Chapter 20: The Great Prison Refines the Demon (Part 2)

  Only the most accomplished masters who have reached the pinnacle of cultivation and attained the state of "sitting in stillness" can condense and summon their Primordial Spirit. Even those who have broken through to the Great Vehicle and grasped a thread of heavenly insight dare not lightly employ the technique of releasing their Primordial Spirit.

  Doing so can instantly boost one's power to a terrifying level, enough to repel any enemy of the same boundary, and even successful precedents for cross-level challenges exist.

  However, once the yuan Shen is sacrificed, the loss of true yuan in the body will be abnormally astonishing. The flesh that loses the yuan Shen will become extremely fragile. If it is defeated by the opponent and loses its flesh, but cannot find a suitable fairy instrument to nourish the yuan Shen, then it can only forcibly seize the house, snatch the flesh of others, but the possibility of success is extremely low.

  The reason is simple: ordinary people's physical bodies can hardly withstand the huge impact of yuan Shen, and there is a risk of instantaneous explosion into powder; while the physical body of a high-ranking cultivator is strong, but his dao heart is also as firm as a rock. If someone actively throws himself into their arms, they can take advantage of the opportunity to refine and absorb the invading yuan Shen, and their cultivation will soar like a carp leaping over the dragon gate.

  However, the old demon Bān Liǎo has made up his mind to follow Ye Fǎ Shàn and Xīao Sì to the death. As for new grudges and old hatreds, they cannot be left unavenged. Moreover, even if he wanted to retreat, the other side would never agree!

  "Ahhh——" A large, colorful toad suddenly emerged, surrounded by a green, misty aura that floated and fluttered, blown by pungent gusts of wind like waves crashing and receding.

  He crouched above the mottled old demon's physical body, his throat making a strange and piercing sound, as he spewed out clusters of extremely pungent green toxic fog from his mouth. In an instant, it condensed into a mushroom cloud that surged towards Li Yuanba like a tsunami, which was precisely the "Devouring the Great Wilderness" he had refined from collecting ten thousand poisons.

  Li Yuanba's triangular eyes narrowed and he exclaimed, "This... this thing is... strange!" The twin hammers clashed with a deafening crash amidst the lightning-fast exchanges of a thousand times, as strands of electricity burst forth and expanded around him, weaving into a gigantic net of light that repelled the poisonous miasma.

  However, in the midst of the chaos, there was still a strange and eerie aura that could penetrate through Li Yuanba's "Thunder City" formed by the drumming of the golden hammer, silently entering his body, causing his spiritual platform to become dusty and his Dao heart to become tainted.

  Ye Fashan shouted "Wú Liàng Tiān Zūn" with a solemn expression, drew out the Wind and Dust Immortal Sword, transformed into pure yang energy, and struck directly at the demonic old man's primordial spirit brow.

  After he self-cultivated to the realm of Jinsheng Zhaoshang, he abandoned all kinds of magical artifacts and only brought a sword and a dust brush. At most, he added a few bottles of elixir and a few talismans to travel through the four seas and enter the world to cultivate, seeking opportunities to break through the forgotten emotional realm and the aura operation.

  Today, I suddenly encountered a powerful enemy. Although my cultivation has surpassed that of the old multicolored demon by a notch, as soon as his primordial spirit emerged, the situation took a drastic turn for the worse. If I couldn't withstand this old devil, a catastrophic massacre loomed imminent.

  The mottled old demon Ling Kong grabbed the Feng Yang Demon Knife, holding it in his palm as the true yuan flowed and turned. The knife suddenly burst forth with a brilliant green light, and one by one, the pale blue light balls fell like the setting sun, crashing down on Ye Fashan.

  "Boom, boom, boom..." Hundreds of "Bì Yīn Guāng Yáng" rained down on the Wind Dust Immortal Sword like a storm, striking it relentlessly. The immortal sword hummed and trembled, bearing an unimaginable pressure, as a layer of gray-green light gradually emerged on its blade, invaded by the aura of Bì Yīn Guāng Yáng.

  Ye Fashan's body swayed more and more violently, with a faint green aura rising from his head, step by step approaching the spotted old demon.

  Both sides have ridden the tiger and can't get off, they can only see red with their bayonets and fight to the death.

