Chapter 1373: Start the Second Round! (2/2)

After rushing to her side, Ji Yuanquan said, without being bothered by the fact that Dong Li and Nie Tian were also there, “Qiqi, Jiang Yuanchi must have secret connections with Xuan Guangyu of our sect. The Heaven-wrapping Seal Jiang Yuanchi used was a wondrous tool that allowed him to seal an area of starry river completely. However, it isn’t an Immortal grade divine tool, as it can only be used three times before it loses its effect. Only God domain members of our sect who’re well-versed in spatial power know how to forge something like it.

“I’ve never forged one. The sectmaster doesn’t have any connection with Jiang Yuanchi. Only Xuan Guangyu could have helped him forge a tool like that.

“Normally speaking, this type of tool is used to imprison those of our disciples who have betrayed our sect.

“It’s against our rules to give such powerful consumable tools to people who aren’t members of our sect, lest they use them against us.

“The fact that Jiang Yuanchi had that Heaven-wrapping Seal proves that he broke our rules!”

With every word Ji Yuanquan, who had nearly been killed because of the Heaven-wrapping Seal, said, his anger towards Vice Sectmaster Xuan Guangyu grew stronger.

Ji Yuanquan let out a cold harrumph. “The Magic Gold Mirror is being controlled by the vice sectmaster. I bet he doesn’t dare to focus it on us now. Now that we’ve defeated the Heaven-wrapping Seal, even if Gupi gets here, we’ll be able to leave safely.

“I can’t wait to hear what the vice sectmaster will have to say after we return to our headquarters!”

“You’re not going anywhere,” The two Jiang Yuanchis said simultaneously. Even their tones were identical.

The bright Jiang Yuanchi, who had been keeping a close watch on Wu Yi from the Heavenly Corpse Sect, seemed to whisper something to him in a soul voice that the others couldn’t perceive.

Wu Yi first went blank, but a moment later, he nodded vigorously and said in elation, “Great! No problem! I’ll help you take care of them!”

No one knew what agreement the two of them had reached. However, Wu Yi, who had been eager to leave just now, suddenly turned around to face Nie Tian and those beside him.

“Leave Ji Yuanquan to me.” With a soft exclamation, he summoned numerous ghouls with various appearances, which then swarmed towards Nie Tian and the others in a formidable array.

Nie Tian and the girls were their target.

To everyone’s surprise, Wu Yi himself expanded like a Bonebrute, with cracking sounds coming from every single bone inside of him. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a monster covered in white fur that looked like a gigantic white ape.

After the expansion, he was wreathed in an even stronger corpse aura, his fingernails like sharp bone swords that exuded frosty auras.

FZZZ!

He made a clawing motion with his monstrous hand, and the area of starry river where Ji Yuanquan was cracked like a torn rag.

Astonished, Ji Yuanquan exclaimed, “Wu Yi! Where did you get this ghoul that you contain your soul with?”

The giant ape-like ghoul gave him a strong sense of danger. Even his hair stood on end.

This feeling hadn’t been very strong up until the ghoul revealed its true form.

“I have no time for chitchat,” Wu Yi said with a nasty smile.

“Gupi is coming!” Pei Qiqi exclaimed.

“Shadow...” With a whoosh, the shadowy Jiang Yuanchi vanished into Gupi, which was approaching with an unstoppable momentum.

Meanwhile, the bright Jiang Yuanchi took his time to weave his hands to form and release magical seals that looked like spheres that emanated dazzlingly bright divine light.

All of a sudden, a vague soul message came through from the black tortoise.

With a confused expression, Nie Tian looked into the utter darkness that had blocked the black tortoise from sight, and asked, “You want me to use the method I used on the floating continent?”

The black tortoise immediately gave him an affirmative response.

The ‘method’ it was referring to was his bloodline talent: Life Blend.

Back when they had been caught in a difficult position on the floating continent, it was through Life Blend that Nie Tian and the black tortoise had become one, allowing him to stimulate its terrifying bloodline talent with his Blood Essence and immense flesh power, so it could engulf everything in darkness.

“Alright!”

As soon as Nie Tian nodded, the enormous black tortoise emerged from the complete darkness.

WHOOSH!

Nie Tian flew onto the black tortoise’s vast back, where he activated Life Blend without any delay, countless wisps of his flesh aura connecting him and the black tortoise. Even their meridians seemed to be connected in a profound manner.

Drops of his Blood Essence were ignited, and started to burn violently!

As rich life power fused into the black tortoise, it actually allowed it to expand even larger.

At the same time, brand new dark magic scripts appeared on its vast shell.

“Its... its aura...” Mo Qianfan’s jaw dropped and his eyes widened as he watched the increasingly huge black tortoise releasing a dark aura that rapidly spread and devoured all light it encountered. “It seems to be about to transcend its limits as a ninth grade Ancientbeast! And it carries Nie Tian’s aura!”

Pei Qiqi, who was going to take everyone away with the help of her Space Boundaries Crystal, suddenly grew hesitant.

At this moment, the mixed aura of Nie Tian and the black tortoise and their soaring power gave her a feeling that they might actually have a chance at fighting Jiang Yuanchi.
