184: Chapter 184 Framing the Blackthorn Cult

Bang!!

Just as Yu Jiajia was exerting all her strength to block the attacks from the Nirvana Demon Pupil and the human emperor flag, that hideous and terrifying monster Primordial Spirit quietly appeared behind her and launched a lightning-fast sneak attack!

Accompanied by a dull explosion echoing through the air, Yu Jiajia suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. Her back was mangled, and she was sent flying instantly, suffering heavy injuries!

This monster had the cultivation of the fourth level of the Void Refinement Stage and was not much weaker than Yu Jiajia. Under its full-force sneak attack, not only was Yu Jiajia severely injured, but the Seven Star Palace Cultivators behind her also exploded, turning into mists of blood like blooming crimson fireworks.

"Not good—"

Although Yu Jiajia immediately activated several Magic Treasures to protect her body, her heart sank abruptly.

Ji Taichang alone was difficult enough to deal with, and with the addition of a monster Primordial Spirit at the fourth level of the Void Refinement Stage, she stood absolutely no chance!

Moreover, looking at Ji Taichang's relaxed demeanor, it was clear he still had stronger hidden cards that he hadn't used yet!

"Flee!!"

"I must get the message back to the Sect!"

Yu Jiajia instantly made the most correct decision and shot straight up into the sky.

"You want to run now?"

"It is too late."

Ji Taichang sneered, holding the human emperor flag. As black light filled the sky and black chains rattled, the shocking fluctuation of energy spread, causing Yu Jiajia's consciousness to blur as she suffered a terrifying Soul attack.

Although she quickly broke free from the influence of the human emperor flag, the azure kite sword had already slashed before her, its sharpness fully exposed!

The monster's three hideous snake heads also opened their mouths and roared, spewing out three different beams of light: one of poisonous gas, one of ice power, and the other of flame, all bombarding Yu Jiajia simultaneously!

Even with Magic Treasures protecting her, facing this pincer attack, Yu Jiajia still suffered quite a bit, with blood spilling from the corners of her mouth.

Accompanied by deafening roars ringing out one after another, this battle became increasingly intense!

Yun Qiyao hid inside the human emperor flag to observe the battle, the look of astonishment in her eyes growing ever more intense.

With a cultivation at the fifth level of the Soul Transformation Stage, he was suppressing a powerful expert at the fifth level of the Void Refinement Stage across cultivation ranks!

Not to mention whether anyone in the history of the Eastern Desolate Region had ever achieved this, it was a miracle that ordinary people wouldn't even dare to imagine!

Boom!!

Just as Yu Jiajia's injuries were becoming increasingly severe and she was teetering on the brink of collapse, she decisively detonated her Physical Body, creating an earth-shattering explosion that blasted Ji Taichang and the monster back, leaving them heavily injured.

The barrier of the human emperor flag was also forcibly blasted open with a huge gap.

Yu Jiajia's Primordial Spirit turned into a faint glimmer, traveling ten thousand miles in an instant, directly traversing the Void Realm and fleeing in the direction of the Seven Star Palace.

Ji Taichang immediately formed hand seals, summoning the yang yao disk. Dense runes howled out like a hurricane, attempting to seal the Void Realm and detain her Primordial Spirit.

But the speed at which Yu Jiajia's Primordial Spirit erupted was too astonishing, almost exceeding the limits of the Void Refinement Stage; the power of the yang yao disk could not catch up, and she disappeared in the blink of an eye!

Ji Taichang narrowed his eyes slightly.

"It seems I still underestimated the experts of the Void Refinement Stage a little."

Ji Taichang whispered to himself.

"After this woman escapes, the Seven Star Palace will definitely dispatch stronger Cultivators to cause trouble for Revered Master."

Yun Qiyao reminded, "Revered Master has the Souls and Primordial Spirits of the Seven Star Palace Cultivators in your hands. The Seven Star Palace has special means to locate them. It would be best for Revered Master to kill them all to prevent future trouble."

"Although your Revered Master will back you up, provoking too many enemies is not a wise choice..."

