet had countless cracks everywhere and those cracks were filled with boiling magma. From time to time, the magma would explode out of the ground at a certain place.
The sky was red and filled with evil energy. The evil and demonic aura could be felt intensely in this space.
"Roar!"
The Wooden Monster was also affected by the sudden change. It almost fell in magma.
Maybe, it felt threatened by the sudden change of the environment and atmosphere around him, it let out a loud roar and charged toward Ye Xiao.
But he suddenly froze on his way to Ye Xiao, as if it was restricted to move by a mysterious energy.
No matter how powerful the Wooden Monster was, now that its source of power is destroyed, it was nothing more than a mere puppet without much strength. This puppet was still alive and could roar and lunge at Ye Xiao because of the Divine Inscriptions.
"Divine Inscriptions are really mysterious!" Ye Xiao muttered in his head, and then he carefully started observing the Wooden Monster with his Eyes of Insight, trying to see where the Divine Inscriptions are inscribed and how to break them.
Very soon, he was able to see the mysterious Divine Inscriptions. These inscriptions were more like runes, in the form of very strange but extremely profound words. Even though Ye Xiao's Eyes of Insight could see through the essence of everything that exists, his own understanding of Divine Inscriptions was shallow.
No, it was not even shallow, it was completely void. Ye Xiao has never come in contact with Divine Inscriptions so he could not understand even 0.01% of it even with the help of Eyes of Insight.
This taught Ye Xiao a great lesson. He understood at this moment that the Eyes of Insight might be able to let him see through the essence of everything, but it does not mean he could understand everything as well. Seeing and understanding are completely two things.
Ye Xiao remembered that back in the Heavens, whenever he used the Eyes of Insight, no matter if it is a formation, cultivation technique, illusion, or anything else, he could understand everything. He could even replicate a person's cultivation technique and martial arts skills by observing them circulating their cultivation technique and martial arts skills with the Eyes of Insight that could let him see through everything.
But here, he could not do the same. It might be because the difference between a Source Universe and Chaos was so vast that it could not be imagined at all. And it was very normal, after all, there were countless Source Universes like Heavens in Chaos.
Not being able to understand the Divine Inscription does not mean he could not destroy them. Divine Inscriptions could not be seen on the body of the Wooden Monster before, so Ye Xiao was unable to do anything about it. However, now that Ye Xiao was able to see these inscriptions with his Eyes of Insight, it was no longer difficult for him to remove these inscriptions.
Without a second thought, Ye Xiao appeared right in front of the Wooden Monster and punched right at the place where Divine Inscriptions were inscribed.
"World Exterminating Fist!"
World Extermination Fist was another one of the nine special abilities that Ye Xiao was born with.
The moment Ye Xiao executed his attack, a monstrous aura of destruction filled the surroundings. His fist glowed with the brilliant light of destruction. This light was fierce and overbearing as it made its way and landed directly on the right chest of Wooden Monster.
"Bang!"
With an explosive sound, a large part of the wooden monster's body where Divine Inscriptions were engraved shattered into pieces.
In the end, it was a puppet created from wood. Because of the loss of its source of power, the wooden monster completely lost its defensive ability. So, it was unable to resist Ye Xiao's attack.
The Divine Inscriptions also shattered and soon disappeared after glowing with pale golden light.
And it was at this moment the Wooden Monster also fell back, completely lifeless. It was now just like a shattered wooden sculpture, without any sign of life.
Right at this moment, before Ye Xiao could even take a deep breath after killing the monster, the entire Lost Forest of Red Moon trembled and a pillar of light suddenly shot into the sky from deep within the forest, attracting every single person's attention.
"This is...?" Ye Xiao looked at the pillar of light and muttered in surprise.
Su Ling was also surprised, but then an excited expression appeared on her face. She smiled and said, "The ruin of Red Moon Temple has appeared."
"Ruin of Red Moon Temple... Huh!"
Ye Xiao muttered and transformed back into his human form. His domain of hell also disappeared as he deactivated his ability, the Nine Hell Transformation.
With that, everything returned to normal and the forest once again appeared in their surroundings.
Then Ye Xiao said, "We should go there too. Let's go!"
"Everyone must have also seen that pillar of light. They must have understood that the ruin has appeared. Delaying is no longer an option. Let's go!" Su Ling nodded and then she left for the ruin with Ye Xiao.
The Lost Forest of Red Moon was huge, it was not something a person could explore in a single day. It took Ye Xiao and Su Ling three days to arrive at the location of the pillar of light.
It was a valley inside the Lost Forest. This valley was currently filled with people. Not far away, a golden energy barrier could be seen covering a large piece of land not far away. The pillar of light was shooting into the sky from this golden energy barrier.
Thousands of people were gathered here. Even Lei Guang and Lu Sha were also there. It could be seen that all the people in the Lost Forest have come to this place after seeing the pillar of light, and more people were still coming.
"Hmm... Who is he?"
At this moment, Ye Xiao also noticed a third person aside from Lei Guang and Lu Sha who were Chaos Dust Realm warriors.
"Umm... Mr. Ye, I think we should part ways here. Since we all are here to compete for the legacy of Red Moon Master, let's walk our own ways."
At this moment, Su Ling suddenly purposed to part ways. It is because she was fearful of Ye Xiao.
Although Ye Xiao did not do anything, seeing Ye Xiao transforming into a demon and witnessing his strength and how easy it was for him to take care of a Chaos Dust Realm wooden monster, she no longer wanted to explore the ruin with Ye Xiao. She was afraid that Ye Xiao might kill her, for he was a demon in her eyes.
Ye Xiao could see fear in Su Ling's eyes. Although he wanted to tell Su Ling to not fear him, but he stopped and did not say anything anymore. He simply nodded and agreed to go his separate way.
After saying goodbye, Su Ling left and walked toward a group of people who immediately became excited when they saw her. She seemed to be familiar with that group.
Ye Xiao sighed and then walked to Lei Guang before greeting him.
Since he entered the Lost Forest of Red Moon with Lei Guang's group and Lei Guang was present here as well, it was only right to greet Lei Guang.
When Lei Guang's son, Lei Long saw Ye Xiao, he was shocked and at the same time, happy. He returned greetings to Ye Xiao and asked how Ye Xiao has been.
Ye Xiao answered that he is good.
Lei Guang smiled upon seeing Ye Xiao, but in his heart, he was shocked. He could not understand how Ye Xiao was safe and sound even now.
