"Roar!"
The Blood Soul's threatening words were met with an angry roar from the red-haired head.
Its long red hair stood on end, and it spat out chopstick-sized 'snakes' at the Blood Soul.
The so-called 'little snake' was formed from thin strands of evil energy. Similar to this thing, Gu Zheng had seen the evil energy 'bee' released by the skeletal sphere in the Heavenly Snail Grotto's treasure trove.
The 'little snake' rushed towards the blood soul like a meteor. Wherever it passed, the seawater would churn. Just from the power it emitted, its strength was no longer comparable to the 'bees' in the Heavenly Snail Cave.
"You're courting death!"
The Blood Soul had lost his patience. He raised the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch and aimed the mouth of the conch at the incoming 'snakes'.
A huge suction force came from the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch, causing the seawater to form a huge whirlpool.
Faced with the suction force, the 'snakes' exploded, turning into thin strands of evil energy to avoid being sucked in by the whirlpool.
The huge suction force was effective against shapeshifted evil energy, but it had no effect on scattered evil energy. The Blood Soul had no doubt that when the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch stopped its suction force, the scattered evil energy would once again condense into 'snakes' and attack him.
Although the red-haired head was afraid of the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch, it still charged towards the Blood Soul when the 'snakes' turned into thin strands of evil energy.
The red-haired head's attack was very simple, and this had to do with its lack of intelligence. Even so, its simple attack was still shockingly powerful! The suction force that created the huge whirlpool was knocked back into the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch by the red-haired head. The Blood Soul was also shaken by the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch and hit the stone wall. A trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
Without waiting for the Blood Soul to adjust the vibration of the immortal energy in his body, the reformed 'snakes' shot towards him again, aiming for his orifices, as if trying to burrow into his body. Meanwhile, the red-haired head followed behind the 'little snakes' and charged at him again.
"You're courting death!"
The blood soul was truly enraged. He finally used the divine ability of the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch to deal with the red-haired head.
The Nine-Colored Illusionary Sonic Conch shone brightly. A thick red light shot out from the mouth of the conch and hit the red-haired man's head.
"Roar!"
The red-haired head cried out in alarm. As for those 'little snakes' that were originally very close to the blood soul, it was as if they had seen their nemesis. They once again transformed into Evil Qi and fled.
"No one can escape!"
The Blood Soul roared. No matter if it was the struggling red-haired head or the rampant 'little snake', he would not let any of them go.
Following the roar of the blood soul, the red ray of light started to spin, and the threads of evil energy that had disappeared were sucked out again. They turned into small snakes and entered the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch through the red ray of light.
As for the red-haired head, it was struggling with all its might against the light, but it wasn't very effective. Its hair began to fall off bit by bit, just like the other 'little snakes'. In the end, it was sucked into the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch through the red light.
"Wu Ao!"
The red-haired head let out an unprecedented roar. Its eyes opened and closed, and two gray rays of light shot towards the blood soul.
Everything happened too quickly. The blood soul had no time to dodge. In this moment of crisis, he could only give up on the red-haired head. Instead, he turned to self-defense.
"Bang!"
Two beams of light shot onto the Blood Soul's Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch and sent him flying again.
"Pu!"
After being sent flying twice in a row and using the divine ability of the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Conch to deal with the red-haired head, Blood Soul couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
However, although the Blood Soul was injured, the red-haired man's head was also injured. When he released the light beam, the absorption of the red light beam was no longer limited to his hair. Even some of his scalp and skin were torn off. But in the next moment, the red-haired head suddenly disappeared.
"Back in the day, Boundless Sea beat you into submission and then let you escape. You wretched rat that only knows how to hide!"
The Blood Soul was really infuriated by the red-haired head. He wished he could chop the red-haired head into minced meat. However, the red-haired head had hidden itself. No matter how much he cursed, the red-haired head just wouldn't come out.
The disappearance of the red-haired head wasn't a good thing. It made the blood soul unable to focus on refining the evil source. Who knew when that damned red-haired head would come out and cause trouble?
"You think that if you don't come out, I won't be able to get the evil source? You think too much! "
"Let me tell you, after my internal injuries are stabilized, I'll take the evil source away. I won't stay here to absorb and refine it. Even though taking away the evil source will take more time than refining it, at least I won't have to worry about a worm like you causing trouble!"
