Prison of the Heart
The domineering aura emanating from the Inner Demon was so substantial that it was deeply imprinted in Chu Xingyun's eyes. He gritted his teeth, and the dazzling Sword of Wu Ling appeared above his head, spewing out sharp sword light that swept across the entire Void.
"Hmm?"
The sudden attack made Inner Demon's eyes narrow slightly. He waved his black hole heavy sword, and the sword light seemed to annihilate everything. When the terrifying sword light collided, the void produced a muffled sound.
The inner demon's figure flickered and retreated. Chu Xingyun finally had a chance to catch his breath. His eyes were still filled with anger as he shouted at the inner demon, "Don't try to fool me with mere words!"
"My determination to save Liuxiang is very strong. I will not lose to you in any way. However, there is an ancient saying that there are things that a gentleman should do and things that he should not do. I will not be like you who has no bottom line!"
"In order to achieve your goal, you did not hesitate to use any means. You did not hesitate to slaughter thousands of innocent people. If Liuxiang knows about this, she will definitely feel uneasy. When that time comes, how can you let her live happily?"
"Madman, you are simply a madman. What determination? What saving Liu Xiang? These are just excuses for your wanton slaughter!"
Chu Xingyun pointed his halberd at the Heart Demon angrily. As he finished speaking, he swung the Black Hole Heavy Sword in his hand. In an instant, streaks of terrifying black light appeared in the air. The sword slashed down, aiming directly at the Heart Demon's chest.
Seeing Chu Xingyun charging at him furiously, the Inner Demon did not move. He sneered and shook his head. "It seems that you still don't understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, he drew his sword.
With a loud rumble, the sword beams collided once again. Terrifying Sword Will flowed wildly, causing Chu Xingyun to feel a sense of helplessness. On the other hand, Xin Mo held his sword with one hand. His eyes were cold, and beams of demonic light flowed out from his body. He did not seem to be struggling at all.
Such a scene deeply shocked Chu Xingyun's heart. He wanted to continue attacking, but found that the demonic light descended on him like ropes, completely sealing his movements.
"I despise people like you who are benevolent, righteous, and virtuous. The existence of these things is meaningless. They will only make you fearful and obstructive." The Inner Demon gently waved his hand, drowning all the sword light. with light steps, he came to Chu Xingyun again.
The Inner Demon slowly stretched his right hand. Between his fingers, beams of demonic light bloomed, floating above Chu Xingyun's head, and finally condensed into a black cage of demonic light.
The cage fell and enveloped Chu Xingyun's body. Every beam of demonic light contained terrifying power. As soon as it touched Chu Xingyun's body, it invaded his flesh and Spiritual Sea. He let out a roar, and cold sweat seeped out of his forehead.
"I specially prepared this Prison of the Heart for you. Every time you want to escape from here or seize control of your body, the demonic light will sweep out one after another, making you experience a feeling worse than death."
The Inner Demon stood at the other end of the cage. There was no disdain in his eyes, only crazed determination. He said coldly, "Just watch. I will use my own method to trample the Jiuhan Temple under my feet and save Liuxiang unharmed."
"No matter how many people I kill or how many cities I destroy, I will not hesitate!"
After saying this, the Inner Demon slowly withdrew his gaze. With a wave of his hand, the Prison of the Heart in front of him suddenly flashed and turned into a beam of black light, sinking into the black sword mark between his eyebrows.
"Buzz!"
When the pitch-black sword mark stopped swaying, he suddenly opened his eyes. The demonic light was like water ripples, wantonly filling his eyes. The black light that had originally covered the space inside his body gradually faded away, revealing the existence of the 36 souls.
After the fierce battle just now, the Inner Demon still had the absolute upper hand. Moreover, he had imprisoned Chu Xingyun in the Prison of the Heart and regained control of his body.
"Out!"
At this time, Chu Xingyun spat out a cold shout. He opened his mouth and a beam of misty white light swept out from his body. It was like smoke and fog, but it also revealed an extreme aura of light. It was very strange.
If Fan Wujie's soul had consciousness, he would definitely recognize this misty white light. It was because this white light was the Sword Spirit Real Body of the legendary ancient sword.
"Originally, I had planned to slowly devour you after taking care of everything. Yet, unexpectedly, Chu Xingyun, relying on your existence, repeatedly tried to seize back control. It would seem that even the heavens want me to kill you." Chu Xingyun said unhurriedly, but every time he finished speaking, the misty white light would tremble violently.
As the last word fell, the demonic light in Chu Xingyun's eyes intensified. With a slash of his sword, the white light suddenly exploded, turning into pure energy that was absorbed into Chu Xingyun's body.
It was also at this moment that Chu Xingyun's aura soared at an astonishing speed. His spiritual power was like a tidal wave, directly rushing toward the sturdy cultivation barrier, wave after wave, without stopping.
Compared to the tranquility of the inner space, the Divine Firmament Ancient Palace, which was millions of miles away, was filled with discussions. These voices were filled with doubt and ecstasy. They were all different, causing the space to be somewhat chaotic.
The Divine Firmament Ancient Palace stood at the peak of the Spirit Firmament Mountain Range. This palace had existed since the establishment of the Divine Firmament Palace. Its status was extremely high, and only those who were personally summoned by the Palace Master could enter it.
At this time, a group of elders and higher-ups of the Divine Firmament Palace stood in the spacious main hall. Gu Xuanfeng, who was dressed in a purple-gold robe, sat at the head of the main hall. Beside him stood a black-haired youth with an evil face.
This youth was naturally Gu Tianjiao.
Gu Tianjiao's face was also filled with ecstasy. Because of his joy, his face became a little distorted. He looked at Gu Xuanfeng, only to hear Gu Xuanfeng shout coldly, "Silence!"
This voice was mixed with a terrifying power. Once it was spoken, the crowd immediately stopped talking. Their eyes swept over at the same time, and even their breathing slowed down.
"Elder Wu, what you said just now, is it true?" After the main hall was completely silent, Gu Xuanfeng looked at a middle-aged man in a black robe.
This Elder Wu was in charge of all information and had a high status in the Divine Firmament Palace.
He took a few steps forward and knelt down on one knee in front of Gu Xuanfeng. He replied, "Palace Master, the bloody battle between the Wanjian Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect was earth-shattering. Countless people saw it, and I personally investigated it.
"According to what I know, the battle between the Wanjian Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect lasted for a long time, and there were countless casualties on both sides. At the last moment, Luo Yun led a group of experts and killed Fan Wujie and Gu Fanxing at lightning speed. He reaped the benefits and became the final winner."
Elder Wu gave a simple summary of the information. After Gu Xuanfeng heard it, his eyebrows sank slightly. He stood up and paced back and forth, as if he was thinking about something.
Seeing this, Gu Tianjiao, who was beside him, was a little impatient. He could not help but say, "Father, this news is great news for us. As long as we immediately gather our troops and march north to kill Luo Yun, the Ancient Star Sect and Wanjian Pavilion's rich resources will belong to the Divine Firmament Palace."
