The massive, mangled body of the Kunpeng floated halfway above the sea of blood. Its once sky-covering wings were now shattered and broken, feathers fallen off, leaving only its jagged skeleton piercing the sky.
The skull of the Taotie appeared and disappeared amidst the waves of blood, and sharp fangs remained in its enormous mouth.
The Candle Dragon's winding, twisting body stretched across the center of the sea of blood, its eyes already hollow...
Looking at the unimaginable scene before him, Qin Luo's mind went blank for a moment.
The eerie sea of blood surged with viscous waves, and the floating remains of divine beasts exuded an aura of decay and antiquity. Every shocking scene relentlessly assaulted his perception, causing his thoughts to momentarily stagnate.
Just then, a sudden change occurred. Countless streams of blood energy churned and rose wildly from the crimson ocean.
The blood was even more vibrant and dazzling than before, and the intense, pungent smell of blood instantly filled the air, becoming increasingly irritating and nauseating.
As the blood energy surged, the sea of blood boiled, with waves of blood rising one after another, each higher than the last.
A terrifying pressure, carrying the majesty of countless divine beasts, slowly emerged from the depths of that blood-red ocean.
This oppressive aura contained the majestic power of the Kunpeng soaring through the heavens, the greed and ferocity of the Taotie devouring endlessly, and the mystery and majesty of the Zhulong controlling day and night. All these auras intertwined and surged toward Qin Luo and his companions.
Upon feeling this oppressive force, Qin Luo's pupils constricted sharply. Just as he was about to mobilize his spiritual power to resist, the Primordial Chaos energy within his body surged forth on its own.
Instantly, a layer of white light enveloped him, carrying wisps of the Primordial Ancestral Dragon's aura, successfully resisting the impact of that terrifying pressure.
In contrast, Nuantang and Yue Lishan were not so lucky. The imposing pressure of countless divine beasts pressed down on them without any hindrance.
This caused Nuantang's face to turn deathly pale, and her spiritual energy surged wildly within her body, as if it were out of control.
"ah......"
As the oppressive force struck, Nuantang let out a painful groan, her frail body swaying precariously under its weight.
Fine cracks began to appear on her skin, and bright red blood seeped from them, looking particularly shocking against her pale skin.
Meanwhile, Yue Lishan was in a similarly critical situation. She desperately tried to mobilize her spiritual energy to resist the pressure, but her spiritual energy was like a drop in the ocean in the face of this pressure, and was instantly crushed to dust.
With a "poof," Yue Lishan coughed up blood and was pressed to the ground by the oppressive force. She struggled to get up, but found that her body was as if it were being crushed by a boulder weighing millions of pounds. She could only let her body be crushed and broken by the pressure. The excruciating pain almost made her faint.
All of this happened in the blink of an eye. Qin Luo reacted quickly and waved his hand, causing the Primordial Chaos Qi within his body to rapidly extend outward.
The white halo surrounding him expanded rapidly, enveloping Nuantang and Yue Lishan as well.
The moment they were enveloped by the Primordial Breath, Nuantang and Yue Lishan felt the mountain-like pressure on their bodies suddenly lighten.
The previously chaotic spiritual energy stabilized, and some color returned to Nuantang's pale face. She raised her head, her eyes filled with the relief of surviving a disaster. She wanted to say something, but was too weak to utter a sound.
Yue Lishan was also pulled back from the brink of death. She lay on the ground, panting heavily. Although her wounds were still painful, at least they were no longer getting worse.
Looking at the two women he had protected, Qin Luo secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
But before he could catch his breath, Qin Luo saw that the blood energy that had been floating on the lake seemed to sense something and surged towards him all at once.
In an instant, the surrounding sea of blood churned wildly, and countless streams of blood energy converged into thick pillars of blood that roared toward him.
Upon seeing this, Qin Luo's pupils contracted sharply, his heart tightened, and he instinctively tried to mobilize his spiritual energy to resist. But just as he made a move, the urging voices of the Primordial Ancestral Dragon, the Chaos Primordial Phoenix, and the Origin Primordial Qilin suddenly resounded in his Qi Sea.
The three voices intertwined, creating a chaotic noise that left Qin Luo's head spinning.
Listening to the chaotic noise, Qin Luo's forehead broke out in a fine sweat, and his eyes were full of hesitation.
He couldn't help but swallow hard, inwardly groaning. If things went wrong, he feared he might really be doomed.
Looking up, the bloody aura was already close at hand, and the terrifying sense of oppression made it hard for him to breathe.
Looking at Nuantang and Yue Lishan, whom he was protecting behind him, although they were temporarily out of danger, they were still extremely weak, and it was obviously unrealistic to rely on the two of them.
With a thought, Qin Luo steeled his resolve. He knew that at this moment, besides trusting the three "fools" within him, he seemed to have no other means of resistance.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Luo gritted his teeth, suppressed the unease in his heart, and opened his Qi Sea.
The moment the Qi Sea opened, the blood energy seemed to find an outlet, rushing wildly into Qin Luo's Qi Sea.
Qin Luo tensed up, waiting for the expected excruciating pain of being crushed by the terrifying pressure to strike.
However, one second, two seconds... that crushing sensation did not occur; apart from the surging roar of blood energy, all around was quiet.
At this moment, Qin Luo slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a strange scene in his dantian.
At the point where Qi Hai (CV6) connects with blood Qi, three distinct streams of Qi are converging and colliding.
The most powerful was the primordial aura that emitted a soft white mist.
On either side of the Primordial Breath, a faint black gas-like mass echoed, each roll accompanied by a slight fluctuation in space, as if it were nurturing endless possibilities.
The other gas emitted countless colors, but in the center of those countless colors, there was a shimmering, ethereal, transparent point of light.
These three air currents intertwine and counterbalance each other, jointly plundering the incoming blood and energy.
While Qin Luoqing was still alive, little did he know that his dantian was already in complete chaos.
As countless streams of blood energy surged in, the Primordial Ancestral Dragon swung its thick tail violently, creating a wave of energy that churned the incoming blood energy into chaos. Then, it opened its blood-red maw and let out a deafening dragon roar, directly sweeping a large amount of blood energy toward itself.
The moment these vital energies came into contact with it, they were quickly devoured, refined, and integrated into its body, making its body even stronger, and each dragon scale shimmered with an even more dazzling glassy luster.
And the white mist in the center of the Qi Sea expanded once more as the blood Qi was refined...
