Chapter 198 Black Snow

Inside the Yuanshen Sword Palace.

Black and red colors fought for control of the body's power.

"Huo Qingkong, don't forget what your master entrusted to you!! Don't let the evil thoughts in your heart devour you! You can do it!!"

The Demon Emperor could no longer bother with concealing anything. Knowing that Huo Qingkong was nearing a state of chaotic consciousness, he hurriedly reminded him.

"There is unknown evil approaching outside! If you are consumed by malice, the entire world will be destroyed!! Only you! Can save all of this!! Wake up quickly!!" The Demon Emperor roared, repeatedly using secret techniques to stimulate the memories in the black Yuanshen.

The Faceless Scholar was a destroyer, a resetter, without memories, but Huo Qingkong had them.

As long as he could maintain his memories, stabilizing his human form, he could weaken its overall strength, and everything wouldn't be too bad.

But if he lost his memories...

Fortunately, the black Yuanshen gradually began to exert its power, gaining the upper hand and suppressing the dark red.

The power of the two, even the slightest leakage, caused the surrounding Yuanshen Sword Palace to rumble.

The entire palace was crumbling, rubble falling, and cracks appearing on the walls.

But soon, Huo Qingkong suppressed the red malice.

'Fortunately, if he successfully controls himself, we might not have to take action. Perhaps we can completely stabilize the Faceless Scholar from now on, sealing him in Huo Qingkong's body!' The Demon Emperor had a glimmer of hope.

Following his message, the tense expression on the Saintly Spirit Taoist's face also gradually eased.

If it could really be like this, they wouldn't have to take action against Huo Qingkong.

Crack!!

Suddenly, a faint sound inexplicably entered the Demon Emperor's ears.

He stared at Huo Qingkong's natal Yuanshen, and suddenly froze.

'What sound?'

The Yuanshen were still fighting each other, no change.

But...

Crack.

The sound appeared again.

The Demon Emperor slightly raised his head, and this time he found the source.

It was above the Yuanshen Sword Palace!

Directly above!!

A huge crack was rapidly expanding. Outside the crack was a countless number of dark red, thick, viscous liquid.

The liquid was filled with the echoing sounds of countless pain, despair, and hatred.

'Die, die, die, die!!!'

'You killed my parents! Killed my entire family! I curse you!! I curse you to never be reincarnated!!'

'Everyone is dead! All dead! Hahahaha!!'

'One day... one day I will find you!! Torture you! Tear you apart!!!'

Countless hatred, countless noises poured in madly from outside the crack.

That belonged to the malice of the Faceless Scholar when he slaughtered and destroyed the world.

They had not disappeared, still缠绕around the Faceless One, but now they took advantage of the weakness, rushing into the gap in the Yuanshen Sword Palace.

'No!!' The Demon Emperor watched helplessly as Huo Qingkong, who had already gained the upper hand, was completely submerged by a large amount of dark red malice falling from the sky.

He was so close to success...

'Take action!!' Suddenly, the Demon Emperor roared through telepathy.

Boom!!!

The entire Yuanshen Sword Palace shattered. A dazzling, blinding cyan light from the outside poured down like a giant waterfall, crashing fiercely onto Huo Qingkong's location.

'Thousand-Faced Floating Sky Formation!! Activate!'

The Saintly Spirit Taoist's voice sounded like thunder, resounding loudly.

The huge waterfall-like cyan light, if looked at closely, could be seen to be not light, but countless cyan Wisdom Swords combined together, all launching the Instant Prison Sword move, flying towards Huo Qingkong.

At this time, outside.

Around the Faceless Sword Sect, three figures appeared out of thin air, forming a triangle.

They enveloped the entire Sword Sect's base.

The three exchanged glances after looking at the pure cyan light formation inside the base, which was resisting everything, and nodded slightly.

"We will help Saintly Spirit Taoist!"

The speaker was none other than the Qingmu Sword Sect Leader. He held a blue long sword, his eyes flashing with blue light.

On the other side was Qingyang Zhenren from the Years Gate.

