Chapter 516

Yunhe

In an instant, heaven and earth changed color; endless corpse ghosts burst out from the sand, each actually possessing strength approaching late Nascent Soul! They shoved the fallen eyeballs back into their rotting eye sockets, their noseless nostrils gulped the fresh air of the living world, suddenly they smelled the scent of fresh flesh and blood, all the corpse ghosts became excited.

Hongchen

Huangquan Laozu

Xuanxu Daoren

In midair, the Yellow Springs Old Ancestor spread their arms wide; a pitch-black humanoid skull before their chest emitted a blinding radiance, their face flushed with intoxication, as if they were greatly enjoying the erosion of this dark aura.

Eastern Border

Yunhe did not dare to underestimate; he flipped his sword finger, and five small swords fell from midair, arranging themselves in a pentagon around Yunhe to form a Five Elements Grand Array, which combined with the All-Heaven Five Elements Returning Spirit Grand Array to maximize the divine thunder effect contained in the Five Elements Heavenly Thunder Sword—Only to see, in no time, the originally haunted realm began to roll with thunderclouds.

Nascent Soul Late Stage

A bolt of violet lightning fell into the sword formation, transforming into a ring of flashing electric arcs; whenever a corpse ghost touched it, the electric arc scorched it with a hiss, then the divine lightning fell, in an instant turning into a puff of flying ash.

Upon the opening of the Five-Qi Peacock Fan, it transformed into a five-colored peacock; only to see it proudly displaying its tail feathers, golden light shot out from each gorgeous feather's pattern, each strand of golden light carrying a subtle Geng Metal Qi.

Abyss Clan High Priest

Dao Alliance

Yunhe watched as these corpse ghosts recklessly rushed toward him, only to be blasted by divine thunder, their souls and spirits scattering, and he murmured softly.

Only saw the last corpse ghost already caught up by the emerald-green river water; the corpse ghost emitting a terrifying evil aura actually began to slowly melt, and soon became part of that river water.

"This is Fengdu Death Water! I never expected to see this legendary Fengdu Death Water in this lifetime."

The Abyss Clan High Priest muttered to himself, obviously captivated by the sight before him.

Though he spoke softly, it was still heard by Red Dust and the others; unlike the White Fox Xiao Lan, Red Dust's eyes flashed with shock, indicating he too had heard of this Fengdu Death Water.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go together!"

Only heard the Yellow Springs Old Ancestor let out a loud shout. Obviously he had long been dissatisfied with Red Dust and the others watching from the opposite shore.

Seeing this, Red Dust and the others exchanged a glance; only saw the Abyss Clan High Priest, who had always remained neutral, actually make the first move! "Summon Spirit!"

Only saw his whole body begin to emit black smoke; soon a clump of black soul flew out from his body and shot straight into the Abyss Beast's body.

The High Priest's body slumped like a pile of mud, falling straight to the ground; then the eyes of the late Nascent Soul Abyss Beast, originally crimson, began to clear, and upon close look they were exactly the same as the High Priest's eyes. Relying on the Abyss Beast's sturdy body, the High Priest charged back and forth, slamming each corpse ghost that couldn't dodge into the Fengdu Death Water, then leapt up with all his might and crashed straight into Yunhe's formation.

The original formation had already begun to become unstable under the erosion of the Fengdu Death Water.

Yunhe had already experienced the Abyss Beast's formidable physique; if he let it continue to crash into the formation, he feared that upon arriving here, a flash of divine light in his eyes would prompt him to strike first.

However, the Abyss Beast naturally possesses the ability to resist divine sense attacks, so it obviously cannot be targeted; even with the High Priest's secret method controlling it, there is only one chance. The Yellow Springs Old Ancestor, who was fully exerting himself to maintain the situation, suddenly felt uneasy, as if a great crisis were approaching him.

"Seek Immortality, Heaven's Gift!"

The Yellow Springs Old Ancestor was greatly startled; obviously he had long heard of Yunhe's divine sense attack methods, but at this moment he was fully operating his magic treasure and could not divert attention to resist. Who would have thought that when Yunhe's divine light faded, the Yellow Springs Old Ancestor felt no discomfort at all, and was about to rejoice when he suddenly felt as if struck by lightning, standing frozen in place.

