That old bastard Xin Hai shouldn't have attacked Han Yan'er.
What real coffin, what Blood Spirit —once Xin Hai makes a move against Han Yan'er or Hua Youyue, none of these things matter anymore.
Yang Zhen dared not gamble; who knew if the blood streaks on Xin Hai's body would disappear after destroying the Blood Spirit?
If she hadn't disappeared, given Han Yan'er's current strength and level, facing Xin Hai would only mean certain death.
Yang Zhen couldn't imagine what he would become after Han Yan'er died, so... it would be better for Xin Hai to die.
boom!
A terrifying shockwave erupted, and Yang Zhen seemed to be engulfed in flames. He vanished amidst a terrifying hum of energy, leaving behind only a terrifying wave of True Essence fire that roared in mid-air.
Everyone was startled; no one had expected Yang Zhen to unleash such terrifying speed—it was simply unbelievable.
That's why, when the Heavenly Venerable Five Wheels and the Heavenly Venerable Shangwu tried to warn each other, it was too late, and their expressions immediately turned ugly.
Xin Hai laughed maniacally, his composure gone, replaced by a calculating madness. Staring at Yang Zhen's shifting figure, he said, "Boy, no matter how cunning you are, you still have too many worries. Someone like you, despite your many tricks and incredible luck, is just a troublesome kid who will ultimately die because of his indecisiveness."
Upon hearing Xin Hai's words, everyone tensed up and exclaimed in unison, " Yang Zhen, be careful!"
Han Yan'er stood in mid-air, staring blankly at Yang Zhen rushing towards her, her eyes filled with astonishment.
Amidst this astonishment, there was also a hint of inexplicable emotion; her eyes flickered as she gave Yang Zhen a deep look.
Clearly, Han Yan'er never expected that Yang Zhen would be so reckless for her sake, and without the slightest hesitation. Seeing that he could destroy the Blood Spirit with a simple wave of his hand, he still decisively turned back.
But returning at this time is even more dangerous. Only those who have experienced it firsthand can understand the terror of these blood threads. Once these blood threads attach to your body, it's as if all your Qi and Blood have been drained away. You can't use any power and can only watch helplessly as you are bound in mid-air.
It's a very strange power, an existence that's simply unsolvable.
Both the Heavenly Venerable Five Wheels and the Heavenly Venerable Shangwu have lived for tens of thousands of years. Even such powerful beings could not break free from these blood threads and could only wait for their deaths. How much less could Yang Zhen?
Yang Zhen's understanding of the power of heaven and earth was still limited to the Cultivation World. Compared to the Heavenly Venerable Five Wheels and the Heavenly Venerable Shangwu, he was slightly inferior. How could he know what these blood streaks were?
In fact, Yang Zhen had never even heard of the Great Saint Blood Crow, let alone such blood streaks.
But so what?
Anyone who dares to lay a hand on Han Yan'er, let alone Xin Hai, even if the Great Saint Blood Crow himself came, would die!
boom--!
Suddenly, the Great Deficiency Sword in Yang Zhen's hand burst into flames of billowing Wu Guang, surging towards the blood-red threads that filled the sky like a tidal wave.
Xin Hai laughed heartily, looking at Yang Zhen with a mocking expression, and said, "Boy, let this old man see what kind of power exists within you that makes you so strangely almost demonic."
As Xin Hai finished speaking, with a wave of his hand, a terrifying sea of blood surged towards Yang Zhen, bursting in mid-air and transforming into a blood net that blotted out the sky, raining down on Yang Zhen.
" Yang Zhen!"
Han Yan'er's expression changed drastically, as did Hua Youyue's. The Moon Shadow Sword in their hands emitted a series of humming sounds, and the entire world seemed to grow colder.
Feng Wuya and the others had no time to spare; they were all taken aback by what they saw.
A single thread of blood is terrifying enough, let alone such a large web of blood?
Xin Hai really thought highly of Yang Zhen, treating him like this shocked everyone present, whose expressions were also somewhat strange and puzzled.
