Seven halos of light shone behind Bai Ying, each containing a different illusory image of a divine artifact: the Xuanyuan Sword exuded a sharpness capable of cleaving heaven and earth, the Shennong Cauldron radiated an aura that could refine all things, and the Kunlun Mirror refracted an illusion of intersecting time and space... Although these projections were less than one ten-thousandth the power of the original body, the ancient pressure they emitted caused the spiritual energy within a hundred miles to solidify.
"Seven Deadly Souls Annihilation Formation..." Bai Ying's lips curled into a cold smile.
This was the peerless killing formation she had just completed at the cost of her life.
Using fragmented ancient runes as a guide and drawing upon the oppressive aura of the upper realm within the cave, this legendary, peerless killing formation, jointly activated by seven ancient divine artifacts, is recreated.
Even though there are no real divine artifacts in this formation anymore, only phantoms made up of these artifacts, it is more than enough to kill these cultivators from the lower realm!
"This is..." Master Tinglan weakly opened his eyes, his pupils suddenly contracting.
He saw Bai Ying standing alone at the center of the formation, with seven light wheels slowly rotating behind her, each rotation bringing with it a devastating spiritual storm.
Before the attacks of the nine Void Refinement experts could even get close, they were crushed into dust by the divine artifact pressure emanating from the light wheel!
Wei Ji, watching from afar, was utterly shocked, his legs going weak uncontrollably.
He never expected to witness such a breathtaking scene.
The woman before him repeatedly shocked him in a way that was beyond words, each time exceeding his expectations and even more exaggerated than the last.
"Perhaps... she really can..." Wei Ji muttered to himself unconsciously. A crazy idea took root in his mind.
This girl, who has defied all reason time and time again, may truly achieve a feat that no one in this world has accomplished in thousands of years: ascending to the upper realm!
Just as Wei Ji was in turmoil, Bai Ying's clear, cold voice boomed like thunder from the heavens:
"Don't you all desire to inherit this legacy?" She stood in mid-air, her white robes fluttering, nine halos of light swirling behind her, making her appear like a goddess descending to earth. Every word she uttered resonated with the heavens and earth, causing the valley to tremble. "Then come and experience it for yourselves!"
At this moment, the Seven Deadly Souls Extinction Array has been fully deployed, and an invisible barrier has enveloped all cultivators within a ten-mile radius.
The moment the formation was formed, the world changed color abruptly. The originally clear sky was stained with blood, and the surrounding spiritual energy began to surge wildly.
"What's going on?!" Elder Blood Nightmare's expression changed drastically as he was horrified to discover that his spiritual energy was beginning to stagnate.
The other Void Refinement stage experts also changed their expressions drastically, their keen intuition, honed over thousands of years of cultivation, was frantically warning them.
Suddenly, a reckless Nascent Soul cultivator leaped out of the crowd, his face contorted with greed as he shouted, "Bai Ying, don't think you can scare us away with your tricks! We've got your inheritance!" He licked his lips, his eyes gleaming with madness. "Not just the inheritance, everything you have, we want it all..."
Before the words were finished, the phantom of the Xuanyuan Sword suddenly shone brightly.
A golden sword aura flashed like lightning, abruptly silencing the Nascent Soul cultivator. His body froze on the spot, his face still frozen in a greedy expression, but the next second he suddenly exploded with a "bang," turning into a cloud of blood mist!
This scene made everyone gasp in shock.
"This...how is this possible..." The old monster's voice trembled.
The cultivator who was instantly killed, though insignificant in their eyes, was still a powerful Nascent Soul stage cultivator who dominated a region, a grandmaster-level figure in any sect. Yet, such a person didn't even have a chance to resist before being easily killed by a single sword aura!
"White Fairy, be careful!" Master Tinglan warned hoarsely, despite her injuries, "That Blood Nightmare Elder's poisoning skills are extremely formidable; it's practically impossible to defend against, even a Void Refinement cultivator would find it difficult to withstand!"
Elder Blood Nightmare grinned maliciously, a faint green mist swirling between his withered fingers. "You know your stuff, kid," he drawled sinisterly, his eyes gleaming with malice. "Too bad, too bad... you've already fallen for it! My 'Soul-Eating Powder' is colorless and odorless; you were already poisoned while you were speaking..."
Before she could finish speaking, the illusory image of the Shennong Cauldron behind Bai Ying suddenly trembled violently, emitting a mysterious, eerie blue light. That light flowed through the void like a living thing, absorbing all the invisible toxins in the air into the cauldron, like rivers flowing into the sea. Even more terrifying, the cauldron suddenly inverted, spraying out the purified poisonous mist at a hundred times its original concentration!
"What! No! This is impossible!" Elder Blood Nightmare was terrified and hastily summoned dozens of rare antidotes, even throwing out his natal magic weapon, the "Ten Thousand Poison Banner." However, the poison, enhanced by the Shennong Cauldron, had already undergone a qualitative change, and its potency was beyond his comprehension.
His skin began to fester at a visible rate, first his hands turning into pus and blood, then his facial muscles peeling away piece by piece, revealing his stark white bones. Inky black blood seeped from his seven orifices, and even his primordial spirit was being corroded by the toxins, emitting a shrill scream.
"This... is impossible... I clearly... refined all poisons, how could any poison backfire like this..." Elder Blood Nightmare knelt on the ground, staring incredulously at his melting body. This master of poisons, who had dominated the cultivation world for thousands of years and struck fear into the hearts of countless cultivators, had ultimately died from his own signature deadly poison, his very soul unable to escape, utterly destroyed!
This scene sent chills down the spines of all the cultivators present, sending a shiver down their spines.
If the death of the previous Nascent Soul cultivator could be considered an accident, then the fall of Elder Blood Nightmare completely shattered their hopes.
This is a genuine Void Refinement stage expert! In any sect, he would be a patriarch-level figure!
"Run! Run quickly!" The Crimson Serpent Old Monster's voice suddenly rose, becoming so sharp it almost cracked.
His withered hand slammed down on his waist, and a jade-green "Ten Thousand Poisons Sword" was drawn from its sheath. As soon as the sword appeared, it spewed out billowing poisonous mist. The old monster leaped onto the sword, about to transform into a green rainbow and soar into the sky.
Other cultivators also unleashed their most treasured life-saving magic weapons... No one cared about inheritance opportunities anymore; survival was the top priority!
However, Bai Ying simply raised her delicate hand, and seven beams of light suddenly burst forth, piercing the sky. The light intertwined into a net, sealing off the entire area within a hundred miles.
Her voice was soft, yet it pierced everyone's soul like the coldest ice in the underworld: "Trying to leave now? Too late."
