Chapter 61 Hanging by a Thread

For a moment, intense killing intent erupted from the young girl, her cold, cruel eyes looking up at the dark figure, filled with raging fury!

The sudden killing intent made Yun Molinglong and Qiao Qianshan instinctively retreat, looking at the girl beside them, who seemed like a god of slaughter, with astonishment…

This was entirely different from the Jin Bao'er they knew before, like a devil crawling out of hell, mad and brutal.

The Soul Burying Elder also couldn't help but freeze for a moment, then let out another piercing, disdainful laugh.

"Heh heh heh, little girl wants to kill this seat? With you?"

As soon as the words fell, the girl, her eyes filled with killing intent, instantly soared into the sky. She extended her right arm, and her palm suddenly emitted a dazzling silver light…

In an instant, a majestic long sword, entirely silver and adorned with coiling black dragons, appeared before their eyes, as lifelike as a true dragon possessing it! A wisp of dragon's breath, mixed with the aura of a half-grade immortal artifact, instantly permeated the air, carrying an unstoppable momentum…

Although the mid-stage Golden Core facing the early-stage Soul Transformation had almost zero chance of winning, she had an immortal artifact in hand and numerous spiritual pills… How would she know she couldn't win without trying? Fierce fighting spirit burned in her chest, settling both new and old scores!

"This… this aura is… an immortal artifact?"

Even the Great Elder, who had seen much, was somewhat bewildered by this aura, his eyes dazed and his lips trembling uncontrollably.

However, at this moment, everyone was looking up in stunned silence, and no one responded to him.

"An immortal artifact? Your luck as a little brat is truly extraordinary, to even obtain such a treasure! Since that is the case, this seat will not be polite and will take it!"

As the shocked and greedy tone subsided, the dark figure rapidly charged towards Jin Bao'er, carrying the full pressure of the Soul Transformation stage with menacing force…

The two powerful forces collided head-on, the spiritual energy range rapidly expanding. With a "boom," the earth instantly shook, the air became extremely thin, and the temperature plummeted. In the blink of an eye, the entire world was like a blizzard!

Even the black barrier created by the Soul Burying Elder couldn't help but tremble… Meanwhile, those below were unable to spare any hands to help, only able to desperately resist the siege of the black skulls.

After more than ten minutes of engagement, a figure descended from the sky, the result being evident…

"Bang!"

Her body crashed heavily onto the ground. Jin Bao'er almost fainted, the severe tearing pain in her internal organs jolting her awake. Her brows were tightly furrowed, her face frighteningly pale, and a mouthful of blood spurted out. She could barely move! Her magical robes were already ruined! She was in a state of utter disarray!

This battle had nearly cost her half her life!

She lay on the ground, desperately trying to stand up, but was utterly helpless. Her spiritual energy was almost depleted, and her physical strength had reached its limit…

Thinking this, she still smiled… a smile of unrestrained arrogance on her lips, her eyes fixed on the figure slowly descending from mid-air!

The Soul Burying Elder on the other side was not faring any better. A hint of horror and ugliness could be seen in his pale pupils, and the black mist surrounding him was gradually diminishing, almost revealing his true form…

A black robe almost covered his entire body. His hunched figure appeared very small. As his body landed, he stumbled backward repeatedly, almost falling! His right hand was numb from the shock, and black blood was faintly seeping from his left sleeve…

Perhaps without the support of those powers, the black barrier instantly shattered, and the warmth of the sunlight poured down!

Jin Bao'er quickly swallowed a pill and looked up, her face filled with the satisfaction of revenge! Because she had cut off the enemy's left hand! At this moment, her smile was tragically beautiful!

"Haha… old bastard! Guess if you can still leave here alive today!"

Her tone was full of threats and arrogance. As the pill took effect, she slowly stood up, a smile on her lips, her gaze cold and unrestrained.

There were cultivators of the Soul Transformation stage present, but none were confident they could defeat so many skeleton soldiers, let alone the Soul Burying Elder…

However! This young girl, only at the mid-stage Golden Core, had managed it!!

Everyone's faces were filled with shock! The Great Elder was also completely stunned. If it were him, he probably couldn't have achieved this level even at the cost of his life!

The Soul Burying Elder was dumbfounded! A wave of fear surged within him… He hadn't expected this little girl's body to be so resilient, to remain conscious after taking a direct hit from him. On the contrary, his left hand was directly severed, his aura uncontrollably leaking out. He feared that after being besieged by everyone, he would truly lose his life here!

However, the more this was the case, the more his killing intent surged! How could there be such a monstrous woman in the cultivation world? If she weren't killed today, there would surely be endless trouble in the future!

Thinking this, his pale pupils glanced at the cultivators who were gradually controlling the many skeleton soldiers, among whom were no shortage of Soul Transformation stage experts… His expression grew increasingly grim, though no one saw it!

"Hmph! Little girl, indeed a pure elemental spiritual root! Your strength is quite good. Let that Lan Ying Tian live a few more days!"

Although his tone was still calm, the fear and hesitation within it were unmistakable…

The next moment, the ice-sealed and scattered skeleton soldiers instantly turned into black mist and pursued, quickly disappearing into the sky…

Jin Bao'er stood in place, her body unmoving, her eyes slightly narrowed as if wary of something. However, only she knew how strained she was at this moment; her severe injuries left her unable to move at all!

Seeing all the black mist disappear, everyone instantly breathed a sigh of relief, the joy of surviving a disaster filling their hearts. The Great Elder looked at Lan Yingqing with a complex expression, never expecting that the Young Palace Master would have such a monstrous junior sister, whose future was limitless! The Old Palace Master would probably be at peace now.

Everything seemed to have returned to peace. Yun Molinglong was completely captivated by Jin Bao'er's performance in this battle! The admiration and excitement on her face were evident, and she ran over directly.

"Ahhh! Jin Bao'er! You're so awesome!"

Qiao Qianshan's eyes were also complex. Just not long ago, when they sparred, Jin Bao'er had almost lost to him. And in just a few hours, the other party had already surpassed him steadily.

He dared to say! Even if he and Chi Hu went all out now, they couldn't defeat this person.

Seeing Yun Molinglong rushing towards her, Jin Bao'er finally relaxed slightly. It wasn't in vain for her to have threatened just now, it was truly laughable! If that Soul Burying Elder had observed a moment longer, he would have probably discovered her abnormality! Thinking this, a faint smile touched her lips…

"Puff!"

Entering her vision were Yun Molinglong's eyes turning from joy to horror, the panicked movements of everyone, and Lan Yingqing's extremely anxious demeanor.

The intense pain in her chest made her vision go black. As she weakly lowered her gaze, the bone piercing her chest came into view. Blood stained her light blue magical robe, becoming the last thing she saw before losing consciousness.
