Chapter 668

There was a moment when Unlike Ning Zhuo had the thought of using the Human Life Hanging Thread. He wanted to forcibly control Qing Chi and make her stay far away from the final battlefield.

But immediately after, he sighed softly, and with a complex gaze, he waited quietly for Qing Chi to rendezvous.

On one hand, he could particularly understand Qing Chi. Unlike Ning Zhuo could endure for over a decade in Fire Persimmon Xiancheng for the sake of his own mother; how could he not understand Qing Chi's determination to avenge her father?

On the other hand, deep in Unlike Ning Zhuo's heart, there was a great deal of guilt toward Qing Chi. After all, he had disguised himself as Jiao Ma and deceived this Ghost race girl for a long time; although it was well-intentioned, it indeed contained many elements of exploitation.

As for the death of Qing Yan...

In what war are there no deaths?

"My journey this time is for a righteous cause. It is to seek survival and welfare for the entire White Paper Xiancheng and the countless living beings of the entire Yin Tide Black Swamp!"

"The Qing family was originally a party of White Paper Xiancheng, and similar to the Jiao family, they actively and fully bet on White Paper Xiancheng; they are the most steadfast defenders of the city."

"The evolution of celestial numbers allowed the Qing family to take advantage of the situation and form an army; this was already a tremendous gift."

"Having received this benefit, the Qing-Jiao Army was meant to play its role here!"

This is not child's play.

Unlike Ning Zhuo, Sun Lingtong, and Luo Si—which one of them isn't risking their life? The Buddha Doctor Meng Yaoyin and the Gray Bone Elder have even sacrificed long periods of time and energy, painstakingly laying out plans and scheming.

To be honest, participating to this extent, for the Qing-Jiao Army to have only these minor casualties is already a huge favor.

This is the result of Unlike Ning Zhuo, Luo Si, and others doing their utmost to protect them.

The black clouds churned incessantly, but compared to before, they were no longer dense; the cracks that opened up grew wider and more numerous, allowing the Qing-Jiao Army and Qing Chi to pass through easily.

Most of the Celestial Phase Array had already collapsed. Having passed the initial and most dangerous moment, Unlike Ning Zhuo and Qing Chi were already able to calmly face these remaining turbulent currents.

They successfully rendezvoused at high altitude and immediately followed the passage to kill their way into the altar battlefield.

Boom, boom, boom...

Violent explosions sounded like thunder without end; it was evident that the fighting inside was intense.

The power of the Return to Ruins Black Ball was extraordinary; wherever it corroded, pitch-black colors remained on the turbid qi barrier. No matter how the Earth Lung Turbid Qi surged, trying to fill the gaps, it was all blocked and dissipated by the remaining pitch-black power.

Therefore, this passage remained stable for the time being.

Just as they arrived at the center of the passage, the two saw Luo Si flying over slowly.

Unlike Ning Zhuo and Qing Chi were overjoyed and hurriedly went to meet him.

The three successfully rendezvoused.

Luo Si's condition was extremely poor; after seeing Unlike Ning Zhuo, he nodded slowly and closed his eyes.

Luo Si understood: the reason the Nirvana Buddha phantom had killed its way over was definitely Unlike Ning Zhuo's doing. Unlike Ning Zhuo had not let Luo Si down.

Although they had only spent a very short time together, Luo Si's trust in Unlike Ning Zhuo was significant.

He directly abandoned the outside world and entrusted his life and safety directly to Unlike Ning Zhuo.

Unlike Ning Zhuo hurriedly supported him and carried him as they flew together.

Luo Si had been severely eroded by the Earth Lung Turbid Qi; his injuries were terrifying, and his Nascent Soul was withered, listless, and dim.

Fortunately, he was operating his cultivation technique with all his might, and he began to produce new magic power again.

The magic power began to spread rapidly, reclaiming the lost territory within his body and starting to expel the Earth Lung Turbid Qi step by step.

Seeing this situation, Unlike Ning Zhuo and Qing Chi discussed it and were in no rush to go in. The two first took Luo Si out of the passage and returned to the outside world.

