hóng yī měi fù jiàn le ， liǎn shàng dùn shí lù chū yī lǚ níng zhòng ， zhè kě bú shì shén me pǔ tōng de huà xíng de shén tōng ， méi
红衣美妇见了，脸上顿时露出一缕凝重，这可不是什么普通的化形的神通，没
The red-robed beauty's face immediately showed a trace of seriousness. This wasn't just any ordinary transformation ability; it actually integrated the soul essence of a third-stage monster, with a two-headed black snake serving as its spirit.
xiǎng dào lǎo yāo pó de fǎ bǎo lǐ ， jū rán zhěng hé de yǒu sān jiē yāo shòu de hún pò ， yǒu shuāng tóu wū shé zuò wéi qì líng ，
想到老妖婆的法宝里，居然整合的有三阶妖兽的魂魄，有双头乌蛇作为器灵，
This was going to be troublesome.
zhè kě yǒu xiē má fán le 。
这可有些麻烦了。
"Scared already, little bitch?" The haughty voice of the Yin Ghost Woman echoed in her ears, filled with deep resentment. A finger pointed out, and the two-headed black snake howled as it rushed forward.
“ zěn me ， xiǎo jiàn bì ， hài pà le ？” xuán yīn guǐ nǚ xiāo zhāng de shēng yīn chuán rù ěr duǒ ， lǐ miàn hán yǒu shēn shēn de
“怎么，小贱婢，害怕了？”玄阴鬼女嚣张的声音传入耳朵，里面含有深深的
Given the situation, the red-robed beauty naturally couldn't back down. Although the opponent was more troublesome than expected, her ghost jade technique was no joke either. With a bite of her silver teeth, she activated the Yin Soul Pin talisman.
yuàn dú ， tóng shí shǒu zhǐ diǎn chū 。 shuāng tóu wū shé sī míng zhe chōng guò lái le 。
怨毒，同时手指点出。双头乌蛇嘶鸣着冲过来了。
A red light and an ominous black glow clashed once again, but this time with even greater force.
shì yǐ zhì cǐ ， hóng yī měi fù zì rán bù néng tuì suō ， duì fāng suī bǐ xiǎng xiàng de nán chán ， dàn tā de guǐ yù xuán gōng yě
事已至此，红衣美妇自然不能退缩，对方虽比想像的难缠，但她的鬼玉玄功也
Of course, as the head of the Cloud Ghost Sect and an important figure in the Ning family, they couldn't just rely on one piece of treasure.
fēi tóng xiǎo kě ， yín yá yī yǎo ， yě qū dòng le yīn pò zān fǎ bǎo 。
非同小可，银牙一咬，也驱动了阴魄簪法宝。
The Yin Ghost Woman tapped her waist and summoned another spirit beast. This creature was strange; it had a fox's body, a chimpanzee's head, and six legs that moved like the wind. It could also use earth and wind attributes.
yī lǚ hóng guāng ， yī lǚ wū máng zài cì jī dòu zài le yì qǐ ， rán ér shēng shì què yuǎn fēi gāng cái kě jí 。
一缕红光，一缕乌芒再次激斗在了一起，然而声势却远非刚才可及。
What kind of spirit beast was this? As a core formation stage expert, the red-robed beauty naturally saw many such things but still couldn't recognize it. Surprised, she had to summon a piece of treasure to defend herself, quickly falling on the defensive.
dāng rán ， liǎng rén fēn bié shēn wèi yún guǐ zōng zhī zhǔ yǔ níng jiā de zhòng yào rén wù ， fǎ bǎo bù kě néng zhǐ yǒu zhè me yī jiàn
当然，两人分别身为云鬼宗之主与宁家的重要人物，法宝不可能只有这么一件
"Little bitch, today is your death sentence!"
de 。
的。
The Yin Ghost Woman gloated with a "coquettish laugh," but her voice was as unpleasant as scraping bone with steel. The red-robed beauty clenched her silver teeth and drove all her treasures into battle.
xuán yīn guǐ nǚ zài yāo jiān yī pāi ， yòu zhào huàn chū le yī zhī líng shòu lái ， cǐ líng shòu mú yàng gǔ guài ， hú lí de shēn tǐ
玄阴鬼女在腰间一拍，又召唤出了一只灵兽来，此灵兽模样古怪，狐狸的身体
Their fight was intense!
