Divine Transcendence

"Being able to control so many soul bats, this person’s soul cultivation is so powerful. Could Xiying be in danger?" Yuan Ming pondered to himself, and a thought suddenly surfaced in his mind.

Where are you, Xiying?

Without lingering here, he continued to flee into the distance.

At this moment, several blood bats appeared in front of him and pounced towards him.

Yuan Ming cursed under his breath and quickly used the Wind Swift technique to dodge to the side, avoiding the attacks of the blood bats.

However, these blood bats seemed to be fixated on him like leeches, relentlessly chasing after him.

The speed of the blood bats was extremely fast, and even with the use of the Shadowless Step and the acceleration of the white jade belt, he couldn’t shake them off. Instead, they were getting closer and closer.

His expression turned grim. Those controlled by the blood bats would completely lose themselves. If that happened, not to mention escaping from the Bi Luo Cave, he would most likely die here!

Yuan Ming didn’t have time to hesitate. He quickly took out the Earth Travel Talisman and activated it, and his figure was enveloped in a yellow light before disappearing into the ground.

To his surprise, the blood bats also disappeared into the ground, and their pursuit speed did not decrease at all.

At this moment, Yuan Ming couldn’t afford to think too much and could only exert all his strength to flee forward.

Although the Earth Travel Talisman allowed movement underground, it was not fast. Several blood bats caught up in the blink of an eye and entered his body.

A cold breath infiltrated Yuan Ming’s body, quickly entering his sea of consciousness and eroding his soul.

His body immediately became stiff, and a blood-red light began to appear in his eyes.

However, he was a strong soul cultivator, and his soul was powerful enough to maintain his sanity.

Due to the backlash of the Fur Coat Technique, his soul had been attacked countless times before. At this moment, his thoughts turned quickly, and he began to operate the Death Moon method.

A dark moon rose in his sea of consciousness, emitting a white light that dissipated the cold breath invading his sea of consciousness.

The blood-red color in Yuan Ming’s eyes faded, and his body regained mobility. He breathed a sigh of relief, and a certain thought in his mind grew stronger, making him feel a little scared.

The Bi Luo Cave collected the souls of mortals all year round, and combined with the usual portrayal of the great elder’s powerful strength, the owner of the soul bats was undoubtedly the great elder.

This person’s methods were truly terrifying. He released so many soul-formed entities that attached to living people without a sound, causing the possessed individuals to attack as if they were possessed, completely unconscious and unafraid of pain or death.

The methods of a soul cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage were so domineering!

Fortunately, soul cultivation was already difficult, and a slight carelessness could lead to backlash and death. Therefore, compared to the methods of law cultivation and body cultivation, it was a rare existence.

The Dawn Scattering Alliance was ordered to attack the Bi Luo Cave and repeatedly vowed to exterminate the main culprit. Could it be that the employer had a grudge against the great elder, or was afraid of him?

"Could it be Master Yu?" This thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

At the moment, there were probably blood bats everywhere outside. Instead of immediately lurking out of the ground, he continued to control the two soul crows outside to observe the situation and plan his escape.

The great cave master had been injured and captured, but what seemed to be a stable situation had become chaotic due to the appearance of these strange blood bats. Ougi and Blood Battle were already injured and helpless in this situation, and could only try to stabilize the situation as much as possible.

At this moment, a blood shadow shot out from the nearby void, swiftly and directly towards Ougi and Blood Battle, carrying a blood-red banner with grim and monstrous ghostly figures painted on it.

"The Banner of Ten Thousand Ghosts!"

Ougi and Blood Battle dodged to the left and right like avoiding a snake or a scorpion.

The direction of the blood-colored banner changed and headed straight for Blood Battle.

The sound of ghostly howls rose, and countless blood clouds gushed out from the blood-colored banner, turning into a surging blood-red wave that swept towards Blood Battle, with numerous ferocious ghosts lurking within the blood cloud.

Although Blood Battle was seriously injured, his reaction was still extremely fast. He suddenly turned around and slashed with his long knife.

A huge light beam tens of feet long shot out and split the blood cloud and ghostly figures in half.

However, the blood cloud and ghostly figures immediately merged back together, seemingly unharmed, and continued to pounce towards Blood Battle, engulfing most of the area around him in an instant.

Blood Battle let out a loud shout, and the blood light on his battle knife surged. Nine slightly smaller light beams shot out, once again breaking through the approaching blood cloud.

He waved his other hand, and more than twenty purple talismans appeared out of thin air, each emitting a powerful electric aura.

Blood Battle quickly activated the talismans, and dozens of thick purple lightning bolts appeared, resembling a forest of lightning, tearing through the blood cloud and ghostly figures and striking towards the center of the blood cloud.

The dazzling lightning overwhelmed everything, but soon dissipated.

A tattered banner rolled and flew out, falling towards the ground.

A smug smile appeared on Blood Battle’s face. His cultivation was slightly lower, and he was seriously injured. If Chen Cangqiong had made a move against them, he would have definitely targeted himself first. Fortunately, he had made plenty of preparations.

However, at this moment, a sudden change occurred!

Blood Battle’s abdomen suddenly throbbed with pain, and a hand covered in blood pierced through his dantian, grabbing a water-blue Golden Elixir.

