Fate of the Immortals and Demons

Chapter 369 Fighting

The mythical beast, disguised as an elderly man, went along with it, pointing with its cane:

"In that case, I will accept the offer without further ado. According to my deduction, the key point of this Dragon Soul Ruins is located on the Kan position of this bottomless vortex."

"Gentlemen, the distress signal was not sent by Prince Ziying of the Yingyue Dynasty alone, but also by sects such as the Shushan Sword Sect and the Kongling Sect of the Immortal Spirit Realm. While we are trying to save people, we must not let any personnel who have entered the Dragon Soul Ruins go unpunished."

Before taking action, the middle-aged Nascent Soul cultivator, referred to as Fellow Daoist Ling, solemnly added a supplementary statement.

"This is natural."

All the cultivators present naturally had no objections.

Without hesitation, he immediately launched an all-out attack.

"Rumble..."

Sure enough, after sending out a series of distress signals, a series of deafening explosions resounded.

It was as if the spatial barrier of this world was being forcibly broken by brute force.

Upon seeing this, the little evil dragon immediately stopped, withdrew, and came to Mo Hei's side, only then saying to himself:

"The Dragon Soul Blood Curse is not so easy to cast, but it can also be concluded that the guy you called Ma Liang must be extremely extraordinary and must have a big secret."

"Ah."

Mo Hei seemed preoccupied with these words, nodding in response. His gaze, made no attempt to conceal his thoughts, fell upon Dieyi, who was dressed in a fiery red dress and had already escaped.

At the same time, the Candle Dragon Spirit Fire, which had transformed into the Candle Flame Array, also materialized, taking the form of a small fire dragon. In an instant, it arrived beside Mo Hei, anxiously saying:

"Take advantage of this lull to prepare and get out of this troublesome place as soon as possible."

At that moment, Mo Hei suddenly had a flash of inspiration and seemed to understand something.

"So all you did was to escape before the powerful cultivators from the Immortal Realm arrived? Hmph! That's just wishful thinking."

Dao Yin, who was willing to self-destruct to escape, used a secret technique to forcibly attach his soul to the bricks and stones, keeping a close watch.

Under this pressure, the human cultivators and sea beast demons, who were suppressed by the inky black sword net, broke free one after another.

If it weren't for the presence of the Chilong spirit, the Zhulong fire, and a small crimson bird beside Mo Hei, they would surely have attacked him en masse.

Driven by his eagerness to save lives, Zi Ying crushed the jade talisman to send out a distress signal. After breaking free from the sword net's restraints, he made no attempt to hide his resentment.

With a swift movement, he arrived beside Dieyi, unable to conceal his concern, while simultaneously glaring angrily at Mohei who was looking over.

After the others broke free, they also showed a sense of shared hatred and were on high alert, clearly wary of Mo Hei, as if they were about to prevent him from escaping in the chaos.

This was because everyone present already knew perfectly well that the Dragon Soul Ruins were being forcibly closed at this moment.

Once shut down, this inky blackness, the essence of the dragon, and the spirit fire of the candle dragon will surely be doomed.

In reality, little did they know that this was a plan for escape that Little Evil Dragon and Candle Dragon Spirit Fire had already devised.

"boom!"

With a deafening roar, a crack was forcibly torn open in the void.

"Why aren't we leaving this Dragon Soul Ruins now! This rift passage is not going to last long and is not stable!"

Then, a majestic male voice, like rolling thunder, resounded throughout the land.

Due to the restrictions on cultivation levels imposed by the Dragon Soul Ruins, no cultivator above the Core Formation stage was able to forcibly enter for the time being.

However, this was only because external forces intervened in the Dragon Soul Ruins and forcibly broke it open, causing it to stop closing.

This will inevitably cause instability in the entire space of this Dragon Soul Ruins, and strange and unpredictable spatial rifts will appear.

This Dragon Soul Ruins is like an egg, forming its own world and possessing certain rules of heaven and earth, operating freely.

Now that this barrier has been forcibly broken down by external forces, it will inevitably cause internal strife, leading to its collapse and complete disintegration.

Therefore, this forceful intervention was intended to stabilize the Dragon Soul Ruins and prevent spatial instability, thus avoiding a complete failure and wasting all the effort.

It is impossible for him to make matters worse by descending into the Dragon Soul Ruins in his true form, causing it to collapse even more rapidly and turning the Dragon Soul Ruins into nothingness.

Even so, it did not prevent powerful cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage and above from condensing their Nascent Soul power to create a giant hand.

Through the crack, as if taking something out of a bag, he directly grabbed the disciple or younger disciple he was about to rescue and protected them as they escaped.

Of course, those cultivators who came with them but did not have a powerful background could only take this opportunity to leave on their own.

"Hey kid, stop standing there and get out of here."

After hurriedly finishing his words, the little evil dragon took the Candle Dragon Spirit Fire and dashed into the Dragon Pill Cave.

As for the little crimson bird, it let out a soft chirp, like a migratory bird returning to its nest, and then merged into the ink-black palm of his left hand.

"Young friend, you should hide here first! Leaving this Dragon Soul Ruins now would be tantamount to walking into a trap."

Just as Mo Hei was about to take flight, an old voice suddenly rang out.

As Mo Hei looked towards the sound, he saw not only a small conch shell, but also something hidden beneath a crack in a dilapidated wall.