， tóu lú què shì hēi xīng xīng de ， ér qiě zhǎng zhe liù tiáo tuǐ ， xíng dòng rú fēng ， hái huì qū shǐ tǔ shǔ xìng yǔ fēng shǔ xìng
，头颅却是黑猩猩的，而且长着六条腿，行动如风，还会驱使土属性与风属性
On the surface, the Yin Ghost Woman seemed to be winning, but she was quite surprised inside. Long ago, she had a grudge against Ning Sanfu and had fought him multiple times, ending in a stalemate where neither gained an advantage. They were well acquainted with each other's strengths.
liǎng zhǒng shén tōng 。
两种神通。
However, thirty years ago, she had another extraordinary experience that greatly increased her cultivation and abilities. Although she hadn't successfully condensed her essence core, she was far above other core formation stage cultivators.
zhè shì shén me líng shòu ， hóng yī měi fù shēn wèi níng dān qī gāo shǒu ， zì rán jiàn duō shí guǎng ， rán ér què yě rèn bù chū ，
这是什么灵兽，红衣美妇身为凝丹期高手，自然见多识广，然而却也认不出，
Originally, she thought it would be easy to severely injure this little bitch with her current strength. However, the result was different; Ning Sanfu's retreat was indeed chaotic, but killing him wasn't that simple either.
jīng è zhī yú ， zhǐ néng jì chū yī shàn zi fǎ bǎo dǐ dǎng ， què hěn kuài jiù bèi bī luò zhì le xià fēng 。
惊愕之余，只能祭出一扇子法宝抵挡，却很快就被逼落至了下风。
Brow furrowed, the Yin Ghost Woman exuded an even stronger aura of malice as she prepared to use a powerful secret technique. Suddenly, a flash of fire appeared, and a sound transmission talisman flew over from afar.
“ xiǎo jiàn bì ， jīn tiān jiù shì nǐ de sǐ qī ！”
“小贱婢，今天就是你的死期！”
The Yin Ghost Woman was taken aback, her face showing some confusion. But as the head of the sect, she naturally had a steady demeanor. She reached out, and the sound transmission talisman flew to her before she could even react.
xuán yīn guǐ nǚ dé yì de “ jiāo xiào ”， rán ér nà shēng yīn què nán tīng de yǒu rú guā gǔ de gāng dāo ， hóng yī měi fù yín
玄阴鬼女得意的“娇笑”，然而那声音却难听的有如刮骨的钢刀，红衣美妇银
She sank into it with her divine sense.
yá jǐn yǎo ， qū dòng hún shēn de fǎ bǎo xiāng kàng 。
牙紧咬，驱动浑身的法宝相抗。
"Ah!"
liǎng rén dǎ dī jī liè yì cháng ！
两人打的激烈异常！
Just seconds later, the Yin Ghost Woman's expression changed dramatically; her face turned from pale to red, looking extremely uncomfortable. Deep in her eyes, there seemed to be a hint of fear.
biǎo miàn shàng ， xuán yīn guǐ nǚ dà zhàn shàng fēng ， rán ér xīn lǐ què pǒ wèi chà yì ， zài hěn zǎo yǐ qián ， tā yǔ níng sān fū
表面上，玄阴鬼女大占上风，然而心里却颇为诧异，在很早以前，她与宁三夫
"Headmistress, what is it?" The silver-haired old man was nearby and saw this scene. He quickly flew forward with a questioning look on his face.
rén jiù yǒu sù yuàn ， céng jiāo shǒu guò duō cì ， jī běn shàng shì píng fēn qiū sè ， shuí yě méi yǒu tǎo zhe tài dà de pián yi ，
人就有宿怨，曾交手过多次，基本上是平分秋色，谁也没有讨着太大的便宜，
"Order everyone not to linger and retreat; leave the Thunder Yin Mountain." After some hesitation, the Yin Ghost Woman gritted her teeth and gave the order.
xiāng hù jiān suàn shì zhī gēn zhī dǐ 。
相互间算是知根知底。
"What?" The silver-haired old man was stunned, almost thinking he had heard wrong. Ignoring the hierarchy, he argued: "Headmistress, what are you saying? Although the situation is tough, we're not far from our goal. With a little more effort, we can completely wipe out the Ning family. How can we give up halfway?"
