"You guys hold on for a moment, I'll try again." Sha Mingyuan took a deep breath and continued to perform the hand seal.
Mu Hanyan frowned. Looking at the situation, it would be impossible to expect Sha Mingyuan to open the restricted space.
"Taotie, break the restriction by force!" Mu Hanyan said to Taotie. At this point, she no longer had time to carefully consider a solution and could only force it open.
"What if this broken seal is damaged, what will happen to your ancient tree of life?" Taotie said hesitantly.
"I can't care about that anymore!" Mu Hanyan said without hesitation.
If the Qiankun Seal of Life and Death was damaged, other methods could be found to restore the Ancient Tree of Life. Furthermore, there was a chance of repair. However, if the Evil Monarch was allowed to absorb and refine the aura of the dead, constantly increasing his strength, the Continent of Gods would be devastated. Although Mu Hanyan had no compassion for the world, she was absolutely unwilling to disregard the lives of hundreds of millions of people for her own selfish reasons.
"Alright!" Taotie roared and transformed back into its original form, rushing straight towards the forbidden barrier.
"Boom!" The entire restricted space trembled violently, and a ripple-like light and shadow spread out from the barrier space.
After a while, the restricted space returned to calm, but the barrier space was not damaged at all and was still as solid as a rock.
Taotie was stunned for a moment, roared again, and crashed into the forbidden barrier.
The restricted space shook violently again, sending out ripples of light, but when everything calmed down, the barrier was still intact.
Taotie tried several times in succession, but got the same result every time. Finally, he had no choice but to stop.
Mu Hanyan and the others exchanged glances, realizing they had underestimated the power of this divine artifact. Even Taotie, in his true form, a formidable force comparable to a Spiritual Priest, couldn't break this spatial restriction. And this was only a fragment. A complete Qiankun Seal of Life and Death would surely be incredibly formidable.
Of course, now is not the time to marvel at the power of this divine weapon, but to worry about how to break the space restriction.
Inside the City Lord's Mansion, more than a dozen Sha family members and two patriarchs lay in a pool of blood. Fei Changle and the others were also wounded, constantly retreating towards the gate under the onslaught of the undead puppets. Fortunately, Pingchuan City was built extremely solidly, and the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion was constructed of two-foot-thick granite. Otherwise, they would never have been able to hold out until now. But once they retreated through the gate, they lost their last barrier and could no longer withstand the siege of the undead puppets.
"Lord City Lord, we can't hold on any longer." Fei Changle shouted urgently. The other members of the Sha family and several family heads who held on to the end were also extremely anxious.
Not only were they anxious, but Sha Mingyuan felt heartbroken as he saw fewer and fewer people alive around him.
"The universe is boundless, life and death are annihilated, break them for me!" Sha Mingyuan burned his soul at all costs and used all his strength to perform the last hand gesture.
However, the Qiankun Seal of Life and Death remained unchanged.
"Puff!" Sha Mingyuan could no longer hold on, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and fell straight backwards.
"Father!" The children who were protecting him stretched out their hands at the same time and supported him.
The hearts of Fei Changle and others also fell into an icy valley at this moment. They knew that it was over, it was completely over!
"Go, go quickly, fight our way out!" Sha Mingyuan bit his tongue, forced himself to wake up, and rushed out the door.
"Kill, kill!" Fei Changle and others rushed out side by side with grief on their faces.
Unable to open the space restriction, Mu Hanyan is obviously no longer reliable. Only by breaking out of the City Lord's Mansion can there be a glimmer of hope.
Unfortunately, they had struggled to hold on until now, but were already exhausted. How could they possibly break out of the encirclement? In the blink of an eye, dozens more people fell in a pool of blood. Only Sha Mingyuan, Fei Changle, and several of his children and trusted followers continued to rush out.
At this time, Sha Mingyuan was as fierce as a mad tiger, his body covered with wounds and bleeding, but he was completely unaware of it. He just slashed at the undead puppet blocking his way with one sword after another.
The family business and the restoration of glory have all become mirages. His only thought now is to escort his children out of Pingchuan City and preserve the last bloodline for the Sha family.
Under his life-threatening attack, the undead puppets blocking his way fell one after another. Fei Changle and others followed closely beside him and rushed out of the door step by step.
As long as they rushed out of the door, they could scatter and escape. Although these undead puppets knew no pain and were not afraid of death, they were not fast and might not be able to catch up with them. Fei Changle and others also saw hope of survival again.
But at this moment, Cang Liao finally took action.
A long sword of ancient style was slowly unsheathed. Although it had gone through millions of years, the sword body was still as smooth as new, emitting a cold light.
"This sword hasn't drunk human blood for a million years. It's your honor to die under this sword." Cang Liao said in a hoarse voice.
After saying that, he slowly swung his sword.
A faint blood mist condensed and formed the shadow of a giant sword that was nearly ten feet long and half a foot wide, flowing with a thick blood color, pressing towards Sha Mingyuan and others. The enormous pressure was like huge rocks weighing thousands of pounds, bombarding from all directions.
"Oh no, retreat quickly!" Sha Mingyuan exclaimed, protecting his children and retreating.
Unfortunately, he was still a step too slow.
"Puff puff puff..." With a sound like a ball exploding, several descendants and close confidants of Sha Mingyuan and Fei Changle exploded into a bloody mist, with pieces of broken limbs and arms flying everywhere.
Although Sha Mingyuan and Fei Changle were stronger and had quicker reactions, they were also knocked back by the tremendous force and hit the wall hard. Their internal organs were shattered and even their heart meridians were broken. They only avoided immediate death thanks to their strong cultivation.
Severely injured, the two men were unable to utter a word. They just looked at the broken limbs on the ground, tears streaming down their faces, their hearts dead.
Cang Liao walked slowly into the hall, but did not even glance at the two of them. His gaze stayed on the Qiankun Seal of Life and Death that Sha Mingyuan dropped on the ground.
"Hahahaha, Qiankun Seal of Life and Death, this million years of waiting was not in vain, I actually found Qiankun Seal of Life and Death, hahahaha!" After a long time, Cang Liao suddenly laughed towards the sky.
Before the laughter died down, Cang Liao sat down cross-legged and quickly made a hand gesture. Mysterious rune lights and shadows fell towards the Qiankun Seal of Life and Death.
"What is he doing?" In the restricted space, Long Wudang looked at Cang Liao's actions and asked in confusion.
"It seems like he is refining the Qiankun Seal of Life and Death." Taotie said with a frown.
Sha Mingyuan's strength was limited, and his comprehension of the Qiankun Life and Death Seal was also limited. He could only imprison them within the Qiankun Life and Death Seal, and then he could do nothing to them. His inability did not mean that Chang Liao was also helpless. If he allowed Chang Liao to refine the Qiankun Life and Death Seal, wouldn't they be helpless?
