Chapter 146: Chapter 44 The Evil-absorbing Sword

Thousands of red lotuses, big as bowls, bloomed all at once; on any regular day, this would have been a breathtaking scene difficult to forget. However, through Yue Jinghua’s eyes at this moment, the beautifully enchanting red lotuses appeared like sinister female ghosts, each bearing a malevolent grin.

The core of the lotus was not the verdant lotus pod, but rather clumps of fresh Blood Evil, each the size of a child’s heart.

It seemed as though the Blood Evil, sensing the prey in the Killing Prison attempting to escape, surged out and flowed towards the Youlian Palace.

That gushing Blood Evil, upon entering the palace, was drawn into the Xuan Beast Bone Carvings placed alongside.

The beast carvings, already turned into white bones, gradually fleshed out, each emitting "crack crack" and "hissing" sounds, and came to life.

Beside the Purple-eyed Young Man, the stiff wing bone of the Wind-calling Eagle moved, a red light surged within its eye sockets, and it fluttered up, fiercely pouncing towards the Purple-eyed Young Man.

The variously sized Dark Beast Stone Sculptures, either crawling or running, all came to life one by one.

Only then did Yue Jinghua realize why the Purple-eyed Young Man hadn’t run away immediately before; the Feise Empress Dowager had used some sinister method to refine this pool of Evil Lotus, the Evil Lotus Killing Prison, which flawlessly coordinated action and stillness, truly made escape seem as impossible as growing wings.

Watching as tendrils of Evil Qi, like creeping vines, covered the palace’s eaves, any slight movement inside would naturally cause the Evil Qi to contract.

With no way to heaven, she could only seek a way to survive back where she was, but as soon as Yue Jinghua touched the ground,

The accumulation of dark Evil Qi above grew denser, like a sudden cloud of dark clouds descending.

Yue Jinghua felt an extraordinary disruption in the energy within her body, the air so suffocatingly heavy it made breathing difficult.

Even with "Pu Yin" in her possession, it was so, the circumstance of that young man was probably even worse.

Looking back at the other side of the side hall, Yue Jinghua was startled again.

Without revealing herself, the revitalized Xuan Beasts inside the palace were more than a hundred in number.

The Xuan Beasts, offered in blood sacrifice, had already lost their Spiritual Sense. Wave after wave, like the tide, they surrounded the Purple-eyed Young Man.

Yue Jinghua had thought that even if he could protect himself, he must be in a state of complete disarray.

For a Xuan Beast selected by the Feise Empress Dowager and sent into Youlian Palace must at least be of Middle Level, and if the Xuan Beasts were not dead, facing them one by one isn’t much; but now, nearly a hundred Mid-level Xuan Beasts gathered together had the strength of ants devouring an elephant, making the situation dire for the Purple-eyed Young Man.

This time, Yue Jinghua had once again underestimated the Purple-eyed Young Man.

Facing such peril, the Purple-eyed Young Man remained composed. He stretched out his hand, his palm blazing with purple light, striking, repelling, Breaking Formation.

To Yue Jinghua’s surprise, his hand movements were not hurried, flowing slowly like a gentle stream, yet it was this stream-like palm technique, striking with pinpoint accuracy, almost without pause. The slightest touch of the purple light on his palm on the Dark Beast Stone Sculpture caused them to disperse like lime met with wind.

With a "hiss", just as Yue Jinghua was engrossed in watching, a streak of Evil Qi lurking in the palace brushed past her face, immediately causing a trickle of blood to seep from her cheek.

Evil Qi, which rots flesh and devours essence blood, upon encountering fresh human blood, finds it the most delicious treat and begins stirring restlessly.

Yue Jinghua’s Concealment technique could avoid detection by human and Xuan Beast eyes, but couldn’t escape the omnipresent Evil Qi.

While Yue Jinghua was injured, the fluid momentum of the Purple-eyed Young Man’s palms briefly hesitated, for reasons unknown, he seemed to care quite a bit about the "friend" concealed nearby.

To care, for someone of his nature, was already extremely rare.

Watching the countless Evil Qi, like myriad black tadpoles, swimming towards Yue Jinghua’s hiding spot,

Too much Evil Qi, its approach fiercely fast.

The aura of Blood Evil, rolling in continuously like snowballs, a vivid red exuding a nauseating stench, made Yue Jinghua feel an urge to vomit.

Her chest ached, breathing forcefully through her mouth and nose, the Blood Evil getting closer and closer!

Too fast, too many, the speed of the Blood Evil made escape extremely difficult, so much so that the entire air was filled with the Qi of Blood Evil, enough to suffocate her to death

Her heart suddenly sped up, but just as the Blood Evil approached, at this critical moment of life and death, her mind became strangely clear..
