Swordholder

Just as the three turned to run away, an immense and terrifying divine power, capable of shattering heaven and earth, instantly swept down, imprisoning Chen Yuan and the other two in place, unable to move an inch, and even breathing became extremely difficult.

"May our incense burn eternally, and may all beings revere us!"

At this moment, a vast, ancient, and profound celestial sound suddenly resounded throughout the heavens and earth, shaking the entire underground secret realm. With sacred majesty, it struck the minds of the three people directly.

"You have seen me three times and yet you have not bowed; how dare you be so presumptuous?!"

The moment the words fell, a tremendous sound exploded in the ears of Chen Yuan and the other two, instantly deafening them and causing them excruciating headaches, as if struck by lightning.

"ah!!!"

The three of them screamed in agony at the same time. A sweet taste filled their throats as they spat out mouthfuls of blood. Their faces turned ashen, their bodies went limp, and they collapsed onto the skeleton, their bodies twitching slightly.

"No...no way?"

Li Wei's face was full of bitterness and pessimism as he said, "Are the three of us going to die here?"

boom!

Just then, the pressure looming over the three of them increased once again!

"Ouch...it hurts!"

Nuomi screamed, unleashing the evil energy within her. Instantly, her eyes turned blood red, her hair flew wildly, and fangs sprouted from her mouth.

"roar!"

Li Wei roared, his whole body shining with golden light, and a golden Dharma image appeared vaguely behind him, though it was rather blurry.

This time, his entire skin turned golden.

Chen Yuan was the same; he was directly demonized, his white hair dancing wildly, and his eyes flashing with sharp demonic light.

All three unleashed their trump cards to resist the terrifying pressure emanating from the three statues.

"Billions of living beings prostrate themselves in worship, yet you dare not kneel? And you still dare to resist? Do you perhaps believe that divine power is irreversible?"

The deep, resonant voice rang out once more, followed by a deafening roar that surpassed all previous ones. It was like thunder exploding above Chen Yuan and the other two, creating an overwhelming force that violently assaulted their bodies.

boom!

In an instant, the three of them were thrown out again.

This time, countless bones were shattered all over Chen Yuan and the other two, their bodies were torn to shreds, blood and flesh were mangled, and the scene was extremely tragic!

"Damn it!"

Chen Yuan roared, his face contorted with rage.

This was the first time he had ever been so miserable.

"I'll worship your mother!"

Chen Yuan turned around, struggled to get up, and pointed at the three statues, cursing angrily.

"I·····"

Unable to speak, Li Wei could only raise his middle finger at the statue.

Nuomi seemed to transform into a rampaging little lion, its hair standing on end, constantly baring its teeth at the three statues.

Such disrespectful words and actions seemed to have stunned the three statues, or perhaps some consciousness.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yuan and his two companions not only showed no reverence for the statue, but also cursed and disrespected it.

After a long silence, a cold voice rang out.

"Those who blaspheme will have their souls annihilated and their spirits destroyed!"

Before the words had even faded, a gray arm extended from the surface of each of the three statues.

The arm twisted and extended like a snake, moving with incredible speed, instantly piercing Chen Yuan's head, chest, and dantian.

Clearly, Chen Yuan's outburst resulted in his being jointly annihilated by the three divine statues!

"A-Yuan!"

Upon seeing this, Li Wei roared with fury, tears streaming down his face as he wailed wildly.

"Waaah, don't die! What will I do if you die? What good is it if I'm invincible in this strange world?"

Even if you become the greatest in the world, dominating all ages, what good is it? Without brothers to share it with, it's still incredibly lonely!

Chen Yuan, "..."

"Stop arguing... You can't even keep up the time when you're bragging, my head... it hurts so much... ugh!"

Chen Yuan screamed in agony, collapsed to the ground, covered his head with his hands, convulsed all over, and bulging veins on his face.

Those three arms seemed to want to destroy his soul, crush his heart, and shatter his dantian.

"Brother Ayuan!"

Nuomi's face turned anxious, then quickly became extremely ferocious. She roared and came up, constantly biting at one of the arms.

Upon seeing this, Li Wei's expression changed, and he immediately came to help.

Chen Yuan's eyes rolled back, his body convulsing, the excruciating pain nearly causing him to faint.

But at this critical moment, the three vortexes inside his body suddenly started spinning rapidly.

