248: In the swamp, the stone fetus appears

“The second layer is complete!”

Xie Weilou stood up, his body brimming with terrifying battle intent.

The second layer of the Ten Thousand Tribulations Thunder Punishment Body had been successfully cultivated, and the twenty-four hidden meridians were completely unblocked, causing his combat power to surge once again.

Even more bizarrely, his thirty-six hidden meridians had also turned golden, and his Shackles Realm had reached its peak; even the blood flowing through his veins had turned golden.

After his bones turned golden, it affected his bone marrow, and as the hematopoietic system, the bone marrow also caused his blood to gradually turn golden, which was extremely strange.

At this moment, his vital energy and blood were vigorous, like a vast ocean, incredibly powerful.

Whoosh!

Xie Weilou took a step, instantly appearing before Lin Qinghuang.

Qinghuang observed Xie Weilou, saying with surprise, “It seems you’ve gained a lot.”

Xie Weilou smiled, “Qinghuang is also extraordinary. Your cultivation is almost catching up to mine. Given this situation, how about we have a close-quarters combat?”

“Heh heh!”

Lin Qinghuang glared fiercely at Xie Weilou, then said, “It’s time to leave.”

Xie Weilou nodded lightly, “Alright!”

The thunderous power here was no longer of much use to him. It was unrealistic to try to cultivate the third layer of the Ten Thousand Tribulations Thunder Punishment Body here.

“Roar!”

Suddenly, a terrifying roar echoed within Leize Canyon, and a mysterious pressure permeated the air, even dispersing some of the surrounding lightning.

“Divine Court……”

Xie Weilou and Lin Qinghuang’s gazes narrowed, and they immediately rushed out of the canyon.

A terrifying Divine Court Realm existence was actually hidden inside. Although they had made some progress this time, they had no confidence at all against a Divine Court Realm expert. Escaping was paramount!

“Roar!”

Just as the two left, a giant thunder beast appeared within the canyon. The thunder beast was enveloped in the pressure of the Divine Court Realm. It opened its mouth wide, forcibly swallowing countless bolts of lightning, causing the numerous thunder beasts in the canyon to tremble continuously……

Western direction.

A huge crack appeared in a swamp, which was one of the exits.

A group of people had gathered in the swamp at this moment, including Yan Ruyu, Yan Junlin, and Yan Qingcheng.

They were about to leave now. Many people had died during this trip to the Void Heaven Sword Arena, but some had also obtained great opportunities. Yan Ruyu and the others had good gains.

As for Sword Immortal and the others, they had not shown up since entering the eastern wasteland tower, and their life or death was unknown. It was also possible that they had encountered even greater opportunities and were doing their best to seize them.

“Kill her?”

Yan Qingcheng looked at Yan Junlin, her meaning clear: she wanted to kill Yan Ruyu.

Yan Junlin’s gaze fell on Yan Ruyu, and a coldness appeared in the depths of his eyes.

This was indeed a great threat, but he had no confidence at all in being able to kill Yan Ruyu.

“Yo! It’s quite lively here. The Void Heaven Sword Arena hides countless opportunities. Aren’t you all going to look for more?”

Just then, a faint laugh sounded as Xie Weilou flew over, with Lin Qinghuang following beside him.

“Hmm? It’s him……”

Yan Junlin looked at Xie Weilou, his face sinking. This guy had inexplicably attacked him before, which was utterly detestable.

Yan Ruyu was also staring at Xie Weilou, her brows slightly raised. For some reason, she felt that this person seemed even more terrifying than before.

Xie Weilou looked at Yan Junlin with a rich smile: “Fellow Daoist, I am Fan Wujiu, a rogue cultivator. I see that your divine light is restrained and your strength is extraordinary. How about we spar?”

Yan Junlin heard this and said indifferently, “Fellow Daoist Fan’s strength is powerful. I am ashamed of my inferiority.”

Xie Weilou chuckled, “Fellow Daoist, you’re joking. Being able to survive the Stone Embryo’s attack, your methods are not simple.”

Yan Qingcheng said calmly, “I’ll spar with you.”

Xie Weilou glanced at Yan Qingcheng, “You’re not worthy.”

“You……”

Yan Qingcheng’s face beneath her mask darkened.

Xie Weilou then looked at Yan Ruyu, “Little Lady Jin Yu, how about a fight? You can all come together. I’ll blast you all into dust with one punch.”

Previously, it was ‘Lord Jin Yu,’ but now he called her ‘Little Lady Jin Yu.’ How abrupt!

