The Ice Soul Fairy stood in mid-air, surrounded by nine ice lotuses that emitted a chilling light.
She looked down at Bai Ying from her high position, her voice as cold as frost: "A mere Nascent Soul cultivator dares to covet the inheritance of the Upper Realm?" "A mere Core Formation cultivator dares to covet the inheritance of the Upper Realm?" Her voice was not loud, but it caused the temperature within a hundred miles to drop sharply, and a thick layer of frost to condense on the ground.
Bai Ying's fingertips moved rapidly through the air. She suddenly unleashed the Kongtong Seal, the ancient seal growing larger in the wind, transforming into a golden light curtain that enveloped her. At the same time, her left hand formed a hand seal, and seventy-two spiritual talismans flew out from her sleeve, setting up layers of restrictions within the light curtain.
"A desperate struggle!" The Ice Soul Fairy sneered, and the Frost Moon Wheel suddenly burst forth with dazzling silver light. As the wheel spun, even space itself was torn apart by tiny black cracks. This attack contained all of her power; even cultivators of the same level would not dare to take it head-on.
"boom!"
The cold moon wheel collided with the golden light curtain, unleashing a deafening roar.
Shockingly, the seemingly fragile light screen only shook violently and did not break!
Bai Ying groaned, blood seeping from her seven orifices, but her hand gestures continued unabated. The Berserk Jade Pendant hovered before her chest, frantically drawing upon the stored spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
"Interesting." Elder Blood Nightmare narrowed his crimson eyes, his withered fingers stroking his chin. "A mere Nascent Soul cultivator managed to withstand a full-force attack from a peak Void Refinement expert. The inheritance she received is extraordinary!"
Upon hearing this, the greed in the eyes of the cultivators present intensified.
The sword cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect unconsciously tightened their grip on their sword hilts, while the Gu worms in the poison sacs of the old monsters of the Ten Thousand Poison Valley hissed excitedly. If a Nascent Soul cultivator could fight enemies beyond their level by obtaining the inheritance, then if these Void Refinement experts obtained it... wouldn't they be invincible?
"Do you all know?" a sinister voice suddenly rang out. It was the withered old man from the Xuan Yin Sect, "A few days ago, when this woman snatched the Dao Source Fruit, she was just a junior at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. Now, she's a Nascent Soul cultivator!"
These words were like adding fuel to the fire, causing all the cultivators to gasp in shock. To break through from the Nascent Soul stage to the Deity Transformation stage in just a few days—what an incredible, heaven-defying inheritance!
"What are we waiting for? Let's attack together!" The Crimson Serpent Monster could no longer contain himself and slammed open the stopper of the emerald gourd. Instantly, a torrent of poisonous mist erupted, withering the vegetation in its path and even corroding the rocks with a hissing sound.
As if on cue, dozens of devastating attacks erupted simultaneously. The light from various magical artifacts dyed the sky with vibrant colors. These attacks converged into a destructive torrent, crashing fiercely against the golden light barrier.
The light curtain began to vibrate violently.
"Almost there...almost there..." Bai Ying's consciousness was beginning to fade, and her vision was blurring. She was sustained only by an indomitable will, her fingers almost becoming afterimages as she traced the last few runes in the air. Blood dripped from her fingertips, but it evaporated into a blood mist the moment it touched the runes, merging into the formation.
At this critical moment, a resolute glint flashed in the eyes of True Person Tinglan within the Xuantian Sect's ranks.
He secretly made a hand seal, his face and figure instantly transforming into that of a strange, rogue cultivator. At the same time, he transmitted a message to Wei Ji: "I'm going to assist Fairy Bai. You quickly lead the sect disciples to evacuate. Remember, do not reveal the connection between the Xuantian Sect and this matter."
Upon hearing this, Wei Ji was shocked and hurriedly replied telepathically, "Sect Leader, have you gone mad! Those are dozens of Nascent Soul cultivators and nine Void Refinement experts! Even if you were to intervene, you couldn't possibly survive..."
Master Tinglan's gaze was resolute. He took out an ancient jade talisman from his sleeve, its surface swirling with chilling spiritual energy: "Before leaving, I specifically requested this 'Primordial Void Protector Talisman' from the Supreme Elder. It should be enough to sustain me for a while."
He gazed at Bai Ying, who was struggling to survive, his eyes gleaming: "The path of cultivation is inherently defying the heavens. If we can help Fairy Bai overcome this tribulation, my Xuantian Sect will gain a powerful ally. This is a deal worth taking!"
Master Tinglan had already discovered that Bai Ying had been evolving a formation. Others might have thought that she was using it as a barrier to support herself, but Master Tinglan was assisting in the formation, and he could tell at a glance that the formation Bai Ying was evolving was extraordinary.
Perhaps that formation can kill all these so-called powerful beings!
If he could stall Bai Ying for a while and help her master the formation, he would reap considerable benefits in the future.
Being able to associate with such a cultivator gives the entire Xuantian Sect a strong support.
Before he could finish speaking, Master Tinglan had already transformed into a streak of light and rushed out. Before anyone could react, he suddenly crushed the jade talisman in his hand.
In an instant, a dazzling golden light shot into the sky, transforming into nine golden dragons that circled around Bai Ying, blocking all the incoming attacks.
"Who are you, you scoundrel!" Elder Blood Nightmare roared in fury, his crimson robes billowing even without wind.
Master Tinglan remained silent, forming hand seals. The nine dragons shone with golden light, temporarily blocking the cultivators' attack.
This sudden turn of events gave Bai Ying a precious chance to catch her breath. Hope rekindled in her eyes, and she suddenly increased the speed at which she was drawing runes.
"Thank you for your help, fellow Daoist!" Bai Ying's hoarse voice reached Tinglan Zhenren's ears. "Give me ten more breaths!"
Master Tinglan's expression was solemn, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. Although the Taixu Protective Talisman was powerful, it probably wouldn't last even ten breaths under the siege of so many experts. He bit his tongue, spitting a mouthful of blood essence onto the talisman, and the golden light of the nine dragons immediately intensified by three times.
"Hold on!" Master Tinglan silently chanted in his heart, his gaze fixed firmly on the array runes that were about to be completed.
