The Holy Light Talisman, like a divine lotus blooming, made the sound of flowers opening, with huge lotus petals opening and bursting out with dazzling runic beams of light that engulfed what lay ahead.

It must be said that the purifying effect of this holy light was better than expected, and the effect was perfect.

The four spiritual entities quickly perished, burning away like scarecrows as the lotus petals opened, leaving not a trace in an instant.

"I should visit Old Zhong's house more often!" Wang Xuan muttered to himself. The stack of rotten papers that Zhong Changming had given him back then was incredibly powerful.

The only drawback of these talismans is that they are all disposable, one-time use items.

"Hmm?" His expression hardened slightly. He had been cautious enough this time, using the light from the ancient lamp to protect himself. However, four red marks still appeared on his body, as if he had been scratched by a vengeful ghost.

What's going on? The opponent is more powerful than he imagined, able to penetrate his Body Protection Light Screen the Void. Their skill and methods are astonishing.

Three Blood Shadow charged forward, trying to break free, but a giant lotus bloomed, the sound of the flower opening resounding through the sky, a rustling sound accompanied by dazzling holy light, like a baptism, looking extremely magnificent.

Bang!

Finally, just as the talisman was about to burn out, three Dao Body burst out, looking somewhat disheveled. The one holding the divine net was looking down at the slightly dim treasure, as the Super Material damage was too severe, and some of the network cables were worn out.

Wang Xuan took a deep breath. The Super Material he consumed was even more terrifying, so he had to use it sparingly. He activated the flying sword that came with the Dark Gold Boat, identified a person, and slashed at him.

"Walk!"

The three of them turned and left because they sensed a threat. A warship had locked onto them, which made them very wary, especially since the Blood Shadow had appeared.

Wang Xuan piloted his Flying Boat at top speed to catch up!

Several Dao Body, like streaks of light, swooped down towards the mountains in the distance.

Thump!

At this moment, many beams of light swooped down from the sky, and warships opened fire, bombarding the three Blood Shadow, most of which they managed to evade.

Only one beam of light struck one person, causing his blood mist body to explode on the spot and cracks to appear in his true bones. That person then reassembled his Blood Shadow and fled once again.

Next, beams of light locked onto the three Dao Body one after another, bombarding them relentlessly. Eventually, some of the Energy Beam struck them.

In an instant, three Blood Shadow exploded intermittently, their "true bones" cracking as if they were about to shatter.

Now the situation has completely reversed. Some large organizations are using warships to attack them, blasting their bones until they crack, and the situation is extremely critical.

Boom!

At the critical moment, an Energy Beam was also aimed at Wang Xuan, making his hair stand on end. He sensed it in advance and quickly dodged it.

Bang!

A distant mountain peak crumbled and exploded, pierced and destroyed by that beam of light!

At the Zhao Family, Zhao Zejun's expression turned grave. He asked, "Is it the Sun family who attacked Wang Xuan?"

Just now, their Sky Eye system clearly detected that the beam of light came from a secret base of the Sun family and almost hit Wang Xuan's Flying Boat.

Someone contacted the Sun family, and it wasn't just the Zhao Family who discovered the anomalies at their base.

"It wasn't us. That base has lost contact. Most likely... it's been Transcendent Immortals, no, it's been controlled by some demons!"

The Sun family explained that they sensed something was wrong; those damned Transcendent Immortals were too wicked, knowing they were at odds with the New Star 'Supernatural Practitioner, and deliberately muddied the waters.

Sun Rongsheng's face was gloomy as he said, "Think about the ancient books unearthed from the ancient secret palaces, and what kind of cultivators they recorded. It is undeniable that some lineages are relatively orthodox. However, there are also many evil cultivators, ruthless individuals known as demons, who were troublemakers back then, and they will definitely not be benevolent now that they have returned. In addition, even the so-called immortals, those lineages with relatively bright paths, cannot be as pure as a blank sheet of paper; if they were not ruthless, they would not have survived to this day."