Righteous spiritual energy, demonic spiritual energy, and evil spiritual energy flowed wildly through his limbs and bones, and with golden power, carrying supreme divine abilities, it exploded with a bang!

hum!

Chen Yuan's body instantly burst into flames, and the phantom of a golden divine bird rose up, swirling boundless waves of fire, sending Nuomi and Li Wei flying.

"what!"

The three statues let out terrified screams, their previous imposing aura gone.

Immediately afterwards, a sense of terror and horror spread from the statue.

"How...is this possible?"

"How could such a terrifying divine seed exist within you?"

The thought cried out in alarm, its voice filled with utter horror and disbelief.

Chen Yuan was surprised; clearly, this consciousness could not recognize the level of the divine seed within him.

Unlike the Golden Crow Divine Bird, this result brought him a sigh of relief.

boom!

Almost simultaneously, the golden crow phantom emanating from Chen Yuan rose up, burning the gray arm that had pierced Chen Yuan's body into ashes!

Chirp~ ...

The phantom of the Golden Crow Divine Bird let out a deafening cry and charged toward the three divine statues!

boom!

The phantom of the Golden Crow Divine Bird exploded, transforming into a sky full of fire waves that instantly enveloped the three divine statues, causing them to blaze fiercely.

A mournful cry emanated from within the three statues.

The cry stopped abruptly after a short while, as if something had been burned to death by the Golden Crow True Fire.

The three statues were also burned black, and had lost their former imposing presence.

Chen Yuan gasped for breath, his eyes filled with lingering fear.

Is this what happens when you're foul-mouthed?

I almost died earlier.

Suddenly, he looked down at his chest and dantian.

As the three vortexes within his body spun rapidly, the wounds on his body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Even the hole in the ceiling.

Once his injuries had stabilized, Chen Yuan immediately got up and staggered over to Li Wei and Nuomi to check their injuries.

What shocked Chen Yuan was that both of these guys had terrifying healing abilities!

"Holy crap, A-Yuan, that divine bird that erupted from you, is it the Golden Crow?"

Li Wei jumped up, his face beaming with excitement, and exclaimed, "So cool! I want to learn!"

"Without the divine seed bestowed by the Origin Yang Pearl, I'm afraid you can't learn it."

Chen Yuan said helplessly.

"what?"

At this moment, Nuomi let out a soft "Eh" and said, "Brother Ayuan, that umbrella is flying this way, and um, and those two swords too."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan and Li Wei's pupils suddenly contracted.

The next instant, almost instinctively, they reached out and caught the flying object.

Chen Yuan caught the blood-red bone sword, and Li Wei caught the golden greatsword.

Nuomi caught the black umbrella.

The moment Chen Yuan touched it, he felt a stinging pain in his palm, as if an evil force, like countless hair-like needles, pierced his palm, spread throughout his arm, and then tried to spread throughout his whole body.

"What kind of bone is this sword made of???"

Chen Yuan was greatly alarmed and immediately activated the red vortex within his body. As the red vortex rumbled around, a terrifying devouring power spread from his dantian throughout his body.

The evil power on the blood-red bone sword was instantly devoured, and Chen Yuan devoured as much of it as it surged towards him.

The blood-red bone sword emitted a sense of bewilderment and instantly fell silent, like a lurking ferocious beast.

Chen Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, but was still shaken; it had been too dangerous.

Fortunately, he had a strong foundation and was not afraid of these evil attacks.

He glanced at Nuomi and Li Wei, and after finding that they were both alright, he immediately began to examine the blood-red bone sword in his hand.

"This sword seems to allow the evil spiritual power within me to erupt more powerfully. Now, the Evil Spirit Annihilation Slash can be used much better..."

Chen Yuan muttered to himself, a look of joy on his face.

Then, out of curiosity, he went over to examine Nuomi's umbrella and Li Wei's golden giant sword.

.........

The outer passage of the Evil Blood Demon Cave.

The fierce battle roared and subsided, leaving behind a trail of corpses, broken bones, and dried black blood, all testifying to the perilous and bloody battle that had taken place here.

Chen Qingcang concealed his figure, speeding through the dark and winding passage, his expression extremely solemn and his heart filled with anxiety.

His gaze swept quickly across the broken corpses scattered along the way, all of them the bodies of powerful members of the Earth Phase Clan, but he could not find any trace of Chen Yuan and his two companions.

"A-Yuan, where are you... You can't be hurt..."

He murmured to himself, his brow furrowed, his heart burning with anxiety.
