Chapter 428: Action (Two-in-One)

In just an instant.

Su Zhe and the other two Soul Race experts were all stunned.

Such a terrifying strike, enough to easily annihilate many veteran Soul Transformation powerhouses, was forcefully crushed by Little Nannan's fist.

"I underestimated you!"

The woman whispered; she was the Moon Soul Envoy of the Saint Advent Society. Behind her, a sea of blood churned, and a blood-red moon rose.

Countless vengeful souls with soaring resentment roared and shrieked within the Soul Sea.

Waves of sound made one's head spin.

The Divine Soul felt as if it were being torn apart.

In the distance.

Some Prodigies hiding to watch the battle instantly became dazed, as if they had lost their souls, and fell straight to the ground.

"Be careful, this is a Divine Soul attack, don't fall for it!"

Lin Yan's expression changed slightly as he spoke to warn them.

However.

Little Nannan was fearless. Her black hair fluttered, her whole body emitted golden light, and a massive vortex behind her obscured the sky, rotating gloomily.

Rumbled!

In an instant.

Everything between heaven and earth was swept backward.

Spiritual Qi, Formation patterns, and runes, including the Soul Race Divine Abilities released by several people, were all swallowed by that massive vortex.

She directly met the Star Soul Envoy, Su Zhe.

A head-on clash.

Every punch seemed to contain the mighty power of a world, heavy as Mount Tai, directly shattering the Void Realm.

Meanwhile, the vortex behind her constantly absorbed the Soul Power released by Su Zhe to replenish itself. She grew stronger as she fought, like a god of war, forcing Su Zhe to retreat step by step in just a short moment.

"This brat, what kind of monster is she?"

Su Zhe gnashed his teeth, his eyes full of anger and horror.

The little girl in front of him was too abnormal.

Whether it was her Physical Body, Divine Soul, or magic power, everything was perfect, without any flaws.

His current soul body, although much weakened because many split souls had been destroyed.

Still possessed the terrifying combat power of the Late Stage of Soul Transformation.

He thought that dealing with a little girl who had just broken through to Soul Transformation, no matter how much of a Prodigy she was, he should at least be able to suppress her, right?

After all, once cultivation reached the Soul Transformation Realm, the gap between each minor Realm was incalculable.

The most monstrous Prodigy they had ever seen.

Being able to use an Early Stage Soul Transformation cultivation to hard-clash with a Middle Stage and remain undefeated for a short time was already extremely rare.

After all, every minor Realm could mean hundreds or thousands of years of foundation and accumulation.

However.

Little Nannan was clearly an exception.

Her accumulation was too profound. After Soul Transformation, because of her long-term accumulation, she completed a transformation.

The Heaven-Usurping Creation Art she created, after completing the Soul Transformation chapter, had reached an unprecedented new height.

If an ordinary person just broke through to Soul Transformation, their combat power would at most increase by a dozen times, but for Little Nannan, it was far more than that.

At the same time.

Lin Yan also flew forward to meet the Sun Soul Envoy among the three Soul Race members. His whole body was ablaze as he stepped on an endless sea of fire. With a light wave of his hand, a sheet of golden Pure World Immortal Flame fell from the sky like a meteor shower.

Each one carried the power to destroy heaven and earth.

They smashed into the Soul Sea, causing it to churn.

Countless remnant souls struggled and roared, but to no avail, instantly evaporated by the terrifying high temperature.

"Damn it, this boy's Cultivation Technique perfectly counters our Divine Abilities! Someone help me!"

The Sun Soul Envoy roared, the pressure was at its limit.

However, who could come to help him?

On the other side, the Moon Soul Envoy had already engaged with Dugu Qianxue.

Dugu Qianxue waved her slender wrist, and terrifying Great Yin Lunar Radiance instantly poured down, as if freezing time and space.

Her movements were slow and gentle, without much killing intent.

But every gesture was filled with a despairing coldness.

Large areas of the Soul Sea were frozen.

Even the blood moon behind the Moon Soul Envoy could no longer rotate. Runes shattered one by one, and it looked like she was about to be completely defeated.

In an instant.

Su Zhe and the others' hearts sank to the bottom.

What they thought was a certain ambush.

Now felt like the three of them had thrown themselves into a dead end.