Blood Battle’s strength rapidly dissipated from his body, but he still stared wide-eyed, his face filled with an incredulous expression.His Blood Spirit Blade had long been sentient, alerting him immediately if anyone approached within thirty feet. How could he have been ambushed?

Before Blood Battle’s eyes, the scene suddenly fractured into countless cracks, and in the next moment, it shattered, revealing an entirely new vista.

A youth in a green robe stood quietly before him, his palm pierced through Blood Battle’s body. The Myriad Ghosts Banner had not been destroyed by the power of lightning; it now firmly wrapped around the Blood Spirit Blade, rendering it immobile. A vast expanse of blood clouds enveloped the two, preventing Ogi from drawing near.

"So it was an illusion..." Blood Battle struggled to speak, a self-mocking smile on his lips.

The green-robed youth crushed the Golden Elixir, and Blood Battle’s vision was engulfed by endless darkness.

"Who gave you the audacity to run rampant in my Bi Luo Cave?" The youth withdrew his hand, a ferocious smile on his face.

He collected Blood Battle’s corpse and the Blood Spirit Blade, then turned his gaze toward Ogi, who was not far away.

A chill ran down Ogi’s spine, and he turned to flee into the distance.

"Too late." The green-robed youth formed a seal with his fingers, and the blood clouds around him surged, instantly transforming into a blood dragon tens of feet long, chasing after Ogi with bared fangs and claws.

The blood dragon was incredibly fast, rapidly closing the distance with Ogi.

Ogi reached for a jade amulet with one hand and crushed it. A white light immediately enveloped him, and his figure turned into a streak of white light, speeding away even faster.

A sinister smile appeared on the youth’s face as he made another seal with his fingers.

The blood dragon’s body suddenly swelled, its speed increasing manifold, and in an instant, it caught up with Ogi, engulfing his figure. Ogi’s silhouette abruptly halted and plummeted downward, crashing heavily into the ground.

With a loud "bang," the blood dragon’s body exploded, reverting into a vast expanse of blood clouds that spread in all directions, engulfing a radius of dozens of feet and continuing to expand.

This was near Qing Luo Square, where the female formation master and many members of the Dawn Alliance were present. They were instantly overwhelmed by the blood clouds, falling to the ground with cries of agony.

Shadowy figures floated out from these people, their souls, devoured by the blood clouds.

The overwhelming blood clouds surged toward the female formation master, threatening to engulf her.

Seeing this, she showed no fear. Stamping her foot, a silver formation immediately appeared around her transparent shoes, radiating bright light.

Just as the female formation master’s figure was about to vanish, a bat, like a bolt of lightning, crashed into her body.

The light from the silver formation scattered, the teleportation complete, and the female formation master disappeared without a trace.

"A Minor Teleportation Talisman?" The youth raised an eyebrow but didn’t pay it much mind, about to activate the Myriad Ghosts Banner again.

A flash of silver light appeared above his head, and a small silver bell materialized out of thin air, accompanied by a hunched old man, another Golden Elixir stage cultivator.

The old man shouted lowly, striking the bell, which instantly grew several times larger and rang out rapidly with "clang, clang, clang."

Silver ripples enveloped the area, quickly submerging the green-robed youth’s body.

The green-robed youth froze, his eyes glazing over with confusion.

Beside him, the void fluctuated, and two figures emerged: a man in a red robe and a woman in a green dress, both also Golden Elixir stage beings.

Three Golden Elixir cultivators!

One wielded a fiery red trident, the other a green flying sword, both striking with lightning speed at the green-robed youth’s body.

Caught off guard, the green-robed youth’s body was cleaved into three pieces, blood splattering everywhere.

Excitement flashed across the trio’s faces, but it quickly froze.

The youth’s severed body turned into streaks of light and vanished, and a white light flickered in the void a dozen feet away, revealing the youth’s figure once again.

"Another illusion! Be careful, Chen Cangqiong’s soul cultivation realm has likely advanced a lot, easily pulling us into an illusion!" The hunched old man retreated several feet, his expression extremely grave.

"Impossible, we all have Soul-Binding Talismans, how could we still be affected by an illusion?" The man in the red robe and the woman in the green dress also retreated to the old man’s side, speaking in disbelief.

The three were reinforcements hired at a high price by the Dawn Alliance to deal specifically with Chen Cangqiong, and they had made thorough preparations, including the Soul-Binding Talismans.

These talismans had one purpose: to create a special barrier around the wearer, preventing the approach of soul energy.

For a soul cultivator to cast an illusion, a prerequisite was to touch the target with soul energy. Chen Cangqiong’s soul energy might be stronger than all three of them, but it definitely couldn’t penetrate the barrier of the Soul-Binding Talisman.

"This person’s magical powers are strange, proceed with caution," the hunched old man said slowly, also puzzled.

A black streak of light shot from afar, landing beside the three, revealing Ogi’s figure.

He had escaped the blood cloud’s restraint, but his complexion was as pale as paper, clearly severely injured.

"To deal with me, you’ve actually called upon so many Golden Elixir stage cultivators, thinking that numbers will ensure success?" The green-robed youth looked around at Ogi and the others, unconcerned, and spoke slowly.

The blood clouds on the ground flew back, once again surrounding him, rolling and swirling, making his figure flicker in and out of sight. With a wave of his hand, dozens of bats flew chaotically, adding an eerie touch to the scene.
