The cave was completely silent.
The only remaining cultivator at the Void Refinement stage is now trembling with fear.
He never imagined he would be forced into such a desperate situation.
An indescribable sense of regret filled his heart.
Why would he be so foolish as to come to a place like this?
Why bother offending Bai Ying?
In fact, he had heard rumors about Bai Ying before. It was said that she had single-handedly killed more than thirty Nascent Soul stage cultivators. When he heard this, he was full of disdain, thinking that she had relied on the power of a true immortal rather than her own abilities, and was nothing more than a fame-seeking person.
After all, achievements gained with the help of external forces are not worth mentioning.
But he never considered that being able to skillfully borrow the power of a true immortal was itself an extraordinary ability.
Only then did he realize the fatal mistake he had made.
He only saw Bai Ying's low cultivation level, but completely ignored her intelligence.
The simple truth of "the victor is king, the loser is villain" pierced his heart like a sharp dagger.
Despite possessing extraordinary cultivation, his arrogance and underestimation of his opponent led him to unwittingly step into Bai Ying's carefully laid trap. Now, trapped in a desperate situation, he is left with no one to turn to for help and can only await death in endless regret and fear.
No!
He didn't want to die!
The cultivator at the Void Refinement stage suddenly knelt down. He said to Bai Ying, "I'm willing to offer you my soul blood, please spare my life! As long as you can take me out of here, I'll give you anything!"
Bai Ying had clearly anticipated his words and was visibly tempted.
After all, her biggest enemy now is that late-stage Void Refinement cultivator from Huayang Sect. His strength is unfathomable, and he has always put her under great pressure.
If one could recruit a cultivator at the Void Refinement stage as a subordinate, it would be like adding wings to a tiger. When facing that powerful enemy, one would no longer be as afraid as before, and might even be able to contend with him in terms of strength.
Just as Bai Ying was about to agree, a hand emanating an eerie aura pierced through the body of the Void Refinement cultivator without any resistance. The five fingers of that hand were like sharp steel hooks, instantly squeezing the cultivator's heart tightly. Accompanied by a chilling "crunch," the heart was crushed.
The cultivator in the Void Refinement stage stared wide-eyed, his eyes filled with disbelief and extreme fear. His mouth gaped open, as if he wanted to utter a final cry, but he only coughed up a mouthful of blood. His body fell straight backward like a kite with a broken string.
The True Dragon cultivator slowly walked over. How could he possibly allow Bai Ying to receive such powerful assistance?
He cruelly drained all the spiritual power and life force from the cultivator in the Void Refinement stage, then threw him on the ground like trash.
Then he looked at Bai Ying.
"Hand over that life-restoring treasure! Then take me out of here! You don't actually think I can't kill you in a place like this, do you?!"
Bai Ying met his gaze without fear, her eyes equally cold. "If you want to kill me, then come on!"
The True Dragon cultivator's face instantly turned extremely ugly. "I'm giving you face, but you don't want it. Then don't blame me for being impolite! Once I kill you and get your life-restoring treasure, I'll naturally find a way out!"
As he spoke fiercely, he rapidly formed hand seals and chanted incantations.
In the blink of an eye, a long spear-shaped magical artifact emitting a ghostly light slowly appeared before him. As he continuously poured in his spiritual power, an exceptionally terrifying pressure instantly spread outwards from him.
Upon seeing this, Bai Ying's eyes flashed with surprise. She knew how terrifying this True Dragon cultivator was, but she hadn't expected him to be able to use spiritual power in this space.
However, Bai Ying felt no fear. When she used the recovery jade pendant to activate the array earlier, she had already discovered that, with the help of the recovery jade pendant, she could also use spiritual power in this space.
Although her spiritual power was subject to many restrictions in this space, preventing her from using it as freely as she could in the outside world, with the blessing of the recovery jade pendant, the spiritual power she could mobilize was obviously much greater than that of this true dragon cultivator.
Although this True Dragon cultivator could use spiritual power, he was clearly subject to too many restrictions, and could at most maintain his power at the early Nascent Soul stage.
The True Dragon cultivator poured his spiritual power into the long spear magic weapon without reservation, causing the spear to shine brightly. He roared and thrust the spear at Bai Ying with all his might.
"Go to hell!"
Seeing Bai Ying's solemn expression, the True Dragon cultivator couldn't help but burst into laughter. "You fool, do you really think you can deal with me? You even made me swear an oath of inner demons! Let me tell you, my True Dragon clan has never feared an oath of inner demons! Today I will surely kill you!"
However, just when he thought victory was assured, Bai Ying remained calm and composed. With a gentle wave of her right hand, a small incense burner appeared in her hand. With a flick of her wrist, the incense burner shot straight towards the True Dragon cultivator's artifact like a shooting star.
With a loud "bang," the two magical artifacts collided violently in mid-air, bursting forth with dazzling light.
A powerful surge of spiritual energy emanated from the point of impact, spreading outwards and forming visible ripples.
The True Dragon cultivator felt a powerful force emanating from the spear, which made his arm go numb and caused him to involuntarily take two steps back. His face was filled with shock, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
"How is that possible?"
He used a secret technique of the Dragon Clan and paid a huge price to use spiritual power, so why can Bai Ying do it too?
Bai Ying looked at him expressionlessly and said with a hint of sarcasm:
"You're not the only one who can use spiritual power in this space!"
