Having said that, Black Impermanence raised his hand and shouted coldly, "Attack! Kill them and seize the Emperor Bell!" As soon as his voice fell, the two black-clad men behind him, both at the Sixth Transformation of Dragon Transformation realm, immediately moved and rushed towards Snow Empress and Qingyunzi. Their sinister aura surged, and they held black longswords in their hands. The longswords were surrounded by black sinister flames and emitted a pungent smell of blood. Their moves were vicious and aimed directly at the vital points of the two men.
At the same time, hundreds of ghost soldiers also attacked, brandishing their weapons and surrounding the two. The dense black figures surrounded them, and the eerie aura almost swallowed up the entire space.
"Senior brother, be careful! You take care of these Yin soldiers. I'll deal with these two black-clad men at the Sixth Transformation of Dragon Transformation!" Snow Empress shouted at Qingyunzi, manipulating the Ziwei Emperor Bell and smashing it towards the two black-clad men. The Emperor Bell, carrying a blazing purple light, moved with incredible speed, instantly arriving in front of the two black-clad men. The sound of the bell rang out, containing powerful divine power that shook the minds of the two men.
"Holy Maiden, rest assured, I won't hold you back!" Qingyunzi nodded, a resolute glint in his eyes. He swung his cyan longsword, unleashing a cyan sword aura that slashed towards the Yin soldiers around him. His cultivation at the Third Transformation of Dragon Transformation realm erupted at full power, cyan spiritual energy swirling around him. With each swing of his sword, countless sword energies intertwined, forming a cyan barrier that blocked the attacking Yin soldiers. Each sword aura carried a chilling spiritual energy, capable of easily slaying Yin soldiers at the Mortal Shedding Realm and Qi Condensation Realm. Even those at the Qi Transformation Realm would find it difficult to withstand his attacks.
The two black-clad men, both at the Sixth Transformation of Dragon Transformation, saw the Emperor Bell hurtling towards them, a flicker of fear in their eyes, but they did not back down. They exchanged a glance, simultaneously channeling their Yin energy, brandishing their black longswords, unleashing two massive black sword energies, each carrying raging Yin fire, towards the Emperor Bell. "Boom!" With a deafening roar, the Emperor Bell collided with the black sword energies, purple light and black Yin fire intertwining, bursting forth with dazzling sparks. A powerful shockwave swept outwards, instantly uprooting the surrounding snow and creating a massive snowstorm.
Snow Empress felt a powerful, sinister force rush towards her, her arms went slightly numb, and she involuntarily took two steps back. However, she did not panic at all. Instead, she once again circulated the Ziwei Power, pouring all her cultivation into the Emperor Bell. The purple light on the Emperor Bell grew even more intense, its imperial might awe-inspiring, and the sound of the bell grew louder, pressing down on the two men in black. " Ziwei Emperor Technique, Suppress Evil!" Snow Empress shouted, manipulating the Emperor Bell and smashing it down on the two men in black again. This time, the power of the Emperor Bell was even greater than before, and the purple light almost illuminated the entire world.
The two men in black paled. They could sense the immense power of this attack; a direct hit would surely result in severe injury. Daring not to be careless, they quickly joined forces, gathering all the Yin energy within their bodies. Their black longswords merged into one, forming a massive black blade shadow that slashed towards the Emperor Bell. " Black Baleful Double Slash!" they roared simultaneously, the black blade shadow carrying earth-shattering power as it hurtled towards the Emperor Bell.
With a deafening clang, the Emperor Bell clashed with the black blade shadow. The purple light instantly suppressed the black yin fire, and the powerful force blasted towards the two men in black. The two men in black let out a scream, their sinister aura instantly annihilated by most of the Emperor Bell's divine power. Their bodies were also thrown backward, spitting out a mouthful of black blood, their aura weakened, and their injuries extremely serious.
The Snow Empress gave them no chance to breathe. With a swift movement, she followed closely behind, manipulating the Emperor Bell to smash it down on the two men in black again. The Emperor Bell, radiating a blazing purple light, instantly arrived before them, giving them no chance to resist. "Boom!" Another deafening roar echoed as the two men in black were struck by the Emperor Bell, their bodies instantly shattered into pieces, turning into two wisps of black smoke that dissipated into the air, their lives utterly extinguished.
On the other side, the battle between Qingyunzi and the Yin soldiers was also extremely fierce. Although the Yin soldiers were numerous, Qingyunzi, with his agile movements and powerful cultivation, moved freely among them. His azure sword energy crisscrossed, and each strike could kill a Yin soldier. But the Yin soldiers seemed endless; one batch was killed, and another batch came. Moreover, there were many Yin soldiers at the Dragon Transformation Realm. These Yin soldiers were extremely powerful, Qingyunzi gradually felt some strain. Several wounds appeared on his body, and blood stained his Daoist robe. His aura also became somewhat weak.
"Senior brother, I'm here to help you!" After dealing with the two black-clad men at the Sixth Transformation of Dragon Transformation, Snow Empress immediately rushed towards Qingyunzi, manipulating the Emperor Bell to emit purple chimes that bombarded the Yin soldiers besieging Qingyunzi. The chimes contained powerful divine energy; those Yin soldiers struck by the chimes instantly had their meridians ruptured, their breaths cut off, and they collapsed to the ground, turning into cold corpses. In a short while, most of the Yin soldiers besieging Qingyunzi were killed, and the remaining Yin soldiers were terrified, losing all will to fight and retreating in panic.
Qingyunzi breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at Snow Empress gratefully. "Thank you, Holy Maiden. If you hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to hold on."
"We are comrades-in-arms, no need for thanks," the Snow Empress said softly, her voice full of concern. "You are injured, rest for a moment. Leave the remaining Yin soldiers to me." With that, she channeled her Ziwei Power, manipulating the Emperor Bell to bombard the remaining Yin soldiers. The Emperor Bell hovered in the air, its purple light blazing, its chimes ringing out continuously. Each chime slashed down a group of Yin soldiers. In just a few minutes, all the Yin soldiers were wiped out, the ground littered with their corpses, and the evil aura gradually dissipated.
Standing atop the clouds, Black Impermanence gazed at the scene below, his face growing increasingly grim, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes. He hadn't expected the Snow Empress to be so powerful, easily slaying two of his subordinates at the Sixth Transformation of Dragon Transformation realm, and even killing hundreds of his Yin soldiers. This had caused him to lose face, and his anger burned ever brighter. "Damn it!" Black Impermanence roared, his figure flashing as he charged towards the Snow Empress and Qingyunzi. His sinister aura surged, his black official robes fluttering, and his dark eyes were filled with murderous intent.
" Snow Empress, you're courting death!" Black Impermanence's voice was icy cold. A black chain suddenly appeared in his hand, wreathed in black eerie flames, radiating a powerful and malevolent energy. It was his natal magic weapon— the Soul-Locking Chain. The Soul-Locking Chain was forged from countless wronged souls and could devour people's souls. Its power was extremely strong; once entangled by the Soul-Locking Chain, even Dragon Transformation Realm expert would find it difficult to escape.
Snow Empress's expression was solemn. She could sense that Black Impermanence's aura was much stronger than before, clearly indicating that he was truly enraged. She shielded Qingyunzi behind her, manipulated the Ziwei Emperor Bell, which hovered in front of her, and prepared for battle. "Senior brother, you should quickly adjust your breathing and recover your energy. Leave this to me!" Snow Empress said to Qingyunzi, her tone firm and unwavering.
