Chapter 751: Unexplained hostility, puppet battle array appears

“Boom! Boom! Boom!!!”

The Heavenly Gate Pass, radiating golden jade brilliance, firmly suppressed the palace built of white bones, causing it to tremble continuously and emit a chilling ghost Qi like mist.

Lu Changsheng deployed the Symbol Array and, along with several Core Formation cultivators from the Goddess Palace, swept the surroundings, further bombarding the White Bone Palace.

As the faint light flowing around the White Bone Palace shattered like a mirror, Shen Baishuang, with a azure ancient mirror above her head and a golden ancient sword in hand, tore through layers of the Void Realm and directly entered the palace. Looking down at the graceful figure on the imperial steps, she said from above, with a slight upturn of her lips: “Si Guihua, you’re just relying on this turtle shell to show off in front of me. Do you really think I’m not your match?”

“Heh heh, it would be more appropriate if your older sister, Shen Jianjia, said that,” the Six Paths Demonic Consort said with a cold voice.

Before her words finished, her graceful and slender figure, surrounded by layers of ghostly shadows, suddenly appeared before Shen Baishuang.

Immediately following, black-blood-colored light burst forth, tens of thousands of ghosts roared, and terrifying, dark red蛟 snakes, seemingly formed from fresh blood, roared out.

At the same time, the White Bone Demon Palace trembled in all directions, and the sounds of ghostly wails and wolf howls rose and fell, interfering with Shen Baishuang’s mind and magical power.

This White Bone Demon Palace was a gigantic Magic Treasure that combined offense and defense.

Once someone intruded, the owner would be like a Formation Master in charge of a grand Formation, able to use the Magic Treasure’s power to enhance their combat strength and employ various methods.

Although the White Bone Demon Palace was suppressed by the Huiyang True Lord at this moment, its usable power was limited, but it was still very terrifying, enough to affect a Nascent Soul True Lord.

However, since Shen Baishuang dared to charge in, she naturally had confidence.

The azure ancient mirror above her head and the red long silk ribbon coiled around her body, making her seem like a Lingbo Fairy impervious to all techniques. With each swing of the golden ancient sword in her hand, golden Heavenly Phoenixes and Divine Phoenixes formed, breaking through endless Heavenly Ghost蛟 snakes, and attacking the Six Paths Demonic Consort.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!!!”

As the two exchanged blows, the Nascent Soul magical power, like a vast ocean, swept in all directions, putting immense pressure on Lu Changsheng and the other Goddess Palace Cultivators assisting nearby, as if they were facing raging waves.

After all, Nascent Soul-level magical power fluctuations alone were enough to cause a certain degree of impact and threat to Core Formation cultivators.

And now, besides Shen Baishuang and the Six Paths Demonic Consort, the clash between the golden gate and the White Bone Demon Palace also formed a terrifying Nascent Soul prestige.

“In this situation, the Second Palace Master still can’t completely suppress the Six Paths Demonic Consort. If not for the Huiyang True Lord, I’m afraid she wouldn’t even be able to break through the defenses of this White Bone Palace…”

Lu Changsheng appeared to be fighting with all his might, but his attention was on Shen Baishuang and the Huiyang True Lord.

Seeing Shen Baishuang and the Six Paths Demonic Consort continuously clashing but remaining evenly matched, he realized that she was not the Six Paths Demonic Consort’s opponent.

After all, this Six Paths Demonic Consort was currently fighting one against two, or rather, one against many.

“But this Six Paths Demonic Consort actually Cultivates Ghost Dao and Blood Dao Cultivation Techniques?”

As the Six Paths Demonic Consort displayed various Divine Abilities and methods, Lu Changsheng discerned that her Cultivation Technique was similar to that of the Yinming Ghost Sect, belonging to the Ghost Dao and Blood Dao.

If he were to release the Tihun Beast, her strength would likely plummet, and she would be no match for Shen Baishuang at all.

However, the Tihun Beast was currently in slumber, brewing for the Four-Rank, so he had no intention of waking it.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

Although Shen Baishuang couldn’t suppress the Six Paths Demonic Consort, the Huiyang True Lord, who controlled the Heavenly Gate Pass, was incredibly fierce.

The golden light-emitting gate crashed into the White Bone Demon Palace, causing it to rumble, shake continuously, and emit ghostly wails and divine howls.

Although this palace was not the Six Paths Demonic Consort’s Natal Treasure, its connection to her Qi caused a severe impact.

It could be seen that at this moment, the several Core Formation cultivators positioned at the palace’s Formation eye were all pale, their magical power unstable, and some even vomited blood.

Such a gigantic Magic Treasure possessed terrifying power, but its consumption was also extremely terrifying.

This was also why this Demon Consort brought so many ghosts and Dao soldiers when she went out.

