Chapter 659: The Forbidden Technique Cast Once More

The Northern Territory.

The powerhouses of the Divine Fire Alliance had long since infiltrated every region of the Northern Territory in advance.

Following the conclusion of the Heavenly Fire Immortal Gathering.

Those powerhouses of the Divine Fire Alliance lurking in the shadows moved simultaneously, launching attacks on all factions in the Northern Territory.

Excluding the regions already slaughtered by the Blood Spirit Sect, where all life had been extinguished.

All other regions were covered in blood and carnage.

The Hehuan Sect was also attacked by powerhouses of the Divine Fire Alliance.

Although Wang Jianqiang had specifically left behind guards like Xiaoxiaobai before heading to the Divine Fire Alliance.

But the Divine Fire Alliance had clearly already learned of the Hehuan Sect's strength.

There were many powerhouses invading the Hehuan Sect.

However.

Fortunately, before leaving, Wang Jianqiang had left behind the Blood Spirit Great Array Array Disk he had researched.

With the help of the Array's power, the beast guards like Xiaoxiaobai saw their strength greatly increased.

Although they were suppressed, they did not collapse quickly, but instead joined forces to hold back the enemy.

This bought sufficient time for the cultivators of the Hehuan Sect to retreat.

In order to reduce their profile.

Dong Yue chose to let the cultivators within the sect scatter and flee.

She herself, along with Mu Lingxi, Su Yutong, Wang Yu Yao, Bai Xiruo, and Yan Qingxuan, led a portion of the sect members to form a group, fleeing outward at the fastest possible speed.

Not long after.

When the group arrived at the foot of a snow-capped mountain.

They suddenly discovered that the earth was trembling violently.

The group was startled.

Subconsciously, they looked ahead.

Boom—!

Dozens of miles away, sand and stones flew as the earth suddenly split open.

A figure surrounded by five-colored light shot out from underground.

After rushing out of the ground, the figure flew straight toward the distance.

"Wang Jianqiang!"

"Senior Brother!"

The group saw that figure.

Feeling the familiar aura on the other party, they were all stunned.

The others did not know.

But Mu Lingxi, Su Yutong, Wang Yu Yao, Bai Xiruo, Dong Yue, and Yan Qingxuan were very clear about Wang Jianqiang's movements.

Had he not gone to the Central Region to infiltrate the Divine Fire Alliance?

When did he return to the Northern Territory?

Boom~

Just at this moment.

The shaking of the earth suddenly became even more violent.

The group was almost shaken off their feet and immediately regained their senses.

Following that.

The group watched in horror.

Centered on the place where Wang Jianqiang had appeared, the earth in a region of over a hundred miles suddenly shattered and collapsed.

It transformed into a bottomless, massive Abyss.

They hurriedly flew up, only then avoiding being affected and falling in.

Immediately after.

A giant hand with a diameter exceeding ten miles reached out from the center of the Abyss.

It reached out to grab Wang Jianqiang, who was flying away.

Although the giant hand's target was not the group.

The terrifying aura it emitted still made the group feel a suffocating sense of oppression.

Wherever the giant hand passed, winds rose and clouds surged, mountains and rivers collapsed, and rivers ceased to flow.

Even the space itself seemed as if it were about to be torn apart, constantly twisting and trembling.

Seeing this terrifying scene that resembled the arrival of the apocalypse.

The group all revealed expressions of horror.

"Senior Brother!"

"Wang Jianqiang."

After reacting, the six women all chased forward together.

Originally.

Wang Jianqiang had already put a distance of more than ten miles between himself and the giant hand.

But the speed of the giant hand was extremely astonishing.

It was like Instant Movement.

In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two had shortened by more than half, leaving less than fifteen hundred zhang between them.

Although the great hand had not yet arrived.

The gale stirred up as it traversed the sky had already swept over.

A strong sense of crisis welled up from within his heart.

Wang Jianqiang's expression tightened.

He hurriedly used the Battle Saint Method to manifest a golden bell, shrouding himself within it.

The next moment.

The gale submerged him.

The golden bell outside his body shattered instantly, as if it were made of paper.

His entire body was sent flying horizontally.

Even the Years Sacred Body became incredibly fragile in the face of this gale.

