Chapter 286: The Power of the Flame Emperor, Forced Fusion!
After leaving the main hall, the numerous powerful figures did not hesitate to head towards the exit of the ruins.
To seize an opportunity, you must first stay alive. The presence of the Combat Saint's skeleton was a terrifying existence that they clearly could not face.
The Combat Saint's skeleton could even execute heavenly-level combat techniques. All of them together were no match for a single technique of that level.
Because Xiao Ze and his group were located in the opposite direction from the entrance of the ruins, those powerful figures did not notice the presence of Xiao Ze and the others.
However, while some managed to escape, others were not so lucky and were caught by the heavenly-level combat technique.
Those who were hit by the Underworld Shadows' surge were shattered, crushed against the walls of the main hall, ultimately merging with the surge of the Underworld Shadows.
Some tried to fly above the wave, hoping to escape the long, ghostly current. But this only delayed their death by a little.
Under the impact of the Underworld Shadows' surge, the imposing deep blue main hall collapsed, leaving ruins.
However, it was thanks to this resilient main hall that the force of the Underworld Shadows' surge was slightly reduced.
Those who managed to escape did not look back as they headed for the exit of the ruins. The heavenly-level combat technique had completely terrified them.
Although they knew that this technique consumed a great amount of energy and that the Combat Saint's skeleton might only have strength for one strike, they didn't want to take the risk.
Xiao Ze saw how the powerful figures from the great forces fled in panic, but decided to trust Sheng Ling and his own Flame Emperor.
Of course, Xiao Ze decided to trust because he had a backup: the golden spatial gem that Xun Er held in her hand. If something went wrong, a Combat Saint from the Gu clan would come to resolve the situation.
After all, as the young lady of the Gu clan, Xun Er's safety was extremely important, and the Gu clan would not allow anything to happen to her.
Seeing the Underworld Shadows' surge continuing to expand, Xiao Ze and his group quickly retreated.
When the surge stopped, all that remained in front of Xiao Ze was a black swamp tens of kilometers wide.
"A single heavenly-level combat technique completely changed the terrain and caused numerous deaths!"
Seeing this, Xiao Ze couldn't help but sigh.
"Sheng Ling, couldn't you pretend to be defeated and voluntarily surrender?" asked Xiao Ze, thinking of using a strategy to make the Underworld Shadows absorb Sheng Ling.
Sheng Ling shook her head and sighed, "If it were that simple... If it sees me, the Underworld Shadows would kill me first and then absorb my energy."
"When its personality changed, the Underworld Shadows wanted to devour me to gain my energy, and the Combat Saint of the Infinite Sea sacrificed himself to imprison it."
"Even if I pretended to want to fuse with it again, the Combat Saint of the Infinite Sea wouldn't allow it."
After hearing Sheng Ling's explanation, Xiao Ze and the others looked at each other, feeling helpless.
After its personality changed, the Underworld Shadows became cruel, giving Sheng Ling no chance to take control, even being much more powerful than her.
"Sheng Ling, could you hide in the Crystal Pearl?" asked Xiao Ze.
Sheng Ling nodded, "But if I don't seal myself, it would be easy for it to find me."
"Don't worry, we will create an opportunity for you to get close to the Underworld Shadows."
Sheng Ling, hearing Xiao Ze's words, bit her lip and then nodded firmly, choosing to trust Xiao Ze.
Under everyone's gaze, her figure transformed into a translucent Crystal Pearl.
Just as Xiao Ze took the Crystal Pearl, a disturbance arose in the distance.
From the ruins of the main hall, an immense amount of dark energy began to emanate, and from the smoke emerged a white jade skeleton.
Initially, the skeleton's gaze was directed at those fleeing towards the exit of the ruins.
However, after emerging from the smoke, it suddenly turned and charged directly towards Xiao Ze and his group.
Feeling the terrifying energy approaching, Xiao Ze said to Xun Er and the others, "Get away from me, the ability I'm about to use doesn't distinguish between friends and enemies."
Xun Er remembered Xiao Ze's poisonous body and nodded. "Xiao Ze, if something goes wrong, I will break the spatial gem immediately."
"Trust me," responded Xiao Ze confidently, sensing them move away.
Xiao Ze's body began to emit a multicolored poisonous mist that quickly enveloped him, creating a space of poisonous mist around him.
The Combat Saint's skeleton did not hesitate and entered this space directly, as there was something it desired.
That which had made it a prisoner and kept it confined for eons.
Originally, the Underworld Shadows had a better solution: turn all those running towards the exit into dark energy to break the Infinite Sea Saint's prison.
But upon sensing Sheng Ling's presence, it couldn't help but head straight for her.
Inside the poisonous mist space, the Combat Saint's skeleton began to emit a sizzling sound.
The calamity poison within the space was the most lethal Xiao Ze could conjure in his current state, and even the Combat Saint's skeleton was not immune.
The Underworld Shadows found a solution: a black, mud-like substance covered its bones, counteracting the poison.
However, once inside the space, it stopped sensing Sheng Ling's presence, making it feel uneasy.
Under Xiao Ze's control, a large number of golden roots from the Tree of Origin appeared next to the skeleton, causing a terrifying reaction.
Against the Combat Saint's strength, the normally indestructible golden roots began to show cracks.
Xiao Ze quickly withdrew them to the origin space, where they were repaired with abundant energy.
Despite the fierce battle, Xiao Ze maintained an advantage in his own space, finally capturing an opportunity.
Covered in poison, he dodged an attack and approached the Underworld Shadows, throwing the Crystal Pearl to an area not covered by the black mud.
In an instant, a golden light enveloped the area, and Sheng Ling's energy also penetrated the skeleton.
A hoarse voice echoed, "Sheng Ling! You dare to come here! Even though my power has diminished, you are still no match for me."
"We'll see about that!" responded Sheng Ling firmly from within the skeleton.
Golden flames began to spread over the skeleton.
"What is this?" asked the Underworld Shadows with panic in its voice.
"Let's fuse again, we are one entity!" Sheng Ling ignored the panic and spoke with determination.
Xiao Ze, seeing the Flame Emperor's power manifest, felt his worries ease. It seemed he could indeed face the Underworld Shadows.
