Chapter 26: The Absolute Judgment of the Chakra Giant, Approaching the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well
The void above the swamp seemed to be torn apart, and the viscous poisonous fog instantly vaporized under extreme heat and mental pressure.
"What... what is that?"
Xue Li's remaining half of his body twitched violently, his murky eyes filled with unprecedented terror.
Within his field of vision, a massive, skeletal giant shadow, flowing with dark red light throughout its entire body, was rising from below the horizon.
Lin Sheng's pupils seeped blood. The Mangekyo pattern in his right eye was glowing red and burning hot due to overload.
"Slash—!"
Following a low, cold shout, that massive, half-length blood-colored skeleton fully took shape.
The two massive bone arms swung violently to the sides. The overwhelming waves of fire from the fixed-location Spirit guidance bombs were actually sliced open by two materialized mental sword qi!
The aftermath could only weakly batter against the crystal-clear ribs of the Susanoo, producing a dull, thunderous sound.
Long Aotian and Princess Vina were firmly protected in the center by this magnificent blood-colored light. Even with explosions raging all around, this area of several zhang became the only safe haven.
"It is over."
Lin Sheng's gaze was like a blade, his divine sense shifting slightly. The arm of the Susanoo, tightly gripping the blood-colored longsword, suddenly raised high, then descended with an overpowering momentum capable of severing everything, striking down from above!
"No—!"
Xue Li let out a desperate roar, and his Spirit, Blood Spirit, was extinguished in an instant before the blood sword, which was over ten meters long, just like a candle in the wind...
Where the sword edge passed, a chasm dozens of meters deep was cut into the mud, and Xue Li's incomplete body, along with his sinful soul, was completely reduced to nothingness amidst the incomparably overbearing spatial vibration and mental strangulation.
"..."
The smoke of the explosion gradually subsided, and sporadic sparks still flickered on the scorched earth. The massive body of the Susanoo gradually became ethereal and dissipated...
Lin Sheng's figure swayed slightly, yet he still stood as straight as a javelin.
"Princess Vina, Long Aotian, are you alright?"
He turned his head to look at his companions behind him. Long Aotian was holding his chest, a trace of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth. He had been injured in his meridians by the sudden explosion just now.
Princess Vina's face was pale, and the light of her Snow Lotus Spirit also appeared somewhat dim, but since she possessed healing abilities, it was not a major issue.
Lin Sheng's gaze instantly turned cold.
"Lin Sheng, we are fine... you consumed too much energy, are you okay?"
Princess Vina tried to stand up by force, but was stopped by Lin Sheng raising his hand. He slowly turned around, his blood-colored Sharingan looking coldly at the other side, dozens of meters away.
"Ah..."
There, the Shrek team was in chaos. Ma Xiaotao was curled up on the ground in pain, the evil fire around her body was moving wildly beneath her skin in an extremely bizarre way, leaving behind streaks of crimson blood!
Beside her, Ling Luochen's face was like frost. Her five spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, and one black—were pulsing with full power, the ultimate ice aura attempting to suppress the rampaging flames, but with little effect.
"It was you! You are the one who triggered the evil fire inside Sister Xiaotao!"
A Shrek inner court disciple stood up abruptly, glaring at Lin Sheng with bloodshot eyes, his spirit power surging. "You scum from the Body Sect, to actually use such underhanded tricks behind our backs!"
Upon hearing this, the killing intent in Lin Sheng's eyes almost solidified into substance. "Underhanded tricks?"
Lin Sheng took a step forward; with every step he took, the scorched earth beneath his feet emitted a fragile sound, unable to bear the weight.
"If it weren't for you geniuses from Shrek's inner court being so self-righteous that you couldn't even manage basic stealth, how would you have provoked the Evil Soul Master to detonate the bombs in a desperate struggle?"
He scanned the area. His gaze swept over the face of every Shrek disciple like a knife. "Since you have caused my companions to be injured." "Then die here!"
The Mangekyo in Lin Sheng's right eye rotated faintly once more. The Shiranui illusion deep in Ma Xiaotao's sea of consciousness was the trump card he had left behind; as long as he wanted, he could guide that illusionary fire at any time to completely trigger Ma Xiaotao's phoenix evil fire. If that happened, she would be able to kill herself.
"If this continues, Xiaotao will not make it."
Ling Luochen felt the unquenchable spiritual fire within Ma Xiaotao's body, her heart filled with inexplicable horror. This method of control... this deep assimilation of emotions and flames was simply unheard of!
"Boom—!"
Just as the atmosphere was tense and Lin Sheng was preparing for a final reckoning, he suddenly frowned. He looked up sharply at the sky several miles away.
The originally dark purple clouds had been smeared with an eerie, dark cyan color at some unknown point, and thunder rumbled deep within the clouds, yet it carried no righteous aura. Instead, it exuded a bone-chilling coldness that made one's hair stand on end.
"This aura..."
Lin Sheng muttered to himself, the insight of his double pupils allowing him to clearly capture the oppressive sensation approaching at high speed from afar. "A Spirit Douluo-level Evil Soul Master, have they arrived as reinforcements after sensing the commotion of Xue Li's death?"
Lin Sheng remained silent for a moment. However, when he looked back and saw Long Aotian's unnatural standing posture and Princess Vina's weak breathing, his reason forcibly suppressed his bloodthirsty impulse.
"Leave."
Lin Sheng coldly dropped this one word, walked to Long Aotian and Princess Vina, and reached out with both hands to support them.
"Lin Sheng, what about those Shrek people..." Princess Vina glanced at the Shrek group.
"Let them fend for themselves."
Lin Sheng did not look back, condensing his spirit power to take the two of them and leave the place directly. Their figures instantly faded amidst a distortion of space, disappearing into the mist.
The Shrek elites' expressions were extremely ugly. Ling Luochen gritted her teeth; she knew the current situation was extremely dangerous, as that terrifying evil aura was pressing in from afar. And if Ma Xiaotao's condition was not taken back to the Sea God Pavilion for treatment, she would likely explode and die!
"Retreat! Take Xiaotao, go!"
The Shrek group awkwardly carried Ma Xiaotao on their backs and retreated frantically toward the outskirts of the Sunset Forest.
...
Deep in the Sunset Forest. Lin Sheng led Long Aotian and the other away from the path that the Evil Soul Master reinforcements were bound to take, and as they continued to venture deeper, the surrounding vegetation began to undergo strange changes. The originally dark purple poisonous miasma seemed to become increasingly dense; wanting to enter it was truly extremely dangerous.
"Such dense poison..." "I am afraid we cannot go any deeper, can we?"
Lin Sheng nodded. "It is still safe here, let us rest here for a moment. The poisonous fog is dense here, so Spirit Beasts actually dare not approach."
"I will go ahead and take a look."
While Princess Vina and Long Aotian were resting, Lin Sheng headed forward alone. In the vision of the Sharingan, everything appeared so transparent; he saw the ultimate fire elements and ice elements circling in the world, converging ahead.
"Wanting to enter the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is like crossing the poisonous fog." "Or even... facing the test of a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast." Lin Sheng muttered to himself.
With his current strength, facing the attacks of an Immortal Herb with hundred-thousand-year cultivation would likely be extremely strenuous.
