Chapter 362: Chapter 275: Exterminating the Bai Gu Crone! Lu Xuan Targeted by the Holy Mother!
Wherever the countless lotus phantoms passed, the void trembled, the air dispersed, and even the power of heaven and earth was stirred into chaos by this force.
The area around Lu Xuan was instantly submerged by the lotus phantoms, and the surrounding space seemed to be torn apart, emitting cracking sounds.
This terrifying pressure seemed to be unbearable even for the invisible void.
The destructive force even affected the land a thousand meters below.
The ground cracked, the mountains crumbled, and countless plants were reduced to dust under this pressure.
"Hmph, Bai Gu, let’s go quickly!"
Bai Shen snorted coldly, his eyes devoid of any pride and instead showing a hint of caution.
He immediately turned his head towards Bai Gu, his voice very urgent, "This place is not suitable to stay for long, let’s leave here first!"
Bai Gu gazed coldly at the area covered by the lotus phantoms, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a satisfied smile.
She confidently said, "With the power of the two of us, plus the power of heaven and earth from the two lunar-grade sacrificial artifacts.
"No matter how capable that kid Lu Xuan is, he’s got it coming."
However, Bai Shen next to her did not share Bai Gu’s sentiment; he just wanted to leave this cursed place.
"Bai Gu, stop talking nonsense!" Bai Shen’s tone gradually turned cold, a trace of impatience flashing in his eyes.
No sooner had he finished speaking than a terrifying aura erupted from Bai Shen, clearly indicating his intent to leave.
Then Bai Shen moved, turning into a black shadow, rushing into the distance.
Seeing this, Bai Gu quickly put away the Bone-Eating Rod in her hand, although she hated Lu Xuan to the core and wished to dismember him.
But driven by reason, she still chose the most prudent course of action—to retreat first.
Because, that terrifying woman of the Profound Bird Guard was still in the distance, who knows when she would arrive.
Bai Gu took one last look at the area submerged by the lotus, snorted coldly.
Then she followed Bai Gu’s footsteps, quickly flying away into the distance!
However, Bai Shen and Bai Gu hadn’t flown far when the sky above suddenly changed colors, and strange phenomena occurred!
In an instant, a purple vortex blocking out the sun appeared out of nowhere above their heads, whirling violently.
Within the purple vortex, it was dark and deep, as if leading to an endless unknown realm, or perhaps connecting to another completely different world.
The bottomless purple vortex continuously exuded a chilling power, spewing terrifying auras above the sky!
In a trance, a looming celestial shadow drifted in the depths of the purple vortex, looming, its true form unclear.
But that towering shadow emitted a mystifying aura that was both shocking and terrifying.
Like an ancient deity transcending heaven and earth, towering and boundless, high above.
With an ultimate indifference, devoid of any human emotion, it overlooked Bai Gu and Bai Shen below.
Just with a mere glance from it, they felt as if an invisible, towering mountain was crashing upon them.
An utterly irresistible, indescribable oppressive force emerged from deep within their souls.
This unspeakable feeling almost crushed Bai Gu and Bai Shen’s Divine Mansion Divine Thought completely.
"What!"
"What on earth is this...!"
Bai Gu and Bai Shen’s faces instantly turned deathly pale, devoid of any color.
They instinctively looked up at the terrifying purple vortex suspended in the sky, their hearts filled with endless fear.
However, at this very moment, their bodies seemed to be tightly bound by an invisible, yet unbreakable shackle.
Every inch of muscle, every bone was firmly locked in place, unable to move.
Even more terrifying was that this oppressive force originating from the depths of the heavens not only confined their bodies.
It also mercilessly seeped into their Divine Mansion, suppressing most of their Primordial Spirit power.
Bai Shen and Bai Gu could only barely maintain their bodies, standing arduously in the void.
Bai Gu’s face lacked any color and was almost translucent; her voice could no longer be restrained, trembling with fear and despair.
"This... what the hell is this thing?"