Under the attacks of the Huiyang True Lord, Lu Changsheng, and others, the light of the White Bone Palace gradually dimmed.

The Six Paths Demonic Consort also gradually fell into a disadvantage and was suppressed by Shen Baishuang, following the White Bone Palace and the Huiyang True Lord’s offensive.

“The Second Palace Master can invite aid, but this Six Paths Demonic Consort is the wife of the Star Constellation Sea’s top Demonic Cultivator. How could she not have aid?”

“Not to mention far away, just now so many Nascent Soul True Lords gathered, and among them were Nascent Soul cultivators close to the Six Paths Palace.”

Lu Changsheng looked at the Six Paths Demonic Consort, who was gradually being suppressed by Shen Baishuang, and a sense of unease arose in his heart.

This battle seemed a little too smooth.

It completely contradicted the minor ominous and moderately ominous omens he had previously divined!

However, as soon as the thought arose, he suddenly felt a sensation and looked towards the sky above.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—”

A layer of dark clouds, obscuring Cultivators’ vision and Divine Sense, roared in, emitting an eerie and sinister Sanskrit chant, as if from the Nine Nether Hell, demanding lives.

Every note was like a sharp bayonet, piercing into others’ eardrums and the depths of their minds, causing splitting headaches, irritability, and surging blood and Qi.

Immediately after, dense, dark black water droplets, filled with chilling killing intent, flew out from within the dark clouds.

“Be careful!”

Lu Changsheng’s expression was alert, and he immediately called out a warning.

Beside him, Qian Zhuyan, whose tall figure resembled a war machine, instantly guarded him, blocking these dark black water droplets.

Although these water droplets came from a Nascent Soul True Lord, most of their power was directed at the Huiyang True Lord, so Qian Zhuyan easily dealt with them.

However, the other few Goddess Palace Cultivators who were only at the Middle Stage of Core Formation instantly turned pale under the life-demanding Sanskrit chant and dark black water droplets. Some even had their bodies pierced, vomiting blood.

“Shen Baishuang, do you really think I’m not your match? Or rather, do you think only you can call for help?!”

Just then, within the White Bone Demon Palace, the Six Paths Demonic Consort, who had been at a disadvantage, suddenly became enveloped in dense ghostly shadows, and blood-red light surged and roared around her. Her Qi soared, breaking through Shen Baishuang’s offensive.

Immediately after, from the depths of the White Bone Palace, a terrifying, dark red ghostly shadow, like a蛟 snake, roared towards Shen Baishuang.

Ghost King!

This was a Four-Rank Ghost King!

“Jie jie jie, Huiyang True Lord, your opponent is me.”

From within the dark clouds, a piercing sound rang out, continuing to unleash methods and attack the Huiyang True Lord on the golden gate.

“Old Ghost Hei, how dare you interfere in my affairs?!”

The Huiyang True Lord recognized the person in the dark clouds, and his voice was deep and angry as he scolded, but he had no choice but to divert his attention to deal with this person.

As he became distracted, the pressure on the White Bone Demon Palace and the Six Paths Demonic Consort instantly greatly reduced.

Meanwhile, the pressure on Second Palace Master Shen Baishuang doubled. She swung the golden ancient sword in her hand, wanting to forcefully break through the layers of attacks and leave.

“Shen Baishuang, do you think my White Bone Demon Palace is a place where you can come and go as you please?”

“Since you’re here, come with me back to the Six Paths Palace. Wait for your older sister Shen Jianjia and your husband Lin Yuanting to redeem you!”

The Six Paths Demonic Consort firmly suppressed Shen Baishuang, not allowing her to escape the White Bone Demon Palace.

As she spoke, two giant ghostly hands suddenly appeared above the White Bone Demon Palace, stirring up layers of Void Realm ripples and grabbing towards Lu Changsheng and Qian Zhuyan.

“Not good!”

Lu Changsheng felt his body sink and instantly knew something was wrong.

At this moment, unless he used his Four-Rank physique and true strength, it would be truly difficult for him to struggle free.

In a flash, he threw out a Four-Rank Talisman, intending to break through the ghostly hands before him and retreat with Qian Zhuyan.

But the White Bone Demon Palace seemed to have anticipated his move, transforming into a colossal white bone beast, forming a terrifying Void Realm devouring force that dragged him into the palace.

Then, with a deafening “bang,” the White Bone Demon Palace crashed through the heavens and earth, crossing the Void Realm towards the Six Paths Palace.

She intended to take Lu Changsheng and Shen Baishuang directly back to the Six Paths Palace!

“No, you want to take Shen Baishuang, but why take me?”

Lu Changsheng saw the Six Paths Demonic Consort’s intention, not knowing why she would take him at the last minute.

How had he provoked her?

However, at this moment, he finally clearly saw the appearance of this Six Paths Demonic Consort.

