The moment Bai Ying received the jade pendant, she felt a sense of lightness throughout her body. The corrosive force that had been clinging to her like a leech ceased instantly, as if it had never existed.
Those forces that once wreaked havoc now have no effect on her whatsoever.
Moreover, she keenly sensed that she had established a strange connection with this mysterious space and had become its master.
At this moment, she could manipulate the corrosive power permeating the space at will, turning it into a deadly weapon to attack any creature here.
Bai Ying's gaze flashed like lightning, instantly locking onto the True Dragon cultivator not far away. Without hesitation, she aimed the jade pendant, which emitted a strange luster, at him. She focused all the corrosive power controlling the area onto him.
Almost at the same instant, a bloodcurdling scream burst forth from the True Dragon cultivator's mouth.
The corrosive power emanating from his body suddenly increased exponentially, becoming countless times stronger than before. In the blink of an eye, the flesh and blood on his body rapidly melted away under this terrifying erosion, disappearing completely. Even his hard bones were covered with dense cracks, as if they would shatter completely at any moment.
However, being a top cultivator at the Integration stage, even after suffering such a severe injury, he still did not breathe his last.
"You little brat, how could you be so vicious! Even if I die, I won't let you have your way; I'll drag you down with me!"
The true dragon cultivator's form transformed back into human shape. At this moment, his hair was disheveled, his eyes were bloodshot, and his face was distorted, making him appear completely insane.
Extreme anger and resentment drove him to bite his finger hard and recklessly unleash a forbidden technique of the dragon race.
His eyes were filled with madness and determination as he directed all the power of the forbidden technique at Bai Ying.
As a powerful cultivator in the Integration Stage, he was usually very imposing in the entire cultivation world, commanding respect wherever he went. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he could walk sideways.
But today, he never expected that he would be outmaneuvered and tricked by Bai Ying, a junior whom he considered as insignificant as an ant, and fall into such a desperate situation, about to lose his life.
He will never let that bastard get his way!
The True Dragon cultivator stared at Bai Ying and let out a chilling laugh. At the same time, his body began to expand rapidly, his once-fitting clothes now stretched taut, making a hissing tearing sound. Beneath every inch of his skin, a world-destroying power surged like a raging undercurrent, wildly churning and crashing, as if about to break free from its cocoon and drag everything around it into an abyss of no return.
Upon seeing this, a strange glint flashed in Bai Ying's eyes. She instantly understood that this True Dragon cultivator was about to self-destruct!
The power of a cultivator in the Integration Stage self-destructing is unimaginable, enough to trigger a cataclysmic disaster.
In an instant, it was as if a golden sun had burst forth from the body of the True Dragon cultivator, and the dazzling and scorching golden light, like a surging tide, surged out of his body without reservation.
That dazzling gold color was the power released by him igniting his own Dragon Ball at all costs. As the core and foundation of the Dragon Clan, once the Dragon Ball is ignited, the process of self-destruction is like a runaway horse, and there is absolutely no way to reverse it.
The entire cave, impacted by this overwhelming force, began to shake violently and wildly, like a lone boat tossed about in a storm.
The huge stones that were originally firmly embedded in the cave ceiling loosened and fell under the impact, crashing down with tremendous force and stirring up a cloud of dust.
The ground was also unable to bear the weight, and ferocious cracks like demonic claw marks spread rapidly, radiating wildly in all directions from the True Dragon cultivator, as if to tear the entire cave apart completely.
The True Dragon cultivator's face was filled with an almost frenzied excitement, as if he could see Bai Ying and himself turning to ashes together.
"You schemed and plotted, but you never expected to die here today! You wanted me dead, so how could I let you live? Let's die together!"
He laughed wildly while staring intently at Bai Ying, his eyes blazing with fury, as if he wanted to devour her alive.
If he hadn't underestimated this bastard, how could his illustrious reputation have ended up in such a place!
He wanted to shatter Bai Ying's soul so that he would never have the chance to be reincarnated!
However, what happened next completely stunned him.
Instead of panicking, Bai Ying's face showed a mocking smile.
What's going on?
The True Dragon cultivator was filled with doubt and subconsciously looked at Bai Ying again. He saw her immediately and accurately throw a crystal-clear ice jade pendant into one of the array's focal points in the cave.
Immediately afterwards, a mysterious light flashed, and Bai Ying vanished from her spot in an instant.
The True Dragon cultivator was struck dumb, frozen in place, his mind blank.
How is this possible? She actually escaped!
How could she run away!
An indescribable sense of frustration surged wildly from the depths of his heart.
He used his last ounce of strength, risking his life in the fight, hoping to perish together with Bai Ying, but he never expected that she would disappear so easily right before his eyes.
"Ah!" A roar filled with despair and resentment burst forth from the depths of his throat.
In that instant, his body could no longer withstand the impact of the violent power within him.
"Boom!" A deafening roar, seemingly capable of tearing the sky apart, suddenly erupted, the sound waves rolling and sweeping across the entire cave.
His body, impacted by this unparalleled power, was instantly shattered like a pile of fragile sand. Countless pieces of flesh and bone scattered like snowflakes, gradually dissipating in this chaotic and spiritually disordered space, leaving only a scene of devastation.
After Bai Ying was teleported away, the moment her feet touched the ground, she dared not delay for a moment. With a light touch of her toes, she sped away into the distance like an arrow released from a bow.
She was filled with fear, knowing that the power of a Nascent Soul cultivator's self-destruction was enough to cause a cataclysmic disaster. She was terrified that the True Dragon cultivator's self-destruction would cause the entire mountain to explode, dragging her into an abyss of no return.
Sure enough, they hadn't run far when a deafening roar came from behind them. The sound was so loud that it made the earth tremble.
Bai Ying paused, turning back in horror. However, the scene before her was far beyond her expectations. The mountain that housed the cave had not exploded or collapsed as she had anticipated. Everything around the cave looked exactly as it had when she entered, as tranquil as if the terrifying scene had never happened.
Bai Ying was filled with doubt. She waited outside the cave for a while before slowly walking towards the cave again.
The moment you step into the cave, a strong stench of blood hits you. The spot where the True Dragon cultivator had stood is now empty, with only a mess on the ground, scattered with bits of flesh and bone fragments—the remains left behind after the True Dragon cultivator's self-destruction.
The once mighty and powerful cultivator at the Integration Stage was reduced to nothingness and vanished into the world in a self-destruction.
