Ang~
Lei Long let out a heaven-shaking, earth-rending mournful cry, his massive dragon body beginning to crumble from the chest.
Purple-red scales and charred law fragments sprayed outward like a rainstorm.
The entire dragon body, under the trio's successive attacks, completely lost its form at this moment, turning back into countless fragments that dissipated into the void beneath the blood-red canopy.
After the dragon body crumbled, that complete finger bone nearly a zhang long hovered alone in the void, its thunder patterns dimmed by more than half, cracks covering its surface, yet still emitting a faint purple-red glow.
Luo Qinghan reached out and drew the complete finger bone over; this time she did not put it into a jade box, but directly wrapped it in a thick layer of ice crystal seal using the Cold Moon Law, then flipped her hand and sent it into the depths of her Shen Guo for suppression.
At the same moment Lei Long was dealt with, that forcibly torn spatial rift had already begun to contract inward at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The canopy's self-repair speed was faster than expected.
The blood-red runes at the rift's edge, like countless tiny tentacles, spread toward the gap from all directions.
Once they sealed it shut, tearing open another exit of equal scale would not be something an incense stick's worth of time could resolve.
Feng Buhui shouted to everyone: "The rift won't last more than a few breaths—go!"
After shouting those words, he dove into the spatial rift first, Lu Wangchuan following closely behind.
The others reacted, filing in one after another.
In an instant, everyone had left the area covered by the red canopy through the spatial rift.
Having lost its core sacrifice, the canopy no longer actively expanded, but those dense blood-red runes still writhed.
Three unnamed planets, eroded by evil power, rotated outside the canopy.
After more than half of their star cores were drawn away by the Lord in Red's power, they began to show obvious deviation.
It looked like, within a few hundred years at most, they would collide with each other or disintegrate under gravitational tearing.
After everyone emerged, they all turned to look at that Cang Lei Ancient Clan Survivor who had already lost human form—or rather, the monster that had become the Lord in Red's sacrifice.
The other's body had swollen to a size completely unlike that of a human.
His skin was stretched transparent from within, clearly revealing the crimson light wriggling beneath like earthworms.
His features had melted into that twisted mass of red light, replaced by a blurred, nearly abstract human face contour.
At the mouth position of the contour, it split open upward at an extremely unnatural arc.
As if smiling, as if chanting words no one could understand.
"Once the sacrifice begins, it cannot be stopped!"
The voice from the monster's mouth was no longer that Survivor's voice, but a strange chorus of countless voices layered together.
Old and young, male and female.
As if the voices of all the Cang Lei Ancient Clan's deceased tribesmen over thirty-eight thousand years were all kneaded together and stuffed into this body.
"The Lord in Red has already remembered your scent!"
"No matter which place, which Boundary Realm you flee to, He will find you!"
"Your flesh and blood, your laws, your Great Dao—all will eventually become part of the Lord in Red; the good show has not yet begun!"
"So much nonsense!"
Luo Qinghan's expression sank, Cold Moon brightened behind her.
Ten thousand zhang of moonlight crushed over from the void, pressing that monster along with all the twisted red light on it into a mass of constantly struggling red mist.
Huo Yuan followed closely, Hunyuan Heavy Water turning into countless blue needle-thorns, piercing into the mist to decompose and purify the Lord in Red's evil power.
The characteristic of the Heavy Water Law is "carrying all things."
It can absorb all foreign laws into itself for dilution.
Even if the Lord in Red's power was however strange, under Huo Yuan's full-force purification, it could only be worn away bit by bit.
Baili Hong added a strike; White Tiger Killing Qi surged into that constantly shrinking red mist from nine directions simultaneously, then launched a massacre within the mist, soon tearing even the last trace of residual red light into fragments.
The three sides struck together; the Cang Lei Ancient Clan Survivor, along with the Lord in Red's power he carried, finally dissipated completely in the void, not leaving a single speck of flying ash.
The blood-red canopy, having lost its core sacrifice, began to collapse inward from the edges.
Those runes constantly writhing within the canopy, after letting out a final mournful cry, seemed to lose their support and peeled off from the void.
Before they could fall to the planet surface, they turned into nothingness in mid-air.
The three planets activated by the Lord in Red's power also stopped trembling at the same time; crimson light no longer surged from the cracks on the planet surface.
Huo Yuan's face was as still as water; after a long silence, he finally spoke: "Luo Siming, you have won this battle."
"The remnants of the Cang Lei Ancient Clan are destroyed, and the finger bone belongs to your Beidou Xianfu; this Seat will not obstruct."
"But you have also seen that behind the Cang Lei Ancient Clan are Outer Realm evil fiends."
"Not ordinary evil fiends, but an evil fiend capable of infiltrating a Rank Seventh Ancient Clan within Dongji Lingzhou itself, remaining undiscovered for tens of thousands of years."
This situation was equivalent to slapping the Dongji Lingzhou Guardian Mansion across the face.
It was also equivalent to poking a hole in the defense system of the entire Endless Star Domain.
The Cang Lei Ancient Clan could do this—who dares guarantee that among the Ten Great Ancient Clans, the other nine have not been infiltrated?
What about the Nine Great Immortal Sects?
What about the Thousand Hegemons?
Among those great figures who appear upright on the surface, how many are clean behind the scenes?
Luo Qinghan withdrew Cold Moon, her expression still cold and absolute, but a hint of solemnity flashed in the depths of her eyes: "The matter of the Cang Lei Ancient Clan, Beidou Xianfu has noted it."
The Lord of Red Robes, I will send someone to investigate.
President Jin of the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce was also present; the Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce's intelligence network spans the Zhutian Wan Jie, and with President Jin's help, they should be able to find things that cannot be found.
As for the Ten Great Ancient Clans and Nine Great Immortal Sects, whether there is a second Cang Lei Ancient Clan.
Guardian Hu, this probably requires the Dongji Lingzhou Guardian Mansion to investigate itself; the Xianfu is not convenient to overstep its bounds.
But I can give you a suggestion, Bloodline.
A junior of the Cang Lei Ancient Clan can refine the finger bone fragment into their bloodline within their body.
Without surprise, this was cultivated through uninterrupted sacrifices over tens of thousands of years.
If other Ancient Clans are colluding with Evil Forces, then their bloodlines must be unclean!
Mo Li withdrew the Shadow Law, and returned Xu Zhangqing, Jin Buhuan, Feng Buhui, and Lu Wangchuan to the Void.
Jin Buhuan took out a Wanxiang Chamber of Commerce exclusive recording jade slip from his womb; he stored all the images from just now, from the Cang Lei Ancient Clan Survivor changing faces until the red sky curtain collapsed, into this jade slip: "This image, I will report it to the General Management Office."
The Cang Lei Ancient Clan holds a grand clan ceremony every thousand years.
If the Lord of Red Robes' spies truly span the Zhutian Wan Jie, then similar sacrifices probably have not only appeared in Dongji Lingzhou.
Xu Zhangqing stood in the Void, looking at the planet collapsing in the distance, and thought to himself: "Originally thought it was a small matter, unexpectedly it involves so much."
That distorted red light was exactly the same as what erupted from the Chaos Sea; hard to say, did Master not erase it, but instead let it run away?
