For the moment, Yang Tian didn't have the time to ask in detail why the Demonic Technique was more important to the Witch than her own life.

With the enemy at hand, finding a way to escape was the priority.

"Wang Lingzhan, take President Wang and the three women away from here!"

Yang Tian said, then immediately activated a barrier to envelop himself.

"A barrier?"

Upon seeing the barrier, Wang Lingzhan couldn't help but remember how Yang Tian had also used a barrier inside the palace before transforming into the Witch's appearance.

At this moment, Yang Tian summoned the barrier once again.

Seeing this, Wang Lingzhan immediately activated his Spiritual Breath, leading Wang Ying and the other two women away.

"Courting death!"

The Witch said icily, just as she was about to give chase.

At that moment, Yang Tian spoke coldly, "Witch, do you have the guts to duel with me one-on-one?"

"Oh, really? How overconfident!"

The Witch retorted mockingly, and her jade-like palm struck the barrier on Yang Tian with two powerful slaps.

But to her surprise, her powerful strikes couldn't break Yang Tian's barrier.

She descended, gazing at Yang Tian.

At that moment, Yang Tian sat cross-legged on the ground with his eyes closed, doing something unknown.

Although the Witch was powerful, she couldn't perceive Yang Tian's mental activities, so she didn't know that his soul had already entered the Spiritual Space.

Swish!

Inside the Spiritual Space, Yang Tian released the Witch's crystal coffin.

Gazing into the coffin at the unparalleled beauty, Yang Tian knew that to survive, he had to rely on this crystal coffin.

Just one look at the stunning beauty's face, and a surge of anger rose in Yang Tian's heart.

"Witch, weren't you trying to take my child? Now I'll make you suffer!"

Without hesitation, Yang Tian lunged forward.

He activated his Spiritual Breath, pressing upon the Witch's acupoints, two streams of Spiritual Breath—ice and fire—flowed from his hands, creating a realm of ice and fire upon her acupoints.

Yang Tian attacked relentlessly, with deadly intent.

"Dare to take my child? I'll finish you!"

Yang Tian was no gentleman; he retaliated tenfold against anyone who wronged him.

So this time, Yang Tian attacked without holding back!

At that moment, the Witch's puzzled voice rang out, "Yang Tian, what kind of barrier is this? Is it the Ice and Fire Barrier?"

"The Ice and Fire Barrier?"

Yang Tian sneered coldly.

He thought coldly to himself: I'm pressing your acupoints, tormenting you harshly with both ice and fire, of course you'd feel the alternation of ice and fire.

"Strange, this Ice and Fire Barrier of yours can actually affect me?"

The Witch said coldly.

After all, she was Nuwa's Inheritor, and her power had already recovered to fifty percent.

On this continent, attacks rarely hurt her, yet Yang Tian's barrier alternated ice and fire within her.

This surprised her.

She was about to activate her Spiritual Breath to break Yang Tian's barrier, but then she felt a wave of heat spreading from within her body.

This made her body slightly weak.

"What kind of barrier is this?"

The Witch's expression changed.

She extended her jade-like palm, striking at Yang Tian's barrier.

Bang!

A loud crash sounded; Yang Tian felt his whole body shaking.

He activated his Divine Sense and knew that Wang Lingzhan had already taken Wang Ying and the others to safety, so he immediately withdrew from the Spiritual Space, stood up, and looked at the Witch.

Seeing the Witch's flushed face, Yang Tian chuckled coldly: Witch, even though you're an unparalleled power, so what? When I'm in a bad mood, I can torment your physical form anytime!

When the Witch saw Yang Tian standing up, she discovered the heat and alternation of ice and fire on her body had disappeared.

She suddenly said coldly, "Yang Tian, this isn't about the barrier, you're up to something!"

"Witch, you're quite clever!"

Yang Tian sneered.

"If you don't explain clearly today, I'll make sure you die here!"

The Witch said coldly.

