The Cosmic Transformation Incarnation seed to sense sothing and abruptly turned around.
Only then did it notice the earthy-yellow light emanating from the cave behind it.
The light originated from Jiang Yushan’s body, radiating an intensely familiar aura.
The Profound Kun Heavy Earth Talisman!
A flicker of surprise flashed in the Cosmic Transformation Incarnation’s eyes.
To prevent Jiang Yushan from using any hidden tricks, Ye Bing had already discarded his storage ring in the ruins, ensuring he carried nothing with him. However, neither she nor the Incarnation had anticipated that Jiang Yushan would conceal a Profound Kun Heavy Earth Talisman within his body.
The one controlling the talisman, of course, wasn’t Jiang Yushan himself, but Jiang Lanruo, who was hundreds of miles away.
At that mont, she was rapidly forming hand seals, activating the talisman.
The Cosmic Transformation Incarnation observed the earthy-yellow protective shield encircling Jiang Yushan without attempting to attack.
With its current strength, breaching the shield was impossible; only Song Wen’s true form could potentially break through it.
Nor did it flee. Instead, it stood its ground, watching as Hong Zhe’s nine Corpse Nails closed in and pierced its body.
The Cosmic Transformation Incarnation suddenly shattered, but instead of flesh and blood, only a shower of wood splinters filled the air.
"Hmm! It was just an Incarnation," Hong Zhe remarked, slightly surprised.
He didn’t dwell on it, however, and followed Jiang Lanruo into the mountain cave.
Jiang Lanruo knelt down to examine Jiang Yushan. After a thorough check, she turned to Hong Zhe.
"Elder Hong Zhe, he’s not seriously injured. His physical body and divine soul have suffered so impact, causing him to temporarily lose consciousness."
"Good," Hong Zhe replied. "Revive him first. I’ll deal with the person outside."
Jiang Lanruo nodded, flipped her hand to produce two dicinal pills, and slipped them into Jiang Yushan’s mouth. Then, placing one hand against his back, she began channeling energy to help him tabolize the pills.
anwhile, Hong Zhe strode out of the cave and gazed upward.
A pitch-black barrier, as dark as ink, completely enveloped the mountain peak where they stood. Corpse qi surged across the barrier’s surface, gradually coalescing into chains of black energy.
Hong Zhe’s face showed no trace of panic, only a hint of mockery.
"A re fifth-rank formation? You think you can trap with this? What wishful thinking!"
Nine Corpse Nails reappeared, piercing through the air in all directions.
Each nail was about a foot long, radiating a faint, chilling glow and echoing with faint wails of ghosts and howls of wolves.
Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle...
The mont the Corpse Nails struck the pitch-black barrier, it shattered instantly, dissolving into a swirling black mist that filled the sky.
However, Hong Zhe’s expression froze.
As the barrier shattered, a vast blood sea stretched out behind it, spanning thousands of miles like a crimson cloud blotting out the heavens.
Only then did Hong Zhe realize that the fifth-rank formation had rely been a smokescreen to conceal the blood sea.
"Blood Sea Seal! How could this person possess a Blood Sea Seal, a technique only core disciples of our sect can master?" Hong Zhe’s eyes widened in shock.
Even as he reeled from the revelation, the center of the blood sea erupted. A blood pillar hundreds of feet thick surged downward like a monstrous crimson serpent, lunging straight at Hong Zhe!
Hong Zhe’s pupils constricted. With a flick of his wrist, the nine Corpse Nails shot upward to intercept the blood pillar.
Despite its overwhelming force, the blood pillar proved surprisingly fragile.
The Corpse Nails, sharp as indestructible blades, tore through the blood pillar with ease, scattering crimson rain across the sky.
The Corpse Nails advanced relentlessly, clearly aiming to shatter the blood sea behind the blood pillar in one decisive strike.
Deep within the blood sea, Song Wen watched the Corpse Nails’ relentless advance, his expression icy.
"Blood Spirit Sacrifice!"
As Song Wen uttered these words, his body visibly withered at an alarming rate.
Yet his aura surged exponentially.
Simultaneously, the omnipresent blood sea slowly rged into his body, replenishing his depleted blood essence.
In the blink of an eye, his spiritual power swelled by over fifty percent.
The blood essence he had sacrificed now equaled his entire original reserve.
But he didn’t stop there. He continued to activate the Blood Spirit Sacrifice. With the Blood Sea Seal, his blood essence beca virtually inexhaustible.
His spiritual power grew increasingly formidable. Suddenly, it shattered the limits of early-stage Void Refinent, surging into mid-stage Void Refinent.
Finally, Song Wen ceased activating the Blood Spirit Sacrifice.
The spiritual power he had gained through this blood sacrifice now far surpassed his original reserves.
If he continued to enhance his power, his internal spiritual power risked spiraling out of control.
As Song Wen’s spiritual power surged, the Blood Sea Seal’s might amplified dramatically.
The churning blood waves grew even more violent, the crimson sea boiling and surging ceaselessly.
The blood pillar at the heart of the blood sea, far from being completely shattered by the Corpse Nails, gradually withstood their onslaught under Song Wen’s reinforced spiritual power, the two forces locked in a stalemate.
anwhile, the scattered blood rain slowly rose into the air, rejoining the blood sea.
Hong Zhe’s brow furrowed slightly, a hint of solemnity flashing in his eyes.
"Jiang Lanruo, take Jiang Yushan and leave. This man has so skill. I need to focus all my power to prevent the aftershocks from harming Yushan."
Hearing this from inside the cave, Jiang Lanruo imdiately channeled a surge of spiritual power, wrapping it around Jiang Yushan and propelling them out of the cave.
Yet her left hand remained pressed against Jiang Yushan’s back, continuing to channel spiritual power to aid in the dicinal pill’s refinent.
Erging from the cave, Jiang Lanruo glanced up at the blood pillar locked in combat with the Corpse Nails, a flicker of surprise crossing her eyes.
She instantly realized that Song Wen had held back during their earlier clash, deliberately letting her retreat to lure Hong Zhe here.
Rather than joining forces with Hong Zhe to face the enemy, Jiang Lanruo sped away into the distance, clearly intending to flee the area with Jiang Yushan.
"Trying to escape? Not so fast!" Song Wen sneered.
The edges of the blood sea suddenly began to flow downward, forming a crimson cage that sealed off an area spanning a thousand miles, trapping Jiang Lanruo before she could escape its reach.
Seeing this, Hong Zhe’s eyes flashed with icy fury.
"Since you seek death, this venerable one shall grant it to you. Corpse Hell Soul-Devouring Spikes!"
The nine Corpse Nails abruptly retreated, hovering above his head. They began to orbit each other in a bizarre pattern, their corpse qi rging to form chains of corpse qi runes that coalesced into a massive black conical spike.
The black spike spun relentlessly, like a towering vortex, hurtling toward the blood pillar that had violently crashed down after the Corpse Nails retreated.
Just as the two were about to collide, a figure suddenly erged from the bottom of the blood pillar.
The figure’s eyes glowed crimson, unleashing two beams of blood-red light that struck the black spike head-on.
The spike’s montum plumted, and the corpse qi rune chains within it trembled violently before shattering one by one.
Boom!
The black spike exploded.
The nine Corpse Nails were revealed, scattering haphazardly toward the ground.
