Embers of Sword

Chapter 529 The Sanctuary
"Crazy... Crazy..."

In the distant void.

The three false saints watched this scene with grim expressions.

Under the manipulation of the "Puppet Burning Technique," the final strike of the Corpse Puppet Six Desires True Monarch had reached the upper limit of the Yin God Realm. In a sense, this was the strongest strike that the Yin God Realm could unleash.

Even Chen Chong, the Great Perfection expert from the Li Kingdom who was known as "Invincible Yin Spirit," could not have withstood this attack unscathed.

But Zhou did it.

This guy not only took the hit, but also punched the Corpse Puppet Six Desires True Monarch to pieces!

"This kid has really ignited the divine fire of the Great Aperture. Judging from this, he's already successfully ignited half of it!"

Mo Daoren gritted his teeth: "You two, if you don't show yourselves and fight to the death, this guy will successfully break through to the next realm... and we'll all die!"

No one understands the current situation better than them.

Logically speaking.

Everything is moving in the best possible direction.

With the Soul-Devouring Banner and the Corpse Puppet Cave Heaven unleashed, the battle was easily crushed.

As long as we wear down Ye Zu.

With this Bai Ze Secret Tomb, there is no one left to rival it!
Who would have thought that this madman Zhou would actually attempt to break through to the Yang God realm in the heat of battle... and judging from his posture, he has a good chance of succeeding!
“Ye Zu is very likely waiting for us to show up right now.”

Watching this scene, Master Huanxi's eyes were filled with apprehension and worry, but even more so with hesitation: "Even if this kid ignites all his major acupoints, he may still ultimately 'fail to break through'..."

Breaking through to the Yang God realm is extremely difficult.

Even if the current fortunes are reversed and a great era is coming, many preparations are still needed to become a Yang God!

Zhou just lit the Great Aperture like that. Isn't he afraid of getting burned and eventually burning himself to ashes?

"Those who practice martial arts are all fools... If I hear the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening."

Bai Gui lowered his eyes and said coldly, "Given Zhou's personality, once the Great Aperture Yuan Fire is fully ignited, the first thing he'll probably do is try to fight us to the death."

No one knows what the outcome would be if Zhou were allowed to ignite all the primordial fire.

Perhaps, Zhou will be devoured by the Yuan Fire.

Failure to break through to the Yang God realm carries a high chance of death and dissipation.

Or perhaps, the meeting will be successful.

But one thing is certain... Once this Martial Sect madman ignites all his major acupoints and transcends the Yin Spirit, even for just a moment, he will definitely fight the three of them to the death!
"Can't wait any longer."

Bai Gui made a decision and said in a deep voice, "Don't forget, we still have 'that thing' on us. Ye Zu is already a dying man. Even if we suffer a sword strike from him, it's better than letting Zhou Pojing go!"

This statement came out.

Mo Daoren and Huanxi Chanzhu exchanged a glance, their thoughts settling on.

"Let's all three of us go together."

Bai Gui stared into the distance and said, word by word, "Kill Zhou, kill Ye Zu!"

The voice was ruthless and decisive.

As the white ghost finished speaking...

The Soul-Devouring Banner, which was planted in the earth, shook violently.

Countless ghosts paused for a moment at that instant, then went even more frenzied...

"kill!"

"kill!!"

Those vengeful ghosts who died unjustly in the Soul-Eating Banner had long lost their minds. At this moment, they opened their lips and burst out sharp screams!
A powerful killing intent erupted in the air above the battlefield.

The Mingwang Zhenhai Formation was completely engulfed by the black demons. The white-clad warrior, standing alone in front of the crowd, showed no joy or sorrow. His flowing sleeves, fluttering in the wind, were illuminated by the primordial fire.

At this moment, the white-clad warrior appeared to be a god.

His head was completely white, but it was dyed gold.

