It was clear that the Yin Shadow had truly been startled at the sight of the Netherworld Karma Fire, a Companion Heavenly Fire.
This surprise allowed Yang Zhen to completely relax. It seemed that the rumors about the Netherworld Karma Fire being able to restrain these sinister entities were true.
Seeing the Yin Shadowâs face turning pale with shock, Yang Zhen chuckled strangely and threw the Karmic Fire onto himself.
Boom!
The moment the Netherworld Karma Fire came into contact with him, Yang Zhenâs demeanor instantly transformed. He looked like a warlord straight out of hell, exuding a deep aura of gloom and dread, vast and profound.
Gloominess is different from malice; the distinction lies in the malice.
The Netherworld Karma Fire was rumored to have somehow come from the Nine Nether Purgatory to the mortal world. It was a flame specifically meant to incinerate evil beings. In the face of these flames, the evil-doings of the Moluo Sect appeared as timid as a mouse in front of a catâterrifying enough to break their courage!
Roarââ!
The Yin Shadow abruptly let out a roar, akin to that of a ferocious beast, and abruptly erupted into a terrifying black wave of energy. Countless black worms charged towards Yang Zhen.
Yang Zhen clicked his tongue in wonder. This old fellow was completely in a daze. Nothing scared him more than this kind of all-encompassing assault, much less a swarm of worms.
Buzzââ!
Yang Zhenâs hands shook as he rushed towards the overwhelming swarm of worms. Suddenly from his back sprouted a pair of giant wings. A massive wave of fire surged out in an instant, bursting out with a defiant flamboyance.
âNo good!â The Yang shadow shrieked from one side, watching in disbelief as Yang Zhen unleashed a terrifying energy wave. His face turned extraordinarily ugly.
Yang Zhen burst into laughter and winked at the Yang Shadow, âKarmic Fire Wings, tell me if youâre scared?â
âKid, youâre seeking death!â The Yang Shadow roared hysterically, his eyes filled with a look of apprehension.
Yang Zhen curled his lip dismissively, âYou should worry about yourself. Donât kill people indiscriminately. Itâs a bad thing to kill too many. Youâll end up in hell!â
A hearty laughter resounded, âOld hag, your opponent is me. This old witch has killed hundreds of innocent souls. Such scum, if they donât end up in hell, who will?â
A thunderous explosion rang out, and the terrifying black light in the Death Shadowâs hand erupted. Yang Shadow grunted, stumbling backward.
Death shadow was not about to let go of such a perfect opportunity to kick an opponent when they were down. He quickly rushed forward, âCome on old hag, try killing me!â
Gong Sanhe, to the side, was also roaring endlessly. While his momentum was not as terrifying as the Yin and Yang Shadows, it didnât lag behind. In the horrifying wave of energy, the entire hall was trembling, violently shaking.
The Yin shadow was incessantly roaring in anger. With Yang Zhenâs charge, the endless black worms suffered significant casualties.
A series of terrifying shrieks echoed, and a pungent stench filled the air, causing Yang Zhen to curse, âDamn, where did all these bugs on you come from? They stink to high heaven, you know?â
Boom!
Yang Shadow crashed heavily into the gigantic coffin. He struggled to stand up, but a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his life was instantly extinguished.
Death Shadow nearby was left stupefied, âBloody hell, did this old witch just commit suicide?â
Yang Zhen glanced over and his eyes widened in shock. He addressed the Yin Shadow, âYour partner is freaking gone, yet youâre still here burning bugs. Damn, it stinks, you know? Why donât you smell it yourself?â
The Yin shadow roared repeatedly and transformed into a figure with a boom. He broke through Yang Zhenâs defense and rushed towards the Yang Shadow. He turned his head and roared at Yang Zhen, âThis isnât my smell!â
Boomââ!
Energy waves erupted from the Yin shadow, and he burst into laughter, revealing a vicious side, âYou should have given me your cultivation long ago. Now, everyone here is going to die, everyone!â
With these words, under everyoneâs gaze, Yin Shadow abruptly landed a blow on Yang Shadowâs head.