Those present, Red Dust and the others, also momentarily failed to grasp the situation; clearly the one about to receive Yunhe's attack was the Mysterious Void Daoist, so why didn't that Mysterious Void Daoist give his magic treasure for resisting divine sense attacks to himself, but instead give it to the Yellow Springs Old Ancestor?

"Pfft"

After regaining his senses, the Mysterious Void Daoist felt a huge round hole in his chest; he never imagined that Yunhe had discovered their identity. "You"

"To incarnate, you really went all out." Yunhe lightly closed the folding fan in his hand, his gaze cold and arrogant.

Only saw the Mysterious Void Daoist having no time to say anything else, as red blood threads gradually filled his eyeballs; the next moment, a tiny Nascent Soul burst out of his body.

"Damn it. Yunhe, how could you know this seat's secret? Kill, kill, kill—this seat will surely have you."

Then it turned into a stream of light and drilled into the Yellow Springs Old Ancestor's body.

Everyone present now knew the relationship between the Yellow Springs Old Ancestor and the Mysterious Void Daoist—"I never expected that the Yellow Springs Old Ancestor is actually an incarnation of the Mysterious Void Daoist."

"The Mysterious Void Daoist is the chief of the Dao Alliance; if this news gets out"

Red Dust and the other demons looked puzzled, but obviously now is not the time to discuss this—Yunhe actually instantly slew the Mysterious Void Daoist!

You should know, the Mysterious Void Daoist is a veteran late Nascent Soul powerhouse, dominating the Eastern Realm as well; now not only has his secret been leaked, but he was also easily slain.

Although Red Dust and the others thought that luck also played a large part in this.

"Damn, we've lost another powerful combatant now; Yunhe must absolutely not be allowed to live."

"Red Dust, how long must you lot keep watching!"

The Yellow Springs Old Ancestor's white hair flew wildly; for a moment he seemed to have aged several hundred years, his whole body seeming to have been emptied, leaving only skin wrapped around bones.

Obviously, controlling that bizarre secret treasure, the overdraft consumed not only his Spiritual Power but also absorbed a tremendous amount of his life force. With his true self fallen, this blow to the Yellow Springs Old Ancestor—or rather, to the Mysterious Void Daoist—is certainly not minor, but with a formidable enemy before him, he can only suppress his anger and dare not reveal any weakness.

"Vermilion Bird Ring!"

"Heavenly Cold Mirror"

"White Tiger Seal!"

Only see the three demons quickly join the battle, the surging demonic power heavily strikes Yunhe's spell formation.

Pfft

Obviously the pressure from everyone on Yunhe is immense; Yunhe, overloaded controlling the grand formation, still couldn't help spitting a mouthful of fresh blood.

Wiping the blood from his mouth, Yunhe's eyes turned cold as he swept his gaze over the people and demons before him who wanted him dead; his heart hardened, and he saw his formation's operation actually begin to reverse!

Break!

A strong shockwave drove the three demons and the beast back entirely; even the Huangquan Laozu maintaining the skull secret treasure was affected, vomiting a mouthful of fresh blood and collapsing.

Looking again at Yunhe, his eyes blood-red, black hair flying wildly, he stood alone with sword in hand, like a demonic god of the mortal world; obviously the recent reverse operation of the grand formation also affected him, his mind filled with miscellaneous thoughts, his vision a sea of blood-red, Yunhe laughed wildly: 'Hahaha, kill kill kill kill kill kill you all, you all must die!'

As the words fell, Yunhe had already rushed before the white fox; seeing the white fox's eyes full of shock, cold light flashing in its mouth, but it seemed too late—the sword flash passed, the white fox could no longer condense cold light, blood gushed in large amounts from its wound: 'My... chin'

The white fox's voice could no longer be heard clearly; one could only roughly understand from its limbs, fear suppressing the pain, for a moment it actually trembled violently, daring not to move at all.

White Fox.

Xiao Lan rushed forward, attempting again to use its black demonic power to devour Yunhe's spiritual treasure.

Whoosh

Only see Yunhe's ghostly figure flash past; the next moment, Xiao Lan's abdomen appeared a huge sword wound, red blood mixed with various viscera gushing out: 'Who's next?'

Looking at the frenzied Yunhe before him, it seemed as if he had become another person, more evil, more bloodthirsty, and also stronger.

At this moment, a huge red flame surged straight toward Yunhe!

Good that you came!