Bai Shen looked equally ashen, large beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, jaw locked tight, forcing out words through clenched teeth.
"Something’s wrong! This power... is too overwhelming, far beyond what we can contend with!"
However, no matter how they desperately struggled, trying to break free, it was all in vain.
At this moment, the celestial shadow within the purple vortex became more solid, more distinct.
It seemed as if it was about to break through the constraints of space and descend into this world.
Just at the moment when the towering shadow was about to fully solidify, its movements suddenly came to a halt.
As if blocked by some force, it remained unable to fully descend.
Bai Shen and Bai Gu witnessed the scene and a sliver of hope rose in their hearts.
But before they could even breathe a sigh of relief.
The blurred shadow suddenly lifted a hand and slammed it down towards their position!
"Boom——!"
The massive hand grew against the wind, instantly covering a radius of dozens of yards.
Within the palm of the hand flowed dazzling purple flames, carrying with them the extreme heat capable of incinerating everything.
As the purple flames danced, even the surrounding void was scorched to the point of distortion, making "sizzling" sounds.
"It’s that youngster’s fire!"
Upon seeing this terrifying purple flame, Bai Gu’s pupils shrank dramatically, exclaiming in disbelief.
She finally recognized the origin of the purple flames and understood the true identity of the blurred silhouette above.
"Lu Xuan!"
Bai Gu ground out the name through gritted teeth, her voice filled with shock and anger.
She never could have imagined that the youngster they regarded as their equal could display such terrifying means!
Bai Shen’s face also changed dramatically, incredulous.
"How is this possible!"
However, reality didn’t allow them much time to think.
The hand that covered the heavens was already pressing down, and the purple flames poured down like a celestial river, completely engulfing their figures.
"No——!"
In Bai Gu and Bai Shen’s desperate screams, the purple flames burst forth suddenly, devouring them both along with the little creatures around them.
Under this searing heat, everything was turned into dust.
Even the very air was incinerated, leaving behind only a charred void.
"Burst——!"
Amidst the boundless ocean of purple flames, a faint white light suddenly flashed.
The pure white light, though extremely weak, was unaffected by the purple flames, forcibly breaking through the sea of fire.
Soon after, the white light rapidly spread, attempting to carry Bai Shen and Bai Gu away in escape.
"Trying to run?"
An icy cold voice suddenly resounded.
Lu Xuan’s figure stepped out from the void, wielding the Ghost Flame Nether Saber, purple flames flickering in his eyes, exuding a might like a god of fire descending upon the world.
"Heaven-Burning Saber Skill!"
In the next moment, Lu Xuan let out a low shout, and the Ghost Flame Nether Saber in his hand slashed down violently.
Instantly, a nearly hundred-zhang long blade of purple flame soared across the sky, tearing through the thick clouds.
Wherever the purple flame blade passed, the void shook, and the vast heavens seemed about to be split by this single slash.
The purple flames burned fiercely, carrying destructive force, surging towards the white light.
Lu Xuan’s eyes flickered with purple fire as he coldly watched the depths of that white light.
Within it, he vaguely saw a flawless woman’s face flash momentarily in the weak white light.
That woman’s gaze was icy cold, as if she intended to remember Lu Xuan’s features deeply.
"Holy Mother!"
"No!"
"Save me!"
Suddenly!
The shrill scream of the elderly Bai Gu came from within the white light, filled with despair.
However, the speed of the white light suddenly accelerated, as if abandoning Bai Gu.
Or perhaps, it intended to use her physical body to resist Lu Xuan’s terrifying Heaven-Burning flames!
"Boom——!"
The blade of purple flames struck Bai Gu’s body with an earth-shattering roar.
Bai Gu’s screams were abruptly cut off, her body turned to ash in the purple flames, leaving not a trace behind.
Yet, at the last moment, the white light disappeared into the distance at a peculiar speed, leaving only two cold words echoing in the void.
"Lu Xuan!"
