Chapter 243 Taking advantage of her distraction while fighting the enemy, they removed her eyes.
Chapter 243 Taking advantage of her distraction while fighting the enemy, they removed her eyes.
Zhai Rong frowned and looked over, her heart leaping into her throat.
The Wu family's restrictions are indeed terrifying. If you get too close, even if your master comes, his cultivation will probably be absorbed.
She lowered her eyes and stared at the dress she was wearing, lost in thought.
On the altar, Wu Muhong's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he suddenly shouted, unleashing his spiritual power.
Sensing the pure and powerful cultivation, the restrictive vortex spun like a storm, devouring all the spiritual power on Wu Muhong's body.
As his cultivation level continued to decline, Wu Muhong's face grew increasingly pale.
"Li'er, take your positions!"
The new head of the Wu family must activate a spell at this moment, dripping his blood into the magic circle on the altar to prevent the acceptance of the new master, only then will the vortex stop.
However, the previous patriarch lost his spiritual power and did not have time to escape before the vortex closed.
Wu Muli stood up and prepared to go on stage.
Helian Tanyao gave him a look.
"Excuse me, could you please move aside?" he said to Zhai Rongyu with a somber expression.
Zhai Rongyu stood up, walked to the front, and made way for him.
Wu Muli took two steps forward, but suddenly reached out and unleashed a burst of spiritual energy, pushing Zhai Rongyu into the vortex of the restriction!
Helian Tanyao curled her lips into a smile, her eyes filled with cruel satisfaction.
Helian Kuangmo's expression changed drastically, and he suddenly stood up from the main seat.
“Wu Muli!!!” he roared.
The restriction has always absorbed the Wu family lineage; if it were to consume Zhai Rongyu, its power would immediately be greatly reduced!
Besides, he hasn't even taken her blood yet, nor has he taken her eyes!
We absolutely cannot let her die in the vortex!
Just as Helian Kuangmo was about to make a move, a sudden, violent fluctuation occurred. The restriction seemed to have been violently impacted by some force, the vortex stopped spinning, and the array on the altar showed signs of cracking.
"Not good! The array's core is damaged!" Wu Muhong was the first to react, shouting to Helian Kuangmo, "Your Majesty! Someone has tampered with it! The ceremony must be stopped immediately!"
If the array's core is damaged during the sacrifice, the Wu family's restrictions will be temporarily ineffective!
Helian Kuangmo was shocked. Zhai Rongyu was clearly here! Who on earth dared to be so bold!
The time has come!
Zhai Rong smirked as she flew halfway through her journey. Taking advantage of the Wu family's weakened restriction, she quickly pulled out a talisman from her bosom, immobilizing herself in mid-air and simultaneously releasing the seal on her dress.
"Trying to harm me? I'll kick you away!"
She spun around and kicked Wu Muli into the vortex, then clapped her hands and landed steadily on the ground.
"Brother Li!"
"Li'er!"
Wu Muhong and Helian Tanyao were both shocked.
Wu Muhong rushed into the vortex, sacrificing himself to the formation before Wu Muli could, and used his last bit of spiritual power to push Wu Muli off the altar.
"Father!" Wu Muli landed outside the altar, watching helplessly as the restrictive vortex devoured Wu Muhong's flesh and blood.
Even if the restriction fails and the vortex's suction force decreases sharply, it will still devour any prey that comes its way.
"Li'er! Don't worry about your father! Start the battle immediately!"
After leaving behind those words, Wu Muhong shattered into pieces and vanished completely.
Wu Muli's eyes were red as he glared at Zhai Rongyu with hatred. "Witch, you harmed my father, I will never let you get away with this!"
He leaped onto the array, pierced his palm, and dripped his blood into the array.
Zhai Rongyu was speechless.
Why is this person trying to shift the blame? It's clearly their own fault, what does it have to do with me?
Besides, wasn't Wu Muhong supposed to offer a sacrifice anyway?
As she was complaining, the Wu family's restrictions recognized a new master, the vortex closed, and the magic array suddenly became more powerful, seemingly absorbing the power of the entire palace's restrictions.