A face that could topple nations, no less beautiful than the Second Palace Master Shen Baishuang before him, perhaps even three parts more exquisite!

If Shen Baishuang’s beauty was mature and enchanting, making one unable to resist falling into her suffocatingly beautiful red dress, then the Six Paths Demonic Consort before him possessed an indescribable, contradictory beauty.

Seemingly stunningly beautiful, yet she also gave off a feeling of being dignified, grand, noble, and authoritative.

Every tiny detail of her exquisite features was just right, without the slightest flaw, radiating dazzling charm.

Her eyebrows were like delicate willows, graceful and captivating, neither sparse nor dense; her nose was elegantly straight, gentle and refined yet not lacking in noble assertiveness.

Her red lips were vibrant and full, shimmering with a moist luster, showcasing the seductive allure and mature charm of a beautiful woman.

Her skin—cheeks, chin, neck—was all exquisitely smooth and soft, like vast stretches of snow, resembling the most refined white jade.

However, what was most alluring was her extremely enchanting figure.

In Lu Changsheng’s eyes, the Second Palace Master Shen Baishuang’s figure was already enchantingly graceful to the extreme, only Nangong Mili could compare.

But this Six Paths Demonic Consort before him was even more enchanting and captivating; no woman he had seen so far could compare.

A dark jade belt, adorned with dark red patterns, was tied around her slender waist, which seemed as delicate as a weeping willow. The fabric over her chest swelled high, as if on the verge of bursting.

Proudly erect, majestic and grand!

Without shame or embarrassment, allowing others to admire!

Below her slender waist, her rounded hips, though concealed by her skirt, were, to Old Ancestor Lu, who had experienced countless journeys and measured many, clearly large and plump, like a voluptuous and rich millstone, just like Nangong Mili’s.

Although her figure’s curves were breathtakingly alluring, there was no deformity or excess; only an indescribable beauty and charm.

Making one parched, dizzy, and feeling a strong, suffocating temptation at a single glance.

Especially after just battling Shen Baishuang, her dark hair, adorned with a jeweled crown, was slightly disheveled and languid, as if she were a demoness sent from the Demon Realm to bewitch the human world.

Lu Changsheng did not succumb to the captivating allure of this Six Paths Demonic Consort but quickly looked at Shen Baishuang, asking, “Second Palace Master, what do we do now?”

“You ask me? How would I know?!” Shen Baishuang’s beautiful and cold face was somewhat pale as she spoke with an anxious and annoyed voice, her graceful and lithe body swaying under the combined attacks of the Six Paths Demonic Consort and the蛟 snake Ghost King.

“???” Lu Changsheng was speechless.

Damn it, how could such words come out of your mouth?

Could it be that your only reliance for provoking the Six Paths Demonic Consort was the Huiyang True Lord?

Lu Changsheng was stunned, completely unaware of where Shen Baishuang got her courage and confidence.

Or rather, was this Second Palace Master just a reckless woman?

However, despite her words, the next moment, Shen Baishuang produced a purple and lightning-colored pearl, shimmering with arcs of lightning, from her hand.

“Spirit Extinguishing Pearl!”

Lu Changsheng’s pupils suddenly constricted when he saw this lightning pearl.

In the Cultivation World, there had always been some treasures and methods for a desperate fight to the death.

For example, the Yin Thunder Son for the Qi Refinement Stage, the Heavenly Thunder Son for the Foundation Establishment Stage, and the Core Thunder Pearl for the Golden Core Realm.

And this Spirit Extinguishing Pearl in Shen Baishuang’s hand was a lightning pearl that could severely injure or even blast a Nascent Soul True Lord to death.

According to Lu Changsheng, when the Spirit Extinguishing Pearl exploded, everything in all directions would be annihilated, and even the spiritual body of a Nascent Soul cultivator could be directly extinguished.

Seeing Shen Baishuang actually take out a Spirit Extinguishing Pearl, Lu Changsheng was somewhat shocked.

“Just a small Spirit Extinguishing Pearl, and you think you can make me hesitate? Shen Baishuang, you underestimate me too much,” the Six Paths Demonic Consort said with a look of mockery and disdain in her eyes as she looked at the lightning pearl in Shen Baishuang’s hand.

“Small Spirit Extinguishing Pearl?” Lu Changsheng’s heart skipped a beat. He secretly circulated the Hundred Refinements Treasure Body Technique and clutched a Four-Rank defensive Talisman.

“At most, I can protect myself now. If you still have any methods, take the Opportunity to escape,” Shen Baishuang’s beautiful and cold face was somewhat pale, and blood flowed from the corner of her lips. She transmitted a message to Lu Changsheng, then threw out the Spirit Extinguishing Pearl in her hand, and then, with a slash of her golden ancient sword, she tried to forcefully break through the combined attacks of the Six Paths Demonic Consort and the蛟 snake Ghost King, attempting to seize the Opportunity to leave.