Just then, a dazzling light burst forth on the large screen, and golden umbrella-shaped energy clouds rose up, silencing the Sun family completely.

Their secret base was... destroyed!

In the mountains, Wang Xuan piloted his Flying Boat in pursuit, and the three Blood Shadow disappeared into the Desolate Mountain forest, temporarily escaping the surveillance of the Sky Eye and various detectors.

Finally, they reappeared in a primeval forest and surrounded Wang Xuan.

"It's true that a tiger fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs. I, Chi Meng, was once revered as a demon lord when I was in the mortal realm. But after returning this time, I am in such a sorry state, being bombarded by warships. The mortal realm has changed."

It was only then that Wang Xuan keenly realized that the three people had similar auras and were likely the same person. He looked at their true bones with suspicion, and something seemed amiss.

"Who are you? What grudge do I have against you? Why are you blocking my way?" Wang Xuan asked calmly.

"My name is Chi Meng, a true immortal of the Nether Blood Sect. You have killed many immortals who returned from behind the Great Curtain and are on a Kill List. Don't you understand? This mortal realm is not for a Supernatural Practitioner like you to dictate the affairs of the world."

The Blood Shadow, holding a divine net, said coldly, "If it weren't for the fact that Transcendent Immortals are being targeted by the mortal world, someone like you would crumble under the mere glance of a true immortal."

Wang Xuan stared at him, sensing that this person's immortal aura was disordered and something seemed amiss. As for the trash talk the other person was spouting, he simply ignored it; there were no "ifs" in that!

"Judging from your expression, you seem to look down on the Transcendent Immortals Chi Meng are quite arrogant. Well, wasn't I the same way back then? When I was in the mortal realm, I was the only one who mattered in Heaven and Earth, and I was afraid of no one! In my eyes, the Transcendent Immortals were nothing but a bunch of decaying old bones. After I became an immortal, I would naturally trample them under my feet. However, reality has taught me that I am still no match for the giants of the immortal path."

Wang Xuan possessed Spiritual Heavenly Eye with keen perception and felt that he was being overly pretentious. He interrupted him and said, "Transcendent Immortals class, instead of exploring the path of mythology and fighting your way to a new Supernatural World, you're arguing with a mere cultivator like me. Are you out of your mind?"

"Judging from your words, you have quite the ambition. Do you want to recreate the world and rebuild Supernatural World? You should first consider whether you can even survive today." The Blood Shadow smiled faintly.

Then, he suddenly made his move, joining forces with two other Blood Shadow to attack Wang Xuan. Almost instantly, the large red net suddenly disintegrated, and the three of them each held up a portion of it, with runes flashing between them, and endless blood mist spreading out.

Wang Xuan tensed up, erecting a protective light barrier. Then, he continuously activated the divine lamp, shooting out crimson Arrow Feather, and summoned his flying sword to slash forward.

"What a pity. The collapse of the extraordinary has rendered even the Nether Blood Array ineffective. Otherwise, even a person who Ascension to Immortality would have been dissolved into a pool of pus and blood."

Amidst the blood mist, the man who called himself Chi Meng sighed, somewhat regretfully.

Wang Xuan's Spiritual Heavenly Eye shone brightly, and he saw clearly that their blood-red phantoms were blurred, but the three bones were glowing and had clear marks showing, exactly the same as the blood-red marks on his body.

He immediately waved the God Slaying Banner without hesitation. This person was strange; he seemed to want to kill him, but he kept trying to leave a red mark on him, which was not what he really meant.

"What, this is..." A cry of alarm came from within the blood mist, the man who called himself Chi Meng panicked for the first time.

A violent collision sound came from the blood mist. Bone fragments vibrated, and a spiritual entity moved at high speed, constantly resonating, actually triggering the Transcendent Immortals!

That vibrant substance is contained within the true bones.

The immortal life force exploded, but the life force was very faint, not very strong, which did not match the rumors.

"I, Chi Meng, will not die, and will reappear in the world!"

