After dodging my attack, the Fifth Elder glared at me. Then, he flew toward the Serpent Spirit in the air.
Since his action was too sudden, the Serpent Spirit didn't react and landed on his back.
After he reacted, the Serpent Spirit turned its head and wanted to bite him.
However, the Fifth Elder's strength wasn't ordinary. He controlled his body and suppressed the Serpent Spirit at the same time. The Serpent Spirit couldn't get rid of him.
However, his behavior puzzled me, so I didn't rush to attack him. Instead, I focused my attention on his movements.
After a while, he stopped pestering the Serpent Spirit and flew toward the nine Dragon Pillars. After being harassed by him, the Serpent Spirit's eyes were filled with anger. It twisted its body and chased after him.
Seeing this, I furrowed my brows and had a bad premonition.
Sure enough, after the Fifth Elder flew toward the nine Dragon Pillars, he stopped. He seemed to be waiting for the Serpent Spirit to chase after him. There was a strange look on his face.
Seeing this, I cursed inwardly. The Fifth Elder must be plotting something. The position of the nine Dragon Pillars must be unusual.
With that thought in mind, I immediately spoke to stop the Serpent Spirit from chasing after him.
However, the Serpent Spirit was still angry and didn't pay attention to my words. His behavior made my heart tighten.
In a flash, the Serpent Spirit flew in front of the Fifth Elder and opened its big mouth to bite him.
Unexpectedly, an evil smile appeared on the fifth elder's face. In the blink of an eye, he jumped out. At the same time, a ray of golden light shot out from the nine dragon pillars into the sky.
In the blink of an eye, the golden light fell again and wrapped around the nine Dragon Pillars, forming a sealed space.
Seeing this, I had some thoughts. The Fifth Elder had placed Huihui in the middle of the nine Dragon Pillars. Obviously, he wanted to use some method to force the blood out of her body.
Now that the Serpent Spirit was trapped inside, it must be for the same reason.
At this time, the golden light fell again in the sealed space, covering the Serpent Spirit's huge body.
The Serpent Spirit opened its big mouth and glared at the Fifth Elder with its scarlet eyes. Its golden body writhed in the space, looking as if it was in great pain.
However, I didn't hear the roar of a dragon. I couldn't even sense the aura of the Spirit Snake. It seemed that this sealed space could isolate everything. It was really frightening.
This was something that even Enlightened Master Guan's formation could not achieve. Nobody knew what these nine dragon pillars were, but the golden light that they emitted had such power.
While he was deep in thought, the snake spirit inside moved again.
He seemed to sense that the golden light inside was very harmful to him. He no longer looked at the Fifth Elder. Instead, he twisted his body and crashed into the golden barrier.
However, every time he collided with the golden light barrier, there was only a slight ripple on it and there was no further reaction.
That Elder Wu was someone who had lived for almost a thousand years. Furthermore, he was a scheming person, so he would definitely not do anything that he was not confident in.
Since he had lured the serpent spirit into the nine dragon pillars, he was certain that the serpent spirit would not be able to break the golden barrier.
If that was the case, it would be impossible to escape by relying on the snake spirit's power alone.
With this thought in mind, I raised my sword and flew toward the Fifth Elder. Since he could activate the light formation, he must know how to dispel it. As long as I could control him, the serpent spirit would be able to escape.
In the blink of an eye, I arrived in front of the Fifth Elder. I raised the Xuan Yuan Sword and slashed at him.
This time, I didn't send my Dao energy into the formation. Firstly, the Dao energy in my body was almost exhausted, and I couldn't support the Xuan Yuan Sword's consumption. Secondly, the Fifth Elder's body was made of flesh and blood. I was afraid that he wouldn't be able to resist the power of the Xuan Yuan Sword's Dao energy.
If I made the slightest mistake and killed him, no one would be able to dispel the golden light formation.
The Fifth Elder seemed to see through my misgivings. He snorted, and green smoke rose from his hands. He twisted his body and dodged the Xuan Yuan Sword.
At the same time, his hands, which were wrapped in a thick monstrous aura, reached for my neck.
I didn't panic. Instead, I turned around and increased the strength in my hands. I held the Xuan Yuan Sword horizontally in front of my chest in an attempt to block the attack.
In the blink of an eye, the pair of dark green hands pressed on the Xuan Yuan Sword.
The Xuan Yuan Sword was an ancient divine weapon with the power to expel all evils. Even if I didn't use my Dao energy, a monster like him wouldn't feel good if he touched it.
Sure enough, when his hands touched the sword, the thick monstrous aura turned into white smoke and dissipated in the air.
In less than a few seconds, the Fifth Elder let out an anguished wail and immediately retracted his hands. He retreated repeatedly with a twisted and embarrassed expression.
Now that he knew how powerful the Xuan Yuan Sword was, he didn't dare to attack me. He stood where he was and looked at the Snake Spirit from time to time.
His behavior made me more worried about the Snake Spirit, so I also looked at him.
