The witch glow was gorgeous, enveloping the entire city. This was a kind of rule. Just as Xiang Fu said, outsiders found it hard to break through.
“Ye Chu…”
Seeing Ye Chu stand up and continue walking toward the witch glow, Ye Jingyun reached out to grab Ye Chu. “Do not take any more risks. The Witch Clan are such figures. If they do not let outsiders in, then it truly means only a supreme being can enter.”
“That is not necessarily so!” Ye Chu laughed. While Ye Jingyun was in a daze, his fingers suddenly began to move. In the void, countless green lotuses instantly appeared. As the green lotuses appeared, chaotic green qi surged upon them. The green light was dim and faint, striking toward the witch glow.
“Ye Chu!” Ye Jingyun was startled. She had not expected Ye Chu to be so bold. He had already been shaken until he spat blood, yet still had the guts to provoke the witch glow.
Ye Jingyun took Tan Miaotong and quickly retreated, fearing the witch glow’s surging power would harm Tan Miaotong. But after Ye Jingyun ran some distance, she discovered the witch glow’s ripples were constantly vibrating, yet showed no sign of erupting. Ye Chu’s green lotuses were actually slowly merging into the witch glow.
Ye Jingyun stopped her steps, looking in surprise at the green lotuses merging into the witch glow. These flowers merging into it one by one made everyone extremely surprised, unable to understand this was the power Ye Chu had erupted.
“How can this be?” Ye Jingyun stared intently at the green lotuses constantly merging into it.
Ye Chu smiled. When he struck just now, he had discovered the green lotuses could merge into it. This was what caused the witch glow to have ripples spreading out. Clearly it was due to his own law. With the terror of the witch glow, his own strength fundamentally could not shake it in the slightest. But his law was different. Taking non-rule as law, it could merge with ten thousand kinds of rules. Even the witch glow’s rules did not reject it.
Most importantly, Ye Chu had chaotic green qi to assist him. Chaotic green qi originally nurtured all things. It was one of the most peculiar items in the world. It mingled together with the green lotus, and this was what allowed the green lotus to merge into the witch glow.
As more and more green lotuses merged in, Ye Chu’s fingers continuously moved. He suddenly shouted, “Open!”
Under this shout, the witch glow split open a small gap. There, green light flickered. One could see if there were green lotus shadows appearing.
“It opened, it really opened!”
Everyone saw that small gap and was extremely excited. Every person clenched their fists, their palms full of cold sweat. This gap was still not enough for them to enter. Ye Chu would need to be capable of making the gap larger.
“Ye Chu…” Ye Jingyun opened her rosy lips, excitement and agitation coexisting in her eyes. This was the Witch Clan’s holy land. If they could really enter, even just to gaze upon it would suffice.
Green lotuses continuously surged out. Ye Chu’s fingers moved without cease. His primordial spirit power continuously drove his own law. Sweat poured out all over his forehead. Tan Miaotong, seeing this, helped Ye Chu wipe his sweat. Looking at the gap slowly growing larger, her heart was also extremely tense.
The glow remained brilliant, shining upon Ye Chu’s body, stretching his figure very long. There was not a single sound in the surroundings. The silence made people feel oppressed and nervous. Every person’s gaze fell upon Ye Chu. They even suppressed their breathing, fearing they would disturb Ye Chu, watching him continuously open the witch glow.
“Ye Chu, you must hold on!” Xiang Chunan prayed in his heart.
Ye Chu was already soaked in sweat at this point. Clearly, opening a gap was extremely difficult for him too. Time passed bit by bit. Everyone had a feeling that each day lasted like a year.
Under this feeling, Ye Chu finally opened the gap to about one metre in size. It was already sufficient for people to pass through.
“Ye Jingyun, take them and jump over. Remember not to touch the witch glow, otherwise all previous efforts will be wasted.” Ye Chu gritted his teeth, using his last bit of strength as he instructed Ye Jingyun.
“Yes!” Knowing time was precious at this moment, Ye Jingyun said nothing. She nodded and told Xiang Chunan’s group to follow her. She arrived at the side of the gap, bent her body and shot inside. After entering, she then called out to Xiang Chunan, “You must be careful when entering. Absolutely do not touch the witch glow. Otherwise you will come into contact with its rules, and by then you will not even know how you died.”
“Yes!” Xiang Chunan and the others also perked up their spirits, bent their bodies and jumped into the gap, crossing this thin layer of witch glow. Xiang Fu, with Ye Jingyun’s help, also crossed over.
Ye Chu gritted his teeth and persevered. Watching each person safely pass through, a smile also bloomed on his face.
“Ye Chu, quickly come in!” After Yang Hui also entered, Ye Jingyun called out to Ye Chu.
Ye Chu nodded. He reached out to embrace Tan Miaotong who stood beside him. Holding Tan Miaotong’s delicate and soft body, he shot horizontally toward this gap. Without Ye Chu’s support, this gap began to slowly shrink.
This made Ye Jingyun’s heart tighten with worry, fearing Ye Chu would have difficulty getting through. In just a few short breaths, this gap was already less than half a metre.
“Ye Chu…”
Xiang Chunan shouted anxiously. Just as he watched the witch glow seem like a blade that would cut Ye Chu and Tan Miaotong in two, the two had already stood beside him.
“That was close!” Ye Chu also clicked his tongue in amazement. Fortunately, he cultivated the Instant Wind Technique. Otherwise today he truly would have been hard-pressed to escape death. The witch glow’s rules were too terrifying. If it touched his physical body, his flesh would absolutely be shredded by it. After all, his physical body and his law were different.
“Were you frightened?” Ye Chu looked at Tan Miaotong whose face was also somewhat pale. He used his hand to gently touch her delicate face, comforting her with a smile.
A sticky red flush appeared on Tan Miaotong’s face, an indescribable charm, and she shyly shook her head. “A little bit scared. But now I am not afraid anymore!”
Ye Chu gently hugged Tan Miaotong. Looking at the witch glow that once again completely enveloped the city, he let out a light breath. With his own primordial spirit power, relying on chaotic green qi and his own law, he could only barely pull open a gap less than one metre. This witch glow’s rules were truly terrifying.
This was merely merging the green lotus into it to affect its rules and split open a gap. If he used forceful strikes, even a thousand or hundred times more would not be able to blast open a one-metre gap.
“We entered, we really entered!” Xiang Fu had a kind of unreal feeling. This city that the Witch Clan people had been unable to enter for countless years, yet their generation had entered it.
Among the Witch Clan people, some wailed, some kowtowed, some beat the ground… each one fell into frenzy. The city they had anticipated and pursued for countless years, at this moment was truly before their eyes. This made their hearts collapse at this moment.
Ye Chu did not stop their venting. He let them fall into frenzy. He watched Xiang Fu kowtow to the city until his head bled, yet did not step forward to help.
Ye Chu and the other three stood there, waiting for this group of people to finish venting.
Watching each person’s emotions return to normal, Ye Jingyun then spoke. “Village Chief, let us enter the city and take a look. For all these years, have you not wanted to step into your clan’s ancestral land?”
“Yes! Yes! Let us go quickly!” Xiang Fu nodded excitedly, walking quickly toward the city.
