Inside the ruins of the Eternal Dragon Palace.
Chuyu, Weng Xue, Hua Jin, Zhi Guan, Yin Ying, and the others were shocked in reaction. They used the Sky Sealing Formation of the Nine Absolutes to see what was happening outside.
"Who is that?"
"That's Qing Ruo! She looked different, but her aura had not changed at all!"
"So, there it is…"
When they recognized this newly arrived person, the initially confused group actually calmed down.
When Feng Zun left, he gave them instructions on how to deal with this, and he left many methods in reserve. All of this preparation was to make sure they could handle Qing Ruo when she came back.
"Weng Xue, you and Hua Jin should tell the others not to panic," Chuyu said calmly. He did not lose his calm at all. "Mr Zhi Guan, Miss Yin Ying, let's activate the Sky Sealing Formation of the Nine Absolutes and annihilate him!"
"Understood!"
Everyone agrees.
Beyond the ruins.
The wind and clouds changed color, and the river roiled.
The snow-white sword, which was forged on the backbone of the sword slave, returned to the world!
Clangs!
The sword roared like an ancient demon god, shaking the sky, moving the wind and dispersing the clouds.
The sword light that was so sharp was very eye-stinging. Like the scorching sun, it shone very extreme as it illuminated the entire expanse of the Great Liangzhu River.
Upon closer inspection, the sword was forged from the Heavenly Bone Jade, which shone like a crystal, and exuded a boundless terrifying aura.
Two words were written on its hilt with a small crinkled character the size of a fly head, Heavenly Calamity!
By the time the sword was in his hands, the sword slave "Qing Ruo", who had aged, his skin cracked and cracked, as if every drop of his life force and vitality had been squeezed out.
"You're no longer useful."
A cold and unnatural voice emanated from within the snow-white Heavenly Calamity Sword.
Later then...
Bang out!
The gray-robed man who was a sword slave was increasingly withered, suddenly exploding into nothingness.
Then, an illusory figure floated above the Heavenly Calamity Sword, a handsome man in black robes.
This was the original form of Qing Ruo's sword spirit!
He stood with his hands behind his back as he stared at the gate of the Eternal Dragon Palace Ruins.
A cold smile fell on his lips as he whispered to himself, "Even if Feng Zun were here, he would have trouble escaping death. What is the use of this paltry Sky Sealing Formation of the Nine Absolutes to you guys?"
He was the weapon spirit of the Heavenly Calamity Sword, the personal weapon of the second generation leader of the Eternal Dragon Palace. How could he not know the mystery behind the Sky Sealing Formation of the Nine Absolutes?
"Destroy it!"
Qing Ruo swung her arm and slashed at the void.
Bang out!
The sword humming shook the sky with an explosion. The Heavenly Calamity Sword, soared into the air, then slashed down so fiercely.
The entire Sky Sealing Formation of the Nine Absolutes surged violently, then its power manifested countless dao runes, with a radiance of divine light piercing through the sky.
But Qing Ruo's slash easily split the divine radiance apart.
Swoshis!
Qing Ruo took a step forward, darting into the formation.
Chuyu had been waiting for an opportunity all along, and when she saw this, she did not hesitate to issue an order.
"As soon as he stepped through the ruins gate, activate the entire strength of the formation and trap him in it! Then, Lian Ling could attack and kill him herself!"
"Understood!"
Yin Ying and Zhi Guan nodded in agreement.
But when Qing Ruo was just about to step into the gate...
The Soul Shackling Lantern that Feng Zun had sealed within the Sky Sealing Formation suddenly shot forward.
"Qing Ruo, quickly run...!!"
The illusory figure of a white-haired woman in a red dress floated above the lantern and shouted in panic.
This was none other than the sword spirit Lian Ling!
Feng Zun had saved Lian Ling because he swore, as long as Qing Ruo dared to appear, he alone would kill her.
Who would have thought that he would now betray them?
"Lian Ling, don't be afraid! Formations like this can't do anything to me." When he saw the familiar figure of Lian Ling, excitement appeared on Qing Ruo's face.
"After I destroy the formation, I will immediately take you away, then release you from the Soul Shackling Lantern."
"You want to let go? You're really dreaming!" Chuyu laughed coldly.
As he spoke, a talisman appeared in his hand, which he suddenly activated.
Bang out!
The talisman lit up, and the Soul Shackling Lantern trembled violently. The axis on the lantern exploded with a bloody and piercing Dao light, which ruthlessly suppressed Lian Ling.
Lian Ling's illusory figure was almost shattered, and she screamed in pain.
This was the talisman that Feng Zun had left behind just in case Lian Ling attacked him.
When activated, it could awaken the power of the Soul Shackling Lantern to seal and suppress Lian Ling.
"Lian Ling!"
Qing Ruo's eyes reddened in anger, then shone with a terrifying and ferocious unnatural light.
He shouted, "Stop! Otherwise, I'll slaughter all of you!"
As he spoke, he aimed at the Heavenly Calamity Sword, and attacked with all his might.
Bang out! Bang out! Bang out!
Line after line of ferocious and unnatural sword qi light descended, making the formation tremble violently.
It was as if Qing Ruo was already completely insane.
Chuyu furrowed her brows.
He had originally planned on waiting until Qing Ruo reached the ruins gate, then used the strength of the formation to suppress it. It could have trapped him completely, he couldn't possibly escape, even if he had a thousand wings.
But now, that's definitely not possible anymore.
"Forget over! First, let's force him to retreat!"
Chuyu gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
A moment later, he, Yin Ying, and Zhi Guan joined forces, circulating the Nine Absolute Celestial Sealing Formation with all of their strength.
Bang out!
A gigantic arc of light that materialized from the strength of the formation swept over Qing Ruo like a god whip.
In a few blinks of an eye, Qing Ruo was forced to retreat, her hair was disheveled, and the look on her face had changed.
He suddenly realized that the strength of the formation had changed a lot. Someone had clearly changed and rearranged many secrets within!
"Qing Ruo, run quickly! The moment Feng Zun left, he had abandoned all sorts of methods to kill you!"
Lian Ling's agonizing and frantic voice emanated from the Soul Shackling Lantern.
The source of his strength had fused with that lantern artifact. When Chuyu activated the talisman that Feng Zun had left behind, it had left him suffering to no end.
"Feng Zun's? He again, that bastard!" Qing Ruo's eyes turned red, and the look on her face changed.
He gritted his teeth so hard that it was almost crushed.
A moment later, he took a deep breath, his eyes full of madness, "Lian Ling, I've been waiting for countless years. This time, no matter what happens, I have to take you away with me. Even if I die, I want to die with you!"
Clangs!
Even before his voice finished echoing in the air, the Heavenly Calamity Sword shook violently and exploded with a terrifying blood-colored light. Every inch of that sword seemed to burn with anger.
"Destroy it!!!"
Qing Ruo roared furiously as if she had gone mad.
He swung his sword and attacked, charging towards the lantern hidden deep within the formation.
The layer of formation power attacked like a god whip, but surprisingly, the terrifying blood-colored sword qi managed to suppress it!
Chuyu's pupils constricted, and inwardly he cried out in fear.
He would not have expected Qing Ruo to be this strong, when he fought without caring for his life anymore!
"Shelf! Cracks! Cracks!"
Inside the formation, Qing Ruo fought like a wrathful demon god. He broke through layer after layer of formation power, and it seemed like he was able to destroy everything that was blocking his path.