The blood soul rested while cursing the red-haired head in his heart. This red-haired head had successfully made him feel depressed.
At the same time, the angry corpse demon ancestor finally appeared in front of Old Demon Bloodthirsty and Smiling Evil Monk.
"How did you get here?"
Old Demon Bloodthirsty cried out. He was very surprised that the corpse demon ancestor would actually appear. After all, they had prepared a huge surprise for the people who were about to come here on the path that they had to pass through!
"He probably didn't take the path of the righteous path, but the same path as us. What a mistake!" Smiling Evil Monk clenched his teeth.
There were a total of two paths that led to the core of the forbidden zone. One was the relatively safe shortcut Gu Zheng's group had taken. The other was the relatively dangerous longer path Blood Soul's group had taken.
Regardless of whether it was the shortcut or the long path, after passing through two different labyrinths, they would converge and become a path that led to the stone room where the evil source was.
The surprise Blood Soul's group had prepared for the righteous path was the exit of the labyrinth on the safe path. They didn't think that someone would actually come here by following the path they had taken. After all, when they entered the long path, they had already sealed the entrance. It was impossible to see anything from the outside.
"How did I get here? I have to thank Blood Soul's hair for this! It was his hair that showed me the path of revenge! "
Corpse Demon Ancestor roared with bloodshot eyes and accelerated toward Smiling Evil Monk and Old Demon Bloodthirsty.
Looking at the crazed Corpse Demon Ancestor, Smiling Evil Monk and Old Demon Bloodthirsty's hearts trembled.
Smiling Evil Monk and Old Demon Bloodthirsty both knew how powerful Corpse Demon Ancestor was. Not to mention the troublesome refined corpse by his side, just his top-grade immortal tool, Myriad Ghost Banner, was not an immortal tool that ordinary cultivators at the peak of the Void Return Stage could resist. Moreover, Smiling Evil Monk's cultivation base was at the peak of the Void Return Stage, while Old Demon Bloodthirsty's cultivation base was only at the late Void Return Stage.
Although their hearts were trembling, Smiling Evil Monk and Old Demon Bloodthirsty still took the initiative to attack Corpse Demon Ancestor. One of them shot out an ice dragon, while the other released a poisonous gas that could corrode the immortal body of a cultivator at the peak of the Void Return Stage.
"You don't know the meaning of death!"
Corpse Demon Ancestor roared and waved the Myriad Ghost Banner in his hand. First, a cold wind blew away the poisonous gas, then blew the ice dragon into the wall of the cave. Immediately afterward, tens of thousands of ghosts flew out from the Myriad Ghost Banner and formed a huge skull in the air. It opened its mouth wide and bit toward Old Demon Bloodthirsty and Smiling Evil Monk.
Old Demon Bloodthirsty and Smiling Evil Monk complained incessantly. There was already a gap between their combat strength and Corpse Demon Ancestor's. Moreover, they were in a narrow passageway. This made it very difficult for them to dodge.
"Die!"
Almost immediately after the huge skull, Old Demon Bloodthirsty shot out another roaring ice dragon.
"Ah!"
Old Demon Bloodthirsty screamed. He tried to dodge several times, but he still couldn't avoid the huge skull's attack. He was swallowed into the skull's mouth.
Old Demon Bloodthirsty only stayed in the skull's mouth for a second before he was spat out. However, when the huge skull spat him out, all that was left of him was a skeleton.
Smiling Evil Monk's ice dragon was smashed into pieces by Corpse Demon Ancestor's ice dragon. Just as he was about to use another immortal technique, he was bitten from behind by the huge skull.
"Ah …"
A miserable scream came from the huge skull's mouth. When the huge skull spat out the Smiling Evil Monk, he was also turned into a skeleton. His treatment didn't change just because his cultivation base was higher.
The Smiling Evil Monk, who was at the peak of the Return to Void Stage, and Old Demon Bloodthirsty, who was at the Return to Void Stage Late Stage, didn't even last a minute in the hands of Corpse Demon Ancestor. The reason why Corpse Demon Ancestor was able to kill the two of them so quickly was not only because he was strong enough, but also because the terrain here was advantageous to him.
