Liu Ruyan narrowed her eyes slightly, a hint of seriousness in her gaze.

Recalling her previous experience, she was injured by the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation and was eventually captured alive by Qin Feng.

However, she is no longer the Liu Ruyan of the past, but the Holy Maiden of the Soul Devouring Clan—Lingxi!

Despite the immense power of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, she firmly believed that she would never repeat Liu Ruyan's mistakes.

Liu Ruyan remained silent, instantly raising her aura to its peak, while her body radiated dazzling golden light.

She was like a sacred and inviolable demon god, inspiring awe in all who beheld her.

In the blink of an eye, an enormous golden Dharma image materialized behind Liu Ruyan, radiating a terrifying pressure that was suffocating.

In that instant, the heavens and earth changed color, the wind and clouds surged, and the mountains and rivers trembled.

Qin Feng frowned, his expression shifting between light and dark. When he witnessed the golden Dharma image appear behind Liu Ruyan, his doubts were finally dispelled, and he completely believed that the one controlling this body was not Liu Ruyan herself, but Lingxi, the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Devouring Clan!

After all, if Liu Ruyan had such powerful abilities before, how could she have fallen into his hands so easily?

Just then, Liu Ruyan let out a sharp cry, and with a wave of her hands, the huge golden Dharma image seemed to come alive, carrying endless pressure and a fierce aura, and pounced towards Qin Feng!

Qin Feng was startled, but he did not panic. Instead, he quickly calmed himself down and focused on dealing with the crisis at hand.

With a wave of his right hand and incantations, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation emitted a dazzling light. Countless sharp sword energies surged out like a tide, instantly condensing into a huge sword dragon that bared its fangs and claws as it charged toward Liu Ruyan's golden dharma image.

Immediately afterwards, Qin Feng swung his arms several more times, and more sword energy gathered into sword dragons, roaring as they rushed towards Liu Ruyan's golden Dharma form.

These sword dragons intertwined and coiled in the air, forming a spectacular sword net that clashed fiercely with Liu Ruyan's golden Dharma form.

In an instant, the entire space was filled with sword energy and golden light, and the world changed color.

The attacks from both sides were locked in a stalemate in mid-air, neither willing to yield. The giant dragon formed from sword energy intertwined with the golden Dharma image, unleashing bursts of roaring sounds.

Suddenly, Liu Ruyan gave a soft shout, formed a hand seal, and a mysterious rune flew out from her hands.

The runes disappeared into the golden Dharma image, causing the Dharma image to shine brightly and actually force back several sword dragons.

Upon seeing this, Qin Feng's eyes narrowed, and his hand seals changed continuously, with more and more sword energy flowing into the sword dragon.

He knew perfectly well that if he retreated even slightly at this moment, he would surely be defeated.

As time went on, the contest between the two intensified, and the surrounding space became distorted due to the surge of energy.

During the stalemate, Qin Feng shouted and frantically poured divine power into the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation.

The next moment, the sword formation shone brightly, and the sword energy, like a dragon, directly broke through Liu Ruyan's golden Dharma form.

Liu Ruyan let out a muffled groan, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of her mouth, and her body flew backward.

Taking advantage of the momentum, Qin Feng pressed his attack, stepping through the void and rushing towards Liu Ruyan like a ghost. He stretched out his right hand, his palm shimmering with a strange light, and struck towards Liu Ruyan.

Just as he was about to strike Liu Ruyan, she suddenly disappeared.

Qin Feng frowned slightly, sensing his surroundings, and suddenly detected a dangerous aura. He dodged the attack coming from behind.

Turning around, I saw Liu Ruyan standing not far away, her face pale, but her eyes filled with resentment.

"Qin Feng, today is your death day!" Liu Ruyan said through gritted teeth.

Immediately, Liu Ruyan clasped her hands together, and an extremely terrifying aura burst forth from her petite body!

This aura was like a towering mountain, suppressing the entire Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation and making it extremely oppressive.

The surrounding air seemed to freeze, making it difficult to breathe.

The next moment, Liu Ruyan suddenly pointed her right hand forward, and a huge, golden finger appeared in front of her. This finger was tens of meters long and more than one meter in diameter, and it shimmered with golden light, as if it were cast from gold.

Its shape is similar to a human finger, but it is much larger than a normal finger and appears exceptionally thick and powerful.

As Liu Ruyan moved, the giant finger hurtled towards Qin Feng at an astonishing speed, tearing the air apart and emitting a piercing whistling sound.

Qin Feng's face instantly turned extremely ugly, and a sense of unease and fear welled up in his heart.

He tried to quickly dodge to the side, but was shocked to find that his body seemed to be firmly bound by an invisible and terrifying force, and he could not move at all.

This feeling shocked and left him feeling helpless, because he had never experienced such a powerful binding force before.

Qin Feng's heart sank, realizing that this power was far beyond what ordinary attacks or restrictions could match.

His eyes widened, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead as he nervously pondered a solution.

He decided to try to use the special ability granted to him by the Zhuxian Sword Formation—the ability to teleport at will—in hopes of escaping this predicament.

However, when he concentrated and tried to teleport, he was surprised to find that the ability also failed!

He was completely bewildered, unable to understand why this was happening. Normally, the teleportation ability within the Immortal Execution Sword Formation should be absolutely reliable, but now it was completely useless.

As the enormous finger approached, Qin Feng's heart tightened, and he had no time to think of a countermeasure.

He could only exert all his strength to activate the Purple Star Immortal Robe on his body, hoping to withstand this attack.

The Purple Fairy Robe emitted a layer of purple light, protecting Qin Feng within it, but in front of the giant finger, this layer of light appeared so fragile, as if it could be torn apart at any moment.

Just when Qin Feng thought he was about to die, a mysterious power suddenly emerged.

This force formed a transparent shield, blocking him from the giant finger.

Qin Feng stared at the shield with suspicion, wondering where it came from. In the blink of an eye, strange runes flashed on the shield, like stars in the night sky.

These runes quickly coalesced into an ancient line of text: "In my name, protect this child."

As soon as he finished speaking, the shield shone brightly, deflecting the giant finger back.

Upon seeing this, Liu Ruyan's face showed surprise. She shouted angrily and once again directed her fingers to attack Qin Feng.

However, this time, before the finger could even get close to Qin Feng, it was directly swallowed up by the light on the shield and disappeared without a trace.

Qin Feng, panting, stared at the scene before him, his heart filled with doubt and shock.

He didn't understand the origin of this mysterious shield, nor did he know who had saved his life at the crucial moment.

Could it be...?

Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Qin Feng, and the name of a mysterious powerhouse popped into his mind: Liu Shen!
