As the whisper resounded within everyone's Primordial Spirit, the entire rift valley trembled violently, as if a ferocious beast that had slumbered for millions of years had suddenly awakened.
A vast and powerful aura of Hunyuan Great Luo Chaos surged up from the ground like a tide, making everyone's breath catch in their throats.
Jiang Yun felt the surrounding space become heavy, the circulation of Star Power in his Acupoints suddenly stagnated, and even the power of the Heavenly Dao in his inner Small World was faintly suppressed by this pressure.
"Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal!" The aura emanating from this demon god was exactly the same as the feeling Hongjun gave everyone when he became a saint.
"Not good! This Demon God Remnant Soul has been suppressed for so many years, yet it still possesses such power!" Jieyin 'Jieyin changed drastically. The Twelve-Petaled Golden Lotus bloomed with unprecedentedly brilliant Golden Light, protecting everyone within it. "This rift valley is formed from the demon's body. The demon lured us here; it must have some conspiracy. We can't stay here; we must leave immediately!"
However, before the words were finished, the rift formed from the demon god's spine began to close upwards, with the rock walls on both sides like the fangs of a giant beast, slowly biting shut, about to completely devour them.
Within the rift valley, thick black mist surged and rose from the ground, transforming in moments into bizarre and ferocious beasts that attacked them.
At this moment, the Remnant Soul and the original body of the demon god were suppressed. After so many years of fighting, he finally managed to weaken the power suppressing him, which allowed him to invade a part of this world under the Ruins of Guixu and use the power of Reincarnation to evolve this valley into a domain.
As long as his domain cannot be broken, he will eventually wear them down to death, and the soul and body of the deceased can continue to strengthen his domain.
"The aura of the Laws here is rather strange. We must break out before the rift closes!" Zhunti, sweeping the Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree to both sides. The seven-colored light slashed at the edge of the rift like a sharp blade, attempting to shatter the valley wall and slow down the closing speed.
However, the moment the rosy light touched the rock wall, it was swallowed up by a layer of purplish-black Chaos runes, leaving not a trace.
"This rift has been solidified by the Chaos Law, and ordinary Divine Ability cannot break through it. We must go up!" the Ziwei Star Lord said in a deep voice. The Star Seal in his hand transformed into a huge ancient Stars and smashed it hard against the rock wall, but it only shook off a few pieces of rock and could not shake the whole structure at all.
Jiang Yun sensed that the aura of the Laws here was somewhat similar to that of the Magic Treasure he had obtained, such as the Three Lives Stone and the Sin Mirror of Karma. It should be the Reincarnation Law. Could it be that the demon god suppressed here is the former Reincarnation Demon God?
"Whether it's true or not, let's get out of here first."
Jiang Yun took a deep breath, and all 365 Acupoints in his body lit up simultaneously. The power of the Stars intertwined with the World Power of his inner Small World, converging outside his body to form a Star Dharma Form that was a million feet tall.
He swept his arms horizontally, easily eliminating a large number of Mutated Beasts beside him and above his head, greatly accelerating the breakout and surprising everyone.
Just when they thought they could break through the encirclement quickly, a large number of chains suddenly extended from the rock walls on both sides of the rift, binding the arms of the Dharma Form Image. Many chains also drilled into the Dharma Form, seemingly trying to grab the main body inside Jiang Yun's Dharma Form.
Dharma Form flowed throughout his body, and the power of the Heavenly Dao from the Middle Thousand World within him surged out, empowering the Dharma Form and severing the invading black chains. However, even more evil chains attacked, leaving him no time to spare.
He had no choice but to abandon clearing a path, and with his arms like giant pillars supporting the sky, he forcefully braced himself against the rift that was closing in.
"I'll hold the rift, everyone break through quickly and rush upwards out of the rift!" Jiang Yun's voice echoed in the Dharma Form, carrying a hint of anxiety.
