Chapter 381: Chapter 164: The Daoist Venerable’s Personal Attendant! Ji Baixiu: No Lewdness Allowed! Ji Hongxiu: Increase the Intensity!_2
"Qingxuan..."
"I can’t let you steal the spotlight every time, can I? This humble Daoist also wants to play the hero." Ling Ningzhi’s lips curved up, smiling as she gazed at him.
Chen Mo was momentarily dazed.
At the brink of life and death, she could still laugh?
Looking at her full head of silver hair, Chen Mo felt a twinge of discomfort in his heart — what a heartless fool she was...
"I won’t bully you anymore." Chen Mo said softly.
"Hm? What did you say?" The environment was too noisy, Ling Ningzhi seemed not to have heard clearly.
"Ahem, nothing, I said you’re really hopelessly silly..."
"?"
Boom! Boom!
Two beams of light, one black and one white, surged forth, raising the Blood Net again.
Yu Hongyin and Qiao Tong spared no effort to mobilize Primordial Qi, helping Chen Mo shoulder the burden.
"Mr. Chen, continuing like this is just a temporary fix, useless in the long run. If we can’t reach the formation’s core, we are all doomed sooner or later!"
"We have to find a way out first to disrupt the Erosion Light Hourglass!"
Yu Hongyin’s face was pale, his tone urgent.
Chen Mo’s brow furrowed slightly; he naturally understood this rationale, but even if he forcibly broke through the Blood Net, how could he easily touch the Erosion Light Hourglass?
As soon as one touches that dark light, they will be completely trapped.
And without his support, the others wouldn’t last long...
"Leave it to me."
At this moment, a deep female voice sounded.
Ji Lianxing hovered in the air, speaking flatly: "You just need to tear a hole in this Blood Net, and I’ll take care of slaying the Blood Demon."
"You?"
At these words, Chen Mo felt a bit hesitant.
He already guessed this woman’s identity.
Being able to easily suppress Ling Ningzhi, forcing her to burn her Essence, clearly marked her as a Grandmaster Realm cultivator.
Not only could she emit green light from her forehead, but she was also so "interested" in him... besides Ji Lianxing, the Moon Brilliance Sect Master, he couldn’t think of anyone else it could be!
"I know you don’t trust me, but this is the only way."
Ji Lianxing raised an eyebrow, asking: "Do you want to gamble, or do you want to wait for death?"
Chen Mo knew she was right; currently, the only one who could contend with Fu Li was this demoness.
While it seemed a difficult choice, there was actually no choice at all.
He was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Then I’ll trust you this once, but I should warn you, I can only hold out for at most half a quarter of an hour. If you can’t kill him within that time, everyone will be refined by this formation."
"It won’t take that long." Ji Lianxing shook her head, stating: "Ten breaths will be enough."
"Alright."
Having made up his mind, Chen Mo no longer hesitated, igniting the remaining three acupoints!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Three muffled sounds came from within, the Qi Blood Power surged like a river through his meridians, his bent body slowly straightened.
The True Yuan boomed within the Three Gates, Dragon Devouring Star Power continuously infused into his arms, gripping the Blood Net and forcefully pulling it open to the sides.
"Open, for, me!"
Chen Mo’s temples throbbed, his blood-red eyes bursting with two lines of blood.
The magnified a hundredfold power and True Yuan exploded simultaneously, skin tearing open to reveal bloody flesh and tendons!
The Xuanxue Guiyuan Pearl frantically operated, drawing Qi Blood Power to replenish itself!
The power continued to rise!
Crack—
His arms, unable to bear the weight, crumbled inch by inch, stark white bone shards abruptly jutted out, and blood gushed like a spring!
Tearing sound——
Then, a light sound came.
From the dense mesh of the net, a red thread silently snapped.
Even with Chen Mo’s full effort, he only managed to tear a half-inch fissure in the Blood Net, which quickly mended itself!
"That’s enough."
Ji Lianxing stepped forward, her figure suddenly vanishing.
Though it was only half an inch, it broke the formation’s balance, the Five Elements’ aura rushed in, indicating that the Escape Technique could now be used!
"Huh?!"
Fu Li was stunned at the sight.
"How is this possible..."
Before he could come back to his senses, a pair of black-purple eyes suddenly appeared before him, and in their pupils seemed to burn ghostly flames!
"Ten."
Torrential green light surged out, engulfing Fu Li in an instant, turning him to dust in a moment!
On a bronze disk, the Gnomon Needle reversed by a quarter.
Blood light spread, the flesh recondensed.
"Nine."
Ji Lianxing’s gaze was indifferent.
Fu Li’s body had not yet fully formed when chains formed by cyan runes surged out of the void, binding him tightly, the black Li Fire surged, and the flesh turned to ashes once more!
His Divine Soul let out a piercing wail amidst the scorching flames!
"You damn woman, do you really think I’m made of clay?"
Accompanied by Fu Li’s angry roar, the blood moon in the sky rapidly approached, the red light surged, immobilizing Ji Lianxing in place!
"Hmph, as the Gnomon Needle shifts, blood marrow condenses into sand, once caught in the ’Taiyin Reverse Time Decision’, you’re as good as... huh?!"
"Eight."
A cold voice echoed in the sky.
In the next moment, the blood moon disintegrated like quicksand, and amidst the clouds of blood dust, Ji Lianxing emerged, her black robe fluttering in the wind.
"Impossible... where did this woman come from?!"
Fu Li’s scalp tingled.
"Seven."
In the middle of Ji Lianxing’s forehead, an ancient bronze scroll emerged, countless sigils pouring out, gathering into a giant hand the size of a mountain, slamming down toward Fu Li!
Fu Li’s pupils shrank to a point!
At this moment, he no longer cared to maintain the array, merging directly into the Erosion Light Hourglass.
The Gnomon Needle rotated clockwise, runes atop lit up one by one, a seven-colored beam of light shot out from the Gnomon Plate!
"Infinite Tribulation Light!"
Boom!
The bronze giant hand collided violently with the multicolored light beam!
Sparkling dust fell on trees and leaves, turning green leaves yellow instantly as if the flow of time was accelerated countless times!
The bronze giant hand flickered uncertainly, seemingly about to dissipate in the next second!
Ji Lianxing remained expressionless, her red lips moved slightly:
"Six."
The air suddenly froze.
Intricate ancient sigils subtly emerged on the giant hand, making it solid once again, pressing down with unstoppable force!
