Chapter 185: An Ling Mu Yuan's inner fire burned fiercely, like a fierce...
Mu Yuan's inner fire burned fiercely, like the scorching sun in the sky, driving away all the darkness and coldness around him.
The power of humanity contained in the flames seemed to be able to burn everything in the world, and even the space was slightly distorted by this heat.
When the demon saw this, a look of disbelief and horror flashed in his eyes.
This internal fire is so terrifying that if it is allowed to get close to you, the consequences will be unimaginable.
It hurriedly manipulated the formation, mobilizing the storm vortex to block it in front of itself.
However, Mu Yuan's inner fire can ignore everything and burn anything that comes close, especially the Yin energy.
Under this flame that was not scorching but had terrifying power, it quickly lost all its power, became thin and fragile, and was eventually completely wiped out.
Mu Yuan took this opportunity and rushed to the front of the demon in an instant as fast as lightning.
The demon was horrified upon seeing this, and immediately released all his might, pressing hard on Mu Yuan to prevent him from getting any closer.
At the same time, although Mu Yuan's inner fire was strong, it was also constantly consuming his vitality.
Under the scorching heat of the flames, his body gradually shriveled up, his skin clinging to his bones, like a piece of charcoal dried by a raging fire, extremely fragile.
The demon's pressure was like a mountain pressing down on Mu Yuan, making it almost impossible for him to breathe, let alone move forward.
He could clearly feel the bones and muscles crackling under the heavy pressure, as if they could break at any time.
This pain and suffering made Mu Yuan's face turn extremely pale, and blood even flowed from the corners of his mouth.
But he did not give up. He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, forced himself to support his body, and took another step forward.
Just with this one step, there was a crackling sound from the leg bones.
The devil looked at Mu Yuan like this, with a hint of pride and ridicule in his eyes. He still wanted to deal with him like this?
You're dreaming! He laughed arrogantly, "Nothing more than this. I thought you were so amazing."
Wan Moxiao was extremely anxious. If this continued, Mu Yuan would be unable to do anything except burn himself to death.
But unfortunately, she couldn't help him because she wanted to inject spiritual power into the treasure.
What should I do? What should I do?
She was anxiously thinking of a solution, feeling panic-stricken. She caught sight of Zhong Lingyue hiding in the distance out of the corner of her eye, and her eyes lit up. Thinking of Xu Hui's previous actions, she suddenly had an idea.
She sent a secret message to Zhong Lingyue, reminding her, "This is our only chance to eliminate the demon. He's using his soul and blood to control you. Don't you want to break free from his control and take revenge?"
She knew that the supporting actress Zhong Lingyue was vindictive and would not miss the opportunity to take revenge.
As expected, Zhong Lingyue was moved, but she didn't agree immediately. She just said, "You know I'm under control. If I even think of betraying him, he'll kill me!"
Wan Moxiao took out a transparent glass bead from the space, "This contains a spell from Young Master Wei. As long as you contract it, you can temporarily open up a different dimension and isolate yourself from the demon's control!"
Wei Mubai made preparations in advance just in case.
Zhong Lingyue's eyes flickered as she looked at the glass bead with a hesitant expression.
Wan Moxiao became anxious upon seeing this, and tried even harder to persuade him, "Do you know that to contract the Netherworld Frost Flame, someone needs to be sacrificed?"
"What do you mean?" Zhong Lingyue suddenly turned to look at her.
Wan Moxiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. "To contract the Netherworld Frost Flame, you need hundreds of spiritual roots. Otherwise, it won't be able to satisfy its appetite. After the contract is completed, it will turn against its master, burning them completely and becoming its own nourishment. After burning the master to death, the contract will backfire and it will fall into a short dormant period. Now is the best time to contract. Once successful, you can fully control the Netherworld Frost Flame without having to worry about backlash."
"We initially thought you were the one behind this. After all, the demon is a remnant soul and can't get close enough to form a contract with the Netherworld Frost Flame. So you needed to capture the cultivators outside the shop and gather their spiritual roots. I was the first unlucky one to be unlucky."
"However, you're only looking for materials to set up the formation, and have no intention of going out to capture anyone. Furthermore, the demon is actually planning to draw the soul power of the mythical beast Qilin to replenish his own broken soul. This way, he won't be afraid of the contracted Netherworld Frost Flame, and you are his chosen sacrifice!"
"After you sign the contract, he will be able to take advantage of the Netherworld Cold Flame's hibernation to complete the contract. After all, no matter how you calculate it, we don't have that many spiritual roots here to guarantee your safety, right?"
Zhong Lingyue was horrified. "Are you telling the truth?"
"No, no, no," she retorted harshly, "If the first contract was a sacrifice, then what are Xu Hui and Lotus Venerable doing there!"
She didn't believe it! Wan Moxiao must be lying to her!
Wan Moxiao smiled bitterly. He looked at Wei Mubai, whose soul was shattered, and Mu Yuan, who was burning himself to the point of being burned to ashes, and said sadly, "In the face of the calamity of world destruction, personal sacrifice is insignificant."
Zhong Lingyue's heart trembled. She understood what they were doing and knew that if she couldn't stop them, she would die!
Her eyes were dim. She had finally been reborn, and she didn't want to die, let alone die in such a miserable way.
"What do you want me to do?" Wan Moxiao was right. She also wanted the devil to die, and now was the best time!
Wan Moxiao was overjoyed when he heard this, and then said sternly, "Help Mu Yuan get closer to the demon!"
The inner fire can burn everything. Once the evil spirit of the residual soul touches it, it will be like a maggot on the heel, which can never be extinguished and can only be burned clean!
Zhong Lingyue's eyes flashed, "Okay, but I won't do it in vain!"
