The black rain extended like silk as Yi Yun and company traversed through it. They conjured a barrier to isolate themselves from the rain.
The bronze giant had completely disappeared, and the loud sounds of the chains rubbing against each other could no longer be heard. However, in the dead silence of the misty rain, Yi Yun could sense that someone was constantly staring at them. It gave him an ominous feeling.
However, Yi Yun did not see anything despite turning his head several times.
"Yi Yun, I find something amiss," said Yue Yingsha suddenly. She felt a chill inundate her. Furthermore, despite having walked for quite some time, the surrounding scenery did not change much. It was as though they had been walking in circles.
"Granny … Should we continue walking?"
Granny Yin had been leading the way in front of Yue Yingsha. Granny Yin did not respond immediately when Yue Yingsha called out to her. Instead, she walked straight ahead.
"Granny."
Yue Yingsha suddenly felt something amiss. With a flash, she appeared in front of Granny Yin. Yue Yingsha's face turned ghastly pale.
At that moment, Granny Yin's face was shrouded in a thick layer of corpse aura. She looked like she had crawled out of a grave, as though she was about to rot!
Granny Yin's eyes were already deeply sunken. Her wrinkled eyelids were tightly shut, and black blood that looked like it was about to rot flowed out of the slits of her eyes. She could not see Yue Yingsha at all.
However, at that moment, Granny Yin suddenly raised her right hand stiffly. In the middle of Granny Yin's right palm, as well as her neck, there were two eyes that did not belong to Granny Yin. The eyes had a tinge of green in them. They blinked as they stared at Yue Yingsha, as though they were staring at a delicious prey!
"Ah!"
The strange scene made Yue Yingsha let out a scream. Granny Yin was the person closest to her, but now, she had suddenly turned into a stranger. The horror she experienced was ten times more impactful than any ordinary danger she faced!
"Be careful!"
Yi Yun immediately drew his pure Yang broken sword and stood beside Yue Yingsha. The two additional eyes on Granny Yin's body left Yi Yun's scalp tingling.
But at that moment, Yi Yun was at a complete loss. The eyes seemed to be attempting to occupy or devour Granny Yin's body.
What should he do? Brandish his sword?
Yi Yun did not know if he could slash out the eyes on Granny Yin's body, but Granny Yin herself was probably doomed!
"Granny is still alive. I can feel granny's breath, even though it's very weak."
Yue Yingsha said with a trembling voice. She could vaguely guess that once the eye completed its devouring, it would probably become even more difficult to deal with. However, she was unable to slay Granny Yin with a single strike.
"Although Senior Yin is alive, there's nothing we can do. That eye can even devour Granny Yin, so devouring the two of us would be no problem at all. If we don't take action, there will be no more chances."
Yi Yun was only stating the facts. He had absolutely no intention of attacking Granny Yin. Once Granny Yin was dead, their strength would be greatly reduced.
Just as Yue Yingsha was in a state of indecision, a scene suddenly unfolded. It made Yue Yingsha feel like she had fallen into an icy abyss. She saw pairs of green eyes lighting up in the distant misty rain.
These eyes were even bigger than the ones she had seen before. There were more than a hundred pairs of green eyes! The largest pair was situated at the highest point. It was the size of a lantern and its eyes exuded a cold gaze as it overlooked Yi Yun and Yue Yingsha.
Desperate situation!
Yi Yun's heart nearly stopped beating. With more than a hundred pairs of terrifying eyes suddenly appearing, with each pair capable of devouring an expert like Granny Yin, what chance did he and Yue Yingsha have of surviving?
The God Advent Tower could no longer be used. With just the two sword Qi left behind by Azure Yang Lord, Yi Yun believed that he could not last more than ten seconds. A single sword Qi could probably only destroy one or two pairs of eyes! Was there any chance of survival?
"Pa! Pa! Pa! "
Even more eyes appeared, forming into a cluster amidst the rain!
Finally, a few pairs of eyes moved. They shot down like arrows that had been released from a bow. They were the first to shoot at Yue Yingsha!
At that moment, Yi Yun finally saw clearly that the eyes were blobs of black shadows. Their bodies were a blur, leaving only a pair of eyes visible. The eyes were filled with a faint black color as they emitted a ghostly green glow.
The black shadows were so fast that Yue Yingsha had no way of dodging them. The black shadows had already arrived in front of her!
With her life hanging by a thread, Yue Yingsha let out a scream as she fell backwards. And at that moment, a resplendent rainbow light suddenly bloomed from Yue Yingsha's chest!
"Cha! Cha!
Cha! "The rainbow light was like an indestructible sharp sword. Wherever it passed, the black shadows would let out wails that sounded like ferocious ghosts. Many of the black shadows were directly penetrated by the rainbow light!
"Peng!"
Yue Yingsha slammed heavily to the ground as a portrait fell out of Yue Yingsha's chest.
The portrait was extremely ancient and it was filled with the aura of time. The rainbow light from before had been emitted by it!
The portrait prevented the countless shadows from approaching it. Not only that, even the black shadow that had entered Granny Yin's body was in a state of panic.
"This is …"
Yi Yun looked at the portrait in astonishment. The portrait rolled on the grass, but despite the black rain pouring down from the sky, it did not touch the portrait at all.
As the portrait rolled, it slowly opened up. On it was a woman. She had a slender figure and a slender waist. She wore a long black dress and in the middle of her eyebrows was a bright lotus flower mark with a total of nine petals.
Although it was a portrait, Yi Yun could sense that the black dress was fluttering in the wind. The red lotus mark seemed to be reflected in his mind. This extraordinary woman was untainted by the mortal world. She was like a fairy from the nine heavens that had descended to the mortal world.
It's her!
Yi Yun took a deep breath. Back in the Primordial Empyrean Heaven, when Yi Yun gained insight into the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence, he had seen two shadows hidden in the Purple Crystal. One of them was the spear-wielding man, while the other was this woman. She held a nine-petaled red lotus in her hand, leaving a deep impression on Yi Yun.
Yi Yun had once suspected that the spear-wielding man and the red lotus woman were the previous owners of the Purple Crystal.
Was it the previous owner of the Purple Crystal who created the Door to the 33 Skies and planted the divine tree that suppressed the world in the Azure Wood Great World?
This thought flashed in Yi Yun's mind. And at that moment, the rainbow light in the portrait slowly dimmed. It was as though the divine light from before had coincidentally shot out the moment the portrait opened up.
Once the seven-colored light dimmed, the black shadows floating in the air began to move again!
"It's the Sacred Ancestor's portrait!"
Yue Yingsha, who had fallen to the ground, rolled and grabbed the portrait.
She knew that there was an incredible power sealed within the portrait. It was the power of the Sacred Ancestor. This scene proved that the evil demons of the 33 Skies were extremely afraid of this power.
However, Yue Yingsha knew very well that she was unable to awaken the power within the scroll. In the past, she had attempted countless times, but be it the divine tree or the portrait, they did not respond to her calls.
"Sacred Ancestor, please allow me to borrow your strength, even if it's just a billionth of it …"