After dozens of seconds, the Snake Spirit was lying on the ground with wounds all over his body. His blood had dyed the ground red, and his bright eyes looked a little blurry.
However, he didn't give up struggling. He trembled and propped up his body, trying to hit the golden barrier again.
I felt sorry for the Snake Spirit, and I hated the Fifth Elder even more. I raised the Xuan Yuan Sword and slashed at him one more time.
This time, he was smart. He didn't want to fight me face to face. Instead, he leaped and flew into the air.
I looked up and chased after him.
The Fifth Elder didn't panic when he saw me chasing him. Instead, he chanted a strange sound.
The rhythm of the sound was almost the same as the one I'd heard when I first arrived here. It seemed he didn't want to waste time with me. He wanted to force the blood out of the Snake Spirit's body as soon as possible.
I didn't dare to hide anymore. I quickly retrieved the Xuan Yuan Sword into my body.
I closed my eyes and moved the witchcraft energy in my Heavenly Veins to my Life Palace. I wanted to use the witchcraft energy transformation technique.
After a few seconds, the Yang Spirit in my Life Palace spat out a thick silver needle. At the same time, a similar silver needle appeared in my palm.
As soon as the silver needle appeared, I felt powerless.
However, I didn't care about it. I focused on the silver needle in my hand.
In the next second, the silver needle was formed. I didn't waste any time and threw it at the Fifth Elder.
The Fifth Elder, who was chanting the spell, seemed to realize that danger was approaching. He stopped chanting and looked at me.
When the thick silver needle left his hand, it separated into hundreds of small silver needles. The Fifth Elder didn't have any room to dodge.
He might have realized that the power of the silver needles wasn't ordinary, but he couldn't dodge them. He turned around and transformed into his original form, trying to use his scales to block the hundreds of silver needles.
I had seen the defensive power of its scales before. However, the power of the Armor Removing Sword that was full of Dao energy couldn't be compared to my witchcraft energy transformation technique. My technique was enough to kill a Yang God Celestial Master at the intermediate stage.
In the blink of an eye, hundreds of silver needles were in front of the giant python.
The giant python seemed to have an idea. It twisted its body and took the initiative to meet the needles.
However, to its surprise, the silver needles weren't blocked by the hard scales. Instead, they all drilled into its body.
It was really a bit whimsical. My witchcraft energy transformation technique had the effect of the Yang God. Moreover, my Yang God was a combination of Dao energy and witchcraft energy. Its strength was comparable to the peak of the Yang God.
After being hit, the giant green python's body became slightly erratic. It swayed in the air for a few seconds before heavily hitting the ground.
When it landed, it returned to its human form. It lay on the ground and kept twitching. Dark red blood kept gushing out of its mouth.
He looked like he was seriously injured, but I wasn't sure if he had any other tricks up his sleeves, so I landed next to him and channeled the remaining Qi in my body into my palm. Then, I slammed my palm on his chest.
After doing all this, the Dao energy in my body was exhausted. My witchcraft energy was also exhausted, and my body was a little weak.
However, I didn't dare to show any signs of fatigue. I had to pretend to be calm. I squatted down and said coldly, "If you don't stop that strange formation, I'll destroy your Yang God."
After listening to me, the Fifth Elder didn't panic. Instead, he smiled and replied weakly, "This Blood Devouring Formation was originally designed for the Dragon Clan. It will never stop unless the blood in its body is forced out.
I just used a secret technique. Just wait to collect the dragon's corpse. "
After that, he didn't say anything else.
I didn't know if he was telling the truth or not. However, after thinking about it carefully, he was like an arrow at the end of its flight. Maybe he wouldn't lie to me.
If that was the case, there was really no way to save the snake spirit.
Thinking of this, I couldn't calm down. However, I was exhausted, so I could only call Tong Tong and ask him to destroy his Yang God.
At this time, the Fifth Elder couldn't move. In terms of strength, he wasn't strong enough to compete with Tong Tong.
When Tong Tong saw my gloomy face, he didn't hesitate. He released pure Yin energy from his hands and pressed them on the Fifth Elder's Life Palace.
At this moment, he had no strength to resist. He let out a low cry, and his body twitched a few times before he lost his vitality.
At the same time, his drifting Yang God was held in Tong Tong's hand.
The Yin energy in Tong Tong's hand became stronger. In just a moment, the Fifth Elder's Yang God disappeared from this world.
After that, I went to the Blood Devouring Formation and stared at the snake spirit inside, frowning.
Although I was angry and anxious, I couldn't save the snake spirit. At this moment, I could only resign myself to fate. I hoped that after the snake spirit's blood was extracted, it would still have a breath left.
While I was thinking, the golden light in the Blood Devouring Formation became brighter. The snake spirit raised its head and slammed it on the ground. It seemed to want to use this self-mutilation to divert its pain.
When Tong Tong saw this, he quietly came over and begged me to save the snake spirit.
