PFC Chapter 84 Listening to the Rain at Night
Chapter 84 Listening to the Rain at Night
Panic-stricken shouts rang out one after another.
The entire Cape of the Sea instantly went on high alert.
Upon hearing the sound, Green Ivy and Gongsun Chang rushed to the high altitude of the back mountain.
Looking down at the Cold Abyss Prison, shrouded in malevolent energy and shrouded in fierce light, both of them wore extremely solemn expressions.
"It's even faster than expected. The power of this kid's rampage is far beyond imagination."
Gongsun Chang said in a deep voice, circulating his spiritual energy, ready to suppress it at any moment.
"If we let him continue like this, the entire array at the Cape of the Sea will be torn apart, and the evil spirits in the nearby seas will be attracted by the fierce energy, which will bring endless trouble."
Green Ivy's gaze was fixed on the lonely yet ferocious figure in the center of the cell, her tone calm:
"He is still resisting."
"Look closely, deep within his soul, there is still consciousness holding on. He has not been completely devoured by his bestial nature; it's just that the three forces are out of balance and temporarily out of control."
Only by sensing it up close can one perceive that beneath that overwhelming ferocity, a faint yet incredibly resilient aura of the divine soul is struggling to hold on.
Ten years of trials in hell had already made his spirit far surpass that of ordinary people.
Even when on the verge of collapse, they will not easily succumb to complete despair.
"The Earth Rat's Mind-Concentrating Essence will take another half an hour to fully form."
Green Ivy raised her hand, and a wisp of cool, yin energy gathered at her fingertips.
"I will go in first and use my own Yin energy to temporarily stabilize his heart meridian, delaying him for half an hour. Once the ointment is ready, it will be able to completely suppress his violent energy and restore balance to his body."
"No!"
Gongsun Chang immediately stopped him.
"At this moment, he is delirious, brimming with ferocity, and utterly ruthless. His elemental powers are in chaos. If you approach rashly, you are highly likely to be devoured by his malevolent energy, or even attacked!"
"Don't underestimate me, Senior Gongsun."
Green Ivy's figure transformed into a cold, fleeting shadow. Before anyone could dissuade her, she broke through layers of malevolent energy and stepped into the shattered, frigid prison.
The wind was chilling and the evil spirits were bone-deep.
Even high-level cultivators at the edge of the sea would find it difficult to withstand such violent ancient aura for long.
When Ao Han and Ao Shuang, the brother and sister, saw the berserk Ye Tingyu, they were both extremely surprised.
"I never expected this kid to be so terrifying when he lost control," Ao Shuang said.
He was unaware that the current madness caused by Ye Tingyu was not solely due to the power of Chiqiong.
A green figure came into view.
Green Ivy's steps were steady, and a gentle spiritual aura surrounded her, completely dispelling the surrounding evil energy.
She walked step by step toward the figure of the boy whose body was covered in blood-red markings.
As Ye Tingyu sensed the approaching stranger, her scarlet vertical pupils suddenly locked onto the newcomer. Her aura of malevolence suddenly condensed, transforming into a sharp, malevolent blade, carrying a ferocious power capable of tearing everything apart, and pierced straight into Green Luo's heart.
These blades of energy were cold, ruthless, and merciless.
This is the purest form of ferocious beastly instinctual killing.
Green Ivy was prepared and nimbly dodged to the side, avoiding a fatal blow.
At the same time, he made a hand seal with his fingertips, and several vines rose up from his feet to bind him.
"Listening to the rain at night, I woke up."
Her voice was clear and cold, piercing through the murderous aura and reaching the boy's confused ears.
"Guard your mind, don't let the anger consume you, I will save you."
As she finished speaking, she formed a hand seal.
The ancient prison-suppressing runes inherited from the Cape of the Sea slowly emerged.
Pale blue patterns floated in mid-air, transforming into layers of shackles that slowly wrapped around Ye Tingyu's body.