At this moment, apart from this formation, the entire palace is probably completely free of any restrictions!
Helian Kuangmo was furious and swept all the offerings on the main seat to the ground. "Go! Send someone to the study to see who has the audacity to destroy the array's core!"
A squad of soldiers received the order and went to carry it out.
Zhai Rong stuck out her tongue, secretly grumbling to herself.
[Ah Xu already succeeded in taking over the underwater star-cutting array's core with my weapon; your going there won't make a difference.]
The guards quickly returned to report.
"Your Majesty! The array's core in the study has been cut open! What remains on it is the power of the ocean!"
Helian Kuangmo opened his eyes wide in disbelief.
The power of the ocean...
The only oceanic power capable of slicing through the array's core is the sunken star at the bottom of the sea!
He suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhai Rongyu, "It's you!"
He gritted his teeth and said, "You've already obtained the sunken star at the bottom of the sea! You've been lying to me all along!"
"Hmm~" Zhai Rongyu responded in an infuriating tone, raising an eyebrow mischievously, "You dare to covet my mother's things? You're really clueless."
"But it's really stupid that you only realized this now."
"You're courting death!" Helian Kuangmo roared in fury.
"What? You're not pretending anymore?" Zhai Rongyu tilted her head to look at him. "You said you wanted to treat me like a daughter, but if your mother knew, she would have thrown up her dinner from last night."
Enraged, Helian Kuangmo shouted at Wu Muli, "What are you waiting for?! Quickly use the power of the restriction to kill this woman!"
He was so angry that he was almost out of his mind.
The underwater treasure of the sunken star has been stolen; he must kill her!
Wu Muli absorbed all the power of the restriction, suddenly went berserk, and rose into the air.
"Witch, today I will activate the secret arts of the Witch Clan and take your life!"
In an instant, lightning flashed and thunder roared. Wu Muli's eyes turned a bewitching purplish-red. The heavens and earth trembled, and bursts of demonic sounds burst forth from the void, condensing into a powerful beam of light that shot straight toward Zhai Rongyu.
Those with lower cultivation levels were affected by the residual force and painfully covered their ears.
Helian Tanyao coughed up a mouthful of blood, collapsed to the ground, and nearly fainted.
Helian Kuangmo stared at Wu Muli in mid-air with a sullen face.
Even if he uses all the power of the restrictions, he will kill Zhai Rongyu here today!
Zhai Rongyu, seeing the beam of light coming towards him, composed himself and said, "Han Guang Sword, draw!"
The blue sword flew out and landed steadily in Zhai Rongyu's hand.
Holding a sword, she made a hand gesture and leaped into the air.
"Heaven and earth are boundless; wherever they go, all the gods welcome them!"
"Hurry up as a law!"
The Han Guang Sword emitted a golden light, and the sword spirit wrapped around it, condensing into a huge blue beam of light that rushed head-on towards the purple light!
Bang-!
The two collided, shaking the heavens and the earth, as if mountains and rivers were shaking violently.
Wu Muli held a short flute, playing a demonic melody, and unleashed the full power of the Wu family's restrictions as he pressed towards Zhai Rongyu.
She shook the Hunyuan Bell in her hand, preparing to fight with all her might.
"Dragons fight in the wild, and all the ten directions are destroyed!"
The immense spiritual power clashed with the mental power, and the two fought fiercely, unable to determine a winner for the time being.
Zhai Rongyu sensed something was wrong.
[The Wu family's restrictions are highly refined, and my mental strength hasn't fully recovered yet. If this fight continues, I'm afraid I won't gain any advantage.]
Upon seeing this, Helian Kuangmo's brow furrowed with a gloomy aura, and his killing intent began to rise.
Why not take advantage of this demoness's distraction while she's fighting the enemy and steal her eyes!
He won't care how she dies then!
Thinking this, Helian Kuangmo raised his hand and channeled his inner strength into the dagger, then mercilessly slashed it toward Zhai Rongyu's eyes!
