In the void, colorful light flickered faintly.
Amidst that dark purple, swirling demonic light, Yuandu's figure reappeared.
However, compared to before, he was now in a much worse state.
In just a few breaths, he had been caught up and killed by Chen Shuangbai, who was holding the [ Foot-Long Silk ], three or four times, although he managed to escape each time using his Void Escape Divine Ability and other life-saving Divine Ability.
But each time he was killed, his aura diminished, and the sword wounds he had managed to suppress began to show signs of recurring.
Yuandu's Divine Ability are among the best in the country.
Even if it were Hentian, who had reached the Nascent Soul Late Stage hundreds of years earlier than him, while he couldn't say for sure he could defeat this Old Devil, at least... at least he could hold his own.
Especially now, having abandoned the Transformation Sect's mountain gate and gone through countless hardships to obtain the Night Devil Beast's body, he has hidden in the void and secretly refined some of its divine essence.
He was even more confident that he could at least go toe-to-toe with Hentian.
But now things have taken a turn for the worse... Hentian hasn't even faced off yet, but instead he's facing off against Chen Shuangbai Far-Reaching Luminous Sword Immortal who only recently advanced to the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
I originally thought that even if it wasn't a 50/50 match, I could at least have the upper hand...
But now things are different...
As Yuandu was pondering this, a crimson comet silently fell from the sky, leaving a long, swaying tail of flame, and landed right in front of him in an instant.
Dark purple demonic light flashed around him, and he summoned the skull with a red bead in its mouth, colliding it with the crimson comet...
clang!
A violent roar resounded as the terrifying comet crashed down, colliding with the red light emanating from the skull. The red light then retreated steadily, only to be gently touched by a crimson sword blade emerging from the comet.
Yuandu heard a muffled thud from his Law Treasure, and then the terrifying power contained in the rolling black snow light on the crimson sword blade indirectly affected him through the magic weapon in that instant.
Even though he was prepared, the Devil Lord was still shaken back several steps by the terrifying power transmitted through the Law Treasure. The terrifying power also landed on his Divine Ability and then quickly dissipated, causing much of the dark purple demonic light around him to dissipate.
Chen Shuangbai gave him no chance to catch his breath.
The [ Foot-Long Silk ] sword, which had transformed into the Moon Comet Ferocious Sword, made a light slash in the void, leaving a trail of crimson-black sword marks. A point of crimson light flashed on the tip of the sword, then transformed into intersecting crimson lights, rushing towards Yuandu.
A hint of ferocity flashed in Devil Lord Yuandu's eyes. He retreated a considerable distance in an eerie manner, then formed a hand seal with his right hand and chanted an obscure incantation.
then.
In this silent void, for a fleeting moment a low chanting sound rang out, like the whispers of ghosts and foxes in the night, or the conversation of the gods of the underworld, carrying a ghostly aura and a chilling sense of eeriness.
Chen Shuangbai immediately became alert, activated her divine eye, and her Divine Ability responded automatically, but the next moment...
The world was plunged into darkness.
Divine Ability?
no!
Chen Shuangbai immediately realized that she could no longer see anything but darkness. She raised her hand to touch her eyes and found only emptiness; her eyeballs had been removed.
Was it that Old Devil demon's curse from earlier?
A strange red light burst forth, and the eerie incantation from Devil Lord Yuandu's mouth poured out continuously. At the same time, he raised the skull in his hand, which held a red bead in its mouth. The skull's eyes were bloodshot, and the red bead shone brightly. Taking advantage of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he crashed straight into the arms of Far-Reaching Luminous Sword Immortal.
Yuandu's Law Treasure is named the [ Soul-Seizing, Spirit-Invading, Primordial-Storing Urn ].
Although it is a skeleton, it is actually refined by Divine Ability and has been tempered with his own Essence Blood and soul for hundreds of years. It has long been connected with his mind and Qi and Blood.
The most insidious aspect of this bead is that once it strikes a cultivator's physical body, it will devour their soul and plunder their vital energy. Those struck by it will suffer severe damage to their cultivation or even complete annihilation of their soul. It is truly extremely insidious.
"My lord!"
While maintaining the Purple Sun Heavenly Fire to suppress the Ten Thousand Ghost Mandala Great Barrier, Haoming Boy also had to maintain the wondrous formation created by the twelve Purple-Gold Heavenly Pillar, which made him a step too late in his attack.
The eerie red light passed through his body, but most of its power was blocked by the [ Swaying Moon Sunken Cold Treasure Mirror ]. The rest of it struck the sword immortal's body solidly.
The extremely cold power burrowed into the body like a venomous snake, traveling along the meridians and causing the flow of Law Power to become sluggish wherever it passed.
He grunted, his body swayed slightly, but he managed to steady himself and didn't take a single step back.
Points of emerald light appeared out of thin air, slowly floating around the sword immortal. Faintly visible were the Musheng, and silver light covered the ground. A jade-like porcelain bottle slowly tilted out, and dewdrops as bright as full moons fell on his body.
The darkness before her eyes receded rapidly, and her eyes grew back. Chen Shuangbai looked down at the wound between her chest and abdomen, and could clearly feel her vital energy being constantly plundered.
Beneath the shimmering azure light, the red glow clinging to it was being driven away little by little, and the waning aura was rapidly rising again.
[ Dew-Drinking Radiance ].
The second red light had already landed in front of him, and then the sword immortal slowly raised the Moon Comet Fierce Sword in his hand. The comet shone brightly, and the crimson-black sword mark effortlessly split the red light in the middle, sending it falling into the void behind him.
Their eyes met again, and in Yuandu's eyes, the crisscrossing demonic patterns gradually revealed a more intense dark purple demonic light, with black light slowly merging into them. Faintly, a demonic statue surrounded by two ghosts appeared behind him.
The golem was extremely terrifying.
The ghost was entirely bluish-black, shaped like Kugu, with eerie green flames burning in its eye sockets.
The other ghost was entirely crimson, like blood, with bulging muscles, protruding fangs, and dripping saliva that corroded the void with a hissing sound.
The two ghosts intertwined, forming a twisted ring that protected Devil Lord Yuandu in the center.
Their inhuman, eerie gazes locked onto Chen Shuangbai, emitting a sinister, low roar that shook the surrounding Purple Sun Heavenly Fire.
A comet is flashing!
A surging crimson sword light shot into the sky, surrounded by rolling black snow light. Its terrifying power caused the void to collapse wherever it passed, revealing rifts leading to the mortal world.
In an instant, they had already reached the Devil Lord lord.
Devil Lord Yuandu stood embraced by two ghosts, his hands forming a hand seal. The one ghost, which was entirely blue-black, stretched out an arm and extended its long, blue-black fingertip, gently drawing a circle in the void.
The crimson sword light, powerful enough to severely injure a Nascent Soul Late Stage cultivator, was all absorbed into this bottomless circle.
All that could be seen was the deepest darkness, like the darkest night sky, capable of containing everything.
