"Boom!" The Taiyu Clock emitted a dazzling light and crashed down, with faint patterns appearing on its surface. These were the heavenly Dao patterns, each strand carrying the weight to crush mountains. The resounding vibrations filled the sky, causing the entire universe to tremble. The firmament cracked, and energy splattered, forming a large vacuum area. The three empresses of the Celestial Fox Clan, who were waiting outside the barrier, also felt a tremendous shock. "They actually threw the Taiyu Immortal Clock down like that. What a waste!" The Undying Immortal was once again shocked. The Immortal Gold was filled with the laws of the Great Dao, capable of unleashing supreme Dao techniques. It was indeed a waste to use it like a hammer. "This blood-colored giant is very strange. It must possess special divine abilities. The array that was previously set up has also been withdrawn." As Jiang Chen's Dao companion, the Celestial Fox Empress understood him better. Seeing the current battle, she immediately made a rough guess. Jiang Chen was not someone who liked to show off. He usually refrained from taking action unless necessary. It was his style to go with the flow. Now, he threw the Taiyu Clock down like a hammer, clearly because other methods were not posing a significant threat to the blood-colored giant. The scene that followed was just as the Celestial Fox Empress had guessed. After the earth-shattering roar, the blood-colored giant did not fall. It actually withstood the attack! The collision between the two emitted an immense force, producing continuous explosions. Cracks quickly appeared on the surface of the barrier and spread.
The three of them had to quickly activate their Dao techniques to repair these cracks while using illusions to conceal the situation in this world, preventing others from prying. Just as the barrier had healed, a thunderous roar shook the heavens. The blood-colored giant finally couldn't hold on any longer. "The tenth strike!" Jiang Chen waved his palm, once again lifting the Taiyu Clock and then slamming it down. Illusory images of the heavens appeared on it, as if the universe was suppressing. "Bang!" The armor on the blood-colored giant's body had turned into countless fragments, flying in all directions. However, they still possessed destructive power that even True Immortal realm experts couldn't withstand. "Puff!" The Taiyu Clock's power was extraordinary. It ruthlessly smashed into the blood-colored giant, directly smashing half of its body into pieces. Whether it was tendons or the hard bones inside, everything turned into a bloody mess. The force equivalent to the weight of a universe could create a large hole even when striking an Immortal Domain. It was difficult to resist with flesh and blood. "Cough, cough!" The blood-colored giant lay on the ground, already devoid of combat power. Crimson blood continuously seeped from its mouth and nose, emitting a faint glow. The greed in its eyes had not disappeared. It was more of an unwillingness, unwilling to accept its own weak power, unable to seize the treasure. "To withstand ten attacks from the Taiyu Clock, you can be proud of yourself." Jiang Chen calmly spoke. To be honest, he hadn't expected the blood-colored giant to withstand so many attacks. To be precise, it wasn't the blood-colored giant that withstood the Taiyu Clock, but the armor composed of ghost-faced soldiers on its body. These metals, which appeared rusty and almost decayed, possessed astonishing hardness, comparable to Immortal Gold. Jiang Chen still had some fear in his heart regarding these strange metals. Otherwise, he would have collected them all and melted them into weapons, which would undoubtedly possess extraordinary power. "Save me... save me..." The dying blood-colored giant ignored Jiang Chen's words and instead raised its head, looking towards the distant darkness. Its voice was indistinct. With every word spoken, large amounts of blood mixed with visceral fragments flowed out, the injury was enough to endanger one's life, even if Jiang Chen didn't strike back, he would still meet a certain death. Of course, Jiang Chen was meticulous in his thinking and would ensure that nothing went wrong. He couldn't just let it self-destruct here; he would definitely eradicate it completely.
The reason why he didn't immediately exterminate it was to lure the snake out of its hole. When Jiang Chen first arrived in this area, he keenly sensed something different. Besides the blood-colored giant, there was another peculiar aura. In this deep and boundless darkness, there was likely another person hiding in the shadows, preparing to launch a surprise attack. That's why Jiang Chen left the blood-colored giant with half its life, wanting to force the mastermind behind it to reveal themselves and avoid being caught off guard by a surprise attack. The blood-colored giant lying on the ground also cooperated very well, constantly crying out for help. At this moment, all it wanted was to preserve its life. Time was passing quickly, but there was no sign of anyone appearing, not even a fluctuation in aura. In this space, it seemed like there were only two people. "It seems that no one can save you." Jiang Chen lost his patience, waved his palm, and once again struck with the blood-stained Taiyu Bell... The Dao patterns fluctuated, and the heavens manifested. "Pluff!" The blood-colored giant was powerless to resist, looking at the Taiyu Bell getting closer and closer with despair, until its body split into pieces and turned into minced meat. The fate of its upper body was the same as its lower body. "Huh, I should have used Dao techniques when he was severely injured to see if it would work. I made a mistake," Jiang Chen muttered to himself, belatedly realizing. Because he had been thinking about the mastermind behind the scenes, he forgot about this opportunity to understand this strange creature. "Never mind, if this strange creature invades the Immortal Domain again, I will have plenty of opportunities to experiment. If it doesn't invade, then it doesn't matter that I know so much." "Let's leave this place first. The Taiyu Bell has probably already spread the news, and I don't know if it will attract big trouble." These were all trivial matters that Jiang Chen didn't care about. He was ready to leave the crack. "Splash, splash, splash." Suddenly, the sound of flowing water echoed throughout the entire space, like a tired and endless stream, flowing deep in the soul. This was not just a sound that could be heard with the ears; the entire mind could feel it. Even if one used spiritual power to investigate, it could be clearly perceived. But along with the sound of flowing water, the space lit up, and a pale light appeared, forming in some unknown place, seemingly everywhere. The Taiyu Bell returned to Jiang Chen's head, slowly rotating, and warm radiance fell, protecting him securely. A round and beautiful moon slowly rose from a distance, large enough to see the uneven circular mountains and a flowing blood creek on it. The sound Jiang Chen heard earlier came from this creek, which could directly reach the physical body and penetrate the soul. The position of the moon was also very clever, blocking the path ahead and completely covering the crack leading out. "What is this again?" Jiang Chen couldn't help but furrow his brows. Seeing this scene, he knew that the mastermind behind the scenes had appeared, and his first impression was also one of strangeness. The previous blood-colored giant had already violated the basic rules of cultivation, everything was going against the natural order. This round moon emitted the same eerie feeling that couldn't be ignored, as if it was brewing something terrifying.
At the same time, a slender figure slowly emerged from the moon...
