Chapter 350 Chain Reaction
Chapter 350 Chain Reaction
Long Yi's soft whisper ignited the deepest fear hidden in Miao Qin's heart.
Zhang Chi had previously discussed with Hong Li how Yin Xun, with his identity, managed to obtain the top-secret information of the Long Family.
Although Zhang Chi didn't explicitly say it, the meaning was clear: all of this might have been Long Yi's plan from the beginning.
Making Yin Xun the palace lord, deliberately leaking the secrets of the Long Family, and even coincidentally getting injured, all of it could be Long Yi's calculations.
The purpose was to make Yin Xun turn against them and expose this secret.
Of course, during this process, some people would inevitably become suspicious. But faced with a hopeless future, those who knew the truth might not be able to resist jumping into the trap, even if they knew it was a pit.
The Pill Cauldron Sect and the Profound Heart Sect were fine since they hadn't even touched the limits of Divine Ability, and their younger disciples weren't as outstanding, so they might not be as anxious.
But the Celestial Melody Pavilion was different. If they weren't restricted by the formation, they truly had a chance to break through to the Dao Integration Realm.
In that instant, Miao Qin thought of many things.
When Long Yi spoke, she knew that her every move was probably under his control.
Even though she had been extremely discreet, since the other party had planned everything from the beginning, no matter how she struggled, she was just a pawn on his chessboard.
"You old thief, you've harmed me too much!"
Miao Qin, knowing that the situation was exposed, naturally didn't intend to deceive anymore. But to her shock and anger, she found that she couldn't speak anymore.
Even if she wanted to transmit her Divine Soul, she couldn't do it. At this moment, she was completely imprisoned. Apart from being able to think, she couldn't do anything else.
Meanwhile, Long Yi revealed a shallow smile to her, whether it was mockery or ridicule, she couldn't tell.
He put a finger to his lips and made a "shh" gesture. The next second, a loud rumbling sound was heard.
The earth trembled, and violent spiritual energy surged out, shooting straight into the sky, forming a pillar of light that pierced through the heavens and the earth.
It was clearly visible from thousands of miles away.
The spiritual veins of the Celestial Melody Pavilion were much stronger than those of the Sword Sect. The effects after the explosion were also different. The spiritual energy had already taken on the form of a dragon, swirling around the pillar of light.
At this moment, everyone who had come to participate in the Celestial Melody Festival was dumbfounded.
What's going on?
A terrorist attack?
Who is this person floating in the air?
It should be noted that the Celestial Melody Festival gathered various forces from the Western State, including major sects and even many sect heirs.
In such a situation, someone actually attacked them?
Isn't this seeking death?
Almost simultaneously, after the spiritual veins of the Celestial Melody Pavilion exploded, the spiritual veins of the Riverheart Island also exploded.
The explosion of the Celestial Melody Pavilion's spiritual veins had already caused the earth to tremble and the waves to surge. The Talisman Treasure Sect followed suit and immediately triggered a chain reaction.
Subsequently, the three downstream sects also exploded, and the vibrations instantly merged into one, forming an even greater shock.
In the Coiling Dragon River, the river water surged tens of feet high, the riverbanks burst, and the raging flood began to wreak havoc in all directions.
For ordinary people, this kind of commotion was no different from doomsday.
A disaster of epic proportions arrived in an instant.
Even cultivators were affected. The violent spiritual energy converged into a storm, causing many low-level cultivators to suffocate.
It was like how humans need water to survive, but if they are submerged in water, they will drown.
At the same time, the spiritual energy storm caused by the explosion of the five spiritual veins made the spiritual energy between heaven and earth instantly become so dense that it became unbearable.
For a while, the entire realm of the Coiling Dragon River was filled with the agonizing cries of pain.
Those who are far away from the outbreak of spiritual energy can still save themselves, but those who are in places like the Celestial Melody Pavilion, where they are close to the explosion, are truly in a terrible situation.
Not only do they have to endure the impact caused by the turbulence of spiritual energy, but they are also affected by the chaotic earth energy.
