Chapter 974 The Power of Chaos
The Saintess Fu Yu of Yao Chi Holy Land had a very grim expression on her face. As soon as she entered the first level, a disciple had actually died...
Thinking back to her master's warning before she left, she hadn't taken it to heart at the time, but now, in this situation, could it be...
On the other side, Luo Li frowned and looked around. "Apart from the soul-devouring miasma, there's nothing else around. Let's go inside and see if there's an entrance to the next floor."
Wen Xingyan and the others nodded at this and cautiously advanced deeper into the wasteland. The ground beneath their feet was sticky and damp, and every step felt like treading on rotting flesh, making an unpleasant gurgling sound.
Seeing this, the others looked at each other and walked inside.
Suddenly, Mu Wuzhi paused and whispered, "Something is coming."
Before he finished speaking, the ground began to shake violently.
The phosphorescent flames on the twelve totem poles suddenly surged, outlining a huge outline in the gray fog - it was a nine-headed phoenix that was three meters tall, with chains wrapped between its rotten wings, and smelly mucus dripping from the beak of each head.
"It's a defensive demon beast!" Jiuding Academy's chief disciple, Qianren, summoned his natal spirit sword and said, "Form a formation!"
The geniuses from various forces quickly dispersed, but their faces changed drastically the moment they activated their spiritual power.
Yunmiao Tiangong's Young Palace Master Yinfeng was filled with shock and anger: "My power has been suppressed by 30%!"
The eighteen eyes of the nine-headed phoenix locked onto the crowd simultaneously, and the central head suddenly let out a sharp scream like a baby crying.
As the sound waves passed, two disciples of the Shenlong clan who were unable to dodge exploded and died on the spot, and their flesh and blood splattered on Xie Shiyuan's skirt.
Xie Shiyuan's expression changed immediately, "Damn it!"
"Use the array talisman to trap him!" Luo Li threw out three thunder and fire array talismans. In the light of the explosion, she caught a glimpse of Shen Fuzhou standing there in a daze, and hurriedly pulled him to the side.
The phoenix's sharp claws scraped across her back, creating dazzling sparks on the rocks.
Luo Li was shocked and angry: "Are you crazy?!"
Shen Fuzhou looked bitter, "Luo Li, I feel like I'm being targeted. My reaction has become so slow..."
Luo Li gritted her teeth and took out a Great Lord Pill. "Take it first. If it doesn't work, hide aside quickly!"
Shen Fuzhou nodded hurriedly: “Okay!”
Wen Xingyan took the opportunity to jump onto the Phoenix's back and thrust his sword fiercely into the gap between its cervical vertebrae.
The beast roared in pain, and its eight remaining heads twisted around, spewing dark green poisonous flames at him.
"Be careful!" Luo Li's warning and an ice wall arrived at the same time.
Emperor Xuanming appeared at the edge of the battlefield at some point in time. His black cloak fluttered, and the extremely cold air froze the poisonous flames into ice crystals that fell to the ground.
The whole audience was in an uproar.
The pupils of the Holy Maiden Fu Yu suddenly shrank: "Why did the Lord of the Underworld..."
"Trial rules supplement," Di Xuanming's voice was as cold as ice. "A clearance token will randomly drop from the bodies of monsters on each floor."
He raised his hand, and a blood-red jade slip emerged from the heart of the phoenix. "For example, this one."
The nine-headed phoenix took the opportunity to attack, but its wings were pierced by bone spurs that suddenly emerged from the ground.
Luo Li breathed slightly and withdrew her hand from the seal, with the fluctuations of the law still lingering between her fingers.
Struggle flashed in Di Xuanming's eyes again. Why did he feel so unable to control his emotions every time he saw this person? Could it be that this girl had cast a curse on him the last time they met?
"Ali!" Mu Wuzhi's scream interrupted his thoughts.
The rightmost head of the nine-headed phoenix actually broke away from its body and flew towards it, with its fangs only an inch away from Luo Li's throat!
