Maiden Of The Splitting Moon Chapter 80

Ming Yue's ears perked up to her words . After thinking for so long, she realized that no normal method could be utilized against a person's soul . Not to mention she knew nothing about it . Xuan Yin was a bit more experienced in this, considering she was mentored by her grandfather, a well known expert .

"This might work but I'm not sure" Xuan Yin was still hesitant about speaking, clearly this had a flaw to it .

"There is this technique that my grandfather uses when he hunts strong beasts", she began to describe and explain this wondrous skill .

"By infusing two arrows with inner force, they must hit the head and the heart . Doing so will allow the energy to invade the body and enter the core where the soul lies . Once it reaches the soul, the energy from the arrows will wreck havoc on the soul by going berserk . It is similar to my skill, the Four Sins . If the technique is successful, the victim would lose their mind and ultimately become an empty shell . However, if the beast can withstand the strike, they would still sustain damage to the soul . This could have a number of effects such as memory loss and a decrease in cultivation . "

This seemed much easier then trying to find a item to trap the soul . Such things were too rare to find but this technique had solved their issue .

However, Ming Yue did not smile or feel relieved .

"What is problem with it?" she asked .

Xuan Yin hesitated to speak but explained the issue, "I'm not confident in executing it . Chances are, it could damage his soul but erasing it is much harder . The energy within the arrows must be controlled during the technique or else it would just mindlessly move around . Furthermore, If we shoot him, I do not think the rest of the Zhao Family would be too happy . Only the two of us know his true nature . I doubt Liqiu would believe us if we told her that her father was taken over by a demon . "

AdvertisementThis was certainly an issue . Fighting him would be simple but doing so in front of everyone would be difficult . Perhaps it would be possible during the chaos of battle but even then, someone would notice them . Once they subdue him, they would be assaulted by everyone, the Zhao for attacking their "patriarch" and the Yong and Shi due to Ling Xue .

"Do you think you can do it?" Ming Yue asked .

"I'm unsure but we have to try . "

They prepared until night passed and went out to a branch of the Jade Dragon Pavilion . Neither women were sure that they could stop the demon soul completely . Thus they sent out a letter to the capital city, explaining the situation and asking for help . Furthermore, a plan was formed in regards to attacking the demon discreetly .

With everything in order, they spent the next few days monitoring everyone while awaiting a message from the capital city .

During this time, tension had begin to grow throughout the continent . The High Council's castle was filled . Thirteen figures knelt in front of seven thrones, awaiting their orders .

The seven members of the High Council spoke out, a booming voice filled the halls .

"An Ri has come back with the last seal . "

"The formations are now complete . Inform all nations that everything will begin two days from now when the auspicious time arrives . "

"You thirteen messengers will be tasked to defend the teleportation circles as they are activated . If the demon or beast cultivators attack . . . kill them . "

"Yes! High Council, we will obey!" they voiced their agreement and quickly set off to prepare .

Following their commands, the countries and kingdoms closest to the teleportation circles prepared for battle . Even if that was not the case, they needed to maintain some degree of vigilance . The hustle and bustle of their cities were replaced with the sound of metal and horses as armies marched toward the circles .

There were four teleportation circles placed on four ends of the continent and each one was surrounded by thousands upon thousands of warriors . Two were linked with the demon continent while the others were linked to the beast continent . From the armies of nations to numerous sects tasked with protecting their home . They stood silently waiting for the circles to activate . Accompanied with them, were the messengers, split into four groups to oversee and speak with the incoming races .

The High Council disappeared from their castle, reappearing into seven different points . Circling their energy, symbols emerged from their bodies as a formation formed .

At the moment of completion, the four teleportation circles began to glow a bluish color before a pillar of light crashed down one of them .

"Someone is already using it!?" one of the messengers, Su Yao spoke with disbelief .

This circle was linked to the demon continent . As the light dissipated, a group of demons appeared . An ancient aura surrounded them as they looked around, facing the massive armies of man . There was a variety of them, demons with wings, horned ones, those with death-like skin . As they looked around, the messengers that were assigned to this circle flew down .

The demons noticed their arrival and gave a slight bow in respect .

"The High Council welcomes you back to the Human Continent . We will bring you in for a bit of discussion", it was Su Yao who spoke to them .

He quickly recovered from his shock and greeted them . He was a part of the High Council and needed to act the part .

"Yes, please . We of the Demon Continent have been trying to connect for years . There are many matters that must be discussed", the demons seemed quite amiable and their response was intriguing .

They've been trying to travel to the other continents for years now? Exactly what has the Demon Continent been through after the changing of ages .

Su Yao led them back to the High Council's castle as the others continued to watch the circles .

Arriving at the castle, the High Council were already inside, seated on their thrones as if waiting .

"We seven members of the High Council welcome you to our little abode . Please, there is no need to bow . Just speak your mind . "

The group of demons did not seem surprised by their appearance and stood upright . One of them, a man with wings spoke first .

"We demons are a group sent by the last last of our kind to ask for help . The Demon Continent was thrown into chaos and we demon races fought against each other . Our wars and battles have ravaged the land, our numbers dwindled from starvation and constant fighting . Even now, there are battles happening all through out the continent . What we ask of you, is for your aid in helping us quell these fights and reunite the Demon Continent . "

The High Council was silent, pondering this call for help . The situation was still unknown . For all they know, this could be a trap . However, if what these demons said was true, then the human race should aid them .

"Have you any news of the Beast Continent?" one of them asked .

"No . Although our teleportation circles are active, we have been unable to travel there", the winged demon replied .

"I see . Well then, I shall have several men scout the Demon Continent first . Until then, please rest here and recover . Time has been harsh on you all . "

The winged demon smiled and bowed, "Thank you! I am Gao Ri of the Winged Demon Race . This is Hui Zhou of the Giant Race . . . . "

After introducing everyone on the group, Su Yao led them into a separate hall to rest while the High Council continued to contemplate the current situation . There were many thing to consider and the best they could do was tread carefully .

With all of this happening, Maple Root City was beginning its own battle .