The fighting inside was fierce, and Unlike Ning Zhuo and Qing Chi were only at the Foundation Establishment stage; it was better to observe for a while.

The Nirvana Buddha phantom sat cross-legged, its whole body radiating Buddha light, piercing through all turbid qi.

The Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God took advantage of the cover of the turbid qi, charged up, roared, and swung its fists with all its might.

The sound of the fists was like thunder, and the momentum of the fists was like stars!

The Nirvana Buddha phantom conjured up one Buddha palm print after another, pressing down gently, overcoming hardness with softness, dissipating the fist momentum and turbid qi into nothingness, returning them to silence.

Pfft.

The Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God suddenly lost its momentum; a crack suddenly opened on its divine body, and streams of Earth Lung Turbid Qi erupted, causing its divine body to tremble and its aura to wither.

The Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God suddenly fell into a decline and could only retreat. Holes appeared on the top of its head, spewing endless black smoke.

The black smoke was thick to the extreme, producing sticky black rain that emitted a foul stench and an aura of decay, covering the Nirvana Buddha phantom.

The Buddha light and the black rain contended with each other, and the Nirvana Buddha phantom continued to move forward.

The main body of the Wangchuan Prefect had a nervous expression, feeling anxious in his heart, and subconsciously looked toward the direction of Wangchuan Xiancheng: "Has the message not been delivered yet? It should be

time!"

Wangchuan Xiancheng.

Zeng Jide performed his stealing technique and stole another Earth Lung Nodule, and a sudden mutation occurred.

The giant stone in front of them suddenly shook violently, radiating a powerful yellow light. For a moment, the surrounding gravity doubled, nearly causing the old man and the young boy from the Kong Sect Sect to kneel down.

"What happened?!" Sun Lingtong was suspicious and uncertain.

Zeng Jide discovered that among the Earth Lung Nodules remaining in the giant stone, one suddenly disintegrated, turning into an incomparably pure and vast Earth-element torrent, which followed the magic array, disappeared from the spot, and was teleported away.

This Earth-element torrent encompassed powerful Earth-element magic power, vast Earth Lung Turbid Qi, and surging Earth Fiend power...

Although 20% was consumed due to the teleportation, the remaining 80% was poured into the body of the Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God in a very short time.

"Roar—"

The Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God was like someone injected with a dose of strong stimulant; it roared toward the sky!

The wounds all over its body were rapidly closing and even reshaping under the infusion of the Earth-element torrent. The speed was so fast it was visible to the naked eye.

Its originally withered aura was like a volcanic eruption, climbing step by step, rapidly reaching a certain peak.

With a violent momentum, it once again intercepted the path of the Buddha phantom.

Boom, boom, boom...

Both sides engaged in close-quarters combat.

The Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God's fists were like thunder, carrying ten thousand acres of turbid currents, pounding the Buddha phantom! Every time a fist landed, the space shook violently like torn cloth,

emitting groans of being unable to bear the weight!

The Nirvana Buddha phantom's withered, wood-like body was deeply shaken. Countless Buddha lights on its body were extinguished, the Buddha body was damaged and dented, and countless cracks appeared.

The Nirvana Buddha phantom's body shrank a bit, spread its arms, and performed Buddha palm prints; for a time, it could only parry.

Wangchuan Xiancheng.

"Quick, quick, follow me closely!"

"The enemy is right inside here!!"

"Surround them, don't let them run away; the Prefect's order is to let them die! No matter who it is!!!"

A large number of cultivators surrounded the place, surrounding Zeng Jide and Sun Lingtong tightly.

Sun Lingtong gasped: "Senior, we only took a few things; why is it like poking a hornet's nest?"

Zeng Jide revealed a grave expression and gritted his teeth: "Interesting! This stone is quite important to the Wangchuan Prefect."

As he spoke, his stealing technique did not stop, and he stole another one out.

Pfft.

Far away in the core battlefield, the Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God, which had just risen, lost its momentum again.

The Nirvana Buddha phantom turned to the upper hand.

