Now, in her heart, there was only regret. She had trusted the baseless words of Daoist Guifan and Daoist Heilong, and now she had dragged Cyan Nether Mountain into the abyss.
"How much blood essence is needed from the Inner Sect Elders and disciples of Cyan Nether Mountain?"
Daoist Hong Ling asked with a somber expression. She just wanted to preserve Cyan Nether Mountain as much as possible now.
"All of it!"
Daoist Guifan said bloodthirstily, then suddenly turned and glanced at Daoist Qixue behind Daoist Hong Ling, and continued.
"Or you can choose to sacrifice Daoist Qixue. After all, Daoist Qixue is a Guiyuan Realm Fourth Layer expert. The blood essence of one person would be enough for the entire Cyan Nether Mountain!"
"Can the Black Wind Heart Devouring Array truly kill Chu Ming completely?"
Daoist Hong Ling didn’t answer. She wasn’t a fool. Daoist Qixue was her lifeline. Even if the Black Wind Heart Devouring Array was ultimately broken, with Daoist Qixue’s protection, she might still escape safely. As for Cyan Nether Mountain, it naturally didn’t compare to Daoist Qixue in her heart.
"Of course, the Black Wind Heart Devouring Array is a Fourth Level Middle Tier Killing Array, enough to kill a Guiyuan Realm Fourth Layer expert. Even if Chu Ming had three heads and six arms, he would fall here today."
Daoist Guifan’s face was ferocious. At this moment, blood had already stained half of Ghost Mountain. The Cyan Nether Mountain plaza was filled with broken limbs, and the blood had formed into small streams.
"Ancestor, save us!!"
"Ancestor....."
One figure after another rose from Cyan Nether Mountain. These disciples and elders looked desperate, their eyes filled with despair. Seeing Daoist Hong Ling beside Daoist Guifan, a glimmer of hope appeared in their eyes, but seeing Daoist Hong Ling’s indifferent face, their hope was instantly extinguished.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
As more blood essence merged in, the Black Wind Heart Devouring Array began to operate rapidly. Streams of black wind swept toward Chu Ming, three men, and a beast. The void trembled, and the stones on the ground turned to dust under the black wind.
"Lord Chu, we must leave quickly, or it will be too late!"
The well-traveled Daoist Tianxing, knowing the horror of the Black Wind Heart Devouring Array, turned and warned Chu Ming.
"It’s already too late now!"
Chu Ming shook his head calmly. At this moment, the space formed by the Black Wind Heart Devouring Array was extremely stable, making it nearly impossible to break through with Daoist Tianxing’s power.
"What should we do then?"
Daoist Tianxing was a bit anxious. With his strength, facing the Black Wind Heart Devouring Array wouldn’t kill him outright, but it would severely weaken him, and facing Daoist Guifan would almost certainly be a death sentence.
"Relax!"
Chu Ming said calmly, then gently touched his Storage Ring with his right hand. Suddenly, a red crystal appeared in his hand, about the size of a fist, but containing violent power. The moment it appeared, the surrounding spiritual power became chaotic.
"Is that Fire Essence Crystal?"
Daoist Tianxing was slightly surprised. Fire Essence Crystal was extremely rare in the Celestial Realm because the power released by one Fire Essence Crystal could rival a full-force blow from a Guiyuan Realm Fifth Layer expert.
Now, he finally understood why Chu Ming was so confident. With the Fire Essence Crystal, Chu Ming had already taken the upper hand in this battle.
At the same time, a trace of envy flashed in Daoist Tianxing’s heart. Only a disciple of the Celestial Travel Sect like Chu Ming could obtain such a treasure.
One Fire Essence Crystal could sell for over a hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones at an auction, but it was priceless. This showed its true value.
"That’s right!"
Chu Ming nodded. This Fire Essence Crystal was something he exchanged before leaving the Celestial Travel Sect. He exchanged a total of three, costing him sixty thousand Contribution Points. Only someone as wealthy as him could spend sixty thousand Contribution Points on a consumable item.
"You two, fall back!"
Chu Ming told Daoist Tianxing and Rogue Extreme Heaven, then raised the Fire Essence Crystal in his hand. Daoist Tianxing and Rogue Extreme Heaven’s expressions changed slightly, and they immediately moved a hundred meters away from Chu Ming, their eyes flickering with fear.
Boom!
Just as Daoist Tianxing and Rogue Extreme Heaven moved away, Chu Ming threw the Fire Essence Crystal toward Daoist Guifan and Daoist Hong Ling. The speed was incredible, drawing a red line through the air, with a small flame flickering and jumping rapidly in space.
"What is that?!"
Daoist Hong Ling had been watching Chu Ming. The moment Chu Ming took out the Fire Essence Crystal, she noticed something was wrong. However, Chu Ming’s speed was too fast, and before she could ask Daoist Guifan, the Fire Essence Crystal was already upon them.
"Run!!!"
Daoist Guifan’s face changed dramatically. He wasn’t like Daoist Hong Ling. Fire Essence Crystals also existed in the Wudu Association, but exchanging one required an astronomical amount of Contribution Points. He never expected Chu Ming to have a Fire Essence Crystal.
The power of one Fire Essence Crystal was enough to obliterate him completely, leaving no trace.
Daoist Hong Ling’s gaze turned cold. As the Fire Essence Crystal approached, she felt its violent and powerful force. However, it was too late to escape now. Suddenly, a middle-aged figure stepped in front of Daoist Hong Ling, protecting her firmly.
Boom!
At that moment, the Fire Essence Crystal exploded. A terrifying red shockwave radiated outwards from Ghost Mountain, turning everything within a kilometer to dust. Half of the Cyan Nether Mountain gate was destroyed.
The red pillar reached the sky, visible even from miles away. Even though Chu Ming, Daoist Tianxing, and Rogue Extreme Heaven were far away, they were still pushed back several meters by the shockwave, their faces pale.
"So strong!"
The power of the Fire Essence Crystal far exceeded his expectations. At this moment, he felt the sixty thousand Contribution Points were well spent.
"Let’s go over!"
As the smoke began to clear, Chu Ming told Daoist Tianxing and Rogue Extreme Heaven. The Black Wind Heart Devouring Array had long been thoroughly destroyed by the Fire Essence Crystal.
Swoosh!
However, as the three neared the Cyan Nether Mountain gate, a red figure suddenly flew up from the ground and fled into the distance at incredible speed.
Daoist Hong Ling!
At this moment, Daoist Hong Ling was in a sorry state. Her clothes were tattered, her body covered in blood, her hair disheveled, her whole aura was weak. But what shocked Chu Ming and Daoist Tianxing was that Daoist Hong Ling was still alive. Even though Daoist Guifan was completely annihilated by the Fire Essence Crystal, Daoist Hong Ling survived.
What they didn’t know was that the moment the Fire Essence Crystal exploded, Daoist Hong Ling, realizing she couldn’t escape, had used Daoist Qixue as a shield.
