Fairy, listen to my explanation.

Chapter 604 Extreme Soul-Locking Nails

"Om..."

Qin Yu didn't hesitate. He immediately activated his true essence, and with a thought, a Star Prison Suppression Array slowly condensed.

"That's...that's the Starry Sky Prison Suppression Formation?!"

Emperor Qi's pupils suddenly contracted, and an expression of disbelief appeared in his eyes.

Throughout history, numerous ancient formations have been discovered in ancient ruins, and the Bai family was particularly fortunate to have obtained the Thousand Leaf Locking Heaven Formation, which was the envy of all major powers.

However, it is different from the ancient formations in the ruins!

The Starry Sky Prison Suppression Formation is an ancient formation used by ancient sages to suppress ancient malevolent spirits!
Its profound mystery far surpasses that of other ancient formations.

Throughout history, no one has ever fully comprehended the Starry Sky Prison Formation. Even the grandmasters of formations of each generation have spent their entire lives without ever fully understanding it.

Whenever the Starry Sky Prison Formation encounters a problem, the major immortal kingdoms gather formation masters to try to maintain it with their respective skills.

And this young man is actually planning to condense the Starry Sky Prison Suppression Array by himself?

"Om!..."

Emperor Qi involuntarily held his breath. As Qin Yu lightly tapped his finger, his majestic face shone brilliantly under the light of true essence.

As his true essence surged, intricate and profound array patterns were drawn out. The entire process was smooth and seamless, as if he had repeated this action countless times.

In just a short while, a complete Star Prison Suppression Array was formed. Although it was a smaller version, it emitted profound fluctuations, drawing the power of the stars into righteous energy.

It is exactly the same as the ancient formation.

"It really is the Starry Sky Prison Suppression Formation!"

Emperor Qi's eyes widened suddenly, his heart filled with shock, and he was speechless.

No wonder the ancient Bai family, such a proud existence, would make an exception and allow Qin Yu to become their family's offering, enjoying a supreme status.

It turns out that his mastery of formations was truly astonishing!

Perhaps Qin Yu has also repaired part of the Bai family's ancient formation?
Thinking of this, Emperor Qi couldn't help but sigh softly.

Speaking of which, the Bai family's location is within the territory of the Great Qi Immortal Kingdom, and he had long harbored some designs on the Bai family.

After all, any emperor would be displeased if a blessed land within the Immortal Kingdom were occupied by an ancient clan.

However, now that he thought of the Bai family's ancient formation, which was powerful enough to withstand a half-saint level expert, and whose power had increased, Emperor Qi felt somewhat helpless.

It seems that the plan against the Bai family is unlikely to continue.

"laugh!"

Just as Emperor Qi was pondering, blue smoke suddenly rose from the deep pit.

Emperor Qi was astonished to discover that Qin Yu had not repaired the ancient formation, but instead threw down the smaller version of it.

What is this operation?
"Is he purifying the malevolent energy?"

When Emperor Qi realized that the massive amount of malevolent energy in the deep pit had decreased, he was completely stunned.

The Starry Sky Prison Suppression Formation, isn't it only supposed to suppress malevolent spirits?!

Otherwise, the ancient malevolent spirits would have been completely purified long ago over these endless years.

When he saw Qin Yu once again condense the ancient formation to continue purifying the malevolent energy, Emperor Qi was somewhat bewildered and couldn't help but look at Emperor Yan.

However, the latter remained calm, as if he had long been accustomed to this scene.

"Emperor Yan, the six ancient malevolent spirits you suppressed, could it be...?"

Emperor Qi suddenly thought of a possibility, and his voice became somewhat hoarse.

"solved."

The Empress said calmly.

Looking at Emperor Yan's nonchalant demeanor, Emperor Qi couldn't help but twitch his lips.

That is something that even the ancient sages could not completely eliminate. How could Emperor Yan not know what this means?
The only possibility is that she has seen it too many times and is no longer moved by it.

Ah!
No wonder, long before Qin Yu rose to fame, he had already become a royal retainer of the Great Yan Immortal Kingdom!
Emperor Yan had excellent judgment!

However, is this related to auspicious omens? Otherwise, why wasn't such a prodigy born in the Great Qi Immortal Kingdom?

First came auspicious omens, then came the Qin fish...

Thinking of this, Emperor Qi felt even more envious.

Qin Yu worked diligently, trying her best to purify all the malevolent energy, before finally restoring the ancient formation.

Having witnessed Qin Yu's methods, Emperor Qi no longer had any worries.

Based solely on Qin Yu's ability to purify malevolent energy, he no longer needs to worry about the catastrophe brought about by the rampant malevolent energy.

The powerful human beings in these three areas have all been relocated. Even if their malevolent energy erupts, Emperor Qi only needs to personally suppress it and wait for Qin Yu to come and purify it.

It's just unknown what price Qin Yu will pay to purify the malevolent energy.

Judging from his pale face, he must have exhausted a lot of energy.

I really wish I could send my beloved daughters over to comfort this master.

This is not some kind of appeasement!
Emperor Qi believed himself to be more dignified than Emperor Chu, and thus did not do anything like sending his beloved daughter to the capital of the Great Yan Dynasty to ask Master Qin for her hand in marriage.

but……

If the Chu emperor's plan succeeds.

I could consider it.

After all, anyone would be tempted after witnessing Qin Yu's abilities.

If we can be on good terms with Qin Yu, it will be of immense benefit to the Great Qi Immortal Kingdom.