Of the 360 ​​major acupoints, 180 were ignited, and each acupoint was ignited with the sound of wind and thunder.

He watched the figures falling one by one in front of him.

The three false saints of the Southern Frontier finally chose to show themselves, but they did not land in one place. Instead, three illusory figures stood a hundred feet apart in front of Zhou Zheng and on his left and right sides.

"Emperor Wuzong is truly awe-inspiring... The waves crash and the tide rises higher and higher."

The white ghost's frail body stepped out from the void.

With an approving look, he gazed at the white-robed martial artist before him and said softly, "Your master risked his life in the White Paper Barrier... and you dared to ignite the Primordial Flame in the Secret Tomb. Truly, you are of the same lineage. Are you truly not afraid of failing your advancement and perishing?" "What is there to fear in death?"

Zhou spoke casually.

The primordial fire on his body was still burning. One acupoint was ignited, followed by a second one... This dazzling divine fire illuminated the heavens, causing the three pseudo-saints to feel "uneasy".

"it is good."

Bai Gui nodded, sincerely exclaiming, "You have strength and courage. You are far superior to my damned disciple."

The sound traveled for hundreds of feet.

The news reached the ears of Master Baihe.

"..."

Ren Zhong stared blankly at the chaotic battlefield before him, where Yin Gods, Corpse Puppets, and Great Chu cultivators were locked in a fierce battle. The pressure that had been exerting on him due to the appearance of Bai Gui Mo Dao Ren suddenly lessened, and even Qin Qian Lian, who had been staring intently at him, was briefly distracted by the melee.

Ah……

It seems that everyone has assumed they are dead.

indeed.

Regardless of who wins, the final outcome is always their own death.

Bai Gui's words fell into his heart without causing the slightest ripple. Ren Zhong knew that his master had never truly thought highly of him... After all, Yinshan was such a place. However, the four words Zhou had uttered earlier ignited a flame in his dead and cold heart.

Zhou said, "What is there to fear in death?"

Yes... what is there to fear in death...

I'm going to die either way...

What is there to fear?

Renzuka turned his head back very slowly, looking at the magnificent and splendid sanctuary and the pure white stone tablet that exuded the pressure of the Great Dao.

he knows.

The stele left by Bai Ze seems close at hand, but in reality, it is far away.

The sanctuary appears "peaceful and tranquil" on the surface, but once you step inside, you'll find numerous formations and traps set to eliminate you...

But at the end of that sanctuary was what he had been searching for.

Upon entering the secret tomb.

Renzuka thought that all he wanted was a stone tablet.

Only now did he understand.

What I want is the hope of surviving.

Perhaps, this is the path I have been searching for.

"If you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening..."

A very soft murmur echoed amidst the chaotic battlefield. Qian San was fighting the corpse puppet, Ye Qinglian and Jiang Que were assisting the Mingwang Zhenhai Formation, the Qiantian Palace elders were using the Dragon Appearance Treasure Technique, and all the Yin Gods on Da Chu's side were trapped in this chaos, except for Qin Qianlian, who was closest to Baihe Zhenren.

The figure that had been kneeling for so long stood up, swaying slightly.

"!!!"

Qin Qianlian suddenly realized something was wrong and reached out to pull out the Thunder Whip from the void. Before he could pull it out, he was hit by the roar of the "foolish junior brother" next to Master Baihe.

Zhong Sha wailed and hugged Qin Qianlian, but in just a moment, he was whipped by the lightning whip and his flesh was mangled.

He cried out and turned to look at his senior brother.

With an indifferent expression, Master Baihe stepped over the crumbling, broken wall and into the magnificent and splendid sanctuary.

"His."

With just one step, countless sword energies emerged from the void, cutting countless wounds into his skin.

However, Renzuka remained oblivious, as if he felt no pain...

Let the blood spill onto the ground, flowing in long lines.

With a resolute expression, Master Baihe walked step by step toward the end of the Holy Temple.
