Fusion with the Golden Dragon of Destiny! Buffs Maxed Out! Betting Everything on One Desperate Gamble!
"Crash—"
At first glance, the starry sky was drenched in blood, crimson blood flowing thickly like an inverted waterfall hanging from the peak of the chaotic starry void. It was not the Dutian God-Demon Array, yet it was even more terrifying than the Dutian God-Demon Array!
This sight shocked the eyes of all the sages of the heavens and sent tremors through the souls of all living beings.
Everyone who witnessed it was left wide-eyed with shock and horror!
Even Hongjun's expression changed drastically, and he became incomparably solemn.
His divine gaze was like a torch as he stared at the Slaughter True Body that was about to take shape. Waves of shock surged through his heart, and he could not help but suck in a cold breath—the kind that chilled him to the core!
"How is this merely sacrificing the ancestral witches' essence blood? This is clearly sacrificing herself! Mad, this brat has truly gone mad!"
"You little wretch, how dare you?!"
Hongjun roared madly, looking utterly deranged. The Dao Ancestor's dignity was gone, as was a Sage's composure!
"Stop her!"
"Do not let her succeed in forming it!"
Suddenly, Taiqing Laozi shouted at the top of his lungs. He seemed to have a powerful premonition—ominous! Dangerous! Terrifying! Something was terribly wrong!
At the same time, fear, panic, and horror...
All kinds of emotions tangled together, pressing down on the Grand Pure Sage until he could barely breathe, as though he would suffocate to death the next second!
At the command, Yuanshi and Jieyin, the two Sages present, immediately faced a great enemy, their expressions filled with horror.
Almost instinctively, they stepped forward in unison, wrapped in overwhelming Sage power as they charged to kill that... towering and majestic Blood-colored Dharma Body!
Hongjun saw all of this.
His Sage's Dao Body trembled as he muttered blankly, "Stop her? Heh heh, I'm afraid it's already too late! It's useless now! Madwoman, she is absolutely a madwoman!"
Just as Hongjun had said.
Chen Xuan sacrificed herself, using all the ancestral witches' essence blood to nourish the Slaughter True Body, blending in immeasurable Heaven and Earth Calamity and Slaughter Qi, Blood Qi, Malevolent Qi, Grievance Qi... along with World-Opening Merit, the Destiny's Fortune of the Lord of Reincarnation, and a shallow portion of the Will of the Underworld Path. With so many buffs stacked together—
It could be said that from this moment onward, the Slaughter True Body was Houtu, and Houtu was the true form of the Slaughter True Body!
The two had completely fused. They would share glory and ruin alike!
Let alone the Sages.
Even Dao Ancestor Hongjun would not dare touch a single strand of her hair!
"Bang! Bang! Bang!..."
"Waaah!"
"Cough, cough, cough—!!!"
See? Taiqing, Yuanshi, and Jieyin, three Hunyuan Sages, struck together, unleashing supreme killing divine arts that descended like a torrential storm and blasted into the Slaughter True Body.
The momentum was immense, and the display was magnificent.
Yet...
It was all thunder and no rain!
The united attack of the Sages came with unstoppable force, yet not only did it fail to harm the Slaughter True Body in the slightest—
Every one of them instead coughed blood into the sky!
They vomited blood without end!
They coughed up mouthful after mouthful of blood!
The whole scene...
Was exceedingly bizarre!
"⊙∀⊙!!!"
"⊙∀⊙!!!"
"⊙∀⊙!!!"
"..."
They were dumbfounded. Countless cultivators and many innate deities watching from across heaven and earth were all utterly stunned!
What was going on?
"Senior Chen Xuan, are you truly going to sacrifice yourself and exhaust all the ancestral witches' essence blood to nourish the Slaughter True Body?! This... is an extremely dangerous move!"
At this moment, even Houtu herself was thoroughly startled by Chen Xuan's mad action, and she hurriedly asked.
Feeling the ancestral witches' essence blood origin within her body draining wildly and about to run dry, Houtu trembled violently, her lovely face paling as her delicate body shook without stop.
She was not enjoying this, nor was she excited.
Rather...
Even her Dao heart and primordial spirit were suffering a violent blow, shaking and swaying madly!
She could not calm down for a long while!
Senior Chen Xuan was simply too terrifying!
In response to Houtu's doubts, Chen Xuan grinned. "Strictly speaking, I'm sacrificing your body, not mine."
"Uh-_-||..."
Houtu's lips twitched when she heard that, and she immediately retorted anxiously, "You and I are one, sharing life and death, existing and perishing together, sharing glory and ruin alike. If I perish, Senior, you will also..."
By the end, Houtu choked up. She was speechless through her sobs, so anxious that she was nearly crying.
