Rumbling sounds kept on spreading. The battle between Lord Sixth and Bai Li was earth-shattering; the sky changed color, clouds parted, and terrifying waves surged into the sky.
Their every strike seemed to be able to overturn mountains and rivers. In fact, just the aftershock of their divine arts coming into contact caused the surrounding void to shatter.
Cracks continuously formed in the space around the two of them. From time to time, the space would collapse, forming a huge black hole that seemed to be able to devour everything.
There were also bolts of lightning that were like heavenly punishment that kept swimming in the surroundings. They even transformed into horns that sent out battle cries and fought against each other.
Not only that, but their figures also flickered continuously in the sky. One moment, they were fighting in close combat, and the next moment, they would be fighting with long range attacks.
Storms were casually pinched by them and turned into their own divine abilities. Countless white thread-like worms drifted out of Bai Li's body, and every one of them distorted and assumed the shape of runes, forming streams of Great Yin Mystic Lightning that shot toward Lord Sixth.
Upon closer inspection, those black lightning bolts were formed by countless worms. They would explode as soon as they got close to Lord Sixth. In fact, some of the spatial cracks that had just formed were frozen in the next instant.
From afar, the spatial cracks that were frozen looked like white centipedes.
As for Lord Sixth, he wasn't ordinary either. With a wave of his hand, the surroundings were filled with a sea of weapons that surged with killing intent.
The aura it emitted contained the power to destroy the world.
However, Bai Li was extremely extraordinary. Although his cultivation base was similar to Lord Sixth's and Lord Sixth even had the wine gourd… this Bai Li was still not at a disadvantage.
After all, Lord Sixth's talent was in refining artifacts, not fighting.
Amidst the rumbling, Bai Li teleported in front of Lord Sixth. He performed a series of hand seals and pointed. Immediately, a saber beam appeared out of thin air. The saber beam split the void, forming a huge crack that danced toward Lord Sixth. Lord Sixth's expression changed and he retreated.
Seeing this, Bai Li suddenly laughed.
"As expected of a Nascent Soul cultivator from a small place. You have such a magic artifact, but still cannot kill me."
"Since that's the case, I might not have to escape today. Killing you and snatching your top-grade magic artifact can be considered a great harvest as well."
As he spoke, Bai Li slapped his forehead and his body instantly trembled. His back swelled up, forming a large bump that was filled with countless blood vessels and worms. The large flesh bump suddenly exploded.
A plant grew out of it.
This plant was a total of 30 feet long and extended above Bai Li's head. It was completely blood-colored and had six leaves with jagged edges. It also had a triangular flower with countless stamens!
A large number of densely packed runes flowed like blood through the body of this strange plant. The moment it appeared, a powerful divine aura spread out.
This aura was too strong, causing Xu Qing's eyes to sting. It was the same for the captain but the madness in his eyes grew.
"Divinity!!"
What the plant emitted was divinity.
Moreover, the density was extremely majestic. The instant it appeared, the plant lifted its head and shook its body at the wine gourd in the sky.
A violent wind swept over, blowing down the swaying stamens of the triangular-shaped flower, revealing… a malevolent ghost face!
This ghost face's eyes were red and looked extremely sinister. At that moment, it was grinning.
"Let's see if your top-grade magic artifact is stronger or my Illuminate Divine Seed!"
Bai Li laughed loudly and waved his right hand. Immediately, medicinal pills flew out of his sleeve and headed straight for the face in the flower.
These medicinal pills were semi-finished products. Moreover, their ingredients weren't any medicinal herbs but flesh and blood.
One could see the shadows of dead souls on every pill. Every dead soul looked very young. Clearly, they were all heaven's chosen who had disappeared over these years.
They were tortured and refined by Bai Li. He used their flesh and blood to refine pills and fused their souls into them, turning them into medicinal pills.
He didn't refine these pills to consume them himself but to feed that evil plant, which was the divine seed he mentioned. However, the plant clearly required an extremely large amount, so he came to the Forbidden Sea.
It was too dangerous to do this on the Wanggu Continent. However, here, he felt that he should be able to handle any danger with ease.
As the medicinal pills were devoured by the plant, amidst Lord Sixth's furious roar and violent killing intent, the plant suddenly emitted a sound at the wine gourd in the sky!
"Hong!"
This sound was different from normal pronunciation. It was more like a spell and it gave off the feeling that it was clearly just a single tone but at the same time, it seemed to be a special sound formed by the fusion of countless sounds.
As soon as the sound was emitted, crackling sounds rang out from the sky. Streaks of red lightning directly appeared on the wine gourd. These lightning bolts increased to countless numbers in the blink of an eye.
The entire process only took a few breaths of time. At least hundreds of thousands of red lightning bolts appeared in the sky and enveloped the wine gourd, forming a huge runic mark.
This extremely complicated runic mark transformed into a seal that weakened the might of the wine gourd.
