709: Chapter Wanhun Blood Pearl, try to revive

In the outer domain, the Beast God Sect's headquarters resembled an ancient and mysterious castle, thus nestled within this canyon.

This was the Beast God Sect’s core territory, and today all high-ranking members had gathered here.

Inside the innermost Cultivation chamber, Hu Lai's tightly shut eyes slowly opened, his gaze like a deep lake.

His previously magnificent Qi receded like a tide, and he was now as calm as an ordinary person.

Just then, a figure appeared in the room like a ghost.

This was Jian Changsheng, a stern-faced middle-aged man, and the Beast God Sect's strongest cultivator after Hu Lai.

"Sect Master, Elder Wang Er and the others are back!"

A hint of excitement was in Jian Changsheng's voice as he looked at Hu Lai, a flicker of anticipation in his eyes.

Hu Lai's face had been as calm as still water, but upon hearing this news, he couldn't help but show surprise.

He had waited decades for this moment, and now his long-cherished wish was finally about to be fulfilled.

"Are all the Materials ready?"

Hu Lai's voice was a little low, but the excitement within it was hard to conceal.

"Yes, Sect Master, all the Materials are prepared."

Hu Lai took a deep breath, seemingly trying to calm his inner agitation.

However, Jian Changsheng's next sentence made him frown slightly.

"However, Qingying and that boy Xu Feng haven't returned. Should we contact them?

But if we do, the revival plan might be delayed for another two days."

Jian Changsheng paused, then continued, "Moreover, I don't recommend having them return.

They've been dispatched to the Nether Blood Sea, where the situation is very complex; forcibly taking people away might arouse suspicion from Great Xia."

Hu Lai was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, agreeing with Jian Changsheng's view.

"If that's the case, then we won't call them.

It won't be too late for us to reunite after Ning Bing is revived."

Hu Lai's voice held a hint of helplessness, but more than that, it was filled with anticipation for the future.

A moment later, Elder Antu, Elder Wang Er, and the other four Elders, each carrying several Myriad Soul Blood Pearls, arrived before Hu Lai and Jian Changsheng.

"Leader, let's begin, Sister Ning Bing should wake up!"

Elder Wang Er looked at Hu Lai with anticipation, and Hu Lai took the Myriad Soul Blood Pearls from their hands; adding them to those they had already collected, there were a total of sixty-six Myriad Soul Blood Pearls!

"Good!"

Hu Lai responded, then led everyone to where Leng Ningbing's body was sealed in an ice coffin.

It was exceptionally cold here, with thick frost covering the surrounding walls, as if they had entered a world of ice and snow.

Hu Lai walked to the ice coffin, gently stroked the patterns on its lid, then carefully opened it.

A blast of cold air rushed out, making everyone shiver.

Inside the ice coffin, Leng Ningbing lay quietly, her face still exquisitely beautiful, like a sleeping Fairy.

Hu Lai took a deep breath, composed himself, then took out the Myriad Soul Blood Pearls, each emitting an eerie red glow, from his embrace.

These Blood Pearls exuded a terrifying aura, as if containing endless resentment and evil.

Hu Lai precisely placed these Myriad Soul Blood Pearls in specific positions, each corresponding to a pattern on the ice coffin.

Once everything was set, Hu Lai chanted incantations and formed hand seals, and a blood-colored barrier slowly rose, enveloping everyone.

Elder Wang Er and the others were not surprised by this scene; they seemed to have known this would happen.

Their gazes were fixed on the exquisite figure inside the central ice coffin, complex emotions showing in their eyes.

Hu Lai then took out a strange mirror from his embrace; its surface was an unusual dark red, with some blurry patterns on it.

He held the mirror up to his eyes, and through it, there was a blurry figure inside.

Although her face couldn't be seen clearly, from her graceful posture and flowing long hair, it was vaguely discernible that this was a woman.

"You'd better not have lied to me, otherwise you will surely die!"

Hu Lai stared intently at the figure in the mirror, his eyes filled with wariness and coldness.

His voice was low and carried a hint of killing intent, sending shivers down one's spine.

"Heh heh heh, Hu Lai, I've helped you so much, and this is your attitude towards me?"

Suddenly, a delicate laugh came from within the mirror; the voice was clear and pleasant, yet it carried a bone-chilling coldness.

The figure in the mirror was alive!

"We are merely using each other. Fulfill my demands, and I will give you what you want; otherwise, you will get nothing!"

Hu Lai's words carried an undeniable resolve, and the woman in the mirror did not seem angered, only her laughter grew longer, with a hint of playfulness.

"Rest assured, Sect Master Hu Lai, I, Blood Consort, always keep my word.

As long as you act according to our agreement, your wife's revival will be a given, but I also hope you can fulfill what I seek."

With that, the Blood Consort's figure in the mirror gradually blurred, as if dissolving into nothingness.

Hu Lai put away the mirror, his gaze falling once more upon the ice coffin, his eyes showing a complex mix of determination and tenderness.

He took a deep breath, formed hand seals, and began to chant incantations.

As the incantations sounded, the surrounding blood-colored barrier began to glow with an even more dazzling light.

The Myriad Soul Blood Pearls seemed to be activated, releasing bursts of mournful wails, which were then rapidly absorbed into the barrier.

"Lend me your strength!"

Hu Lai's voice echoed within the blood-colored barrier; Elder Antu, Elder Wang Er, and the other Elders, hearing this, all looked solemn and formed hand seals!

In an instant, threads of blood emerged, and soon the barrier was filled with them, but they all flew towards Leng Ningbing in the ice coffin.

Time passed minute by minute, and the atmosphere within the blood-colored barrier grew increasingly tense and eerie.

Suddenly, fine cracks began to appear on the surface of the ice coffin.

Following this, a powerful surge of cold air erupted from within, forming a stark contrast with the blood Qi inside the barrier, yet miraculously fusing together.

"Soon, it's almost time!"

A fanatic gleam flashed in Hu Lai's eyes; he knew that the arrival of this crucial moment meant their decades of planning were about to bear fruit.

Just then, the ice coffin shattered with a boom, and the figure, previously like a sleeping beauty, slowly rose.
