in the cell was a shattered bracelet, along with two piles of ashes.Both elders' faces were very grim. After a look, they became even more certain that the common girl had been saved."If she were resc..."With a crackle and a flash, the black gate blazed with golden electricity. The originally tightly shut doors slowly creaked open."

"It's done!" Luo Yu Xi's face lit up with joy.

And Ye Xuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and also laughed, his whole body drenched in sweat.

'Boom.'

In the midst of a deafening roar, the gate finally swung open completely, revealing a magical scene beyond.

It was a space of somber gray, in the center of which floated a blood-red crystal the size of an egg. It pulsated rhythmically like a heart, sending out circles of crimson ripples that rippled outward from its beating. These ripples swept across the void in all directions.

The crimson crystals were incredibly magical, seeming to possess a spirit of their own. A powerful aura emanated from them.

And on the gray ground of the space, there were countless glittering ancient swords inserted, densely packed, numbering in the tens of thousands!

Those ancient swords trembled slightly, humming with various sounds like laments and cries of pain. Dao after dao of sword energy continuously flowed out from within the myriad swords, flowing towards the blood-colored crystal!

Whether it was Ye Xuan or Luo Yu'xi, they were both shocked. Those ancient swords were all divine weapons, worth a fortune if brought to the outside world.

However, at this moment, the gazes of the two siblings were intensely fixed on the blood crystal floating in the center of the space!

Although they didn't know what it was, the two clearly understood that the blood crystal was undoubtedly a treasure of heaven and earth!

"Brother, what a powerful pressure!" Luo Yu'xi said.

Ye Xuan nodded and said, "My junior sister is waiting for me outside the door."

As he spoke, Ye Xuan drifted into the gray space.

"Come on, brother!" Luo Yuxi exclaimed excitedly.

Ye Xuan smiled, and as he floated into the gray space for ten meters, he felt an invisible pressure surge towards him, stopping his advance.

Ye Xuan let out a soft snort. "The treasures here can only be taken by us."

The combat power of the Nine Heavens Peak in the Shanhai Realm was fully deployed. Ye Xuan, enduring the pressure, continued to drift towards the blood-colored crystal.

Actually, his original cultivation level was already at the True Law Realm. However, within this Star Palace secret realm, he was restricted by the power of heaven and earth, only able to exert the full strength of a Mountain Sea Realm cultivator.

He drifted another ten meters, Ye Xuan's face turned crimson as he resisted the pressure. His speed slowed with each step, which made Luo Yuxi who stood outside the formation gate couldn't help but feel anxious.

Obviously, the blood crystal is pushing back against Senior Brother's approach, and the stronger it pushes back, the closer he gets!

"None can stop my steps!"

Ye Xuan flicked his storage ring, and in his hand appeared a snow-white feathered cloak which he draped over his body.

A surge of mighty martial power poured into the cloak, causing all its snowy feathers to stand on end. With a whoosh, Ye Xuan's figure shot forward twenty meters, leaving him only ten meters away from the Blood Crystal.

However, Ye Xuan's face instantly turned pale as a sheet, and he felt an overwhelming force crashing down on him.

Luo Yuxi's small hands were clenched tightly, a mixture of nervousness and anticipation.

"A bulletproof place, that's all it is."

Ye Xuan gritted his teeth, took out a golden pill, and swallowed it.

"It's the Great Creation Thousand Machines Pill! Senior Brother, you actually used the pill that Master bestowed upon you!" Luo Yu Xi exclaimed.

A grand concoction, the Thousand Machines Pill, is worth millions of stones and incredibly rare. It can evade some of the restrictions of heaven and earth in a short period of time.

Ye Xuan's martial arts aura surged, temporarily recovering to the early stage of the True Dharma Realm. He opened his mouth and said: "Although the Thousand Opportunities Pill is precious, what is it compared to a treasure..."

"Ah…" A proud, long howl. Ye Xuan's long hair danced behind him as his imposing aura shot towards the blood crystal, instantly reaching it.

"Pffft~"

But suddenly, he spurted blood from his mouth, and his face turned a sickly crimson.

The blood-colored crystal radiated a powerful aura, pressing down on him so that his form trembled slightly, threatening to suppress and imprison him.

Ye Xuan slowly reached out his hand, grabbing at the blood crystal in front of him. His movements were slow and measured, like he was handling a thousand jun (a unit of weight).

Luo Yuxi held her breath.

"Got it!"

Suddenly, Ye Xuan smiled and grasped the pulsating blood crystal tightly in his hand.

