418: Park Young-myung, unwilling to accept defeat

[Ding! Congratulations Master for slaying Qian Yingshan. Luck Value +650, Qian Yingshan's Luck Value has been cleared!]

Ji Wuchang had no time to pay attention to the System's voice because the Peak Rank Six Demon Ape was emitting a terrifying, malevolent aura.

This pressure was extremely terrifying; even Ji Wuchang felt like a small boat in the middle of a vast ocean, liable to be overturned at any moment!

He reached out and grabbed several Storage Rings, then his body flickered and he vanished instantly!

Pu Yongming let out a shrill scream. His severed leg made it impossible for him to stay in the air, and he fell straight to the ground.

Normally, with his cultivation at the Dao Severing Realm, limb Rebirth wouldn't be difficult; it would only require consuming some essence blood.

However, the pitch-black iron chains contained a poison unique to the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls.

This poison was extremely formidable; not only could it circulate through the blood to the entire body, but it could also corrode the spiritual power within.

In just a few moments, the poison had already spread throughout Pu Yongming's body.

The spiritual power inside Pu Yongming's body desperately protected his Dantian, heart vessels, and Divine Soul. Then, he circulated his body's blood and Qi to force the poison out of his body through the wound.

But the effect didn't seem as good as imagined. He felt stars dancing before his eyes, and a foul stench emanated from within his body.

Just then, a terrifying roar came from not far away. A massive Demon Ape appeared in the distance.

Although Pu Yongming's vision was a bit blurry and he couldn't see clearly, the terrifying pressure emitted by the Demon Ape made his Divine Soul tremble.

While Pu Yongming was struggling in pain, another man in black from the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls was glaring with such intensity that his eyes nearly split open.

He finally realized that Ji Wuchang was not one of them at all, but the person their new Hall Master had specifically ordered to be killed.

The iron chains on the opponent were enough to explain everything; his hands were stained with the blood of the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls.

"Ji Wuchang, you're dead!"

The man in black from the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls roared, and the iron chains in his hands swelled several times in size as he smashed them down toward Ji Xiao's head!

Since Ji Wuchang had disappeared, he vented all his pent-up rage onto Ji Xiao!

Ji Xiao's eyes were now filled with fear, and he no longer had any of his initial high spirits.

He had originally thought that the six of them killing a single Ji Wuchang would be as easy as taking something from one's pocket, but he hadn't expected the opponent to be so terrifying.

Facing the attack from the person of the Hall of Ten Thousand Souls, Ji Xiao became increasingly flustered.

Sensing the terrifying sound of an explosion above his head, Ji Xiao gritted his teeth, took out a Jade Slip, and crushed it.

The moment the Jade Slip shattered, a black hole appeared at his feet. Ji Xiao stepped forward and vanished directly into the black hole.

This was a life-saving measure given to him by his family elders—a short-distance portable teleportation array that could travel three hundred miles in an instant.

He had been reluctant to use it, but in this moment of life and death, how could he dare to hold back?

The pitch-black iron chains lost their target and smashed violently into the mountain Peak below.

With a loud "boom," the entire mountain Peak exploded, being smashed down and collapsing by brute force.

Killing intent surged in the eyes of the man in black. Hearing the roar of the Demon Ape behind him, his gaze remained cold.

"Thinking you can escape from the hands of my Hall of Ten Thousand Souls is a pipe dream. Ten Thousand Mile Tracking!"

After the man in black finished speaking, his body instantly faded and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, the Secret Realm was in a state of chaos because of the appearance of the Demon Ape.

People from Jucang City, Mianhe City, and Jianyang City were fleeing frantically, their eyes filled with fear.

The Demon Ape had been attracted by the battle between Ji Xiao and the others, but with the disappearance of Ji Xiao and the man in black, it turned around and charged toward them.

Pu Yongming, who had been hanging by a thread, was lucky; the Demon Ape was repulsed by the poison all over him.

"Brother Song, help!"

A man from Mianhe City cried out in alarm, his eyes full of fear, as the Peak Rank Six Demon Ape was only dozens of meters away from him.

Song Zhengming was already a thousand feet away. Hearing the voice, he glanced back but had no intention of stopping.

Just then, the Peak Rank Six Demon Ape opened its massive mouth and inhaled forcefully, creating a terrifying suction force.

The man from Mianhe City had no control over his body as he flew straight toward the Demon Ape's maw.

A shrill, terrified, and desperate scream escaped his mouth, echoing far and wide, causing those fleeing ahead to have their Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.

"Crack!"

The sound of bones shattering rang out, and the scream came to an abrupt end.

Someone couldn't help but look back and was instantly drained of color from fear.

The person from Mianhe City was already in the Demon Ape's mouth, with only one foot still visible outside.

Blood dripped from the corners of the Demon Ape's mouth, looking exceptionally terrifying.

"Run! This Demon Ape has started eating people!"

A woman screamed, her whole body turning weak, nearly falling from the sky.

Hearing the woman's words, the others exerted every ounce of strength they had, fleeing frantically toward the exit.

Watching this from a distance, Pu Yongming's face turned pale with fright, yet he secretly felt lucky.

Through his efforts, the pitch-black blood was continuously being forced out of his body.

As the blood hit the ground, puffs of white smoke rose instantly, and the surrounding flora withered away.

"Ji Wuchang, I will kill you!"

Pu Yongming roared in anger, his face twisted into a hideous expression.

He no longer cared about some Lord's designated Clone; at this moment, Pu Yongming's eyes were filled with endless killing intent.

Just then, a pitch-black flying needle suddenly appeared. It was as fast as a bolt of lightning, and before Pu Yongming could react, it pierced straight into his brow.

The force of the needle was immense; it exited through the back of his head and plunged into the ground, vanishing without a trace.

Pu Yongming's eyes were instantly filled with fear as he looked at the Void Realm not far away in disbelief.

His previously hideous expression gradually froze, leaving only a face full of resentment!

His Divine Soul flew out of his body, its form saturated with fear.

The moment his Divine Soul emerged, a great seal appeared above it, like a dark cloud blotting out the sky.

A terrifying suction force emanated from the seal. Amidst Pu Yongming's shrill screams, his Divine Soul was pulled toward it.

"Ji Wuchang, even as a ghost, I won't let..."

Before Pu Yongming could finish, his Divine Soul was swallowed directly by the great seal.

A figure stepped out from the Void Realm—it was Ji Wuchang. With a wave of his hand, the seal returned to him.

This great seal was, of course, the Great Seal of Ten Thousand Evils. During his recent slaughter, almost all the Divine Souls of those he had killed were swallowed by it.

At this moment, about half of the patterns on the Great Seal of Ten Thousand Evils were lit up, and a terrifying pressure emanated from it.

Ji Wuchang reached out and took Pu Yongming's Storage Ring; as for the corpse, he didn't bother with it.

He naturally wouldn't leave just like that. He wouldn't let a single person who wanted to kill him go—they all had to die!
