Before he could finish speaking, those black chains had already expanded severalfold, twisting and tangling madly as though they meant to devour the entire space!
Never having suffered such a devastating blow, Qin Shaofeng was suddenly overwhelmed by helplessness, his consciousness gradually scattering. Just as he was about to fall into despair, his teacher's earlier teachings echoed through his mind once more:
"Life and death, departure and remaining—all are decided by a single thought. If you can cast aside stray thoughts and focus upon the righteous path, you may naturally rise above the myriad worldly bonds, shatter through the realm, and become immortal!"
"The righteous path?" Qin Shaofeng's eyes flew wide open. A surging force of righteous conviction suddenly burst forth from his dantian, rushing and churning through his body!
In an instant, he completely broke free from the black chains' restraints. His entire body was surrounded by dazzling white radiance, emanating an incomparably vast and majestic righteous aura! Beneath the illumination of that aura, the twisted black chains actually scattered of their own accord, unable to draw even half a step closer!
"This righteous aura... is so powerful!" The white-clad creature's expression changed as well, and she instinctively retreated several steps. Though she was strange and evil, she had been born with a trace of righteous conviction. Faced with Qin Shaofeng's aura of the righteous path, so pure and crystalline, even she felt a measure of awe.
"A mere evil specter cannot bind my true heart!"
Qin Shaofeng stared coldly at the woman in white, his eyes filled with majestic righteousness. He slowly curled his fingers into a claw, brilliant light flashing in his palm. It was the ultimate killing technique from the Nine Transformations of the Firmament—the Reincarnation Destruction Palm!
"Die!"
With a low shout from Qin Shaofeng,