When the earth energy counterflows and combines with spiritual energy, it becomes the most poisonous earth evil energy. Cultivators are completely unable to resist it. Even cultivators in the Divine Soul realm have to use all their abilities to protect themselves, leaving no energy to rescue others.
For a while, chaos erupted at the scene of the Celestial Melody Festival.
"How could this happen?"
Miao Qin didn't expect such serious consequences. With the example of the Sword Sect, even if the spiritual veins were damaged, it would only cause some vibrations. Even if the earth energy was chaotic, it would quickly recover.
She anticipated some damage, but she didn't expect it to be so severe.
Long Yi calmly said, "The spiritual veins of the Coiling Dragon River are actually a whole, like a piece of solid ice. If you create a crack in one place, there may only be a few cracks. But when the cracks reach a certain degree, the entire ice will shatter."
"You did this on purpose! What benefits do you gain from doing this?" Miao Qin exclaimed.
Long Yi shook his head but did not continue to explain.
He didn't like explaining too much to the dead.
Sometimes, he might have the leisure to say a few more words, but when it came to a critical moment, the main thing was still the important matter.
"Just wait. If you're lucky, you might know the reason before you die," Long Yi continued to transmit his voice to Miao Qin's heart. Then he waved his hand, releasing the aura of a Dao Integration expert, creating a safe area.
Long Yi loudly said, "Come to my side to avoid the invasion of the earth evil energy."
Upon hearing this, everyone felt relieved and grateful to Long Yi for saving them from the danger.
As for Miao Qin, who stood still and didn't say anything, no one paid much attention to her.
With Long Yi present, those who were weaker than him could only become supporting roles.
While they were grateful for Long Yi's kindness, they also despised the person who caused such chaos.
Since the incident happened until now, not much time had passed, but in this short period, many people died on the spot, and some fell into madness. Although they didn't die, they couldn't be considered alive either.
"Who is this madman? How dare they cause such turmoil? They want to destroy our foundation!" someone in the crowd exclaimed.
Among the crowd, the Perfected Beings Danhe and Xuan Ming both thought of a certain possibility and looked at Miao Qin at the same time.
When the spiritual veins of the Sword Sect were destroyed before, they suspected that the Celestial Melody Pavilion was involved, but Miao Qin managed to deceive them by saying that Yin Xun might have leaked the information to the Monster Race.
But today's situation was truly beyond their comprehension.
If Miao Qin was the one who did it, why would she blow up her own sect?
But if it wasn't Miao Qin, who could infiltrate the spiritual veins of the Celestial Melody Pavilion and cause an explosion right under her nose?
Xuan Ming and Danhe had a sense that something was not right, and those who were safe began to discuss the source of the turmoil.
Of course, Miao Qin Perfected Being should be the one responsible for this matter.
At this moment, Miao Qin's heart was filled with fear. She wasn't afraid of dying herself, but she was afraid of her actions being exposed, which would ruin the reputation of the Celestial Melody Pavilion.
In the future, when disciples of the Celestial Melody Pavilion traveled the world, they would be looked down upon by others.
Fortunately, Long Yi didn't make her reveal the truth but instead reassured everyone, saying, "The most urgent matter now is how to maintain the stability of the barrier. My old injuries haven't healed yet, and I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on for much longer."
Under the threat of life and death, everyone stopped searching for the culprit and started finding their own positions to help stabilize the barrier. Their appreciation for Long Yi also increased.
Long Yi, despite being seriously injured, still wanted to save them. He was truly a good person!
Miao Qin watched as Long Yi gained prestige, and her heart was filled with frustration. Everything was caused by Long Yi, yet he reaped the fame and let others bear all the consequences.
Miao Qin felt a sense of desolation in her heart, but she couldn't say anything. She couldn't even transmit her thoughts. She could only watch Long Yi's performance.
Under the joint efforts of everyone, the safety barrier became more and more stable, but the turbulence outside the barrier did not calm down. On the contrary, it became more and more intense... (End of this chapter)
