"Honglian, you have to hold on. Ruijin's secret technique of the Dragon clan will be complete very soon." Black Fish encouraged Honglian as he stood beside her. He was rather worried as well, but there was nothing he could do to help. He was only a mutated crocodile. Although he possessed the battle prowess of beasts of antiquity, he did not possess a bloodline legacy, so he obviously did not possess any legacy secret techniques.
Honglian trembled more and more. She could not last much longer. More and more Holy Emperor vengeful spirits attacked the Ninerefined Godfire Feather. There were almost a hundred and fifty of them, and many more vengeful spirits could be seen in the distance. They had all been drawn over by the Saints' Fruit.
However, without any exception, all the vengeful spirits of the Holy Emperor that had hurried over from all directions discovered the situation. They all joined in the attack on Honglian's group. This was their instinct.
Boom! With a great rumble, a feather was sent flying. A gap immediately appeared in Honglian's World of Feathers. Gustys and a few other Holy Emperor vengeful spirits that were as tall as him appeared in the gap. They allowed the endless white flames to burn them.
With a flash, Black Fish vanished from Honglian's side. He immediately went over to block the gap and began fighting against Gustys and the others with his origin energy weapon. He did everything he could to keep them outside.
At this moment, another loud sound rang out. The second feather was also sent flying, causing a second gap to appear in the protective barrier formed by the Universe of Feathers.
Honglian produced a loud phoenix's cry. She controlled the Scorching Godfire Hairpin with her mind and sent it flying over with flames. She used the origin energy treasure to block the gap.
The pressure they faced was increasing. Not only was maintaining the World of Feathers very taxing on Honglian, but the number of vengeful spirits outside was rapidly increasing as well.
Not long after, a third loud sound rang out. Another phoenix feather was sent flying, and a third gap appeared.
Black Fish and Honglian's expressions became extremely ugly. They had already used everything they had. They no longer had the energy to block the third gap.
However, at this moment, the golden saint artifact flew out from Ruijin. With a shower of golden light, Jianchen and Tie Ta silently appeared there.
Without any hesitation, they immediately charged toward the third gap. The two of them worked together to block the third gap.
Jianchen pushed the defences of his Chaotic Body to the limit. Even Tie Ta was enveloped by a layer of dense, golden light, blocking the terrifying waves of heat in the surroundings.
The two of them were unscathed now. Their wounds from before had all been healed in the artifact space, so they had returned to their peak.
However, even with that being the case, it was still extremely difficult for the two of them to block the gap with their strength. They were both injured very soon.
A few seconds later, a fourth gap appeared in the World of Feathers. Immediately, several vengeful spirits of the Holy Emperor charged in, lunging toward Ruijin and Honglian.
The Scorching Godfire Hairpin that had blocked the first gap flew back as a white streak of light. It passed through the vengeful spirits of the Holy Emperor with lightning speed, scattering them. However, they reformed in the next moment.
With the Scorching Godfire Hairpin gone, the first gap immediately lost its protection. The vengeful spirits of the Holy Emperor outside began to charge in.
Jianchen, Tie Ta, Honglian, and Black Fish all revealed different expressions. However, at this moment, a dazzling golden light illuminated the sky, dyeing the entire Death Nest golden. The surrounding space shook violently as Spatial Force shook up the surroundings, throwing the surroundings into chaos.
"The miniature world has been formed. Everyone, hurry up and enter." At the same time, Ruijin's voice rang out in the ears of Jianchen and the others. A three-meter-tall door stood before Ruijin. It shone with dazzling golden light, making it impossible to see what was inside.
Jianchen, Tie Ta, and Black Fish rejoiced. As if they had grasped onto a life-saving straw in their despair, they all abandoned the vengeful spirits of the Holy Emperor and charged into the golden door as quickly as they could.
Honglian also returned to her human form. Her face was pale and filled with exhaustion. With a flash, she entered the golden door. With a wave of her hand, the countless feathers that formed the World of Feathers immediately collapsed, turning into red feathers that flew toward Honglian. In the end, they reformed into a complete set of Ninerefined Godfire Feathers on Honglian.
Without the obstruction of the World of Feathers, the vengeful spirits immediately surged over from all directions. They all charged towards the golden door, but as soon as they approached it, the golden door suddenly vanished without a trace.
Bang! Bang!
A series of collisions rang out as the bodies of the vengeful spirits collided with each other. Among them, there were even two vengeful spirits that were smashed into pieces, turning into black mist. However, they quickly reformed in an instant.
With the disappearance of the golden door, the Path of Death returned to its usual silence. After losing their target, the vengeful spirits rapidly calmed down. They did not fight, and instead, they acted like nothing had happened. They silently made their way toward the Saints' Fruit before sitting around it and meditating. They absorbed the fragrance from the fruit and reformed their bodies.
This was a golden world. As far as the eye could see, it was barren. Not a single blade of grass grew. There were no signs of life at all.
Rui Ji, Honglian, Black Fish, Jianchen, and Tie Ta all sat on the ground. They were rather exhausted, Honglian in particular. Her face was pale while Jianchen and Tie Ta's situation was not good either. They had just recovered from their wounds, but they were heavily injured once more.
"We've finally broken free from those annoying things. Ruijin, will those damned vengeful spirits find us if we hide here?" Black Fish let out a long sigh of relief. At the same time, he became rather worried.
Ruijin shook his head, "This is a miniature world I created using a supreme secret technique of the Dragon clan. It's equivalent to creating another space. Even those with great mastery over the mysteries of space will struggle to sense it, let alone those vengeful spirits. Don't worry, we'll be absolutely safe here. It's just that using this secret technique will consume a lot of energy."
Black Fish finally stopped worrying. He said, "That's good then. I underestimated these vengeful spirits far too much. I never thought that they would be so difficult to deal with when so many of them gathered together, forcing the three of us into such a horrible state."
"Although the vengeful spirits are nowhere near as strong as when they were alive, they're even more terrifying than the Holy Emperor in a certain aspect. If the Holy Emperor was struck by our origin energy weapons, he would definitely become heavily injured and his strength would plummet. However, the vengeful spirits won't suffer the same fate. They're basically unkillable existences," Honglian added.
"Alright, let's not talk about that right now. Let's use this time to properly recover. Then, we'll properly discuss how to deal with the situation," Ruijin said.
Afterwards, Ruijin, Black Fish, Honglian, and Tie Ta all recovered the energy they had consumed. They needed to maintain their peak condition here, or it would be impossible for them to recover once they were outside.
Jianchen sat on the ground and silently healed as well. The intense battle earlier had not depleted much of their Chaotic Force. Every single strand of Chaotic Force in the third layer was condensed from tremendous amounts of energy of the world, so it was extremely slow to deplete under normal circumstances. At the same time, his Chaotic Force could not be recovered just because he wanted to because he needed to prepare a large amount of energy to refine it.
Seven days later, they all recovered to their peak condition. Ruijin used a secret technique of the Dragon clan to condense a droplet of dragon blood into a mirror. The mirror clearly reflected the Saints' Fruit and the situation in the surroundings.
The Saints' Fruit remained the same as it had been a few days ago, but the surroundings were filled with vengeful spirits. They were all at the level of the Holy Emperor, and there were no less than five hundred of them. There were humans, Hundred Races, and magical beasts. All of them felt their scalps tingle at the sight.
