Chapter 406

"Move!" the middle-aged man whispered with a solemn expression. He pinched a spell with both hands, and the ghost head in front of him let out a whistle, baring its full mouth of fangs as it viciously pounced toward Ancestor Ji Yin.

At the same time, the magic tools and magic treasures of Han Li and the others also shot out simultaneously, spraying toward the traitors of the Miaoyin Sect on the opposite side like a torrential downpour.

Elder Zhao and the others beside Ancestor Ji Yin naturally would not sit idly by and wait for death; they likewise shot out rays of light of various colors to meet them.

For a time, various magic tools and magic treasures became intertwined.

Ancestor Ji Yin cast a faint glance at this scene, then looked at the ghost head flying toward him, a few traces of a cold sneer appearing at the corners of his mouth as the two black fireballs in his hands left his grasp.

The fireballs, once released, deformed in mid-air, turning into two ink-colored snakes as thick as a thumb. With a "whoosh," they drilled into the ghost head's large mouth like arrows.

The middle-aged man's expression changed instantly, and he secretly cried out that it was bad.

The ghost head indeed stopped, and its skull began to swell, bursting with a "bang" in the blink of an eye, splashing countless black demonic flames from within.

Seeing this scene, the middle-aged man's face turned somewhat pale, but he immediately took a deep breath, revealing a trace of determination.

He slapped the back of his head hard with his hand, and a bead the size of a thumb slowly squeezed out from between his brows; it was small, exquisite, pure white, and crystalline, emitting wisps of white, hazy cold air.

"Brother Chi, this old demon's Heavenly Capital Corpse Fire can only be restrained by a magic treasure of extreme yin and cold. I will first use this 'Cold Dawn Bead' to attract his attention, and then you find an opportunity to use the Kui Water Demonic Art to trap the old demon; only then will we have some chance of winning." Once the bead flew out, the middle-aged man immediately spoke with a solemn expression, secretly transmitting his voice to the Chi Huo Old Monster in the air.

A muffled "hmm" sound came from the black clouds, which lifted the middle-aged man's spirits.

He no longer hesitated and opened his mouth wide, spraying out a ball of blood mist that enveloped the bead within it.

Instantly, the bead spun rapidly, and all the blood mist was sucked clean. Then, after the white air contracted and expanded, it turned into a huge silver ball a zhang in diameter, dazzling and eye-catching—truly astonishing!

"Old demon, let me show you the power of the Cold Dawn Bead refined from deep-sea mysterious crystals!" The middle-aged man looked toward Ancestor Ji Yin and said through gritted teeth, his face appearing extremely ferocious.

Afterward, he pointed his hand at the Cold Dawn Bead and spat out a "Swift" spell command.

After the silver light ball swayed a few times, a buzzing, clear ringing sound immediately rang out, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a white python as thick as a bowl, viciously pouncing toward Ancestor Ji Yin.

"Oh?" Ancestor Ji Yin revealed a slight look of surprise!

But then his expression returned to normal, and he gave a disdainful laugh, his shoulders shaking slightly as seven or eight strands of black energy as thick as a bowl shot out from behind him.

These strands of black energy were extremely agile; after rolling in the air, they likewise turned into several wolf-shaped demonic beasts of various appearances, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws as they shot toward the white python.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man's brows stood straight up, and he shouted loudly, his ten fingers flicking non-stop as spell commands of various colors struck the white python one after another.

Instantly, the python's eyes flashed with green light, and it coiled its body, spraying out a large, thick sheet of white cold mist silently. It instantly washed away the wolf-shaped demonic beasts on the opposite side without a trace, and without stopping, it continued to surge madly toward Ancestor Ji Yin.

Only then did Ancestor Ji Yin truly reveal a look of surprise, but he calmly drew a light line in front of him with one hand. With a "puchi" sound, a thick black light wall rose from the ground, blocking those white cold mists outside.

"Now, Brother Chi, act quickly!" Seeing that the white cold mist had completely attracted Ancestor Ji Yin's attention for the moment, the middle-aged man hurriedly transmitted his voice secretly to the Chi Huo Old Monster in the air.

"Good!" The Chi Huo Old Monster in the black clouds responded without the slightest hesitation.

Afterward, a roaring sound erupted above the middle-aged man's head; the black clouds rapidly expanded by a circle, began to churn and dance wildly, and then fell downward with lightning speed.

"Chi Huo Old Monster, you..." After the middle-aged man let out a cry of horror, he was enveloped within the endless black clouds that spanned over a hundred zhang.

At this moment, Ancestor Ji Yin let out a series of "cackle" monster laughs. A huge black hand shot out from the white, hazy cold air, reaching the front of the white python in an instant. He grabbed it in his hand and squeezed hard, and instantly the white python's form dissipated into clouds and mist, returning to the bead's original form.

It was just that it kept flickering desperately in the large hand, releasing cold air, seemingly unwilling to submit.