  Xiao Si secretly pulled out a "Ten Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart Talisman" from his waistband. This talisman was only of the fourth rank, and normally using it against the spotted old demon would be like an ant trying to shake a tree. But now that he, Ye Fashan, and Li Yuanba were evenly matched in their fierce battle, all they needed was one final straw to crush the camel.

  "Hsss——" The Dao symbol rose, and instantly, a vast number of golden arrowheads burst forth, pouring down on the spotted old demon's body like a waterfall.

  The spotted old demon suddenly became furious and shouted: "You little dog, you dare to be naughty!" With a slap of his left palm, the Seven Killings Handprint was instantly printed, and the arrows turned into ashes. The momentum of the handprint grew stronger and stronger, directly crushing Xiao Si.

  Xiao Si hastily opened the umbrella that could not withstand the wind, shielding Wan'er in front of him. With a loud "thud", the umbrella suddenly sprang open like a kite breaking free from its string and flew out of his hands. Xiao Si hugged Wan'er tightly, using his body to protect her as he desperately conjured up an "Exorcism Jade Armor Talisman" that transformed into a cyan-colored armor garment enveloping their entire bodies.

  Alas, this still doesn't work. The Seven Killings Seal's power is like a hot knife through butter, turning Qing Jia into nothingness and striking directly at Xiao Si's back.

  Although Xīao Sì's body still had the remnants of the Hundred Wars Frost Cloak and the Sixty-four River Luo Star Array protecting him, he was unable to withstand the ferocious and unparalleled magical imprint impact. He was sent flying seven or eight zhang away, his entire body radiating a brilliant starlight as he vomited large mouthfuls of congealed blood, his internal organs churning in turmoil.

  Wan'er, under Xiao Si's protection, was only slightly injured. Her pretty face had lost its color and her eyes were brimming with tears as she scolded: "You idiot, why didn't you dodge?" She didn't even care about her own weak strength, and pressed her hand on his back, generously pouring true energy into Xiao Si's body.

  Xiao Si fell into Wan'er's arms, his hands trembling as he took out a dan pill from the waistband of his pants and swallowed it, but he felt the girl's ** violently rising and falling on his face, lightly rubbing against him, his body inside and out seeming like two extremes of ice and fire.

  He retorted bluntly: "You're the idiot! If I could hide, I'd have run far away long ago!"

  Wan Er's eyes turned even redder, she knew that Xiao Si's movement skills were far beyond her own, if he had wanted to escape, he would have had a great opportunity to avoid the direct attack of Qi Sha Yin. The reason why she insisted on taking it head-on was because she was standing right behind him.

  "Towards..." She said softly: "It's me being too stupid, always dragging you down."

  Xiao Si was stunned, staring at Wan'er's delicate face and gentle eyes, a sly smile slowly spreading across his lips as he said: "I'm not afraid of being implicated with you, as long as you call me 'husband'!"

  One side is enjoying peaceful and serene life, while on the other side, the battle situation has changed again.

  As expected, that Wan Jian Xin Yin (Ten Thousand Arrows Piercing the Heart) symbol was a game-changer, shattering the delicate balance between the two sides.

  Ye Fashan took advantage of the momentum, pinched the sword with his left hand, and his whole body was filled with pure yang green light. The energy of Sanqing surged, and he merged with the sword to launch the Zhongnan Sword Sect's "Wangugang Qingjian Jue" technique.

  "Hum——" The wind and dust fairy sword's light burst forth, swallowing the sky and devouring the earth. It transformed into a towering ancient tree that defied snow and welcomed frost. Layer upon layer of illusory shadows swirled around it, with wave after wave of brilliant light surging like a tide. Countless sturdy branches emerged from the depths of the void, as if a heavenly net had trapped the mottled old demon.

  In the space between heaven and earth, only that one green pine was seen to stretch across the sky, growing rapidly with a force like lightning, pressing straight down on the multicolored old monster!

  At the same time, Li Yuanba was also unwilling to be outdone, and with a flick of his wrist, he threw out the golden drum and shouted: "Lei Shen Hong, Hong Ding!"

