YM778.TV Chapter 639: Good Karma
But it was already too late.
Without a single word, she waved her hand mysteriously.
An invisible force swept the area, turning it upside down. Even the air started to crumble.
Standing directly opposite her, the black-robed old man was the first to bear the brunt. A wave of power drowned him before he could even struggle.
Then, an astonishing scene followed. A muffled sound came from the black-robed old man\'s body before it transformed into a scarlet bird creature.
His body rapidly shrank to the size of an ant and drifted into the mist maiden’s palm.
It was also at that moment when they noticed a chipped purple alms bowl in her hand and chaotic qi spiraling from it.
The scarlet bird was directly subdued into the purple alms bowl, unable to make another sound.
“Th…”
The other old monsters gasped, faces blanching. A Life Death Stage King had been suppressed in an instant!
No, it had been captured like a beast. It had been captured in the treasure and then suppressed.
Undoubtedly, being captured in such a way was worse than death for all Life Death Stage Kings!
After all, they had established themselves as top cultivators in the world with their mighty powers and were always the focus of attention.
It was the greatest shame to be subdued and captured like a beast.
But at the same time, the maiden’s unfathomable and supreme ability chilled them to the core.
Even Life Death Stage Kings were unable to withstand a single strike. How terrifying was the mysterious maiden in the mist?
Who was she?
Her powers astonished even Lin Xun and Toady. Their pupils constricted, and indescribable shock flooded their hearts.
The maiden’s unpredictable means reminded them of the old ape, who was as equally terrifying and powerful. He treated Life Death Stage Kings as ants and always exuded a mighty, imposing bearing.
Could she also be a Saint?
On the sea of gray mist, the mysterious maiden again released another wave of invisible force. She didn’t plan to stop.
“Run!”
The old monsters were completely scared out of their wits, and their eyes almost popped out. They frantically tried to run with all their strength.
But they found that the surroundings had been sealed off and turned into an indestructible prison!
“No—!”
Their souls almost flew away from their bodies.
“Is this the danger of the Dao Burial Sea Mound?”
PU!
One of the patriarchs met with calamity. His figure turned into a green-horned crocodile before shrinking to the size of an ant and being captured into the purple alms bowl.
The scene was too bizarre and frightening. A mysterious girl had effortlessly subdued two Life Death Stage Kings without a single word!
Her detached and superior demeanor resembled that of an omnipotent god from legends.
“No—!”
The others roared as they wildly bolted and summoned all sorts of treasures with all their strength. They looked as frantic as ants on a hot griddle.
If they had a choice, then they would rather not have stepped into the eerie and ominous sea mound.
Unfortunately, it was too late for regret.
……
In the outside world.
Seven old monsters were still patiently waiting, reluctant to leave. They were all pondering and looking for opportunities to get a share of the final loot.
To them, Lin Xun was a living treasure. He possessed too many items they coveted.
For example, the Saint Dao Scripture of the Five Elements Holy Island.
For example, the Jade Records Gold Book of the Purple Cloud Sacred Mountain.
Each one of them was related to the secrets of the Saint Path, which could make any Life Death Stage King fight for it with their life.
In addition, Lin Xun had looted many interesting treasures from the saints of various clans.
Who would willingly give up and leave?
“Guys, why don’t we join forces? It doesn’t matter who obtained the treasures in the end because we can combine our strengths and kill them when they return from the sea mound. Then, the treasures will be ours,” someone suggested, tempting everyone else.
“Ah—!”
A blood-curdling screech filled with endless fear rang from the depths of the Dao Burial Sea Mound.
Their expressions dramatically changed. It’s the patriarch of the Scarlet Bird Clan! Did he encounter an accident?
Shuddering inwardly, they were secretly glad that they chose to not enter the Dao Burial Sea Mound.
That hell-like place was too bizarre and terrifying. In the past, countless powerful experts had also fallen there.
“No—!”
Soon, another burst of frantic and frightened screams shook the world like the cries of beasts in despair.
The old monsters in the outside world looked at each other in dismay, feeling a shiver down their spines. Something extremely terrifying must be happening in the Dao Burial Sea Mound!
What to do?
Run or stay?
While they were conflicted about what to do, the foggy depths of the Dao Burial Sea Mound became deadly silent with no further movements heard.
