Chapter 403: Battle for the Map
"How dare you! You youngsters who are so bold, do you really think that I can't kill you!" A roar came from the Shura Bloodthirsty Picture, and two bloody figures shot out from the mist ball, which were the bloody skeleton and the woman in red.
The bloody skeleton opened its mouth and sprayed out eight round beads, which instantly floated in the air. The bloody light on the surface of the beads intertwined and flashed continuously, forming a series of arrays.
The phantom of a nine-bend blood river emerged, and the rotten and smelly bloody smell spread, making people sick, lingering in front of Dugu Feng, Lei Ming Patriarch, and Jin Xi Fairy.
The bloody phantoms of Dugu Feng, Lei Ming Patriarch, and Jin Xi Fairy emerged from the blood river, which was more realistic than before. The magic weapons of the three people were also transformed by the blood river, and they also showed blood red.
Dugu Feng's phantom made a gesture, and twenty-one blood-colored flying needles suddenly shot out, transforming into blood-colored needle shadows all over the sky, colliding with the oncoming black needles, and suddenly shooting out large and small light balls, and for a while they were in a stalemate.
A blood-colored lightning sword also met Dugu Feng's black sword, and it was difficult to tell which one was better under the roaring collision.
The situation was the same for Lei Ming Patriarch and Jin Xi Fairy. They were stopped by their own phantoms and stalemate, unable to move forward.
The three people were all awed. They had fought with the blood-colored skeleton many times before, but they had backhands. Now they went all out, but it was still a draw. This blood river phantom seemed to be stronger when it met a strong opponent, and it would never be broken.
"Hehe, this seat's blood river illusion formation was inherited from ancient times. No matter how powerful your cultivation is or how exquisite your magic weapon is, you can't think of breaking this formation." The blood-colored skeleton sneered.
The red-dressed woman on the other side also used the Blood Sea Divine Power, and slammed into the golden sword formation that Wanqi Hong had sacrificed from the inside, causing it to tremble wildly.
Wanqi Hong looked solemn, and his ten fingers flicked, and one after another of the magic formulas flew into the sword formation. Although the golden sword formation was temporarily stabilized, the sword energy that fell was much more scattered and was caught by the blood sea.
The Shura Blood Devouring Picture spirit was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief. The blood mist behind the blood picture surged and shrank inwards, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
The next moment, a series of raised black lines appeared in the center of the Blood Devouring Picture, like the meridians of a living thing, spreading rapidly and soon spreading to the entire picture.
Bang bang bang...
A strange shock force spread out, causing the nearby heaven and earth spiritual energy to boil, forming a huge spiritual energy vortex.
The Shura Blood Devouring Picture swelled a hundred times in the wind, and became extremely soft. The spiritual energy vortex rolled towards the nine flying swords in the center of the golden sword formation.
Wanqi Hong was shocked and hurriedly urged the sword formation to intercept. Countless golden sword qi shot down like a storm, and wisps of golden flames appeared on the sword qi, hitting the Shura Blood Devouring Picture.
However, all the sword qi immediately disappeared without a trace as soon as it touched the picture, without any effect.
The next moment, the spiritual energy vortex emitted an invisible suction force, which immediately wrapped up the nine flying swords in the sword formation.
However, at this moment, the void next to the picture fluctuated, and a black figure appeared out of thin air. It was the black-clothed monk from the Black Desert Alliance, who raised his hand.
A black key flew out of his hand and pierced into the center of the Shura Blood Devouring Picture with incomparable accuracy.
A scream suddenly came from the Shura Blood Devouring Picture, and the black lines disappeared completely, and the strange vibration force was also completely suppressed, and the spiritual energy vortex disappeared.
The picture shrank quickly, restored its previous appearance, and turned into a blood-colored screen again. The spiritual light on the surface dimmed a lot, and fell from the air.
The blood-colored skeleton and the red-clothed woman were shocked when they saw this. They didn't care about anything else and rushed to shoot at the Shura Blood-eating Picture.
However, the black-clothed monk shot backwards, and flew out of the golden sword formation in a few flashes. The black key also flew out of the blood-colored screen and fell into his hands.
All this happened in a flash, and even the four Yuanying period monks present were stunned.
Wanqi Hong glanced at the black-clothed monk in surprise. He didn't clear the way for this person just now, and this person easily left the golden sword formation!
However, the situation was urgent at the moment, and it was not the time to entangle the identity of the black-clothed monk.
Wanqi Hong was busy controlling the golden sword formation, and dense golden sword energy fell from the sky, hitting the phantoms of Dugu Feng, Lei Ming Patriarch, and Jin Xi Fairy condensed in the blood river formation.
The bloody skeleton was distracted, and the blood river formation did not conjure up Wanqi Hong's clone. Although the three blood shadows immediately took action to resist, it was indeed futile in the face of the sudden sword formation.
The three blood shadows were pierced by countless sword qi, and a large amount of blood light was scattered, and they could not move for a while.
Fairy Jin Xi was overjoyed to see this, and she pointed at the scroll magic weapon.
Three golden pages fell down, and each page was engraved with a complex talisman, which looked like a blooming golden lotus.
Level 4 talisman, Golden Lotus Sealing Spirit Talisman.
The three pages shone with golden light, turning into three golden talismans, which flashed and attached to the blood shadow.
A golden lotus appeared above the blood shadow's head, spinning and casting dense golden light threads from it, imprisoning the three blood shadows in place.
