Celestial Peak

594  The End I

The Abyss shook as Aether felt the pain of the eradicating blast of qi from Bai Xue. The pillar of light extended to the non-existent skies and beyond.

"AAAAAAAAHHHH! GET AWAY FROM ME! YOU VILE WRETCH!"

A powerful blast of energy exploded from Aether's body. The powerful blast of vile malicious energy landed on Bai Xue. This energy was deemed as Abyssal Qi and sometimes Death Qi was powerful. Like a tsunami that could swallow an entire world.

The giant beast that was Bai Xue was swallowed whole. Disappearing from his sight. Almost immediately, Aether tried to gain distance, to regain himself to prepare his fight against the two incarnations of the progenitor of reality.

He surveyed his surroundings, awaiting Wang Ling's interference, [That bastard is as cunning as he's strong. He's not below sneaking up on me and—what the?]

But Wang Ling did not move; he remained standing hundreds of meters away. Watching from afar, observing…no he was doing something else. Not even caring for Aether, [He abandoned the fight?]

"Weak."

HONG!

The Abyss as those words echoed. From the rampaging wave of the Abyssal Qi came the voice of a woman. And behind the rolling wave of Abyssal Qi glowed a red light, "Hey… why are you weaker now than just a moment ago?"

Within the Aether created a barrier around and tried to get away. But, soon he found himself face to face with a woman bearing nine tails. Her hair was like blood and her eyes gleaming with power.

CRASH!

The barrier shattered like a sheet of glass.

Aether's eyes widened in shock and horror, [She's… too trong.]

He was well aware of Bai Xue's strength. When Wang Ling killed himself and took Aether with him, only Xue remained. He expected her to become strong. But, at this moment, inside the Abyss, with her qi still suppressed, she was tearing through his power like she was playing with a mere cultivator.

[I knew I was taking a risk by keeping her alive. But, I didn't think she would become so strong.] A hand appeared before Aether and behind those fingers lies glowing red eyes.

Before the man who destroyed the world was the Grand Majesty of the beast lying low.

She had been waiting, gathering her strength to regain the former glory her previous incarnation possessed. "ACK! Let me go!"

Grabbing Aether by the face, Bai Xue dragged him to the ground.

"Gah!

 He bounced on the cold hard floor like it was made of rubber. Aether tried to recover, but before he could even reassess the flow of his qi, Bai Xue grabbed his leg.

"GIVE ME BACK MY DAUGHTER!" BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM! BAM!

Aether was smashed on the ground like a ragdoll being played with. Coughing up purple blood, Aether felt a shockwave all over his body.

He was thrown up into the air and as he looked down. All he saw was the tip of the nine tails gathered and pointed in the middle of Bai Xue's mouth. The Qi within her finished its circulation even before Aether could think of a way to counter attack.

"Fucking… monsters the both of you."

His words left his mouth and the unobstructed power of Bai Xue was unleashed, shaking the foundation of the Abyss. Wang Ling watched from a distance. The radiating light from Bai Xue's light was terrifying even for him who was supposed to be her counterpart.

[...I can't make her angry. At least not until I completely mastered this power] at least five kilometers away was Wang Ling contemplating on how he should master the gift he was given. He was already strong enough to toy with a Primordial creature like Lixus but compared to Bai Xue he was lacking, [I grow stronger faster than I anticipated…yet there are still people right above me… or rather, there's a fox right on top of me. In all sense… hehe.]

Wang Ling had already discarded his mortality. He was no longer a cultivator and was instead someone who embodied concepts. [I can try and think about it. But I will just be wasting my time. Xue's stamina is limited here. But, that doesn't mean she'll lose everything with this one blast.]

Instead of joining again, Wang Ling had a more important role to play. And that's finding his daughter. He sent out a wave of his qi and tried sensing many different things. He saw many things. But at the same time not a lot of things. Which was equally concerning, The questions in his mind suddenly became rampant at the confusion. [This is the Abyss. How come I cannot feel anything in this world? Where are the Abyssal Demons? The Revenants? How come there are so little of the—]

Then it was at that moment when a new feeling entered his radar. There were four kinds of people suddenly approaching their location at an impressive speed. Three of them he could recognize. Wang Yue and Wang Hong, they moving fast and were about to be met by a number of Revenants. The Revenants were at the level of Kings, but Wang Ling did not mind them. He was aware of the strength the two possessed. He trusted his siblings. However, in the far distance, there were two others. They were moving faster than Wang Hong. And around them were Revenants and Abyssal Demons moving along them from a distance as if they were watching and observing from the side.

One of these two was Chang Ping. It was different from her normal signature. But it was clear that it belonged to Chang Ping's because of the similarities in WAng Ling's intent.

The other qi also belonged to someone familiar. Someone very close to Wang Ling. Closer than anyone in this world. [This… this can't be. No… how?] Nôv(el)B\\jnn

He knew who it was. But he didn't want to believe it. Quickly, he turned his head due west with fear and anxiety. His heart was in trepidation and from the distance he heard a voice that could only be compared to the howl of banshees and death. "Fa—Fatherrrrrrrrr~"

"Qinyang?"

What Wang Ling witnessed over his shoulder was the image of his daughter. Corrupted by the Abyss fighting against Chang Ping.