The Prison Suppression Mark is specifically designed to suppress all ferocious and malevolent creatures in the world. As it descended layer by layer, it temporarily suppressed some of his rampaging ferocity, causing his violently trembling body to calm down slightly.
However, Chi Qiong's original power was too overwhelming, and coupled with the hellish energy, the suppression of the Ancient Hell-Suppressing Runes was merely a drop in the ocean.
next moment.
Ye Tingyu suddenly raised his head and let out a low, hoarse roar.
His body continued to expand, his blood patterns surged, and an even more terrifying ferocious power erupted, forcefully shattering the ancient pattern shackles around him.
The broken patterns turned into specks of blue light and dissipated. The recoil caused Green Ivy to stumble, and she felt a slight tightness in her chest.
In a berserk state, Ye Tingyu raised her hands again, her fists carrying a destructive aura, smashing down with extreme brutality, regardless of technique.
There are no sophisticated techniques or complicated spells.
It is merely a pure burst of physical strength and the power of ferocious beasts, yet it possesses terrifying power to tear apart mountains and shatter metal and stone.
This is Ye Tingyu's true fighting power.
The power that is usually suppressed can be completely unleashed once it is fully released, enough to crush all cultivators of the same realm.
Even a seasoned powerhouse like Gongsun Chang would find it extremely difficult to confront him head-on.
Green Ivy calmly responded, her movements fluid as she moved between the gaps in the malevolent energy, constantly using her yin energy to buffer the attacks.
"When this kid goes berserk, none of the three forces will submit to the others, which is really troublesome."
The vines break and grow back, clinging tightly to the night rain.
While restraining him, Green Ivy observed the flow of power within his body.
She clearly saw that the hellish energy was the foundation, stabilizing the physical body and resisting the laws;
Chi Qiong's ferocity is a sharp blade, violent and domineering, with extreme destructive power;
His own spiritual energy for cultivation had already been squeezed to almost nothing by the two different forces, and was on the verge of collapse.
To save him, it's not enough to just suppress the ferocious beast.
Furthermore, it is necessary to harmonize the three forces and reshape the damaged meridians and Dao heart.
Half an hour is a life-or-death delay.
Outside the prison, Gongsun Chang sat high in the sky, constantly on guard to prevent Ye Tingyu from breaking through the forbidden area and rushing towards the living area at the corner of the sea. At the same time, he kept urging the alchemy elder to speed up the process.
The sea of clouds surged, and the sea breeze howled.
The turmoil atop the cape is fraught with undercurrents and lurking dangers.
Inside the prison, the fighting and stalemate continued.
Night Rain's attacks grew increasingly frenzied, and her reason became increasingly blurred.
But every time it was about to completely succumb, that last vestige of consciousness would desperately break free from the control of its bestial nature, leaving a sliver of leeway so that it wouldn't kill Green Ivy.
This subconscious restraint is subtle yet real.
Time passed by, second by second.
As the sun sinks below the horizon and twilight completely envelops the cape.
A rich aroma of medicine wafted slowly from the ancient alchemy room.
The Mind-Concentrating Yin Ointment, which combines the original flesh and blood of the Earth Rat, century-old Yin materials, and the patterns of the Prison Suppression, has finally been refined.
The Concentrating Yin Ointment can dispel evil spirits, calm the heart, harmonize different elements, and stabilize the soul.
The opportunity to save Ye Tingyu has arrived.
…………
…………
The moment the Concentrating Yin Ointment was formed.
A wisp of warm, thick, pale golden medicinal mist, imbued with the essence of the earth, broke through the seal of the alchemy room, pierced through layers of surging black evil energy, and leisurely drifted towards the Cold Abyss Prison behind the mountain.
That aura was extremely peculiar; it was neither fierce nor ruthless, neither malevolent nor evil.
It also possesses the peaceful power of mountains and rivers, and the inclusiveness of the earth.
It perfectly restrained Chi Qiong's innate bloodlust and violence.
It can better neutralize the desolate and cold atmosphere of hell.
