[Adapted from Bai Lu Cheng Shuang's "Love in The Clouds"]

[Episode 35]

Have you thought about how I'm going to face all of this alone

if you go and face death alone?

You can do it.

Because you are the destined one, Ming Xian.

You are the Warrior Goddess who won for seven consecutive years.

You are the morning sun that never sets.

Once the Sky-Swallowing Array is gone,

everything will go back to normal.

You will no longer be alone.

You have friends,

family,

and you'll also meet

a new lover in the future.

You must live a good life.

Everything will be better.

I'm not going to find anyone else,

Ji Bozai.

♪That's why I'm so fragile♪

♪In this world, there's too much♪

♪Cause and effect of love and hate surging♪

♪Would you be willing to stay for me?♪

When I first approached you,

I had ulterior motives.

We were testing and using each other

back then.

There was no trust between us.

♪Even in this restless world...♪

Later, we went through a lot together.

However, I couldn't tell you the truth

because of the initial lie I made.

Because of the misunderstandings and secrets we kept from each other,

we've missed out on too much.

So, I no longer want to have any regrets.

Can you

tell me everything in the future

and not solve a problem alone?

Let's overcome it together.

I want to live with you, Ji Bozai.

All right?

I will live with you, Ji Bozai.

♪Even in this restless world...♪

We die together.

We die together.

We live together.

We live together.

♪If your world was once an endless wasteland♪

♪I'd tear myself apart to fill the wounds inside you♪

♪Even if this life is like a shooting star♪

♪Brief only for the sake of meeting you♪

♪In this fleeting life♪

♪I'll still be your light♪

Chao Yuan.

You finally see it now.

Your father and brothers looked down on you.

Ji Bozai doesn't see you as a worthy opponent.

Ming Yi also doesn't care about you at all.

Can you accept this?

Merge completely with me.

Give your consciousness, soul, and cultivation

to me

and activate the Sky-Swallowing Array.

I can help you use the art of illusory assassination to its utmost

and make you the strongest person in the world

who rules the Six Realms.

Demons of Zhushui, please bless me

with all the power of Heju.

I pledge my primordial soul to you

and offer all of me to the demons.

Listen.

I've not been resting

all day.

I've flipped through

every page

of the ancient tomes

and finally discovered

that the Sky-Swallowing Array

is indeed mysterious.

Not much has been written about it.

Situ Ling

possesses the Heavenly Grief and Golden Millet Dream.

He will surely activate the Sky-Swallowing Array

during the Qingyun Tournament.

When the time comes, the Nine Heavens will open

and the Blessed Rain will go to Zhushui Spiritual State.

We must think of something before that happens.

Ming Yi.

I will show you

what being a truly powerful person means.

See you in the Qingyun Tournament.

You're telling me

that Situ Ling is Chao Yuan?

He has become the Zhushui Spiritual State's Crown Prince.

The Emperor of Zhushui hasn't appeared in days.

Every piece of news was approved by Chao Yuan.

It seems like

he has become the de facto ruler of Zhushui Spiritual State.

The Qingyun Tournament

is no longer about who becomes the champion.

Our actions

will decide the fate of the Six Realms.

Moreover, the day of the finals coincides

with the activation of the Sky-Swallowing Array that happens once in a century.

If we can't stop the Sky-Swallowing Array,

Zhushui will possess the entirety of the Blessed Rain

and the remaining five realms will be invaded.

Even with the Aranya Barrier, Jixing Abyss

still won't be spared.

What plans do you have?

We have yet

to find a way to break the Sky-Swallowing Array for now.

No one within the Six Realms

has attained the Perfect Stage yet.

When the time comes, I will...

As long as I'm around,

I won't let you sacrifice yourself to destroy the array.

Your Majesty.

Please find a way

to put Jixing Abyss and Yaoguang Mountain

into the finals.

My father, She Tianlin,

will sneak into Zhushui Palace

with Twenty-Seven and Buxiu

to find their records about the Sky-Swallowing Array.

