Chapter 923 Hypnosis
Chapter 923 Hypnosis
Zhao Shisan's sinister smile was still on his face, but the iron chain around his arm was like a venomous dragon emerging from its cave, carrying a chilling aura that could imprison the void and lock up the nascent soul, heading straight for Jing Yu.
The precious mirror in Zhao Shisi's hand also shone brightly, and a soul-stabilizing divine light arrived first, attempting to freeze Jing Yu's soul and body.
The combined attack of the two cultivators from the Cave Heaven was swift as lightning, determined to succeed in one strike.
However, faced with this offensive that would put even a mid-stage cultivator of an ordinary grotto-heaven realm on high alert, Jing Yu simply shook his head.
"Om-!"
A muffled sound reverberated deep within the soul.
Centered on Jing Yu, the entire alleyway, no, the entire sky above Floating Light City, was suddenly swallowed up by an endless expanse of scarlet!
It wasn't a change of light and shadow, but a real, heavy, blood-red river manifesting in the sky. The surging blood waves roared, and thick blood rain fell. Zhao Shisan and Zhao Shisi immediately felt their spiritual energy stagnate.
"What kind of magical power is this?"
Zhao Shisan was horrified. He discovered that the dark alley in front of him had been submerged in a sea of blood, and Jing Yu and the other two had vanished without a trace.
When the soul-stabilizing divine light of the [Mirror of Reflection] held by Zhao Shisi entered the sea of blood, it was truly like a mud ox entering the "sea," without even causing a ripple.
"Rumble--"
A majestic, continuous mountain of bones burst forth from the earth! It was not earth or stone, but countless gleaming white bones, interlocking and connected by vital energy, reflecting the blood river in the sky, transforming this area into a secluded and desolate realm, completely separate from the mortal world—
Blood rivers blot out the sun, slowing down all things; bone mountains suppress the earth, imprisoning the void!
Under the suppression of the external landscape manifested by Jing Yu's Bitter Crossing Body, Zhao Shisan and Zhao Shisi's cultivation at the Cave Heaven level was suppressed by more than 30%.
At that moment, the five highest peaks of the majestic Bone Mountain suddenly shone with five colors of divine light—red, blue, yellow, white, and black—and the doors of the five shrines opened wide!
Five divine lights streaked across the sky like meteors, instantly landing on the sea of blood and transforming into five phantom images of gods whose auras had already reached the early stage of the Cave Heaven realm, surrounding the two Divine Cauldron cultivators.
These five deities share a common origin, their energy is perfectly connected, and they are integrated in offense and defense, resembling a mobile Five Elements Ultimate Formation.
Coupled with the visual suppression from Blood River Bone Mountain, the five deities unleashed their supernatural powers, causing Zhao Shisan and Zhao Shisi to suffer repeated defeats.
"Hold on! He's only at the Nascent Soul stage; he can't sustain such a powerful ability for long!"
Zhao Shisan roared, his true energy surging around him, and his inner sanctum was operating at its limit.
Zhao Shisi gritted his teeth and spat his blood essence onto a long sword in an attempt to retaliate, but it was easily deflected by the wooden stick of the Azure Armored General and its spiritual light was greatly damaged by the flames of the Crimson Robe God.
The attacks from the spirits of the five internal organs were like a violent storm, relentless and continuous.
Five-colored divine light intertwined, and the roar of colliding laws and the sound of shattering spiritual barriers were endless.
"puff……"
Zhao Shisi was the first to give out. A condensed platinum sword aura finally found a flaw, pierced through the nearly shattered protective shield, and severed one of his arms.
Sword energy raged at the wound, making it difficult to heal. The platinum sword energy soon spread throughout his body. Zhao Shisi let out a miserable groan as his entire body shattered. A listless Nascent Soul Dharma Image emerged from his physical body, its aura weakened.
Once the breach is opened, defeat will be inevitable!
