After the dense Winged Fire Dragonflies flew out, they immediately covered more than ten Ancient Blood Corpses closest to Yang Che.
Following that, the grating, dense ‘rustling’ sound of gnawing and the ‘hissing’ sound of strange cutting were incessant.
The Spirit-Level Ancient Blood Corpse that had been hot on his heels, upon seeing the scene before its blood-red eyes, couldn’t help but reveal a look of confusion and surprise.
Seeing this, Yang Che felt a surge of secret delight in his heart.
He had thought that these Winged Fire Dragonflies would certainly be extraordinary, but he truly hadn’t expected this overwhelming swarm of flying insects to be so ‘terrifying’.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten Soldier-Level Ancient Blood Corpses were gnawed clean, not even leaving behind bone fragments.
Only a few General-Level Ancient Blood Corpses, their bodies tattered, barely resisted the Winged Fire Dragonflies’ frantic gnawing and cutting.
Yang Che also took the opportunity to stand before the Formation Restriction.
This Formation Restriction glowed with a strong bloody light, forming a blood-colored light curtain that even Divine Sense could not penetrate.
This Restriction seemed to have no effect on the Ancient Blood Corpse at all.
Yang Che personally saw Ancient Blood Corpses easily pass through the blood-colored light curtain and walk inside.
The Spirit-Level Ancient Blood Corpse’s eyes showed a thoughtful expression, and it hesitated whether to continue pursuing Yang Che.
As soon as Yang Che saw the Ancient Blood Corpse hesitate, he immediately controlled the Flying Fire Needles to attack wildly.
And he ordered all Winged Fire Dragonflies to besiege this Spirit-Level Ancient Blood Corpse.
This action indeed enraged the Spirit-Level Ancient Blood Corpse.
It roared and strode towards Yang Che, quickly arriving at the Formation Restriction.
Just then, a warm sensation suddenly rose from Yang Che’s nearly shattered body, making him feel incredibly comfortable and warm all over.
Immediately after, he lost control of his body.
Tianxie Ziyin finally possessed him again.
And she used some unknown method to temporarily boost Yang Che’s already severely injured body to an incredible level of strength.
The entire passage was instantly enveloped by an inexplicable icy aura.
All the Winged Fire Dragonflies were recalled into the Void Illusion Magic Stone Space.
‘Tianxie Ziyin’ reached to her waist and surprisingly took out the jet-black large scissor Magical Artifact belonging to Luo Jian of the Heavenly Ghost Sect.
Yang Che felt a sharp pain in his finger, and a drop of vital blood flew out, instantly merging into the scissors.
Then he only saw a blood-colored light flickering strangely a few times before his eyes, and then suddenly felt as if his body was being squeezed by something.
Upon regaining control of his body, Yang Che found that he had somehow already passed through the blood-colored light curtain Restriction and appeared on a desolate, spacious altar.
Yang Che quickly activated Dark Annihilation Sword Aura and Thundercloud Art on himself, setting up a double layer of protection.
Only then did he begin to carefully examine the altar.
This altar was extremely vast.
At its center was a huge blood pool, where many Ancient Blood Corpses were lying and frantically devouring the fresh blood in the pool.
Below the altar, on the spacious hall floor, lay hundreds of withered Cultivators in various outfits, scattered haphazardly.
These Cultivators, both male and female, some headless, some with large holes in their chests, some missing arms and legs.
Almost all of them looked as if their blood had been drained, and their deaths were extremely tragic.
Moreover, from their appearance, most of them seemed to be Cultivators of the Demonic Path.
“Zi Yin, it seems the fresh blood needed by the Ancient Blood Corpses in that underground cave has been provided by these Demonic Path Cultivators all along. But I wonder why these Ancient Blood Corpses killed them after coming out?”
Yang Che asked, puzzled.
“Before finding a master, the lower the Rank of an Ancient Blood Corpse, the more it only sees fresh blood and slaughter in its eyes. These Ancient Blood Corpses that came out early were clearly awakened without having consumed enough fresh blood. Therefore, when they see any living creature, they only want to kill it and absorb its blood.”