"Damn it… If our split souls hadn't been destroyed so much, making us too weak, it wouldn't have come to this!" the Moon Soul Envoy roared, very unwilling.

Star Soul Envoy Su Zhe didn't speak, but he knew very well in his heart.

So far.

Lin Yan and the other two had not used their full strength.

Even if everything had gone according to their original plan and all split souls could have fused together, it would probably still be difficult to kill them easily; it was destined to be a fierce battle.

This mission was miscalculated.

They thought the targets were just a group of juniors after all. No matter how much of a Prodigy they were, they were still juniors.

However, facts proved that there are always some people in this world who cannot be viewed with common sense.

Lin Yan and the others' growth speed was too startling.

How long had it been since they entered the Heavenly Ruins?

"Don't hesitate anymore, start the Blood Sacrifice!"

Su Zhe shouted. The Sun Soul Envoy, holding a dragon-headed cane, formed hand seals. Boundless Soul Power turned into a vast ocean, covering the sky.

Rumbled.

The next moment.

The sky here collapsed.

An even more massive Formation hidden beneath the Void Realm was revealed. This Formation was blood-red, every Formation pattern seemingly drawn with the blood of living people. Instantly, Evil Qi soared to the sky, making one's heart tremble.

"This is…" Xiao Wanmeng's pupils constricted, a bad premonition rising in her heart.

"Sister Wanmeng, look!" Little Nannan suddenly pointed into the distance. Everyone looked and saw a rift suddenly tear open, followed by a large number of figures.

Those people all seemed to be unconscious, rolling out of the rift like stones, piling up like a mountain and crashing onto the blood-colored Formation patterns.

In an instant.

The Formation patterns were lit up.

Streaks of crimson blood light were extracted from their bodies. Their faces began to age, their hair turned gray, and their skin shriveled, appearing as if all their life essence had been sucked away.

The Formation began to rotate, its boundless aura blotting out the sun.

Su Zhe and the others' auras were also climbing crazily.

In the blink of an eye.

They reached the level of the Peak of Soul Transformation.

"Those are the Prodigies of the various Sects?"

Lin Yan's pupils shrank as he recognized the origins of some people. They were all young people participating in this Prodigy Assembly, numbering in the hundreds.

These Soul Race members had somehow made a move on these people.

And now, they were directly using them as Materials for the Blood Sacrifice!

"What audacity!" Xiao Wanmeng's beautiful eyes were filled with Evil Qi. The Soul Race was too arrogant. This was a blatant provocation. Did they really think the Human Race had no one?

Su Zhe and the others' combat power soared.

Lin Yan and the others naturally felt the pressure increase manifold.

They wanted to interrupt the Blood Sacrifice Formation.

But they couldn't pull themselves away at all.

Seeing the Blood Sacrifice Formation becoming more complete, those Prodigies' life essence was being swallowed at a visible rate.

A sense of urgency arose in everyone's hearts.

At the same time.

Ye Mo, hiding in the shadows, clenched his fists upon seeing this scene.

"As Senior Great Love Immortal Venerable said, the Saint Advent Society is not a good thing!" Ye Mo muttered to himself, his face showing disgust, and his heart was even more complicated.

The Absolute Beginning Holy Land colluding with such an existence.

It truly caused the filter he previously had for the Holy Land to completely shatter.

Fortunately.

He had not grown up in the Holy Land since childhood.

He had seen the wickedness of the human heart and experienced the complexities of the world since he was young.

So, there was no feeling of the sky falling.

The only things he felt were regret and a sigh.

He slowly rubbed his wrists.

Preparing to take action.

Just then.

His pupils constricted as he saw a familiar figure within the distant Blood Sacrifice Formation.

"Junior Sister Ouyang!"

He really didn't expect to see Ouyang Qingxuan in such a place.

A few months ago.

She had been invited by him to go to the North Sea to investigate the background and reputation of the Young Lord of the Wang Family.

Later, he had no chance to see her.

He spent almost all day in the Holy Land, either playing games or cultivating.

That's right.

Ouyang Qingxuan's talent was not weak to begin with, and with the resources he had given her, getting a spot in the Prodigy Assembly was naturally very normal.

"Stop!"

Ye Mo shouted angrily, his figure appearing, the Nine Heavens phenomenon revealing itself around him with a terrifying momentum.