But soon, to her confusion, Yang Tian remained very calm, as if he had everything under control.

"Witch, do you want to know why you felt the ice and fire? Let me tell you, I've already found your true form!" Yang Tian announced loudly, "The crystal coffin is deep within this continent's forest, I can take you there!"

"Really?"

The Witch was intrigued.

After all, she had sealed her true form in the crystal coffin, setting up a self-protection program that even she couldn't locate her true form.

If Yang Tian truly found her true form, she might let him live a few more days.

"Witch, open the passage, I'll take you there!"

Yang Tian said.

"Deal!"

The Witch nodded, opened a rift, and before saying anything, Yang Tian had already slipped inside, and she quickly followed, only to soon realize Yang Tian's figure had vanished within the passage.

This rift was a portal for space traversal.

It could lead to any location on this continent.

Even though the rift was opened by the Witch, she couldn't easily track Yang Tian's whereabouts within it.

After all, inside the rift was the void, where any direction could lead to a specific place.

Not long after, Yang Tian's voice echoed ahead: "Witch, your true form is here!"

The Witch flickered to the deep forest beside a Spirit Lake, where she saw a crystal coffin on the lake, with her true form, the unparalleled beauty, lying inside it.

"Indeed it's here!"

The Witch swiftly flew over.

But discovered that Yang Tian had already hidden in the rift and disappeared.

The Witch didn't care about Yang Tian, heading straight for the crystal coffin, but as soon as she activated her Spiritual Breath upon the coffin, it vanished with a pop.

The Witch frowned.

But she knew, thirty years ago, when she set the self-protection program on the crystal coffin, if it was touched, it would indeed vanish for a short while.

Even she couldn't break that self-protection program in a short time.

But she didn't know.

At that moment, Yang Tian slipped out of the spatial rift, landing on the other side of the continent, and quickly slid forward.

Bang!

Suddenly, a rumbling sound echoed in the Spiritual Space.

Yang Tian activated his Divine Sense to investigate and soon discovered with excitement that the crystal coffin had reappeared in his Spiritual Space.

"Haha! This is amazing, the Witch's self-protection program for the coffin, even she can't touch it without it disappearing. But disappearing just leads it back to my Spiritual Space. Haha, could it be, after tormenting the unparalleled beauty so many times, she's addicted and voluntarily returned to me? Haha..."

Yang Tian laughed loudly, speeding towards Wang Lingzhan's group.

After running for over ten minutes, the Witch's voice echoed from afar: "Yang Tian, you found the coffin, but you dare escape while I checked it? Run all you want, I'll let you live one more day! What I want, I've never failed to obtain! The Demon Embryo can't escape!"

Hearing this, Yang Tian cursed: "Damn! I just want to protect my child, you'll never get it in this lifetime!"

Yang Tian sped forward.

Half an hour later, he caught sight of Wang Lingzhan and the others.

He landed on the ground and quickly asked, "President Wang, how is the child?"

"The child...my child is fine..."

Wang Ying gently touched her abdomen.

"That's good..."

Yang Tian breathed a sigh of relief, just as he was about to ask everyone to leave, he suddenly felt a black aura emitting from Wang Ying's abdomen, an aura only Yang Tian could sense, as it was the Witch's essence.

Even Wang Lingzhan couldn't sense this black aura.

For some reason, a bad premonition rose in Yang Tian's heart.

He recalled the Witch's recent words: "What I want, I've never failed to obtain! The Demon Embryo can't escape!"

The bad premonition grew stronger.

"Yang Tian, what's wrong with you?"

Wang Lingzhan noticed Yang Tian looked troubled and quickly asked.

Yang Tian said nothing, but came to the front of Wang Ying, gently brushing, and instantly, the black aura appeared. Everyone saw this black aura and their faces fell, but soon, they saw something more from Wang Ying's abdomen, causing everyone to gasp: "Oh my God, what is this?"
