"People from the Divine Formation Sect, no wonder they dare to come courting death!"
Mu Jinyu glanced up and down at Jiang Song a few times, recognizing him from the Divine Formation Sect based on his attire and certain details.
It was the Hidden Sect that had caused him considerable trouble the other day when he was tasked to kill those eight people.
"Hmph, little bastard, if you have the guts, wait while I break the restrictions, stay right here and don't run!"
Jiang Song stared tightly at Mu Jinyu, his hands paused from breaking the restrictions, and spoke viciously.
Mu Jinyu sneered coldly, saying, "Why bother with such trouble? I'll come out this instant to send you, this old undead, and that sect disciple of yours both on your way!"
"Boom!"
Following his words, Mu Jinyu stepped out. Given his expertise in breaking restrictions, coupled with the fact that Jiang Song had already broken most of the exit restrictions, they collapsed immediately, allowing free entry for a short time.
"Hmph! Seeking death!"
Upon seeing this, Jiang Song's expression remained unchanged, he uttered a harsh remark, yet his heart sank secretly.
At his nephew's dying moments, he didn't witness Mu Jinyu's expertise in restrictions being strong, but he knew Mu Jinyu had some skills if he could hide inside them.
He hadn't expected Mu Jinyu's expertise to surpass his own, possibly only slightly inferior to the great capability of the Divine Formation Sect's sect leader.
However, upon thinking about the Divine Array Map stashed in his storage bag, he felt somewhat relieved and confident.
"Boom!!"
Without any hesitation, Jiang Song immediately took out the damaged Heaven-reaching spiritual treasure he specifically brought, a small purple-gold gourd.
The gourd's material was unique, neither metal nor jade, with an organically formed Bagua Diagram engraved on it, exuding an impressive Dao Rhyme and mystical presence.
"Swish!!"
As Jiang Song channeled his True Yuan, the stopper of the purple-gold gourd unscrewed automatically, aiming at Mu Jinyu, from which silver-white river water cascaded out.
It was like the Nine Heavens Galaxy pouring down upon the mortal world, threatening to unleash a world-ending flood!
This item from the Divine Formation Sect was selected specifically to target Mu Jinyu after considering he wielded the top-grade spiritual treasure, the Bi Fang Cauldron.
The water source inside was one of the world's Nine Divine Waters, Primordial Heavy Water, each drop weighing a thousand pounds!
Even though it seemed akin to a heavenly river cascading down, it was a mere illusion, as Primordial Heavy Water is extremely rare; how could there be such a large quantity?
Inside the purple-gold gourd, there were actually just ten drops of Primordial Heavy Water.
"Buzzing!"
As Primordial Heavy Water poured from the purple-gold gourd, a mist of purple energy also surged out, merging with the Nine Heavens Galaxy, intensifying towards Mu Jinyu!
In secrecy, Jiang Song cautiously took out an array map named Nine Nether Locking Evil Soul Destroying Map!
This array was exceptionally malicious, specifically targeting a person's soul attack, without any defense, even one with heavenly merit, would face its soul scattered, leaving only a shell behind.
"Slash!"
After taking out the Nine Nether Locking Evil Soul Destroying Map, Jiang Song infused his True Yuan into it, causing the array to burst forth like a slicing Sword Qi, instantly cutting through the air towards Mu Jinyu.
He vowed internally: 'If this doesn't kill you, I'll kill myself on the spot!'
Mu Jinyu stepped out from the restricted area and was startled to see the Nine Heavens Galaxy surging forth from the small purple-gold gourd, but he quickly calmed down, casually tossing out the Bi Fang Cauldron which housed the Little Phoenix!
"Buzz!!"
"Boom Boom!!"
The Bi Fang Cauldron twirled a few times in mid-air, then the lid lifted, releasing torrents of flame with world-ending divine might, overwhelming the void, clashing against the Nine Heavens Galaxy.
"Sizzle Sizzle!"
The Bi Fang Flame clashed with the Primordial Heavy Water, generating intense burning and evaporation sounds, both sides consuming each other.
Although the Bi Fang Flame was endless, and with Little Phoenix aiding with the Phoenix True Fire, it still lagged behind the Primordial Heavy Water, one of the Nine Divine Waters.
However, due to the meager amount in the purple-gold gourd, just ten drops in total, the collision between the two is fairly matched.
Mu Jinyu felt relieved and prepared to use the Dragon Soul to drive the dragon's body, aiming to annihilate Jiang Song.
Suddenly, a black light flashed, his vision darkened, and a sharp pain erupted from his forehead, his head seemed split open.
Alarmed, he realized he had been careless and was schemed against.
"Buzz!"
As Mu Jinyu exhausted all means to remove the hidden weapon that had penetrated his Sea of Consciousness.
He noticed that his Sea of Consciousness felt normal, absent of that stabbing pain.
His Spiritual Thought entered the Sea of Consciousness, where he saw a special black paper made from metal floating in front of the mystical little tree in the center, emitting an eerie and sinister aura.
"Was this the thing that nearly schemed against me?"
Mu Jinyu looked at the black paper, his heart filled with fear, realizing the Divine Formation Sect possessed forbidden soul attack artifacts.
If not for the mystical little tree in his Sea of Consciousness, he'd be in grave danger.
Faced with such a sudden soul attack, while he might not die, his soul would likely be split, becoming spirit-divided and insane, unable to resist Jiang Song's assault.
After easing his fear, Mu Jinyu gave the little sapling a complex glance, his heart surged with rage.
Then, he focused, his soul gathered in the Sea of Consciousness, transforming into a golden little figure, resembling a miniature version of himself.
Then, the soul little figure sat cross-legged under the mystical little tree, suppressing his spiritual aura.
Externally, amidst the fierce battle, Mu Jinyu suddenly let out a ghastly scream, his piercing gaze dispersed, his body tensed abruptly, and he toppled straight backward.
"Screech!"
Little Phoenix received Mu Jinyu's cue, emitting a mournful cry, then feigning weakness, retreating backward, yet still protecting Mu Jinyu's body from erosion by the Primordial Heavy Water.
"Hmph, little bastard, you've finally tasted the bitter fruit!"
Seeing this, Jiang Song was internally relieved, his face broke into a cruel grin.
Yet he remained cautious, eyeing the movements of the Bi Fang Cauldron, ensuring there was indeed no Mu Jinyu's True Yuan, only the artifact spirit autonomously protecting its owner.
He then observed Mu Jinyu, sensing no spiritual fluctuation from him, just emptiness as if facing a fresh corpse.
Holding a soul-protection magic treasure, Jiang Song cautiously peeked into Mu Jinyu's Sea of Consciousness, intending to examine his condition.
"Slash!!"
Suddenly, a black lightning struck, not only slicing through his Spiritual Thought but also piercing into his Sea of Consciousness!
"How is this possible? Why are you unharmed? You can still control my array?!"
Jiang Song let out a terrified scream, filled with disbelief, but before receiving a reply, he emitted another more severe wail, and his whole body exploded on the spot!
Turning into shattered flesh, scattering across the sky.
"What sound was that?!"
Inside the Secret Realm, people from the Wu Family and Boundless Sect all heard Jiang Song's scream, their expressions shifted slightly, and they immediately dashed away.