At the same time, amidst the roaring of thunder and fire, the middle-aged man's roar of shock and anger came through.

"Old demon, Chi Huo! You two are in cahoots; you were actually on the same side!" His voice was filled with unspeakable regret and resentment.

"Hmph! It's just that you are too stupid. You go ahead and play with Chi Huo for a while! I will send the others away first, and then I will come back to discuss our master-disciple relationship with you!" As these faint words finished, the black hand's radiance converged, revealing Ancestor Ji Yin's figure.

He looked coldly at the black clouds, then glanced at the Cold Dawn Bead in his hand, and without hesitation, he opened his mouth and sprayed a faint black energy that wrapped the bead within it.

The bead's radiance was immediately tarnished and lost, becoming dim.

Seeing this scene, a look of self-satisfaction appeared on Ancestor Ji Yin's cold face. Then, he flipped his palm, and the bead disappeared without a trace.

From the Chi Huo Old Monster's sudden betrayal to Ancestor Ji Yin taking the Cold Dawn Bead, it was a long story but only took the blink of an eye, yet it had already left the previously dominant Elder Zhao and the others dumbfounded.

In Fairy Zi Ling's beautiful eyes, an even more unbelievable look appeared!

But most people immediately realized something. After exchanging glances, they immediately retracted the magic treasures that were pressing Elder Zhao and the others until they couldn't catch their breath, and silently scattered and fled in all directions.

None of them were fools; in the current situation, resisting head-on would certainly mean death without a whole corpse.

If they flew away in all directions, everyone would have to rely on their own fate!

Among them, the fastest to flee were naturally the few Core Formation cultivators.

But what was surprising was that Fairy Zi Ling, Madam Fan, and Zhuo Zhuo Ruting—the three female cultivators—did not know what secret technique they had used; the three of them actually drove a stone tablet-like magic tool together, turning it into a three-colored radiance, and their speed was not the least bit inferior to those Core Formation cultivators.

However, if one had to say who was the fastest, it was naturally Han Li and Qu Hun, who had long since prepared to run away.

Almost at the same time the Chi Huo Old Monster backstabbed the middle-aged man, Han Li and Qu Hun retracted their magic treasures and, without a word, turned into yellow and green long rainbows, fleeing a step ahead.

When the other cultivators finally reacted and flew up, Han Li had already flown thirty or forty zhang away with a dark face, and he looked back at the situation behind him.

The scene that met his eyes left Han Li feeling greatly astonished!!

The Core Formation cultivators of the Yinsha Sect had not all fled. The four cultivators who appeared with the middle-aged man instead joined forces to attack the Chi Huo Old Monster and Ancestor Ji Yin. Their faces revealed a chilling, crazy expression, completely in a desperate state of only attacking and not defending.

And those two demonic heads were indeed caught in a flurry of activity for a moment and were unable to pull themselves away.

Seeing this, Han Li felt great joy in his heart!

"Good! Good! I didn't expect these people to all be Evil Core clones. Then this ancestor will fulfill your wishes!"

But this attack seemed to have truly angered Ancestor Ji Yin. His voice of laughing in extreme anger suddenly rang out, and then one of the four immediately let out a miserable scream. Afterward, black flames burned fiercely on his body, and in the blink of an eye, he turned into nothingness.

Han Li felt a chill in his heart and dared not look any longer. He hurriedly turned back and frantically drove the Green Brilliance Sword.

However, he still couldn't help but look at Qu Hun with a strange gaze.

Hearing words like "Evil Core" and "clone," the hazy window paper in his heart was finally completely pierced.

He had originally suspected that the "Mysterious Yin Manual" practiced by Wu Chou had a connection to the "Mysterious Yin Scripture" mentioned in the jade slip obtained from the Yue Emperor.

Now that he heard Ancestor Ji Yin say words like "Evil Core" and "clone," he finally confirmed his guess.

As for the two being in Tiannan and the Chaotic Star Sea, he estimated that they were connected through the ancient teleportation array, and most likely it was the same one he had come through.

Thinking about it now, the five-colored skeletons beside the ancient teleportation array really had big problems!

In addition, although he had long felt that things were not right, the fact that Ancestor Chi Huo would betray them at the last moment was truly unexpected.

It resulted in his first move after forming his Core being just as pathetic as when he was in the Foundation Establishment stage. He could only flee for his life again.

This made Han Li feel bitter in his heart, truly depressed!

But he felt that this scene was so similar to the situation that occurred when hunting the "Infant Carp Beast."

The two opposing sides, who should have been fighting fiercely, suddenly saw one side change their face and betray them, actually slaughtering their companions.

It made him unable to help but recall that plaque carved with a ferocious ghost head.

He felt that everything seemed to have some connection to this!

But Han Li could only think this far for now, because two more miserable screams came faintly from behind, which made his heart tighten.

Whether he could escape now could only be pinned on Ancestor Ji Yin being too confident and truly not having set up any backup plans.