High in the sky.
Gongsun Chang, who had been on edge, suddenly brightened up and said in a deep voice:
"It's done! The primordial medicinal power of the Earth Core Rat has been completely condensed, and the ancient Prison Suppression runes have been perfectly integrated. Once this medicine is produced, it will definitely suppress the rampaging ferocity!"
Inside the prison.
The green ivy is caught in a fierce struggle.
Ye Tingyu's attack had become extremely violent, with blood-red beast patterns crawling all over his face and his vertical pupils as red as blood.
His murderous aura solidified into a tangible form, transforming into countless black claws that tore at everything in all directions.
His actions were completely devoid of any rational restraint.
Every punch and every palm strike is simply the unleashing of all the power of the flesh and the essence of the ferocious beast, without any rules or methods, a pure venting of the life instinct for slaughter.
The green ivy takes in everything and understands everything perfectly.
Just then.
The warm, earthy medicinal energy seeped into the prison, slowly enveloping the entire area of raging malevolent energy.
Originally, it was a wild and rampant, unrestrained, and vicious aura.
The moment they touched the medicinal fragrance, it was as if ice and snow had met warmth; they subconsciously began to retreat and subside, and the restless and fierce fluctuations subsided at a visible speed.
Ye Tingyu, who was immersed in a berserk state, suddenly stiffened.
The ferocious beast's lingering resentment that roared wildly in his mind seemed to be suppressed by an invisible hand. The ear-piercing roar suddenly subsided, and the violent rage that had been burning his soul also subsided by more than half.
The disordered and colliding meridians gained a brief respite.
"The time has come."
Green Ivy's eyes narrowed, and she no longer hesitated.
With a wave of his hand, several streaks of green vines shot out into the air.
It was not the Thorn Killing Vines that had previously bound ferocious beasts, but the Spirit Locking Vines that the Cape of the Sea had specifically used to bind and suppress alien species.
The Soul-Locking Vine is both flexible and resilient, possessing no lethality, but only capable of sealing power.
The Soul-Locking Vine precisely wrapped around Ye Tingyu's limbs, intertwining layer upon layer and slowly tightening, temporarily restraining his violent movements with the earth's yin energy.
The sudden restraints instantly stimulated the remaining bestial instincts.
Ye Tingyu suddenly raised her head, letting out a low, suppressed roar. The blood-red patterns on her body surged again, and her prison energy and baleful aura erupted simultaneously, trying to forcefully break free from the vines that bound her.
"Don't resist."
Green Ivy took light steps, slowly approaching the menacing aura that was rushing towards her.
"This is a calming yin ointment made from the essence of the earth rat. It can soothe the violent energy in your body, repair the broken heart meridians, and harmonize the hellish energy and the bloodline of ferocious beasts."
Roar--
The night was filled with the incessant roar of the rain.
As the distance closed infinitely, Green Ivy could clearly see the struggle deep in the boy's eyes.
Taking advantage of this brief stalemate, Gongsun Chang arrived through the air, holding in his palm a paste that was dark earth-colored with faint golden patterns.
It is the Mind-Concentrating Yin Ointment!
Whether you can stay calm and get through this final hurdle depends entirely on yourself.
The words fell.
Gongsun Chang activated his spiritual power at his fingertips, and the concentrated Yin Essence transformed into a stream of light, precisely landing on Ye Tingyu's chest.
The moment the ointment touches the skin, it melts and penetrates instantly, transforming into a gentle and lingering warm current that flows rapidly into the damaged heart meridians along the blood vessels and meridians.
hum-
A rich and steady power of the earth spread out instantly.
The heart meridians, which had been shattered by the icy needles and torn apart by the malevolent energy, were slowly repaired and healed at a visible speed under the nourishment of the earth's essence.
Those cracked meridians corroded by the evil aura of the dead, and flesh and muscles frozen by the deathly energy of hell.
Everything was enveloped, soothed, and nourished by this gentle force.
