During...
Chapter 237 Is your brain filled with nothing but spider lily mud?
Almost at the same time that Shen Yuepo began to sacrifice herself.
On the other side, the self-destruction of Yun Jingyan and Dong Yuan's fusion body also reached the peak of destruction.
Let's die together!
Yun Jingyan's frenzied roar mingled with Dong Yuan's shrill scream.
The fused entity exploded with a deafening roar.
No sound could describe the explosion of that moment; only the annihilation of pure light and darkness, the distortion and collapse of space.
The violent shockwave first engulfed Shen Yuepo and Feng Jin, who were closest to them.
At this critical moment, the spiritual power burning on Shen Yuepo's body suddenly trembled.
A gentle force resolutely pushed Feng Jin outwards from the sea of blood.
"Sinking Moon Soul!"
The roar of the scorching flames was annihilated in the deafening explosion.
"Bang!"
A deafening roar.
The distorted existence formed by the fusion of Yun Jingyan and Dongyuan was completely reduced to nothingness and chaotic energy turbulence in this self-destruction.
Their souls and spirits were annihilated, leaving no trace.
However, their self-destruction was like a spark thrown into boiling oil, completely igniting the sea of blood.
The entire sea of blood roared silently, like a primordial beast that had been enraged.
A massive, dark red wave surged into the sky, carrying an aura of resentment and destruction a hundred times stronger than before, and frantically crashed against the inner and outer barriers set up by Feng Jin.
Shen Yuepo hovered in the center of this turbulent void, just as her figure was about to turn into specks of light.
A warm golden light burst forth from her heart without warning, like the strongest barrier, instantly enveloping her collapsing body.
Shen Yuepo was slightly taken aback, then a slight smile appeared on her lips.
When did he silently plant this protective golden light deep within her soul?
He always did this, quietly and silently, yet protecting her completely.
With a quick thought, Shen Yuepo seized the fleeting moment when the golden light protected her.
He reached in and pulled out an antique, warm-looking jade bottle.
The jade bottle is warm and smooth, yet it exudes a faint aura of sadness belonging to different souls.
She murmured to herself, her voice as soft as a sigh, yet tinged with a hint of irony born of despair:
"Senior brother, I'll trust you this once, please don't let me down..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she subtly pulled out the bottle stopper.
Three teardrops, each with a distinct color and scent, floated out of the bottle and hovered around her.
One drop is Ah Bao's child ghost tear, exuding a century of obsession and sorrow.
The other drop, pure as crystal, contains the purest and most sincere wishes and warmth; it is Lin Cheng's tear of pure goodness.
The last drop, burning like molten gold, echoed with a boundless and unyielding patriotism and a will to sacrifice—this was Jiang Yuan's patriotic tear.
Shen Yuepo pricked her fingertip and squeezed out a drop of her heart's essence blood.
The essence of blood flew out and met the three drops of ghost tears that were suspended in the air.
"With my blood as the guide, and the tears of all living beings as the pledge."
“Obsessions can be overcome, pure goodness can be preserved, and righteousness can be upheld.”
"town!"
The next moment, a miracle happened.
The moment the essence blood and the three drops of ghost tears touched, they did not merge, but instead each burst forth with astonishing light.
Dark, pure white, crimson gold, and moon white light intertwine and rotate, forming a slowly rotating Four Symbols Sealing Light Wheel.
Within the halo, it seemed to reflect the myriad aspects of life, love and hate, family and country, and an incomparably strong suppressive force descended.
The halo slowly descended, imprinting itself upon the churning, turbulent sea of blood.
"Buzz!"
The moment the halo came into contact with the source of darkness, the entire depths of the sea of blood trembled.
The raging waves were indeed suppressed to some extent, and the terrifying impact that had brought the barrier to the brink of collapse was also significantly reduced.
The power released by the light wheel began to organize the chaotic blood sea energy and soothe the boiling resentment, like the most resilient dam, beginning to block the backflow.
A glimmer of hope flashed in Shen Yuepo's eyes.
However, this hope lasted only a moment.
Just as the Four Symbols Sealing Light Wheel had suppressed the turmoil of the Blood Sea Origin to about half its depth, the rotation of the light wheel suddenly stopped.
The four-colored light began to flicker violently, its brightness uncertain, as if it had run out of steam and could no longer penetrate downwards even a fraction.
The suppressed sea of blood seemed to sense the sluggishness of the seal and immediately began a more ferocious counterattack, attempting to break through the light wheel.
The halo hovered in mid-air, locked in a fragile balance with the raging darkness below.
But everyone can see that once the light wheel collapses, the backlash from the sea of blood will be even more terrifying.
Shen Yuepo's illusory figure swayed slightly, and as he looked at the stagnant halo, the last trace of color drained from his face.
She closed her eyes and sighed almost imperceptibly. There was no anger in that sigh, only a sense of helplessness and resigned calm.
"Lin Yanxin, you really are... still as unreliable as ever..."
It seems that even with all three drops of special ghost tears and her essence blood, this is all that can be done.
While temporarily stabilizing half the situation and delaying the eventual collapse, it fails to address the root cause of the problem.
Just as Shen Yuepo resigned herself to her fate, the white jade bracelet on her wrist suddenly burst forth with dazzling light without warning.
Immediately afterwards, in the place where the light shone brightly, a figure staggered out from the void, covered in the dust and anxiety of the mortal world, and landed directly in the sea of blood.
The figure stopped, revealing a face that Shen Yuepo recognized.
"...Senior brother?!" Shen Yuepo almost thought he was hallucinating before his soul was scattered.
Lin Yanxin's demeanor at this moment was completely different from her usual playful and sarcastic manner.
His face was pale and his breathing was somewhat disordered, clearly indicating that forcibly penetrating the Yin and Yang and locating here had taken a huge toll.
As soon as he steadied himself, his gaze swept quickly across Shen Yuepo's face, which was as pale as paper and her breath was weak.
This eased his anxiety a little.
Thankfully, his body is still intact and has not collapsed.
But then he saw the unhealed wound on her palm and sensed the nearly depleted spiritual power and the fluctuations of the sacrificial contract within her body.
Then I saw the Four Symbols Sealing Wheel suspended in mid-air, already in a precarious state after only being half-completed, and the roaring, churning sea of blood below.
The slight relief that had just begun was instantly replaced by even greater anger.
"Chen Yuepo! You've really grown some skills!" Lin Yanxin almost shouted, her voice cracking with urgency and anger.
"If it weren't for the fact that before Master passed away, he specially left a life-sharing restriction deep within our souls, using the white jade bracelet as a bridge, I would have been sleeping until the sky collapsed, and I would never have known that you would dare to come and fill the sea of blood!"
He pointed his other finger at her nose, his fingertip trembling:
"Who is Feng Jin? The Great Emperor of Fengdu! A primordial Netherworld deity! He sealed the Blood Sea with his Imperial Seal and Divine Soul, at most he is trapped here, imprisoned as long as heaven and earth!"
"And you? What are you? Can your body and your soul withstand the erosion and assimilation of a sea of blood for millions of years?"
"This isn't a sacrifice, this is utter annihilation of your soul and spirit, condemned to eternal damnation! Is your brain filled with nothing but mud from the underworld?!"
Shen Yuepo's ears were ringing from his shouts, and her wrists were gripped so tightly they ached, but the pain actually cleared her mind.
