The woman in red cast a hateful glance at the group of fools, tossing the bell in her hand. As it floated in the air, it rang automatically, dispersing the incoming Blood Qi in an instant.

In a flash, she charged towards the Blood Qi sphere hanging at the center of the ritual formation, her figure enveloped by the expanding shadow of a blood lotus.

Seeing this scene, the Sect Master of the Wind Sword Sect understood the situation clearly.

This was the Holy Church's final ritual, and this Holy Mother was undoubtedly real.

The Sect Master of the Wind Sword Sect quickly drew his sword to provide support, followed closely by several Golden Core elders. Their flying swords swiftly unsheathed, splitting into dozens and madly attacking Chu Xingchen.

Chu Xingchen didn't hesitate, quickly controlling the Blood Qi in the area to attach to Yaoqin:

"Absorb the Blood Qi."

Upon hearing this, Yaoqin didn't hesitate, quickly dispersing her Spiritual Shield, allowing the Blood Qi to cling to her body. She soon felt that the attached Blood Qi could be manipulated at will, continuously providing a surge of extremely violent energy.

This greatly alleviated the pressure on Yaoqin's Spiritual Power.

However, Yaoqin's cold expression combined with the Blood Qi entwining her made her appear even more like an Evil Cultivator than Chu Xingchen.

Quickly swallowing a healing pill, Yaoqin dashed forward, her longsword once again gathering Spiritual Power, with the surrounding Blood Qi rapidly attaching to it.

With a cold shout, Yaoqin charged towards the four Wind Sword Sect Golden Core members rushing to aid.

The Heaven's Evolution Pure Sword, enhanced by Blood Qi, was swung once more.

Originally pure and cold, the Spiritual Power now carried boundless Blood Qi, and with one swing, it exuded an endless bloody aura.

If the basic version of the Heaven's Evolution Pure Sword had a pure, cold sharpness, then the enhanced version had a wild, unstoppable force.

The violent energy scattered freely, causing the rock walls to crack rapidly.

Facing the overwhelming force of the sword, the four from the Wind Sword Sect dared not be careless. The Blood Qi within them erupted, redirecting their longswords towards Yaoqin.

Chu Xingchen glanced over, seeing that Yaoqin could hold on for a while longer, and without hesitation, he also charged towards the Blood Qi sphere.

No matter what the woman in red intended to do, as long as it didn't go her way, it was a win!

If you can't even compete with me for the Blood Qi, then this sphere is mine too!

The Spirit Sword in Chu Xingchen's hand suddenly emanated a bloody aura. Although Li Yingling's proficiency in Divine Abilities was higher than Li Xingtian's, after matching the Blood Qi, he found that Li Xingtian's Divine Abilities, though somewhat unrefined, seemed to naturally suppress these Blood Qi.

In any case, whichever works better, use that.

With dark red, violent Spiritual Power enveloping the Spirit Sword, Chu Xingchen's Golden Core spun rapidly within him. With a shout, the Spirit Sword gathered dark red Blood Qi.

This sword easily shattered the resistance of the blood lotus shadow, directly entering it.

Without hesitation, Chu Xingchen injected Spiritual Power into it—whatever this thing was, seize it first!

But this process wasn't easy, as the blood lotus continued to resist Chu Xingchen's invading Spiritual Power.

However, with the suppression of his cultivation technique and the peak strength of his Immaculate Golden Core, Chu Xingchen was still able to push his Spiritual Power in.

Next... bring it over here!

Li Xingtian's cultivation technique operated frantically, swiftly stripping the woman in red of her control. Just a little longer, and this sphere would be entirely Chu Xingchen's.

Facing the current situation, the woman in red was filled with helplessness. If she continued to hold out against this kid, she would surely suffer.

In desperation, the blood lotus burst with brilliant light. Afraid to use Blood Qi again, fearing it would be seized by Chu Xingchen.

A dignified Evil Cultivator, forced not to use evil arts.

The power of her Nascent Soul erupted suddenly, and a petal fell from the blood lotus, hurtling towards Chu Xingchen.

After all, the woman in red was at the Nascent Soul level. Seeing this, Chu Xingchen didn't dare to test the power of this move and quickly retreated.

