Nie Jingshen carried Yu Ye as he flew, feeling as if his heart was being stabbed by a knife.
He could still vaguely feel the enemies chasing after him. However, Nie Jingshen had no time to care about them. His heart was filled with another matter.
Within his embrace, Yu Ye's beautiful face was filled with densely packed cracks that emitted radiance. Her entire body was the same.
His entire person was like a broken porcelain doll, on the verge of breaking, dying at the last moment of his life.
Her right arm had already been completely severed and vanished.
Slaying a Profound Immortal with the body of a True Immortal. Even if that Profound Immortal was a heretic, Yu Ye had created a legend just like Yan Zhaoge.
However, after forcefully executing the Chaos Extinguishing Origin Scripture with her heavily wounded body, Yu Ye's body finally crumbled.
Her right hand that wielded the sword was only the beginning.
From this point onward, her body was like a porcelain doll that was constantly shattering.
Her body and soul were one, slowly approaching the end of her body and soul perishing.
"Hold on, hold on a little longer … Nothing will happen! Nothing will happen! " Nie Jingshen, who had always been cold and unwavering in front of strong enemies, was like a panicking child at this moment.
"Jingshen … let's go alone …" Yu Ye's gaze turned brighter, no longer as frail as before.
However, her final radiance made Nie Jingshen feel even more heartache.
"Don't say such depressing words!" said Nie Jingshen decisively. He took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.
Rays of sword qi emanated from his body and enveloped Yu Ye in his embrace.
The miraculousness of the Earlier Heaven Nascent Form reappeared. Under Nie Jingshen's envelopment, the shattering of Yu Ye's body gradually calmed down.
Although she was still on the brink of death, she no longer fell into the abyss. The shattering of her body stopped at her right arm.
However, the price for all of this was a huge consumption of Nie Jingshen's energy.
He had just gone through a series of intense battles and was also gravely wounded.
Under such circumstances, he wouldn't be able to sustain himself for long.
Especially when there were still powerful enemies chasing after him!
If he were to fight against them, he wouldn't be able to protect Yu Ye.
"What should I do?"
The question lingered in Nie Jingshen's mind, causing him to feel anxious.
The rolling blood-red lightning and the boundless black fog were like an abyss that devoured his soul, causing him to feel even more despair.
Suddenly, Nie Jingshen broke through the black fog, and rays of golden radiance appeared in front of him.
The golden light was not bright and resplendent. Instead, it was dim, obscure, and ominous.
The cold air caused Nie Jingshen's heart to skip a beat.
He focused his eyes and saw a golden light in front of him. It was clearly the reflection of white bones.
The white bones were as large as a mountain, piled up together. Each bone was like a huge metal shard or a metal pillar, reflecting a dark golden luster at this moment.
The Gengjin Baleful Qi that could slash the heavens and split the earth surged out from within, suffocating everyone. It was as if they were in a sea of blood and mountains of corpses, a battlefield where countless Gods and Buddhas were buried.
The white bones were like a mountain, forming a ring, like a valley.
At the center of the valley, a pool of blood appeared amidst the eerie white bones.
One by one, bubbles floated up from the bloody water and then exploded like boiling lava.
Demonic Qi gushed out from within, terrifying everyone.
"… The Devil of Aged Metal!"
Nie Jingshen was startled and blurted out.
After a short moment of astonishment, he flew into a rage. He looked around at the Demon Domain and roared, "It's you guys playing tricks!"
"No, I'm just happy to see it happen," a voice suddenly resounded.
Nie Jingshen looked above the blood pool and saw rays of dark golden radiance intertwining, forming a person's illusory figure.
Nie Jingshen was no stranger to that face.
It was the incarnation of the previous Devil of Aged Metal, Sword Devil Yin Shiyang.
In the past, he had fallen under the sword of Nie Jingshen's Grand Master, Yan Xintang.
Now, he was still a dead person. It was just that he borrowed the special environment of the Nine Underworlds and the special ritual here to form an illusory figure.
"I'm just waiting for you guys here," the Devil of Aged Metal said calmly.
Nie Jingshen looked at him coldly. Next to the Devil of Aged Metal, the five-colored clouds gathered and formed another projection. It was a thin old man.
"Primordial Heart Devil …" Nie Jingshen's pupils shrunk.
The old man smiled and said, "You should have felt it yourself. What happened to you guys is because of the betrayal of your own people."
Nie Jingshen opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he closed it again.
"That's right. This old man isn't trying to confuse you with words, but your own thoughts." The Primordial Heart Devil smiled calmly, "This old man is busy fighting against the other Grand Heavenly Realm experts, so I'm distracted here. If you weren't so heavily injured, this old man wouldn't have been able to see through the thoughts of the Innate Nascent Form."
"Although you don't know who this person is, only your own people know how to break the sigils you left behind."
The Primordial Heart Devil said, "This is not my doing. It should be said that it's because of the endless thoughts of you living beings that this old man was created."
Nie Jingshen's gaze swept across the two devils and finally landed on the Devil of Aged Metal. He understood, "Your target is me?"
"That's right." The Devil of Aged Metal said, "The physique suitable for me in this era is the grand-disciple of Yan Xintang, who sent me to perish. This entanglement of fate is truly wonderful."
Nie Jingshen stared at him and suddenly attacked!
With a single slash, the illusory figure formed by the Devil of Aged Metal was instantly destroyed by the sword-light.
The Primordial Heart Devil wasn't surprised, "If it weren't for the woman in your arms, you would rather die in battle than join the Nine Underworlds."
"I'm impressed by your determination. I'm even more impressed by the intensity of your baleful aura and hatred."
"Your hatred towards us is as intense as your hatred towards your pursuers. However, the current you isn't capable of making us pay the price."
"Come. First, become stronger and survive. Let this old man see if I'll perish under the swords of my fellow Nine Underworlds Daoists."
"As for the little friend in your arms, you don't have to worry about her. Although she possesses the Chaos Extinguishing Origin Scripture, which might be disadvantageous to the Devil Ancestor, a heavily injured her is far better than a dead one."
Yu Ye's death signified that the other possessors of the Chaos Extinguishing Origin Scripture could begin cultivating this supreme martial art.
The old man's figure gradually faded, "The person behind you is about to arrive."
Above the Blood Pool of the Mountain of Bones, Devilish qi still surged into the skies.
As Nie Jingshen carried Yu Ye, he lowered his head and saw that she was already unconscious.
Although she was protected by Nie Jingshen's sword qi, due to her heavy injuries, his sword qi gradually weakened. Yu Ye was also slowly approaching her end.
The woman's face was filled with spiderweb-like cracks. She no longer possessed any beauty.
However, Nie Jingshen's usually cold gaze was filled with an unprecedented gentleness.
He lightly kissed her forehead.
He advanced forward step by step.
A sky-high baleful aura soared into the skies. The dense mountain of bones was engulfed by a dark-golden radiance.
Zither sounds resounded from afar, as if vengeful spirits were seeking for their lives.
A man carried a woman and slowly disappeared within the blood sea.
In the next moment, countless amounts of blood surged into the skies, as if millions of blood swords were swords!
The blood descended from the skies, turning into a rain of blood. It was as if a devilish domain was weeping.
