Chapter 91 - Sudden Change in the Mystic Realm
Within the Spirit Essence Realm, green water flowed through the entire space.
Pythons slithered about, and they looked coldly toward the white-robed male who was slowly walking over.
A green mist permeated through the air. This mist was highly toxic and could kill silently and formlessly.
Xuanyuan Cheng walked with his sword in hand, and without exception, all the pythons which leaped at him were diced into bits.
He was shrouded in a sphere of white air which blocked out the highly toxic mist.
“The source of the poisonous mist… is in this area.”
He raised his head and saw a gigantic figure slowly appear.
This figure was one hundred feet tall and exuded an extremely powerful aura. On its gigantic body, there were nine hideous snake heads.
They hissed and regarded Xuanyuan Cheng coldly.
An astonishing aura burst out from Xuanyuan Cheng’s body.
Brandishing his sword, he leaped fearlessly toward the nine-headed monstrosity!
…
The Soul Separation Realm was a stretch of lush green grasslands.
The air here was pure and fresh, and the vital energy flowed rich and dense. Gusts of gentle wind blew over, making one feel relaxed and at ease.
Once Earth Immortal Yue Ying and Earth Immortal Ming Yuan entered, they saw a body lying abruptly on the grasslands.
Resting on the grasslands was a corpse of a black dragon which spanned over three hundred feet in length. It was dry and shriveled, and there were numerous wicked gashes on its back.
Although it was already dead, the remnants of an astonishing might still emanated from it.
“This black dragon has been sucked dry of its blood essence. This was clearly done by the Blood Tribe.”
As Earth Immortal Yue Ying gazed at the dragon, bursts of golden symbols leaped from her book and melted into the corpse.
Through the analysis of these golden symbols, she was able to sense the remnant energy within the dragon corpse.
Finishing this analysis, she garnered a rough idea of the enemy’s power.
“This dragon was attacked by three enemies. Two were Blood Gods with a rank of around the Soul Formation Intermediate Stage.
“The other was probably the Demon Emperor that An Lin and the others spoke of.
“However, his powers seem a little strange. It doesn’t really seem like he’s transitioning into a member of the Blood Tribe…”
“Regardless of whether the Demon Emperor is transitioning, all we need to do is slaughter him,” Earth Immortal Ming Yuan chuckled softly. “Let’s get a move on, we can’t let them continue analyzing and destroying the spell formation.”
Earth Immortal Yue Ying nodded. Both she and Earth Immortal Ming Yuan were cultivators of the Soul Formation Final Stage. Against those three enemies, it could be said that they would face no pressure.
Then, the two of them walked toward the glowing door which led to the Convergence Realm…
…
Within the White Bone Realm.
The glowing door gradually became dim and gloomy.
It wasn’t because the white glow had softened, rather, it was because a streak of darkness was slowly swallowing this light.
Eventually, the passage became pitch-black.
Thump, thump…
A thumping sound akin to a heartbeat came from within the passageway.
This thumping became louder and louder, and it was as if it were tearing away at a final barrier.
“Xiaolan… do you know any way to escape from this mystic realm?”
This thumping noise made An Lin’s flesh crawl, and his heart started beating faster.
Xu Xiaolan shook her head. Beads of sweat rolled down her forehead, and she was also feeling extremely terrified as she glanced toward the pitch-black passageway.
A frightening aura seeped through the door into the White Bone Realm, causing their breathing to become difficult and labored.
The original plan was for Earth Immortal Yue Ying and Earth Immortal Ming Yuan to clear out the enemies in the Convergence Realm. When that was done, they would notify An Lin and the others, thereby signaling it was safe for them to enter.
However, the situation right now was clearly not right!
Crack…
A crack appeared in the gigantic door. Then, it spread outwards like a spiderweb.
A pair of pale and smooth hands suddenly stabbed through the door and ripped outwards!
Boom!
The entire space they were in started trembling. The door was ripped open just like that.
Forming into hurricanes, the devastating spatial turbulence whipped around the surroundings.
Anything touched by this turbulence was obliterated, vanishing from the world.