The bloody skeleton was distracted, shocked and regretful. Seeing that the woman in red had already protected the Shura Blood Devouring Diagram, he immediately turned over and flew back.
The three bloody shadows were transformed by most of the power of the Blood River Illusion Array, and they had to be saved.
"Your Excellency wants to change opponents before our battle is over?" Dugu Feng dodged in front of the bloody skeleton, and a black sword chopped down on his head with the force of a mountain.
The attacks of Lei Ming Patriarch and Jin Xi Fairy also fell, killing the bloody skeleton, intending to take the opportunity to defeat it in one fell swoop.
The blood-colored skeleton did not bother to rescue the three blood shadows, and activated the blood river formation. The nine-bend blood river rolled and swirled, protecting itself.
"Let's continue!" Wanqi Hong sneered and waved his sleeves.
The golden light on the surface of the nine flying swords was shining, and the whole sword formation was humming. Countless sword energy covered the Shura Blood Devouring Picture and the woman in red.
The Shura Blood Devouring Picture was severely damaged, and the breath of the blood-colored skeleton and the woman in red was weakened. The scope of the blood river formation and the blood-colored sea of fire was reduced a lot, and they could barely resist the attack of the four people.
"Senior Qiling, at this point, you should give up! This Shura Palace is no different from a prison for you. It is better to leave with the juniors. My Changchun Temple will definitely treat you with courtesy and provide you with all the resources you need for cultivation!" Wanqi Hong persuaded earnestly, but he did not hesitate at all.
The blood-colored sea of fire continued to shrink, and the sharp sword energy was approaching the Shura Blood Devouring Picture.
The woman in red tried her best to activate the blood sea, but it was still in vain.
In this woman's body, an invisible soul shadow stood in the void, it was Yuan Ming.
The location of the Shura Blood Devouring Diagram was beyond the sensing range of his spiritual consciousness. In order to explore the situation on the Shura Blood Devouring Diagram, he simply lit the black incense and possessed the woman in red.
"Wanqi Hong's strength is really strong. It seems that the Shura Blood Devouring Diagram cannot escape their control. What a pity." Yuan Ming said secretly.
"Senior Spirit, this won't work. We have been imprisoned in the Shura Palace for thousands of years. The blood source power in the blood map has long been exhausted. Although we have plundered the blood of two foreign monks before, it is not enough to use. What should we do next?" The woman in red communicated with the spirit anxiously.
Yuan Ming possessed this woman and could hear the two people's voice transmission.
The blood-colored skeleton was also very angry. It and the woman in red were both top-level blood corpses in the Shura Blood Devouring Diagram. Their combat power was closely related to the blood source power in the Shura Blood Devouring Diagram.
The Shura Blood Devouring Diagram is now an empty shell. They are like cultivators who have exhausted their mana and cannot exert their true strength. Otherwise, how could Wanqi Hong, Dugu Feng and other cultivators in the early and middle stages of the Nascent Soul be their opponents?
"How should I know! I originally hid a lot of blood source power in the Blood Devouring Diagram without telling the old thing of Master Shura, just to escape when the Shura Palace was opened. But you took advantage of my deep sleep to secretly absorb and practice, and used up all the blood source power. You still have the nerve to ask me!" The weapon spirit scolded the woman in red.
The woman in red knew that she was in the wrong and did not refute.
"And you, Blood Shadow, Master Shura sent you to Yindu City to take charge, how did you escape back so embarrassedly? You even lost a blood river bead, and you didn't bring back the Thousand Illusion Treasure Mirror, Blood Bone Mask and Thunder Hammer in Yindu City. You really have made no progress as you grow older. It's a pity that I chose to keep you two!" The weapon spirit changed the subject and began to criticize the bloody skull.
The bloody skeleton lowered his head in silence without saying a word.
The weapon spirit cursed for a while, venting a lot of resentment, and then stopped.
"Please forgive me, but you can't blame me. You have been sleeping all these years, and those blood corpses in the Jindan stage are stupid and ignorant. I don't even have anyone to talk to, so I have to spend my time practicing." The red-clothed woman smiled awkwardly and defended.
"Humph, you always have all kinds of excuses." The weapon spirit snorted.
"I didn't have time to ask before, how have you been doing these years, Xueying? Or you are comfortable, assigned by Master Shura to guard Yindu City, there are many monsters there, at least there are people to chat and relieve boredom. By the way, how is the blood willow in Yindu City? Could it have died in the hands of these outsiders? And who took away your blood river pearl, Xueying?" The red-clothed woman changed the subject and asked about the bloody skeleton's situation.
"Bullshit, Master Shura cut off half of my life connection with the Shura Blood Devouring Diagram! Not only has my strength not improved at all in the past thousand years, but I have to work hard to maintain the restrictions in Yindu City. What's so comfortable about that? Do you think everyone is as talkative as you!" The bloody skeleton snorted in dissatisfaction.
"We are all blood corpses in the Shura Blood Devouring Diagram. No matter how much we practice, we won't make much progress. Why are you sulking about this? If you ask me, the right thing to do is to find a way to leave this damn place as soon as possible." The woman in red didn't care about the crisis at the moment, and kept talking, as if she wanted to say all the words she had been holding back for thousands of years in one breath.
"Enough, shut up, I just woke up, if I'm not beaten to death by those people outside, I'll be annoyed to death by you!" The weapon spirit shouted angrily.