Seeing this.

Lin Yan, Dugu Qianxue, and the others all frowned, their expressions turning solemn. This aura was quite strong.

Enough to pose a threat to them.

"Saint…" Su Zhe was stunned to see Ye Mo and frowned, "Why have you come out now?"

According to their original plan, Ye Mo should be hiding in the shadows, waiting for the critical moment to strike and hit the mark in one blow.

Now, it was clearly not that time yet.

Ye Mo didn't speak, but his brow was filled with anger. The sky behind him rolled back, turning into a phantom of a Heavenly Emperor, which crashed down a fist.

Rumbled!

Instantly, the ground shook and the mountains swayed. Countless mountain Peaks collapsed, and the ground exploded, creating numerous cracks thousands of feet long.

And that Blood Sacrifice Formation also vibrated violently under this punch.

"Ye Mo, what are you doing?" Su Zhe's pupils shrank, and he roared in shock and anger.

Not following the plan was one thing, but he was actually attacking his own people?

Ye Mo said nothing.

Just one punch after another.

Ouyang Qingxuan was his friend.

Back then, she had even saved his life.

How could Ye Mo allow these people from the Saint Advent Society to sacrifice her?

And… even if it had nothing to do with Ouyang Qingxuan.

The Saint Advent Society's practice of sacrificing a large number of innocent people was something Ye Mo extremely despised, and he was unwilling to be associated with them.

They were destined not to be on the same path.

At the same time.

Seeing Ye Mo attack the Blood Sacrifice Formation, Lin Yan and the others were slightly stunned, then realized something. They no longer hesitated and went all out, keeping Su Zhe and the others tied down.

Rumbled!

Ye Mo gave his all, and in just a few breaths.

The Blood Sacrifice Formation collapsed.

Su Zhe and the other two couldn't maintain it at all, retreating repeatedly, their auras declining.

And those who were originally chosen for the Blood Sacrifice fell one after another, their life or death unknown.

Swoosh!

Ye Mo's figure flashed, arriving beside Ouyang Qingxuan and catching her. After an investigation, he confirmed she was not yet dead and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He figured the Saint Advent Society intended to perform a live sacrifice, which was why they hadn't killed these offerings.

"Ye Mo, do you have any idea what you're doing?"

The Blood Sacrifice Formation was connected to the vital energy of Su Zhe and the other two.

With the Formation broken.

They immediately withered, not even their initial strength remained, becoming extremely weak.

Ye Mo found a quiet place and laid Ouyang Qingxuan down.

Then he slowly raised his head: "I know very well!"

Su Zhe's eyes were venomous, with a hint of irony: "The Absolute Beginning Holy Land actually chose a traitor like you to be their Saint! Simply foolish!"

"There indeed are traitors in the Holy Land, but it's not me!"

Ye Mo took a deep breath, his eyes growing brighter: "I am of the Human Race. You people are sacrificing my fellow tribesmen and friends right in front of me, and you still expect me to collude with you… I, Ye, may not be a good person!

But being a beast… is something I cannot do!"

Su Zhe coughed twice and questioned: "Have you thought about the consequences of doing this?"

"No need to consider!" Ye Mo said frankly: "Any consequence, I am willing to bear!"

"The Absolute Beginning Holy Land is rotten to the core from top to bottom, yet I didn't expect the current Saint to have such an upright character!" Dugu Qianxue looked at Ye Mo and couldn't help but praise.

Ye Mo glanced at her and shook his head with a bitter smile.

His heart was still complicated.

After all, no matter what, the Absolute Beginning Holy Land's cultivation of him was real.

Jiang Baiyi also seriously taught him Dao techniques and Divine Abilities.

Now, this action of his was probably destined to carry the infamy of being ungrateful.

However.

With his character, since he had made the decision and taken action, he would not regret it.

He also knew that if given another chance, he would still choose this way.

"Alright, let's talk later. Let's finish off these Soul Race members first!" Lin Yan shouted, going all out. The sea of fire filled the sky, and the Pure World Immortal Flame was like a great sun smashing down from the heavens.

The others also no longer held back.

Instantly, the place was filled with brilliant light, extremely dazzling, as runes and dao rhythms collided and shattered.