All right.

Don't worry about the finals.

We will surely find another way

to protect the Six Realms.

As I said,

when the Sky-Swallowing Array is activated,

the Blessed Rain will go to Zhushui Spiritual State.

When the time comes,

Yaoguang Mountain and other realms

will be enslaved.

I know

some of you were forced

to follow Ming Xin.

You submitted to him

out of fear.

What about now?

Do you still fear the Emperor of Zhushui?

Too afraid to admit it?

If anyone is afraid,

you may drop out of the warrior ranks at any time.

I won't force you to do it.

However, to prevent the plan from being leaked,

all of you are forbidden from leaving this place

before the Qingyun Tournament ends.

Why?

Do you think you can confine us

because you are the Crown Prince?

I don't want to confine all of you.

But this concerns the Six Realms' safety,

so I must take things seriously.

Besides,

I'm just keeping all of you here

until the Qingyun Tournament is over.

After the tournament,

I might be dead.

Why?

The Sky-Swallowing Array

can only be broken by feeding oneself to it.

Right now,

you can hide, escape,

or cower in fear.

But someone needs to step up.

Otherwise, the Six Realms will not exist.

I'm willing to fight for Yaoguang Mountain.

Me too.

My life belongs to Yaoguang Mountain.

Yaoguang Mountain can have it.

I'm in as well.

When Ming Xin joined the warrior ranks,

I dared not resist because I was a coward.

I did Ming Xian dirty.

I only want to make up for my mistakes

and protect Yaoguang Mountain.

We will participate as well.

In the Qingyun Two-Realm Tournament,

the first between Jixing Abyss and Yaoguang Mountain

to reach the Totem Platform on top of the pagoda

and obtain the Spiritual Key

will become one of the Upper Realms

and acquire the Blessed Rain.

The loser will become one of the Lower Realms.

It's Ming Xian versus Ji Bozai again.

They've switched teams now.

Jixing Abyss has been weak for years.

I'm sure Yaoguang Mountain will win this.

Absolutely.

I beg to differ.

Moreover, her name is now Ming Yi

and she is now a fairy.

When did she change her identity?

Are you not worried at all, Your Majesty?

I chose them myself.

I'm sure they can do what they intend to do.

The loser

will become one of the Lower Realms.

Looking at Jixing Abyss,

they look like

they have a higher chance of winning this year.

I still think Yaoguang Mountain will win.

Victory for Yaoguang Mountain!

Yes. Victory for Yaoguang Mountain!

Victory for Yaoguang Mountain!

Victory for Yaoguang Mountain!

Victory for Yaoguang Mountain!

The other realms can see everything

that happens inside Zhuojin Tower via the array.

We need to act like

we're going for each other's throats.

However, with this Soundproof Artifact,

they won't hear what we are saying.

Where are they?

Where are they?

They disappeared in the blink of an eye.

I'm afraid Ji Bozai will win again.

That might not be true.

Ming Xian will never lose to the same move twice.

I'm sure she is prepared for this.

We still have a chance of winning.

- Yes! - Yes!

Immortal, look out.

Give me your best shot.

That is how we can fool them.

You are good at acting.

You are also working well with me.

- They are back. - They are back.

- They are back. - They are back.

Who won?

Who won? Let's see.

I can't see who won.

They each get one-half.

What will happen?

This is unprecedented.

Is it a tie?

This is unprecedented.

What does a tie mean?

There has never been a tie

in the Qingyun Tournament for over a century.

Yes.

Who wins?

What should we do?

Do we have two Upper Realms?

Perhaps the Emperor of Yaoguang can join me

as the rulers of Upper Realms.

Mind your words, Empress of Jixing.

Two Upper Realms are absolutely impossible.

In that case, there's only one way.

Jixing Abyss and Yaoguang Mountain

are tied in this competition.

To determine the Upper Realm,

both realms will compete again later.

The upcoming match between Zhushui Spiritual State

and Cangwu Hill shall be postponed accordingly.