Ji Taichang suddenly asked, "Do you know where there is a stronghold of the Black Thorn Cult?"

Yun Qiyao's eyes widened slightly, and she instantly guessed Ji Taichang's thoughts!

She immediately used spiritual power to construct a map of the Eastern Desolate Region, marking several strongholds of the Black Thorn Cult.

Ji Taichang then moved his mind, burning a portion of his essence blood and Primordial Spirit to condense a new Shadow Clone!

The Shadow Clone transformed into the appearance of the "Blood Lotus Demonic Lord," grabbed the Souls and Primordial Spirits of Zhao Wanning and the others, and rushed toward the nearest stronghold!

Several hours later.

Ji Taichang arrived at a very vast and prosperous ancient city.

The ancient city was surrounded by many villages and towns, with numerous small Sect forces distributed around it. Ordinary people would never imagine that this ancient city was actually built by the Black Thorn Cult and was a secret stronghold of the Black Thorn Cult!

Ji Taichang brought the Souls and Primordial Spirits of Zhao Wanning and the others into the ancient city and waited quietly.

Sure enough.

Two and a half hours later, a chilling and terrifying Killing Intent descended from the sky, instantly locking onto his position!

Boom!!

A black ancient sword tore through the firmament, the Big Dipper constellation engraved on the blade shining with brilliant light, drawing upon the power of heaven and earth for reinforcement. It was sharp and full of Killing Intent, with terrifying Killing Intent firmly locking onto Ji Taichang, and it slashed down with a boom!

This energy was too powerful, far exceeding that of Yu Jiajia by who knows how many times, almost touching the level of the Body Integration Stage!

Hum—

Just as Ji Taichang was preparing to crush the Souls and Primordial Spirits of Zhao Wanning and the others.

Beneath the ancient city, patches of blood-black Formation patterns suddenly lit up. Dense symbols appeared out of thin air, intertwining with each other to form a powerful defensive Formation, protecting the ancient city.

Immediately afterward, an earth-shattering roar rang out.

The black ancient sword slashed against the defensive Formation, causing the entire ancient city to shake. The vast earth trembled violently, cracks appeared, and dust filled the sky!

"Vice Palace Revered Master of the Seven Star Palace, Xiao Wuya!"

"You have such audacity, daring to attack my Black Thorn Cult stronghold! Does your Seven Star Palace wish to become enemies with my Black Thorn Cult?"

Black shadows rushed out from beneath the ancient city, looking up at the man in black who appeared in mid-air, all of them showing expressions of anger.

"It worked!"

Ji Taichang felt a surge of joy in his heart. Seeing the Black Thorn Cult and the Seven Star Palace start to fight like dogs, a sinister smile appeared on his face.

"My good disciple, you are laughing quite happily!!"

Just at this moment, a voice grinding its teeth rang out, word by word!

An invisible and terrifying Soul power swept over, causing Ji Taichang's consciousness to become somewhat blurred, and layers of illusions began to appear before his eyes.

Fortunately, Ji Taichang's cultivation had increased to the fifth level of the Soul Transformation Stage, and his Primordial Spirit power had further increased. In a flash, he activated the Ziwei Imperial Spirit Body, brilliant golden light lit up around his body, and he instantly broke free from the illusion.

A pair of smooth, fair, long legs appeared before Ji Taichang, straight and slender, with red strings and bells tied to the white, tender feet; every step she took emitted a crisp sound.

Moving up, there was a snake-like waist that could be held in one hand, seven snowy-white fox tails swaying gently, an exaggeratedly curved bosom, and a bewitching, charming face.

It was just that the other party's smile was very cold, carrying a sense of surprise and teeth-grinding annoyance!

She was none other than the Thousand-Faced Enchantress!!

Although Ji Taichang's Shadow Clone had changed his appearance and aura, the Thousand-Faced Enchantress was most skilled in the Dao of the Soul. At such a close distance, she was still able to detect Ji Taichang's true identity!!

"Why is this stinky woman here?"

Ji Taichang's eyelids twitched. He hadn't expected to encounter the enchantress of the Black Thorn Cult at this very stronghold!