The Earth Lung Turbid Qi barrier shook, and another Earth Lung Nodule disintegrated, turning into an Earth-element torrent, which was teleported away by the great array.

Roar!

The Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God rose, opened its mouth to breathe, forming a yellow-brown beam of light; the attack distance was very short, smashing half of the Buddha phantom's shoulder to pieces.

Another Earth Lung Nodule was taken out by Zeng Jide.

Pfft.

The Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God lost its momentum, and the Nirvana Buddha phantom slapped the top of its head, causing its entire skull to cave in, and the black smoke it spewed out was reduced by more than half.

Roar!

Pfft.

Roar!

Pfft...

The Wangchuan Prefect was so angry that his eyes were filled with bloodshot veins, and he roared in his heart: "No matter who it is, causing trouble behind my back! After this battle, I will definitely mobilize the power of the whole country to crusade against you, and I will definitely peel your skin and grind your bones, making your soul fly away and scatter!!"

He had never hated a person so much.

More hateful and angry than toward Yin Jiuzhu or Unlike Ning Zhuo.

This was too mentally taxing.

The Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God was sometimes strong and sometimes weak, which greatly interfered with its fighting rhythm; even if it fought with all its might, it only delayed the forward progress of the Nirvana Buddha phantom.

The Nirvana Buddha phantom was not having an easy time either; most of its power had to suppress the Wangchuan Prefect Seal.

The closer this national treasure got to the Wangchuan Prefect's main body, the more restless it became.

The Nirvana Buddha phantom had no choice, knowing deeply that it had to win quickly!

It waited for work at its ease; although its power was strong, it was water without a source. Looking at the Wangchuan Prefect, his main body was severely injured and was actively accumulating the power for a battle. And the Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God could borrow the Earth Phase Array, having a continuous supply.

Although it would lose momentum, it ultimately had more replenishment.

The Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God's fists pounded on the Buddha phantom, smashing the Buddha body until it cracked and the Buddha light dimmed.

The Buddha phantom's palm prints were also branded on the Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God's divine body, leaving palm prints that were difficult to erase.

Both sides' battle groups advanced with difficulty amidst the explosions; the Buddha light and the earth qi were entangled tightly, consuming each other fiercely, shattering the space. Countless space fragments flew around like glass shards.

Ultimately, this battle group was pushed in front of the Wangchuan tributary.

The Nirvana Buddha phantom had shrunk again and again, its figure only 30% of what it was before. Its withered Buddha body was covered with cracks, its shoulder was smashed in, its chest was also dented, the Buddha light was gone, and light spots only leaked from the wounds, as if it were shedding essence.

The Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God was also broken and dilapidated, its posture staggering, one arm broken, urgently needing replenishment. The Buddha palm prints on its body had created several huge wounds, especially the one on its back, which had almost broken its spine, making people's eyes ache.

The Nirvana Buddha phantom pressed its palms together in front of its chest; although its mouth did not open, a Nirvana Zen chant that shook the soul resounded through the universe!

Invisible ripples spread violently, not only shaking off the Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God in front of it but also striking the Wangchuan tributary, causing the water waves to surge and form huge waves.

The Zen sound rammed around like an invisible heavenly blade, almost splitting the Wangchuan tributary in front of it into two sections.

The Wangchuan tributary that made Unlike Ning Zhuo retreat was just a matter of one move in front of the Nirvana Buddha phantom.

"Come." The Wangchuan Prefect's main body lunged out fiercely.

He raced against time to recuperate, unable to sleep, but he had also accumulated the power for a battle.

For a moment, the Wangchuan tributary roared, and a dragon condensed in the raging waves, pouncing toward the Nirvana Buddha phantom.

The Nirvana Buddha phantom did not dodge or avoid, took the opportunity to separate its palms, opened its arms, and invested almost all its combat power into it.

Its figure became dim and lusterless, but the Nirvana Zen intent was purer and more vast than before.

Buddha Dharma—Withered Glory and Shared Sorrow!

The water dragon seemed to be throwing itself into an embrace; when it approached the Nirvana Buddha phantom, it was like vegetation withering, and its momentum plummeted.

