Although the Holy Maiden's actions were blasphemous to her ancestors, she was still a member of the Dragon Clan.
If the Holy Maiden won, the Dragon Clan could at least survive. However, if the Ghost General of Hell won, the Dragon Clan would be completely annihilated.
Therefore, the High Priest would rather the Holy Maiden win than see the Ghost General of Hell win.
The Holy Maiden only realized this when she heard the High Priest's reminder. She immediately controlled more than ten energy dragons to encircle the Ghost General of Hell, leaving only a few to protect herself.
Indeed, just as the High Priest had discovered, after the Ghost General of Hell condensed his energy into weapons, the energy shield that covered his body had weakened significantly.
Now that he was facing the encirclement of the energy dragons again, the Ghost General of Hell did not resist them head-on like before. Instead, he relied on his extreme speed to dodge.
The Ghost General of Hell's speed was unimaginably fast. The energy dragons that the Holy Maiden controlled could not keep up with his pace at all.
No matter how the energy dragons tried to encircle him, he was able to easily dodge them. And every time he attacked, he would always be able to kill an energy dragon.
In the blink of an eye, a few energy dragons were destroyed by the Ghost General of Hell, but he was still unharmed.
The most terrifying thing about the energy dragons was their invincibility. Anything that came into contact with them would be annihilated instantly. Therefore, nothing could harm them.
However, the weapons that the Ghost General of Hell created by combining soul and energy completely broke this law. Not only would they not be annihilated after coming into contact with the energy dragons, but they could also cause damage to the energy dragons.
Therefore, the Holy Maiden had no advantage against the Ghost General of Hell.
Seeing her energy dragons being destroyed one by one, the Holy Maiden began to lose her composure.
Suddenly, she bit her finger and used it to sprinkle her blood on the energy dragons as though she was throwing food to her pets.
Seeing this scene from afar, the Azure Dragon could not help but ask the High Priest curiously, "What is she doing?"
The High Priest narrowed his eyes and explained in a serious tone, "This is her Bloodline Sacrifice."
"What is Bloodline Sacrifice?" The Azure Dragon asked curiously.
The High Priest continued, "As the Holy Maiden, she has the purest Dragon Clan bloodline flowing in her body. This bloodline can strengthen the energy of the ancestors.
"After devouring the blood essence of the Saintess, the energy contained in these energy dragons will become even more powerful in a short period of time."
As soon as the High Priestess finished speaking, the energy dragons that were devouring the Saintess' blood essence began to expand, and their auras became even more terrifying.
The Saintess controlled these strengthened energy dragons and once again surrounded the Infernal Ghost General.
These strengthened energy dragons were obviously much faster than before. They were much more ferocious than before, reaching almost ten times the speed of sound.
From an observer's point of view, they could only see countless blurry shadows shuttling back and forth in the entire space, forming a blurry shadow belt.
Even though the speed of the energy dragons had reached such a level, the Infernal Ghost General was still able to deal with them with ease.
In just two minutes, all the energy dragons had been annihilated. Only the Saintess, who was still holding onto the Dragon Essence, was left in a daze.
"I have already said that the Dragon Essence in your hands can't even unleash one-tenth of its power!" The Infernal Ghost General mocked her contemptuously. Then, his figure flashed and disappeared into the distance.
In that one-hundredth of a second, he had instantly traversed a distance of a hundred meters and appeared behind the Saintess as if he had teleported. He raised his axe and slashed at the Saintess at lightning speed.
The Saintess had no time to react, but the Dragon Essence in her hands automatically released energy and formed an energy shield on the surface of the Saintess' body.
This energy shield contained dense energy. Even a full blow from Lin Yun, who was in the third form of the Demon God Core Crystal, could not break it.
Boom!
A dazzling ball of light with a diameter of 300 meters expanded in the entire space. It instantly crushed the ground into powder, and everything around it turned into ashes.
The ball of light lasted for a short second before it suddenly dimmed. It transformed into a mushroom cloud of fire that was hundreds of meters tall and expanded in the entire space.
All the members of the Dragon Clan in the distance looked at the mushroom cloud with ashen faces. Their eyes were filled with horror and despair.
…
At the same time, thousands of miles away.
Everyone had arrived at the Prophet's Hall. Julia was asking the Prophet if there was any way to remove the charm on Yang Zhaochan.
"The charm on her is the Saintess's bloodline ability. Only when the Saintess dies, the charm will disappear automatically. "As soon as the Prophet finished speaking, the charm on Yang Zhaochan disappeared automatically.
Yang Zhaochan instantly regained consciousness and looked around with a blank face.
"Sister! Are you awake? "Julia asked in surprise.
Yang Zhaochan stared at Julia in astonishment. After a while, she asked in surprise, "Sister, is that you?"
"Sister, it's me." Julia immediately stepped forward and held Yang Zhaochan's hand tightly. Then, she hugged her.
On the side, the Prophet said solemnly, "Has the charm been automatically removed? It seems that the Saintess' life is over. The Dijin leader will come soon … "
…
When the mushroom cloud of fire dispersed, a huge pit with a diameter of more than 300 meters was revealed.
The Infernal Ghost General's body, burning with blue flames, was floating above the huge pit like a god. He looked down at the center of the huge pit with cold eyes, at the badly mutilated corpse.
There was no doubt that the badly mutilated corpse was the Saintess's.
When the members of the Dragon Clan saw the Saintess's corpse, they fell into deep despair.
They had seen with their own eyes how powerful the Saintess, who had mastered the Dragon Essence, was.
If even the Saintess, who had mastered the Dragon Essence, could not defeat the Dijin leader, then who else in this underground world could?
The High Priest turned to look at Azure Dragon, Yellow Dragon, and Red Dragon. He said to them with a serious face, "The Saintess is really dead. The Prophet's prediction has come true. Maybe we were all wrong. The Prophet was right from the beginning."
"Now that the Dragon Clan is on the brink of life and death, I'm afraid only the Prophet, who can foresee the future, knows how to save the Dragon Clan. Take everyone to the Prophet!"
"What about you, High Priest?" Azure Dragon asked in astonishment.
The High Priest stood in front of everyone and said righteously, "The enemy will not let us go easily. At this time, someone has to step forward and sacrifice themselves. If I don't go to hell, who will? "
"Lord High Priest …" Azure Dragon, Yellow Dragon, and Red Dragon all looked at the High Priest with admiration.