Seizing the opportunity, the yellow-robed deity gathered all his strength and delivered a powerful punch to Zhao Shisan's back!
"Crack!"
Zhao Shisan's protective aura completely dissipated, followed by a muffled thud, and his physical body was also destroyed.
Zhao Shisan's nascent soul escaped from the shattered flesh in a panic, his small face filled with fear and despair.
Now, the two Divine Cauldron cultivators are only at the Nascent Soul stage, but the five deities still haven't killed them. Instead, they surround the two Nascent Soul avatars and slowly torture them.
Zhao Shisan and Zhao Shisi were just two ordinary early-stage Cave Heaven cultivators. Even with their physical bodies intact, they couldn't withstand the five organ spirits for more than a short time, let alone with only two Nascent Soul Dharma Forms remaining.
Under this relentless, slow, and brutal attack, the two Nascent Soul cultivators gradually became overwhelmed. The Daoist wounds on their Dharma forms increased, and their auras rapidly weakened.
A quarter of an hour later, the light emanating from their nascent souls dimmed to an extreme, almost transparent, clearly indicating that they were on the verge of exhaustion and their souls were about to dissipate.
Jing Yu then gently waved her hand.
The surging river of blood instantly subsided, the towering mountain of bones sank into the ground, and the five divine phantoms that had displayed their might transformed into five streams of light, returning to Jing Yu's body and disappearing without a trace.
The world returned to its clear state, and the alleys and lanes remained unchanged, as if the devastating scene from just moments ago had never existed.
Yun Xuance and Yang Dingfeng stared in shock and disbelief at Jing Yu's retreating figure.
"Xuan Jing...you..."
"Wait a moment to reminisce, I have something to ask these two."
Jing Yu stepped forward, looked down at the two weak Nascent Soul Dharma Images, her gaze calm and unwavering, but she had already quietly used the Divine Dream Law to gradually hypnotize the Nascent Soul Dharma Images in front of her.
The reason he didn't simply kill the two Divine Cauldron cultivators outright, but instead chose to slowly exhaust them until they were on the verge of death, was to deplete their divine souls.
Once their souls are weakened or even asleep, he can use the [Divine Dream Law] to quickly hypnotize them and extract information without damaging their memories.
Sure enough, not long afterward, the eyes of the two Nascent Soul Dharma Images became dull.
"I ask, you answer," Jing Yu's indifferent voice rang out.
"Who are you two?"
The two Nascent Soul dharma forms seemed to be under control, simply uttering blankly:
"We are guards of the Prince Xian's Mansion of the Divine Cauldron Immortal Dynasty. We were given the surname Zhao by His Highness Prince Xian. We do not have given names, but are referred to by numbers... from one to eighteen, a total of eighteen people, all of whom are at the Cave Heaven level, and are known as the Eighteen Generals of Tingyou Pavilion."
Jing Yu curled her lip: "That sounds nice, but he's nothing more than a servant."
"Why are you here?"
"We have offered the royal decree and have been waiting here for Yun Xuance and Yang Dingfeng to ascend to heaven for more than ten years now."
Jing Yu frowned: "How did you know they would appear in [Floating Light City]?"
"It was Mr. Li, a staff member in the Prince's mansion, who divined it..."
"Mr. Li?"
One of the Nascent Soul Dharma Images said, "Indeed, this Mr. Li is now the chief strategist of His Highness Prince Xian. Although he has only just entered the Nascent Soul stage, his skill in divination is truly remarkable. In terms of divination ability, he is no less than many Cave Heaven cultivators."
"What's this person's full name?" Jing Yu asked.
"Li Huaiyou".
"Li Huaiyou... why does that name sound so familiar?"
Jing Yu raised an eyebrow slightly, then suddenly remembered something, her gaze sharpening:
"Wait, Li Huaiyou... isn't this the Li Huaiyou from the family of Li Fang, the Crown Prince's close attendant?"
