Kunpeng used the Demon Master Palace to suppress this region spanning hundreds of millions of miles, preventing Hongyun from escaping with his speed.
At the same time, the two fought desperately. Even Hongyun showed no mercy at such a critical moment.
Of the two, Kunpeng's cultivation was actually higher. He was a mid-stage Quasi-Saint who had Severed the Three Corpses twice.
Despite all his years of secluded cultivation, Hongyun remained an early-stage Quasi-Saint and had severed only one corpse.
However, Kunpeng lacked a suitable Innate Spiritual Treasure. Moreover, he had already deployed the Demon Master Palace to suppress the void and prevent Hongyun from fleeing.
At this moment, Hongyun activated the Nine-Nine Soul Scattering Gourd. The red sand within the gourd seemed inexhaustible.
It surged forth continuously, leaving Kunpeng hard-pressed to deal with it. At the same time, another stream of red sand swirled like a tornado around Hongyun, shielding him completely.
This red sand not only had the effect of bewildering souls and confusing the primordial spirit, but it was also exceptionally sharp. If it struck someone, even a Quasi-Saint's body would struggle to withstand it and might be ground to dust at once.
Therefore, though Kunpeng was anxious, he could not make a move for the moment. He could only use various divine abilities to circle Hongyun, seeking an opportunity to strike.

Then, a cloud of light suddenly emerged
