Emperor's Domination (Web Novel)-Chapter 6483: Looking Back

“Initially, Luminous controlled the changes of this grand dao but something changed, a power unfamiliar to us became involved.” Creek King said: “However, Luminous thought that this power could help him break through extinguishment.”

“The abyss’ been waiting for this moment.” Li Qiye said.

“Yes.” She was sure of it: “This power must have been infected with evil without our knowledge. As it grew stronger, so did Luminous. Not long after this, something changed with the spring. Visual phenomena appeared as it changed with death and ghastly affinity, even the immortal affinity. It was extremely unstable but Luminous believed these were the signs of surpassing the bottleneck.”

“In our eyes, he fell into craziness. Thus, I and the others used the sect’s grand momentum to suppress his dao power, wanting to pull him back.” The memories of those days didn’t fade in the slightest.

“When faced with our suppression, the evil power erupted and bit back against us. The grand momentum shattered and everyone couldn’t escape.” She had a sad expression as she spoke: “It was my fault, I shouldn’t have agreed with the creation of the spring. They had no chance because they were so connected with it.”

“It was your sect’s entire vitality, the only way to endure this power without exploding. The abyss was happy to see all of you grow stronger. You were just not aware of the heavy price.” Li Qiye said.

“Everything was destroyed.” She cried bitterly as Orchid Sage embraced and whispered words of comfort into her ear.

“Finally, the disciples were drained and I was the last person standing. I used various dao techniques but couldn’t stop him. He pierced my chest and drained my vitality. My true fate was nearly drained.” She trembled.

“And you can just in time.” Li Qiye smiled at Orchid Sage while Creek King took a moment to calm down.

“My immortal artifact reacted, so I ran there.” Orchid Sage smiled wryly.

“Emperor Xi’s Idyllic Flute.” Li Qiye said.

“Yes, Sacred Teacher. The immortal was so kind as to leave it to me.” Orchid Sage nodded.

“As if you care about an immortal’s favor.” Li Qiye said.

“I was foolish and didn’t progress at all, unable to understand the treasure’s mysteries.” He smiled awkwardly.

“A fool can become a master of all things and be selected as the successor?” Li Qiye said.

He had no response because his talent was impeccable. Moreover, he had one of the three immortal artifacts, Idyllic Flute.

It was perfect for him since he was a master of the arts. The same couldn’t be said about other cultivators.

The legacy started with Gao Yang and was passed down to Emperor Zheng. He, who was the next in line, passed it to Luminous Master instead. Perhaps he was the only one who knew the reason behind his refusal.

“What happened next?” Li Qiye asked.

“I arrived and witnessed the desperate situation. I lent her the flute since it has a melody capable of suppressing any disaster and evil.” He said.

“My cultivation was not enough. Orchid taught me the melodies but I couldn’t be of use.” Creek King said.

“You looked down on the evil, a few notes couldn’t have suppressed it. Perhaps there was a tiny chance if you had gone all out at the start. Once it fully erupted, that was it.” Li Qiye said.

“I thought too highly of myself.” Orchid nodded with a sad expression: “If I had been more cautious, maybe all of this could have been avoided.”

“It wasn’t your fault, you tried your best.” Creek King said softly.

“I did more research later and still couldn’t remove this evil entirely, only to nearly die from it. This dao power and mysteries were beyond my imagination and understanding.” Orchid smiled wryly.

“Where did you think it come from?” Li Qiye asked.

“Not from the mortal world.” Orchid said: “Its source didn’t come from this world or might have existed before it. I’m sure it must have been from an immortal.”

“You are right about that.” Li Qiye nodded.

“Which immortal is it, Sacred Teacher?” Orchid asked for confirmation.

“Fiendish Ground.” Li Qiye said.

“Fiendish Ground!” Creek King blurted.

“I see.” Orchid took a deep breath: “So it was Fiendish Ground.”

“Our Luminous Creek is so far from Fiendish Ground, there was no connection.” Creek King didn’t know how they had provoked Fiendish Ground.

“Just a matter of the abyss looking back.” Li Qiye said.
