Book 07 Chapter 183: Law Origin

Ensnaring Performance’s singing resounded.

It was the same voice, the same style. As soon as the song began, the entire battlefield, where life and death struggles were taking place, came to a halt.

Be it the sect disciples or the skeletons, goosebumps covered their bodies; the skeletons had visible bone spurs standing on end. Everyone shivered as if their soul was frozen in an icy tundra, forgetting about fighting.

Gasp!

Everyone gasped in shock; even the injured individuals sprawled on the ground could not help but tremble.

However, such distractions in battle were deadly. The sect disciples and skeletons only momentarily lost focus before resuming their fight.

However, Ensnaring Performance’s voice rang out again.

“Oh, adorable little skeletons, I am your daddy. Come into my arms and let me braid your hair….”

That singing interrupted the battle again.

Almost simultaneously, all the skeletons turned their gazes towards the intoxicated Ensnaring Performance on the platform.

He appeared to be thoroughly enjoying singing, but the lyrics were simply ludicrous.

Cute little skeletons? You’re our daddy? Give me a break!

Come into your arms? Let you braid our hair? Don’t you know skeletons are bald?

The lyrics, the meaning, the tone, and the singing ability—no matter how you listened, it was unbearable. One unpleasant aspect would have been tolerable, but when all four combined, the result sent shivers down one’s spine.

The singing voice had a detestable attribute, indiscriminately assaulting anyone and everyone.

On the sidelines, the ten sect leaders widened their eyes in astonishment. Is this the singing we pleaded for earlier? Is this the divine envoy sent by Immortal Cang to assist us? He is more like a tormentor torturing us.

How can one suddenly burst into song in such a tragic and fierce moment, creating such an awkward atmosphere? Do you even realize it?

There’s no way to continue fighting now!

Mao Tianyun scattered its sound isolation barriers and shouted, “What are you all doing? Continue fighting! The skeletons over there are not moving!”

After speaking, it hastily set up three more sound isolation barriers, feeling slightly better. Even so, its entire body trembled.

That song was simply too terrible to listen to.

“Don’t stop! Attack quickly! Kill!” shouted the ten sect leaders.

“Kill!” the sect disciples roared as they launched another assault.

Indeed, the sect disciples now gradually regained their advantage. However, they also could not bear it. Ensnaring Performance’s singing voice was an indiscriminate attack, affecting everyone.

“Ah! Sect Master, I can’t take it anymore!”

“Even though I covered my ears, it’s useless! Sect Master, I’m about to vomit!”

“Sect Master, please ask the divine envoy to spare us!”

The sect disciples wailed in despair.

Even the ten sect leaders could not bear it any longer. They were right there, hearing it more clearly. The damage they suffered was like a critical blow.

They wanted Ensnaring Performance to stop, but how? Ensnaring Performance was helping them fight the enemy. How could they possibly ask him to stop?

“Endure for the holy lord!” one sect leader exclaimed with tears in his eyes.

“Yes!” a large group of sect disciples responded tearfully.

It was all because they fervently believed in the Six Paths Veritable Lord. For the sake of their faith, they endured.

Countless sect disciples persisted, fighting with tears in their eyes.

The skeletons on the opposite side could not bear it any longer.

Defeat in battle was one thing, but the torment of this singing voice was the most terrifying. It was an outright insult.

Skeleton, You Are Not Cute?

If tears could stop this nauseating feeling, the skeletons would not hesitate to cry like the sect disciples. Unfortunately, skeletons could not shed tears.

“Shut up!”

“This is disgustingly terrible! Stop singing already!”

“Your voice is unpleasant, extremely unpleasant. I want to kill you!”

“The stench of my decaying corpse was nothing compared to how disgusting your singing voice is. Stop it! I want to kill you!”

“Kill him!”

Countless skeletons shuddered and howled in anger.

However, Ensnaring Performance remained immersed in his song and continued singing without pause.

The battle took a slight turn, and Ensnaring Performance’s first song came to an end.

“That was refreshing. I didn’t expect such a lively response. So, ten sect leaders, what do you think of my singing?” Ensnaring Performance finished singing and looked at the ten sect leaders in front of him.

The ten sect leaders had their backs to Ensnaring Performance.

They had endured the torment of this terrible song all this time for the sake of their faith. They had suffered the most, and now they stood with their backs to Ensnaring Performance, bloody tears streaming from their eyes.

“Sect Master Ran, you have some accomplishments in the music Dao. Why don’t you give your evaluation?” The leading sect leader could not bear to criticize Ensnaring Performance, so he passed the buck.

A green-robed sect leader now had blood trickling from his nostrils, not just his eyes.

Because he understood the music Dao, the impact was magnified severalfold. After hearing Ensnaring Performance’s first song, Sect Master Ran had made up his mind not to pursue the music Dao ever again.

However, for the sake of their faith and victory, he had no choice but to say, “Excellent! Great singing!”

“Really? That’s great! As I expected, there are people who appreciate good music. During this period, I’ve written hundreds of songs, and I’ll sing them all for you. Next, I’ll sing my most famous song, Little Radish!” Ensnaring Performance exclaimed excitedly.

With that, Ensnaring Performance started singing again.

The might of Little Radish surpassed even that of Skeleton, You Are Not Cute.

As the singing resumed, the battles in the distance became even more bizarre. Humans and skeletons alike forgot how to fight; they were entangled with one another, falling to the ground and convulsing. From a distance, it looked absurd.

