Upheaval

If the opponent's cultivation level were any stronger, even his Nether Lock Profound Qi Flow wouldn't be able to withstand a full-force sneak attack.

White Impermanence said, "These two girls are not simple. Don't be careless, go all out."

"I already know without Seventh Master reminding me."

Seeing that the planned tactics had failed, Si Huaruo did not waste time regretting it. Battles are full of variables, especially when facing an opponent with no information. It is normal for accidents to happen. A martial artist with rich combat experience would never stop and sigh in regret. She quickly gave Liu Qingqing a look.

Liu Qingqing understood, drew her bow, nocked an arrow, and used her Divine Arts to gather her Primal Qi. She aimed at the stone door, and the phantom of the God of Justice appeared behind her, intending to break down the door with a single blow.

"Don't even think about it!"

Black Impermanence swung his Soul-Locking Chain, wrapping them around Liu Qingqing in an attempt to interrupt her actions, while White Impermanence turned and pounced on Si Huaruo.

"Hundred Gods Sacrifice Five, Tiger God!"

Si Huaruo made a hand seal with her left hand, causing the air currents in all directions to swirl and condense into a Hurricane Tiger King, which pounced on Black Impermanence. With one claw, she knocked the Soul-Locking Chain open, while at the same time, she wielded the Seven Ingenious Spirit Heart Staff with her right hand, using the Water Moon Soft Technique to neutralize White Impermanence's attack.

Liu Qingqing shot an arrow, the arrow gathering divine power, like a seven-colored rainbow, carrying a fierce gale that pierced the stone gate. With a loud bang, it shattered into pieces. Then, she ducked down and slipped inside amidst the flying dust.

"Leave it for me!"

After defeating the Hurricane Tiger King, Black Impermanence turned and threw out the Soul-Locking Chain, aiming for Liu Qingqing's neck, intending to avenge the sneak attack earlier.

However, while Liu Qingqing's cultivation level was inferior to his, her Movement Method was undoubtedly superior. With light, swirling steps, it wasn't any kind of light-footed skill, but rather a simple shift from left to right, seemingly advancing while retreating. With this simple change, she easily dodged and continued to delve deeper inside.

Black Impermanence tried to chase after him and intercept him, but the Hurricane Tiger King pounced again and entangled him, making it difficult to break free for a while. This was because the Hurricane Tiger King, formed from divine power, was just a spirit and did not possess a soul, so the hidden effect of the Soul-Locking Chain had no effect on it.

"Trying to take on two opponents by yourself, little girl, you're deliberately courting death!"

White Impermanence roared angrily, his Movement Method suddenly swift, and figures appeared all around him. He brandished the Judge's Token in his hand like a mad knife. Although the Judge's Token was just a token without a blade, under the infusion of his True Qi, its edges generated sharp light, enough to cut iron like mud. At that moment, it surged towards Si Huaruo like layers of waves.

Si Huaruo remained calm and composed. Stepping on the Cup Bow Snake Shadow Dance," her body moved in ways that defied common sense. What appeared to be a move to the left actually moved to the right; what appeared to be a forward charge actually retreated. She easily escaped White Impermanence's attacks. Then, she used the martial arts from the " Water Moon Precious Mirror " to redirect White Impermanence's force, deflecting and neutralizing his energy, thus trapping him in place.

The Water Moon Precious Mirror is good at defense but not offense. In a short time, Si Huaruo cannot defeat White Impermanence, but it is ten times more difficult for him to defeat her. While she is entangled with White Impermanence, she can also take the time to replenish the divine power of Hurricane Tiger King and continue to hold off Black Impermanence.

In terms of cultivation level, Si Huaruo was definitely no match for the two, but she only sought to delay rather than win, and for a time she was able to handle the situation with ease.

On the other side, Liu Qingqing entered the secret chamber behind the stone gate. As soon as she entered, she smelled a pungent stench of blood. After walking forward for a short while, she immediately saw a scene of hell on earth.

In the center of the secret chamber was a huge pool of blood, arranged according to some kind of magic array, emitting an eerie Green Light. Above the blood pool hung a huge cage, filled with countless corpses, numbering in the thousands.

If so many people were lined up, they would fill an entire playground, but now they are crammed into a cage of less than a thousand cubic meters. It's not hard to imagine what they look like now; they are being treated like livestock.

When these corpses are illuminated by Green Light, blood seeps out and drips into the blood pool below, causing the corpses to gradually shrivel up.

"This is outrageous, unforgivable..."

Even Liu Qingqing, who rarely showed any emotion, revealed an angry expression at this moment. She clenched her fists, and a murderous intent surged from her body. At this moment, she suddenly remembered what Si Ming had said.

--It was precisely because I felt the cruel truth of this place that I deliberately used jokes to calm my nerves, so as to avoid doing anything too impulsive.

Liu Qingqing wasn't sure if Si Ming had realized something. After all, his cultivation level was already unfathomable to her. But she did feel something similar right now. Her chest heaved for a while, and she had to circulate her inner energy several times before she could stop her impulse.

"Such intense resentment, but it seems to be suppressed by some force, unable to generate vengeful spirits. The one who set up the formation clearly considered this, not giving the victim a chance to retaliate."