Yunhe bowed his body and stroked his sword; only see four flying swords appearing around him, five swords pointing at the flame transformed from Hongchen.

The sound of the earth shattering rang out; Yunhe turned into a sword light and met the flame with a bang!

The imagined piercing flame did not appear; just as the two met, the Grand Priest struck Yunhe from the side, sending him several li away, smashing several pits of varying depth into the ground.

Although Hongchen did not hit Yunhe, what colored gleaming feathers flashed, restoring the injuries of Xiao Lan, Baihu, and others.

Yunhe felt as if his bones were all broken, one eye regained clarity—'puh cough cough'.

Only see a mouthful of blood mixed with some visceral fragments spat out; Yunhe could be considered to have awakened from his fire deviation.

Young Master. Young Master you finally woke up.

The artifact spirit in Yunhe's dantian sensed his abnormality and became extremely anxious; however, no matter how it called earlier, it could not wake Yunhe.

I'm fine.

Yunhe said, although his robes are now tattered and there is not a single good spot on his body, he is now very clear-headed.

Yunhe's eyes gleamed brightly; he fearlessly looked at the massive beings charging at him and gave a light smile.

Hehe.

Seeing Yunhe, even at death's door, still having the leisure to mock them, Hongchen let out a sharp bird cry.

Burn the Heavens!

After glancing around at everyone within range, they seemed to turn a blind eye to Hongchen's raging heavenly flames—'All-Heaven Talisman Script Returning Spirit Grand Formation!'

Yunhe held up a single palm forward, one talisman script after another flying out from his bosom.

Papapa

The talisman scripts fluttered about, like a merely agile bird, and in an instant formed a grand formation surrounding all enemies around them; Huangquan Laozu and others were greatly shocked in their hearts, especially Huangquan Laozu, who had long heard that Yunhe had once used a spirit talisman grand formation to slay a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator of the sea clan; but such a vast quantity of talisman scripts, he never imagined Yunhe still had talisman scripts—even the Mysterious Void Dao Alliance could hardly gather so many mid-stage Nascent Soul talisman scripts.

Such a talisman grand formation seemingly covering heaven and earth, its might far surpassing the former spirit talisman grand formation, combining Yunhe's understanding of the Five Elements Nurturing Spirit Pearl, Five Elements Return to One; it is no longer like before, only able to form a grand formation from single-attribute spirit talismans.

Quick! Stop him!

Huangquan Laozu shouted, but he was already too late to interrupt Yunhe, and could only rely on those who had acted first, like Hongchen and others.

Meanwhile, everyone else on the field stood still, mobilizing demonic power to protect themselves; only Hongchen stared fixedly at Yunhe, seeming intent on mutual destruction.

It wasn't what he wanted to do, but he understood that if he stopped like the others, it would be a dead end; if he continued to charge and break through, there might still be a path to survival! Only at this moment, fortune seemed not to be on his side,

Boom!

Yunhe spread his five fingers; as the command issued, all talisman scripts instantly brightened.

At the same moment, a huge explosion surged forth, its power far exceeding that of an ordinary talisman grand formation; with the secret of Five Elements Return to One, each mid-stage Nascent Soul talisman script exerted the combat power of a late-stage Nascent Soul.

However, there were drawbacks; Yunhe, already weak at the explosion's center, was further overturned by the blast wave within the explosion.

Mountains shattered, the heavens and earth changed color, a huge cloud of dust spread between heaven and earth; aside from the sound of falling rocks, there was no other noise.

Not long after, suddenly a figure emerged from the water of a lake—'cough cough.'

Yunhe, bare-chested, with only a thin strip of cloth covering his lower half, struggled out of the water and spat out a large mouthful of lake water.

Really hurts

Yunhe felt he could not mobilize even a trace of spiritual power—'No, I must leave immediately.'

Yunhe struggled to rise; if anyone could still survive under this heaven-destroying, earth-annihilating assault, Yunhe could only surrender—though unlikely—but these were all top-tier spirit monsters. Just as he thought this, whether it was his bad luck or the frayed rope always snapping at its weak point, someone actually survived—'cough cough, good, so strong.'

Only after a while longer, still no movement; Yunhe dared not act rashly, adjusting his breath, attempting to mobilize spiritual power—'puff.'

Yet he coughed up a large mouthful of fresh blood (end of chapter).
