Its hands gripped the scorching Stone Shears tightly, completely disregarding that its hands were charred black, with only a thin layer of flesh connecting to the bones.

The black Spirit Rain above became even heavier at this moment, falling with a crackling sound, smashing into its flesh and leaving shallow and deep wounds. In just an instant, Candle Daoren was covered in flowing blood.

But at this moment, it couldn't care about the countless wounds all over its body, desperately injecting spiritual power into the Magical Artifact.

However, this effort was ultimately in vain.

At this moment, Wei Zhong's cultivation had reached the Late Stage Foundation Establishment, and the strength of his spiritual power was far from comparable to the Early Stage Foundation Establishment. Therefore, the power of the Flying Throwing Art driven by this spiritual power was far greater than the previous two times.

The black ball streaked across a black line, directly hitting Candle Daoren.

The red Stone Shears in front of it lasted only a moment before shattering into pieces, followed by pressing down on Candle Daoren's body.

The enormous power carried by the stone ball pressed the two into the rock wall behind, penetrating to an unknown depth.

"Boom!"

In the middle of the night, the huge roar awakened many Li Family members.

"What happened?"

Li Ren, the Li Family Patriarch, woke up from his cultivation. As soon as he left his cave, someone immediately came forward to report.

"Patriarch, it's the sound from Black Lake Island."

"Black Lake Island?"

Li Ren immediately thought of the Candle Daoren who had been sucking the Li Family's blood for ten years. Could it be that something happened to it?

Seeing the Patriarch in a daze, the person below reminded:

"Patriarch?"

The latter came back to his senses and said:

"Send someone to take a look, but don't go to the island. Just call out 'Senior' by the island."

The person below had a bitter face. Everyone knew that the senior was brutal, and those who went would probably not have a good end.

But since the Patriarch had arranged it, someone should go.

Wei Zhong advanced along the passage smashed out by the black ball. Candle Daoren was no longer to be seen, or rather, it was everywhere in this passage.

The Storage Bag is gone too.

Candle Daoren had been shattered into slag, and its Storage Bag naturally couldn't survive this blow. As for the items inside, they must have been torn to pieces by the collapsing space.

But with Wei Zhong's wealth, this loss was nothing.

At the end of the passage, Wei Zhong finally saw the black ball deeply embedded in the rock.

After digging it out, Wei Zhong brushed off the dust on its surface and saw that it was smooth, round, and intact.

He couldn't help but sigh: What kind of treasure is this that such an impact couldn't leave a trace on it?

Looking back, he could only see a little light from the entrance of the cave in the distance.

This blow almost pierced the mountain from the waist. You must know that this is not ordinary rock, but spiritual energy that has been tempered for countless years, and it has long been extremely solid.

Qi Refining cultivators who want to excavate the mountain rocks here must use special mining Magical Artifacts, otherwise, with just a few Tier 1 Magic Swords, they wouldn't be able to dig this deep even if they broke them.

Wei Zhong returned to the cave and heard the hissing sounds from the outer passage. He went to the outer cave and found a large number of Blood-Eating Bats flying around.

Wei Zhong waved his sleeve to drive away the bat swarm, only to see a two-foot-long remnant corpse among them, which was the Blood-Eating Bat King.

"Dead?"

Wei Zhong stepped forward to investigate and found that it had been dead for a while. It didn't seem like external damage, but rather like backlash.

Usually, only when the master is killed will the Spirit Beast they control die like this, but he clearly fought with that Candle Daoren for a while. Wei Zhong was wondering why he didn't see this Spirit Beast come to help, how could it be dead?

Wei Zhong couldn't help but think of the strike he used to launch a sneak attack, which shattered Candle Daoren's heart and internal organs. Normally, with the powerful life force of Foundation Establishment, he wouldn't die immediately, but he wouldn't last long either.

But not only did he not die, but he also merged with that Blood Body, turning into a monster and fighting fiercely with him.

Could it be that the one fighting with him was not Candle Daoren?

A chill suddenly rose in Wei Zhong's heart. There was a big problem with the Blood Body Technique.

Isn't the avatar cultivated according to this Technique for oneself? Then who is it being raised for?

Wei Zhong didn't dare to investigate further, and was very grateful that he hadn't been so dizzy as to practice this Technique in the first place.

Sure enough, there is no free lunch in the world. How can the True Lord inheritance spread throughout the world be so easy to obtain?

Some rogue cultivators still hope to cultivate this Blood Body Technique to obtain the True Lord's inheritance, but little do they know that they are just doing the work for others.

He shifted his attention from the Blood-Eating Bat King to the surrounding Blood-Eating Bat swarm.

The Bat King is dead. Generally speaking, after a period of fighting within the group, a new Bat King will be produced. Let's leave this group of Blood-Eating Bats here for the time being.

Wei Zhong tidied up the inside of the cave, cleaned up the traces of the battle, and even filled the cave caused by the Flying Throwing Art with Stone Shears.

He kept the only remaining painting, and Wei Zhong marveled at it. When he stuck it on the mountain rock, it showed a painting of the mountain rock, and from the outside, there was no difference between the inside and outside of the painting. It was simply a disguise artifact.

It also has the function of concealing spiritual energy, which makes its value even higher. He didn't know what kind of material this strange object was made of. Wei Zhong groped around and found nothing, so he had to put it into his Grotto-heaven.

When he came out of this cave, he found that the Li Family had already been alarmed by the movement here.

In the distance, an old Qi Refining cultivator was floating on the lake surface, riding a Magic Sword, not daring to step into Black Lake Island.

Just as his face was struggling, a voice suddenly came to his ear:

"Summon your family's disciple Li Haowen to come here."

He was relieved and bowed to the mountain peak on the island, then turned his Flying Sword and left quickly.

Inside the Azurewood Sect, Nie Yuansen stood with his back to the young man behind him and said:

"ZhengSheng, how is Yue Chan?"

The young man respectfully replied:

"Hall Master Duan said that her soul has been severely damaged and needs to be nurtured. If this injury cannot be recovered, I am afraid that she will never have the possibility of Core Formation in her life."

The man raised his head, only to see that he had a handsome face, fair skin, and an unspeakable masculine aura between his eyebrows. Anyone who saw him would definitely call him a beautiful man.

This was none other than Yao ZhengSheng, the Azurewood Sect First Disciple, disciple of Sect Leader Nie Yuansen, possessing both Water and Wood Spiritual Roots, and both were Superior Spiritual Roots, far surpassing others. He had already reached the Late Stage Foundation Establishment realm.

"Alas, who would have thought that the Blood Sea True Lord's inheritance would have such a trap? It has truly been hard on the two of you."

"It is this disciple's fault for not protecting Junior Sister well."

Yao ZhengSheng lowered his head, a trace of guilt flashing across his face.

"It's not your fault. Who could have imagined that a wisp of a divided soul was hidden within that token? It took advantage of Yue Chan's vulnerability while she was refining her avatar. If you hadn't discovered it in time, I'm afraid Yue Chan would have been devoured and replaced by someone else."

After saying these words, Nie Yuansen slowly walked to Yao ZhengSheng's side, patted him on the shoulder, and instructed:

"Just leave Chan'er to me, her father. You don't need to worry.

Recently, the sect has gained something in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range and has already collected a portion of the Spirit Herbs needed for the Dustfall Pill.

If the pill is successfully refined, you should start preparing well for the Core Formation matter."

"This disciple will certainly live up to Master's high expectations!"