The spiritual entity within the blood mist was shattered, and tranquility returned as the blood mist quickly dissipated.

"What kind of monster is this, Chi Meng?" Wang Xuan muttered to himself, walked over, and looked down at the three pieces of true bone that were cracked beyond recognition.

At the same time, he used his Spiritual Heavenly Eye to examine himself and was shocked to find that another red mark had appeared on his body. He had killed the main culprit, but the claw marks had not disappeared; instead, there were more.

So far, he has nine red marks on his body. What does this mean?

He tried to remove the mark himself; the red mark faded, but eventually it reappeared clearly.

"Has it taken root?"

He sat down cross-legged and silently recited the stone tablet scriptures, the Shakya True Scripture, and the Pre-Qin Golden Bamboo Slips, circulating the Supreme Scriptures to erase those red marks.

He breathed a sigh of relief; he had managed to eliminate it. However, he had left behind some faint traces that he needed to study, because he had actually sensed some kind of strange energy within these traces.

"Old Chen, do you know what this is?" Wang Xuan contacted Old Chen and described it to him, explaining what had happened.

"The Dao embryo, no, the demon embryo, no, the immortal embryo?!" Old Chen suddenly exclaimed, as this was very similar to the description in a miscellaneous passage of a scripture he had seen at the Zhong family not long ago.

"It looks a lot like the legendary Afterbirth Mark. Someone wants to use your body to reappear, nurture a divine embryo, and achieve their own goal," Old Chen explained in a rapid-fire manner.

Wang Xuan felt nauseous. Did they want to use his body to be reborn, or to use his flesh and blood to incubate an immortal embryo? Were they courting death? Or were they courting death?

He was disgusted. He didn't know if the other person was male or female, human or beast, and that they were attracted to his body.

"Don't rush. You can either crush him or deal with him, eventually turning the tables and seizing his destiny, leaving him with nothing but empty dreams," Old Chen told him, recounting various secrets behind the scenes.

Wang Xuan pinched his nose, held back for now, and began to examine the spoils of war, the most important of which were the three bones.

Meanwhile, the outside world was in turmoil, with the humans on the New Star engaged in heated discussions.

Many beings returned from behind the Great Curtain, and they were all discussing the first clash between the Transcendent Immortals world.

A large number of beings returned, many of them descendants of Transcendent Immortals and demons, and all were very young. They suddenly discovered that the young human— Wang Xuan —was cultivating in the mortal realm at a pace no slower than theirs.

Wang Xuan found a quiet place to observe the immortal bones, preparing to forcefully open the Inner Scenery Realm!

He frowned. The first piece of immortal bone contained no immortal life, nor any dormant primordial spirit, making it utterly worthless.

The second one was the same; it was clearly being used up and then completely consumed.

That's a bit scary!

When he explored the third piece, he saw a dim Inner Scenery Realm. He forcibly opened it and found a weak figure inside. The figure nodded to him, as if relieved, and turned into ashes.

This immortal bone was also used by someone, and its immortal life was exhausted.

"How terrifying! The immortal life of three immortal bones has been stolen!"

However, now that the Inner Scenery Realm has been opened, Wang Xuan has no reason not to take advantage of it.

"However, this Inner Scenery Realm is about to collapse..." He frowned. The owner of this place had vanished, and the dark Inner Scenery Realm was full of cracks, ready to crumble at any moment.

Wang Xuan's spiritual body sat cross-legged in the middle and began to cultivate. At the same time, a large number of Mysterious Factor were drawn to the Flying Boat, ancient lamp, Yellow Gourd and other rare treasures!

The Inner Scenery Realm gives people a sense of the Ren Ran of time and the changing of the years, but in reality, only the mind and senses have changed, and the reactions are faster, as Mysterious Matter engulf him.

Wang Xuan felt that his life essence was being nourished, his flesh and blood were rejoicing, and his spirit was becoming more vigorous. He was immersed in the highest level of meditation, and his strength was constantly improving!

I've returned the previous chapter; the reincarnation journey has been temporarily successful.
