The Baleful Yin Force that filled the air surged over and rapidly drifted towards everyone. Very soon, it covered the place where they had been standing before.
Ruijin had just broken free. Before he could flee, the Baleful Yin Force was already extremely close to him. It was less than a hundred meters away, and this distance was rapidly shrinking.
Ruijin's face suddenly changed. Before the Baleful Yin Force had even entered his soul, he felt an intense stabbing pain, accompanied by a strong sense of dizziness. The Baleful Yin Force was so powerful that even Ruijin struggled to endure it.
Ruijin became extremely stern as shock filled his heart. He was a Golden Divine Dragon, the king of the Dragon clan. He possessed a unique advantage, both his body and soul were extremely powerful. The Baleful Yin Force had not even gotten close to him yet, but it had already affected his soul so greatly. He found this unbelievable.
The origin energy orb appeared above Ruijin's head. It shone with a hazy light that enveloped his body, protecting his soul. With the assistance of the origin energy orb, the discomfort from Ruijin's soul immediately vanished.
The origin energy orb was an origin energy treasure that specialized in blocking everything that targeted the soul. Although the Baleful Yin Force was very powerful, it was clearly unable to break through the defenses of the origin energy orb.
Ruijin's eyes flickered with golden light as he stared at the huge skeleton hidden in the Baleful Yin Force for a while. Afterward, he quickly arrived before Jianchen and stood with Honglian and Black Fish.
"What's up with this skeleton?" Ruijin growled. He had been trapped in Mo Tianyun's hand earlier, so he was isolated from the outside world. He had no idea what had happened outside.
"It suddenly appeared. No one knows what's going on, but it's an enemy, not a friend," Honglian said with a heavy voice.
"The Baleful Yin Force is very terrifying. No human expert can endure it. Once they come in contact with it, their souls will be wiped out. Let's leave this place quickly before anyone notices the Saints' Fruit. I suddenly feel like the Death Nest isn't as simple as it seems," Black Fish said with a frown. He was stern.
All the human experts quickly retreated, distancing themselves from the Baleful Yin Force. The terror of the Baleful Yin Force had frightened many of them out of their wits. Very few of them cared about the Saints' Fruit anymore.
"Xiang'er, we can't stay here for long. Let's leave quickly," Changyang Qing Yun suddenly arrived beside Jianchen. He called out to him in an extremely friendly manner, filled with concern.
Jianchen frowned slightly as an undetectable cold light flashed through his eyes. He ignored Changyang Qing Yun, directly treating him like he was nothing.
Changyang Qing Yun had used the fact that he had removed the ancient secret technique to plant another ancient secret technique in Huang Luan's soul, which made Jianchen extremely furious. He vaguely began to treat Changyang Qing Yun as an enemy.
"Let's go," Ruijin growled before pulling Jianchen away by the arm.
The Baleful Yin Force permeated the area very quickly, but it was still slower than the flight of the Holy Emperor. The Holy Emperor experts immediately pulled away from the Baleful Yin Force with their retreat. They were about to leave the third zone.
At this moment, the blood-red skeleton roared at the sky. There was no sound, but a visible ripple rippled through the surroundings. Every single bone on its body surged with endless Baleful Yin Force, causing the blood-red mist to become viscous, as if it had turned into a sea of blood.
Endless Baleful Yin Force flowed into the ground, causing the blood-red ground to become even redder. At the same time, a faint, red light began to radiate from the ground.
The formation on the third floor of the Death Nest was originally only used to isolate the Baleful Yin Qi between the second and third floors. It could not stop people from entering or leaving, but at that moment, the formation suddenly began to operate. It formed a layer of faint, red mist that enveloped the third floor, preventing the human experts from leaving.
"How is this possible? The skeleton can actually control the formations here. Weren't these formations cast down by Mo Tianyun in the past? How does it know how to control them? "
"Looks like the skeleton has already gained sentience. It's not simple at all. It's using the Baleful Yin Force to activate the formations, or it's using the formations to allow the Baleful Yin Force to have other wondrous effects."
"We can't leave. Let's all work together to break through the formations."
Immediately, many Holy Emperor experts struck out at the same time, launching powerful attacks at the formations. However, the formations had been cast down by Mo Tianyun in the past. Even though countless years had passed since then, their power had not decreased at all, so how could a group of Holy Emperor break through them? No matter how much force they used, they were unable to make the formations tremble at all.
Ruijin, Honglian, and Black Fish struck out as well. They used their origin energy treasures to attack the formations at the same time, but all they could do was make the formations shake. They could not break through them.
The ground continued to tremble as the blood-red skeleton approached them step by step. Its footsteps were like mountains, and every step it took caused the ground to tremble violently. A dense, baleful aura surged forward, getting closer and closer to them.
All the human experts became frantic. The Baleful Yin Force was like the scythe of the god of death to them. It could ignore the defences of Saint Force and specifically attack the souls of people. Even though many of them had grasped ancient secret techniques, they could not think of any way to resist the Baleful Yin Force.
"Could it be that all of us are going to die here today?" Someone released a howl of grief, regretting entering this place.
"God dammit, how did this skeleton appear? Why hasn't it appeared in all these years? Why did it suddenly appear when Holy Emperor were rare?" The experts of the protector clans were confused. They were filled with questions. The skeleton's appearance had become a mystery to all of them.
Jianchen became extremely stern as well. He stared at the Baleful Yin Force up ahead and said, "These human experts can't all die here. The Tian Yuan Continent can't bear such a loss. Senior Ruijin, senior Honglian, and senior Black Fish, may I ask if you can destroy this skeleton?"
"The Baleful Yin Force has no effect on us. The three of us can try," said Rui Jin. Afterwards, he, Hong Lian, and Hei Yu attacked the Blood-red Skeleton together.
However, the skeleton's strength exceeded everyone's expectations. The powerful attacks from the origin energy weapons of Ruijin, Hei Yu, and Hei Yu only left behind shallow marks on the skeleton. The attacks that were powerful enough to injure the Holy Emperor failed to break a single bone.
At this moment, there was a flash of red light. A huge bone club had appeared in the skeleton's hand at some point in time, and it directly swept toward Ruijin, Hei Yu, and Hei Yu.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
With three heavy sounds, Ruijin, Hei Yu, and Hei Yu were all blown away by the skeleton's club. Their origin energy armor dimmed.
This scene stunned all the experts present. Their mouths were wide open, and their faces were filled with disbelief.
They knew the strength of Ruijin, Hei Yu, and Hei Yu extremely well. They were supreme experts who could defeat the Holy Emperor, yet they could not even withstand a single strike from the skeleton.
"It's surpassed the Holy Emperor. This skeleton's strength has reached the level of the four ancient sovereigns," a great elder of a protector clan cried out. His voice trembled in fear.
