Chapter 1905 - 620: Netherworld Phoenix
Si Huangquan raised her head, her gaze filled with a hint of delight as she looked towards the Void.
Jingwei was her mother Tian Nai Luo’s most capable ally. Legend had it that the two were as close as sisters, supporting each other, holding a position in the Yin Dynasty akin to a ’Vice Lord.’
This was her greatest reliance, and the formidable aid she had eagerly anticipated.
Even amidst the relentless pursuit from the All Gods of Water God Tiangong and the Phoenix Feather Clan, Jingwei still spared a bit of strength to support and care for her.
The Divine Artifact in the hands of Si Wufa and Si Wutian was brought to them by Jingwei.
Also, the secret medicine for her and Si Wufa’s promotion to Second Grade and First Grade was procured with Jingwei’s assistance.
Today, Jingwei had indeed arrived as she hoped. Though she did not reveal herself directly, she was already hidden nearby, ready to assist at any moment.
Si Huangquan’s attention then shifted to her surroundings.
With the arrival of this Crystal Core, the already cold and oppressive atmosphere in the hall became even more chilling as hell. The bone-chilling Kill Intent clashed, fought, and permeated within the hall, tensions running high!
Those who bowed outside the Stone Palace, the myriad of Hundred Demons on the staircase of the palace platform, all felt a heavy pressure in their soul bodies.
They had to retract their Spiritual Sense, avoiding to sense or peek at the scene inside the hall.
Some of the weaker cultivations even felt their soul cores had a tendency to crack.
Most of their thoughts were filled with gratitude, along with strong fright and worry.
The gratitude was because, after they had paid respects to Si Huangquan, they were ordered by her to wait on the palace platform outside.
This was undoubtedly a life-saving measure, allowing them an easier escape from the battlefield.
Simultaneously, these Hundred Demons were also worried about Si Huangquan’s safety.
Some coveted the power left behind by Tian Nai Luo and chose betrayal; yet most still felt grateful for Tian Nai Luo’s benevolence, yearning for the days of her rule over the Yin Dynasty.
They foresaw that should Si Huangquan fall here, the Yin Dynasty, which had sheltered them for tens of thousands of years, would never return.
"Seems the east wind has arrived today."
The Youdu Sovereign watched as Si Huangquan absorbed this fifty-fifth Yin Queen Crystal Core, a smile of satisfaction appearing on his face.
He gazed at the radiant, magnificent Yin Vein Wings behind Si Huangquan, his eyes filled with emotion and expectation: "Just a mere three-quarters of residual strength is already so powerful. It makes one wonder what divine prowess your mother Tian Nai Luo wielded at her peak—truly worthy of my twenty years of waiting."
He then also took out four black-green Crystal Cores from his sleeve and tossed them towards Si Huangquan: "Then, take what I have as well."
Si Wufa glanced at those Crystal Cores, his expression slightly changing: "Huangquan, don’t!"
The Youdu Sovereign showed no attempt to conceal at all.
Those Crystal Cores clearly contained exceedingly potent toxins.
"It’s indeed unbelievable that Tian Nai Luo could achieve the Death Saint with merely a Yin Soul body."
The Black Water Sovereign also issued a voice of admiration.
He raised his hand simultaneously, releasing four red-green Crystal Cores towards Si Huangquan.
Just at that moment, several Crystal Cores also entered the void one after another from outside. A total of seventeen Yin Queen Crystal Cores flew to Si Huangquan’s side, rapidly rotating left and right outside her body.
Si Huangquan’s face turned cold, isolating all of these Crystal Cores outside her body.
While isolating them, she also peeled away the green Fluorescence from within those Crystal Cores.
Si Huangquan could discern her mother’s power amidst the Divine Poison mixed inside, allowing her to absorb and refine while isolating the toxins outside her body.
"So easy to take the benefit and not the harm? How could it be so simple?"
The Youdu Sovereign sneered, while covertly glancing with dread at Chu Xisheng, standing on the platform staring fiercely.
The fierce and disdainful gaze of that young man sent a shiver through the Youdu Sovereign’s heart.
He hesitated slightly but turned his gaze back towards the few people inside the hall: "Could it be that you all want to sit by and watch? Waiting for her to completely refine the Yin Vein and acquire the power of the Yin Queen Tian Nai Luo?"
"Indeed! Following the decree of the Ancestor Gods, the Divine Contract we set demands that we eliminate the threat first, before vying for the Yin Vein Wings and Divine Artifact." The Black Water Sovereign said half-closing his eyes.
Though he spoke this way, his body didn’t move a muscle.
The Black Water Sovereign was even more wary of Chu Xisheng.
He had already experienced Chu Xisheng’s Divine Intent Saber and his awe-inspiring edge.
The Black Water Sovereign couldn’t help but worry that he would be the first target.
The Southern Pole Star Lord merely smiled quietly, like a kind elder watching a play without speaking.
Ghost Star was even more indifferent.
In the presence of these three Upper Eternals within the hall, he was merely a junior.
In any event, he wasn’t one to take the lead.
This individual on the Imperial Platform is the being who injured his Lord, the Vermilion Bird Star Lord, with one saber.
His combat strength was greatly conserved, far from the simplicity shown before everyone’s eyes.
Ghost Star had resolved that he would rather retreat empty-handed today than risk it.
"Timidly hesitating, fearing the consequences, you two are truly cowardly rats! No wonder you could live over ten million years in the Nine Nether Sea without mastering the Power of Death; such a lifespan has simply gone to waste."
This person’s voice was like wolves snarling, dreadful and wild, a word louder as if blasted by thunder, fierce and compelling, shaking the heart, as if it came from the depths of Hell.
At the moment the voice fell, a giant black demonic hand suddenly reached in from outside the door, fiercely grabbing at the space above the Imperial Platform.
The forefront of the black demonic hand not only gathered endless Destruction force! It also shrank this side of heaven and earth within the hall, compressing it under his grasp!
