Deep within Withered Cloud Mountain, a massive earthquake trembled, and rocks crumbled.
The crimson giant's body slowly rose from the ground, reaching a height of a hundred feet, its entire body formed from viscous blood plasma and countless twisted souls.
The souls struggled and howled within the blood-soaked bodies, emitting piercing screams, each face contorted with the final pain and despair of their lives.
" The Blood Soul Sacrificial Refining Grand Array..." The Grand Elder frowned slightly. "No wonder the Withered Cloud Sect's strength has increased so dramatically in just a few years. It turns out they've used the flesh and souls of countless living beings as sacrifices to refine such an evil artifact!"
The crimson giant slowly raised its head, two eerie green Soul Fire burning in its empty eye sockets.
It opened its enormous mouth and spewed out a foul-smelling mist of blood. Wherever the mist passed, vegetation withered instantly, and even rocks were corroded and pitted.
The sect leader of the Withered Cloud Sect laughed wildly, "This is the ' Blood Soul Giant ' that my Withered Cloud Sect's elders have refined by using their own Essence Blood as a catalyst and fusing the souls of tens of thousands of cultivators!"
Although not yet at the Nebula Realm, they are not far off!
Below, Yang Shao's expression was quite solemn. "It seems his cultivation level is similar to the Grand Elder's, at the Peak of the Formless Realm."
The Formless Realm...
Mu Fusheng had inquired about it after arriving in the Soaring Realm.
Above the Creation Realm is the Dharma Aspect Realm, followed by the Formless Realm, the Nebula Realm, and the Star Vein Realm, as mentioned by their master.
At this moment.
As soon as he finished speaking, the crimson giant punched the disciple of the Supervisory Sacred Hall in the air.
The force of the punch carried a bloodthirsty aura, causing the space around it to distort slightly.
"Retreat!" the Grand Elder shouted, and with a wave of his sleeve, a golden barrier unfolded, blocking the disciples.
boom--!
The crimson fist slammed into the golden barrier, unleashing a deafening roar. The barrier trembled violently, and cracks appeared on its surface.
Ye Qiubai and the others immediately dispersed!
The Grand Elder, sensing this power, also wore a solemn expression. "This evil creature's level is already infinitely close to the Nebula Realm."
The Old Daoist Qingcheng stroked his beard as he watched this scene, his pupils filled with coldness. "Forged from the souls Essence Blood of countless cultivators, not to mention the level of this evil creature itself, the aura of the countless wronged souls within it is enough to make even an ordinary cultivator at the Formless Realm State of Mind unstable."
The Grand Elder looked at the old Daoist Old Daoist Qingcheng and cupped his hands, saying, "Then I'll have to trouble Qingcheng Temple Master to take action."
The Old Daoist Qingcheng glanced at the Grand Elder.
Now you know to call him Abbot?
The Old Daoist Qingcheng stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the blood-red giant.
The Withered Cloud Sect looked slightly tense.
The Daoist priests of Mount Qingcheng take such fortuitous opportunity very lightly, so few people have ever seen them make a move.
Not to mention the even more mysterious Qingcheng Temple Master.
only.
No one can refute the claim that Mount Qingcheng is a top-tier power in the Soaring Realm.
So, what is the strength of this Qingcheng Temple Master?
Try it and you'll see.
Since not resisting is a dead end anyway, they're doomed anyway.
Thinking of this, Withered Cloud Sect waved his hand.
The seven elders of the Withered Cloud Sect controlled the crimson giant and punched towards the Old Daoist Qingcheng!
The Old Daoist Qingcheng snorted coldly, stepped forward, and lightly flicked his whisk. "Evil spirits, how dare you act so violently?"
He muttered incantations, and the blue light on his whisk swirled, transforming into countless blue threads that formed a net-like trapping the blood-red giant.
The silk threads touched the bloody flesh, making a hissing sound, and actually burned holes in the sticky flesh.
The crimson giant roared in agony, wildly flailing its arms in an attempt to sever the blue threads. However, the Old Daoist Qingcheng possessed unparalleled skill; though the threads were thin, they were exceptionally strong, tightening their grip even more with each twist.