The nine sect leaders looked at Sect Master Ran with murderous gazes, while blood began trickling out of Sect Master Ran’s ears.

------

In the distance:

The Bone Deity, surrounded by numerous skeletons, twitched his skeletal finger.

Even the Bone Deity lost his interest in the distant battle upon hearing this terrible song.

The Bone Deity possessed astonishing endurance, given that he succeeded in usurping the Bone Ancestor’s position. However, Ensnaring Performance’s first song had thoroughly depleted the Bone Deity’s endurance.

“Evil being!” The Bone Deity’s voice was ice cold.

The nearby skeletons nodded in agreement. Although evil being was a term usually used by humans to insult their kind, it definitely fitted Ensnaring Performance.

If not for the Bone Deity’s presence, all the skeletons would have gone mad long ago.

After Skeleton, You Are Not Cute ended, Ensnaring Performance declared that he had several hundred more songs. Several hundred songs?

Then, he sang a song called Little Radish?

As soon as the song began, dissonance flooded the Bone Deity’s mind. The Bone Deity wanted nothing more than to strangle Ensnaring Performance. If Ensnaring Performance continued to sing, the Bone Deity would be driven mad.

Many skeletons had “fallen” on the battlefield because of the song, and even the sect disciples on the opposing side were foaming at the mouth.

“Oh! Oh! Oh! Little radish, I—”

Ensnaring Performance hadn’t finished his sentence when the Bone Deity suddenly stood up and made a grab at Ensnaring Performance. “Radish, your mother! Go to hell!”

The Bone Deity unleashed his full power, and a terrifying aura instantly enveloped the battlefield, knocking down everyone there.

Bang!

As everyone landed on the ground, they discovered that endless bones covered the earth.

Everything within a radius of fifty thousand kilometers—trees, rivers, soil—had turned into bones, an endless sea of bones.

“Ah! Ah! Ah…!” Ensnaring Performance screamed in alarm at the interruption.

------

Gu Hai, the Unborn Man, the Mosquito Daoist, and Long Shenying hurried towards the skeleton battlefield.

On the way, Gu Hai instructed everyone to cover their ears or create sound isolation barriers.

Gu Hai did so, but the other three did not take his warning seriously.

The three of them had indeed heard people mention Ensnaring Performance’s terrible singing in Borderless Heavenly Capital. However, they had not experienced it.

Terrible? How terrible can it be? It’s just a song, right?

The three of them thought little of it until they drew closer to the battlefield and Ensnaring Performance’s singing finally reached their ears.

The moment they heard the singing, the Mosquito Daoist and Long Shenying shivered in unison.

“What kind of demonic sound is this?” the Mosquito Daoist exclaimed.

“It’s so terrifying! Ensnaring Performance’s singing is truly horrifying!” Long Shenying exclaimed.

“This demonic sound is filling my mind!” the Unborn Man exclaimed.

Buzz!

The three of them immediately followed Gu Hai’s lead and created sound isolation barriers.

As Gu Hai flew, his eyebrows furrowed. “Something’s not right. The sound isolation barriers are not working properly. Why can’t we completely block it?”

Indeed, the sound isolation barriers blocked most of Ensnaring Performance’s voice, but some still managed to seep through. The barriers only offered a slight improvement.

Just a slight improvement?

The four of them immediately fused their soundproof barriers together.

“The sound isolation barriers are not working. This makes no sense. How could such terrible singing exist?” the Mosquito Daoist exclaimed.

“This makes no sense. Even if the lyrics, melody, and vocals are not good, his singing shouldn’t be so terrible. We’ve heard countless terrible noises before, so why does this song make us feel so unsettled?” Long Shenying wondered in astonishment.

“Is it inherently terrible?” Gu Hai raised an eyebrow.

Years had passed, yet Ensnaring Performance’s singing had not improved but had even worsened.

“Perhaps his singing using the law origin!” the Unborn Man said, enduring the discomfort.

“Oh? The origin of the laws?” Gu Hai frowned slightly.

Zhengfa Ming had said something similar in the past. According to him, Ensnaring Performance’s singing voice was not terrible. Rather, it was the most captivating sound in the world; it was just that most people could not appreciate it.

“His singing resonates with all the music Dao laws, driving the laws. Naturally, it possesses a unique and peculiar sensation that affects all living beings, similar to what Your Reverence referred to as ‘inherently terrible,’” the Unborn Man analyzed.

“But why does it sound terrible?” the Mosquito Daoist asked.

“The music Dao laws encompass all sounds in the world, not just pleasant ones. From terrible to pleasant, disgusting to beautiful, they all fall within the domain of the music Dao laws. Ensnaring Performance’s singing taps into the music Dao laws. Perhaps he himself doesn’t know how to control it. Although he drives all the music Dao laws, he just happens to draw from the most terrible range of sounds. Pleasant songs are pleasing to the ear and cultivate the mind. Terrible songs—like this one—can be a weapon on the battlefield. They irritate the nerves and erode reason,” the Unborn Man analyzed.

“I see. It erodes reason. To think the music Dao has such terrifying offensive abilities. It doesn’t harm the physical body but directly attacks the consciousness and the souls? It forcibly distorts one’s aesthetic sense!” the Mosquito Daoist exclaimed in awe.

“Ensnaring Performance’s music Dao directly drives the law. It’s truly incredible!” Long Shenying marveled.

“Oh no! The Bone Deity is about to make a move!” Gu Hai’s expression darkened, and his figure flashed as he accelerated.