The most violent and restless Chi Qiong's ferocity was completely suppressed first.
Like a raging fire meeting cold earth, the rampant blood-red ferocity gradually faded away.
The bloodthirsty remnants entrenched in the meridians were enveloped, refined, and dissolved by the power of the earth.
The black, malevolent energy that had been sweeping across the sky began to recede rapidly, returning to Ye Tingyu's body.
The hellish energy, originally cold and desolate, constantly eroding life, has now been neutralized by the earth's medicinal power, shedding its destructive attributes and transforming into a wisp of calm dark energy, quietly dormant deep within the dantian, no longer rampaging recklessly.
The fatal conflict of three opposing forces was finally forcibly suppressed.
Green Ivy seized the opportunity and infused the earth's power into its body, guiding the three forces to circulate continuously.
"Well……"
Ye Tingyu shuddered violently, her tense body suddenly relaxing.
The violent force within him dissipated instantly, and the crimson in his eyes faded at an extremely rapid pace.
His legs went slightly weak, and he almost stumbled and fell to the ground.
He barely managed to steady himself by leaning against the broken rock wall behind him.
His head was covered in cold sweat, which soaked through his hair.
The tattered white clothes clung tightly to her thin back.
My whole body aches and hurts unbearably.
It felt as if I had just gone through a grueling, transformative ordeal.
A long time passed.
Night Listening to the Rain: Her cloudy, unfocused pupils gradually regained their clarity.
Reason, which had been clouded by the ferocious beast, slowly returned to control.
……
……
A long silence enveloped the cold, abyss-like prison.
Green Ivy stood quietly not far away, withdrawing the yin energy surrounding her, and calmly sized up the boy in front of her.
Shedding his violent and ferocious demeanor, Ye Tingyu reverted to his former slender, aloof demeanor as a young man.
At this moment, however, his face was as pale as paper, his breathing was weak and disordered, all his strength had been completely drained, and his eyes held an undisguised weariness and loneliness.
Ten years of torment in hell, the backlash from the ferocious beast's bloodline, and the tearing apart of three forces had already taken a toll on his body and mind.
Gongsun Chang withdrew his defensive spiritual energy, let out a long sigh of relief, and his expression was complicated:
"Fortunately, things have stabilized. The Earth Core Rat's original medicinal power has taken perfect effect, suppressing Chi Qiong's rampaging ferocity by 70%, repairing most of his shattered heart meridians, and balancing the hellish energy. There will be no risk of him exploding again in the short term."
"But this is not a long-term solution."
Green Ivy spoke softly, revealing the key point.
"The Concentrated Yin Ointment can only treat the symptoms, not eliminate the underlying problems. The root of the Chiqiong is still rooted in your flesh and blood, and the hellish energy has long been integrated with your soul. The fundamental nature of the three opposing forces remains unchanged."
"In the future, whenever the yin energy is at its peak during a full moon, or when it encounters the righteous energy or the light of Buddhism to restrain it, the power in the body will still become unbalanced and restless."
Within six months at most, the resentment will build up again and retaliate, at which point a stronger method of control will be needed.
Ye Tingyu slowly raised her eyes.
His dark eyes were calm and still, showing neither the relief of surviving a disaster nor the lingering fear of being in deep danger, but only a numbness and indifference after experiencing too much suffering.
He nodded slightly, his voice hoarse and dry, carrying the weakness of someone who had been unleashing their power for a long time:
Thank you.
Two simple words express all my gratitude.
"No need to thank me."
The green ivy responded indifferently.
"Saving you is partly due to sect considerations, but also personal motives. You bear the secrets of the Gates of Hell and hold the legacy of the Reverse Sea Sect Master. Your existence is crucial to the future of the Xuanwu Sect."
"I'll only ask you one question."
She looked directly into Ye Tingyu's eyes, her words clear and distinct:
"Back then, what exactly did you see through the Gates of Hell? Did you see the Sect Master of the Reverse Sea?"
