At this moment, under the illumination of the faint golden light, the dozen or so sword spirit puppets merged into one, and the power of that sword even reached the realm of a sword saint.
This is obviously not a combined attack technique, but the mysterious power contained in the faint golden light itself.
Without time to think, Mu Hanyan tightened her grip on the Hanxiao Sword once more. If Xia Youchen were a Beastmaster Sword Saint in his prime, he might have been able to block the blow, but with his current injuries, he simply couldn't resist. And Xiao Qiongqi had only been resurrected for a little over two years; even with his awakened innate abilities, he wouldn't have been able to gain any advantage.
But this time, before she could make a move, Ye Lanxuan had already flown forward and slashed at her with the Thousand Breaking Sword.
With a loud "bang", a ball of light wrapped in dust shot up into the sky, and the whole earth shook violently.
The dust gradually settled, and Ye Lanxun's tall figure stood there, unharmed.
Such a result was not surprising, but what was surprising was that the dozen or so sword spirit puppets on the opposite side did not retreat a single step.
Although a trickle of blood slowly seeped out from the corners of their mouths, such injuries obviously could not take their lives, nor would they affect their combat effectiveness.
Ye Lanxuan looked at the Thousand Breaking Sword in his hand and frowned slightly.
Mu Hanyan and the others' hearts sank slightly. They had witnessed the power of Ye Lanxun's Thousand Destruction Formation more than once before. Even the Nether Beast Xu Ming's Moon Devouring Nether Prison had been easily dispelled by his Law-Breaking Sword. However, against these Sword Spirit Puppet Zombies, it had no effect at all.
The faint golden light still illuminated them, and the long swords in their hands still released a majestic aura.
"Anyone who trespasses into the forbidden area will be killed without mercy!" The mechanical voice was heard again beside the altar.
A dozen black-robed swordsmen left the group and approached the previously stabbed sword spirit puppets, raising their swords. The wounds on their wrists remained, but no blood flowed out.
And their eyes became as empty and lifeless as those of the sword spirit puppets.
Mu Hanyan felt a slight chill in her heart. It turned out that after sacrificing all their blood, they also turned into sword spirit puppets.
Subconsciously looking towards the altar, he saw that everyone had cut their wrists at the same time, using their Qi to force the blood into a pool of blood. It looked like they would not stop until every last drop of blood had been shed, but their chanting was becoming louder and louder, and more and more crazy.
Their bodies were trembling violently, their black clothes drenched in sweat, creating streams of steam. Clearly, these individuals were enduring immense pain, some even collapsing to the ground, unable to endure the agony. Even so, they continued to chant.
In the blood pool, the bright red blood surged like boiling water, quickly condensing into a blood bead the size of a pigeon egg, with golden halos floating on it.
Suddenly, golden light shone out from the blood bead and shone onto the palace gate, forming a complex and intricate rune pattern.
The entire palace shook violently.
"Oh no, it's the Primordial Contract!" Looking at the golden runes on the palace gate, Ye Lanxuan suddenly exclaimed.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Lanxun attacked the sword spirit puppets again.
Mu Hanyan and others were shocked and attacked as well.
Although Ye Lanxuan didn't have time to explain too much, Mu Hanyan and the others still felt a strong sense of unease. If they were not mistaken, this palace must be hiding some extremely terrifying ancient beast or killing weapon. The so-called Primordial Contract should be used to control this beast or killing weapon.
Although I don't know the origins of these men in black or what their conspiracy is, just seeing how evil they act, I know that it would definitely not be a good thing if I let them succeed.
"Boom" another loud noise.
This time, Ye Lanxuan used all his strength, and several weaker sword spirit puppets were shattered to pieces by his sword, but immediately, several more sword spirit puppets took their place.
Golden beams of light shone down from the palace, illuminating them like golden swords, leaving them riddled with wounds. Strangely, they didn't die. Instead, powerful forces surged into their bodies along with the golden beams of light.
Their entire bodies trembled violently. Even though they had become sword spirit puppets and could no longer feel pain or fear, their bodies' instincts remained. Because of the extreme pain, their eyes instinctively filled with bloodshot, and they let out muffled roars, like wounded beasts.
However, their aura was constantly increasing, and the power of the sword beams they swung out together was also a bit stronger.
Beside them, Mu Hanyan, Hua Yue and others also performed sword techniques at the same time, relying on the five magical weapons to increase their strength to the extreme. However, even Ye Lanxun could not easily kill these sword spirit puppets, so how could they do it?
For a moment, the sky was filled with sword energy, and Mu Hanyan and others were caught in a tough battle.
The chanting continued to echo through the valley, and the palace shook more and more violently, with huge rocks tumbling down from the cliffs. Within the blood pool, the blood bead radiating golden light spiraled upward, releasing a dazzling golden glow.
On the palace gate, the golden runes of the Primordial Contract became even more brilliant and dazzling, and the endless power of heaven and earth surged in from all directions.
It looks like the Primordial Contract should be completed soon, right?
"Mother..." Ye Yanran let out a heartbroken cry and fell to the ground weakly.
On the altar, her mother's life force was fading rapidly. If nothing unexpected happened, the moment the Honghuang Contract was completed would be the moment when she would die.
Mu Hanyan was extremely anxious, and she swung the Hanxiao Sword at the sword spirit puppets blocking her way. However, even Ye Lanxun found it difficult to defeat these sword spirit puppets in a short time, so how could she possibly break through their defense line?
"This is called the Primordial Contract. It turns out that this is really the art of contract." At this moment, Qu Shanling was talking to himself, and he looked like he was sleepwalking.
Of course, no one cared whether he was sleepwalking or not at this time, as long as he didn't rush up and cause trouble in a fit of rage.
Qu Shanling paced back and forth like a sleepwalker, seemingly struggling with thoughts or memories. Suddenly, Qu Shanling stopped and formed a series of hand gestures.
"The divine power of the Heavenly Seal, the divine forbidden technique!" With Qu Shanling's light shout, a hand seal flew out and was imprinted on the contract rune on the palace gate.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet, as if the entire world was plunged into an eerie tranquility.
