Beside the 30-foot black hole, Chi Hongyi’s brows were furrowed tightly, his eyes filled with surprise and confusion.
The space in front of him was dug out, forming an independent world. Chi Hongyi was able to see and sense it but he was unable to touch it.
Who knew what kind of treasure it was which actually had such a strong ability…
At this moment, the other four Saint Realm Venerables beside him had similar expressions.
Zizai God Demons had no form and no body, but they could use spiritual sense to influence others and show their emotions.
Chi Hongyi could sense that the two of them had similar moods to him, feeling both annoyed and helpless.
Prey that had fallen into their net suddenly flew away. Anyone would feel annoyed by it.
Who knew how furious Wushang Yuan Demon, who was tens of thousands of miles away, would be?
Su Xiaoxiao, that b*tch, really deserved to die!
He hated this Demon Path Saint Girl so bad and didn’t pity her at all.
If she hadn’t killed herself, he would have definitely made her suffer even more!
After scoffing, Chi Hongyi shook his head, retracting the powers that were striking towards the darkness.
“It seems like it is really an independent world! It is split off from this region and normal techniques won’t work on it! Probably, even if an End Realm attacks, he might not be able to break this world barrier.”
“Then, what should we do?”
Yinhan’s face sunk down and was extremely ugly.
Zong Shou was a person who would take revenge. The animosity this time was just too deep. Once he escaped, Great Gan might even start war once more.
Great Shang was falling and Great Gan had replaced it to become the overlord of the Cloud World.
If Zong Shou demanded answers, nothing much would happen to Great Shang. However, as the Crown Prince, he would receive the blame. Especially his brothers wouldn’t let him get off easy.
“Naturally, we will continue!”
Demon Lotus said while looking at the group of people. Her voice became even more firm and wasn’t to be doubted. Her eyes were ice cold.
“I don’t believe that this End Treasure can last forever. His strength will definitely run out!”
“That makes sense. However, we musn’t forget that Lin Xuanxuan is nearby. If she rushes over can we block her?”
The person who spoke was the old man beside Liao King. He questioned without any politeness, “Also, Zong Shou is really strong. Without Yuan Demon Saint Venerable helping, whether we can stop him or fight him is also a question!”
Demon Lotus was stunned and then took in a deep breath, “Zong Shou was injured by Old Yun’s Ten Thousand Blade Sweeping Clouds Technique. It is a Grade Ten Metal Element ability! With Old Yun’s skills, he wouldn’t be able to recover in such a short time!”
The Saint Realm Venerable called Old Yun touched his beard and laughed. He didn’t reply to Demon Lotus’s words, neither agreeing nor rebutting.
Demon Lotus’s voice continued, “Yuan Demon told me that the Unlimited Beginning and End Dharma Body can only last for half a day. The limit has been reached. Apart from that, there is also Yuan Demon. Even with what Su Xiaoxiao did, with the remnant spiritual senses that Yuan Demon injected in, it will be enough to suppress his soul! This person is not a problem! The only thing is if he escapes or if Li Xuanxuan comes to help. We won’t be able to stop…”
Everyone nodded. Chi Hongyi nodded too. What Demon Lotus spoke about was what he was worried about.
“Since we can’t, then let’s find someone to work together with!”
Demon Lotus laughed coldly. Her voice became more cold, “Taoist and Confucian Factions are glad to see it happen! With our Demon Path at the helm, we will definitely kill this Blood Sword Monster Lord in this tomb!”
Chi Hongyi’s brow rose up in shock, “Taoist and Confucian Factions? They are willing?”
Demon Path was the first to back out of the battle between the six factions. One side didn’t assist and one side went against their word. The grievances between each other were really huge.
Along with the hatred from before, he really didn’t see how either side would be willing to work with them.
Moreover, now there were still two more Zizai God Demons present.
At this moment, a talisman suddenly flew over and landed in Demon Lotus’s hands. Her eyes flashed and her lips rose up, filled with both pride and mocking intent.
“Why would they be unwilling? The few from Taoist Faction have agreed and will arrive soon! Within the Cloud World, as long as one is from the Yuqing and Shangqing Factions of the Taoist Faction, they all hate Zong Shou to the bone. Why would they miss out on such a good chance?”
She also said, “However, the Confucians are the most stubborn and tough to persuade. Crown Prince, you probably need to spend some effort on that!”
Yinhan’s brow rose up. He hesitated for a while before nodding his head, “I will try my best! If we can really gather the power of three factions I am willing to take a gamble on this…”
Demon Lotus smiled. Yinhan was the crown prince of Great Shang, the orthodox dynasty of the mid plains. Only this person’s words could influence the Confucian Faction.