Tianxie Ziyin’s voice was still so cold, but as it entered Yang Che’s mind, it made him suddenly startled.
Because at this moment, Tianxie Ziyin’s voice sounded so weak.
“Zi Yin, are you alright?”
Yang Che asked with concern.
However, Tianxie Ziyin did not respond.
Yang Che glanced at the large number of Ancient Blood Corpses still lingering around, quickly stepped onto the Dunjxing Shuo, and prepared to seize the opportunity to leave the altar.
Seeing that Tianxie Ziyin did not respond, he naturally dared not rashly enter the Void Illusion Magic Stone Space at this time, so he could only enter purely with his Divine Sense.
After his Divine Sense entered, Yang Che was immediately startled.
And this surprise was no small matter.
His Divine Sense sensed that within the Void Illusion Magic Stone Space, at a certain spot on the endless red earth, a tall Ancient Blood Corpse, wearing a high-plumed black crown and strange glowing cloud boots, was suspended above the ground.
It was precisely the Spirit-Level Ancient Blood Corpse that had previously tried to kill him.
At this moment, this Ancient Blood Corpse was covered with countless Spirit Talismans.
Its face was ferocious, its eyes gleamed with a bloodthirsty red light, and it stared fixedly into the distance at Tianxie Ziyin, who was standing in front of the Purple King Pavilion’s courtyard gate.
The Ancient Blood Corpse twisted its tall body frantically, but whenever it tried to rush towards Tianxie Ziyin, the Spirit Talismans on its body would light up with a dazzling light.
Then, this Ancient Blood Corpse would emit a low, painful roar, unable to move forward an inch.
Tianxie Ziyin’s expression was serene, and her light purple long hair danced gently.
There was no emotion on her face.
Yang Che’s Divine Sense could clearly perceive that her body seemed even more ethereal than before.
At the same time, Yang Che also noticed that Tianxie Ziyin was holding several Jade Slips in her hand, seemingly engraving and recording something within them.
Just then, the great hall where the massive altar was located suddenly trembled violently.
Yang Che turned his head and saw that from the blood-colored Restriction on the altar, seven Spirit-Level Ancient Blood Corpses suddenly emerged.
And after these seven Spirit-Level Ancient Blood Corpses appeared on the altar, they immediately locked their crimson blood eyes onto Yang Che.
Yang Che only felt a chill down his spine, and his scalp felt like it was about to explode.
The Dunjxing Shuo rapidly rushed towards the depths of the great hall, trying to find a portal to leave this place.
However, the seven Ancient Blood Corpses were also incredibly fast; they simultaneously flew off the altar and swiftly pursued Yang Che.
Yang Che secretly prayed for an exit passage or portal to appear quickly.
However, he was soon disappointed, and his heart sank to his bones.
Behind him, seven Spirit-Level Ancient Blood Corpses, all with bloodthirsty eyes, rapidly approached.
Dealing with one was tough enough, let alone seven.
In desperation, Yang Che was about to hide in the Void Illusion Magic Stone.
At this moment, Tianxie Ziyin’s soft sigh suddenly came from his mind.
“Yang Che, you must not expose the Void Illusion Magic Stone.”
“Not to mention these are Spirit-Level Ancient Blood Corpses, each possessing strength comparable to a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator. Simply as the bizarre soul-linked creatures who are Disciples of the Ancient Corpse Sect, if you expose the Magic Stone, and they transmit the Magic Stone’s information to their master, you will never have peace.”
Tianxie Ziyin’s voice was unusually solemn, and at the same time, it was filled with a trace of helplessness and self-mockery that had never been present before.
“This time, since I actively brought you here and put you in danger, it is only right that I lead you out of danger.”
While Yang Che was surprised, he suddenly felt the familiar warm, incredibly comfortable sensation surge within his body again, followed by Tianxie Ziyin’s possession.
“Yang Che, after I take you away from this place, I will fall into a period of slumber. The things I have instructed you, and how to awaken me, are all engraved one by one in those few Jade Slips. I am truly tired…”
As Tianxie Ziyin’s faint voice faded, blinding light instantly flashed before Yang Che’s eyes.
Immediately after, his vision blurred, and his body felt a tearing sensation.