Without stopping, Corpse Demon Ancestor rushed into the stone room where Blood Soul was with the Myriad Ghost Banner in hand.
"Ah!"
Blood Soul, who hadn't fully recovered, had no choice but to stand up when Corpse Demon Ancestor entered.
"Blood Soul!"
Corpse Demon Ancestor roared. Without saying anything, he waved the Myriad Ghost Banner and shot a gust of chilly wind at Blood Soul.
The Blood Soul's figure flashed and disappeared. When he reappeared, he opened his mouth to speak.
"Corpse Demon, you can't blame me. After all, you were the one who schemed against me first. I really didn't plan to scheme against you when we were outside the cave!" Blood Soul said.
"Bullsh * t!"
The furious Corpse Demon Ancestor didn't want to say anything and continued to attack Blood Soul.
Blood Soul only dodged and didn't fight back against Corpse Demon Ancestor's attacks. "Forget it, let's not talk about what happened before! I'll talk about what happened now. There's something nurtured in the evil source, and it's hiding here right now. Its strength is much stronger than an ordinary cultivator at the peak of the Return to Void Stage! We can't fight here, or else it'll reap the benefits! "
"Bullsh * t!"
Corpse Demon Ancestor still swore at Blood Soul. Regardless of whether Blood Soul was telling the truth or not, he just wanted to kill Blood Soul right now.
"You're a mad dog!"
Blood Soul was still injured by Corpse Demon Ancestor's refined corpse after dodging all the time. He was furious and wanted to kill Corpse Demon Ancestor.
"Since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish!"
Blood Soul didn't choose to dodge the chilly wind again. After a flash of light, the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell froze the chilly wind in the air. At the same time, Blood Soul raised his sword and slashed at Corpse Demon Ancestor. Corpse Demon Ancestor, on the other hand, pushed out a palm at him.
Bam!
The sword and palm collided, creating a loud sound.
The two cultivators at the pinnacle of the Return to Void Stage both wanted to kill the other as soon as possible. Without saying anything more, they began to fight fiercely with clanging sounds.
Meanwhile.
The surprise Blood Soul prepared for Gu Zheng was an immortal formation. This immortal formation was very similar to the one on Black Dragon Island, but it wasn't exactly the same.
The killing move of the immortal formation on Black Dragon Island was set up by the Blood Soul using the corpse of the lizard. This time, the killing move of the immortal formation was set up by the Blood Soul using the monsters he had painstakingly killed in the core passage.
Comparing the two immortal formations, the immortal formation at the exit of the maze was more difficult to deal with than the one on Black Dragon Island in terms of power and difficulty.
The ground was littered with the corpses of all kinds of demonic creatures, almost forming a small mountain. Most of the members of the alliance of the orthodox sects were sitting on the ground, panting heavily. Gu Zheng, on the other hand, was flying in the air, breaking the formation according to the guidance of the artifact spirit.
If it was only the demonic creatures that were difficult to deal with, a peak Return to Void Stage cultivator like Sora wouldn't be so tired. The main reason was that as they got closer to the source of evil, the evil Qi in the water became more and more powerful! Originally, the evil Qi could be resisted by the immortal power shield, but now it was so powerful that it could destroy the immortal power shield.
At all times, they had to be on guard against the evil Qi that might break through the shield and enter their bodies. Naturally, the strength of the cultivators decreased because of this.
"We haven't even seen the source of evil yet, but the evil Qi is already so powerful. I'm really afraid that we won't be able to withstand it!" Master Yu Feng said worriedly.
"Even late-stage Void Stage cultivators won't be able to withstand it. Even we will be in danger!" Sora said.
"I didn't expect that we wouldn't be able to withstand the evil Qi before even seeing the source of evil."
Yu Yangzi laughed bitterly, then looked at Gu Zheng in the air. "Perhaps only Sect Leader Gu can withstand it!"
Because Gu Zheng had the Fire-Avoiding Crown, this level of evil Qi couldn't pose a threat to his body's surface defense.
"Sect Leader Gu can withstand it, but we can't let him go alone!"