She looked towards the black hole, not bothering about what Yinhan said.
This wasn’t a gamble but something they had to succeed in!
Chi Hongyi’s expression relaxed. He looked towards Demon Lotus with interest.
This girl was very different from her careful self before. She was now really decisive and went all out.
What an interesting girl… Was this because she knew that if Zong Shou escaped that she would definitely die?
However, if they really gathered dozens of Saint Realm experts, then it would be like a huge net over the area.

Within the Shanhe Hall, Xufu sat on the mattress, like he was sealed in ice, not moving at all.
However, spiritual energy swept all around and wind bellowed. Many black giant dragons appeared in the wind and then scattered.
More and more dragon energy was being gathered here.
The entire Dragon Formation spread out and was absorbing all the spiritual energy.
10,000 years ago, although the Qin Emperor died, there was a bit of true spirit that wasn’t destroyed and it became the core of this formation.
It was the same as him cultivating in this Dragon Formation for 10,000 years.
This was why before he died he was just Celestial Realm but once he revived he might be End Realm.
Four of the nine revival artifacts were stolen. The other five were protected in the end but the formation foundations were damaged.
However, Xufu didn’t bother; he had his ways of fixing them which was why everything was as he expected.
Only by using spells and completing the final step would the Qin Emperor wake up. Another 100 days and the true revival would be complete.
Even if there were hundreds of Luohan monks using Beginning and End Buddhist Power, they wouldn’t be able to suppress him.
However, Xufu’s heart wasn’t totally calm.
What he cared about most was below, within the underground palace. More and more experts gathered there. Dozens of them were all at one spot.
Who knew what it was that attracted them over?
Speaking of which, this underground palace was the only place he didn’t have a full understanding of.
Those corpse generals had never allowed him to enter before.
Moreover, Li Xin was really uneasy. Looking at his expression, it wasn’t because of the four artifacts. He was worried about the experts below.
Unfortunately, he was in charge of the formation and couldn’t be distracted.
Apart from that would be the star phenomenon…
This was why although his face was expressionless, he felt a bit uneasy.
“Master, things aren’t right! There are things changing. Look at the stars. A while ago, it was the Dragon Swallowing Situation, overlord appears in the world. Now, it is changing…”
Zhongxuan’s voice rose up. He was standing outside and he looked up at the sky. Blood flowed from the corner of his lips and his face was really white.
“In 15 minutes, there will be a blood calamity here! We will be wrapped up in it!”
“Blood Calamity?”
Xufu was stunned. Although he couldn’t move his body, he could use his spiritual sense to observe the sky.
Since he could teach Zhongxuan, then naturally, he himself was a skilled divinator.
At this moment, he observed and knew that what Zhongxuan said was true.
Apart from those few stars, the sky was covered in thick blood energy.
Weird! The fate was spinning in the world and who knew how many divinators had messed up the secrets of the Heavens.
Why was it so obvious this time?
His brow rose up and he understood.
It was too sharp! All techniques were avoided and all evil was hidden away!
At this moment, there was really going to be a blood calamity. It really is a Dragon Swallowing situation and an overlord will appear!
“Since there is still time, then why panic?”
Xufu shook his head. His expression was still really calm. His hands formed a seal that looked like the shape of a dragon’s head.
The 12 black dragons circling the sky all charged towards the Qin Emperor corpse which was on the Avici Throne.
This was the final step! The dragon energy was entering the body and he would wake up. This was also what he wanted to see.
However, a moment later, his eyes were filled with shock.
The Qin Emperor’s body still sat on the throne and didn’t react.
The spiritual energy and dragon energy was led to the ground.
Li Xin’s face changed, and with a flash, he disappeared from the spot.
Xufu sat on the mattress and looked forwards. Moments later, he understood. He wasn’t angry but laughed instead, filled with mocking intent.
“So, that is the case. So, that is the case! You didn’t trust me. This is the will of the Heavens, the will of the Heavens! The Heavens don’t want you to revive! Yingzheng, you were wise for a life, but in the end, did it even matter? You were too smart but that cost you your life…”
As he said this, he suddenly had an idea. He felt that most of the dragon energy was heading below.
However, there was some flowing backward.
“Eh?”
Looking behind, he saw Yinyu. At this moment, he was absorbing threads of black dragon energy.
Even the energy from the Qin Emperor’s corpse on the throne was being sucked over.
“Dragon Emperor is going against the vein and stealing the dragon!”