The third was not the Jade Balance Sect Leader, but a tall woman wearing a golden mask and with black eagle wings on her back.

It was the Dark Fragrance Leader.

The three simultaneously stretched out their hands, pressing down their palms. Streams of boundless, invisible consciousness belonging to True Fire experts rained down above the base, merging into the formation to help it.

The Saintly Spirit Taoist looked up at the sky, his eyes without sorrow or joy, guiding the formation to absorb power, merging it into itself, and continuing to press down on Huo Qingkong.

But...

A huge tremor began to shake the entire base.

Half of the disciples who were still inside the sect were suddenly quietly drained of their consciousness, without even realizing it.

But the light of the formation, and the tremor at this time, caused the remaining hundred or so disciples to panic.

The disciples went to find the stewards to inquire about the situation, and the stewards sent people to the Faceless Great Hall, trying to ask the elders.

But all the elders were gone... This situation immediately made everyone even more panicked.

"Not good!!" As the tremor became more and more intense, the faces of the Saintly Spirit Taoist and the six elders became increasingly ugly.

"Sect Leader, what exactly are we suppressing? How can we not even be able to with so many people's power"

Elder Yunling couldn't help but ask.

"There is actually something in this world that even we can't suppress together?! This is simply"

Kuiling was also a little flustered. Yun Chen and Tie Zhou were still in the pavilion over there. If something happened, they wouldn't even be able to escape.

She stared intently at the Saintly Spirit Taoist, and found that although his face was shocked, he didn't show the slightest panic, as if he had already expected this to happen.

"Senior Brother! Please tell us the truth! What are you still hiding now?"

"It's too late..." The Saintly Spirit Taoist shook his head slightly, but looked at the fear and confusion in the eyes of the six at this time.

He was ultimately unable to bear it, and flicked his fingers slightly, sending out six streams of light that shot into the sword patterns on the foreheads of the six great elders.

A large amount of information poured into the minds of the six in a short time.

"How is that possible!!?"

"Such an absurd thing...!"

"Senior Brother, are you still trying to deceive us!?"

"Qingkong is actually the one who will destroy the world with calamity energy!? You must be joking!!?"

Kuiling took a deep breath, carefully sorted out all the details of the information, and then looked up, looking around. She sensed the aura of her good friend, Qingyang Zhenren. The two had exchanged positioning tokens earlier.

Qingyang Zhenren was also exerting force to help the formation suppress the tremor.

But...

At this moment, she understood that everything was true... Huo Qingkong... was actually the most dangerous and evil world-resetter.

"Why didn't you leave the Profound Sea of Wonders??" She looked sternly at her Sect Leader Senior Brother.

"Do you think we haven't tried?" The Saintly Spirit said softly.

"But"

Before Kuiling could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a thunderous roar.

Boom!!

The ground in the center of the entire Faceless Sword Sect exploded open, revealing a huge hole.

Dark red blood energy poured out of the hole, turning into a huge blood pillar tens of meters thick, crashing into the cyan light curtain of the Thousand-Faced Floating Sky Formation.

The light curtain only blocked it for a moment before being torn apart.

The blood light rushed into the clouds, connecting the sky and the earth, slowly rotating.

In the light pillar, a blood-colored figure slowly rose, flying out of the hole.

It was Huo Qingkong, who had just been suppressing the calamity energy.

At this time, he was completely different from before. His long hair was disheveled, and his face was covered with painful, twisted faces of little people. His original appearance had turned into a blur, completely unclear.

It was like looking through a frosted glass.

If it weren't for the clothes he was wearing and the sword-nurturing pouch he was carrying, indicating his true identity, perhaps few people would recognize him as Huo Qingkong.

"Teacher, why are you attacking me! Am I not your disciple!?"

He lowered his head and looked down at the Saintly Spirit Taoist who was sitting in a formation below.

His voice was like countless people layered on top of each other, speaking at the same time.

"It's Senior Brother... What's going on!?"

In the courtyard below.

Zhao Yuan looked up at the terrifying figure.

On this magical day, half of her consciousness was suddenly drawn away, the sky suddenly lit up with the light of a great formation, and the ground suddenly began to shake.

