Rescuing Yi Qingtian

"Gah!?"

The demonic shadow incarnation was instantly frozen in midair, its entire body stiff and utterly motionless.

The Body Immobilization Spell locked qi and bound spirits. It could immobilize everything in the world, tangible or intangible—it was simply that unreasonable.

The demonic shadow incarnation hovered between substance and illusion, but it possessed true spirit and thought, and demonic qi flowed through it. Naturally, it could be restrained by the Body Immobilization Spell.

Though its Dao Comprehension was not weak, it had just expended a great deal of demonic qi. It was only an incarnation of the demonic shadow to begin with, its true spirit was weak, and to possess Lu Zheng, it had withdrawn its protective demonic qi.

The demonic shadow incarnation's expression changed instantly as it let out a shrill, furious roar, struggling to break free from the Body Immobilization Spell's restraint.

But then...

"Golden Citadel Heart Sword, sever!"

A glittering golden sword of mental power, radiating dazzling brilliance, shot from Lu Zheng's Sea of Consciousness. It vanished in a flash and instantly plunged into the demonic shadow incarnation's head.

"Arghhh!"

The demonic shadow incarnation's soul was struck by the Golden Citadel Heart Sword. It immediately rippled, the demonic qi throughout its body falling into disorder, and its efforts to break free from the Body Immobilization Spell stalled for an instant.

The next moment, Lu Zheng raised his hand again. A sphere of light, glowing gold and brimming with terrifying power, suddenly rose behind him.

The demonic shadow incarnation's expression changed drastically.

"Qingwei Jade Supreme, Nine Yang Jade Origin Divine Lightning—strike!"

This was the Nine Yang Jade Origin