After thinking for a moment, Liu Qingqing realized that the only thing she could do now was to use Divine Arts to appease the dead. Although doing so would be unfair to Si Huaruo, who was holding off the enemy outside, she believed it was necessary. So she destroyed the magic array set up in the Blood Pool, cut off the Green Light, and then activated the divine technique.

"The essence of Tai Xuan, aligning with Heaven and Earth, uniting with the Mother Moon, the two energies intertwined..."

Behind Liu Qingqing, the phantom of Primordial Lady of Benevolence and Mystery appeared. Upon seeing this hellish scene, two lines of clear tears slid down Primordial Lady of Benevolence and Mystery's face. With a wave of her hand, a beam of clear light shone on the blood pool, like hot oil poured onto snow, quickly melting the resentment accumulated on it. Faintly, a voice of gratitude could be heard, and the blood in the blood pool was also evaporating rapidly, with the water level dropping at a visible speed.

Just as the blood pool was about to run dry, the last drop of blood suddenly flew up and shot towards Liu Qingqing, landing between her eyebrows.

Chapter 549 Anomaly

After a fierce battle, Black Impermanence finally defeated the Hurricane Tiger King. He then faced two choices: turn around and enter the blood pool to intercept the black-haired girl, or join forces with White Impermanence to besiege the blonde girl.

After a moment's thought, Black Impermanence chose to launch a pincer attack. Firstly, he considered that quite some time had passed, and if the other party really wanted to do something to the Blood Pool, they would have already done so, and it would be too late to stop them now. Secondly, from a tactical perspective, being divided is weak, while being united is strong. A two-on-two fight would be unpredictable, so it would be better for the two of them to join forces to take down the blonde girl first, and then deal with the black-haired girl. This is a common tactic in military strategy: concentrating one's superior forces to attack the enemy's dispersed forces.

Black Impermanence's idea was very correct; however, theory is one thing, practice is another, and applying theory to practice is not so smooth.

Originally, with her attention divided, Si Huaruo could barely hold back White Impermanence. Even in a one-on-one situation, she would probably only have a slight advantage. Logically speaking, when a martial artist faces two martial artists of the same level, they are likely to find themselves in a predicament where two fists cannot fight four hands, putting them at a clear disadvantage. But at this moment, Si Huaruo is fighting two against one, and she only loses by a slight margin. Even with the combined strength of Black and White Impermanence, they were unable to gain much advantage over her.

"Seven Kills Blood Sha!"

With the help of his companions, White Impermanence was finally able to catch his breath and unleash his ultimate move. The Judge's Token in his hand twisted seven times in succession, like a winding mountain road, making it difficult to predict its trajectory. At the same time, the Blood Sha Qi on it would become more intense with each attack, thus ensuring that each strike was stronger than the last.

At the same time, Black Impermanence unleashed his Soul-Locking Chain to attack the lower path, followed by a palm strike imbued with sinister power.

Faced with attacks from both above and below, Si Huaruo's Seven Ingenious Spirit Heart Staff spun like a windmill, resembling Azure Dragon playing in the water or a lone wild cloud soaring. Its power was smooth and flawless, forming a perfect defensive circle. She focused on defending and didn't bother to discern her opponent's moves.

When the Judge's Token struck the energy circle formed by the spirit staff, White Impermanence felt as if he had struck a ball. The energy circle slightly sank, dissipating the force, and then bounced back with a recoil force, weakening his power. Each attack was weakened by three points. As a result, after seven consecutive strikes, the Seven Kills Blood Sha move not only did not become more powerful, but was actually weaker than the first strike.

Black Impermanence's Soul-Locking Chain were weaker in penetrating power than the Judge's Token, so they naturally couldn't break through the defensive energy circle. However, he had anticipated this and immediately unleashed the Blood Brand Divine Palm, lunging forward.

However, Si Huaruo remained calm and composed. She extended her slender hand and gently deflected the Black Impermanence, as if trying to scoop the moon's reflection from the water. The movement was ethereal and illusory. Combined with the inertia of the energy circle, she redirected Hei Wuchang's palm strike towards White Impermanence. With her own skills alone, she could not deflect the ultimate move of a martial artist of the same level, but with the assistance of the energy circle, it was not difficult to do so.

White Impermanence couldn't dodge in time and could only reach out to defend. Even though Black Impermanence managed to withdraw half of his strength in time, both of them were still shaken and their Qi and Blood and qi churned.

"Even with the two of us working together, we can't take down a little girl."

Black Impermanence felt extremely frustrated, thinking that perhaps he had misjudged the situation. He should have rushed into the blood pool directly, defeated the black-haired girl, and taken her back as a hostage to threaten the blonde girl; that might have been a better chance of success.

White Impermanence also asked in confusion, "When I was being suppressed in my one-on-one fight with her, I was still able to maintain my own rhythm. Now that the two of us are joining forces to suppress her, we've fallen into her rhythm instead. What's going on? Could it be that she held back before?"

It wasn't that Si Huaruo was holding back, but rather that in the past twenty years of sparring and competition with Si Jingyu, she had always been at a disadvantage. Therefore, she had long been used to being suppressed, and it was rather unusual for her to suppress others.

When she fought White Impermanence alone, she always felt at a loss, unsure of how to win. But when Black and White Impermanence joined forces, that familiar feeling immediately returned. She had studied in great depth how not to be defeated, so she became more and more adept at fighting, and even had the leisure to worry about Liu Qingqing.