Everything came inexplicably.

And now, that suddenly emerging monster had a voice that was extremely similar to Senior Brother's!?

"What exactly is going on!?"

She looked at the others in fear and helplessness.

Figures rose into the air, looking up at Huo Qingkong in the sky.

Bai He was also there.

Qiu Chen was behind him, his face pale, holding his long sword, his body trembling slightly.

Yun Chen, Tie Zhou, and the family members of the other elders were all gathered together, supporting a small cyan light sword formation.

The crowd looked up at Huo Qingkong in panic. Most of them recognized his true identity from his voice.

Of course, no one would believe that the blood-red monster was Huo Qingkong, so their gazes all converged on the Saintly Spirit Taoist, hoping that he would give them an answer.

"You, of course, are my disciple, but you are also the source of all destruction!" The Saintly Spirit Taoist finally stood up at this time, his whole body suddenly lit up with silver firelight.

Countless tiny flames quickly ignited from all parts of his body, gathered, and then turned into a human-shaped torch, rising to more than ten meters in height.

Huo Qingkong's gaze swept towards the remaining six elders.

Their eyes were all filled with the same vigilance and shock, but there was no longer any of the recognition and trust they once had for him.

"It seems that the evil and ancient aura from the outside has contaminated and controlled your minds. Don't worry, Teacher, everyone, Elders. I will rescue you!"

Huo Qingkong opened his arms, and countless densely packed human arms suddenly stretched out from behind him. At least hundreds or thousands of arms were linked together, rapidly extending and condensing into a pair of huge, bizarre, pale wings.

At the same time, faceless heads also began to arch out and grow from Huo Qingkong's body. Like countless tumors, of different sizes.

The blood-red pillar of light became even more dazzling, as if it had completely dyed the entire base red.

"Kill!!"

In an instant, the Saintly Spirit Taoist and the three True Fire experts around him attacked at the same time.

The cyan light turned into a giant sword hundreds of meters long, floating in the air and slashing down from above.

The blue light sword blade divided into thousands, and then suddenly merged into one, condensing into a silver thread, slicing towards Huo Qingkong.

The other two attacked at the same time. The golden-masked person sprinkled a large amount of translucent liquid, covering Qingyang Zhenren of the Years Gate.

Qingyang leaped up, her body transforming into a silver-white fox. The eighty-one giant fox tails behind her turned into eighty-one sharp thorns in the air, slamming down on Huo Qingkong.

The four attacks were not fast, but they carried a sense of certainty.

"As expected... everyone has been controlled?"

Huo Qingkong slightly raised his hand, and a piece of blood light turned into a flying sword, instantly shattering the attacking fox tails.

Then he raised his hand and pointed.

The giant sword disintegrated on its own more than ten meters away from his fingertip.

Finally, his mind moved.

Countless densely packed dark red silk nets lit up in the surrounding air, submerging the silver thread.

The strength of the love silk net was actually pulled to such a high level by him! Even a True Fire expert's full-strength attack couldn't break it. It was simply terrifying!

This terrifying strength made everyone's hearts turn cold.

"Let me save you."

Huo Qingkong looked at his teacher, the Saintly Spirit Taoist, and the great formation of the six elders. It gave him a certain amount of pressure.

So.

"Instant Prison."

He raised his index finger and pointed at will.

Qingyang Zhenren in the air on the right wailed and returned to human form. A sword-shaped bloody wound inexplicably appeared on her shoulder.

If she hadn't dodged quickly, her entire head would have been completely blown apart just now.

Looking at the hideous and terrifying blood-colored monster, although it wasn't the first time she had seen it, when she actually faced it, her scalp still tingled, and her whole body felt a strong tremor.

"Stepping Void."

Before the sound fell, the golden-masked person screamed. Their waist was suddenly pointed at by Huo Qingkong, who appeared out of nowhere, and exploded in the air.

Huo Qingkong grabbed their flying upper body from afar. Before they could even hum, they turned into a cloud of blood and exploded.

Not only that, but on the other side, Qingmu Zhenren quickly retreated, fully unleashing his sword light.