And the Buddha phantom's aura rose instead, as if it had absorbed the power of the water dragon, and its power continued to rise back.

The Wangchuan Prefect's whole body was filled with underworld light rushing to the sky, and the Wangchuan phantom behind him flowed and roared; he went all out, his face filled with a grave and solemn expression, staring fixedly at the great enemy in front of him.

The combat power he had painstakingly accumulated also plummeted like a flood, just like these water dragons that followed one after another.

But the next moment, the Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God pounced from behind.

It roared, its divine body suddenly collapsed, compressed to the limit, and turned into a huge meteor.

Boom...

The meteor rushed over, burning with dark yellow flames, dragging a long tail of black smoke.

This was a suicidal strike!

The meteor collided with the Buddha's back, was resisted by the flourishing Buddha light, and its speed became slower and slower, but it was always approaching.

The Nirvana Buddha phantom was attacked from front and back, facing enemies on both sides.

Its Withered Glory and Shared Sorrow could curb the enemy and strengthen itself, but such an offensive had already exceeded the conversion limit.

The Buddha body swayed like the light and shadow of a candle in a strong wind.

A flash of joy crossed the Wangchuan Prefect's eyes; in the life-and-death struggle, he finally

saw the chance of victory!

Wangchuan Xiancheng.

Zeng Jide shouted loudly and sacrificed his life-bound magic treasure again.

The Three-Handed Monkey Buddha statue suddenly glowed, and the Buddha light condensed, forming a monkey claw, which directly grabbed the entire giant stone.

The next moment, Sun Lingtong heard the monkey head let out a sharp screech, the monkey claw retracted, and brought the entire giant stone back!

The giant stone was huge, but in the process of recovery, it became smaller and smaller.

Finally, Zeng Jide took back the life-bound Buddha statue, and in his hand was a giant stone micro-carving that had shrunk several times.

Zeng Jide snorted, and his aura plummeted. He held the giant stone micro-carving in one hand and grabbed Sun Lingtong's arm with the other.

"Go!"

Sun Lingtong only felt his eyes dazzled, as if he had fallen into a colorful world of flowers.

Almost in the next breath, a group of cultivators from the City Lord's Mansion broke in.

"Don't let any of them... where are they people?!"

The cultivators' expressions changed drastically.

Altar battlefield.

The Earth Fiend meteor suddenly shook, and the dark yellow flames that were originally surging and burning dimmed sharply, becoming small flames.

The meteor body, compressed to the extreme, disintegrated rapidly, countless fragments fell apart, and large swaths of turbid qi were unable to be restrained, scattering everywhere.

The Nirvana Buddha phantom's pressure was suddenly reduced, and it regained its momentum!

It stood forward, spread its arms, and walked toward the Wangchuan Prefect in an embracing posture.

Water dragons and giant waves constantly struck its face; the Buddha phantom became dimmer and dimmer, the number of cracks on its body exploded, crisscrossing.

The Wangchuan Prefect retreated continuously, his face extremely pale, and even carried a trace of sorrow.

His gaze was still sharp, filled with anger, and also carried unwillingness and resentment, but soon, it turned into hesitation and fear.

He knew the battle situation deeply; he absolutely could not hold on.

If he didn't retreat, he would be embraced by the Nirvana Buddha phantom and die! A dignified Prefect would lose his life in this heaven-defying act.

"Good, Soundless Ghost Monk, I didn't expect the final winner to be you."

"The hatred of blocking the Dao is irreconcilable; I have noted it!"

The next moment, the Wangchuan Prefect spat out a mouthful of origin, triggered the Celestial Phase Array, teleported himself away, and disappeared from the spot.

Without his support, the raging waves rolled back, and the water dragons exploded.

The Nirvana Buddha phantom's frontal pressure plummeted, and it turned to kill the Earth Fiend Turbid Filth God.

It spread its five fingers, and the Buddha hand became larger and larger, as if it wanted to encompass the universe!

The Buddha hand covered down, directly covering the meteor divine body, and squeezed fiercely.

Boom—
