Chapter 783 Lu Xueqi and Biyao
When Su Han came last time, he could still see the patterns of the formation clearly, but now, many of the patterns have been blurred by the erosion of the Netherworld Qi.
Su Han took out the sealing method from his storage ring—the white jade tablet.
As soon as the jade tablet was taken out, it sensed the aura of the seal and began to emit a soft white light. The white light grew brighter and brighter, shining on the black, ghostly energy, which quickly dissipated as if it had encountered its nemesis.
Following the method recorded in the jade slip, Su Han placed the sealing technique at the core of the seal. The jade tablet slowly sank and embedded itself into the seal, fitting perfectly, as if it had been designed specifically for it.
"I'm about to begin." Su Han took a deep breath and turned to look at Fairy Moonflower. "Uncle-Master, please step back a bit."
Moon Fairy shook her head and said, "No, I want to stay here with you."
“Uncle-Master,” Su Han said, “the Netherworld Qi is too dangerous for you. You should retreat to the flying boat, where Uncle-Master Wan Jian’s sword intent will protect you and resist the erosion of the Netherworld Qi.”
Moon Fairy wanted to say something more, but seeing Su Han's determined eyes, she finally gave in.
"You must be careful," said Fairy Moonflower, her eyes filled with worry.
Su Han nodded and said, "I will."
Moon Fairy and Sword Master Wanjian retreated to the flying boat, which hovered above the deep valley. Sword Master Wanjian released his sword intent, forming an invisible barrier that kept the Netherworld energy out.
Su Han sat cross-legged beside the seal, placed his hands on the sealing technique, and began to infuse it with chaotic power.
Golden chaotic energy surged into the jade tablet, causing it to burst forth with a dazzling white light. The white light spread along the seal's patterns, and wherever it passed, the patterns that had been eroded by the Netherworld energy became clear again, and the seal's power began to recover.
But the backlash from the Netherworld energy also began.
The Lord of the Netherworld, seemingly sensing someone reinforcing the seal, began to frantically attack it. The entire Netherworld Abyss trembled, the earth shook, and rocks tumbled down from both sides of the valley, kicking up clouds of dust.
The newly repaired patterns on the seal began to crack again under the impact of the Lord of the Underworld.
Su Han gritted his teeth and desperately poured in chaotic power. He knew this was a protracted battle; whoever could hold out longer would be the winner. If he lost, the seal would completely collapse, the Lord of the Netherworld would break free, and the cultivation world would face annihilation.
The power of chaos surged forth like a tide, engaging in a fierce battle with the Netherworld energy on the seal. Golden light and black mist intertwined, emitting a hissing sound, like water and fire clashing.
Time ticked by, and Su Han's spiritual energy was rapidly depleting. This time, his spiritual energy was much more abundant than when he fused with the fragments last time, but the Lord of the Netherworld's counterattack was also much fiercer than before.
An hour has passed.
Two hours have passed.
Four hours have passed.
Su Han's forehead began to sweat, but his eyes remained firm.
Six hours.
Eight hours.
Ten hours.
Su Han's face began to turn pale, but his hands remained firmly pressed on the sealing technique, and chaotic power continued to flow into it.
The twelve two-hour periods of the day.
A day and a night passed, and Su Han had already consumed nearly half of his spiritual energy. Most of the cracks in the seal had been repaired, but the last few largest cracks were still stubbornly resisting.
The Lord of the Netherworld seemed to sense something was wrong, and his attack became even more frenzied. The entire Netherworld Abyss trembled violently, and several huge cracks appeared in the earth, from which black Netherworld energy surged forth, shrouding the entire deep valley in darkness.
On the flying boat, Fairy Yuehua looked down at Su Han, her heart breaking. She could feel Su Han's spiritual energy rapidly depleting, but she could do nothing but watch helplessly. "Hold on, Su Han, hold on," Fairy Yuehua prayed silently in her heart.
By the eighteenth hour, Su Han had exhausted nearly eighty percent of his spiritual power. His body began to tremble, his face was as pale as paper, and his lips were cracked and bleeding, but his eyes remained firm, and his hands were still firmly pressed on the sealing technique.
The twenty-fourth hour, two days and two nights had passed, and Su Han's spiritual power was almost exhausted. His consciousness began to blur, and the world before his eyes began to distort, but he still did not let go.
The last crack, also the widest one, finally began to slowly heal.
Su Han poured the last bit of chaotic power in his body into the sealing technique, and the jade tablet burst out with a final, dazzling white light, illuminating the entire deep valley.
After the white light dissipated, everything returned to calm.
All the cracks in the seal disappeared, and the seal's patterns became clear again, emitting a soft white light. The ghostly energy was forced back under the seal, the black mist in the deep valley gradually dissipated, and sunlight shone in again.
The seal has been repaired.
Su Han looked at the repaired seal and a smile appeared on his lips. He tried to stand up, but his legs wouldn't obey him, and he collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
"Su Han!" Fairy Yuehua's voice came from above. She jumped off the flying boat and rushed to Su Han's side, ignoring Wan Jian Zhenren's obstruction.
"You succeeded!" Fairy Yuehua exclaimed excitedly, tears streaming down her face. "You succeeded, Su Han!"
Su Han smiled weakly and said, "Yes, Uncle-Master, we succeeded."
He reached out, wanting to wipe away the tears on Fairy Moon's face, but his hand fell limply halfway up.
Moon Fairy grabbed his hand, placed it on her face, and burst into tears.
Master Wanjian landed on the flying boat, looking at the repaired seal with eyes full of shock and admiration.
“Good lad,” said Master Wanjian, “you really did it.”
Su Han lay on the ground, looking at the white clouds in the sky, her heart filled with peace.
The seal on the Netherworld Abyss has been repaired, and the crisis in the cultivation world has been temporarily averted. But he knew that this was only temporary. Although the sealing technique could strengthen the seal, it could not seal the Lord of the Netherworld forever. One day, the seal would still break, and the Lord of the Netherworld would still awaken.
But that's a long time from now. Maybe ten thousand years, maybe a hundred thousand years, maybe even longer.
At that time, a new powerful figure will surely emerge in the cultivation world to take over his responsibilities and continue to protect the peace of this world.
“Su Han,” the Moon Fairy’s voice rang in his ear, “Let’s go home.”
Su Han turned his head, looked at Fairy Yuehua, and smiled slightly.
"Okay, let's go home."
……
Three months later, at the Qingyun Sect.
Su Han's body has fully recovered, and as a result of the misfortune, his cultivation has shown signs of breaking through again due to the Chaos Spirit Liquid and the extreme training that exhausted his spiritual power twice.
Above the peak of the Nascent Soul stage lies the Void Refinement stage.
Once he breaks through to the Void Refinement stage, he will truly become a top-tier existence in the cultivation world, standing on the same level as True Person Wan Jian and True Person Xuan Qing. (End of Chapter)
