The Holy Trinity Fiendcelestial’s soul-combination mystic technique required a heavy price to be paid following its activation, and that the price was the heartwrenching pain of having its soul torn apart, just like what it was currently experiencing.
The massive nightmarish monster was now lying on the ground, rolling frantically from side to side in agony.
The pain of having one’s soul split apart was no less severe than having one’s soul destroyed. However, the pain of having one’s soul destroyed only lasted for a split second, but the pain of having one’s soul split apart was much more persistent…
“Waah… it hurts so much! I can’t take it anymore! Kill me!” The human head wailed in agony as its face twisted with pain. It grabbed onto its massive swords and plunged them toward its own chest in an attempt to commit suicide!
The two massive swords were immediately caught by a pair of dragon hands and a pair of phoenix hands respectively.
The dragon head roared, “Stupid c*nt! Don’t take us with you if you want to die!”
With a thunderous killing intent, the phoenix head glowered down at the human head. “I will give you one second to repent for your mistakes. Alright, time’s up. Your repentance was ineffective, so you can die now!”
Boom boom boom…
Four mighty fists crashed down repeatedly upon the human head, all of which were like a series of destructive bombs. The resulting shockwaves swept up gale-force winds within a radius of fifty kilometers from it.
Su Wenjun and the others stared with incredulity at the scenes unfolding before their eyes.
From their perspective, it looked like the Holy Trinity Fiendcelestial was flailing around four of its fists, which it was aiming at its own head. From the ferocity at which the blows landed, it appeared that it was intent on killing itself.
“Is it committing suicide?” Su Qianyun stared with incredulity at the scenes unfolding before her eyes. Such a bizarre spectacle made her feel like her horizons had been broadened significantly.
Liu Qianhuan muttered to herself, “Who killed me? And who did I kill?”
Her brows then furrowed. “It was me that killed me?”
Da Bai extended a paw to cooperate with Liu Qianhuan’s performance. “Correct! You may proceed!”</anno>
Soon, the human head was half-dead from being bashed. Its face was bruised and battered while drool flowed from the corner of its lips as if it had gone completely senile.
“Phew… I feel much better now!” the dragon head said.
“I feel the same way,” the phoenix head chimed in with a nod.
The two heads had endured so much aggravation and had almost died, so they had a lot of pent-up aggression. Now that they had managed to vent this frustration, they both felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from their chest.
An Lin’s face convulsed upon seeing this. This was the first time he had seen anyone beat the crap out of themselves before lying down with a satisfied smile.
Thus, the Holy Trinity Fiendcelestial continued to roll around in agony.
The pain of having their soul torn apart was still in effect, and tears welled up in the dragon head’s eyes. There were even tears of blood flowing from the phoenix head’s eyes, but neither of them was stupid enough to commit suicide.
“I feel like we’re letting this retard off the hook by beating it unconscious! Look at how peacefully it’s sleeping, then look at how much agony we’re in! It’s not fair!” the dragon head howled with grief.
“We need to share this pain! Let’s bash it until it’s awake!” A cold light flashed through the phoenix head’s eyes.
Thus, four fists the size of small mountains crashed down upon the human head yet again.
Boom boom boom…
Everyone stared at the bizarre scene of the Holy Trinity Fiendcelestial rolling around in agony while inflicting self-harm, and a twisted sense of pleasure welled up in their hearts.
“Let’s attack this monster together and take advantage of its debilitated state!” Long Kui wielded her spear as her battle intent surged.
No one heeded her call.
Fei Ying rolled her eyes at Long Kui. The monster was clearly at the height of its rage, so it would be an extremely bad idea to mess with it now. There was a chance that its debilitation could be taken advantage of, but as soon as it recovered, all those attacking it would undoubtedly suffer a ferocious counterattack.
Bai Ling didn’t say anything. All she did was look up into the sky from time to time, but no one knew what she was looking at.
“An Lin… Mr. An Lin, how is your sealing spell technique coming along?” a gentle, seductive voice asked.
