“Is this the true scene inside the Ghost-Sealing Talisman?”
Xu Taiping looked at the pitch-black space before him, which contained only a massive stone cage, with a face full of astonishment.
Just moments ago, Fairy Lingyue had drawn a few strokes on his hand and chanted a few incantations, and then his vision went black, and he found himself here.
“Yes,” Fairy Lingyue nodded.
“You must be wondering why I didn’t tell you how to control this Ghost-Sealing Talisman in this way, right?” she asked Xu Taiping with a smile.
“It is indeed a bit strange,” Xu Taiping admitted with a nod.
“That’s because, in the end, I am the one who cast this Ghost-Sealing Talisman,” Fairy Lingyue explained.
Xu Taiping suddenly understood.
He then turned his gaze towards the massive stone cage.
Inside the cage, a tall, red-haired old man sat on a stone bed with his head hanging low.
At his feet were two shadowy figures with terrified expressions.
Whenever those shadows tried to escape, the old man would stomp on them heavily, causing them to yelp in pain.
“That seems to be the demonic cultivator’s soul I sealed in the Tai Xuan Sect ruins,” Xu Taiping said in surprise.
“The Demon Blade is merely a wisp of obsession, but his master’s level is far beyond those two demonic cultivator lackeys. It’s normal for him to suppress them,” Fairy Lingyue said, not surprised at all.
“Why isn’t the Demon Blade reacting while we’re talking here?” Xu Taiping asked again.
“The stone cage blocks everything. If we don’t want him to notice, he won’t notice,” Fairy Lingyue said confidently.
After saying this, she snapped her fingers.
With a “snap,” the red-haired Demon Blade, who had been hanging his head, suddenly lifted it and turned to look at Xu Taiping.
The twisted face of spiritual energy suddenly transformed into an old face full of murderous intent.
When he saw Xu Taiping, his cloudy eyes immediately gleamed with sharp light.
“Boy, let me see your Hundred Cicadas Crying in Unison!”
He stood up abruptly, his large hands gripping the bars of the cage with excitement, completely unaware that he and Xu Taiping were not meeting in his blade realm.
“Old man, do you remember me?” Before Xu Taiping could speak, Fairy Lingyue stepped forward and coldly looked at the Demon Blade.
“Boom!”
Almost at the moment Fairy Lingyue’s voice sounded, the Demon Blade’s face exploded, turning back into a twisted wave of spiritual energy, with only two dark eyes visible.
At the same time, he took a cautious step back and, with a “swish,” drew his life-bound blade, Evil Come.
He was clearly ready to fight Fairy Lingyue to the death.
“Why are you still alive?!” the Demon Blade asked, his eyes filled with vigilance as he stared at Fairy Lingyue.
Xu Taiping noticed that the Demon Blade’s state was completely different from when he had tested his blade against him earlier.
“More like a survival instinct,” he thought to himself.
It was clear that Fairy Lingyue’s appearance made him feel a threat to his life, triggering his survival instinct.
“Of course, because I never died,” Fairy Lingyue rolled her eyes at the Demon Blade.
“Let’s settle both old and new scores,” she said, rolling up her sleeves and walking towards the stone cage.
“I am bound by your Ghost-Sealing Talisman, not your match. If you want to fight, release the Ghost-Sealing Talisman!” The Demon Blade’s face reverted to that of an old man, and his eyes became clearer.
“Releasing the Ghost-Sealing Talisman is impossible,” Fairy Lingyue said as she snapped her fingers again. The stone cage, originally only about ten meters square, instantly expanded to hundreds of meters, becoming incredibly vast.
At the same time, Xu Taiping and Fairy Lingyue appeared inside the stone cage.
Seeing this, the Demon Blade grinned.
Then, with a “boom,” his blade realm enveloped both Xu Taiping and Fairy Lingyue.
“Smile, smile, I hate your smile the most!” As soon as the blade realm unfolded, Fairy Lingyue cursed and threw a punch at the Demon Blade.
Because they were in the Demon Blade’s blade realm, the distance between her and the Demon Blade instantly expanded to over a hundred meters before her punch could land.
This was the power of the blade realm; within it, the master could control everything at will.
When he had fought Xu Taiping earlier, the Demon Blade had not bothered to use the power of the blade realm because Xu Taiping was too weak.
But this time, the Demon Blade miscalculated.
Fairy Lingyue’s punch completely ignored the distance between her and the Demon Blade, landing heavily on his head with a “bang,” sending him flying straight back.
But as he flew back, the Demon Blade suddenly raised his hand and grabbed towards Fairy Lingyue.
“Boom!” With a loud crash, the stone pillars around the altar all smashed towards Fairy Lingyue.
Fairy Lingyue’s lips curled into a slight smile, and then she clapped her hands together.
In an instant, a thousand-armed Buddha statue radiating divine light appeared behind her. As the stone pillars came crashing down, the Buddha’s arms all struck out.
With a “bang,” the stone pillars turned to dust.
At the same time, the Buddha’s thousand arms clenched into fists and, like a storm, pounded towards the Demon Blade.
“Clang!” The Demon Blade, who had just steadied himself, raised his life-bound blade, Evil Come, and with a roar, slashed out.
With a “boom,” the shadow of Evil Come, like a mountain, crashed towards the thousands of arms.
The momentum of the Demon Blade’s slash was impressive, but the outcome was tragic.
A thousand arms and a thousand fists first shattered the shadow of Evil Come, then all struck the Demon Blade’s body.
In an instant, the Demon Blade’s body was smashed into a pulp.
But this was his blade realm, where he could be immortal, even if smashed into pulp.
“This is my blade realm. I am the master of this realm, the god of this realm!” The Demon Blade roared as his body instantly regenerated, then he swung his arm down fiercely.
Immediately, two massive millstones, one above and one below, clamped towards Fairy Lingyue.
If she were caught between them, she would be ground into meat paste.
