A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality: Immortal Realm
Chapter 762: Eternal DreamAll of a sudden, the infernal badge in Weeping Soul's hand exploded into two bursts of black qi, one of which transformed into an indistinct bug that instantly burrowed its way into her body, while the other transformed into a black dagger that shot forth toward Liu Qi's chest at an astonishing speed.
Liu Qi was bound to the cross, so he was unable to evade the dagger, and he could only raise his freed front paw to protect himself.
However, the dagger suddenly began to squirm like an agile spirit snake, slithering through a gap between Liu Qi's paws before instantly piercing into his chest.
His chest instantly exploded as blood splattered in all directions, and the dagger was able to pierce almost all the way through his body.
Liu Qi immediately threw up a large mouthful of blood that was interspersed with organ fragments, while the middle-aged man in the sky shuddered before becoming even more insubstantial in form.
All of this had taken place in the blink of an eye, and the gray light barrier encompassing Han Li and the others also dimmed significantly.
Liu Qi's tail unfurled from around Weeping Soul's body, and she tumbled to the ground, throwing her hands to her own head as she let loose a blood-curdling howl.
Black light was swirling around her body, and through the black light, one could see an indistinct bug projection in her abdomen, squirming incessantly as it rapidly devoured her energy.
Han Li and the others were stunned by this turn of events, but they immediately reacted and sprang into action, with Fox 3 flying over to Liu Qi's side, while Han Li hurriedly rushed over to Weeping Soul to support her.
He injected his spiritual sense into her body to inspect her internal condition, upon which his expression instantly darkened significantly.
"What do you think of my Immortal Devouring Dagger?" Yin Chengquan chuckled as he made a grabbing motion, and a giant gray palm projection appeared in front of him, then swooped down toward the middle-aged man.
The giant gray hand was giving off incredibly formidable soul power fluctuations, and even though Han Li and the others were currently situated in the gray light barrier, they were still instantly knocked unconscious.
The middle-aged man threw a punch in retaliation, releasing a pillar of white light to oppose the gray palm projection.
A resounding boom rang out as the two clashed, but the pillar of white light was clearly inferior in power and was instantly crushed upon contact.
The gray palm projection continued to swoop down, grasping onto the middle-aged man before crushing him with ease.
However, not only was Yin Chengquan not elated in the slightest to see this, his expression had completely darkened instead, and he let loose a low roar as he made a grabbing motion with both hands.
Four identical gray palm projections appeared around him in a flash, then swept through the air in all directions, and the surrounding space was instantly shattered, revealing the middle-aged man standing nearby in a completely unscathed condition, looking as if he were about to approach Yin Chengquan.
Within the gray light barrier down below, Liu Qi, Weeping Soul, and Han Li's group were also completely unharmed, and there was a ball of white light hovering in front of Liu Qi, releasing white halos in all directions.
A black dagger and a black bug projection were sealed inside the ball of light, unable to escape.
Yin Chengquan's expression instantly darkened even further upon seeing this.
"As expected of you to have to freed yourself from my Eternal Dream so quickly," Liu Qi chuckled with more than a hint of mockery in his voice, then opened his mouth to devour the ball of white light in front of him.
Yin Chengquan was furious to see this, and he immediately made a downward grabbing motion, upon which the four giant gray palm projections came swooping down while giving off tremendous soul power fluctuations.
Even before the four palm projections had fully descended, the gray light barrier was already trembling violently, looking as if it could shatter at any moment.
A serious look appeared no Liu Qi's face upon seeing this, and he raised his freed front paw, sending a flurry of incantation seals flying through the air, half of which surged into the gray light barrier to stabilize it, while the other half vanished into the body of the middle-aged man up above.
As a result, the middle-aged man instantly transformed into a white fox projection that was several hundred feet tall, and with a sweep of its nine tails, a wave of white light was released to clash against the four gray palm projections.
The wave of white light was instantly destroyed upon contact, while the giant fox projection was sent flying back before crashing heavily into the wall, but the four giant palm projections had also been repelled.
"He's going all out! I won't be able to last long at this rate, so you'll need to hurry up and cleanse your bodies of baleful qi, then help me sever the rest of these chains," Liu Qi said in an urgent voice.
Han Li, Shi Chuankong, and Fox 3 exchanged a glance upon hearing this, then flew toward the purple lightning pond together, while Weeping Soul remained still on the spot as she looked up at Yin Chengquan with a cold expression.