An Lin had already put away his Chaotic Alloy Brick and had resumed his combination of random hand seals combined with gibberish incantations.
He shot a glance at Celestial Maiden Fei Ying, who had transmitted her voice to him, but he didn’t say anything. Instead, he continued to utter a string of gibberish, as if to say, “Don’t interrupt me when I’m preparing my sealing technique!”
Celestial Maiden Fei Ying was greatly reassured upon seeing this.
However, An Lin’s heart was racing. He had tried to contact Black Spirit Snake, only to find that he was completely unable to detect her presence! It had been so long since the first seal had been unleashed, and everyone had been to the brink of death and back several times, but there were still no further instructions from Black Spirit Snake. Even An Lin was starting to panic a little.
However, he couldn’t do anything aside from wait.
All he could do was to occasionally spout some nonsense incantations and make a few hand seals that were incomprehensible even to himself to placate everyone…
“We can’t keep waiting! We have to grab this opportunity!” Long Kui’s golden spear trembled incessantly as her aura soared. Dazzling golden light revolved around the tip of her spear.
However, right at this moment, a delicate hand appeared on Long Kui’s shoulder.
Long Kui’s expression faltered slightly before turning to look at the woman beside her.
Bai Ling consoled her with a gentle smile, “Don’t be so tense. Let’s wait for a bit first.”
“What are we waiting for? An Lin’s sealing technique?” Long Kui’s brows furrowed.
She knew that An Lin was capable of miraculous things, but his actions earlier had planted seeds of doubt within her heart.
“Wait for the sealing technique. It’s about to descend soon, so let’s not do anything that might interrupt the process,” Bai Ling said with a gentle voice, and her words seemed to be imbued with some sort of special, soothing property.
Long Kui silently withdrew her aura. Bai Ling gave her a sense of reliability; she was like a beautiful and powerful yet gentle and kind big sister.
The Holy Trinity Fiendcelestial rolled around on the ground for a while before getting to its feet with great difficulty.
An Lin could see that the monster’s legs were still trembling when it got up, indicating just how much pain it had endured.
“Phew… we finally pulled through! I thought I would f*cking die from the pain!” the dragon head said as its teeth chattered.
“The pain would be worth it if we had achieved something!”
“But take a look at this stupid c*nt! It had attained incredible power but was unable to kill or even injure a single one of our enemies! We probably look like a joke in their eyes!” the phoenix head said. Its voice grew colder and colder as it spoke, and the trembling of its hands indicated that its rage had reached a boiling point.
However, the dragon head turned its eyes upon An Lin at this moment. “That stupid c*nt may be useless, but in essence, everything is all because of that man…”
The dragon head’s teeth ground together in hatred and rage as it recalled An Lin’s terrifying sealing technique and control over lightning.
The phoenix head also turned its eyes upon An Lin. “I have to admit that that man is very powerful. It is exactly because of this that he must die!”
The two heads both turned to An Lin with killing intents raging in their eyes.
The Holy Trinity Fiendcelestial sprang into action as it spread its bony wings before flying toward An Lin like a bolt of lightning!
“Ding ding ding! The Realm Creation Evil Vanquishing Sword’s second technique, Heaven and Earth Seal, is ready! You can flex when you’re ready!” Black Spirit Snake seemed to be in a good mood as she transmitted her voice to An Lin.
A light smile appeared on An Lin’s face, and there was not even a single hint of fear in his eyes as he looked at the oncoming Holy Trinity Fiendcelestial.
He pointed one hand at the sky and another finger at the Holy Trinity Fiendcelestial. “I am the master of this world! I hereby command the power of the Great Dao to unleash the Heaven and Earth Seal!”

This was an exchange that took place in an iconic Chinese drama episode, in which a super powerful mental asylum patient managed to escape and no one could beat him, so a scholar managed to convince him through a series of questions that he had killed himself in his past life. Hence, he was compelled to do the same in this life and killed himself again.