Candidates, please wait.

It takes more than one day to master the Sky-Swallowing Array.

There must be tomes

documenting it.

When they are still competing,

we will find these tomes

and find a way to counter the Sky-Swallowing Array.

Done.

Both of you, sneak inside.

I will go there

and both of you will go there.

Let's split up.

Let's go.

Let's go and find the tomes.

- Great! - Great!

- All right! - Amazing!

- Great! - Great!

In the second match,

Jixing Abyss and Yaoguang Mountain

are tied.

- Great! - Wonderful!

That's amazing!

Great!

Great!

Get ready!

Take this!

How much longer must they fight?

Jixing Abyss and Yaoguang Mountain are tied.

This has gone on long enough.

I wonder when we can finally stop acting.

It's quite tiring to keep fighting.

Again.

Sorry.

I wasn't paying attention.

In the fourth match,

Jixing Abyss and Yaoguang Mountain are tied.

After many matches,

Jixing Abyss and Yaoguang Mountain are still tied.

In the past few matches,

Yaoguang Mountain and Jixing Abyss

were stuck in a tie.

With the help of Zheng Tiao from Flowing Wave Gorge,

the umpire of the tournament decided

to allow both Jixing Abyss and Yaoguang Mountain

to enter the finals.

There are four teams in the finals.

Zhushui Spiritual State,

Flowing Wave Gorge,

Yaoguang Mountain,

and Jixing Abyss.

All right. That's the announcement.

Great!

This should be it.

Twenty-Seven!

Twenty-Seven!

Master She, save Twenty-Seven!

Master She.

Something is wrong with the spiritual flames.

If you reach into the box,

your hand will be severed.

Master She.

Master She.

Master She, stop it!

If you don't,

your arm will break.

- Master She! - Master She!

Master She!

Let's go!

It's done.

It's so delicious.

Did you see the look

on Yaoguang Emperor's face?

This is such an amazing method.

Getting a tie in every match

and pretending to be fierce rivals.

In the end, both Yaoguang Mountain and Jixing Abyss

entered the finals.

You're such a messy eater.

Everyone out there

can never imagine

that Ming Yi and Ji Bozai, the fierce rivals

they are talking about,

are only pretending to be enemies.

In reality,

they are a married couple in love.

Confusing outsiders

is the best way to avoid raising any suspicion.

Where is Ming Yi?

Where's Ming Yi?

What happened to Master She?

They are inside. Go inside.

Let's go.

Father!

Master She's wound has been treated.

However, his arm

will never recover from the injury.

Why are you crying?

I'm still alive.

Let me make some medicine for Master She.

Sure.

That brat is doing a good job today.

Why are you still joking at a time like this?

My hand was all roasted like a pig's trotter,

but my arm is still here.

Just lie down.

It hurts.

Enough. Stop crying.

Does it hurt?

All right.

Let me tell you something.

I sneaked

into Zhushui Palace

and found records of the Sky-Swallowing Array.

Master She's arm will never heal.

Perhaps he can replace it with an artifact.

I will do all I can to find the best forging materials

so he can

move as well as before.

Father finally

obtained the layout of the Sky-Swallowing Array.

Perhaps we can use it

to find another way to break the array.

We must break the Sky-Swallowing Array

to foil Chao Yuan and his father's plot.

Ji Bozai,

are you ignoring me?

A great battle is before us. Our fate is uncertain.

I can't afford to lose everyone again.

I can't afford to lose you.

I don't want to lose you either.

I was saved from the Sunken Abyss.

In the past,

I could sacrifice everything

to achieve a goal.

But, right now,

I actually feel afraid.

When did you learn a trick like this?

You don't like it?

I do.

However, if I get sick of it one day,

what will you do?

That's easy.

I'll find

another trick.

Yan Xiao.

Promise me one thing.

What is it?

You must come back safely from the tournament.

You, Meng Yangqiu,

Chen Xi, and Ming Yi.