âNo good, thatâs the Cultivation Method! Donât let him absorb the True Essence in Yang Shadowâs body!â Death shadowâs face changed as he yelled to Yang Zhen and Gong Sanhe, âOnce he absorbs it, he will surely break through the Divine Transformation Stage!â
âWhat the hell?â
Yang Zhen was stunned. Who would have thought that one could break through the Divine Transformation Stage like that? He immediately cursed and glanced at Death Shadow before charging towards Yin and Yang Shadows with a boom.
Gong Sanheâs face turned pale with fear. If the Yin Shadow managed to break through to the Divine Transformation Stage as he claimed, everyone here was doomed. No one would escape!
Damn it, what was happening?
After Yang Zhen dashed out, both Death Shadow and Gong Sanhe swiftly followed behind him, one after another.
However, before the three even reached the Yin Shadow, their faces all changed and they abruptly stopped short.
Originally, the Yang Shadow had just died not long ago, and by that time, her True Essence was still circulating within her body. Considering their relationship, Yang Shadowâs Spirit Soul would not prevent Yin Shadow from absorbing her True Essence. After all, this was the only way for Yin Shadow to avenge her.
But now, Yang Shadowâs death seemed like a bizarre incident, and Yang Zhen never noticed her Spirit Soul emerging from her body from the start.
Just as the trio rushed towards Yin Shadow, something strange occurred!
After absorbing Yang Shadowâs True Essence, the now swelling and saturated Yin Shadow suddenly cried out in agony and shivered before their eyes, quickly returning the scarcely absorbed True Essence back to Yang Shadow.
Yang Zhen and others exchanged stunned glances, greatly startled.
Could it be that the bastard Yang Shadow had staged her suicide to deceive Yin Shadow, and then backstab him, absorbing his True Essence?
Thisâ¦this was terrible!
At that moment, an event that horrified the trio occurred. That dreadful True Essence made a round in Yang Shadowâs body and then suddenly poured into the coffin!
âHoly crap!â
Yang Zhenâs eyes nearly bulged out. He gazed at Gong Sanhe and questioned, âWhat does this mean? Did a coffin just absorb True Essence?â
With a face drained of blood, Gong Sanhe shivered at the words and hastily replied, âNoâ¦not the coffin. Itâs something insideâ¦itâ¦itâs alive!â
âDamn, what do you mean itâs alive? Is it coming out?â Yang Zhen could feel his hair standing on end, his scalp tingling with fear!
Death Shadow widened her eyes, her face filled with excitement as she asked, âIs that pure aura going to come out too?â
This fool. Still thinking about pure aura at such a time.
Could someone who could kill both Yin and Yang Shadows instantly and through a huge coffin, effortlessly hand over the pure aura?
They should be happy if they were not drained dry!
âRun, run quickly!â Gong Sanhe suddenly screamed and shot backwards.
The color drained from Yang Zhenâs face. He followed Gong Sanhe and ran away.
Seeing this, Death Shadow, who had noticed the anomaly, quickly scampered outwards in a flurry.
No matter what it was, anything that could instantly kill both Yin and Yang Shadows was exceptional and not to be dismissed lightly.
In the chaos, a transparent glass bead smacked into Yang Zhenâs head. The impact sent him almost tumbling headfirst, and seeing the culprit made him curse out loud.
Damn it, who the devil was throwing stuff around at this moment?
But that bead was crystal clear and clearly extraordinary. Yang Zhen hurriedly stumbled back and tucked the bead into his pocket. Just as he was about to run again, a loud boom made his head spin as if the world had exploded.
A deafening roar echoed, followed by a Divine Transformation Stage-like aura sweeping all around. The whole Heavenly Machine hall was instantly reduced to countless fragments.
The roar shook the heavens and swirling auras surging far beyond the Divine Transformation Stage flooded in. Yang Zhen turned his head and saw a terrifying sight that made him break into a frantic run.
That monstrous creature, unrecognizable in appearance, was thunderously chasing after him
âHelp! Brother, donât kill meâ¦â
Yang Zhen swore he had never run faster in his life.
