The blood-red aura that had enveloped the Hanyang Lake riverbed was dispelled by a wisp of holy power, and the dispelling speed was quite fast. In just a few minutes, the holy power had already enveloped Zhu Yan.

"Now it's up to you to perform!" Jiang Yuan concealed his aura. From this moment on, he would keep his distance from Gu Anlei. Only in this way would the companion god not suspect this.

Cooperate with Xie Chuan to kill Zhu Yan, and then make a name for yourself!

This was something they had planned from the beginning. Zhu Yan's rules were too strong, and even with the Life Sigh, Gu Anlei could only inflict about 10% damage. But now that her Holy Soul had awakened, things were different. The Life Sigh had also been enhanced accordingly, and she now had the ability to kill Zhu Yan when he was weak.

"After I help you with this, you have to buy me drinks! The kind where I get drunk." Gu Anlei stood up, her clear and bright eyes falling on Jiang Yuan.

"Thanks!"

Jiang Yuan thanked him sincerely, saying that serving a sage is like walking on thin ice. If Gu Anlei were to truly become a disciple of a saint, then helping him would also involve enormous risks.

"Remember to release that saintess. Although she's an enemy, she's also a patient. It'll be more worthwhile to exchange her for some supplies!" Gu Anlei definitely won't be able to have any contact with Jiang Yuan for a while after this separation, so she still needs to give him the necessary instructions.

"Okay, I'll give you half of the supplies we get in return!" Jiang Yuan joked.

Take care of yourself!

Gu Anlei's speed increased rapidly, and she had already traveled over a thousand meters away after finishing speaking. Her strength had increased explosively, and in the blink of an eye, she had reached the ninth level of the True Spirit Realm. She was only one step away from becoming a Heavenly Spirit Realm cultivator.

Jiang Yuan did not get too close. He remained on the very edge of Hanyang Lake. The current situation was no longer of any use to him. He only needed to wait for Zhu Yan to be divided up, and then he could complete the will to collect the marks of the dead.

However, things unfolded much as he had planned. Zhu Yan stood up again, but this time it wasn't because it had regained its strength, but because it was splitting apart.

The former Ten Ferocious Beasts were completely divided between the two groups. Chi Yu possessed Zhu Yan's complete physical body and the energy gathered from most of the divine blood, while Xie Chuan relied on the Mark of the Dead to seize half of Zhu Yan's cultivation technique and most of its life force.

Originally powerful enough to rival the Nascent Soul Realm, Zhu Yan was reduced to the Profound God Realm by the actions of the two. Although it still fears no ordinary God Realm cultivators due to the strength of its innate beast body, the current situation is extremely unfavorable for it.

"retreat!"

The beastmen shouted for a retreat in a booming voice. The Zhu Yan needed to rest and recuperate to regain its peak condition; they had no other choice.

Both the Holy Spirit Clan and the Human Clan chose to strike while the enemy was down, with their main forces even pressing Zhu Yan directly in front of them.

"You've gone too far!" Zhu Yan's massive body moved, and now only Chi Yu controlled it.

"Who was it that made those outrageous claims about wiping out our Holy Spirit Clan?" Li Yanxin sneered as she looked at Zhu Yan.

Akabane gritted his teeth, but faced with four or five supreme gods, he chose to swallow his anger and flee the place. Compared to losing his life, the momentary pleasure was too insignificant.

"You killed over 80,000 of my human race's new students and still want to escape? If I let you have your way, then my title of vice dean is not worth giving to a dog!" Feng Qingzi fiercely attacked Zhu Yan.

However, someone arrived even faster than him—Gu Anlei.

"A sigh for life!"

Gu Anlei had been lurking nearby, waiting for Zhu Yan to weaken. Finally, at the last moment, she received Xie Chuan's telepathic message: Zhu Yan had less than 15% of his life force remaining.

She didn't know how much damage Zhu Yan could be immune to from the Sigh of Life, but with the Exquisite Sacred Soul, that number would definitely not be less than eleven percent.

"Who are you? Don't be impulsive!"

Feng Qingzi was shocked, but Gu Anlei had already accelerated to her limit, and even though he was a beat too slow, he was unable to stop her.

"True Spirit Realm, it's the True Spirit Realm again! I'll tear you to pieces!"

Akabane felt nauseous whenever he saw someone in the True Spirit Realm lately. He had few rivals since entering Seoul, but he had been defeated several times in the True Spirit Realm.

From that bastard named Qingmu, to Xie Chuan who is hiding in Zhu Yan's body waiting for a chance to be resurrected, and now another True Spirit Realm cultivator dares to challenge him. If he doesn't show his power, the beast race will really lose all face.

“The laws of heaven and earth—three heads and six arms—all forces unite into one!”

Zhu Yan suddenly transformed into a different form. It was not only larger, but it also gained two heads and four arms, and it viciously slapped at Gu Anlei.

The three heads and six arms delivered three separate blows, each with a power comparable to that of a god.

Seeing this, Feng Qingzi was shocked. He exclaimed that the other party was reckless and should not have attacked Zhu Yan like that.

However, a weakened man on the ground managed to control Zhu Yan for half a second at the crucial moment, and Gu Anlei's Sigh of Life finally reached the right distance and hit Zhu Yan as she wished. However, after the Sigh of Life was hit, she still had to endure Zhu Yan's wrath.

"My holy soul, shine!"

Life sighs, currently deducting 16% of the target's maximum health.

When Gu Anlei was hit by the three-headed, six-armed creature, she smiled contentedly; the Zhu Yan was now useless.

"Compassion activated. Current damage value exceeds the limit, and 20% of health has been automatically deducted."

"Compassion activated. Current damage value exceeds the limit, and 20% of health has been automatically deducted."

"Compassion activated. Current damage value exceeds the limit, and 20% of health has been automatically deducted."

Three times in a row, Zhu Yan struck, each blow nearly killing Gu Anlei. However, the existence of the Sigh of Life became Gu Anlei's last lifeline.
