136: Triple Fantasy

The blade radiance was dazzling to the extreme.

The bone-chilling cold almost froze the air.

Boom!

It instantly collided with the attacks of the three, causing the air to compress continuously and emit rumbles.

Splat!

Ye Wuyou was sliced in half by the blade, her body severed, and blood sprayed across the sky.

The expressions of the other two changed.

But Chu Jiang's second strike had already descended, its power even greater than the first.

"Slash!"

The Blood Sun Saber tore through the Void Realm, directly crushing their attacks and skewering both the Nine-tailed Demon Lord and Ye Qingwan in one strike.

Their corpses fell into the Ziyang Demon-Locking Formation.

Chu Jiang frowned deeply.

"Fellow Daoist, something is wrong. These three shouldn't be this weak!"

Seeing the three of them slain by Chu Jiang's two strikes, Ghost Moon did not relax; instead, his expression remained highly tense.

"Is it still an illusion?"

Chu Jiang said in a deep voice.

The interface had not sent any notification of slaying demons, which meant that the three he had just killed were illusory bodies, not their true forms!

What kind of treasure was this? The scene was so realistic, and it could even create multiple illusions to trap enemies.

If they didn't find a way to break the illusion, they would be trapped here until they died, falling into an endless abyss.

As expected.

A place that could make him feel a trace of threat wouldn't be so simple.

"Fellow Daoist, buy me some time. I will break this illusion!" Immortal Master Ghost Moon said, a glimmer of realization flashing in his eyes.

This must be the Senluo Ghost Banner, one of the three great demon treasures of the Yunzhou Demon Realm.

He had once witnessed this demon treasure.

Its power was peerless.

However, it also had its weaknesses.

Give it time.

It could also be broken.

Chu Jiang nodded.

He was not good at breaking formations; it was best to leave this to the professionals.

The Nine-tailed Demon Lord and the others clearly sensed Ghost Moon's intention.

Although the illusion of the Senluo Ghost Banner was almost impossible to break, they still began to attack Ghost Moon frantically, just to be safe.

The Nine-tailed Demon Lord and Ye Qingwan were responsible for dealing with Chu Jiang.

Behold.

The Nine-tailed Demon Lord controlled the Senluo Ghost Banner, and a wave of Evil Qi instantly swept through the entire illusion; that complex Evil Qi caused one's Divine Soul to tremble involuntarily.

Their blood and Qi were partially suppressed.

Chu Jiang quickly cast a Nanming Li Fire Shield to protect Immortal Master Ghost Moon, preventing him from being affected by the Evil Qi.

Ye Qingwan was surrounded by mysterious black Qi, condensing a palm print; within her palm, it seemed as if a peerless Vicious Beast was being nurtured. Roars erupted everywhere, as if a demoness was riding a Vicious Beast to conquer the eight wildernesses, making everything submit.

At the same time, as Ye Qingwan attacked, an Extreme Yin Puppet stepped out of the Senluo Ghost Banner. Its entire body was forged from rare Materials, covered in green runes, and its Aura was terrifying.

The Senluo Ghost Banner contained tens of thousands of human Souls, but the Nine-tailed Demon Lord did not intend to use them. After communicating with Ye Qingwan, she knew that Chu Jiang was very likely to possess a Supreme Soul Realm, making most Soul-body attacks ineffective against him. Naturally, she had to adjust her strategy.

This Extreme Yin Puppet was forged from the flesh and blood of three thousand martial artists, plus the bones of a Peerless Grandmaster in body cultivation. It was crafted from a mixture of over a dozen rare Materials and was incredibly hard.

It feared no pain and knew no fatigue.

As long as it was given an order.

It would not hesitate, even if it meant climbing a mountain of blades or descending into a sea of fire.

The Vicious Beast palm print and the Extreme Yin Puppet arrived in an instant.

"If you want to kill me, this isn't enough!" Chu Jiang laughed loudly. His True Gang Heavenly Thunder Body erupted with full force, rolling thunder piercing the Void Realm ahead. The pure fire energy of the Yan Yang Earth Cave surged madly into Chu Jiang's body, and his Aura climbed continuously.

His Fire Spirit Body allowed him to utilize the surrounding energy to the greatest extent for his own use.

"Boom!"

With an explosive sound, the air shattered.

Chu Jiang blocked the combined attack of the Extreme Yin Puppet and the Vicious Beast palm print with his Physical Body alone. His fist power was peerless, sweeping away everything.

"Get lost!"

