It could be said that in the end, even without Ren Zeyuan personally making a move, Lin Bai would have walked into a dead end. He would have exhausted all his strength and would only be able watch as the monsters approached. This was killing people’s mind too.
Clearly, Lin Bai also knew what Ren Zeyuan was planning. However, he was not a person who would sit idly by and wait for death. As the monster attacked again, Lin Bai reacted quickly and dodged it. At the same time, he slashed out a sword aura.
Both sides’ attacks missed, and the monster once again hid in the darkness. Lin Bai became even more vigilant. The surrounding walls and the ground were all covered in the monster’s claw marks and Lin Bai’s sword qi.
Those sword qi looked messy, but in fact, they were crisscrossed, as if they contained some kind of rhythm.
“As a punishment for disturbing the lord’s descent, you will receive the harshest punishment in the world. You will sink into the darkness and die in pain. Even your soul will not be able to rest in peace, and you will cycle through the pain before your death forever.”
As soon as he finished speaking, countless white lights rose from the ground and resonated with the sword marks on the wall. It was like a bright sun that was so piercing that one could hardly open their eyes. The great righteous energy within it turned into the purest and most innocent power, coupled with the sharp sword qi, it was simply the biggest nemesis of the evil.
A roar was heard, and even the ground shook. The cave that suddenly became bright made it impossible for the monster to hide. Only then did Lin Bai see its appearance clearly. It was just a creature formed by a ball of black gas. He did not know what was wrapped inside, but it was not something good.
Its huge body had shrunk a part because of the attack just now. Even so, there was still a lot of black gas continuously replenishing it. “You deserve to die!”
Although the monster did not have any facial features, he could hear Ren Zeyuan’s voice. It was extremely sharp and ear-piercing, like the wails of all kinds of resentful ghosts.
Countless tentacles grew out of its body. They were thin and long, just like the shadows of ghosts. They clawed at Lin Bai, leaving dark stains on the ground wherever they passed, giving off a rotten stench.
At this moment, Ren Zeyuan was nowhere to be seen. Lin Bai guessed that this monster was the incarnation of Ren Zeyuan. Although it was huge and looked like it was extremely inconvenient to move, its movements were extremely fast, those tentacles had a corrosive and numbing effect.
The two black-hole-like eyes stared at Lin Bai. He no longer had any intention of teasing him. He suddenly opened his bloody mouth and swallowed Lin Bai. The gloomy and cold aura was like a venomous snake hissing and spitting its tongue, making Lin Bai unable to move. It was as if he was scared silly.
Being swallowed alive, the monster let out a strange laugh. Its face, which was originally pitch-black, was now visible. It looked extremely strange.
The monster was about to walk towards the altar when it felt a burning sensation in its stomach. The environment was originally cold, but now the temperature was slowly rising. It lowered its head, there was actually a small red sun slowly rising.
Before it could react.
“Bang!”
A huge explosion sounded. In an instant, countless sparks flew in all directions. The crisp chirping of birds resounded throughout the space. Scarlet flames intertwined and formed a fiery red cloud. It seemed to be able to burn away all evil in the world.
In the middle of the Sun, a human figure walked out in a trance. He was like a god that was born from the Sun. Even his pupils were reflecting countless flames, giving off a great pressure. The magnificent and mighty phoenix was reverently prostrating beside it. Its brilliant tail feathers were like shooting stars, leaving a dazzling trail.
At this moment, Little Red had already evolved by more than half. Its body now had the true phoenix bloodline and pressure. At this moment, there was no one by their side. It finally did not need to hide its appearance and shrink its body. It revealed its true appearance in front of people.
The phoenix true flame burned fiercely. The black fog was instantly burned clean. A large area around Lin Bai was instantly cleared. Even the Ruoshui sword in his hand was affected. The jade-white body of the sword was stained with the aura of flames, and the sword aura could even stir up a few waves of heat.
These evil spirits did not like flames and brightness to begin with. In addition, the sword aura of the Ruoshui sword was pure and fierce. As the saying goes, the best is like water, and it is the purest thing in the world. It is the natural nemesis of these foul auras. When the two combine forces, countless black fog vanished into thin air wherever they passed.
“You ant!”
The monster’s voice trembled with anger. Compared to before, its body that blotted out the sky and covered the Sun had shrunk by more than half. Although the black smoke would constantly replenish and recover, the speed was much slower. It could be seen that the Ruoshui sword and the Phoenix true fire had indeed caused it a lot of trouble.
“It’s just a stinky bird that has awakened the phoenix bloodline. Do you think that you can hurt me like this? It’s ridiculous.”
The monster saw through Little Red’s true form at a glance. Its voice was filled with greed and evil. “It’s been a long time since I’ve tasted phoenix blood.”
After saying that, a black aura suddenly swept towards Little Red and transformed into a huge black snake. Its black pupils almost formed a vertical line as it stood in opposition to the flaming golden phoenix.
The cold aura approached. Not only Lin Bai but Little Red also felt a great pressure. Little Red’s pupils contracted slightly. It was obvious that it had already entered the state of preparing for battle.
The contrast between red and black was really intense. The monstrous flames were burning, but the endless black fog was rolling there. It was still unknown who would win and who would lose.
If it was in the past, the monsters would definitely not put Lin Bai and Little Red in their eyes. If it was on the ancient battlefield, Lin Bai and Little Red would not even be enough to make a meal for them. However, it was no longer the same as before. The spiritual energy of Heaven and earth was not as abundant as before and the real body had not broken through the seal yet.
For a time, both sides were in a stalemate.. They did not dare to act rashly.