Without the support of the Primordial World Star Power, the Dharma Form was greatly depleted, and its endurance dropped drastically. He could feel the Spiritual Power within his body rapidly flowing away, and the power of his Inner World was also constantly being consumed in the struggle.
Seeing that Jiang Yun's Dharma Form was entangled, Zhenyuanzi and Hong Yun stepped aside to assist him.
"Junior Nephew Jiang Yun, I'm here to help you!" Zhenyuanzi shouted, and the Earth Scroll unfolded. Countless illusory Earth Veins spread out from the book and wrapped around Jiang Yun's Dharma Form body arms to relieve the pressure on him. Hong Yun then summoned the Nine-Nine Soul Scattering Gourd, and red sand poured down like a torrential rain, killing off the Chaos Retainers who were trying to get close from all directions.
However, the Demon God Remnant Soul would not let them escape so easily. A sinister laugh echoed from the depths of the rift valley, and countless black chains shot out from the ground, each chain ending in the soul of a Chaos Mutated Beasts.
Instantly, the puppet army, their eyes bloodshot, charged at the group with reckless ferocity, blocking every possible escape route and determined to trap them in the valley at all costs.
These Chaos Mutated Beasts possessed formidable Physical Body strength, and with the added blessing of the Chaos Law within the Guixu, they all unleashed astonishing energy. Some of Physical Body stronger ones charged to the front, while those behind used various Divine Ability powers and spells to suppress them from afar. Under the control of the Chaos Demon Gods, they formed a formation, severely slowing down Jiang Yun and his companions' escape speed.
"We can't keep dragging this out. Let me clear the way for you!" The Black Tortoise's soul roared, manipulating its Physical Body to grow to the size of Shanyue. Spiral patterns on its Tortoise Shell lit up, radiating a powerful defensive force.
He was about to rush forward to Jieyin a path for the crowd when Jieyin stopped him.
"No!" Jieyin gravely. "This demon god is skilled at manipulating souls. If your Physical Body is invaded by the chains, he may seize control of it, and you will become his puppet!"
Upon hearing this, the Black Tortoise let out a low growl of resentment, but it also knew that Jieyin had said was true. It had no choice but to shrink back and instead use its Magical Power and its own Tortoise Shell to assist everyone in their defense.
Above the rift, Jiang Yun's Star Dharma Form's arms were bulging with muscles, and the starlight fused with the World Power clashed violently with the Chaos force in the Guixu, producing waves of backlash.
He could feel the Dharma Form being compressed little by little. Although the closing of the rift had slowed down, it had not completely stopped.
"This won't do. On their home turf, we'll be worn down sooner or later!" the Ziwei Star Lord gritted his teeth and said. The Ziwei Great Formation unfolded beneath his feet, and countless illusory Stars transformed into a rain of arrows, shooting towards the surging Chaos Retainers.
However, the Mutated Beasts controlled by the chains seemed endless. Even if they were shattered, they would be quickly reborn by fusing with the Remnant Soul and fragments of True Spirit of other living beings under the strange power of the Guixu.
"This place has become his territory. Under the influence of the demon god's domain rules, the Mutated Beasts can keep regenerating. We can't break through the domain formed by his Laws with our own strength. We need to find a way to strengthen the sealing power. Only by relying on the power of the sealing can we deal with him!" Zhunti looked at the constantly regenerating Mutated Beasts and put forward his idea.
Jiang Yun suppressed the weakness caused by the depletion of his Spiritual Power and urged the Yin-Yang Fetal Membrane within his Inner World to accelerate the transformation of Chaos Qi to replenish his own consumption.
At the same time, with a thought, he summoned the Three Lives Stone, the Sin Mirror, and other Spiritual Treasure from within his Primordial Spirit.
As they are all treasures of the Earthly Dao, could there be any connection between these Spiritual Treasure and the Reincarnation Purple Lotus? Perhaps we could try to activate the Laws within them and see what happens.