Tears then streamed down her face, making her look pitiful and delicate, enough that anyone who saw her would feel compelled to cherish and comfort her.
Houtu naturally knew that Chen Xuan meant well. Everything he did was to help the Witch Clan reverse their fate, turn creation around, and seize a thread of hope.
At the same time, she understood even more clearly that once she sacrificed herself and fused with the Slaughter True Body, there would be no turning back, not even the slightest room for retreat!
This was far too radical, far too risky!
It truly was a perilous move among perilous moves!
With even the slightest mistake, she and Chen Xuan would both fall forever into a place beyond redemption!
Houtu was not afraid of death, nor was she afraid of causing a monstrous catastrophe.
What was there to fear in death?
What was wrong with death?
She merely... merely feared dragging Chen Xuan down with her!
Along the way, Chen Xuan had already given far too much for the Witch Clan and for her.
Houtu truly could not bear it, nor could she accept it for the moment.
Out of concern for Chen Xuan, she wept like rain on pear blossoms as she said in a trembling voice, "Senior Chen Xuan, consider it Houtu begging you. Let us stop. It is still not too late!"
"Stop? Are you kidding? We have only just begun. Have you forgotten what I told you? Since this is a dead end, then embrace the will to die. Raise your blade toward the abyss, and seek life through death!"
"Rise amid ruin, transcend through slaughter—only then can we break this deadlock!"
"Since the Sages of the heavens refuse to leave us a path to live, then we will kill them all and slaughter them all!"
"Since the Heavenly Dao refuses to leave us a path to live, then we will pierce the heavens!"
Houtu was extremely emotional, and Chen Xuan immediately tried to comfort her.
Yet his tone remained as calm and indifferent as ever, as though he were merely discussing some utterly trivial matter.
Even after a long, long time.
Houtu's sobbing finally stopped. Her expression gradually became solemn, her gaze increasingly resolute, as though she had made some grave decision.
She nodded while sniffing back tears. "Mm, Houtu understands. I will never forget Senior's great kindness for as long as I live, and I will always remember it in my heart. You... continue."
After receiving Houtu's approval.
Chen Xuan felt rather gratified.
Then...
The music continued, and so did the dance!
The madness continued, and so did the insanity!
"Hahahaha—come on, kill me if you dare!"
"I am standing right here now. Kill me! Go ahead and kill me! If you have the ability, then come at me!"
Chen Xuan threw back her head and laughed wildly, looking deranged and mad as a demon, utterly unrestrained and carefree.
Once she finished speaking.
With a thought, she poured every last drop of the ancestral witches' essence blood into the Slaughter True Body. Her supply had nearly dried up completely, with not even a single drop remaining!
At first glance.
The Blood-colored Dharma Body stood between heaven and earth, towering over tens of millions of zhang high. Its feet trod upon the lands of the eight directions, while its head reached into the boundless primordial starry sky. It was savage and terrifying.
It had originally been dim and ethereal, but after Chen Xuan's operation, it immediately became incomparably solid, like blood-tempered agate—crystalline and translucent.
Endless Blood Calamity Qi swirled around its body. Within that vivid crimson blood-color was terrifying malevolence, bone-chilling and horrifying, inexplicably striking fear into the heart!
However...
That was not all!
After sacrificing herself and pouring the ancestral witches' essence blood into the Slaughter True Body.
Chen Xuan's lips curled upward again, revealing a faintly savage smile as she murmured, "Just one final step remains..."
"Golden Dragon of Destiny, fuse!"
"Condense for me—!!!"
Rumble!
Her voice rang out like a great bell, instantly resounding throughout the universe, the heavens, and all worlds.
"Roar—"
As her words fell.
A soaring and thunderous dragon roar suddenly exploded through the starry sky, shaking heaven and earth and startling all who heard it.
In an instant.
The Witch Clan's Golden Dragon of Destiny condensed and manifested!
Dragon roars shook the mountains and rivers, while boundless dragon might swept through the thirty-three heavens. Then it shot into the sky, its savage dragon head diving straight toward the Slaughter True Body and crashing into it without hesitation!
Then...
Amid endless radiant golden light, vast divine brilliance poured down from the sky as the two completely fused together!
There, all the buffs were stacked to the maximum. The Slaughter True Body had successfully condensed into form!
"The Witch Clan's Golden Dragon of Destiny?! It fused into the Slaughter True Body as well?! ⊙∀⊙! Hiss—what exactly is that bitch Houtu trying to do?!"
"Isn't it obvious? Not only is she betting her own life, she is even wagering the entire Witch Clan on one desperate gamble! That bitch... has truly gone completely insane!!"
"Damn it! If I'd known, I wouldn't have come!"
The shocking developments immediately stunned the three Sages of the Profound Gate!
The Sages were in danger!