Dodging this violent burst of spatial turbulence, An Lin and Xu Xiaolan retreated continuously.
A female dressed in black entered through the shattered door, and her small pale foot stepped into the bone-strewn realm.
Once she appeared, the spatial turbulence started to die down. Even the gigantic door started to close off.
This was a beautiful female, and her hair flowed behind her like silk strands. There was even a pair of black wings folded behind her.
Black wings?!
Seeing this, An Lin’s eyes widened. Could it be that this female was from the Black Wing Tribe?
The black-clothed female also became aware of their presence.
When they glanced at each other, it felt as if her pitch-black and intense eyes were going to suck An Lin’s soul in.
With just a single glance, a feeling of terror gripped at An Lin and Xu Xiaolan’s hearts. They became so debilitated that they could barely stand up straight.
She’s too powerful!
Under her glance, An Lin felt utterly unable to resist. It was as if he were facing an endless abyss.
The female in black didn’t pay any heed to them, continuing to look around and shifting her gaze away as if they were no more than dirt.
A blood-red nail floated in the air beside her, emitting a strange red glow.
“Wrong place…
“Realm Piercing Nail, continue!”
Following this chilly command, the blood-red nail started to quiver. Immediately afterward, it pierced toward the void.
Boom!
The void started to shatter, and a pitch-black tunnel appeared.
The bone-strewn land started to tremor. This was already beyond simply tearing apart the void…
It was clear that this spell formation had also been impacted greatly!
Without glancing back, the female turned around and walked into the pitch-black tunnel.
After she entered, the tunnel slowly started to disappear.
Eventually, there was only silence.
“She left just like that?”
An Lin was in disbelief. He stood perplexed, gazing at where the tunnel had been.
“Maybe she simply sees us as harmless ants,” Xu Xiaolan laughed bitterly.
An Lin finally came to his senses at this moment. “A member of the Black Wing Tribe has come over, and she’s extremely powerful at that,” he said urgently. “Her target is most likely the Evil-Slaying Sword. We must inform Teacher Yue Ying as soon as possible!”
“How can we inform her? This spirit seal can only be activated by Teacher Yue Ying.
“Also, this spirit seal can only send two types of signals, burning and shining.
“Once the spirit seal burns, it signifies that we’ve entered the Convergence Realm. Now, however…”
There was a look of helplessness on Xu Xiaolan’s face as she held the yellow spirit seal.
Hearing this, An Lin also sighed.
He took his phone out and found that there was no signal. He couldn’t help but shake his head, there really was nothing they could do.
“I’ve also realized another problem…” An Lin gestured around at the empty White Bone Realm. “It seems like the female shattered the passage which leads to the Convergence Realm. Moreover, Teacher Yue Ying can’t enter here due to rank restrictions. Are we going to be stuck here forever?”
Xu Xiaolan blinked her beautiful eyes as she realized the severity of this problem.
However, she couldn’t come up with any ideas either, and could only sit down in defeat, an anxious look on her face.
…
In the Spirit Essence Realm.
The last head of the nine-headed monstrosity was sliced off by a white sword projection, and its humongous body crashed onto the floor.
Xuanyuan Cheng flicked his sword, ridding it of the monster’s blood.
There was a look of exhaustion on his face, but luckily he wasn’t injured.
As the nine-headed monstrosity collapsed, the toxic mist permeating through the air also started to slowly dissipate and vanish. A pure white door materialized.
“Uh-huh, all I have to do is wait for the spirit seal to burn. Then, I can enter.” Xuanyuan Cheng thought aloud as he looked at the spirit seal in his hand.
After a while, the spirit seal in his hand suddenly shone brilliantly.
“Huh? What does it mean if the spirit seal shines? We didn’t discuss this beforehand.”
Xuanyuan Cheng was stumped as he looked at the spirit seal.
Could it be that Teacher Yue Ying sent the wrong signal? Did she actually want the spirit seal to burn?
Glancing at the glowing white door, Xuanyuan Cheng became hesitant.
To enter, or not to enter?