“……”

Yan Ruyu’s face was somewhat gloomy. She pulled out her blood-colored coffin. Want to fight?

Come on!

Let’s see who dies first.

Yan Junlin and the others saw Yan Ruyu pull out the blood-colored coffin, their eyes narrowed, and they instinctively retreated.

They didn’t know the origin of this coffin, but the pressure emanating from it made their hearts palpitate. Once this item erupted, it would surely possess world-destroying power.

Xie Weilou saw Yan Ruyu pull out the coffin and chuckled, “Little Lady Jin Yu, don’t be so excited! I was just kidding, how could I possibly kill you?”

“……”

Everyone was speechless. If he chickened out, he should just say so!

Boom!

At this moment, the gray Stone Embryo appeared in the sky. Its eyes were bloodthirsty, and a giant gray hand emerged, erupting with pressure, sealing off heaven and earth, and directly smashing towards the swamp.

“Oh no…… This monster is here again……”

Everyone’s faces instantly changed when they saw the gray Stone Embryo appear. This Stone Embryo had been quiet for more than ten days, but they didn’t expect it to appear again now.

Everyone instinctively tried to escape, but found that they were already sealed and couldn’t move, so they could only watch as the large palm print came crashing down.

“Trouble……”

Lin Qinghuang immediately stood in front of Xie Weilou, manifesting the eastern wasteland tower, and everyone else also brought out their trump cards.

Rumble!

The giant palm print struck down, and the entire swamp was instantly blown apart.

“Ah……”

A series of screams rang out, and some people were instantly blasted into ashes.

A moment later.

The palm print dispersed, and a few people were still standing at the scene.

Xie Weilou and Lin Qinghuang’s faces were extremely pale.

Fortunately, the eastern wasteland tower blocked most of the pressure, otherwise, if that large palm print had struck down just now, they would have been dead without a doubt.

Looking at the others, those who were still alive were Yan Junlin, Yan Qingcheng, Yan Ruyu, and her companions, Li Qiu and Chunsheng Jun.

Except for Yan Ruyu, the others were in a worse state, covered in blood, their auras weak, barely clinging to life.

“……”

Lin Qinghuang held the eastern wasteland tower, her body trembled, blood overflowing from the corner of her mouth, and her aura was chaotic, indicating she had suffered severe injuries.

Xie Weilou’s face sank, and he immediately reached out to support Lin Qinghuang.

“Roar!”

In the void, the gray Stone Embryo let out a roar, and its figure flashed, directly striking down. Its target was Lin Qinghuang; what Lin Qinghuang took from the pond seemed very important to it.

“Damn it!”

Xie Weilou’s face was grim, and he was about to unleash the Heavenly Book.

Just then, from one of his storage rings, the bronze egg automatically flew out, a burst of bronze runes permeated the air, and an ancient pressure erupted.

“……”

The gray Stone Embryo had just pounced over, but when it saw the bronze egg, a hint of fear appeared in the depths of its eyes, and it immediately retreated.

Seeing this, Xie Weilou’s eyes showed a strange look. Was this bronze egg so awesome? Its pressure could even deter the Stone Embryo?

“Retreat!”

Seeing the situation, Yan Junlin and Yan Qingcheng decisively rushed towards the crack.

Yan Ruyu also hurriedly led Li Qiu and Chunsheng Jun to escape, but the Stone Embryo targeted Yan Ruyu, brandishing a long spear and directly attacking Yan Ruyu.

“……”

Yan Ruyu’s pupils constricted. She formed a hand seal, and a surge of power directly pushed Li Qiu and Chunsheng Jun into the crack. She then activated her blood-colored coffin.

Boom!

The blood-colored coffin hovered in front of her, erupting with pressure, blocking the gray spear.

Pfft!

Yan Ruyu’s body trembled, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out.

“Roar!”

The gray Stone Embryo roared, its aura completely erupted, and the long spear in its hand struck out again.

Lin Qinghuang instinctively transmitted a message to Xie Weilou, “Should we intervene?”

Xie Weilou glanced at Yan Ruyu, “Who cares about her!”

After speaking, he directly put away the bronze egg, put his arm around Lin Qinghuang, and rushed into the crack.

Yan Ruyu: “……”

Her eyes hardened, and she suddenly opened the blood-colored coffin.

Buzz!

As the blood coffin opened, a mysterious pressure erupted, and a blood-red light shot up into the sky, instantly engulfing the entire world. Countless plants withered, and numerous mountains turned into dust……
