However, the lamia hadn’t learned the ❮Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique❯ at all, and only knew the stance. She twisted her wrists and waved the sword.
She slashed out with the blade, but this saber attack was ordinary as it could be, with its power also being very weak. The stone giant, faced with such a slash, did not even bother evading it, and remained resolute in destroying the sword.
The virtuous lamia blinked, and continued to wave Scarlet Heaven Sword a few more times. However, what was slashed out were still just ordinary saber attacks.
Scarlet Heaven Sword said furiously, “You haven’t learned the ❮Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique❯, it’s pointless to wave me around! Go back and learn the ❮Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique❯ before slashing out again!”
“Hahaha, what a great opportunity to wipe both of you out.” The stone giant laughed wildly, and his body arrived at the virtuous lamia’s side in an instant. He raised his fist as he condensed the power of the ‘Law of Earth’, and then fiercely punched at the virtuous lamia and Scarlet Heaven Sword.
Seeing this, ‘Song Shuhang’ suddenly opened his mouth, and then… swallowed Scarlet Heaven Sword.
This was her way of protecting the sword. After all, when she would protect Song Shuhang, she would wrap him up.
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Stop, this is too disgusting! Are you performing sword swallowing? Where do you think we are?!”
“Boom~”
The stone giant smashed his fist directly into the virtuous lamia.
The virtuous lamia was smashed into golden spots of light and dissipated.
“Power of virtue?” The stone giant’s heart moved as he recognized the lamia’s identity.
Could it be that this was the materialization of that human’s light of virtue?
“It’s no wonder that his luck is so heaven-defying… he was able to make his light of virtue materialize, which would require great amounts of virtue.” The stone giant came to his senses. After accumulating such great virtue, even if one were an ordinary cultivator, their luck would be very good.
He was just a little cultivator who was at the Third or Fourth Stage, so how could he possess such a huge amount of virtue? Could it be that he used a special reincarnation method, capable of retaining all the accumulated virtue after reincarnating?
While in deep thought, the stone giant looked for the traces of ‘Scarlet Heaven Sword’.
He had just seen Scarlet Heaven Sword being swallowed by the materialized light of virtue, and though ‘Song Shuhang’ had been smashed to pieces, Scarlet Heaven Sword was nowhere to be seen.
“There weren’t any fluctuations in space.” The stone giant frowned.
Then, he stretched out his hand and laid a spatial barrier around him. At the same time, along with a thought, four high walls emerged from the ground, sealing the entire space.
In this way, Scarlet Heaven Sword and the light of virtue’s chances of escaping were completely cut off.
Not long after the stone giant had finished its setup, countless golden dots of light began to condense. In the end, the golden dots of light turned into a brand-new ‘Song Shuhang’. It was just that the size of this ‘Song Shuhang’ was slightly smaller compared to before.
It still isn’t dead after being smashed to pieces? The stone giant felt slight pain in his liver.
At this time, the new ‘Song Shuhang’ reached out and opened his mouth. Then… Scarlet Heaven Sword was pulled out again.
It was exactly like a ‘sword swallowing’ performance.
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Disgusting~ This is so disgusting! Can you let me go now? My mission is over, and I want to leave.”
The stone giant sneered. “Leave? Do you think you can leave? Today, I’m going to turn you into scrap iron.”
Scarlet Heaven Sword also noticed that the surrounding space had been locked down, with walls all around, which directly turned this into a sealed space.
Things had truly become quite troublesome.
Scarlet Heaven Sword ranted, “This is all your fault, dumbass! Why the f*ck would you grab me? If it weren’t for you, I would have already escaped.”
In fact, it also had some doubts in its heart. It stood to reason that with its strength, it should have been easy for it to break free even if it was held by the virtuous lamia. However, when the other party’s hand grabbed it, it became unable to resist, which allowed that evil giant to smash it together with the light of virtue that grabbed it.
The virtuous lamia shook Scarlet Heaven Sword around and slashed.
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Stop swinging me around! You don’t know the ❮Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique❯, and nothing is going to happen even if you try slashing out another time. If you really want to try out the ❮Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique❯, then pull out the guy who can actually use the saber technique. As long as he cooperates with me, he should be able to unleash a decent ❮Flaming Saber Technique❯. Although it is unlikely to be able to kill this stone giant, it shouldn’t be a problem to repel it.”
The virtuous lamia tilted her head and seemed to be a little annoyed.
Then, her aura changed.
She no longer maintained the appearance of Song Shuhang; her figure began to stretch, and her body directly transformed. At the same time, a regal aura emerged from her.
Scarlet Heaven Sword froze for a while. It wasn’t able to adapt to the sudden, huge transformation of the virtuous lamia.
The virtuous lamia held the hilt with her hands and raised the sword high above her head.
The golden light of virtue in her body exploded out.
“Blinding!” Scarlet Heaven Sword yelled as the golden light of virtue dyed it gold. This caused it to feel some heat, so it couldn’t help but scream.
Watching the virtuous lamia holding up Scarlet Heaven Sword, the stone giant on the opposite side did not launch an attack. He just stared at the virtuous lamia; he felt that he had seen this ‘virtuous lamia’ somewhere before.
