Little Master seemed to perceive the abnormality within Shen Luo's body and pointed his finger.

A white light crystal entered Shen Luo's chest, filled with thick and unparalleled vitality and although slightly different from the Pure Yang Power, it also carried a rich and upright breath. Fusing with the Pure Yang Power inside Shen Luo, it immediately suppressed the bursting Demonic Qi.

“Thank you, City Lord,” Shen Luo's expression relaxed, and he nodded in thanks to the Little Master.

“It's just a minor effort, no need for thanks,” Little Master waved his hand and looked ahead.

The explosion of Blood Light ahead soon dissipated, revealing the situation inside. The giant stone pillar had completely vanished, as if it had never existed.

Where the stone pillar had been, a blood-red bone staff about three feet tall was inserted diagonally into the ground. Its design was simple and ancient, with faint Blood Light throughout, emanating no breath at all.

The Devouring Element Magic Wand, Nine Nether, and the other four Demonic Artifacts hovered in mid-air, revolving quickly around the blood-red bone staff, emitting whistles as if subjects were bowing to an emperor.

Blood Skull Ancestor, Demon Heart, and Elder Mei all stood in their previous spots, forcibly resisting the exploding Blood Light without taking a single step back. They each had some wounds, obviously caused by the exploding Blood Light.

No sooner had the Blood Light dissipated than Blood Skull Ancestor and Elder Mei both pounced towards the blood-colored bone staff, while Demon Heart and the others did not move.

“Get lost!” roared Blood Skull Ancestor, sweeping his sleeve.

Two streaks of Blood Light slashed towards Elder Mei; they were two blood-colored bone swords, each flashing with over fifty Blood Prohibitions, both top-grade Magical Treasures.

The two bone swords shot out blood-colored Sword Qi over ten yards long, and with a flash, they appeared in front of Elder Mei, crossing over and descending sharply like a gigantic pair of scissors.

Elder Mei's complexion changed slightly, but she did not retreat. The breath of her cultivation in both Celestial and Demons burst out, shockingly reaching the Late True Immortal Stage. At the same time, she spat out a black scroll filled with flying dagger patterns which flew out and opened with a whoosh.

“Whoosh whoosh,” the shrill sound of whistling blades arose as hundreds of Dark Crystal Flying Knives shot out from the scroll, converging together to form a black wheel the size of a house, colliding with the blood-colored bone swords, producing a tremendous noise and blocking the bone swords.

Elder Mei's body trembled, but she did not pay attention to it. She raised her hand and sent out a purple light, rolling towards the blood-colored bone staff.

Blood Skull Ancestor had not expected Elder Mei to hide her cultivation level and possess such a powerful Magical Treasure that could block his strike. He hurriedly raised his hand and shot out a dark red light, aiming at the staff.

A purple and a red light wrapped around the blood-colored bone staff almost at the same time, trying to pull it out and take it away.

Shen Luo had already suppressed the violent Demonic Qi and, upon seeing this scene, the hand hanging by his side twitched, the fingertips shining with golden light.

This blood-colored bone staff appeared to be a treasured artifact of the Demon Clan; it falling into the hands of scheming individuals like Blood Skull Ancestor and Elder Mei would definitely not bode well.

And beside him, Little Master also had a faint white light around him, evidently sharing the same thought as Shen Luo. They exchanged glances, ready to take action.

Just at this moment, a heart-wrenching scream suddenly came from ahead.

Shen Luo quickly looked over, his pupils contracted, seeing Blood Skull Ancestor and Elder Mei abruptly stop their lunging movements, falling seated near the blood-colored bone staff, faces twisted in pain.

A layer of Blood Light emerged on the bone staff, flickering gently.

And the two beams of light that Blood Skull Ancestor and Elder Mei had enveloped the bone staff with had now turned blood-red as well, seemingly tainted and controlled by the Blood Light of the staff, now enveloping them instead.

Elder Mei's whole body shook, her skin quickly withering away, her eyes filled with terror. She struggled to turn her head towards Shen Luo and Little Master, her mouth opening as if to call out.

But with a flash of Blood Light on her body, her flesh instantly withered, turning her into a withered corpse with only skin on bones, her breath vanishing along with it.

