Checking in for 100,000 Years Chapter 1031: Black Bug Wave
Previously on Checking in for 100,000 Years...
An enormous hand extended from within a mysterious dimension, its mere appearance causing perturbations in the surrounding void. The Yin-Yang Qi surged and converged towards this colossal hand. Within the void, a fleeting spectral hand seal traversed spatial layers, fiercely attempting to seize an unseen target. "Yin and Yang Old Ghost, I will not lay a hand on that True God-stage brat, and neither should you!" A frigid voice echoed from the depths of the Yin Yang Cave, and a gargantuan, illusory dragon claw materialized in the void. Boom! The dragon claw, as immense as a mountain, descended with force, obliterating the spectral giant hands. "You spiteful demon dragon, how dare you interfere with my affairs!" The mysterious figure seethed with indignation, unleashing a barrage of continuous attacks towards a specific location. Boom, boom... Once again, the spectral dragon claw emerged, repeatedly clashing with the immense hand, producing earth-shattering roars. The illusory dragon claw and the spectral giant hands battled across vast distances, flickering in and out of existence. For an instant, the confrontation reached a stalemate, neither side able to gain the upper hand. "You damned demon dragon, do not force me to activate the grand formation to eliminate you!" the mysterious figure bellowed furiously. "Do you believe this dragon is here for a mere meal? If you seek death, I shall happily oblige!" the mysterious demon dragon retorted with a sneer, his tone dripping with disdain, utterly unfazed by the Yin and Yang Old Ghost's threat. Their protracted battle, spanning millions of years, had forged a deep familiarity between them. After a brief exchange of heated words, both parties implicitly agreed to cease hostilities. The depths of the Yin Yang Cave gradually returned to their former silence. However. The ambient atmosphere remained turbulent, with Yin and Yang storms swirling like tempests, sweeping back and forth with formidable intensity. Amidst the tempest. Countless peculiar black and white creatures lurked, each possessing immense size and an appearance of extreme danger. The sounds of their internecine conflict resonated from afar, audible to those outside. As Ye Yun stood upon the Celestial Boat, he too perceived these sounds. He cast a casual glance, his eyebrows lifting slightly, a thoughtful expression gracing his features. "Who is engaged in combat within? Could it be the other hall masters?" Cang Ming mused aloud, gazing into the depths of the Yin Yang Cave. "Perhaps." Ye Yun offered a slight smile and resumed his observation of the surroundings. He was searching for a source of Yin energy to fortify the black orb, intending to alleviate his junior sister's constant anxieties. The Celestial Boat continued its journey, and a faint buzzing sound emanated from the void ahead. "What is that?" A dark ocean materialized in the expanse before them. This black expanse, densely packed, was composed of innumerable black beetles. Each beetle, roughly the size of a grindstone, was encased in black, spiked armor that emitted a faint, dark luster. Their eyes gleamed with a predatory intensity. It appeared these creatures perceived the inhabitants of the Ninth Hall as a delectable feast. "Prepare for battle!" Upon witnessing the approaching wave of black beetles, Cang Ming's expression shifted dramatically. He waved his hand, issuing a command. The disciples of the Ninth Hall immediately drew their weapons and mystical items, their faces etched with tension as they entered a state of readiness. Despite their fierce nature as members of the Demon Clan, the sight of the endless black beetle swarm instilled terror and despair due to their overwhelming numbers. Although the majority of these black beetles possessed cultivation at the True God Realm, their sheer multitude rendered them exceedingly difficult to eliminate. "Senior brother..." As she observed the teeming black beetles, Gu Anran's face contorted in horror. She seemed on the verge of speaking but hesitated. "Junior sister, have no fear. These black bug waves are also formed from Yin-Yang Energy; they all fall within the scope of my divine abilities..." Ye Yun reassured her, patting her shoulder with a gentle smile. "Oh." Gu Anran nodded, though her eyes still betrayed unease. The previous green vines were stationary, rooted to the ground. In contrast, the black bug wave before them possessed immense mobility, exhibiting incredible speed, formidable defenses, and a ferocious disposition. Even with the extraordinary mystical properties of his black and white orbs, could they contend with such a vast horde of black beetles? This question weighed heavily on Gu Anran's heart, fueling her worry. Ye Yun understood his junior sister's apprehension. Whish, whish... Without further hesitation, he moved his hands once more, causing the black and white orbs suspended above his head to surge forward immediately. The colossal white orb, resembling a miniature mountain, positioned itself as a bulwark in the front. The black bug wave surged forward. The white orb began to spin rapidly, emitting an indescribably potent suction force, drawing in the oncoming tide of black beetles. Simultaneously, the black orb commenced its rotation around the white orb. A mysterious Yin-Yang balancing force radiated outwards in rippling waves.
The previously fierce black beetles, subjected to the balancing power of the Yin-Yang Reverse Jue, dissolved into trails of black light, soaring into the black orb.
The black orb began to rapidly expand.
"Truly astonishing!"
Cang Ming, witnessing this incredible spectacle, was overwhelmed with emotion and couldn't help but voice his amazement.
While possessing some intelligence, mastering this divine skill was no easy feat for just anyone.
Cang Ming was acutely aware of this fact.
The black and white orbs, embodying Yin and Yang energies, successfully sealed off the void and drew in the swarm of black insects, halting them like a vast ocean.
"This Yin-Yang Reverse Jue found within the Yin Yang Cave is indeed an exceptional cultivation technique..."
Observing the unfolding events.
A faint smile touched Ye Yun's lips.
Even with a magical artifact or other divine skills, blocking the entirety of the bug wave here would have been impossible.
After all, this wave of black insects was composed of Yin energy.
Coming into contact with the Yin-Yang Reverse Jue, they were like encountering their ultimate nemesis, causing their movements to become sluggish and docile.
As the black beetles vanished, the black orb grew progressively larger.
Soon, its size became comparable to that of the white orb.
In the void, the black and white orbs spun like twin miniature mountains, orbiting each other and radiating potent waves of energy.
The rate at which the black bug wave diminished accelerated.
In less than two hours.
Not a single black beetle remained.
Aboard the Celestial Boat, the disciples of the Ninth Hall were left in utter disbelief, having witnessed this miracle with their own eyes.
At this juncture.
Their reverence for Ye Yun, a cultivator at the Third Level of the True God Realm, deepened considerably.
Without Ye Yun, the swarm of black beetles would have inflicted severe losses upon them, perhaps even leading to their complete annihilation.
Yet, Ye Yun had resolved the perilous situation without a single drop of blood shed, leaving them entirely unharmed and uninvolved.
They had to concede their immense good fortune.
Overjoyed, as the final few black bugs disappeared, all the disciples of the Ninth Hall erupted in cheers.
"Senior Brother, you absolutely must teach me this cultivation technique!"
Gu Anran grasped Ye Yun's arm, pleading with affection.
"No problem, I'll teach it to you right now."
Ye Yun smiled and gently tapped her forehead, which felt like soft, smooth jade.
He then proceeded to impart the Yin-Yang Reverse Jue to his junior sister.
Gu Anran closed her eyes, commencing her comprehension of this remarkable cultivation technique.
Noticing her earnestness.
Ye Yun let out a soft chuckle, then thoughtfully raised an eyebrow, casting a fleeting glance in a specific direction.