It was torn with a multitude of bloody gashes.

Violent power surged into his body.

His internal organs, along with his Nascent Soul, were all severely injured.

This was only because his Nascent Soul was draped in a five-colored garment, which naturally possessed powerful defensive means.

Otherwise.

His Star Puppet Divine Ability would likely have already entered a cooldown state again.

And this power, which was terrifying and impossible for him to resist, was merely the insignificant aftermath of the power attached to the great hand.

It was hard to imagine just how strong the power of the great hand itself was.

And this…

Was an attack that had been weakened by the chaotic Space Power while crossing Outside the Realm!

What level of Cultivator was that powerhouse from Outside the Realm who launched the attack?

The great hand continued to close in, and the gale became increasingly terrifying.

Under the impact of the gale, Wang Jianqiang was thrown forward in a wretched state.

The injuries on his body became increasingly severe.

Behind the great hand.

Dong Yue and the others tried their best, but not only failed to catch up.

They were instead pulled further and further away.

However, they had no intention of giving up in the slightest, still pursuing desperately.

Suddenly.

They saw the scene of Wang Jianqiang being affected by the gale, tumbling repeatedly, and blood spraying across the sky.

Their expressions changed in unison.

Dong Yue, Yan Qingxuan, Wang Yu Yao, and Su Yutong all burned their Spiritual Power, increasing their speed once more and flying forward desperately.

Even Bai Xiruo, who had the weakest strength and was trailing at the very back, followed suit and burned her Spiritual Power.

"Senior Brother!"

Mu Lingxi did not burn her Spiritual Power.

She suddenly stopped in mid-air, staring fixedly at that tumbling figure.

In her eyes.

The fresh blood spilling from the sky and the blood plasma coughed up from Wang Jianqiang's mouth seemed to have frozen.

In her eyes, there remained only Wang Jianqiang, that crimson blood, and the Covering Heaven Great Hand rapidly closing in on Wang Jianqiang.

The next moment.

A flash of madness crossed her eyes.

Her slender jade hands interlaced, and her hand seals shifted.

"Three Lives Body, emerge!"

In an instant.

Two figures stepped out from her body.

After the Three Lives Body manifested, they pinched hand seals simultaneously.

The three bodies moved in unison, their seal techniques identical.

As the hand seals shifted, the three bodies gradually merged.

Amidst a dazzling light.

The power of the three bodies fused completely.

When the light dissipated.

Mu Lingxi's appearance had already changed.

Her long, pitch-black hair was incredibly deep, as if ink were about to drip from it.

In her beautiful eyes, the whites had vanished.

They were like two deep Abysses, captivating the soul.

Clearly a physical body, yet it gave one a sense of being in a dream.

She took a step forward.

The time around her seemed to accelerate, and her figure vanished instantly.

When she appeared again, she had already crossed a distance of several dozen miles.

She had chased to within less than a thousand zhang of the Covering Heaven Great Hand.

Within her ink-black long hair, a single strand quietly turned a pale color.

Her eyes, which seemed to regard all living things with indifference and lacked the slightest trace of emotion, were fixed tightly on the Covering Heaven Great Hand ahead.

A fair and slender palm was raised, aimed at the Covering Heaven Great Hand, and pressed forward.

"Rewind!"

Following the sound of an indifferent voice.

Ahead, the Covering Heaven Great Hand, which had already closed to within less than a thousand zhang of Wang Jianqiang, instantly came to a halt.

And then.

It retreated backwards in a bizarre fashion.

It was just like a movie that had been pressed on the rewind button!

As the Covering Heaven Great Hand moved away.

The gale-force winds shrouding Wang Jianqiang rapidly weakened until they vanished completely.

He let out a long sigh of relief.

Thinking of the scene where the great hand retreated so strangely, he seemed to realize something.

He hurriedly scanned his surroundings.

Immediately after.

He saw Dong Yue, Wang Yu Yao, Yan Qingxuan, Su Yutong, and Bai Xiruo, who were chasing after him with all their might.

He also saw Mu Lingxi, who had already transformed into her Reincarnation True Body and was currently casting a Forbidden Technique.

The instant he saw Mu Lingxi.

Wang Jianqiang's pupils contracted instantly, and a look of intense fear washed over his face.