" Old Daoist Qingcheng, your Celestial Master Demon-Binding Instruction is indeed remarkable, but with this technique alone, it is not enough to trap my Blood Soul Giant!" The Withered Cloud Sect formed hand seals, his blood-red robe billowing.
Below, in the Withered Cloud Mountain, seven beams of blood-red light shot into the sky; these were the seven elders of the Withered Cloud Sect. They sat cross-legged in seven different positions, each slashing their wrists, their blood gushing out like a spring into the evil array that had already been set up on the ground.
"With my blood, I summon your soul back!"
"With my soul, I shall be immortal!"
The seven elders chanted evil incantations in unison, their bodies visibly withering away, while the blood giant's body grew increasingly solid. The struggling souls seemed to be infused with new power, their wails becoming even more piercing.
The crimson giant shuddered violently, snapping several of the blue threads in half!
The Grand Elder's expression suddenly changed.
The old Daoist Old Daoist Qingcheng smiled.
The Withered Cloud Sect frowned slightly. "Are you mocking me?"
The Old Daoist Qingcheng shook his head, stroked his beard, and smiled, "This technique is definitely not something you can cultivate. At the very least, we can draw one conclusion: a powerful Evil Cultivator is using your Withered Cloud Sect to hide himself and cultivate Evil Method."
The expression on the face of the Withered Cloud Sect suddenly changed.
"It seems I was right," the Old Daoist Qingcheng shouted. "Come out, or let me drag you out myself."
The Grand Elder was also surrounded by Holy Qi.
With the Holy Court as his backing and being the Grand Elder Supervisory Sacred Hall, he naturally had the right to breathe.
"As expected of the head of the Celestial Master Dao of Mount Qingcheng!"
At this moment.
A dark red aura swept in from the depths of Withered Cloud Mountain!
Below.
Seeing this, Yang Shao roared, "Everyone, form a defensive formation!"
The coverage of this dark red aura was too extensive.
If they get involved, given their strength, they will likely suffer enormous losses.
snort!
The Old Daoist Qingcheng gave a cold snort and waved his whisk.
Countless strands of black hair danced wildly in mid-air!
Vast Righteous Qi emanated from his dark hair, forming overlapping waves that surged toward the dark red aura!
The two auras collided, scorching in mid-air, causing space to twist and release dark red lightning!
only.
Vast Righteous Qi naturally restrains such evil things, and the dark red aura was quickly dispelled.
One of the young men, who appeared to be extremely alluring and handsome, appeared in mid-air.
However, the man's face had an unnatural paleness.
"You know who I am..." The handsome man was about to say something.
The old Daoist Old Daoist Qingcheng sneered, "I don't care who you are!"
The moment she finished speaking, she took a step and appeared directly in front of the handsome man, waving her whisk and simultaneously clasping her hands together.
His Vast Righteous Qi swept directly over the handsome man.
There wasn't a single wasted word.
The handsome man's brows furrowed with anger as he tried to defend himself, but no matter how he attacked or resisted, he was firmly suppressed by this Vast Righteous Qi!
Immediately, the handsome man looked down at the Withered Cloud Sect and roared, "What are you standing there for! Come and help me!"
Upon hearing this, the Withered Cloud Sect did not hesitate and immediately flew up to join the handsome man in dealing with the attack from the Old Daoist Qingcheng.
But how will the Crimson Giants manage that?
The Grand Elder stared at the crimson giant with a grave expression. To be honest, it would likely require a considerable price to pay to subdue this giant...
Moreover, the Grand Elder is also attempting to break through to the Nebula Realm...
If one suffers a severe injury at this point, damaging one's very essence, then the possibility of breaking through...
But just as the Grand Elder was pondering...
A figure suddenly appeared beside the Grand Elder, who was taken aback.
Below, Yang Shao and Tao Yi were also taken aback.
Ye Qiubai and the others shook their heads with smiles, "As expected... Junior Brother Ning usually doesn't make a move, but when he does, he always fights against people of extremely high level."
In plain language.
Only play high-level matches!
Ning Chenxin said calmly, "Senior, I can suppress him temporarily. You just need to cooperate with me when the time comes."