“`

And the Blood Skull Ancestor's body was enveloped with blood light which faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, lingering just a breath longer than Elder Mei before also turning into a withered skeleton.

“Hiss…” Shen Luo took in a sharp breath, prepared to make a move.

The Little Master, Mu Xiao, and others had similarly drastic changes in their expressions.

Mu Xiao, who had been following closely behind Elder Mei and was about to make a move for the Bone Staff, stopped in his tracks upon seeing this scene, even retreating a good distance away.

On the other side, the Asura Puppet Ghost, Netherworld Scholar, and Rakshasa Ghosts–three True Immortal ghosts–suddenly burst into blinding blood light and exploded violently.

Their bodies also detonated, turning into countless fragments of Yin Qi that scattered away.

“Life and Death Blood Curse…” the Little Master whispered, shaking his head with a sigh.

Shen Luo's pupils constricted, recognizing that this was a kind of God's Power associated with curses, often used to control subordinates and spirit beasts. With the master fallen, those cursed would also be stripped of their lives. It seemed that the Blood Skull Ancestor had used this curse technique to control his subordinates.

With the fall of the Asura Puppet Ghost, Netherworld Scholar, and Rakshasa Ghost, several of the Yin Beasts outside the Yin Cave with profound cultivation also exploded and died, evidently also afflicted by the blood curse. It was unclear whether it was the Blood Skull Ancestor or the three ghosts themselves who had placed it.

The other Yin Beasts were terrified beyond measure, fleeing in all directions. In the blink of an eye, they had all scattered, leaving Tianji City's residents shocked yet relieved, with many unaware of what had transpired.

Shen Luo paid no attention to the situation outside, focusing instead on the blood-colored Bone Staff in front of him, his expression extremely grave.

He had been using his Divine Sense to probe the Bone Staff's condition. Just now, when Elder Mei and the Blood Skull Ancestor were sucked dry, the Divine Sense around the Bone Staff was forcibly absorbed into it, almost being completely devoured.

Fortunately, after weathering the Thunder Tribulation, his Divine Sense had become semi-solid, and he fully engaged the Suppressing God Technique to withdraw it forcefully, thus avoiding significant damage to his Divine Sense.

“What exactly is this Bone Staff?” Shen Luo murmured to himself.

In that instant, the blood-colored Bone Staff seemed to transform into an unfathomably deep demon cave, attempting to swallow him whole.

But just then, amid the whooshing sound, a figure landed beside the blood-colored Bone Staff–it was the Demon Heart–and Yuan Ming along with the fat man and the Green-clothed Young Woman were still standing at a distance.

Demon Heart had an expression of indifference, as though he hadn't just witnessed the fates of the Blood Skull Ancestor and Elder Mei, and took out a dark red bone tooth, piercing it into his right arm with a “puchi” sound.

Immediately, a surge of blood light emanated from the bone tooth, rapidly dyeing his entire arm blood-red, the same shade as the Bone Staff.

Seeing this scene, Shen Luo realized that the Demon Heart was orchestrating the current situation and probably had a way to control the blood-colored Bone Staff. “He must not be allowed to take the Bone Staff!” With this thought, Shen Luo darted out, his hands forming claws and ripping through the void.

Instantly, his arms blazed with thunder, and dozens of thick golden lightning bolts shot out, striking fiercely at Demon Heart.

The Little Master, with keen awareness, made a move almost simultaneously with Shen Luo. Amidst a crisp, piercing cry, the Thousand Mechanism Sword transformed into a sword rainbow tens of yards long, slashing at Demon Heart like furious thunder.

Seeing Shen Luo and the Little Master strike, Mu Xiao hesitated only briefly before turning into a green shadow and disappearing into the ground.

Yuan Ming and the others had been on standby, ready for action. As soon as Shen Luo made a slight move, they each took out a white jade talisman and adhered it to their bodies–these were the Primordial Spirit Talismans used by the Tortoise Sect's Hall Master Zhong, capable of enhancing one's cultivation level.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Their breath swiftly soared, breaking through a realm in an instant. Yuan Ming reached the Middle Stage of True Immortal, while the fat man and the Green-clothed Young Woman stepped into the Early True Immortal Stage.
