Melee

With a wave of his hand, Yinshuo unleashed a long black whip that snaked out like a serpent, its surface gleaming with a chilling light and carrying a sinister aura, aimed directly at the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast.

Xing Wenyao also activated his green wooden ruler Law Treasure. Green light flashed on the ruler, and a strong vine quickly grew out, pointing directly at the Pill Furnace in the mouth of the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast.

With a thought, Jing Wuming conjured a giant hand, ten feet tall, in mid-air. The giant hand formed a claw and reached out to grab the Pill Furnace.

Xing Gaohan then commanded the fire phoenix, which swooped down, its sharp claws outstretched, pointing directly at the Pill Furnace.

The four of them made their moves almost simultaneously.

Xing Wenyao, Xing Gaohan, Jing Wuming all had their sights set on the Pill Furnace.

Yinshuo's target was the corpse of the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast; more precisely, his target was the soul within the corpse.

The four attacks came from four different directions, almost completely blocking all of the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast's escape routes.

The Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast seemed to be in dire straits.

It suddenly shook its head, and the Pill Furnace in its mouth flew out and rushed straight towards the fire phoenix.

The vines and giant hand also changed direction, heading towards the Pill Furnace.

Suddenly, the path ahead of the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast was clear and unobstructed.

It leaped with all its might and sped forward, barely dodging the long whip that was coiling around it.

"Wen Yao, help me block Jing Wuming's giant hand!" Xing Gaohan shouted urgently.

A hint of displeasure flashed deep in Xing Wenyao's eyes, but his expression remained unchanged, showing no sign of it.

The vines coiled in the air and suddenly lashed out at the giant hand that was falling from the sky.

Before the giant hand phantom, the vines appeared somewhat weak and were swatted away, but this also significantly reduced the giant hand's speed.

Xing Gaohan's face lit up with joy. With Jing Wuming blocked by Xing Wenyao, the Pill Furnace was already in his grasp.

The phoenix's claws were slightly bent, and it was about to grab the Pill Furnace.

"Bang!"

A muffled thud suddenly came from inside the Pill Furnace.

Immediately afterwards, the furnace lid was suddenly flung open as if by a powerful force, and it hurtled rapidly toward the fire phoenix.

The force of the furnace lid was immense, causing the fire phoenix to stagger backward several feet.

The moment the furnace lid was blown off, the furnace body was subjected to a huge reaction force and flew rapidly in the opposite direction.

Just then, three items were suddenly thrown out of the Pill Furnace.

A blood-red token, and two dark red pills.

The three objects were thrown in the exact direction of the vines and the giant hand.

The vines stretched out quickly, coiled nimbly, and wrapped around one of the pills.

The giant, illusory hand gently grasped and firmly held onto another pill.

The blood-red token fell to the ground unchallenged.

Having failed to obtain the elixir, Xing Gaohan's face was as Xing Gaohan as frost. He urged the fire phoenix to pounce towards the giant hand.

Having achieved his goal, Jing Wuming of lingering. Law Power to guide the giant hand phantom, he turned and fled into the distance.

At the same time, Yinshuo's long whip Law Treasure finally caught up with the fleeing Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast and entangled one of its hind legs.

The Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast kicked its legs relentlessly, trying to break free from the whip's restraints. Each kick was accompanied by the sound of wind and thunder, displaying astonishing power.

However, it did not escape the whip's grasp. On the contrary, the whip continued to extend and climb towards its body.

Suddenly.

Directly in front of the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast, two tall figures pierced through the ghostly mist; they were Yuan Hao Wind Eagle.

The Wind Eagle unleashed its Azure Nether Astral Wind, transforming it into a massive, dark blue wind blade that slashed towards the long whip.

Yuan Hao activated the Profound Yin Heavy Water, sweeping it towards the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast, intending to imprison it.

At that moment, the entire secret realm underwent a dramatic change.

The crimson pillar of light that rose from the nine stone pillars suddenly began to expand, spreading out in an instant over a distance of thousands of miles.

In the blink of an eye, crimson pillars of light spread to every corner of the secret realm.

Everyone in the secret realm, including the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast, froze instantly. Even the Nascent Soul Cultivator and the two fourth-tier great demons were not spared.

Everyone felt a powerful repulsive force coming towards them.

This repulsive force was completely irresistible, as if the world itself was driving them away.

"This is a sign that the secret realm is closing." This thought flashed through everyone's minds.

My vision began to distort, and the world began to change.

In the blink of an eye.

The group found themselves in a valley.

The valley is not large, about ten miles in circumference.

There are no tall trees in the valley, only some low shrubs and wild grasses.

It was dusk, and the entire valley could be seen at a glance.

Song Wen was located on the edge of the valley.

The three Golden Core cultivators from the Jing Family, Xing Yixuan, Gan Hong, Song Wen, and four others, were scattered throughout the valley.

Above the valley, four Nascent Soul Cultivators, two late-stage fourth-tier demon beasts, Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast were still locked in a fierce struggle.

"Call out--"

A whooshing sound rang out.

The Pill Furnace crashed down from mid-air.

"Bang!"

Dirt flew everywhere.

The Pill Furnace landed five miles away from Song Wen, just a short distance from Gan Hong.

Gan Hong hesitated for a moment, then noticed that the Nascent Soul experts high in the sky seemed to have no time to deal with the situation on the ground.

He unleashed a burst of Law Power, snatched the Pill Furnace into his hand, and turned to flee out of the valley.

Seeing this, Jing Lie, who was only a mile away from Gan Hong, roared.

"Put down the Pill Furnace."

Jing Lie activated his movement Movement Method and chased after Gan Hong.

At that moment, Jing Wuming's voice came from the sky.

"All members of the Jing Family, do not get entangled with others, and evacuate Fangzhu Island as soon as possible."

After saying that, Jing Wuming ignored the lives of the three Golden Core cultivators, withdrew his giant hand holding the Demon Soul Spirit-Breaking Pill, and fled into the distance.

"You old scoundrel from the Jing Family, don't you dare leave!"

Xing Gaohan pursued Jing Wuming.

Xing Wenyao put away the pills that were entangled in the vines, looked at Jing Wuming and Xing Gaohan who had already flown out of the valley, pondered for a moment, and then chased after them.

The two demons and Yinshuo are still fighting over the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast.

Yinshuo's whip didn't seem to be of high quality; it was split in two by the wind blade formed by the Azure Nether Astral Wind.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, the Profound Yin Heavy Water surged upwards, forming a blue water sphere that enveloped the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast.

The Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast kicked its four hooves with all its might, but the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast Water clung to its body like a bone-deep infection, surging and rising with each kick, making it impossible to shake off.

Seeing that the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast was about to be swept away by Yuan Hao, Yinshuo hurriedly roared.

"Stop! I only want the soul within the corpse; you want the body of the Wind-Thunder Golden-Eyed Beast. There is no conflict between us."

"Human Race are despicable, cunning, and untrustworthy. I will not make a deal with you Human Race."

Yuan Hao's tone was filled with hatred and disdain for the Human Race.

Yinshuo flew into a rage, "How dare you two beasts act so recklessly on my Human Race territory!"

Inside the underground cave, the two demons were too badly injured, and even though Yinshuo was fighting two against one, he showed no fear.

Yinshuo transformed into a thousand-year-old mummified corpse with a ferocious appearance.

A torrent of Corpse-Baleful Qi erupted wildly from his body, like a dark flood, rushing straight towards the blue water sphere.

The Corpse-Baleful Qi condensed into twisted and terrifying ghosts, which opened their ferocious maws and frantically tore at the blue water sphere.