At the critical moment, the gray robe fluttered without wind.
Yan Ye's figure appeared out of thin air and he snapped his fingers nonchalantly.
The hideous head vaporized instantly, and the entire monster turned into a blood rain and scattered away.
"Well done," he wiped the blood off Luo Li's face lovingly, but his fingertips paused slightly when they touched her neck.
The temperature flowing through the girl's veins was clearly enough to burn the demon species.
It really is the power of chaos...
A murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Luo Li noticed it and said at the right time: "Thank you, Lord God, for saving me."
Behind him, Wen Xingyan also noticed that something was wrong with Yan Ye and immediately said, "Ali, are you okay?"
Yan Ye raised his eyebrows: "Are you Luo Li who never leaves the city?"
Luo Li suppressed her trembling and lowered her head in fear: "That's right."
Yan Ye's eyes flashed with understanding, "Are you the child who contracted the Phantom Spirit Pearl?"
Luo Li said with some distress: "That's right, but the power of the Phantom Spirit Pearl is too strong, I can't control it at all."
Yan Ye curled his lips, "Good boy,"
Luo Li immediately said, "The Phantom Spirit Pearl should naturally be handed over to the Divine Lord, but I am too weak to peel it off. Forcibly peeling it off will only destroy both of us."
"No rush," Yan Ye smiled meaningfully, his voice kind yet cruel. "I admire your awareness. Seeing that you have this intention, I can give you another six months. If you still can't peel off the Phantom Spirit Pearl after six months, then I will have to take it myself."
Luo Li lowered her eyes, "Yes, Lord Divine."
Yan Ye curled his lips in satisfaction, turned to Di Xuanming and said, "I am tired. You will preside over the next trial."
Amidst the swirling gray fog, his figure faded away like ink.
Murderous intent instantly surged in Luo Li's eyes. She had miscalculated. Yan Ye could actually feel the power of chaos.
Emperor Xuanming narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice, "The trial continues."
After saying this, he disappeared.
Luo Li and the others looked at each other and continued to walk inside.
Most teams also dispersed to look for Warcraft to obtain clearance tokens.
Luo Li and her group walked cautiously through the wasteland of the first level of the Netherworld Realm, surrounded by a suffocating sense of oppression.
Xie Shiyuan ignited a cluster of soul fire at his fingertips, illuminating the twisted dead tree in front of him. He whispered, "The attack of the nine-headed phoenix just now was very strange. It seemed to be specifically heading towards the direction where there were many people."
Wen Xingyan stroked the lingering blood on the hilt of the sword and suddenly pressed Luo Li's shoulder: "It smells of blood."
Before he could finish his words, a head suddenly rolled out of the mist ahead - it was the Jiuding Academy disciples who had just dispersed, their wide-open eyes filled with black mist.
Mu Wuzhi gasped: "Oh my god, what the hell is this!"
Luo Li gritted her teeth, "Retreat quickly!"
The ground suddenly cracked, and countless blood spiders broke out of the ground, and the spider silk they sprayed formed a huge web in the air.
Shen Fuzhou was unable to dodge, and the place on his arm that was touched by the spider silk immediately turned purple like corpse spots.
"Don't use spiritual power!" Luo Li ripped off half of his sleeve, "These blood demon spiders will absorb the soul power and feed it back to the Spider King!"
The screams of Long Qianjue from the Divine Dragon Clan came from not far away. The two disciples he brought with him were being wrapped into cocoons by spider silk.
The glass lamp shield of Yunmiao Palace made a crisp sound like porcelain breaking under the erosion of spider silk.
Yin Feng made a prompt decision and took out his spiritual weapon. A jade slip engraved with a star map exploded in the air, and the majestic power of the law temporarily forced back the spider swarm.
"Go east!" Luo Li's sword cut a bloody path, "There's an altar over there!"
As everyone was fighting and retreating, Luo Li suddenly discovered that Xie Shiyuan's skirt was entangled in spider silk.