Meanwhile, the giant fox projection had already rebounded from the wall, and it didn't appear to have sustained any injuries as it pounced at Yin Chengquan.
"Let me help, Senior Liu Qi," Weeping Soul suddenly said.
"You're quite formidable for someone of your cultivation base, but you're still far from being able to play a part in a battle between Dao Ancestors," Liu Qi said as he took a glance at her.
"I'm naturally not delusional enough to think that, but just as you said earlier, I am indeed a Xing Beast, and I have a secret technique that can use my soul power to enhance the soul power of others. The secret technique is not as effective on those of higher cultivation bases than myself, but it should still work to some extent," Weeping Soul said.
A hint of surprise flashed through Liu Qi's eyes upon hearing this, and he nodded in response.
"Alright, but make sure you don't leave this light barrier. Otherwise, I won't be able to protect you."
Weeping Soul nodded in agreement, then began to chant an incantation, and four balls of black light flew out of the top of her head before descending around Liu Qi, then transformed into four instruments, namely a guqin, a waist drum, a jade flute, and a konghou.
Weeping Soul swept both hands through the air, and strands of translucent light shot out of her glabella, then fell upon the four musical instruments as incantation seals.
Music immediately began to play from the four instruments, and black ripples began to proliferate throughout the nearby space. Countless tiny runes were interspersed throughout the ripples, and they surged into Liu Qi's mind, causing his eyes to light a little.
High up in the sky, Yin Chengquan was unleashing a furious barrage of attacks, and the giant fox projection was quickly forced into a corner of the hall.
"Die!" Yin Chengquan roared as he swept both sleeves through the air, and a vast cloud of gray mist surged out of his body.
The gray mist was formed by countless spiritual sense threads, all of which fused into the four gray palm projections.
As a result, the palm projections swelled even further in size, and a series of profound patterns appeared upon them as they came crashing down with tremendous force while giving off fearsome spiritual sense fluctuations.
All of the space in their wake was filled with these formidable spiritual sense fluctuations, instantly eliminating all paths for evasion and retreat for the fox projection.
"That won't be enough to kill me!" the fox projection roared as the light emanating from its body lit brightened significantly, and it swept its nine tails through the air, releasing what seemed to be like a boundless barrage of waves of white light.
The four giant palm projections struck the waves of white light, only to be instantly devoured as if they had fallen into the sea.
A stunned look appeared on Yin Chengquan's face upon seeing this, following which he noticed what was happening inside the gray light barrier, and the astonishment in his eyes was instantly replaced with fury.
"You're a blind fool, Yin Chengquan! Let's settle our differences here once and for all!" the fox projection chortled as its nine tails abruptly straightened out, and every single strand of fur on those tails began to glow radiantly.
Immediately thereafter, countless strands of fox fur shot forth in unison like crossbow arrows before striking the four gray palm projections, instantly punching them full of tiny holes.
The four palm projections quickly exploded, following which the remaining strands of fox fur hurtled directly toward Yin Chengquan.
Yin Chengquan's expression changed slightly upon seeing this, and he immediately shot back in retreat, while the fox projection sprang forward in hot pursuit.
The battle continued, with neither side able to get the better of the other.
The two began moving faster and faster until they were nothing more than a pair of untraceable blurs, and resounding booms were ringing out incessantly as they clashed over and over again.
At the same time, Han Li's trio had descended beside the purple lightning pond.
Liu Qi had already significantly lessened the power of the purple lightning pond for them, but it was still apparent from the aura emanating from the pond that it was several times more formidable than the azure lightning.
Han Li flew into the purple lightning pond without any hesitation, and Shi Chuankong immediately followed suit as well.
However, Fox 3 decided not to enter the pond.
He was already at the High Zenith Stage, and at this point, most of the baleful qi in his body had already been eradicated by the azure lightning pond. Even though there was still some left, it was only a minuscule amount, and there was no need for him to take his chances in the purple lightning pond.
In contrast, it was a much better course of action for him to take a rest and prime himself into his best possible condition so that he could assist Han Li in severing the other lightning chains.
With that in mind, Fox 3 sat down with his legs crossed beside the lightning pond, then summoned a pair of Immortal Origin Stones to help himself replenish his immortal spiritual power.
