"Life on the left, death on the right... Power of Creation... embracing life and death... refining heaven and earth!"
In the Soul Sea, the booming voice of Fang Chen resonated from the Dan Furnace, echoing throughout this realm.
Beneath the Dan Furnace, the Power of Creation, resembling a white flame, suddenly trembled violently at that moment. It began to spin rapidly like a vortex. The vortex spun faster and faster, gradually releasing faint black mist.
The Power of Creation, which was originally entirely white, now displayed a distinct half-black, half-white appearance. Moreover, two completely different auras—one of death and one of life—swept out from the half-black, half-white Power of Creation.
"Refine!" Fang Chen commanded.
In an instant, the Power of Creation beneath the Dan Furnace, carrying the contrasting auras of life and death, separated into two terrifying Fire Lotuses, one black and one white. The Fire Lotuses gently trembled as their lotus leaves floated into the Dan Furnace amidst the constricting pupils of the shadow.
Boom!
The moment the two Fire Lotuses entered, the Dan Furnace, formed entirely from Fang Chen's Soul Power, suddenly shook violently. The Lotus of Life and the Death Lotus ignored the shadow within the Dan Furnace and instead began to collide with each other immediately. These two powers, separated from the Power of Creation, seemed to be madly devouring one another. The black and white lights shone brightly for a moment.
Watching warily from a distance as shapes gradually faded away, only clearly seeing the two glowing orbs of black and white clashing with each other, the shadow's sense of vigilance did not diminish in the slightest. He could feel that within these distinctly colored orbs, a terrifying aura was slowly intensifying.
Suddenly, the shadow's pupils constricted sharply. In his line of sight, those two orbs clashing violently suddenly fell silent in an instant. A half-black, half-white grinding disc unexpectedly emerged from within.
This grinding disc was about half the size of the shadow itself; its upper half was white while its lower half was entirely black. The stark contrast looked extremely peculiar. However, at the moment this grinding disc appeared, an irresistible pulling force surged forth from it, directly drawing the shadow into its depths.
"Life and Death Great Millstone, crush!" Fang Chen coldly commanded. Instantly, a chilling sense of slaughter surged within the Dan Furnace.
The Soul Power transformed into the Dan Furnace, and the Power of Creation became dan fire; although extraordinary, it was not Fang Chen's most powerful method. At this moment, it was the Life and Death Great Millstone, formed after the mutation of the Power of Creation, that represented his true trump card—a powerful weapon capable of completely crushing this strand of Nirvana Realm's True Soul!
Boom!
The Life and Death Great Millstone of Black and White slowly turned, emitting a series of booming sounds that echoed in all directions. The shadow being pulled into the millstone was undergoing crushing pressure, and its complexion changed drastically as the swirling black mist around it suddenly dissipated significantly. A gaunt figure appeared in Fang Chen's line of sight.
"No!" the shadow screamed, its previously aloof and indifferent expression replaced by intense fear. Realizing that its soul power was continuously weakening, it truly panicked.
With both hands pressed against the Life and Death Great Millstone, the shadow desperately tried to break free. However, at that moment, the Dan Furnace trembled again, and chains formed from Soul Power lunged at the shadow like dragons, binding it tightly.
"Just become a Soul Pill peacefully," Fang Chen said coldly.
He knew very well that the reason he was able to gain a complete advantage this time was not only due to his own powerful Soul Power but also because this strand of True Soul from a Nirvana Realm expert had underestimated him, which Fang Chen had taken full advantage of.
Moreover, since this True Soul had hidden itself within the Underworld Evil Eye, entering Fang Chen's Soul Sea was an unprecedented opportunity for him. If this True Soul had remained hidden in the Underworld Evil Eye, Fang Chen would have had no way to deal with it. But this time was clearly different...
"Crush it for me!" Fang Chen shouted angrily. While binding the shadow with his Soul Power, he manipulated the Life and Death Great Millstone. He understood that if he could not completely eliminate this True Soul now, it would eventually hide away and blend into the Underworld Evil Eye, remaining a ticking time bomb for him. At that point, Fang Chen would not have another chance to strike at it as he did now, sending it effortlessly into the Dan Furnace.
In short, this time, he had to completely refine this True Soul!
Fang Chen's resolve hardened as the aura emitted by the Life and Death Great Millstone under his control became even more intimidating. The shadow was firmly bound despite Fang Chen consuming a large amount of Soul Power, forced to endure the millstone crushing it inch by inch. The figure formed from Soul Power was gradually collapsing!