Under the personal leadership of Emperor Qi, the remaining malevolent energy in the three ancient formations was almost completely purified in just over a day.

Cultivation Level: Early Nascent Soul Stage (72%)

[Innate Talent: Top-Grade Daoist Bone (Fire Seed Value 1706800/1600000) (Can be upgraded)]

[Mental Strength: Mid-Level Microscopic (Spark Value 1706800/400000) (Can Break Through)]

Qin Yu glanced at the flames, having dealt with six weakened ancient malevolent spirits and purified the residual malevolent energy in six ancient formations, gaining nearly 900,000 Fire Seed Values, just enough for his Root Bone Breakthrough. He wasn't in a hurry; although the Ground-Leaving Flame Banner concealed his aura, breaking through to the Root Bone would still cause some changes.

For example, the speed at which spiritual energy automatically enters the body, and above the highest grade of Dao bone, it is very likely related to the power of Dao rhyme.

As a semi-saint, Emperor Qi might be able to sense something amiss.

The safest way is to wait until we return to the Great Yan Immortal Kingdom before attempting a breakthrough.

"Om..."

Just as Qin Yu was about to repair the ancient formation, the ground beneath her feet suddenly trembled violently, and a strange black mist began to condense in the previously purified pit.

The sudden change in the situation caused Emperor Qi's expression to change slightly.

The Empress moved gracefully and appeared beside Qin Yu.

In the deep pit, a cloud of black mist slowly condensed. Unlike the menacing aura, it was eerily quiet, as if it were lurking and waiting for something.

"Death energy?"

Emperor Qi frowned, and a ball of flame condensed at his fingertips. Under the light of the flame, one could clearly see that something alive seemed to be wriggling within the inky black mist.

"Shh!"

As Emperor Qi raised his hand, flames rose, transforming into a fireball that enveloped the deathly aura.

However, even with the activation of primal power, it only imprisoned the deathly aura, but failed to remove it.

As Emperor Qi moved, the land at the bottom of the pit was overturned, revealing countless white skeletons.

It is unknown how powerful these skeletons were in life. The bones have endured for countless ages, and each one faintly shimmers with a pale golden light.

However, on the skull of each skeleton, there was a black nail stuck in it.

"Soul-Locking Nail of the Ultimate Path".

The Empress's eyes narrowed, and her voice turned icy.

Judging from the shape of these skeletons, they must have been ancient sages of the human race.

However, after their deaths, their souls were imprisoned forever in their bones by such evil means, suffering the torment of soul refining day and night.

Emperor Qi's face turned ashen, clearly having discerned these things. He immediately let out a cold snort, and a wisp of scorching, violent fire-attribute Daoist power surged forth.

"Wow!"

Under this vast power of Daoist energy, even the black nails were heated red-hot, but no matter how much Emperor Qi urged them, he could not pull them out even an inch.

It's not hard to imagine that the being who left behind this evil technique must have surpassed the Half-Saint Realm.

Even after such a long period of time, it is not something that a half-saint can decipher.

Qin Yu's expression turned serious. He immediately sat down cross-legged, disregarding everything else, and focused all his energy on activating the divine technique to quickly restore his true essence.

How could death energy appear in the sealed land of ancient malevolent spirits?

He vaguely sensed that beneath this ancient formation lay a secret unknown to others.

"I refuse to believe it!"

Emperor Qi's attempt to remove the black nail failed, and his expression immediately darkened.

Emperor Yan and Master Qin were still watching from the sidelines!
"Om..."

The next moment, the originally blazing flames suddenly rose up, and the terrifying high temperature gradually subsided.

The power of origin!

Clearly, Emperor Qi had no intention of holding back any longer.

"Om..."

As the primal power entered, light surged on the black nails, and a faint flame rose in the eyes of each skeleton, flickering as if these ancient sages were struggling in agony.

"Emperor Qi, stop."

The Empress frowned and said in a deep voice.

Forcibly pulling out the Extreme Soul-Locking Nail with the power of origin, regardless of whether he can do it, will only intensify the suffering of these lost souls.

Emperor Qi also noticed the abnormality. After hesitating for a moment, he waved his hand and dispersed the power of origin.

As the light on the black nails dimmed, the eerie glow in the eyes of the withered skeletons finally dissipated.

"Hmph, what a vicious method!"

Emperor Qi clenched his fist, and the veins on his arm bulged.

He wanted to help these ancient human sages find liberation, but he was powerless to do so.

This feeling was extremely uncomfortable for him, as the emperor!

"Emperor Yan, do you have a solution?"

Emperor Qi took a deep breath and asked.

The Empress pondered for a moment, realizing that the residual death energy on the black nail could not be purified by the power of origin.

Perhaps the auspicious power of the moonlight has the effect of dispelling death.

Thinking of this, the Empress took out a Bright Moon Pearl, and with a thought, a wisp of pure moonlight power flowed out.

Under the Empress's control, the power of the moonlight fell upon the skull of a withered skeleton.

"Om..."

Under the power of the moonlight, the black nail's light dimmed, but the deathly aura within it was not dispelled.

Until the moonlight power within the Bright Moon Pearl dissipated completely, only faint white marks remained on the black nails.

The Empress did not attempt to retrieve the Moon Pearl again. Clearly, the power of the moonlight had little effect, and even if she summoned auspicious omens, it would likely have limited effect.

"Even the power of moonlight cannot dispel it?"

Emperor Qi's expression darkened, somewhat unwilling to give up: "Emperor Yan, why don't we ask that person from the Kong family to try and help?"