Using this move to force Chu Xingchen back, the woman in red could no longer maintain her state and fell rapidly from mid-air.

As the blood lotus ceased to envelop, Chu Xingchen looked up to see the Blood Qi-clad sphere dissipating, revealing a raggedly dressed little girl of about five or six years old, with Blood Qi pouring into her body from all around.

The dark red Blood Qi had already spread across her entire skin, making her appear as if she were turning into a blood person.

Or rather... she was transforming into a blood person.

When Chu Xingchen scanned her with his divine sense, he found her entire body extremely fragile, her bones and muscles nearly turned to blood.

This Holy Embryo was likely a child meeting certain conditions, re-refined with Blood Qi, reconstructing her roots, and reborn as an embryo.

The child's heartbeat was already extremely weak, indicating that the ritual was nearing its end.

But there was no time to deal with this now. Chu Xingchen first raised his hand, directing the surrounding Blood Qi towards Yaoqin to relieve her pressure.

The woman in red took a deep breath and angrily questioned, "Which Evil Cultivator are you from?!"

The Spirit Sword in Chu Xingchen's hand was once again enveloped in dark red Spiritual Power, its power rapidly rising, the remaining Blood Qi condensing onto himself. In an instant, he was upon the woman in red.

With the Spirit Sword in hand, carrying boundless might, he slashed down at the woman in red.

The advantage is mine! Only a fool would give you time to delay!

The woman in red let out an angry shout, the bell at her side quickly moving to block.

At this moment, the woman in red was already unable to continue protecting the surrounding ritual from harm. As the two clashed, the massive residual force of Spiritual Power swept through everything.

The power was so great that even Yaoqin and the others on the other side were affected, all using Spiritual Power to resist the aftermath.

The woman in red looked in horror at the Holy Embryo still suspended in mid-air, only to find that the six cauldrons of Blood Qi were still under the control of the ritual, maintaining their effect, keeping the extremely fragile Holy Embryo safe and sound.

Seeing this, she had just breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Chu Xingchen free his right hand, terrifying Blood Qi frantically condensing, seemingly ready to strike the extremely fragile Holy Embryo directly.

But this was Chu Xingchen's feint. At this moment, the Blood Qi he was actually controlling was not aimed at attacking the Holy Embryo.

As the woman in red was about to interrupt Chu Xingchen's actions, she suddenly felt a chill from behind.

And the Sect Master of the Wind Sword Sect's shout of warning:

"Watch out!"

She instinctively raised her hand to block, but soon that chill pierced through her Spiritual Shield, striking directly at the woman in red's body!

Clang!

A longsword swiftly pierced through the woman in red's chest. She glanced sideways to see Yaoqin forming a hand seal, her gaze coldly fixed on her.

And behind Yaoqin, a thick wall of Blood Qi shielded her from the attacks of those four useless Wind Sword Sect members.

As expected... these people only cause trouble!

As this thought flashed through the woman in red's mind, the longsword flashed once more, piercing her body again.

Chu Xingchen let out an angry shout, frantically mobilizing all the power of his Golden Core within.

Strike while she's down, finish her off!

With a fierce slash, he cleaved through the blocking bell, and Chu Xingchen immediately followed up with another wave of Spiritual Sword Qi, completely slicing the woman in red's body in half.

Boom!

The explosive, violent Sword Qi, after thoroughly shattering the woman in red's body, still carried terrifying residual power, crushing everything and opening another door in the cave.

As Yaoqin recalled her Spirit Sword, the wall of Blood Qi was also dispersed.

The four from the Wind Sword Sect were about to step forward to fight again, only to find the Holy Mother had already turned into a puddle of mush, scattered everywhere.

Chu Xingchen, holding his Spirit Sword, and Yaoqin both stared coldly at the four from the Wind Sword Sect.

Without much hesitation, the Holy Mother was dead, the plan had failed.

Even if they won the bloody battle, it was meaningless, not to mention... they might not even win.

The four from the Wind Sword Sect didn't even bother to discuss, acting in perfect unison.

Without hesitation, they turned and ran.
