Around five minutes later, Houston, who had dived to the bottom of the sea of blood, finally resurfaced. His aged face carried an expression of unconcealable excitement and joy, and his eyes stared unblinkingly at his hands.
To no surprise, he held nine thumb-sized beads of blood in his hands. Every single bead was translucent and extremely bright. They shone with a dazzling red light, just like red agate stones.
However, every single one of the nine beads pulsed with extremely great energy, enough to even surprise Overgods. Even the Divine King's face changed.
The energy within the nine beads was just too great. If they exploded in a single moment, they would be able to unleash devastating power that could easily kill Overgods.
Jianchen, Shen Jian, and Seiyu noticed the nine beads of blood in Houston's hands as well. They were all very stern.
"These nine beads should be the beads condensed from the essence of endless blood that Fairy Haoyue mentioned. The Heavenly Demon Religion has spent so much effort to condense these beads, yet uncle Xiu has taken them all away. This matter will definitely cause a huge uproar in the Heavenly Demon Religion, "Jianchen was rather heavy-hearted. He could tell just how important this place was to the Heavenly Demon Religion from the formations cast down here.
Or in other words, just how important this place was to the great elder of the Heavenly Demon Religion.
If the great elder personally came to the Cloud Plane, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Houston was about to leave after collecting the nine beads of blood. However, his body stiffened slightly, and he raised his head to look at the sky. He stared at the huge swirl of Yin Wind in the sky.
After a moment of hesitation, he began to fly into the sky under the protection of the blood-red light from the Empyrean Demon Orb. Very soon, he was swallowed by the huge swirl of chilling wind.
When he reappeared, there were nine thumb-sized beads in his hands apart from the nine thumb-sized beads.
They were all jet-black beads.
This black pearl contained an extremely powerful and incomparably pure soul power.
Now, the nine beads of blood and soul had all ended up in Houston's hands.
At this moment, there was a flash, and the white-clothed Fairy Haoyue had already returned to Jianchen and the others. When she saw the nine beads of blood and soul in Houston's hands, her eyes narrowed as well. She said with a heavy voice, "The Heavenly Demon Religion will definitely alarm the true upper echelon now that they have lost the beads of blood and soul. It might even alarm the great elder. We can't stay here for long. We need to leave as soon as possible. The Heavenly Demon Religion will probably make a huge move soon. "
At the same time, Houston understood the severity of the matter. After collecting the nine beads of blood and soul, he immediately flew out. Just like how he entered, he made it out of the formation safely.
However, passing through the formation was an extremely difficult matter for Houston. When he walked out of the formation, the terrifying killing intent that permeated the formation almost made him collapse. His face was pale.
Fairy Haoyue was stern. With a flip of her hand, the Bright Moon Divine Hall appeared. She said, "Enter the divine hall. We need to leave as soon as possible."
Without any hesitation, Jianchen and the others immediately entered the Bright Moon Divine Hall.
Fairy Haoyue stowed the divine hall away and used her Primordial realm laws to erase the presences and traces left behind by Jianchen and the others. She vanished in a flash, making her way out of the castle with lightning speed.
Now, all the formations in the castle had been activated. Countless formations were connected, linking up with one another. As a result, the defences of the castle were truly impregnable.
Fairy Haoyue was cold. Her eyes shone with a sharp light as she radiated with a terrifying presence. Under the layer of moonlight, she directly collided with the formations with the power of Primordial realm laws.
Boom!
With her collision, the entire castle shook violently. Even though the killing formation before her had been fused with many other formations, it was still unable to endure Fairy Haoyue's powerful strike. With a crack, it directly collapsed.
However, Fairy Haoyue did not slow down at all. She radiated with a surging presence as she rampaged through the various formations before her like a hot knife through butter. She quickly retreated from the castle.
Even though the defences of the castle were impregnable, there were no killing formations that could stop Fairy Haoyue apart from the formations that protected the pool of blood.
Even though all the formations in the castle were linked together, making them much more powerful, they were still unable to stop Fairy Haoyue.
At that moment, the headquarters of the Heavenly Demon Religion that many Infinite Primes feared on the Cloud Plane, where they dared not approach at all, was like strolling through her own backyard in Fairy Haoyue's eyes. They were unable to do anything to her at all.
Boom!
At this moment, a heavy sound that basically rang through the entire castle suddenly rang out. Fairy Haoyue formed a seal and used an ability. She struck out with her full strength, piercing through the layers of formations and creating a hole in the castle. Afterwards, she flew out through the hole and vanished.
At the same time, the three vice-leaders of the branch of the Heavenly Demon Religion on the Cloud Plane became bound by shackles condensed from Moonlight Force. They were unable to move at all.
At this moment, the monstrous demonic aura around the three of them began to fluctuate intensely. Immediately, the three of them emitted a furious roar in unison. After using all of their strength, they finally shattered the restraints that were entangled around their bodies. Immediately, their bodies quietly disappeared from this place.
When they appeared again, they had already arrived before the hole that Fairy Haoyue had created. The three of them stared at the hole with ugly expressions. Their faces were extremely sunken.
"This ancient castle is a divine artifact with extremely powerful defense. Only Chaotic Primes can pierce through a divine artifact!"
"Once all the formations in our headquarters are activated, even Ninth Heavenly Layer Infinite Primes won't be able to escape. However, these formations can't stop this person at all. Just who is this Chaotic Prime? "
"Let's go to the forbidden grounds. The Chaotic Prime who broke into our headquarters has been in there for quite some time," said Jian Chen.
With that, the three of them vanished in a single instance. When they reappeared, they had arrived beside the pool of blood, standing outside the formation.
"Fortunately, the formation is fine."
"The great elder personally cast down the formation after all. Even if this person is a Chaotic Prime, they won't be able to get through it."
The three of them all let out a sigh of relief when they saw that the formation was fine.
They could ignore the fact that a Chaotic Prime had broken into their headquarters and killed many of their Divine King's.
They could even ignore the fact that the Chaotic Prime had pierced a hole in the castle.
This was because they only needed to report this matter, and the higher-ups would naturally send people to deal with the Chaotic Prime.
However, they could not allow anything to happen to the blood beads and soul beads in the forbidden grounds.
However, when Huai An instinctively looked towards the bottom of the pool of blood, his face suddenly froze. His face instantly paled while intense disbelief filled his face. He cried out, "The blood droplets … why are the blood droplets gone …"
The other two vice-leaders were shocked when they heard that. They both looked at the pool of blood.
With a single glance, both of their faces instantly turned incomparably pale, and they were almost scared out of their wits.
"Oh no … the soul beads … the soul beads … the soul beads have disappeared as well …"
Yi Huayue's trembling voice rang out.
At that moment, the three vice-leaders of the Heavenly Demon Religion tottered slightly. They almost lost their footing as they became filled with fear.
"What do we do? The blood beads and soul beads have disappeared. W- how do we explain this to the higher-ups …"