"Buzz"

The overwhelming pressure vanished instantly. Oddly enough, all the ancient swords within the gray space seemed to dissipate like phantoms, disappearing without a trace!

"This!" Ye Xuan and Luo Yu Xi were startled, but immediately the two siblings were overjoyed.

Could this be an array fortified by thousands of ancient swords!

This further demonstrates the rarity of the Blood Crystal, and with the Blood Crystal held in his grasp, the formation naturally dissipated.

"Brother, we did it! We obtained the ultimate inheritance of this Star Palace!" Luo Yu'xi said happily.

"Well, we..." Ye Xuan smiled and was about to say something, but he saw the blood crystal in his hand, it suddenly flashed with a blood light, an inexplicable and terrifying aura appeared!

Ye Xuan and Luo Xiyu were taken aback. Ye Xuan's eyes widened in terror, and he immediately wanted to fling the blood crystal in his hand away.

It's too late!

"Boom!" A deafening roar erupted as the blood crystal shattered, and a thick, concentrated aura of blood surged out like a tidal wave. Ye Xuan had no time to dodge and was instantly engulfed by the bloody mist.

"Oh my!"

A heart-wrenching scream rose from the impenetrable sea of blood.

"Rob... Rob the soul! Brother!!!"

Luo Yu Xi outside the formation, seeing this scene, thought of something, her face full of disbelief.

"No~~~~, get out of me~~~~, ah, senior sister, kill me!! Quickly!!!" Bloodcurdling screams echoed from the brother's heart.

Luo YuXi's expression was no longer the usual pride, it became flustered, a small blue knife appeared in her right hand.

This azure dagger was bestowed upon them by their master. It contains the power of their master's martial soul, capable of unleashing an attack with strength that is no less than a full-power strike from a Venerable realm early stage expert!

"Hurry! Give me release!!!"

Blood surged within, Ye Xuan's howl of pain echoed through the air. Luo Yuxi was astonished; she hadn't expected her senior brother to encounter a sealed demon. She understood that her senior brother was beyond saving.

A small blue knife flew out.

Luoyu Xi knew, now was the time to strike while the demon possessed her senior brother, or she would be in danger soon.

"You dare to possess my fellow student Come die!"

Luo Yu Xi points with one finger.

The azure blade suddenly burst with a brilliant blue light, carrying the power to destroy heaven and earth, slashing towards the blood-qi within.

But what made her eyes widen was that the azure dagger, when thrust into the surging blood mist, caused no ripples at all.

Even more astonishingly, as if struck dumb with disbelief, the surging qi within her swiftly retracted, collapsing inward and vanishing. In its place, the figure of "Big Brother" materialized.

At this moment, 'Ye Xuan' had bloodshot eyes and a terrifying, sinister smile on his face. In his hand, he held the small blue dagger.

"Hehehe~, if it were truly a strike from a Venerable Realm expert, this Blood Demon would still be wary. However, within this small world..."

Ye Xuan's eerie and sinister smile, his shoulders twitched slightly, and with a flick of his palm, there was a 'crack' sound as the small green knife was crushed in his hand.

"So fast to complete the possession!"

Luo Yu Xi's scalp tingled, she didn't even think, turned around and panicked, walking around the surface of the pond.

Ascending the steps, she hurled numerous talismans from her hand, causing them to explode into fiery orbs that resembled meteors, raining down upon those behind her.

"Hee hee, before the Blood Demon, no one can escape."

Ye Xuan's eerie smile, his figure moved, turning into a rolling river of blood, engulfing the densely packed fireballs, sending chills down everyone's spine as it surged towards Luo Yuxi.

Luo Yuoxi's body trembled in terror as peacock shadows flew out from within her, charging towards the surging blood river below. But in the next instant, her vision turned red, and she was engulfed by the relentless tide of blood.

"Ah~~~~! Spare, spare me, I...I can be your servant..."

In the surging river of blood, a young girl's desperate pleas echoed, growing fainter and fainter until they vanished completely.

At the next moment, the surging river of blood converged, revealing a young man with a blood-red cloak. In his hands, he clutched the head of a girl, half severed.

"Crunch, crunch..."

The Blood Cloak Youth chewed something in his mouth, a horrifying sinister smile spreading across his face: “Or shall you offer your soul blood to me instead”

As soon as the words left his mouth, he lowered his head and took a bite on the girl's porcelain-like neck.vate the nation and bring ruin to it.She placed a pale, slender hand on the soul-testing pillar.