Patches of the Soul Sea evaporated and were destroyed.

The aura of destruction spread out, and within a radius of hundreds of miles, no one dared to approach even a step.

Soon.

Su Zhe and the others were defeated.

Their Soul Power was constantly weakened, becoming more and more feeble, difficult to sustain, and their soul bodies grew dim as if they would disappear at any moment.

"Heh… hehe…"

Su Zhe coughed violently, staring at the group with a mocking expression, "Good, quite a group of Human Race Prodigies. If we hadn't prepared sufficiently, we might have really met our end here today!"

"Unfortunately, you are destined to be happy for nothing!"

"…"

Hearing this.

The group frowned. Even at this point, this Soul Race member still dared to talk big?

For some reason.

A bad premonition suddenly welled up in their hearts.

"Desolate Heaven Marquis, it's time for you to make your move~"

Su Zhe roared to the sky, his voice echoing across the empty wasteland.

Rumbled!

Following his words.

The Void Realm split open, revealing a gateway.

A tall figure clad in bronze battle armor with a handsome face slowly walked out.

In an instant.

The entire world became dim and lusterless.

Lin Yan, Ye Mo, and the others all turned solemn, staring fixedly at that figure, feeling an unprecedented sense of danger.

"So strong…"

With just one glance, even the usually fearless Little Nannan frowned.

"Take a fire lotus from me first!" Lin Yan said nothing more and formed a huge fire lotus, tossing it over to test the opponent's strength.

Unexpectedly.

Shi Huang's expression was calm. He just glanced lightly, and the fire lotus spontaneously disintegrated in the Void Realm.

Seeing this, everyone was shocked.

Their sense of vigilance was instantly pushed to the maximum.

"Desolate Heaven Marquis, I'll leave the rest to you!" Su Zhe stared at Shi Huang and grinned.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Shi Huang walked up to Su Zhe and suddenly raised his hand.

Boom!

With one punch, Su Zhe's soul body shattered, and his vast Soul Power scattered in all directions, dissipating into the world.

"You…"

The remaining Moon Soul Envoy and Sun Soul Envoy both changed their expressions at the same time.

Looking at Shi Huang in surprise.

"I hate it most when others tell me what to do…"

Shi Huang said nonchalantly, "Whom I want to kill and how I kill them, is it your place to command?"

The Moon Soul Envoy turned pale and said in a trembling voice: "Shi Huang, you… how dare you…"

Bang!

Another punch.

The remaining two Soul Envoys both perished, not leaving a single trace behind.

Leaving only Shi Huang standing alone on the spot.

This scene.

Left Lin Yan and the others stunned.

Shi Huang turned his head, looked at Lin Yan and the others, and said indifferently: "Your strength is decent, don't die easily. If I am the only one left on this road of invincibility, it would be too lonely!"

Just as he finished speaking.

He stomped his foot, actually tearing open a Void Realm rift in the Heavenly Ruins.

He directly left the Heavenly Ruins… At the same time.

Outside the Heavenly Ruins.

Sensing a series of intelligence and information frequently coming through.

Xiao Chenzhou's expression changed again and again.

Swoosh!

Shi Huang's figure appeared, standing proudly between heaven and earth, attracting everyone's attention.

The aura on his body was completely unreserved.

So powerful it made one's heart palpitate.

"Who is this person?"

"So strong!"

"How did he leave the Heavenly Ruins early?"

"…"

Shi Huang slowly turned his head, his gaze sweeping over everyone, finally landing directly on Wang Mu, with a thick killing intent locking onto him: "What are you all still waiting for? How long do you plan to hide?"

Although he was looking at Wang Mu.

These words were clearly not meant for Wang Mu.

On the Flying Boats of the Absolute Beginning Holy Land and the Qiankun Holy Land, Xiao Chenzhou and Su Muyu both turned pale: "What is he doing? Why isn't he following the plan?"

"It was clearly agreed that if we couldn't kill Wang Mu this time, the focus would be on the others. He's acting recklessly!"

"I told you earlier, this person is uncontrollable! He can't be trusted!"

"There's no other way, take action!"

Xiao Chenzhou cursed inwardly.

From his sleeve, a patch of night suddenly flew out, covering the entire sky.

Instantly.

Between heaven and earth, not an inch of light could be seen.
