Just as the Hua family patriarch was laughing wildly and everyone thought Bai Ying was doomed, the quasi-immortal artifact that had once struck fear into the hearts of countless powerful figures and was regarded as indestructible seemed to be cursed the moment it touched the extreme yin flame.

A faint black tinge gradually appeared on its surface, but this blackness seemed to possess a life of its own, spreading rapidly at an almost frenzied pace. In the blink of an eye, the entire rope was completely engulfed by the blackness, its once smooth and tough surface becoming rough and charred. A crisp "snap" shattered the deathly silence. The sound echoed in the empty space.

No one expected that such a terrifying magical artifact would be burned through!

Bai Ying stared at the rope enveloped in extreme yin flames. The eerie blue flames seemed to have come alive, greedily devouring the magical artifact.

Strangely, the flames danced and leaped like joyful dancers, seemingly enjoying a rare feast.

A hint of surprise flashed in Bai Ying's eyes. She hadn't expected that her Yin Flame would be so "fond" of this rope.

It seems that the material of this rope must be extremely special, a "delicacy" that the Extreme Yin Flame desperately craves.

The Hua family patriarch stared in disbelief at the sight, his eyes wide with shock. He couldn't believe that his prized magical artifact was so utterly vulnerable to this seemingly ordinary flame. In a panic, he hastily cast a spell, attempting to recall the rope.

However, the Extreme Yin Flame would not easily let go of its "prey." Like a nimble ghost, the flame, pulled by the rope, pounced straight towards the Hua family patriarch. Wherever it went, the air was scorched and distorted, emitting a sizzling sound. The Hua family patriarch was terrified and hurriedly summoned another ice-type magical artifact. He frantically channeled his magic power, and a chilling aura spewed from the artifact, which, like a roaring ice beast, charged towards the Extreme Yin Flame.

At this critical moment, Bai Ying's mind stirred, and the Extreme Yin Flame instantly returned to her palm like a bird returning to its nest. The chilling aura missed its target, dissipating in mid-air, and the Hua family patriarch's magical artifact failed to serve any purpose.

The Hua family patriarch looked at the charred and badly damaged rope artifact in his hand, and felt a sharp pain in his heart. This magical treasure had been with him for many years, and he had devoted countless efforts to it, but now it was destroyed in an instant. How could he not feel heartbroken?

The Hua family members below were still shouting, "Ancestor, use your full strength! Stop wasting time with her, just kill her!" Their voices were filled with anxiety and anger, but they didn't know the helplessness of the Hua family patriarch at this moment.

The Hua family patriarch felt bitter. He longed to deal with Bai Ying as soon as possible, but he had already used all his trump cards and still couldn't defeat this seemingly weak opponent.

The Hua family patriarch pondered to himself that although Bai Ying seemed to have the upper hand, her flames were afraid of ice-type magical artifacts, which might be the key to his victory.

However, he didn't know that Bai Ying withdrew the Extreme Yin Flame not out of fear of ice-type magical artifacts, but because she keenly sensed a wondrous change occurring within it. The originally ghostly blue flame was now slowly changing color, seemingly about to advance after absorbing a large amount of the rope's essence. Bai Ying knew that at this crucial moment, the Extreme Yin Flame must not be disturbed by external forces.

The Hua family patriarch was still racking his brains, thinking that with his years of accumulated combat experience, he would surely find Bai Ying's weakness. But Bai Ying, seeing that he had not used any more moves that she could learn from, had long lost the will to continue to waste with him. She said without any politeness, "It seems you have no new moves. Then you can just die."

Bai Ying's extremely arrogant words were like a bombshell, instantly creating a huge uproar at the scene. Everyone seemed to be frozen in place, their eyes wide with disbelief.

They never expected that Bai Ying would dare to say such a thing even at this point!

"She's completely insane! She barely withstood a few moves from the ancestor, and now she thinks she's invincible? She even dared to boast about killing the ancestor—isn't that just wishful thinking?!"

"Ancestor should have taught her a lesson. He shouldn't have fought her for so long. Just kill her already!"

Even Bai Ying said, "She's hopeless! She doesn't even realize she's about to die! And she still dares to spout nonsense. Even if she kneels down and begs for mercy now, they won't spare her life!"

Zhou Ying's eyes were lifeless, as if all hope had been extinguished at that moment. The Bai family members also shook their heads; in their view, Bai Ying's words were undoubtedly courting death.

Even the Hua family patriarch looked at Bai Ying with amusement. Although he couldn't kill Bai Ying, he never believed that Bai Ying could kill him.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, Bai Ying's hands quickly formed a seal, she chanted incantations, and then suddenly raised her hand, and a seal emitting a mysterious light shot into the sky.

In an instant, the weather changed dramatically.

The once azure sky was instantly shrouded in a thick layer of dark clouds. The seal hovered in the air, radiating dazzling light, within which flashes of lightning seemed to contain earth-shattering power.

That was the true immortal artifact—the Lightning-Attracting Seal.