A rainbow-like sword light rose as dazzlingly as the sun, but it dimmed halfway.

Huo Qingkong was floating beside Qingmu Zhenren at some unknown time, his hand touching the side of his temple.

"I..." Qingmu Zhenren sighed and wanted to speak.

But... Boom!!

His entire body exploded, turning into a cloud of blood, flying into Huo Qingkong's body along with the previous cloud of blood.

Two True Fire experts from the four sects... were just gone in the blink of an eye!?

Inside the base, the elders, and the hundred or so disciples and stewards, looked up at this terrifying scene.

Silence reigned for a time. Deep despair arose from everyone's hearts.

"How can we fight this!?" Elder Yunling looked at the sect leader with trembling lips, but found that the Saintly Spirit Taoist's face was calm, and his eyes were already filled with gray death.

He had already given up his life and was waiting for death.

She also looked at the others. The other elders were either despairing or angry. Some were pale and tried to condense some trump cards, and some closed their eyes and chanted some unknown scriptures.

Faced with an unprecedented, disaster-like enemy, everyone showed their truest side under unpreparedness.

Kuiling narrowed her beautiful eyes, not giving up hope even now. Her whole body was flashing with cyan light, and the sword pattern on her forehead was glowing, as if she was desperately trying to send a message out.

"Next, it's your turn." Huo Qingkong looked back at the six elders, especially at Kuiling.

Bai Lu was the source of all destruction, so...

"Die."

He raised his hand to point.

But suddenly, an extremely ancient, evil, and dream-like boundless aura gushed out rapidly from above.

Under the agitation of the aura, the red light from the finger he pointed out was hit by a black aura that appeared out of nowhere, and flew askew in other directions.

The red light exploded, destroying and collapsing a piece of building.

"Senior Brother, you are too evil"

A voice slowly came from above.

Huo Qingkong suddenly raised his head, and everyone also looked up at the same time.

Higher in the sky.

A tall figure wearing a Faceless Sword Sect Taoist robe was quietly floating motionless, looking down below.

He had deer antlers growing on his head, a burly figure, a flawless face, and eyes as dark and deep as an abyss.

It was Bai Lu, Li Cheng Yi!!

It was just that the temperament was slightly different from usual.

In surprise, Kuiling hurriedly wanted to send a message to tell him to run quickly, but was grabbed by the Saintly Spirit Taoist, who had reacted.

"Wait! Look carefully behind Bai Lu. Something's wrong!"

Hearing this, Kuiling immediately came back to her senses. She looked towards the sky again.

Only then did she realize in horror that Bai Lu's state was obviously not right.

His black hair had turned into scattered silver hair at some unknown time, flying in the wind behind him.

He was holding a slender golden blade in each hand, and the sword mark on his forehead had also turned pitch black.

Moreover, these were not the most important things. The key was...

"What is that!!?" Kuiling stared blankly at the huge, pitch-black crack behind Li Cheng Yi, stunned for a moment.

Before, the black clouds had blocked it, but now the clouds had dispersed and the black mist was scattered, just revealing the huge black crack behind Li Cheng Yi.

The edge of the giant crack, which was tens of thousands of meters long, had countless strange and ugly black giant monsters, stretching out their giant hands frantically trying to tear the crack even wider.

Everyone who had come back to their senses at this time suddenly realized that countless black snowflakes were flying out of the crack.

The snowflakes densely scattered on the ground, and each one could corrode small holes in the ground.

"I noticed that something was wrong with you a long time ago." Li Cheng Yi took a deep breath, his gaze fixed on Huo Qingkong.

"For the sake of stability of the entire world." Li Cheng Yi raised his hand and crossed the golden long swords in front of his chest in an "x" shape.

"I have no choice but to completely seal you here..."

Chī.

A huge circle of black clouds centered on Li Cheng Yi, suddenly spreading to the surroundings, crossing the base, crossing the earth, and flying towards the distant junction of heaven and earth.

Wherever the black air passed, all the plants withered, withered, and froze into ice sculptures.

The earth turned snow-white, with no life left.