As long as this True Soul from the Nirvana Realm completely shattered and transformed back into fragmented Soul Power, Fang Chen was confident he could refine it into an unprecedented Super Soul Pill!
A dangerous battle unfolded in Fang Chen's Soul Sea. Meanwhile, outside, Lian Yiyue watched anxiously as she saw Fang Chen's body encased in ice while feeling utterly helpless.
Suddenly, her expression changed dramatically.
Someone was approaching the small grove!
Half an hour had passed since the chaotic slaughter that took place in the small grove. During this time, there had been no movement from within the grove, and the layer of blood mist that hung above had dissipated. Yet, no one had emerged from the grove. This left the martial artists waiting outside filled with doubts, prompting them to slowly approach the small grove once more.
"What exactly happened in there?" a hulking youth, dressed in simple cloth and wielding a long staff, cautiously approached the grove.
As he spoke to himself, he scanned his surroundings with great caution. He had arrived later and, although he hadn't witnessed the terrifying scene half an hour ago, he had heard enough from others. As he drew closer to the grove, a chill crept into his heart.
One step, two steps, three steps... After taking several steps, the hulking youth finally entered the small grove. However, at that moment, his pupils suddenly constricted sharply. His previously vigilant mind faltered for a moment due to the sight of scattered corpses on the ground. Just then, a sharp flash of sword light suddenly shot out from behind him, wrapping lightly around his neck.
A line of blood spurted from his neck as the look of horror on his face froze. Before he could even see who had attacked him from behind, his body collapsed with a thud, joining the pile of corpses on the ground.
"I wonder how much longer we can hold out?" Lian Yiyue panted lightly as she looked at the hulking youth's corpse and murmured to herself. Currently, only a few people had entered the small grove; she could still take advantage of their momentary shock at seeing all the corpses to strike and kill them instantly. However, once more people entered, it would become increasingly difficult to launch surprise attacks. She and Fang Chen would inevitably be exposed to many eyes and would find it hard to escape.
Casting a deep glance at Fang Chen, who remained standing in place covered in frost, Lian Yiyue suddenly turned and darted toward her next target.
The sound of soft hisses echoed continuously through the small grove; each sound signified another person falling under Lian Yiyue's blade.
Panting heavily... Beneath an ancient tree, Lian Yiyue leaned against its trunk with her sword propped up beside her, her face pale. With her soul injured, her strength was greatly diminished and she struggled to endure prolonged combat; her mental energy was depleting rapidly.
This fleeting opportunity for surprise attacks required immense focus; not only did she need to seize the right moment but also condense her attack to perfection. Moreover, to prevent anyone from gathering in the small grove, she hadn’t even taken a moment to rest or catch her breath. After killing seven martial artists who entered the grove, Lian Yiyue's condition was already dire; she was on the verge of exhaustion.
Sighing softly and glancing once more at the motionless Fang Chen, Lian Yiyue swayed her weak body and fought against the dizziness in her head as she prepared to rise again.
However, at that moment, a severe wave of Qi Energy suddenly shot toward Lian Yiyue from her side.
Bang!
At the last moment, Lian Yiyue realized she could only hold her sword to defend herself. However, although the Qi Energy from Severe was blocked by the sword, the overwhelming force that surged from the blade still sent Lian Yiyue flying.
Spitting out a mouthful of blood, her aura weakened further. Lian Yiyue struggled to stand up quickly, but upon seeing the figure before her, her pale face lost all color.
"Monsoon," she said with a bitter smile.
This was an opponent stronger than she had ever faced at her peak. Lian Yiyue knew very well that given her current physical condition, there was no chance for her to escape.
"Fairy Lunar, I would trouble you to come with me," Monsoon said with a smile, extending his hand in a gesture of invitation toward Lian Yiyue.
"I didn't expect that the esteemed Daozi of the Season Family would be compelled by these two quotas," Lian Yiyue scoffed, a hint of undisguised mockery on her pale face.
The Season Family was an ancient and powerful clan within the Great Zhao Kingdom, rivaling some first-rate sects in strength. In fact, due to its long-standing existence, its foundation was profound and awe-inspiring. The title of Daozi was reserved for the most outstanding individuals among the current generation of the Season Family. Given Monsoon's status, it was indeed somewhat beneath him to take action against Lian Yiyue in this situation.
However, in response to Lian Yiyue's mockery, Monsoon remained unperturbed and simply smiled as he explained, "There are quite a few people from the Season Family this time. I lack confidence in bringing them all to Ziyang Sect, so I can only borrow these two quotas."
As he spoke, he clapped his hands, and suddenly three more figures emerged from the forest behind him.