rán ér sān shí nián qián ， tā què lìng yǒu yī fān qí yù ， xiū wèi shén tōng ， dōu bào zhǎng le xǔ duō ， suī rán níng jié yuán yīng
然而三十年前，她却另有一番奇遇，修为神通，都暴涨了许多，虽然凝结元婴
"Shut up and retreat as I command! The opponent has an essence core cultivator, and there are two of them. If my guess is right, we've been tricked this time." The Yin Ghost Woman said unkindly.
méi yǒu chéng gōng ， dàn bǐ zhī qí tā de níng dān qī xiū shì ， zé wán quán bú shì yí gè dàng cì 。
没有成功，但比之其他的凝丹期修士，则完全不是一个档次。
In fact, after Lin Xuan and the Corpse Demon left Cangyue Peak, they split into two groups to aid other places. With their current cultivation, it was like a crane among chickens; killing enemies was as easy as cutting melons and chopping cucumbers.
yuán běn tā mǎn yǐ wéi ， yǐ zì jǐ rú jīn de shí lì ， qīng ér yì jǔ jiù néng zhòng chuāng zhè xiǎo jiàn bì ， nǎ xiǎo de què shì
原本她满以为，以自己如今的实力，轻而易举就能重创这小贱婢，哪晓得却是
With these two big bosses joining in, the battle turned one-sided. Ning family cultivators fought with increasing vigor while the opponent's morale began to crumble.
zhè zhǒng jié guǒ ， níng sān fū rén láng bèi shì láng bèi le ， kě xiǎng yào qǔ tā xìng mìng ， què yě bìng bú shì nà me róng yì de 。
这种结果，宁三夫人狼狈是狼狈了，可想要取她性命，却也并不是那么容易的。
After all, for ordinary cultivators, an essence core expert was a force that couldn't be resisted.
méi tóu yī tiāo ， xuán yīn guǐ nǚ shēn shàng sàn fà chū gèng jiā nóng zhòng de lì qì ， zhèng xiǎng yào shī zhǎn mǒu zhǒng wēi lì qiáng dà de
眉头一挑，玄阴鬼女身上散发出更加浓重的戾气，正想要施展某种威力强大的
Even if there weren't many survivors, someone finally sent out a sound transmission talisman desperately.
mì fǎ ， tū rán huǒ guāng yī shǎn ， yī dào chuán yīn fú cóng yuǎn chù fēi le guò lái 。
秘法，突然火光一闪，一道传音符从远处飞了过来。
Seeing this, the Yin Ghost Woman was both shocked and angry. But she also had doubts; why did they suddenly summon a Corpse Demon elder and bring an essence core friend to help? Could it have been planned from the start?
xuán yīn guǐ nǚ yī dāi ， liǎn shàng bù yóu de lù chū jǐ fēn yí huò lái ， bù guò tā shēn wèi yī zōng zhī zhǔ ， zì rán yōng yǒu
玄阴鬼女一呆，脸上不由得露出几分疑惑来，不过她身为一宗之主，自然拥有
Perhaps there were traps waiting for them all along.
chén wěn de qì dù ， shēn shǒu yī zhāo ， nà chuán yīn fú jiù fēi dào tā de miàn qián 。
沉稳的气度，伸手一招，那传音符就飞到她的面前。
Thinking of this, she felt a chill run down her spine. If they continued fighting, it might not be the Ning family but the Cloud Ghost Sect that was destroyed.
shén shí chén rù lǐ miàn 。
神识沉入里面。
Although this woman was vicious, she had the decisiveness to act quickly. She ordered everyone to retreat immediately.
“ a ！”
“啊！”
Unfortunately, it was too late!
jǐn jǐn guò le shù miǎo ， xuán yīn guǐ nǚ jiù bó rán sè biàn ， liǎn sè hū qīng hū bái ， yì cháng nán kàn 。 móu dǐ shēn chù ，
仅仅过了数秒，玄阴鬼女就勃然色变，脸色忽青忽白，异常难看。眸底深处，
The red-robed beauty, as head of the third branch and a contender for the family seat, was no stranger to strategy. Seeing the panic on the other side after receiving the sound transmission talisman, her mind raced, guessing the contents.
jìng shì yǐn yǐn tòu chū le jǐ fēn kǒng jù de yǎn shén lái 。
竟似隐隐透出了几分恐惧的眼神来。
With a slight smile, she called out: "Disciples listen up; our ancestor has arrived nearby. Everyone put in some extra effort and keep them occupied until the ancestor arrives to eliminate these monsters."