Wan Moxiao didn't hesitate and casually threw out a storage ring, which contained tens of thousands of high-grade spirit stones, several fourth-grade magic tools, and several third- and fourth-grade precious pills.
Zhong Lingyue examined it, her brows unable to conceal the joy between her eyebrows, but she still snorted coldly, "You are generous, but these are not enough to buy my life!"
Wan Moxiao's eyes were deep as he glanced at her calmly. "There is an exit from the Beiyang defensive formation. The path starts from the Central Palace, turns to the Kan Palace in the north, enters the Gan Palace in the northwest, returns to the Central Palace, then turns to the Gen Palace in the northeast, passes through the Zhen Palace in the east, and finally exits from the Li Palace in the south. The demon is the core of the formation. The moment it disappears, the formation will be temporarily ineffective, and you can take this opportunity to escape. In addition, as long as you bring Mu Yuan out, I will pay you double."
Zhong Lingyue's eyes suddenly lit up, "Are you serious?"
This is not a small amount of money, enough to make people excited.
Zhong Lingyue activated the glass beads, and her body seemed to be wrapped in a layer of crystal clear yet indestructible membrane, instantly isolating her from the outside world.
It seemed as if nothing could affect her, even the soul blood that made her feel threatened seemed to have no effect.
Zhong Lingyue was delighted, and her murderous intent towards the devil suddenly grew stronger.
If we don't kill him now, when will we?
There's no better opportunity than this!
She decisively went to the center of the storm. As she got closer, the power of the vortex became clearer and clearer. However, no matter how the violent energy that was enough to destroy any defense hit the diaphragm, the alien space did not move at all.
She actually managed to come to Mu Yuan smoothly. Not only that, she didn't feel any pressure from the devil at all. It was so terrifying.
Sensing her approach, the demon instantly became alert, feeling a strong sense of unease. He immediately said in a deep voice, "Lingyue, kill him, and those people outside won't be a concern. This will be a great opportunity for us to contract the Netherworld Frost Flame. After the contract, I will take you out of the secret realm."
What he said was nothing more than inducement and threat. The divine beast was about to awaken, and there was no way for anyone present to survive. Without him leading the way, Zhong Lingyue would have no way of escaping!
Zhong Lingyue smiled. To be honest, if it was before, she might have no choice but to follow the devil's arrangements.
But now, with the alternate dimension provided by Wei Mubai, it is not impossible for her to leave by herself. As long as she gets rid of the devil, she will have nothing to worry about!
She acted decisively and took out a dark bell with a strange shape and cracks on the surface.
With a slight wave of his hand, his palm was instantly cut, and blood dripped onto the dark bell like a fountain, and was greedily absorbed by it.
The dark bell, having absorbed the blood, seemed to be given life, emitting a strange red light. However, the blood did not seem to be enough to satisfy its needs. After flickering a few times, the red light began to weaken.
Zhong Lingyue gritted her teeth and resolutely tore open the wound, letting out more blood.
As if summoned by the smell of blood, An Ling instantly broke free from her control, pounced on the wound, and began to absorb it frantically.
But in a moment, Zhong Lingyue turned as pale as paper, her face was bloodless, and nearly half of the blood in her body was sucked away.
She was terrified and waved her arms repeatedly, trying to break free from An Ling's restraints. If he continued to suck her like this, would she still be alive?
In the previous life, it was known that Zhong Xinyue had obtained an extremely powerful treasure, but it cost a huge price to use it. Zhong Xinyue had countless treasures and did not need to use them at all.
The only time was when she and Mu Yuan encountered a fatal crisis in the Demon Realm and had to use it to save their lives. That time alone, they killed everyone in chaos and the Demon Realm was flooded with blood. Even the high-level demons who were three realms higher than her could not escape.
Such a powerful treasure was said to be so miraculous that Zhong Lingyue was naturally jealous. After her rebirth, she wanted to get it as soon as she had the chance.
After careful study, it was discovered that this dark bell was indeed extremely powerful. When the bell rang, it could disregard the difference in realm and confuse all living beings!
However, she never expected that activating the secret bell would be so dangerous, almost sucking all the blood out of her body!
Zhong Lingyue used all her strength, trying desperately to shake off An Ling, but An Ling was like a leech, clinging tightly to her wound and greedily devouring her blood.
Ding Ju——
When it was shaken, a strange and extremely eerie ringing sound suddenly rang out, as if containing the wails and resentments of thousands of wronged souls, penetrating everyone's eardrums and piercing deep into their hearts.
Everyone, including the demon, seemed to be seized by an invisible force, and their minds instantly became blurred and dazed.
Ding Jue——Ding Jue——
Zhong Lingyue swung the dark bell with all her might, and it finally flew out of her hand. It landed on the ground with a clatter, and then rolled forward again, making a crisp but heart-pounding sound.
An indescribable chill quickly spread, eroding everyone's thinking and perception.
My mind was in chaos, as if shrouded in thick fog, and my consciousness became blurred.
As the provider of blood, Zhong Lingyue's reaction was the mildest and she was the first to come back to her senses. She immediately used her spiritual power to push Mu Yuan onto the demon.
"Ah!" The pain of the remaining soul being burned and the crisis of being torn apart brought the demon back to his senses. He let out a deafening scream, struggled desperately, and tried every means to put out the flames.
However, the inner fire tempered everything, and he could not extinguish it no matter what he did. The fire burned more and more vigorously, like the fire of hell, surrounding the devil. Every inch of his skin and every wisp of his soul was tormented in the flames, until it finally turned into nothingness, leaving only ashes scattered by the wind.
Zhong Lingyue didn't care about these things. After seeing the benefits of this secret bell, which could even confuse the consciousness of a Mahayana cultivator, she immediately came up with a bold idea.
Why not snatch the Netherworld Cold Flame from Xu Hui and Lotus Venerable?