The virtuous lamia stood straight, and the golden light on Scarlet Heaven Sword became even brighter. The golden light shone, and then, like a rising flame, condensed into a beam of light.
The aura on her body became stronger and stronger, just as if a ruler had come.
In the next moment, she took two steps forward while holding Scarlet Heaven Sword with both of her hands, and then slashed violently.
“Boom~”
Saber intent exploded, and a golden blade made of light moved like a tide towards the stone giant.
At this moment, the stone giant seemed to be locked in position and unable to move. The golden blade of light exploded on him, extremely dazzling.
The aura and the saber intent contained within this strike weren’t any inferior to the ❮Heaven Burning Flaming Saber Technique❯.
The golden light filled the entire enclosed space.
Unfortunately, the realm of the virtuous lamia was too low… The power of her slash only had power around the Fourth or Fifth Stage Realm.
The golden light dissipated, and the stone giant patted his body, which hadn’t received any damage. He only felt as if he had been hit by a large flashbang grenade.
Scarlet Heaven Sword: “…”
“Although I forgot where I saw you, it doesn’t matter,” the stone giant said. “I’ll just wait until I seal you, and then take some time to study you.”
After saying that, the stone giant put his hands together, and the space of the secret room began to shrink. He was going to directly seal Scarlet Heaven Sword and the virtuous lamia.
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Hey, we’re going to be done for if this continues! Is there any way we can escape?”
Inside the Inner World, Song Shuhang issued a withdrawal order to the virtuous lamia and asked her to return to Inner World with Scarlet Heaven Sword.
The virtuous lamia swung around Scarlet Heaven Sword and seemed to be very dissatisfied.
However, she still obediently followed Song Shuhang’s orders. Her figure slowly receded, and her entire body was then integrated into ‘space’.
The stone giant suddenly laughed, and said, “I was waiting for this moment!”
On several occasions, that human kid, as well the girls from before, had suddenly disappeared. It felt like they were teleported away while not being affected by the ‘spatial interference’.
He started wondering if the other party’s ‘space technique’ utilized a special channel. Therefore, he had been waiting for an opportunity to capture the coordinates and directly go in the moment the other party opened up the special space channel.
“You can’t escape.” The stone giant sneered. His body flickered, and he appeared directly in front of the virtuous lamia. At the same time, he used a space technique to expand this special space channel.
However, the stone giant’s spatial power couldn’t affect the connection between the Inner World and the main world.
The Inner World, which was made by the third Wielder of the Will, Striped Dragon, was strange and unpredictable, and even the Heavenly Tribulation Realm couldn’t completely block it.
Without Song Shuhang’s permission, the stone giant wouldn’t be able to forcefully enter the Inner World.
“How could this be!” The stone giant was in disbelief.
Right at that moment, another space fluctuation came from behind the stone giant.
Then, an evil aura emerged and covered the earth. That evil energy caused the stone giant’s body to tremble involuntarily.
A sweet voice sounded. “Oh, I found you. You were actually able to escape while I was experimenting on something. I really can’t underestimate the Immortals of the main world.”
The stone giant turned his head and saw that a woman with long black hair had appeared within the enclosed space that he had created. This woman had thick hair that was like a cloak.
“Impossible!” the stone giant screamed, and as soon as his body moved, he opened a spatial gate to escape.
But, right at that moment, the woman with long black hair took a step forward and stretched out her hand, waving it. Then, as if she was using an eraser to erase a ‘drawing’ that she was dissatisfied with, the spatial gate opened by the stone giant was deleted.
Subsequently, the black-haired lady grabbed the stone giant’s foot and slammed him on the ground.
“Boom~”
The earth and the sky shook.
“Aaaah~” the stone giant screamed. Large amounts of evil energy poured into his body from the body of the black-haired lady, sealing him thoroughly, and causing him to lose his power. He lay on the ground like a mortal, unable to move.
Afterward, the black-haired lady turned to look at the sky again.
There, an eye floated in the air—it was a part of the body of the virtuous lamia. After being smashed into pieces by the stone giant before, a part of her body had stayed behind.
This part of her body turned into an eye and continued to keep an eye on the world outside.
Inside the Inner World.
Song Shuhang’s eyes widened. “Senior Skylark!”
This lady with long black hair was an admin of the Nine Provinces Number One Group, Xuan Nu Sect’s Skylark. She was an existence that had traversed the path of seeking death even more than Thrice Reckless.
However, the strength of the current Xuan Nu Sect’s Skylark was simply too shocking. She might have already transcended the demonic tribulation of the Eighth Stage, but thrashing the stone giant with an attack was definitely not something that someone at the Eighth Stage was capable of doing.
Her combat power was completely off the charts!
“Hehe.” Xuan Nu Sect’s Skylark looked at the golden eye, smiled, and stretched out her hand, ready to destroy the eye.
Seeing the light of virtue, she looked disgusted.
However, when she raised her hand, her face suddenly changed.
She then held her head, squatted down in pain, and wept.
I’m afraid the most of the surroundings turning silent and of you suddenly crying~