However, the next moment, everyone finally understood why Xin Hai valued Yang Zhen so much.
Faced with the overwhelming blood net, Yang Zhen didn't even look up. Suddenly, a fierce wave of fire ignited on his body. The eerie white flames seemed to come from the Nine Nether Purgatory, and the whole world became gloomy.
Buzz--!
A buzzing sound came, and Yang Zhen squinted at Xin Hai. Just as the blood net was about to fall on him, the eerie white flames around him suddenly boiled, and mysterious and complex flame patterns appeared. The surrounding world instantly froze.
Netherworld Karmic Fire!
The Desolate Heaven True Rune!
Just how terrifying are the Desolate Heaven True Rune woven from Netherworld Karmic Fire?
As the endless web of blood fell on Yang Zhen, it sizzled and emitted a nauseating, burnt smell, causing everyone's expressions to become incredibly varied.
"Impossible! What kind of power is this? Companion Heavenly Fire? Heaven and Earth True Runes? You actually possess so many supreme treasures of heaven and earth?"
Xin Hai's face flickered with surprise and uncertainty. Even Han Yan'er couldn't control herself anymore, or rather, couldn't withstand the terrifying backlash of the power, and released all three people she had been holding.
After escaping her predicament, Han Yan'er didn't dare to delay and rushed towards Hua Youyue.
The Heavenly Venerable Five Wheels and the Heavenly Venerable Shangwu exchanged a glance and then retreated to the side of Feng Wuya and the others.
Terrifying waves of fire and countless patterns roared wildly around Yang Zhen Yang Zhen, yet the blood-red net that blotted out the sky could not harm him in the slightest.
Seeing Han Yan'er freed, Yang Zhen revealed a playful smile, staring at Xin Hai and saying, "In this world, there is no power that cannot be solved, just as you can never understand all the powers in the world. Some things are not as simple as you think. Do you think your brain is full of bubbles if you want to seize the power of the Great Saint?"
Yang Zhen, who was rushing towards Xin Hai, suddenly stopped in mid-air after saying these words, and looked at Xin Hai in mid-air with a leisurely air.
At this moment, Yang Zhen was engulfed in raging flames. The Netherworld Karmic Fire was perfect for dealing with these messy things.
With the addition of the Desolate Heaven True Rune, Yang Zhen can almost be considered the nemesis of this evil power.
Of course, this is on the premise that Yang Zhen's cultivation level is not too different from this power. Just as Yang Zhen said, there is no power in this world that cannot be solved.
If the evil forces are powerful enough, even if Yang Zhen possesses the Netherworld Karmic Fire and the Desolate Heaven True Rune, he will still perish and his cultivation will be extinguished.
Clearly, Xin Hai understood this principle as well. Seeing Yang Zhen stop, he laughed heartily and said, "Kid, you're quite interesting. I didn't expect that despite your low cultivation level, your understanding of power would be so profound. Even better! After I absorb your Qi and Blood, I'll see just how many heavenly treasures you possess!"
Yang Zhen didn't answer Xin Hai's question. Instead, he looked at Xin Hai with a strange expression and muttered to himself, "One, two, three..."
"What one, two, three?" Xin Hai looked puzzled for a moment, then his expression suddenly changed drastically. He roared and was about to charge at Yang Zhen, but it was too late.
Yang Zhen stomped heavily on the ground, and a dragon immediately rushed towards Blood Spirit.
Xin Hai let out a strange cry, but before he could finish, he suddenly convulsed as if he had been pulled away. His face turned bright red, then instantly turned deathly pale.
Yang Zhen walked leisurely towards Hua Youyue and Han Yan'er, looking at Xin Hai and muttering to himself, "I told you, if you want to seize the Great Saint's power in the Holy Tomb, are you out of your mind?"
boom--!
The entire Holy Tomb suddenly erupted, and Xin Hai's body almost instantly became noticeably thinner.
