第四卷 七星岛 第六百九十三章 细丝(求推荐票)

A flash of green light, and the Corpse Demon grew in size after landing a successful strike. In an instant, it transformed into a giant towering over ten zhang.

This顶尖 divine technique was one of those found within the Corpse Avatar Art, but naturally, without reaching the婴灵 stage, one could not even begin to practice it.

It was said that with deep cultivation, this technique could grow to be a thousand zhang tall. The Corpse Demon's current knowledge of it was merely a fraction of its true power.

Rumble!

The White Tiger roared into the sky, but its voice sounded more like a mournful cry. With the monster's sudden growth, even its wounds expanded.

"Damnit!"

Red Silk Fairy's pretty face turned pale as she raised her jade hand, a flicker of spiritual light appearing at her fingertips. But Lin Xuan was right beside her; how could he sit idly by while she took action?

With a wave of his sleeve, the Nine Heavens Bright Moon Ring emerged like a fish from water. Lin Xuan grasped it and poured all his latent power into it.

A clear ringing sound echoed as two completely different spiritual energies formed in his hands—one cold as ice, the other burning fiercely like flames.

"Quickly!"

Lin Xuan whispered, merging the two spiritual energies. Two monstrous snakes appeared before his eyes.

This snake was over twenty zhang long, larger than the distant Azure Dragon by a considerable margin. Its face was grotesquely ugly with sharp bone horns on its forehead, glaring viciously at the woman in front of it as if ready to devour her...

Red Silk Fairy's expression was beyond ugly; her large eyes filled with disbelief.

"Impossible... How can your treasure be bi-attribute?"

Sometimes ignorance could be bliss, but Red Silk Fairy was no stranger to knowledge. In ancient times, the cultivation world was far more prosperous than now. The Jade Profound Sect had two experts at the Separation Realm.

Though they couldn't transcend the heavenly tribulation and ascend to the Spirit World with the sect's leader and Uncle Li, their treasures were genuine bi-attribute.

This was a sign of advancing to the Separation Realm. Yet this young man wasn't even an婴灵 cultivator; how could he possess such a treasure? It seemed too incredible.

Red Silk Fairy had a feeling that she was doing something foolish. Perhaps from the start, she shouldn't have taken on this young man as an enemy.

But now that things had come to this, there was no choice but to grit her teeth and persevere!

Seeing the two-headed monster snake charge at her, Red Silk Fairy reached for the Spirit Ring above her head. Though his bi-attribute treasure startled her, she knew not to underestimate her own.

Driven by her will, the small bracelet-like treasure began spinning rapidly in mid-air. A dazzling light burst from its center.

磅礴 spiritual energy radiated outward like ripples.

The Corpse Fog was driven away as this light shone as brightly as a sun.

Lin Xuan hummed, his expression grim. Though he didn't know what the other intended to do, he wouldn't sit idly by and let it happen.

Without any action from him, the two-headed monster snake raised its head, opened its blood-red maw, and spat out cold air and flames from different mouths.

In Lin Xuan's hand appeared a small gourd about the size of his fist.

He had held this treasure for some time. It was taken from an unlucky hair披发 cultivator during their encounter with Southern Bright Fire. Though not as powerful as it once was, it still held significant strength.

Lin Xuan raised the gourd into the air; it turned blood-red instantly.

A spell cast, and the gourd's size swelled before splitting into three, forming a row. After some shaking, they transformed into nine smaller versions identical to the first.

This wasn't an illusion or trick. This treasure emitted astonishing spiritual energy, followed by a beam of light from each gourd mouth, converging in a row and heading straight for Red Silk Fairy's chest and abdomen.

Since they were mortal enemies, Lin Xuan wouldn't be so foolish as to spare her.

A hint of viciousness flashed across the girl's face.

"Quickly!"

From her lips came only one word. The light above her flickered, transforming into a beautiful woman's face.

She opened her cherry-red mouth and spat out a web of crimson threads.

Like fine rain, they pierced towards Lin Xuan.

The other's divine technique was equally intricate; it soon collided with the cold air and flames spewed by the monster snake.

Silently, but strangely, both ice and fire spiritual energies seemed to be suppressed when meeting these strange threads. Even the two-headed monster snake's body couldn't withstand such a sharp attack, being pummeled mercilessly.

Meanwhile, the beams of light from the gourds continued their assault on Red Silk Fairy without restraint.

Lin Xuan's brows furrowed as he saw the danger. Injecting force into the Nine Heavens Bright Moon Ring, silver light flashed, and an ice shield appeared before him. Lin Xuan retreated behind it.

Pfft...

The ice shield, pure cold energy, should have been able to withstand ordinary treasures but faced these strange threads, seemed like thin paper, easily shattered.

Lin Xuan's expression darkened further as those threads not only attacked fiercely but also chased after him with a life-like tenacity.

This couldn't continue!

A flash of red light appeared again, and a wall of flames separated the two. The threads still pierced through it fearlessly...

Seeing Lin Xuan in such distress, Red Silk Fairy's pretty face finally broke into a smile.

On the other side, the Corpse Demon fought fiercely with the three-headed holy beasts. If it were just the White Tiger, he would have been killed instantly by the lightning-fast strike. However, Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise wouldn't be so foolish to watch. The two monsters' attacks forced the Corpse Demon to temporarily release his prey.

Lin Xuan's command was to delay them.

With魔气 surging, the Corpse Avatar Art was inherently unpredictable. Though the Corpse Demon had only partially mastered it, its power was formidable. Over ten years at the Fiery Sun Sect, he had carefully refined the Vengeful Master's ghost soul bone staff, making it nearly attuned to his will.

Though not as powerful as the original owner, it still allowed him some connection.

Transforming into a giant skeleton, spewing ghost fire.

Under the pressure of the three-headed monsters' attacks, though struggling on both sides, he could still manage to defend himself.

Lin Xuan wasn't worried. The Corpse Demon was valuable but merely a puppet under his control. Facing stronger enemies, even if it fell, it would just be painful for him.

The only thing Lin Xuan cared about was Yue'er. Though she was only at the凝聚丹 stage as a ghost cultivator, her Beast Soul Banner was formidable. With the array disk in her possession, supported by two treasures, facing the Phoenix, the young girl had the upper hand.

She now used禁制 to trap the Phoenix, with the magic banner covering the sky like a large flag. The beast's shadow within it left the Phoenix unable to retaliate.