"Young Mo, do not fall for this trick. Leave this realm first. Otherwise, once a powerful cultivator at the Void Immortal stage descends upon this world, there will truly be no way to escape."

The little evil dragon, who had already entered the Dragon Core Cave Heaven with the Candle Dragon Spirit Fire, once again urged Mo Hei to leave as soon as possible.

"Where are you going? Why don't you stay here?"

No sooner had the words been spoken than a giant, illusory claw emerged from the small conch shell, instantly seizing the black creature that had just begun to move, rendering it completely immobile.

"Oh!"

Just as the giant claw was about to grab the black creature and hide it inside the conch shell, a hand formed from the power of a Nascent Soul suddenly slammed down, followed by another Nascent Soul hand joining the fray.

"Cough cough!"

Even though Mo Hei was a ninth-grade Foundation Establishment cultivator with a deep foundation and had already broken through to the Root Establishment stage, he was still struck by the aftershock of the Nascent Soul cultivator's power, as if hit by a thunderbolt. He couldn't help but spit out blood and was seriously injured.

It is evident that the Nascent Soul stage cultivators who participated in the competition did not care at all about Mo Hei's life or death. Even if Mo Hei died as a result, as long as his soul was still intact, they would be willing to take even just one of the three souls and seven spirits.

Only after this struggle did Mo Hei manage to escape the giant claw, but he was immediately severely injured and collapsed to the ground.

Even so, Mo Hei dared not make any rash moves, after all, he was too weak.

At this moment, the pitch blackness is no different from that of an ant caught in a battle of elephants.

They dared not show their faces, let alone attempt to escape; the slightest misstep would endanger their lives.

"What a bastard!"

The little evil dragon, who was inside the Dragon Pill Cave, was furious after seeing this scene through his divine sense and immediately stepped forward.

"Old friend, don't be impulsive. With your current cultivation level of only the Foundation Establishment stage, rushing out would be tantamount to suicide!"

On the contrary, the Candle Dragon Spirit Fire was much calmer and more composed, transmitting its thoughts to the Ink Black Divine Sense through the Dragon Pill Cave Heaven:

"Boy, if you don't want to die, the only way is to find a chance to hide in the Creation Furnace to avoid being caught in the crossfire!"

"Of course I can't die! Die'er is waiting for me to travel through time to save her, how can I die like this!"

With this belief, Mo Hei wiped away the bloodstains from the corner of his mouth. Despite being seriously injured, he spared no effort and crawled forward little by little.

It was all because that Creation Furnace happened to be located not far in front of Mo Hei.

Normally, Mo Hei only needs to slip in to slip inside.

Unfortunately, at that moment, several cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage or above were engaged in a fierce battle.

Mo Hei, who was at the center of the fight, had to be careful and cautious, as if walking on thin ice.

If it weren't for the instability of the Dragon Soul Ruins space, there wouldn't have been just palm shadows formed by the power of the Nascent Soul, going back and forth, clashing with each other.

They probably rushed in long ago, vying to kidnap Mo Hei.

"Boom boom boom!"

The Dragon Soul Ruins, already unstable due to the forced opening, were further damaged by this fierce battle. The entire sky was immediately filled with spatial cracks, resembling a cracked eggshell, and was in imminent danger.

"Gentlemen, please hear what I have to say. How about we stop fighting for now and wait until this young friend leaves this Dragon Soul Ruins before making a decision?"

Seeing that it was difficult to gain the upper hand, the old voice rang out again from the conch shell, and it was the first to retract its giant claw.

"Hmph! As expected of the old monster Anxiu, so cunning and treacherous. Did he compromise only because he couldn't strike first?"

The person who scoffed at these words was You Lizi from the Shushan Sword Sect in the Heavenly Spirit Realm.

Following closely behind was the middle-aged Nascent Soul cultivator, dressed in magnificent attire and addressed as Fellow Daoist Ling, who smoothed things over by saying:

“Fellow Daoist You Lizi, there’s no need to be angry. However, Old Monster Anxiu’s suggestion is not unreasonable, after all, the Dragon Soul Ruins space is indeed unstable.”

"Eh? I wonder what the reason is for your actions, young friend? Could it be that even at this point, you still want to deceive yourself and hide inside the alchemy furnace?"

Taking advantage of the moment when the cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage stopped fighting and made peace, Mo Hei made a decisive move and quickly disappeared into the Creation Furnace.

"Fairy Zixia, you are mistaken. It seems that this young friend Mo is well aware of the saying 'A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime,' which is why he has taken this action?"

Then, not only did they hear You Lizi, an old man, stroking his beard, making comments that seemed quite critical.

"Huh? Why is there no record of this alchemy furnace in the Dragon Soul Ruins? It was opened occasionally before, and cultivators entered, but no one discovered its existence?"

The mythical beast, Anxiu, secretly exclaimed in surprise, scrutinizing the dust-covered, rather simple Creation Furnace with unwavering focus, and even emanating its divine sense to probe deeper.

In fact, not only did the Anxiu release its divine sense to probe the Creation Furnace, but all the other cultivators above the Nascent Soul stage also subconsciously used their divine sense to probe it.

"Whoosh!"

Suddenly, this unadorned alchemy furnace burst into flames, shot into the sky, and crashed straight into the spatial rift.