  The old demon's emotions knew no bounds at the critical moment of life and death, and he could no longer tolerate even a hint of concealment. With a loud roar, his primordial spirit suddenly expanded tenfold, like a small mountain suspended in mid-air. The Yang Demon Knife in his hand was as slender as an embroidery needle.

  "Hahaha——" His back suddenly burst open with a series of light holes, from which shot out incredibly powerful and majestic green light swords, all of which were transformed from over a hundred years of true yuan into "Yin Yun Yuan Mang".

  It's better not to say that this time the effort is less, and it's necessary to retreat for thirty years, but as long as we can keep our lives and kill our enemies, there will be plenty of opportunities to make up for it in the future.

  Xiao Si tightly grasped Wan Er's hand, his palms were full of cold sweat. He held his breath and watched the duel in mid-air with tension, knowing that both sides had played all their trump cards and would not stop unless one of them died!

  "Rumble, rumble——" The earth-shaking roar rolled and surged, and could be heard clearly even tens of miles away.

  Lei Guang, Jian Lan, Yuan Mang... The five-colored light blade's edge of life and death entwined in a killing frenzy, with beams of light constantly bursting forth amidst the intense collisions, only to twist and disperse into scattered petals.

  The surrounding "Great Prison Refining Demon Array" was blown into disarray, the red mist dispersing, attracting even more people to look over here.

  This moment is so long that people forget the passage of time.

  Even if one were to concentrate all their energy and focus their eyes, they would still be unable to see the figures of the three people in the arena, let alone determine who was winning or losing, or who lived or died.

  At last, he heard Li Yuanba's furious roar: "You green turtle, green and oily..." The voice changed from high to low, a figure covered in blood flew out of the depths of Guanglan, somehow grasping the drumming urn and golden hammer again, while tumbling and spitting blood.

  Chu Lie and Qiu Junyi both jumped up to catch Li Yuanba, but it was like being crushed by a huge mountain, shaking them until their vision went black.

  At the same time, Ye Fashan's Wind Dust Immortal Sword pierced through Guanglan and flew out, his Taoist robe was torn and bloody, his face pale as paper, shaking his head and panting: "This time's Taoist temple... suffered a great loss!"

  Before the words had fallen, the variegated old demon's primordial spirit light shadow floated and was blown out by a burst of explosive light wind, its body had shrunk to less than half of its original size, looking like it was severely injured and unable to support itself.

  His physical body was completely destroyed, and although he hated Ye Fashan and Li Yuanba to the bone, he knew that this place could not be stayed for long. He had to immediately flee thousands of miles away, either seize a new physical body or find an immortal artifact to temporarily store his primordial spirit. Otherwise, within three to two hours, his primordial spirit would completely disappear and return to nothingness.

  Xiao Si suddenly pushed open Wan'er, exerted herself to get up, and shouted at the fleeing soul of Ban Lao: "Old Toad, there are 108 vengeful spirits waiting for you on the road to the Yellow Spring!" With all her might, she burst a golden jade tube that was hot in her palm.

  "Hū——" One hundred and eight blood-colored light pillars converged from all directions, firmly enveloping the spotted old demon's primordial spirit.

  The mottled old demon let out a terrified roar, darting left and right within the massive blood halo woven from the intersecting light pillars, attempting to break free. However, his current strength was less than one-tenth of what it once was, and the thick layers of light converged together, forming an impenetrable barrier that seemed like copper walls and iron walls with no escape.

  In the midst of it, the light shield slowly transformed into a gigantic furnace that stood tall and swallowed up the entire figure of the old demon, leaving only a desperate and hoarse cry echoing out, but growing weaker and more despairing.

  After an unknown period of time, the spiritual energy of the furnace was finally exhausted, and the pillars of light gradually dimmed and dissipated, once again revealing the true self of the old demon, but its entire body had been thoroughly refined into a deep crimson color, completely losing all sense of spirituality.

  A seven-tiered pagoda rose into the air, capturing the remaining soul of the old demon and returning it to Xiao Si's hands. This was the Great Void Pagoda he had seized from Jian Yong's hands, a treasure of Buddhism that could suppress all evil demons and monsters, and also used to capture and transform the old demon.

  The greatest demon of all time has come to an end, never to be surpassed again.

  This scene stunned everyone, except for those 108 graves which remained silent and slowly dissipated their last rays of light.
