Chapter 262 Not Worth It
She knew without even having to think that Moon Spider must be heading towards Shuiwan City.
He threw a Spirit Gathering Pill to Yun Ruyi, settled Su Yanqing, and set up a protective formation for the two of them to isolate the aura of human cultivators. Jiang Liqian swallowed two Nourishing Essence Pills himself and rushed towards Shuiwan City.
Yiyezhou rushed through two checkpoints at the gate of Shuiwan City, and the spiritual power of the top-grade spirit stone was finally exhausted. She staggered down from the Yiyezhou, feeling dizzy for a moment, and suddenly held on to a door frame.
After recovering, Jiang Liqian wanted to leave immediately, but her peripheral vision caught sight of a statue of a celestial being in the temple. The statue looked 90% like the Moon Spider.
She was surprised for a moment, and then she heard someone kneeling in front of the statue of the goddess and giving sincere thanks.
Some thanked the goddess for curing illnesses and saving lives, some thanked the goddess for giving them food and finding a way out, some thanked the goddess for facilitating a good marriage between two families, and some thanked the goddess for finding their long-lost relatives... People came one after another to fulfill their vows and pray.
It is now late at night, but the temple of the goddess has never stopped being visited.
Jiang Liqian paused, then turned and left.
A huge roar suddenly broke the last bit of tranquility in Shuiwan City. Even though the soldiers in the city strictly ordered every household to go out, there were still many people who had the courage to open the windows and look at the blood-red sky.
The crying of babies and the barking of dogs could be heard at the same time. A mother was gently coaxing her child, while a man was scolding the barking dog in the yard... Countless sounds mixed together, adding a sudden chill to the quiet air.
But no one dared to ask what happened.
Jiang Liqian hurried as fast as she could, and when she finally reached the edge of the forbidden magic formation, she happened to see the Moon Spider rushing towards City Lord Zhao, who was concentrating on suppressing the forbidden magic and trying to destroy it.
Although City Lord Zhao reacted in time and blocked the Moon Spider's attack, part of his mind was withdrawn, causing the almost stagnant forbidden magic formation to start working again.
There is a white cocoon standing in each of the twelve directions of the forbidden technique, and very young children can be vaguely seen in the cocoons.
As the forbidden technique was activated again, the shaky soul fragments attached to their bodies were finally extracted by the powerful force of the forbidden technique and rushed to the center of the formation one after another.
Gradually, these soul fragments pieced together to form the shape of a person.
Yue Zhu, who had regained her human form and was fighting with City Lord Zhao, finally showed a smile on her tired face when she saw this scene. Without even frowning, she suddenly pierced her heart with one hand, took out the jade cocoon that had been nurtured with the most precious heart silk, and gently pushed it to the soul fragment in the center of the formation.
Upon seeing this, City Lord Zhao roared angrily, and without caring about the relaxed defense, he pulled back and struck the jade cocoon with a palm.
The overwhelming pressure from the god turned the surrounding buildings into dust. Jiang Liqian was forced to half-kneel on the ground, and the smell of blood suddenly spread in his mouth.
However, in the face of such terrifying power, the jade cocoon that was hit was completely unharmed and slowly merged into one with the soul fragments in the forbidden formation.
The Moon Spider also showed no mercy. Taking advantage of City Lord Zhao's unpreparedness, it transformed its hand into a sharp claw and pierced through his shoulder, seriously injuring him. Then it spit out silver threads from its mouth and completely wrapped City Lord Zhao in it, forming an extremely hard barrier.
Even if he is a powerful god, he cannot come out for a while.
Only then did Jiang Liqian understand the meaning of the words in the book: "The silver silk of the moon spider is as hard as jade. It is made of the essence of heart blood and moonlight. Few can defeat it."
But she no longer had time to think about these things. The soul fragments of those children had been extracted alive, and their three souls and seven spirits were already unstable. If they had not been within the forbidden formation, they would have died long ago. But now, the forbidden formation was still running, and it was obvious that its purpose had not been achieved.
Jiang Liqian gritted her teeth and stood up while enduring the chaotic spiritual power in her body.
We can't let the situation get any worse, the forbidden formation must be stopped immediately!
When she was in the cave, she had already informed her master about Shuiwan City using the jade token. She believed that her master must know how to break the forbidden formation, and now she was just waiting for him to send a message back.
Just delay a little longer, wait a little longer!
Jiang Liqian summoned the Zhenlingzhu and decided to try to suppress the forbidden formation by herself first.
But how could Yue Zhu do what she wanted? Now her child's resurrection was at this critical moment, she couldn't let her efforts go to waste!
Even though she didn't want to hurt anyone, she still attacked Jiang Liqian immediately.
Jiang Liqian's cultivation is limited now, and it is still unclear whether he can suppress the forbidden formation. He also has to face the attack of the Moon Spider and is simply unable to split his attention.
Seeing the red light emitted by the forbidden array growing stronger and stronger, and the breath of those children becoming weaker and weaker, she became extremely anxious and could no longer care about anything. Subconsciously, the twelve golden beads in her hand turned into a golden sword. She gripped the hilt of the sword and instinctively followed the memory deep in her soul, gathering the power of thousands of thunders to strike at the Moon Spider.
But the sudden severe pain burned her palm like fire. Her body froze, the hilt slipped out of her hand, and the golden sword broke instantly. The twelve golden beads tinkled and scattered to the ground.
Shocked by the might of the sword's initial attack, Yue Zhu, unable to move for a moment, looked at her in disbelief and blurted out, "So you're not a formation cultivator, you're a sword cultivator!"
He was also a very powerful swordsman who made her feel fear instinctively.
But the breath that made her tremble lasted less than a second before disappearing...
too weird!
The Moon Spider didn't dare to take any risks and immediately spit out silver silk, preparing to seal the strange girl in front of her into her cocoon.
But she moved quickly, and Jiang Liqian moved even faster. She reacted almost immediately and dodged the silver thread she spit out very quickly. The twelve golden beads were summoned by the main bead and surrounded their owner again. The originally light blue main bead slowly turned dark blue, and the purple thunder spiritual power passed through the inside of the main bead. It was dark and strange, and carried a mysterious breath that made people tremble with fear.
Moon Spider was half hanging in the air, looking down at Jiang Liqian with fatigue and determination in her eyes. She finally warned her: "Don't get in my way. I don't want to hurt you."
Jiang Liqian resolutely formed seals with her hands, and the twelve golden beads quickly changed their positions: "Aunt, the Moon Spider Clan has a deep connection with the immortals. As long as you practice diligently and don't go astray, you will surely ascend to immortality. Don't let a single thought lead you into an irretrievable state!
"It's not worth it."
The living are more important than the dead. Being too obsessed with something will only breed inner demons. Even if one is deeply reluctant to let go of someone who has passed away, one should not disrupt the order of life and death between heaven and earth.
Cause and effect are cyclical. Anyone who attempts to challenge the rules of heaven will only be killed by heaven and annihilated from this world.
Moon Spider looked at her and suddenly smiled.
"You know, it's because it's worth it that I'm standing here, and that's why you're trying so hard to stand in front of me."
