Chapter 1348
As soon as Qin He stepped out of the rocky outcrop on the outskirts of the Demon Abyss, he saw billowing dust ahead and seven or eight disheveled figures stumbling and running towards him.
The man in the lead had ripped trousers and blood seeping from his knees; he was the escaped criminal he had rescued from the sacrificial array not long ago.
The two sides met face to face, and the group froze on the spot, their faces showing even more fear than when they saw the evil cultivators of the Skull Pavilion.
Someone's legs cramped, and they collapsed to their knees with a thud, their voice trembling: "Lord Demon... Lord Demon, the people from Sin City and the Divine Court have attacked Langhuan Mountain!"
Qin He frowned, and the demonic flames at his fingertips flickered involuntarily: "How many people are there? Who is leading them?"
"I don't know, but a lot of people have come. There are powerful figures wearing gilded armor, as well as people from Sin City." The kneeling man kowtowed several times. "They are causing trouble, killing anyone they see without any mercy."
Qin He asked no more questions and his figure transformed into a wisp of black smoke as he shot out.
The response speed of the Divine Punishment Division far exceeded expectations; the effect was immediately different depending on who presided over it.
It can truly be said that a bad soldier is just one bad soldier, and a bad general makes a bad army.
In less than fifteen minutes, the outline of Langhuan Mountain came into view.
Golden light shot into the sky from the entrance to the mountain, and the sound of exploding talismans rose and fell. The shouts of Da Ya Jin could be faintly heard. They were surrounded and forced to retreat into the formation. Others could leave, but they could not.
With a wave of his sleeve, Qin He unleashed a surge of black energy that sent dozens of people flying backwards, clearing out a large area.
Then Qin He's figure flickered, and he landed in the center of the demonic net. The demonic flames around him suddenly surged: "If you know what's good for you, get out of the Langhuan Mountain area within three breaths."
The leader was a Divine Bridge Realm warrior. Seeing that Qin He could suppress everyone's true essence with just his aura, they dared not fight him head-on.
He waved his hand and led his men away in a sorry state, not forgetting to utter a harsh threat before leaving: "The Lord of the Divine Punishment Division will be here soon, you can't escape."
Qin He ignored his threat and had no intention of killing indiscriminately and getting into trouble, so he quickly walked into the mountainside.
Inside the cave, Da Ya Jin and the others were leaning against the stone wall, panting. When they saw the newcomer's face appear, they finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Brother Qin, you're finally back. The people outside are about to break through the magic net."
Qin He waved his hand and turned his gaze to the sacrificial array in the center of the cave.
The Skull Pavilion cultivators, chained up, were already ashen-faced. When they saw him enter, some couldn't help but cry out and beg for mercy, but Qin He's cold, sharp gaze silenced them.
Just then, a sliver of light suddenly shone through a crack in the rock at the top of the cave.
The light was extremely faint, yet it carried an indescribable warmth. Qin He looked up and saw that the inky black sky of the polar night was quietly fading, and the oppressive force of the super array that had been suffocating people was receding like the tide.
The persistent feeling of stagnation in his chest disappeared, and even the demonic energy in the air became gentle.
The polar night has turned into sunshine; we've arrived.
A gap was torn in the black clouds in the sky, and golden sunlight poured down like a waterfall, falling on the black rocks of Langhuan Mountain and reflecting a scattering of golden light.
The sacrificial array inside the cave suddenly began to hum, and the dark red array patterns began to absorb the sunlight, with an eerie golden-red interwoven luster appearing at the edges of the patterns.
"It's now."
Qin He flew down to the center of the formation, his hands forming intricate hand seals. He poured all the remaining demonic energy into the formation, causing the outer layer of demonic runes to spin wildly, drawing in both sunlight and demonic energy.
The light chains rising from the middle layer of the Soul-Locking Pattern suddenly tightened, embedding themselves deeply into the body of the Skull Pavilion cultivator.
The central Soul-Capturing Crystal Core emitted a blinding red light, echoing the sunlight in the sky.
"No, don't kill me!"
A Skull Pavilion cultivator finally broke down, trying to break free of his chains, but was pinned to the spot by the power surging from the Soul-Locking Runes.
His body began to convulse, and his essence blood flowed along the grooves of the array patterns, turning into streaks of blood that merged into the array.
The others were not spared either; screams rose and fell, but seemed particularly faint in the holy light of the turning sun.
The moment the essence blood filled the array patterns, the void in the center of the cave began to distort.
A pitch-black rift slowly unfolded, and a teeth-grinding sound came from within it.
A sharp claw covered in black scales emerged, its tip coated with congealed black slime, and shattered the stone slab upon landing.
Immediately afterwards, a gigantic monster emerged—it had three heads, a body as robust as a bull, a pair of tattered fleshy wings on its back, and was surrounded by black mist that could distort light.
The Void Specter has been successfully summoned.
The ghost let out a deafening roar and crashed towards the top of the cave.
With a deafening roar, stones rained down, but only created a ripple on the light screen of the super array.
The light screen trembled slightly, and a few small cracks appeared, but they were quickly repaired by the sunlight.
Qin He's face darkened. This level of destructive power was simply not enough to tear a sufficiently large hole.
Without hesitation, he sent a stream of pure demonic energy onto the Void Ghost.
"Berserk!"
"Roar!"
The Void Spectrum suddenly tripled in size, its three heads simultaneously spewing out black flames, and its fleshy wings unfurled, carrying the power to incinerate everything as it crashed into the light barrier once more.
"Crack!"
This time, the light screen of the super array couldn't hold up.
A hole about ten feet wide was forcibly smashed open, and sunlight shone directly through the hole, falling on Qin He's face.
He could clearly sense that the spatial barrier of the great formation was collapsing rapidly.
In the distance, the golden orbs of light from the Divine Court cultivators could be seen rapidly approaching on the horizon.
Li Linfeng is here!