However, within the White Bone Palace, countless white bones appeared out of thin air, like a giant Rubik’s Cube, enveloping the Spirit Extinguishing Pearl layer by layer.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!!!”

The Spirit Extinguishing Pearl still unleashed terrifying power, furiously shattering the Rubik’s Cube-like white bones and causing the White Bone Palace to shake and vibrate violently.

In a flash of lightning, Shen Baishuang, at the cost of injury, rushed out of the White Bone Palace.

But the Six Paths Demonic Consort, with blood-red light flowing all over her body and dense ghostly shadows, directly appeared before Shen Baishuang. Her fair, jade-like hand lifted, and the finger guards, like young snakes, transformed into giant roaring蛟 snakes that engulfed her. The red dress on her body, shimmering with a rosy glow, visibly dimmed at this moment.

Immediately after, the dark red蛟 snake Ghost King from not far away roared towards Shen Baishuang again.

“Second Palace Master!”

Lu Changsheng quickly unleashed two quasi-Four-Rank Talismans to help Shen Baishuang share the pressure and block this蛟 snake Ghost King.

Although he had a way to break through the White Bone Palace and escape, he didn’t know why the Six Paths Demonic Consort wanted to abduct him.

He knew that if he left now, he wouldn’t be able to return to the Goddess Palace.

Otherwise, if the Six Paths Demonic Consort negotiated with the Goddess Palace in the future and demanded him back, Shen Jianjia would very likely choose her younger sister, Shen Baishuang.

Moreover, according to the divination, the safest method for him was to return with Shen Baishuang and then seek refuge in the Goddess Palace to avoid disaster.

Therefore, the best option at present was to join forces with Shen Baishuang to repel the Six Paths Demonic Consort, break through the White Bone Demon Palace, and then escape back.

“Second Palace Master, I still have some methods. If I can hold on for a moment, can we wait for the Great Palace Master or other Nascent Soul True Lords to provide support?”

Lu Changsheng formed hand seals, and from his sleeves, three-rank Talismans flew out one by one, coiling around his body, as he transmitted a question to Shen Baishuang.

“Hold on for a moment? Wait for support.”

Shen Baishuang’s delicate face was pale, and blood flowed from the corners of her lips, as if she had heard a joke.

But seeing Lu Changsheng’s serious expression and his efforts to help her share the pressure, she said with a hint of self-abandonment in her beautiful eyes: “If you can kill this Ghost King and all the Cultivators and Dao soldiers in the city, then I am confident I can break through this Demon Palace and take you away.”

“Good!”

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng agreed without hesitation.

“Hmm???”

Shen Baishuang was stunned when Lu Changsheng instantly agreed. She thought she was hallucinating, and then she was struck by the Six Paths Demonic Consort again, spitting out blood.

“Shen Baishuang, why don’t you just surrender obediently?”

“Besides Zhongli Ming, who has an old grudge with me and is willing to truly act, no one else will come to help you for the small benefits you promised.”

The Six Paths Demonic Consort said with a look of mockery in her eyes, seeing Shen Baishuang still resisting stubbornly.

After speaking, she looked at Lu Changsheng not far away and said, “Fellow Daoist, there’s no need to panic. I’m only interested in a few things on your person. As long as you are willing to obey, I will naturally let you off, and even bestow upon you an Opportunity—”

However, before she could finish her words, she saw Puppets appearing beside Lu Changsheng with a “swish, swish, swish.”

One!

Two!

Three!

Instantly, nine Three-Rank Puppets appeared beside Lu Changsheng.

“Nine Three-Rank Puppets!?”

Even Shen Baishuang and the Six Paths Demonic Consort were momentarily stunned, their expressions surprised and astonished, upon seeing these nine Three-Rank Puppets.

After all, for a Core Formation cultivator to possess a Four-Rank Puppet was already incredibly astonishing.

Yet, he also possessed nine Three-Rank Puppets.

And by their appearance, these nine Three-Rank Puppets were not Low Grade or Medium Grade; they were all High Grade Puppets!

“Interesting, truly interesting…” The Six Paths Demonic Consort’s beautiful eyes swirled with interest.

She hadn’t expected that this Core Formation cultivator before her not only possessed a Ghost Dao Treasure that attracted the White Bone Ghost King and a Puppet with a Ghost Dao Qi, but also so many Three-Rank Puppets.

Even at her level, she was no longer in need of Three-Rank Puppets.

But through these Puppets, it was clear that Lu Changsheng was not simple and possessed top-tier Opportunities!

“Buzz, buzz, buzz!!!”

Before they could think further, the nine Puppets in the field and the Four-Rank Puppet beside Lu Changsheng connected their Qi to each other, forming a profound Formation.