“ zōng zhǔ ， zěn me le ？” yín fā lǎo zhě jiù zài jìn chù ， jiàn le cǐ jǐng ， máng huǎng shēn fēi zhì jìn qián ， mǎn liǎn yí
“宗主，怎么了？”银发老者就在近处，见了此景，忙晃身飞至近前，满脸疑
The Ning family cultivators responded loudly, their morale boosted.
wèn de kāi kǒu 。
问的开口。
On the other hand, Cloud Ghost Sect's cultivators didn't know why their headmistress suddenly ordered a retreat but had experienced many battles. They were all cunning and guessed that the situation was not in their favor, so they naturally didn't want to continue fighting.
“ chuán lìng xià qù ， ràng zhòng dì zǐ bú yào liàn zhàn ， chè tuì ， lí kāi léi yīn shān 。” xuán yīn guǐ nǚ lüè yī chóu chú ，
“传令下去，让众弟子不要恋战，撤退，离开雷阴山。”玄阴鬼女略一踌躇，
With one side wanting to leave and the other trying to hold them back, the situation became very delicate.
zhōng yú hái shì yǎo yá qiè chǐ de fēn fù 。
终于还是咬牙切齿的吩咐。
Ning Sanfu reached out, combed her hair, and from her mouth, a small seal stamp appeared. It grew with the wind, transforming into a large pavilion-sized object that crashed towards the opponent. She also laughed: "Old witch, why did you run? You were so arrogant just now; how could you be scared after such a short time? Sigh, it's no wonder you're like that—weak and afraid of power, always trying to look tough. I wonder if those Cloud Ghost Sect guys are blind for making you their headmistress. They deserve to suffer today as this foolish sect will turn into ashes."
“ shén me ？” yín fā lǎo zhě yī dāi ， jī hū yǐ wéi zì jǐ tīng cuò ， gù bù dé shàng xià zūn bēi de fǎn bó ：“ zōng
“什么？”银发老者一呆，几乎以为自己听错，顾不得上下尊卑的反驳：“宗
This woman was sharp-tongued, her words even more vicious, aiming to make the Yin Ghost Woman lose her composure.
zhǔ ， nín zài shuō shén me ， zhàn jú suī rán yǒu xiē jiān nán ， dàn wǒ men jù lí míng míng yǐ jīng bù yuǎn ， zhǐ yào zài jiā yī
主，您在说什么，战局虽然有些艰难，但我们距离明明已经不远，只要再加一
"Die!"
bǎ lì ， jiù néng jiāng níng jiā cóng zhè ge shì jiè shàng chè dǐ mǒ qù ， nǎ yǒu bàn tú ér fèi de dào lǐ ？”
把力，就能将宁家从这个世界上彻底抹去，哪有半途而废的道理？”
The Yin Ghost Woman's face contorted as she heard this. Although she knew it was a provocation, she couldn't bear the humiliation. With a look of resentment in her eyes, she spat out a drop of blood.
“ shǎo luō suo ， wǒ ràng chè jiù chè ， duì fāng yǒu yuán yīng qī gāo shǒu ， ér qiě hái shì liǎng gè ， ruò suǒ liào méi cuò ， zhè
“少啰嗦，我让撤就撤，对方有元婴期高手，而且还是两个，若所料没错，这
After leaving her mouth, the blood transformed into a strange bird the size of a fist and flew into one of the opponent's treasures. The two-headed black snake absorbed it, and dark energy surged, with countless strange symbols appearing...
The red-robed beauty's face immediately showed a trace of seriousness. This wasn't just any ordinary transformation ability; it actually integrated the soul essence of a third-stage monster, with a two-headed black snake serving as its spirit.
This was going to be troublesome.
"Scared already, little bitch?" The haughty voice of the Yin Ghost Woman echoed in her ears, filled with deep resentment. A finger pointed out, and the two-headed black snake howled as it rushed forward.
