"Fufufu!"
Su Zimo's body was hunched over and his eyes were tightly shut. No one knew how much pain he was enduring as he let out a hoarse roar from the depths of his throat.
The True Fire burned fiercely, and his body twitched. His flesh and blood had already been burned black, and crackling sounds could be heard. It was a horrible sight to behold.
In the light of the flames, Su Zimo's face was faintly discernible. His facial features were contorted from the pain and were unrecognizable, looking somewhat menacing.
Demoness Ji's heart ached at the sight of it and her eyes turned misty.
"Cough, cough!"
Her internal injuries acted up and she coughed out two more mouthfuls of black blood with some shattered organs in a frightening manner.
"To think that I would still die here."
Her eyes dimmed and she was on the verge of death.
Her organs were badly damaged after receiving a full-powered attack from the Sealer and her life was draining rapidly. Unless she had extraordinary methods, she would definitely die.
However, in the ancient battlefield, the person with the highest cultivation was Perfected Jin Dan – who could save her?
"How could that be?"
Suddenly, a soft exclamation sounded from not far away in disbelief.
It was the voice of Illusion Fiend Cult's Sealer.
Instinctively, she followed the gaze of Illusion Fiend Cult's Old Man and looked at Su Zimo once more.
At that moment, the True Fire on Su Zimo's body was much smaller than before and was even showing signs of extinguishing!
Demoness Ji's mouth was slightly agape and a look of shock flashed through her eyes.
Although Su Zimo was almost charred black with smoke billowing from his body, the flames on his body were indeed weakening.
Or rather, they were shifting!
The scorching flames tilted slightly and surged towards Su Zimo's right hand as though they were guided by some mysterious force, entering the blood red bone palm!
Apart from Su Zimo himself, nobody knew or could explain what was happening to him.
Initially, his injuries were too severe and exceeded the limits of his body's regeneration. His wounds could not heal and were bleeding the entire time.
If not for the True Fire, he would have bled to death.
However, it was precisely because of the burning of the True Fire that the flesh around the two wounds was burnt to a crisp, temporarily stopping the bleeding and thus preserving his life!
At the same time, the blood-colored bone palm seemed to undergo a slight change under the burning of the True Fire.
It was as if a seal had been undone, and some kind of power had been quietly awakened. Like a whale drinking water, it devoured the Primordial Fire on Su Zimo's body in large mouthfuls without any restraint!
Before the True Fire could threaten Su Zimo, more than half of it had already been devoured by the blood-colored bone palm!
It could be said that by a freak combination of factors, the True Fire had temporarily saved Su Zimo's life.
A terrifying aura gradually grew and lingered around the blood-colored bone palm.
…
Ta, ta, ta!
The sound of footsteps could be heard. Murderous intent surged, almost suffocating him!
Demoness Ji was shocked.
Formless Monastery's old monk had already been devoured by the spatial tear behind him, leaving only Illusion Fiend Cult's Sealer!
The flames on Su Zimo's body had yet to dissipate. His eyes were closed and he stood on the spot like a piece of coal with a weak aura.
She grit her teeth and supported herself with her trembling arms. After a few failures, she finally managed to stand up and staggered in front of Su Zimo.
It was a simple action but it expended the last of her strength.
Her body swayed and she could not even stand properly, as though a gust of wind could blow her over.
However, she raised her head and looked at the murderous Illusion Fiend Cult's Sealer who was striding over with an unprecedented resolute gaze!
She knew that there was nothing she could do about her injuries. However, that might not be the case for Su Zimo.
The Human Emperor's Palace!
That might be Su Zimo's only chance of turning things around!
There were many signs that indicated that Su Zimo was this generation's successor of the Human Emperor's Palace. As long as he could enter the Human Emperor's Palace, he might be able to survive.
Of course, that was only a possibility.
Nobody knew what was within the Human Emperor's Palace.
The footsteps vanished.
Arriving before Demoness Ji, the Old Man of Illusion Fiend Cult paused with a cold expression.
"Since you're so protective of him, could this little beast be your tripod?" The Sealer of Illusion Fiend Cult asked slowly and looked at Demoness Ji with a mocking and mocking gaze.
"So what if he is?"
Demoness Ji's expression darkened and her face was lifeless – her lifeforce was almost negligible.
If not for her willpower, she would have collapsed a long time ago.
"Hahahaha!"
It was as though the Old Man of Illusion Fiend Cult had just heard the greatest joke in the world.
The Sealers of Overlord Palace and Cloud Rain Sect frowned and looked at Demoness Ji in disbelief as well.
"Stupid, truly stupid!"
After laughing enough, the Old Man of Illusion Fiend Cult shook his head and lamented, "To think that the Pure Maiden of the fiend sects of this generation would be so infatuated that she would choose a cultivator as her tripod. What a joke."
Demoness Ji pursed her lips and her eyelids turned heavy.
She could no longer hear what the Old Man of Illusion Fiend Cult was saying. All she could feel was a rumbling sound in her ears that was both near and far as her consciousness gradually faded.
"The reason why you're stalling for time even at the cost of your life is because you want this little beast to enter the Human Emperor's Palace."
The Old Man of Illusion Fiend Cult sneered, "Unfortunately, both of you have to die! I'll kill you today so that you won't embarrass Pure Maiden Sect and the fiend sects! "
The moment he said that, the killing intent in the Old Man's eyes intensified. Swiping his waist, he pulled out a soft sword that shone with a cold light.
Piak!
With a tremble, the soft sword straightened!
Against two helpless and dying Foundation Establishment Cultivators, the Old Man of Illusion Fiend Cult had no intention of holding back as he burst forth with the power of the Jin Dan realm and thrust his sword forward.
That single thrust was enough to skewer both of their heads together!
The sword qi was like frost with a wanton might.
Demoness Ji could no longer hold on and fell backwards.
Suddenly, an arm reached out and supported her body.
The next moment, Demoness Ji caught sight of a person in her blurry vision.
Although the person was charred black and unrecognizable, she could still recognize him.
His eyes shone with a scarlet blood light as though he wanted to devour someone!
Suddenly, Su Zimo reached out with his right hand.
The Old Man of Illusion Fiend Cult's pupils constricted and he was shocked.
There was no flesh on the palm and it was all scarlet bones that burned with fine flames. It gave off a terrifying aura that seemed as though it could incinerate the heavens, boil the seas and destroy all life!
It seemed like the hand of a divine being that emanated a shuddering aura.
Even the Sealers not far away and the many cultivators watching from afar felt their hearts skip a beat, let alone the Old Man of Illusion Fiend Cult!
Some of the cultivators could not withstand the might and sprawled on the ground, silent as cicadas in the winter.
Many cultivators felt an incomparable sense of inferiority in their hearts.
The blood bone palm reached out for the soft sword.
Drip! Drip!
Before the soft sword could pierce the blood bone palm, it melted into liquid steel and dripped onto the ground.
A perfect-grade spirit weapon was destroyed just like that!
The dimensional tear was right behind the Old Man of Illusion Fiend Cult and there was no way for him to retreat. In his vision, a burning palm approached him and grew larger …
