Chapter One Fainted

  The Yang brothers reappeared above the Valley of Souls, seeing that the great array had been broken, they were extremely excited. Before they could even speak, suddenly they saw a flash of blood light on the high tower, and the broken array actually started to operate again. The countless white mists in the Valley of Souls slowly condensed and converged towards the high tower. Then, countless deathly aura-emitting warriors burst out of the ground, charging towards them with a loud roar.

  At the sight of this scene, the two brothers' faces changed abruptly. The rushing enemy was indeed mighty and formidable, but it was not enough to make them change color; what really worried them was this great array - if the great array were to take shape again, all their efforts would be in vain.

  They exchanged a glance, and Yang Ba Tian burst out laughing loudly. With his long sword in hand, he swung it swiftly, and in an instant, the sword energy became violent and stormed towards the crowd of enemies rushing from outside.

  "Hahaha! Wipe out all living things in the valley!"

  In an instant, the aura of death, blood, and sword clashed and surged; the whistling sounds, rumbling sounds, and explosive sounds never ceased to echo in the ears. A great battle unfolded thoroughly within the Valley of Souls.

  Yang Jing Tian no longer paid attention to anything else, and in a flash of his figure, he rushed towards the high tower.

  The master of the Soul Sect flashed into the control room of the high tower, saw the densely cracked blood-red crystal, and was furious. However, with a strong enemy approaching, he couldn't afford to be distracted, so he quickly sat down cross-legged and rapidly chanted a sacrificial text.

  Instantly, a brilliant blood-red crystal light burst forth, countless blood-colored runes appeared, and the cracks were restored at a speed visible to the naked eye. Immediately following that, the high tower's bloody glow surged, and the broken array began operating once more.

  The grand array was activated once again, and it began to repair itself automatically, frantically devouring all the powers within a hundred miles. At the same time, the Soul Sect Master, who was sitting cross-legged in front of the blood-red crystal, merged with the high tower as he chanted his incantation. The crown on his head radiated dazzling light, and the massive power gathered by the grand array continuously surged into his body.

  In an instant, his cultivation skyrocketed several times, rapidly soaring towards the pinnacle of the Emperor level.

  The high tower was bathed in a brilliant light of blood, the waves of death swirling around it as it spun. Amidst the soaring bloody glow, a vague shadow appeared atop the high tower.

  Suddenly, a strange and cold chanting voice floated out from the high tower, and the white mist that had gathered in the Soul Valley accelerated rapidly. Almost in the blink of an eye, a towering white jade skull with a golden crown on its head appeared at the top of the tower. Its breath was overwhelming, and its power far exceeded the peak of the Emperor level. The skull's eye sockets were filled with blood light, and a mournful roar echoed throughout the sky.

  "Roar!"

  This towering white jade skull is the projection of the Soul Sect's sect master, a skill granted by the Golden Crown called "Projection of the Underworld God". Through the crown, it can create a duplicate that is exactly the same as itself, releasing an aura far surpassing its own strength during battle.

  "Boom!" A loud noise, a huge white jade skull with overwhelming momentum fell to the ground. The blood-colored magic lines around him flashed rapidly, and in an instant, the giant skull body continued to shrink, eventually transforming into a skull of the same size as the Tongshen Sect Master, engaging in a fierce battle with Yang Qingtian who rushed over at extreme speed.

  "Who are you?"

  The white jade skull spoke first, its pair of eyes gleaming like ghostly fires as it stared fiercely at Yang Qingtian, as if ready to clash swords at any moment. Looking at the strange skull in front of him, Yang Qingtian felt extremely uneasy. He raised an eyebrow and said proudly, "I am Yang Qingtian, the leader of the Tian Ding Sect."

  Bai Yu's skull face suddenly revealed a look of astonishment, and he stared at Yang Jing Tian in front of him. His blood-red eyes flashed with uncertainty for a moment. After a while, he roared at Yang Jing Tian: "My Soul Sect has never offended your Tiandu Sect, why did you bring people to attack the Soul Sect?"

  Yang Jing Tian coldly laughed and said: "Why should I attack you? Hmph! Your Hun Zong Pai people came to my territory to kill my granddaughter, yet you still dare ask me why!"

  "How dare you! When did I ever send someone to kill your granddaughter?"

  Bai Yu's skull was furious and uncontrollable, thinking that the other party was purely slandering. This excuse is also a bit too rotten! The Tianding Sect is one of the top two in Tianyuan, even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to provoke them. Moreover, Yang Jingtian is notorious for being overprotective, and chasing his granddaughter to kill her on the territory of the Tianding Sect, isn't this just asking for trouble? Unless he's gone mad, although his brain has been rotten for many years.

  A burst of anger, Bai Yu's skull suddenly paused, as if he had thought of something. Damn! It couldn't be...

  Things can't be this bad, right?

  I remember that not long ago, in order to help him break through to the Emperor level, the Soul Sect collected a large number of boys and girls everywhere. Could it be that someone has swallowed their courage and gone to kidnap the daughter of the Tian Ding Sect?

  At the thought of that, his white bony frame shook with rage. Damn it! If he found out who the bastard was behind this, after settling the matter, he would extract his soul and use the underworld fire to refine him for eternity, then summon all the souls of his ancestors and turn them into puppets, making them unable to transcend forever.

  Looking at the white jade skull in front of him, Yang Qingtian's face was stern and had a strong aura of immortality. With a belly full of anger, he scolded: "Hmph! Let me tell you, today you will know the consequences of offending me."

  The white jade skull with a golden crown on its head hurriedly eased the atmosphere, smiling apologetically: "Could there be some misunderstanding? Can't we sit down and discuss it properly, why make such a big fuss?"

  Yang Jing Tian hesitated and said: "Oh? Then how are you going to clear up the misunderstanding?"

  "This... let's take a look...... Ah...... Yang, you're despicable!"

  The white jade skull had not finished speaking, when in an instant he was cut down by a dazzling sword energy, one of his white bony arms severed at the shoulder, with a loud "Boom!" The sound of the explosion, his white jade-like skeleton crashed into the high tower, causing the blood-colored magic lines on the tower to shake violently.

  "You bastard!"

  A mass of white mist surged towards his severed arm, and in no time a brand new arm reappeared. He pointed at Yang Jing Tian with anger, his entire body trembling with rage. The anger in his heart was indescribable, he couldn't believe that as the leader of the Tian Ding Sect, he would resort to such a despicable sneak attack!

  "Idiot!"

  Yang Jing Tian sneered, his sword flashing with anger as he launched a fierce attack, like a stormy wind and rain. In an instant, the white jade skull was engulfed. Although the white jade skull's power was in no way inferior to Yang Jing Tian's, its martial skills were far too lacking, and it had no way to defend against the incoming long sword. Its skeletal frame was disassembled and reassembled repeatedly, only to be disassembled again.

  "Boom!" A loud explosion, the White Jade Skull was once again split into four pieces by Yang Qingtian's sword. However, this time it did not immediately reassemble, but instead a roar burst out from within the high tower, followed by another eerie chanting voice, and in the sky, another "Ghost God Projection" slowly took shape, only this time its power seemed even more fierce.

  "Damn it! Is this ever going to end?"

  Seeing this scene, Yang Jing Tian was completely furious. He didn't allow Bai Yu Lou to reorganize and rushed up immediately.