Xuan Qizi gritted his teeth. At this moment, his heart was burning with anxiety. Putting aside the problem of whether they could withstand it or not, they had been delayed by this immortal formation for so long. He really didn't know whether the source of evil had been refined by the blood soul or not.
"Crack!"
A thunderous sound came from the sky, and everyone's vision changed. They had escaped from the immortal formation.
"Sect Leader Gu, what do you think we should do now?"
The person who could withstand it the most should be Gu Zheng, and Master Yu Feng wanted to hear his opinion.
"I think Fellow Daoist Yu Yangzi, Grand Elder Nangong, and Nun Xiao Jue, you should either follow us for a while longer, or leave this place now!" Gu Zheng laughed bitterly.
"Let's follow them for a while longer!"
Nangong Xiaofeng smiled bitterly. In his opinion, even if he died in the hands of the enemy, it would be more comfortable than having to stop like this.
"We also want to follow them for a while longer!"
Yu Yangzi and Nun Xiao Jue spoke at the same time.
In fact, everyone understood that there was no one who was afraid of death after entering the Blood Tide Forbidden Area. However, this was a matter of life and death after all. They had to choose for themselves how to proceed.
"Alright, since that's the case, let's go!" Master Yu Feng said.
Everyone didn't say anything more and sped up their journey.
"Angry man, don't follow us anymore. Leave the Blood Tide Forbidden Area and see the situation on the surface of the sea. If there's anything you can help with, please help!"
Gu Zheng transmitted his voice to the angry man beside him.
"Master, let me follow you!" The angry man said worriedly.
"No need, you can leave now!"
Gu Zheng's voice was unquestionable. The angry man did not dare to say anything else and obediently left.
They would soon reach the real core. Gu Zheng was worried that the angry man's inner core would have some problems in that unusual place, so it was better to let him leave.
At the end of the long passage, there was a light flickering slightly. The thin threads of evil qi in the water had already become dense to the point where they could be seen with the naked eye. They were like countless floating dust.
"No, there's no way to continue."
Yu Yangzi laughed bitterly. In this place, the power of the thin threads of evil qi had increased by another level! The increase in its power meant that the power of the immortal energy protection had decreased. Under such circumstances, the late Void Return stage cultivators were no longer suitable to fight with people in this place.
"The three of you will stay here for the time being!"
Master Yu Feng said hurriedly, hinting for those who could still withstand to continue forward.
"Fellow Daoists, be careful. We must survive!"
Behind the crowd, Yu Yangzi shouted.
After walking forward for a while, everyone saw two piles of white bones.
"Good omen!"
Master Yu Yangzi said, and everyone's eyes lit up.
Although it was only two piles of white bones, they had died not long ago. Their bones still had the aura of Old Demon Bloodthirsty and Smiling Evil Monk. Moreover, for them to be killed in this way, everyone thought of Corpse Devil Ancestor.
"Two Devil Dao forces are scheming against each other. The death of Old Demon Bloodthirsty and Smiling Evil Monk is very likely due to Corpse Devil Ancestor's revenge. I hope we can reap the benefits without doing anything!"
Master Yu Feng smiled. Everyone's speed increased as much as possible.
"You damned bastards!"
Sensing the approach of the righteous path alliance, Blood Soul, who was meditating, stood up.
Corpse Devil Ancestor was already dead. His corpse was used as a stool by Blood Soul, and Blood Soul was currently standing on the stool.
Although he had killed Corpse Devil Ancestor, Blood Soul had also paid a heavy price. Compared to his peak, his strength had decreased by at least thirty percent.
"You want to come in? Not so easy! "
With a cold smile, Blood Soul's Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell flashed. The entrance of the stone room was instantly covered by a layer of restriction. This restriction was very difficult to break. It was the same as the restriction he had used to trap Corpse Devil Ancestor.
However, the restriction at the entrance of the stone room was indeed not set by Blood Soul. The one who had set it was the previous owner of the Nine-Colored Illusion Sonic Shell, Boundless Sea. As for the restriction later on, it was set by Blood Soul to prevent Corpse Devil Ancestor and the others from entering before the righteous path alliance's people arrived.
"Is it true that Man proposes, and God disposes?"
After setting up the restriction, Blood Soul began to walk toward the high platform where the evil source was.