Chu Jiang's arms were like those of a thousand-armed Divine Venerable. With extreme speed, he frantically suppressed the Vicious Beast palm print. With just two punches, he shattered the Vicious Beast palm print and sent the Extreme Yin Puppet flying.

He was still within the illusion, and the person who cast the offensive technique was hidden, who knew how many layers of illusion away.

For now.

He could only rely on his Physical Body to fight the enemy and forcefully suppress them.

However, the Extreme Yin Puppet was completely fearless. With hollow eyes, it charged up again. Chu Jiang's previous attack had only left a fist mark on its Physical Body.

Chu Jiang fought the Extreme Yin Puppet again. The two sides clashed dozens of times, causing the Void Realm to tremble incessantly.

Due to the enhancement of the Yan Yang Earth Cave, Chu Jiang's Physical Body was almost equivalent to that of a Late Stage Peerless Grandmaster, allowing him to suppress the Extreme Yin Puppet.

But he could not destroy it.

This Extreme Yin Puppet.

It was the same as him; its Physical Body strength had reached that of a Peerless Grandmaster in body cultivation.

Unless one was a Supreme Grandmaster, it could not be destroyed.

This Puppet.

It had no Soul.

So it was impossible to use a Supreme Soul Realm to kill it.

Just then.

The illusion suddenly collapsed, but Ye Qingwan and the others were still nowhere to be seen.

Even so.

It made the Nine-tailed Demon Lord's expression change. She said: "I am currently controlling this Senluo Ghost Banner, and I can create at most three layers of illusion, each harder to break than the last."

"But this Ghost Moon likely knows the weaknesses of the Senluo Ghost Banner. Let's deal with him first; we cannot let them escape the illusion!"

Ye Qingwan nodded.

Their initial plan was to use the illusion-creating ability of the Senluo Ghost Banner to trap Chu Jiang inside, then hide behind multiple layers of illusion to attack him.

They would exhaust his True Essence and then use the Extreme Yin Puppet to grind down his Physical Body.

But all of this was based on the premise that the illusion would not be broken.

Once the illusion was broken and the Supreme Soul Realm swept through, it would be extremely difficult for them to kill Chu Jiang again.

The Nine-tailed Demon Lord continued to focus her attacks on Chu Jiang, while Ye Qingwan and her daughter diverted their energy to attack Ghost Moon, attempting to interrupt his process of breaking the illusion.

"Wan'er, do you really have to be so heartless? I only want to help you!" Ghost Moon looked at Ye Qingwan, who was attacking him, his eyes filled with affection, his body trembling.

In reality, he secretly increased the speed of breaking the illusion formation.

"Mother, don't trust him. He just wants to delay time to break the illusion formation!" Ye Wuyou said anxiously.

"Ghost Moon, at this point, you still dare to deceive me? Die!"

Ye Qingwan attacked in anger, a pair of large palms blasting directly toward Ghost Moon.

In her fury.

The Nanming Li Fire Shield was beaten until it was almost non-existent.

The second palm followed immediately.

Ye Qingwan showed no mercy, intending to kill Ghost Moon in one move.

A bright, thunderous Blood Sun Saber suddenly tore through the sky, crushing this attack and resolving the crisis.

"Chu Jiang, you can barely take care of yourself, yet you still have the energy to save others!" The Nine-tailed Demon Lord said coldly, ordering the Extreme Yin Puppet to entangle him at all costs.

Even if it meant losing some parts, as long as Ghost Moon died.

They could drag Chu Jiang to death within the illusion.

Chu Jiang saw the Puppet in front of him, sticking to him like a piece of dog-skin plaster.

"Blood Sea Thunder Domain, open!"

An incomparably powerful Aura shot straight into the sky, heavenly thunder rolled down, and boundless blood and Qi covered the entire Yan Yang Earth Cave.

"It's time to end this!"

At this moment, Chu Jiang's face was stern and cold. A peerless Blood Sun Saber appeared before him, thundering with immense force, instantly striking toward the Extreme Yin Puppet.

It seemed as if it could cleave everything in the world.

With a bang.

The Extreme Yin Puppet was struck, sent flying heavily for hundreds of meters, and several stone pillars in the Yan Yang Earth Cave were knocked down.

Large patches of runes fell from its body, and a fist-sized hole appeared in its chest, leaking eerie blood-sand.

Just then.

Ghost Moon finally broke through the last barrier of the third illusion, and the illusion of the Senluo Ghost Banner suddenly collapsed.

The Nine-tailed Demon Lord and the mother-daughter duo, Ye Qingwan, revealed their true forms, their expressions changing slightly.
