Chapter 286 Fighting to the Death
"The Four Fiends are spirit beasts that were born after the fall of the true gods," Yun Fuzhao said, glancing cautiously at the two people before continuing, "The Four Fiends have committed numerous evils and brought calamity to the human world. We had no choice but to come here to search for divine miracles, hoping to stop them from destroying the Five Realms."
The round-faced boy suddenly laughed, "Why do you think we'd willingly give it to you?"
The girl said, "What happens to the Five Realms is none of our business. If you don't leave, don't blame us for being ruthless."
Que Yu chuckled and tilted his head to say to Yun Fuzhao, "Look, these so-called gods aren't necessarily much more noble than our ghost race."
"..."
Yun Fuzhao guessed that the so-called power of inheritance was on the collapsed sculpture, but it was protected by a group of skeletons, and they would have to defeat these things if they wanted to get it.
“Why waste words with them?” The round-faced boy rubbed his hands together, eager to get started. “No one has been here for tens of millions of years. Now is the perfect time to use them as nourishment for a miracle.”
This statement means they aren't even given a choice.
Que Yu circulated his ghostly energy, "Since that's the case, we don't need to waste words with them. The outcome is still uncertain."
Yun Fuzhao nodded. They had to give it a shot; what if they succeeded?
Yu Ze's body continued to grow stronger, eventually transforming into a half-human, half-demon form, with a thick, jet-black tail hanging down from behind him like a stone pillar.
The skeletons that lunged at him had their bones crushed with a single claw.
Ghostly flames floated around Queyu, as if they had gained sentience, and flew towards the skeletons.
The two boys laughed dismissively upon seeing this.
Their bodies also continued to grow, eventually becoming as tall and imposing as those sculptures.
Yun Fuzhao channeled his boundless energy and thrust it towards their calves, which were as high as mountains. The sword struck a wall of bronze and iron, producing a piercing clang.
Jiaoyu and Yun Fuzhao worked together, with her attacking from below and Jiaoyu attacking from above.
The two worked together very well; although they were not at an advantage, they were not at a disadvantage either.
Que Yu quickly joined in, and took out a golden rope. The rope, like a snake, quickly wrapped around the round-faced boy's ankle, and he let out a sharp cry.
Yun Fuzhao heard the sizzling sound of roasting meat, and saw that the rope was actually corroding his skin.
Que Yu explained: "The Immortal Binding Rope".
No wonder.
However, this action thoroughly enraged the round-faced boy, whose body began to emit golden light.
The blinding light instantly swept across the entire miracle, and the shattered skeletons were illuminated by the golden light, causing their cultivation levels to rise rapidly.
Yun Fuzhao clearly felt that Wuji's sword light was frozen when it approached him.
Her expression was solemn as she took out the Yin-Yang chessboard. Since things had come to this point, perhaps she could try the Death Formation.
Her fingers flew across the chessboard, arranging the pieces. The skeletons that tried to get close to her took a step forward and were swallowed by the swamp. They tried desperately to climb out, but they sank deeper and deeper.
The swamp continued to expand, eventually engulfing the entire miracle.
Just as the frost was about to spread to the feet of the two boys, the girl gave a soft shout, and the swamp instantly froze over.
Yun Fuzhao remained calm, moved the chess pieces on the board, and instantly the world turned upside down, with the sun rising from the ground.
The intense heat was enough to melt everything.
The girl looked surprised and her expression towards Yun Fuzhao became more inquisitive.
However, in the presence of God, such tricks cannot harm them at all.
With a flick of her finger, the golden lotus beneath her feet burst forth with dazzling light, its golden petals transforming into sharp knives that melted away the scalding heat.
Unable to dodge in time, Yun Fuzhao unleashed the Bloodthirsty Lotus.
Upon seeing this, the girl gasped, "Roadside weeds are being used as amulets?"
The roots of the Bloodthirsty Lotus trembled, whether from anger or fear, it rushed forward recklessly, but was torn apart by the golden petals the instant it approached the girl.
The roots broke into sections and fell to the ground.
The Bloodthirsty Lotus struggled on the ground for a moment before completely losing its life.
A metallic taste rose in Yun Fuzhao's throat.
She wanted to summon back the Bloodthirsty Lotus, but she could no longer resonate with it.
Her fingers tightened, and endless hatred surged in Yun Fuzhao's chest. She stepped onto Wuji, her hands forming hand seals, and headed straight for the girl.
Que Yu glanced at her and said in a deep voice, "Don't be impulsive."
"I'm very sensible."
Yun Fuzhao's sword dance left afterimages as she swung it, "I will make her pay the price!"
The girl initially didn't take Yun Fuzhao seriously, her defense was perfunctory and careless. However, the consequence was that her robes and skin were torn by the sword.
Golden liquid kept oozing from the cuts in the skin.
"Damn it."
The girl's eyes were filled with anger, and she was also provoked by Yun Fuzhao's reckless fighting style. The moment Yun Fuzhao approached, she grabbed her by the neck!
The girl's body shrank rapidly until she returned to a normal size.
She easily pinned Yun Fuzhao to the ground, without her using much force.
Yun Fuzhao struggled desperately but could not break free from her restraints.
"Yun Fuzhao!"
Seeing this, Yu Ze immediately tried to rush over, but he was entangled by the skeletons and couldn't get away. In his haste, he also suffered many injuries.
Jiaoyu and Queyu were being beaten by the round-faced boy, and they couldn't even protect themselves, let alone save her.
Blood was flowing from his mouth and nose.
He looked quite disheveled.
"A mere human," the girl sneered, "daring to attempt to obtain the power inherited from the gods?"
Yun Fuzhao's chest was gradually emptied of air, and her face began to turn black.
Her vision began to blur.
No wonder my eyelids kept twitching before I came; it was definitely not a good sign.
Does she really want her lifelong reputation to be ruined like this?
I wonder if I can return to my original world after dying here.
Just as she was lost in thought, the girl's expression suddenly changed, her hand abruptly lost its strength, and she collapsed without warning.
Yun Fuzhao was badly hit by her, so he mustered all his strength and shoved her away.
Surprisingly, the girl remained motionless, her hand still gripping her. She was like a statue.
Not only her, but also the round-faced boy and the other skeletons were all petrified on the spot.
Yun Fuzhao struggled to her feet, and Yu Ze rushed over to support her, his dark eyes filled with lingering fear.
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
Yu Ze's face was covered in blood, and he looked no better than her.
"what is going on?"
Que Yu and Jiao Yu walked over, limping.
"I don't know." Yun Fuzhao didn't understand either.
However, their doubts did not last long, as a man slowly emerged from the sculptures.
Yun Fuzhao was surprised, "Shang Ji?"
A light purple sphere was floating in Shang Ji's hand, surrounded by rotating golden rings.
"While you were fighting, I secretly took this thing out."
Shang Ji smiled and said, "It seems that the two true gods need the power of inheritance to move."
