Kill Yun Qingwu!
General Mu had no idea what Yun Qingwu wanted, but the thought of killing her flashed past his mind as he watched her walk towards the gate.
Enrage the demons?
General Mu knew that the death of Yun Qingwu would cause the demons to go crazy, turning this into a massacre.
But, he also knew that...
If he could kill Yun Qingwu, it would be a huge loss to the demons.
”Ready!” General Mu raised his arm.
The war had begun. There was no use trying to butter up to the demons in an attempt to avoid the massacre that was about to follow.
As a brave soldier of the Southern Region...
General Mu was not afraid of death. None of the soldiers guarding the city were afraid to die. As such, there was only one thing left to do, take as many lives as they could before they fell.
They would kill and kill until they couldn't kill any longer.
Anyone who stepped forward...
Would die!
”Woosh woosh woosh...” All of the archers on the wall drew their bows when they saw General Mu's raised hand.
The arrow glimmered icily under the sun.
Yun Qingwu did not even skip a step. It was almost as if she didn't see it. She continued to walk towards the city, her dress dancing in the wind.
”Die!” General Mu did not hesitate any longer. Yun Qingwu had already entered into the range of the archers.
”Zoom!”
”Zoom zoom zoom!”
The sky was filled with arrows as the soared through the sky, homing down on Yun Qingwu's position.
At that very moment, a ray of blue light shone radiantly from the contingent at the front.
It had come from someone standing to the side of the black carriage. He was covered by a black cloak from head to toe, making it impossible for anyone to make out who he was.
Even so... no one dared to underestimate the power of this ray of light.
Because...
After a brief moment, it seemed to have disappeared. When it reappeared, it was already above Yun Qingwu.
Since the ancient days, people had believed that the sky was blue.
There was no need to confirm if the ray of blue light had actually disappeared, or if it had blended into the blue sky as it sailed through the air.
What was certain was that when it appeared on top of Yun Qingwu's head, it was sky blue.
The arrow rain sailed towards the ground.
It landed on the blue light, passing through it cleanly before the arrows lodged themselves in the ground.
”We hit our mark?!”
The Southern Region soldiers rejoiced when they saw the arrows in the ground. However, their excitement was short lived.
There was no blood on the tips of the arrows.
Yun Qingwu stopped for a while and looked up at the blue light above her head. Then, she looked at the arrows around her.
he continued to walk forward, taking care to step on the arrows, snapping them in half.
”What is going on?” The Southern Region soldiers were confused. They had no idea what had just happened, but they knew it had to do with the blue light.
General Mu's expression was pained as well.
”Die! Fire again!”
”Zoom zoom zoom...”
The sky was once again filled with a hail of arrows.
Just like before, the rain of arrows passed through the blue light and stabbed themselves into the ground.
It seemed like they hit their mark, but Yun Qingwu was still unharmed.
It was a strange sight.
”What the hell is going on?!”
”We definitely hit her, why is she unharmed?”
”That is impossible!”
All of the Southern Region soldiers could not understand what was happening. They saw the arrows pass through Yun Qingwu's body, but yet, she was unharmed.
”This... could it be...” General Mu's expression changed as he thought of a terrifying possibility.
”General, could it be...”
The eyes of the other generals widened at this thought. Some of them were in shock whilst others paled.
”It is!” General Mu's knuckles whitened as he clenched his fists. He could not accept that this was happening in front of his eyes. It was a terrifying thought.
All of the other generals gasped in horror when General Mu confirmed their suspicions.
Before this, they were simply stumped by what was happening. But now, knowing what the light was, they were terrified.
Because...
They finally understood what was happening.
From their vantage point, it looked as though the arrows pierced Yun Qingwu's body. However, if one was on the ground, one would see that the arrows disappeared briefly upon hitting the blue light.
In other words, the arrows were transported to a parallel dimension upon hitting the blue light. They went around Yun Qingwu before landing in the ground.
Not many people knew how this could be accomplished.
It was just like how most could not attain the level of sage.
Rebirth comprised six Daos.
Each of this was a powerful major Dao. Embedded within these major Daos were countless minor Daos. These minor Daos combined to give the major Daos, just like how countless streams will merge into the sea.
This was how most people tried to understand Dao.
They would first understand the minor Daos before moving on to the major Daos.
Of course...
There were exceptions.
Yan Xiu was one such exception.
Yan Xiu had understood the Dao of Asura. That being said, Natural Law also dictates that one cannot leapfrog to the top without the proper foundations.
Even though Yan Xiu understood the Dao of Asura...
He was not in the Rebirth State because he had not understood the thousands of other minor Daos.
It was as though you opened a huge door but the road ahead was tattered and broken. Even though you were at the door, the road was narrow and unwalkable.
As a result...
You couldn't open the door fully!
The moment you opened the door fully, the energy within would completely destroy the small road in front of you.
That was the situation Yan Xiu had found himself in.
Of course, this was a situation that many would give their lives to be in.
At the very least, Yan Xiu had already opened the door to the Dao of Asura. All that was left was for him to build on his foundation.
By understanding the Dao of Asura, Yan Xiu had already set one foot into the Rebirth State.