But that chilled them even more.
What had happened? Had the old monsters who came with them met with calamity and fallen?
“I will give this opportunity to you all. I have some important affairs to attend to, so I will leave first.” Someone couldn’t stand the stifling atmosphere anymore and turned around to leave.
The others’ expressions changed. They seemed very hesitant but after a moment, they noticed a beautiful figure looming in the depths of the thick fog.
Tha—?
Their bodies became paralyzed and their scalps turned numb. A feeling of unprecedented danger flooded their bodies from just one glance at the figure.
“Run!”
They didn’t dare to hesitate for a moment and scattered haphazardly like birds and beasts in the face of a threat.
It was also at that moment that the old monsters waiting in the outside world finally realized that their comrades might not be able to step back out of the Dao Burial Sea Mound.
The thought of the looming beautiful figure sent a shudder down their backs as if they had fallen into an ice cave. Could it be one of the great dangers hidden in the Dao Burial Sea Mound?
……
It was utterly silent on the Grand Universe Ark.
Both Lin Xun and Toady were frozen with shock, unable to calm down for a long time.
Life Death Stage Kings had been subdued one after another before their eyes. The mysterious maiden effortlessly suppressed them into the purple alms bowl without seeing the slightest bit of resistance from them.
Lin Xun’s jaw dropped. So strong. Life Death Stage Kings were suppressed so easily, as if she was slaughtering chickens. What sort of strength is needed to achieve that?
It was unimaginable!
In the end, the six old monsters who entered the Dao Burial Sea Mound had been wiped out. Not one was able to escape.
Was that the good show that Ahu spoke about?
Could she have known that would happen so she steered the Grand Universe Ark into the Dao Burial Sea Mound?
Lin Xun looked at Ahu differently. She wasn’t only as breathtakingly beautiful as a fairy, but also had an unfathomable background.
Even Toady was silent. Ever since he regained consciousness, he had been living in the Dao Burial Sea Mound. He had encountered the king of the Great Wraith Army and had come across many peculiar and ominous situations and beings, but he didn’t know about the incomparably terrifying mist maiden.
However, Ahu unexpectedly seemed to know more about the Dao Burial Sea Mound than he did.
“The good show is over, are you satisfied?” Ahu giggled, the expression on her fair and beautiful face easing.
Toady couldn’t help asking, “Who are you?”
Lin Xun peered ahead and saw that the crisis had been averted and the mysterious mist maiden had vanished.
It was time to talk to the charming girl with a beautiful smile and eyes.
“It doesn’t matter who I am. The important thing is that I was only prompted by an impulse to create good karma with you two.”
Her eyes were clear and the corners of her lips were curled slightly upwards. She exuded a girlish charm, but also a scared and ethereal aura. It seemed very contradictory, but they were perfectly harmonized in her.
“Good karma?”
“Yes, good karma.”
Ahu nodded. Her statement seemed very abstract, but she seemed to take it very seriously.
“Hahaha, you helped us just for good karma?” Toady burst into laughter, finding it absurd.
“It’s not funny,” Ahu said calmly.
Lin Xun started to believe her when he saw her seriousness. “This good karma is too good. I’m worried that I won’t be able to repay you in the future.”
Ahu smiled slightly. Her bright red lips pulled back to reveal her pearly white teeth as she explained, “It’s fine to receive no repayment. The seeds of good karma have been sowed and that is already enough. It would be good if flowers bloom, but if not, it is still a joyous occasion. I have no regrets.”
She waved her delicate little hand and said with a smile, “Okay, I should go now too. I wish you two a smooth journey, and I look forward to meeting you again someday.”
Her figure drifted away like a dreamy shadow, and it was too late to stop her.
“Hey, do you not want the treasure ship anymore?” Lin Xun hastily cried out.
“It was prepared for you, so please kindly accept it.” Ahu’s clear and melodious voice reverberated in the distance.
Very quickly, she vanished without a trace.
“The demon girl must be scheming something to make us owe her such a big favor!” Toady said through gritted teeth.
However, Lin Xun fell into deep thought and said softly after a while, “It seems that the first time we met her wasn’t a coincidence.”
“Perhaps, since then, she has been preparing this ‘good karma’...”
“But no matter who she is, she has helped us greatly, and no matter what her motive is, it will be clear one day!”