All of you must return safely, all right?

♪Never had I pondered the meaning of love♪

♪I would rather shed my armor and forget my freedom♪

♪Though stubborn, I am held fast by love♪

♪It is you who taught me to understand♪

Yaoguang Mountain and Jixing Abyss

[Divine Crimson Palace] must have tied on purpose multiple times

to enter the finals together.

I read

all of your notes, Father.

All of them

want to stop the activation of the Sky-Swallowing Array.

Rest assured, Father.

I will fulfill your wish

and not let them succeed.

The finals of the Qingyun Tournament

will be a battle

between all warriors of the Upper Three Realms in Zhuojin Tower.

There is a special situation this year.

The finals will contain four teams,

Zhushui Spiritual State, Flowing Wave Gorge,

Jixing Abyss, and Yaoguang Mountain.

We've made it to the finals at last.

Right?

We put a lot of effort into our acting.

Immortal Zheng Tiao,

we'll count on you later.

Chao Yuan is activating the Sky-Swallowing Array.

According to the plan,

all of you are to guard the exits

and prevent other Zhushui Spiritual State members from entering

so no innocent people are hurt.

Immortal Ji, rest assured.

If we stay united,

there's nothing that we cannot overcome.

Everyone from Jixing Abyss and Yaoguang Mountain,

please do your best

to hold back other warriors of Zhushui Spiritual State

so they don't split up and grab the Spiritual Key.

Don't worry.

I will

protect all of you as the vanguard.

I will also do my best

to prevent all of you from getting hurt.

All of you must be careful.

Protect yourself

and protect our teammates.

May we return victorious.

All right!

The final of the Qingyun Tournament begins now!

Zhushui Spiritual State is too powerful.

I still think Yaoguang Mountain will win.

Victory for Yaoguang Mountain!

Be careful.

He has completely absorbed the power of netherbeasts.

Are you in a rush to face your doom?

Yan Xiao,

let's help Master together.

What's going on?

It's getting dark.

What is happening?

It's time.

Is that all you got?

How foolish.

What a joke.

Get in formation!

[Sky-Swallowing Array]

If you gather qi in the Heaven, Fire, and Water positions

and incinerate the array from there,

while someone

above the Transcendent Stage sits in the eye of the array,

you may seal the array.

That's great.

Do you think

you can destroy the Sky-Swallowing Array with that?

What a joke.

All magic will extinguish.

Heaven and sun may fall.

Only death

remains eternal.

Sky-Swallowing Array,

activate!

The Sky-Swallowing Array has been activated again!

I've combined the Zhushui secret art

with the Sky-Swallowing Array.

All the spiritual power it absorbs

will be mine.

I will only get stronger.

Chao Yuan,

your body can't withstand

all the spiritual power you are absorbing.

Once it loses control,

your primordial spirit will be destroyed

and scattered across the Six Realms!

He is one with the Sky-Swallowing Array.

That means

he will share the same fate as the array.

Ming Yi,

I was trampled on and bullied

because I had no spiritual veins.

I hoped I could

become as powerful as you one day.

I will soon become the strongest among the Six Realms.

I don't mind having my primordial spirit destroyed.

If at all,

I'll take the entire Hexu

down with me.

Yan Xiao!

You have no spiritual veins.

You must hold on.

Urgh, whatever!

Yan Xiao.

Meng Yangqiu.

Meng Yangqiu!

Meng Yangqiu!

His spiritual power is too strong now.

We can't fight near him.

If this goes on,

he will absorb everyone's primordial spirit.

There's no time.

Are you trying to sacrifice yourself?

We promised to overcome this together.

Ming Yi,

when the sacrifice becomes the only resort,

we cannot afford any hesitation.

Both of us are in the Transcendent Stage.

If doing this alone will bring death,

we might survive if the two of us do it together.

Sacrificing one life is enough.

There's no need to put your life on the line.

Even if there's a sliver of hope,

both of us must survive together.
